Seeing Lin Ye was silent, Zhiqiong thought he was depressed, so she encouraged him.
"After we get out, I will talk to Sister Lan about your contribution, and you should also give me a promotion!"
When Lin Ye heard this, he didn't know where to start complaining.
He decided that he would brush up his adventure level when he had time. You see, most of the quests in the game were commissioned by the Adventure Association.
Lin Ye and Zhi Qiong chatted for a while, then Jin Wu called him over.
After Jinwu reported the need for reinforcements to the higher-ups, the Qianyan Army acted very efficiently and the second batch of Qianyan Army arrived.
Lin Ye also met an acquaintance.
Fan Hai.
Everyone may have forgotten that he is Lin Ye’s loyal fan.
He first appeared in Lin Ye to deal with the boss's affairs, and went to Ao Zang Mountain with Hu Tao and Xing Qiu to suppress bandits (the boss).
See you today, it's a new year.
"Long time no see!" Fan Hai greeted enthusiastically, "I heard that a special envoy came, but I didn't expect it to be you. If I had known, I would have come to see you earlier."
Jinwu and Haidi looked at each other, and Jinwu asked.
"Do you know?"
"Of course!" Fan Hai said immediately. He was about to talk about Lin Ye's deeds, but considering the policy from above, he couldn't reveal Lin Ye's identity. He gave up with a look of regret and sighed, "Alas!"
Jinwu tilted his head, looking elated one second and dejected the next.
Lin Ye and Fan Hai found a corner to talk alone.
After Fan Hai's meritorious service in suppressing bandits, his superiors were interested in promoting him because of his high enthusiasm and good skills. But before that, they sent Fan Hai to the Layered Rock Abyss to hone his skills and feel the will of the martyrs from hundreds of years ago.
Lin Ye turned his head to look in Zhiqiong's direction and found that the girl had fallen asleep. Zhiqiong's nerves had been extremely tense these days, and once she relaxed, she would easily fall asleep.
Just right.
Lin Ye asked Fan Hai to keep an eye on Zhi Qiong, or at least not let her run around, and to move with the Qianyan Army.
Then comes the time when the topographic map drawn by Zhiqiong comes into play.
Fan Hai naturally agreed and promised to protect Zhiqiong's safety.
Next, it was Lin Ye's turn to explore on his own. Previously, because he was taking care of Zhiqiong, his exploration speed was limited. Now that he knew there were traces of the Abyss Cult's activities in the depths, Lin Ye had to go all out.
Fan Hai trusts Lin Ye quite a lot.
Lin Ye returned to the rugged stone hall and found that the Hanging City was shrouded in purple mist and the black mud underneath covered a larger area than before he left.
Lin Ye had many dealings with the Abyss Cult and felt the strong aura of the Abyss.
He exhaled, and as the forest began to shine, he flew towards the upside-down city.
There is no doubt that the Layered Rock Abyss is an underground world. Under the surface is also a huge spiral pit that is hundreds of meters deep, not to mention the endless interior.
However, there are trees under the abyss, or more precisely, climbing branches, which are integrated with the mineral rocks. Some buildings in the Hanging City are supported by thick branches.
In fact, there are two kinds of trees in the Layered Abyss. One is the ivy-colored tree that Lin Ye saw, and the other is the silver tree. Lin Ye has not encountered it yet, otherwise he would find that it is similar to the silver-white ancient tree that the princess of Findnir attempted to graft.
Lin Ye landed on a vine and found that the Upside-Down City was sealed. He threw out black fire and the flame burned the purple mist. After a while, a gap appeared.
Stepping into the woods.
The Upside-Down City in the game isn't very large, but during the Dark Disaster, the Thousand Rocks Army's solid line of defense was 200 miles long, and it was still near the Layered Rock Abyss, which shows how vast it is. The city under the abyss is also not small.
