Sky Water City was a medium-sized town located to the west of White Tiger City. It was not too big, but it was not too small either.
Tianshui City was very unique. It was a city built on water. When Chu Rui and his party arrived, they were shocked. This city was a work of God. It was similar to Venice in the real world. However, it was much more luxurious, spectacular, prosperous, Abstruse And Mysterious, and beautiful.
Although it was a town next to White Tiger City, there were still many players here. The scenery here was very unique. It was the best place for those who didn't like fighting and killing and came here to relax or to work in the field of photography.
Even though they had a quest, Chu Rui and his party could not help but play around in Sky Water City for a while before returning to the right path.
After renting a boat, Chu Rui and his party went to the center of Sky Water City under the guidance of an NPC boatman.
After getting ashore, Chu Rui asked everyone to wait outside while he went to Sky Water City's City Lord's Mansion alone.
"Halt! Who dares to trespass into the City Lord's Mansion?"
As expected, Chu Rui was stopped.
"Gentlemen, I have an urgent matter to discuss with the City Lord. Please inform him!"
Chu Rui was naturally not one of those arrogant and despotic rich second generations. He had always been polite to NPCs. He immediately revealed his badge and his identity as a High Demon Hunter with a cultured and refined smile. Although the first stage of the "Tragedy of Atlantis" quest was the City Lord of Sky Water City, and the mysterious scroll would naturally be welcomed. However, it was not as shocking as Chu Rui's identity. The battle between the Blue Dragon City and the Baleful Yin Demon Monarch must have spread throughout Sky Fate Continent. As a subject of the Divine Dragon Dynasty, it was impossible for the City Lord of Sky Water City to not know. If it had not been the Blue Dragon who had killed the Demonic Dark Lord, and if it had been Chu Rui who had done so, he would have been a top-notch official by now. Moreover, he would have been able to command 100,000 troops. Even if he could not be considered to have absolute authority over the court, he would definitely be an important official among important officials.
"This … Lord High Demon Hunter, please forgive this humble one for being blind!" Seeing Chu Rui's identity, the two guards were shocked on the spot. They looked at Chu Rui with a fanatical expression. At the same time, they were very ashamed of their previous tone.
"The two of you are just doing your duty. Please help me inform the City Lord." Chu Rui smiled and said in a gentle tone.
"Yes, yes. Sir, please wait." The guard on the left said respectfully and then rushed into the City Lord's Mansion.
Not long after, a middle-aged man who looked like a scholar followed the guard out.
"This must be the young hero who has been protecting Blue Dragon City all by himself recently?" The City Lord of Tianshui City looked at Chu Rui and revealed a faint and elegant smile. This person had fair skin, even a little sickly white. He looked weak and delicate. At first glance, one could tell that he was a pale-faced scholar who did not have the strength to truss a chicken. However, that was the case on the surface. In fact … Chu Rui smiled mysteriously.
"I don't dare, I'm just trying my best!" Rui hated these formalities, but he had no choice but to do it. After all, the other party was the City Lord of a city. Moreover, the next mission would depend on him.
"I came here this time because I have a matter to eliminate the City Lord." Chu Rui cupped his hands and said.
"My surname is Chen, and I'm a few years older than you. If you don't mind, you can call me Brother Chen. If you have something to say, come in and discuss it in detail. "
Chu Rui naturally agreed to such an invitation.
"Actually, I came here this time for this." After entering the door and being asked to sit down, Chu Rui did not waste any time and went straight to the point.
"This is?" The City Lord of Tianshui City took the mysterious scroll that Chu Rui handed over.
Unfolding it slightly and looking at the map and marked location on it, the City Lord of Tianshui City was shocked. He stood up directly from his chair as if there was a spring under his buttocks. Although he didn't know if this guy had reached the level of being indifferent to honor and disgrace, but looking at his calm appearance before, his face changed drastically at this moment. He knew how much shock this thing had to him.
"This, where did you come from?" The City Lord of Tianshui City looked at Chu Rui in shock.
"I got it by chance. I killed a demonic creature in a mine that was invaded by a demonic creature and found it on its body. Today, I took a peek at it and came to ask Brother Chen. "Chu Rui smiled.
"Do you know where this place is marked?" The City Lord of Tianshui City looked at Chu Rui and asked.
"Of course, Atlantis City!" Chu Rui nodded.
"Do you know about Atlantis?" The City Lord of Tianshui City focused his gaze.
"I don't know much about it. I just know the name. I don't even know if it exists. But looking at this scroll now, it should have existed. "Chu Rui shook his head and smiled.
"Atlantis is a city, a kingdom, and a civilization." The City Lord of Tianshui City's tone was a little low, and his expression seemed to be reminiscing about something.
"Tens of thousands of years ago, when Atlantis was still standing on this continent, the civilization was highly developed, the faith was unified, the people were kind, rich, and healthy, and it was a paradise that everyone yearned for. However, at the peak of prosperity, there will be a decline. After reaching an extremely high level, Atlantis finally went into decline. The source of all this was the current emperor. With the efforts of generations of emperors, Atlantis had become the richest, most stable, and most peaceful city in the world, and the most peaceful kingdom. However, when the country was extremely powerful and the people's faith was unified, the current emperor bred foolish ambitions. Tempted by the demon, he began to wage war. After years of war, Atlantis began to decline, not only financially, but also in the people's hearts. Under the various negative effects brought about by the war, the people who had always been kind began to breed all kinds of negative emotions, and Atlantis was completely in chaos. "
"Looking at the decline of Atlantis, the king realized what a stupid mistake he had made. Unfortunately, all of this could not be salvaged. He regretted, regretted that he had listened to the demon's slander and ruined this glorious city that was blessed by God. He went to the church to repent to God, but what he had done could not be made up for. God did not answer him at all. Because of the king's tyranny, the people were impoverished, and finally, they could not help but launch a coup. They rushed into the palace and killed the king. The king repented, but he was still killed. Because of this, he had an extremely deep resentment, and he blamed God for not helping him, so his soul did not dissipate and turned into an evil spirit. The demon appeared and killed the king's family, but it was framed by the rebels. The king's soul finally turned into a resentful spirit, brutally killing everyone in sight. "
