"That's the Corner of Karn ahead of us, we're about to leave the realm of ghosts!"
The priest pointed to a sharp-shaped boulder in front of him and said excitedly: "It's really blessed by the gods. We didn't see any trace of ghosts along the way!"
Everyone in the armored team was very excited. According to the map, the Cape of Karn is only a dozen kilometers away from Griffin City, and their hometown is right ahead!
Seeing the cheering of these natives, Le Xinyi approached Zhang Lang and asked in a low voice: "Actually, we have encountered ghosts a long time ago, right?"
Zhang Lang snorted softly: "If you don't see it, it doesn't count as encountering it."
"According to what you say, the ghosts in this world are probably going to be extinct." Le Xinyi smiled softly: "But I am more curious about what is in the safe in their hands. They protected it so carefully all the way. It must be the key. Props."
"I don't know either." Zhang Lang shook his head: "There is a mysterious power in this world, and random exploration may destroy the things inside."
As he said that, Zhang Lang looked at Lei Lei and Lao Mo who were standing aside: "The captain said that Griffin City is protected by a magic shield. It will be inconvenient for me to use my detection ability there. I will leave the task of detecting the enemy's situation to you. "
"Don't worry." Lao Mo took out a bag of seeds and said, "It's been prepared."
Lei Lei also nodded: "My nanorobot has also been debugged and can be deployed at any time."
Zhang Lang nodded: "This is our first plane battlefield, you must be careful in everything."
"It's just us..." Le Xinyi pouted: "Don't be too impulsive yourself. This time the opponent is a master of the Chen clan, and we don't know the depth of the opponent yet."
"I know it well." Zhang Lang nodded.
Guarded by the Samsaras, the journey went smoothly, and soon a majestic city appeared on the horizon ahead.
It was a steel city with a heavy industrial style. The entire city was surrounded by a steel city wall more than fifty meters high. On the top of the wall were huge ballistas and other city defense equipment. Huge chimneys could be seen in the city. , billowing smoke was discharged into the air.
This is just a scene that ordinary people see. With Zhang Lang's perception, he can clearly feel that there is another layer of powerful energy surrounding Griffin City. This energy is thick and stable, not only on the surface, but also wrapped around the foundation of Griffin City even underground.
Zhang Lang made a visual inspection and found that with this strength, there should be no problem in resisting nuclear weapons of average yield in the main world. No wonder it can protect this city and become the last refuge in the world.
The group arrived a hundred meters in front of the city gate, and the captain signaled everyone to stop.
"Ahead of here is the large protective shield of Griffin City. Wait a moment..." As he said that, the captain stepped forward, took out a scroll and tore it open. A flashing magic bullet flew out from the scroll and shot it. Explosion at high altitude.
Not long after, the city gate opened, and a group of mechanical armored warriors came out and stopped about ten meters away from the crowd. The two sides stood opposite each other with a protective shield.
"Jesta, you don't look good." The leader opposite was a tall bald man holding a thick cigar in his mouth. He pointed at the somewhat damaged armor on the captain's body and asked with a smile: "What, what happened? Have you reached the High Demon?"
"The violent demon." Captain Jesta replied: "And he is a special individual. He also holds gifts from at least a sixth-level demon."
"What?" The bald man opposite was obviously a little surprised: "Then you are really lucky to come back. After such an encounter, even if the mission fails, the Duke will not blame you."
"No, my mission was successful." As he spoke, Jesta pulled the package behind him, revealing the safe inside.
Seeing the Griffin family emblem on it, the bald man's eyes widened: "You actually got it back?"
Jesta nodded: "Thanks to these friends."
As he spoke, he turned sideways to reveal Zhang Lang and others behind him: "These are all capable people with great power. This time I not only completed the task, but also introduced them to the Duke. With their help , Griffin City’s defense will definitely be more solid.”
"A human being who can help you escape from being chased by a special violent demon?" The bald man squinted his eyes and looked at Zhang Lang and the others, then took off a strange instrument inlaid with magic crystal from his back: "Jesta, you come back from outside, You know the rules, right?”
"Of course." Jesta put down the safe in his hand and opened his arms. Others behind him also made the same move.
The bald head started the instrument, and the magic light swept across everyone, and finally the crystal lit up with green light.
"No problem. It's normal for you not to be contaminated by the energy from another world." The bald man breathed a sigh of relief, then pointed the instrument at Zhang Lang and others: "Several strangers, I am very grateful to you for rescuing Jesta. , but if you want to enter Griffin City, you must go through a scan. After all, those cunning alien monsters often disguise themselves as humans and try to sneak in."
"Understood." Le Xinyi stepped forward and took the lead in expressing her obedience: "Don't worry, sir, we are all genuine human beings. Whether they are demons, ghosts, aliens or wild monsters, we are all our mortal enemies." , she also inadvertently cast a flirtatious look at the bald head, which fascinated the armored warriors so much that they were a little unsteady on their feet.
"No pretender will admit that he is not human." The bald captain calmed down, "We are also for the safety of tens of millions of compatriots in Griffin City, so we hope to cooperate."
As he spoke, he started the instrument, and the light of magic shone on several people one after another.
Green lights lit up one after another, all signaling safety, but when the light finally shone on Zhang Lang, the instrument did not respond for a long time.
"Is there a situation?" The bald captain frowned and glanced at Zhang Lang a few more times, but he never saw the green light that symbolized safety.
"Something's wrong! Who are you?" The bald man picked up the giant ax behind him, and the soldiers behind him also set up their crossbows and were on full alert.
"I am human." Zhang Lang sighed. Although the ability to return to nature is powerful, it is indeed inconvenient sometimes. The instrument should use magic scanning to determine the identity of the other party based on the information returned. But the problem is that all the magic used to scan Zhang Lang was eliminated and no information was returned at all, so the overturning caused abnormal results.
"No, only those who show green light are human beings. Who are you?" The bald head looked nervous. Even Jesta and others outside the protective shield looked at Zhang Lang with alert eyes.
Yes, this guy resisted the violent demon's sword. No matter how you look at it, his strength is too abnormal. Now the scan results are wrong. Could he really be...
"But if it's a non-human being, shouldn't the red light shine on?" Behind the bald head, a soldier said weakly: "This kind of unresponsiveness is not so much a problem as it is the result of not scanning anything. …”
"How could it not be scanned!" The bald head gritted his teeth and said: "We all clearly saw that the light hit him, but the green light indicating safety did not light up. There is definitely something wrong with this guy!"
"If you have doubts, I don't have to enter the city." Zhang Lang raised his hands: "Just let other people in."
"No!" Baldhead refused: "The guy you are with is also suspicious!"
"What do you mean?" Zhang Lang frowned slightly: "Do you want us poor humans who came to Griffin City to stay outside the dangerous city?"
"You are living outside the city, aren't you living quite well?" The bald head refused to give in even a step: "Back off, if you don't back off, I will launch an attack!"
"Everyone, calm down." Jesta still doesn't believe that Zhang Lang and the others walking with them are spies from another world, but the bald head still insists: "Jesta, stay away from them, these guys I don’t know what your abilities are, but you are in danger even outside the shield!”
Just when the two sides were in a stalemate, a mechanical roar sounded, and an armored knight riding a huge mechanical beast rushed out of the city gate and shouted from a distance: "Boris, put down your weapons. The Duke just ordered, put down The distinguished guests at the door are entering the city!”
