Chapter 498 Withering Road

Smoot felt the subtle atmosphere immediately.

The paladin's breathing became heavy again.

In the end, he wisely ignored those people from the mysterious side, turned around and walked towards the city shrouded in negative energy.

But surprisingly——

clang!

Amidst the sound of metal knocking, Smoot, who was walking, bumped into the black negative energy that looked like smoke, and was shocked back a step.

He looked at the black negative energy in front of him in surprise.

Before the paladin could react, the black negative energy in front of him began to change.

The faint power of decay, along the ground, came towards Smoot.

In fact, not only Smoot, but also everyone on the mysterious side around him.

"Back!"

Smoot reminded loudly, and the 'Holy Power' on his body gushed out.

The white light is extremely conspicuous in the dark.

But it has also become the target of public criticism.

Those negative energies gathered by themselves seem to be alive at this moment, like wolves and beasts, rushing towards Smoot.

Although it was melted by the 'power of the temple' in an instant, it continued continuously.

More importantly, more and more negative energies are added to it.

The black negative energy seemed to turn into black claws, grabbing towards Smoot with a strong wind.

Even Smoot's face changed when he faced hundreds of black claws.

He backed away quickly.

It didn't stop until it was out of the attack range of these claws.

Smoot looked very bad.

Not only because he didn't enter Ceylon, but also because he suddenly discovered at this moment that they have been designed all along.

From the time Simon's 'raid' fell into Barry's layout, everything was beyond their control, and everything that followed was just the other party's constant 'playing' with them.

Put out the bait and keep them on the go.

In the powerless, seek more reinforcements.

until...

Qin Ran's arrival.

Barry's goal is to sue the bird?

Such thoughts emerged from the bottom of Smoot's heart, but soon the paladin shook his head.

"No, not him!"

"That's not his style!"

The unknown enemy made Smoot's face gloomy again.

He raised his head and looked at the city shrouded in negative energy in the distance, his brain spinning rapidly.

give up?

Sorry, that word is not in his dictionary.

...

When passing through the collection of black negative energy, the feeling of comfort and sleep spreads from the body to the mind.

If it wasn't for O'Hara being beside him, Kieran would definitely be moaning. Moaning.

However, O'Hara's situation is different.

Even though there was no real injury, the ugly expression told Qin Ran that she was unwell at the moment.

"How about it?"

Qin Ran asked.

Although he would not admit that the other party thought of him as someone's reincarnation, when the other party had been showing goodwill, Kieran didn't mind helping the other party within the scope of his ability.

"fine!"

"It's just that the air here makes me feel uncomfortable—it's like entering a slaughterhouse. The smell of blood makes me sick to my stomach!"

Faced with Kieran's concern, O'Hara immediately smiled.

2567 has begun to accept me!

I have to work hard!

O'Hara clenched her fist quietly.

Qin Ran, who had already turned around to check his surroundings, did not see this scene.

Otherwise, you will definitely regret your troublesome things.

Qin Ran looked at the straight road in front of him, and then looked at the dense forests on both sides.

His brows frowned involuntarily.

June was supposed to be a season of lush vegetation and hot summer.

But the city of Ceylon, shrouded in negative energy, is cold and dim.

But the trees that should have been emerald green have long since withered and turned yellow.

Some trees simply withered completely.

die!

"Can't even plants survive under the attack of negative energy?"

Frowning, Qin Ran muttered to himself.

The invasion of negative energy is a very scary phenomenon.

At first, there may be nothing but discomfort.

But over time, it is deadly.

This is true for humans as well as for plants.

Looking at the trees in front of him, Kieran could already guess that there were no normal people left alive in the entire city of Ceylon.

You must know that when facing the invasion of negative energy, plants have to have a resistance far beyond that of humans.

Even, some plants can resist the invasion of some slight negative energy.

call!

After reaching this conclusion, Qin Ran took a deep breath.

Although the news he received before had told him that there were no living people in Ceylon, but when he saw it with his own eyes, it was a different feeling.

The wind is still blowing.

Surrounded by a strong negative energy atmosphere, a layer of sand was rolled up from the dry ground, turning into a small tornado, wandering and turning on the road.

Lonely, lifeless.

The only thing left is the humming of innocent souls.

Kieran could clearly feel the existence of those souls without entering the [Tracking] field of vision.

And, feel the changes of these souls: constantly absorbing negative energy breath, thus changing from ordinary semi-wandering souls to evil spirits with only hatred left.

Qin Ran was completely predictable.

It only takes a few days for more evil spirits to appear where he stands.

This number far exceeds what he has eliminated before.

But Qin Ran didn't make a move ahead of time.

Because, it is completely unnecessary.

In such a big environment, although the evil spirits became terrifying, no amount of evil spirits could threaten him.

After all, such a big environment is also his 'home court'!

So, some things become a breeze.

For example: find a hidden 'fallen'.

Under the blessing of [Flame and Brimstone], a group of flames judged to be relatively strong appeared on Kieran's left hand in an instant.

Woo!

Qin Ran shook his hand.

With a scorching wind, the fireball flew towards the sign beside the road.

It was a sign made entirely of metal.

A main rod the thickness of an arm, and a sign that is two palms wide and one meter long.

It can be seen that the surface of the sign has been painted with black paint, while a line of "Welcome to Ceylon City" is written in white paint.

Although under the attack of negative energy at this moment, the sign has become mottled, and half of the words are missing.

But it can still be seen clearly.

However, soon, this mottled signboard melted in the flames.

The black figure quickly came out of it, flashing past like a light and shadow.

But Kieran is faster!

Or to be precise, the prophet of the unknown!

Qin Ran stood in front of the black shadow and kicked it out.

Whoosh!

Suddenly, a semi-circular energy pierced the darkness in front of him.
