Chapter 94 The City of the Dead

"Wow...this...this...this is really super spectacular!" Zhenhong's speech was a little unscrupulous.

"How many people do you need to fill the entire lake?" Jin Jin asked.

Rose just glanced at it and said, "About 700,000 people. Considering the different proportions of dry bones and semi-rotten corpses, the error is about 100,000 people."

"That is to say, there are at least 600,000 corpses here?" Christina asked.

I nodded and said, "Rose's estimate should be relatively accurate."

"Okay, now I regret not being transferred to the Undead Department!" Christina said jokingly, and the purpose was nothing more than to make everyone feel a little relaxed. The atmosphere on the scene was too depressing, and everyone was trembling in their hearts when they saw it.

"Oh, it seems that our investment has responded." As I finished speaking, the deceased's hot spring suddenly moved again. The corpse was full of tumbling and twisting, and it seemed as if something was moving under the corpse, and it was obviously coming towards us.

Because the speed was very fast, the thing quickly reached the shore near us, and then I saw the bones on the shore of the lake turn around, and then all the bones began to move quickly to both sides, revealing a passage in the pile of bones. Almost as the passage was completed, a skeleton wearing a ragged cloth robe and holding a huge sickle in his hand slowly walked out of the passage.

Although this guy looks like a skeleton, if you really treat it as a skeleton soldier, you are really looking for death, because the scythe in the hand of this guy in front of you has clearly told us that this is a god of death.

Death is not a god's name in the game, but refers specifically to a type of NPC creature. Of course, if you want to say it is a monster or a wavess, it is such a non-player character set by the system. Although they only have more robes than ordinary skeletons and carry a sickle, this branch is actually completely unrelated to the skeletons. They are a more extreme existence than the Lich. Although they are slightly inferior to the Lich in terms of knowledge and magical abilities, this race has combat power far exceeding the Lich. They are different from the all-round lich. Death is a combat machine. They are the harvesters on the battlefield. All enemies are weeds to them.

Because the settings are very powerful, the number of Death God is quite rare. After all, it is an extreme force type. If there are a large number, players will not live.

Although there are fewer people like Death, there are many players who know them. After all, every time this thing appears, it is accompanied by the death of a large group of players. So players are extremely careful about this race. As for the one in front of us... it should be considered as the middle and lower level of Death, or the worst type of Death.

In fact, the god of death is divided into different levels, but in fact, the god of death we see in most situations is the kind of person in front of us. They are the worst group among the god of death, but most of the impressions of the god of death come from this kind of god of death. Therefore, it can be said that even the worst god of death cannot be underestimated.

Seeing this god of death come out, everyone on our side maintained the greatest calmness and no one acted rashly. It’s not that we couldn’t beat him, but we wanted to get more information from this guy, so we didn’t attack him.

After the death god completely rose from the passage, he immediately collapsed forward and came directly to the shore.

Death is not a low-level skeleton soldier. They have very high-end intelligence, so after this Death appears, it does not rush up like an ordinary low-level undead. Instead, he first looked around us with his black eye sockets, and then he suddenly bowed slightly to salute us. To be honest, if ordinary people see this scene, they will definitely be shocked, because Death is almost one of the most untouchable types of wave ss. At present, the success rate of the task of challenging such wave ss is less than 10%, which shows the power of such wave ss. In this case, Death should not take anyone seriously, but the Death in front of us salutes first. This is definitely not the treatment that normal people should receive.

"I think you should be the leader of this group of people, right?" The god of death immediately looked at me and asked. Through the two holes in his eye socket, you can directly see two purple soul fires burning in his eyes. Although the god of death looks not high, it is actually on the verge of evolution. The soul fire in his eyes shows that this guy is changing to a higher level, because the pure low-level god of death only has one ball of fox fire, which is in the position where the brain was originally stored in the skull cavity. Therefore, normally, what you see from the eyes of a skull should be a large group of soul fire burning in his brain. However, in fact, this guy has his own independent soul fire in his eyes, and the main soul fire in his brain position is also hidden, covering a layer of darkness outside, and there is no way to see the situation inside.

"I am Zi Ri, the president of the Frost Rose Alliance. These are my subordinates. Are you the owner of this place or just living here?"

"I am just a guard here, neither the owner nor just living here."

"Guard?" I looked at the god of death in confusion and asked, "Do you have another organization here?"

"Yes." said the god of death, "Do you want to get inside or do you have any need?"

"Can we go in?" Rose asked directly over me.

