Barren Rock City is not a bustling place with people coming and going. Compared to outsiders, it is an isolated world. As its name suggests, Barren Rock City is located in the Urines Mountains on the Moratima Plateau, hidden in the Rising Sun Peak, cut off from the mountains.
Among the peaks such as Bone Ridge. The average altitude there is more than 5,000 meters. It is very cold and desolate. The place where the city is located is even more barren mountains and gravel. It is said that Huangyan City is not the current name, but it existed a long time ago. Huangyan City
It is not a new building, but built on an ancient site, while maintaining the overall original appearance of the old site.
When Bing Zhixie came here, it was already snowing heavily. The snow covered the plateau and froze the water into ice springs, but there were warm springs emerging from the ground flowing through the cold frozen soil. If someone hadn't led the way, he would have really
It is difficult to find the location of Barren Rock City among the chaotic peaks. It is so deserted and there is not a single weed to be found. Only occasionally can you see the snakes crawling from the high mountain areas crawling through the cracks in the rocks.
Alice, an energetic person, is exhausted even after climbing here. The thin air makes it difficult to breathe. This place is no better than Shuiyunzhijian. Although Shuiyunzhijian is high in altitude, there are many plants in the stream.
The air is very full.
"Ahead is Barren Rock City." Jennifer pointed to the light behind the low ridge in front: "You can see it after passing the hillside in front."
It was already night at this time, the snow had stopped, there were thin stars hanging in the sky, and the snow on the ground was not deep. Jennifer, Bing Zhixie and others were carrying backpacks and luggage, walking on the messy and harsh gravel.
On the way, we headed up the hillside. Along the way, Bing Zhixie and Alice took turns taking care of Sufina. Seeing her crazy look, they both lost their smiles.
"Is this Barren Rock City?"
A beam of green light shoots straight towards the sky and slowly fades away. The green light is emitted by a large building with many houses densely surrounding it. Next to it, there is a very tall pillared castle.
A few hundred meters away, there are dots of lights in the city, and there are also dense lights below the city. In addition to these two population gathering places, there are also some population gathering areas scattered in the surrounding mountains. They are all stone buildings, with a few stars shining through in the night.
"Wow, it's amazing that there are so many people living in this place." Alice was extremely impressed, but she immediately thought of a question: "Are there so many people living here? How do they live? The neighborhood is desolate.
There’s nothing, where can I get food?”
Jennifer said with a smile: "Barren Rock City has a logistics supply department that specializes in transporting food. Every season they go to various places to purchase a large amount of food."
"Don't you find it troublesome? You have to walk a long way to bring the food here," Bing Zhixie said.
Jennifer said: "No, our food is transported by air. We can transport the food up in the fastest way and reduce losses."
"Air transportation!" Alice was surprised. It is not an organization that can transport a large amount of materials here by air. Even cities can do this, let alone on such high altitude plateau mountains.
The requirements for flying transport monsters are very high.
The group continued walking a few steps forward, and Bing Zhixie saw many ruins of ancient buildings nearby. He had heard from Jennifer and the others that this place was built on ancient buildings, so he was curious and took a few more looks.
When they reached the foot of the high city wall, the guards on the city shouted: "Who is below?"
"It's me Jennifer, Corpse Fly Squad." Jennifer replied.
After a while, several people came down from the city. After confirming their identities, they asked the guards on the city wall to lower the drawbridge and open the city gate.
The heavy suspension bridge was lowered and the thick city gate was opened. Alice followed the corpse fly team behind and looked around and said: "The management here is so strict, it's like a military camp area."
Bing Zhixie supported Sufina, who had temporarily calmed down, and carefully helped her across the bridge into the city, fearing that if he moved too loudly, she would be irritated.
In fact, Barren Rock City is not well-known in the world. Very few people know about it. Even if they have heard of it, they don’t know much about it. Generally speaking, people in the city will not easily bring outsiders here.
, but it was related to the Sand Temple, so Jennifer had no choice but to take a risk and bring them here, because she might be punished and reprimanded for doing so, such as not being allowed to eat for two days.
When I entered the city, I found that the atmosphere in the city was far less strict than what I saw outside the city. The air was relaxed and happy, no different from ordinary cities. There were also special patrols patrolling the streets to maintain the
Order in the city.
Jennifer asked her companions to respond first, then turned to Bing Zhixie and the others and said, "I will find a place to settle you first. I will send a message for you and inform the city guard of your intention."
Alice said: "Thank you very much, please lead the way."
The place where they were placed was a welcome hall, because few people came to Barren Rock City, so although there were various shops and restaurants in the city, there was no hotel. Sofina was settled and she was given medicine to calm her mind.
Taking too much medicine is not good, it will affect the brain's IQ, and long-term use may lead to dementia. But Sufina's condition is serious, and there is nothing that can be done.
Bing Zhixie coaxed Sufina to sleep by the bedside, sighing in her heart that that sunny teacher could be reduced to such a state.
