the last gentleman

Chapter 431 Black Mouth
"It's so fast! And it's still changing in shape..."

The dead horse controlled by the black wolf Bernard changed during the gallop. After running for a distance of about a thousand meters, it has completely changed into the form of a black wolf, which is more wild, violent and extremely aggressive.
Yi Chen also noticed that the black armor on the wolf's body was constantly absorbing the dead bacteria in the air, no matter how long he galloped, he could maintain a full state.

After some running, Yi Chen became more interested in the 'dead horse'. If he could have such a mount, his journey in the old world would indeed be much more convenient.

Naturally, Berner also noticed the surprised expression of the young man behind him, and while speeding up further, he said:

"My warg ranks among the top three in the entire knight order in terms of speed, and also ranks in the top five in terms of aggression... In terms of mounts, it is one of the best."

"It's really great. I can feel the rhythm of death in this wolf and the almost perfect energy output. It must have been perfect before it was alive."

Bernard could hear that the young man did not flatter him, but praised and sighed from the heart, and he enjoyed such compliments very much.

"Senior, is the city of the dead in front of you newly built?"

"It has been built for a long time. After the fall of the evil sun, we established a city-state at this pass. At the same time, it also serves as the external base of our knight order, which is more conducive to our external expansion.

We've been confined behind the valley for so long, it's time to expand our territory. "

"Then when I pass through the pass later, do I need to go through the relevant clearance procedures inside the city-state?"

"Quanyuan Tomb has watched your live broadcast, and the boss has also spoken. This time, with me leading you, you can go directly to the depths of the original tomb regardless of various identity verifications.

If you are interested in joining the Knights at that time, you can ask me to be your recommender. "

"Thank you senior."

【Heikou City-Burnanmouth】

It is not so much a city-state, but more like a military fortress guarding a pass, and there are still a lot of traces of war within a few kilometers around Heikou City.

Although the potholes left by the war have been covered by the plague, and the remnants have been basically wiped out, there are still some fragments that cannot be completely erased, which is also a kind of fleshy metal that Yi Chen has seen.

"Did the Knights of the Tumor ever have a large-scale battle with the Knights of the Plague here?"The relationship between the two is really not that bad, it seems that it is necessary to hide the fact that I have been to the cancer palace. 』

Thinking of this, Yi Chen buried the cancer crystal presented by Ms. Olena deep in his brain, and sank it between the pools where the black liquid accumulated, so as not to be discovered.

As the dark wolf approached the Heikou city gate,

Because the black wolf Bernard had a high reputation in the original tomb, and his strength was at the top, the group of the dead hanging above the city gate began to spin when they saw the galloping wolf.
And the knots around their necks turned too.

The city gate organ connected to the other end of the rope was activated, and the thick gate of Heikou City slowly opened inward.

at this time,

A black shadow suddenly descended from the sky, spread its black wings and blocked the way.

Bernard also stopped the wolf immediately. A fierce light glared from under the wolf's helmet, and he yelled loudly with a completely torn bloody mouth: "Renato, what do you mean? How dare you block my way?"

Yi Chen, who was sitting at the back, also turned his head and looked at the road blocker.

The other party was wearing a black crow mask with no expression on it. His slender body was matched with a corset armor mostly made of cloth. The huge crow wings spread out behind him, almost completely blocking the city gate.

"Another plague knight... seems to be targeting me. The armor style and the breath of the dead are completely different from Mr. Bernard's. 』

"Bona, if you bring outsiders into the city unconditionally, I will naturally stop you.

In this special period, everyone must abide by the rules of entering the city, even outsiders invited by the boss.

He came from the outside world, mixed with blood that does not belong to us, and still alive.If he is carrying contraband, affecting the origin of the original tomb, and even affecting the boss, can you be responsible?Bernard.

Since I am the current person in charge of Heikou City, I have to ensure that everything is running normally. If you have any comments, you can directly report to the boss. If you want to break in, don’t blame me for using the power of Heikou City, Bernard. "

"Ah? A mere pass fortress wants to scare me...Come on, I just haven't killed enough!"

Bernard swung the giant sword of the tombstone directly, and when the blade fell, the whole city trembled slightly.

When things are about to get serious,

Yi Chen jumped into the room between the two, and bowed towards Berna.

"Thank you, Senior Bernard, for leading me to Heikou City. I don't completely belong to the dead, and I don't even belong to the old world. It's perfectly normal to be checked.

And before I went to the original tomb, I also specially brought a candle puppet that can accept fire, and wanted to experience the process of going deep into the realm of the dead.

After I go to the original tomb through formal procedures, I will visit Mr. Bernard again. "

Bernard waited ten seconds for the huge sword on the tombstone in his hand before slowly putting it down. He barely managed to utter normal words, "See you at the original tomb."

When he rode a warg through the city gate, he deliberately spat at the plague knight named Renato and the current head of Blackmouth City.

This scene made Yi Chen very embarrassed. He thought that the deceased was a very united group, but now it seems to be different from what he imagined.

Yi Chen immediately turned around, faced the person in charge of Heikou City, and saluted and apologized.

"There is no need to apologize. As the guest invited by the boss, you were originally eligible to go directly to the depths of the original tomb, but recently due to our expansion, a large number of living people have attracted hostility. Any risk must be considered."

"How do I make sure I'm not at risk?"

"Go to the bonfire alone, as long as you can get the fire in it, it means that you are harmless to the dead, and I will secretly monitor all your actions."

Finished.

The crow's feathers floated, and his figure disappeared into the dark night sky.

There is a pair of dark and moist eyes that are always spying on Yi Chen in the dark. As long as he is in Heikou City, this sense of spying will be everywhere.

Such snooping made the little grape salivate, it had never seen such delicious grapes since it left the cemetery.

It's just a little bit of fantasy, though.
If you want to win the eyes of this person, you will be chased and killed by the entire Plague Knights, and you will definitely die.

Stepping into the city gate, the whole Heikou City is extremely deserted. There are no shops, no residential buildings, and even few basic buildings. There are only black spiers with military functions standing in different areas, more like a military fortress .

When Yi Chen, the 'human being', came, he immediately attracted the eyes of a large number of wandering dead,

Some people are even ready to move, wanting to taste the never-before-seen death in Yi Chen, and even the possibility of being promoted because of it...

But when they approached one after another, they dispelled this idea when they felt the killing intent emanating from Yi Chen.

Although they are within the coverage of the original tomb, they will never die, even if they are completely killed, they can still wake up in a certain cemetery,

However, this comes at a price.

Every time it is revived, the individual's death limit will be reduced,
Once it falls below a certain limit, it will even cause the body to be unable to condense, and it can only exist in the form of an arm, a head, or an organ.

In the worst cases, the only option is to bond with animals or insects.

Right now, a wild dog controlled by a skull quickly passed by Yi Chen, and a centipede with multiple fingers could be seen in the corner not far away, or a mouse with heart tissue stuck to its back.

Yi Chen didn't stop, and found the only mountain path leading to the bonfire.

This mountain road is dilapidated, retaining the footprints of former climbers, a large number,

Even some areas have been completely sunken by trampling, and even the remnants of some climbers can occasionally be glimpsed, and the sound of flesh and bones being scorched can be heard.

It seems that those outsiders who come to perform the bonfire ceremony, once the ceremony fails and fail to obtain the fire, they need to throw themselves into the bonfire and add fuel to it at their own expense.

When Yi Chen stepped onto the mountain platform where the bonfire was, he froze suddenly.
Little Putao also jumped out at this moment, her eyes widened, and her mouth couldn't help oozing saliva, "The bonfire is actually burning firewood!"
