The Death Knell

With the cooperation of the Magic Prince, the sun and moon in the sky of Maia are chasing each other like a merry-go-round, but no one will ever catch up with the other.

Sometimes the city is shrouded in blood moon, and sometimes it shines brightly. No one has ever seen the sun and moon rotate so quickly.

Whenever night falls and the moon rises, the monster army will rise from the ground.

And when they had just gathered and wanted to attack the city, the sun suddenly appeared again, and these monsters seemed to evaporate and dissipate in the sunlight.

Black, white, black, white, black...

Su Ming asked Monaco to repeat it dozens of times. It was estimated that all the plant biological clocks in the dimension were almost broken, and then the sunlight was stopped at noon again.

None of this involves time, it's just a simple matter of replacing the sun at night.

Although it seems a bit nonsensical, he has been observing your situation under the city wall. He found that no matter how many times, monsters always emerged from the ground, like mushrooms in the forest after rain.

Secondly, no matter how many times it is repeated, the monsters that appear next time are not reduced at all, and even become stronger and stronger.

From the beginning there were only skeleton soldiers and sporadic large monsters, to later the giant dragons and monsters that covered the sky, the opponent was constantly evolving.

Monaco cast spells too frequently, and now he couldn't bear it anymore. He lay leaning against the arrow stack and cried silently. Even if someone as foul-smelling as Wade slept next to him, he didn't even bother to push him away.

Yes, because Wade was never given a chance to experiment with his new invention, he was so bored that he fell asleep.

"Xiao Zha, what do you think is underground in Maia?"

Su Ming looked at the monster army retreating and evaporating under the sun, and asked the mage beside him for advice. He probably has a guess, but he still needs professionals to help confirm it.

Zatanna was a little awkward about calling him such an intimate name, but she didn't say anything more and answered the question: "The sky in Maia is infinitely high, so logically speaking, the underground should also be infinitely thick soil, right? "

Su Ming nodded noncommittally: "Barry, go bring Bobo."

"Okay, here we come." A red light flashed, and the drunk orangutan was placed in Su Ming's arms.

Presumably Bobo drank some more alone after everyone separated. His face was now dark and red, and his eyes were hazy: "Oh, why are you looking for me again? Don't let me go to the front line."

"Bobo, I have a few questions. You and Jim have been to Maia before, and you know something about the geography here. So, is there an ocean in this world, or in this dimension?"

The mercenaries put the orangutan on the ground.

"Hiccup, no." Although Bobo was drunk, his mind was still clear. He belched a belch full of rotten smell, and then quickly replied: "There is no ocean or river in Maia. The last time you saw Weiwei An’s lake is the largest body of water in this dimension, and she used fairy magic to create it.”

"Madam Xanadu and Invincible Ibis are over there now, right?" Su Ming asked again.

"Yes, you know, the Lake Fairy is also good at healing magic. We rescued those people from the parasitic state of the Lord of Order, but we also need to check if there are any sequelae, or that the magic has caused any damage to the soul. The trauma." Miaoshuba

The orangutan took out an empty wine bottle from his arms, handed it to Deathstroke with a smile, and pitifully wanted to get a new bottle.

Su Ming gave him a bottle, then squatted down and patted his shoulder: "Don't drink it in a hurry. Let me ask you again, when you were repairing Jim's statue, didn't you think about repairing the fountain?"

"There are several fountains in the city, but they are all magical creations and belong to the nobles. There is no underground water in this country, and an orangutan like me who doesn't know magic will never be able to build a fountain for Jim in my lifetime."

Bobo looked a little disappointed, his lower lip turned outwards, looking a little lonely.

Su Ming helped him unscrew the wine bottle, straightened his hat and said:

"Sure enough, I have noticed before that as a medieval-style city, there is something wrong here. After walking through so many streets, I found that there is not even a well in the city. I have checked all kinds of corpses in the square, no matter what they look like. No matter how weird they are, they are also carbon-based creatures. Carbon-based creatures cannot live long without water. According to their living needs, the residents in the city need wells, because not everyone is a magician, and most of the civilians are just Know a bit of the spell-like abilities of your own race."

Bobo did not hold the wine bottle, but touched his chin: "So, there is indeed a problem. When I wanted to dig a well, someone told me that there is no water under the land, and I can only rely on water to irrigate crops. It rains on time every three days, and civilians also need to store rainwater every three days, so I didn’t dig into it at the time and just thought it was a special national condition.”

"Then what do you do when you're thirsty here and want to drink water?" Harley came over holding the cat and asked.

Bobo asked with a puzzled look on his face: "Why do you need to drink water? When I was thirsty, I used the Night Blade to open the portal and go back to the Oblivion Bar. Isn't it good to drink beer or mead?"

Harley thought for a while, suddenly smiled, and said to Su Ming: "Shall we poison the fountains in the city? If you see who is poisoned tomorrow, you will know who stole your water."

"What do you mean by stealing my water?" Su Ming knocked her on the head and asked her to go aside and play: "I asked Bobo this to prove my suspicion that this place belongs to Diana."

"Then what can you give me as a gift?"

Harley winked and motioned to the spirit star in her arms. She wanted Deathstroke to go to Ismot, negotiate with the Red Lantern Corps, and seize the cat lamp demon spirit star to give to her.

Su Ming covered his forehead and waved his hands, ignoring it. Harry already had dozens of cats, what more? This should also be a manifestation of her mental illness.

"You mean, are there still problems underground?" Barry responded quickly and didn't give Harley a chance to get entangled again. He raised his hand to speak.

"Ah." Su Ming responded, took off his mask and lit a cigarette: "I have heard before that Maia is a flat dimension with a round sky and a round place. So if you think of our multiverse, each earth They are all placed on a plate called the Blood Realm, and on the other side of the plate is the Dark Multiverse. Of course, this so-called plate is only conceptual, it is an invisible existence..."

Bobo tapped his elbow and thought: "Is the Wantianyi theory?"

"The person who created this place is very good at using space abilities. Deathstroke said that the place where he found this book is very special, so I guess there may be a twin dimension, or darkness, under our feet where these monsters appear. The version of Maia." Zatanna hugged her arms, and her tattered little suit exposed her snow-white arms: "Think about it, the magical creatures in the multiverse all live in Maia, so is there no magic in the dark multiverse? Do you have any thoughts? If so, where are the creatures created by these thoughts?"

The more Zatanna talked, the happier she became. She also felt that this possibility was very high. If there was another pair of Bobo and Jim in the Dark Multiverse, where would their night blades lead if they didn't lead here?

If balance needs to be maintained, then where there is light there is darkness, and the example of the dark multiverse is there.

"Just thinking about it, Circe might be standing foot to foot with me right now, and I feel like the hair on my body is going to fall off..." Bobo still raised the bottle, and kept talking. After taking a few sips, the golden wine flowed down the black hair on his neck and wet the clothes on his chest.

"Everyone come closer, I will assign tasks." Su Ming planned to prove his conjecture, and he made a decision directly: "McGeeken, Barry, you, me and Deadpool, let's find a way to dig a deep well. . Bobo, please take everyone back to the castle and close the door."
