Chapter 1828 Black Fog
Fana paused and looked ahead. She said, "The rifts in the City of Darkness are extremely difficult to deal with, but it's still alright. Very few unknown creatures appear from the rifts in the City of Darkness. It's one of the least dangerous types."
"After observing the rift for a few years, the Federation adjusted the danger rating to the lowest level and designated the area around the rift as a forbidden area."
"There are special strength fluctuations in the City of Darkness area. Any communication and energy perception will be blocked after entering the area. This is extremely special."
"After that, the criminals discovered that the perception barrier could avoid a lot of trouble, so they all carried out some shady transactions in the rift area."
"As more and more people gathered, several small forces jointly established an underground trading point there. It is widely known as the City of Darkness."
Fang Heng understood.
The City of Darkness was probably an underground platform jointly built by several small underground forces doing some shady things in the dark.
Fana drove the car for more than two hours before slowing down and stopping at the edge of a forest.
Fang Heng checked his phone.
They had not officially entered the City of Darkness area, and their cell phone signal had completely lost its signal more than ten minutes ago.
Fang Heng stuck his head out of the car window and looked out.
There were a few thatched cottages built by the forest.
It was already late at night, and the lights in the thatched cottages were still on.
"Fang Heng, wait for me."
Fana said as she got out of the car and walked into one of the thatched cottages alone.
Soon, Fana left the thatched cottage with a cloth bag. She got back into the car and threw the cloth bag to Fang Heng in the backseat.
"What is this?"
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtFang Heng opened the cloth bag and found that there were tiny shells inside.
"They are polar blue clam shells and have been processed with a special technique. Each one has a special mark."
"The inside of the City of Darkness is almost isolated from all communication with the outside world. It's also impossible to use the Internet, and even games are not allowed. Therefore, most of the transactions inside are barter trade."
Fana continued to explain, "These shells are hard currency. The few thatched cottages outside are an exchange point. You can use the shells here to exchange for Federation currency. One shell is worth 100,000 Federation coins."
"Alright."
Fana continued to drive the off-road vehicle forward until she stopped in front of a catacomb.
"We're here."
Fang Heng helped Gu Qingzhu out of the car.
In front of him was a mountain wall and there was a catacomb entrance on the wall.
"This is one of the entrances to the catacomb in the City of Darkness. Follow me."
Fana turned on the flashlight and stepped into the catacomb first, leading the way.
"There are many entrances to the City of Darkness, and the Federation will need a lot of manpower to guard this place completely. At first, Liu Anbang was worried that the game rift would spread, so the guards were very tight. After a scant years, they found that the rift was not dangerous, so to save money, they gradually weakened the defense strength."
"Later, this place was discovered by someone with ulterior motives."
"At first, it was just some small organizations and some people's private activities. Later on, it gradually developed on a large scale. A few small local forces joined forces to completely occupy this place and set the rules."
"The Federation has completely wiped out the forces in the City of Darkness several times before. However, after each annihilation, the City of Darkness would rise again within a scant months."
Fang Heng nodded and said, "It's understandable."
Fana reminded softly, "Don't look down on just a few small forces. Players from major forces often gather information and trade in the City of Darkness. It's also very dangerous inside."
"Yes, I understand."
Entering the catacomb, several forks soon appeared in front of them.
Fana wasn't familiar with the interior of the City of Darkness. She took out the map she had just bought in the small wooden house and compared it to the map.
After walking for about ten minutes, Fang Heng heard the sound of water flowing in front of them.
At some point in time, the surroundings were enveloped in a dark fog.
Walking in the fog, Fang Heng realized that his perception had also decreased significantly, in addition to his visual range.
It was related to this unidentified fog.
As Fang Heng thought about it, a layer of red darkness appeared in his pupils.
With the help of the night vision ability of the vampire bloodline, he could see further.
There was an underground lake ahead.
There were a scant small boats floating on the lake.
Many people were gathered by the lakeside, looking over.
When Fang Heng got closer, one of them waved at them and said, "Hey! Are you going to the City of Darkness?"
Fana whispered to Fang Heng, "I came here once with my companions when I was on a mission, so I'm not very familiar with this place. The inner city of the City of Darkness can only be reached after crossing the river. Let's go in and take a look. We'll find a place to treat Gu Qingzhu first. We'll make plans after she wakes up."
"Alright."
Fang Heng nodded and followed Fana to the lakeside.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmThe group of people on the lakeshore seemed to be in cahoots.
"Looks like you guys have met an enemy, right?"
A short and skinny old man walked up to him immediately.
He saw Fana and Fang Heng's unfamiliar faces and noticed Gu Qingzhu on Fang Heng's back. He smiled and said, "You've come to the right place. I guarantee that your enemies won't be able to find you. The entrance fee is very cheap. Two polar blue clam shells."
Fana immediately threw a small bag filled with polar blue shells at the old man.
"We'll be staying here for a scant days. We need someone to accompany us the entire time."
"I'm happy to be of service to the two bosses."
The old man opened the bag and took a look. He immediately smiled with wrinkles all over his face. He called out, "Xiaoqi, they need a guide. Take them there. Be smart. You have to let the boss know that their money is worth it."
"Alright!"
On the lake, a dark-skinned young man on the kayak agreed. He drove the kayak closer to the people on the shore and waved at them, "Bosses, please board!"
Fang Heng carried Gu Qingzhu and jumped onto the kayak.
Xiaoqi didn't look very old. He smiled honestly and waited for Fang Heng and Fana to sit down before driving the kayak along the underground lake.
"Are the two bosses looking for a doctor? There's only one relatively large medical center in our City of Darkness. The others are all small individual clinics. To be honest, their standards are very ordinary. The bosses don't seem to be short of money. It's better to go to a large medical center."
"Yes. After we enter the city, take us to a medical center to settle down."
"Alright."
lightsΝοvel.cοm The kayak went deeper into the underground river, and the black fog around it became thicker and thicker.
Fang Heng's perception was suppressed again.
He tried to reach out his hand.
The strange black fog was slightly different from the outside.
The black fog seemed to be attracted by something and moved closer to the humans.
This caused their bodies to be enveloped in a faint layer of black mist.
Once they were far away, everyone seemed to be shrouded in a layer of black fog, and it was challenging to see their faces clearly.
