Up in the sky.
All of a sudden, countless stars lit up.
Amidst the dusky sky and the torrential rain, Jon and Cecatly stepped onto solid ground.
"Where are we going next? Didn't you say we were going to get rid of that box? "
Jon asked, looking at Cecatly.
Along the way, Cecatly had only shown him her silent side. She did not show any superfluous emotions. The joyful mood she had before they entered was completely gone.
She appeared to have a lot on her mind.
"It won't be difficult to get rid of this thing. We just need to find a more secluded place to hide it. Who knows, the people behind us might think that it is some kind of precious treasure."
Before she could finish her words, she suddenly froze.
Jon was about to ask what happened, but then he stopped as well.
A huge amount of information rushed into his mind. Clearly, it was directly instilled into their minds by the power of the Laws after they set foot on this land.
First, it was a picture.
It should be a map of this continent, but calling it a map wasn't right, because it was just a flat figure. It showed all kinds of strange and different colored light spots. Although he couldn't figure out what they were for, it definitely had its meaning.
Then the ground under their feet and the air around them started to vibrate. There was an inexplicable sound that echoed in the small space within a few meters of them, as if someone was talking to them.
But the overall concept was similar.
The voice was very cold and cruel, as if it was talking to lambs waiting to be slaughtered.
"Get rid of your opponents, and you can become the inheritors of all the ruins and treasures. There are no restrictions, and you cannot withdraw. In this trial, you can either try to survive or die."
Jon was stunned for a moment, but then he quickly reacted. This voice came from Osiris, the current ruler of the illusion.
Obviously, Cecatly had realized this as well.
That was all the voice said, and then it disappeared. It sounded strange, and the content of the words was also strange.
"What do you think?"
Cecatly fell silent for a moment before replying in a soft voice, "If that's all there is to it, then it's too low-level. I suspect that there's more to it that hasn't been revealed yet. Let's deal with the box first."
The two of them quickly found a relatively secluded cave and hid the lead box inside.
By the time they walked out of the cave, the environment outside had changed.
Faintly discernible rays of light descended from the sky, dispersing the dark clouds that shrouded the sky. With their keen intuition, Jon and Cecatly could sense that there was a fluctuation in the distance, spreading in all directions. However, they were unable to pinpoint its exact location.
But that was not the end of the problem.
Not far in front of them, a city that looked like a harbor suddenly appeared.
Or rather, it was a city.
It was not an ancient city like he had imagined. Instead, it was more like a modern metropolis.
"What's going on?"
Looking at the row upon row of skyscrapers, Chown's expression couldn't be described as not interesting.
"Didn't I say that the appearance of the New Era changes according to the changes in the outside world? We have to draw materials from the real world. In any case, our Lord Hades has been preparing for this for so long. He will definitely make something that will surprise us."
"Well, if you can explain it, I can accept it."
In fact, that place was not particularly strange. It was just that it conflicted with what they knew. Besides, outside the city, Jon could even feel the stench of blood in the surrounding air.
It was as if it had been washed by a rain of blood.
Beside them, there was no trace of anyone, nor was there any light. There were only pairs of scarlet eyes that appeared and disappeared in the darkness and shadows like illusions.
"We have to hurry. There are already changes here."
In that environment just now, many people must have been sent to strange places when they entered, so it was not strange for people to appear out of nowhere.
Jon and Cecatly's plan was to hide first.
No matter what, they could not at least show their strength at this time. Otherwise, they would be easily targeted. In the later stages, when they would not have such worries, it would not be too late to talk about this.
But not everyone was as skillful as the two of them.
In the process of moving towards the city, there was an unlucky guy who fell straight from the clouds and hit a sharp mast erected at the city's border, piercing through his heart.
It was quite tragic.
Neither of them said a word. They just quickened their pace and moved forward much faster.
This kind of situation was inevitable. It could only be said that they were unlucky. If it was Jon, they might have been able to fly, but they did not have the strength, so they could not blame others.
These people's information channels were definitely better than Jon's. They could not blame others for not preparing in advance.
So, in this kind of mental activity, Jon and Cecatly arrived at the city.
There was complete silence, but it wasn't completely silent.
Occasionally, there would be the sound of glass shattering. Somewhere, the people in the battle seemed to have taken the wrong medicine. Some of them had bloodshot eyes.
"Don't they even know how to hide?"
Jon muttered and hurriedly enveloped himself and Cecatly with a force field.
"Close your ears and mislead the others …"
Ray after ray of magic shot out silently from his fingertips and scattered around them, protecting the two of them.
The competition had already begun. Moreover, this so-called competition was not a competition.
This was a trial.
His expression was solemn, and Cecatly's expression was not good either.
"I know what they are fighting for," she said. "In these cities, there are many things like treasure chests. These chests contain different resources, items, or weapons. Some of these items are even not much weaker than our Divine Equipment when used here."
This was understandable. After all, the Underworld King was the most powerful here. Everything was transformed from his power, so it was not strange for such items to appear.
However, it was impossible to bring these things out.
"Do you think everyone will die here?"
"No, the rules say so. But many people come from big families. The people behind them will not let them die."
