I Have A City In An Alternate World Chapter 520

Chapter 520

520 A strange conspiracy, an elven traitor!_1

This big fish had a round body and extremely elastic muscles. After it landed on the gra.s.s, it was struggling with all its might.

The guide’s eyes lit up when he saw the big fish. He quickly rushed forward and pressed the big fish to the ground.

At the same time, the guide stretched out his hand and a sharp hunting knife appeared in his hand. He then stabbed it into the big fish’s body.

As the blood was released, the big fish gradually stopped struggling and was as dead as dead could be.

Only at this moment did the guide stand up. He respectfully smiled at Tang Zhen and said, the meat of this kind of fish is extremely fresh and it’s rare to see it normally. I didn’t expect that it would be casually caught by Sir!

The guide had witnessed the scene just now and knew that this young man who seemed to be a commander was also a Lord-tier cultivator!

Tang Zhen gently nodded. He indicated to the guide to deal with the big fish and use it as tonight’s food.

Not long after, faint smoke rose from the camp. The Holy Dragon City cultivators had also pierced the big fish with wooden sticks and kept turning it over the fire.

There were many cuts on the fish’s body, and now that it was being roasted by the charcoal fire, it had all rolled up.

There was a big Bird that had been cleaned on the fire beside him. It was also roasted to a crisp on the outside and tender on the inside, and its fragrance was constantly spreading in all directions.

Fatty took a pile of spices and sprinkled some on it from time to time. He seemed to be enjoying it.

Just as Tang Zhen was flipping through a book, another group of foreign race cultivators arrived at the campsite. There were about forty to fifty of them.

After they arrived at the campsite, they swept a glance at Tang Zhen and the rest before going to another place to rest.

At the same time, a few foreign cultivators began to make rafts. They blew up some monster leather tubes, cut down a kind of bamboo-like tree, and tied them together.

It didn’t take long for a simple raft to be completed!

Tang Zhen swept a glance at these foreign race cultivators before lowering his head and ignoring them.

This was a public campsite, so it was normal to encounter other exploration teams. There was no need to make a fuss.

After waiting for a while, the food was all ready. Fatty tore the grilled fish and meat into fist-sized pieces, and everyone went forward to eat.

In addition to the roasted food, the Holy Dragon City soldiers also brought food such as dried meat. They mixed it with the edible fungi and made an extremely delicious hot soup.

After the fish was cooked, it was in a translucent state of oil, and a strong fragrance a.s.sailed the nose.

He put it in his mouth and tasted it. It melted as soon as it entered his mouth. At the same time, a strong umami filled his mouth, intoxicating him.

Eating a piece of meat and drinking a mouthful of soup, this meal made Tang Zhen extremely satisfied.

When night fell, several bonfires were lit on the gra.s.s again, driving away the gradually descending night.

Everyone tried their best to get closer to the fire to drive away the approaching fog and night so that they would not fall into the illusion.

Looking around, the scenery in the forest began to become blurry. It seemed that besides the bonfire, a thick gray fog had begun to rise in the surroundings.

The scenery around him disappeared. Because the fog was too thick, it slowly turned into solid darkness.

In such an extremely dark environment, the fire seemed to be the only spiritual sustenance and comfort.

While this darkness made people feel guilty, their eyes naturally stared at the flame in front of them, afraid that it would suddenly extinguish.

Tang Zhen sat beside the fire. His mental energy continued to spread out as he sensed the changes in the surrounding environment.

A cold and strange aura began to spread outside the fire, as if there was something terrifying hidden inside.

After some time, Tang Zhen suddenly discovered that other than the bonfire in front of him, the other bonfires in the camp had all disappeared.

Indistinctly, something seemed to be wandering around in the pitch-black environment.

Listening carefully, there seemed to be a strange sound that was constantly entering his ears, making him feel upset.

He shouted a few words, and the others seemed to have disappeared. He did not receive any response.

He recalled the guide’s warning. Once they encountered such a situation, they must not panic. They only needed to watch the flames and persist until dawn.

He swept a glance at the surrounding Holy Dragon City cultivators and found that their expressions were normal. There was no fear or panic at all.

The world of loucheng was strange and dangerous, and any kind of situation could happen, so these cultivators were already used to it.

“You guys sit here and don’t move, I’ll go out and take a look!”

When the Holy Dragon City cultivators heard this, they hurriedly opened their mouths to stop him. However, they were stopped by Tang Zhen with a smile.

Standing up from beside the fire, Tang Zhen strode into the darkness under the watchful eyes of the Holy Dragon City cultivators.

Everything in front of him was still pitch-black. Even though Tang Zhen’s eyesight was extraordinary, he was still unable to see anything.

After taking two steps, he turned back and was surprised to find that the fire behind him had long disappeared.

He tried to take two steps back, but he still didn’t see any fire. It was still dark.

Tang Zhen took another two steps back with an expressionless face. However, he still did not see the bonfire from earlier. It was as if it had completely disappeared from this world.

Obviously, this black curtain had a misleading effect, causing people to lose their sense of direction and unknowingly distance themselves from the fire!

This kind of strange encounter immediately aroused Tang Zhen’s curiosity.

He activated the [ dark world stealth technique ] and Tang Zhen’s figure directly disappeared from his original spot.

Being in the dark World, Tang Zhen’s eyes flashed with a trace of bewilderment when he observed the surrounding environment.

The cultivators and the bonfire that had originally disappeared reappeared in front of Tang Zhen’s eyes. However, it gave off an extremely strange feeling when combined with the surrounding scene.

The originally burning bonfire was now emitting a faint light, illuminating a small area around it.

The cultivators of the Holy Dragon City surrounded the area illuminated by the fire and were chatting casually. Nothing seemed out of the ordinary.

However, in the area outside the light, there were countless translucent spirits surrounding it, trying to stare at the cultivators with ferocious expressions.

These spirit bodies had different shapes, and they retained their looks when they died, which made them look terrifying and strange.

For some unknown reason, these spirits seemed to be extremely afraid of the light of the flame, so they did not dare to come forward at all and could only wander back and forth in the black curtain outside the light.

Tang Zhen observed for a while more and discovered that all the Holy Dragon City cultivators were covered in a layer of faint light, causing the spirit bodies to not dare to take a step closer.

This light came from the exorcism items of the Holy Dragon City cultivators, which had an extremely powerful restraining effect on spirit bodies.

As for the elven cultivators and the foreign cultivators who came later, they did not have this light. Therefore, the number of spirits around them was several times more than the Holy Dragon City cultivators!

When Tang Zhen saw this, he was already clear that these spirit bodies in front of him were the source of the strange illusions in the nightmare forest.

After figuring out the cause of the matter and making sure that these spirit bodies could not harm the cultivators of Holy Dragon City, Tang Zhen was ready to leave The Dark World to rest.

However, at this moment, a change occurred!

One of the elven cultivators suddenly made a move and put out the fire in front of him.

No one had expected this to happen, so Yue qianhua and the others were stunned. They didn’t have time to stop the elf cultivator.

The moment the fire was extinguished, the spirits around them laughed silently and pounced on the elf cultivators in the darkness.