After entering the Upside-Down City, Lin Ye did not feel as if the world was turned upside down. The design of the building was very clever, as if there was no distinction between the floor and the ceiling. The entire space was harmonious and natural.
Lin Ye moved forward cautiously, and soon he found the body of the Hilliard.
This was the first time he saw the Hillilks in the Layered Abyss. Their limbs were stiff, their skin was rotten, and there was a foul odor. Their bodies also gave off an uncomfortable chill, as if they were cursed.
In the game, the Traveler came to Stratum Chasm when a miner saw the Hilichurls running to Stratum Chasm en masse and sent an adventurer to investigate.
The Hilichurls in front of us have been here originally. They haven’t seen the sun outside for five hundred years. They hide in dark corners and fend for themselves.
The Hilichurls lay quietly on the haystack, without the noise and fearless charge they made in the past. They were quiet and peaceful, with the Hilichurls masks on their faces covering their features.
The appearance of the Hilichurls is not some mysterious knowledge. Under the mask is just a monster's face. If you randomly grab a Hilichurl, kill it, take off its mask, you will see a hideous face like a crying baby, which is completely different from the regular facial features of humans.
Lin Ye is not a citizen of Kanreya, nor is he even from the continent of Teyvat. He knows that these are the Hilichurls who lived as humans a long time ago, and suffered the ravages of the undead curse in the bodies of monsters, causing physical and mental wear and tear.
Lin Ye expressed sympathy for these innocent Kanreya people and did not destroy their appearance before death. After walking a few steps, he saw an Inteivat flower. The light of the crystal was as bright as the sun. Inteivat did not wither. It was a rare flower that could bloom underground and was the national flower of the Kingdom of Kanreya.
Lin Ye was about to pick it up when he suddenly became alert. He turned his head and saw a knight holding a green sword glaring at him, even though his face was covered by a helmet.
When did it appear?
Black Snake Knight. Sword of Cutting Wind.
One of the knights of the Canrea court.
Lin Ye remembered that the other person's name was Halfdan.
When Halfdan saw the outsiders invading, he charged forward with his green sword clenched.
Lin Ye responded with the wolf's last gasp.
He was not Dain, not a Kanreyan, and could not be recognized by Halfdan as one of his own.
The wear and tear of the curse caused the Black Snake Knights to lose their reason and self, but their honed martial arts and sword skills, called the "Supreme Art", are terrifying and have not been forgotten for thousands of years.
It is undeniable that the Black Snake Knights are not immune to wear and tear, but their sense of duty and strong will have allowed them to persist in following one order for five hundred years: protect our people.
This is a miracle.
And now, Miracle wielded Qingfeng and the big sword, and chopped heavily on the wolf's end.
The muffled echo immediately attracted the attention of the other Black Snake Knights.
"Halfdan! I am not your enemy!" Lin Ye said.
Halfdan did not answer, responding to the invader with his supreme power.
Lin Ye didn't want to get into a stalemate with the Black Snake Knight. The people from the Abyss Cult were hiding in the dark, and no one knew what they were doing.
Lin Ye repelled Halfdan with a sword and ran quickly, shuttling through the natural maze formed by the collapse.
Halfdan glanced at Lin Ye and was about to chase after him, but suddenly realized something and turned away.
After Lin Ye asked Halfdan to help him, he met several Black Snake Knights who had come rushing over. He did not want to fight but hid in the shadows.
After holding their breath for ten moments, the three Black Snake Knights left.
Lin Ye breathed a sigh of relief. He looked towards the center of the Upside-Down City, where there was a device that could end everything in the game.
There is a high chance that someone from the Abyss Cult is there.
What is their purpose?
Just like in the game, he freed these citizens? Then why did he come here in advance? The timeline doesn't match, because of the butterfly effect caused by his appearance?
The Abyss Cult was born from the fall of the Kingdom of Kanreya. They do not have the technology to free their citizens from the curse, but they can kill them and use death as a relief.
