Chapter 381 A City In The Sky
"Okay! Don't make sarcastic remarks! Hurry up and get to work!" The soldier next to him gave him a hand, and then walked towards the cabin, as if he was ready to work.
Xu Ran didn't notice all of this. He was standing on the pier, looking up at the towering behemoth in front of him, couldn't help taking a deep breath, and then walked slowly towards the holy tower with steady steps.
The holy tower is surrounded by a dense forest, and occasionally some vicious demonic beasts can be seen scurrying around in the trees.
As Xu Ran walked, he inspected the surrounding environment. The trees here were very thick, and each tree was entwined with various vines, blocking his sight.
But for Xu Ran, it wasn't difficult. He walked all the way and encountered many vines blocking him, but in the end he escaped easily.
Soon, he came to the holy pagoda. This giant pagoda was ten feet tall, silver-gray all over, glowing faintly, like cast iron.
It stands above the forest, like a majestic sculpture, overlooking the earth, which makes people feel shocked and small.
At the very top of the holy tower, there are five dazzling white lights shooting out from the center of the holy tower, interweaving into a huge spider web, covering the entire holy tower, forming a strong protective film.
Around the holy pagoda, there are stone walls several meters high. These stone walls are covered with runes, which are obviously blessed by some kind of formation.
"Roar!"
Just as Xu Ran was observing here, suddenly a roar resounded throughout the sky.
"The front should be here
Xu Ran raised his head, looked at the huge spider web in the sky, his eyes showed joy, and then continued to move towards the holy tower.
This holy tower covers an extremely large area, at least larger than a village, and various defensive measures are scattered around the holy tower.
And here is the headquarters of this holy tower.
After a while, Xu Ran arrived in front of the holy tower, and saw a few young men riding wolf warriors standing there at the gate of the holy tower, looking at him with a look of vigilance.
Seeing them, Xu Ran frowned slightly, then waved to them: "Hello."
Hearing this, the men riding on the wolf looked at him strangely.
People here are very concerned about face, not to mention that in this kind of public place, they generally don't take the initiative to show favor, let alone greet the enemy.
So when they saw Xu Ran beckoning, these people were stunned.
"Excuse me, who are you looking for?" One of the young people came over and asked.
"Uh..." Xu Ran was at a loss for words and wanted to tell his own background, but felt that this would cause misunderstandings by these people. After all, he also knew that these NPCs were very low in intelligence and could not even think.
"I'm here to find the entrance of the Holy Cult!" That's all Xu Ran could answer.
"Looking for the entrance of the Holy Cult?" These young people were surprised when they heard this, and looked at Xu Ran with strong guard and suspicion.
Because in their eyes, Xu Ran is here to make trouble.
"Do you have any credentials?" One of them said coldly.
Xu Ran froze for a moment, then smiled wryly: "Sorry, I don't have one, I can only ask you for guidance."
"Hmph, sure enough! Not only are you out of your mind, you're also a fool!"
"You are not welcome here! Get out of here! Otherwise, don't blame us for being rude."
...
This group of guards hated Xu Ran very much. They thought Xu Ran was a fool, otherwise how could he do such a thing.
"hehe!"
Xu Ran glanced at these people indifferently, then turned and walked towards the forest.
"Oh, wait a minute, brother, where are you going?" Suddenly, a thin man ran over and stopped Xu Ran.
"What's the matter with you?" Xu Ran asked impatiently, frowning.
"Brother, I think you are miserable alone. If you don't follow us, we will be unlucky. How about letting you hang around?"
Xu Ran frowned, is this guy out of his mind?
"Oh! You want me to join your holy tower guard?" Xu Ran asked lightly.
"Uh, that's right! My name is Mag, and I'm the captain of the Holy Cult Guard." The guy called Ma Wentao said hastily.
Xu Ran shook his head helplessly. Although these people are very strong, their brains are not very smart. Isn't it a waste of resources to do so?
However, he did not show any objection, instead he nodded respectfully and said, "Thank you for your kindness, but I still want to try entering the holy tower."
"you sure?"
Ma Wentao frowned upon hearing the words: "As far as I know, only saints can enter inside the holy tower, that is, the inside of the sky-blue monster that you outsiders say, and the general people who enter have never come out!"
"No, I believe that I have a chance to enter the holy tower, so I hope everyone will let me go, don't worry!" Xu Ran said sincerely.
"In that case, you can go!" Ma Wentao hesitated for a moment, then agreed.
"Thank you!" Xu Ran bowed his hands in salute, and then walked straight towards the holy tower.
As soon as he stepped into this place, a chilly and sinister air rushed towards his face, making his hair stand on end, the blood in his whole body seemed to be frozen, and his whole body became extremely stiff.
"There really is such a terrifying evil spirit here, no wonder people here don't live long, probably because of the holy tower." Xu Ran sighed secretly.
At this time, a transparent barrier appeared in front of Xu Ran, blocking the distance between him and the holy tower.
"Om~"
Xu Ran took out a shiny black crystal nucleus and threw it towards the barrier.
In an instant, the black crystal nucleus flew into the air, bursting out a faint blue light, and fell into the barrier.
Immediately, the pale yellow barrier flickered with a strange ripple, and then disappeared.
Seeing this, Xu Ran threw the black crystal nucleus towards the barrier again.
"Boom~~~"
A thunderous roar sounded, and circles of ripples spread, and the enchantment emerged again.
Seeing this, a smile appeared on the corner of Xu Ran's mouth, he reached out and took off the black crystal nucleus on his arm, and threw it towards the barrier again.
Then this time the pale yellow enchantment.
Seeing this, Xu Ran rushed into the holy tower without hesitation.
In an instant, a ray of light shone on him.
"Shua!"
The light flashed, and the next moment he had already appeared in another area.
"Ok?"
Xu Ran was a little surprised, he didn't expect to come in so easily.
At this time, he found himself in a passage, with torches and oil lamps on both sides illuminating the four directions, giving people a drowsy depression.
"Is this the inside of the sky-blue giant beast?" Xu Ran muttered and stepped forward.
But when he saw that there were small houses inside, he was immediately surprised.
He originally thought that this place should be filled with mountains of corpses and seas of blood, but now it seems that this is not the case at all, and it is full of life instead.
