Title IX Chapter 104 Sand Crystal Vortex
"There is one thing I would like to remind you a little bit. Although our prison envoy is linked to the prison, it is not a native creature in the prison. This article is first published by... Our souls still belong to the human world, so these local creatures are more or less rejecting us. You need to pay more attention to the seeds you rescued."
"I'll give you this thing, be careful."
Bone doctor Mingkai threw the bracelet in his hat back to Zhang Chen.
"Thank you, senior." When Zhang Chen took the bracelet, the other party had disappeared into the misty prison night.
"Five-star assessment... I guess my master wanted me to fail the assessment and then give up this action in prison. However, this made me know how big the gap between me and the top ten is. If I cannot be used in ghosts, I will not be able to squeeze into the top ten this year."
"Master, you are grateful for your kind disciple."
Zhang Chen has made up his mind. If he cannot achieve his goal, facing facelessness is like a moth flying into a fire, with no difference from death.
This year, Zhang Chen had to go to this place in prison.
"The place mentioned in Jizhong is almost approaching the border between prisons, and it is still thousands of kilometers away from me, so it takes a lot of time. On the way, we can see if we can use some prisons to make small towns built for rest."
The place that Zhang Chen had discussed with Jizhong before was the real Jiren Cave, located near the border.
Jizhong has rushed from the underground after escaping today, and Zhang Chen will naturally slow down a little. After all, in the night environment, there is no replenishment of the energy of the body by the breath of imprisonment. The continuous use of space transfer will greatly increase the body's load.
"It's so desolate."
Zhang Chen had been doing more than hundreds of kilometers and even a prison envoy did not see him, but he saw many very strange creatures, and the other party had no tendency to attack Zhang Chen.
Because he had never met the city-state on the road, Zhang Chen had no choice but to rest on the side of the road, sit cross-legged and enter a state of meditation, which not only allowed the brain to enter a sleep state, but also maintained a warning to the surrounding environment.
When the day goes by, Zhang Chen can move forward without interruption using his space ability.
"Home! How can there be a prison guard here..." After continuous space span, about 15,000 kilometers later, we arrived at the front end of the Jiren Cave that we agreed with Jiren Cave. There are digital patrol prisons near Jiren Cave.
Zhang Chen did not intend to contact these prison envoys on the border, after all, he had no right reason to come here.
"Zhang Chen. Take seven steps back." Ji Zong's voice came to Zhang Chen's eardrums in a low voice. After Zhang Chen took seven steps back, he felt that the land under him was less than one meter thick. Then he turned into blood and immersed in the cave under the soil.
"How is it? Is there a way to leave the border quietly?" Zhang Chen asked.
"This place is my home, and there are many secret passages that your companions cannot know. As long as you are ready, you can directly leave the control of your companions by arriving."
"Let's go now."
Zhang Chen kept the time very tight. After all, he didn't know what he would experience after arriving at that place. After all, he only had one year.
"The more you go west, the environment between prisons is worse. I have never understood the locations marked on your map. Because there are other creatures that are stronger than me in this part. Once they invade their territory, it will be immediately attacked by them."
"You try to take me around at that time. If it is inevitable, you can only kill me."
"Don't you need to have something that is necessary for your race to live? If you eat food, you may feel awkward to eat the things in prison. You can go to the town where your race lives first and prepare everything."
"Okay, you're here at any time?" Zhang Chen asked.
"This is my home. Only when outsiders invade, I will feel it as soon as possible. When you are ready to come here, I will naturally meet you." Ji Zhong replied.
After Zhang Chen nodded and left, the seeds left in the cave quickly merged into the cave without any facial expressions.
"A city-state on the border?"
Not far from Jiren Cave, Zhang Chen finally came to the border of the prison envoy's territory, and a city-state smaller than Lingcheng was reflected in Zhang Chen's eyes.
"Who?"
Outside the city gate, there were four prison envoys of prison level handed over to guard the shift. Seeing that Zhang Chen had not taken any means of transportation and was walking alone, he couldn't help but feel alert.
For prison eyes, Zhang Chen's control methods can basically be unaware of them.
"Sir, please come in." Within one second, Zhang Chen had already taken a lot of information about this border city-state from the other party's mind. The main problem he came here this time was to equip some food to provide him with food on the way to his destination.
However, after a while, Zhang Chen realized that the food in this city was extremely expensive.
