Game world survival starts from Resident Evil 2 - Chapter 553

c547 Church of the Tree of Rites, golden figure

“…I’m sorry, I don’t know the details either.”

Beside the cross sign in front of the Tower Town, after hearing Li You’s request that suddenly appeared, Ampah’s voice also revealed a hint of embarrassment.

“Although I was originally going to Shadow City, as you can see, I haven’t set out yet, so I naturally don’t know the specific situation in the city.”

“That’s right.” Li You pressed his forehead, “How could I forget about this.”

“But…I also got some gossip, I wonder if it’s helpful to you?”

“Hmm?” Li You looked at him, “What gossip?”

Ampah stroked his beard gently: “After all, I’m not good at fighting, so in order to help Lord Michaela, I also brought my former warriors here. I sent them out to collect intelligence before, and in the rough report I received, there was indeed information about the Shadow Tree.”

“You also brought your subordinates?” Li You was a little surprised, and he thought of the group of blood nobles who came to attack in the Mongwen Dynasty Temple before coming here.

I wonder if Ampah is really loyal or has been bewitched by Michaela? If it is the latter, when the bewitching is over, can he face what he has done?

“I used to have some prestige among the pureblood knights, and naturally I have trustworthy subordinates.” Ampah naturally didn’t know what Li You was thinking, and said directly, “According to the report I received, to get to the bottom of the Shadow Tree, you need to pass through the parish of Shadow City, but the parish seems to have been flooded by the indigenous people in the city, and it is temporarily inaccessible.”

“The…parish of Shadow City?”

This is not the first time Li You has heard of this place. Not long ago, Kara asked him to explore this area.

Is it a coincidence, or Kara’s subconscious guidance?

Li You frowned and stretched his brows. Now he couldn’t get the answer anyway, so he didn’t think about it anymore. Anyway, he went to this parish first.

“…Please note that according to the information, it seems that you cannot reach the parish in the city from the species collection. You may need to find another way to get there.”

Anpahe reminded very carefully: “You said that Ms. Kara specifically asked you to explore the parish. I’m afraid this is also because she has noticed something hidden there. You still need to be careful. Next, I will rush to Shadow City with others to support you.”

“I understand. Thank you.”

After getting the information he wanted, Li You planned to leave.

Among Michaela’s followers, which ones are devoted to him and which ones are enchanted, Li You is not sure. And he is also not sure whether Kara, who escaped from him before, will tell Leida about him.

Judging from Leida’s reaction when she saw him, she obviously didn’t know the relationship between Kara and herself before, but it’s hard to say after this.

So, if you make the worst plan, Leida may draw her sword and stab you the next time you see her. Li You really doesn’t have that much time to delay.

“…Wait!”

Just when Li You was about to leave through the blessing teleportation, Ampah stopped him: “There is something I want you to pay attention to.”

Li You: “Hmm?”

Ampah looked at Moore, who was sitting quietly and holding a jar, and said: “It’s Mr. Moore’s business. As you know, he and his collectors have been collecting supplies for us and have made great contributions.”

“But recently, Mr. Moore seems to have lost contact with several collectors. He is very worried about his companions, so if you find anything during your journey, please lend a hand.”

So this is the matter, Li You understood. Moore, who was collecting supplies, he had talked to this person before, but Brother Moore obviously didn’t like to talk much. His lines were basically the same style as Yuzu, and there was nothing to talk about.

At this time, Ampah’s request was not a big deal, so Li You naturally agreed. Ampah said for Moore: “Thank you. I wish you a smooth exploration.”

Li You nodded lightly and then teleported away.

…

The main gate square of Shadow City.

Li You and his group gathered here.

While Li You went back to ask Ampah, Yuzu and the other two stayed in Shadow City, searching around. Li You originally planned to take them with him, but V said it was best to make full use of the time, so he stayed.

At this moment, Li You came back, and Yuzu, Aggie and V also came back: “How is the situation?”

Li You shared the information he got from Ampah, and after listening, the three of them also gave their investigation results: “We searched from the main gate of Shadow City to the outside of the species storage, and found an underground drainage area, but from the location, it was the road to the area outside the city. As for the parish, we didn’t know it before, so we didn’t investigate.”

After looking at the location pointed out by V, Li You briefly went over the structure of Shadow City in his mind, and shook his head: “It’s indeed not the road to the parish. It’s okay, just go straight over here.”

Compared with the protagonist of the game, the Fader, Li You’s biggest advantage in exploration is that he can fly.

Armed hovercrafts are very convenient except for their high energy consumption. Even if the hovercraft is damaged and is still being repaired, Li You can fly it by himself. This alone makes him much stronger than the protagonist of the Soul series who finally got his knees after reaching the Dharma Ring.

