The city of Kusa is in the northeast of Uruk. The distance is not close, but it is not far either.
Just like Siduri said, the land in the northeast can basically be regarded as Ishtar's territory. Although it is adjacent to the sphere of influence of the Goddess of Warcraft, there is no conflict between the two sides.
It should be said that there is no major conflict.
Because, unlike Gorgon, Ishtar does not have many subordinates, nor does he occupy the earth. He only controls the air and flies freely in the northeastern area of Uruk, even if he sometimes sees Warcraft in his own territory. She didn't pay much attention to the raging on the territory. At most, she bombed the land when she was in a bad mood or on a whim, destroying the monsters and the terrain together.
Perhaps, precisely because of this, the number of monsters in the northeast is not that large, at least compared to the situation in the north where monsters are everywhere, it is not much better.
On the way to Kusa, Luo Zhen and Ma Xiu even saw several pastures, proving that the threat from the monsters was not that great.
Of course, even if it is not big, there is still a threat.
Luo Zhen and Ma Xiu encountered several waves of monsters. They originally thought about avoiding them, but in the end they decided to annihilate them on the spot.
This is also to reduce the number of monsters in the northeast as much as possible, so that the pastures and even cities can be less threatened.
Therefore, even though it would waste a little time, this time, Luo Zhen and Ma Xiu did not choose to go around the monsters, but directly launched an annihilation war against the monsters. Sometimes they even made special turns to eliminate the nearby group of monsters. Something about doing the utmost benevolence and justice.
Under such circumstances, even though there was a slight delay, Luo Zhen and Ma Xiu arrived in Kusa City before dark.
only...
"so quiet... "
Standing on the street of Kuza City, Mashu couldn't help but murmured in a low voice.
Luo Zhen wasn't much better.
"It seems that there is not even a single person alive in this city."
Luo Zhen looked around and confirmed this.
Through observation through the "Wisdom Eye", Luo Zhen can be sure that there is no trace of the aura of the Warcraft, let alone the human beings, in the entire Kuza City.
All the buildings are in good condition, even the shops and stalls on the roadside are still in good condition, and the various items are even neatly placed. There is no sign of chaos, but there is no one, and it seems particularly quiet, or it can be said that Dead silence.
To be honest, this situation not only makes people confused, but also makes people shudder.
Everything is obviously fine, but people are missing. This phenomenon is really chilling.
But there is nothing we can do about it.
"According to the information provided by the chief priest named Siduri, the people in Kusa should have died quietly overnight, just like the people in Uruk whose souls were taken away by the Galula spirit. One survived, right?”
Olga Marie's slightly nervous voice came from the communicator on Luo Zhen's wrist.
"All the bodies that have lost their souls have been moved to Uruk, so there is nothing here."
Da Vinci slowly took up Olga Marie's words.
"But there is not even a single magical beast. There are clearly a lot of magical reactions and biological reactions detected around Kusa, which proves that there are many magical beasts near Kusa, but none of them dare to enter Kusa. , it’s really incredible.”
Roman's tone was very serious.
Even Matthew spoke.
"I have Miss Siduli saying that half a year ago, the northern city was suddenly attacked by monsters. When various changes occurred in various places, the life in Kuza City was quietly wiped out."
Matthew said softly.
"At that time, King Gilgamesh claimed to have seen the future, so he made up his mind to carry out such nonsense as the "Summoning of Heroic Spirits", because this time, the situation does not require the power of one person."
It was only after that that Gilgamesh ordered the disintegration of the city of Babylon, and used the building materials and various resources of Babylon to build the Warcraft Front, allowing the north wall to rise from the north of Uruk.
After that, Gilgamesh sent Ushiwakamaru and Benkei to lead a team to Kuza City for a rescue mission. All they saw were the citizens of Kuza City who had lost their souls and were all quietly sleeping.
Since then, the city of Kuza has become a cursed place, not to mention humans and even monsters are unwilling to approach it.
If you think about it carefully, this is natural.
"The aroma of death here is so strong, who dares to come?"
Luo Zhen said this.
Under his observation, the entire city of Kusa was enveloped in the aroma of death that was ten times stronger than that of Uruk, turning the place into a dead city.
With such a strong aroma of death, I am afraid that even the strongest human beings will weaken to death within a few days.
Even Gorgon's monsters cannot last long in such a place.
In this case, it is a strange thing that the other party would be willing to approach this city.
If this world hadn't been different from the world of Tokyo Dark Crows, with such a strong aroma of death alone, a chain of spiritual disasters would have occurred, causing hundreds of ghosts to walk at night and destroying all living beings.
From this point of view, this is indeed what the goddess of the underworld did.
"I believe that the cold air of the underworld must be a hundred times stronger than the aroma of death on this earth. Most people will be in danger of dying just by entering it, right?"
This shows how dangerous it is to go to the underworld this time.
But Luo Zhen and Ma Xiu had to go.
The problem is just that...
"How to get to the underworld? Senior?"
Mashu asked this question.
Luo really wanted to answer.
However, before that, there is a problem that needs to be solved.
"Let's discuss this matter later." Luo Zhen curled his lips and said with a smile: "Be prepared first, Matthew, the impersonal goddess is coming."
Hearing this, Ma Xiu was startled for a moment, then his expression changed, and he immediately rushed to Luo Zhen. With a flash of inspiration in his hand, the Shield of the Round Table appeared immediately.
"The spiritual reaction has appeared!"
In Chaldea, everyone also exclaimed in surprise one after another.
Under such circumstances...
"Who is this impersonal goddess!?"
As such a fiery voice sounded, countless flashes of light hit the sky like a torrential rain.
“Bang bang bang bang bang bang—!”
In the city of Kusa, bursts of explosions rang out one after another, causing the ground to break and shatter inch by inch at the impact point of the flashing bullets, raising waves of dust with great force.
The flash of light went away as quickly as it came, causing the sand and soil to gradually disappear, revealing a messy pit that looked like it had been flattened.
Luo Zhen just stood there, not moving.
In front of him, Matthew had already set up a shield, blocking all the flashes of light just now.
Then...
"Not only do you carelessly intrude into other people's territory, but you also speak ill of the goddess behind your back. Do you really think that I am afraid of you?"
With such words, a figure on a sky boat slowly descended from the air.
It was Ishtar.
