After going into the sea, I met the witch lady

Chapter 322 Blood and Curse
Led by a sturdy priest and his entourage, Ryan entered the torch city called "City of Sanctuary".

As soon as he stepped in, Ryan felt the "sunshine" in the air.

No matter how gentle it behaved, Ryan could still sense its "dominance" and "arrogance" deep inside.

This is not just a problem for the City of Sanctuary, but for all the torch cities.

They originated from the Sun God Clan, and "tyranny" and "arrogance" are the imprints rooted in the Sun God Clan's bodies and souls.

Walking along the main road in the city, Ryan looked around the situation.

Most people's complexions did not look very good, which was an obvious sign of malnutrition. Some warriors who possessed extraordinary powers were walking through the streets. When these people met the priests and strong men, most of them would salute respectfully. It can be seen that the status of the priest and strong men team in the City of Sanctuary is not low.

"In the Sanctuary City, there is very little arable land available for cultivation, and food for all residents is uniformly distributed according to their contribution."

Noticing Ryan's gaze lingering on the civilians, the burly pastor explained.

His tone was low and helpless.

"The city lord is a very good leader, but the world has become like this. No matter how hard she tries, she can only do this."

"Ugh……"

"Lord Zifeng, please follow me. There is a special place in the city that is specially designed to accommodate you, the alien world visitors. It is the Tower of Stars."

Ryan nodded and followed. Soon, a spectacular stone tower over a hundred meters high appeared in front of everyone.

There are countless light blue fluorescent lights floating around the stone tower. It can be predicted that the scenery here will be quite gorgeous at night.

Walking into it, the first floor of the Star Tower is in the style of a bar.

The bar was decorated with various rough and primitive bone carvings and unknown furs, and behind the bar stood a man quietly wiping the wine glasses.

He has a slender figure, with delicate and soft fingers, but the most eye-catching thing is the faint scales on his cheeks.

"Dear guests, welcome to the Star Tower. I am the person in charge here, Mebalo."

"Mr. Mei." The strong pastor came to the bar and bowed very respectfully.

It was a bit funny for a middle-aged man to salute a young man who looked no more than 20 years old, but no one present had any objection.

"Master Zifeng, let me introduce you to Elder Mei, who is not only the head of the Star Tower, but also a half-dragon who has lived for three hundred years. I have been instructed by him before."

Half dragon?
interesting.

Ryan smiled and extended his hand politely.

Mebalo put down the wine glass in his hand, took off the gloves on it, stretched out his hand and shook hands gently with Ryan.

He seemed to be wiping the wine glass, but in fact, he focused all his attention on Ryan the moment Ryan stepped into this place.

He couldn't see through this human being.

There was no fluctuation at all, and his presence was not strong. If the strong pastor had not been so respectful, he would have thought he was an ordinary person.

But this is the Star Tower, and there is no way the burly priest would bring an ordinary person here.

In other words, this human's strength is far above mine.

With this doubt, Mebalo gently shook hands with Ryan.

Then, he pulled away in fright as if he had been electrocuted.

In order to cover up his disorder, Mebalo coughed and said, "Excuse me, sir, what kind of drink would you like?"

Being the person in charge of this Star Tower and being entrusted with an important task by the city lord, Mebalo has not only profound knowledge and strong strength, but most importantly, he also has an extremely hidden special talent.

That is, through contact, he can obtain intelligence information about the contactee.

The greater the gap in strength between the two sides, the more complete the intelligence information obtained. Even if the other party is stronger than oneself, some intelligence can still be obtained.

This is very important for the City of Refuge.

If there were to be a conflict between the City of Sanctuary and these alien travelers, it would be much easier to deal with it with intelligence in hand.

But at the moment when his palms touched, Mebalo felt that every cell in his body was trembling.

That is, the suppression of blood!

This surprised Mebalo.

Although he is half dragon, the bloodline of the dragon clan is extremely noble.

Even the Dragon King could not make him feel this level of blood suppression.

This seemingly human-like guest is actually a being with a bloodline higher than that of the Dragon King?!

