Chapter 1875

In such an extremely dangerous place, rushing blindly was clearly courting death, but Su Xiao wouldn't keep hiding either. If he encountered a suitable enemy, he would definitely kill one to see what benefits he could obtain.

In the crisis-ridden Dead Silence City, Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang's ability was clearly stronger than Su Xiao's. It had just experimented, and neither the black-haired little girl nor the old Saint Cultivator could perceive its existence.

The heavy responsibility of clearing the way fell on Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang. The first thing it did was to explore and check whether there were existences like the old Saint Cultivator in the surrounding houses to obtain information or benefits.

Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang first checked the two rows of houses on the street. However, most of the houses were filled with residents of the Dead Silence City in tattered clothes and black-grey skin. What was even more terrifying was the inverted cross church. Inside, there was a large snake, a large snake that seemed to be composed of black mud.

Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang's original words were that when it saw that thing, its hind legs started to tremble. Fortunately, it held it tight, otherwise it would have almost peed itself.

After some exploration, the result was that neutral residents like the old Saint Cultivator were very rare, while all kinds of monsters were countless. Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang confirmed the eyes with those monsters, and there were two or three that Su Xiao couldn't handle.

"What should we do? Are we going to stay here forever? The retreat is blocked by that dead child. Otherwise, should we go and discuss it with her? Give her something to eat and let her let us go back?"

Veronique held up her pants with one hand, which was caused by the previous painful experience.

"If we feed your head to her, she might let us pass."

Su Xiao, of course, wasn't planning to go back. In such an interesting place, he would definitely explore it.

After about ten minutes, Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang returned. After detaching from the environment, it shook its head at Su Xiao, meaning it didn't see the Old Monk's corpse or remains. The other party was likely still alive, and there were no neutral residents nearby.

"Are there any clues related to the Hall of Birth?"

"Woof~ (Didn't see any)."

"Is that so? Then choose a relatively safe path and head toward that tallest building."

"Woof."

"Hmm, that makes sense. If so, that side might be the Hall of Birth."

"Woof~"

"Okay."

The conversation between Su Xiao and Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang ended. Veronique, on the side, was dumbfounded. She had a sentence that almost slipped out, which was: "Mr. Duke, were you a dog in your previous life? Your conversation is so smooth."

After Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang blended into the environment, it bumped into Su Xiao lightly so that Su Xiao could see it, and then it walked toward the back of the wooden house.

According to Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang's observation, there were many Tree-Eaters. In about two minutes, Tree-Eaters would patrol the street.

Now Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang was taking Su Xiao through the gaps between the houses. Although this path wasn't safe either, it could minimize the chances of encountering enemies that couldn't be countered.

Walking between the black-grey houses, Su Xiao found that the glass in all the windows was covered in grime, and black cloth strips hung on some wooden fences, looking like clothes being dried. This showed that living creatures had once lived in the Dead Silence City before being eroded and assimilated.

And after entering the Dead Silence City, Su Xiao found a very strange point, which was that the ground here was stone, and he didn't see any soil at all. Even if there were large pits tens of meters deep left by battle traces, the bottom of the pits was completely grey rock.

The only place where soil could be seen was the large pottery jars in front of and behind every household, which contained a kind of light black soil. The plants planted on it had long since withered. Soil seemed to be a very rare thing in the Dead Silence City.

After moving forward for a few hundred meters in the gaps between various houses, Su Xiao stopped. Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang ahead sent a message that the situation was a bit wrong, telling Su Xiao not to make any sound and to walk over slowly.

Su Xiao jumped onto the roof of a house, with Veronique carried on his shoulder, responsible for shielding sounds, vibrations, etc.

After moving forward for about fifty meters, Su Xiao saw an open space. Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang was squatting in the open space, and a few meters in front of it was a small stall, with an old woman with white hair sitting behind the stall.

Su Xiao jumped down from the roof. After confirming that there were no enemies around, he walked slowly toward the old woman.

"Living one, do you want to buy my things?"

The old woman smiled at Su Xiao. Su Xiao didn't have a very strong sense of crisis. It wasn't that the old woman was so powerful that he couldn't perceive the danger, but that the other party really wasn't too strong.

