Chapter 166: Holy City, Return

Boom! ! !

The last corpse fell to the ground, the group of snakes and giant pythons were out of shape, and all kinds of blood slag splashed all over the ground.

Dead leaves, swamp water surface, and green trees.

Some timid fugitives turned pale. Seeing such a scene for the first time, they couldn't help but run to the corner to vomit.

For a moment, all the horrified eyes were focused on the brown-clothed figure standing in the center and slowly closing his fist.

Molly's face was shocked, and the spear man and others on the side were relieved at first, but soon, their faces changed, and expressions of fear and fear appeared one after another.

After all, they almost wanted to fight with each other before.

The atmosphere was silent for a moment, and finally.

With a click, the dry branch was stepped on and broken.

Chen Feng turned and looked at everyone.

At the moment when the four eyes met, Molly, the backbone of the fugitives, hesitated for a moment, and finally endured the injury and took the initiative to come forward.

"Thank you for saving my life!"

With a sincere and grateful tone, she hurriedly bowed her hands to thank him.

As the only special person who awakened the seed of life, she knew how powerful the other party was.

Peak of the third level?

Maybe even the fourth level?

She didn't dare to think about it.

As for the other party's youthful appearance and the reason why he approached her and others, Molly didn't think about it anymore.

After awakening the seed of life, some special features will be obtained, especially the high-level status.

Keeping a young face is not a problem.

It is normal to have a strange temper and like to travel around disguised as an ordinary person.

Seeing this, Chen Feng's face was normal, and he probably saw that the other party had made up some information in his mind.

"Thank you for your help!"

"It was my Wu Heng who was blind before, please don't blame me!"

The spear man and others gradually came back to their senses, blushed, and then bowed to thank him with a guilty tone.

Without caring about their previous actions, Chen Feng just walked to the body of the black-scaled snake man and picked up a black gravel that was half the size of a fist.

His intuition told him that this was some kind of metal ore, and the steel bone talent was activated soon.

[Metal Essence +1! 】

【Metal Essence +1! 】

After a few seconds, there was a click.

The black ore was broken into slag, and it looked like it was crushed by him.

【Steel Bone LV3: 25/100】

The panel prompt appeared, and 1 progress point was added.

He sensed left and right, but unfortunately, there was no similar black ore around.

"Are you looking for obsidian?"

Molly's eyes moved slightly, and she probably saw what Chen Feng was thinking.

Without speaking, Chen Feng looked at her.

"This kind of ore is very rare, and the ore group is also hidden very secretly. No one knows where it is."

"However, I heard that there are people in the Holy City who trade with it, and it is rumored that some kind of ritual can be performed."

She probably saw that Chen Feng was not from the southern territory.

The key lies in appearance. Such black hair, black eyes and skin color, at least she has never seen it in the south, and it is rumored that it only exists in the north.

Chen Feng was thoughtful after hearing this, and soon saw the other party take the initiative to bring people to pick up the burlap bags on the surrounding corpses.

There were many finger-sized snake-shaped knife coins in it, in black, red, and silver, as if made of hard copper.

"This is the common currency in the southern territory, jointly made by the three tribes of Black Blade, Fire Rong, and Silver Wood."

"Please keep it, sir."

With a sincere attitude, seeing the money bag handed over by the other party, Chen Feng considered for a moment, accepted it, and put it into a small snake skin bag he picked up.

Although he felt that he might not be able to use it, it was better to have it than not.

Then, seeing the other party looking at him expectantly, and then seeing the hopeful and humble eyes of the surrounding fugitives.

He naturally knew the purpose of their active show of goodwill.

With a flash of thought, Chen Feng glanced at the corpse on the ground.

Anyway, he was originally trying to lure out the fourth-level snake man.

Moreover, the obsidian just now also gave him some ideas.

Half a fist can provide a little progress. What if it is the size of a human head, or even a larger volume?

There is such a mineral transaction in the Holy City. If you can get it, your steel bone talent will obviously grow a lot.

Suddenly, he raised his hand and pointed to the south.

Molly understood and looked surprised.

"Thank you, sir!"

If there was such a strong man to accompany us, it would be much safer.

The spearman and others were also very excited, and they thanked him one after another.

Finally, the group set off again. Chen Feng walked in silence throughout the whole process, but he was a little worried about the inconvenience of this kind of communication.

"Maybe, I should learn the language of this world."

It sounds a bit difficult, but in fact, it is not too difficult for him.

After all, he can understand what these people are saying, which can be combined with the differences in syllables and tones, forced to remember, and then imitate the pronunciation.

In addition, his mental strength is now extraordinary, and so is his memory.

