Seeing the Blood Earl kneeling in front of him, Senia Oren just nodded helplessly.
In front of the Dark Lord, even high-level vampires are no different than cats and dogs. They can kill or control them with just a thought.
"Tell me, what important things happened to Dejia recently?" After pondering for a moment, the Queen of Lies suddenly said.
When he heard this question, Moriarty at the stern of the boat tensed up and listened attentively.
"Yes, Master!" Shelley still maintained the most standard and respectful posture of kneeling, lowering his head and kowtowing: "According to intelligence, the demon's offensive has been gradually slowing down recently, and there seems to be something new about this between the Alliance and the Holy Spirit Temple.
The specific content of the action is unknown, but it should be a big plan, and several of our clan’s elders have been summoned to discuss it.”
"Well...what else?"
The Demon Corps is showing signs of fatigue, and Dejia will naturally take advantage of the situation to counterattack. There is nothing unusual about this. Moreover, the Demon's defeat is exactly what the Demons like to see at this stage, so Senia Oren will not have any special reaction to this.
.
"Also... the first-level wanted criminal in the Holy Spirit Temple, the rebellious Count Claudia of the Wisteria family, was recently found to have appeared in Dejia, so both the Holy Spirit Temple and the Blood Tribe are stepping up their pursuit. This time
We were ordered to participate in the search and capture operations; besides..."
Without hesitation, Shelley tried her best to spit out everything she knew. However, the Queen of Lies seemed to have no interest in these "little things". After hearing it once, she told the Blood Count to shut up, and then ordered a group of vampires to rise into the sky and turn into skeletons.
The boat serves as a precursor and aerial reconnaissance.
But at the back, Moriarty was sitting on the stern of the boat, his expression gloomy.
He was indeed half happy and half worried when he unexpectedly learned the news about Claudia. What he was happy about was that he finally had a little bit of information about his base camp, although it was almost nonexistent; what he was worried about was naturally his "demon pet"
Safety situation.
It has to be said that Claudia's appearance in Dejia is really a risky move. Whether it is the Holy Spirit Temple, the vampires or other undead forces, they are all eager to capture it alive in order to get back the treasure "Withering Robe", or use it to
In this way, he can claim credit from the Holy Spirit Temple to obtain other rewards. Faced with the pursuit of Quan Dejia, even if Claudia's profession is a shadow assassin who is good at hiding, it will be difficult to last. What's more, in front of the powerful Ji Dao, a master
No matter how talented a level professional is, it is far from enough. This is a natural gap caused by a huge difference in essential strength, and it is almost impossible to make up for it with skills or external forces, unless it is someone like Moriarty who has an artifact with him.
Unfortunately, Shelley also led a team to search for Claudia, and knew nothing except some rough information. And Moriarty couldn't ask for this information in detail in front of someone, otherwise
It's just asking for trouble. Therefore, for the time being, Moriarty can only endure.
With the escort of several vampires, the voyage of the skeleton boat was usually unimpeded. In the next two days, the group encountered several waves of undead creatures such as vampires or ghosts. Without exception, they were all attacked by Shelley and others.
Let's get over it first.
Finally, at dusk on the seventh day after launching the boat, the bone boat docked on a slightly flatter black sandy ground on the bank of the Yellow Spring. Standing here and looking northwest upstream, one could see the river changing its direction.
The mighty flow state became winding and roaring, and began to enter a mountainous area with complex and rugged landforms and huge differences.
"Sir, what is this!?"
On a high convex hill at the far end of the black sand beach, there stands a castle made entirely of bones. Even if you look at it from a distance, an aura of chilling and death is coming towards your face, but there is an underlying feeling.
There was a certain sense of desolation and desolation. Several strong devils stared into the distance. They couldn't help but be stunned.
"This is Dresden, the exclusive territory of the former undead hero Kesri. The bone fort was Kesri's lair, but it gradually fell into disuse after the hero's death." Senia Oren briefly introduced.
"I see..." Another castle that originally belonged to a hero. No wonder it is still so powerful after five hundred years. The devils couldn't help but nod.
"Your Excellency, what is our next goal?" At this time, Moriarty suddenly interjected and asked.
"Next target?" The Queen of Lies glanced at Moriarty, then walked towards the Bone Fortress ahead: "Silent Hill, a forbidden place where even the undead dare not enter."
"silent Hill?"
When hearing this name, most of the powerful devils were stunned, as if they had never heard of it. Only Moriarty paused for a moment, and then followed Xenia Oren's footsteps.
I wonder if it is because this place is the hometown of undead heroes and the energy of death is particularly concentrated. When the group approached the Bone Castle, they found groups of wild skeleton warriors wandering around the outside of the castle. The total number may be hundreds.
"Shelley, clean up the Bone Fort."
