secluded city.
Outside the Yangchong Gate wall, a man clad in mechanical armor slowly emerged from the flames. Around him lay scattered corpses and debris, mostly those who had died in the explosion.
Inside were soldiers guarding the city gate and ordinary people passing by. Now they were all charred and even their human figures could not be distinguished.
A large hole was blown open in the wall of Yangchong Gate, with debris flying everywhere and flames shooting into the sky.
"Hey man, isn't it too conspicuous for you to do this?"
A non-mainstream young man wearing a colorful jacket, with colorful permed hair and nails on his ears, lips and nose came up from behind the armored man. He took a look at the chaotic scene around him and couldn't help but whisper.
The two men's dressing styles are completely inconsistent with the surrounding architectural styles. One is a sci-fi metal warrior, and the other is a death heavy metal style Shamatte aristocrat.
"This is the only way to attract others the fastest. Besides, these natives are seeking their own death and want to capture us. There is no need to show mercy."
As a descender, Longyan has never been stingy with killing the natives of other worlds.
Because only in this way can he survive better in this dangerous mission.
"But such widespread destruction will also attract the enemy..." The man in the jacket shrugged helplessly. "The situation here is too complicated. I've never seen ruins like this, with humans actually living inside. Not only that, they seem to have their own cities and culture."
He had been to two or three ruins, but he had never heard of a ruin like the Bloody Ruins, where there was a city of living people.
"What's all the fuss? The Bloody Ruins are high-level ruins. Relying on the immense power of space, they've formed a small to medium-sized extra-dimensional space. Naturally, living people and cities can exist there," Long Yan said casually. He then glanced at the sun in the sky, a hint of confusion in his eyes. "But the light source is a bit problematic... If I had the scientific research equipment, I'd take some samples back to analyze the structure."
"Stop...Who are you?!"
Just as the two were talking, a group of cavalry rushed out of the city. The young cavalryman in the lead raised his spear and pointed it at Long Yan and the man in the jacket.
He looked at the huge gap in the city wall and couldn't help but feel a tingling sensation on his scalp, but the military qualities he had developed over the years allowed him to remain calm in the face of unknown fear.
"Another one..."
Long Yan turned his head, and the cannon in his hand began to charge, lighting up with a crimson ball of light.
Boom——
Seeing another flash of fire shooting up into the sky in the distance, followed by a deafening explosion, which came from a long distance away, the expressions of Sparrow and the others changed slightly.
This was the second explosion, which meant that the person who caused the explosion had already taken action twice.
The woman in the white dress frowned and asked in a low voice, "Do you want to go over and take a look? This kind of power should only be created by us Adventers or Force users."
Although she really disliked the young lady next to her, she had not yet broken up with her. Since they had the same goal, she had no choice but to reluctantly ask for her opinion.
"I'm fine with it."
Sparrow ate a piece of cake and said nonchalantly.
She then paused for a few seconds and slowly said, "But let me make this clear, if I can't win, I'll just leave."
Any strong person will not fight to the death foolishly unless he is forced to do so. This is the most foolish behavior.
"If we really encounter an opponent we can't match, we can just scatter and flee."
The woman in the white dress didn't say anything, and her teammates nodded without much opinion.
The palace of the Lord of Youcheng City.
The city lord Xiao Jiulin is hosting a banquet to entertain the Black Snake Immortal from the Immortal Gate. This is a routine every three years, and the Immortal Immortal who comes down from the mountain from the Immortal Gate will inspect various cities.
During this period, each city lord will do their best to entertain them in order to gain the support of the Luxian Sect and maintain the power of the city.
This world has seven major cities, and the one that reigns supreme over them is not a nation, but the Luxian Sect, situated in the center. Peace has long reigned here, with no wars. The Luxian Sect is a single entity, possessing no rivals, and thus maintaining a firm grip on everyone and everything in the seven cities.
Xiao Jiulin has a fair complexion and has lived a life of luxury for many years. In addition, he has a secret to maintaining his youthful appearance. Although he is forty-five years old, he looks no more than thirty years old.
"Master, I hope you will say many kind words about this year's test. This cup is my toast to you."
City Lord Xiao sat in the main seat, holding a three-legged wine cup, drank the wine in one gulp, and smiled at the black-robed Taoist priest next to him.
"Very good, very good. City Lord Xiao has been in office for many years, and his contributions to the Immortal Sect are obvious to all. This assessment will not be a problem at all."
The Black Snake Taoist laughed and also drank the wine in the glass.
Although he is a Taoist, he is not as old as Xiao Jiulin. However, because of the practice of martial arts, he looks a little old and dry, like a Taoist in his fifties or sixties.
There were performances by dancers and musicians on the stage, with graceful singing and dancing and pleasant music.
Next to them was a circle of guests of the city lord, all of whom were famous people in Youcheng. They watched the performance while clinking glasses and chatting happily. It was very lively.
Boom——
Just as the city lord and the Taoist were whispering, a series of explosions were heard outside, like thunder exploding on the ground, and faint cries and shouts changed the expressions of everyone present.
"What's going on...what's happening outside?"
