Cotton-like ash is flying in the sky, which makes this place less than one hour of light every day. Even so, green grass is still stubbornly coming out of the cracks in the rocks. As long as it is not destroyed, it must continue to live.
A tall figure wearing slightly burnt black armor and a short cloak behind him was walking. Every step he took would bring up choking ash, but he missed this feeling a little.
The old knight pressed the armor on his chest. The feeling of the bulging fragments of the scroll inside made his body pain seem to lessen. He was once a knight, until later, everything he owned was taken away.
The old knight is different from the Lord of the Burning Sun. He does not have lofty ideals. Looking for fragments of scrolls to repair the ancient city is not his ideal or responsibility. It is just someone who expects it, and he does not know why he lives.
The long-standing expectations and trust of the residents of the ancient city made the old knight feel the responsibility of returning. For a moment, he felt that he was a knight again, although it was only for a moment.
Thinking of this, the old knight's pace quickened a bit. Seeing the ancient city getting closer and closer, he felt a little more lonely. He was going to sleep here forever.
Following the city gate, the old knight walked into the ancient city. The buildings in the ancient city were extremely dilapidated, with cracks all over the buildings. The streets were empty and looked depressed.
The old knight was not surprised. This was the case in the ancient city. People here spent most of the time sleeping. Only in this way could they survive in this place where supplies were scarce.
After looking at the sun in the sky, it was not dim and had no black spots. After confirming this, the old knight felt relieved. The ancient city was still the same as before, but all this will change today. This place will become a paradise, without madness or beasts.
Having plenty of food and clothing, living and working in peace and contentment.
After that scene appeared in his mind, a smile appeared on the old knight's face. He stopped next to a bronze bell, took out the baton from the bell frame, and smashed it.
When~
The sound of the bell spread throughout the ancient capital, awakening the people here. Repairing the ancient capital was not something the old knight could do alone. Even if he had enough scroll fragments, he would need the help of many people and it would take more than a month to repair it.
.
After the bronze bell passed, the surrounding area was still quiet, which gave the old knight a sense of foreboding.
The sound of footsteps came from diagonally behind. The old knight looked and saw a half-human, half-wolf monster wearing tattered clothes and black hair, walking towards him step by step.
"Sir, you are back. We... have been waiting for a long, long time."
The half-wolf monster limped forward, holding a stained wood-chopping ax in its hand.
"Lord Knight, have you brought back the canvas fragments? We seem to be...sick."
A half-human, half-wolf monster in women's clothing walked over, with mottled blood stains on its skirt and half of its shriveled eyeballs.
"Grandpa Knight, I...I'm scared."
A little girl wearing a light pink camisole walked over. Her fair, slender little arms were covered with ugly black bristles. The black of the bristles was particularly dazzling against the whiteness of her skin.
The little girl raised her head as she walked forward. Her face was covered with black cuticles, and her pupils were turbid brown, trembling and restrained.
"roar!!"
The little girl suddenly rushed forward, her two claws pierced the old knight's shoulders, her mouth full of fangs, bit the side of the old knight's neck, the fangs penetrated the armor with a crack, and blood leached out.
The old knight stood where he was, with a small face and the face he saw flashing in his mind.
"I've kept you waiting for so long. I'm back."
The old knight hugged the little girl biting him with one hand, and his other hand grasped the hilt of the big sword behind his back.
In the ancient city, countless beast-turned-humans emerged from underground wells and swarmed towards the bronze bell from all directions. Looking from the sky, this scene was both spectacular and terrifying. This place had already fallen.
The knight returns, but unfortunately, those who trusted him are no longer here.
…
The main painting world is in the asylum hall on the second floor of the castle.
Su Xiao's negotiation with the slick tenant No. 2 was not smooth. This guy knew a lot of things, but he always said half of what he said.
Su Xiao wouldn't care if this guy didn't say anything. These people were not related to him, so it was normal not to say anything, but this idiot said half of what he said.
Sister Dian Dao said tactfully that she could make the oily man feel uncomfortable.
Sister Din Dao’s main job is to serve the eldest lady, and her side job is to deliver meals to Tenant No. 2, Tenant No. 3, Tenant No. 4, and Tenant No. 6.
These tenants also need to eat, one meal every two days. The source of the food is not mentioned by Sister Dao, but which world it comes from.
What Miss Din Dao means is that when the next meal is served, she will arrange for a slick man.
Su Xiao turned around and walked towards the safe room. After opening the door, he saw the ghost maid Anas, wearing a gorgeous red dress, floating in mid-air.
"Guest, you are back."
The maid Anas bowed slightly and saluted, then went to cook.
Su Xiao was sitting on the sofa, Bubuwang and Baha were also resting, and Eminem and Beni were not in the room.
Picking up the note on the table, Su Xiao saw the handwriting left by Beni, which read:
'Discovering the key traces of the king and the pure white blood, I used the nightmare as a springboard, from the main world to the ancient land, with the goal of finding the "pure white blood". With it, I can ignore the crazy erosion for a period of time.
I will definitely find it - Benelieu.'
…
Su Xiao was not surprised that Beni left the castle. Although Beni was not very good at treasure hunting, she was very good at exploring. This cat actually used nightmares as a stepping stone to enter a certain fantasy world.
As for where Beni got this information, it should be from tenants No. 2 to No. 6. There is a huge difference in treatment.
Eminem went to protect Beini as a bodyguard. Su Xiao was not prepared to let Eminem fight at this stage. His plan was to let Eminem fight at the last moment to catch his opponent off guard.
With the maid Anas around, when Su Xiao was sleeping, her sanity recovered quickly with the maid Anas's lullaby.
Su Xiao has always hesitated whether to explore the nightmare castle ward. If he puts on the Sun Church suit, enters the castle ward, and then uses [sedative], he can explore the ward for about 12 minutes, provided that he does not encounter anyone.
enemy.
In the next world, we may be chased by the Sunbird Tehakkak. It is urgent to improve our own advantages as much as possible now.
Su Xiao decided to explore the castle ward after his sanity was restored. Before that, he picked up a medical treatment sheet on the roof, which recorded that the doctor left Rosa... (covered with blood) in the ward.
blood.
This person named Rosa... is not only a key figure in the castle, but also in the Church of the Sun. Su Xiao has also seen commissions about her. Why is the second half of this person's name covered with blood? Her blood
What's so special about it? It allows the beast shifter to transform into the seventh stage.
Exploring the castle ward, Su Xiao didn't have much confidence, so he decided to open the existing treasure boxes to improve his ability to deal with nightmares as much as possible. He took out five treasure boxes from the storage space, which are:
[Holy Spirit Treasure Chest (81%)], [Nightmare Treasure Chest], [Arcane Treasure Chest], [Immortal Treasure Chest (81%)], [Immortal Treasure Chest·Shadow of the Dark Demon].
He took out Destiny Salvation and lit a cigarette. After Su Xiao exhaled a puff of light golden smoke, he was in the European Emperor state.
[You have opened the Holy Spirit level treasure chest (81%). 】
【You get Stupid Bird Egg Zakava.】
[Warning: This item is related to the Jar of the Abyss.]
[The jar of the abyss is actively resonating...]
[You get an additional reward, Jar of the Abyss·Fragment (only the right to hold it, not ownership).]
…
Seeing this prompt, Su Xiao was surprised, and then figured out what was going on. At this stage, it seemed that he had fired Wood's father.
