Chapter 401 The Secret of Sky City
There are only two situations where you can’t enter the inheritance enchantment. The first is that you don’t carry enough map fragments. In this regard, Lin Xue definitely met the requirements.
Second, like Mu You, who has already served as the city lord or position of other sky cities, will make it impossible to work in other sky cities.
Because of knowing this rule, before they entered the door this morning, Mu You asked Lin Xue and Xiaoya to resign as deputy city lords of Liming City. Now Lin Xue is completely free. Both conditions are met, but you still can't get in, which is a bit outrageous.
"Roar!"
The werewolves around were still madly attacking Muyou.
After discovering that the red-scythe girl failed to enter the barrier, the tyrant and the white youth in the distance were keenly aware of a turning point: since the red-scythe girl could not enter the barrier, the other party would definitely replace the castellan, so the fragments would inevitably need to be handed over , then just cut off their handover path...
The tyrant immediately ordered the team to charge at full speed and surround the other people present first. Compared with the ghost captain and the red sickle girl, it is obviously easier to deal with the other people.
Mu You dodged to avoid the claws of a werewolf, seeing the formation change of the wolves, he also knew that there was no time to study it carefully.
Although all nine fragments have fallen into their hands, anything can happen before the final dust settles.
Mu You continued to procrastinate for a while amidst the werewolf siege, and when the 'Super Speed' cooled down, he immediately activated the Super Speed, and his whole body turned into an afterimage and disappeared in place.
When he reappeared, he had already appeared beside Lin Xue beside the barrier, and stretched out his hand toward the barrier.
As expected, he was also bounced away by the barrier.
"Then change to Xiaoya." Mu You looked at Lin Xue and said.
"Okay." Lin Xue nodded.
This is also the situation they discussed before. In case something happens to Lin Xue during the battle for the city and she can't win the city lord in time, let Xiaoya take the city lord.
At this time, Xiaoya, Lin Hai, and other members of the Mystic Arts Association were already surrounded by hundreds of werewolves in the distance.
Mu You directly activated the refresh badge, refreshed the cooldown of all magic, and then used 'Transformation' again to exchange positions with Xiaoya in the distant pack of wolves.
Light and shadow flashed, and Mu You appeared in the circle surrounded by wolves. After roughly scanning the surrounding situation, he opened the backpack, released the lion and maiden inside, and called out the shadow ghost at the same time.
At this time, the group of werewolves led by the tyrant had rushed to help, and more than 200 werewolves at the scene blocked all their escape routes.
Fortunately, Mu You and Ying Gui joined in strongly, which greatly relieved the defensive pressure of several people.
Especially the shadow ghost, who roared loudly after appearing, and slapped his claws again and again. Werewolves were constantly being thrown away by it. With his own strength, he cleared a safe space for everyone behind him.
"Boss... Damn, why are you surrounded again..."
When the lion appeared, he saw densely packed werewolves. He felt his scalp tingle immediately, but his hands were still not slow. Two fire magic spells were cast out quickly, blasting away the two werewolves jumping over his head.
"Boss, where is the progress now?" The lion turned around and asked after the attack.
"The last step... hold on, it's over soon..." Mu You had switched to a robot skin at this time, and while shooting around with two shotguns, he took the time to look at the barrier.
At the other end, Xiaoya and Lin Xue had already met.
Xiaoya was still in a hurry to direct her row of summoned beasts, but suddenly felt the light and shadow in front of her change, and when she opened her eyes again, she had already appeared beside Lin Xue.
"Huh? Sister Xue, this is..."
Xiaoya looked around in a daze, and didn't come to her senses for a moment.
The next second, Lin Xue stuffed a handful of map fragments into her hand.
"Xiaoya, go get the city lord!"
"Huh? Shall I take it?" Xiaoya was taken aback, instinctively wanting to ask something else.
Beside Lin Xue suddenly pushed her back, pushing her directly into the barrier, and then summoned the phantom of death again.
Because of the front, the more than twenty werewolves had surrounded her again.
The werewolves were also unlucky. Seeing a handful of map fragments being handed over in front of them, they all rushed here red-eyed to stop them.
Unexpectedly, as soon as he rushed to the front, he ran into the **** of death head-on. Reaper raised his huge arm and slapped all the werewolves around him.
After finishing all this, Lin Xue suddenly bent down and coughed up a mouthful of blood.
The continuous summoning of the **** of death to fight fiercely before burned a lot of her attributes, and also caused a considerable burden on her body. She knew that the **** of death this time would definitely not last long.
Fortunately, Xiaoya has already entered the barrier with the fragments, and it doesn't make any sense for werewolves to surround her next.
Sure enough, when the werewolves found out that the fragments had been brought into the barrier, they were all annoyed. They couldn't move the people in the barrier, so they could only point their fingers at another person who still held the fragments, Captain Ghost.
