What is called a cycle on this day has been around for more than two hundred years. What is a corner forgotten by time. Everyone heard it clearly, but almost no one knew what it meant. Of course this does not include Qin Dao.

Qin Dao can probably understand what this means. After all, they are also people who have entered the void. He is not surprised that someone creates a similarly incomplete space.

"To be honest, I don't like war. I should say I hate war. It was because of the endless war that I left the Huns army. Leopold's death made me a little desperate. Can you imagine, a man who has been alone for thousands of years? People, after finally finding a friend, and then losing it again, can you imagine this kind of loneliness that makes the world unresponsive every day? In desperation, I tried something unknown."

At this point, Brida paused for a moment. He seemed to be thinking about how to explain what he could explain as clearly as possible.

"In the past thousand years, I have collected some so-called secrets, the Jewish King's "Key of Solomon", the "Devil's Bible" known as the devil's manuscript, the magic book "Abatael" cursed by the gods, The encyclopedia of Western spells, "The Great Magic Book" and "The Book of Roger Ayer". No one knows that if spells of different systems and similar functions are put together, there will be many magical changes, because no one has obtained them at the same time. These books."

"Is it like chemistry?"

"Yes. This place is a failed experiment. I am trapped here by one of my own adventures."

"Then why did you come to us?"

At this time, Brida seemed to be avoiding Heinze intentionally and looked at Qin Dao.

"I know you can use space magic. You are the only ones left who have mastered such magic."

Everyone's eyes were focused on Qin Dao at this moment.

"What happened here?" Qin Dao asked

"This small town seems to be anchored in the long river of time. We are like a bubble. Time is flowing. We can only repeat today here."

Heinze seemed to have thought of something terrible. He looked horrified and said with anger, "Where are the people in the castle? And where are the men in the town? Were they all sacrificed by you? To complete Your evil experiment."

"Most of the men in the town, including the members of your family in the castle, are wearing armor and going out to fight. This is why we are determined to try these forbidden arts."

"Do you know what legends there are about this town and the outside world in the past few hundred years since our family's castle disappeared?"

"have no idea?"

"There are no legends here. The entire town and castle disappeared so naturally and naturally."

"What's wrong with this?"

"Isn't it strange that a small town with a population of 1,000 households and such a huge castle would just disappear?"

"I don't know. I can only say that not only the town has disappeared, but also people's memories of this place." Heinze was obviously a little excited and a little sad.

Qin Dao was a little impatient. He had no interest in the people and things here. He asked, "According to what you said, how did you leave here? I want to know why you brought us here?"

...

Ah Xiang walked in front of Pu Yuanqi, and Fang Minzhi walked faintly behind. They shuttled through the town cautiously. Since they were separated, they had put on very professional gas masks. Although they might feel a little uncomfortable and have trouble breathing, after experiencing Xiangjiang and several battles in Europa, they knew this. Things can save their lives at critical moments.

They passed through the square and small pond in the center of the town. There was a small fountain in the pond, and wild flowers of various colors were scattered in the small flowerbeds around the pond.

The buildings here are actually not much different from the buildings they saw in many cities in Europe. They have an obvious Renaissance style of the 16th and 17th centuries. Unique, exquisite and practical, most of the houses are made of stone and wood, with sloped roofs with tiles. The more exquisite ones are of brick and wood structure, and some houses are half brick and half wood.

head. No matter what style of house they are, they are all built in a square and regular manner, and the overall planning of the town is also very reasonable and tidy.

The further they walked, the weirder they felt. There were still some villagers on the outskirts of the town, but the closer they got to the center of the town, the fewer and fewer people there were. Now when they reached the center of the village, there was almost no one there, and the visibility was getting lower and lower. .

"Boss, should we go to the house and take a look."

"There's something weird about this place, so it's best not to act rashly."

At this moment, a shrill scream came from the distance, but the sound obviously stopped suddenly before it reached its highest point. I don't know if the person who screamed was dead or was completely stopped.

Fang Min subconsciously asked everyone to hide. In the past year, Pu Yuanqi has experienced fighting, assassinations, head-on fights, and escaped death countless times. He is considered a Jianghu person who is not afraid of killing. But the weird atmosphere here still made his legs swing. For the first time, a young man in his early twenties experienced the feeling of his legs not being controlled. His hands involuntarily pulled Fang Minzhi's clothes. , just like a child longing for the protection of his father or brother.

Suddenly he heard something, and before he knew it, his feet stopped shaking, and he seemed to be no longer afraid. He heard a very familiar voice, and he pulled Fang Minzhi's sleeve.

"Boss, there."

"have what?"..

"I don't know, there's a machine sound there."

"Want to take a look."

"Yeah, a little weird."

The source of the sound came from a wooden thatched house a few hundred meters away. This room should be a building for raising livestock or stacking grain.

When they opened the wooden door, they were amazed by the scene in the house. The whole house was made of wood and metal. There was a large machine ten meters high in the middle of the house. It was like two worlds compared to the outside.

