"There are too many of them."
Standing outside the city gate in Silence, Adil thought to himself as he looked at the crimson eyes in front of him. He then attacked without hesitation.
In the dark night, a silver thread streaked across the sky. While it created a fog, it also restrained all the energy particles in the surroundings and gathered them on Adil's body.
Counting the time, it had been two months since he was reborn into this world.
Two months was not a long time for a Level-3 Sorcerer, but it was enough for him to recover part of his magic power.
Boom!
Silver light filled the entire sky, illuminating the ruins of the city and revealing the corpses that were hidden in it.
The corpses looked ferocious, and the flesh on their bodies had withered. However, they were still crawling toward Adil as if they were attracted by something.
However, in the next moment, boundless silver light fell from the sky. Under Adil's spiritual control, it hit the corpses accurately.
Roar!
Low growls were heard from around him. They were filled with anger and unwillingness, and there was also the sound of corpses falling to the ground.
Following this, a warm current surged through Adil's body. The Realm Energy in his body was increasing rapidly as if there was no limit.
The next moment, everything around him fell into silence.
As the corpses fell to the ground, a huge pale arm suddenly slammed down from the sky. Its target was not Adil, but Leon who was behind Adil.
Behind Adil, Leon's face was pale. He pushed the door open with his hand while holding a black statue in his hand. He was mumbling softly as if he was communicating with something.
Feeling the sudden pressure around him, cold sweat appeared on his forehead, and his originally pale face became even paler at this moment.
However, even so, he did not stop what he was doing. He clenched his teeth and stood there, focusing on opening the door.
A spot of silver combat energy swept around him and gradually rose against the flow, colliding with the arm that was condensed in the sky.
At the crucial moment, Adil did not hesitate. He immediately pulled out the long sword that was hanging on his waist and slashed at the arm that had appeared in the sky.
Bang!
Silver Dou Qi exploded, instantly chopping the side of the arm, directly cutting off the pale white arm, causing it to turn into a thick black aura.
This was the explosion of combat energy. Compared to magic power that needed a certain amount of time to accumulate, Adil's combat energy recovered faster. With the support of his good body, he had already recovered to the level of a Grand Knight.
Even though this was not his own body and he could not gather the power of the Moon Elves, the power of a Grand Knight's Aura under the control of Adil, who had once been a Source Awakening Knight, the power he could obtain was definitely beyond anyone's imagination.
A faint warm current flowed through his heart. Adil stood where he was and looked at the sky in the distance, and his expression became serious.
In the sky, clouds of black mist began to condense, carrying with them a deep sense of malice towards the living, as well as all sorts of negative emotions.
On the ground, the dried corpses roared at the sky. From time to time, a faint mist would rise from their bodies and gradually rise into the sky, making the mass of black gas in the sky seem even larger.
This sort of situation caused Adil's heart to shake, and his gaze unconsciously became much more serious.
"The curse here has completely awakened."
Looking at the dense black gas gathering above the ruins, this thought flashed through his mind. Without hesitation, he took a step forward.
A silver longsword tore through the air, bringing with it a silver light as it streaked across the sky like moonlight. It gathered a massive amount of power and slashed into the distance.
A silver brilliance flickered, and a huge power spread out, scattering the black fog that was condensing in the distance. It temporarily stopped in mid-air, and its form spread out in all directions.
Strictly speaking, with the amount of power that Adil had used, it was impossible for him to completely destroy the main body of the curse. However, he could delay it temporarily and slow down the recovery of the curse.
"It's done!" Leon's anxious and excited voice came from behind.
Holding the statue in his hand, his face was pale, and his whole body was covered in cold sweat. Suppressing the depression and discomfort in his heart, he looked back at Adil and shouted, "Go!"
As soon as he finished speaking, a bright silver light flashed in front of him and carried him out. In the blink of an eye, he disappeared from where he was standing.
Sensing that Adil and Leon's aura had disappeared, a huge ferocious face gradually appeared in the fog. It looked at the open city gate in the distance and roared.
… …
"We're finally out."
