Chapter 148 The Quietly Opened Portal
Chapter 148 The Quietly Opened Portal
The fight between Ali and Esdeath ended in nothing.
As Ali became more and more absent-minded, her state gradually failed to keep up with Esdeath's rhythm. Esdeath also realized that Ali had no intention of continuing to fight, so she stopped.
A boring fight was not what Esdeath needed, so the competition ended like this.
Late at night, after restoring the magic for Esdeath and Wilme, Ali quietly came to Lu Xing's room.
Without much communication, Yali began to have a mad affair with Lu Xing.
Yali was venting, venting the fear in her heart.
Before she came into contact with this power, Ali was naturally not afraid, but after she actually came into contact with this power, Ali became afraid.
It's not that I'm afraid of how strong the opponent is.
But she was afraid of that sense of destiny, a destiny that she could not resist no matter how strong she became!
The feeling of near despair scared Yali, and in order to vent her fear, she came to Lu Xing.
And pay attention to being around him, so that she can stop thinking about it and put everything behind her.
After a crazy night, Ali fell asleep at dawn.
Lu Xing hugged Yali and didn't say anything, but was thinking quickly.
As someone who knew the whole story, he understood best how Ali felt at the moment. The curse lurking in her blood needed to be cut off in order for Ali to be completely freed.
"It's difficult. It's extremely difficult to remove the curse on Esther."
Lu Xing sighed in his heart. There was no good intelligence from the federal government. All he could do now was to wait for several specific portal worlds to open and try to remove the curse from Esther.
Under this premise, Esther will cut off the curse in Ali's blood.
While thinking about this, Lu Xing gradually fell asleep.
But no one expected that with Ali's job change to Demon King, a series of unexpected events would follow!
……
Gengchen County is located more than a thousand kilometers away from the border with Gengyou County.
Accompanied by a slight vibration, the space distorted, and a new portal was about to take shape.
But just as it was about to take shape, a large number of people and supplies were already gathered around it.
Under Orochimaru's guidance, several mages followed the process and began to activate the formation, preparing to seal the newly created portal.
They have done this countless times during this period, so they are quite familiar with it.
However, as the portal was completely formed and the formation was successfully activated, the portal that should have been sealed and disappeared still stubbornly remained in place.
"Failed?"
At this moment, the person in charge of sealing the formation was also a little confused.
Frowning, he tried again, but with the second attempt, the portal still stubbornly remained.
This strange situation left them helpless and they could only contact their superiors to ask how to deal with it.
But just when he was trying to contact his superiors, a violent space vibration occurred, interfering with the signal and preventing the call from going through.
It also drew everyone's attention to this new portal.
As the space vibrated, the portal slowly dissipated, as if it was sealed, disappearing bit by bit.
Seeing this scene, the person in charge of sealing the formation also put away his phone.
In their opinion, it was probably because the seal of the formation was delayed, which caused the seal to be activated. So there was no need to report it, and they could just pack up and go somewhere else.
But just as they were watching, the slowly disappearing portal mysteriously reappeared in another place.
A place that is closely related to this portal!
……
It was not until dawn that Lu Xing got up to do his daily exercise, and was pulled over by Rem and Ram who were out buying groceries.
When Lu Xing looked at the portal that appeared strangely less than ten meters away from their villa, he was completely stunned.
You know, the birth of a portal is always accompanied by a sense of vibration that the human body can definitely feel, as well as a feeling of spatial distortion.
However, this portal that suddenly appeared was clearly less than ten meters away from their villa, and no one in the villa noticed when it appeared.
It was not until Lu Xing called out Jarvis and checked the surveillance footage that he saw that at 4:26 in the morning, this strange portal had appeared there so mysteriously.
This unscientific!
Not magical either!
There was no movement at all, which was a good thing that no living creature came out. If there really was a monster walking out of the door, not to mention being injured, Lu Xing and the others would probably have no chance of saving the villa.
This really can't be blamed on Lu Xing and the others for not being vigilant enough, but rather, such a thing has never happened since the portal was founded. It's really too normal that it was unexpected.
After the alarm was sounded, everyone gathered together and looked at the entrance. Everyone was stunned for a moment, and then they all went into alert.
The distance is so close, no matter what, we must give up other things and conquer them first, only then can we calm people's hearts!
All combat members changed into combat attire, and after gathering together, under the command of Lu Xing, they were extremely vigilant and tried to use a forged spear to probe into the gate.
Wait a moment and take it back.
Seeing that the spear was still intact, Lu Xing and the others breathed a sigh of relief.
Lu Xing took off his gas mask, took the war hammer and walked into the portal first.
The familiar darkness transitioned to a bright light in front of my eyes, and the high temperature all around was also transmitted over.
"hiss."
Lu Xing took a deep breath. At this moment, he was a few meters away from a lava lake. The surroundings were barren. Apart from rocks and lava, there was no sign of any living creature.
"Death Zone?"
Lu Xing muttered to himself.
In the many portal worlds, it does happen occasionally that a small portal will appear in deathly silence, except for a few creatures that may be lurking deep underground or in extremely remote places. The entire portal world will be desolate.
Such a portal world is called the Dead Zone.
The difficulty of gambling in the Dead Zone is among the top three, because there is no information and no creatures to communicate with.
To conquer such a portal world, one must either cleanse the area and exterminate the hidden creatures, or keep it and continuously transport suitable resources to the real world. Once the resources are emptied, one can wait for the portal to dissipate on its own.
There is no other way.
This situation made Lu Xing feel a little relieved.
If it is the Dead Zone, you don’t have to worry too much about the danger of this portal. After ensuring safety, you can slow down and explore slowly.
"But let's verify it."
Lu Xing took out the treasure detector and identified the treasure as the core.
He adjusted the exploration range to the maximum. Just when Lu Xing had given up hope, a red spot of light suddenly flashed on the treasure detector.
Lu Xing was stunned for a moment.
"It really does!"
