Chapter 633 Chapter 30. City in the Lake
Annan is the most suitable candidate - in addition to the character praised by the Skeleton King, he is also weak and powerful.
At midnight, the Skeleton King asked Annan to come out with him.
Annan put on the burning blanket and followed the Skeleton King to the dark forest. A levitation spell was applied to him, pulling him up to the canopy of the tree.
Then Annan saw from a distance that the dark night in the distance suddenly burst out into a dreamy and brilliant light spot, which merged into the stars in the sky.
"This shows that the princess is still controlling the Lost City."
The blurred halo lasted for dozens of seconds and gradually dimmed. The Skeleton King cast his eyes towards a dark forest: "Let's go back..."
Falling back into the tomb, the stone door was closed. Annan sat in front of the bonfire and looked at the Skeleton King who cast spells on the door.
"What should I pay attention to after setting off?"
"The night belongs to them, don't stay too long at night and in places without light. Others are the same as before, stay away from irrational things, but One more thing to add, stay away from things that are common sense.”
"Why?"
"Is there a little girl holding a doll standing on the street among the ruins of the rat-man-infested ruins?"
"You are right... ..."
"Also, you'd better not be in Yiwen City for more than three days. If you haven't found the princess and the truth, come back..."
"Why?" Annan's question. A bit much.
"The weird smell will continue to affect you."
"I understand."
Before meditating, Annan asked: "Can I bring lemons?"
"Magical creatures are naturally monstrous bodies."
"Forget it."
Lemon is not an ordinary water element, it is his eternal summon.
The night was spent in Skeleton King's quiet experiment and Annan's meditation. Occasionally, disturbing shadows linger outside the cemetery, which are also blocked by high-level spells.
The next day, the Skeleton King opened the stone door and let the early morning forest dew wash away the turbid air in the tomb.
Annan ended his meditation. In order to save time, he just ate some bread, followed the Skeleton King on the skeleton carriage, and went deep into the dead forest.
Two hours later, a lake as vast as the sea blocked the road ahead of them.
In the middle of the lake, Annan saw a city in the lake.
A majestic mountain city standing on the mountain is surrounded and defended by three walls. It simply does not look like it was built by manpower. The three white city walls are like the halo of gods, shining in the sun.
Countless towers stand in the city in the lake. These towers are either made of crystal, obsidian, or stone bricks. They are the embodiment of the belief in gods, and they are also a powerful symbol of Lost City.
If there were seagulls hovering in the distance and countless boats floating on the lake, Annan really thought he was in Wilhelm.
But now, the pearl-like city in the lake in the distance is lifeless, with no living creatures hovering in the sky. The deep lake is bottomless, and ownerless ships that have run aground and run aground are abandoned around the lake.
"You didn't tell me that Yiwen City is surrounded by lakes..." Annan said, looking at the endless lake.
"Are you afraid of water?"
"I'm afraid of things in the water."
Even outside, the ocean is dangerous. During the Xingyue Bay period, their ships never dared to leave the coastline too far.
The Sea Tribe and the abominable beasts such as Dagon live in the deep sea. Who knows if there might be some giant creature lurking in the strangely polluted lake?
"Then there is another way."
The Skeleton King continued to drive the skeleton carriage around the lakeside. During this period, they avoided some camps. Annan saw traces of people and soldiers in those camps. It seemed that the southern countries had finally taken action.
This is good news. Annan will not be too lonely after entering the Lost City——
Near noon, the skeleton carriage that circled the lake half circle stopped. On a road in the lake that extends straight to the city in the lake.
"It's just that shipping cannot support the prosperity of Lost City." The Skeleton King said.
The road in the lake, which is only about ten meters wide, looks like it will be washed away by a wave... but it is better than facing the lake directly.
“Give you this.”
The Skeleton King handed Annan a magic bag and taught him how to pour out the bone powder and how to release and release it.
Annan recited a spell, and the scattered bone powder seemed to be carried by a gust of wind, turning into a skeleton horse with soul fire burning in its eyes.
"It will bring you to the Lost City. Remember, when night falls, hide yourself in a safe place."
Annan put the burnt blanket into his pocket, climbed on the back of the skeleton horse, Go away along the road in the lake leading to Lost City.
The Skeleton King watched as the road between Annan and the lake turned into black dots and lines. He returned to the withered forest by the lake, sprinkled a piece of bone powder, and the skeletons who climbed up began to dig a new cemetery in the forest. ……
……
The closer he got to the city in the lake, the more Annan was in awe of this city built by the gods himself.
In front of the tall but desolate city gate, Annan climbed off the skeleton horse, collected the bone meal, and entered the Lost City.
Walking among the empty streets, Annan looked left and right. This place is much more complete than the old royal city of the Ruikaner Kingdom...weird and not rat-men, they have no interest in destruction and destruction.
At least this is true for inanimate buildings.
The houses on the street look normal, but Skeleton King said that normal means abnormal...
Suddenly, an upside-down house stood strangely between this row of houses, turning into a house. The top foundation is still covered with dirt... This is definitely not normal.
Annan bypassed the upside-down hut and walked toward the second city wall.
At a certain moment, an old man suddenly ran out of a roadside shop in a hurry and staggered: "Please help me..."
Annan stared at the old man and stepped back to take it. He took out the charred blanket in his pocket and asked in a low voice: "Is he one of your kind?"
The charred silhouette crawled out of Annan's shadow and stared at the old man, while the old man who thought he had been saved fearfully Backing up, he tripped over a stone and screamed as he climbed: "Get away, get away! Holy Dragon God, please send down the light of salvation and help your humble servant..."
Jiaohei The silhouette shook his head slowly, it seemed that he was a living person.
"If you keep shouting, you will call all the weird people around you... She is my companion. I am going to the royal city to find the princess. Who are you?"
The old man closed his mouth first, and then confirmed it for a while. , and then he said that he was the patriarch of the Fischer family, and he returned to Strange City to find something.
"I have important things stolen from me..."
The old patriarch stayed in Yiwen City for two days, always hovering on the periphery and not daring to go deep. He looked a little delirious and said incoherently: "Do you accept the commission? I want to entrust you to go to Fischer Manor to find the stolen things..."
Fischer Manor is in the inner city, It was a smooth journey, but Annan rejected him: finding things in Yiwen City is not an easy task nowadays..."
"That's right. You have no reason to accept the commission. I have nothing but money..."
The old patriarch held his head in pain.
"How much?"
