Dominate the Treacherous Realm

　　 But doing this will inevitably lead to the yard of a nearby house. After all, not all roofs are connected. As soon as he jumped off the roof, Jenkins found a pool of fresh blood under his boots. He looked around in surprise and saw that the blood stains under the moonlight clearly extended to the well in the yard.

　　 "Water well? No way?"

　　 He crept to the side of the well and looked down. He couldn't see anything in the dark. After putting on his monocle, his vision was restored, but only to see that the surface of the well water was calm.

　　 "The injured man jumped into the well? Is there a secret tunnel down the well? No, I don't want to jump into the well... and this matter obviously has nothing to do with me. Why should I be nosy?"

　　 Even though he thought so, he did not leave in the end. The cat, who sensed Jenkins's dangerous actions, immediately cancelled the projection and returned to the warm and comfortable Loen bedroom. Then he thumped ~ Jenkins jumped into the water.

　　 The diameter of the well head of this well is very large, and I am afraid it is not just for this family to take water. Now in urban areas, such wells can only be found in slums. After all, the coverage rate of tap water pipes in urban areas has been claimed to have reached more than 75% five years ago.

　　 "I'm really crazy."

　　 Jenkins thought of this when he jumped into the water and touched the cold well water. He held his breath and dived down, groping for a hole in the side wall. Swim to the side along the entrance of the cave, and within a few tens of seconds, I felt a faint light on the top of my head. So he immediately surfaced up and wiped the water off his face with his sleeves. When he opened his eyes, he saw the neat sewer pipes lit by a row of candles mixed with spices. The side walls of the pipes were carved into pieces. The ceremonial lines, at the end of the pipe, there is an entrance that emits white light surrounded by arches made of stacked stones.

　　 This is obviously also part of the huge underground pipeline system of Nolan Underground, but because of the collapse of the other end of the pipeline, it is not connected to any other part. The only way to enter this pipe is the well that passes through the ground. Of course, there may be other ways, but Jenkins hasn't found it yet.

　　 The movement he emerged from the water shocked several figures resting against the wall. When these people walked to the area covered by the candle light, Jenkins saw that they were not humans.

　　 "Bonechewer?"

"Humanity?"

　　 Both sides were a little surprised, but immediately realized that this was the enemy.

　　 The aliens drew their spine as a weapon and rushed towards Jenkins standing in shallow water. Jenkins hurriedly moved the surface of the water and splashed them at them, while [Freezing Ice] quickly cooled the liquid. This formed an ice ring made of hard ice beside him, but this ice ring was crushed by the bone weapons in the hands of the aliens in a few seconds.

　　Bonechewers are considered to be a special subspecies of ordinary humans, a special race formed after the fall of humans. They feed on various bones, and can manipulate bones outside the same race as their own weapons, and when they hold weapons cast from their own bones, these weapons have powerful anti-extraordinary characteristics.

　　The adult individuals of the Bonechewer population are regarded as melee masters, so the best response strategy when facing them is a long-range spell attack. But Jenkins couldn't get a long distance in this narrow pipe. Seeing that the situation was not good, he plunged into the water again. The Bonechewer also rushed into the water while shouting in unintelligible language, with a weapon in his hand. Hit the water.

　　 The cold air spread from the bottom of the water, first a thin layer of frost appeared, and then ice cubes floated up from the bottom of the water. The aliens hadn't figured out what was going on, the skin touching the water surface felt numb, and then all the parts under the water surface were frozen in the water.

　　 Jenkins poked his head out of the deep water area. Seeing that his move was effective, he extended his hand to the surface of the water, soaked it in some water, and then slammed it out. This drop of water turned into ice beads while flying rapidly in the air, and then successfully penetrated the skull of the bonechewer closest to Jenkins like a bullet.

　　 "It works!"

　　 With joy in his heart, he stretched out his right hand and grabbed it in the water, then dived until his feet touched the ground, and jumped up suddenly. As the upper body jumped out of the water, his right hand quickly pushed forward.

