Devil’s Son-in-Law

Chapter 963 Ghost Town Ruins

Remember for a second

Turin Kingdom, Cloud City.

The sunset glow in the sky is soft and beautiful, like the skirt of the sunset, showing the world the last appearance of today.

A man and a woman are walking hand in hand on the streets of Cloud City. The men and women are very ordinary in appearance and temperament, and they seem inconspicuous in the crowd. No one could have imagined that the man who was not astonishing was the third prince of the Longhuang Empire, "Arthur", who was now famous all over the world.

Chen Rui's camouflage technique can turn into anyone's appearance, even a false god can't see the clue, and Lola's transformation technique is equally brilliant. Even if an assassin walks by face to face at this time, he will not know that the two are the target of assassination. .

Pagliu and Diu Diu in the "Welcome Team" have already passed through Garton City to the Mirror City of the Loya Kingdom. The team will reach the Starlight Kingdom through the portal of the Mirror City, and then go directly from the Starlight Kingdom to the Lanyao Empire. This is the The fastest route.

Chen Rui left the team with the fairy dragon to fly solo. His first destination was not the Lanyao Empire, but the Jade Forest Sea. So this time I chose the fastest route to the Emerald Forest Sea, from the Sunset City in the Yangshao Kingdom to Turin Kingdom, Baicheng Kingdom and other places, and then to the Emerald Forest Sea by water.

After dealing with the dwarves and elves, Chen Rui will enter the Lanyao Empire through the emerald forest. Anyway, after Pagliu and the others arrive at the Lanyao Empire, they will slow down and wait for the real protagonist "Arthur" to come to meet. , and then go to the Lan Yao Imperial Capital to attend the wedding.

Chen Rui and Lola crossed the border of Xiying City all the way, and it took two days to reach the Cloud City of Turin Kingdom. journey. So the two decided to temporarily stay in Cloud City for one night.

The Kingdom of Turin is a small country, although the name of Cloud City is nice. However, it is located on the frontier, far less prosperous than those cities in the Yangshao Kingdom. It is even more incomparable with the Longhuang Empire. It can only be regarded as a barren small town. The only thing worthy of praise is the handicrafts here, which are quite exquisite.

"Lola, do you like this earring?"

"kindness."

"This necklace suits you very well."

"kindness."

"This skirt..."

"kindness."

"Lola?"

"kindness?"

"what's wrong?"

"I like them all." (I like them very much) Although the answer is very simple, Miss Fairy Long's heart is as sweet as honey. As long as Chen Rui chooses, it will be affirmed without exception.

Chen Rui looked at Lola's wide-eyed smile, and suddenly felt a sense of harmony. She likes not only these gifts, but also this kind of life and this kind of feeling.

He likes it too.

Love can't be blind stormy seas and life-and-death excitement, but more plain as water and mutual warmth.

After several life and death, he exhausted his energy, and finally ended the war in the demon world, and released magic games to fight the abyss in two worlds, not for some great ambition, but just to protect his cherished people and cherished happiness.

to this end. He will look directly at the unknown dangers ahead and move on.

"Boss," Lola's eyes lit up and picked up something. "I want this."

"Wrap it together." Chen Rui said.

Lola shook her head: "I'll pay for this one, I bought it for Duoduo."

Chen Rui looked at the ingenious little toy and thought of the cute little Phoenix daughter who left saliva marks on his face every day. Warm in my heart, I couldn't help holding Lola's hand tightly.

"Think of Duoduo?" Laura and Chen Rui's tacit understanding is getting deeper and deeper: "And Athena and the others?"

Chen Rui nodded. Laura leaned lightly on his shoulder: "Next time, bring Athena and the others out together."

"En." Chen Rui knew that this was actually difficult, Shia, Kathleen, and Athena all had important positions. It is almost impossible to leave the post for a long time, especially the two queens, maybe one day, they can completely unload the burden on their shoulders, so that they can really relax.

"You two, this is the item you picked." The owner of the boutique is a smiling old man, looking at the couple looking like a man and a woman with a smile, "Your Excellency is four black crystal coins and twelve white crystal coins. , the little toy that lady bought is three amethyst coins and seven white crystal coins, the fractions are removed, a total of four black crystal coins and three amethyst coins, thank you."

Chen Rui and Lola paid the money, and the boss kindly added: "The two of you should be from out of town. It's getting dark now, so hurry up and find a hotel to check in. Don't go out at night, and I'll close the door immediately. already."

Chen Rui was taken aback and asked, "Is there a curfew at night? Even if it is a curfew, it's still early."

"It's not a curfew... There's a bit of a situation during this time. Even the guards don't dare to come out easily at night."

Lola carefully discovered the abnormality of the street outside. It was quite lively when she entered Cloud City before. After visiting a few stores, there were actually very few pedestrians, and most of them seemed to be in a hurry, as if they wanted to hurry back. , two-thirds of the shops are also closed.

Chen Rui asked curiously, "What's going on here?"

"Since you came to Cloud City, you haven't even heard of this? This is a famous ghost town!" The boss looked around and said cautiously, "Every night, the area around Cloud City is enveloped by a mysterious power. , this kind of power is terrifying, it can absorb the soul and vitality of human beings, even when walking outside,

The power will also be swallowed up. Legend has it that some kind of terrifying spirit is at work, and everyone who goes out will be sucked out of their flesh and soul. There is also a legend that it is a curse, cursing the darkness behind the light... This situation has existed for many, many years, and I don't know the exact time. There have been many daring adventurers who deliberately went out at night to find out. When they were discovered the next day, they had become a pool of dead bones. After such incidents happened in a row, no one dared to try again. Even people in the church advised everyone not to go out at night. The radiant knights of the Palace of Light in the capital came to investigate several times, but they found nothing. You are here at the wrong time, this week is the most powerful time of the year. Let's find a hotel right now. Otherwise it is dangerous to be late. "

"The curse that has plagued the city for many years? Resentful spirits?" After leaving the shop, Fairy Dragon's eyes flickered a bit. Chen Rui could see that the boss's kind reminder not only did not make Lola vigilant. Instead, it was interesting.

