When the gray and dilapidated door was slowly pushed open, and the scene inside was clearly presented in his field of vision, Shi Chen was stunned for a moment.

Directly in front is a flat road made of stones, which is wide and clean. Strange trees are planted every few meters along the street. There are various shops on both sides, and there are a few taller buildings, without exception. What's amazing is that all this is quite European medieval style...

However, it is dark now, there is not a single figure inside, everything is so silent.

"It's a lie...it's a lie."

Shi Chen stood there blankly, he rubbed his eyes and looked around again, as if he wanted to make sure that his eyes were not deceiving him.

If he hadn't been too weak, he would have wanted to exit, close the door again, and then push it open again to take a look inside.

Co-author: This is not the gate of a castle, but the gate of a city? !

"No need to hesitate, this is the 'City of Shadows' in the [Land of Shadows]."

Scathach's voice seemed to come from directly in front, echoing in all directions: "Master, next, please walk along the main street in front of you to the altar in the center of the city."

Altar... A trace of doubt flashed through Chen's mind, and the gloomy surrounding environment also made a fear arise in his heart.

But he still took steps and set off towards the "altar" that Shijiang said.

After all, it's coming...

Dark clouds cover the sky, and there is no trace of sunlight in the sky. No, maybe, even without these clouds, the sun will not appear in the sky.

There seems to be nothing but long nights here.

Shichen followed the main road in the middle and headed towards the center of the city. Along the way, he curiously looked at the buildings on both sides of the street.

Along the roadside, the trees that grew as they pleased were withered and shriveled, and all the fallen leaves on them were withered, and they were so bare that they seemed to be broken if they were broken.

Looking closely, he discovered that the buildings on both sides of the road seemed to have been there for a long time.

Under the erosion of time, even some of the walls of these middle-world buildings are cracked, as if they may collapse at any time.

"These lines are..."

There seemed to be some marks on the wall that looked like carvings and chisels. Shi Chen stepped forward and looked at them for a while: "I gave up. I can't understand it at all."

The passage of time has made the writing on it blurry. Moreover, even if it is still clear, these medieval writings are not recognizable.

Looking through the broken window, he glanced inside the house, but his eyes lit up.The furniture inside is simple and although not gorgeous, it is extremely neat.

A kerosene lamp was on in the house, the candle flame was flickering, and the log-colored desk was glowing. It was obviously not dusty, so it was obviously inhabited...

and many more!

Shi Chen withdrew his prying eyes, took a few steps back inconspicuously, silently returned to the center of the street, held his head high, and walked toward the center of the city.

Gradually, the steps became bigger and bigger, and he walked faster and faster.

Suddenly,

He ran wildly, not daring to move his eyes even an inch away from the front, as if there were some terrifying creatures lurking in the surrounding buildings.

Shijiang, save me! ! !

…………

Not long after, Shichen stood in front of a Gothic-style castle and remained silent for a long time.

What the hell is this an altar? !

Looking at the purple pointed arch in front of him, Shi Chen murmured:

"When I open the door this time, it should be a normal palace, not another city. My little heart can't stand such a torment."

Just when he was still hesitating to open the door.

"squeak……"

The door opened automatically.

Time: "!!!"

"Master, welcome to the City of Shadows."

At this moment, Scathach was in a lazy posture, with his long purple hair hanging down casually. He was wearing a fluffy round-neck knitted sweater that seemed to be an oversized one.

The loose sweater wraps up her plump buttocks, revealing two rounded, tight and delicate white long legs at the edges.

And then...it's gone?

Home Furnisher-chan...poof!

Shi Chen covered his heart, feeling that he had received a critical hit of [-] points, and all the psychological shock he had suffered before was worth it.

A beam of light named 'Shijiang' dispelled the shadow area in my heart.

"Master, don't worry, 'the dead will never rise'. Residents of the Kingdom of Shadow will never transcend the walls and appear on the ground."

Scathach looked at Shi Chen standing at the door, hesitating, thinking that Shi Chen was frightened because of the previous fright, and smiled:

"So, come in, I'll show you something."

