Chapter 891 Xiong Ziqi’s Request
Chen Lin stood on the street, watching the golden light disappear, showing a thoughtful look.
Unexpectedly, the flying underwater palace turned out to be a fairy palace, and there was a passage out of this world.
In this case, you should go take a look.
Even strong men such as Resuscitator and Wu Xingma are so afraid of the Youluo clone. Naturally, he has no ability to fight against it. If these masters leave this world and no one controls the seal, then Youluo's clone will not be able to fight against it. Luo's clone will run out sooner or later, and then he will have no other choice but to hide in the nightmare world.
"Let's go back and have a look!"
Chen Lin withdrew his gaze from the Silver Light Palace, greeted Xiaocao, and left the city.
There is no need to use the spirit boat on the return trip, just travel through the void across the Sea of Broken Souls, and then use the teleportation jade talisman to return to the underground node.
"How is it? Is there anything abnormal?"
Chen Lin took Xiaocao out of the formation range and asked aloud.
Wu Wanshan was on duty next to the node at this time. When he saw movement in the teleportation array, he was already waiting outside the defensive formation.
"Replying to your lord, everything is normal."
Wu Wanshan replied, and then glanced at the grass behind Chen Lin, Mu Lu looked surprised.
He is also a Yuanying monk and can detect the specialness of Xiaocao.
Chen Lin did not explain it. After asking some questions, he opened the node and used the crow puppet to enter and explore it. After confirming that there was no change, he entered it.
He led Xiaocao around the room and explained the situation in detail to the other party. Then he looked at Li Fuyao's picture scroll. Seeing that there was still no response, he shook his head and left.
In Zhiwu County.
Chen Lin returned to his original form and came to his house first.
I found that the house had been built, and it was very grand. There was also a shop built on the street, and the hired housekeeper was directing the workers to decorate it outside the shop.
"Sir, you are back!"
The housekeeper was a kind-hearted old man. When he saw Chen Lin appear, he immediately came up to him excitedly, saluted and said.
"Oh? What's the matter?"
Chen Lin looked confused.
The old housekeeper hurriedly replied: "Yes, my lord, the county magistrate has sent people to look for you several times, and Capt. Jin has also come here twice. It seems there is something urgent."
"The county magistrate is looking for me?"
Chen Lin became more and more confused.
If Xiong Ziqi is looking for him, he can go to Taiqing Mountain to find Chen Ling'er and the others, and Chen Ling'er will naturally pass the news to him.
His face couldn't help but change when he thought of this. Could it be that something went wrong with Chen Ling'er and the others?
In a hurry, Chen Lin immediately contacted Hua Ruyu with a special induction, and Hua Ruyu came to his side immediately.
“The master is back? Hey, sister Xiaocao, you’re awake!”
Hua Ruyu greeted Chen Lin and immediately saw the grass behind Chen Lin, showing a look of surprise.
"Sister Hua!"
Xiaocao also showed a rare smile and stepped forward to hold Hua Ruyu's hand, looking very intimate.
Chen Lin felt relieved when he saw this. Judging from the appearance of Hua Ruyu, nothing happened.
But he still asked: "How is it over there at Taiqing Mountain? Is everything okay?"
"Master, everything is fine. We also set up a mountain-protecting formation there and used bone fragments to create a training place without nightmare energy. Ling'er and the others can use spiritual crystals and elixirs to practice there."
"Mountain Protection Formation?"
Chen Lin understood something in his heart. It is estimated that Xiong Ziqi has also been to Taiqing Mountain, but was blocked by the formation. It was difficult for the other party to break through the formation, so he asked the old housekeeper to help pass it on information.
But he immediately wondered: "What materials did you use to set up the formation? Hasn't it been transformed into a nightmare?"
In the nightmare world, even the spirit treasures of the Condensing Level can't be transformed into nightmares. It will also be transformed into a nightmare, but the spirit treasure has a weapon spirit and has higher resistance.
Therefore, unless the formation equipment of the nightmare world is used, the formation disk from the outside cannot be used. Once it is transformed into a nightmare, it is difficult to determine what effect it will have, and it is very dangerous.
Hua Ruyu smiled and said: "It is a Nightmare Realm array that Ling'er collected before. It is very powerful and just covers the surrounding area of the waterfall. However, the spiritual crystal cannot be used. As energy, you need to use Nightmare Coins. "
Chen Lin knew that Chen Ling'er liked to collect Nightmare World items, but he didn't expect to collect array disks, which was good luck.
But immediately he had a sudden thought and asked hurriedly: "How many Nightmare Coins are needed to activate the formation disk, and how long can it last each time?"
Nightmare Coins can be used as an energy source. , this information was learned from Xiong Ziqi, but Xiong Ziqi didn't know exactly how much energy a nightmare coin had, and the opponent didn't have any treasures that could be driven by nightmare coins.
Hua Ruyu knew Chen Lin's worries and immediately replied: "Not much, one nightmare coin can activate the formation disk, and it can last for a month at a time."
One nightmare coin a month , but it’s really not much.
While Chen Lin's heart dropped, he was also secretly surprised. A small nightmare coin contained a lot of energy, and he didn't know what the nightmare coin was made of.