After Lin Ye broke the seal of the Upside-Down City, he could imagine that the Abyss Cult knew that someone had broken in, and two singers were dead, so it was impossible for the Abyss Cult to have no reaction at all.
Anyway, let me see what's in there.
Lin Ye flew to the center and no one jumped out to stop him.
……
Chapter 428: Azazi's Brother
In the center of the Hanging City, the core area of this ancient relic, there is a purification device, and a young man is waiting for Lin Ye's arrival.
When Lin Ye saw the other person, he was surprised but also felt it was reasonable. He glanced to both sides and found that the other person was alone.
"From the looks of you, are you waiting for me? No wonder no one stopped us along the way."
Sora stood in the center, gently placed his hand on the purification device, and replied with a calm expression.
"I want to talk to you."
"What to talk about?" Lin Ye asked.
"You saw me in the ruins of the Diocletian capital, didn't you?" Sora said.
Lin Ye nodded, and they both looked at each other. There was no need to pretend not to see anything.
"You don't want me to stay away from your sister, do you?" Lin Ye pondered for a moment and asked deliberately.
Kong didn't say anything. He didn't know how to respond.
"Ying has been looking for you. When do you plan to meet her?"
"...You're right, I do want to see Ying." Sora's tone remained calm, but if you listened carefully, you would find that the tone was softer, and Lin Ye, who used to get along with Shen He, could hear it.
"But now is not the time. When everything is over, I will tell her before she ascends the throne. Let's go home." Kong continued.
Lin Ye recalled his previous conversation with Wendy.
Ying bears a fate, and Kong wants to break it.
But he later failed and joined the Abyss camp.
What does the throne that Kong mentioned refer to?
The First Throne? Or the Second Throne?
"It's no use telling me this." Lin Ye's voice was full of sarcasm. "You guys all like to play riddlers and use some ambiguous words."
Kong smiled rarely when he heard that.
"You're right. Being the Riddler is tiring."
Then, it was unknown what Sora was thinking about, as his expression turned cold.
The personalities of the brother and sister should be similar. Now Kong seems to be indifferent to anyone and anything, but before that, when he traveled in the continent of Teyvat, he made many friends just like Ying.
Seeing this, Lin Ye did not ask any further questions and returned to the original topic.
"What did you want to talk to me about?"
"I have nothing to discuss with you, but someone wants you dead." Kong said shockingly.
When Lin Ye heard this, he was not worried about having too many debts, as there were many people who wanted him dead. However, Lin Ye really didn't know who the enemies related to Kong were.
"Which one?"
Kong shook his head. "Even if I tell you, you can't kill Him."
After hearing this, Lin Ye understood that the idea was difficult and he couldn't defeat it.
"You came to me just to tell me, someone wants to kill me? Why did you tell me?" Lin Ye asked curiously.
Could it be that Kong is a Wuhendao and is actually a good person?
But Sora replied.
"You are Ying's... friend, and I don't want you to die in vain. You are not my enemy, but the enemy of the Abyss, so... I will be the one to deal with you."
Lin Ye:? ?
Lin Ye understood. He and Kong Wu had no grudge against each other, but Kong was following orders. The two of them were supposed to kill him, but because of Ying, Kong informed them in advance.
Is this Yasasi? I'm crying.
No wonder!
Lin Ye was curious about who could order Kong around. Wasn't he the prince of the Abyss Cult?
"Then why don't you do it?" Lin Ye showed no fear. "But before you do it, answer me a question first. A month ago, a woman went missing in the Layered Abyss."
"I wasn't here yet," Sora said bluntly.
"I'm not here to deal with you this time. You saw those hillbillies before you came here, right?"
"…Um."
"They were once the people of Kanreya," said Sora.
"Huh?" Lin Ye pretended to be surprised.
Kong looked at Lin Ye deeply, and felt that he was not surprised, but his expression and voice did not sound fake.
