Li Xiu and the others chose the opposite direction to the previous city gate and came to another city gate.
Before approaching the city gate, I heard the faint sound of ghosts crying.
The voice seemed sad and resentful, as if it was a cry coming from the netherworld. Goosebumps rose up in those who listened to it.
"There won't be any female ghosts outside, right?" Chu Jun's eyes lit up.
"There are definitely no female ghosts. Maybe there are female demon spirits. What, what do you think?" Li Xiu looked at Chu Jun and smiled.
"When I was young, my grandfather often told me stories about female ghosts repaying kindness. The more I listened to them, the more I imagined them." Chu Jun was not reserved at all, he chuckled.
"I always thought that only unattractive men would have such thoughts. I didn't expect that a guy like you, with delicate features, would have such thoughts." Li Xiu laughed.
"Do you dare to say that you have never had such a thought?" Chu Jun and Li Xiu looked at each other, saying nothing, and both laughed.
"Dirty." The bandit said coldly.
"Let's see what's outside." Li Xiu said to Chu Jun.
Chu Jun nodded and used his inspiration skills to start sensing the outside.
After a while, the look on Chu Jun's face became a little strange.
"What's going on?" Li Xiu frowned and asked when Chu Jun didn't speak.
"There seems to be demons outside, but there seems to be no demons... Could it be... there really is a ghost..." Chu Jun said with a strange expression.
"Hey, is your inspiration skill reliable?" Li Xiu sighed.
"I used to feel very reliable, but today I'm not so confident." Chu Jun said thoughtfully: "Let's put it this way, I sensed a demon spirit outside, but I couldn't sense its level or name, and there was a time... The demon will appear within my range of perception, sometimes disappear suddenly, and then be there again..."
After hearing this, Li Xiu turned around and left: "Let's go look at the city gates in other directions."
The three people ran to another city gate, and Chu Jun used his inspiration skill again.
"How's it going?" Li Xiu and Bandit both looked at him.
"I sensed it. There are a lot of demon spirits outside the city gate, at least thousands of them. Let me sense them carefully...E-level...D-level...C-level ones...good guys...even B-level and A-level ones. There are... all demon spirits are within the sensing range, and I don't know if there are any outside the range..." Chu Jun said.
"Are you really reliable?" Li Xiu listened to the silence outside the city gate. There was no sound at all. It was really hard to imagine that there were so many demon spirits outside.
"If you don't believe me, go out and have a look." Chu Jun curled his lips and said.
"There's only one last city gate left." Li Xiu turned around and left. He didn't want to die.
Thousands of demon spirits are outside the door. If they all rush in when the city gate is opened, it's hard to say whether there will be a chance to blow out the lamp.
The three people wandered around again and came to the last city. It was also quiet outside the city gate, with no sound at all.
Chu Jun lay on the inside of the city gate and sensed it for a long time, then stood up and said to Li Xiu: "No, there is not a single demon spirit within a thousand meters."
Li Xiu and Bandit looked at him without saying a word.
"Don't look at me like this. It really doesn't happen. Anyway, I am a demon spirit and I didn't sense it. You have to believe me." Chu Jun was a little anxious.
"Open the city gate." Li Xiu summoned the Jedi Knight, Demigod Sets and the God of Love Archer, and asked them to line up and stand in the gate. If something rushes in when the city gate opens, it's okay.
A precaution.
"Am I so untrustworthy?" Chu Jun said depressedly.
"If you don't believe me, you won't open the door." Li Xiu said with a smile while turning the winch with Bandit.
"But your actions make me feel like I'm not trusted." Chu Jun curled his lips.
"That's your psychological problem. You have to learn to overcome the psychological barriers on your own." As he spoke, the city gate was slowly raised. It was quiet outside and nothing happened.
"Hey!" Chu Jun lay on the ground and looked out from the gap below, making a sound of surprise.
"What's wrong?" Li Xiu didn't sound frightened when he heard Chu Jun's voice, but more like he was a little surprised, so he didn't put down the winch in a hurry.
"It's so strange. Come and see for yourself." Chu Jun waved to Li Xiu.
Li Xiu asked the bandit to control the winch, came to the city gate, lowered his head and looked outside, and immediately let out a surprised sigh.
