Chapter 596: It's not safe to use that stuff

Everyone squeezed to the nearest porthole and looked at the scenery outside in surprise, only to see a huge shadow floating in a place less than tens of kilometers away from the flying formation, and that shadow was the Demon King City. The black city that was supposed to be parked near the southern coastline of the mainland is actually floating at the edge of the atmosphere at this moment. It is not known when it flew here.

Elizabeth squinted her eyes to look at the city, and suddenly exclaimed: "The dome shield is not open!"

Hao Ren was shocked immediately: This location is already a place with an extremely thin atmosphere, and it is only one step away from space. If the Demon King City does not open the shield, it will be the same as floating in space, and only a small part of the city residents have the ability to survive in a vacuum. ability to survive. A lightning thought flashed through everyone's mind: something happened to Demon King City? !

"Call the airship control room quickly." Yizaks said immediately, but just as he finished speaking, the door of the VIP cabin slid open without a sound, and several elf magisters rushed in: "Sun King, Demon King City Floating near the course..."

Hao Ren was stunned for a moment before realizing that the "Sun King" was referring to him, but this was not the time to entangle his name, so he hurriedly asked about the situation: "Why did the Demon King City drift to this place? Have you received the notice? "

"No, the airship had communicated with the terminal tower of Demon King City before, and everything was normal there at that time," the leading elf magister looked nervous, "Do you want to change the course and check the situation?"

Hao Ren almost jumped up: "Why don't you ask, hurry over and have a look!"

The escorting elf cruisers immediately changed course and approached the Demon King's City, and the huge airship also switched to low-speed mode after a few seconds, slowly approaching the strange black floating city. The cruiser flying at the front circled a few times a few kilometers away from the Demon King's City, sending out a series of contact signals, but there was no response.

"Why do I feel that the city is weird?" Hao Ren suddenly noticed that the outline of the Demon King's City was full of contradictions, and after reacting for a while, he realized what was going on. Illuminated by the sun, but the reflections in various parts of the city are blurred, and the edge of the city presents a strange sense of translucency. And the news from the pioneer cruiser soon confirmed his feeling. An observer reported: "It has entered the outskirts of the city. It is a phantom."

"Phantom?" Nangong Sanba was surprised when he heard the news, "Why are mirages from alien planets so advanced?"

"Don't make trouble. The mirage doesn't look like this," Wu Yue (the snake) occupied three seats by himself, huddled on the seat and hissed at her brother, "Maybe the Demon King City is researching high technology again." , is projection technology.”

Elizabeth stepped on the seat and looked at the city phantom outside: "I don't remember this kind of projection technology in the city."

The Elf cruiser cautiously entered the "city" floating on the top of the atmosphere, and circled for a while among the shadowy spiers and high-rise buildings. After actual contact, it was completely confirmed that the entire city was some kind of highly realistic image. It's just that this phantom is much more real than a mirage. Except for the sense of disobedience when the sun shines, it is almost the same as the real city—even residents can be seen on the streets of the city.

If this is a natural phenomenon, then it can only be said that Raven 12345 absolutely drank too much when he pinched this planet.

Hao Ren asked the airship and escort formation to return to the route. No matter what the situation was, they would naturally be able to figure it out after seeing La Nina.

The next journey was full acceleration, and the airship soon reached the southern coastline of the mainland. Everyone saw that the real Demon King City was docked in the offshore area as usual. The black giant city has been fixed on the coastal continental shelf, and the magisters raised a huge stone beam from the bottom of the sea to connect the city and the coastline, and at the end of the coastline of the long bridge, you can see a A small market town—some residents of Demon King City are moving to the mainland. They intend to first build the first native city on the other end of the long bridge across the sea.

It looked like everything was going on as usual, and there was absolutely no sign of any riots in the city.

Not far from Changqiao New Town is the terminal tower of the Erim Elves. Hao Ren saw a few glittering golden characters on the huge square: Demon King City North Station. Immediately, I felt that the style of the whole city was pulled down...

Y'zaks' old subordinates had long heard that the boss was visiting, and a group of "people" were waiting in the square at this time. It looked like a group of relatives and friends picking up the plane. As soon as Hao Ren and the others got off the gangway, La Nina came up to meet her, "My lord, I haven't seen you for a long time. I'm glad you came."

