Chapter 132 Welcome to Vault 71
After that, everyone encountered several more attacks, but after gradually getting used to the attack of Chaos monsters, most people could deal with these monsters with ease. After that, I don’t know if they learned enough lessons, and there are few Chaos monsters entering the order barrier to come to their troubles, but this does not mean that their test will end.
"How long will it take for us to get to our destination, Rhodes?"
Marin wiped the sweat beads on her forehead. For the noble-born mage lady, walking for such a long time was a fatal death. Not only her, but Lijie and the others next to her also showed some fatigue. What's even more fatal is that they didn't even know how long they had walked, how many minutes? How many minutes? Or hours? Marin took out her pocket watch from her arms, but she couldn't help but see that the pointer at the moment was pointing at three o'clock. Well, if she remembered correctly, the first pointer was six o'clock, and the second time was two o'clock... Have they been walking for more than ten hours?
But Rhodes' answer is even more desperate.
"have no idea."
"have no idea?"
Marlin's eyes widened, and she looked at the man walking in front of her with an incredible expression. Lijie next to her also changed her expression. Not only that, Joey behind her rolled her eyes helplessly after hearing this answer.
"Don't do this, boss, those people always have experience, ask them how it is?"
"Their answer will also be unaware of it."
Rhode waved his hand, narrowed his eyes and stared at the three guides in front of him. At this moment, they were holding the torch high and strode forward. On the torch, you could see a bright silver-white line emerging from their torch as if it was traction and entangled, and then spread forward all the way forward until it disappeared at the end of the fog of chaos. It was the Taoist mark used to guide the remaining people so that they would not lose their direction in chaos. Of course, there was no direction in chaos. On several occasions, Rhode felt as if he was moving in circles, but...
"There is no distance, no time, no everything you imagined, here is broken, and simply put. When we can reach the shelter depends on how strong our relationship with order is. If our luck is good enough, then in ten minutes we can see the gate of the shelter."
“So what if we’re not lucky enough?”
Hearing this, Anne asked excitedly. Looking at her appearance, she seemed to be eager to stay here for a while. When she heard Anne's inquiry, Rhode slowed down, turned her head and looked at the excited and curious girl, and then shrugged helplessly.
"Then it is not impossible for us to walk for a few days, or even ten days. Of course, this is calculated based on the time we can recognize. In short, the destination is there, and when we change to arrive, we will arrive. If we are not yet at the time of arrival, then we will not arrive. So whether you are walking or running, it is the same."
"The holy soul is above, this is really deadly!"
Hearing this, Joy immediately picked up his head and shouted, and the other people's expressions were extremely complicated at this moment. Since entering the Chaos Land, everything they experienced has completely overturned all the common sense and laws in their minds. How could there be such an unreasonable thing? It will naturally come when we are about to arrive. If the time is not right, then no matter how we go, we will not be able to go?
"Why should I continue to leave like this? Boss, let's take a break. Maybe we will get to our destination after sleeping?"
Joey rubbed his legs with a sad face, and then looked around. He saw that outside the barrier of order, there were dim chaotic fog everywhere. What's more, it was not as dark as many people imagined. From time to time, everyone could see dazzling light tearing the darkness, then tangled with the darkness, and finally turned into an orange glow. But soon, the glow would turn into azure or emerald green color. It can be said that this was like a group of people walking in a disco. Except for the dazzling and blurred light entangled with the black shadows that appeared from time to time, it only made people feel dazzled.
However, more often, the chaotic fog wrapped in the barrier of order presents a soft but bright, but indescribable color, which makes everyone wake up by the bright light even if they want to close their eyes and rest. It can be said that this is really a very painful experience. Although after obtaining Rhode's consent, Marlene used a small obstruction spell to weaken the light, it is still a very painful thing for many people.
"Don't worry."
And at this moment, the remnants of the leaders finally spoke.
"Here, the order is quite stable. No, it's too slow."
"Hope so."
Hearing the remnants' words, Rhode raised his brows, and then he glanced at Joey who couldn't help but complain.
"You must also continue to follow. In the order barrier, our purposeful walking is also a force of order. As long as we continue to walk with the idea of "reaching the destination", we will strengthen the power of the order barrier and reach the destination. So, keep going before complaining."
"The holy soul is above..."
Hearing Rhode's answer, Joey had completely given up. He screamed strangely, lowered his head helplessly, and followed Lando step by step. Although Lando, Mafa and others didn't say much, they could understand their thoughts when they looked at their depressed and helpless expressions.
