Creating a Different World - Chapter 2704
[Chapter 2704: Ruined City]
When Jia Zhengjin came here, he was already familiar with everything about the ruins, but he would not tell the team members. After all, it was too strange to know the internal structure of the ruins that receded once every thirty years in advance!
He moved back and forth in the ruins with the body of a saint, and could reach any corner in an instant, and visit all areas in a few seconds.
But according to the concept of ordinary people, the internal structure of the ruins is actually very complex and vast.
It only took him a few seconds to get from the entrance to the ruins city. At the normal exploration speed of the team members, it would take most of the day just to walk. Moreover, if there was no one to show the way, the surrounding terrain was particularly complex, and people would be dizzy after going around. It would be good to walk out in a day.
Fortunately, there was Sco in the team, and his scorpion tail lion played a big role.
Jia Zhengjin could not reveal that he had been here, so he could only pretend to be a novice who knew nothing, and followed the team and let the team members lead him.
But Sco could ride the scorpion tail lion to fly into the sky, overlooking the entire area from a high vantage point, and see the real road clearly.
Just like that, when he rode the Scorpion Tail Lion around in the air, he came back and immediately reported: “Captain, there is a huge cave in that direction, which seems to be the only entrance. All other places are dead ends.”
“Okay, you lead the way in the air!”
“Yes!”
With Sco riding the Scorpion Tail Lion to lead the way, the team saved a lot of time and avoided getting lost.
At about 1 pm, the team arrived at the cave smoothly. Sco got off and put away the Scorpion Tail Lion, and entered the cave together.
After walking in the cave for half an hour, they finally came out from the other side of the cave, and the mysterious ruins city came into view.
“Captain, look!” Alvis pointed at the ruins city excitedly, “It seems that there is indeed an unknown tribe here! Let’s go in and take a look. If we can find the leader of this tribe, we may be able to get precious magic props or treasures.”
“Don’t worry!” Seeing that he couldn’t wait to go forward, Jia Zhengjin hurriedly stopped him, “Don’t you think it’s strange? The ruins are so quiet. If there are really living people, at least we can hear the movement, right?”
This made all the members on the scene alert. Every simple person who could stand here, although overwhelmed by joy, quickly accepted Jia Zhengjin’s statement.
“I’ll go investigate!” Sco jumped on the manticore and flew towards the ruins city.
In fact, he can also turn into a giant bird, but when he has a mount, he will definitely save his magic power, so that he can ensure his own safety in case of emergencies.
Sco flew over the ruins city, and everyone else stayed quiet, tried to hold their breath, and focused their eyes on the entrance of the city.
Flying high in the sky, Sco could see the internal structure of the ruins city and the empty scene on the desolate streets.
The city was full of weeds and mosses, even the houses were covered with lush grass and leaves, which would not be the case in a place where people live.
Looking carefully, there was no living creature on the road.
After a circle, he flew back to the front of the team: “Captain, this city seems to have been abandoned for more than a hundred years. There is no way there are living people! I’m afraid the race we are looking for has long been extinct or migrated to other places.”
“Yes!” Jia Zhengjin nodded slightly, “Let’s go into the city to explore, but be careful and stay alert! Just looking from the outside may not reveal all the dangers.” “
Yes!” Sco and other members of the team nodded.
“I’ll lead the way!” Alvis drew his sword, took a few good warriors, and ran directly to the front of the team and marched towards the city entrance.
Magicians, priests, archers and other professions followed closely behind, protecting Jia Zhengjin in the middle of the team, and advancing in a mighty manner.
After entering the city, Alvis decisively led the team to investigate the vicinity of the city gate, and found several skeletons wearing soldier armor in the guard sentry house, and a battle broke out immediately.
Of course, these low-level skeletons were no match, and Alvis easily wiped them all out by himself.
After occupying the city gate sentry post, Albis reported: “Captain, some low-level skeleton undead were found here. It is initially suspected that they are the soldiers of this ethnic group guarding the city. All the skeletons at the sentry post have been eliminated. According to this situation, there may be quite a few undead in the city!”
“Well! It seems that this race did not migrate, but died in the city.” Jia Zhengjin said, “We must search the entire city, find out what happened in the ruins, and then record it and bring it back to the Adventurer’s Guild.”
“Captain, considering that we don’t know much about this place.” Scott suggested, “There may be various crises hidden in the city. To be on the safe side, please stay at the sentry post for the time being, at least it is safe here. Others will separately check all the buildings inside the city, and wait until it is safe before asking you to go over!”
“Yes, Captain!” Albis said loudly, “Don’t blame me for being straightforward. With your strength, it is safer to wait here when the enemy is unknown! This way we can also let go and not be restricted.”
In fact, to put it bluntly, these masters on the scene were afraid that this “Captain Cohen” would drag them down.
Even though he has become much stronger with the help of magic equipment, he is still the one who is always at the bottom of the list in people’s impression. It takes time to change other people’s opinions.
Jia Zhengjin can also understand the concerns of the team members. He doesn’t plan to interfere casually this time.
Because they have explored in advance, there is no threat to the existence of the team members in the ruins, and they can solve any problems by themselves.
So he nodded and replied: “No problem! Then I will wait at the sentry post. You should be careful and notify your teammates in time if there is any situation.”
“Yes!!” Seeing him agree, everyone secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
The most feared thing is that the leader “overestimates his own abilities” and insists on following the expedition. At that time, he will make trouble and give people a headache.
The leader is reasonable and reassures everyone.
So Jia Zhengjin was left at the sentry post to watch Sco, Albis and all the strong adventurers of the Holy Spirit Adventure Group enter the city separately, and begin to enter different buildings in a balanced combination of warriors, archers, magicians, priests, etc. in a small team mode. Jia Zhengjin
ran to the top of the sentry post alone, lying on the city wall and looking towards the city.
The team members entered different buildings and soon heard the sound of metal weapons colliding, as well as their shouts and magic spells.
In short, every place was very lively, and there were even flames in several buildings. Some magicians were very excited when they encountered monsters, and they were not afraid of causing fires.
Through the virtual map, you can easily see the red dots of monsters in each building, as well as the comparison of the team members’ forces with the opponent.
Fortunately, the combat effectiveness of the undead creatures during the day is relatively weak, and they dare not run outside the house in the sun. The team members are also strong, and the team is more powerful, and the situation is completely one-sided. Only the team that encounters the BOSS may have a harder time and need a big battle.
