This was a city made of stone, mixed with jade.
The broken sculptures and broken buildings had been destroyed by the ravages of countless years. However, it could be vaguely seen that this was once a beautiful city.
According to Eros, this Blood Shore Maze was destroyed tens of thousands of years ago.
If it was according to the cities on Earth, they might have already disappeared. After all, even the pyramids of Egypt only had a history of a few thousand years.
And the city in front of him, although it was damaged, the general layout was still there.
Søren could even deduce which were fountains and which were gardens based on the incomplete parts.
This city had a large number of public buildings and a large number of squares. The buildings of this city were far larger than those of the Nu Lang Wang City, and even more gorgeous.
From this, it could be inferred that this was a city with a relatively high level of civilization. Not only was the productivity higher, but the political system was also more advanced.
Søren stood at the city gate. In front of him was a straight road that seemed to lead straight to the center of the city.
Previously, when he was at the top of the mountain, Søren had clearly seen that the roads of this bloody maze were a spider web pattern.
There were a total of eight main roads that ran through the entire city, like a diameter line on a circle.
There were also eight ring roads that formed a concentric circle, just like the third, fourth, and fifth rings of Beijing. However, the ring roads in Beijing were rectangular.
Therefore, the road pattern of this city was like a Bagua, but it was circular.
These eight main roads that ran through the city corresponded to the sixteen city gates. Søren entered from one of the city gates.
In front of him was a road. It was one of the eight main roads that ran through the city.
According to theory, if he followed this road all the way down, he would be able to reach the Blood Lake in the center of the city. And the Dragonseal Ruins were on the temple in the center of the lake.
… ….
Søren gradually went deeper and deeper. He walked on the wide road the entire time. It was completely unimpeded, as if there was no feeling of a maze at all?
It looked like he was walking straight to the end of the road.
Søren just kept walking, and walking, and walking …
After almost four hours, he felt that something was wrong.
This city was very, very large, but including the blood lake in the center, it was only about 200 miles in diameter.
Søren's walking speed was very fast. In four hours, he had covered more than two hundred miles. He should have long passed through the entire city and reached the opposite city gate. It was also time to cross the Blood Lake in the center of the city.
However, there was no lake of blood at all, and the road seemed to be endless.
What was even stranger was that he didn't go through Ghost Hits Wall, nor did he return to his original spot. This was because the buildings and scenery on both sides were different.
Søren finally understood the meaning of this labyrinth.
Obviously, a normal city would not be designed to be a maze, because that would be completely chaotic.
This so-called maze was the city's defense mechanism. When the army of demon descendants attacked tens of thousands of years ago, the city activated its defense mechanism to prevent the enemy from entering the temple in the center of the lake.
Søren listened and said, "Eros, what's going on with the roads in this city?"
Eros said, "Master, you have been walking on vertical lines. This way, you will never enter the center of the city. You still need to walk on horizontal lines, but I have to tell you that every horizontal line may have fatal dangers. At that time, this city's defense mechanism was like this. They tried to use the entire city's defense mechanism to stop the army of demon descendants. "
The so-called horizontal lines were the rings of the entire city, and there were a total of eight rings.
"Can't I just walk through the ruins of these buildings?" Søren asked.
"That … is even more dangerous." Eros said, "It is daytime now, and the sun is shining, so there are no dead souls on the road outside. Once you enter the ruins of the buildings, the places where the sun cannot reach are filled with terrifying dead souls. "
Søren shuddered and said, "In other words, at night, there will be countless dead souls in the entire city?"
"Yes." Eros said, "So, you must find a place where you can hide from the dead souls before nightfall."
"Where can I hide from the dead souls?" Søren asked.
Eros said, "The Dragon Temple. Because inside every Dragon Temple, there will be holy light, and the dead souls will not dare to enter."
Søren said, "What are the characteristics of the Dragon Temple?"
Eros said, "On the surface, there are no characteristics, but at night, they will release holy energy light."
Søren said, "What is the relationship between these Dragon Temples and the temple in the center of the lake?"
Eros said, "This human kingdom is a kingdom of Dragon belief, so at the key nodes of the city, there will be Dragon Temples. These Dragon Temples surround and protect the temple in the center, and the temple is the energy core, command core, and holy core of the entire city. These temples and temples form the huge energy formation of the entire city. "
Søren said, "So, to successfully enter the temple in the center of the city, it is useless to look at the road, the key is to look at these Dragon Temples, right? Follow each temple, and finally enter the temple? "
"Yes." Eros said.
"How many temples are there in total?" Søren asked.
Eros said, "Sixteen."
Søren understood that after this city's defense was activated to the extreme, the huge energy formation was also activated.
So, if you followed the road, you would enter a complete ghost wall, and you would never reach the temple in the center of the city.
And the sixteen temples were the only reliable coordinates of the city. This city had a total of eight rings, and each ring had a temple. Eight times two, exactly sixteen.
So, to enter the temple, you must first find the temple.
Søren looked up at the sky and found that the sun was already tilting to the west, and it would soon set.