Suddenly, the white cold air and ice beads were pushed out in a fan shape. At the static moment when he burst out of the water, the ice crystals spread in the air, and the ice beads in the thin cold mist split the uncondensed water waves and flew out, piercing through. Behind all the obstacles in front of him, a dense small hole was printed on the side wall.

Chapter 1375 Chapter 1352

　　 After all the enemies guarding the closed pipe were solved, Jenkins came out of the water. While observing the surroundings while steaming his clothes with flames, he found the owner of the bloodstain that "guided" him to this place.

　　 The owners of those bloodstains are also heterogeneous Bonechewers, but they were killed by Jenkins a few minutes ago. His chest was severely injured, and the upper body protected by the bone armor was constantly oozing blood. The reason for coming here is no longer known, but according to Jenkins's guess, the high probability is that after being injured by the church, he wants to find someone to treat his injury. After all, this is also a fatal injury.

　　 But he didn't expect to escape so carelessly and draw Jenkins over, and he didn't know whether this should be regarded as his bad luck or Jenkins's too good luck.

　　 simply searched this not-so-long pipeline, and found that it had been completely transformed into a "warehouse" for the entrance to the treacherous realm. On every inch of the pipe wall, there are special rituals that match each other. These rituals are derived from the knowledge of aliens. Although Jenkins can’t understand, he is also a Level 5 bestower. He can barely understand the role of these rituals. Connect "Guide", "Enclosed" and "Protection".

　　 "They have been prepared for a long time, and they also know that the entrance of the sacred land will collapse after being used illegally, so they will arrange a ceremony in advance to guide the collapse of the entrance to reshape? The knowledge of the aliens is really great."

　　 squeezed the ferry ticket in his pocket, made up his mind and walked firmly into the light gate step by step.

　　 The familiar feeling of dizziness, even if you close your eyes, the bizarre illusion cannot be dispelled. After touching the solid ground, Jenkins couldn't help but retching for a while, only to find that the surroundings were as dark as night, and only the dark red unknown light appeared in the distance.

　　 There were four people around, but none of them showed the discomfort he felt when he first entered the treacherous realm. This is of course abnormal. Even if everyone did not enter here from Nolan at the same time, due to the unity of the timeline of the treacherous world, it stands to reason that Jenkins should directly cut into the time point when everyone first entered the treacherous world together.

　　 "Oh, Mr. White Cat, you are really here!"

　　 The place where the five people are located resembles a small square where they have been born in troubled times and a sacrificial place. The ground is paved with white uneven stone bricks, surrounding the sacrificial place, and the towering strange stone sculptures make people fearful. Weeds grew around the sacrifice grounds, and the grasses twisted together, like arms reaching out to the sky, and like tentacles of indescribable evil things.

　　 Jenkins saw Mr. White Cat immediately. He leaned against the stone sculpture on one side and looked at Jenkins vigilantly.

　　 Seeing the other side's vigilance, Jenkins explained:

　　 "It's me, Mr. Candle with no cat. I happened to meet Mr. Hood, and he entrusted me to rescue you... What is going on here?"

　　Because he proved his identity, Mr. White Cat immediately explained the matter of this slyland. Because there are other people here, he won't mention anything before he enters the deception. Just talking about this deception, the problem is quite serious:

"Actually this time, the horror has already cycled three times. The first time was me and the lady over there. We didn’t die after our failure, but we did everything from scratch. The second time this one came from the church. The night watchman appeared, so we learned about Nolan's situation at the time; the third time this gravekeeper also entered here, Mr. Candle, you belong to the fourth cycle.

Specifically, this time the rules of the treacherous world have been distorted. The good thing is that even if we don’t find the door to leave here as required, we won’t die because of it, but will start all over again; the bad thing is that every time we do Failure will cause alien species outside the material world to use the gate to go to the material world when they restart in the treacherous world. "

　　 "What are the rules this time and what are we going to do?"

