Chapter 148 Elf Cemetery

The city lord led a team to dig her family's ancestral graves. This feeling was more exciting than making rice dumplings in Corpse Mountain Park.

Of course, although the words are correct, in fact, this so-called city lord's cemetery is the source of power for the entire Silent City.

A very few people who know the inside story call it the Elf Cemetery.

"What does an elf look like? Is it a small thing that can fly?" Many people had never seen it before and asked.

Madam Bai shook her head in a funny way and replied: "Don't think of things so beautifully. To a certain extent, elves can also become wild beasts."

Desolate beasts are the general name given by humans to the monsters that burst out of the ground in the catastrophic era.

This elven cemetery also came here with the catastrophe. In a sense, they are all classified as wild beasts.

However, these wild beasts are very peaceful and even have less desire to attack than humans, so they are called elves.

After the elves grow old, they like to find a quiet place to stay and quietly wait for death. For this reason, this place is called the Silent City, which also represents the meaning of eternal sleep.

They repel polluting industries, and the power they release will destroy all electronic devices.

But the good news is that the elemental power here is very powerful, which is why Silent City advocates nature.

"If you tell us this, aren't you afraid that we might have malicious intentions and take away your elves?"

As soon as these words were spoken, the entire audience fell silent and turned their attention to Xu Jiang, who was speaking.

It's one thing to think in your heart, but it's another thing to say it out loud. By asking this question bluntly, aren't you trying to cause trouble for others?

Mrs. Bai didn't mind. She had thought about this problem, so she kept suppressing it and did not ask for help.

After struggling for more than a month, she finally understood one thing.

"Don't worry about outsiders being concerned, because even our own people can't get in."

…

As the foundation of the Silent City, the entire City Lord's Mansion was built on the Elf Cemetery.

Judging from the environment, it can be considered elegant and pleasant. A light door wrapped with emerald green vines is constantly emitting blue light, and is surrounded by heavy soldiers guarding it.

For those who don’t know, they think this is a spiritual realm and want to go in and explore.

But it's not, it's some kind of small secret realm where the spaces are folded together.

There won't be any spiritual rewards inside, it's just a cemetery for a group of elves.

Without stopping too much, everyone passed through the blue light door one after another. The world inside was a different world.

The solemn white stone corridor is flanked by inexhaustible cold flames. Looking ahead, you can't see the end of the corridor.

Obviously, going down this path will not lead to very good results.

"This is the Elf Cemetery? It doesn't look any different, right?" Ying Xiaoxiao observed for a while, then started to poke the stone wall on the side with a spear, as if she wanted to return to her old profession, breaking through the wall to find a way out.

Mrs. Bai quickly stopped her.

"Don't be impulsive. Violence will not solve the problem here, but will cause trouble."

There is no shortage of experts in Silent City. They have already tried this method of forced demolition.

But the result was: the road was not found, and the group suffered a powerful attack. After being chased for several days and exhausted, they could only quit with hatred.

After entering here, Mrs. Bai finally opened her mouth and stated the goal of her trip.

"My father is not actually dead. He just followed his contracted elf companions and came here to wait for death. Only by finding him can I possibly recover."

These words shocked everyone.

Unexpectedly, the former city lord was still not dead, but came to the cemetery in advance to wait for death. No wonder he just said that he would dig her father out of the grave. This was true.

The trouble now is that the Elf Cemetery has its own defense system, and it is not easy to see the father deep in the cemetery.

"Then City Lord Bai, how did you get in before?" someone asked.

Madam Bai raised her hand, and a shallow white light lit up in her palm, then extinguished instantly, and she shook her head helplessly.

"This place can only be entered by the city lords of the past generations, but now that my power has been sealed, this space no longer recognizes me."

Dare to speak out so frankly, Mrs. Bai doesn't worry about any thieves. After all, she can't even get in, so she has to spend a lot of money to hire Pace for help.

"Do you want me to help you unlock the runes on the wall?"

Pace was still very serious when he was working. Of course, perhaps in order to get off work early, he took the initiative to stand in front of the wall and check the runes.

Most people cannot learn these things.

