Chapter 31 Unexpected News

"Isengard's real secret?" Ziyue obviously didn't know this.

"Isengard is not as small as you see. Isengard is actually divided into three layers. The middle one is the temple area, the outer one is the city's garrison control area, and the outermost is the real urban residential area. What you see is actually the temple area and the garrison area. The real main body of the city is still buried underground! And I also want to tell you that Essinger has a shadow city directly below Essinger. In terms of construction and It's exactly the same as above, just reversed."

"According to what you said, Essinger needs to have an area more than 80 times that of the divine city, one of the three main cities in the system?" Gold Coin was already frightened.

"Have you also seen the height of the city wall? How do you feel? Generally speaking, the height and thickness of the city wall are determined based on the area of ​​the city. Now this thickness should correspond to this kind of super metropolis!"

"But according to Ziyi, the area next to Essinger is not very suitable for leveling. The monster levels are too single and the density is too high, which is really not good! There are no suitable leveling spots in such a big city, and there may be no players in the future. If you join, it will really turn into a ghost town!"

"Originally, I built the city to give everyone a birthplace of guilds. The girls from Japan in the province will return to Japan to resurrect as soon as they die. And now I have a huge secret in my hand, one that is enough to change this problem. secret!"

"What secret?" Jin Coin and Ziyue shouted together.

I looked around and saw no one around, and then whispered: "I heard that when building a city, you can directly purchase experienced high-level NPCs from cities in other systems. The ability to apply to the system to generate new NPCs will be very low. Those purchased directly will be very powerful. Also, the Son of the Night behind me can directly communicate with the soul of the equipment. If you ask him to look at the equipment for you, you will know how to maximize the strength of the equipment. But I heard him say that only elite equipment and above will have soul problems, and low-level equipment has no soul."

"Oh? Really?" Jin Coin immediately took out his dagger. "This dagger of mine is still a Holy Spirit equipment! Let him see it quickly."

I took the dagger and threw it directly next to the Night Child. "Help her take a look!"

Ye Zhizi picked it up and looked at it and said: "This dagger says that its owner always uses it as a knife. The main attack method of the dagger is to stab rather than cut, and its properties are poisonous." The penetration of medicine requires quenching the poison before it can be used, but its owner never quenches the poison and always says that this property cannot be effective!" After reading the properties, the son of the night threw the dagger away again. return.

I caught the dagger directly in the air and gave it back the gold coins. "heard it?"

"So there is such a use! I really didn't know! Where did you find this person? In the future, when he is in charge of our city, the people queuing up to see the equipment will probably crowd down the city gate of Essinger. Got it!"

"So I say that developing a city is not difficult. The main thing is that defense is more troublesome. We have too few people! In such a big city, we don't even have enough people to stand on the city wall!"

"This is indeed a big problem. I'll go back to discuss it with Ying and let you know the result in a few days." Ziyue herself couldn't think of any solution for a while.

"What are you two doing now?"

"Since you have no problem, we have to go back to the port first. The Biling may be back soon!"

The Son of Night suddenly stuck out his head and shouted: "Purple Sun."

"What?"

"Should we let them take this statue away?"

"Why? Why do we need a stone statue?" Ziyue looked at the child of the night who only showed his head in the distance in confusion.

The child of the night stammered in Ziyue's eyes: "I...I found...this stone statue also...also...has a soul! Placing this statue in the city can...can comprehensively accelerate the health of the players in the city. Reply speed!”

"This thing can automatically restore blood?" Ziyue looked at the statue and said, "Well, move it back to Essinger!"

"Move back to Isengard?" Jin Coin pointed at this thing and said, "Are you crazy? This thing is almost as big as a hill!"

"It's okay! My magic pets are all heavy duty!" Ziyue turned around and summoned her magic pets: "Da Ming, Xiao Ming, come out!" The two Titans appeared together, probably because they have been upgraded more recently, which is better than what I saw last time. At that time, I was much taller.

The two Titans hugged the stone statue one on each side, but the stone statue did not move at all despite the loud noise!

"Hahahaha!" Jin Coin burst out laughing. "Are you too boastful? You can't move it at all! Do you think you have a bunch of demon pets like Zi Ri?"

Seeing Ziyue's obviously darkened expression, I quickly said: "My magic pets happened to be entangled too, so be it! Let them escort the things back to Isengard with you. It just so happens that you don't know the way, so let them help. You lead the way."