Suddenly, along the way.

Dead leaves were crushed under their feet, and gnarled tree roots and muddy swamps were crossed by them.

Chen Feng took the opportunity to memorize some syllables and words, and also listened attentively, and understood this world better.

The Secret Realm of the Snake Spirit is what these fugitives call the Snake Spirit Continent.

It is said that thousands of years ago, this continent was extremely vast and had a very brilliant human civilization called the Ancient Taido Empire.

It controlled many ancient rituals and alchemical inventions and flourished for a time.

But later, the continent collapsed, the civilization disappeared, and the Snake God was born.

The eight people who followed the Snake God first were blessed, and thus became the eight major snake clans today.

Each of them has a trace of the blood of the Snake God, and has supernatural powers, and has absolute ruling power over some areas.

The area where they are located is therefore called the Snake Spirit Continent by later generations.

"What about the Holy City?"

On the way, when we took a break.

There were fugitives gathered in groups. They were very curious about these ancient legends and asked: "I heard that the Holy City was born hundreds of years ago. Is this true or false?"

"The Holy City was indeed born hundreds of years ago, but there are several rumors about it."

The spearman named Wu Heng was considered a small leader among the fugitives. He hesitated for a moment and said in a low voice: "The first one, the most widely known one, is that the Holy City found the treasures left by the ancient Taido civilization, so it was successfully established to shelter us low-level people."

"The second one is that the Holy City was created by the ninth person who followed the Snake God back then. It was very powerful, but he finally left the Snake God, created the Holy City, and was buried here."

As they spoke, everyone had different expressions.

Chen Feng, who was sitting alone on the side, seemed to be indifferent, but in fact he was quietly sensing and listening.

"The third one, it is rumored that the Holy City was not created by people in our world."

"An outsider came, he was not used to the atrocities of the snake people, and raised the banner of resistance, so there was the Holy City."

The words were unintentional, but the listeners were interested.

Chen Feng didn't expect that these people also knew about the existence of outsiders.

"I don't know where Wu Heng heard the rumor from, sorry to make you laugh."

Moli accompanied Chen Feng throughout the whole process, her face was embarrassed, and she didn't dare to neglect him.

With a blank expression, Chen Feng just shook his head gently.

These rumors cannot be verified, but he has some ideas about the words of outsiders.

Since the Snake Spirit Secret Realm can be opened with a key, there must be other people who can enter this world.

Shenwu League, Snake Spirit Sect, and even

"Extreme Martial School"

Chen Feng thought of the residual memories he saw in Qinggang City.

Blackwater Town was accidentally pulled into the abyss, and the corresponding secret realm was also the Snake Spirit World.

And the rescuers at that time included the instructors and law enforcement team of the Extreme Martial School.

If they also came to this world, then perhaps, they also left some traces.

Thinking, Chen Feng became more and more curious about the secrets of this world.

After the rest, the group hurried on their way again.

Gradually, another day passed, and they finally crossed the Green Swamp.

Everyone was in a messy outfit, stained with a few dead leaves.

But looking up, a vast plain appeared in front of them.

The wide and flat dirt road led straight into the distance, and golden rice was growing and stretching.

Looking further away, a white-gray city was located at the end of the ground line, built on the mountain, standing like a giant, covering a vast area.

A huge waterfall rushed down from the city wall, and a silver river surrounded the bottom, separating the city from the plain.

The suspension bridge outside the white-gray city wall was retracted, and the buildings were lined up in rows.

Fortresses, streets, soldiers. White-gray stones were piled up layer by layer, and the hill in the center was completely transformed, with only a patch of green plants on the top of the mountain.

From a distance, you can see the densely packed white-gray houses and streets built around the mountains in the center of the city over the tall city walls.

Even some huge flying eagles, seemingly carrying humans, can be seen hovering in the sky.

In just a moment, everyone who had been fleeing was excited and yearning.

"We're here, we're finally here!"

"That should be the Holy City! It's said that there are many powerful humans in the Holy City who can summon giant eagles. It's true!"

"It's rumored that there are some inscriptions engraved on the walls of the Holy City. They are indestructible and cannot be broken by snake people."

"We are safe, we are finally safe!"

Excited voices rang out, and even the calmer curly-haired woman Molly was breathing rapidly and trembling a little.

Chen Feng didn't care about this because he was also a little surprised.

This is a completely different architectural city from the Earth, full of fantasy style.

It's like a place outside the world, and it's like the secluded castle where the elves live in the legend.

Cry!

Suddenly, perhaps they discovered their presence.

It can be seen that the eagles are crying in the sky above the city a thousand meters away.