It is basically difficult to find edible creatures in prison. Therefore, food needs to be transported from the human world. For the border, there are food supplies from Lingcheng here every month, but the quantity is limited and corresponds to the population here. It is very rare to find excess food.
In the end, Zhang Chen used dozens of high-level ghost crystals to exchange for two months of food. It was not that he didn't want to change more, but that the food resources had been replaced by himself. If he finished eating the food while he was doing things, Zhang Chen had to think of a way himself.
"Everyone living in this city-state looks gloomy. It seems that the conditions on the border seem to be very difficult."
Zhang Chen did not stay for a long time but immediately met with Jizhong. Under the leadership of Jizhong, he left the border directly from the underground cave secret passage and arrived at another 50% of the unexplored areas in the entire prison.
"The longest length of the secret passage is to reach here. The next journey of nearly 40,000 kilometers requires us to hike."
"Forty thousand kilometers?" Zhang Chen was still a little shocked at this number. After all, it was almost possible to circle the earth for a whole circle, and he needed to walk to it.
Wait until you leave the cave and arrive at the ground.
"What? How did the environment change?" Zhang Chen stood on the red land, feeling that the breath of prison that should have been very comfortable around his body was gone, but it was a kind of chaotic and unruly exercise air, which was no help to Zhang Chen's body.
"The composition of the air west of the Fama continent is completely different from the east occupied by your race, and now we are just at the junction. As we continue to deepen, the terrain, astronomical phenomena and so on will change."
After hearing the explanation of Jizong, Zhang Chen understood a fundamental reason, why the prison guards did not continue to expand their territory.
"I followed my brothers into the 20,000 kilometers ahead. I can safely take you to 20,000 kilometers away, and I know nothing about the rest of the journey just like you."
"Okay, it's enough to reach the end of the route you know, just leave the rest of the journey to me alone."
Zhang Chen was already very satisfied that the other party could take half of his own way. In the next ten days, Zhang Chen followed Ji Zong and continued to move towards his destination.
When the journey of ten thousand kilometers passed, Zhang Chen obviously felt the change.
The irritating air environment can no longer build a stable space. The terrain begins to turn from a plain to a dangerous mountain road. At the same time, the temperature fluctuates quite a lot, with the lowest temperature reaching minus 50c and the highest reaching 70c. This has a great impact on Zhang Chen's body, and the daily rest time gradually increases.
However, under the leadership of Jizhong, any danger can be predicted in advance, so that the harsh environment along the way is only affected by the harsh environment, and the progress is quite smooth.
"Across the vortex area ahead, you will reach the farthest part of my exploration."
At this time, Zhang Chen had already wrapped his whole body with clothes, revealing his eyes only. The harshness of the environment was beyond the imagination of ordinary people. A high-hardness crystal sand with extremely small particle diameter fluttered in the air. Long-term exposure to the air will cause considerable damage to Zhang Chen's body and will absorb a lot of water.
“Is the vortex area?”
Zhang Chen looked at the land structure in front of him, and vortexes of different sizes extended to invisible depths underground.
"Where are under these vortexes?" Zhang Chen walked around the vortex and asked the citing seeds beside him.
"There is a species living below, called the Sand Crystal Clan. These tiny sand crystals in the air are substances metabolized by their bodies, which are used to create harsh environments on land, so that no external creatures will enter the range of their race. However, as long as we do not enter the vortex, there will be no danger."
"If you want to take a detour, you may have to spend an extra week."
"Well, just take me there. These crystal sands will not cause much harm to me in a short period of time."
Zhang Chen followed Jizeng and moved forward against the edges of vortexes. The visibility was very poor because the sand crystals floated in the air and refracted light everywhere. Not only that, these sand crystals also blocked the induction to a certain extent. Therefore, the speed of the two people's behavior was much slower than usual.
"You can leave the territory of the Shajing tribe after you step over the front, and my lead ends here. Take good care of the rest of the journey."
"Thank you."
There was no vortex in front of Zhang Chen's sight, just a flat ground made of sand crystals. But when he stepped forward, the real ground in his sight was clearly missing.
In Zhang Chen's eyes, a huge vortex had already turned into a front vortex, and these sand crystals had begun to bind their whole body.
"early……"
Zhang Chen was about to enter the state of initial resolving, but the sand crystal in front of him actually formed a five-fingered palm, and pointed the index finger at Zhang Chen's eyebrows.
"Buzz!" The buzzing sound echoed in Zhang Chen's brain, the sea of gods stirred, and his entire consciousness faded. (To be continued.)
