Chapter 2440 Hello, I am the Deputy City Lord of Jincheng!
"Who?"
Ling Tian turned around suddenly and saw Wen Bing, whom he had met at Wang Kai's wedding, looking at him with a smile on her face.
Because Ling Tian hid in the house to avoid the sight of the monster in the sky, he had not paid attention to his back and seemed not to hear the sound of Wen Bing coming.
Wen Bing noticed Ling Tian's slightly nervous expression, then looked up at the roof and said, "I understand. Are you worried about the Sky Beast? Don't worry, it's wandering around because it's afraid its wings will degenerate, not for reconnaissance. No, no."
Wen Bing smiled and waved his hands, but Ling Tian noticed his strange movements and frowned slightly. "Can you see it? Isn't this room we're in an illusion? How can you see it?"
"Ok?"
Hearing Ling Tian's question, Wen Bing laughed, then hurriedly took out a high-grade crystal from his pocket and handed it to Ling Tian, saying: "Try to hold this, and then you will understand."
Hearing this, Ling Tian took it with a little curiosity. However, the moment he held the high-grade crystal stone, the house he was in began to slowly rot. Finally, it became a house without a roof, and he could see the sky directly. Everything in the house was in tatters. No, it should be the four walls.
Because of the ceiling, there is no cover at all, and you can probably see everything inside the house clearly from above.
Ok!
Ling Tian then realized that he had not been hiding well, but had been in the sight of the monster the whole time?
Then what's the point of being so careful?
Just to let the monsters laugh at you?
Ling Tian smiled helplessly, looking up at Wen Bing and asking, "What's going on? Could it be that a high-grade crystal stone has this effect? The so-called illusion-shattering effect?"
"Not really." Wen Bing shook his head. "In fact, I don't know if you have noticed that crystals of medium quality and above almost all have some small effects. And this top-grade crystal has the effect of breaking illusions. Anyone who catches it will not be deceived by the illusion."
"Of course, there are crystals with other effects, such as those that can heal injuries, and those that can keep people awake and not feel tired. But these are hard to come by. I even snatched this crystal from a monster."
Hearing Wen Bing's words, Ling Tian frowned slightly, and a hint of curiosity appeared in his heart.
It seems that I don’t know much about crystals at all?
Before, I always thought that crystals were only used to improve one's realm, but now, as I understand more and more about crystals, I finally discovered why top-grade crystals have become so precious.
Ling Tian pondered, took out one of his top-grade crystals, looked at Wen Bing and said, "How should I test the effects of these crystals? Do I have to test them bit by bit?"
Hearing this, Wen Bing looked at the crystal in Ling Tian's hand, raised an eyebrow, and said in surprise, "This...a top-grade crystal. I heard that it needs some medium to exert its so-called effect, but I don't know what it needs. You can only understand and find it yourself."
Wen Bing finished speaking, and withdrew his gaze from the crystal. He then looked at his own top-grade crystal in Ling Tian's hand and said, "That... my crystal..."
"Can you lend it to me?" Ling Tian looked at Wen Bing and spoke softly.
In fact, Ling Tian’s original intention was to find out whether the top-grade crystal had the effect he thought it had.
But after listening to Wen Bing's words, he suddenly felt that he would not be able to find the so-called medium in the near future. It would be better to directly borrow his crystal and then go to the castle to take a look.
After all, the entire Golden City is in an illusion. If you don’t have an item to break the illusion, you will easily be targeted by monsters.
At that time, if the monster sets its target on itself, it will become more difficult to break the illusion.
Therefore, Ling Tiancai would think of discussing it with Wen Bing.
Wen Bing heard Ling Tian's question and shook her head. "I can't give this to you. I need it myself. But you, haven't you already eliminated the Wang family? Why are you in Jincheng again?"
"I came here to look for something and someone."
"Who are you looking for?" Wen Bing said curiously, "If I knew, I could give you some clues."
"Du Yanfeng, I'm here to look for him. He's the older brother of one of my companions. We couldn't find him outside of Jincheng, so we came to the city to look for him."
After these words were spoken, Wen Bing was obviously stunned.
Perhaps he didn't expect that Ling Tian wanted to find Du Yanfeng.
After a brief pause, Wen Bing looked at Ling Tian and said seriously, "Du Yanfeng...you'd better not think about looking for him. You won't find him. If this is your only goal, then I advise you to go back."
Hearing Wen Bing's words, Ling Tian was slightly stunned and asked in confusion: "What do you mean? What do you mean you can't find him? Did you see him? Did something happen to him?"
Ling Tian's repeated inquiries made Wen Bing sigh and shake his head: "It's not that anything happened, but he was wiped out a long time ago. Did you see those people?"
Wen Bing said this, pointing to the Heaven Shaking Realm warriors surrounding the castle.
"Yes, I saw them. Almost all of them are at the Heaven-Shaking Realm, but why do I feel like they are just living their normal lives, as if they haven't seen any monsters?"
"It's not that I didn't see it." Wen Bing shook his head. "It's that the city lord wanted to punish them, so he made them do these hard labors and let them rebuild the city. After all, the city lord doesn't want to stay in these ruins forever, and he also wants to have some followers of his own."
"Just like these illusions, they are all the City Lord's ideas. It won't be long before the City Lord realizes them. But the Du Yanfeng you are looking for was eliminated because he opposed the City Lord. I met Du Yanfeng before attending the Wang family wedding, but he was taken there to meet the City Lord. The rest..."
Wen Bing didn't continue, but Ling Tian guessed something.
Taking him there to meet the city lord was obviously a mistake, and it would be difficult for him to survive.
After a moment's reflection, Ling Tian suddenly recalled some details from Wen Bing's words. He looked at Wen Bing fiercely and asked, "You said... before you left, you saw Du Yanfeng being escorted to meet the City Lord. Then why weren't you caught? Are you living in the castle? Also, why did you attend the Wang family wedding?"
The moment these questions came out, Wen Bing smiled and said, "You... finally figured it out? As expected, I said I couldn't hide for too long. Anyway, your appearance in Jincheng has been considered as completing the mission assigned by the City Lord."
Wen Bing finished speaking, looked at Ling Tian, who was full of doubt, and slowly extended his hand, saying, "Let me introduce myself. I am Wen Bing, the deputy city lord of Jincheng! Please give me your guidance!"