Time passed by minute by minute. Although there was no time to speak of in chaos, Rodening could use this method to calculate. The influence of chaos is everywhere. Here, any abandonment of order will become the power of chaos, even players are no exception. Roden still clearly remembers that a unlucky player lost the concept of time after entering chaos because of carelessness. As a result, he was never able to come out of chaos again. He was directly confused by the confused flow of time, and eventually had to choose to delete the account and practice again. That was really a sad story.
The ground under everyone's feet began to reorganize and formed a solid ground, but unlike before, the ground formed this time was dry loess, no tender grass, only dry soil and rocks, and the originally flat ground suddenly had a height, extending downward obliquely. This sudden change made everyone feel excited, although they didn't know what this meant. But everyone instinctively felt that this should be a good thing.
Sure enough, until this time, the three disabled people leading the way stopped, and then they raised the order torch in their hands high. The three opened their mouths and shouted loudly as if they were shouting something. The strange and low language even shook even the air. Accompanied by the three of them, the light of the order fire pillar in their hands became brighter and dazzling. Only silver lines flew out of the flames and spread forward. They merged with the order marker that faintly disappeared in the chaotic fog in front, and then, a gust of wind whistled.
“Wow…………………”
Anne widened her eyes in surprise and looked at the scene in front of her. She saw that after the whistling wind, the chaotic fog that was originally wrapped in the barrier of order from all directions floated backwards like the wind blowing away, and everything hidden behind them emerged. As the fog faded away, the hard stone wall appeared in front of everyone. Until this time, they realized that they had walked into a cave. When they looked up, they could see the black stone wall above their heads. In front of them,
There was a smooth stone wall, and a round, thick and huge metal door embedded on the stone wall. It looked a little old, with rusty on it, and on both sides of the metal door, there were two torches of the same order. With the arrival of the three remnants, the two torches shone a little light, and then golden light shone, forming a dense network of light, which then spread to both sides. Seeing the scene in front of him, Rhode couldn't help but raise his eyebrows.
Such pure protection of order is not something that ordinary refuges can obtain.
"Who is the visitor outside the door?"
A low, hoarse voice sounded, and when the voice was heard, the man in the lead answered.
"It's me, lord, the lost traveler returned to his hometown! I brought the guests invited by the elder!"
“………………………………………”
After listening to the man's answer, the door fell silent. After a while, only a low and harsh sound was heard. Then the ring on the round metal door began to rotate in sequence. Then, with the roar, the door slowly opened.
"Marin, Lijie, Anne."
Taking advantage of this moment, Rhodes took a few steps back and looked at the people around him seriously.
"Remember, and inform others. After entering the shelter, do not disperse, do not leave, and do not eat what others give you. Whether it is an adult or a child, or even the elderly, you must not eat it. I do not expect to see any idiot who will become a bargaining chip for blackmail. Just think that you have entered a dangerous asylum, do you understand?" said Rod, who looked at the others. "John, Mafa, you are responsible for watching others, and not allowing them to act alone, even if they are going to the toilet, do you understand?"
"Yes, sir."
Hearing Rhode's order, John and Mafa nodded quickly, and Rhode also withdrew his gaze. At this time, the door had been completely opened, and the three disabled people had already walked into it. The man in charge looked at Rhode coldly, and then made an invitation gesture to him.
“Welcome to, Seventy-one, refuge.”
Then he spoke.
Sanctuary, great miracle.
In the ancient and almost indescribable past, the five dragons of Creation transformed their bodies into the entire continent and drove out chaos. However, Chaos did not leave immediately. They kept trying to return to this world. At that time, in order to avoid the threat of chaos, the first generation of ancestors living on this continent built one shelter after another in the depths of the earth. They placed the source of the fire associated with the dragon soul body of this continent in the shelter to fight against the raging chaos. After the order was completely stable and expelled Chaos from this world, people walked out of the shelter and began to continue their lives on the earth. Those shelters were sealed up... until they opened again.
And now, Rhodes and others are walking in this historical miracle.
The shelter in front of me looks like an underground city, with a ceiling of dozens of meters high and is full of various buildings on both sides. The entire shelter looks like a cone combined by countless small squares. It is narrow, and a road that only allows two people to walk side by side is built on these square buildings, forming various roads and stairs. From a distance, it looks like a dense spider web shrouded in the city.
However, the city lacks vitality.