With fear and curiosity, Mebalo looked at the information he obtained through his innate ability.

-

[Name]: Zifeng (perhaps a pseudonym?)
【age】:???

【strength】:???

【equipment】:???

【ability】:? ? ?

【talent】:? ? ?

[Comprehensive Evaluation]: Abyss Disaster, if you are the enemy, your chances of winning are: -100%.

-

Looking at the intelligence information displayed in front of him, Mebalo couldn't help but blink hard.

Am I dreaming?
The gap in strength was too big, so I only got a pseudonym, and everything else was a question mark. I endured it.

But a possible -100% chance of winning is a bit too much, isn’t that?
Can the chance of winning be a negative number?

Perhaps influenced by his strong thinking, a small explanation appeared behind the "-100%" chance of victory.

——After being killed by him, your true spirit will no longer be able to reincarnate and will be completely annihilated. Once you become hostile, the probability of this happening is 100%, so it is displayed as a -100% winning rate.

Mebalo was stunned.

What kind of existence is this person???
"This... sir."

Under the confused eyes of the strong priest and others, Mebalo said tremblingly: "Please wait here for a moment. I am not qualified to receive you. I will go and invite the city lord now."

"No need, I'm already here."

A clear female voice sounded, and Ryan turned to look.

At the entrance of the Star Tower, rotating light particles gathered to form a slender girl.

Her eyes were bright, as if the sun was burning in them, and her hair was golden, almost glowing, flying behind her.

Wearing a long dress, she looked more like a beautiful princess than a city lord.

Her face was filled with strong flames, making it impossible to see clearly, but for Ryan, this was not a problem.

However, after seeing the city lord's appearance clearly, Ryan frowned slightly.

"Mr. Mei, I will personally entertain this powerful guest."

"You can go and rest now."

The city lord also said the last sentence to the burly pastor and others.

Upon hearing this, the priest, the strong man and others bowed with great respect and then quietly left the Star Tower.

The same is true for Mebalo.

Soon, Ryan and the city lord were the only ones left in the huge bar hall. "Mr. Zifeng, I believe you have seen it, right?"

The Lord of the City of Asylum said in a low voice: "My appearance."

Ryan nodded: "Very similar to Crystal Loli."

"Crystal Loli?" The Lord of Sanctuary City smiled slightly at Ryan's name and shook his head: "That's appropriate, but I usually call her Alola 005."

"And I am the prototype of Allura. You can call me the Lord of Sanctuary City, or you can call me Allura, or Allura 001."

"Mr. Zifeng, let's not waste any more time on small talk."

"I just want to ask you a question."

"Why did a strong man like you come to the City of Sanctuary? If there is something you need here, I can give it to you without affecting the survival of the residents."

Ryan shook his head: "Ms. Alora, I think you must have misunderstood."

"I didn't come here for any reason. I just happened to enter this world and saw Crystal Lolita. Um, Alola Team 005 was fighting against the ancient octopus god."

“So afterward, I came to take a look.”

"To be honest, I'm a little interested in the mask used by Alola 005."

"If I'm not mistaken, the power inside comes from the Sun God Clan, right?"

“Tsk tsk… You who are protected by the Sun God Clan, are using some special method to use the power of the Sun God Clan?”

"Aren't you afraid of being blamed by the Sun God Clan by doing this?"

Ryan was indeed a little curious.

The power of the extremely scorching flames, if he guessed correctly, was most likely from the "Scorching Sun Star" collected by the Mother of Heaven.

After all, with ninth-level power and the characteristics of the scorching sun, how could there be so many coincidences?
How could he not be curious about the power of the immortal world?

City Lord Alora did not refute Ryan's words. She just stood there quietly. After being silent for more than ten seconds, she slowly said:

"Mr. Zifeng, I wonder how ordinary people in your world live?"

This question stumped Ryan.

After he traveled through time, he spent most of his time drifting on the sea with Freni, and he didn't know much about ordinary people in the Golden World.

However, he still knew something about ordinary people on some of the islands along the way.

"Well, it's not that great, but at least there's something to eat."

