Chapter 1010 Giant Pillar

In the end, Chen Lin chose the superior room.

Looking at the situation now, I can't say it's safe even in the camp, so it's best not to be separated from the blind girl.

If it were not for safety reasons, there would be no need for him to stay in the inn. Neither he nor the blind girl would be affected by the alien energy.

But when he made this choice, the old shopkeeper immediately showed a knowing smile, and even Wanmeng Zhenjun showed a strange expression.

Chen Lin didn't explain. After paying the money, he went upstairs.

The superior room was on the third floor. It was very spacious and divided into two rooms, inside and outside. It happened that he and the blind girl had one room each.

With Hua Ruyu's experience, he now tries to avoid any close contact with the other party, only uses the other party's fighting power, and avoids suspicion in other aspects.

After checking the facilities in the room, Chen Lin looked satisfied.

As expected, there is no abnormal energy at all. If you use spiritual crystals to set up a spirit gathering array, you can even practice.

However, he is currently stuck at the bottleneck in the middle stage of Void Refining. There is no need to waste time here. It is better to complete the task and leave early.

As soon as the inspection was completed, Lord Wanmeng came to visit.

"I wonder what Daoyou Chen has planned next?"

After being invited into the room, Wanmeng Zhenjun began to ask questions frankly.

He has been trapped here for too long, and now Chen Lin's appearance gives him hope of getting out of trouble, and he seems a little impatient.

Chen Lin looked at the other party and said: "Of course I will continue to hunt Luo monsters. Is there any other way to gain merit?"

"No!"

Lord Wan Meng answered immediately.

Then he added: "However, the level of the Luo monsters within the giant pillar is too low, and there are simply not enough. If you want to complete the task, you can only go outside. Do you think Daoyou Chen is sure to ensure safety outside?"

Speaking of this, Chen Lin became solemn.

After pondering for a while, he said: "What is the specific situation outside? How many Luo monsters are there with four stars and above, and how wide is their range?"

He had just arrived here, and he didn't know many things clearly. He didn't know whether he could ensure safety outside.

Zhenjun Wanmeng immediately replied: "No one knows how big the scope is, because no one can go deep."

"Don't even the General's Mansion know?"

It stands to reason that the general's office should take the initiative to announce this kind of information. After all, they are hunting Luo monsters to fight for the nightmare world. The more complete the information is, the better they can complete their mission.

True Lord Wanmeng said solemnly: "I am also very confused about this matter. The General's Mansion has never released this kind of information, and the classics at the Hall of Merit are also unclear. I suspect they don't know about it either."

"How can this be?"

Chen Lin was stunned.

Then he asked doubtfully: "As the remaining force of hunting Luo, it doesn't even know how big the enemy's territory is. It seems a bit unreasonable. Doesn't anyone know the reason?"

Lord Wanmeng shook his head.

"There are only a few Nightmare World creatures in the General's Mansion. Apart from handling affairs normally and in accordance with the rules, they never come into contact with anyone. The people in the guard team can communicate briefly, but they don't seem to know much."

This situation made Chen Lin very puzzled, and he frowned and thought.

Zhenjun Wan Meng added: "So the people here suspect that the camp here is not the main camp where they fought against Luo. It should be just a branch. The Nightmare Realm has lost the ability to control this place and can only Just use the rules to send some people over!"

Chen Lin nodded slightly.

This statement has a certain possibility.

If this is the case, it is still quite advantageous. If it is not the main battlefield, then the residual energy after Luo's collapse will not be that much, and the number and level of Luo monsters will be relatively weaker.

Putting aside this doubt, Chen Lin asked again: "You have been here for so long, and you have never gone outside the range of the giant pillar?"

"Been there!"

True Lord Wan Meng nodded immediately.

Then he added: "I have been there three times in total. The first two times I came back successfully, and there were some small gains. But the third time I met a five-star Shura, he just looked at me from a distance and I turned into a monster. An expert passed by and rescued me, and when he came back, he used the light of purification to return to normal."

A look of lingering fear appeared on his face, and he said: "The feeling of turning into a monster is very terrifying. It made me lose my state of mind and breed inner demons. The light of purification can only purify the body and soul, but it cannot purify the mind. As a result, I have two hundred For the rest of the years, I didn’t dare to face the Luo monster and kept hiding in the camp.”

"Fortunately, I still have some means to eliminate the erosion of nightmare energy, so that it will not turn into nightmare. As long as the erosion is too serious, I will come to this inn to relieve myself for a period of time. It was not until the past few decades that things got better."

Chen Lin suddenly felt enlightened.

No wonder the other party has made no achievements here for hundreds of years. It turns out to be this reason.

Otherwise, given the opponent's ability to explore the nightmare world and his mysterious methods, this should not be the case.

At this time, he remembered a question, looked at the other party and asked: "What is the punishment for fellow Taoist Wanmeng, and what level of tasks do you need to complete?"

"Four-star mission."

Zhenjun Wan Meng looked very depressed.

