…
The origin of the name of Blood Shadow City is naturally not unfounded, and this basis is also inseparable from the entire urban construction and layout of Blood Shadow City.
Generally speaking, the construction of a city is mostly done by people from all directions, and it will be divided into four gates, east, west, north and south. City walls are added above the four gates to facilitate connection and defense with traffic in the four directions.
But Blood Shadow City is obviously an exception.
If I could describe Blood Shadow City in one sentence, it would be that this is a huge fortress built purely for war. It can only be viewed from a distance, not played up close.
And now...
On the wall of Blood Shadow City stood a young man who was looking up into the distance and looking around. His blue gown was blown by the wind, making bursts of noise.
Judging from his expression, the young man was obviously shocked.
In fact, anyone would be shocked when they see such an ancient city, because it is a huge ancient city that completely wraps up an entire mountain.
Round.
Starting from the outermost foot of the mountain, a huge city wall made of pitch black stones encloses the entire mountain in an extremely huge circle.
And extending one mile further inward from this city wall, there is another huge circular city wall. However, this city wall is a full two meters higher than the outermost city wall.
The trees are green and the city walls are high.
However, this is not over yet.
According to this distance, circle after circle of circular city walls extend from the outside to the inside. The circular walls are like water ripples, and each time they go inward, the height increases by two meters.
"What a miracle!" The young man exclaimed sincerely as he looked at the Blood Shadow City behind him, which was getting higher and higher, forming a circle around it like a huge fortress "pyramid".
No wonder it’s named Blood Shadow City.
When the young man looked at the red flags standing among the trees on the circular city wall, fluttering in the strong wind, he really felt the feeling of blood-red shadows everywhere.
Of course, the most spectacular thing is the "trace" under the feet.
It was a trace that extended from the outermost city wall to the innermost city wall. It passed straight through and cut a "hole" in the entire Blood Shadow City.
The young man looked at the "traces" of hasty repairs and was somewhat surprised.
because…
It shouldn't take much effort to completely erase this trace, especially when it comes to building such a huge ancient city. It couldn't be easier.
However, this trace remains.
It seems extremely eye-catching.
"It seems that it should be specially left as a warning for future generations, right?" The young man thought of this and nodded subconsciously. Now he was sure of a few points.
First of all, Blood Shadow City is built on a mountain. The mountain is not too high, but it is very large. There are four huge gates on the outermost city wall.
After passing the outermost city gate, there are also four gates on the second city wall.
but…
The location and the outermost city gate are not in a straight line, but are staggered in a unique way. This approach virtually increases the time for a person to enter from the outermost city wall to the middle city wall.
From a convenience perspective, it is certainly unreasonable.
Then, there is only one possibility to allow Demon Blood to build like this, which is an obscure defensive method!
There are two possible rules for this defense method. One is divided according to clan. For example, each clan has different rules for entering the city.
Of course, it may also be divided into classes.
The second possibility is that this arrangement also contains some special formation layout.
If it's a little more complicated, both possibilities are included.
In this way, it will be very troublesome to enter from the outside to the inside, because you have to follow specific "rules" and successfully pass through guards one after another.
No wonder…
What that person did was to split the Blood Shadow City in half with one sword. Indeed, it would be really difficult to walk through such an ancient city.
And, the most important thing is, once you get in, it's really not easy to get out.
Just as he was thinking this, a shout also sounded from behind the young man. It was a voice that clearly contained surprise and surprise.
"Don't move, turn around slowly!"
For the demon soldiers guarding the outermost edge of Blood Shadow City, what could be more shocking than seeing a young man standing on the city wall with his hands behind his hands, leisurely looking at the scenery
Which clan's relative is this, coming to Blood Shadow City to visit relatives
Don't you even understand the rules of Blood Shadow City
The spear in the demon soldier's hand was held tightly. The biggest reason why he did not use his hands directly was that this guy looked too leisurely, as leisurely as if he was standing on the wall of his own home.
This made it necessary for him to distinguish the identity of the other party.
At this moment, the young man turned his head obediently and curled his lips, with a look of displeasure on his face after being disturbed.
The spear in the demon soldier's hand subconsciously relaxed.
Because, he saw the magic eye on the young man's forehead that was shining with light. Since there is a magic eye, it is certain that the other party is a demon.
only…
Why does the magic eye on the young man's forehead look a little weird
Wait a moment.
Purple... purple magic eye? !
The entire expression of the magic soldier was confused for a moment. He had been guarding the outermost city gate for more than ten years and had seen too many strange things.
However, he had never felt like vomiting blood like he did today.
"Spy, spy! Catch...catch the spy!" The demon soldier's voice was obviously trembling, because it was really difficult for him to get a trace of satisfaction from successfully identifying the opponent's identity in this mission.
After all, there is no purple magic eye among the demons at all.
So, this human spy…
Really a la carte!
This was the Demon Soldier's first thought, and his second thought was that he felt a little dizzy, as if his head had been hit hard from behind.
When he turned around, he also saw a figure.
It was a man wearing a black uniform, with a pointed lower forehead, and a bright red magic eye on his forehead.
The most important thing is that this man is holding an iron rod in his hand, a black iron rod.
"A guy like this... dares to pretend to be an adult in the reincarnation realm..." The demon soldier's expression was very angry, but he could no longer control his body. His vision went dark and he fell directly to the ground.
"Ajiu, what number is this?" The young man looked at the demon soldier who was lying on the ground foaming at the mouth, shook his head slightly, and turned around again.
"Your Majesty, this is already the third one today. There is still one North City Gate left. Sir, do you want to continue looking at it?" Su Jiu, a young man, immediately replied.
As a lower-class person without much strength.
