When Ye Qing asked this question, she felt a little stupid.

However, it is better to ask clearly out of caution. After all, Ye Qing has encountered those outrageous NPCs in the past, who were full of nonsense and seemed to exist just to deceive people.

"Of course, that is originally a world where non-human beings exist. If there weren't always people who wanted to go to that world, there shouldn't be any connection between the two worlds."

"So, this is still because of the living?"

Ye Qing asked tentatively, if there should be no connection between the two worlds, then there might be more than just the owner of this house trying to open the passage.

The information we got from Feilin was very clear. Not only did they enter the City of Shadows, but they also discovered something.

"Yes, it's not just the owner of this house who opened the passage, there are other places as well. The more passages between the two worlds are opened, the stronger the connection between the two sides will become, and the more beings will appear in the world of the living."

Like a war of gods?

Ye Qing did not ask the question because such a description made her feel more and more immediate.

Entering the Shadow City suddenly became the most important task. Ye Qing had to find out what was going on there as soon as possible.

"The passage is about to open, be prepared."

When Ye Qing was about to figure out what was over there, the figure behind her reminded her.

A dark hole had gradually appeared in the vortex beneath her feet. At this moment, Ye Qing was floating in the air, naturally because of the figure behind her.

As soon as he finished speaking, without waiting for Ye Qing to ask what preparations he had made, the figure behind him suddenly let go of his hand.

"Depend on!!"

An intense feeling of weightlessness suddenly hit Ye Qing's body, making her feel as if she was being torn apart and falling continuously into the bottomless abyss.

But in the moment before falling, Ye Qing also saw the figure floating behind him.

The bloodstained white dress, the yellowed lantern, the face no longer had that distorted expression, but instead a faint sadness.

This feeling did not last long, and Ye Qing felt that he had stepped on the ground.

But when her upper body tried to escape from the whirlpool, it took a lot of effort for her to free herself from it, as if half of her body was stuck in a quagmire.

“Is this the City of Shadows?”

When Ye Qing saw the scene clearly, she was really surprised.

It seemed that he was still in the basement, but unlike the original basement, this place looked like it had been abandoned for decades.

It was overgrown with weeds, dilapidated, and looked like it was about to fall apart.

More importantly, the world around me looks like it's been filtered through a gray-blue filter; there's not a lick of color in the world in front of me.

In this depressing and gloomy environment, Ye Qing subconsciously took out justice.

Fortunately, there is no debuff in the City of Shadows, at least it seems so for now.

Chapter 33 Abnormality

Stepping onto the somewhat rotten stairs, the creaking sound made Ye Qing subconsciously slow down his steps.

Especially in such an empty and silent basement, the sound of the stairs being crushed and bent even continued to echo.

Ye Qing's breathing subconsciously slowed down, and his whole spirit was tense at this moment.

Fortunately, I didn't encounter any monsters on the way back upstairs.

"If I remember correctly, she said this is where people like her live. Does that mean this is the world of the dead?"

Ye Qing glanced at his inventory. He still had quite a few spells and potions to deal with the undead. These were the supplies he had made in preparation for dealing with the Demon King.

However, the figure mentioned the so-called voice of the devil, which Ye Qing thought was not groundless.

When Ye Qing returned to the upper level, the task prompt also appeared.

Special Assignment: Mist Walker

Mission Description: Find the figure that moves freely in the City of Shadows and find out the secret of his free movement.

Mission Reward: Auxiliary Equipment - Dusk Lantern

(Tip: Player actions will have irreversible effects on the mission, please proceed with caution.)

This should be the task that the figure wants to assign to me.

After Ye Qing clicked to accept, he couldn't help but regret why he didn't ask for the name clearly. Maybe he could find some clues or people who could help him here.

At the same time, Ye Qing also marked Feilin's mission, but unfortunately, the mission did not provide navigation, or it was normal that there was no navigation.

For difficult searching missions, it is not uncommon to have no navigation.

After checking the tasks again, Ye Qing highlighted certain entries and then slowly opened the door.

Mission: The World on the Backside (Legend 1-1)

Mission description: Investigate the legendary Shadow City and retrieve the mission item: "Nine Nether Three-Stringed Lute".

Mission Reward: The camp is changed to "Feilin Camp", and all contribution points except for this camp are cleared, and 150,000 contribution points are awarded to "Feilin Camp".

(Warning: This task can only be shared with one person at most, and the difficulty of the task will increase with the number of participants. Please choose carefully.)

There was no time to find anyone, and Ye Qing didn't think of letting anyone take on this task easily.

Even though Ye Qing has never died during normal missions, if he were to die in a special or important mission, he would not only be punished with death but he might also lose the mission.

"Such a thick fog. I don't know if it's just the room or the city as well."

After going out, the thick fog made Ye Qing frown slightly.

Especially under this underworld filter, even the normal fog looks like there are human figures moving around.

Of course, Ye Qing also has a map of the imperial capital in his hand. If the City of Shadows and the imperial capital correspond to each other, then his current location should be the northern city area behind the Titan Gate.

If we were to say what iconic buildings there are in each urban area, they would naturally be the various guild buildings.

The Warrior Guild in the North City District is not far from here. You can find it by looking at the map.

