"Su...Luo? Su Luo!"
Someone was calling her in her ear, but she couldn't hear clearly. In a daze, Su Luo saw a strange creature wearing a moon-white robe with stars approaching her, gradually merging with the figure in front of her.
Yang Zijin?
Seeing that Su Luo had come to her senses, Yang Zijing finally relaxed. She straightened up arrogantly, as if her previous concern was all an illusion. Feigning composure, she turned to the side and said, "You just fell asleep on the sofa. You'll catch a cold if you sleep on the sofa!"
That being said, Su Luo keenly noticed that Yang Zijin had a few streaks of white hair at her temples. There weren't many, but they stood out quite a bit against her black hair.
What happened? I remember Yang Zijin didn't have any gray hair before. He should only be seventeen or eighteen years old, in the prime of his life, full of vigor and vitality. How could he have gray hair?
Noticing Su Luo's gaze, Yang Zijing seemed to realize something, raised her hand to cover the hair at her temples, turned her back, and made an excuse to leave Su Luo's side.
Is this person hiding something from her?
Su Luo narrowed her eyes and frowned, but since the other party didn't want to talk, she was too lazy to ask. After all, she wasn't a member of the Abyss, and Xinghuo could do whatever it wanted. As long as it didn't involve her, Su Luo maintained an indifferent, spectator attitude.
Just as she got up to go back to her room to sleep, her gaze inadvertently swept over the vase on the table. Inside were the Yuanbao flowers, which were a specialty of Bailing City and had been delivered that morning. The flowers were shaped like ingots, but were scarlet in color, which looked a bit eerie.
The original Yuanbao flower could bloom for a month, and if enhanced by strange energy or a domain, it could even bloom forever. But now, the Yuanbao flower in the vase in front of him had gone from being vibrant and beautiful to withering and rotting in an instant, as if a long time had passed.
time?
time!
Recalling the white hair at Yang Zijin's temples just now, Su Luo made up her mind.
Could it be that she just... unintentionally released the [Time] domain?
This is serious.
This was the first time she had ever experienced a loss of control over her domain, and this state occurred after she traveled back in time and encountered that strange being above the Nine Stars.
Did he inadvertently break some kind of restriction on himself?
...
In the following days, after learning that the Nine Stars was not the pinnacle, Su Luo did not rush to the Holy Domain or the Divine Capital. Instead, he settled down and began to develop deeply in the main city of Bailing. He began to expand outward from the Golden Cave as the center, and vaguely showed the signs of establishing the Su Clan!
Moreover, after hearing that Doctor Su was recruiting low-star monsters, many monsters of three stars and below came to apply. Among them, if Su Luo encountered a star-level monster with decent character, she would include it in the scope of key investigation. In the end, all the monsters that passed the test were sent to Luo Wang City in the apocalypse by her.
After all, Luo Wang City has Ye Qinglan, a free laborer, as well as Brother Brain, and now there's Painted Skin, who has risen to the eighth star. How much trouble can they cause?
Since the day he received a free upgrade to the Painted Skin ability, Su Luo discovered that the level of the monster in the Painted Skin section of his contract had jumped to eight stars, which surprised him a little.
Upgrade yourself and share with the whole family—is that reasonable? Absolutely!
I wonder if the ancient saying "when one attains enlightenment, even his chickens and dogs ascend to heaven" is true.
That's why Su Luo dared to send these strange creatures back to Luo Wang City. Of course, she asked Zhao Jin for help with all of this, since he knew much more about the transmission between the Abyss and the modern apocalypse than she, Su Luo, did.
Moreover, the occasional disappearance of one or two of these strange creatures goes unnoticed. Not to mention, in this Bailing main city alone, countless strange creatures die in accidents every day. Who would care about the life or death of some low-level ants?
'Ding! Detected an increase in the number of residents in the host's Ghost City; 20 one-star ghosts, 46 two-star ghosts, 8 three-star ghosts, and 2 four-star ghosts. Reward points: 240,000. Title: Fourth-Tier Ghost City. Activate the Fourth-Tier Ghost City title?'
"Ding! Congratulations, host, for activating the 'Four-Tier Mysterious City' title. You have received the following rewards: one set of the 'Golden Cave Supreme Wealth' style, one set of the 'Paper-Clad Luxury' style, one set of the 'Extravagant Abstract Design' style, and one set of the 'Golden Splendor, Abundant Gold' style. All styles can be freely combined by the host."
'Special reward: Luo Wang City can defend against one Seven Star Upper Domain attack and has the ability to reflect one attack (Note: If encountering a domain that can evade reflection skills, the reflection will be nullified).'
An attack on the Seven Stars? Given that, apart from the Painted Skin, no other six-star or higher monsters can enter the apocalypse, wouldn't her defense of Luo Wang City be invincible?
However, this note caught Su Luo's attention.
Avoid areas where you can use rebound skills?!
There's such a thing?
This is really a great item! I wonder if anyone has this kind of knowledge. It would be great if I could copy it using my own [Forbidden Eye]!
I wonder how much of Nangong Liuli's [Red Eyes] can be used in the [Abyss]. With this ability, wouldn't it be a piece of cake for her to detect strange creatures around her?
Unfortunately, there are no free rewards for upgrading residents' skills. To improve Nangong Liuli's abilities, she can only use points from the shop to purchase items. However, even if she manages to purchase the items, she still needs to give Nangong Liuli a potion, which is simply not feasible for Su Luo, who is currently in the Abyss...
'Ding, host's intention detected. Suggestion: Host, please check the rewards for upgrading the Mysterious City!'
Suddenly, the system voice popped up. Su Luo narrowed his eyes upon hearing it, then thoughtfully clicked on a red dot in the lower right corner. Inside was a drop-down menu listing the various names of the Ghost King City, which was his own Luo King City after its upgrade.
The current Luowang City is a fourth-tier mysterious city, with its title highlighted and its rewards clearly displayed.
The next title was "Third-Tier Ghost City," and the rewards section was almost entirely marked with asterisks. Except for the last few special rewards, there was a sentence clearly written under the words that immediately excited Su Luo.
Title: The Third-Tier Ghost City.
The reward is currently not activated and is hidden by all asterisks.
Special Reward: As a system gift, you can choose one free skill upgrade for a resident of the city. The skill can be upgraded to the Domain Realm, and the extent of the upgrade depends on the potential of the user and the strength of the skill.
Title: Second-tier Ghost City.
The reward is currently not activated and is hidden by all asterisks.
Special Reward: As a system gift, you have the opportunity to upgrade the skills of a certified resident of the Non-Human City or the Ghost City for free. The skill can be upgraded to the Domain Realm, and the extent of the upgrade depends on the potential of the user and the strength of the skill.
Title: First-Line Ghost City.
The reward is currently not activated and is hidden by all asterisks.
Special Reward: Capable of withstanding one full burst of power from a Nine-Star Upper Domain, and able to counterattack that attack (Note: Possesses an evasion and reflection domain of the same level, which can nullify it). The system also grants a free upgrade to the host's innate skill once, raising it to the Domain level. The extent of the upgrade depends on the host's potential and the skill's strength!
In response, Su Luo used only five words to express his thoughts at that moment.
The system has gone berserk!
