Chapter 390: 1 jump to 10 miles
Since Ryan didn't want to talk, Anjie didn't ask.
She stood with Ryan, her eyes fixed on the direction of the footsteps.
"Boom! Boom! Boom!—"
The footsteps were getting closer and closer.
Finally, a huge black shadow emerged from the fog.
Even though the distance between the five-meter-high black shadow and them was less than five meters, Anjie could only see a faint black outline due to the dense fog.
Anjie looked at the hand that the shadow slowly stretched out towards them, her body shrank in Ryan's arms in fear, and at the same time she kept gesturing to Ryan with her eyes, "Let's just stand here like this? Don't run away? No defense? Really don't have to do anything?"
Looking at Ryan's slightly shaking head, Anjie could only stand still with her teeth clenched.
I saw that the huge black claw was getting closer and closer to them. The black claw suddenly stopped when it was about to touch Ryan and the others, and then grabbed the one who was holding Anjie's thigh. The man with the upper half of his body left.
"No! No ah ah-"
The man screamed and was captured by the monster.
An Jie watched helplessly as the man was stuffed into his mouth by the monster. His body kept struggling, and his mouth kept making piercing screams and calls for help, and finally accompanied by a horrific chewing sound, the man's misery. The screaming disappeared completely.
Seeing the shadow disappearing into the depths of the fog, Anjie couldn't bear it any longer.
She pressed her elbow against Ryan's abdomen and asked in a low voice, "What's the matter with that man?"
Anjie is definitely not a good person. She will never risk her life to save a stranger she has never known before. She doesn't care about that man being swallowed alive by some unknown monster.
All she cares about is one thing - is that man as alive as they are?
This time, Ryan didn't betray him. He explained: "It's an earthbound spirit wandering in the spirit city of the dead, unable to die or dissipate completely, and can only repeat the process of death in pain."
An Jie wondered, "Earth-bound spirit?"
Ryan nodded and said, "The souls of those who died in the spirit city of the dead cannot go to the Netherworld through the Eye of Death, nor can they be completely dissipated. They can only linger in the spirit city of the dead all the time, suffering all the time, and will never be reborn."
Seeing Anjie's fearful appearance, Ryan joked, "In a sense, this is also a kind of immortality."
"You're still joking at this time?" An Jie glanced at Ryan and said in a fearful tone, "If I really committed suicide before, wouldn't I have become like them?"
After hesitating for a while, Ryan replied, "Not everyone who dies in the spirit city of the dead will do that. Certain conditions must be met."
Listening to Ryan's uncertain answer, Anjie wondered: "How much do you know about the spirit capital of the dead? Didn't you tell me before that you don't know more about the spirit capital of the dead than me? How did you get through? After one night, you suddenly became a lot more confident?"
Ryan, who just arrived in the spiritual capital of the dead yesterday, although his words and deeds were calm, he could still see in his eyes his deep fear of the spiritual capital of the dead and his deep confusion about the future.
Why did he wake up with the confidence that he didn't care about the spirits of the dead?
From the experience so far, Ryan's mentality is not arrogant, but the confidence brought by his own strength!
So what is the reason?
What the **** happened last night while she was asleep?
What made Ryan so confident in just one night?
Could it be that……
Thinking of something, Anjie quietly distanced herself from Ryan.
Looking at Anjie's actions, Ryan knew that she had misunderstood.
He explained: "You should know about my true identity, right?"
An Jie nodded and said, "The son of the saint, Earl Taibo, is known as Ryan Albert, who is known as the first person in the Moon Deficit of the Six Nations, right?"
Ryan asked again, "Then you should know that I have a lot to do with the church, right?"
Ryan's words reminded Anjie of what happened last night.
Last night, she was surrounded by all kinds of weirdness in the hotel. One weirdness even turned into a baby and wanted to get into her belly, and half of her body got in. She could clearly feel the baby's two little hands. She touched her stomach.
When she was about to go mad with fear, she suddenly heard a holy song that seemed to come from an angel.
It was that holy song that protected her from the weirdness and let her sleep peacefully.
As for what happened to the singing, she had always wanted to know. She knew that Ryan knew, but Ryan didn't want to say that she didn't want to ask.
Hearing Ryan mention the church now, she immediately understood.
She was surprised: "You can actually sing the church's hymn?"
As a sorcerer, Ryan is so close to the church, he never thought he could even sing!
No wonder they were able to spend the night peacefully in the strange siege, no wonder Ryan was very knowledgeable in dealing with various monsters in the spirit city of the dead. It turned out that these methods came from the church.
If this is the case, many problems can be explained. After all, the church has always been very good at dealing with demons and monsters.
Ryan neither admits nor denies this.
He looked up into the distance, pointed to a clock tower several kilometers away from them, and said, "From the height of the clock tower, you should be able to overlook the entire city, and you can figure out the layout of the city of the dead."
Their purpose is to leave the spirit city of the dead, but how should they go without a map?
It is normal to find a place that is higher and overlooking the whole city.
Ryan agreed to Anjie's choice. She stared at the bell tower in the distance, which was extremely hazy due to the fog, and suggested, "How about we jump over?"
