Chapter 499 Elaine's Hometown
"Ellen..."
For an extraordinary powerhouse, it is not difficult to control your emotions, and you can completely keep yourself in a state of absolute calmness during battle.
However, at this time, Tang Yu found that Elaine's spirit by his side fluctuated violently for a moment.
"Could it be that?"
Elaine looked into the distance and seemed to want to imprint this image firmly in her mind. After a while, she slowly said, "Yes, this city is where I lived."
In the past 18 years, she has not left the city, nor has she seen the scene outside the city.
But at this moment,
Looking from a distance, through the collapsed city wall, she saw the ruins in the city, the low houses that had been buried, and the gaps in the city wall that she had seen with her own eyes.
fresh in memory.
"There is a discovery here, it seems to be a crystal mine."
Tang Yuwang looked towards the low mountain where Zapor was located, and immediately came to the mountain in a flash.
There are still some obvious human creations left here, and more are corpses, both human and dark creatures.
The mine is deep, and there are very few small source crystal blocks on the walls. The energy contained is weak, and there is not even a single unit. It can only be regarded as source crystal fragments.
Many branch caves inside have collapsed, and if you concentrate on perception, you can only detect weak energy fluctuations.
There were also many dark creatures that were still alive, which were eliminated by Zapor with a wave of his hand.
"This place may have been a small source crystal mine, but now, the ore vein has been abandoned. After violent mining, no source crystal can be born here."
They have dug many caves that have collapsed, some of which are old, and the dead human corpses have been turned into dead bones.
"Poor poor poor, I have never seen such a tattered crystal mine!" Xie Yi muttered, "It's not as good as my income from playing cards."
Tang Yu kicked Xie Yi out of the mine, and saw that Elaine kept going deeper into the cave, sighed and chased after him.
For a long time, Elaine has the label of calm, rational and strong in his eyes.
At this moment, she acted like a real eighteen-year-old girl.
A little girl who lost her parents.
Elaine broke through the blocking rocks all the way, and occasionally stopped beside the corpse whose face could no longer be seen, her footsteps getting faster and faster, and her tightly clenched hand in her sleeve trembled slightly.
Tang Yu didn't speak, just followed silently behind him.
Three years ago, Elaine lost her parents, so the place where they work is probably the mine outside the city, right? I don't know how many people were buried.
Along the way, he saw hundreds of bones.
Some of them died for only a few months, and a few corpses still had recognizable blurred faces, but more were eaten by dark creatures, turned into bones, or buried in unknown corners.
once, twice, three times,
Elaine searched the entire mine, and she searched all the places where there were traces of human beings.
She turned around and smiled very far-fetched. In those sapphire eyes, there was an unstoppable rippling wave like a lake.
"Hug, sorry, I was the one who delayed everyone's time—"
She drooped, her mouth gagged before she finished speaking.
An opened bottle of Qingling wine was handed to his mouth.
"What are you talking about, do we still need to apologize?"
Elaine nodded heavily, took the clear spirit wine, raised her head, and drank it in one gulp.
She drank too hastily, the wine seeped from the corners of her mouth, dripped, and flowed down her collarbone. Her beautiful long hair also looked a little messy.
She doesn't care.
Suddenly, sobbing.
"I thought I had let go and thought I could be strong..."
"I really want to retrieve their bones and erect a monument for them..."
Tang Yu silently borrowed his shoulder, but the tears could only pass through the cold armor.
He thought about it, and suddenly thought of a way.
Secretly removed a strand of Elaine's hair, using this as a medium, maybe Xingling Xingyue could fortune tell the position of Elaine's parents.
He didn't say it right away.
Time has passed and there have been too many accidents. The divination may not be successful. If there is hope and then disappointment, it will be even more distressing.
'When the celestial spirit Xingyue is found, tell Elaine again. ’
Elaine's mood was low, and it didn't last long.
When the two walked out of the mine, she was the calm and frosty Mage again, as always.
Shay, who was squatting at the entrance to observe the distance, immediately ran forward with a smile.
Tang Yu asked directly, "Do you understand the situation in the city?"
"We just observed it from a distance. This city is divided into the inner city and the outer city. The outer city walls have basically been damaged. Only the inner city walls are still intact, and the human beings inside are in the inner city without incident."
Tang Yu nodded, "Elian, Luo Zhe, Xie Yi, Winnie, Nancy, Xiaoli... You guys come into the city with me... Xingling Xingyue, Zapor, you stay outside the city on guard."
Said, when passing by the side of the star spirit, he sent the strand of hair into the palm of the star spirit, and at the same time ordered it in the contract.
Then, with Elaine and the others, they approached this dilapidated city.
...
"This is the artisan district, this is the ghetto, this is... where I used to live."
Tang Yu looked at the small wooden house that had collapsed, and then looked at Elaine, she was still calm.
The crumbling log cabin was originally a family with four walls. Naturally, she could not find anything, but Elaine still dug out the tattered bed board from the ruins and put it into the space ring.
The city area is not small.
Although this side of the world is similar to the medieval pattern, the pre-apocalyptic kingdom, the noble lords divided the land. But after all, they are high martial arts and have rune technology. Most of the living standards of ordinary people and low-level awakened people are the same as those of ancient times, but the nobles are different.
And just with the power of the Awakened, in terms of construction, it is countless times more convenient than in ancient times.
The area is much larger than Lindong, the green shade, and perhaps the undeveloped open space on the floating land, can be compared.
They walked through many places in the outer city, and there were collapsed houses everywhere, only a few sturdy ones still stood. Crushed stones, under the broken planks and wooden slats, crushed many rancid corpses.
Valuable items are almost invisible. There are also some merchants living in the outer city, but some ruins have obvious traces of rummaging.
far away,
A few dark creatures roamed, and when they heard the movement, they rushed over and were frozen into ice sculptures.
Tang Yu turned his head to the side, not far outside the city, a big river flows through. It is conceivable that before the end of the world, this mighty river brought prosperity to the city.
Several people walked towards the inner city.
After passing through a large area of ruins, I finally saw the distant city wall, the red light that lit up sporadically - the light of torches.
It should be daytime at this time, but under the cover of the thick fog, it is still dark, just like before the rainstorm.
only slightly better than night,
Tang Yu and the others did not hide their figures, until when the distance was less than 200 meters, the sergeant guarding the city finally shouted:
"Who? Stop!"
Thanks for the 500 coin reward from "Wandering Eternal". . . .
