Chapter 183 The lower class of the city
We arrived at a square in the City of Tears. It was very empty and empty.
"Where do you think it went after the black wind turned the City of Tears into this?" Cullom asked.
"Hownest sewer?" Wan Yi said in a tone that seemed to be considering but actually affirmative.
"Why sewers?"
"Because the style of sewers goes well with those dark things." Wan Yi said with an inexplicable chuckle.
Cullom didn't realize it.
They came out of the Soul Sanctuary and visited the City of Tears, but found nothing, and finally chose to head towards the edge of the city.
The map held by the little knight is quite complete, including the central kingdom of Hallownest and even other areas on the edge of Hallownest.
After looking at the map for a moment, the Knight moved the marker and placed it under Hallownest.
It says "Palace Square" there.
Wan Yi knew that was where his moth clone flew down, located on the lower level of Hallownest.
"There is?"
"It looks like this is where the Pale King's palace is." Wan Yi said. To find the Pale King, don’t we have to find the palace?
Whether I can find it or not is another matter.
And just as Wan Yi and the others were on their way, Moth Wan Yi encountered a little trouble.
It enters the white palace that lies within the deeper realms of dreams.
But as soon as I entered, I couldn't help but curse.
Why are there so many circular saws in this place!
White circular saws were flying everywhere, and it seemed that due to the protection of some kind of dream power, he was unable to destroy these saws at all, causing it to be driven away by the saws.
If it hadn't been able to fly, it would have been even more embarrassing.
In the end, I got lost in this complicated chainsaw maze. A special kind of guard bug wearing white armor would appear from time to time near the ground. It had no breath of life, and there was only pitch black inside the white armor.
They launched a deadly attack on the intruder, Moth Wanyi, coldly and mercilessly.
It can be said that he will not be allowed to stop.
"This King Bai is simply awesome, a decoration expert and a chainsaw maniac." Moth Wan Yi huddled on a roof full of spikes, carefully staying between two spikes.
Although I know that this appearance is just a symbol of the dream's rejection of outsiders, it is the palace of the Pale King after all, and this form of expression is really unbearable.
"The road to the destination has been hidden. What is the key point to open it?"
He thought that he should forget about letting his true body come over to release the clones.
But based on the flying ability of cockroaches, a few chainsaws would probably kill them all in this dream.
The more I think about it, the more desperate I feel.
Then he contacted the main body.
"Huh? The little knight is coming this way?"
"Well, if we can't find a deeper point by ourselves, we will probably gain something if we follow it." Wan Yi said.
"Then why did I come in so early?" Moth Wanyi looked depressed.
"You can go to Wanyi Theater Company to move bricks. They need manpower for reconstruction there."
"Forget it then. Looking back carefully, you have given birth to too many clones here!" Moth Wanyi said.
In the area outside the center of Hallownest, Wan Yi's clones have explored various places. Hallownest is rich in species and there are many types of bugs. Wan Yi will collect more fragments this time to use as a troupe in the sinking sky island group. money to start a business.
"This place is big, and the situation behind it is complicated. Please ask for more if you can." Wan Yida said, "I have broken my heart for this family, but you guys are just looking for fun."
After saying this, the clone did not refute.
Everyone just laughed, not knowing what they were laughing at.
Moth Wanyi lay down on the top of the spiked white palace building to rest.
If you don’t want to work, then so be it.
…
Wan Yi and the little knight wandered to the border of Hallownest.
"According to the map, this is the only way to get down. How on earth do you get down?" Cullom asked in confusion.
The map roughly places the Palace Square under the City of Tears. There is only one passage, but it doesn't give you details on how to get there.
"This seems to be a big elevator." Wan Yi said.
Hallownest's elevator craftsmanship is very primitive, and Wan Yi even suspects that it relies on mysterious power to maintain its normal operation. Moreover, Hallownest seems to deliberately not intend to give way to bugs that stumble and fall into the elevator shaft. The top cover of the elevator is also full of If you stab it, if you fall it will turn into a sieve.
And what appeared in front of them was a big elevator
Although an elevator starting mechanism can be seen next to it, the mechanism has been damaged. Looking down, you can only see the elevator track but not the elevator itself.
Apparently the elevator was damaged.
"Could this also be done by the Black Wind?" Coulom speculated maliciously.
Wan Yi said nothing, but said in his heart that it had nothing to do with him.
Don't blame everything on cockroaches. Although cockroaches do bad things, they don't do all bad things.
After the little knight glanced down, he jumped down directly.