Although the bell tower is several kilometers away from them, it is very easy for a wizard of their strength to jump over.
You must know that ordinary earth cannons have a range of several hundred meters, the maximum range of the ancient red cannons is ten kilometers, and the range of slightly more advanced artillery is generally fifty or sixty kilometers.
Lane and Anjie are the best among the first-level wizards. Although they are still a little far from the humanoid nuclear bomb, it is definitely not an exaggeration to say that they are mobile missiles. It is very easy for them to jump dozens of kilometers with their feet. A vertical jump over a distance of several kilometers is as easy as eating and drinking.
Regarding the proposal to jump over, Ryan was silent for a while, and then asked back, "Do you think it's better to jump over?"
"Uh..." An Jie also knew that her proposal was stupid, but she really didn't want to walk over. Who knows what dangers will be encountered on the way?
She blinked and said, "Am I asking for your opinion?"
Ryan touched his chin and thought about it. Under Anjie's expectant gaze, he nodded and said, "Then jump over."
An Jie said in disbelief, "Really?"
Ryan responded to Anjie's words with practical actions.
He took Anjie's hand and kicked his feet **** the ground.
"Boom!"
The marble floor with a radius of tens of meters below their feet suddenly split apart, and the two of them also leaped high into the sky with this huge reaction force, and flew towards the clock tower several kilometers away.
"Hu, hu, hu-"
The cold wind blew past them, making their clothes rattle.
In the process of flying in midair, An Jie looked down at the street below.
She saw a huge meat ball with a diameter of tens of meters, composed of people who were constantly struggling and screaming, rolling on the street.
She saw a monster that seemed to be formed of thick fog waving hundreds or thousands of tentacles, each of which was tied with a delicate and beautiful girl.
She saw a gully on the ground that was hundreds of meters wide and stretched for an unknown number of kilometers, blocking their way to the bell tower, and there was a scalp-tingling roar in the depths of the gully.
she saw...
It is only a few kilometers away, but it is full of danger.
If they hadn't jumped to the bell tower, how much danger and how much time would they have to go through!
If the ground is so dangerous, is there no danger in the air?
Anjie noticed that a group of dark shadows were flying towards them with flapping wings. Judging from the sound of "quack", they should be crows, and coincidentally, she knew that kind of crows.
Those unidentified monsters are named - Resentful Bone Crow!
The Resentful Bone Crow is an unidentified beast with half of its body rotting to reveal its bones, feeding on resentment and living on curses.
The existence of the Resentful Bone Crow itself is a curse. As long as it is touched by the Resentful Bone Crow, even a first-level wizard will most likely die from hatred, not to mention that there are thousands of them here.
As an extremely powerful and rare curse-type beast, the Bone Crow is the favorite of curse-type wizards, and every Bone Crow can sell for sky-high prices in the market.
It is usually difficult to find one, but there are tens of thousands here!
But looking at the grumpy crows approaching them, An Jie didn't have the thought of "making a fortune this time" at all, but was so frightened that her heart almost stopped.
Absolutely can't let those grumpy crows get close!
Her hands exude a dazzling magic radiance - the hand of blood talent!
The gust of wind around her was brought to life and consciousness by her energized hand, and she commanded the gust to accelerate them while driving the gust to attack the approaching crows.
But her gust of wind can only slow down the speed of the Grudge Crow a little, and the Grudge Crow's flight speed is much faster than theirs!
Seeing the dense number of Resentful Crows blocking their path, Anjie hurriedly asked Ryan for help, "Just think of a way! Didn't you even kill those undead monsters before? Deal with these Resentful Crows. Surely it's easy?"
However, Ryan's face became extremely solemn, and he said solemnly: "The Resentful Crows are magical beasts, and the methods I used to deal with resentful spirits are useless to them!"
Soul power can directly attack the soul, but different objects have different effects.
Because the resentful spirit is dead and the soul is directly exposed to the air, it is very easy to deal with.
The souls of living beings are hidden in the depths of the body, and the difficulty of using soul power to directly attack the opponent's soul increases by dozens or hundreds of times.
more importantly--
There are too many Bone Crows!
His previous obsession with pacifying a resentful spirit almost exhausted his soul power~www.wuxiaspot.com~ Now facing tens of thousands of resentful crows?
Even if the Resentful Bone Crow remained motionless in midair, and let him use his soul power to attack without resisting, with his little soul power, even if he was exhausted, he would not be able to deal with so many Resentful Bone Crows!
The strength of a single Resentful Bone Crow itself is very strong, and now there are tens of thousands around them, and more importantly, both he and Anjie are in extremely poor condition.
Because they have not eaten, drank and been afraid since entering the spirit city of the dead, their condition is much worse than when they first came to the spirit city of the dead.
Today's Ryan can only exert half of his strength, and Anjie can't even exert one-tenth of his strength.
Let them fight so many Bone Crows and they will die horribly!
Could it be that they finally survived from those strange and terrifying resentful spirits that even fourth-level wizards felt troubled by, but ended up dying at the hands of beasts?
Don't be so sarcastic!
