MTL - After Cheating, I Became the Strongest Beast Master-Chapter 212 Shadow City
Chapter 212 The Giant City of Shadows
"Try not to go out at night. It's not Daxia outside. It's easy to get into trouble if you are alone outside at night." Han Yuning told Chen Xing.
“Thank you, instructor, for reminding me.” Chen Xing nodded to express his understanding.
“Take this money. Spiritual gold is a high-end currency in many cities. Normally, ordinary things cannot be purchased with spiritual gold. They are all traded with spiritual iron.” Han Yuning took out a small yellow bag and handed it to Chen Xing.
Chen Xing took it and there was a buzzing sound inside.
It looks like there are many metal objects.
Chen Xing opened the bag and saw some white iron-like things inside.
Take out a piece, about the size of a penny, white and gray, but thinner.
“Ten pieces of spiritual iron can probably buy one meal in the city.” Han Yuning explained.
Chen Xing was thoughtful after hearing this, then he probably understood the purchasing power of spiritual iron.
After a cursory glance, there were at least a thousand pieces of spiritual iron in the bag, and I didn’t know what the spiritual iron was made of.
Oops!
Chen Xing has heard of it before,
It is quiet in the dead of night.
According to the map Han Yuning took out,
Of course, in the eyes of the locals, he and Han Yuning are only natives from other places.
The city is relatively stable inside, and Chen Xing has not seen much chaos so far.
The teleportation array can teleport a long distance each time, but the area of the foreign land is larger.
The boss looked at Chen Xing strangely, and then quoted the price.
Knocked on the tutor's door.
If you are unlucky and the city you are in is not large and the passenger flow is relatively small, you will have to wait for several days in the city before you can continue to take the teleportation array.
Put the bag away and go back to your room next door.
Finally, I relied on my intelligence to decisively choose four kinds of food.
It does not mean that all foreigners look the same. Depending on the region, their racial appearance is also slightly different.
Chen Xing left the bun shop carrying a bowl of mutton-like soup, a red milk porridge with red fruits floating on it, a bag of milk of unknown type, and the last bun the size of a bowl.
Fortunately, not all four portions were soup and porridge.
“Put it on the table.” Han Yuning picked up the hairband and tied it into a low ponytail.
Chen Xing tried each of the three different types of soup and porridge.
In recent years, as Daxia has integrated into foreign lands, some of Daxia’s food and customs have also spread.
As Fentian Territory, which is close to Daxia, has received the greatest impact from food culture.
Some people have black hair and black eyes, but they are born with six fingers. Some have rather large frames and grayish skin tones. Some have green hair and green eyes.
Chen Xing used body correction to shrink the beasts and summon them, fed the high-end meat pet rice to the two beasts, then recalled Taotie to the space of the beasts, and left the four phases outside to keep vigil at night.
“15 pieces of spiritual iron.”
After breakfast, the two of them continued their journey in the morning.
The next day, the ground outside was wet and there was a lot of rainwater on the road.
Along the way, Chen Xing saw the scenery of many giant cities and many types of exotic natives.
Back in the room, the camel meat buns taste a bit strange, a bit like beef, but the meat is rougher, but after being steamed for a long time, the rich gravy mixed with the buns, the taste is unexpectedly good.
But generally speaking, they are all human beings.
Think about it, as human settlements built on the wilderness.
Chen Xing found that he couldn’t read all the words on it!
Although he had studied foreign languages before entering the Heritage Tower in high school, he later found time to occasionally study them during class.
It started to rain lightly outside the window.
The door was opened, and the little white snake floating in the air turned into a beam of white light and sank into the wrist of the instructor who was combing his hair in front of the mirror.
Chen Xing walked out of the hotel. There was a bun shop next to the hotel.
Chen Xing fed Si Xiang and Taotie high-end carnivorous pets in the room and then went out to have breakfast.
It rained last night, and the originally hot and scorching weather outside became much cooler.
I originally thought it would be dark cuisine, but after trying it, I can only say that each has different regional flavors.