It was a long dark night in the Black Death City, with no light at all except the fire.
But outside the city gate, the setting sun was shining slantingly, and the red sun hung in the sky, reflecting the clouds like fire clouds covering the sky.
The endless yellow desert outside is also covered with a layer of red under the setting sun. The tall cactus plants stand quietly in the distance, like a beautiful desert-style oil painting.
After the bandit fixed the winch, he also came over and was stunned when he saw the scene outside.
The inside and outside of the city are like two worlds, one is the dark night, and the other is the desert under the sunset.
Chu Jun looked at the sky inside the city, then looked at the sky outside the city, and said with a strange expression: "Is this the same sky?"
"It's not like that," said the bandit.
"Is there a sea in the desert?" Li Xiu suddenly asked.
"I don't know. I have never seen an ocean in the desert. At most, there is a lake." Chu Jun knew what Li Xiu meant. He walked out of the city gate, looked around and said, "It's really strange. What's going on here?"
Can’t you see the Black Sea?”
"I'm afraid the four city gates here all lead to different places." Li Xiu asked the bandit to stay inside to guard the winch, and then he walked out and looked around and said.
All he could see was the desert, but unfortunately he couldn't see very far while wearing the Dark Mirror.
I took off my glasses and looked again. Everything I could see was yellow sand and nothing else.
"This is a bit difficult to handle. There doesn't seem to be a single demon spirit nearby, and we don't have the tools to locate it. If we just go out like this, it will be tragic if we get lost in the desert and cannot come back." Chu Jun pondered.
He said: "Four gates, the seaside is too dangerous, and there are no demons here. There is a female ghost outside one gate, and there are thousands of demons outside the other gate. They are not going to give us a way to survive at all."
Li Xiu walked around the city gate, but did not dare to leave the city gate too far, and did not find any monsters or other things.
Chu Jun followed Li Xiu and kept using his inspiration skills, but he also found no trace of the demon spirit.
Li Xiu was originally thinking about the possibility of demons hiding under the sand, but now it seems that is not the case. There are indeed no demons nearby.
"Come on, let's go to the gate with the most demons. You can draw the locations and levels of the demons." Li Xiu returned to the city, put down the city gate, and said to Mr. Chu on the side.
"Okay." Chu Jun also knew that their best choice at the moment was to go out through that door to hunt the demon spirits, otherwise they would have to go back home.
When he came to the city gate, Chu Jun drew on the ground while sensing, and drew the distribution of the monsters outside. He directly used B, C, D, and E to represent the locations of the monsters.
"That's probably what it looks like." Chu Jun drew out the locations of the main demon spirits.
"Don't be general, be careful. The location of every demon spirit is marked, including all E-level ones." Li Xiu said.
"Okay." Chu Jun nodded and continued to draw on the ground.
"City Lord, I've thought about it." Ye Yuzhen walked over, looked at Li Xiu and said slowly.
"What have you thought about?" Li Xiu stood up and looked at Ye Yuzhen and asked.
"I will continue on the path of a trialer. My symbiotic contract is not good enough and I don't have a demon spirit, but these can be made up for. If the symbiotic contract doesn't work, I will look for a parasitic contract. Although the parasitic contract is difficult to grow,
But I will definitely find a parasitic contract that suits me. No matter how difficult it is, I will try every means to make it grow." Ye Yuzhen looked at Li Xiu and continued: "I can't help you now, so I won't
If there is anything I can do to cause trouble for you, you can call me at any time."
After that, Ye Yuzhen approached Li Xiu and whispered in a voice that could only be heard by Li Xiu: "My symbiosis contract is called the Ring of Promise. It is not a combat weapon and has no attack power, but it can sign a contract with any demon spirit.
Let the devil work for me."
Li Xiu looked at Ye Yuzhen and thought: "Does he have some misunderstanding about the quality of a contract? If such a contract is not considered good, what other contract can be considered good?"
"The Ring of Promise has restrictions. Only those I can defeat with my own hands can sign a contract with it. What kind of demons can I defeat now?" Ye Yuzhen explained, seeing Li Xiu's thoughts.