In the past two years, Su Jiu has been very proud and happy in life. First, he was promoted from Huai'an County to Xinhe Mansion, and then became the acting messenger to contact everyone.
And now…
Follow the enshrined adults to look around at the "scenery".
As if he had become a big shot, he had to stick a red magic eye on his forehead to show his identity.
"We've almost seen the scenery outside, let's go inside and have a look." The young man looked at the surrounding grassland full of flowers, closed his eyes slightly, and took a deep breath.
"Okay." Su Jiu nodded, not surprised at all by the young man's words. However, she probed her head and moved her lips slightly, as if she wanted to say something.
"Is there anything else?" The young man noticed Su Jiu's appearance behind him and asked casually.
"Do you really have to wear this purple magic eye all the time? As far as I know, there are no purple demons among the demons..."
"You think there's something wrong with purple?"
"No... no problem!"
"I don't think there's any problem. Don't you think this color is more high-profile than the actual color?" The young man nodded with satisfaction.
"Yes, it is indeed very... high-profile..." Su Jiu nodded as well, moving her lips, but finally did not dare to say the next sentence.
High profile!
That is really high-profile. Wherever you go, you can be seen as a spy at a glance. This is not high-profile. What is high-profile? ! This is Blood Shadow City!
The capital of the demon clan, why should it be so high-profile
"Okay, let's go inside and have a look." After the young man said that, he glanced at a wooden ladder that had been set up at his feet, and then climbed down the ladder.
"Yes!" Su Jiu watched this scene and followed immediately. After the young man got off the ground, he also climbed down the ladder and climbed down the wall.
…
…
Bai Xing had always thought that his life would not be too easy after the First World War in the Southern Territory, but in fact, his life this year had not been anything unusual.
He still holds the position of governor of the Star Territory.
Moreover, Yun Qingwu also dispatched several additional deputy commanders to the Star Territory to obey his command.
This also made Bai Xing feel a little at a loss for a while. However, a year later, his position is still as stable as a rock.
Yun Qingwu is still Yun Qingwu, and when he worships stars, he still worships stars.
As one of the capitals of the Ten Regions, it goes without saying that Baixing's status among the Demon Clan goes without saying. After the battle in the Southern Region a year ago, the Demon Clan has been peacefully dormant for the past year.
Therefore, in addition to daily marching training, Bai Xing almost always stays in the mansion, listening to the guqin, studying formations, and practicing sword skills.
Not to mention leisurely enjoyment.
But at least it can afford the word "stable".
But now Bai Xing clearly feels that the stability that has been with him for a full year seems to have been suddenly and inexplicably broken.
But it was a young man who broke this stability.
A young man wearing a blue gown. This kind of clothes was very familiar to Bai Xing, and he even dreamed about it when he dreamed at night.
only…
But he never thought that the young man wearing this blue gown would appear in his mansion, and moreover, he would appear in his mansion in broad daylight.
How can this be
Baixing couldn't understand what was going on.
Has Blood Shadow City been breached
Of course this is impossible, but if Blood Shadow City had not been destroyed, how could the young man in front of him appear in his mansion so openly
You know, your mansion is in the third siege of Blood Shadow City!
This is because considering the responsibilities of Bai Xing, he must often train with the demon soldiers from the ten regions, so it was set up in the third circle.
But even so...
It is impossible for an outsider to walk in like this.
The most important thing is that this guy actually has a magic eye stuck on his forehead, a magic eye that shines with a faint purple light. A purple magic eye
What the hell!
Bai Xing really felt like he had seen a ghost at this moment. He had heard clearly that there had been no news about the guy in front of him for a year.
It's almost like disappearing from the world.
A man who disappeared for a year suddenly appeared in his mansion, and there was a purple magic eye stuck on his forehead. If this wasn't a ghost, what was it
Baixing rubbed his eyes...
Then, he found that the young man in front of him was still standing quietly on the spot, and he was also smiling towards him with an extremely bright smile.
"Fang Zhengzheng?!" Bai Xing was rarely surprised when he saw someone, but when he saw clearly the appearance of the young man in front of him, he was really surprised.
"Well, it's me." The young man nodded gently, with an indifferent look on his face.
"You... why did you come to Blood Shadow City? And, are you still in my mansion?" Bai Xing knew that he was a bit naive to ask this question now.
Because when a human walked into his mansion, the first thing he should do was to summon the guards in the mansion, and then capture the human in one fell swoop.
But…
He did not do so.
Because, he was too curious about Fang Zhengzheng, or what happened to Fang Zhengzheng this year.
Then, he can take some time to "talk".
Even though this seems like an extremely dangerous move.
"If I said I came here to see the scenery, would you believe it or not?" Fang Zhengzheng smiled, then looked at the layout of the mansion, then found a chair and sat down.
"See the scenery? Come to Blood Shadow City to see the scenery?" A glimmer of light flashed in Bai Xing's eyes, but soon, he forced himself to calm down.
"Yes, when I looked all the way here, I was originally going to take a look at the innermost part, but when I happened to pass by here, I saw the word 'Bai Fu' hanging on the door of the mansion and the 'star' below the two words. "The word, I was thinking at that time, what's the surname Bai? Does it have a star? Could it be Baidu Tong? Then, I came in, and when I saw it, oh, it really is Baidu Tong!" Fang Zhengzheng was very serious. replied.
"So that's it." Bai Xing nodded and narrowed his eyes slightly. From Fang Zhengzheng's words, he was sure that the other party really walked in from the main entrance of his mansion.
But…
Why was this guy able to walk in from the front entrance of his mansion? Could it be that the guards at the door of his mansion were blind and couldn't see the purple magic eye on this guy's forehead? (To be continued.)