　　 Jenkins looked around while talking. The dark sky and the inexplicable dark red light in the distance are all reminiscent of the **** scene in the story.

"Wait a little longer, there will be a'person' showing up to tell us the rules...Although I have listened to it three times, I may know where I went wrong the first three times. Remember, candles Sir, once the person announces the start, you don’t have to worry about anything, just run forward, you can’t delay a minute or a second. Also, what’s going on with Nolan now? What happened to our three failures? What are the consequences?"

　　 The last question is not only the question of Mr. White Cat, but also the question of several others. Two of these four were gifters from the Orthodox Church, but the time of entry was very unfortunate. They were all before Jenkins reported the news of the entrance to the deception.

　　 They accidentally discovered the entrance to the treacherous realm guarded by the aliens. After a fight, they found that they couldn't beat the imminent disaster, so they were forced to flee here to take refuge.

"The time is now at 2:10 in the morning, and the whole city is still under martial law. The big riots have not yet appeared, but according to the law that each new wave of alien species is more and stronger than the previous wave, if we cannot end before dawn Nolan will be in big trouble with this matter."

　　 While several people were talking, Jenkins suddenly heard someone coughing behind him. Turning around and looking around, the woman holding the hourglass did not know when she appeared there. She looked like a human, but both feet were sheep's hooves, and the smell of sulfur around her became heavier after she appeared. This was undoubtedly a demon or something similar to a demon.

　　 "I didn't expect someone to come in again, so that's okay, maybe you have a chance to find a way to get out of here this time."

　　 The woman said in a sharp voice, every time her pronunciation is echoed, and in accordance with the environment here, people will inevitably feel uncomfortable.

"Did you see the red light on the horizon? Find its source. There is the door. Your time is only ten minutes. When I switch the hourglass up and down, it can start. So, what's the problem? "

　　 she asked everyone.

　　 Everyone else is ready to run, while Jenkins looked at the ground and asked loudly:

　　 "What do you have to do with the alien species who use the treacherous state in violation of the rules?"

　　 "It doesn't matter, but they just took advantage of it."

"So you have a contradiction with them? If it weren't for them, you would have won the first time the deception ends, and you have already obtained the qualification to go to the material world. How about we cooperate, you give us some hints, we return to the material world After that, immediately punish those who caused it all."

　　 "But if I give you a hint, I am a loser no matter what. Humans, don't be careful with the devil. Now the ten-minute countdown starts, and I look forward to meeting you at the beginning of the fifth cycle."

Chapter 1376 The Red Hell

　　 The old man who looked exactly like a devil turned the hourglass upside down as he spoke. Jenkins turned around and ran, only to find that the others had already set off.

　　 It seems that there is no path next to the sacrificial field, but from the grass facing the edge of the female devil, you can find high steps. After jumping up, I could see the faint path from the barren weeds, and now the five people ran along the road in the direction of the dark red light.

　　 is not a single wild grass overgrown around it. Compared to the grassland, it is more like a dilapidated village in a horror story. Beside the trail, you can faintly see the collapsed houses and even windmills, of course, there are fire pits and wandering shadows.

　　 After running for less than 30 seconds, the fork in the road appeared diagonally forward.

　　 There is a street sign in the middle of the two fork roads, and the text on it has disappeared and is unrecognizable.

　　 "Choose any road, there will be many forks in the future, don't be wasted by thinking!"

　　 Mr. White Cat who ran in the front said loudly, this should be for Jenkins. Then he ran into the road leading diagonally forward, which was a downhill road, and a bridge hole several hundred feet away could be seen faintly.

　　 Others also have their own choices. Jenkins was at the end, after thinking about it, he ran to the road ahead on the right.

　　 This road is an uphill road, and it takes a lot of effort to run. And the road is not smooth, and occasionally I get tripped by a stone.