"Yes, everyone can have food..." City Lord Allura said in a low voice: "But for the residents of Sanctuary City, even food is almost a luxury."

"Everyone knows that it was only after the arrival of the Extreme Flame that humans in our world were able to break free from the status of 'livestock' and live a dignified life under the protection of the Sun God Clan."

At this point, she sneered: "But you must know that everything has a price."

"Yes, we have been protected, but do you know what we have to lose?"

Ryan didn't say anything, but listened to the city lord Alora's "venting".

"It is the future of mankind! It is our life! It is our soul!"

"Indeed, the light emitted by the torch can dispel the black fog, but do you know what fuels the torch? It is the souls of powerful humans like us!"

"Even if the souls of the ancient gods can maintain the existence of the outer flame, the inner flame always needs strong humans as the foundation."

"Why?"

"Why do humans in our world have to pay such a huge price just to stay alive?"

Ryan's expression did not change at all: "So, this is why you want to get involved in the power of the Sun God Clan?"

"Isn't this reason enough?" City Lord Alora gradually calmed down. She looked at Ryan and said, "Mr. Zifeng, since we are both human, I hope you won't disclose this matter."

"If humans want to live with true dignity, they must rely on themselves!"

"Interesting." Ryan smiled.

He could sense that what City Lord Alora said was true.

With her strength just entering the main god level, it is too difficult for her to lie in front of him.

"Don't worry, I'm not familiar with the Sun God Clan and have no interest in reporting them."

"It's just that I want to see the source of the mask's power. Ms. Alora, can you show me?"

"Of course." City Lord Allura stared at Ryan: "But do you really want to see it? Once you are contaminated with that aura, I will not be responsible if you are hunted down by the Sun God Clan in the future."

"Don't worry." Ryan waved his hand nonchalantly.

His purpose in coming to this world is to become the "top", which naturally conflicts with the icy black fog and the extremely scorching flames.

Since it has come to this, it doesn’t matter how intense the conflict is.

"Since you are not afraid, then follow me."

City Lord Allura snorted, turned around and flew backwards.

Ryan followed slowly.

Soon, the two arrived at the city lord's tower in the center of the city of refuge.

After entering it, driven by an elevator-like device, they went hundreds of meters underground. Finally, they came to an absolutely enclosed space.

"See, this is the source of the mask's power that you are curious about."

Ryan looked up.

I saw a corpse of a sun god with red wings and a third eye between his eyebrows, fixed in mid-air by countless golden chains.

"The power of the Sun God Clan comes from their bloodline. The closer they are to the 'Extremely Scorching Sun', the higher their upper limit of strength will be."

"And what you see in front of you is the body of a second-generation Protoss elder."

"Alola 005 is my offspring, and also a 'battle doll' created with me as the mother. Although she has her own soul, due to her special nature, she can use the power hidden in the bloodline of the Sun God Clan."

"However, I am still a human being after all. Even after countless improvements, the life span of my sub-body is unlikely to exceed thirty years. Moreover, if I use the power of the Sun God Clan, there is a risk of backlash."

"Alola 005 was attacked by the backlash."

City Lord Alora's tone was calm.

"I see."

Ryan understood.

Using body transformation technology, the power of the Sun God Clan was transformed into a curse and inhabited the combat puppets, giving these combat puppets extremely powerful combat capabilities.

The price is their lives.

There is no doubt that this is an extremely cruel act.

However, for the City of Refuge, perhaps, this is the last resort?

Just as Ryan was observing the body of the elder of the Sun God clan, suddenly, a red-gold light burst out from the body of the elder of the Sun God clan, accurately hitting Ryan's forehead, outlining a red-black sun mark on it.

"So, this is the real reason why you brought me here?"

"You've taken a fancy to my strength and want to use the Sun God Clan's hunting mark to tie me to your warship?"

Ryan looked at the city lord, Allura, and asked.

"I'm sorry, I have no choice..." City Lord Allura lowered her head, but soon raised it again and looked at Ryan, her eyes filled with a determination that was unimaginable to the world.