A group of werewolves rushed towards Muyou like moths to a flame. This was their last hope, although this last hope was already too dim to be seen...
And Mu You's next move made the werewolves completely desperate in an instant—he sank directly into the shadows...
Watching Captain Ghost disappear into the shadows with his own eyes, a group of werewolves who had just rushed forward were completely dumbfounded, drawing their swords and looking around in a daze.
The targets are gone, what else are they going to fight?
Some werewolves subconsciously wanted to attack other people present.
As a result, a thick voice came from behind.
"Stop it all, it's over..."
In the distance, the tyrant had already walked slowly with a few confidantes, and gave this order to the wolves in a calm tone as much as possible.
When the red sickle girl failed to enter the barrier just now, he did have a glimmer of hope.
As a result, this hope was dashed in the blink of an eye.
The opponent obviously had a backup candidate, and they only used a simple transposition magic to easily crack their partition tactics. Afterwards, there was no **** incident like infighting because of the city lord, and the fragment handover was completed very quickly and decisively. .
At this point, everything has actually been settled. Even if they continue to work hard, it is just wishful thinking.
After speaking, the tyrant looked up and looked inside the barrier.
After a while of lament and pity, all the werewolves followed the tyrant's gaze.
In the enchantment, Xiaoya has already run over a hundred steps and walked to the front of the altar.
Looking at the inheritance crystallization close in front of her eyes, Xiaoya swallowed her saliva, and subconsciously turned her head to look outside again.
At this time, all the fighting outside has stopped, and everyone's eyes are on her, with expectations, unwillingness, envy, and urging...
Under the attention of many pairs of eyes, Xiaoya exhaled, reached out and touched the crystal surface...
A few seconds later, all online players in the Astral World and Earth received a message.
【City of Eternal Night, successfully activated! 】
【The first city lord: Qingya Shuxiang. 】
【All fools can apply to join the City of Eternal Night, the current upper limit of residents: 10 million. 】
Less than a minute after the news appeared, the Fool's forum suddenly boiled.
"What's the situation? The Lord of Eternal Night City is not a tyrant?"
This is the most frequently mentioned question in various posts.
Because all the information they obtained before indicated that Scarlet Dawn had already won the battle for the City of Eternal Night.
The tyrant's acquisition of the city lord of Eternal Night City seems to many people to be a certainty.
As a result, this kind of thing that has been generally recognized has actually happened unexpectedly...
"Elegant and elegant? Who is this?"
"I don't know, I've never heard of it..."
"I beg you to popularize science, who is this hidden master..."
"Chinese character ID...Could it be another Celestial Dynasty player?"
"No way…"
"Very likely, there are too many sky cities in the Celestial Dynasty, and this is the sixth one..."
…
In the international section, the first thing that many foreign netizens pay attention to is not the identity of the city owner, but the state ownership of Sky City: it's actually the celestial dynasty!
The Celestial Dynasty had already owned five sky cities before, and now there is another one...
In this way, there are a total of twelve sky cities, half of which have fallen into the realm of the Celestial Dynasty!
Foreign netizens no longer know what adjectives to use to describe this matter.
At least in the matter of competing for the Sky City, China has shown superb competitiveness, and in a sense, it actually reflects the strength of the player group of China, which has already crushed other countries in the world.
In international forums, various fairness fighters reappeared as expected, sparking various public opinion wars, and the commonplace issue about the distribution of residents in Sky City surfaced again.
However, with the experience of previous debates, the vast majority of domestic players have gotten used to it this time. Except for a very small number of Internet chatterers who can’t sit still and go to international forums to fight with scholars, most domestic players have no idea at all. Talk to them, no matter how intense your discussions are, can it affect our city lord's decision of a dime?
At this moment, domestic players are hotly discussing another question: Who is this 'elegant and graceful'?
Xiaoya used the ID of the substitute card when she became the city lord, and she just got the substitute card not long ago, and she rarely shows up in front of people, so to most people, this is a completely unknown character.
However, no matter how low-key a character is, he can't stand the flesh of the whole people.
Soon someone picked up information about the 'Qing Ya Shu Xiang'.
The source of the information comes from an ordinary resident of Dawn City. According to him: Qingya Shuxiang has appeared in the announcement of the dungeon in Dawn City before, and this announcement is the announcement of teaming up with the "Ghost Captain" to download the dungeon...
Captain Ghost!
As soon as the name came out, many people suddenly understood.
After a long time, this is a relative or friend of Captain Ghost?
In this way, many things that confused them before have an explanation: No wonder the tyrant of the Scarlet Dawn failed to get the Lord of Eternal Night, it turned out that he ran into Captain Ghost!
As the city lord of Dawn, the captain of the ghost cannot be another city lord, so it is reasonable to give up the city lord to the people around him after taking the city.
