On the evening of the third day, Wood, guided by the dancer and others, came to a ruined site.
The ruins in front of him are very huge. Based on the scale, this ruins should have been a large county town in the past. Because the Dark Night Empire has no map, Wood doesn't know where it is.
However, under the explanation of the dancer and others, the city in front of them was formerly called Undercity. It was a county of the Shadow Empire. There were millions of people living here. However, during the war that year, it was destroyed by the Magic Empire.
It was destroyed, but the ruins of the city have been preserved.
Looking at the city wall in front of me, there are cracks and collapses everywhere. The now-standing wall is full of dilapidated scenes, and there are weeds everywhere on the edge of the city wall. Taking a deep breath, I feel like I can feel the smell of blood, and there is still misery in the middle.
A little bit of fluctuations after the magic explosion, and a black bird occasionally flying in the sky, gave the ruins an even more desolate atmosphere.
Everyone walked into the ruins of the Dark City and passed through the broken city gate. The entire city was covered with weeds and there were collapsed or roofless buildings everywhere. However, the streets that could be passed were very narrow. It seemed that there were many buildings everywhere in the Shadow Kingdom.
It's such a narrow street.
At this time, it was already dark. Wood looked at the desolate ruins around him and said:
"Are we staying here tonight?"
When a mercenary was about to speak, the dancer quickly winked, and the companion who was about to speak shut his mouth in a daze. Although this scene was not easy to detect, and it was done with his back to Wood, with Wood's perception, it was easy
Only one scene was discovered.
"Boss, we will spend the night here today, and we will continue on our way tomorrow."
Wood frowned and responded, then looked around, and then walked into a ruins.
Seeing Wood leaving, the dancer glared at the other mercenaries, and then communicated in code:
"You're stupid! Have you forgotten all the rules of killing the capital?"
"Boss, he is the boss after all, and we are already here, there is no need to lie to him!" said a big man.
The dancer continued:
"After all, he is a foreigner, and the purpose of coming to Shadu is not clear. We brought him here, but it's okay to let it go. The rules are the rules after all."
The crowd dispersed while talking in code, while Wood used his mental power to observe the dancers and the group behind the wall. After the dancers and others walked away, Wood sighed and said:
"It seems they really are hiding something from me."
At this time, the soul body came to consciousness and said:
"Aren't you afraid?"
Wood sat down with a smile and said:
"I'm really not afraid, I just don't want anyone to lie to me."
The soul body changed the subject and said:
"Do you still remember the secret technique I taught you at the goblin ruins?"
Wood replied casually:
"Remember, what happened?"
The soul body continued:
"If you cast it once, you will find some useful information, which is very interesting!"
Since the soul body said so, Wood didn't talk nonsense. After all, the soul body always pointed out Wood like this. Let's talk about it. Let Wood guess other things by himself!
Wood calmly entered a meditative state, and his consciousness slowly covered the entire city. As time passed by, a smile appeared on Wood's lips.
"So this is the killing capital!" Wood said casually as he opened his eyes.
The soul body smiled and explained:
"From what those people said, foreigners must be blindfolded if they want to enter. I guess they want to blindfold you tomorrow and then take you to the entrance."
Wood stood up and left, but said:
"No, since I already know, I don't need them."
Wood strolled along the streets of the ruins of the Undercity. When he passed the residence of the dancer and others, Wood curled his lips and left a money bag, and then continued to move forward. When he reached the middle of the Undercity, there was a huge square.
, there is an abandoned fountain in the middle.
Wood walked to the fountain. After moving the jet port, the pool revealed an underground passage.
In fact, if Wood wants to enter this killing place, he doesn't have to bother so much. He can just sink directly with the earth escape technique. However, Wood wants to go through the main entrance once to see the effect. On the way here, he heard those people often say, "Killing is all magic."
En is the most complicated city in the continent. Without acquaintances to guide you, it is easy to get lost in the corridors of the capital."
The more these people said this, the more Wood wanted to try. After opening the entrance, Wood walked directly in. It was pitch black and he couldn't see his fingers, but this darkness had no effect on Wood at all.
In fact, the entire Shadow Kingdom gives Wood the feeling of darkness. No matter it is day or night, there is a dark atmosphere everywhere in the entire Shadow Kingdom. Even when walking on the official road, the sunlight is blocked by the towering woods.
No light can come in.
But one thing can be admitted, this Shadow Kingdom is indeed a mysterious country. It seems impossible to walk around this country, because no one can find cities or villages. Walking here completely depends on luck.
The dark corridor was very long and narrow, and Wood walked for a long time without seeing the end. However, through Wood's induction, he could clearly feel the breath of life, which meant that he was about to enter the city.
After walking in circles for a while, light finally appeared in front of him, and Wood tightened his hermit robe tightly and walked quickly towards the light, but just when Wood was about to step out of the dark corridor,
The soul body hurriedly conveyed consciousness:
"Wait, there's poisonous gas!"
Wood took back his steps to go out and waited for the soul body's next words. This was the tacit understanding between Wood and the soul body. After a while, the soul body said:
"Everywhere in this city is filled with poisonous gas. Most people can't detect it, and the poisonous gas is not very harmful to the body. However, only people who live here all year round have no problem. If it's your first time here, don't try it casually.
, will affect your fighting spirit."
Wood nodded. What the soul said meant that there was no big problem with the poisonous gas, but he hoped he would not take risks.
And Wood sat directly here, sent out mental exploration, and found that the entire underground city was very large, no weaker than the Undercity above. It seemed that the builders spent a lot of effort building this place.
However, although this city is large, its popularity is relatively low, comparable to that of Dalaran.
Wood opened his eyes and asked puzzledly:
"What's the point of this killing city?"
The soul body was also puzzled and said:
"I don't know, but I can be sure that if you mess around here, you won't be able to escape. The people here are all high-level practitioners, and they are all at the same level as you."
Of course, Wood also discovered this. The dancer told him at the beginning, "In Killing City, only high-level practitioners are eligible to live, and only gold-level practitioners are eligible to enter."
Now it seems that this sentence is not false at all, and it is qualified. It is probably the barrier method for this poisonous gas.
Thinking of this, Wood thought that there should be a way to solve the poisonous gas, otherwise what would the people living here do? Wood was even more conceited and believed that even if there was no way to shield the poisonous gas, he could come up with this solution.
But the soul body said disdainfully:
"It's a good idea, but you are not an assassin. The poisonous gas here harms everyone who is not an assassin's fighting spirit. This means that if you can deeply understand the operation and release process of assassin's fighting spirit, you can not care about this poisonous gas."
Wood was speechless now. This is what feelings mean! Who researched this broken place and this poisonous gas? It’s really damaging!
The soul body smiled and said:
"Okay, stop complaining and use the soil stealth technique! There are simple ways to do it. I don't even know how to say you're better."
In fact, Wood didn't want to use the earth escape technique at all, because he wanted to see what this killing city was like. After using the earth escape technique, he wouldn't be able to see it with his own eyes, but there was nothing he could do about it.
But in this case, Wood stopped pretending, cast his earth escape technique, and the figure disappeared into the passage.
Wood was wandering aimlessly underground. In addition to finding some people, he also discovered a poisonous pool, which was used by assassins to smear their weapons. If the soul body hadn't stopped it quickly, Wood would have entered this poisonous pool.
.
But while Wood continued to wander, a conversation between two people caught Wood's attention.
