Even though Little Grape had just activated the second ancient corpse, when he vaguely saw the unknown city lord between the high towers, his survival instinct made him stop spying and he only sent a partial picture to William.
It is certain that there is a silver-haired rat man lying in the tower.
Because I only took a glance, I couldn't confirm the opponent's level, couldn't confirm his specific form, and couldn't even tell whether he was dead or alive.
However, the picture provided by Little Grape reveals an important message.
"A hint of darkness flashed across Wushen's eyes. Was it possible that the abyss matter was stored in the body of this city lord? That basically proved that this city lord who survived from the ancient times was still alive, at least still breathing.
When dealing with the Green Prime Minister Dugar before, the guy was directly abandoned by the Abyss in despair. And judging from the situation of the entire Rat City, the Abyss also specifically infects ratmen above the open source level.
The Abyss, which radiates the area, is a being with independent consciousness and is even intelligent.
If the individual dies, and remains dead for a long time, the abyss will not continue to remain in the other."
Upon hearing this, Jin directly made a two-finger gesture, "Yeah! I knew he was not dead... Otherwise, why would there be such a strong sense of oppression, let's go! I'll score the goal, William, you have to be ready to show your strongest posture.
I heard that you fought with other Tumor Knights before, so you should have no problem here."
King Kong was about to step forward but was stopped by William. "King, do as we agreed... Before you judge that the other party is completely out of control, I will take charge of everything."
In the past, if William had directly stopped Jin's actions like this, he would most likely have been chopped down, but now things are different.
"Okay~ behave well."
Jin had her hands behind her back, a compromising attitude that was only reserved for her only good friend.
Darkmoon Tower
This tower, which was built in ancient times and was used by the city lord to watch the moon, has only one gate at the bottom.
There are stairs in front of the tower's main entrance, leading visitors to the circular stone gate.
In addition to the dark stone mined from the mine, the circular stone gate is also decorated with jade stars on the surface, which means the night sky. This means that when you enter the tower, you have already taken a step towards the sky, and you can calm down and continue to climb the moon.
Climb up the stairs,
When William stepped onto the last step and put his hand against the unique round door in front of him, he suddenly thought of something.
No means of opening the door were used, but instead the person backed away, slowly moving backwards down the steps... until all the steps were gone and he was back on the ground.
At this time, William actually chose to sit on the ground.
I looked up along the angle of the stairs and stared at the gate.
The field of vision gradually focused and filtered out everything except the gate. With the help of the real illusion given by the epileptic brain, the round gate was completely seen as the night sky.
Stargazing
William's child's hole also began to appear with star-like spots, and the birth hole in his abdomen covered by his clothes also began to flow with drops of platinum blood.
These bloods do not follow the conventional laws of physics, nor do they fall with gravity. Instead, they rotate in a regular pattern around the birthstone. If the trajectory of the movement can be recorded, it will be found that these droplets actually follow Kepler's third law.
William, as an observer, just stared at the round door quietly.
Suddenly, he seemed to feel something and stretched out his hands, with his thumbs and index fingers pinched together, and he actually had a feeling of "picking stars".
As you pinch your fingers and move your arms,
The round door between the steps actually began to rotate, and the jade inlaid on the door also began to change position.
"William, not bad~"
Jin calmed down for a rare moment, sat half a meter away, and quietly observed William's operations.
She could feel that this was not simply teleportation. There was no transmission of mental power between William and the round door, and there was no medium to undertake this process.
The round door made a loud noise when it turned, and a curious rat man was attracted over.
Soon, the rumor that someone was opening the Darkmoon Tower spread throughout Rat City, and more and more rats came from the streets and alleys.
They couldn't believe that the gate of this tower, which had been completely closed since they were born and no one had ever been able to open it, and even the acting city lord couldn't move it at all, was actually being gradually opened.
Keith Whitetooth, who was responsible for guiding William, also came here.
He was very glad to be able to lead such a person. Like the other ratmen gathered here, he knelt down in the most pious posture, with his forehead touching the ground, quietly waiting for the moment when the door would open.
Half an hour passed.
The round gate rotates countless times to coordinate with the changes in the position of the jade, and finally all the jade is gathered in the middle of the gate, like a dazzling full moon.
“Done!”
William stood up and moved his cervical vertebrae at the same time.
Rumble! The door rotated inward and sank to the ground, and the passage leading to the interior of the tower opened.
Because it had been closed for too long, even when the stone door was fully opened, there was still a thick foggy door at the door that exuded an ancient atmosphere and had a grayish-white color.
The mist spread along the stairs like flowing water, as if dragging everyone under the steps back to ancient times.
"Jin, Thirteen, let's go."
William didn't hesitate at all. He adjusted his tie with one hand and stepped onto the stairs again with his suitcase in the other.
When he was about to step into the fog gate, he turned back deliberately.
An aura was released to wake up all the rat people kneeling on the ground, and then a compulsory order was given through the epileptic brain to let these rat people leave quickly. He didn't know what would happen next. The worst case scenario might lead to the destruction of the entire Rat City.
Buzz!
After stepping through the fog gate, there was a brief ringing in the ears, followed by darkness and silence.
There is no unnecessary design inside the tower, only a spiral staircase extending upwards with an almost endless path.
However, in the current situation, there was no need to go up the spiral staircase, because the 'city lord' they were looking for was lying in front of them, at the lowest end of the tower, at the beginning of the spiral staircase.
“So big!”
If the size of a ratman is similar to that of a human, then the ratman slumped against the wall in front of me is about 3 to 4 times the size of a normal human.
Not only is he huge, but apart from his hair and rat head, the city lord's body shape is also quite perfect.
The silver-white hair on its body did not fall off due to the passage of time, not even a single strand of it fell to the ground. It remained soft and resilient, and even had a slight silver glow.
Since it had been in this position for too long, the giant rat's body had already stuck to the wall.
Such a ratman embedded in the cracks of the wall and the ground gave William a great sense of danger even though he could not feel any signs of life.
After a brief observation, the most striking feature of the city lord was discovered - "an exaggerated wound across the face", which should be an injury caused by participating in the war.
Just as William tried to get closer to see if the wound had hurt his brain,
An arm equipped with soft armor reached out and grabbed William's shoulder, and in a blink of an eye William was behind Jin.
"Something bad is coming out."
hiss~
Dense, hair-like tentacles crawled out from the wound on the city lord's face. Instead of attacking the two people, they weaved a unique abyss mask that covered the entire rat face.
William, who had killed the hotel owner and the green chancellor, could tell at a glance that the nature of the 'Abyss' was completely different.
If the Abyss gave a spoonful to the acting city lord Dugar, then the amount given to the real city lord in front of him was a whole bottle, and it was a large bottle of one liter.
"Jin, give me a minute! If it doesn't work, let's kill this rat together."
