They left through a door, went down the stairs three times, and came to a dark tunnel - both parties were calm, as if this was an officially arranged reception tour, and the local garden owner was hospitable and responsive to all requests. The guests are polite and approachable. The guests and hosts enjoy themselves - although it is difficult for the undead and demons to achieve true joy.
At least that's what it looks like.
There was only one shadow general left to follow them. The shadow team was short and capable, and all of them were erratic elites. Trying to figure out whether they were three rows and four columns, or four rows and three columns, was absolutely futile. Under the phosphorescence floating overhead and occasionally exploding, the numbers that can be seen more clearly are the two selected dissociation archers and two dead soul knights (their arrows are particularly dissociated, and their souls are particularly dead) .
Coupled with the consistent two and a half clerks, Cha and Shenchang·Ling formed the tour team. At least it seems that way. It was not the first time for Yi Cha to come to the killing realm, but it was the first time to the place in front of him.
As if to confirm that this was indeed a harmless wandering, he looked around casually and listened carefully to the introduction of the places extending on both sides of the tunnel.
Inspection offices, various pools, workshops (there are many types, the division of labor is very fine, skin tanning, splicing and suturing are all divided into three different workshops, not to mention dealing with spirits and bones, Ta Lili will either know how to do it) Love this place or hate it to death), cemeteries - for various purposes, some can be used for sleeping, and some can only be used for sleeping.
Trembling scaffolding and lifting machinery can be seen everywhere. Some are of classical form. Some are quite fashionable - of course, the fashion he knows may have become classical styles, and the classical styles he thinks have become new fashions. There are also some structures and techniques that he has never seen before - at least not in the version that has been put into use.
He asked a lot of questions - some of them were not just to pretend to be his guest, and he answered them one by one. He could tell that not all of them were just to deal with him.
The area was probably larger than he thought. However big he thought it was, it was probably bigger than he thought. Just as no matter how prepared the living are for death, it often comes as a surprise. To some extent, he believed that part of the Book of the Dead was right.
For example, the living have a harmless prejudice against the undead, believing that they should live in underground cities that extend in all directions.
Like many other prejudices, this one has some merit. They walked in the tightened part of the underground passage, but it still seemed very spacious. On one side is a trench, with many skeletons and soul-resurrected corpses working silently on the scaffolding and in the ditch.
"Pipeline." said Shanchang Lin. "There are sixteen poles in total. They are two feet apart. They are three and a half feet thick, and eight poles are facing each other. Every two areas have a complete set of valve monitoring. We are still building. This is not a big project, but it is not small either. From the corpse The raw materials flowing down pass through the sedimentation tank and the weight classification tank, and flow to each workshop, and then flow from each workshop to the inspection office, and then separate from the inspection office for a second time, and flow to each cemetery. The role they play is like this. The corpse of the dead is raised. The process has been greatly improved. Thanks to you."
"Thanks to me."
Yi Cha repeated this sentence. He didn't need to add a questioning tone to express his attitude. Apparently. The desire to do harm is the best motivation. Shenchang Lin knew exactly where he had been in the past seven thousand years. Since he was somewhere else, he couldn't be here or in some shabby research room that he would rather wear, improving the process of turning life into death, or something like that.
"Oh. You may not know." Shenchang Lin said slimily - this is the death version of "laughing", the subtle difference lies in the width of the mouth corners and the concentration of juice gushing from the facial cracks. "This simple project contains a lot of wisdom from all the major planes."
"This is the killing realm." Yi Cha said. "And the Killing Domain is..."
He stopped. I'm interjecting here for the sake of embarrassment and foil. This can better demonstrate the good character of the other party than asking questions - it shows that the good character of the other party also comes from the devil's instinct. It is embodied differently in each devil. Some make the other party appear more noble, and some make oneself more despicable. Some directly distort the meaning of "good moral character" itself. No matter what, Shanchang·Ling really answered the call.
"The killing area is an isolated area." Shenchang Lin said. "Even at the end of the end, there is little contact with the killing realm, let alone other planes. But this is only from your perspective.
'Everything that is dead was once alive'. You must have heard this sentence, right? "
Cha nodded. "The Book of the Dead. I didn't know you would read this kind of second-hand information. After all, you are dead yourself."
"I haven't heard of the book you mentioned." Shenchang Lin said apologetically. "This is a proverb.
Anyway, there are all kinds of dead people here. They come from all kinds of places. In other words, our understanding of you has always been far greater than your understanding of us.
It can be said that we ourselves are the other side of the sum of you. In this world, we are the only ones who are special. You can think of it this way——
Or maybe we are the only ones who are not special and can completely sacrifice everything for a little benefit of the universe. "
"Oh." Icha responded.
One more point for The Book of the Dead. It had already scored one point before. But one point was deducted for coming up. So its score is...
They moved closer to the trench to listen to what Shenchang Lin continued to say:
"The craftsmanship of these pipes comes from the end of the end. After the end of the end, the structure there made a series of uses of the holes left by the ground needles. Finally, we got this kind of almost infinite extension length, with almost no Pipes that lose the flow of content. We borrowed them." He said, stretching out his fat hand and giving serious instructions. "The lifting equipment that pulls up the pipeline and facilitates transportation comes from the technical inspiration of the mite monster. You know, there are many comrades here who do not have entities. They need material assistance to operate the production materials on three levels at the same time. . This kind of simple machine is exactly what we need. In addition, the operating core inside has been modified like a fairy."
"Yeah." Yi Cha nodded.
"The idea of the entire structure is mechanized." Shenchang Lin continued. "There's nothing you can't understand, right? After all, you've worked with some of the most expert mechanics in the world. And you've seen some of the greatest mechanical inventions in the entire history of the universe."
"So be it."
"Fluid transportation, valves, and the design of the gravity pool are derived from the long-standing blood pool and its related diversion design." Shanchang Lin pointed to the trench that was still dry. "There are two styles of blood pool design that are difficult to choose between. Demonic and vampire. Don't mind me juxtaposing you. Both designs have their own advantages that cannot be separated. Of course, we combine these two advantages in Together, they create a weighted pool.”
he continued. "The references are "Me and My Eighteen-fold Energy Conversion Rate" and "Six Examples of Energy Diversion"."
"Oh." Icha said. "So I'm here."
"Then you underestimate yourself too much." Shenchang Lin said.
