The Kingdom of the Dead was once a silver-white land built on bone sand.
But now, it has changed beyond recognition...
The raging evil spirit turned every grain of white sand on this land black, and the sky became gloomy and gloomy.
This place... seems to have become the border of "chaos and scorched earth", waiting to be "assimilated" and "engulfed"...
buzz buzz
On the scorched earth, a set of magic circle runes were buzzing.
Next to the formation, stood a strange man wearing a black robe and a gorgeous cape, with pure white skin and two pupils in each eye.
His name... is Taliom, one of the two current popes of the Phantom Demon Church (there were originally three, but after the death of Soul Reaver, only Taliom and Samodil remained).
scold
After the buzzer continued for a while, along with the sound of energy surging, three figures appeared in the formation.
"Huh... we finally succeeded." When he saw the three people, Taliom let out a long breath and shook his body unconsciously, as if he was about to lose all his strength.
"Taliom?" After the players gained the ability to move, Xiaoling recognized this guy immediately and called out his name.
"Ah..." Taliom also raised his eyes and looked at Ruoyu, Xiaoling and Huajian, "It's been a long time... the 'Three Knights of the Undead'."
"Where is this?" Ruoyu observed the situation around him and then asked, "Did you summon us here?"
"You don't recognize it..." Taliom smiled bitterly, "Ha... this is the Kingdom of the Dead to which you swore allegiance."
"What?" Huajian asked in shock, "This is..." She did not finish her words, but looked around at the surrounding scene and asked directly, "What happened during this time?"
"It's a long story..." Taliom said, "It's not suitable to stay here for a long time. Please follow me to see the Spirit King first. She will explain it to you when you get there."
"Wait a minute." At this time, Xiao Ling continued vigilantly, "When did your Phantom Demon Church... become a subordinate of the Spirit King?"
"Haha..." Taliom smiled sinisterly, "Not a subordinate, but an ally..." He paused and glanced at the sky in the distance, "You don't know something... about 'that matter'
After what happened, there are almost no forces in the main universe that can fight alone. Even if we just 'survive', we need multiple alliances to do it."
At this point, he withdrew his gaze, sighed softly, and then said: "Anyway, you just follow me... I must have attracted their attention by activating the magic circle just now, and it won't take long for them to be there."
The 'Redundant Soldiers' are here for inspection, and it will be troublesome if they are held back by those guys..."
The players only understood part of Taliom's words, and there were many questions that arose. To solve these problems, they could only take one step at a time.
So, Ruoyu and the other three followed Taliom into action. The four of them entered a magical dimensional passage through a hidden entrance, and gradually walked into the underground of the Kingdom of the Dead...
…………
The words should be divided into two parts, let’s talk about Feng Bujue and their side.
These few people who were in the real chaotic scorched earth also followed Lao Wang and Brother Zun to a place similar to an underground cave.
All the barriers here are made of rocks that emit high temperatures. Except that there is no smoke, the feeling after entering is similar to that of a sauna.
Brother Jue and Xiao Tan had not gone far when they were already sweating profusely and were so hot that they almost stuck out their tongues.
However, Xu Huaishang didn't seem to be hot at all. Judging from her calm look, with not even a drop of sweat on her face, she must have some way to escape the heat.
"I said... Xiaoshang, why did you..." Feng Bujue asked this, but instead of continuing, he inexplicably stopped mid-sentence.
"Why what?" Xu Huaishang asked.
"You know...it's..." Feng Bujue said, holding the wall with one hand, making a very charming gesture, and then started a "Magic Mike"-style performance. He was pulling his collar while
Sticking out his tongue, he slowly stroked the sweat beads off his skin with his hands.
"Hahahaha..." Xu Huaishang burst out laughing at that time.
Xiao Tan twitched the corners of his mouth and complained with empty eyes: "Are you going to make a living out of this craft if you don't write books anymore..."
"Unless 'academic lap dances' become popular in the future, I'm afraid I won't be able to make a living from this..." Feng Bujue said, stopping his very amateurish striptease twist, and said to Xu Huaishang,
"But do you understand what I mean?"
"Ha..." Xu Huaishang slowly suppressed his smile and continued, "I probably understand..." She paused and explained, "Actually, this is not complicated, it is just an advanced method of using energy.
One...is similar to the technical principle I used when dealing with [Sashimi]'s 'audio detection', of course...'isolation temperature' is much easier and less laborious than 'resonance'."
They had communicated before about what happened in Linlu Town, so when she said this now, Brother Jue and Xiaotan basically understood.
"Oh, but then again, no matter how hot I am... I won't..." Xu Huaishang said, holding on to the wall with one hand, but she didn't do what Brother Jue did, she just
He stuck out his tongue and made a face.
"Tch~ I just want to liven up the atmosphere." Feng Bujue shrugged and continued.
"Next time you want to use a similar method to liven up the atmosphere, can you say hello to me first..." Unexpectedly, King Dienyao, who was walking in front of them, complained, "Give me a few seconds to put myself out first..."
Goug out his eyes."
"You're so annoyed. Are you in the rebellious stage?" Brother Jue retorted without showing any signs of weakness. "Are you feeling lonely and confused, and are you confused and afraid that some parts of your body are starting to grow hair?"
Lao Wang didn't quarrel with Brother Jue because he knew he was no match, so he just continued to move forward silently and raised his middle finger towards Brother Jue.
Although players cannot do this kind of action with each other, NPCs do not have such restrictions. In a sense, this is considered a kind of preferential treatment...
Everyone walked for a few more minutes and went deeper into the underground cave. After passing through several winding and dangerous paths where magma could be seen, a huge space with a very high dome finally appeared.
My eyes suddenly became clear.
"It's us, Feng Bujue and the others have arrived." After entering that space, King Dian Tuo shouted loudly.
His words echoed around the huge empty cave, and then there was a heavy sound of rocks rubbing against each other.
What appeared together with that sound was a distortion of space...
A few seconds later, in an empty space, a large piece of something that looked like optical camouflage "opened". Until the "invisible stone door" was pushed open by a third, the small
Only then did Tan Tan and Xu Huaishang realize that there was another "entrance" there (Jue Ge discovered it from a data perspective as soon as he arrived here); if someone hadn't opened it from the inside, it would have been impossible to see it from any angle.
of Shimen.
"I've been waiting for you to come..." Billy's voice sounded before the door was fully opened.
However... his voice sounded strange, as if he was talking in a tank, a bit muffled.
The players immediately looked there and saw... a giant armored doll about two and a half meters tall, pushing open the stone door and walking out, and Billy's voice came from the doll's "
"from the body".
When the armored doll completely walked out of the stone door, Brother Jue and the others took another closer look and suddenly discovered... that on the left rib of the doll, there was a large, incomplete hole that penetrated from front to back; the irregular hole at the edge of the hole
The shape looks like it was "punched through" by something.
At this moment, both sides of the gap were sealed by glass, and inside the glass... was actually Billy's head.
"Hey, hey...what's going on?" Brother Jue said immediately, "You and your brother have merged?"
Of course Feng Bujue recognized that the armored doll was Billy's younger brother Bill.
Before Brother Jue finished speaking, Bill's square "display face" had a emoji like: (.
"Ha..." Billy smiled bitterly when he heard this, "You can say that..." He added, "To sum it up in two sentences... In a battle, I lost everything except my head.
Limbs, and my brother has lost his power source and the ability to speak." He paused again, "Well... thinking on the bright side, his 'kaomoji' functions are much richer now."
