Chapter 228: The Great Adventure in the Fantasy World: Lin Xiao's Legend of Breaking the Game
Lin Xiao stood alone in the vast, uninhabited desert. The wind roared like a demon, sweeping up the yellow sand and forming surging waves. These waves were overwhelming, as if they were going to swallow Lin Xiao up completely. Lin Xiao's eyes were almost unable to open due to the sandstorm. She squinted with difficulty, her face showing a painful and stubborn expression.
"What the hell is this place? How could I be so unlucky to end up in such a godforsaken place!" Lin Xiao cursed loudly while covering his mouth and nose tightly with his hands, trying to block the dust that was penetrating every pore.
The clothes she wore, which were originally quite neat, were now torn into tatters by the wind and sand, and her hair was even more messy like a chicken coop, with every strand of hair dancing wildly in the strong wind. Lin Xiao's lips were as dry as the earth after a long drought, and blood oozed out, but she seemed to be unaware of it, still staring at the mysterious ancient city looming in the distance.
"Damn it, how come there isn't even a road sign in this crappy place!" Lin Xiao panted heavily and took steps with difficulty, as if he had to use up all his strength with every step.
At this moment, a strange light suddenly flashed across the sky, and that light was like a bright meteor, instantly illuminating the entire dim desert. Then, a mysterious and ethereal voice sounded in Lin Xiao's mind, and that voice seemed to come from the distant sky, and it seemed to whisper in her ear.
"Lin Xiao, your fate changes here. The ancient city ahead hides huge secrets and dangers. Will you choose to move forward or retreat?"
Lin Xiao's eyes widened, with a look of shock and disbelief on his face. "What? A twist of fate? What the hell is this! How could I be so unlucky to encounter such a rotten thing!"
She hesitated for a moment, and a hint of determination flashed in her eyes. "Back off? Humph, that's not my style! No matter what monsters are ahead, I, Lin Xiao, am not afraid!"
Lin Xiao took a deep breath and walked towards the mysterious ancient city with firm steps. The strong wind was still raging, and the sand kept whipping her body, leaving tiny scars. But Lin Xiao seemed to feel no pain. She had only one thought in her mind, that is, she must uncover the secret of this ancient city.
When she finally approached the ancient city, she found that it was far more majestic and mysterious than she had imagined. The tall city walls towered into the sky, as if they were an insurmountable natural barrier. The city gates were tightly closed, and they were inlaid with various strange gems and runes, emitting a mysterious light.
"How do I get in? Do I have to fly in?" Lin Xiao frowned and thought to himself.
Just when she was at a loss, she suddenly heard a sinister laugh coming from behind her. The laugh seemed to come from the depths of hell, making her hair stand on end.
Lin Xiao turned around suddenly and saw a dark figure slowly emerging from the sand and dust. The dark figure was tall and shrouded in a layer of black mist, making it impossible to see his face clearly.
"Who are you?" Lin Xiao asked vigilantly, his hands unconsciously grasping the sword at his waist, his knuckles turning white from the force.
The shadow sneered, his voice low and hoarse. "Who am I? You will soon find out. This ancient city is not something you can just enter casually."
Lin Xiao glared at him and shouted, "Hmph, stop trying to scare me! I have to go in today!"
As she spoke, she flashed and rushed towards the city gate like a bolt of lightning.
Seeing this, the black shadow attacked instantly. He waved his sleeves, and a powerful force rushed towards Lin Xiao like a surging wave.
Lin Xiao dodged sideways and swung the sword in his hand, and a cold light flashed.
"Wow, I didn't expect you to have such skills." said the black shadow with a hint of surprise in his tone.
Lin Xiao gritted his teeth and responded: "What do you want? Don't think I'm afraid of you!"
At this moment, the gate of the ancient city slowly opened, and a mysterious light shone out from inside. The light was like warm sunshine, instantly dispelling the darkness and coldness around.
Lin Xiao looked at the light, his heart full of doubts and expectations. "What does this mean? Is it a trap or an opportunity?"
She hesitated for a moment, but finally walked into the city gate with firm steps.
As soon as he entered the city, Lin Xiao was stunned by the scene in front of him. The streets in the city were spacious and clean, and the buildings on both sides were tall and magnificent, but there was no one in sight, and the whole city was filled with an eerie silence.
"What is going on? Where have all the people gone?" Lin Xiao muttered to himself as he walked forward cautiously.
Suddenly, a voice sounded in her ears. "Welcome to the Fantasy Ancient City, Lin Xiao. Your adventure has just begun..."
