Chapter 574: 151. Mirror City

   Chapter 574 One hundred and fifty one. Mirror City

  Empty carriages jam the roads everywhere.

   There was no sound, no figure, no fire, and the horses disappeared, as if the carriage had been abandoned for a long time.

  Lu Li walked past the extinguished fire with an oil lamp and walked through the dark and messy carriage house. In the dark gap, it seems that there are malicious eyes following and peeping.

   Lifted the curtains, the luggage was still in the carriage.

  There are no messy footprints on the ground, it may be smoothed by the strong wind, or it may be…

  Lu Li looked away from the surroundings and looked towards the front of the road—the field shrouded in fog also shrouded the royal city, which was just a few hundred meters ahead.

   The disappearance of people here may be related to the proximity to the royal city. When Lu Li came, the convoys who kept their distance from the king city were still waiting in the weird fog.

  Lu Li took out the pocket watch in his pocket and opened the cover. Time does not point to a certain place, nor does it change its direction by turning around. The time is normal, which means there is no weirdness around.

   This pocket watch was borrowed by an exorcist at a caravan gathering place a mile behind him. When the exorcist knew that Lu Li planned to explore the Wangcheng, he gave him this pocket watch that could find the strangeness around him.

   Exorcists seem to like to use time to find weirdness, or weirdness to be time-marked.

  Click——

  Closed the watch cover, Lu Li walked around the carriage and walked forward alone with an oil lamp, where there was a presence that was darker than black.

  Lu Li got closer and closer to it, until he merged into it. Looking around, he suddenly realized that he was standing under the gate of King Ellen City.

  The city gates were open, as if nothing had happened. There was even a line of guards standing upright guarding the city gate.

  Lu Li suddenly raised his head with a feeling, and the upside-down royal city was clearly reflected in the sky a hundred meters above. The gray fog permeated between the two cities, making it difficult to spy on the truth.

   In the upside-down city above his head, Lu Li saw a puddle of rotten silt with eyeballs growing on its body in front of the city gate. One of the silt monsters left its comrade and moved forward.

  Lu Li retracted his gaze and looked at the group of motionless guards in front of the city gate. One of the figures came towards him, and the armor made a clattering sound.

   Lu Li didn't see his figure above.

  Weird is pretending to be human...why.

   With his palms hanging by the holster, Lu Li waited for the guards to walk in front of him. It was a young face. If he didn't consider his expression and his strange nose, he might have been taken as a real person.

"Human... Your identity will be hidden... The Lord will give it back..." A strange, vague tone sounded awkwardly from the young face: "Don't arouse suspicion... The guests of Paradise will have the right to eat you... "

   "What is Paradise?"

  Lu Li likes weirdness to communicate, which usually means he can communicate with and ask questions.

   It's just a slush disguised as a human who doesn't want to communicate with Lu Li. In the middle of nowhere, Lu Li suddenly felt that there was something that was paying attention to this place for a short time, as if his eyes were cast. Then the "guard" told Lu Li, "Shutes University... After you arrive, the Lord will tell you the next step..."

   Lu Li didn't answer, he looked at the Upside Down City in the air again, looking for undiscovered details.

   "Can you see the Lord's Paradise...?"

   Surprisingly, the "guard" who didn't intend to communicate suddenly took the initiative to ask.

  Lu Li retracted his gaze and nodded lightly.

   "Guardian" had an indescribable change in Lu Li's attitude. Although it was difficult to tell whether the change was good or bad, it proactively reminded Lu Li: "Throw away the oil lamp...it will reveal that you are human..."

   After a little thought, Lu Li put down the oil lamp, leaving only the extinguished "lighthouse".

   While the "guards" could still communicate, Lu Li asked again, "Did a female spirit enter the city an hour ago?"

   "The Lord knows everything...and will arrange everything..."

   In a squirming whisper, the "Guardian" retreated to its comrades, leaving behind the words that seemed to refer, but were ambiguous.

  Lu Li knew where the Shuites University was, but he wondered if it had something to do with the so-called "Lord knows everything".

   After losing the oil lamp, Lu Li could still see in the dark city. The street lights glowed with a faint and deserted light, and the city was filled with shades of gray that were different from black, as if it was a city entrenched in the ground.

  Five fingers can be clearly seen even in the deep alleys, dark night doesn't work here.

  Lu Li came to the street, thinking quietly at the same time.

   This usually represents a possibility: the existence in control here is more eerie and powerful than the dark night. Maybe it's the evil god, maybe it's what the evil **** said, that great existence as vast as a group of stars...

   There were still sparse passers-by walking on the street, as if nothing had happened. Only when you look up at the upside-down city in the sky will you see the same figure on the upside-down street.

  Lu Li observed the street and the street above: a middle-aged gentleman in a top hat, a tuxedo and holding a cane was an empty skeleton in the Upside Down City. A pair of children chasing each other and running past with laughter are two illusory ghosts in Upside Down City. A graceful woman with a graceful figure who winked playfully at herself is a shadow like a black mist.

   It was also mixed with real humans—people who, like Lu Li, could not be seen in the Upside-Down City.

   They walked among the group of monsters very naturally, as if they didn't notice it - of course it was impossible. The blood strewn on the streets and the occasional screams that cut through the dark night sky are enough to etch in their hearts what is happening now.

   But they were still unmoved, walking as usual, like...the weird ones.

   Maybe that's why they survived: the rules of the "paradise", causing suspicion to be eaten, they want to make themselves the same as usual.

   So, before Lu Li's eyes, there is a scene of human beings living with a strange "harmonious" life, albeit a twisted twist.

  Looking at the long street, the damp bluestone road under the street lights stretches forward. It is not stagnant water. The sound of sticky water when you step on it and the sound of licking in the alley indicate that it is actually blood.

  The scraps of minced meat were scattered, kicked away by people and "people" who didn't care to pass by, and landed at the entrance of alleys or in front of roadside sewers. At this time, one or several skinny claws will quickly stretch out from the darkness, scramble to grab the minced meat and withdraw into the darkness, and then a chewing sound will be heard.

   Echoing screams and screams cut through the night sky from time to time, never stopping.

  This is a weird city.

   "What are you looking at?" A gentle female voice suddenly sounded from beside him.

   A lady with delicate makeup stood beside Lu Li and asked kindly and curiously.

  Lu Li didn't answer, but raised his head again and looked at the city that was upside down.

   A monster with a bloated stomach was piled beside him, its top mouth was hanging on top of Lu Li's head, and the viscous saliva dripped from the side.

   It is questioning Lu Li.

  It wants to eat Lu Li.