The god of death turned his head and looked at Rose, but because the skeleton could not show expressions or eyes, we couldn't tell what he meant. However, the guy quickly spoke: "If you can follow some necessary rules, we allow outsiders to enter here. However, I need to explain to you first. If you accidentally fuck it up here, we won't care."

"Of course," I said, "We have the ability to protect ourselves."

The God of Death nodded and said, "I know very well, so I will let you in. Otherwise, you will not see me at all." The God of Death immediately said, "In addition, let me tell you that there is a city entrance fee here, so you need to decide whether to go in for yourself."

"Does all those who come here need to pay for entering the city?" asked Rose.

"No, it's free for residents in this city to enter and exit, but you are outsiders. So..."

"What about the charging standards? What settlement do you use?"

"Our currency is mainly high-energy crystals, but all other items with magical power can be used as currency, so it is better to say magic cores or something. Of course, the crystals you just provided with dark energy attributes are more expensive."

"So what is our entry fee?"

"Fifteen units of magic power per person."

"What is a unit?"

The god of death hesitated for a moment, but finally reached out to take out a purple currency from his chest that looked like crystal. However, the processing method of this thing is very strange. It is actually cast. A crystal that can be cast, which is new. However, this is not what we need to care about now.

After the death god took out the currency, he said, "Be careful, this is a very large currency. I can only get ten such purple magic crystal coins for one year. The value of this purple magic crystal coin is 10,000 units of magic energy."

"Can I feel it?" Christina asked.

The god of death was obviously hesitant. But Rose reacted quickly. He stuffed a piece of uncut black crystal, which was quite large, and passed it over. After seeing this crystal, the other party immediately handed over the purple magic crystal coin. "Look slowly, it's yours."

Christina is the person with the strongest magic perception here. So after a simple experiment, we can tell the energy density of this purple magic crystal coin. According to Christina's test, we were obviously doing a loss-making business just now because the energy in the black crystal is at least equal to one and a half of this purple magic crystal coin. More importantly, according to the Death God, dark energy is a more expensive currency, and the purple magic crystal coin contains only ordinary magic power. In this way, the black crystal we gave is at least equal to more than twenty pieces of this purple magic crystal coin.

Although we made a loss, because we let him take advantage of it, the God of Death became very enthusiastic about us and began to introduce some general situations here. In fact, if it weren't for our unexpected gains from the God of Death, we would like to know these common sense things that would definitely be even greater. Moreover, we didn't care much about the black crystal ore.

According to the introduction of the God of Death, this place should be a complete city of undead, full of all kinds of undead creatures. These undead creatures live in this place, and the Dead Hot Spring above will continuously provide fresh blood for it, so this place is unexpectedly quite prosperous.

In this city of the dead, everyone lives like residents of ordinary cities. Because few light forces appear here, the undead creatures here do not have a high degree of disgust towards the light system. The main reason is that they have too little contact. Many undeads don’t even know what kind of damage the light attribute will cause to them.

Because the undead itself is a kind of creature with very low consumption, they do not need to produce much material. The survival of ordinary undead is enough by relying on their own absorption. Therefore, there is no need for food supply here, and there is little need for things like clothes. As for the living environment... let alone that. The undead rarely pick on the living environment.

However, although these undead seem to have no demand, the city is not really as dead as a dead city. On the contrary, this place is actually quite lively.

First of all, although the undead here does not have the need for survival pressure, self-evolution and becoming stronger will always be the ultimate goal of the undead. Therefore, these guys are eager for methods and items that can improve their strength. If there is demand, there will be a market. Over time, it will naturally form a considerable scale.

Secondly, in addition to these struggles for strength, the undead also has some psychological needs. Although the body, even if it does not exist at all, is completely helpless. However, because there is no body to enjoy material life, the undead has even more desire for comfort in the spiritual world.

Based on the above two basic needs, this undead city actually flourished unexpectedly. Not only are there many undead inside, but it also forms a fixed trading market. Therefore, it can be said that this place is a undead version of a commercial city. Of course, this is what the God of Death tells us, and we have not seen the inside of the city yet.

In addition to telling us the basic situation here, Death also told us some more important information. First, the details of the monetary system in this place. Although we can also trade raw ore, it is best to go to a special bank to exchange it. They can purchase ore and then convert it to the official currency here. The advantage of doing this is that it will not be hacked. The energy structure of the ore itself is unstable, so there is no way to quantify it in detail. Moreover, because of inconvenience in carrying, sellers will use various excuses to lower the price. This causes certain losses. If you go to the bank to exchange, although a certain fee will be charged, it is actually a safer and more economical way.

In addition to currency, there are some other special attempts in this place.