"Okay then!" Ziyue didn't get angry at all.

I turned around and said to the heavy demon pet: "You guys help me make a trip. After sending the things to Isengard, you can break the chains and fly back. Ling is in charge of the general command. If you have any questions, let her decide."

Ling said: "You don't need so many people to give something away, right?"

"It doesn't seem necessary. Now that there are two more Titans and a dragon, the task should be easier. In this way, you should lead the team. Lucky, Tank, Plague, and Crystal will definitely follow. Bring Xiaofeng and Please help Adi Na, and others should not go!" He turned to Ziyue and said, "You guys should leave quickly! Be careful on the road with this thing. I have other things to do and need to go somewhere else first."

"Okay then, bye!"

Watching this strange transport team transporting the giant mountain-like statue, I said to the Night Child next to me: "Okay, let's go too!"

Ye Zhizi looked at the giant dragon team flying away and said: "It's good to have a magic pet. If you can't drag yourself away, you can let the magic pet do it for you!"

"Not all magic pets can do this! My situation is quite special, maybe because my magic pets are of higher levels! Other people's magic pets can only move within the sight of the owner, and only my magic pet can move on its own. Go out and do errands!”

"Is that okay? You're not the son of the boss of a game development company, are you?"

The Son of the Night was just joking with me, but it sounded like I didn’t know how to answer, so I had to smile awkwardly!

"Let's go quickly! Yeying!" After riding on Yeying, we ran directly to the nearby city. The city of Liusi was still far away, so we could only use the teleportation array to get there. I could have used my teleportation ring, but I don't know why I can't use the teleportation ring to take the Night Child with me. The teleportation ring allows me to teleport with someone, but I can't bring the Children of the Night with me. What a strange thing!

After arriving at Liusi City, I discovered that this so-called Liusi City was just a village. Liusi City should be called Liusi Town more appropriately. As a small city, Liusi City is pitiful. Not only does it have no city walls, it doesn't even have a central square. There is only a large two-meter-high fence surrounding the city for self-comfort. The fence is strong enough to withstand rabbits, chickens and ducks, and even a sheep can destroy it. Destroy!

We can see the street directly without leaving the teleportation station. Unlike regular cities, almost all buildings in Liusi are made of bamboo and wooden structures. Most cities will have a huge teleportation array hall, but the teleportation array in Liusi City is found in a building that doesn't know whether it should be called a pavilion or a house.

After we left the teleportation hall, we looked around. Thatched houses were everywhere, and the dirt roads were full of animal and human footprints!

"Why is this place like this?" It was also the first time for the son of the night to see such a shabby city. Although he usually lived in a forest that was more chaotic than here, it was nature that was full of vitality. The situation here should be Call it ruin!

I grabbed a player who was passing us. "Excuse me, may I ask where the gem craftsman is?"

The guy who was pulled away said unhappily: "Go to a big city to find a gem craftsman! What are you looking for here? Are there any gem craftsmen in such a broken place?"

"Aren't there any lapidaries here?"

"Nonsense! This place doesn't even have a blacksmith or a gem craftsman? Let me go, I still have something to do!"

"Oh! I'm sorry!" I quickly let go of the other person, and the person ran away as soon as he got free.

The Son of the Night came over and said, "There are no gem craftsmen here at all. How should we find them?"

"I think it's not that he doesn't have it, it's that he doesn't do it! Clark told me that this guy has repaired gems, but he didn't say that he is a gem processor."

"Does it make any difference?"

"The difference is that he may only be good at repairing and polishing gems, rather than doing this as a job. He may be in the town himself, but he is not a gem craftsman here. So we should be looking for an NPC named Deken instead of a gem Craftsman." After saying that, I walked towards the shop next to me.

"Say it!" The NPC has always been very polite, and he won't get angry if he doesn't buy something.

"I would like to ask if there is a man named Deken living in this village?"

"Deken? Are you two looking for Deken?" The shop owner seemed shocked. "Are you not mistaken?"

"Yes, we're sure. I just want to know where Deken is!"

The shop owner thought for a while and said: "On the mountain behind, you keep walking along the mountain road until you reach the end of the road."

"He doesn't live in the city?" I asked strangely.

The boss didn't speak but nodded.

