Returning from the abyss

Chapter 879 Wall Penetration

The battle between the Hugou and Akner has come to an end. It is not a complete victory. It is just that the Hugou tore off one of Arisa's arms. What a difficult thing.Hu Quan took out a piece of cloth and wrapped that arm around his waist, and the crazy state just now slowly returned to calm.

"Better?" Akner asked.

"That woman..." Hu Quan was still grinding his teeth, "she ran so fast."

"If she hadn't received some order, that person would not have retreated. You should be able to feel that since she chose to leave, it means that the core goal has been completed, or there is some serious problem."

"Well... I can't think of this." Hu Quan scratched his chin, "It's your job to use your brain, Akner, I just shred the garbage that dares to stand in front of the leader."

Akner talked helplessly. He wanted to tell Hu Quan that brains are essential if he wants to follow Qisha all the time. However, this kind of words have actually been said many times, and learning is a gradual process. It is also impossible for Hu Quan to become a brain school overnight.

At this moment, Akner frowned, and a green card flew out of him, hovering above his head.

"A friendly army? Erqijiu is still repairing, Gong Ying has already left, oh... Lu Ning is back."

"Lu Ning? Let's go over and thank her!" Hu Quan immediately became cheerful again.

Akner shrugged, turned his head and shouted, "Two Seven Nine! How's the restoration going?"

"There are still 20 seconds." Er Qijiu responded, "The overall unit has been restored, and some signs of damage remain on the external armor, and it will be regenerated soon...the regeneration is complete."

"Then go meet our friends." Akner greeted.

Lu Ning soon saw Akna. At this moment, there were not many people on the edge of the original rift. After the members of the Xunyou Sisterhood retreated, the people next to the rift would naturally continue to march towards the city, that is, Akna. Those who encounter more difficult opponents like Nana will still be here.

"It looks like you have won." Lu Ning looked at Akner and Hu Quan. There were no obvious signs of trauma. In a two-on-one situation, this side still has the advantage.

"Yeah, but I couldn't keep the other party." Hu Quan grinned, "But although that woman is very annoying, the quality of meat and blood is good, and there is a strong aroma of fine wine that seems to have been aged for a long time."

Lu Ning felt a little uncomfortable after hearing this, but Akner immediately noticed Lu Ning's reaction, raised his hand and knocked on Hu Quan's head, and explained: "The genetic modification surgery Hu Quan received can allow him to pass The smell of flesh and blood is used to lock people, and his tracking ability also comes from this."

"There's no need to explain this." Lu Ning's discomfort just now was only for a moment. She knew very well what kind of life the people in the dead country were in, and it was much more than this kind of thing.

"In short, there is a problem in the city." Lu Ning told Akena the more important information he had obtained before, "The altar of the Xunyou Sisterhood was forced to retreat by a powerful organization, but at this moment the people in the city The situation is more chaotic than the surrounding urban areas. I don't know if you can contact Qisha again, but it will be very dangerous to go in now..."

"We are not afraid of any danger!" Hu Quan said loudly, "We are here to find out the way for the leader, if we don't find out all the dangers, so what—er? Akner?"

Akner knocked him on the head again.

"Can you describe in detail?" Akner frowned and said, "The characteristics of the language and actions of those so-called 'earthly' people?"

"I can only try my best, because I didn't understand what methods those people used."

Of course, the three of Akner will continue to investigate inside. After Lu Ning gave a general explanation, the three of them quickly decided to go to see the place where the strange battle fragments were produced, because people like cultists used to I have actually seen quite a few in my missions, even if there is any difference, it is better to deal with than completely unknown.

Of course, Lu Ning had made an appointment with Tan Ya and others in advance to go there, so she told Akner the direction she was going, and Akner took out a box of poker and handed it to Lu Ning: "Put this on your body." , the cards except for the two trump cards are all passive defense types, as a thank you for telling us the situation in the city. I hope we will have a chance to meet again, and I believe the leader is willing to communicate with you again."