Walking to the front of the bun shop, there is a menu engraved on the wooden board hanging next to it.
“Sister Ning, I brought you breakfast. The buns taste pretty good.”
On the menu, Chen Xing saw XXX camel meat buns, XX red antsXX, X muttonXX
Chen Xing had his hands behind his back and his eyes were deep.
People in different regions have their own characteristics.
According to his own taste, Chen Xing went downstairs and bought another bag of milk and a camel meat bun.
Overnight, the energy level of the four phases increased by 1.5.
Although I dare not say that I know all the rare characters now, I can still recognize most of the simple characters.
Chen Xing raised his hands.
Sometimes if you are lucky, you can transfer two or three times in a row that day.
The mutton soup has some sour black fruits added to it, and the milk porridge tastes a bit spicy. Chen Xing doesn't like either of these, but the milk in the end tastes pretty good, quite fresh and sweet.
Huge cities and cities are where humans live after night, and they are also the safest places.
There can be chaos outside the wilderness, but if chaos breaks out inside the city, the situation will probably be serious.
Ten days after the departure, Chen Xing stepped out of the teleportation array again.
The air in front of me was filled with a light gray mist.
The sky was overcast, and the pedestrians around were hurried.
Many people wore thick cloaks and masks.
Within the low city wall, there are small flat houses scattered in an orderly manner. From a distance, the gray-white houses look like low tombstones.
“We’ve arrived at the Shadow Territory.” Han Yuning was in high spirits, and Chen Xing’s eyes were filled with fatigue.
“Follow me.” He followed the flow of people out of the Teleportation Array Square and bought two cloaks and masks in a shop outside.
After Chen Xing put it on, he seemed to "integrate into one" with the pedestrians on the street.
Coming out of the shop, Han Yuning whispered: "This is the Tomb City. From here, you can take the teleportation array directly to the Shadow Giant City. There are two trips every day at eight o'clock in the morning and ten o'clock in the evening. We will go directly to the Shadow Giant City later in the evening." city."
Chen Xing glanced at his mentor thoughtfully. It seems that the instructor is very familiar with this place.
I heard from my instructor before that she had formed an exploration team after graduation.
Perhaps I have been here at that time.
Han Yuning glanced at Chen Xing: "The air in the Shadow Territory is filled with gray mist of dark energy all year round. The environment here is very suitable for the survival of dark undead. This gray mist is not harmful to humans, but if it is exposed to it for a long time, it will Bad skin.
The cloak and mask are made of special plants from the body, which have a good blocking effect on gray fog. "
“Sister Ning is indeed knowledgeable.” Chen Xing provided emotional value at the right time.
Han Yuning raised the corner of his mouth slightly and said as he walked around: "Many people say that the locals in the Shadow Territory are very indifferent, but in fact they are not. It's just that the dark energy here is rich, there are many undead creatures, and special customs have made them see each other since they were young. They are used to death, so they are relatively indifferent to life and death, thinking that after death they will return to the realm of death."
Chen Xing nodded thoughtfully.
After eating a barbecue in the evening, the two of them stepped into the teleportation array after taking a rest.
When he came out of the teleportation array, Chen Xing felt that the dark energy in the surrounding air had more than tripled!
The air in front of me is filled with lingering gray fog!
It seemed as if the whole city was in a vast gray sky, and even the sky could only see a gray patch.
Through the vague gray dust, a huge white bone spire reaches into the sky in the center of the city a few miles away.
There are white giant bats hovering on the white spire.
Along the wide avenue leading out of the teleportation array, there are Gothic-like black, white and gray buildings on both sides of the road.
Under the curved street lamp, a pumpkin-like monster was hung on it and emitted an orange-red light.
“Where to go?” Han Yuning looked at Chen Xing. It was Chen Xing who asked her to accompany him to the Shadow Giant City.
Now the great city of shadows has arrived.
“No. 23 Mingluo Street.” Chen Xing remembered the location recorded in the book.