One of the special common sense is that you must not use the ability of the Light System in this place. Otherwise you will definitely be besieged. Of course, we can understand this information, but there are some things we don’t understand in this place. For example, the undead in this place all have their own personalities. The undead in the skeleton system are all simple, the zombie system is all reckless, and the ghosts are very sinister. Anyway, each race has its own characteristics.

With curiosity, we quickly passed the passage with this god of death and entered the city of the undead. It was actually located on the island in the middle of the lake we saw before. However, the area of ​​this place is obviously not as small as the outside. It should have used spells similar to compression space inside, so the island seems not big from the outside, but after entering, I found that this place is not only not small, but even a bit too big.

"Wow, is this place simply a paradise for dark fans?" The gold coins were called out directly after entering this city.

In fact, in reality and in the game, there are many dark mystery. They all like things like undead or skeletons and think these things are very cool. In fact, I am one of them, otherwise I wouldn’t have regarded Aisinger as the headquarters of the guild at the beginning. It’s just that because Aisinger is the city of Demons and is in a dark style, I especially like Aisinger.

Although the city in front of me is both dark and Aisinger, the specific architectural styles are very different. Aisinger is basically black, and most of the buildings in the city are black, either dark purple, and golden hooks are used uniformly, red or blue are used as decorative colors. Anyway, no matter what kind of building it is, they are basically these colors. Colors such as white or green are basically invisible to Aisinger because it is not the style that the dark system should have.

However, the city in front of you is almost pure white. Of course, don’t think of a gospel of heaven just because I say this city is pure white. In fact, the main reason why this city is pure white is that it is almost completely built with bones.

All buildings in the city use a large number of bones, some of which are giant monsters, some of which are humans, and some other animals. Anyway, these are all white bones, and then they use a grayish-white adhesive to fill the joints and use them as adhesives. The buildings built in this way are naturally white. After we asked the God of Death who had not left, we learned that the adhesives used in this building were actually mixed with ashes powder and some special substances. In other words, these adhesives are essentially bones.

In addition to using a large number of bones to build the city, various types of skulls can be seen everywhere in this city. Although there are the most human-shaped skulls, there are also many of them with various monsters and even dragons. These skulls are all placed on the main streets of the city, and their purpose is actually decorative objects. Of course, there are also skulls that are widely used on various buildings in the city, and there are even the entire wall with the skulls on the front faces of the skulls. This evil style really makes me a little excited.

"Okay, this place is inside the city, you can move freely. But remember, don't enter other people's houses without authorization. Stores that are open to the public have doors. If the door is closed, don't open it, otherwise it will be very bad. Then goodbye, I hope you can come out alive." After that guy finished speaking, he turned back into the previous passage. Obviously, he had a task here and could not run around casually.

Although a city full of undead sounds scary, it actually doesn't feel so depressing after entering here. If you really want to say something scary, Aisinger is much more terrifying than here. The traffic of people or ghosts here is very large. However, although there are all kinds of messy appearances, if you exclude these external things, these undead are actually not much different from those shopping.

Because we were used to it at Aisinger, we quickly adapted to the environment when we got here. You should know that Aisinger was also a place where the dead were running all over the streets. Although we did not scare some children, we made some adjustments to the undead in the city. Those who looked disgusting or terrifying were concentrated in special areas, and those who could generally sway on the streets were the kind of undead that looked more normal.

Of course, as guild leaders, we will not feel any fear of this place because there are so many undead here, so we almost adapted to the environment here as soon as we came in.

"It seems we need to find out where the bank is here first." Christina said, looking at the large group of undeads on both sides.

"I think that should be the bank, right?" Zhenhong suddenly pointed to a building in front and said. To be honest, the sign outside the building is really very simple and easy to understand, because it is painted on it, two skeleton claws are making the move to give money, so you can tell at a glance that this is 80% of it is a bank.

The facts proved that Zhenhong's guess was correct. After entering the bank, we quickly completed the fund exchange work with the help of a very "enthusiastic" undead, and the undead also became our guide for the sake of the two purple magic crystal coins we paid.

Just as we were adapting to the urban environment, the situation on Matsumoto Masaki and others changed slightly.

The Gun God died soon because he was outnumbered, but before this guy died, he broke out in a small peak and used his large skill to instantly kill the three players and some equipment of the affiliated guild of our guild. Fortunately, the ratio is not very large.

After the Gun God died, Nobunaga Ghostou targeted the personnel of the affiliated guilds of our guild, but the other party was all professionals and the reaction was so fast. As soon as the Gun God was killed, these people immediately gathered together to form a defense circle.