"Can you use foreign objects?" Li Xiu asked in a low voice.
"Both deeds and demon spirits are acceptable, but they must all be mine." Ye Yuzhen said.
"Where's the magic costume?" Li Xiu asked again.
"I don't have the talent to be a magician." Ye Yuzhen said bitterly.
"What if the demon spirit you defeated was a half-disabled demon spirit?" Li Xiu thought for a while and asked.
"I've thought about this too, but I haven't had the chance to test it."
"That's easy. You'll have a chance to give it a try later." Li Xiu pointed to the picture Chu Jun drew on the ground and said, "First, remember the locations of those demon spirits clearly. Maybe they will be useful later.
.”
"Okay." Ye Yuzhen walked over, stared at the map of the location of the demon spirits on the ground, and began to memorize it.
Chu Jun marked the levels and locations of the demon spirits that he could sense. After finishing, he sat down on the ground and said, "This is more tiring than fighting the demon spirits."
"You can fight the demons soon." Li Xiu said with a smile.
"No, you really want me to rush out too? Are you sure you won't die if you go out like this? My fighting power is very weak, and I don't have as many demon spirits to protect me as you..." Chu Jun looked at Li with wide eyes.
build.
"You don't have to rush out, but you have to help me guard the city gate. There are so many demons. It's inevitable that I will make mistakes by myself. If there are demons rushing over, you have to guard the door with them, and you can't let the demons rush in.
." Li Xiu said.
"I'll try my best. I still don't know what level the demon spirits outside are. If a radiant demon spirit comes charging at me, I won't be able to stop it," Chu Jun said.
Li Xiu smiled. Chu Jun has an advantage. Although he can be a bit arrogant and unreliable at times, he will never act recklessly at critical times. He will do whatever he can and will never take over everything.
"Okay, just try your best." Li Xiu nodded with a smile.
"You guys keep the door, I'll go out and take a look, open the door." Li Xiu said.
"You asked me to draw it in such detail, why don't you take a closer look?" Chu Jun said, pointing to the map.
"No need." Li Xiu came to the door without summoning the demon spirit first.
He was lying next to the door, and Agui and Ye Yuzhen turned the winch together. The stone door gradually rose, and Li Xiu looked out through the crack in the door.
It was a sunny morning outside, but the morning light was still a bit dazzling. Fortunately, the Mirror of Darkness made Li Xiu's eyes not afraid of the sun, but he couldn't see clearly either.
But after seeing the situation outside clearly, Li Xiu couldn't help but be startled.
The imagined group of demon spirits did not appear, not to mention thousands of demon spirits, not even one demon spirit.
Outside is a canyon. The ground of the canyon is quite flat, with almost 90-degree vertical mountain walls on both sides, at least several hundred meters high.
"Strange, why are there no demons?" Chu Jun, who was also lying on the ground and looking out, instantly became unconfident.
Since arriving in Black Death City, his self-confidence has been hit again and again.
Li Xiu didn't say anything, he just summoned the Black Death Demon and let the Black Death Demon rush forward.
Not far after the Black Death Demon rushed out, a smoking green skeleton suddenly emerged from the ground.
It's a bit inaccurate to say it's a skeleton. That thing is more like a mechanical skeleton made of metal, very similar to the half-human, half-skeleton demon that Li Xiu killed before.
It's just that this skeleton doesn't have the human half. The entire body is made of metal machinery, with green gas coming out of it, and there is a green heart in the chest.
Its hands actually held a huge metal syringe.
Yes, it's the kind of syringe that doctors use for injections, except that this syringe is a bit big, as thick as an arm. The piston core rod is pulled open, and with the needle at the front end, the length is at least one meter and two.
Green smoke was still coming out of the needle hole at the tip of the needle.
After the Black Death came out, like a hornet's nest, strange mechanical skeletons crawled up from the ground in the valley.
They all have similar appearances, and they all hold metal syringes in their hands.
Fortunately, none of them have any brilliance, not even the Colorful Demon Spirits, they are just ordinary demon spirits.
The mechanical skeleton demon spirit at the front rushed over directly, held up a metal syringe, pointed it at the Black Death Demon, and stabbed him.