The only thing that puzzled some careful netizens was: Since it was Captain Ghost’s forces that took down Eternal Night City, why didn’t the city owner be given to the Red Scythe girl?
The red sickle girl and the ghost captain often appear in a bond. This is well known. Many people speculate that they are lovers or relatives. In short, they must be a very strong relationship.
In addition, the red sickle girl herself has super strength, and was once considered by many people to be the second best player in the world after Captain Ghost.
No matter in terms of status or contribution, after Captain Ghost took down the city lord, no matter how you look at it, it should be the most appropriate arrangement for the red sickle girl. In the end, the city lord fell on another woman...
For a while, all kinds of gossip speculations were flying in the sky, such as 'love triangle', 'infighting', 'conspiracy theory' and other inconspicuous speculations came out.
These discussions on the forum, Mu You and others are not aware of these discussions at the moment.
After taking down the city lord, under the guidance of Mu You, Xiaoya slowly manipulated Eternal Night City to be born.
The place where Eternal Night City was born was not Undercity, but a plain above the surface of Undercity.
Following the shaking of Eternal Night City, all objects had a mirror flip, and Mu You knew that they had returned to the Astral Realm.
At this time, it was actually only six o'clock in the afternoon, and the sky outside was very bright on the plain, but inside Eternal Night City, it was still pitch black.
Because the entire Eternal Night City is surrounded by a layer of 'Eternal Night Barrier', from the outside, it looks like an extremely huge pitch-black ball floating in mid-air.
"Wuhu! It's another city, so it's not a waste of time!" Seeing all the dust settle, the lion laughed loudly.
Although the current city lord is not a member of the Mystic Association, at least it is enough to be sure that he is one of his own.
Others also breathed a sigh of relief, taking advantage of the opportunity of the offline meeting, they got together and chatted, and the atmosphere was harmonious.
Unlike their relaxed and cheerful side, the werewolves on the other side looked at this scene with complicated eyes. As the losers in this competition, some werewolves wanted to smile to liven up the atmosphere, but found that they couldn't laugh at all. They gambled almost everything in this battle, but they lost completely in the end.
The white youth gave a wry smile at this moment: "Sure enough, the emperor's suggestion was correct..."
"What advice?" asked the Tyrant.
At this moment, everything was settled, and the white youth did not hide any more, and told the inside story of his previous exchange with the emperor.
"I see..." The tyrant felt a little comforted after hearing this.
Looking back at the beginning and end of this competition, they seem to be suppressed by each other throughout. Instead of looking for reasons to say about the lack of intelligence and mistakes in decision-making, it is better to simply admit that they were actually crushed in terms of strength...
At this moment, hearing that even the god-given monarch had experienced the same despair as them, the tyrant felt a rare sense of balance.
However, what the tyrant didn't know was that the situation faced by the emperor and others was actually much better than them. At least until Mu You got the Octopus King's heart, the divine grant of monarchy was the stronger side in terms of frontal combat power. It was not until the final stage that Mu You got the help of the Octopus King that he took the initiative.
As for this competition with Scarlet Dawn, Mu You took the initiative from the beginning to the end, which is why the tyrant and others felt suppressed throughout.
"President!"
A familiar shout sounded from another direction.
Everyone looked back, and saw a giant red wolf running towards this side quickly.
After rushing to the front and back, he stood upright and turned into a human form.
It was the werewolf boy who had been separated from them before.
"President, is this... over?" The young man was out of breath, but couldn't wait to ask.
"It's over, we lost..." the tyrant said helplessly.
"ah…"
The boy's eyes turned red when he heard the words, and an extreme unwillingness gushed out of his heart. However, seeing that everyone looked frustrated, and knowing that they must have experienced the scene in person, they must have felt even worse, so he forced a dry smile and said, "It's okay, isn't it just a city? There are so many good things, without the Sky City, let's find other opportunities!"
"Thanks for your hard work, Xiaowu, you performed very well this time, and I will arrange to compensate you when you go back." The tyrant patted him on the shoulder, looked back at a group of mourning werewolves behind him, and said angrily: "Look at all of you!" What does a dejected one look like? Not as good as a child! Leave me with your head held high, don't let outsiders see the joke!"
A group of werewolves regained some energy and looked at each other. They all slowly raised their heads and let out howls.
After some venting howls, the werewolves regained their vitality as if they had been injected with chicken blood. The tyrant nodded and gestured: "Go, go home."
A group of werewolves quickly assembled their team, and they were about to leave Sky City following the tyrant.
However, before they could take a few steps, a familiar voice suddenly came from behind.
"Oh, wait a minute..."
This voice made everyone tremble subconsciously, especially the werewolf boy, his heart skipped a beat, and his legs almost fell to the ground.
