Chapter 224 009: Journey in the Ruins
Ruins of the ancient city, Blue Water Bay.
At the same time, Luo Xi started his journey in the ruined ancient city.
"Da! Da! Da!" The sound of crisp footsteps rang out.
Luo Xi was walking on an ancient street. The road was paved with a thick layer of bluestone slabs. Even after thousands of years, the patterns on the slabs could still show the exquisite workmanship of the past.
Unfortunately, the stone slabs were broken, and clusters of weeds grew out of the cracks in the stone slabs, almost submerging the entire street.
"What a long street! How can there be such a long street? How big must this city be?"
Lina flew into the air and looked into the distance for a long time, but she still couldn't see the end of the road. The length of the street was obviously longer than the towns she had known before.
Luo Xi said: "Of course, this is Sigrama after all. The scale of the towns here cannot be judged by ordinary towns. Even the smallest administrative town area exceeds the scope of a medium-sized human country."
Lina opened her mouth in surprise: "A town is bigger than a country? Did I hear it right?"
Luo Xi turned his head and looked at the ruins around him: "When I read the book before, I also thought that the book used exaggerated descriptions, but now that I am really here, I think the content recorded in the book is still too conservative."
There is no end in sight for such an endless group of ruins. I'm afraid that no ordinary human kingdom can reach this scale. At least as far as Luo Xi knows, there is no human kingdom that cannot cross the land of this kingdom after flying for several months.
"Huh? What is that?" At this moment, Lina seemed to have discovered something. She pointed in a direction and saw that it was under a broken wall in the distance. There was a faint blue light flashing, as if there was something behind it.
Luo Xi became more alert. This was an ancient ruined city. The elemental energy here was almost at the scale of a fourth or fifth level witch domain. The creatures bred under this level of elemental energy all had very high strength.
Lina said, "I'll go take a look."
Gathering intelligence and investigating situations are the most suitable jobs for ghosts. After all, they can ignore all kinds of terrain and do not have to worry about the harm caused by triggering traps.
Luo Xi nodded and warned: "Be careful."
Although ordinary physical damage has no effect on ghosts, if she encounters something that can hurt her soul, it will still cause damage to her.
"I know."
Lina agreed and flew over there quickly.
"ah!"
However, not long after, Lina's scream was heard in the distance.
Luo Xi frowned, and as he rushed over, he asked through the mental connection: "What's wrong?"
"fine."
Lina's reply came quickly, and it didn't seem like she was in any uncontrollable situation: "There's something here, it's something very strange, come and take a look."
Luo Xi quickly arrived at the broken wall in front.
But Lina was squatting alone under the broken wall in front. There was a small pile of unknown substance in the middle of a pile of weeds. It looked like soil, but it emitted a deep blue light, illuminating the entire wall blue.
Seeing Luo Xi coming over, Lina quickly raised a finger and shouted at Luo Xi: "Look, I think I can touch them with this thing!"
After saying that, she deliberately raised her fingers high, and her fingertips seemed to be stained with the blue soil, and they also emitted a blue light.
This is very strange. After all, Lina is a ghost. If she does not use her soul power, things in the ordinary material world cannot come into contact with her. But if she can touch this material, it means that this material has soul characteristics. What could it be?
Luo Xi observed curiously.
There are too many magical substances in the wizarding world. The duty of a wizard is to understand the various substances in this world. Now seeing this magical phenomenon, Luo Xi of course has to observe it carefully.
At the same time, Lina put her finger stained with blue mud to her nose and sniffed hard: "Wow, it smells so good! Is it a delicious dish? I really want to try it~"
Soul bodies generally do not have the five senses, let alone the sense of smell and taste. Substances that can make Lina feel sweet are also very rare, so she suddenly became eager to try and subconsciously put her finger into her mouth.
Luo Xi quickly warned her: "Don't do this!"
Lina turned her head and asked in confusion: "Do you know what this is?"
Luo Xi nodded, looked at the blue dirt on Lina's fingers, couldn't help but twitched her mouth, and gave her an answer that made her crazy: "This is feces."
Lina was stunned at first, then her eyes widened: "What!!!"
She jumped up and said, "Are you kidding me? How can this be feces? How can feces smell so good?!"
Luo Xi shrugged: "Indeed, unicorn feces is like this, but the fragrance is not a real physical fragrance, otherwise you can't smell it. It's just a stimulation to the soul, giving you a wrong signal to make you think it smells good."
He didn't continue talking because Lina in front of him was almost going crazy, and her whole face seemed to be distorted.
After all, she had just been praising the "delicious food" in her hand and almost ate it. Although as a ghost she couldn't really eat anything, the thought of her actions just now was really... "Ah!"
She screamed and shook her fingers desperately, all her previous joy gone.
On the other side, Luo Xi calmly took out a glass test tube and a small spoon from the space ring, squatted down and put the feces in front of him into the glass test tube little by little. Unicorns are very rare magical creatures, especially wild unicorns, which are rare to see. Their feces also have certain research value.
And more importantly, Lina frowned and said with disgust: "Since you know these are feces, what else are you doing?"
Luo Xi said without even turning his head: "We can take some of the feces of wild unicorns and study it later and do some experiments. In addition..."
Having said this, he paused for a moment, then raised his head and looked at the endless ruins in front of him, with a meaningful smile on his lips.
He said slowly: "If used properly, our journey will be much easier."