The Black Death Demon exploded the shackles with both hands, and the broken black crystal chain turned into a whip of light, which he whipped on the mechanical skeleton demon spirit, breaking it directly at the waist.
The Black Death Demon showed great power and whipped the mechanical skeletons to pieces. No mechanical skeleton could withstand his whip.
Suddenly, four metal arms stretched out from under the Black Death Demon's feet, two metal arms grabbed his left foot, and two metal arms grabbed his right foot.
The Black Death Demon struggled twice but was unable to break free.
While he was distracted, a C-level mechanical skeleton rushed over from the side and stabbed the Black Death Demon with a needle.
Li Xiu did not summon other demon spirits to rescue him, but just watched calmly.
"I told you to look at the map carefully, but you still didn't listen." Chu Jun sighed.
Li Xiu didn't say anything. He knew the locations of all the mechanical skeletons very well. He knew there were mechanical skeletons underneath. If he deliberately controlled them, the Black Death Demon would not walk past them.
The reason why he let the Black Death Demon step in even though he knew there was a demonic spirit was because Li Xiu wanted to know what the contents of those metal syringes were for.
Without knowing what was inside the syringe, he was worried about letting the other monsters out to fight.
Theoretically speaking, the Black Death Demon has no body, his body is just the armor on the outside, and there are masses of black energy on the inside, so he should not be afraid of poison.
If the metal syringe contains venom, it should be useless against the Black Death.
But when the metal syringe penetrated the body of the Black Death Demon, and the mechanical skeleton pushed the piston rod and injected the contents into the Black Death Demon's body, a strange scene happened.
Green aura emerged from the part where the Black Death Demon was stabbed. He whipped off the arm of the C-class mechanical skeleton, but the green aura still spread on his body.
You can see that starting from the position of the pinhole, green patterns spread on the Black Death Demon's armor.
Wherever those green patterns went, the originally black armor of the Black Death Demon gradually turned into green metal.
"Can the contents of the metal syringe metalize other life forms?" Li Xiu was a little surprised.
He had seen a demon spirit that could use magic light to metallize matter before, but this was the first time he had seen a demon spirit that could use a syringe to metallize life.
Although the levels of these demon spirits are not high and their grades are not high, the contents of the syringe can actually hit even the bright demon spirits, which is a bit surprising.
The green metal spreads on the body of the Black Death Demon. Although the speed is not fast, there is no sign of stopping.
The Black Death Demon was still fighting, and Li Xiu summoned it back with a thought.
The black death demon turned into a demon ring and returned to Li Xiu's finger. There was a little green on the black crystal-like ring. The green spot was made of metal and was spreading.
"What a powerful thing!" Li Xiu summoned the demigod Setsuna and the God of Love Archer, but did not summon the Jedi Knight.
After all, the Jedi Knight is a melee fighter, so this situation is not suitable.
Demigod Setsuna and Love God Archer can both perform purely long-range attacks, leaving no chance for those mechanical skeletons.
Two demon spirits were standing guard in front of the city gate, shooting wildly at the groups of demon spirits rushing towards them.
At the beginning, Chu Jun and the others were worried that there were too many mechanical skeletons and that the two demon spirits might not be able to cope with them.
But when he saw the demigod shooting one by one, constantly blasting the hearts of the mechanical skeletons, and the love shooter constantly making those mechanical skeletons kill each other, Chu Jun's eyes widened.
"This demon spirit is really... amazing..." Chu Jun was so envious that his saliva almost flowed out.
Ye Yuzhen was even more shocked. You can find many videos of magic costume masters killing demon spirits by searching on the Internet.
But now it was the demon spirits that were killing the demon spirits, and the two demon spirits still belonged to the same human being. He had never seen such a scene before.
The domineering moment of the demigod and the strange light arrow of the love god archer shocked Ye Yuzhen deeply, making him even more determined to continue on the road of being a trialer.
The magic armor master still needs to go into battle by himself, but the trialist does not need to do it himself at all. He only needs to summon the demon spirit to solve all problems.
"Trialists...can also be very strong...so strong that even magic armor masters at the same level can't match..." Looking at the back of Lima City Gate, Ye Yuzhen's eyes became more and more determined.
