"If possible, learn dragon language as soon as possible. We dragons don't like to speak human language, and we don't speak human language easily. Today is an exception."
"Ming...understand!"
"See you later!"
After the dragon army completely left, Black Dragon Juecheng asked Hong Ling'er: "Do you think they are serious?"
"It's true or false. You are not a dragon. It is difficult for them to admit you, but they respect the dragon contract and Nirul's choice. So they gave you the right to choose, and you will decide the future path. Hong Ling'er replied.
"But, I don't know how I should proceed in the future..."
At this time, the king suddenly came to Jue Cheng. He said to Jue Cheng in a serious tone: "Help us clean up the land of hell. We will make the land of hell disappear from the map. Now, only you have the ability to investigate A way to break the curse.”
Chapter 570
In this way, Jue Cheng was reused by the king, and he went to the Land of Underworld to investigate the situation.
Every time Juecheng goes to the Land of Underworld, he takes the robot with him. The main functions of these robots are to protect Jue City, store the food needed by Jue City, and use cameras to record all situations.
When Jue Cheng enters the land of hell in his human form, the undead souls will not absorb the life force, but instead lay a curse on Jue City. But after Juecheng stays in the land of underworld for a full week, the undead will begin to suck the life force from Juecheng.
It can be seen from this that these undead have high IQs. At the beginning, after they placed the curse, they waited for Juecheng to leave the land of hell and infect other places. But once Juecheng stays in the land of hell for a long time, they will give up waiting and instead try to suck Juecheng dry.
An undead, continuously sucking Jue Cheng, would take a whole day to drain Jue Cheng's life force. But if dozens of undead were absorbed at the same time, Jue City wouldn't be able to last even half an hour.
Therefore, in order to investigate, Juecheng tried his best to avoid places where the undead were densely populated.
Sometimes, Juecheng failed to avoid the undead and was surrounded by the undead.
At this time, the robots protecting Jue City will release flames to disturb the undead.
These undead are very fast and can basically avoid the flames easily, but there will still be a few particularly greedy undead that get close to the city and get burned miserably.
But there will still be some fish that slip through the net and successfully suck Juecheng. As they suck, Juecheng's physical strength will decrease.
Sometimes, in order to resist being sucked by the undead, Jue Cheng must transform into the form of a black dragon. In the black dragon state, Jue Cheng can activate dragon protection to greatly increase resistance.
Therefore, every time there is a crisis, the black dragon will fly up and leave the land of hell.
Before, if Nirul hadn't been seriously injured by the rebels' top brass, he wouldn't have been easily absorbed by the undead. Every time he thought about this, Jue Cheng felt that Nilul's death was unjust.
However, things have already happened, so there is no need to be too worried about it. At least Juecheng can still feel Nilul beside him, even if it is invisible or intangible, it is just a feeling.
Juecheng has been investigating the hometown of Huangquan for more than three months, but has not made any substantial progress.
The only progress was to find the remains of the rebels.
There were hundreds of rebels who had fled into the Land of Underworld, and several of them were powerful figures with well-named names. But no matter how strong they are, they can't defeat the undead.
No matter how powerful the "elephant" is, it will be slowly eaten away by the "ants".
A total of 368 skeletons were investigated in Juecheng, but 3 skeletons could not be found.
In this land of hell, there are no outsiders, only the dead.
The undead can only suck life force, they cannot touch objects. For example, if Juecheng hits the undead with his hands, it will be like hitting the smoke, without any effect. In this case, the undead cannot have the ability to carry corpses. So, where did the other three corpses go?
The king asked Jue Cheng to continue the investigation, but Jue Cheng felt that it was like finding a needle in a haystack. He has been working hard for more than three months and is being sucked by the undead every day. Although it won't be sucked to death, the feeling is very painful, as if the soul of the body has been taken away.
However, the king's order cannot be disobeyed, and he still asks Jue Cheng to continue the investigation. The difference is that the king allows Juecheng to do 7 days and 3 days of rest, that is, 7 days of work and 3 days of rest.
In this way, Juecheng continued to investigate for several months.
During this period, whenever Jue Cheng felt depressed, he would talk to Hong Ling'er.
In order for Juecheng to continue investigating, Hong Ling'er kept saying words of encouragement to Juecheng.
However, Juecheng's heart is really about to collapse. If he stays with these undead souls every day, he will die of depression if he doesn't get sucked to death.
Over time, Juecheng began to become impetuous, even lazy and negative. He stayed in the land of hell, doing nothing but lazing around.
Hong Ling'er is a rational person. Although she has to consider the overall interests of the country, she also believes that Juecheng's investigation has no practical significance.
Moreover, the land of Huangquan is the size of a giant city. Even if there are secrets inside, Juecheng alone may not be able to investigate them in his lifetime.
One day, Hong Ling'er expressed her opinion to the king. The king can ignore everyone, but he cannot ignore Hong Ling'er's thoughts and requests.
