From Prisoner to Si Chen..

Chapter 273 Action
Early the next morning.

Ji Lan got up early and opened his eyes at five o'clock before dawn.

Because he had to carry out the task of digging a grave today, he had to get up early to give himself enough time to practice.

In Jilan's mind, improving his strength always comes first.

All external matters and factors must give way to this.

After this round of meditation, absorbing the elements of the universe, and stretching my fists and feet, it was already past seven o'clock.

Gilan simply washed up in the bathroom of the hotel room, then got dressed and walked out.

Going downstairs to the restaurant on the first floor, only Maiev and Garnold were dining.

Seeing Gilan coming, Maiev greeted her warmly, and then waved to the waiter.

"Good morning, Mr. Gillan." Maiev smiled. "The supplies here are temporarily lacking. There are only simple regular set meals. Do you want one?"

"Yeah." Gillan did not deny it. "A colonel named 'Yordan'. When war broke out in Brak City, I was here to kill him."

When the car drove into Haddonfield Street and arrived at the original "Cork Brothers Scrap Depot", Gillan was shocked to find that it had become a flat wilderness.

Everyone also cast admiring glances at him.

"Mr. Guillen, I've seen your file... It seems that you once killed a federal colonel?"

"Your Excellency 'Grave Diggers', please remove the 'Nightmare Stele' inside as soon as possible... The occultist accompanying the army said that its movements are more frequent and it is very likely to erupt in the near future."

As soon as the two cars in which Guilan and his party were riding approached, dozens of rifles were pointed at them. The military leader responsible for sealing off the site, a middle-aged captain with a serious expression, led his people.

Maiev said something to the waiter and put a few Meilang coins into his hand as a tip.

Within a few months, many green plants grew on the ruins.

Ms. Teresa hummed.

Ji Lan responded politely to the two of them, smiled and nodded, and said:
"Well, the conditions are limited, there's nothing to be particular about."

"Amazing." Ms. Teresa said with emotion.

The middle-aged captain said in a deep voice.

The empire takes this very seriously.

Gilan chatted with the two of them while eating breakfast. Ms. Teresa, Renault, Muguer and Kaya also went downstairs one after another.

Swish!
The gun-wielding soldiers put down their rifles, and two others quickly ran to the door and removed the temporary barriers.

He gestured to the soldiers behind him again.

Not to mention the danger, even the most basic living facilities will take some time to restore, which is very inconvenient.

Ms. Teresa made a gesture, and everyone stood up in unison and left the hotel together.

It can be said that even with the official call of the empire and the subsidies and support from various policies, few wealthy merchants and nobles are willing to invest or settle in this dilapidated town that has just been recovered.

The group of people set off in the car and headed straight towards the poor area at the foot of Fengshan Mountain.

"Okay, let's have another sandwich and coffee set."

This place has been blocked by a temporary fence, and there is also an entire regiment of imperial troops of about a hundred people scattered around. They are always on guard and do not allow ordinary people to approach.

Every once in a while, you can see the remains of large and small buildings. There are very few pedestrians on the road. Even if there are, most of them are poorly dressed and gray-haired. The whole city is filled with a desolate atmosphere.

By the time everyone had finished eating, it was already half past eight.

She showed her ID and badge, and the captain's expression slowed down, and he quickly gave a standard imperial cross salute to Ms. Teresa and everyone who got off the car one after another.

When everyone was walking halfway, Ms. Teresa asked casually.

He found that the situation here was quite tragic.

Ms. Teresa opened the car door and got out of the car.

Therefore, most of the new residents who come here are the lower class who cannot survive, or the working class who are looking for opportunities.

A group of people came to the entrance of a cave.

"Don't worry, we're here for this."

Along the way, Gilan observed the street scene along the way through the car window.

The captain said and stepped aside.

Ms. Teresa greeted everyone and led the team inside.

After a while.

"Nightmare Monument" belongs to the highest level of mysterious disasters.

"Sorry to trouble you all."

The other gravediggers turned to look at Gillan with a somewhat surprised expression.

Not long after.

As the person in charge, she had already contacted the local officials in Brak City and dispatched two cars overnight.

The latter readily agreed and quickly went to the kitchen to greet him.

The surroundings of the cave entrance were artificially reinforced, and some stone bricks and cement were built to create a simple entrance.

The originally vertical hole was dug into a slope to make it easier for people to get down.

All the gravediggers present were all spiritual mystics with extremely high spiritual knowledge.

With his spiritual vision, he could easily detect that the bottom of the cave entrance was filled with a rich red "nightmare aura".

"really weird……"

Ms. Teresa observed and groaned.

"The nightmare energy of this nightmare monument only lingers in the cave and does not escape."

On the side, the dwarf Renault sitting on Mgul's head sighed:
"It's fortunate that this is the case, otherwise the consequences would be disastrous..."

“Without further ado, let’s get started.”

Ms. Teresa gave the order without further hesitation.

"'Guide' Gilan Iros, you will go down to the dream first to explore the situation of the 'Nightmare in the Monument'."

"Yes, Ms. Teresa."

"This is your first grave-digging mission, so proceed with caution."