Elizabeth jumped up after a few swipes, grabbing La Nina's devil horn and shaking it vigorously: "There is me and me!"

"Yes, yes, there is also Her Royal Highness, whom I haven't seen for a long time..." La Nina smiled and carried Elizabeth down, and touched the little girl's decorative horns, "I am about to become a big devil on my own, and the sharp horns grow out of the seventh You can't be so coquettish after Daohuan."

Y'zaks brought his daughter back. Straightforward: "What's unusual in the city recently?"

"Business as usual," La Nina nodded. But she found that both Y'zaks and Hao Ren had very serious expressions, "What's wrong?"

"We found the phantom of the Demon King's City at the top of the atmosphere," Hao Ren briefly told the other party what he had seen before. "Haven't you guys researched something similar recently? For example, the mirage system or something..."

La Nina didn't expect the other party to mention this when they met, and she was taken aback for a moment before she realized: "No... We have been busy building new cities and developing wasteland recently, and almost all of our manpower has been spent on this."

"Is it really a natural phenomenon?" Yizaks frowned and looked at Hao Ren, "Why don't you ask the goddess?"

Hao Ren hesitated for a moment. He really didn't want to bother that crazy woman with such messy things. After all, she seemed to have a bad habit of "adding blessings to people" recently, but after hesitating, he still had to call the heavenly hotline: After all Only Raven 12345 knows the situation of this planet.

The voice of the goddess sister was as fierce as ever, and she seemed to be in a bad mood at the moment: "Which one? Fuck? Those who seek longevity don't talk about it, those who seek to get rich get out of the way, those who seek a child go to see a doctor, and those who seek world peace go back and read the Bible." Take a look... ”

Hao Ren was choked up and coughed: "Ahem, it's me... By the way, have you been bothered by praying recently?"

"Oh, Hao Ren," Raven 12345's tone finally improved, "It's okay, just two days ago, the Pope asked the Pope to hold a 'Praying for the 3,000th Anniversary of God's Incorporation' event, and was caught by those imaginative guys. Angry. Don’t tell me what’s going on here, what’s wrong with you?”

Hao Ren carefully told the other party about the vision of New Ayrim, and then asked, "Is this a natural phenomenon? Or is it an easter egg you left on this planet?"

Raven 12345 bluffed back on the spot: "Easter egg yarn, you think Genesis is a joke, the natural laws of the entire universe are the same, there are no easter eggs in this respect. Go check for yourself if there is any mess in the Demon King's City Stuff, oversized holographic projector or something. That's it, I'm hanging up."

After the communication was hung up, Hao Ren turned his head and looked at the expectant friends around him, shrugged: "It's not a natural phenomenon. The goddess suggested that we check the city."

Y'zaks frowned and thought for a long time, and suddenly remembered something, so he took the lead and walked in front: "Go, go to the power furnace."

The others quickly followed, Hao Ren asked, "Do you suspect that there is something wrong with the power furnace?"

"I am familiar with everything in the whole city, except for one thing." Y'zaks walked quickly, "The core of the power furnace is part of the remains of the eldest son, only it is unknown."

Yzaks took one step with his long legs to push the others two steps, and the little girl Elizabeth couldn't keep up with her short legs, and the little girl was in a hurry: "Dad, wait... slow down!" …”

In the end, the little girl lost her mind, and simply took out a grab hook from her pocket and threw it towards Yzaks, then dragged the rope and climbed onto her father's shoulder with ease: "Who... Dad, you walk too fast."

The way these two get along is always so unexpected.

Soon the group came to the power furnace deep underground in the Demon King City, and met the Spirit Race technician who was in charge of operating the equipment. Y'zaks interrupted the other party's salute with a wave of his hand: "Stop saluting. Is there a problem with the power furnace?"

"The power furnace is normal, but since an hour ago, its core has been releasing some kind of signal."

Everyone looked at each other in blank dismay: This is indeed a situation!

Y'zaks breathed out: "I knew it was not safe to use that thing." (To be continued~^~)