Now that there are vampire servants, Moriarty no longer needs to do these small things of clearing the place. Immediately, several vampires, led by the Blood Earl, turned into a bloody wind, whistling towards the undead creatures in front.
Since all these skeleton warriors are naturally derived from the nearby area under the influence of the Bone Fortress, most of them are not only low in strength, but also lack intelligence and unified command. Therefore, even if the numerical ratio of the two sides reaches a disparity of five to one hundred, but
In a moment, all the skeletons were killed by vampires and dismantled into bone fragments.
"Let's go, we'll stay here tonight and enter Silent Hill early tomorrow morning."
After all the unnecessary debris was disposed of, the Queen of Lies led the devils into the Bone Castle.
Although more than five hundred years have passed ruthlessly, when Moriarty walked through the empty city gate and stepped onto the once terrifying and forbidding castle of death, he immediately felt that some kind of power that traveled through time and space shone from the void.
It was invested in him, which made his mind move. But when he tasted it carefully again, the power quietly disappeared and could no longer be found.
I don't know why, although no one comes here regularly to clean and tidy up, the entire bone fort is spotless and extremely clean. There is no trace of even insects and ants such as mice and spiders.
"Ta...ta...ta..."
Walking on the ground made of black marble and white delicate bone plates alternately inlaid, looking at the exquisite houses and buildings built with various bones on both sides of the street, Moriarty couldn't help but have the illusion of walking through the palace of death.
.Even though all the houses are empty, even though the Bone Castle has been excavated countless times by the undead, almost everything has been evacuated, and many buildings have even been damaged or even collapsed, but in Moriarty's view
Nowadays, this castle that originally belonged to the undead hero can still be called an outstanding work of art, a historical monument with a distinctive Degas mark.
When the group finally crossed the main road and arrived at the center of the castle, what appeared in front of them was a half-collapsed ruined wall covering an area of several thousand square meters. Looking inward from the collapsed part of the wall, there was a faint
You can see complex corridors and rooms of various sizes. Of course, like the surrounding houses, these dilapidated rooms are also empty and can be seen through at a glance.
"Casere was known as the 'Skeleton King' back then. At the peak of his military strength, he had an army of 100,000 skeletons, which was almost invincible. But now, look at it, only this residue is left, haha." For some reason, Sai
Nia Oren stared silently at the ruins of the inner castle in front of her for a long time, and suddenly chuckled, but with an inexplicable vicissitude.
"In the long river of time, even gods will perish one day, let alone mortal things." Behind him, Moriarty also nodded and couldn't help but whispered.
"No, Davidson. Gods can only sleep forever, but they will never perish. You should keep this in mind." However, when she heard Moriarty's words, the Queen of Lies turned around and shouted, as if she was worried about it.
The other party was very dissatisfied with what he said.
"Yes, Your Excellency, I will keep your teachings in mind." Moriarty had no intention of refuting this and just bowed to apologize.
"Your Excellency, since this is the castle of the undead hero, are there any treasures left?" Seeing Moriarty being reprimanded inexplicably, the other devils couldn't help but tighten their expressions, and someone stood up and changed the subject.
.
"Humph, even if there was one in the past, there will definitely not be any left now. Don't you think that five hundred years is not enough time to turn this bone castle upside down?" The Queen of Lies snorted coldly.
"yes."
Seeing that Xenia Oren was still in a bad mood, the strong devil said nothing.
So, the group of people settled down in the dilapidated inner castle. The Queen of Lies naturally occupied a still complete small hall in the core, while other devils lived in various places around. As for a few vampires, they still acted as sentinels.
, patrolling inside and outside the Bone Fortress at all times.
The night in Dejia is deep and rich, with a heart-stopping silence and dullness, as if everything has been stuffed into a huge coffin. Because the sky is always covered by thick lead clouds, the moonlight or starlight cannot be seen.
Not even a cent could be cast. Ordinary people would not be able to see their surroundings clearly at night like this without the help of torches.
Moriarty chose the southeastern location of the inner castle. It was an open air with almost no roof, but it was the furthest away from the Queen of Lies.
"Silent Hill...the legendary forbidden place of Dega is filled with huge and violent death forces and negative energy storms. Even the undead will disappear without a trace or directly explode and be destroyed. But Xenia Oren's target is actually
Is it this kind of place...could the Secret Garden really appear in such an extremely antagonistic environment?"
With his back against a remaining bone wall, Moriarty sat on the ground, thinking silently, but still couldn't figure it out.
If the Queen of Lies is still lying or covering up something this time, then what is its true purpose? And why did it bring several devils across the plane to come here without hesitation? What exactly does it want to do?
?
And just when his thoughts were surging but he had no solution, suddenly, Moriarty felt the bone wall against which he was leaning slightly shake, but immediately stopped. (To be continued, please search Piao Tian Literature, the novel will be better and updated faster!
