Chapter 461: Trying your best but still not getting recognition
The originally ordinary buildings and pavilions appeared so strange in the spiritual realm, as if they had life, like trapped beasts imprisoned on the earth, floating and swaying. An unknown substance was attached to the surface of the buildings, making them uneven, turning everything into strange flesh and blood creations.

The courtyards are like bottomless bloody mouths, the streets are twisting and turning like wriggling intestines, and several tall buildings have spikes growing on them, just like poisonous snakes raising their heads to look for prey.

But their colors are so bright and colorful, like a beautiful yet cruel fairy tale picture.

Jiang Lu and Lucifer's perspectives have left their bodies. Sitting in the small boat on top of the lightning rod, they are still maintaining the movements they had before their spirits left their bodies, but their spirits have been freed from their restraints and are no longer restricted by anything.

"This is actually the spiritual realm in the true sense, the area between reality and the spiritual river. Last time I took you directly into the spiritual river, so you didn't see these."

Jiang Lu said.

Lucifer looked at everything in his sight in amazement. It was the first time even for him to see such a scene.

"It's my first time. It's a very strange feeling, but beautiful at the same time." He murmured.

"well enough."

Jiang Lu disagreed: "I saw it a few times when I was a kid, but this is nothing. I didn't even see a villain."

However, after some observation, they were still a little disappointed.

Although at first glance it seems that everything here is strange, if you compare them carefully you will find that although they are weird, they all have a degree and the styles are almost the same. It is really difficult to find the strangest one among them.

It's like when you're browsing a website and see anime, each one is very eye-catching, but if the website is full of hentai, then no matter which one it is, it will be a bit mediocre.

This is far from the standard that Nordens said would be weird at first glance.

"It seems that there are no ancient artifacts in the main urban area of ​​Yinjing City." Although he was mentally prepared, Jiang Lu still felt a little regretful after confirming it.

"That's normal, actually." Lucifer consoled him, "Think about it, Yinjing City is right under Nyarlathotep's nose. If the ancient artifacts were hidden here, he should have found them long ago. So if you don't see them in the main city and the palace, then there's no need to look anywhere else in Yinjing City."

"That makes sense." Jiang Lu nodded.

The reason is very simple. Antiquities are like the stabilizing force of every world. Only when they exist in that world can the world be stable and peaceful. If they are taken away, the world will be destroyed and all living things will become extinct.

Therefore, the ancient objects in the underworld must still be in the underworld.

And if the ancient artifact existed in Yinjing City, then Nyarlathotep, who was so close to it, would not have failed to take any measures. Even if he did not move it to the palace, he would definitely protect it and keep it in the safest place.

But now that they have not been found in the most heavily defended area of ​​the main urban area, there is no need to look in other places. It has been confirmed that the ancient artifacts are scattered in other places in the underworld.

After looking around again and confirming that nothing was missed, Jiang Lu and Lucifer left the spiritual realm and headed to the next overlooking point.

Jiang Lu estimated the time. If he worked hard, he should be able to synchronize several cities around Yinjing City before dawn. At most, he might be able to complete half of the work.

So, in the darkness of the night, the two of them traveled through the vast land of the underworld without stopping for a moment.

They were moving extremely fast, but the underworld was too big after all. The distance between cities was even farther than the distance between continents on Earth. In addition, it had been a long time since he had been to those places. Jiang Lu no longer had any way to achieve instant movement by finding the exact coordinates and could only rely on his legs.

So by the time they reached the next city, nearly half an hour had passed.
"Does that look like that to you?"

Standing at the overlooking point, Lucifer pointed to a towering tree with tangled roots and gnarled branches: "This is the only tree in this area, could it be that one?" Jiang Lu looked at it carefully for a long time and shook his head slowly: "It shouldn't be. Although there is only this tree here, there are many similar trees in Yinjing City. It can only be said that it is special here. At most, it can be regarded as a specialty?"

Again finding nothing, they moved on to the next city.

"Does that look like that to you?"

Lucifer asked, "Shouldn't a pineapple this big be weird enough?"

"I don't think so." Jiang Lu shook his head. "Although it's strange to have a pineapple here, if you think about it carefully, pineapples are also something we can see in our daily lives. It doesn't fit what Nordens said about being the strangest thing we have ever seen in our lives, right?"

"Too."

They continued on to the next city.

"Will that be it?"

Lucifer pointed at the Nine Dragons pulling the coffin in the distance and said, "It looks like it's very powerful."

"I don't think so." Jiang Lu still shook his head: "The Nine Dragons Pulling Coffin is not a very special thing. Maybe it was impressive and impressive ten years ago, but now it has become a standard and very ordinary."

"But there seems to be another person up there."

"Oh, that's Ye Fan. He should just be passing by. It's even less likely to be an ancient artifact. This thing can't just run away."

Sure enough, the Nine Dragons Pulling Coffin floated away not long after, and no one knew where it went. All that could be seen was a tuft of red hair poking out from the bottom of the coffin in a place Ye Fan didn't notice, but it quickly went back again.

"Should I remind him?" Lucifer asked.

"Don't let anything bad happen to you."

They move on.

Lucifer asked questions again and again, pointing out things that he found strange and abrupt, but was denied by Jiang Lu every time.

It was almost dawn, and the two had already started planning to return after visiting the last city, when the first thing that truly shocked Lucifer finally appeared. He didn't even ask Jiang Lu, but felt goose bumps all over his body at just one glance.

"Just now, wasn't it?"

He gestured with difficulty: "Is there an oregano with a face and limbs running past us?"

"Yeah." Jiang Lu nodded: "Yes, you read it right, but I still think this is normal and not a big deal, because I have COSed like this before, it's a bit too ordinary."

But this time Lucifer did not agree.

After being silent for a long time, he finally couldn't help it.

"Forget about the previous ones, you're telling me this is just ordinary?! It has a face! And it has leg hair! Isn't this too weird?!"

Good night
