Chapter 76 She Was Right Again
The sporozoite mill is not that big.
Although the city is below the Razor Collar, it is not a shadow city of the Razor Collar. When there are few residents, if the area is too large, it is easy to accumulate a lot of garbage - and it will be very inconvenient to buy things or go out to eat.
And the habit of underground cities is... In the residential areas of the urban layer, the fewer production facilities are arranged, the better.
There are special planting layers and exploration layers below, which are used to produce various raw materials; the transportation and freight in the underground city are extremely convenient, and at the same time, the land is extremely vast and sparsely populated. This has led to a severe shortage of labor.
However, if production facilities are not configured at all, freight subways and merchants will not pass by so diligently, and various commodities and basic materials required will also be out of stock.
Usually, lesser-known smaller cities don't have names of their own.
The same is true of the former "Black Mushroom Mill" and today's "Sporozoite Mill".
It used to be a logging area for "Grey Woods".
Yes, the underground world also has trees - the curse breath overflowing from the planting layer, combined with the light source provided by the light ant sky, can give birth to trees with special properties.
For example, the ashwood forest nicknamed "The Lost Forest" is the same forest that was passed through in the nightmare of the sporozoite mill.
This very twisted and abstract gray tree is actually a precious ritual material. After being cut into pieces and burned, it can be used as the main material for rituals that make people lose their way. It only grows in a few urban layers.
Although not very practical, but very cherished.
And if you can find a relatively straight, fine-textured ash wood, you can fetch a pretty high price. The magic bow made of ash wood as the main material can make the arrows shot with the ability of [phantom shooting].
That is, the "arrow" in the eyes of the enemy deviates from the real arrow position. The faster the rate of fire, the higher the angle the illusion deviates from the subject... Therefore, a skilled hunter can even control the rate of fire to completely confuse the enemy about the true location of the arrow, achieving a near-invisible arrow effect.
And the gray mushrooms that grow on decayed ash wood can also be hallucinogenic. When ground into a powder, it can be made into a colorless and transparent hallucinogenic poison.
"We live in the ash woods."
Nieusser explained to Annan and his party: "You have to hold the leaves of the ash wood as a 'beacon',
to get to the right spot, but I didn't prepare the extra leaves. So you follow closely, don't fall behind; if you fall behind, don't take a step, stand where you are and wait for us to come back; if anyone finds someone behind, remember to remind them as soon as possible.
"It's not a joke to get lost here. Without beacons, and without the ability to locate by smell and perception, it's really hard to get out of here... Because ash wood can create hallucinations and make people feel the difference between things and things. The distance and interval between them produce misjudgments.
"On the same road, if you go to the end and then look back, you may not be able to return to the starting position."
In his hand he held the leaves of the ash wood near his home—the same kind of leaves that the messenger in the nightmare held.
When holding a leaf of a tree in your hand, you can "get lost" directly to the area to which the leaf belongs without resisting the stray effect of ash wood.
- This is also equivalent to some kind of key, or a map for automatic navigation.
"Wait a moment?"
Lin Yiyi was keenly aware of the details: "Do you live together?"
Annan actually noticed this, but he was too embarrassed to ask.
I always feel like I'm lowering myself.
"...Ah, yes."
When the girl asked about this topic, Niusser turned his head a little embarrassedly.
He hesitated and replied: "After all, we have to communicate with each other at any time, so we can only live closer. And she just wants to live in the ash wood, and doesn't want to be disturbed..."
No need to explain, friend. Anyone who understands.
Annan smiled silently.
Nieusser argued again, saying things like "they haven't decided on a relationship yet", "just live together, very pure". But Lin Yiyi's expression became more and more strange.
It's true love. Maybe still a first love.
This pure love... ah, just right.
If there were no outsiders, she might be writhing like a maggot.
The wine was a little curious.
That Nefertari... what would it look like?
The big loyal dog deacon always feels that if the other party is a short and arrogant young lady, it will be very suitable. Or the kind of lady who is petite and frail in a wheelchair is not bad...
The four dark moments are very simple and very serious in walking.
Because he was warned that he might get lost, he followed Annan nervously, not one step behind... He had no idea what the two girls behind him were thinking.
Fortunately, there is no such setting as "dark" in the underground world.
After walking for about an hour, they saw the small western mansion in front of them.
Like the houses in other underground cities, the area is very large - after all, the land is the least valuable thing here, even cheaper than the furniture. How big the house wants to be built only depends on the owner's wishes.
Nieusser did not take out the key.
He just walked to the door and pushed open the unlocked door directly.
"Nefertari!"
He shouted inside, "I brought my guests back!"
"Hey?!"
Nefertari's flustered voice came from inside: "Wait a minute, the house hasn't been cleaned up-"
"What are you packing? It's someone from the Secret Eye. It's not meeting the parents..."
"Go to hell, you idiot!"
The four Annan stood politely at the door and did not follow up immediately.
After a while, Nefertari hurriedly opened the door.
A girl with red hair and burning eyes, wearing a violet robe. A white ribbon hangs from each of the longer sleeves.
She put her hands on her stomach, and the ribbons were folded into a single line, hanging straight to the top of her feet.
Somewhat restrained, he bowed to Annan: "First meeting, Your Excellency Gillandaio.
"It came so suddenly, I have no preparation here... I'm sorry."
"No, the rude is here."
Gillandaio smiled gently: "I came here without asking in advance. It's good that I don't cause you any trouble."
How could there be no trouble—
I'm wearing pajamas at home! How can you just meet anyone!
Nefertari muttered in his heart.
But she dared not say it.
According to the information she found, this hidden eye is probably the ancient Sun Church.
Although Nefertari himself is not extraordinary.
But that doesn't mean she can't fight the superhuman.
Many of the jewelry she carries are curses. Has the role of the school of the prophets and the school of idols. But the checks and detection effects of these spells slipped away silently when facing Gillandaio.
Not that the detection failed, but that it didn't work at all.
It was as if the person in front of him was not a living person... but a stone statue without consciousness and emotion.
But how is this possible?
Her curse was given by her teacher, another gold-rank superhuman.
——There is no doubt that he is not a silver rank at all.
Nefertari thought quickly.
Judging from the fact that there was no impact when the opponent was dismissed, this should not be a god. But the effect of being able to silently slide away the curse on his body is at least a golden-rank superhuman who hides his identity... maybe even a saint!
Yes, purifying the nightmare of the underworld, it does them no good. Maybe even useless.
But if the opponent is this generation's [Justice], [Perseverance], or [Benevolence]... It seems that there is also a motivation to act.
After all, saints can gain strength from corresponding actions.
- like a god.
Thinking of this, Nefertari quickly glanced at Gillandaio's whole body.
As far as she knows, the holy skeleton of [Justice] is the heart, [Perseverance] is the bones from both hands to the forearm, and [Benevolence] is a tongue. As for the obvious positions of the "right arm", "skin", and "eye" of other holy bones, it is even more impossible.
Gillandaio's hands didn't glow, and his tongue didn't seem out of place.
so……
Should he be the holder of the [Justice] Holy Bone?
