Strange Era: An exclusive talent every month

This familiar scene immediately caught Chen Ye's attention.

"It's that whirlpool..."

Chen Ye's eyes moved slightly, recalling that this was not the first time he had seen this vortex.

The first time I saw it, it was directly above the Lieyang Church...

Now, this vortex has appeared in the underground world, and it is getting closer and closer.

It is no longer looking from afar, but it feels closer and closer, showing a substantial trend.

now.

Chen Ye took a deep breath and said secretly: "The ritual... is actually related to the passage of time. This operation may have unimaginable dangers."

"It's a pity. It would be better if it could be used for divination."

"But now I am appearing in the queue as a witch, and there is no extra space for me to use for divination."

"never mind……"

"When it comes to this level, even if you use [fate] divination methods, you may only get an interfered result, which has no substantive meaning."

What's more, Chen Ye knew that his [Destiny] sequence profession was not very high, it was just his second turn.

But the level he is involved in is almost reaching the authority of gods.

Even if it has similar features, it is difficult to use it!

We can only see if it can be hard-topped.

Under the sky shrouded in gray fog, the witch's ship stopped in a narrow strait.

Right in front of the chaotic rocks, there happens to be a tunnel that leads to somewhere.

"Get off the boat."

[Lord of the Night] and [Instigating Witch] walked at the front of the team, followed closely by the leader witch and the white-robed witch, and then, Chen Ye and other witches divided the team into three people walking in parallel, winding like a long dragon. A winding formation of snakes crawled towards the entrance of the cave.

After arriving here, Chen Ye suddenly noticed the smell nearby, giving him a sense of familiarity.

It's like I've been to this place before.

After passing through the corridor...

Under the sky filled with gray fog, factories stood like tall towers. Black smoke was emitting from the chimneys, rising continuously, as if they merged with the gray-based sky, like a chaotic space. .

【Aranu Factory】

Chen Ye's eyes suddenly moved and he recognized the area in front of him.

Before the underground world was completely opened, in order to investigate the thugs' 20 million-dollar transaction, Chen Ye took the lead and came to the underground world. While exploring around, he found the entrance to the [Desolate Slave Factory].

At that time, with the help of the Eye of Luck, Chen Ye saw that this area lurked extremely dangerous existences.

Unexpectedly, this [Desolate Slave Factory] actually hides the entrance to the "River of Time". Is it related to his promotion to the fourth rank?

Chen Ye once again felt that his experience was guided by some kind of "destiny"...

Every place you visit is not without origin.

"So……"

"When I return to the alleys of Xining in the future, will the nearby Yong'an Market also have a different space?"

"Maybe it leads somewhere?"

Chen Ye took a deep breath and made some guesses in his mind.

It's almost like the "Hakoniwa Game" I played before. It seems to be a space where newbies arrive, but is it actually the place where the final big boss appears?

Many games seem to follow similar routines.

So.

Chen Ye tried to analyze how he went to the alleys of Xining, met an old erhu man, and learned cooking skills from an old woman selling chestnuts, and how this would be related to this "destiny"...

Like a key, you need to find the corresponding door and unlock the answer.

"Perhaps... interpreting fate is also part of the strategy for this city of destiny?"

Suddenly, Chen Ye recalled the tone and emotion used by the old man Erhu when he mentioned the term "City of Destiny", which contained some strong feelings.

Now that I think about it, did he predict everything and know something?

Thoughts are flying...

Chen Ye followed the large army and arrived at the entrance of [Huangnu Factory].

This gray land is covered with the remains of ancient relics. Various steel panels, water pipes made of fine steel, and inexplicable debris are scattered everywhere, making it very chaotic.

An aura of desolation came to my face.

"Everyone is following closely."

[Lord of the Night] waved his hand, and a ripple like a water curtain spread in all directions, wrapping up the entire team and said:

"When you go in later, stay here. Don't go out. Do you understand?"

All the witches turned pale and said nothing...

They saw the inside of the factory, and accidentally a gray shadow flashed past.

"What is that..." A witch whispered with a pale face.

However, the surrounding witches did not respond to this sentence. They were obviously frightened. They still had the courage to respond to this sentence. They just walked with their heads down and said nothing, for fear of alarming those gray figures who would come over to ask for them. Take his own life.

Originally, these gray shadows, flickering and flickering, looked quite scary...

The atmosphere here is even weirder than imagined.

The aura of desolation that hit the face, combined with the surrounding scene, was inexplicably permeable.

Even veteran players with rich strategy experience can't help but feel frightened when they see this scene.

This group of witches haven't had that much experience. They just stayed in their dens and practiced spiritual power. Where have they seen such a terrifying scene?

At this moment, when I came to this place and saw the gray shadow passing by, I was almost frightened.

However……

These gray shadows only outline illusory outlines, as if they are separated from the world by a layer of curtain. They are just residual silhouettes and have not been transformed into reality.

Chen Ye observed the gray shadows with the Eye of Luck, and found that they did not show any aura of luck, but just a gray mist, which was exactly the same as their original color.

The deep blackness without disaster and the deadly bloody light looked ordinary, as if there was no threat.

Chen Ye carefully observed these gray shadows.

Their whereabouts are like silhouettes in old movies, constantly flickering in this open space.

The gray shadow was bent over, holding something in his hand and waving it around.

It seems that they are holding some kind of tools in their hands and are conducting some kind of ground collection work on this barren land.

These gray shadows appear from time to time and disappear again.

"I don't know what these things are. It seems to be of no use for the time being, but if it appears near the river of time, it can't be a useless decoration. It has no use except for viewing, right?" Chen Ye muttered a few words in his heart. .

However, since these gray shadows have no impact for the time being, just ignore them.

at this time.

The team went deeper and deeper and arrived at the gate of the factory.