Su Xiao checked the things on the stall, and the result was half a rotten apple, a bottle of light water that had turned green, and half a bottle of wine.

The things on the stall made Su Xiao somewhat surprised. This old woman... seemed to be a 'peer'.

"Your things aren't worth much."

Having found someone who could communicate normally, Su Xiao would, of course, inquire about information.

"You are a living one, you don't need my things. Only they need them. No, why haven't you been assimilated? Why haven't you been assimilated? This is unfair. You should also be assimilated..."

The more the old woman spoke, the more excited she became. Su Xiao gripped the hilt of Zhan Long Shan, preparing to fight.

"Living one, do you want to buy my things?"

The old woman's expression returned to normal, and she smiled, revealing only the two remaining teeth on her top and bottom jaws.

"..."

Su Xiao frowned, but soon, the black mark on the old woman's forehead attracted his attention.

"You are... Queen Rese."

"Rese!"

The old woman was struck by lightning. She immediately covered her wrinkled face with her hands and said urgently: "I am not, I am not Rese. The King would not have a woman as ugly as me. The King's woman is the most beautiful woman, not me."

The old woman got up in a panic and fled toward the depths of the Dead Silence City.

"What should we do?"

Veronique was asking Su Xiao if she should shield the sound.

"Follow."

Just as Su Xiao was about to move forward, a spatial fluctuation suddenly appeared. With a "crack," an arm covered in blood appeared, threw down a piece of parchment covered in bloodstains, and the arm was dragged back into the different space.

"Old Monk."

Su Xiao recognized the owner of this arm. He picked up the parchment on the ground, opened it, and found that it was actually a map, a map of the Dead Silence City, and there were some small words marked on it with blood.

It was in this gap that the old woman, Queen Rese, had already run far away and disappeared behind a corner. Su Xiao could recognize the other party because of the portrait in the palace and the mark on the other party's forehead.

Queen Rese, who was once hailed as the most beautiful woman in the empire, had actually turned into an old woman selling rotten apples. One could only say that the world is impermanent.

Su Xiao came to the edge of the open space and began to check the map sent by the Old Monk through some unknown method.

Su Xiao didn't recognize most of the words on it, but in the very center of the map, the Old Monk marked four buildings with blood.

'Hall of Birth, Treatment Institute, Sacrificial Altar, Supreme Sanctuary.'

On the Treatment Institute and the Supreme Sanctuary, there were two x's drawn with blood. The meaning was very clear: the Old Monk warned Su Xiao never to approach those sides.

Su Xiao observed the surrounding terrain and compared it with the map, judging that the tall building he had used as a landmark before was the Supreme Sanctuary, and not far behind it was the Hall of Birth.

Still with Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang clearing the way, Su Xiao began to head toward the Hall of Birth. But before he had walked out of the square full of sculptures, a figure about two meters tall, holding double hook blades and wearing black armor, blocked his way. The other party's aura intensity was similar to the black-haired little girl, no, it should be a bit stronger, but far from being as bizarre as the black-haired little girl.

That black-haired little girl was so bizarre that neither Su Xiao nor the Old Monk wanted to confront her head-on. It wasn't that they couldn't win, but the cost of winning was too tragic, so tragic that they would have to leave the Dead Silence City immediately.

"Woman, how many suns are there?"

The black-armored guard stared at Veronique.

"One."

Although Veronique didn't know what was going on, she answered immediately.

"Extreme Cultivator, how many stars are there?"

This time, the black-armored guard looked at Su Xiao. Clearly, the Charisma attribute showed an amazing effect at this time, although it was a debuff effect.

"..."

Su Xiao jumped backward and drew the long blade from his waist. If he could fight, he generally wouldn't talk nonsense with the enemy. Seeing this, Veronique immediately retreated to the side, shielding the sounds, vibrations, etc., within a hundred meters.

"Those who do not follow the will of heaven are heretics. Heretics must be sentenced to the punishment of splitting."

Grey smoke swirled around the black-armored guard, and he walked slowly into the square full of sculptures.