In the outside world, Leon was already drenched in sweat after being dragged out of the city by Adil. It seemed that he had been under a lot of pressure. "Luckily you reacted in time. Otherwise, if the curse was fully activated, we would be in big trouble."
Looking at Leon, Adil shook his head. "Are you done with what you wanted to do?"
"It's almost done." Leon stood up and turned to look behind him.
At this moment, they were standing in an abandoned desert.
Behind them, the ruins of a city lay there in Silence. From time to time, there was a slight sound, which was a little scary in this place.
In the ruins of the city, the city gate that they had walked through before was still there. Compared to before, there seemed to be some changes. The carvings on the stone gate were much more realistic.
"We chose a good day to go in."
Looking at the city from afar and listening to the sound of the wind coming from afar, Leon sighed and said, "We have just entered the recovery period. Although these curses have become active, they have not fully recovered. Most of their power is still asleep."
"In a few months, when the curse is fully recovered, let alone whether we can escape or not, even if we can successfully escape, the curse will want to entangle you and lead you into this city again."
Looking at the ruins in the distance, he sighed in Silence.
Adil agreed with what he said.
The power of the curse was indeed very strong. The reason why it did not cause too much trouble for him before was because the main body of the curse was slow to react. Even when they left, it did not explode with its full power.
Even so, at this moment, the two of them still had some residual effects.
It was a complicated black mark. As they left, it had been branded on their bodies. It contained a trace of the curse's power.
Although this trace of power was weak, it could subtly influence the host. Under the influence of this power, the host might do something.
In the history of the Violet Flower Kingdom, there had been many people who had walked out of this Lost City. Some of these people were ordinary people, and some were shamans. However, in the end, they all did not end well. Every one of them did not harm themselves or went crazy. Even if a few of them were slightly better, when they became old and weak, they still could not suppress the power of this mark and would unconsciously take the initiative to enter this Lost City.
Of course, although the mark wasn't anything good, it wasn't as troublesome as the one on Adil and Leon.
After all, this was a forbidden area that had just been revived. Its power was not as terrifying as when it was at its peak. Moreover, it was not just Adil. Even Leon was a shaman with a strong background. It would not be too troublesome for him to get rid of the mark on his body.
"Let's go."
Silence looked at the scenery in the distance for a while. When they had enough rest, Leon turned to look at Adil. "We have been here for so long, it's time to leave."
"If we stay here for too long, I'm afraid that something unexpected will happen."
He looked at Adil and said. Seeing Adil nod, he took the initiative to lead the way and walked along a rough and simple path towards the outside.
The path in front of them was very rough and simple. It was a simple path made of some gravel and wooden planks. It was very difficult to walk.
Walking on this path, they walked for a whole half an hour before returning to land. They were close to the place where they had camped.
However, at this moment, Leon stopped and frowned. He silently squatted down and looked at a certain corner.
"Hmm?"
Looking at his actions, Adil also realized that something was wrong.
In the place in front of them, there was a remnant of a strange aura. However, this aura was very weak. Even with Adil's powerful spiritual senses, he almost missed it when he was not paying attention.
"Detecting aura molecules. Adult male human. There are 3 of them …" In his mind, the A.I. Chip, which had been silent for a long time, prompted again.
"Someone has been here, and not long ago." Leon carefully touched the rough ground and frowned.
"Could it be your subordinates?" Adil opened his mouth and said a possibility.
"Not very likely." Leon shook his head. "Other than your father, the rest of the subordinates that I brought with me are all elites. They are very clear about how terrifying the forbidden area is. They would not go near it easily."
"And before we came in, I told them to stand guard outside and not to enter."
"In that case, someone else came here before?" Adil also frowned.
Leon did not reply. His expression gradually darkened. Then, he suddenly stood up. "Let's go."
"If I didn't guess wrongly, I'm afraid that something has happened outside."
He looked at a certain direction in the distance and spoke with a gloomy face.
After concluding this unexpected discovery, they continued to hurry forward. Moreover, their speed was much faster than before.
Not long after, when the number of plants on the road gradually increased, they walked to a flat land and returned to the place where they had started.
"What a surprise. I didn't think that you would actually be able to walk out of the forbidden area."