When Ghost Nobunaga saw the other party's appearance, he knew that he had been discovered by the other party. The other party's reaction was clearly to prevent the elves from being in the back. However, Ghost Nobunaga obviously made a mistake in the real reason for forming this formation. I thought Ghost Nobunaga, who had surrounded the other party, became energetic again at this time, because he learned his lesson and called a lot of reinforcements while the Gun God was still fighting with those people. So now Ghost Nobunaga's numerical advantage is quite exaggerated. If the other party resists, they will definitely be killed soon.

Under such conditions, Nobunaga Ghostou was naturally very proud. Therefore, after the computer room staff surrounded those people, Nobunaga Ghostou did not immediately order the attack, but deliberately walked out of the hiding place with a shelves. At first, he did not look at those people, but instead showed off his plan to congratulate Masamoto and others and showed off: "How is it? I have arranged a good staff, right?"

Matsumoto Masaki was actually quite disdainful because he knew the real reason why the people on the other side gathered together. In fact, when Nobunaga Ghostou ordered his own people to go up and surround these people, Masaki and the others also happened to receive a request for assistance from those people through the God of War.

They gathered in this way because someone in the team was preparing a collective teleportation array, which took a little time. What they needed now was to let Masaga Matsumoto hold back Ghostou Nobunaga first and not start the war immediately.

The reason why these people came here before was to help Matsumoto Masaga and his team destroy the purpose of Ghost Nobunaga and others to strengthen the Japanese advanced players, but now this mission has been completed unexpectedly by the Gun God, so it would be meaningless for them to stay here, so these people immediately decided to leave here.

Matsumoto Masaga knew that he was leaving, so he naturally looked down on the so-called encirclement of Ghost Nobunaga now. However, since the other party needed time, Masaga Masaga had to force himself to pretend to be very admired and said a few clichés.

Regardless of whether Ghosto Nobunaga could hear Matsumoto Masaki's clichés or not, Ghosto Nobunaga seemed to be quite useful anyway. However, his good mood was quickly broken, because just as Matsumoto Masaki finished talking about the cliché, a blue and white light spot suddenly lit up in the center of the group of people in the field. In the blink of an eye, the spot expanded into a huge light ball to wrap all the attackers in it. Then the light ball shrank into a light spot, and then it flashed completely disappeared. When the light ball completely disappeared, Nobunaga and the others discovered that the attackers who he hoped to catch were also disappeared with the light ball. But now let alone the attackers. Even the leaves and weeds on the ground where they were just standing were gone. Only the bare ground was left.

"It seems that some people's calculations have failed!" Chihuo Longji said deliberately sarcastically as she looked at the location of the group of people who were disappearing.

"What did you say?" The Ghost Nobunaga, who was full of fire, immediately burst out when he heard Chihuo Longji's words. He turned around and pointed directly at Chihuo Longji and asked loudly: "You try saying it again."

"It's the fact. If you didn't rush to show off your arrangements just now and ordered the arrest directly, they would definitely not be able to complete the collective teleportation after their team was broken. Even if you could run away a few, you wouldn't have gained nothing like you are now, right?"

"What do you know?" Nobunaga Ghostou argued: "I was torture the enemy mentally. I used this calm attitude to stimulate the other party to put pressure on them. As long as the other party loses its calmness, our subsequent capture or encirclement will become much easier. But how do I know that they have such magic that can instantly transmit a large group of people?"

"Okay. I've been quarreled." Matsumoto Masaga stood up to smooth things over at this time and said, "Let's say less. People have already run away, so it's no point for us to stay here anymore. Everyone will go back and do their own things." After Masaga Masaga said that, he said to Nobunaga Ghostou, "Nobunaga Ghostou, although your mission has failed this time, I don't think it's entirely a loss."

Nobunaga Ghostou looked at Masaga Matsumoto in surprise and asked, "What do you mean?"

Masaga Matsumoto explained: "At least we know that foreign forces like Gun God are unreliable. We..."

Before Masaga Matsumoto continued to speak, Nobunaga Kiso interrupted him first. "Don't think I don't know what you think." Nobunaga Kiso said coldly: "Although I am not as smart as you, I am not stupid. Didn't you mean to let me stop working with the Russians? Humph, if I cut off contact with the Russians and don't get their support, my strength will plummet. You can ravage me at will, right? Do you really think I am an idiot? The Gun God is the Gun God, and my Russian partners are another matter. Don't think that we have dealt with the common enemies together and think that I will completely believe you. Tell you, this is a dream."

