Chapter 216: Life Aura
As Pierce walked into the conspicuous town in this dead land, the scenery seemed to become even more dull.
The surroundings were filled with a desolate feeling. One could even vaguely hear a few crow-like cries that echoed in the town like a deep abyss.
However, this did not scare the group. As they slowly stepped in, the dried yellow leaves on the marble street were crushed into dust, and creaking sounds came from under their feet.
In the sky, a bright crescent moon was emitting its own light. It was bright and clear, but in this town, it seemed to not feel this so-called holy feeling. The moonlight that shone on the town seemed to be distorted, and everything around it became distorted as well,
This town was especially strange, far more desolate than other towns. However, no one present showed any emotion. After all, when they stepped into this world, they had already realized that this trip would definitely not be like a serious adventure. This was a strange world that invaded the Tower Defense World. They could tell that the main theme of this world was strangeness.
Pierce frowned as he looked around. The others were also searching for something. Their goal this time was to obtain the reward, which was Pierce’s Tower Defense reward.
The flickering candle lights in the houses shone through the window and onto the street. It mixed with the pure white moonlight in the sky, so Pierce did not need to use divine power to maintain the lantern.
Although the amount used to maintain the lantern was nothing to Pierce, he still withdrew his divine power for more convenience.
Right now, he realized that the towns they passed by were like this as well. Every town had these candle-like things, but strangely, there would be no one in the entire town.
Moreover, there would be a monster above the church tower. If there was not any change, Pierce and the others guessed that the target this time was also in the center of this town which was the church.
At this moment, Frost seemed to have discovered something and strolled into a building.
She pushed open the rotten wooden door. With a creaking sound, a lot of dust fell from the door, as if it had not been cleaned for years.
Pierce focused. He also felt something in the house, but he was not sure.
That thing seemed to have suddenly appeared. The previous moment, there was no aura, but in just an instant, something suddenly appeared in that house.
This strange phenomenon instantly attracted everyone’s attention. Frost walked in first and checked.
The rotten wooden door was slowly pushed open. As she stepped into the room, the others slowly followed.
After entering the room, everyone’s gazes were strange as they sized it up.
In a sense, this was the first time they had stepped into a building of the dark side. The previous time, they had only patrolled the surroundings of the church and did not enter any buildings.
The objects in the house were no different from those in the medieval times, looking like they had a history to them.
At this moment, in the live-stream in the real world, everyone saw this scene through Pierce’s perspective. These audiences instantly erupted. After all, they had never seen such a scene.
In their minds, the Tower Defense World that appeared every few decades was only limited to the invasions where they defended against the monsters. When had they ever seen the outside world? Pierce’s live stream broadened their horizons.
Everyone watched with interest and instantly forgot about the griffin that had accompanied them for almost a few months. They were also not worried about Pierce being in danger and causing Country M to disappear.
They had already witnessed the strength of the two guards beside him. Many people on the Internet had come to a conclusion that these two guards were almost at the peak of this world.
The contestant list of Country M included Frost as well. It was as if the Tower Defense world had been updated after this invasion. Three people instantly appeared in Pierce’s camp.
This was a good thing. He was no longer fighting alone.
Pierce did not panic at all. As they entered the room, they saw the swaying candlelight.
The candle flames seemed to be fixed there. Time did not cause it to die, or rather, it was as if time was still there. After a simple observation, Pierce found that these candles seemed to never exhaust. He suddenly thought of bringing all the candles back. This would save him a sum of money that he used for lamps.
After carefully studying the room, that life aura was nowhere to be seen. It seemed like the aura just now was their imagination, but they knew that it was not an illusion.