Then, two huge eagles flapped their wings and came.

"Don't be afraid, everyone. They are the guards of the Holy City."

"Just tell them the truth in a while, and they will take us into the city."

Molly obviously had some experience. The commotion of the crowd was suppressed, and they all waited anxiously in place.

Not long after, there was a gust of wind, and the eagles approached and gradually lowered their altitude.

Looking up, it can be seen that the eagles are about five or six meters in size, each with brown feathers, sharp beaks of dark gold, and sharp claws.

There are also some strong men wearing silver armor and helmets, ranging in age from twenty to thirty-five, holding spears and bows, and looking alert.

"Who are you?"

A strong man in his thirties asked, with a burly figure, nearly 1.9 meters tall, and obviously the leader of this group of people.

He ignored others, including Chen Feng.

His eyes stopped on Molly at the beginning, alert and vigilant.

In an instant, Chen Feng sensed a slight movement and noticed a clue.

Although the aura of the Holy City Guards is between the second and third levels, it is very similar to the power of Molly, and is obviously of the same power system.

"Sir, we are fleeing from the territory of the snake tribe."

"We yearn for the glory of the Holy City and hope to live in the Holy City."

Molly said truthfully, with a sincere tone, and even took out the bag containing the snake-shaped coins and handed it to the other party as a sign of goodwill.

However, he saw the muscular man in silver armor wave his hand to stop him and frowned.

At the same time, he glanced around the others, looked calm, and shook his head.

"The holy city is short of resources and cannot support useless people."

"You are the only one here who has awakened the life seed. I can only take you into the city."

After the words fell, everyone's expressions changed drastically.

Chen Feng's eyes flashed, and he suddenly realized that the so-called holy city might not be as beautiful as he imagined.

"grown ups!"

Molly looked anxious and said hurriedly: "They can work and contribute when they enter the Holy City, and they won't be a burden!"

Others also spoke up, panicking and echoing.

But soon the wind blew and the eagle soared.

It can be seen that the strong man in armor spoke indifferently, and looked down calmly with the guards.

"People like you happen every year and every month."

"The Holy City has a limited area and it is difficult to provide for it day after day."

He stood high in the air, ignoring everyone, and finally looked at Molly and said, "If you really want to bring them into the city, go and live outside the city and wait for a place."

As the cold words fell to the ground, two giant flying eagles could be seen fluttering their wings and carrying the escort away.

For a moment, looking at the figure getting further and further away, everyone who had fled thousands of miles looked pale, desperate and confused.

Didn’t it mean that the Holy City would treat them equally and treat them well?

Why are you so indifferent and turned away?

"Lord Molly."

The spear man named Wu Heng had a complex expression, a little guilty and confused.

He knew very well the specialness of those who awakened the Seed of Life, and Molly, who came with them, could have entered the Holy City directly, but ended up losing the opportunity because of their drag.

To this, there was no answer.

Instead, Molly looked at Chen Feng with a complicated expression.

"Your Mightiness."

She originally thought that the other party would show his strength and gain the attention of the Holy City.

But looking at it now, the master may have other ideas, or he may not want to get too involved in their affairs.

"What is the quota?"

Chen Feng didn't care about her thoughts, but suddenly asked back.

The tone was a bit stiff and jerky, and very forced.

This was something he forcibly memorized and imitated the syllables, which were not quite standard.

"That's the quota to enter the Holy City."

All luck dissipated, and Molly was completely sure that the other party was not from the southern realm.

"I always thought it was a rumor, but I didn't expect it to be true."

"It is rumored that the number of humans that the Holy City can accept is fixed and limited. If ordinary people want to enter the city, they can only enter the city after the people in the city die and there are extra places available."

The tone was bitter, and Molly looked a little sad.

Chen Feng was thoughtful, his eyes moved slightly, looking towards the outside world of the river that isolated the Holy City.

There is a group of dark brown buildings there, scattered around, mostly built around the foot of the Holy City, with some faint signs of human figures.

"It's okay, Lady Molly. It's good to be near the Holy City."

The fugitives were commotion for a moment, and the man named Wu Heng braced himself up, and soon came closer and said with a forced smile: "And can't people live there? Let's just go there to survive, and we will wait until the day we enter the city."

They still had hopes and illusions, and Molly sighed, that was all they could do.

Immediately, the group discussed for a while and decided to go to the foot of the Holy City Mountain.

But soon, I saw someone speaking in surprise.

"Where is your Excellency?"

Molly was surprised when she heard this and turned her head to look.

The breeze blew, raising some dust.

The burly figure wrapped in brown linen disappeared, and only the bag containing the snake-shaped coins was still there.
