Otherworldly Skeleton

When the sunlight gradually warmed up, Lu Yan came to the entrance of Kahui City.

This is an entrance 300 meters long and 500 meters wide, surrounded by supporting giant bones and iron bells made by blacksmiths. Slope, the surface of the slope is not simply loose soil, but has three different grounds, with flat stone steps in the middle, iron cable slides on the north side, and gravel trails on the south side.

The huge iron city gate has two layers. The first layer rises from the west end of the entrance, and is suspended from the iron pillars behind the entrance by more than a dozen iron cables. When it gets up, it can block the falling leaves of the anti-rot tree, which has a double effect.

The second layer of the city gate extends 20 meters inward from the entrance of the cave. It is a gate similar to the dragon stone in the cave of the Shi Ke people of the green system. It cannot be undone.

Without the city wall, Kahui City's defense methods seem to be very limited, but Lu Yan guesses that this special city can stand today, it will never be so simple, only with his rudimentary knowledge of city building, he can't see more tricks.

It was around nine o'clock in the morning, and the entrance of Kahui City was already very busy. There was an endless stream of skeletons coming and going. On the cable ramp, dozens of iron chains slid up and down to transport the iron boxes full of goods to the city. , or pull the empty boxes out of the city; on the gravel path on the other side, there are not a few slaves going back and forth. This is one of the cities closest to the grassland, but these slaves can enter and leave the city freely. Lu Yan couldn't help being surprised, isn't Kaman afraid that these humans will flee back to the grassland?

As soon as the team escorting the soul-stealing bandits appeared, the skeletons who were leaving the city immediately carefully moved out of the way. These civilian skeletons did not dare to block the way of the army.Walking down the steps for about 500 meters, after passing thousands of steps, Lu Yan's feet were numb from the shock, and he finally saw the true face of Kahui City.

A glorious city hidden deep underground.

Since Lu Yan came down from the ground, he slowly brought Kahui City into his eyes from a higher angle. At a glance, it was a bright ocean, with bits and pieces of light extending from his feet to the extreme distance , Lu Yan found that he could not see the edge of the city.The human vision limit is generally around 8000 meters, and an excellent shooter can see 1 meters away, but the eyesight of a skeleton is generally a little worse than that of ordinary humans. At around 7000 meters, things that are farther away look hazy. Unclear actual shape.

The Kahui City in front of Lu Yan's eyes seemed to be surrounded by a huge halo, and there were countless shining stars in the city, which seemed unreal like a dream.

"Hey, those who drink dirty water, I've never seen such a beautiful city!" The Qiang Gu standing next to Lu Yan and responsible for escorting him was the undercover Qiang Gu, named Yabin, who looked at the surprised Lu Yan with contempt. Yan and other human-shaped skeletons snorted coldly.

Lu Yan withdrew his gaze and glanced at Yabin lightly. He is also a monkey-shaped strong bone. Among the rogues, there are the most skeletons with a physique that is neither good nor bad. Therefore, it is indeed a suitable choice for him to be selected as an undercover agent. Lu Yan did not What to say, he was thinking about how to find a way out of this heavily guarded underground castle, not how to teach a bad-tongued little strong bone.

Yabin was taken aback by Lu Yan's indifferent eyes. He didn't expect a war bone to be so calm. When he was being sent to death, he dared to look at the strong bone one level higher with such a relaxed expression. He suddenly felt This faint expression is the scariest thing on the contrary, Yabin has a strong urge to kill Lu Yan on the spot... But he finally gave up this plan, leading the rumor that Kaman was looking for some kind of treasure in Qingdie Lake It has long been rumored in the army that this group of rogues have been to Qingdie Lake. If Kaman returns empty-handed from Qingdie Lake for the second time, he will definitely interrogate these rogues. If he recklessly kills a rogue before Kaman returns , Na Yabin knew that he should also go to be buried with this bandit.

Of course Yabin didn't want to be buried with Lu Yan, so he just glared at Lu Yan and threatened him to leave quickly.But in fact, Lu Yan's pace couldn't be quicker, because it was very crowded between Kahui City and the ascending slope.

No matter how to expand the entrance of the cave and divide the street, but the number of skeletons is there, one of the disadvantages of this kind of underground city is still exposed, that is, crowding, especially at the entrance of this kind of main road, counting the skeletons gathered from all directions Hugged together, the water that blocked the entrance couldn't get through.

"Get out of the way! Get out of the way!" Several skeleton riders rushed forward furiously, yelling, and trampled to death those slow-response skeletons.

Lu Yan was secretly surprised that the skeletons under Kaman's army would slaughter ordinary civilians so recklessly. It seems that Kaman is a very brutal leader. Too brutal rule often affects the tribute souls of the entire territory. The mode of upgrading the leaders is not entirely based on fighting, but more on the management of the skeletons in the territory and the absorption of their tribute souls.

The massacre of the skeleton riders achieved good results. The piled skeletons retreated to both sides like a tide, and most of them crowded on the gravel sidewalks and iron chain sidewalks, leaving the main stone steps in the middle to escort the bandits. Army skeletons walk.

