Dominate the Treacherous Realm

　　 He is very miserable now, his right arm is slanted at an abnormal angle, and his left arm barely supports his body from falling down. The trousers on the legs seemed to have been cut by a sharp blade, and warm blood flowed out of a thin wound. By the time Jenkins arrived, it was almost forming a pool of blood.

　　 His consciousness is already a bit unconscious, and his face is full of blood. But to distinguish it from the smell, this should be the blood of those ghouls, the taste is very bad.

　　 "Mr. Hood? Oh, God, what's wrong with you?"

　　 Jenkins jumped over, and then found that Mr. Hood was subconsciously resisting, so he hurriedly said:

　　 "It's me, Mr. Candle without a cat, what's wrong with you?"

　　 His hand pressed against Mr. Hood's chest, a faint green light flashed in his palm, and Mr. Hood's weak breathing gradually stabilized.

　　 "How do you feel, can you hear me?"

　　 He asked in a low voice, Mr. Hood's life just now was like a candle in a rainstorm, but now it looks like a candle in a storm, and the treatment still cannot be stopped.

　　 "I heard...Mr. Candle, you saved me again this time...What time is it now?"

　　 Mr. Hood asked weakly, trying to sit up straight but his arms were not controlled at all.

"If you want to thank me, it's not too late to wait until you get better. Don't talk now, and feel the flow of the spirit of life carefully... It's ten o'clock on Sunday night, 13 hours ago, you and the white cat Mr. and I met, do you remember? We met at the cafe, and you were discussing the tip amount with Mr. White Cat when I went in."

　　 "Yes, it is indeed you... is it still Sunday? That's okay, it's still too late. Mr. White Cat, Mr. White Cat, he...he..."

"What's up with him?"

　　 Jenkins asked nervously, his heart hung up immediately, he didn't have many friends.

　　 "He is missing!"

"Is it missing? It’s just missing? Oh, okay, no, I mean, that’s really bad. Don’t talk now, I’ll treat you, you’re badly hurt, if you didn’t meet me, now It’s time to consider writing a last word."

　　 Today, Mr. White Cat summoned the crowd, and in the end only he and Mr. Hood participated. Miss Silver Flute could not enter the city, Jenkins went to search for the mad poet, Hathaway was going to accompany Britney, Miss Magic didn’t know what she was doing, so theoretically, if it wasn’t "just" she met Mr. Hood, Jenkins Never know what happened during the day this weekend.

　　 The remote alley is not a good place for treatment. After reluctantly helping Mr. Hood alive, Jenkins helped him to the residence of Mr. Hood in the city. Mr. Hood is a successful businessman. Although Jenkins doesn't know exactly what he is selling, this man does own a lot of real estate in Nolan.

　　 "I feel alive again."

　　Everything is settled, Mr. Hood is naked, his left arm is dangled by a bandage, and his right hand directly takes the wine glass and drank it. The wine bottle is on the small round table beside it, which is brandy. It's not that Jenkins can't cure his right hand, but that the curse on it is very peculiar. It is not restrained by the purification candle and vitality, and can only be restored by Mr. Hood himself for the time being.

　　 "It's better not to drink in your current state... So what happened? You also know that I have something to do today. I am not in Nolan. Why did it become like this when I came back?"

　　 Jenkins asked, sitting in the armchair on the other side of the coffee table.

　　 "If you tell the story carefully, I am afraid it will be tomorrow."

　　 Mr. Hood endured the pain and put down the wine glass in his hand as he spoke:

"To put it briefly, those alien species do not want to be a treasure. They are looking for a suitable place to hold a ritual to open the portal connecting the material world. Unfortunately, Mr. White Cat and I were caught in an ambush on the side. After entering this incident, I no longer remember what happened at the time. When I wake up, Mr. White Cat has disappeared, and I am also surrounded by a large number of frenzy..."