The king finally agreed to Hong Ling'er's request and planned to stop the investigation.
Hong Ling'er took the king's order and headed to the border of the Land of Underworld. She waited at the border area, waiting for Juecheng to come out of the land of hell.
According to the rule of 7 days off and 3 days off, today is the day Juecheng leaves the land of hell. However, Hong Ling'er waited for a long time but did not wait for Juecheng.
Hong Ling'er asked a soldier: "When does Juecheng usually leave the land of hell?"
"I can't tell for sure. Sometimes it's early and sometimes it's late, but today is the latest. It's almost the next day. He hasn't come out yet, and he hasn't roared yet."
"Where's the picture of the robot?"
"The robot's image is frozen. It has been frozen for an hour."
"Take me to see it."
Hong Ling'er followed the soldier leader to the equipment. She saw the video stopped in a room.
Strange thing, why does it stay in this room?
Could it be that Jue Cheng was lazy and sleeping again?
Hong Ling'er had no choice but to continue waiting.
After waiting for several more hours, the screen of the machine still did not move.
"What are you doing, this Jue city!" Hong Ling'er was also a little impatient.
At this moment, a shocking picture appeared on the display screen.
There was a man walking slowly towards the machine.
Because the position of the machine is a bit low, it can only capture the area below the calf.
Hong Ling'er frowned: "Is Juecheng wearing such pants and shoes?"
"No, I don't remember that." One of the soldier commanders replied.
"What's going on? Is there anyone else in the Land of Underworld?"
"Impossible. Our soldiers have already surrounded the Land of Underworld, and it is impossible for anyone else to enter."
"Is it possible that this person is not a new person, but has been staying in the land of hell?"
"That's even more impossible. Who has the ability to stay in the Land of Underworld and not come out. The undead can pass through any small gap, so no one can hide in the Land of Underworld unharmed."
"Then whose pants and shoes belong to you?" Hong Ling'er's uneasiness became more and more serious.
"Maybe Zeecheng found new shoes and pants in there."
At this moment, a faint dragon roar came over.
Hong Ling'er and others were immediately nervous: "It's Jue City, hurry up and launch the fireworks."
The soldiers immediately fired fireworks and cannons, gradually leading Jue Cheng here.
Normally, Juecheng would be able to fly out of the fog within 10 minutes after hearing the guidance from the fireworks cannon.
But this time, ten minutes have passed and Juecheng still hasn't flown out. Moreover, Juechen's voice was very weak.
"This dragon's voice sounds so weak. It's not usually like this." The soldier captain asked.
Hong Ling'er came to the instrument again, and she saw a very shocking picture, that is, the man raised his feet.
A second...
"Zizzizz..." The screen disappeared.
Someone trampled the robot to pieces, and someone trampled the robot to pieces in the land of hell.
"Damn it, there is a problem in the Land of Underworld, and there is danger in Jue City." Hong Ling'er was as anxious as an ant on a hot pot.
"Boom!" Hong Ling'er's whole body suddenly burst into flames.
The soldier captain shouted nervously: "What do you want to do? Don't enter the land of hell, there is a risk of being cursed."
"The Mist Zone is surrounding the outskirts of the Land of Underworld, so it does not belong to the territory of the Land of Underworld. I want to go in to find Juecheng now, so don't stop your fireworks and cannons."
"But it's full of fog inside, you can't see anything."
"It depends on feeling."
After Hong Ling'er finished speaking, she flew into the foggy area with a bang.
These fogs were laid by super-advanced magicians, and they could not be dissipated by flames or wind. Hong Ling'er lost her vision in the fog, and she could only rely on the sound to identify Juechen's direction.
The flames driven by Hong Ling'er were very fast, and she quickly discovered the location of Jue City. She reached out and touched Juecheng's body. In addition to feeling the dragon scales, she also felt wetness.
"Juecheng, is that you?"
"Yes, it's me." Juecheng's voice was weak.
"Why is your body covered in blood?"
"Quick, get out of here, there's danger here."
Just as Juecheng finished speaking, a bolt of lightning suddenly rushed over.
Hong Ling'er immediately blocked it with her hands, and heard a loud snap. Hong Ling'er felt her arm numb.
"How is it possible that the third-level flame body protection was so shocked that my arms were numb? Damn it, there are experts here."
"Sister Ling'er, stop fighting and run away."
"I know." Hong Ling'er immediately summoned a giant wall of fire to block behind him.
"The opponent is very powerful. The wall of fire can't stop him for long. Take me away quickly." Juecheng said anxiously.
"Damn it." Hong Ling'er wanted to have a good fight with the opponent, but seeing Juecheng being so anxious, she had no choice but to give up.
Hong Ling'er grabbed the dragon's tail and unleashed the greatest impact of fire.
"boom!"
Hong Ling'er took Juecheng and quickly flew away from the foggy area.
