Under the spur of the long whip in Ning Ke's hand, the horse ran extraordinarily hard, and it had already rushed outside the county seat of Chaosheng County before it got dark.

The closer he got to the county seat, the more he frowned and never let go.

The fog filled the air.

The humidity in the air here is really too heavy.

The mist condenses and floats in the air, and when it touches the hair, it becomes wet.

If he stayed here for a long time wearing a leather coat, he might be able to catch water.

Coupled with the hot weather today, this place is like a huge steamer.

Ning Ke's qi and blood roared and circulated in his body, the temperature of his body rose rapidly, and the moisture evaporated in an instant and became dry, forming a vacuum layer without fog around him.

The city gate was wide open, and there was no one guarding it. He led the horse and walked on the streets of Chaosheng County. Seeing that there was no one around, he couldn't help feeling a little suspicious.

No matter how relaxed the guards are, they won't reach this level, right?

Moreover, Ning Ke has already reached the state of Zanggang, and his perception of Qi and blood is already quite subtle.

Along the way, he didn't feel any fluctuations in Qi and blood.

In other words, if there is no one in the houses on both sides of the street, or there are only dead people!

No matter what kind of result it is, he can't understand it.

After thinking about it again and again, he didn't just find a place to live, but directly followed the signs on the street and walked towards the county government here.

.....

The county government of Chaosheng County, like Hongyin County, is located in the prosperous east of the city.

But it was not yet dark at this time, and it was the time when the county was bustling, but it was extraordinarily quiet.

When Ning Ke arrived at the gate of the county government office, seeing that the gate of the county government office was closed and unattended, the doubts in his heart gradually deepened, and he was faintly more vigilant.

Not a single one, which is not normal at all!

He looked around, his eyes suddenly brightened, and he stepped out and took off the lanterns at the entrance of the county government office. Seeing that one of them had been extinguished and there was still a lot of lamp oil left, he felt a little more clear in his heart.

This county government office, and even the entire county town, should have been invaded by weirdness.

Under normal circumstances, the gate of the county government would be open during the day, and the time when problems occurred should be at night.

But the gate at the gate of the county seat should be closed under normal circumstances.

When the accident occurs, it should be in the evening, when the city gate is about to close,

Ning Ke held the lantern in his hand and thought of it in his heart.

The lantern hanging on the gate of the county government office is not an ordinary object, but a kind of deceptive lantern.

As the name suggests, the paradoxical lantern was made by a peculiar heretical method, which he had seen recorded in the previous Demon Slaying Commander's card.

When the lantern burns, the light remains the same, but once the surroundings suffer from strange erosion, the lantern will show different changes.

The most basic one, just like this lantern, once a strange force passes by, the lantern will go out.

But now the lantern had already been extinguished before its oil was dry, naturally it was just as he judged.

The important areas of the county government are unguarded, and the severity of the problem can be seen in general.

After thinking about it for a while, he still didn't break open the gate of the county government directly, but turned into the county government to open the gate of the county government.

Taking off the other paradoxical lantern, Ning Ke led the horse into the county government office.

Seeing that the place was empty, Ning Ke **** the horse, and immediately started looking around.

Half an hour later, it was already night, and the sky was completely dark.

Ning Ke walked out of the last room with a sullen face. He was carrying the already lit lantern and a county seal hanging on his waist. His heart was filled with dread and vigilance.

Yes, there was no one in the entire county office, and even the county magistrate's official seal, which normally had the effect of shelter, did not play any role.

After hesitating again and again, he still passed the news to the Monster Slaying Commander's card.

"Ten days ago, Chaosheng County reported the strange incident of Hongsha, and now Ning Ke has taken over the task of asking for help and has arrived in Chaosheng County.

According to the survey, there is no one in the Chaosheng county government office, the county magistrate's seal is still there, and the paradoxical lantern is extinguished, which seems to have been corrupted by strange things.

Chaosheng County is suspected to be... an empty city! "

After uploading the situation, Ning Ke got up on the roof and looked at the dead and silent county town. He instinctively felt depressed, and he already had the intention to quit.

The population of a county should be at least 2,000 households.

Who would have imagined that a huge county would become like this in just ten days.

And just when he was about to turn over and leave the county, he suddenly stopped.

In his perception, the rising energy and blood of his horse suddenly disappeared!

He can't feel wrong, after all, the horses raised by the demon slayer are full of blood, and the total blood energy can be compared with that of warriors in the blood realm. How could he not notice the sudden disappearance of such powerful blood.

Has the strange force that caused the empty city in Chaosheng County already appeared?

Ning Ke tried his best to restrain his breath, and groped towards the courtyard where he had tied his horse before.

And when he arrived, he raised his eyes and looked up, which made his expression stagnate.

There are no shadows of horses here, not even bones.

And at this moment ~lightnovelpub.net~ the flame of the paradoxical lantern in his hand had already started to dance. Seeing this, Ning Ke felt that danger was coming from somewhere, so he put away the lantern, turned around and ran away.

He tensed his body, only feeling that the danger was always with him, and he stopped hesitating immediately, his energy and blood circulated loudly, and he fled towards the outside of the city like an arrow leaving the string.

But at this moment, there was a loud noise in his ears.

He followed the sound and found figures running through the street.

They shouted and hawked, and all kinds of voices came from it.

Before Ning Ke could react, he felt that the moisture around him was getting thicker and thicker. The faces he saw and the voices he heard gradually became clearer.

Something is wrong!

He was extremely vigilant in his heart, his whole body was surging with qi and blood, and the scope of the vacuum expanded in an instant, and around his body, under the circulation of the iron refining qi, it protected it airtight.

He roared and slashed out with a long knife, and the light that he had accumulated for a long time was like lightning, like cutting a curtain, all the sounds and sights had disappeared in his eyes.

Looking at the sophistry lamp in his hand, it has already been extinguished.

Ning Ke was extremely vigilant in his heart, and immediately put it into the storage ring, his body's energy and blood circulated loudly, the bricks and tiles shattered, and he rushed out of the city.

He ran for several miles in one breath, and only after he ran out of the range of the fog did he feel that his sense of crisis had weakened a lot.

Knowing that he was not capable of defeating the enemy here, he took out the Demon Slaying Commander card again and recorded:

"Supplement to the incident in Chaosheng County: There is moisture and fog around Chaosheng County. Within this range, they will be drawn by inexplicable phantoms. It is suspected that the people of the original Chaosheng County have combined with their phantoms..."