Because runes can be regarded as both words and spells, they can be activated with special energy to form a powerful energy circuit with miraculous effects.

Including the female demon, they can only understand text but cannot operate. This is a special power unique to the Divine Lamp Clan.

"It's strange, why do you have my clan's writing in this cemetery?"

"I also want to ask this question."

Although Mrs. Bai looks very dignified on the surface, she is also very irritable in her heart. This is his house! The fingerprint on the door does not recognize her. It would be embarrassing for anyone to hire a locksmith.

Pace didn't hesitate and carefully checked the runes for a while, and soon got the result.

"This level of protection should be one of the several high-end products our clan sells. I can unlock it, but it seems to trigger some mechanisms. You should be prepared."

After hearing this, Mrs. Bai was overjoyed: "No problem, as long as we can find a way out, Shang Wen, you will be responsible for arranging the battle."

Shang Wen, a woman who is less than 30 years old, has a long whip on her shoulder, holds a very retro spear, and wears bright silver armor. She looks majestic.

She is the captain of the Guards and Madam Bai's most trusted bodyguard. It is perfect for her to serve as the battle commander.

"The first team is responsible for protecting the city lord and Mr. Pace, the second team follows me and is responsible for breaking out, and the third and fourth teams are on both wings to help defend."

It can be felt that this commander is quite experienced. Before entering, he divided the team into 4 teams to facilitate scheduling.

He left the most trusted dead soldiers to Madam Bai, while he and the mercenaries killed the enemies on the periphery.

But the problem is...

"We haven't been assigned to join the team yet! Where are we?" Ying Xiaoxiao carried the spear with a look of confusion on her face.

"You? Just be responsible for protecting Xu Jiang. Don't let him die." Shang Wen's tone did not conceal his disgust. Are you looking down on him so much?

"Hey, brother, don't mind it. The entire Silent City actually looks down on people in the mechanical department."

A strong man with a big beard happened to walk beside him and started chatting with Xu Jiang in a familiar manner.

"What do you call uncle?"

"Oh, just call me Lao Zeng. I'm a mercenary. I've heard your name a lot in the past two days. The entire Silent City army is in chaos, and you're a part of it."

This person was muttering in a low voice and looked like he was watching a good show. He must also be a gossip.

Looking at the prepared posture in front of me, I realized that it would really save me some effort if I didn't need his help, so I just chatted with this old Zeng.

"Are you saying that people here look down on the mechanical department?"

"Isn't this obvious? I saw several streaks of red mist sweeping past you."

"What! There was something wrong with the red mist just now?"

"Of course, don't you feel it? Your current mecha skills should be completely useless."

After hearing this explanation, Xu Jiang understood that the power that was said to be able to cripple machinery in Silent City refers to the strange red mist.

Its effect is more powerful than electromagnetic pulse. It can not only paralyze mechas, but also seal the skills of mechanics.

In the Silent City, red mist only appeared from time to time, but in the Elf Cemetery, there was so much red mist that there was no place to hide.

He was wearing a mecha, and he was continuously scanned without hesitation. Wasn't this just paralyzed into scrap metal?

His level is low, he has a grudge against Silent City, his mecha is now useless, and his skills have been completely sealed, so no wonder he is looked down upon by others.

Xu Jiang hurriedly muttered anxiously: 'Everyone, are you all okay?'

"Huh? General, what does this question refer to? If it refers to training, it is true that the intensity of training has been slack recently."

'It's not training, I'm talking about the red mist just now, did it have any impact on you?'

"Red mist? You have to ask Twinkle about that."

'Twinkle? Twinkle what's wrong with you?'

"Hey? I'm fine! I just took a few mouthfuls of red mist."

‘Eat, how many bites did you take?’

"Yes! It's sweet, it's quite delicious."

Well, it seems that the worry is in vain, the machinery at home is not normal, these red mist and black mist have no effect on him at all.

Do you want to speak out?

Forget it, just follow behind and you can get a round of rewards for free, so why bother?

Look, my team leader thought the same way. He carried a long gun behind his back, and Xiaozhen and I each had a bag of potato chips and ate them. It was really satisfying.

"Careful! The road appears and those flames are activated."
