Facing Zuo Chang's threat, Mu Suogen didn't panic at all.
He held the black book and said, "Little sir, the situation is unclear now. What if we both lose in the fight and someone else takes advantage of us?"
Zuo Chang said without thinking: "But if I don't subdue you here, where will I get the chance? The outside is the territory of the Shenyin Society, and I dare not make any mistakes."
Mu Suogen stretched out his hand to touch the cover of "The Book of the Rootless" with a leisurely manner.
He continued: "I'm just reminding you that if you really want to take action, I will accompany you. We fought against each other in the Forest of Whispers, and now we fight again. It doesn't matter who loses and who wins. Even if you kill me, you still can't. It’s going to take some work…what do you think?”
Zuo Chang felt it was right.
He actually had no determination to fight Mu Suogen, mainly because Mu Suogen was not a weak person.
With the cultivation level of the Twelve Realms, plus the domain skill "Marching Crazy Sand" and the rare object "Sand of Deception", Mu Suogen has experienced and developed a combat system of his own.
This type of person is extremely difficult to deal with.
Zuo Chang's previous threat was actually an offensive defense. He tried to warn Musogen:
Don't do it, I bite.
Although Mu Suogen is not sociable, he is good at observation.
He quickly realized Zuo Chang's intentions and immediately gave a neither soft nor hard response, leaving open the possibility of cooperation.
At this moment, he continued: "I am Mu Suogen, from the Twelve Realms."
Zuo Chang responded simply: "My name is Zuo Chang, from the Seventh Realm."
"The reason why I discovered this 'secret realm' was purely by chance."
Self-care.
Mu Suogen began to explain the situation: "After I was suspended without pay, I was depressed. One day, I stayed under the statue of the Dark God for a little longer, and suddenly I arrived at this place! What about you? Mr. Zuo, you seem to be... …Do you know this place?”
Zuo Chang shook his head: "I also came here by accident. I was just wandering around the city when I suddenly saw you, brother. In order to avoid being a thief, I followed you secretly, intending to teach you a little lesson. Unexpectedly, I finally arrived. here."
This is a lie.
But Musogen didn't care.
He nodded: "So you don't know anything about this place?"
"Knowing nothing indeed."
"Haha. Feel your pockets to see if there is anything extra."
As Mu Suogen spoke, he reached into his bag and took out a golden compass.
Zuo Chang was slightly startled, then reached out and patted his trouser pocket——
Nothing.
In order not to be discovered by the Shenyin Society, Zuo Chang specially put on ordinary adventurer attire. The adventurer outfit features many pockets for easy storage.
But he searched high and low and never found any "compass".
After thinking for a moment, he closed his eyes and looked at his supply warehouse.
This time, I saw it.
In the material warehouse, there was a golden compass lying quietly. He put his hand behind his back, avoided looking and took it out: "This? What is this?"
Musuogen shook his head: "I don't know what this is. After entering here, this compass appears mysteriously; after going out, it mysteriously disappears. If you put your magic power into it, you can get the explanation of the compass."
Zuo Chang did as he was told.
After the magic power penetrated, the golden compass made a sound, and a piece of information poured into the brain:
【Desire Compass: This is a magical compass, only available 'here'. The compass will point to what your heart desires, follow the needle and it will fulfill your desires. 】
Compass of lust…
Zuo Chang lowered his gaze, and the compass pointer in his hand kept spinning without any intention of stopping.
Zuo Chang was surprised.
He secretly thought: "What does this mean? Is it because I have few desires and no hope?"
Mu Suogen glanced at it, shook his head and sighed: "I thought you were lying... I didn't expect that you really don't know where this place is. You are completely confused now."
No.
Zuo Chang actually knew.
The God has made it very clear that this is the mysterious underground city, which contains information related to the "Promised Day".
only……
"Don't I long for the truth?"
Zuo Chang looked at the compass in his hand, unable to grasp his mentality.
As a "foreigner" who has just been here for a month, he has no feelings for the gods or the ascended world.
More precisely--
This god didn't ask why and just grabbed him. Zuo Chang didn't spit on her face, which was considered a high quality.
He might not mind solving some mysteries for the gods, or contribute a little bit.
However, if he sincerely supports the gods and uses his spirit of dedication and sacrifice to serve the gods...
People can hold their noses and force themselves to do something.
But people cannot force themselves to love others.
The reason why sincerity is precious is that it cannot be faked or forced.
"Oh, we are both blind here."
Of course Mu Suogen didn't know what Zuo Chang was thinking.
He opened the cover of his compass, and the needles of his compass were spinning.
Zuo Chang said with a smile: "Don't be depressed. I think this place seems to be a 'ruin'. How big can the ruins be? It can't be bigger than Tianwang City! We explore slowly, and there will always be a flattening."
Mu Suogen shook his head again: "Mr. Zuo, look carefully. Is there a circle of black ink on the edge of the compass dial?"
Zuo Chang lowered his head and looked, and sure enough!
On the surface of the lust compass, there is a circle of slightly squirming "black ink".
Within a few seconds of staring, the length of the black ink seemed to change - it became a little shorter.
"three hours."
Mu Suogen stretched out three fingers and spoke again.
"This circle of black ink only exists for three hours. When the black ink runs out, we will be forced to be sent under the statue of the Dark God, and we will not be able to enter again until twelve hours later. And... the real exploration time may be even shorter."
Zuo Chang really knows nothing.
He asked: "Mr. Mu seems to be very experienced."
"I have no experience. I've only been here a few times, but I still haven't had a big breakthrough. Follow me."
Mu Suogen waved and took Zuo Chang onto the road to the north.
It was normal at first.
As he walked, Zuo Chang's vision broadened for no reason. The refreshing sea breeze hits your face, the blue sea rises and falls, and there is a golden beach in front of you!
this……
Zuo Chang turned around subconsciously and found that there was still a dim ruins corridor behind him.
The magnificent sea view in front of me is as unreal as a sticker.
Mu Suogen stopped.
He pointed to the sand a few centimeters in front of his feet and said: "If we go one step further, we can't go back to the ruins and enter the beach. I have been to the beach area three times - each time I spent all my time and got nothing. Usually, I came to the beach area three times. For my part, I would choose another path.”
Mu Suogen turned around, took Zuo Chang back to the original place, and walked towards the south corridor.
There are no wonders in the southern corridor.
There was a wretched old man lying at the end of the road. He looked at the visitor and showed an ugly smile: "Do you need to open the door? You two. As long as you pay 'one hour', I can open the door for you."
Zuo Chang raised his head.
Behind the wretched old man, there was a tightly closed iron door.
