Chapter 23: Dead City(1/4)

In the temple, as Su Xiao opened the door of deathly silence, cold mist and gray-white cotton-like objects floated out from the cracks in the door. Along with them, there were feelings of death, ominousness, silence, etc.

Su Xiao looked inside the door, and the scene before her eyes was a white mist. Through the white mist, she could vaguely see the towering buildings in the distance. This was the source of Death City.

Buzz~

A wave that only Su Xiao could sense came from the Black King Armguard he was wearing. He felt that the Black King Armguard was resonating with something deep in the Dead City.

After the layout and investigation in the High Wall City, Su Xiao's purpose of exploring the Dead City this time is already very clear.

Located in the deepest part of the Dead Silence City, there is a building called the Supreme Sanctuary. The origin is sealed there, which is the source of the spread of Death Silence. Solving this thing will naturally end the cause and effect of Death Silence.

Many years ago, the Healing Church cut off a piece of the huge "origin" in the Supreme Sanctuary. This piece of "origin" was turned into the "initial source stone". Later, this "initial source stone" was divided into five parts.

If you want to enter the Supreme Sanctuary where the original power spreads, it is useless to have one or two "Origin Stones" in your body. Only by collecting five of them and letting them reunite into the "Initial Source Stone" can you be qualified to enter the Supreme Sanctuary.

.

At the moment, Su Xiao only has one "Origin Stone" given by the Archbishop, and there is still a long way to go before he can collect five of them and reach the "Initial Origin Stone".

The "proof" corresponding to the "Origin Stone", which is the Black King's Armguard, now shows characteristics that were not available before after opening the Door of Death.

Su Xiao raised his left arm, pulled up the cuff, and looked at the Black King Armguard that wrapped his left forearm and left hand. This armguard had multiple abilities, which could absorb the "Source Stone" and thereby enhance the wearer's ability.

Resistance to the power of death.

The amount of absorption is about 3. By then, even if Su Xiao does not use the [Shelter Stone], he will be able to move around in most areas of the Source and Dead City.

To be precise, the 12-hour shelter effect obtained after using [Shelter Stone] is more like a buff state, but this kind of shelter has levels.

Due to the recent sale of semi-finished [Shelter Stone], two guys, Caesar and Wood, listed the level of shelter in detail based on the difference between the semi-finished [Shelter Stone] and the normal [Shelter Stone].

The first is the semi-finished [Shelter Stone]. The shelter level of this thing is around level 3.5. In the outer areas of Dead Silence City, level 3 shelter is enough. If you go deep into the buildings on the outside, you need level 4 shelter.

So there are many victims... Well, many buyers of semi-finished [shelter stones] said that when they arrive in the construction area, they will be eroded by intermittent deathly silence, the kind where the tiger's body suddenly shakes, and the whole body is torn and painful,

His health dropped a bit, and when he turned around and ran back, he found that everything was fine again.

When a group of buyers came to settle accounts with Caesar, they found that Caesar had already run away.

A normal [Shelter Stone] can probably provide a level 5 shelter effect. Under normal circumstances, this level of shelter can go to most places in the Dead City.

If Su Xiao can make the Black King Armguard absorb about 3 pieces of "Origin Stone", then he can get a level 5 protection effect 24 hours a day. If he uses [Shelter Stone] again, the protection effect will be superimposed, which can reach level 8.

degree of asylum.

As for wanting to enter the Supreme Sanctuary, based on the general information given by the archbishop, Su Xiao estimated that one would need at least a level 40 or higher asylum level to be able to enter.

This also means that there is no other way now except to find all five Origin Stones so that the Black King's Armguard can absorb enough Origin Power.

As an alchemist, after Su Xiao got the first "Origin Stone", he didn't rush to find a way to absorb it with the Black King Armguard. Instead, he first thought of a way to make it. If it could be made, let alone 4, it would be missing.

40 pieces are no problem.

It is a pity that so far, Su Xiao has not figured out what the "Origin Stone" is. The energy properties of this thing are both high-level and complex, and it seems to be a fusion of several high-level energies.

Su Xiao took out the "Origin Stone", which attracted the attention of Sias and Wood. Sias said:

"Brother Bai Ye, this thing is ominous. You and I are close friends, so why don't you let me bear this omen for you..."

Before Sinyas could finish speaking, Su Xiao had activated the Black King's Armguard.

Ding~

The "Origin Stone" was adsorbed to the Black King's armguard, making a crisp sound and dissolving at the same time, and finally turned into a pure black energy, which was submerged into the Black King's armguard.

This gave Su Xiao a feeling that the Black King's Armguards had been somewhat completed. If more "Source Stones" could be absorbed, the Black King's Armguards would definitely be greatly improved.

He was not surprised by this. Theoretically speaking, the "Origin Stone" was the upper level of the Black King's Armguard. By absorbing it and ensuring that the amount absorbed was sufficient, it was natural for the Black King's Armguard to reach the upper level.

Seeing the "Origin Stone" being absorbed by the Black King's Armguard, the two good teammates on the side were very interested, but they did not mean to compete for the same category. After all, the three of them entered the Dead City for their own purposes this time.

Needless to say, the reason why Su Xiao entered the Dead City was to look for the black maple tree as well as other secret treasures to make up for the cost of entering this world.

Although Wood has guessed that the news that there is a black maple tree in Dead Silence City is false news deliberately released by his 'good teammate', but it has come, plus the resources provided by the clan to enter this world and go to Dead Silence City to find it.

A lap can be regarded as an explanation to the old devils in the clan. More importantly, it is to find the secret treasure to stop the loss, and even make a lot of money in turn.

Compared to Wood, Sias is a thief with obviously impure motives. The Death Star where this guy is located used to be an old rival with this world, that is, the Dark Continent, and he knows it better.