　　 The more you walk in the direction of that light, the more intense the red light that appears in the dim environment. However, instead of providing illumination, it caused a vague and hazy layer of red fog to appear in the field of vision.

　　 Jenkins didn't know that he had made several fork choices. In short, there was no one in front of him, and he didn't know where he was.

　　 The current environment is more and more like the **** he imagined, with the red light everywhere and the weedy countryside overgrown with weeds. Even the best writer can't describe this kind of fear.

　　 Endure the discomfort and continue to run wildly under the blessings of [Cat’s Elegance] and [Titan’s Power], a brick bridge appeared in front of him, and he ran up to find that the middle of the bridge was broken. So he leaped forcefully with the potential energy of running, but when his body was in the air, a black tentacles with lumps stretched out from the deep hole under the bridge.

"what?"

　　 Jenkins was frightened, and subconsciously threw a punch. He couldn't borrow force in the air, so he was knocked into the air like a baseball hit by a bat.

　　 But fortunately, the range of the pit was only under the bridge. When he landed on the ground, he landed on the rock beside the bridge, and climbed up the towering rock wall to be able to return to the other side of the bridge.

　　 Just now, Mr. White Cat did not say that in addition to running, he must be careful of the enemy, but this may be something he takes for granted, so there is no need to explain.

　　 Anyway, since touching the tentacles in the deep pit, Jenkins has run more carefully, for fear that someone will give him another surprise from below.

　　 then ran forward, seeing the small manor standing in the vaguely front, the red light seemed to be emitted from the back of the small building in the manor. Jenkins quickened his pace with joy, but suddenly heard someone calling his name on the other side of the road.

　　 "Jenkins~"

　　 This is a woman's voice, and it is very similar to Hathaway's voice. He couldn't help looking there, and then saw the black demon with a scythe and curved horns in the red mist, pulling Hathaway to the low-lying cemetery aside.

　　 "Jenkins, save me~"

　　 "It's all fake, the aura is wrong, don't try to lie to me!"

　　 He said viciously in his heart, turned his head and ran forward, only to find that Hathaway's voice was as real as it was lingering in his ears. It wasn't until the next fork in the road that the sound disappeared completely.

　　 "Damn it, is this a devil's game?"

　　 In fact, he doesn't have to worry about his safety, because that ticket can take him out of here at any time. But leaving the treacherous realm is not good for the status quo of the city. If you want to end this matter, you still have to pass the treacherous realm by legal means. Once the treacherous state collapses, there will be no otherworldly creatures sneaking through the treacherous door.

　　 Seeing that the manor standing on the hillside gets closer and closer, the surrounding red light is getting stronger and stronger. Compared with the intense darkness when he first set off, Jenkins can now see distant scenery even without a monocle.

　　 But the ominous light is not completely harmless to the human body, even he can feel that he is getting more and more struggling to run. This is not because Jenkins lacks exercise recently. Although he hasn't run violently for such a long time, he should not be as weak as he is now.

　　 The manor building stands on a small hill, and there are several paths leading to it. When Jenkins was looking for the upward path, a person came from the other side, the tomb-keeper whom he had just met. This time it’s not an illusion, it can be judged from the aura.

　　 "Are you...Mr. Candle? Didn't you expect you to find it here too?"

　　 He still remembers Jenkins, watching Jenkins go around knowing that he is also looking for the way to the hill manor. So the two walked together, and after running a quarter of the hill, they found the ladder buried in the grass.

　　 The scenery in the courtyard of the manor is also terrifying like hell. Countless black ghosts wander here, and are agitated by the arrival of Jenkins and the tombkeeper.

　　 "You won't want to fight with these things, right? Let's not say whether the time is enough, so many ghosts, rely on the two of us..."

　　 Jenkins said embarrassingly, especially in the treacherous realm, everyone will be restricted by an ability that can only be used once, and it is more difficult to fight.