"It's so cold... Is it so cold in Shadow City?"

Ye Qing walked slowly along the roadside. She exhaled, and suddenly some white mist appeared on the sword.

Although he was not clear about some of the less important buildings around him, Ye Qing had a sense of déjà vu after seeing those familiar stalls.

I hope this isn't a trick to confuse people...

The further he moved forward, the more confused Ye Qing became.

"If this is also the world of the dead, then it is very different from Frostburg."

Ye Qing chuckled. Although there was no City of Shadows in the dungeons he had experienced in the past, the Frost Castle, which was also known as the world of the dead, was truly full of undead creatures.

Ghosts, zombies, skeleton warriors, death knights, and even lich lords.

Whenever players enter Frost Castle, they will be attacked crazily by undead creatures. In comparison, the current Shadow City is much safer.

Until Ye Qing stepped on something

The crisp sound of breaking made Ye Qing quickly move aside, not daring to make any other movements.

In the completely silent environment, the sound traveled far away in an instant.

As the saying goes, there must be something wrong when something is out of the ordinary. If there was a sudden noise in such a quiet environment, who knows what would happen.

Ye Qing leaned against the edge of the alley, his eyes fixed on the place where he had stepped on the broken bones.

Soon, there was movement in the fog.

At first there was a rustling sound, and then the sound of flesh rubbing against the ground, which made Ye Qing even more certain that there must be something hidden in the mist.

Soon, a dry and black arm emerged from the place where the bone was broken.

What appeared in Ye Qing's eyes was a charred corpse that seemed to have been burned by fire, crawling towards him in a twisted and strange posture.

When it approached the broken bones, the charred head suddenly trembled, as if it was exploring the traces there.

The detection skill has been activated, and what appeared in front of Ye Qing was not some outrageous monster.

冤尸

HP:1/1

mp: None

Such a simple attribute can only indicate one problem: the number of these things is probably ridiculously large.

Ye Qing decisively threw out a flying knife, which directly pierced the guy's head, leaving it no chance to attack.

At the same time, she has also grasped justice tightly and is always on guard against possible enemies.

After the death of the wronged corpse, it turned into a black mist and disappeared on the spot without even any unnecessary movement, which made Ye Qing secretly relieved.

After dealing with the resentful corpse, Ye Qing did not stay here for long, and immediately rushed to the location of the Warrior Guild.

As long as you can make sure that the maps are consistent, you can save a lot of time later.

Along the way, Ye Qing did not encounter a second wronged corpse, nor did he encounter any other monsters, but the more this happened, the more confused Ye Qing became.

If these things are wandering unconsciously in the fog, then the fact that no monsters are seen after traveling such a long distance means that the density of the fog should not be high.

But if the density is not high, their appearance should always be regular.

"arrive."

While Ye Qing was thinking, she also came to the building of the Warrior Guild.

The building in front of him still remained in its complete and magnificent state, which made Ye Qing frown slightly.

The surrounding buildings look so dilapidated, but this Warrior Guild looks so normal.

"It's so abnormal, this is the biggest problem..."

Ye Qing sighed. Anyone who doesn’t go in is a fool.

Slowly pushing open the heavy door of the Warrior Guild, Ye Qing threw a few light talismans inside before walking in.

"Welcome...to you"

A hoarse and low voice sounded, causing Ye Qing's scalp to tingle.

Chapter 34: Fighter Guild

Although the voice became hoarse and low, Ye Qing remembered it clearly.

Almost every warrior player has to hear the gentle voice of the front desk lady of the Warrior Guild a hundred times.

But hearing it in this way now made Ye Qing feel a little numb on his scalp, and his steps that were about to step in froze involuntarily.

However, the lady at the front desk was not the gentle and lovely lady she used to be.

"What the hell..."

Ye Qing took a deep breath. Now, the person "sitting" at the front desk was a blurry body sewn to the wall, making sounds as if obeying instinct.

It's just a body like this, and no features can be seen.

The pitch-black stitches basically stitched together its facial features, and the flesh stuck to the wall seemed to be melting continuously.

Without thinking too much, Ye Qing slowed down his pace and walked slowly into the Warrior Guild.

Sure enough, that guy couldn't see himself.

Ye Qing breathed a sigh of relief. As she slowly walked around the front desk, there were no more abnormal reactions from the body, and the voice of welcome gradually became quieter.

The main buildings in the Warrior Guild are divided into three floors. The first floor is the ordinary task release area and recruitment area. Players basically form teams and receive tasks on this floor.

The second floor is an area where contribution points are exchanged for equipment, props, and more advanced tasks. This floor is also where high-level NPCs are concentrated.

The third floor is naturally the office of the leader of the Warrior Guild. The leader of the Warrior Guild will meet with the top three players in that office every month and distribute precious rewards.

Ye Qing took a look at the first floor. Not only were there no monsters here, but even the weapons and props that were usually displayed were gone.

This is normal. After all, this is not the original world. Ye Qing, who did not find any clues, naturally walked up.

When he arrived at the second floor, before he pushed open the door, Ye Qing heard some noise coming from inside.

It was a sound like whispering, coming from the room behind the door.

But even if Ye Qing put his ear close to the person, he couldn't hear what the "person" in the room was saying.