Walking forward with broken bones on the ground, Lu Yan saw that the skeletons on both sides had the color of resentment, but facing the army skeletons that were both superior in number and physique, these civilian skeletons had no power to resist at all.

The underground soul gap in Kahui City is so large that you can't see the end at a glance. The main soul gap of this underground soul gap is spiral, entrenched under the entire Kahui City like a giant snake, and there are countless huge soul gaps from both sides of the soul gap. The bone pillars rose all the way, passed through a space of nearly [-] meters, and stood on the rock wall above Kahui City. There were many shining light spots hanging on the surface of these bone pillars, which illuminated the entire underground city.

After entering the urban area, Lu Yan saw the true face of this luminous object. It was not a torch, nor a bone soul, but a translucent stone. This stone was recognized by Lu Yan. It was called "Bright Stone", and it was an enchanted item. , made by an enchanter among slaves, it can generally emit light for as long as three months, but in the cities above the ground, torches are generally used for both heating and lighting functions, so Lu Yan, a bright stone, is rarely seen. See such a large amount of this stone in this underground city.

After a careful calculation, there may be hundreds of thousands of bright stones underground in the entire Kahui City. How many bright stones can an enchanter make in a day, and how many enchanters can there be in Kahui City... The more Lu Yan calculates, the more wrong it becomes, this Kaman must have There are other ways to obtain the Bright Stone, otherwise it is absolutely impossible to decorate this underground city like a glorious holy city.

Glancing at Rui Sien, this guy also looked suspiciously at the bright stone covered with bone pillars. Lu Yan knew that Rui Sien had the same doubts as himself, but neither of them could figure out the reason for it for a while, and neither of them could understand it. I might ask Yabin next to me, so I can only observe while walking, full of questions.

The surrounding main soul gap circled four times, dividing the entire Kahui City into five rings from the inside to the outside. The outermost fifth ring is home to outlying residents, free slaves, and neatly arranged buildings. Yugusi buildings, Lu Yan passed through these buildings, and after walking about 4000 meters, he came to the edge of the soul gap.

Before reaching the edge of the soul gap, Lu Yan felt that something was wrong. The soul gap should be dark and cold, but there was steam coming out of the soul gap, and there was a faint red light shining, and the surrounding temperature gradually increased.

It was only when he stepped onto the bone-iron bridge built above the soul gap that Lu Yan discovered the real secret of the soul gap under Kahui City. In the depths of the soul gap, fiery red and hot magma actually flowed.

Is the bottom of the soul gap magma?Lu Yan, who had never seen the bottom of a soul gap, looked at Rui Sien in surprise, and Rui Sien shook his head in surprise, saying that he had never heard of magma flowing at the bottom of a soul gap.

"Go, drink dirty water!" Yabin once again urged Lu Yan and Rui Sien viciously, while not forgetting to sarcastically say: "This is the famous Huohe Soul Gap, you wild bones have seen it for a long time today. !"

Shi Dong's soul words came into Lu Yan's mind: "My lord, you may not have heard of Huohe Soul Gap. It is very famous in this area. It not only brings light to Kahui City, but also keeps it warm. The role of the rising of rotten souls."

Lu Yan's heart moved, and the four-color bone soul between the palm bones disappeared in a flash. The bone really activated, and it absorbed some fire elements into his body. Only then did he understand how there are so many bright stones in Kahui City. thing.

This fire river soul gap not only produces rotten souls, but also emits fire elements. Using this extra fire element to make bright stones is dozens of times faster than extracting fire elements from the balance space, and the difficulty is greatly reduced, even if it is just a magic apprentice. A level enchanter should also be able to produce a large number of bright stones in a short period of time.

Anti-rot forest, underground soul gap, magma fire element, Lu Yan had to secretly praise the unique terrain conditions of Kahui City. Without the first two of these three conditions, Kahui City would not be able to be built. Without the third, If the city can't be built so comfortably or even luxuriously, it's no wonder that Kaman can find such a treasure land.

After entering the fourth circular urban area, the rogues were led to the north, and after walking along the arc-shaped streets for nearly half an hour, Lu Yan finally came to the prison department.

The prison department is a prison in the skeleton city, where hostile skeletons or illegal skeletons are held. However, the prison department in each city is generally useless, because the skeletons rarely have other punishments except the death penalty, and law enforcement officers like to be on the spot. Zheng-fa, if those illegal skeletons caught are of no value, they will usually be killed on the spot soon.As for the skeletons on the battlefield, they are rarely brought back to the city. They are either recruited during the march or killed directly.

Therefore, although the prison department occupies a large area, there are only a few skeletons in it, less than a hundred or so. Some of them spend money to clear up the relationship, try to win over the guys who come in and be locked up for half a year and then let go, or they accidentally broke into Kahui. The field refugees in the city were observed for a few days and then released to do coolies.

The rogues were brought into a large closed house, which was made of mixed bones and iron. It was so hard that even the strong bones could not be broken. Moreover, the prison guards were two horsemen and more than 100 strong bones. , so I am not worried that the few strong bones among the rogues may escape.

Lu Yan squatted down on one foot of the room, thinking about how to escape, when suddenly a familiar soul word flooded into his mind: "My lord, you really came here!"