Lu Ning recalled Qisha's attitude, she was noncommittal, and thanked her for accepting the card box.

"It's really running around..." Lu Ning sighed after the three of Akner left, "But I have prepared all the backup methods, and the rest is to take advantage of this time to pull in the harbor There are many forces from all parties, and we have done as many tasks as possible. So... there are other tourists who have also been pulled in? Where are they?"

Lu Ning looked around, feeling a little puzzled.At least Ke Daolin and Mei Yu also came, and it's definitely not just these two people, but she didn't see any other tourists along the way, even if Shen Yuancheng is big... that's a bit strange.

She is walking towards the north, and she is not in a hurry now. After the central city has been destroyed by the dust of the world, there will probably be no people gathering for a period of time. Everyone is hiding in the dark, so the "silent" mantra on her body Can play a very good shielding effect.As she withdrew the power of "Winter", the ice armor on her body gradually disappeared, turning into a hazy black gauze dress, a black bowler hat replaced the crown on her head, and a mask covering the lower half of her face A good interpretation of the original meaning of "mo".

Even though the starry sky was overhead, Lu Ning seemed to have completely merged into the shadow of the city.She quickly changed her position in the gap between the buildings, and saw people in twos and threes on the road, but she didn't stop to check their identities.

After coming to a tall building, Lu Ning stopped and looked north, but was stunned for a moment.

The quantity is wrong.

Previously, Lu Ning followed Tan Ya to see the group of men in black robes in the distance from the commanding heights. There were about 80 or [-] of them. Due to the low buildings in the northern urban area, these people were on the move, and there was almost nowhere to hide. .But now Lu Ning took a quick look... at least there must be [-] people.

How did it proliferate?

There must be some special force at work, but no clue can be seen from such a far observation. Lu Ning jumped off the roof and landed on the ground without a sound. Under the external defense of the mantra, she was only affected A little impact, not even hurt.

But when she landed, she felt someone approaching nearby.

Being in absolute silence, I became more sensitive to sound.Lu Ning turned her head and saw a man in a suit and leather shoes and an old lady with a cane walking towards her.

"Well?"

Before the man approached, he let out a cry of surprise, and Lu Ning knew at this moment that he seemed to have been discovered.She hurriedly dodged and wanted to leave, but there was a resistance behind her - a net appeared there.

"Catch it, Yu Po, you're not one of us, get rid of it." The man's cold voice sounded, and the old lady whom he called "Yu Po" snorted dissatisfiedly, but still raised her hand and pointed at it. In Lu Ning's direction.

Lu Ning pulled out Mo's black dagger to cut the net behind her, but without special means of destruction, she couldn't get rid of the thing behind her in a few seconds, and then she heard the old lady's hand There was a loud noise like an artillery bombardment, and the indigo beam of light blasted directly through the road where Lu Ning was.

"Solved?" After the shelling, the man—Mr. Shao raised his hand and waved the nearby smoke and dust.

"Are you questioning our power to destroy the truth? Not even the scum is left!" Granny Yu said angrily, "Also, don't talk to me in that commanding tone! We are just a cooperative relationship!"

"I know, I know... Tsk, Mr. Shi'er has already made a move, we have to go there quickly." Mr. Shao glanced at his watch, "This seaport...we have to finish our business here before the extradition man sends the store manager. layout."

"Humph……"

=
Lu Ning found that she still had many weaknesses.For example, in this kind of unexpected encounter, or if the opponent directly launches a long-distance restricted and aggravated firepower bombardment, she basically has no room to fight back.

However, the defense is still defensible, and the playing cards given by Akner are not needed.When Lu Ning realized that she couldn't cut the net instantly, she let Mo form a spherical net in front of her, and when the bombardment came, she followed the grid and introduced it into the net behind her. The energy immediately destroyed that layer of net, but the violent collision from different mantra energies also pushed Lu Ning back, and she took a step back, only to find that there was nothing behind her.

She fell into the space behind her, the gravity did not come from below, but from behind.The sudden gravity flip made her head queasy, but she was up from the ground a few seconds later.

