Chapter 60 Entering the Deserted City
Late at night, outside the tent.
A figure ran into the woods at a very fast speed, looking very anxious. Zhao Manyan, who was in charge of the night watch, immediately asked and found out that someone had gotten up in the middle of the night to urinate.
After the man finished peeing in the river, he did not return to the tent immediately. In the dark, he glanced at Zhao Manyan who was patrolling another place, and then quickly hid behind a tree nearby.
“Ding ding~ ding ding~~”
The figure slowly took out a pen-like object that was emitting a little light from his sleeve and quickly buried it under the soil.
After doing all this, the man pretended to be drowsy, yawned, and went back to the tent to continue sleeping.
After this person returned to the tent, Luo Chen walked out from the shadows of the woods and fell into deep thought while looking at the pen-shaped object in front of him...
........................
On the second day, the group continued their journey.
Traveling along the way can be described as trekking through mountains and rivers, overcoming thorns and thorns.
Except for the time when the group of eighteen worked together to kill the monster in the cave, the whole process went relatively smoothly and they did not encounter such large groups of monsters again.
With their current strength, they wouldn't be eaten to the bone by demons after just a few steps.
After walking for nearly ten days, the remote Jinlin City finally appeared in front of everyone's eyes.
What came into view was a city that had long been in ruins and overgrown with weeds.
"That's Jinlin City. How come it has become like this in just fifteen years?"
Zheng Bingxiao looked at Jinlin City from afar and spoke.
"It will definitely be like this if a demon has lived here," Jingjing said.
"There's no point in lamenting all this. Let's first check the number of nearby demons! This will make it easier for us to check out the area later..."
Lu Zhenghe said seriously.
Luo Chen also nodded to show his agreement.
Luo Chen, as the vanguard, still stood at the front to lead the way, and the group followed Luo Chen's steps and began to go deeper into the city.
………………
As everyone entered the city, the true face of the city was revealed before everyone's eyes...
After passing the outer ring road, streets and houses gradually appeared.
There were obvious cracks on the road under the feet of the few people. The cracks were winding all over the road, and weeds were growing in the cracks.
The house was full of dust and densely covered with ivy, and unknown vines were climbing up the floors.
The trees on both sides have been neglected for a long time, and their treetops block out the sun.
Rather than saying that what is in front of us is a city ruin, it is more like a somewhat special primitive jungle.
"We have to find a safe place to stay first." Lu Zhenghe said.
"This place should be able to be evacuated quickly when we encounter danger, and it can also serve as a defense..."
"Just go to the building. I think that one is good." Luo Chen said, pointing to the building in the distance.
"Yes, a high-floor building has a wide view, which makes it easier for us to keep a lookout. Otherwise, it would be difficult for us to notice if a large number of demons come over."
Lu Zhenghe nodded in agreement.
Under the sight of everyone, a gray building rose from the ground in this area. It seemed that due to the washing of rain, the building did not look so dirty.
The most important thing is that this building standing in a deserted street is relatively well preserved, and its sturdiness is naturally extraordinary, because not only is the building tall, but the entire base is also very majestic.
"That should be Jinlin's municipal building."
Luo Chen narrowed his eyes.
Luo Chen knew very well what happened in the original book. There was a pseudo-demon hidden in the building.
Although it is not a threat to Luo Chen, it is too threatening to other students!
If Luo Chen fails to rescue in time, casualties may occur... However, that place is a place that must be visited, so it is safer to take people there with you.
If we really let these guys go to scout the place, who knows how many people will die...
"Okay, that's it!"
Lu Zhenghe also agreed.
Just like that, the group walked towards another building...
........................
the other side
Under the drizzle, mist floated high above the endless mountains, and fine rain continued to fall.
It was wet and muddy everywhere, and the water in the valley was extremely turbulent, the sound of the water could be heard from far away.
The endless grey sky, the endless grey mountains, and the lingering rain curtain half between the sky and the mountains.
In the cold rain, snow-white wings appeared at some unknown time. They flapped their wings, kept a certain distance from Wanchuan, and slowly flew towards the west at a steady speed.
The creature with snow-white wings is a sky eagle, a special trained beast that almost represents the military. It is more of a mount and it is difficult for it to fully participate in the battle.
Sky Eagles should be one of the few creatures that can be tamed through psionic magic. During the long years of human beings' fight against demons, it seems that only this special species has been discovered. They are willing to become human's subordinates, but do not fight for humans.
There are gradually more and more snow-white sky eagles, and they are arranged neatly, with a chilling air unique to the Zijun Mage!
"Remember, from now on you are no longer soldiers, and all your actions have nothing to do with the North China Military Headquarters." A man wearing a handsome military robe said on Tianying's back.
The man had a mustache and was holding a retro old-fashioned pipe in his hand. He would take a puff every time he spoke, just like breathing.
"Army Commander, we are still three hundred kilometers away from Jinlin Deserted City. There is a group of Diamond Blood Eagles living around Jinlin Deserted City. Should we just kill them?" The staff officer was a female military mage. Her eyebrows were so long that they could be connected into a straight line. She was not good-looking.
"It's not necessary. Once you get to their territory, just walk." Lu Nian said.
"it is good!"
"This mission can only succeed!"
"Yes!"
………………
In a particularly unique bamboo pavilion to the south of the Imperial Capital College, Dean Songhe, who loves to taste chrysanthemums and camellia flowers, sits on a futon like an old Japanese man, enjoying the aroma from the teapot.
"Boom!!!"
Suddenly, the door was pushed open with great force, and the bamboo door shook violently, as if it was about to break apart.
"Who is so rude?" Dean Songhe frowned.
"It's me, old man."
"Zhankong?" Song He raised his eyelids and looked at the man in front of him who didn't look that young anymore with some surprise.
Song He looked at him and found that Zhan Kong seemed very impatient.
"what happened?"
"Did Luo Chen and Mo Fan go to practice?"
"Yes what's the matter?"
"Does Lu Nian know their location?"
"I know!"
"It's over once you know it!"
Zhan Kong left a confusing remark and flew out of the office.