Once night fell, countless dead souls would appear, and at that time, even the strongest experts would die without a doubt. So, Søren must find the temple before dark.
And on the vertical lines of the city, there might not be any shrines. Only on the circular lines would there be shrines.
Søren continued forward, and after a few kilometers, he reached the intersection of the longitudinal line and the ring line. He was in the middle of a crossroad.
Should I go left or right?
Søren couldn't help but fall into a difficult choice. He carefully looked at the difference between left and right.
Looking to the left, he seemed to see a pile of bones. Many people died there, so there must be a fatal trap on the left side.
So, he went right. He couldn't help but look to the right. In the end, there were also many bones on the right side, and many people must have died there.
What … what the hell is going on?
There are bones on the left and right, and many people died there, so which way should I go?
"Master, use the Reversed Moon Chant, calm down, and listen to the call of the heart," Eros said.
Søren closed his eyes and entered the world of the Reversed Moon Chant. Soon, the lake of his heart completely calmed down, and the well water in his heart was completely calm, and the moon on the water surface was complete.
"Left … left …"
Then, an incomparably bewitching voice sounded in his ears.
This voice alone was enough to make him unable to extricate himself.
"Eros, are you talking?" Søren asked.
"Of course not." Eros said, "I said, in this city, no one can enter the temple in the city core, only you can."
"Left, left …"
That bewitching voice rang out again.
Is this a real guide, or a trap? Should I believe it?
Søren took a deep breath. If it wasn't for Eros, he might have gone in the opposite direction.
After hesitating for a few seconds, Søren walked toward the intersection on the left.
Suddenly …
A strange light and shadow appeared.
As if time was traveling, the surrounding scenery kept changing, and time kept rewinding, rewinding, and rewinding …
The collapsed ruins on both sides of the road were all restored, turning into gorgeous snow-white buildings. There was a library, a bathing pool, and a conference hall.
Green trees and flowers were everywhere on both sides of the road, and there were fountains everywhere. Above the gorgeous buildings, there was also a charming sky garden.
But then …
From both sides of the road, countless devil descendants poured in. Countless flames, countless dark energy, destroyed the beautiful buildings on both sides of the road.
Like a tide, the devil descendants passed through Søren's body, like a group of devil locusts. Everywhere they passed, not even a blade of grass grew.
Countless humans in gorgeous clothes were slaughtered, ravaged, and swallowed alive.
Then, there was an ordinary building in front of him. Suddenly, there was a roar of a Dragon, and then, like the sun shining, an amazing energy light burst out.
"Swish swish swish …"
Countless barbarians were instantly annihilated.
This was the Dragon Temple. It looked very ordinary, but at the critical moment, it would release energy light.
"Swish swish swish swish …"
A dazzling energy light suddenly shot into Søren's eyes.
Immediately, he quickly closed his eyes.
When he opened his eyes again, all the previous illusions had disappeared. Instead, there were ruins on both sides of the road.
The Dragon Temple was 300 meters ahead. It was the ordinary-looking building that looked like a public bath.
At this moment, a figure suddenly barged into the crossroad behind him.
A barbarian with a black body and a sharp horn on his head.
Søren was shocked and wanted to run away quickly. After all, the barbarians who could enter the bloody maze were very powerful.
However, the barbarian seemed to not see Søren. He stood at the intersection as if he was choosing whether to go left or right.
"Please, please don't go left." Søren prayed in his heart.
Sure enough, after hesitating for a long time, the barbarian walked to the right.
Then … Søren saw an extremely terrifying scene.
The barbarian had just stepped into the intersection on the right when his whole body trembled terribly. Then, his eyeballs exploded, and his skin cracked. Black and red blood spurted out. His whole body suddenly exploded and became a pile of meat paste.
Søren knew that this was because the air pressure in that area was almost zero, so the blood in his whole body boiled and exploded.
This city was indeed full of danger!
At this moment, the sun set in the west and the sunlight disappeared completely.
The sun had set, and there was still more than an hour before the sky turned dark. At that time, the whole city would be filled with terrifying undead.
However, there was still plenty of time because the temple in front of him was only 300 meters away. He would probably reach it in more than an hour.
However …
Whoosh …
The moment the sun set, the whole sky immediately darkened.
There were no stars, no moon, and the whole city fell into complete darkness.
Søren's heart trembled. This … this was a trap.
As soon as the sun set, night fell instantly.
Then, a scene that made Søren's hair stand on end appeared.
One by one, transparent undead drilled out of the ruins on both sides of the road and came out from the ground.
This huge city was a human kingdom, with millions of people living in it.
These millions of people were all slaughtered by the demonic army! Because this city was occupied by the demons, ashes to ashes, dust to dust, and the law of Dragon Power to balance reincarnation was broken.
These people who were slaughtered became powerful and ferocious undead.
In the eyes of the undead, Søren, a living person, was as clear and obvious as a searchlight.
Almost everyone's eyes were on him. Then, immediately, countless undead, thousands, tens of thousands of undead, surged towards him like a tide.
In the face of tens of thousands of undead, even a Dragon Warrior would undoubtedly die, let alone a mere Three-Star Warrior like Søren.