At this time, the gate was surrounded by a three-meter-high wall, all made of black iron.

The cold walls give off a sense of antiquity and vicissitudes, as if they have stood for thousands of years and are immortal.

Although it doesn't seem to be very high, if you want to cross here, it feels like you are separated by the Great Wall.

The feeling is not as simple as it seems on the surface.

The [Lord of the Night] stopped here, slowly turned his head, and said in a deep voice to the witches behind him: "You guys will come in from the main entrance with me later."

"Notice!"

"It is best not to have more than ten people entering each time."

"When you hear the beep and the signal light changes to red, stop traffic immediately and stay where you are."

"understand?"

At this time, the other witches nodded in agreement.

[Night Lord] walked to the gate.

Among them, in the center of the wall is an iron gate.

The iron door seemed to be made of bronze, and the door handle was inlaid with two green-faced evil ghosts. The material was extraordinary, and it also carried the breath of time, which was shocking.

However, what is quite contradictory is that near the door handle, there is a switch that looks like an electronic machine.

There is also a card slot that seems to be used for swiping cards.

"This style of painting... seems a little wrong!" Chen Ye couldn't help but complain when he saw this card swiping machine.

The nearby ancient buildings and the ancient atmosphere made Chen Ye feel as if he had arrived at an ancient battlefield in ancient times.

But this ancient battlefield unexpectedly appears with modern technological products?

It's hard to judge this.

At this moment, [Lord of the Night] stood at the door. He took out a card made of crystal with an exquisite appearance from his pocket.

"drop!"

He went to the card slot and swiped it, and suddenly there was the sound of the door opening.

Boom! ! !

As the iron doors on both sides slowly opened, the signal light above the card slot turned green.

"You guys go over first." [Lord of the Night] said solemnly.

At this time, a leader witch walked directly in front. After passing the iron gate, she stood at the door and was responsible for commanding and guiding the way.

The remaining witches stepped in without any hesitation.

"Don't walk so fast. Pay attention to the traffic lights behind you. The countdown..."

"Ten...nine...eight..."

"Seven...six...five..."

After hearing the countdown, the witch behind immediately did not dare to walk too fast and paid attention to the time.

When the count almost reached "zero", the witch walking at the front immediately stopped.

"Didi di di di!!!"

The signal light on the card slot is red.

The witch walking at the front happened to listen to her body. She had a fearful expression on her face, a lot of cold sweat on her forehead, and she obviously felt lingering fear.

When the signal light sounded, the harsh sound seemed to have a penetrating power from the soul.

Players who hear it will involuntarily feel ringing in their ears, and their blood will surge up all over their bodies. The feeling of fear will make their adrenaline surge like crazy, as if they are about to suffocate at any time.

"fine……"

"It would be unimaginable to pass through the red light..."

"What are the rules of this damn place? Even after inserting the card slot, do you have to pass it within a limited time?"

"If we don't get there in time, will something happen?"

"What kind of rules are these? It's too weird..."

All the witches present could not help but feel frightened.

original.

If you can go through by swiping your card, this should be a very simple matter.

But this red light signal directly increases the danger level.

Although the content is very simple...

When the light is red, stop in time, listen carefully to the countdown of [Lord of the Night], and don't move forward when it's about to end, and you should be fine.

But if you pass at a red light, the death mechanism will be triggered...

This threat is like a bomb that could explode at any time.

It might be said that it's timed, but that's not necessarily true...

After all, the detonation time seems to be regular, but who knows if it will change?

Next, when the witch passed by again, her movements became a little more cautious.

Chen Ye squinted his eyes. He observed the gate with the Eyes of Destiny. There were many ethereal undead spirits wandering above.

Moreover, this door carries the aura of blood, sometimes bright, sometimes dim...

"That is to say..."

"When the blood reaches a certain level, will an alarm sound?"

"If you pass the red light, the death mechanism will be triggered..."

Chen Ye's eyes moved and he quickly saw the rules.

However, the Eye of Destiny can see the changes in the blood and light of this gate.

Every time the countdown gets closer and closer to "zero"...

The blood light directly above the iron gate will become more and more intense.

Except for the passage of time…

Chen Ye also discovered a pattern: every time a witch enters, the blood light will accumulate one layer.

Not only did the blood light become more intense, but the accumulation speed behind it also became faster.

After swiping the card, if the first witch passes...

Then, there is a high probability that nothing will happen.

At that stage, the accumulation of blood light is the slowest and the safety factor is the highest.

However, once more and more witches pass by, the blood light will not only superimpose and become thicker, but the speed will also continue to increase.

After reaching eight witches, the speed becomes very fast and unpredictable.

When I passed the tenth witch...

The expansion speed of the blood light will instantly exceed the normal reaction of human beings. If it passes through it with normal movements, the risk factor is very high.

"No wonder the [Lord of the Night] only allowed ten witches to pass through at one time. It turns out there is another reason."

"It seems...if there are more than ten, the instability factor will be too high."

"Even if you are stuck at the limit, there is still a possibility of death."

"but……"

"I have the Eye of Luck. As long as you observe the intensity of the blood light, there will basically be no problem."

"This is more accurate than the countdown reported by [Night Lord]."

Chen Ye was secretly grateful that he had the Eye of Luck. Therefore, his life and death were in his own hands. If there was any danger, he could stop in time.

If there were no Eyes of Destiny, if this [Lord of the Night]'s countdown was not so accurate and was a few beats too slow, wouldn't he be doomed?

Moreover, Chen Ye discovered that the expansion speed of blood light was unstable, sometimes fast, sometimes slow...

If this thing suddenly had some kind of mental knife, wouldn't my life be decided here?

This is not a good idea!

There was a long queue and people filed in...

And Chen Ye is getting closer and closer to the iron gate...