"Thank you then!" I turned around and ran out of the shop. "Son of Night, let's go." Summoning Night Shadow, the two of us ran directly towards the back hill.

Outside the village is a winding path leading to the mountain. Although the road is very narrow, it is still barely enough for Ye Ying to run. But this good thing ended not long after. The path became even narrower after entering the forest. The trees on both sides were very dense, and huge broad-leaved plants almost grew onto the road! Night Shadow in the form of a heavy armored dragon can no longer run on this road. I really have no choice but to let Night Shadow return to the form of nightmare. Although the Son of the Night and I are a little crowded on one horse, the current situation is very The time is coming to an end!

Because the woods were too dense, we could only see things within a dozen meters on both sides of the road, and it was pitch black further down. We didn't go very far when we started to notice something was not right. Not only was the road getting narrower, but also a faint mist began to appear in the surrounding trees.

Because the road kept getting narrower, it became impossible to walk anymore, so I had to put away the night shadow and start walking. Anyway, the night child was flickering here and there like a ghost, and the road conditions had little effect on him. As we walked, we suddenly found a small open space in the woods on the roadside. Out of curiosity, we walked over and saw a tombstone that was completely covered by weeds.

"What's this?"

"It's a tombstone! It looks like it lasted a long time!" I have seen many tombstones, and there are such things everywhere outside the Lost City.

"It's a very good design, but it's not as luxurious as the ones in my house!" Ye Zhizi is also an energetic guy.

"We'd better leave quickly!"

After leaving that tombstone and returning to the road, we came across another tombstone not far away. The strange thing is that there is another tombstone behind this tombstone. As we continued to move forward, there were more and more such tombstones, and finally they appeared in patches. At this scale, it seems that there are at least 3,000 people buried here.

"Have we entered the graveyard?" I looked at the surrounding forest that had been replaced by graves in confusion. The dense tombstones were almost stacked on top of each other.

"I feel bad!" Ye Zhizi looked around seriously. "There may be something wrong with our target!"

"you mean……?"

"I'm not sure yet, let's move forward first! We'll know whether my guess is accurate in a moment!"

After we continued to walk forward for a while, the road finally disappeared. The dense tombstones turned this place into a bush composed of tombstones. There was no human habitation at all around it, and some were just on the trees that were close to withered. Standing crow.

The Son of the Night suddenly appeared among the tombstones. I looked at him and asked him what he was doing there, but instead he waved me over. I stepped on the tombstone and jumped over, landing next to him. He pointed at a monument, and I followed his finger and looked over. "The necromancer Deken died in the year 1760 of the divine calendar."

"This guy has been dead for more than 30 years!" The Son of Night said the thing I least wanted to hear. Clark said that this Deken might have a way to repair my Dark Crystal, and I know that comforted me. What Clark really means is that no one can repair the Dark Crystal except Deken, and now the only guy is dead. Doesn't this mean that my crystal is finished!

Ye Zhizi comforted me: "It's nothing, isn't it just that the repair failed? Even if this guy is still on fire, it may not be able to be repaired!"

"Wait! What did you just say?" I asked the child of the night.

"I said it's nothing, isn't it just that the repair failed?"

"No, a little further back."

"Even if this guy is still on fire!"

"By the way, that's it!" I clapped my hands and said, "That's the problem, I think he is still alive!"

"Still alive?" The Son of the Night looked at me in surprise.

I deliberately tried to show off, but the Son of the Night quickly begged me for a long time before I said, "Look at that monument! What's engraved on it?"

"The necromancer Deken died in the year 1760 of the divine calendar!"

"That's right!" I nodded. "What is this Deken's profession? Necromancer! But the necromancer is immortal. The corpse of the necromancer actually appeared here. What a strange thing it is! Have you ever heard that the necromancer can die? And The content of the inscription is also very small, and it is not something that real family members should write at all. This all shows that this necromancer is deliberately leaking the news of his death, and he is consciously guiding other people's thoughts. He is actually pretending to be dead!"

"But it's very strange, why did he want to make news of his own death? What is it that deserves his anonymity?"

"It seems that this guy's problem is very serious. Let's find a way to find him first! Since he wants others to think he is dead, he must live in a sparsely populated place. I think it is very likely on this mountain , let’s look for it separately?”

"That's the only way it can be!"
