Chapter 299 West Coast - The Danger of the Hanging City
The mysterious and dangerous Hanging City is extremely bright outside, and the scenery looks beautiful, surrounded by clouds and mist, as if it is suspended in the void. Ancient buildings are looming, and the city walls are made of unknown solid materials and are engraved with strange runes and patterns, which seem to tell ancient stories. The passages in the city are narrow and winding, the light is dim, and the swaying magic lights flicker on and off, casting strange shadows. The ground is rugged, and traces of battle can be seen everywhere, with broken stones and rubble scattered everywhere. The air was filled with mysterious energy fluctuations, and a feeling of depression came over me. Strange sounds come from time to time, like calls from ancient times, or threats from monsters hiding in the dark. High up, huge magic chains crisscrossed each other, connecting various platforms and buildings. They exuded mysterious light and maintained the balance and stability of the hanging city. In some corners, the mysterious magic circle shines faintly, and it is unknown what kind of danger or opportunity it will trigger.
Guo Zhan and Tian Ying stepped into the Hanging City and were attracted by the mysterious environment. Guo Zhan's eyes flashed with curiosity and he said softly: "Yingying, this place is full of weirdness, we have to be careful." Tian Ying nodded slightly, held the cannon tightly, and scanned the surroundings with her big eyes vigilantly.
"Brother, what secrets do you think this city has?" Tian Ying couldn't help but ask.
Guo Zhan frowned slightly, and after thinking for a moment, he said: "It's hard to say, but it's definitely not simple. Let's explore carefully first and don't act rashly."
They walked slowly through a narrow passage, Every step is taken with extreme caution. At this time, the mysterious atmosphere around them became more and more intense, as if there were countless pairs of eyes peering at them from the dark. Guo Zhan secretly thought about the origin and hidden secrets of the hanging city, while Tian Ying was attracted by the strange runes and magic circles and was filled with curiosity.
"Brother, look at these runes, there seems to be some pattern." Tian Ying pointed at the runes on the wall and said.
Guo Zhan came closer and observed carefully, "Well, it is indeed a bit strange, but I can't see any specific effect yet."
Continuing forward, their footsteps sounded in the silent passage Seems extremely clear. Suddenly, there was a slight sound of metal friction. The sound was like a war drum from ancient times, with a heavy sense of oppression. The two immediately stopped and stared nervously ahead. Only a few figures were seen looming, and gradually, the majestic and powerful appearance of the sword knight appeared in front of them.
The Sword Knights wore heavy armor. The armor seemed to be made of thousands of years of black iron, exuding a cold and hard aura. Each nail leaf fits tightly together, forming an impenetrable line of defense. The surface of the armor is engraved with mysterious lines. These lines are like ancient spells and contain powerful power. In the dim light, the armor shimmered faintly, like stars in the night sky, making people feel both awe and fear.
It turned out that the sword knights were all pretending to be armors, standing there quietly, like silent sculptures. Their presence makes it difficult to detect the real threat, as if they are just decorations in this mysterious suspended city. However, when Guo Zhan and Tian Ying approached, the sword knights seemed to have been lifted from some kind of seal, and a powerful aura suddenly erupted. The armor on their bodies seemed to be alive, and they quickly shed their disguises, revealing their true bodies.
These sword knights are all tall and mighty, the swords in their hands emit a cold light, and the shields are indestructible. Their eyes were cold and sharp, as if they could penetrate everything. The moment they revealed their true bodies, they didn't hesitate at all and immediately launched a surprise attack with their sharp swords.
The shadow of the sword roared in like a violent storm, and the speed was so fast that it was dizzying. Guo Zhan and Tian Ying were hit by this sudden attack before they had time to react. The powerful impact caused their bodies to retreat involuntarily.
After being knocked back a few steps, Tian Ying quickly stabilized her figure, a trace of anger flashing in her eyes. Guo Zhan tightly held the lightsaber in his hand, secretly surprised.
But there was no time to think, and he fought with the sword knights.
In this chaotic situation, they must adjust their status as soon as possible, otherwise they will face more severe challenges.
"Damn! These guys are so difficult to deal with." Guo Zhan cursed in a low voice, feeling a little anxious. He quickly thought about how to deal with it, holding the lightsaber tightly in his hand.
Tian Ying had an angry look on her face: "Hmph, taste how powerful I am!" Her fiery temper was instantly ignited, the hand cannon roared again, and the cannon shells roared out, exploding in the enemy group. , the powerful impact caused the sword knights to stagger. But the sword knights quickly adjusted their status and continued to attack fiercely. At this time, the battle became more and more intense. Guo Zhan's heart tightened. He danced with the lightsaber in his hand. The falling silver blade instantly launched and fell to the ground like a meteor. The shock wave brought up a cloud of dust. Then he danced with both hands to attack the sword knight.
However, the Sword Knights were very good at blocking and easily defused Guo Zhan's attack. Then, they moved and swung their swords to attack. Their flexible bodies made it difficult for Guo Zhan to follow the trajectory of their attacks.
"Yingying, be careful! Don't be too impulsive." Guo Zhan shouted while resisting the sword knight's attack.
"Brother, I'm not afraid of them." Tian Ying responded stubbornly.
Tian Ying looked at the surrounding environment and made secret calculations in her heart. She constantly switches the form of the big gun on her back, sometimes firing anti-tank cannons to hit the enemy's vital points accurately; sometimes she releases laser cannons, which shine brightly, so that the sword knights cannot easily get close. Gatling guns poured down like a torrential rain, and the flames of flamethrowers plunged the enemy into a sea of flames.
While the battle was raging, Guo Zhan inadvertently caught a glimpse of a mysterious passage, with a strange light flashing faintly in the passage. A curiosity arose in his heart, and he couldn't help but take a few more glances. Tian Ying also noticed it, and she was attracted by the mystery at this moment.
"Guo Zhan, where is that place?" Tian Ying asked while attacking the sword knight.
"I don't know, but it feels unusual. Maybe there are some treasures or clues." Guo Zhan responded.
The curiosity in the two people's hearts became more and more intense. While resisting the attack of the sword knight, they looked at the passage from time to time. However, the sword knights' attacks became more and more fierce, leaving them overwhelmed.
At this time, the situation became increasingly critical, and Guo Zhan was keenly aware that the sword knights might enter a certain enhanced state after being attacked to a certain extent. He was anxious and knew that he could not continue to entangle.
"Tian Ying, leave quickly! We can't fight anymore, otherwise we will be in a desperate situation." Guo Zhan shouted.
Tian Ying was very reluctant, she thought: Just leave like this? I'm not convinced, there's still that mysterious passage that I haven't explored yet.
But seeing Guo Zhan's serious expression, he also understood the critical nature of the situation.
"Okay, brother, let's withdraw first." Tian Ying said helplessly.
The two quickly turned around and galloped towards the Sky City. Their figures passed quickly across the battlefield, leaving behind a trail of afterimages. Along the way, the wind whistled in their ears, and their breathing was rapid and heavy as they ran towards the City in the Sky.
They know that only by being with their partners can they better cope with the next challenges. In this mysterious and dangerous hanging city, their adventure has just begun.