For the scientist Fairy Dragon, the grievances are just undead creatures with stronger spiritual power, and the curse is just another form of magic and elemental attack. It is rare to encounter such a research object, how can you miss it?

As for the resentment or the curse, Chen Rui didn't take it to heart. He has a super system and many abilities, and Lola has the kingdom of six elements. The strength of the two has already reached the peak of the country, even if there is a resentment or curse. Not to be feared either.

"Let's find a place to rest first. Have a drink," Chen Rui's words left Lola stunned, and then the guy kissed the back of his hand: "Then when it gets dark, let's go see the so-called so-called Resentful spirit, Lord Gu?"

The last title reminded Lola of the past when Chen Rui first entered the Rainbow Valley as an "assistant", her eyes were gentle, and she made a soft "oh", leaning against him even tighter.

late at night.

Not a single pedestrian could be seen in Cloud City, and even the guards guarding the city gate were nestled in the fortress at the top of the city and did not dare to come out. In fact, at night, no one in the entire "ghost town" dares to enter or leave the city or make trouble in the city...except for the two new "tourists" who came to the city.

"It's really a strong grievance. It has some undead-like aura, no wonder it is considered a grievance." Laura carefully felt the strong dark power in the city, "However. It doesn't seem like a pure undead aura."

Chen Rui added: "This kind of breath has a certain erosive effect on the soul, and it is easy for people to have some hallucinations. But it does not cause much substantial damage. This should be the reason why it is considered a 'curse'."

Laura nodded. I closed my eyes and opened my perception with all my strength: "It's a very strong and strange power, and it also interferes a lot with perception, but the dazzling direction of the dark element tells me that the source should be outside the city."

"Then let's solve the mystery."

The two of them didn't need to move, they just kept a certain speed and flew hand in hand. With Lola's induction, they approached the source of the different power step by step, a piece of ruins scattered in the woods.

The location of this ruin is obviously the outskirts of Cloud City, which is quite far away, but the strange force it emits actually envelops the entire city.

Chen Rui frowned: "The scale of this ruin is very large, it looks like some kind of dilapidated ruins, it is quite old, and it is dead, and you can't feel the breath of any living thing at all, wait, there is a special kind of thing in it. The breath of strength seems to be..."

"It's an ancient rune! The breath is still quite secret... I seem to have found a hinge." Laura took it and moved her hand away. A huge broken pillar buried in the rock slowly stood up. Lola's movements were very careful. Under the moonlight, Chen Rui saw a faint circular special symbol on the broken column.

After the broken column stood up, Chen Rui's mental power clearly felt the changes in the surroundings, as if a switch had been turned on. Of course, not everyone has a sense of power like Lola and him, especially the ancient rune. Comprehension, it is even more impossible to find this hub at the first time in the broken stone and ruins.

"This is a game of arranging patterns." Despite the change in appearance, Chen Rui was very familiar with the light in Miss Fairy Long's purple eyes, as if a child had found some interesting toy, "I see, It's just like your big nine-square grid game last time, you have to calculate the appropriate numbers and open them one by one, let me see..."

This kind of problem-solving thinking is a kind of enjoyment for Lola. Chen Rui did not disturb her, but just looked at the surrounding situation. The forest is very large, but it cannot completely cover the scope of the ruins. Chen Rui had been to the ruins of Cui Fant in the Fengying Empire in the Fallen Angel Empire. Compared with the scale of this ruin, it seemed far inferior.

"Thirty-five meters to the west, this... and then another twelve meters to the north..." Here, Lola has quickly calculated the order and location of the pivots, and as she waved her hands, objects were erected.

These "hubs" have strict sequence requirements and appear to be very complicated, but Chen Rui and Lola are both proficient in ancient runes, and the level of the magic circle can be regarded as the master level. This level of difficulty is not difficult for them.

Chen Rui noticed that there were traces of movement around these hubs. It seems that Lola was not the first person to open the hub, and the circular symbol can be seen in several places in the ruins, like a cloud... Cloud city?

The sound of "Boom Rumble" interrupted Chen Rui's thoughts. It turned out that Lola had successfully activated all the hubs, and the erected objects began to glow, connecting with each other, interweaving into a bizarre figure, slightly radiant. In an instant, the landscape below began to change rapidly.

A strong spiritual force surged out, mixed with resentment that eroded the soul, and it was boundless, just like the group of resentful souls that Chen Rui encountered at the bottom of the sea of ​​death in the devil world.

Sample.

The scene below gradually became clear. It was originally a shielding power of space, but now it has been lifted by Lola. You can see an avenue leading to a similar square in front, and the square is faintly glowing.

"Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh..." Countless cold lights roared towards Lola in the air, and the speed was extremely fast, and the shadows below flickered - someone! (To be continued..)

ps: This morning, I went to the hotel to order food, and brought my 90-year-old grandpa to the hotel (grandma's legs couldn't walk at all and the weather was bad, so I didn't carry it back), and after eating at the restaurant at noon, it was already two o'clock, my brother-in-law sent him off, My father-in-law and my mother-in-law took my nephew to my house. They ate at my house in the afternoon. I bought food and cooked. It was already eight o'clock in the evening after I finished my meal.