Marin frowned and looked around uneasy. Perhaps because it was too rare for outsiders, many residents looked at them curiously, but look at those people - the Holy Soul, after becoming a mercenary, Marin had not been to the slums. Originally, she thought that the people in the slums were already pitiful, but compared with the disabled people in front of her, it was simply the gap between aristocrats and beggars! Almost all of these disabled people were pale and thin, skinny, and most of them didn't even have clothes, just wearing a few old rags. Everyone was unkempt, and both adults and children were almost naked. Because of this, the neatly dressed Marin and others were considered to be among the strangers.
Not only that, the stench that soared into the sky in the whole city is also unbearable. Not to mention Marlene and Lijie, even Anne wrinkled her nose. As for Joey and others, they were not much better. If they could, they really wanted to cover their mouths and noses so that the disgusting breath would be a little far away from them, but the problem was......
"Boss is really good..."
Looking at Rhode who was silent with fear and walking in front of him with his hands behind his back, Joey sighed privately, and when he heard his words, Lando and Thor next to him nodded. They were not from good origins. Not to mention Joey and Lando, Thor, as a semi-demon, naturally lived a lot of hard life. But even they couldn't stand the stench, but Rhode was still able to remain calm and even frown. This made everyone exclaim, and even Souther looked at Rhode differently at this moment. No matter what, in their opinion, Rhode was a noble child, and he didn't expect that he could tolerate these things more than himself. Since the boss was like this, their subordinates naturally could not wipe out the boss's face, so they could only endure it no matter how uncomfortable they were.
Perhaps because everyone was fully armed, although they were watched by many people along the way, no one dared to stop them. On the contrary, when everyone's eyes swept over, the disabled people retreated like terrified animals, as if Rhodes and others were some terrible devil beasts, and they would eat them at a glance.
"It's so pitiful..."
Lijie looked at the ragged disabled people and sighed involuntarily. She shook her head, feeling extremely complicated in her heart. In fact, Lijie was not very clear about why Rhode had to look for a fire. It was not until Marlene's explanation that she understood the relationship between the fire and the shelter and the disabled people. In other words, did the ancestors of these people who seemed poorer than beggars live on the ground hundreds of years ago? They just escaped here to avoid chaos, but now... I'm afraid no one could have thought that they would live such a life.
Under the leadership of the remnants of the people, Rhodes and others walked through the hovering stairs, then came to the highest point of the shelter, which was a triangle, looking as high as three stories. The man came to the tower and knocked on the stone door in front of him. With the sound of "rumbling", the stone door gradually opened. Then, the man turned his head and looked at Rhodes.
"The elders are inside, you......"
"I'll just go see him alone."
Understanding the other party's subtext, Rhode interrupted his coldly, then turned his head and after glanced at his subordinates, he turned his eyes to someone standing at the back.
"Seven Loves."
"Ah, I'm here, master, is there anything wrong?"
"They'll leave it to you."
"I understand, please leave it to me with confidence. I promise you that you will never let these fools do stupid things."
"very good."
After receiving Qi Lian's answer, Rhode nodded with satisfaction, then he turned around and walked into the stone tower in front of him.
The thick stone door closed behind him, and Rhode slowly walked forward, dark, gloomy green light emerged from both sides of the wall, illuminating the originally dark passage, but Rhode did not relax. Instead, he narrowed his eyes, drooped his right hand, and stared quietly ahead. At the moment he walked into the tower, Rhode noticed a cold breath locking him. It was obvious that the other party was also a person entering the legendary realm, otherwise he would not have such power. However,...........................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................
"snort."
Rhode narrowed his eyes and snorted coldly. In just a moment, the soul power as sharp as a sword suddenly burst out on him, and the aura that had originally locked him completely collapsed at this moment, followed by a series of rapid coughs, echoing in the corridor. After a while, an old voice rang out.
"Young man, would you be doing this too much?"
"I'm sorry, I don't think so."
Rhodes remained expressionless when he heard the other party's words.
"Before complaining, think about whether your approach is appropriate. Although I am a guest and it is inconvenient to complain about anything, I still have to say that I don't like the feeling of being spied in secret, especially the guy is so blatant. I think, will you give me an explanation? Otherwise, depending on the situation, I may not necessarily respond to you, including the disabled people outside."
“Hahaha…………”
Hearing Rhode's answer, the old voice not only did not get angry, but laughed.
"You can see that you know us very well, young people. I think we can have a good talk and come in..."
With this sentence, the stone slabs in the corridor in front of Rhode began to move in an interlaced manner. Soon, a secret door emerged from it, and then slowly opened. A dazzling, bright and soft candlelight appeared from it. Seeing the scene in front of him, Rhode raised his brow, stretched out his hand, and opened the secret door in front of him.
Chapter completed!