　　 The more he talked, the more frustrated he became, and he filled his glass with wine and drank it all at once, because he drank too hard and coughed.

"Are you saying that the location of the ceremony was the bank site where construction started? This is impossible. Before I found you, I went there to check the situation in advance, but apart from some suspicious blood stains, no traces of the portal were found. From In common sense, the portal should not move randomly, right?"

　　 Jenkins frowned and said, he wanted to touch his cat, but only then did he remember that the cat was still watching the door in Roon’s church room.

"Opening the portal to the outside world is not that simple. If it is really just a ritual, even ten years of preparation will not be enough. Those evil alien species have terrible knowledge from other worlds, and they have adopted a compromise The way, first connect the auxiliary space outside the material world, and then connect the outside world from that space...Well, in fact, I don't know the principles very well. Mr. Magic is best at this kind of thing."

　　 "Subsidiary space outside the material world? Do you mean..."

　　 Jenkins understood it at once.

"Yes, it's a slyland. I think the missing Mr. White Cat was probably caught in the slyland. Originally on the second floor of the bank construction site, there was an entrance to the slyland because it released too many outsiders at once. The entrance to the alien creatures that came has collapsed. But according to my experience, an unnaturally collapsed entrance will not cause problems in the sacred realm itself, so a brand new connection to that sedulous realm will definitely be generated in Nolan’s area. Entrance. The alien creatures are probably also looking for it. Once you find it, you can drag the third wave of companions to our city. Yes, there have been two waves now. The third wave of monsters may be more than the previous two waves. , And because they passed through the treacherous realm and came to the material world abnormally, I think they might be contaminated with more treacherous features...No, it is too dangerous. I will report this to the church!"

　　 He said he was about to struggle to sit up, but because of the serious injury, Jenkins pushed him back.

Chapter 1372 The first thousand three hundred and forty-nine

"Mr. Hood, you should rest at ease. I will pass this to the church. I have friends in the church. I will also leave the search for Mr. White Cat to me. If he is trapped in a treacherous situation, I think I can Entering the treacherous realm through the entrance to search for him... It is indeed dangerous, but someone has to solve the problem, and maybe the church moves faster than me."

Jenkins stopped Mr. Hood, and stood up to leave while talking, but Mr. Hood stopped him, and then staggered to the second floor. After a while, he got down from the second floor and worked one. Give him the fine wooden box.

　　 "I can't help much in my current situation. Take this with you. I think it will be useful."

"what is this?"

　　 Jenkins opened the box and saw a ticket that was familiar.

"B-11-5-2305 [Ticket to go home], this is one of the few items that can take people out of the treacherous realm. Compared with the same well-known [Mr. Prank’s toy ticket], this ticket is completely It’s harmless. Although there is only one, I think it would be helpful to rescue Mr. White Cat.”

　　 "It definitely helps."

　　 Jenkins said in surprise, he didn't expect Mr. Hood to have this kind of item, which is very rare.

"If you can find Mr. White Cat, remember to confirm if there is [Magical Conch] on him. He takes the conch on his body for emergencies, so I think he should be able to hold it now. When you find him If he still has that thing, then with this ferry ticket, the possibility that you can all come back smoothly increases greatly. I will be here waiting for you to come back, Mr. Candle, today’s matter..."

　　 He sighed and raised his glass to Jenkins:

　　 "We were too careless. I didn't expect it to be like this. I wish everything the best!"

　　 Leaving Mr. Hood's house, he immediately returned to Ruen, and then contacted Nolan from Ruen, using his own divination as an excuse to truthfully report the news he heard from Mr. Hood to Miss Bevana.

　　 Although Miss Bevanna was surprised that Jenkins's "divination" could be so accurate, she was only surprised that Jenkins had such a high talent for divination because Miss Audrey had guaranteed Jenkins the whole time.