"I seem to have heard of this place name." Han Yuning took Chen Xing around the city.
Along the way, Chen Xing discovered that the beasts summoned by many people along the way were of dark or undead attributes.
Finally, the two stopped in front of a huge stadium-like building that looked like a cemetery.
From a distance, it looks like a row of huge ribs spreading from both sides of the dome to the left and right.
The room was illuminated by a cold green underworld light.
From time to time, you can see people wearing cloaks coming in and out of this building.
Chen Xingma is confused. Isn’t the book recording a dilapidated manor?
Why is the manor gone? How could I sneak in now?
“So you are going to the dark world.”
Standing in front of the door, Han Yuning recognized the building, and then looked at Chen Xing strangely, "You came all the way here just to enter the dark world?"
Chen Xing, “???”
He turned his head and looked at his mentor in shock.
I haven’t told you yet, why did you name the place in one breath?
Seeing Chen Xing's expression, Han Yuning knew that he had guessed correctly.
Han Yuning shook his head, "Although I have never been inside, I have heard of the dangers inside. You can enter the dark world through the passage inside. However, except for some monsters unique to the dark world, there are no resources in the dark world. If you go in, Most people capture creatures from the dark world and use them as beasts.
However, creatures from the dark world have twisted personalities and many bad habits, so they are not the best choice for controlling beasts. "
Chen Xing had a lot to say in his heart at the moment, but he didn't know how to say it.
“Didn’t you say that no one knows about the dark world?” Chen Xing was numb.
Han Yuning nodded with deep understanding, "No one knew about it before, but then someone published a book called The Secret of a Foreign World, so this passage was exposed.
This place used to be much smaller, an abandoned manor.
Later on, there might be too many people entering, so the Shadow City expanded the place and increased the entrance fee to the dark world tenfold. "
Chen Xing was silent. It turns out that I am not the only one who has read this book.
Seeing Chen Xing's expression, Han Yuning felt funny, "That's not an isolated book. If you can see it, others can naturally see it too."
“Do you want to go in and capture monsters? Or do you need materials for certain monsters inside? If you need materials, there are some shops in the Shadow City that specialize in selling body materials for monsters inside.”
Chen Xing calculated the current energy level of Si Xiang. During the ten days of journey, he kept feeding Si Xiang high-grade meat pet food, even more than three meals a day. Whenever he had time, Chen Xing let Si Xiang eat. More than Taotie.
Although this is not the most cost-effective, it causes waste to a certain extent.
But it does make the energy level of the four phases increase by leaps and bounds.
When I left, it was only at energy level 85, and now it is at energy level 99.
There is not much of the high-end meat pet rice left in the storage bracelet.
A fresh, transcendent monster was almost eaten.
“Teacher, let’s go in tomorrow.”
The four-phase energy level is not yet full, but after tonight, it will become its first beast with a full energy level of 100!
“Can you tell me the reason for coming here now?” Han Yuning looked at Chen Xing.
Chen Xing said: "Sister Ning, you should know the origin of the four phases."
Hearing this, Han Yuning's eyes were thoughtful.
She helped arrange it after she obtained the Four Phases.
She naturally knows the origin of the four phases, which is related to the birthplace of the divine object.
"Because the four phases are unique, I have to find a way to evolve on my own. In the past few months, I have been reading ancient books and thought of a route that may be suitable for it. The end point is in the dark world. I need to make it in the dark world. The four phases have completed evolution." Chen Xing looked at his mentor seriously.
Han Yuning’s frown evolved in the dark world? Will there be any danger.
She has heard that some evolutionary rituals require the selection of special locations.
This is the first time I’ve heard of it in the dark world.
"I understand. I will accompany you in tomorrow and help protect the Dharma." Han Yuning said.
The inside of the dark world is not as good as the outside world.
Not to mention the dangerous monsters inside, it can be said that other beast masters are more dangerous than the monsters.
So Han Yuning was going to go in to help protect the law, but before entering the dark world, he needed to find one more person.
