Chapter 16 Loading

The grass and trees outside the ancient city are extremely lush. The willow trees on the bank of the moat have grown more than ten meters tall, and even the ordinary grass by the roadside has grown to half the height of a person.

The river was covered with lotus leaves the size of boats, and the lotus blossoms were bigger than the washbasin, showing a strange red color, as if stained with blood.

Affected by the different-dimensional realm, the nearby animals and plants have changed to varying degrees, but it is not as serious as the mutation in the different-dimensional realm.

Outside the ancient city, there are troops stationed with real guns and live ammunition, and tanks are patrolling nearby. No one is allowed to enter the ancient city without a pass.

There were even surface-to-air missiles deployed nearby, but Zhou Wen had never seen those missiles fired.

In fact, the threat of thermal weapons to other-dimensional creatures is very limited. Even if a nuclear bomb explodes in a different-dimensional field, it is difficult to cause too much damage. Even many other-dimensional creatures can absorb the energy generated by the nuclear bomb to evolve, becoming more terrifying.

Ordinary bullets are even more useless. If they hit a different-dimensional creature, they will be swallowed and fused.

Only bullets made of some special materials can cause damage to other-dimensional creatures, but those materials are very rare, and it is too wasteful to make bullets that are consumed at one time. Generally, they are used to make cold weapons such as swords.

Thermal weapons have little effect on other-dimensional creatures, but they still have great lethality to human beings, so the main role of thermal weapons now is to maintain human social order.

Zhou Wen did not have a pass, but the admission ticket on his body was a disguised pass. During the actual test, he had an opportunity to form a team from the north gate to enter the ancient city of Guide.

The ancient city of Guide has four gates from east, west, north and south. It was originally a small town, and it was less than ten miles around the city.

However, after the different-dimensional storm, the ancient city of Guide has transformed into a different-dimensional domain, and the internal space is many times larger than the original one. Humans have not yet been able to fully detect the entire ancient city of Guide.

Entering from the four gates of east, west, north and south, the different-dimensional creatures that can be encountered are somewhat different. Among them, the different-dimensional creatures in the north gate are the weakest. As long as they are not too deep, there is generally not much danger.

Because the admission ticket can only verify the registration of the four people to enter together, Li Xuan and Zhou Wen have not met the other two team members who have not met yet, and the entry time has not arrived, so Zhou Wen can only stand outside the gate of the ancient city. wait.

The north gate of the ancient city is ancient and mysterious. The blue bricks of the gate tower are mottled and dilapidated, and many places have been weathered and decayed.

However, Zhou Wen heard that the troops used a large number of missiles to bombard the ancient city of Guide in the past. The missiles bombarded in rows for more than ten minutes, but the seemingly decayed ancient city building did not even break a tile.

The plaque above the city gate is engraved with three traditional Chinese characters "Guide House", which are ancient and vigorous, as if the aftertaste of a thousand years of history is intertwined.

Zhou Wen's gaze finally settled on a strange pattern behind the door plaque.

The pattern looked like a small hand-shaped dent left by a baby's palm on the city brick, but within the small hand dent, there was an engraving similar to a garlic head or an onion pattern.

There was no such pattern in the ancient city of Guide before. I heard that this strange pattern appeared behind the door plaque after the storm of different dimensions, but no one knew what the pattern meant or who carved it. .

Zhou Wen was looking at the pattern, but suddenly felt the phone in his pocket vibrate.

Zhou Wen thought that Yu Qiubai or Li Xuan were looking for him, but when he reached out and grabbed the phone in his pocket, he was stunned.

Because the mobile phone in this pocket is not the ordinary mobile phone he usually uses, but the mysterious mobile phone. The mysterious mobile phone has no function of answering calls at all, and it has never vibrated.

Why is this happening all of a sudden now?

Seeing that no one was paying attention to him, Zhou Wen took out the phone from his pocket and saw that the phone screen had automatically turned on, and a camera icon was flashing.

"Why haven't I seen this camera program before? What's the use of this thing, is it asking me to take a selfie?" Zhou Wen wondered and clicked the camera icon.

Like ordinary mobile phones, the mobile phone entered the camera mode, but it was not Zhou Wen himself, but the rear camera.

Fortunately, taking pictures is not prohibited in the ancient city. Those guarding soldiers saw that Zhou Wen was holding a mobile phone and wanted to take pictures, and they did not mean to stop it.

Zhou Wen raised his mobile phone and pointed at the trees and flowers next to him, wanting to try the camera function.

But Zhou Wen soon discovered that this camera function seemed to be broken, and there was no way to press the shutter to take a photo.

Zhou Wen tapped his finger on the screen of the mobile phone, but the phone was still taking pictures, and there was no response.

"What the hell is this?" Zhou Wen held up his mobile phone and shook it in all directions. When the small hand pattern on the city gate appeared in the photo, he heard a beep, and the mobile phone responded.

Zhou Wen was surprised, and after a closer look, he found that a small green frame appeared on the screen of the mobile phone, locking the weird little hand pattern on the city gate.

After three beeps in a row, the small hand pattern was enlarged on the screen, the ancient city behind it gradually blurred, and a line of words appeared below: Loading...

"Could it be..." Zhou Wen looked at the screen of the mobile phone that had been loading all the time, and a thought flashed in his mind. The thought made him startled, and he couldn't believe it.

But it didn't take long for the mobile phone to prove his guess. After the loading was completed, the small hand pattern became an icon, which appeared on the mobile phone desktop, and stopped next to the ant nest icon. , and there are three words "Ancient Imperial City" below.

"It turned out to be a copy of the game?" Zhou Wen was surprised and happy, resisting the excitement in his heart, and clicked the icon of the ancient imperial city.

Sure enough, the mobile phone screen turned into the game loading screen that Zhou Wen was familiar with. After a while, the game screen turned into the north gate of the ancient city of Guide. Unlike reality, the gate of the north gate had been opened.

Zhou Wen secretly dripped a drop of blood on the phone screen, turned into a blood-colored villain in the game, and walked directly into the city gate.

The ancient slate streets and ancient wooden buildings, although Zhou Wen has never entered the ancient city of Guide, but he has seen the video in the ancient city in the online video, which is exactly the same as what he is seeing now.

Before Zhou Wen could continue the comparison, a skeleton with a bone stick in his hand and a tattered cloth appeared on the stone street, running towards the blood-colored villain.

This thing Zhou Wen has also seen in the video, it is the dead bone soldier in the ancient city of Guide.