So Li You sent Yuzu and the others back to the companion space again, and then directly transformed into a dragon man and flew into the sky.

Flying in mid-air, Li You’s golden pupils glanced toward the east, and he saw clearly a relatively low, submerged building complex over there. He also saw a particularly tall magician’s tower further away and a cathedral on the other side.

Obviously, there must be something worth exploring in those two places, but Li You only cares about where the Shadow Tree is now. So he flapped his wings behind him and headed towards the flooded parish.

After flying closer, the field of vision became wider, and Li You could see the entire parish clearly.

This is an area composed of chapels on the left and right and a church in the center. At this time, only the roof is exposed above the water. There is also a circular open building in front of the church. It was originally surrounded by a small golden tree, but it was also flooded.

“This area seems to be connected to the species depository… Is it a one-way street?”

Li You saw the road on the other side of the parish that seemed to lead to the previous depository. He was a little confused, but considering the old thief’s map style, it wasn’t too strange. And when his eyes continued to move along the road he saw, a conspicuous circular mechanism appeared in front of him at the end of the road.

His eyes immediately lit up, and the dragon wing landed in front of the mechanism over there.

Li You threw a few flames casually, burning several large bats flying around into charcoal. Then he released the dragon form, held the lever and pushed the mechanism.

Just hearing roars from the distant city wall, the drainage valve opened, releasing the water that flooded the parish into the river below the city.

Watching the water level in the parish slowly drop, Li You stood next to the office and rubbed his chin: “I dreamed of returning to Little Longde.”

The water was soon almost drained away, and the true face of the parish was revealed, but it was in a state of disrepair, and even the little golden tree had long been drowned.

Li You didn’t care about that. He was about to drop from the office to the parish below, but suddenly he was shocked and his whole body instantly stopped in place!

Just now, a strong sense of crisis suddenly came to his mind, like a steel needle pricking the back of his neck.

“It feels like…I’m being watched?”

Li You stood there, seemingly motionless, but in fact he was on full alert.

At the same time, he was also thinking quickly about who could be targeting him and giving him such a strong sense of crisis. Who would have such strength?

“…Kara? Leda? I still haven’t met Messemer, or even…Mikayla?”

Li You roughly circled a range. If he wanted to choose among the people he knew, there would not be many possibilities, and among them, Leda’s strength could not give him such a strong sense of crisis. Kara’s true level now Not sure, but it doesn’t seem like it.

“Either the eldest demigod, or the demigod ‘closest to God’…” Li You smiled, “You really think highly of me.”

I don’t know if he heard him talking to himself, but the feeling of being watched subsided immediately, and Li You also relaxed.

“If it’s really those two demigods, there will probably be trouble. The old thief can’t put the final BOSS battle in Shadow City here, right? It’s not really Little Lund…” At this moment, I only heard In the parish below, there was another series of vibrations. Two rotten tree spirits, like tree roots becoming spirits, broke out of the ground from the foot of the Little Golden Tree and the chapel further away!

“Ouch-ouch——!!”

Two corrupt tree spirits lay on the ground, looking up to the sky and howling!

“Two corrupted tree spirits? You TND, old thief… is wrong.” Seeing this formation, Li You subconsciously planned to curse, but he noticed that there was obviously a distance between the two corrupted tree spirits, and even a difference in height.

“It seems he’s not an old thief, but that guy just now, right? Are you determined to not let me get close to the Shadow Tree?”

In this way, the suspect would be better identified.

“Michaela…this little girl has a lot of clever ideas!”

Li You raised his eyebrows, waved his hand and pulled out the spiral sword.

“I really liked Michaela.”

He then made a move, the teleportation array appeared, and Yuzi and the other three also appeared.

“Dear employees, it’s time to work overtime!”

With that said, Li You jumped down from the edge of the high platform next to the mechanism, pulled the grappling hook, flew into the air towards the first corrupted tree spirit, and stabbed down with all his strength with the spiral sword!

The flames of the spiral sword suddenly burst out!

“boom–”

“I’ll leave that one to you!”

Yuzi and the other three responded immediately: “I understand!”

Then, Yuzu also flew up, transformed directly into the form of a wooden dragon, and flew Aiji and V towards the second corrupted tree spirit further away.

Before she even got close to close combat distance, Yuzu roared violently, and her flame breath spurted out: “Roar!!”

The rotten tree spirit was burned all over its head and face. It roared angrily and immediately pounced on Yuzi, fighting with him who had deliberately lowered his height.

——After a short fierce battle.

“Tsk tsk tsk.”