Seeing this, Wan Yi and Kurom stopped chatting, spread their wings and jumped down.
Because Wan Yi and others have never been here, we can still meet many high-altitude guards along the way, but they are far less than the ones on the top of the broken bridge.
The Knight once again demonstrated its superb aerial borrowing skills.
As long as anyone who can fly dares to get close to it, it will be quickly entangled by it, and then it will be used as a springboard to be killed by it. The corpse will fall lightly, but only the little knight is still in the air.
During the fall, the original faint light of the City of Tears gradually disappeared, and a withered and decayed dark brown began to gradually emerge around it.
A strange black breath and particles began to float in the air.
Soon, there were no traces of other guards around, and they finally saw the ground.
The little knight's small body fell to the ground, making a heavy muffled sound. He was small but had a domineering side.
Wan Yi's wings began to fail to function halfway through the flight. He stepped on the wall next to him a few times as a buffer before landing. Cullom was lucky, his wings didn't malfunction this time.
They walked along a passage below, and after passing several roads falling downwards, they found three roads in front of them.
A road leads to a broad square to the right, which should be the palace square marked before.
There is another path to the left, which is also a wide place, but it is in a mess and full of primitive and ominous atmosphere.
There is another one that goes further down.
"It can go further, how deep is it under Hallownest?" Cullom couldn't help but sigh.
"In the books of Hallownest, this is actually the birthplace of Hallownest. However, due to the unsuitable environment, the main area was moved to the top, and the City of Tears was built on it." Wan Yikepu said.
"In this way..." Cullom nodded, but suddenly felt something was wrong and asked, "Why do you suddenly understand so much about the origin of Hallownest?"
You promised to get lost and come in without knowing anything?
"I read it in the book in the Soul Sanctuary before, so I can add some knowledge." Wan Yi took out a book from his "fourth-dimensional cloak" and said.
Although he wanted to say that Wan Yi was not reading at all along the way, Kuromu thought about it and felt that there was no need to go into detail.
"Then little knight, we should go to the Palace Square..."
As soon as Wan Yigang said this, the little knight went to the left without looking back.
The two insects behind them looked at each other and had no choice but to follow.
Because of the rugged rocks, the road that shouldn't have been too difficult actually caused the three insects to take a lot of detours.
In the end, the road ahead was blocked by a large amount of rocks due to landslides, so they chose to tunnel.
Grumbling...
As soon as he came down, Wan Yi stepped on something slippery.
Looking down, I found an "orange juice" extending like a blood vessel in the rock formation.
"Plague?!" Cullom said in shock.
Wan Yi narrowed his eyes and walked a few steps forward with the little knight. Only then did he realize how scary the lower level of this place was.
The swollen orange-red vesicles are like tumors growing out of the rock formations, constantly growing and beating. From these vesicles, orange-red "blood vessels" extend to the surroundings, saturating the land.
It's like the entire environment here has been infected by the plague and mutated on a large scale.
"Roar..." A heavy beast roar came.
Only then did Wan Yi and the others notice that there were some dark shadows surrounding these vesicles.
Upon closer inspection, I discovered that it was a creature that looked like a small worm with limbs and legs. It had mouthparts on the top of its head, and blade-like fangs blooming like petals. Orange eyes surrounded the fangs, and orange-red liquid flowed from its body. juice.
"Maurik!" said Cullom.
This kind of creature is not uncommon around Hallownest. It is a bug that likes to live in the lightless underground and deep in rock formations. It has a low IQ, loves to eat, and likes to move in groups. And if you can't find a companion, your already fierce temper will seriously deteriorate.
But obviously, the Mauric in front of him was completely different from what Cullom had seen.
More ferocious, weird, and more aggressive.
"Roar..." Several little Maurics in front of them approached Wan Yi and his party who broke into their territory.
The little knight directly pulled out the bone nail and chopped down at the frontmost Mauric.
The little Maurik in front of him suddenly pulled out sharp claws from the overlapping ring body to slash.
Ding!
The little knight's bone nail deflected slightly and directly cut off little Maurik's claws.
The little Mauric let out a ferocious wail. After being injured, not only did it not retreat, but the whole bug slammed into the little knight.
"Mr. Mask, dinner is ready."
"唧."
Wan Yi took out his Chongchong knife and passed by. He changed positions with the retreating little knight, withstood Maurik's collision, and directly separated it from top to bottom with a swing of the knife.
However, as soon as he killed one, he was surrounded by a steady stream of seriously infected little Mauricks.
