Chapter 694 The Western Boundary of the Gate of Reality
The person who appeared in front of the statue at this moment was the old man wearing coarse clothes and with a head full of gray and messy hair - El!
Jiang Chen was deeply impressed by him. When he was in the Hermit Lane of Lihuo City, he was squatting on the ground, holding bowls and chopsticks, and kept picking up rice.
After eating, I even used my tongue to scrape around the remaining grease in the bowl.
He comes across as a sloppy and poor old man.
But such an old man actually said to his apprentice Erliang that he was the most powerful assassin on the continent.
At that time, Jiang Chen was doubtful.
But now, he suddenly felt that the old man might not be bragging.
After all, the other party is a believer of the Netherworld God of Death, and he seems to be very respected.
However, what surprised Jiang Chen the most now was: Could it be that from the very beginning, the mission to reward the key to the door to reality was just to bait him?
"Young man, long time no see."
Immediately, Il's voice sounded, and he weighed the colorful light ball in his hand while speaking.
He holds the key to the door of reality.
"It turns out that you, the old man, are a believer of the Netherworld God of Death."
Jiang Chen glanced at the key first, and then said slowly to the other party.
"Haha, yes, not many people know about this. They are either dead, or they have become believers in the Lord like me. What do you want to choose?"
El grinned, revealing a pair of incomplete yellow teeth.
"Actually, I have a question."
Jiang Chen thought for a while and said: "The key to the door of reality should always be controlled by you. Why did the mission reward us at that time with a clue map instead of directly giving us the key?"
He paused and continued: "Could it be that you are trying to lure me here with the map to take the bait? That shouldn't be the case. How did you know that I would participate in this mission?"
"Of course I didn't know you would participate in this mission. One thing you said is right. I did use the map to lure people into the trap."
El narrowed his eyes and smiled: "However, it is not aimed at you. These two keys have been used to choose believers for the Lord from the beginning."
Jiang Chen couldn't help but raise his eyebrows: "So, what a coincidence, I took the bait?"
"It may seem unexpected that you come here, but it is actually reasonable."
El replied: "My task is to assassinate the city lord or bishop. There are not many people who can complete this task. Since you are capable enough, it will naturally be you."
"So that's it. Even if most people accept the task, they still can't complete it. In the end, there is a high probability that it will still fall on me."
Jiang Chen whispered to himself, and then said: "This old man's method is really good. I'm not bragging. Your method can indeed screen out very good people."
At the same time, Jiang Chen also understood why there was such a strange task of assassinating the city lord or the bishop.
These two represent the two largest forces in mankind-the Royal Palace and the Holy See.
It's understandable if someone wants to assassinate one of them.
But it seems a bit unreasonable to choose the assassination target arbitrarily between the two.
Of course, if the person who issued this mission was a believer of the evil god, then it would all make sense.
"hehe……"
At this time, Irgan laughed: "Mediocre people are not qualified to be believers of the Lord, you should feel honored."
"Yes, I'm honored."
Jiang Chen said something duplicity, and then stretched out his hand: "Old man, please give me the key to the door of reality."
"I will give you."
El did not hand over the key, but continued: "But before I give it to you, I want to remind you that if you don't come back to perform faith sacrifices in a month, I will kill you, again and again, don't doubt me Can it be done?”
"Old man, please stop shouting and killing me. I will be back."
Jiang Chen paused, then asked: "By the way, what is the faith sacrifice you just mentioned?"
"It's a ritual. After it's completed, you're considered a believer in the Lord. Then you'll live there."
After El said that, he handed over the key.
Jiang Chen did not hesitate and quickly took the crystal key that exuded colorful light.
【You have obtained the key to the door of reality! 】
[Reality Door Key: After use, you can open the door to reality and teleport there! 】
"Finally got it!"
Jiang Chen was very excited.
He took a quick deep breath to regain his composure.
Immediately, he chose to use the key!
Suddenly, a guiding beam fell from the sky and landed on Jiang Chen.
Unlike other teleportations, this beam is colored.
Just before Jiang Chen teleported away, Yier's cold voice sounded:
"No matter where you go this month, I will find you. Don't forget your promise."
Immediately afterwards, Jiang Chen disappeared from the spot.
He felt that he had entered a dark vortex, and the process was very long.
[You have been teleported to the extreme west wall! 】
After an unknown amount of time, a system prompt appeared.
Jiang Chen felt a bright light pouring into his eyes.
He quickly rubbed his eyes, and then saw a huge stone door appearing not far ahead.
The top of the stone gate reaches the sky and the bottom reaches the earth. Compared with it, Jiang Chen is like an ant.
Moreover, this stone door is engraved with countless magic circles and rune marks.
It seems that magic, martial arts, and other powers all over the world can find corresponding prototypes on it.
At this moment, the stone door is slowly opening.
Jiang Chen did not go in immediately, but murmured in surprise: "I was actually sent to the Far West Boundary?"
The so-called Far West Boundary is the westernmost end of this world.
Although the location of the Reality Gate is remote and not fixed, Jiang Chen never thought that it would be at the boundary!
He has never been to such a place.
