The bottom of the elevator shaft is not a sealed space with regular shapes-in fact, as the height of the shaft decreases, the surrounding shaft walls gradually show a tendency to expand to the surroundings, and the boulders, steel, and pipes that make up the shaft walls gradually merge into In the building complex of Xiacheng District, this is a transitional structure that has evolved gradually over thousands of years. The feeling for Hao Ren is that as the height drops, it comes to a block unconsciously.
Xiacheng District.
The deepest part of the twilight capital is the foundation of the doomsday refuge. The first impression given to Hao Ren here is dimness, followed by obsolete clutter.
There are still many styles of two thousand years ago. Huge stone buildings and rune-inlaid cast iron columns can be seen everywhere. Two thousand years ago, humans did not have the ability to build such a magnificent megalithic city. So Midgard ’s Several primitive city-states were built with the help of the Nordic gods (which will be seen in various miracles and legends in later generations). It is for these reasons that these ancient buildings can bear the important task of the twilight capital.
The vicissitudes of ancient buildings are lined up next to each other, and the Xiacheng District is like a huge and complicated maze. There is no rule. Here you can cast your eyes in any direction, and you can see only Layered buildings and platform structures of different ages. The whole city is so heavily pressed on your head that the biggest feeling you have when walking in these buildings is depression-followed by the fear of a sudden collapse of the whole city.
Hao Ren glanced up, and he saw that the twilight capital was like a bloated nest, with criss-cross urban structures entangled above his head, extending all the way to the endless darkness, between the urban structures. There are no rules of light, but these lights can not dispel even the slightest sense of darkness and depression. He widened his eyes and tried to distinguish, before finally seeing a line of white at the end of the dark abyss. He guessed that it might be a little "skylight" passed down from the upper city, but soon he found that he was wrong: it was just a cloud of mist Because the city is stacked so high that it has thick clouds between the buildings.
If you are born and raised in the twilight capital, you will know that it is the area of the condenser tube of the big boiler, and another "ethnic" who has degraded in the harsh environment lives there. They are called "Barney." "Er", the platform they live in has been raining for many years, and the rainwater falling from the cloud layer of the condenser contains a slightly toxic substance, so that the skin of the residents on the platform will emit a slight fluorescence.
"This place is more broken than expected ..." Looking at the situation in front of him, Vivian couldn't help whispering.
"This is the urban area two thousand years ago," Wendell shook his head. "The further down, the older and older, but the power of the ancient holy blessing, these things are still solid and durable, at least for now. So far ... the city will not collapse due to heavy pressure. "
Hao Ren carefully observed the surroundings. He originally thought that he would also encounter a certain degree of urban defense forces here, but found that there was only a quiet surrounding: the battle that took place on the upper platform seemed to be another thing for this place. One world thing. He felt it was a bit abnormal.
No matter how ruined and outdated Xiacheng District is, it is also the residence of the ancient sages. Even if Lily is noisy, they will not be attracted to all the city guards-at least some should be left here The soldier is right.
Wendel obviously felt something wrong. He watched the black stone houses around him cautiously: "There should be a twilight squad stationed all year round. They will not leave the post anyway."
Deep in the dark and messy city streets, a few figures shook a few times, Hao Ren saw that they were a few ragged civilians, they hurriedly rushed by, and two of them looked here A glance, but the numb expression did not change at all, and they quickly left.
Goose bumps are "peaceful" in the entire Xiacheng district.
In order to understand what happened, Hao Ren and Vivian, under the leadership of Wendell, carefully moved towards the Twilight Guard ’s outpost here. The station is an independent square building 100 meters away from the lift. Slightly higher, unobstructed around. Normally, there will always be two soldiers standing guard in front of this building, and the searchlights at the top of the building will also stay on and continue to fire around the entrance and exit of the elevator-but now this outpost is completely shrouded in silence, no soldiers are walking, even searchlight Are extinguished.
"There are signs of life in it," Vivian sniffed his nose, "The smell of blood circulation, people are alive, but it seems to be controlled."
The situation became more and more weird. Hao Ren increased his vigilance and walked ahead, but nothing happened until he reached the gate of the outpost. Vivian followed behind him, surrounded by a **** black cloud, and the bats were hidden in the cloud and ready to attack.
"Bang-"
Hao Ren kicked open the gate of the outpost and took a spear to flash in: "No movement!"
Several chairs were placed in the outpost. Six soldiers in the uniform of the Twilight Guard sat rigidly on the chairs. They tried to roll their eyes and looked at the light in the hands of Hao Ren with terrified and pleading eyes Plasma spear, but there was no one finger in the body: they seemed to be controlled by a spell.
A mysterious man in a linen robe is standing across the table. This is a young woman with pale skin and a thin figure. She wears a unique headdress on her head, which looks like a thorn. Weaving in general. The woman bowed slightly to Hao Ren: "Hello, strange traveler-can I move?"
Hao Ren froze: "Who are you?"
"I am the servant of the ancient saint," the young woman's voice was soft, and she could not see the strong man who could control the six soldiers with one hand. She smiled and looked at Wendel, "the old gentleman may know Us. "
"Are you a caregiver?" Wendell exclaimed, "How come the caregiver left the sanctuary?"
"There is only one reason to change the vow of the caregiver, that is the order of the ancient holy," the young woman called the "caregiver" continued to whisper, "In the world above, you should be the only one who can hear Holy voice person-so you probably guess why I am here. "
Windington thought of the great voice that suddenly came into his mind when he was in the upper city.
"Are you here to pick us up?" Wendell looked excited on his face. "How is the ancient saint?"
"A lot of things are inconvenient to discuss in detail here," the young woman turned slightly toward the door, "Please follow me, strange travelers."
The mysterious young woman took the crowd out of the square, and quickly turned into a secret path, following her through the complex and forced buildings, Hao Ren curiously asked Wendell: "This is what Who is it? "
He saw that Wendell recognized the identity of the other party, and he judged that this woman should be a reliable guide to the light seeker, but he still didn't understand the organizational structure of the twilight capital.
Wendle glanced at the woman leading the way and nodded slightly: "This is a member of the caregiver. They are the people responsible for caring for the ancient saint. Only the whole twilight can contact the ancient saint regularly, we If you want to meet the ancient saints, you must pass these people-but I did not expect that the caregiver would come to pick us up. They never leave the throne hall. "
Vivian came to the woman: "What is your name?"
"Angelica." The young woman said her name.
"Is Angelica ... you seem to have a little Warner blood," Vivian looked at each other curiously, "It looks like ... Your ancient holy condition is not very good?"
"... you will know where you are," Angelica lowered her eyes and did not answer the question positively. "I don't know your origins, and I don't know why you want to see Gu Sheng, I just obey Act. "
Hao Ren still has a question to understand: "Well, since Gu Sheng wants to see us, why do the city guards have to block it? You ordered earlier how good the guards above let go-we are still divided A group of people are having trouble with them over there. "
Angelica ’s footsteps paused a little: “Seeing the situation at the outpost just now, do you think we can command the Twilight Guard?”
Hao Ren woke up suddenly.
"Once many people could hear the voice of the ancient saint, but now, even a few of the caregivers still have this kind of talent, and since five hundred years ago, the ancient saint has barely said anything. In a word, "Angelica's voice was very soft, and she could barely hear any emotions." In this case, the Iron Throne has become a symbol-supreme, but unable to issue orders. .)
