Barrier of Light

"The Rhine City Mission, the Shangcheng Mission, the Beigang Mission... have all arrived in Guangming City."

"Central City, Northwest Frontier, Xiyin, and Holy City have also completed their settlement..."

"The envoys sent by the five Nagano families are also arriving one after another. It is roughly estimated that there are nearly a thousand extraordinary people coming to Guangming City this time, and this does not include those scattered people who have no power."

Chu Ling called up the data.

Her authority is greatly suppressed in the City of Light.

This place is controlled by the Church of Light, and under the will of the God of Light, she dare not touch the deep water too much.

So to be on the safe side, now she only mobilizes some basic databases.

"No information about Utuo has been found yet."

Chu Ling said slowly: "He should be here..."

Gu Shen opened his eyes from the recliner.

These days are the primary elections, and Guangming City is overcrowded. Countless people are parading and preaching on the streets. The church specially held a "Grand Holy Ceremony" for this grand ceremony. Many believers took to the streets to parade to commemorate this ceremony. ... Chu Ling has tried his best, but he still can't find Wutuo's location.

This guy seemed to disappear after landing from Southampton City.

"Guangming City is still waiting."

"What are you waiting for?"

"From the current point of view, we should wait for everyone to gather."

"The Holy Scripture has begun, and the Fire Trial has also entered the preliminary stage... everything that should come has come."

Chu Ling said in confusion: "The 'man behind the scenes' who took Wu Tuo away, if he wants to wait for you to take action, he should release this chess piece."

…

…

The West Sea is also known as the Sunset Sea.

This sea area is the last place where humans can see the sunset.

In the City of Light, because of the shroud of miracles, there is still light after sunset every day.

But this place is not covered by the miracles of Guangming City...

Therefore, here is the intersection of black and white, often showing a touch of delicate gray when night and day alternate.

"Master Yao, do you still remember me?"

Wu Tuo looked at the sick man in front of him and joked with a smile: "I thought you had forgotten me."

"How could I forget you?"

Yao Jin smiled slightly: "There are too many trivial matters in the city these days, so I just want to let those people in Dongzhou wait and be patient."

"You are not the only Dongzhou people who have suffered."

Wu Tuo smiled and said: "I'm on pins and needles in the West Sea. The [Deep Sea] link here is disabled, it's just like a secret prison."

"I've wronged you."

Yao Jin said softly: "Don't underestimate the mysterious 'behind-the-scenes man' in Dongzhou. He can usurp Hongxi Chen Lin's faith and pull out the No. 1 secret thread... This person is most likely to have a divine object such as the [Holy Book]. If it is a secret weapon cultivated by Nagano, then he must be very strong."

"That's the truth."

Wu Tuo smiled and said: "But how strong you are, you have to try to find out. This is the City of Light...can you still watch me get killed?"

"certainly."

There is a golden thread between Yao Jin's eyebrows, spreading into the sun.

He smiled and stretched out his hand, grabbing something from the golden vortex with his five fingers. He slowly raised his arm and pulled out a slender box.

"In the past few days, I went to the Great Elder to ask for a sealed artifact."

The whole body of this box is golden and extremely noble. It is engraved with a golden phoenix bird. The body of the box is simple and unpretentious, but what is certain is that it has been around for a long time. This kind of ancient utensil is often from the relics of the [Old World]. Most of what is excavated are inventions created by ancient civilizations.

The moment Utuo saw the gold box, he was stunned.

"This is... the Red Phoenix Crossbow?"

Among the five Nagano families, the power of the Miya family's bloodline is related to the mythical creature with a human face and a bird's body.

The palace family calls it [Garuda].

In Xizhou, it is called [Red Phoenix].

Utuo murmured: "You asked for the legendary artifact? Is this prepared for me?"

"What are you thinking about?"

Yao Jin smiled and said: "The real thing is under the Red Lake. It is the weapon of Lord God..."

"Although this one is not the real thing, it is carefully imitated by the temple. It uses the remaining raw materials from the original ruins and is modified on a semi-finished product. Although it cannot be fake, it can be regarded as a quasi-S-class sealed item. "

Wutuo took the gold box with both hands and felt it was very heavy.

"Is this... for me?"

He felt a little dazed and still couldn't believe it.

"Well... in order to prevent accidents, it is always good to be cautious." Yao Jin said gently: "The reason why I asked you to wait for a few more days is because taking out the [Red Phoenix Crossbow] is not a casual matter. , even with the approval of the great elder, it will take a few days to complete the process of the temple. Open it and take a look."

Wutuo quickly opened the gold box.

A golden crossbow as short as a forearm lay on the golden box.

A wisp of Wutuo's spirit rushed out, and the moment he touched the golden crossbow, the [Red Phoenix Crossbow] turned into countless streams of light and reappeared, already tied to his left arm.

"Psychic weapons..."

Uto raised his arm, feeling no change in weight.

He aimed at the distant tide.

The moment I raised my hand, my mind moved——

An extremely powerful ray of golden light shot out from the arm without any sign of accumulating power!