"Xiao Qi, what is that?"

Pu Yuanqi was a little dazed when he looked at the huge machine. He couldn't help but walk a few steps forward. When he was about to touch the machine with one hand, he was pulled by Fang Minzhi.

"Xiao Qi, what kind of thing is this?"

"This should be a steam engine."

"What steam engine." Fang Minzhi still had some idea of ​​a steam engine, a power system that basically belonged to the last century. In his impression, a steam engine should be rough, wild, and powerful. From time to time, strong water vapor would flow from it. seeped out of the machine. But the machine in front of me is exquisite and rigorous. The huge gears that should have existed in the steam engine have been replaced by more small gears. This machine has a strange balance and beauty.

"Xiao Qi, what is the use of this machine?"

"Power output." Pu Yuanqi is now carefully examining the various pipes on the ground.

"There are problems underground, and there are mysteries underneath this village."

"Then how about we blow up this machine?" A Xiang said at this time

Pu Yuanqi seemed to have determined the role of those pipes at this time and said

"No, this machine can produce at least more than 8,000 horsepower. Where does such a huge power go? From the pipeline here, I think there should be more than one such machine in this village. We haven't figured out its function yet. It's best not to act rashly. Leave a remote-controlled bomb and let's go meet Xiaotang and the others first."

...

"This city has been cycling like this for almost 100,000 days. No matter how much I damage this place, it will return to its original state after midnight, back to the previous day. After hundreds of years of wasted time, I still discovered some loopholes here. I found that every time Every five hundred days, a crack will appear here. I can leave here through it."

"Then why come back when you can go out? Since you are tired of this place, this is completely unreasonable."

"Yes, it sounds very unreasonable. The first time I went out, I discovered that I no longer belonged to the outside world. Everything there was repelling me. The things I was good at didn't work at all. Everything in the world , and when everyone there excludes one person,

Then that world is definitely no longer suitable for him to survive. But I still insist on going out every five hundred days. Collecting all kinds of intelligence, until last time I got your intelligence, a group of amazing Chinese young people, proficient in some space magic. So this time, I invite you here, and I hope you can help me. "

Qin Dao didn't believe what Brida said at all. From motivation to purpose, it was full of loopholes. It seemed that Brida didn't do much to cover it up. Qin Dao can be sure that in this place, Bleda has absolute confidence to control his group.

"How to get out, where is the exit? If we can't get out this time, does that mean we have to stay here for five hundred days. What exactly do you want us to do?"

Qin Dao didn't have time to test it slowly with him. If his judgment was correct, they might not be able to leave here in a few hours. By then, they would have to be at the mercy of others. So he decided to show off, and every question he asked was on point.

At this time, Brida's face was getting worse and worse, and her eyes narrowed dangerously.

"Before midnight, there is an exit in this village through which you can return to your own time and space. If the time passes, you will be left behind, so I hope you will cooperate."

It was obvious that Brida was not going to answer any other questions.

"So far, I have not seen the need for us to help you. Your appeal has nothing to do with us. As you said, hundreds of years have passed and there is no place for you in that world. "

Qin Dao didn't wait for Brida to answer, looked at Heinze and said, "You don't really think of Brida as your family's benefactor, do you? It seems that someone wants us to be the scapegoat."

Qin Dao's words were already making him angry. Xiaolu, Lu Huanxi, three members of the Cape family, and five members of the Russell family quickly moved closer to Qin Dao. Except for Heinze who seemed to be hesitant.

Brida looked at Qin Dao and others with some amusement at this time. Hundreds of years of loneliness also made him cherish these people who could provide him with entertainment. He also seemed very confident that he could strangle Qin Dao and his group to death at any time. He wanted to see what kind of ripples these bugs in his eyes could cause under his nose.

Seeing that Heince didn't seem to have made his position clear yet, Qin Dao said anxiously.

"Heinze, we have a saying in China that the authorities are confused. The matter involves your family and you can't see the truth clearly. But I can tell you that the relationship between your ancestor and him may not be what he said at all. , they may be a pair of masters and servants, and your ancestor may be just a poor person who was taken advantage of. He just wanted to be the shadow behind your family, and your ancestor even died for him. Something incredible must have happened here now. Regarding the test, he needs a scapegoat again. This person may be you or me. We need you now."

At this time, Qin Dao had noticed that there were several green, looming insects crawling toward them at Bleda's feet. The insects were half as long as a little finger, a bit like centipedes, and looked extremely ugly and evil.

Qin Dao sighed. Now he knew why everything went smoothly for him on the train. All the bad luck cursed by the vampires should be here in Brida. It seemed that they really had a narrow escape this time.

Qin Dao no longer thought about it and pulled out his Qin sword. He stretched out his hand and took out a short sword out of thin air. He let go of his hand and the sword floated beside him.

"Xiaolu, now you may be the only person he is unfamiliar with, and you are also our only hope."

"What do you want?"

"Kill everyone in this town."