With his ability, it is very difficult to hunt three-star Luo monsters, and four-star Luo monsters are simply impossible. But if he wants to complete the task, he must not only hunt four-star Luo monsters, but also ten of them!

Otherwise, he would have to hunt down a five-star creature, which could turn him into a monster with just one look. He didn't even dare to think about it.

That's why when he saw Chen Lin, it was like seeing a life-saving straw.

Chen Lin was even more depressed.

The opponent's four-star mission is just like this. Isn't his five-star mission hopeless? The title is really not easy to get!

But the matter has come to this point, and there is no use in feeling sorry for yourself. We still have to find a way to complete the task, and we can't delay it. A big change in the nightmare world is about to happen, and we must end it before it starts, otherwise it will be even more difficult.

After calming down, Chen Lin hesitated and took out a basket of steamed buns.

Put it on the table and push it in front of Zhenjun Wanmeng.

"This is?"

True Lord Wanmeng was a little confused.

In his perception, the bun was just an ordinary bun, with no energy fluctuations at all, indicating that it was made of ordinary materials. He didn't know what Chen Lin used it for.

Although he has been trapped for hundreds of years, he will not need such earthly objects.

Chen Lin said calmly: "It's a special delicacy, you can try it."

Zhenjun Wanmeng looked suspicious, but Chen Lin had said so, so he couldn't refuse, otherwise he seemed to be on guard.

So he stretched out his hand, picked up a bun, and put it into his mouth.

Immediately his eyes lit up. Although this bun was not a spiritual food, it tasted really good. It was not bad for satisfying the appetite.

But immediately, his expression was stunned, and his eyes slowly closed, looking intoxicated.

After a while, two tears fell from the corners of his eyes, and his expression became relaxed.

After a long time, he gently wiped the corners of his eyes and opened his eyes.

"Fellow Daoist Chen, this bun?"

Zhenjun Wanmeng couldn't imagine that there were such magical buns in the world, and they were not spiritual food.

Chen Lin smiled and said: "This is a soul bun. It comes from a nightmare scene. It has the magical effect of soothing the soul. How about it? Can it help repair your soul?"

"The effect is very good!"

True Lord Wan Meng stood up, bowed respectfully, and said, "Thank you, Fellow Daoist Chen, for your helping hand. I am deeply grateful. I can't repay you at this time. If I have to leave, I will never forget this kindness!"

He meant what he said.

Since the hole in his mind appeared, he used countless methods, but to no avail. In the end, he relied on time to slowly recover.

However, time only alleviated it, but could not cure it. This made him dare not leave the area of ​​the giant pillar. If it continued like this, he would have no hope of leaving.

But now that he has this magical bun, there is a turning point. Even if he doesn't get any other help from Chen Lin, he can still have a chance if he slowly plans his own plan.

Chen Lin was very satisfied with Zhenjun Wan Meng's attitude. The other party could assess the situation and did not continue to maintain his own identity, which made it easier to get along with him.

But still remind me.

He closed the cage, pushed it closer to the other party, and said, "This steamed bun is worth ten thousand nightmare coins, so don't waste it."

Zhenjun Wanmeng paused when he stretched out his hand, and the corners of his mouth twitched involuntarily.

But in the end, he gritted his teeth, took the cage in his hand, and put it away.

Now let alone 10,000 Nightmare coins, even 100,000 Nightmare coins are needed. As for how to pay back, that is a matter for the future.

Naturally, Chen Lin didn't mean to ask the other party to pay for it. He just wanted to let the other party know the value of the things. Don't think that things made of ordinary materials are not valuable.

After the other party put away the buns, he said seriously: "You should know what masters are in this camp."

The purpose of asking this is not to form a team, as it is unrealistic to form a team here, but to trade the map and Luo monster information outside the giant pillar with this master.

Even if he wants to go out to hunt Luo monsters, he has to find those who are alone, otherwise he will not be able to stand two or even more than two at once.

Zhenjun Wanmeng immediately understood Chen Lin's thoughts.

After pondering for a while, he said: "There are indeed some masters, but these people live alone and rarely have contact with others. Some even do not return to the camp at all."

"Aren't you going back to camp?"

Chen Lin was surprised and then asked: "Then where do they live? Is it outside the scope of the giant pillar?"

He had explored the entire area around the giant pillar before, but had not seen any buildings. The place was desolate, and his line of sight was unobstructed. He could see far away at a glance.

"Of course not." Zhenjun Wan Meng shook his head and said, "They live on the giant pillars."

"On top of the giant pillar?"

Chen Lin looked surprised and said: "Aren't those giant pillars the eyes of the formation? Can people live on them?"

According to the information he had learned before, the giant pillar formation was used to absorb higher-level energy. He never expected that it could be inhabited, so he didn't pay attention during the exploration.

Zhenjun Wanmeng explained: "It is naturally impossible for people to live in normal formation eyes, but some of them have been abandoned, so they will not be affected by energy."

After a pause, he added: "Besides, if you live up there, you don't have to worry about being contacted by parasitic species. You just have to be able to block the attacks of three-star Luo monsters."
