Chapter 360: Crawler

Herag stood outside the city wall, thinking whether to go in.

At this moment, the sky was gradually getting dark, and it would be completely dark in a short time.

This city is very large and covers a large area.

Herag looked to both sides along the traces of the city wall. The city wall was endless and there was no end in sight.

He was not surprised when he saw this city.

Because there are many cities like this in the polluted area.

At that time, the pollution spread, people could walk, but the city could not.

When people left, these cities gradually became deserted and dilapidated until they became ruins and lifeless.

In the Land of Dawn, there are occasional legends about these cities.

Some say that there are some strange stories in them, which are quite scary.

Some people have also said that there are many treasures hidden in these cities, because the people who left that year did not have time to take them all away, so they hid in a corner of the city.

Some people even said that they had seen people in these abandoned cities. Witnesses claimed that these people lived in these abandoned cities and had been thriving since that era.

But many people scoff at this statement.

You have to make up a logical story.

It has been so many years since the pollution first occurred. How could anyone live and reproduce in the polluted area? It is simply a fantasy.

Herag used to learn about this information when he had free time, so he knew a lot of related things.

Herag looked at the dilapidated ruins in front of him and finally decided to go in and spend a night.

In the city, at least you can find a shelter, and there is room to turn around if you encounter anything.

There is no shelter outside the city, and the target is too obvious.

And there is no safe area in the polluted area. It is the same everywhere, so it is better to stay in the city.

The sky has completely darkened and it has completely entered the dark night.

Herag walked into the city and walked along the wide road.

The road here is piled with a lot of dust and gravel, as well as some strange sundries.

There are almost no weeds.

Because of the spread of desolation, this abandoned city has not been submerged by vegetation.

If cities in other places had been abandoned for so many years, they would have been overgrown with weeds and looked like a primeval forest.

But it was also because of this that Herag could still see the original appearance and general structure of the city.

Herag could also see from the collapsed buildings that the architectural style was completely different from the current one.

"It should be tens of thousands of years ago."

Herag recalled that the era before the spread of desolation was called the Glorious Era.

After the spread of desolation, that is, the current era, is generally called the Dawn Era.

The implication is that after successfully repelling the invasion of the Abyss Plane, the Wizard Plane will sooner or later return to the polluted area, completely eliminate the pollution, and usher in a new era for the Wizard Plane.

As for how long the Glorious Era is from now, Herag has not yet found detailed historical data, only knowing that it is calculated in units of ten thousand years.

Herag always feels that there are some problems with the history books he saw in the Dawn Land, and they feel unclear, as if they have been tampered with by someone.

He shook his head and stopped thinking about it for the time being, and it has nothing to do with him.

Herag observed the surrounding environment through the deep blue environmental detection. There were few intact buildings.

He walked along the avenue for a while before finding a room that looked relatively intact.

Judging from the ruins and the current appearance, this should have been a large house in the past, but now the walls are completely invisible.

The main hall in this house is very tall, and the main hall is also constructed with very huge stones.

I don’t know what type of stone this is, but it still has a high hardness after so many years.

This main hall is basically built with these large stones. Relying on the hardness of the stone itself, the main structure of the palace is maintained from collapsing.

After Herag walked in, he found a room to spend the night here.

There was thick dust on the ground, and a lot of dust floated up just after walking a few steps.

The conditions were limited, and Herag couldn’t ask for more. It was good to have a place to shelter from the wind and rain.

There were several chairs in this room, all made of wood, and they would decay and collapse with a slight touch.

Herag gathered some wind energy particles and blew away all the dust in the house.

After a little cleaning, there was finally an open space to sit down.

After all the dust in the house settled, Herag took out dry food and drinking water and began to replenish his physical strength.

He calmed down and began to meditate to restore the consumed magic power and adjust his own state.

Now his mind is completely filled with liquefied mental power, and the mental power can no longer continue to grow.

If you want to go further, you can only compress these liquefied mental powers into a crystal and enter the crystallized wizard stage.

As long as you enter the crystallized wizard stage, the upper limit of mental power becomes extremely high.

When the mental power of the crystallized wizard grows, the crystal will become a little bigger.

Normally, it takes a lot of mental power to increase before the crystal will change a little in size.

For most wizards, until they are promoted to the second-level wizard, the mental power crystal in their minds will not change much.

There are also many wizards who stop at the crystallization stage for life, and the mental power crystal in their minds is about the same size as the beginning until they die.

Because the size of the spiritual power crystal needs too much spiritual power to increase.

Most wizards can only increase their spiritual power in a lifetime of meditation, which will not make the crystal particularly large.

Herag still did not start to compress his spiritual power, but relied on meditation to restore his magic power and adjust his own state.

While he was meditating, he suddenly found a figure on a street a few hundred meters away.

That object can only be described as a human figure, because it is a humanoid creature with a pitch-black body.

When Herag saw it, he immediately realized what it was.

He had seen relevant records and descriptions in the diary he picked up. This is a common monster in the polluted area, called the Crawler.

Most of the crawlers are transformed from people who died in the polluted area before. These people may have been wizard apprentices or knights before.

They have certain strength, but not too strong.

Although the strength of the crawler is different for different individuals, it is generally at the level of a third-class wizard apprentice or a knight.

The crawler itself is said to be immortal and has no fatal injuries on its body.

Even if their heads are chopped off, they can still move freely and will not be affected.

The way wizards deal with crawlers is usually to use fire spells to burn them completely.

If they are only chopped into several parts, each part of the crawler can still move independently, which is extremely strange.
