Chapter 152
But a ghost town without its builders and guides... becomes a no-man's land, loses all restraint and control, and ends up on the road to self-destruction. Thinking of this, Su Qingxing glanced at the half ghost town that was swallowed up by the fire, and felt that although the guide here was still alive, the city had already reached the brink of destruction.
The title of Underworld Guide sounds very powerful at first, and has many privileges in the trial world.
For example, the underworld guide can know the life information of each tester, can freely travel between the ghost town and the trial world, and can summon ghost town ghosts during the trial...
The most important thing is that the underworld guide can open the door of the lava hell and shut the eliminated ghosts into the lava hell!
But there is one thing that requires the guides of the underworld to be extra careful, that is, when the ghosts that are picked up officially become part of the ghost town, they can no longer easily send the residents of the ghost town to the lava hell.
To put it simply - the ghost you choose, cry and live in peace!
In order to prevent the underworld guides from being attacked by the ghosts they choose, in general, the guides will try their best not to choose ghosts that they cannot control.
Over time, the stronger the ability of the underworld guides, the more popular they are in ghost towns. After all, for monsters like Niu Tau Ma Mian who are the most suitable guides, they can make the monsters in the ghost town obedient and obedient just by sneezing.
And for the underworld guides with weak bloodlines, even if they ask the ghosts to keep their feet in order, the effect that can be obtained is minimal.
It is for this reason that when other ghost towns know the status quo of No. 666 ghost town, the first conclusion they get is that the new guides of No. 666 ghost town must be very weak, so the selected ghosts are also those who are not hostile and extremely easily controlled type.
For this misunderstanding, Su Qingxing did not intend to justify anything.
But this Mr. Gray Crane in front of me...
Even Su Qingxing could see that Gray Crane's strength was not strong, it could even be said to be weak, but he didn't know why he had chosen so many uncontrollable ghosts to enter the ghost town.
"Where's the builder of the ghost town?" In Su Qingxing's opinion, although Zhu Sha always likes to stay in his room and never go out, he is one of the indispensable managers in the ghost town.
"Not all ghost towns are as lucky as No. 666, ahem." Gray Crane lying on the ground turned to look at Su Qingxing, "Compared with guides, there are very few people who can become builders, and they can become excellent. There are very few builders, and I believe that most of the ghost towns at the entrance to the underworld lack qualified builders, and there are even no builders like me here."
Su Qingxing had heard about builders and knew that cinnabar was a very special existence among builders.
According to Su Qingxing's understanding, most builders will not build scripts for the trial world, but at most create a basic world, similar to deserts, wastelands, doomsday, volcanoes...
Cinnabar is the only builder who will painstakingly create so many different worlds.
"Your ability is not enough to manage this place." After hesitating for a while, Su Qingxing told the truth, "We must quickly find someone to take over here."
"Would anyone want to come here for a job?" Gray Crane looked at the fire-flooded street. "There are many ghost towns with job vacancies. How could anyone look at a place like 665?"
Su Qingxing felt that Grey Crane was also very sad, but it also wouldn't make people feel pitiful.
"You are a senior, so as a junior, I shouldn't have said much." Su Qingxing shook his head, "But these things could have been avoided, but Mr. Gray Crane, who is the guide of the underworld, didn't do it."
"Boy, I'm already dying, so why put salt on my wound?" Gray Crane coughed a few times, and again coughed up blood, "I once thought that as long as the ghost town's strength could become more powerful, It can make the residents of the ghost town live better. But I didn't expect... When I brought the first Specter into the ghost town, I already sent the originally peaceful life to the tiger's mouth. "
"Su Qingxing, your name is Su Qingxing, isn't it?" Gray Crane's voice had some spirit, but at this time it looked more like a flashback, "The ghost town convention that is held every two hundred years, you must be careful! You must be careful! Even if you lose for a while, you must not destroy the peace of Ghost Town No. 666! Be careful!"
Grey Crane suddenly grabbed Su Qingxing's hand and tried his best to press it tightly.
"If you really regret it, I can help you." Su Qingxing said this not because he was soft-hearted, but because he hoped that the neighbors in his ghost town would be as peaceful as possible!
But Gray Crane still shook his head, and the corner of his mouth exposed outside his hair suddenly smiled, and said with inexplicable pride: "Actually, I lied to you just now."
"..."
"I have found a newcomer who is willing to take over the ghost town No. 665." Grey Crane sounded really happy, "But I can't let the newcomer see such a bad ghost town, so I will do the final cleanup."
Final cleanup?
After hearing Hui He said these five words, Su Qingxing's expression suddenly changed, and many blue light spots suddenly appeared around Su Qingxing's body.
That is, the moment Su Qingxing floated up, the entire No. 665 ghost town street as far as he could see began to crack!
The ghosts who were still fighting and quarreling, at this moment, issued the last
Cries for help. But Gray Crane just smiled and watched the door of the lava hell open in the ghost town!
The topography of each ghost town is remarkably similar.
A straight street with various buildings on both sides.
But if you look down at the whole ghost town from above, doesn't it look like a door? The street in the middle is the door, and the buildings on both sides are the left and right doors.
When the guide opens the lava hell in the ghost town, it is the real gate of hell that can destroy the entire ghost town!
"Su Qingxing, do me a favor in the end." Gray Crane just lay on the cracked street, refused Su Qingxing's help, and shouted loudly—
"If you see a new guide for Ghost Town 665, tell him...it's actually a great ghost town! With his hard work, it will get even better one day!"
"Also, thank you for accompanying me to the end, Su Ye."
The moment he heard that name, Su Qingxing's face showed an incredible expression. Because the name that Gray Crane called out at the end...Su Ye...that belongs to Su Qingxing's mother!
Could it be that the guide to the underworld that Gray Crane had heard in his previous words was his mother? !
After speaking, Grey Crane's last strength swept towards the gap in the air, and then closed his eyes forever.
Su Qingxing just floated above the open lava hell, watching the corpse of the gray crane sink into the lava, watching the ghosts and buildings of the entire ghost town fall into the lava...
"Ah ah ah ah ah!"
Su Qingxing, who was floating in the air, watched all this silently, and then threw the paper lantern that he had been holding in his hand directly to the lava sea in front of him.
Among the paper lanterns were the intruders who were trapped on the third floor of the villa, and now they have returned home in another way.
I don't know how long it took, the opened gate of hell closed, and the whole ghost town No. 665 returned to peace.
But at this moment, there was no life other than Su Qingxing in Ghost Town No. 665, and those buildings that had collapsed also disappeared into the lava along with those ghosts.
There was only one straight street left, stretching into an endless distance.
nothing left……
Su Qingxing did not know what kind of memories Gray Crane had with his mother.
But Su Qingxing knew that Gray Crane's last choice was to bring all the ghosts he chose by himself into hell.
Gray Crane had already helped to repair half of the gap before he died, so Su Qingxing just stretched out his hand to completely close the gap in mid-air, and then disappeared directly from the deserted ghost town No. 665.
Before Su Qingxing left, he vaguely saw the sky that had been completely covered by fire and smoke, and it seemed that it finally showed its original appearance.
That was the original black.
In the blink of an eye, Su Qingxing has returned to the ghost town No. 666 where he is responsible. Although it looks empty and silent, and although buildings stand like tombstones in the dark night, when Su Qingxing is completely in the familiar cold air, he has a feeling of... coming home.
There were no people or ghosts in the streets, and the lights on the side of the road were extremely weak. Su Qingxing just walked on the streets like a leisurely stroll.