After saying this, Nobunaga Nobunaga did not wait for Matsumoto Masaki and the others to explain, and waved his hand and shouted "Go", and then left the scene with his own people.

Matsumoto Masaga and Azuki Suzuki stood there stupidly, until the four of them were exposed before they gathered together again. Azuki Suzuki looked at Masaga Masaga with a strange expression and said, "When did Nobunaga suddenly become smart?"

Masaga Matsumoto smiled and said, "It's not that he has become smarter, but that this kid has become bad."

"Why?" August Xun obviously didn't understand where the joint was.

Masaga Matsumoto explained: "This time, Nobunaga Nobunaga obviously made a mistake. Not only did the mission of the senior Japanese player in the new Japanese player fail, but he was also snatched by the Gun God. In the end, he wanted to show off and missed the best opportunity to deal with the attackers. At this time, we educate Nobunaga in a preaching tone, which is actually a blow to his prestige, because a leader who needs others to preach is obviously not so easy to reassure others."

Sakura Yu Kamihito suddenly nodded and said, "I understand. Nobunaga Ghostou was afraid that our preaching would make all the mistakes clear, and he also lost his prestige because of being preached. He planned to use this method to bring this matter lightly, which was to raise it high and let it go gently."

Chihuo Longji nodded and said, "I understand too. Nobunaga Ghost Shou hasn't become smarter. He is just angry and embarrassed. However, I have to say that he was a mistake this time."

In fact, these analysis are very correct. Nobunaga Hitoo is not a smart person himself. This time the failure is so serious that someone will always take the blame. Nobunaga Hitoo doesn't want to bear it himself, at least he can't bear it all by himself. So although Nobunaga Hitoo just now sent a fire to Masao Masao and the others, it was said to his own people. The purpose is nothing more than to downplay the specific reason for the failure of this mission, and it means to divert attention.

After the separation of Nobunaga Ghostou and Masaki Matsumoto and others, there was nothing important. Nobunaga Ghostou and others would not be able to continue in a short period of time. After all, that kind of high-reward mission is not a cabbage, and it is not something you can do just by wanting to do. You need to wait for the opportunity.

Japan is quiet, but we can't get quiet during the mission, and the reason is in the building we found after we left the bank.

There is a very tall building behind the bank. This building is considered a large-scale building in the whole city. So we think it is a very important building. In fact, when we walked around the street behind and entered the building, we found that it was actually a large shopping mall.

Of course, the undead's shopping malls will definitely not sell ready-made clothes and cosmetics. In fact, there are really cosmetics here, but these cosmetics are very weird. As for why the undead's cosmetics... of course, it's not for beauty, but for infiltrating into human society.

In fact, these so-called cosmetics are all things that can disguise the undead as humans. Although some look inferior, some are really pretty good. It would be better to say the prop called Magic Skin that Christina and the Gold Coins just bought just now.

To be honest, this thing seems to me is the painted skin in "Strange Stories from a Chinese Studio". As long as you put this thing on your body, you can use a special spell to deform this thing. Not only can you transform into various human shapes, but you can also disguise some equipment. Of course, this thing has flaws. First, it is that it cannot maintain its transformation for a long time, and second, because this is magical equipment, magic fluctuations will always exist. There is nothing to do with people who are not very alert. If those alert people, they will definitely be exposed at the first time. So this thing actually does not have much practical value.

Women are probably born to be irresistible in shopping. Once they enter this mall, even roses are a little out of control. They travel back and forth between layers of goods, and they look at this mall by comparison. Unfortunately, they do not only have such a large storage space to move here, but also have so much money to buy these things.

The currencies in this city of Undead are just another form of magic crystal stone. With such a large amount of magic crystal stone mining, our guild's senior management naturally has a lot of magic crystal stones in their hands, so it is certainly no problem for us to exchange them for them. In addition, in fact, during the previous exchange process, we also confirmed something by the way, that is, magic crystal stone is indeed the high-energy crystal here, which has been confirmed by the bank. In other words, the task we received before was actually to clean up a magic crystal mineral area. As for why it was brought here... we will probably know after we have finished investigating it here.

Originally, I didn't care much about the things in this place when I was just shopping on the lower floors. It was just that the women had a special liking for buying things, so after seeing some weird gadgets, I couldn't help but want to buy them. However, after we finished shopping on the lower floors and entered the fourth floor, we suddenly realized that this place was not just a place for selling some useless gadgets. Even Rose and the others' expressions returned to their seriousness. Obviously, they also discovered the things I paid attention to.
Chapter completed!