Although it was dark, it was still early. Bing Zhixie wanted to go out for a walk to understand the situation in the city, and asked Alice to take good care of Sufina.
Alice also wanted to go out and have a look, but now she is not as willful as before, so she obeyed the master's words and stayed at the Yingbin Hall.
Nothing happened all night, and the next day the city guard sent someone to see them. Bing Zhixie asked Alice to support Sufina and went with the people who came to invite them.
The city guard was in the tallest pillar-shaped castle. Bing Zhixie went up the circular corridor outside the castle. Halfway up, he glanced down from the wall door to the bottom of the city. From here, he could see the entire area below.
A panoramic view of the city.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! The city guard did not stay at the top of the castle. No one would want to live at such a high place. Bingzhixiejian was in a hall in the middle area.
When he arrived at the city guard, he had heard Jennifer and the others introduce this city guard before. He was a seventy-seven-year-old man named Salu Germeni. His hair and beard were already gray.
He has thick eyebrows, a very thin face, and wears a long red magic robe with patterns. He looks very tall, but in fact he is about 1.8 meters tall, which is about the same as an average tall person. Bing Zhixie also heard that he
There is a nickname called "Kuroshio", and he is good at water magic.
When Germeni saw Bing Zhixie and others arriving, he glanced at Sufina first and asked, "Is this the patient?"
"Yes sir." Bing Zhixie said with a greeting.
Germeni didn't say much. He separated his left and right hands, and ignited a ball of air with his palm upwards. The purple and green colors gathered together and hit Sofina. Sofina was trapped by the air current, but there was nothing unusual. Germeni
Relying on the connection of the magic air flow, he penetrated into Sofina's body and observed her internal and mental state.
After a short while, he withdrew his magic power and said, "I understand her condition, but I can't cure her."
Bing Zhixie was startled, but she didn't expect that he said it so simply and neatly.
Alice was a little angry and said with a puffed face: "Can you clearly see the condition in such a short period of time? Don't fool us and try to send us away."
Germeni glanced at Alice and ignored her, but said: "Just because I said I can't heal it doesn't mean that Wild Rock City can't heal it. What I'm good at is internal and external injuries, and the mental system is not my strong point. With her
Only the Lord of this city can cure mental trauma."
Bing Zhixie asked: "I heard that the city lord is away. I wonder how long it will take for him to come back? I hope I can stay here and wait for him to come back."
Germeni said: "You are lucky, the city lord will come back in a few days at the latest. You can stay at the Welcome Hall and continue to wait."
Bingzhixie was excited: "Thank you, Lord City Guard."
Germeni said: "Don't be in a hurry to say thank you. Let's talk about the reward for treating your friend first."
Bing Zhixie was well prepared and said: "Cheng Shou, please tell me. I wonder what conditions can be used to treat my friend?"
Germeni waved his hand and called the people below and said: "Take this patient away first and don't let anyone come near."
"Yes." Suicong, a man and a woman, helped Sufina from Bing Zhixie's hand and left.
"Hey...where are you taking Teacher Sufina?" Alice was a little worried that they would just take her away.
Germeni saw their worries and said: "You don't have to worry, my people will take good care of her. If you don't trust me, you can take the patient away from here."
Bing Zhixie told Alice to be silent and asked: "City Guardian, please state your conditions." He knew that the reward required by Huangyan City would definitely not be money. With the scale and manpower of this city, what they wanted to do
There are many ways to make money, and there is no need to use this method. If you treat others' diseases that others cannot cure, you will definitely gain greater benefits.
Germeni said: "First, I heard from Jennifer that you have a similar purpose to them, and you are also looking for the ancient tomb of Phoecanian Glonas."
"yes."
Germeni said: "I hope that if you have a conflict of interest with them in this matter, you must give priority to them."
"Okay, I promise you." Bing Zhixie said without hesitation.
Alice was a little surprised and looked at the master. This meant that if there really was a Dragon Zero in Glonas or the Sand Temple, and Sandstone City wanted it, then the master would have to give it to them unconditionally.
Germeni continued: "Second, you must contribute yourself to let us study. Including your body and soul, as well as your magical ability."
Bing Zhixie was startled, frowned and said, "Study on me?"
Germeni said: "I know you, Celeste Bingzhixie, you should have been killed in the incident two years ago, but you suddenly came back to life, so I am very interested in you and want to know
Tell me how you did it and what secrets you hide."
Bing Zhixie hesitated. It wasn't that he couldn't bear to part with him, but that their purpose was too naked. Once they were allowed to study his body, understand his spiritual consciousness, and know his magical strength, all his weaknesses would be revealed.
will be fully exposed to them.
Bing Zhixie thought twice and said, "I can agree. But how are you going to study me?"
Germeni raised a finger and said: "Within one month, I will completely hand over your body to you and let it be manipulated without resistance. I also promise that I will never hurt you."
"Okay!" Bing Zhixie responded.
"Master!" Alice is not stupid. He can hear the other party's intentions. Master has no reservations about this promise and has no trump cards.
