The Age of Machines

Chapter 372 Recovery
The stone blocking the gate has been shattered, they don't know what's inside, but Hermes does.Just looking at the collapsed gate and the surrounding ruins, his deep pupils shrank.Breaking away from Beixi's hand, some strength from nowhere made him get up slowly, and staggered into the gate.

"Where's Dill?" After following Hermes for two steps, Lollipop found that Dill, who was supposed to be following them, had disappeared without a trace.

"It's gone..." Ukiyo-e turned around and saw that there was really nothing, spread his hands, and stated a very important matter without emotion.

"President, look at him like this." Peacock pointed to Ukiyo-e's insignificant appearance, and complained seriously.

However, Beixi and Weishengmo had followed him long ago, and they didn't hear what he was saying at all.Lollipop and the others saw that Bei Xi had left, so they didn't bother to worry. NPCs wouldn't run anyway.

"I didn't do anything?" Ukiyo-e raised his eyebrows puzzled, patted Peacock's hand away, and prepared to follow the footsteps of the crowd.Peacock hooked Ukiyo-e's neck with his backhand, and smiled: "Stinky boy, it's against you."

Ukiyo-e saw him like this, and the little flame in his heart "swished" high, damn it, this is the opposite.The two wrestled at the door, and the lollipop tugged at Ning Que's sleeve. Ning Que turned to look at her, and saw her lift her chin to let him see the door.

Ning Que squinted over there, saw Ukiyo-e and Peacock wrestling together, and sighed in his heart: two idiots.He picked up a big rock and smashed it directly.

Clapping their hands, the two continued to move forward with the large army.

A rock suddenly fell under their feet. The two stopped their fists, looked down at the rock at their feet, and then looked up at the front. Lollipop dug towards them with two fingers, then pointed to Beixi, and then pointed at them. After digging, he turned his head and went back, ignoring them.

"I won't mess with you anymore." Peacock let go of someone's collar, as if letting you go this time, and walked forward swaggeringly.Seeing his walking posture, Ukiyo-e straightened his neckline, so I don't care about you like this.

Hermes kept running ahead, passing the inner hall, followed by the holy spring.Most of the places I saw along the way were desolate and dilapidated, with many bones, and the old scenery of the city of priests was long gone.

"How could this be..." Looking at the holy spring that had dried up, the spring was covered with dust and weeds, moss grew on the edge of the pool, and there were spots of rust.The bones of the dead are almost visible here... How many people died in the city of priests that night?How many dead souls inhabit this city and have nowhere to live?

Hermes still didn't believe it, he crossed the holy spring, ran into the corridor, stepped on the dead leaves, ignored the dirty air, and sank into the gloomy corridor.

The corridor should have been able to see the scenery on both sides, but it was surrounded by dense and strange plants, which blocked the light on both sides, so that it was very dark inside.

Following Hermes' footsteps, within a minute, a group of people walked out of the corridor and came to a large lawn, facing a towering giant tree, and a wooden house under the giant tree.

Hermes stopped in front of the wooden house, knelt down suddenly, and said in a respectful tone: "My lord, Hermes was ordered to protect you. Now you are late, please punish me, my lord."

As soon as these words came out, there was an instant silence.

After more than ten seconds passed, no one responded. Hermes pursed his lips and slowly got up.

Walking to the front of the wooden house, he said softly: "My lord, please forgive me for being rude." He stretched out his hand to push the wooden door open, but his fingers only lightly touched the dilapidated door, but it seemed as if he had used great force. It opened wide open, made a "bang" sound, fell before his eyes, and was damaged by him.

Hermes looked at his hands with a dull expression, and after a few seconds, he had that expression and walked into the wooden house.

"This NPC is really persistent." He had already told him that the priest was dead, but he insisted on verifying it one by one.

Beixi can probably understand Hull's behavior.The more you care about a person, the less willing you are to believe her death so easily.

Looking up at the towering tree in front of him, the once lush tree of life is now withered and dead.

After a long time, Hermes came out.His complexion was pale, his pupils were lifeless, and his whole person looked dead, like a walking dead, lifeless.

Seeing him like this, Beixi shook his head. "Now you should believe it...the priest is dead." Sighing softly, he added: "The city of the priest is only in ruins, and now there is no living thing...except you and us."

Hermes stopped, stared at Beixi with empty eyes, and asked, "Who are you?"

"She's not dead." Beixi narrowed her eyes and said flatly.

"what?"

"Urlin is not dead."

The empty eyes shrank suddenly, and the fists came directly to Beixi. As soon as Wei Shengmo moved, he saw Beixi had expected it, and caught the fist from Hermes with one hand, and let it take its course. There was a domineering over-the-shoulder fall, and after the person fell to the ground, he subconsciously stepped on his head.

Everyone: God Consciousness...

Wei Shengmo also raised his eyebrows slightly, and retreated into the line with a smile in his eyes.

Seemingly regaining consciousness, Hermes looked at Beixi with malice, and growled, "Who are you? Are you with Urlin?"

"Do you know why you have survived until now?" Looking at the struggling Hermes, Beixi asked coldly.

Seeing that he didn't want to answer, Beixi curled her lips and continued: "Because you have to do something for Urlin~ How could she be willing to kill you? You are her loyal guardian of bad luck."

"I can't do anything for her!" Hermes yelled angrily.

"Have you forgotten?"

forget... what?
"Have you forgotten what happened after entering the city of priests?" Hearing this, Hermes frowned, as if he was trying to remember.He lost part of his memory...

"Have you forgotten who you ordered to protect the priest?"

Hermes looked confused, yes, who sent him to protect the priest?Why is he still alive now after the city of priests was destroyed?The memory before and after entering the city of priests is completely blank.

Seeing his appearance, Beixi let him go and backed away.

Hermes got up, seemed to have regained his senses, and covered his head to search his memory seriously.

Everyone gathered beside Beixi, "How does the president know that he works for Urlin?"

"Guess." Beixi pouted, prevaricating with a reason.

"Every damn person in Priest City died that night, but Urlin and the king lived. If he wasn't doing things for Urlin, he was doing things for King Dis!" Lollipop asserted.

Dis?

What a familiar name.

Hermes suddenly let out a huge roar, and everyone was shocked, what happened again.Seeing his distorted face, he backed away quickly, wouldn't he have another fight, right?

After more than ten seconds, Hermes stopped his abnormal behavior and got up slowly, his amber pupils were staring at Beixi and the others.

"My lord, the sun god Dis."