　　Although the church started to act, Jenkins didn't have everything to wait for news. After handling the church's affairs, he returned to Dolores’ manor in the church’s carriage, and roughly talked to the girls who were waiting for him about what had happened, and asked them to rest, and then came again with the cat. Nolan.

　　 Now that he got the ticket from Mr. Hood, there is no danger even if he enters the treacherous realm to rescue Mr. White Cat, Jenkins decided to do his part.

　　 For the sake of safety, Alexia did not ask Nolan to help, but the shorter lady gave Jenkins a small blue glowing square before he returned to Nolan. This is a device used to find the entrance to the treacherous realm, specially made by Alexia.

　　 Although you may encounter some problems with it, it is better than Jenkins wandering around the city and trying his luck.

　　 It is almost early morning, and the city is silent, only the lights on the street are still swaying. The number of teams patrolling in the city has increased unabated compared to that in the evening, probably because of the information provided by Jenkins. Now every ordinary person team will be equipped with a gifter. After all, ordinary people have difficulty even if they encounter the entrance to the sacred. see.

Jenkins rode a unicorn with a cat flying in the sky and decided to search in order from east to west, but his luck was not good. When the bell rang at zero, he accidentally entered the doomsday fantasy. .

　　 Sometimes people’s luck is so bad. Jenkins strayed into the doomsday illusion at such an urgent juncture, which is the best example of it.

　　 Just now, the unicorns originally carried him flying at low altitude. After entering this declining doomsday world, because of the world’s own no-air rules, they could only fall slowly and land on the roofs of other people’s homes.

　　 Looking at the huge yellow moon in the original place, it seemed as if it had fallen on the horizon. Jenkins took a look and then moved his gaze away to prevent him from turning into a lunatic after watching it for a long time.

　　 He let the unicorn leave first, and looked at the doomsday scenery with the cat for a while thinking about his next plan. He can actually use [Real Phantom] to go out immediately, but the problem is that the cat can't. It is absolutely impossible for Jenkins to leave the chocolate alone in this dangerous place, so after waiting for a while without any sign of returning to reality, he climbed into the building from the window and walked towards the clock tower in the city center.

　　 This is the city of Nolan, where a variety of past apocalypses are mixed. Among them, the weakest and most numerous monsters are the kind of weird creatures, good at melee combat, and will become soot and dissipate after death. The power of this monster is incredible, and the defense of the skin fused with clothing is stronger than the special steel plates used by the military to make weapons.

　　The best way to fight against this kind of creatures is to use magic attacks remotely. Unfortunately, in the perilous doomsday world, this kind of magic often attracts more monsters.

　　 So Jenkins will only fight with these monsters in close combat, specifically, they are hacking each other with weapons. Jenkins believes that her swordsmanship will definitely make great progress after this incident. After returning to Nolan, if she continues with Miss Bevana's fighting course, she will definitely admire herself.

Jenkins also thought of looking for traces of the mad poet in this world, but not long ago he guessed that the brave who killed the mad poet is likely to succeed in the ascension, which means that the era did not end with the doomsday, so this The world can't find a clue to the fifteenth era.

　　 As for the reason why this world is always in the dark, I learned it before the final duel with the Titans. This represents the final end of the era when the ancient Titans disappeared, that is, the fire-free era when the sun disappeared below the horizon.

　　 As for other doomsday visions other than the soot monster and the disappearing sun, Jenkins can barely guess that the yellow moon represents the primitive moon in the material world that has long since disappeared. According to legend, the moon was eaten by the civet that swallowed the moon, and the moon-swallowing civet, like ouroboros, scarlet floating, etc., are the beasts of calamity that will appear at the end of each epoch, and the embodiment of all the sins of that era. .

　　 Of course something similar will appear at the end of the Eighteenth Epoch, but Jenkins can't guess what it will be.

　　 Fighting with the monsters all the way, occasionally had to detour to avoid. When I arrived at the clock tower in the city center, it was already half an hour later. He climbed up out of breath, and the old man was still in his original position. He opened his palm to Jenkins to expose his mouth, and asked a question that surprised Jenkins:

　　 "The day before yesterday, what did you do to this world?"