If it is ore, there will definitely be veins. When exploring other scenes in the future, you can pay attention to such veins.
However, he felt that the Nightmare Coin was not like an ore or a metal. Not only was it extremely hard in texture, but it was also integrated with no trace of casting. Even the patterns on it looked as if they were made by nature.
He tends to be a product of rules. The same goes for road guides. These things that represent the basic rules of the nightmare world are probably derived from the rules themselves.
Chen Lin had itchy teeth.
Nightmare coins are rare. Even one nightmare coin a month is still a big expense over the years.
This girl Chen Ling'er really doesn't feel bad about spending my money. You must know that he is a first-class official and his salary is only ten nightmare coins a month. If it was one coin a month before, it would be just enough. The formation is consumed, and the whole family has to drink the northwest wind.
Since everything was normal at Taiqing Mountain, Chen Lin was not in a hurry to go there, but went straight to the county government with Hua Ruyu and Xiaocao.
He was also curious as to why Xiong Ziqi was so anxious to find him.
“I’ve met Brother Xiong!”
In the backyard of the county government office, Chen Lin saw Xiong Ziqi and immediately greeted him with a smile.
No matter what friction they had before, they are now considered friends, or at least allies.
"Hahaha, Brother Chen is really a busy man. He disappears for three or four years even if he doesn't show up. Don't you worry about a fire in the backyard?"
Xiong Ziqi greeted him with a smile, looking very cordial.
Immediately glanced at Xiaocao behind Chen Lin, and asked in surprise: "Who is this?"
He is also a monk, so he can naturally sense the powerful sword intention in Xiaocao, and That faint breath of nightmare.
"This is mine..."
Chen Lin was speechless for a moment.
When he introduced Xiaocao before, he said she was his sister. Now that the two have a close relationship, it is really hard to say that anymore.
If you talk about concubine or lady, Xiaocao will definitely be embarrassed.
After pondering for a while, he replied normally: "This is my maid, named Xiaocao. She has a somewhat withdrawn personality and is not sociable."
After speaking, she glanced at Xiaocao.
Xiaocao just stood there expressionless, as if he didn't care about anyone.
Chen Lin felt helpless, but he did not let the other party meet Xiong Ziqi.
Xiong Ziqi didn't care, but felt a little jealous of Chen Lin in his heart.
I don’t know how this kid did it. He was able to receive such a powerful nightmare creature as his subordinates, and there were two of them!
Chen Lin didn't want the other party's attention to be on Xiaocao, so he changed the subject and said, "Why didn't you see Brother Jin? Did you go out to do something?"
Xiong Ziqi immediately shook his head and said: "If no outsiders appear, this county will basically not need to be managed. Jin Captou took people to the outer wasteland. He wanted to try his luck and see if he could find clues to leave the mission. .”
Chen Lin nodded.
For Xiong Ziqi and his wife, nothing is more important than finding the mission to leave.
But this had little to do with him, so he asked again: "I heard from my old housekeeper that Brother Xiong has been looking for me, but what's the matter?"
Xiong Zi's anecdote Yan's smile suddenly disappeared, and his face changed to a sad one: "Brother, I don't know. For some reason, a year ago, Jin Zhenshan and I felt that the power of rejection suddenly intensified. It was several times stronger than before, and it is still continuing. "
After glancing at Chen Lin, he continued: "When the projection enters the nightmare world, the repelling power is constantly intensifying. I think brothers know this. But even so, I think our strength can still last for thousands of years. Time, but with such a change, it will take less than a hundred years at most, and I am afraid that I will not be able to hold on and be expelled. If I have not completed the task of leaving by then, I will definitely die."
Chen Lin's face also became solemn. stand up.
The other person’s today may be his tomorrow, so we have to pay attention to it.
"Brother Xiong means that the repulsive force here has suddenly increased? But I didn't notice that the nightmare energy here has become thicker. What could be the reason?"
Xiong Ziqi shook his head.
"I'm not sure about this, but according to time calculation, it's exactly a thousand years since we entered this place. I wonder if there is some thousand-year catastrophe?"
Chen Lin frowned and didn't know. Sure.
But even if it is not a thousand-year catastrophe, it must be related to the fact that the other party stayed in the nightmare world for too long.
This alarmed him.
There are such disadvantages in the projection state, and it is very likely that the real body will come in. The idea of building a stronghold in the nightmare world needs to be carefully considered.
"Then what Brother Xiong is asking for is that you want me to help you find clues to your mission?"
Chen Lin took the initiative to ask.
Xiong Ziqi shook his head and sighed: "We have been searching for a thousand years, and we have almost dug into the entire scene. It is unrealistic to find it within a hundred years. I even doubt what this poor place is. Whether there is a mission to leave, maybe he is a Jedi."
Chen Lin was speechless, waiting for the other party's next words.
What the other party said is not impossible. There is absolutely no reason to talk about the nightmare world.
Xiong Ziqi focused his attention on the shepherding order on Chen Lin's waist and said, "My purpose is to ask my brother to help contact Princess Gegeyun to see if the other party has any way to solve our crisis."
Pause, with hope Ji Zhise said: "Or ask the other party to help contact a guardian. As far as I know, the guardian has extremely high authority and will definitely allow us to exempt ourselves from the mission and leave directly!"