It is a clean marble slab, but there are many uneven marks on it. Lu Ning got up from the ground and looked around in a daze... The black dress on her body has not disappeared, which means that this is also a seaport.The area of ​​this harbor is much smaller than that of Shenyuan City. The streets are paved with white marble, and there is a not too bright sun in the sky. There are no clouds and no wind, and there is no sense of stuffiness.

Was she directly blasted out of Shen Yuancheng?
Lu Ning didn't expect that there was still a channel between the seaports, and this...is it considered a smuggled immigration without extradition?She looked around. She had never seen this harbor before, and she didn't know much about such an architectural style.All the buildings are made of the same marble as the ground. If you insist, the construction method is very similar to a pyramid, but the shape is not a pyramid, but a spiral.

As for the creatures living here, Lu Ning looked around and couldn't find anything resembling a creature. She could only walk along the road to the tallest building.It is not difficult to find a way to leave here, but Lu Ning is not willing to just leave like this.

If this is a working seaport, there must be shops here, just like Rose Street and Sweet Harbor before.And if this place is as uninhabited as the ruined city of Shenyuan City and Wu Que...

Fortunately, there is indeed a store manager in the harbor that shows signs of human activities.

When Lu Ning came to the door of the tallest building, the door opened automatically, and she also saw what the shop manager here looked like.It looks like a human-shaped cell, the body surface is covered by a transparent film, and the body is flowing with azure liquid. A very obvious light gray core is located in the part that should be the heart.

There are no eyes on the head, and Lu Ning didn't know how the store manager saw her, so she heard the other party say hello: "Welcome to Daydream Hotel, guest, you want to have a sleeping dream , or a waking dream?"

"What's the difference between falling asleep and waking up?" Lu Ning asked.

"The seaport flutters between dreams and reality. Do you like to respond to the call of the deep ocean, or do you want to be based on the inland?" The store manager said softly.

Lu Ning seemed to understand.

"But... the manager of the harbor, why would you persuade others to go to the ocean? Aren't you all avoiding the appearance of ghost ships?" Lu Ning asked with a frown.

"Ghost ship... Ha, ghost ship." The store manager shook his head lightly, and the fluid in his body began to flow.

Lu Ning took a step back vigilantly.

"Don't be afraid, my guest, this is the anchor point we provide. Dreams are dreams after all. We are immersed in dreams and clearly know that we exist in reality. This is the difference between us and dreams. Of course, if you don't mean it, We can do other deals as well."

Lu Ning looked around again, and asked the question she wanted to ask the most: "Is this the White Harbor?"

"Of course... the three shops here, the Daydream Hotel, the White Feather Firm, and the White Wax Museum all started with this. It seems that the guests have heard of things about this place? This is not the first time you have come Have you reached the harbor?"

"Of course not." Lu Ning nodded slightly, feeling a little better, at least the white harbor named auspicious by the distribution center, at least it will not encounter particularly dangerous things as soon as it comes up.

"It's even more convenient if you're a regular customer! You have a lot of anchor points on your body. It seems that you are from the inland. It's not like we don't have access here... Oh, you don't need it either?"

"You said this is a hotel... so what kind of guests do you usually receive here? And what are the anchor points provided by the other two? Can you tell me?"

The store manager laughed: "It's okay to tell you, it's just to open a store for business, and the emphasis is on fair dealings."

"That's easy to say." Lu Ning stretched out her fingers, pinched the center of her eyebrows, and gently pulled outward, "taking" an emerald-like object out of her body.

That is part of the knowledge of "迴".The store managers in the seaport will not collect general property, either sign a contract here to use the anchor here, or... have to exchange some unique things, according to Dong's meaning, the knowledge of the mantra is very important to these store managers. It is very useful, because these store managers are also under the threat of the mantra landing, and knowing more about the mantra will allow them to escape in time when the crisis comes.

Dong was right, when Lu Ning copied part of the knowledge, the liquid in the store manager's body was so excited that it bubbled.