Chapter 1373 Chapter 1350 Mistakes

　　 "Hmm...what do you mean? What did I do to this world? No, I did nothing."

　　 Just hearing this question, Jenkins was very at a loss.

"There is no normal sunset or sunrise in this world, so I can't judge the specific time, but about two days ago, you suddenly appeared and took away most of the bones in this city. You will not forget about this, right? ?"

　　 asked the old man's palm.

　　 "This matter...you are not asking me to return those useless bones? If I remember correctly, you are not the master here."

　　 he said hesitantly.

"Naturally, I will not do such boring things. I just want to warn you, because you have carried too much material from this world to the material world, which has accelerated the connection between the two cities, so the speed of the doomsday fusion of reality has become more Soon. If my feeling is not wrong, since two days ago, more people have been unintentionally drawn into this world. If you want to save all of this, you must speed up."

　　 "If I return those bones now, can I stop this acceleration process?"

　　 Jenkins asked a stupid question.

"Frequent exchange of materials will only make the integration process faster, and will cause more serious changes in this doomsday city. Remember, this is a city made up of multiple past doomsdays, and it was just barely maintained. The fragile balance, any changes in matter and energy, will cause unknowable consequences. If you want to continue our cooperation, you must be careful when entering and leaving here recently..."

　　 The old man only said this, and then told Jenkins the location and method of the next ceremony and the location of the monster materials he needed. He seems to know everything about this world, every time he tells Jenkins the location of the monster is extremely accurate, as if standing on this clock tower, he can know all the things in the doomsday city.

　　 "There is one thing I want to ask, how many of those people who entered the treacherous realm have successfully gone out?"

　　 Jenkins asked before leaving. The old man didn’t speak for a long time. Jenkins thought he was unwilling to answer, so he turned around and prepared to leave. He didn’t expect that he still told Jenkins the answer:

　　 "A total of six people entered the treacherous state, and three died here."

　　 Miss Yindi told Jenkins that a total of six people had entered the slyland, so besides her, two people escaped from the slyland, which surprised Jenkins. At the same time, when he climbed the bell tower for the first time, he once found a corpse on the stairs, which means that there should be corpses from the real world lying in two corners of the city.

　　 But these things have nothing to do with him for the time being. Taking advantage of Nolan who entered the doomsday this time, he seized the time to kill the monsters that needed to be hunted. The time card was very good. When the scales were cut off from the front paws of the lizard whose body was translucent and could move freely within thirty feet, the bright yellow moonlight disappeared on the top of the head.

　　 Looking around again, it is already Nolan's quiet night here.

　　 "Very well, I don't know if the church has found the entrance to that eccentric place in these two hours."

　　 He thought this way, and after a few minutes came to the conclusion that the church had apparently not found it yet. Because when he was struggling to climb the roof of the nearby building with the cat, he clearly saw two blocks away, two gifters were fighting a huge frenzy.

　　 Ordinary soldiers blocked the intersection with guns. In the battle with this monster that can easily disturb the minds of ordinary people, soldiers will only become the targets of manipulation.

　　 "A new alien creature has appeared again? It seems that I will be faster, otherwise there will only be more and more monsters running into the city."

　　 As the most important port metropolis on the west coast, Nolan City can be called an urban area, no smaller than any city in the Jenkins world. So even if there is a guidepost given by Alexia, it is not a simple problem to quickly find the entrance to the treacherous realm that may be hidden in any corner.

　　 Because his cat’s luck has always been very good, Jenkins even wanted chocolate to try his luck. But the chocolate refused to cooperate this time. It probably saw that Jenkins didn't plan to rest tonight, so it slipped into the inner pocket of Jenkins's jacket and refused to say anything.