Teresa's eyes were gentle and she gave an instruction.

Gilan nodded and took steps.

As the "lightkeeper", the dwarf Renault also patted Mgul's shoulder.

The latter didn't ask any more questions and took two steps forward in tacit agreement.

Renault took out the "clear lamp" and lit it. The light illuminated the entrance of the cave, and he could barely see the scene below, which was a certain convenience for Jilan.

Wow!

Jilan held his hat with one hand and supported the ground with the other, and slid into the cave seven or eight meters below.

When he came to Shabotai's tomb again, he moved skillfully and took two steps forward, approaching the nightmare monument.

The red mist swallowed it up instantly.

Ji Lan stood there and closed his eyes unconsciously.

wow——

As soon as he regained consciousness, he noticed the changes in his surrounding environment.

He came to an open-air stone temple at night. The environment here was very similar to Jilan's spiritual kingdom.

There is no other reason, it is precisely because he used "Bailan" to swallow up the fragments of this nightmare kingdom.

The familiar stone sculpture of the old man still stood in the center of the hall, holding a square-headed long-handled stone hammer in his hand.

There were corpses all around, just as they were before Gilan left. Even on the round stone platform, there was still flesh and blood left.

"This is the Palace of Condemnation!"

"I am the hammer of justice!"

"Anyone who comes to steal the power of the palace is considered a thief!"

The old stone statue had a solemn expression and spoke a powerful voice.

It was covered with fine cracks, but it was still full of oppression.

With a cry, the old stone statue picked up the stone hammer.

"Judgment! Death penalty!"

Bang! !

The tall stone statue jumped up and fell from the sky.

Without saying a word, Ji Lan activated the secret skill and dyed his blond hair red. At the same time, the muscles in both legs bulged and the feet stepped on.

Deng!
He rushed out and avoided the impact of the stone statue.

There was a dull boom.

The old stone statue smashed cracks into the ground, sending gravel and dust flying everywhere.

And Jilan had already taken the opportunity to rush to the stone platform.

Without hesitation, he took out the cane of justice and pressed the deformation switch. Just a few clicks were heard, and the head of the stick turned into a ferocious hammer.

Immediately, a hammer fell!
Bang! ! !
The hammer head exploded under pressure, blooming with green sparks.

The terrifying explosion impact, coupled with Jilan's terrifying power, smashed the stone platform into pieces with just one hammer!
This time, his performance was much better than before...

Ji Lan ignored the roar and strong wind coming from behind, and with a flick of his hand with an expressionless face, he directly corrupted the cracked stone platform.

In the corner of his sight, a colorful pattern appeared next to the colorful number, which was exactly the one Ji Lan had obtained before.

"The brand of the kingdom (incomplete). It originated from the soul of the long-lived Sabotea Louis, belonging to the spiral of the furnace staff, the path of September Sichen's 'Snow Lady', and the fourth-level 'Judge'."

Whoosh! !

Ji Lan didn't even look back, and just dodged to the side.

The next moment, a huge stone hammer hit the empty space next to him. Along with the loud noise, the entire stone palace shook violently.

"Cunning people, don't dodge!"

"Ruling! No movement in the palace!"

The old stone statue shouted solemnly.

Because the core of the nightmare has been completely destroyed by Gilan, the cracks all over its body have become more serious, and even stones and powder are constantly falling down.

Gilan looked back and chuckled.

"Sorry, I won't play with you anymore."

This is official business, and there is no benefit in fighting the Nightmare Guard to death. Anyway, the Kingdom Brand has been obtained, so he directly chose to avoid the battle.

'Banlan, quit! '

Ji Lan secretly thought.

Swah——

As soon as the old stone statue jumped over, Jilan had already disappeared without a trace.

After he woke up from the nightmare, he did not open his eyes directly. Instead, he closed his eyes tightly and pretended to be in great pain.

"Lampkeeper" Renault, who was always observing at the entrance of the cave, frowned when he saw this. He turned and glanced at Ms. Teresa, who nodded with a solemn expression.

Ding! !

Leno immediately played "Clear Lights."

Only then did Ji Lan open his eyes in response, and let out a deep breath with lingering fear.

"Mr. Gillan, come up quickly!"

The concerned shout of the petite twin-tailed Kaya came from above the cave entrance.

Gilan turned around, stepped quickly on the slope, and jumped back to the ground.

As soon as he came up, he saw the other team members casting concerned glances at him. And the long-haired "royal sister" Maiev took two steps forward and asked:
"Are you okay, Mr. Gillan?"

"It's okay." Gilan shook his head. "But this 'Nightmare in the Monument' is indeed dangerous."

Before Ms. Teresa and others could ask questions, he said again:
"The scene inside is an open-air stone temple. The 'Nightmare Guard' is a stone sculpture of an old man over two meters high, holding a giant hammer. It has a strong home field advantage. It can determine the 'rules' and impose unequal constraints on intruders. …”

"Did you find the core of the nightmare?"

Ms. Teresa nodded and asked the most crucial question.

Everyone cast concerned glances at the blond young man.

"Well, I found it."

Gillan nodded.

"But I've destroyed it."

"?!"

Everyone was shocked.
