Chapter 1141
1141 Terrifying content _1
Tang Zhen slowly put down the hidden world Tower’s City history in his hand and glanced at the corpse beside him.
If there were no accidents, this corpse should be the last city Lord of this SPACE TOWER. As for why he ended up in such a state, Tang Zhen would have to continue to find the answer.
After flipping through the remaining books, Tang Zhen picked out a diary-like thing and carefully opened it.
With just a glance, Tang Zhen knew that this was the thing he was looking for.
The owner of the diary had a strange and long name. Tang Zhen was not interested in remembering it. Hence, he called him the master of the hidden city.
This diary recorded the life of the hidden city Lord. At the beginning, it was nothing special, nothing more than the trivial life of a reserve city Lord. In order to protect his safety, the future city Lord never left the space TOWER before taking over.
After all, with the cornerstone platform providing redeemable resources, they could live a self-sufficient life.
Of course, he was not the only one. In fact, many residents of the secluded tower never had the chance to see the outside world in their entire lives. Under the deliberate concealment of the nobles in the tower, they even thought that what they saw was the whole world!
Although they had been deliberately deceived, this was actually not a sad thing. After all, being in the chaotic world of the tower, being able to live a peaceful and happy life was definitely something that countless people could only wish for.
As for the cultivators of the tower who had to go out for their missions, this secret had to be kept strictly. This was to prevent the residents of the tower from being restless and wanting to go to the outside world, which would bring unnecessary danger to the secluded tower.
Being hidden from the world, they were naturally unwilling to have any contact with the outside world. Even though the strength of the secluded Tower City was already quite strong at that time, it still kept a low profile.
Therefore, until the secluded city was upgraded to a national level, many residents still didn’t understand the truth of the matter. However, it was no big deal even if they knew now. With the strength of a national level city, the secluded city could definitely suppress all the low-level cities within a radius of ten thousand miles!
The peaceful days would not last forever. During a mission to invade the other world, the secluded tower had encountered a huge crisis.
After they were teleported to the other world by the cornerstone platform, they were surprised to find that this was a very desolate place. Many buildings had been destroyed for a long time, and there seemed to be no traces of living activity at all.
The cultivators in the secluded tower, who thought that they had come to a dead land, began to explore this world. However, they soon made a surprising discovery!
It turned out that there were many deep caves on the surface of this world. After careful exploration, cultivator Lou Cheng unexpectedly found an origin stone mine at the bottom of one of the caves!
This was a real mineral reserve. The huge origin stones condensed into one, looking incomparably huge and shining with a dazzling seven-colored brilliance.
The overjoyed cultivators of the City Tower immediately began to cut the origin stones neatly and then sent them back to the city.
The harvest this time was simply too great. There was no need to calculate in detail to know that these origin stones were enough to exchange for a massive amount of points, allowing the hidden Tower to spend freely for many years!
However, when they were searching for the world’s origin source required for the mission, they found no clues at all. It was as if the world’s origin power had dissipated.
After careful research by the scholars in Lou Cheng, they confirmed that this world was indeed constantly ” dying “, which was why there were no living creatures and it looked extremely desolate.
However, such ‘dead’ worlds would either be completely destroyed or be reborn. No matter what the outcome was, it would take millions of years!
It was very likely that the origin Energy had been snatched away by someone else or dissipated for some other reason, which led to this situation!
After knowing the result, the cultivators in the secluded tower were extremely disappointed. They thought that the harvest this time would be beyond their imagination, but now it seemed that it might not be the case.
If they couldn’t complete the origin plundering mission given by the cornerstone platform, they would be punished, and these origin stones couldn’t make up for it at all.
Therefore, he was afraid that he would lose money on this mission!
However, the problem was that the cornerstone platform would definitely not go to such great lengths to do something so useless. In that case, there must still be a world origin in this world. It was just that it was hidden so deeply that they had not discovered it!
After realizing this, the secluded tower began to dig three feet underground again. As a result, when the cultivators of the tower entered the ruins of this world, they inadvertently woke up the enemies hidden underground.
Countless giant insects of all shapes and sizes swarmed out of the ruins and attacked the cultivators in the building with all their might.
In the face of a powerful enemy that was dozens of times their number, the cultivators in the secluded tower were forced to retreat. They could only retreat and retreat back into the tower in a sorry state.
Because of the unique concealment of the spatial tower, the giant insects were unable to cause any damage to it, which made the cultivators of the hidden Tower, who had suffered heavy losses, heave a sigh of relief.
The residents of the building, who thought that they could rely on the space TOWER to avoid the bug horde, did not know that the disaster had quietly befallen them.
This time, the disaster didn’t come from the outside world, but from the inside of the tower. The space TOWER, which could provide them with protection, couldn’t help them this time. Instead, it became an accomplice to the enemy!
At this time, the diary’s owner had already become city Lord Lou. He recorded the process of the disaster in detail in the diary, allowing Tang Zhen to see the scene at that time.
“The war mission has been going on for a year, and there are giant insects everywhere outside the passage. They seem to be able to sense the existence of the tower, so they have been lingering at the exit and are unwilling to leave.
It’s almost impossible to break through the blockade of these giant worms and continue to collect the world’s origin.”
“Today, someone told me that there seems to be a problem with the tower’s Treasury where the origin stones are stored. A portion of the origin stones suddenly disappeared, but no one has entered the place since the beginning, and the Treasury’s door hasn’t even moved.
I went to check it out myself and didn’t find anything unusual. However, I don’t know why, but I have an uneasy feeling in my heart.”
everything seems normal recently, but I keep feeling that something is wrong, but I can’t put my finger on it.
“Someone came to tell me today that some of the residents in loucheng are acting very strangely. They often lock themselves in their houses, and I don’t know what they’re doing.
The uneasiness in my heart grew stronger and stronger, so I sent someone to check it out, only to find that they had long disappeared!”
“More and more residents of Lou city have gone missing. It’s like they’ve melted into the air and can’t be found no matter how hard we look for them. In the last two days, some cultivators have even started to go missing!
I know that this is definitely not a good thing, so I immediately gathered my subordinates. We must get to the bottom of this matter!”
“During today’s discussion, there were a few people who looked at me in a very strange way. They just stared at me, and their smiles were very strange. It even gave me a very strange feeling, as if they had been replaced!
I vaguely guessed a possibility and immediately ran to the treasure room in loucheng. As a result, I saw many residents showing that strange smile on their faces along the way.”
the situation has become extremely bad. It seems that I have to make early preparations!
“Damn it, there’s a terrifying bug in the heads of those dead residents. They were controlled by this bug, which is why they desperately tried to open the passage and let the bugs in!
God knows how many people are controlled by the insects. For the stability of the city, I have to kill them all, no matter how many people die!”
When the diary reached this point, it suddenly became scribbled. It was like a child who had just learned how to write scribbling on paper, but in the end, he still wrote down a sentence.
“Food, reproduction Pixiu”
It was followed by another sentence, and the handwriting returned to its original state, but the content was shocking.
“I’ve been infected by a parasite!”
