Abnormal paradise

They were back then...

Obviously referring to the fairy tale characters heading to the inner ring, he became curious as his glass of wine grew thicker. He bumped Ember's shoulder, urging him to continue asking questions and see if the other party would keep his word.

Ember shrugged. Since the person didn't want to talk, he simply kept his mouth shut. However, this special person obviously had many secrets hidden in him. It would be a waste not to pry something out of the other person's mouth.

Since there was no way to speak, Yi Yan took another approach, bringing out some special things to try to induce the other party to take the initiative to speak.

In fact, he has done this method many times, and it works every time.

Showing the blood vine bracelet with the blood of the gardener to Little Bob, and showing the masked man the remnant soul of the witch from the movable corpse nest, all had an impact. The only thing he could think of this time was the match from the fairy tale world. I feel that since this masked man has a connection with the fairy tale world, he might have a special reaction to matches.

And the result was just as he expected, the ordinary matches attracted the attention of the masked man as soon as they appeared.

"This...where did this thing come from?"

There was a hint of trembling in the harsh voice of the masked man. Facing this ordinary match, he actually leaned to the side, seeming a little afraid, but the palm that couldn't help but reach for the match suddenly hovered, and then Showed urgency.

Such a contradictory expression made Yi Jin extremely curious, and he did not hide it and told the source truthfully.

"You actually come from the Paradise World? No wonder your dress is different from the ones I saw before! If you come from the Paradise World, it wouldn't be difficult to get the praying matches. When is it now in the Paradise World? Nine One Zero Two? Oh! It’s no wonder, after all, the time is coming. In order to continue the fairy tale world, that girl communicated with the paradise world a lot. This time she finally saw a ray of light, and she will definitely not be able to help but spend some money. "

The masked man couldn't help but sigh, and his voice became slightly less harsh: "But how can a ray of dawn illuminate the dark future of the fairy tale world? Some time ago, I felt a vibration in the restricted area of ​​​​life, which seemed to be a space collision. It just happened to tear a gap in the periphery, right? In a few days, that gap will heal, and this so-called ray of dawn will also disappear, and the restricted area of ​​​​life will once again return to its old lifeless appearance, regardless of whether it is a fairy tale world or a paradise world. No matter what, they will all usher in their own doomsday."

"Have you never thought about helping the dawn to become two or three rays, or even break through the forbidden area of ​​life? After all, if the secret of the forbidden area of ​​life can be solved, it should be a good thing for you, right?"

Ember raised his own doubts, but the masked man snorted coldly: "To put it lightly, the moment the nightmare pumpkin car was formed, I also became a derivative. I could no longer escape the restricted area of ​​life, and could not even do anything that might destroy life. Restricted behavior! Adding brightness to that little bit of sunlight will only kill me. What’s more, I don’t have that ability! Most people who had that kind of ability before are now dead. Even if someone is lucky enough to survive that day, There is only one body left..."

Although he opposed breaking the ban on life, the masked man still expressed regret: "It's too late, everything is too late. There was no chance at the beginning, and there is no chance now. One prayer match is not enough at all."

"One stick isn't enough, can two sticks work? If two sticks don't work, what about three sticks?"

The ember took out all the matches for him and the increasingly thick glass of wine, which really caused the masked man's attitude to change: "Three... are indeed enough, even a little redundant. It seems that the little girl is really serious." I have gained some capital! Could it be that there has been a change in the timeline? When the nightmare came, I didn’t find that her abilities had been weakened! Maybe the plane of the paradise world was unwilling to be doomed to destruction, and deliberately stirred up the waves to cause changes, but even if So, just having matches is still useless, you still lack... ugh! Ah!!"

The masked man who was about to say the key point suddenly trembled and screamed, which startled the other three people in the carriage. They saw endless darkness pouring over the head of the masked man. If it weren't for the masked man, Try your best to resist, and unpredictable things may happen.

During this period, the Nightmare Pumpkin Car happened to pass through the entrance of the inner ring area. The Nightmare, who was supposed to use his suppression ability to break through directly, was suddenly affected by the abnormality. Four hooved will-o'-the-wisps erupted, and wherever he passed, the flames filled the air. A large number of members of the Giant Tree Research Institute who were responsible for guarding the entrance were burned to ashes in the blink of an eye!