The flames of the spiral sword burned the body of the first corrupted tree spirit, turning its flesh almost into charcoal.

During the battle, Li You directly pierced the spiral gun into the big mouth of the corrupt tree spirit, threw it into its body, and then released the flames of the spiral gun with all his strength, quickly subduing it.

In fact, during the battle, Li You also felt that the sense of crisis of being targeted faded and appeared, and it was obvious that someone had been observing him secretly.

However, this time the sense of threat is not as strong as before, it seems that there is someone else watching the situation. But in short, until Li You solved his opponent, the snoop didn’t show up or take action.

When Li You tore open the somewhat carbonized shell of the corrupt tree spirit and pulled out the spiral gun from it, Yuzu, who was a little further away, had already torn the second corrupt tree spirit into several large pieces with the help of Edge and V.

Yuzu then recovered his human form, and the three came to join him. Li You saw that Yuzu’s magic power consumption was a bit large, so he handed him the medicine gourd, but Yuzu said that he could directly eat the core of the corrupt tree spirit to recover his magic power faster.

Li You: “That’s fine.”

After dealing with the two corrupt tree spirits blocking the way, Li You simply identified the direction, observed the layout of the parish, and led his companions to the church behind the small golden tree.

The road to the shadow tree is definitely here, and no one knows the old thief’s map better than him.

Although Edge and V still have some doubts about his confident words, it turns out that Li You is still right this time.

After entering the church, a number of charred corpses with flames were awakened and emerged from the ground. At the end of the church, under the statue of Queen Marika, a flame knight wearing a strange helmet came out, emitting dark red magic light around him.

He pointed his hand, and the charred corpses rushed up like a death squad, with flames rising on their bodies, wanting to play bombing with him.

“Puff–”

Li You flashed directly and pierced the chest of the old flame knight with a gun: “Sorry, I’m in a hurry.”

The old flame knight widened his eyes, but was unable to fight back, and fell to the ground with a plop. The resurrected charred corpses also lost power and turned back into ordinary corpses.

The group continued to move forward, but they still encountered the second enemy blocking the way after only two steps.

In the passage ahead, a figure condensed in the red aura and appeared. A flame knight shrouded in blood-red light appeared. It turned out to be a rare hostile invasion.

He held a unique heavy rapier in his hand, wearing the armor of the Flame Knight, but without a helmet, revealing his macho bob hairstyle, which looked a bit funny.

However, the man himself was very serious. He raised the heavy rapier in his hand and said in a deep voice: “——Death will befall those who are not blessed by gold. Be swallowed by the fire of Messermo…”

“Puff–”

Li You flashed again and pierced the chest of the Bob-headed Flame Knight with a gun: “Say it again, I’m in a hurry.”

The Bob-headed Flame Knight widened his eyes, but was unable to fight back. He fell down with a plop, and the body condensed by the red aura dissipated.

These two are the only enemies worth mentioning. As for the others, they are just some crabs of different sizes who have taken the wrong road. Anyway, as long as they block the way, they will be pierced by Li You’s gun.

In this way, Li You and his party passed through the passage in the parish, took a high elevator, and came to an underground secret passage.

There are no enemies here. They went forward, passed through a long and narrow underground tunnel, and then passed a wooden fence bridge built on an underground cliff, which gave people a sense of déjà vu, and finally came to a hidden church.

Inside the church, at the end was still the headless statue of Queen Marika. There were rows of wooden benches in the hall, but they were already covered with dust, and it was obvious that no one had visited for a long time.

From the plaque carved on the wall at the entrance, Li You learned the name of the church here: “Church of the Tree of Honor?”

“People in this shadowy land will also come here to worship this tree.”

Of course, Li You still didn’t care much about these. He looked at the stairs on both sides of the end of the church and was about to go there.

But at this moment, in the center of the Church of the Tree of Honor, below the statue of Queen Marika, a light golden magic circle suddenly appeared, with a familiar emblem engraved on it, and a figure with the same golden light and unclear face emerged from it.

Li You and the others were on high alert, but although the golden figure’s specific appearance could not be seen clearly, it seemed that there was a strong attraction and affinity invisibly, which made people not feel hostile to him, and even subconsciously wanted to get close to him.

“Um…!!”

Even Li You was affected by the figure at the first time, and almost wanted to throw down his weapon and kneel down to the figure, not to mention his companions.

Fortunately, he realized that something was wrong and immediately raised his hand and slapped the figure.

The figure looked at the reaction of Li You and the others, nodded slightly with satisfaction, and then said in a serious manner: “All powerful heroes…”

As a result, he had just started talking when Li You stepped forward and slapped him.

The figure: “???”
