Urban Witcher

Ye Shaoyang nodded and asked, "Senior Brother Mao, what was that zombie just now? You have studied zombies, have you seen them?"

Mao Xiaofang thought about it carefully, and said: "There are too many kinds of zombies. The conventional ones include dry corpses, blood corpses, water corpses, flying zombies, etc. You understand this, but under different forms, many unconventional zombies will be produced, and there is no trajectory to follow." According to it, the one just now has corpse aura, strictly speaking, it must be a zombie, but how it formed, I don't know, but..."

"But what?" Ye Shaoyang asked.

Mao Xiaofang thought for a while, and said: "There is no fur on the body, it is usually related to blood, and the crawling in and out of its face are corpse insects. Corpse insects cannot survive for a long time on the ground, so I deduce that this zombie It must have come from the ground."

Coming from the ground...Ye Shaoyang thought of those ghosts, they all came out of the ground. Obviously, although the zombie is difficult to deal with, but like those ghosts, it is only a servant. What really drives all this is another Mystical power. All kinds of signs indicate that there must be something underground in this valley.

Ye Shaoyang said: "I'll talk about it later, let's talk about the topic just now. I think there are two possibilities. One possibility is that this valley is the seal of the mysterious evil thing hiding behind. What kind of power does it have?" It is sealed in the valley, and cannot go beyond the valley."

Mao Xiaofang nodded slowly and said, "It's possible."

In the magic world, this kind of thing often happens. Some evil things are because they are ranked in the immortal class, or they have an immortal body (such as the corpse queen). The magic world has no choice but to forcibly seal them. Let’s get up, but more often than not, some evil things are not immortal, but they are too powerful, so there is no way to forcibly kill them. The only option is to seal up a small area so that they cannot go out and make trouble. I will talk about other things in the future. Although due to many chances and coincidences, some evil creatures broke through the seal and reappeared in the world, but it was really helpless to seal them back then.

"There is another possibility, of course it is not very likely," Ye Shaoyang looked at the several peaks not far behind him, and spit out four words: "Scope of influence!"

Mao Xiaofang was startled: "The sphere of influence?"

Sphere of influence is a special term in the magic world, and it has existed since ancient times. Behind it is a rule about the magic world—to be exact, between evil things.

The relationship between evil things is just like animals in nature. After the mountains, rivers and rivers of China, there are many places where heaven and earth are full of aura, or places where yin is prosperous and yang is declining, ranging from a mountain to a house where people have died. These places are often destroyed by some evil cultivators. Because resources are limited, of course I don’t want to share it with others, so once there is a new evil thing to snatch, it will have to fight, the winner will stay, the loser will run away, and the one who can’t escape will be killed. destroy.

The biggest difference between evil things and human beings is that they don't know how to form alliances. At most, they accept a group of younger brothers, or seek refuge with the strong. However, evil creatures of the same level will never join forces, and generally practice independently, but in the world of human magic, they help each other and defeat them one by one. Otherwise, if the evil creatures from all over the world unite to form an alliance similar to the magic world, it is unknown what kind of turmoil will be caused in the world.

As for the ghost domain, the Wuji ghost king is taking this path, with great influence, but it is limited to the ghost domain and has no influence on the human world.

If a place is favored by two evil creatures of similar strength successively, and they cannot kill each other, but for some reason they both have no choice but do not want to find a new lair, then a consensus will be reached: Each occupies a place and draws a clear boundary, and neither side can cross the boundary. This is like the territory of ferocious beasts in the natural world. Once it invades other people's territory, it will be an endless fight. This kind of battle will affect the cultivation of both parties, and it is easy to cause accidents and be targeted by mages.

So unless there are any accidents, under normal circumstances, once the evil thing has set the boundaries of its sphere of influence, it will never go beyond.

Mao Xiaofang thought of this, and asked Ye Shaoyang: "You mean, the exit of this valley is the boundary of the sphere of influence?"

Ye Shaoyang said: "There is such a possibility. We have tested it before. Whether there is an enchantment in the valley, I don't know if there is one underground."

Mao Xiaofang stood up, looked at the mountains in the distance, and said, "Is there any evil thing nearby? The evil thing in the valley is already strong enough, and it must be very easy for this evil thing to draw a boundary with him." Impressive."

Ye Shaoyang said: "It doesn't matter, let's leave here first, we were reckless last night, and the other party didn't find us first, otherwise we might really not be able to get out of this valley."

The spiritual power of the Seven Star Dragon Spring Sword is accumulated by absorbing the essence of the sun and the moon. After using it once, more than half of it has been consumed. If it is used again within a few hours, the effect will be greatly reduced.

Mao Xiaofang knew there was a town nearby, so he rushed over with Ye Shaoyang, and found a place to stay for one night before talking.

Because horses could not be ridden on the mountain road before, both of them let the horse go, so they walked for two hours on the mountain road to the town Mao Xiaofang mentioned.

Like all the worlds in the mountains, this small town is also the core of all nearby villages. Although it is a bit small and too remote, in Ye Shaoyang's eyes, it looks like ancient times.

There is a small inn in the town, Mao Xiaofang lived here once last time, knew the way, took Ye Shaoyang to look for it, found a room to stay in, and asked the boss to cook some food.

In the room, the two discussed it, and it was impossible to directly investigate the valley: Although they knew that the mysterious force was hiding under the valley, they couldn't find the specific location, so there was no way. If it is a hundred years later, Ye Shaoyang can find an excavator or something to dig in the past, but it is completely unfeasible in this era, and it is impossible to hire people to dig the ground, otherwise it will be too dangerous.

After much deliberation, I still inquired from the side. This is also a common method in the magic world: since there are evil things in that valley, it is impossible for the mountain people living nearby to be ignorant, at least they will know some legends, so the two decided to inquire first before talking about it.

After returning to his room, Ye Shaoyang thought about his experience in the valley first, and made sure that this was not an ordinary supernatural event. Not to mention that he only has the strength of a real person now, even in his heyday, he might not be able to handle it. However, since the With my own character, it is naturally impossible to ignore this matter. It can only be investigated step by step.

This was also the first big trouble I encountered after I came to this world. Ye Shaoyang felt that everything was fine, but there were no helpers around, Mao Xiaofang counted as one, but it was still too few.