Her smile is full of soft tenderness, like the big sister next door.

Shi Chen said calmly: "...Yeah."

After that, Scathach was in front, leading the time, and the two of them walked inside the castle, first through the circuitous corridors, and finally stepped onto the winding stairs.

On the way, Shichen followed Shijiang and took a slight look at the internal structure, layout and decoration of the castle.

He discovered that the walls in the corridor, the handrails beside the stairs, and the ceiling of the hall were all engraved with complex runes.

It has the same pattern as the city gate that Shi Shi pushed open at the beginning.

I won't admit my mistake,

Now his eyes could imprint almost everything they saw on his mind.

"What do these runes represent, rune magic?"

The original rune, the rune alphabet is a kind of incantation. As long as it is carved on wood, stone, metal or even any material, it can gain infinite power.

Ice, wealth, gods, riding, travel, protection, defense, search...

Shijiang and Gou Ge seem to know how to use it... Walking on the stairs, Shi Chang thought to himself.

"Here we are, Master."

Scathach's words came from ahead, interrupting Shi Chen's thoughts.

"what,"

Shi Chen scratched his head and said, "Sorry, I was distracted just now."

There was a whistling wind in his ears, and Shiji realized that he and Shi-chan had reached the highest point of this Gothic castle, the spire.

This is the center of this city of shadows. Standing here, you can almost overlook the entire city from a high place.

"Oh, I'm distracted, why are I distracted,"

Scathach held the window lazily and comfortably, and the night wind blew by, gently blowing her long silky hair and brushing her fair cheeks. She looked at Shichen with a smile on her face.

The red pupils exude a vague charm.

"..." Hour.

"Cough cough,"

A little cold sweat broke out on his forehead. He coughed a few times and forcefully changed the subject: "Well, Shi-chan, do you have anything important to do this time?"

If it weren't for the strong wind here, my heart would be beating so hard.

Who can stand this.

"Well, forget it, I won't tease you anymore,"

Scathach stopped smiling and said seriously: "Master, what can you see when you look at the distant city wall from here?"

"The city wall...has seven sides."

The time is a little unclear, so this is the commanding heights of the City of Shadows.

Following Shijiang's words, he looked down at the whole city from here, and suddenly discovered that the city wall here was not divided into four sides: east, west, south, and north.

But there are seven sides!

"What can you see from the city walls?"

"Wait a minute, let me take a closer look."

At this time, Shichen's vision has been greatly improved, and he can see normally even in extremely dark nights.

Close your eyes, hold your breath and concentrate, slowly guide the soul power into your eyes.

snapped open,

A glimmer of light shot out from his eyes, and in his sight, the city wall in the distance was blurry at first, then gradually became clear.

"how is this possible……"

When he saw the scene in his eyes clearly, Shi Chen's pupils suddenly shrank, as if he had seen something incredible.

The city wall as far as the eye can see, a thick city wall made of huge rocks, has a clear and translucent mirror in the center, and the smooth mirror reflects the face of Shi Chen.

"This is me...no, this is not me."

I saw that the figure appearing in the mirror did have the same face as Shi Chen, but he was holding a bloody spear in his hand, and his eyes were even more serious!

He turned his head and looked at the other wall next to him.

However, they saw that the rough stone surface of the city wall was also slowly surging, gradually forming a mirror like a lake.

What was reflected in it was still his face.

but,

The expression on that face was extremely serious, and the objects held in his hands were covered by a black mist, making it difficult to see what kind of weapons they were holding.

Then,

He scanned the seven city walls in turn, and was astonished to find that each city wall was like a huge floor-to-ceiling mirror, with his own face reflected on it.

Moreover, each face presents a different state:

Sober, serious, pious, crazy...

Moreover, only the one he saw holding the gun for the first time did not resist the object in his hand. The rest were covered by a black mist, as if they were covered with a layer of mosaic.

Seven walls, seven mirrors,

Seven me!