Such an anomaly made Yi Yan decide to put away the matches and give up questioning. Anyway, the inner circle has arrived. As long as he persists, he can always reveal the final secret. And through this conversation, his biggest gain is undoubtedly the knowledge of matches. The quantity showed that if he wanted that ray of dawn to grow stronger, he must keep at least two matches. This allowed him to use this precious prop with confidence when encountering a crisis.

At this juncture, keeping the matches would probably increase the difficulty. Besides, Yi Yan also wanted to see what was so special about the matches earlier.

In his reverie, the masked man finally returned to normal. After being punished by the life restricted area, he no longer dared to talk about the matter. He decisively guided the nightmare to stop somewhere in the inner ring area. After leaving the embers and others, he disappeared. .

"It seems that this one is still unwilling to accept it!"

As the glass of wine grew thicker, he shook his head gently, his eyes full of regret. If he was determined to live and die with the Life Forbidden Zone, the masked man would not reveal key information one after another, which would eventually lead to a sudden backlash from the Life Forbidden Zone.

"Thanks to his duplicity, we learned some important news in advance! Let's go, we have to explore the next road! Little Bob, can you see the mark left by your father?"

Li Yan raised his head and looked around, feeling completely different from the settlements in the outer ring and the floating islands in the middle ring.

Wherever he could see, he could see wide streets paved with huge bricks and stones, stone buildings that had weathered but not collapsed, and large reliefs that were still clear on the walls. These characteristics all indicate that this place was once a majestic city. Even though it has now been turned into a ruins, shrouded in darkness and spreading blood vines, Ember can still feel the majestic atmosphere coming towards him.

This is an extremely large ancient city, but according to the information obtained by wasteland explorers, it is only an inner city. According to the scale of the restricted area map, even if this ruins is located in the inner ring, its area has reached It is as big as a hundred football fields, almost the same size as the Forbidden City. I wonder how huge the complete city will be!

And this also facilitates the exploration operations of Yi Yan and others. Even if the Giant Tree Research Institute has a large number of people, as long as they are not unlucky, there should not be a sudden encounter. I can't blame the Chaos Apostle named Thorns for leaving a special signal for Little Bob. With the inner ring ruins being so huge, everyone's vision was suppressed by the dark curtain. They just stood at both ends of a long street. You can't see each other.

"let me see……"

Little Bob groaned, searching the ground with his eyes, and then said incredulously: "Someone has been here before. Look at the dead blood vines, you can vaguely see footprints! Judging from the growth rate of the blood vines re-covering, These footprints have been there for some time. I have a feeling that the ones who left these footprints should be my father and the others! Do you think the masked man is suppressed by the restricted area of ​​​​life and cannot tell directly? Those secrets chose to resist secretly, bringing us to the same place as my father."

"It makes sense! Look for it quickly!"

Hearing this, Yi Yan felt happy. The judgments of game characters are not without aim. Little Bob said this, which showed that he was at least 80% sure. After a not too difficult search, he found the burning flame again. leaves mark.

"Good luck."

Hearing that Little Bob had discovered something, Ember and the glass of wine gradually smiled at each other, giving a look that only the other could understand. At this moment, the game time is about to reach the 40th minute, and it has entered the later stage. The designer cannot let them waste time and reduce the experience without any clues. Therefore, the presence of the masked man is intentionally used to create conditions for players to quickly enter the inner ring mission.

"Okay! Without further ado, let's go find the written records first!"

After a nightmare challenge, Ember completely established his command position. Little Bob followed the instructions and followed the direction of the mark, and it didn't take long for him to discover something.

This situation is somewhat similar to when everyone first entered the floating island, and there is almost no difficulty at all. But the difference is that the inner ring ruins have more potential dangers than the floating island area. Occasionally there will be patrol guards wandering the streets. These have clearly turned into decaying zombies, but they still act according to their habits in life. The embers are estimated to be in I'm afraid there are still large groups of people stationed in some important areas, otherwise there would be no need for the Giant Tree Research Institute to mobilize so many troops.

The flame blades led everyone into a huge building that looked like an official residence. A battle had broken out here, and traces of fighting could be seen everywhere. After some searching, little Bob saw the handwriting left by his father, but the authenticity of those engraved words The meaning made his eyes change...