　　 "If I find a slyland, I will definitely enter the adventure, and I won't be able to take you with me then. Chocolate, why don't you go back to Luen to sleep first?"

　　 Cat of course would not agree.

　　 Alexia’s small cube is very sensitive, but it is not accurate enough. When standing at the top of the city clock tower, it marked the place that might be the entrance to the treacherous world. It was not until Jenkins arrived in the barn near the outskirts of the city that there was nothing.

　　 Close inspection revealed that there is a dark room under a pile of straw, but nothing in the dark room has aura. Jenkins looked through the letters hidden in the cracks of the bookshelf when he was curious, and found that although they were all letters, the letters were pieced together into meaningless words. Only then did he understand that the letter was encrypted by a password.

　　 "Although there are secrets hidden here, it is obviously not here."

　　 He thought a little disappointed, and then returned all the letters to their original places. When I extinguished the candle in my hand and tried to climb back to the ground, I heard someone push open the barn door.

　　 "Damn it!"

　　 cursed secretly in his heart, and looked behind him. There was no place to hide in the small dark room. He blinked again to make sure that it was an ordinary person who was going down, so he stood cautiously against the wall and stood by the ladder. When the visitor opened the trapdoor and climbed the ladder carefully to step on the ground, Jenkins squeezed the cat in his chest. The sleeping chocolate immediately let out a cry of dissatisfaction.

　　 The cat cry in such a closed environment shocked the strange man. He hurriedly searched for the source of the sound in the dark, and then happened to meet Jenkins's wide-open eyes:

　　 "There is nothing here, the meowing just now and the man now are hallucinations!"

Jenkins said quickly, the power of lies flowed to the outside world through words. The man staring at him only felt his head dizzy, and then looked back and forth at the dark room in the dark as if he had forgotten something important. The bookshelf opposite the ladder.

　　 While the power of the lie was still blurring the man’s perception, Jenkins seized the time to climb the ladder to the ground. Take out the small square in the pocket and take a look, this time it actually marked 3 different locations at the same time.

Chapter 1374 The Well and the Ice Flower

　　 "Oh, this item of Alexia is really too inaccurate."

　　 He couldn't help sighing, but considering that the divine realm cannot be fortune-telling, being able to invent such inaccurate props is a miracle in itself.

In this way, I was tossed in the night city. During this time, I ran into the young men and women who were smuggling in the carriage on the side of the road. They found that the two gifters were trading tobacco that had been listed as prohibited items, and then they found fresh on the ground at the last location. Blood stains.

　　 This means that Alexia's digital fortune-telling has completely failed. Before the small square prompted the next batch of suspected locations, Jenkins had no clues, and decided to follow the blood on the ground to see what happened here.

　　The blood stains stretched from the trash can to the deeper part of the alley, then turned to the right at the intersection, and then disappeared in front of a low wall. Jenkins climbed over the wall and found no trace. Later, he climbed up from the low wall to the roof of the one-story bungalow on the left, and found blood on the tiles.

　　 The injured man walked along the roof of this alley and jumped into the other alley when he was near the street. After repeating this three times, I have come to the so-called slums in the Xiacheng district in the east of the city.

　　 The density and quality of life here can be regarded as the worst in Nolan, and it happens to be in the low-lying area of ​​the city. Jenkins rarely came here, so he didn't know much about the alleys extending in all directions. After some tracking, he lost the traces of blood again. At this time, he didn't know where to look.

　　 "I'm wasting time again."

　　 He patted his head and took out his pocket watch to take a look. It turned out that it was past zero, and it was now one thirty.

　　 So he thought about flying to the sky again, and if he still couldn't find a trace of the entrance to the treacherous realm, he could only go back to Luen to rest first, and recharge his energy and come back tomorrow.

　　 He looked at the surroundings and couldn't tell where it was for a while. But the surrounding buildings are very low, do not go to the alleys but to the roofs of others, as long as you aim in one direction, you can leave from here sooner or later.