"boom!"

This ray of spiritual light penetrated the sea water extremely quickly and seemingly silently.

But Uto knew very well...

The damage of this crossbow.

If he is shot, the extraordinary person's body may be pierced in an instant!

"What a powerful weapon..."

He looked solemn and his face was a little pale. This weapon was very powerful, but it was difficult to use it frequently in a battle. One shot consumed a lot of his mental energy!

"This [Red Phoenix Crossbow] is extremely powerful. As long as you lock it mentally, it can be fired immediately." Yao Jin said calmly: "This is not just to save your life... Remember, no matter who the opponent is, , when the crossbow is fired, the 'breath of light' will be implanted into the opponent's body, and even if the injury is healed, the breath of light will not be eliminated."

Wu Tuo immediately understood: "Shooting a crossbow is equivalent to planting the mark of the 'City of Light'..."

"good."

Yao Jin said calmly: "At that time... there will be no escape in the sky and on the earth."

After saying this, Yao Jin smiled and said: "Next, you can leave the 'West Sea'. It doesn't matter where you go... With the methods of that person in Dongzhou, as long as you show up, he will be able to find you."

"Is it too obvious if I just show up like this?"

Uto hesitated: "This seems to be a trap obviously."

"This is a trap."

Yao Jin shook his head and said: "However, he has been trapped in the trap since the day he chased him out of Dongzhou."

This is a conspiracy.

If Dongzhou wants to kill Wutuo in Xizhou, he must seize the opportunity given by Yao Jin.

"It's just that we still have to perform some scenes well. You are not allowed to enter the city, and there will be no temple powerhouse following you. Before the 'assassin' appears, you will be alone."

Yao Jin looked directly into Wu Tuo's eyes and said: "Hide the [Red Phoenix Crossbow]... leave it to me after the assassination."

…

…

"Uto shows up!"

Chu Ling uploaded a very accurate geographical coordinate.

Gu Shen woke up from his trance.

"The [Eye of the Sky] captured his movements... He seemed to have changed his mind and stopped hiding. This time he appeared directly, first in the West City of Guangming City, and then all the way south. This action trajectory was specifically designed to pick out people with large numbers of people. place, as if afraid of not being seen..."

Gu Shen said calmly: "No one in Guangming City dares to take action. He is telling us that he is ready."

After Wutuo walked around Guangming City, he finally left the city!

The last coordinates are in a wilderness in the southern suburbs of Guangming City...

Chu Ling updated the coordinates for the last time. [Sky Eye] is sparse and it is an extremely sparsely populated place.

"Are you ready to take action?"

Gu Shen glanced at the small courtyard. Song Ci was also practicing in meditation. This guy said that he would hunt down Wu Tuo with him, and asked him to shout out when he took action.

But Gu Shen knew that he couldn't do this.

For things like killing Uto, the fewer people, the better.

Bringing Song Ci along would make it difficult to handle the follow-up.

He quietly walked out of the small courtyard and rushed towards the last updated coordinate position.

It was getting late, the sun was setting, and the city of Guangming was still shrouded in glow. The grand procession on the streets was very lively. Countless believers were reveling in the carnival. The temple was spreading rain, and people were having fun together. It was a rare celebration scene.

But once out of the city.

It is obvious that there are two worlds.

As we approach the southern suburbs, the glow of the sun gradually dissipates. The change of day and night is a natural law. To forcefully resist this law in the divine domain requires burning a large amount of extraordinary source matter.

The God of Light will not spread this "miracle" beyond the realm of God.

Then the night shrouded and everything was silent. Looking from a distance, the city that never sleeps was like a real sun, emitting countless radiance from the inside out.

…

…

The wilderness in the southern suburbs is filled with dry grass.

Wutuo found a dry mountain alone and sat cross-legged on the top of the mountain, waiting patiently.

He stayed in Guangming City for a full two hours today... Although there were countless people out on the street during the Holy Festival today, for "careful people", this stay time was enough to capture the trajectory.

Wutuo first used ancient writing to depict some simple formation patterns.

Then arrange the barrier-type sealed objects...

He knew that the other party would not catch up so quickly. According to Yao Jin, the character of the "man behind the scenes" must be stable. It must take some time to confirm that there are no ambush troops from Guangming City around before taking action.

This time can be used to prepare some "defense measures."

In this way, when the sun completely set and darkness fell, Wu Tuo completed his arrangement in the barren hills on the southern outskirts of Guangming City.

He also waited for the person he was waiting for.

The strong wind blew from the direction of the West Sea, crossing the huge Guangming City, bringing with it the residual heat of the fanatical celebration.

A figure, at some point, appeared at the foot of the mountain.

Wutuo on the top of the mountain lowered his head, just in time to see the shadows in the dark night. He raised his palm, snapped his fingers, and a ray of fire burned on the mountain...

The flames illuminated the silhouette of the shadow.

But it can't show the true face.

The man wore an "evil mask" and had a hoarse voice that sounded both angry and sad.

"Utuo, why did you betray Dongzhou?"

…