When he came back to his senses, the werewolf boy quickly turned around, passed over the pack of wolves, looked at Mu You who appeared behind him, pointed at him and said with grief and indignation, "What do you want to do?"
The other werewolves also frowned and looked at Mu You. Now that the competition for Sky City is over, the other party is the winner, so why do they want to continue to make trouble for them?
"Hehe, don't get me wrong, I'm not looking for you this time."
Mu You looked at the young man and smiled, then looked at the white young man not far away: "I'm looking for him."
"Looking for me?" The white youth was also taken aback when he heard the words: "What?"
"Leave now? Do you want to... discuss a few rounds before leaving?" Mu You asked in a deliberative tone.
"Discussion?" A group of werewolves looked at each other, completely puzzled by this request.
The white youth touched his chin when he heard the words, but quickly realized: "Is it because of the skin?"
"Smart!" Mu You gave a thumbs up: "It seems easy to guess."
Before, he killed the werewolf boy ten times in a row, and then he appeared directly as the skin of the boiling blood wolf. At the same time, the skin of the werewolf boy was not lost.
Together with these situations, it is actually not difficult to think that he can obtain advanced skins by killing others.
The white youth nodded and said, "Yes, but you shouldn't need my skin urgently, right?"
"There is no rush."
"Why don't you wait? At least let me get rid of the stolen curse first." The white young man smiled and said, "Let's add a friend, and we will make an appointment to discuss this matter later."
"Okay." Mu You readily agreed.
The other party has no real loss in this kind of thing, so naturally he won't mind letting him brush a set of skins. Of course, this kind of swiping will definitely involve the issue of remuneration, and it is impossible for others to cooperate with you in swiping for nothing.
After watching the werewolves leave, Mu You went back to the castle.
At this moment, Xiaoya is already operating the book of the city master, doing some initial construction and adding residents, and Lin Xue is helping.
Mu You didn't disturb them, but set up a teleportation array on the spot and teleported back to Dawn City.
Now that Eternal Night City has been successfully born, for other players, there is only one more city to choose from. But for Mu You, there is a more important matter - the mysterious space under the seventh floor of the dungeon can now be entered!
Back to Dawn City, Mu You teleported directly to the entrance of the dungeon, and exchanged a little reputation for the entrance ticket.
Then he entered it alone, appeared on the seventh floor, and came all the way to the killing beehive area.
The killer bee queen has not yet been resurrected, but a batch of young eggs in the hive have hatched, and the killer bees in the area are much denser than when they left last time.
Mu You put on the crown of the queen bee, walked to the mountain wall, opened the light film protecting the hive with the authority of the city lord, and stepped into the hive alone.
Under the protection of the crown, the dense killer bees in the nest shy away from him.
Mu You walked to the deepest part of the hive with ease, and found the closed door on the stone wall full of hives.
Sure enough, after all twelve sky cities were activated, the door was already open.
Mu You pushed the door open without hesitation.
To his surprise, after entering the door, the opposite of the door was not a room, but a small, confined space similar to an 'elevator'.
As Mu You stepped into it, the door of the 'elevator' closed instantly, and then the entire space began to fall at the speed of free fall.
Mu You frowned, but he didn't do anything unnecessary, just waited quietly.
After falling for about half a minute, the speed of sinking gradually slowed down until it stopped completely.
"Wow—"
The 'elevator' door in front of you opened again.
Mu You stepped out of it, and what appeared in front of him was a huge and pitch-black space with a height of at least a hundred meters and an inestimable length and width. When he looked around, he couldn't see the sides at a glance.
【You have entered, City of Dawn—Power Room! 】
The moment he stepped out of the 'elevator', this reminder appeared in Mu You's mind.
"Power room? This place is actually a power room?"
Mu You was stunned for a moment, and then a huge curiosity immediately arose.
He also wants to know, what kind of power source is needed to make something as huge as Sky City float in the air for a long time and be able to travel in the sky at will?
With this question in mind, Mu You stepped out of the elevator and walked towards the depths of this space.
Just a few steps away, Mu You suddenly looked up at the sky.
He vaguely felt that there seemed to be something above his head that was making a slight movement.
Mu You subconsciously condensed a 'lighting technique' in his hand, and shot it towards the sky.
The light pierces the darkness below and reveals what exists above.
But what he saw shocked Mu You instantly.
What appeared above his head was a huge humanoid remains, at least 30 to 40 meters high, with his eyes closed, his hands raised horizontally, wearing a layer of white clothing, and a pair of wide wings extending from his back, just floating like that in mid-air.
In addition, countless transparent tubes stretched out around the giant, connecting them to the ceiling of this space.
Mu You was already speechless in surprise.
Giants, Wings... Protoss?
Under the sky city, there is actually a complete remains of a god!
The source of power that Sky City can float in the air is actually the **** corpse?