"The terrain here is very complicated. In addition to the horizontal plane, there are countless spaces intertwined in the vertical direction, and the terrain will change every time you cycle. I have found this manor for the first time. To be honest, next time I don't think I will I may come here again with this kind of luck. This should be the most complete building in this neighborhood. Mr. Candle, we only have one chance, let's try it!"

　　 After finishing speaking, the grave guard in black robes rushed to the building standing on the edge of the hill in the courtyard. Jenkins took out his cane and followed him closely.

　　 Just as they expected, the two of them just started running on the hill, and the ghosts flew over like flies that smelled foul. The tomb guard raised his hand to prop up a coffin to protect the two underneath. When the ghost hit the coffin, it made the illusory coffin more solid.

　　 "This is our magical ability. The attacks of undead creatures will only make the defense stronger and stronger."

　　 But the price of defense getting stronger is that the tomb keepers are paying more and more to maintain its existence. Before the road is halfway, the tomb keepers are already sweaty, almost relying on Jenkins's support to go on.

Chapter 1377 Chapter 1354 Chapter Key and Map

The number of ghosts is too much. Feeling helpless, Jenkins whispered praise to the sage in his heart, and used the brilliance of divine magic to temporarily disperse the overwhelming ghosts, allowing the grave guards to take a breath and recover. Enter the manor’s western-style building.

　　 The ghosts were lingering outside the building, but they didn't dare to enter here. Ten minutes to the end, Jenkins and the Tombkeeper glanced at the interior of the western-style building illuminated by red candles, not knowing where to start.

　　 "The light I saw just now seems to be on the back of the building. Let's find out if there is a back door here. Find it separately, so it's faster."

　　 Jenkins immediately suggested that the tomb guard turned to the stairs on the left side of the gate, presumably thinking of going out through the upper window. The purple brilliance in Jenkins' eyes flashed by. He walked inward along the hallway of the living room facing the door, and saw a rusty iron door at the end of the hallway.

　　 An inverted pentagram was drawn with blood in front of the iron gate, and a candle was lit on each of the five corners of the pentagram. The light of the candle was fluctuating with the arrival of Jenkins.

"right here!"

　　 was overjoyed, adjusting his posture while running, and under the blessing of the power of Titan, he slammed into the iron door sideways. Unexpectedly, almost the same amount of force rushed from the door. The iron door was fixed so it just made a muffled noise. Jenkins was bounced off the same way and rolled on the floor twice before stopping.

　　 "What's the situation?"

　　 He stood up a little embarrassed, looked at the candle in front of the door and the door, and then found that there was an extra note in the center of the inverted pentagram candle.

　　【You need a key to open the door. 】

　　 "Of course I know I need the key, but where do I still have time to find the key now?"

　　 He asked the air angrily, then looked around, and of course he didn't find the key.

　　 Although it’s a bit too coincidental to find the final destination in one go, Jenkins believes in the power of [Destiny Stage] and also believes in his weird luck. The odd door in front of him might be the final answer, but he didn't know where the key was, or even if the key was in this house.

　　 So he thought about going upstairs to find the tombkeeper and asking him if he had any clues. The grave guard in the bedroom was trying to open the sealed window. After hearing Jenkins' discovery, he shook his head and said that he had never seen anything like a key along the way.

　　 spent the last two minutes searching for the key, then the floor under his feet collapsed, and then he fell into a bottomless abyss.

When 　　 woke up again, he had already returned to that place again, but this time there was no new benefactor, and all his companions had returned.

　　 Seeing that everyone was awake, they discussed each other's gains this time. Mr. White Cat did not find the manor, but in the process of going downhill, he actually entered the deep pit under the ground and found that a spear surrounded by buzzing flies was inserted in the center of the pit.

　　 "That is undoubtedly a gift, but it is a pity that if we want to have it, in addition to finding it again, we have to find an exit."

　　 he said regretfully.
