Chapter 1070 Eight. "The Sunken Land" (eight)

  8. End

  The exit of the monster jungle leads to the human camp outside Midnight City. When Lu Li walked out of the limestone arched fog door and met Ole Lorenzo who had arrived earlier, he was happy for the exorcist to restore his memory, and led Lu Li to introduce the camp at his feet and the fourth level: four camps standing on the surface of Midnight City The four directions outside correspond to four of the five alchemy towers. They need to advance from the outskirts to recapture the Alchemy Tower until Midnight City is recaptured. The huge map hanging in the most lively mission hall of the camp represents the progress at this time: the **** farm on the outskirts of Midnight City is still advancing - they first need to remove the filthy barns scattered in the wheat fields, and then solve the four occupied farm estates. The farmer, one of the lords, entered Midnight City and successively eliminated the three lords who guarded the Viscount. After the Viscount was resolved, the Southern Alchemy Tower would return to human beings. Ole Lorenzo wanted to continue teaming up with Lu Li, but Lu Li, who had already received the cursed title, declined him and rented a tent in the tent area.

Lu Li contacted the Vice-President Chris, who had disappeared from his memory, and asked why those recovered memories had become very distant—for example, Vice-President Chris, they had only met a few days ago, but in their memory it seemed to be very long time ago. Soon after, the vice president Chris replied to him: [Dear, do you know that the longer the wine is left, the more fragrant it will taste? Stories bring memories, and time makes them sprout. Wait patiently, as in the darkness before dawn waiting for the morning light that pierces the sky. 】

   In the next two days, Lu Li did not step out of the tent again, and more and more players came out of the fog gate to make the camp more lively. Ole Lorenzo would still visit Lu Li often at first, but after confirming that the exorcist really didn't want to leave, he had to move on under the impetus of his family. The last time he came was in the afternoon of the next day, and Margaret, Lu Li's former companion, also appeared. She was badly injured and lost half of her face - it's scarier than that Keanuette and they all died in the first three levels, and it's sad that Margaret doesn't even remember why they died. After Margaret's injury stopped worsening, she said goodbye to Lu Li with a face that was half beautiful and half terrifying, and the tired Ole Lorenzo quickly left.

   Soon after, the camp players found Lu Li, hoping that Lu Li could bring businessmen, because they needed medicine and any supplies. When the cheering people followed the businessman away, Lu Li heard the uncontrollable moaning of pain in the tent next door. He put down the book he had read halfway through and went into the tent to rescue the poor man with rotten legs. When the exorcist realized this There were more players in the camp who were being tortured, and he called them to the square and unleashed the power of the Tree Whisperer to heal them all. Claire also arrived at this time. Lu Li stared at the injured people who were slightly drunk and immersed in the dim light, and asked her, "Will the dead players really be resurrected?" Claire replied, "You will know the answer, I can only say... They are only temporary. Fell asleep."

  Chris said that she needed to be ranked, but Lu Li didn't refuse, and was led by Claire to the manor that restored peace - she knew a tunnel leading directly to Midnight City Castle. At this time, the evil parchment appeared after a long absence, and Lu Li opened the wine barrel where the foul-smelling plasma was stored, got a bouquet of flowers and copper plates, and instructed Lu Li to take out the gold coins of Emperor Goodmelin in the safe behind the mural. After doing this, Lu Li and Claire got into the cellar and went straight to the manor where the Viscount was.

  The castle guarded by the lord lies dormant in the darkness of the ground, surrounded by the lord's manor and garden. The alienation potion that Claire brought turned the exorcist into a black cat that had been transformed, and Claire became an iris, leaving the firewood room where the tunnel was located and approaching the castle separately. Lu Li ran into some troubles - the head maid of one of the lords found him, but the weird, thin body wrapped in the same bandages as Claire didn't hurt Lu Li, but instead recognized Lu Li as Remi, a pet and a human when he was still a human. family. When Lu Li was left at the manor by the head maid, Claire returned with bad news that they couldn't sneak into the castle, so they had to find another way.

  According to Claire's plan, Lu Li provoked a fight between the lord maid and the lord gardener. In the end, the gardener died and the maid was imprisoned in the castle dungeon. When Claire went to the castle to inquire about the news, the evil parchment bewitched Lu Li to use the gold coin to open the gardener's treasure chest and get the eyeballs that could see the truth. When Lu Li, who was not waiting for Claire's return, found that the other players were approaching the manor, he sneaked into the castle to find Claire and deal with the head chef together. But the last lord farmer was wiped out by the rushing players.

   Next, they should have hurry up to go to the hall, where the viscount was, but Claire took Luli through every part of the castle, except the hall. She let the sound of fighting ring out around her, then gradually moved away, and then whispered to Lu Li: "Remember everything here... We deviate from the road for no reason... Then you can only rely on your own wisdom.". Lu Li realized that something happened quietly, like a dream, like a change in a story. Then, a whimper came from the depths of the castle, and Claire expressed the sadness of losing a loved one, and no longer led Lu Li to detour.

   When they arrived at the hall, the Viscount had already died on the high throne. When the head maid who got out of trouble jumped beside the Viscount, the evil parchment whispered quietly, letting Lu Li take out the eyeball—the exorcist who touched the eyeball saw the truth—Claire, who was curled up in the depths of the head maid's soul. At this time, Claire next to him raised Lu Li's arm holding the psychic gun, and Claire next to the throne pulled the trigger for him. "You have to be ruthless..." she said, and the smoke ended the story.

  Lu Li retrieved the quaint stone seal on the throne, walked out of the castle, walked out of the manor, and came to the street. Everyone he had ever seen stood on both sides of the road. Claire disappeared from his side at an unknown time, standing between them, saying goodbye to Lu Li. He arrived at the circular square in front of the city gate. The depression on the standing black minaret was waiting for the quaint stone seal on Lu Li's hand.

   "You redeemed us... Now, it's our turn. You deserve it, you deserve your life. Not like a marionette doing the right thing..."

   "There are too many gods, so I prefer people." Chris, the tall and beautiful vice president in front of him, whispered softly.

   They let the exorcist go, but the parchment appears at this time, revealing the ultimate purpose of all its evil: to let Lu Li put the stone seal in the minaret to restore the alchemy tower. "Trust Will," it said, like it had helped Lu Li every time before. But I always believed that his Lu Li did not do the same this time, but walked out of the city gate. When the exorcist stepped through the shadows of the gates, and the dark city of Midnight dissipated silently, away with the roar of Will Ken, it would never know why it failed - those taken by the city of Midnight, wiped away The memory itself returned after the dust.