Although Sias was well hidden, Su Xiao always had a feeling that this guy was looking for something in Dead Silence City. Thinking about it, that thing was very important to the Ancient God System.

The door to death was wide open, Su Xiao, Wood, Sias, and Gulu stood side by side, while Bubo Wang, Amu, and Baha were behind Su Xiao.

The situation was at a standstill. No one wanted to be the first to enter the Deadly Silent City, especially under the premise that Su Xiao's Black King Armguard continued to resonate with some kind of existence deep in the Deadly Silent City.

"This stalemate is not the solution. Why don't we elect a leader?"

Sias opened his mouth. In the past, he would have been at the forefront because of his immortality. But after facing death, he knew that this time the situation was different from before.

After hearing the word "recommendation", Su Xiao and Wood, with calm and unanimous expressions, pushed out Sias who was standing in the middle, thus completing this physical selection.

Sias only had time to shout out half of a beautiful hometown dialect before he disappeared into the white mist and disappeared until there was no trace of breath left. It is obvious that the source of Death City is an independent area, otherwise the world would have been assimilated and eroded away.

Wood asked: "Is Sias okay?"

"perhaps."

"Then let's go in, you first?"

Wood made a gesture of invitation, showing off his devilish demeanor.

"..."

Su Xiao said nothing and walked into the white mist ahead.

In the white mist, the chill that originally stung the soul receded and was replaced by a sense of chaos in the space. This feeling was similar to the experience of being randomly teleported. Upon noticing this, Su Xiao felt something bad.

At this moment, a cold feeling came from the surroundings. Different from the biting chill just now, this time it was a cold that made people have goosebumps. In the chaotic space of white mist, lumbered dry arms came from the surrounding area.

He found the weirdest one and went straight to the back of Su Xiao's neck to grab it.

Zheng!

The slash marks disappeared in a flash. Su Xiao pressed the handle of the knife with one hand. Although the knife was not drawn out, the cutting edge was already out. Faced with such a surprise attack, the slash improved from the Blade Domain could be dealt with more efficiently.

The withered arm shattered in response, but at the break of the arm, trumpet arms intertwined together immediately grew out, forming a strange claw with the intention of attacking Su Xiao again.

"Moo."

Eminem's big hand greeted him.

Bang!

The surrounding chaotic space made a loud explosion-like sound, and even Su Xiao felt a buzzing in his ears. This change was obviously the hospitable people of the dead welcoming Su Xiao as the chosen one.

A force of space suction came in, and the scenes in front of Su Xiao blurred one after another, and was finally pulled out of the chaotic space.

Su Xiao squatted on the ground, and the white mist around him quickly dissipated. The buzzing in his ears lasted for a few seconds and then disappeared. His whole body also felt a little sore due to being in a chaotic space, and the things in front of him had double images.

After calming down for half a minute, Su Xiao returned to his full strength. It must be said that the power of the chaotic space this time was not small, and it took Su Xiao, who was used to teleportation from demons, to adapt to it for half a minute.

Before he had time to look around, a smell of blood wafted over. Su Xiao was not surprised. This was the City of Death, and there was danger everywhere. He looked in the direction where the smell of blood came from, and saw a figure lying on his side on the ground.

Gollum curled up.

"Woof?"

Somewhat confused about the east, west, and west, Bubu Wang stood up from the ground as if he was drunk, moved a few steps, and stood firm against the wall.

"I'm sorry, the force of this teleportation is too great, my head is buzzing."

Baha shook his head, and the world that was shaking left and right in front of his eyes gradually stabilized, and finally stabilized completely.

"I almost... almost died."

Gulu stood up from the ground, but due to the severe pain all over her body, she was still sitting sideways on the ground, with a few drops of blood dripping down her white chin. Looking at it, she was clearly doubting life.

Of course Gulu is not afraid of death, but she will never accept dying in this almost wild teleportation.

In fact, it was Gulu's unlucky one. Only the chosen ones were treated like this when entering the Dead City. This was also the reason why Wood's guy deliberately waited for a while and did not enter the white mist with Su Xiao.

Amu was attacked by the dead people in the chaotic space just now. It can be said that Amu contributed a lot. The arms of so many dead people reached out. Based on the situation at the time, it was almost inevitable that Su Xiao would be dragged away. At the critical moment, as a tank,

Eminem stepped forward and pushed back the dead people.

As for Eminem's location at this time, it is not known yet. It is estimated that he is deep in the Silent City.

Su Xiao looked around. This was a clothing store. The clockwork clock on the floor had stopped. The clothing fabrics hanging on the shelves were thick, weathered to the point of hardening, and all showed a dirty grease-black color.

The chandelier above is made of metal and has a complicated shape, which shows that the civilization of Dead City at that time was not backward. The corpse of a suspected clothing store owner is hanging on the chandelier. Judging from the white weathering of the bones, it seems that the corpse has been dead for some years.

From the few clothes hanging on the shelves, it can be seen that the shop owner has no intention of running the shop. Instead, the countertops are filled with bottles and cans, occupying most of the shop area.

A yellowed diary was placed in the most conspicuous place on the desk. Su Xiao picked it up and looked at it. The content was:

'Hahahahahahahaha...'

Su Xiao frowned, not knowing what the tailor was happy about. The first page of the last words diary was so happy. He continued to open it and found that there was not much written on each subsequent page. The content was as follows:

'It's all the Healing Church's fault. The Church has given up on us, and we can only survive on our own.'

‘torn pages’

'Thank you to the church for sending candles. It's great to still be able to see the light of the fire. Ina hasn't laughed for a long time, and the same goes for little Ivy.'
To be continued...
