Less than two days after the hidden ship No. 1 left the Eastern Continent, Dehaka and his elite insect swarm troops followed the clues and tracked it here. After realizing that their hunting target might have sailed away on a ship, , Dehaka immediately summoned the King Insect, preparing to chase the ship along its route and screen each ship one by one.
However, it was too late to investigate at this moment. After successfully hiding on the material transport ship, No. 1 used the last ball of hellfire on his body to risk being torn apart by the power of space if the teleportation distance was too far. The risk in two forcibly teleported itself to the sea more than ten kilometers away from the coastline of the Aranok Desert.
Then, No. 1 spent two full days swimming from the sea to the coast of the Aranok Desert, and successfully arrived at the Kingdom of Lugaoin.
To him, the "Essence of the God of Evolution" is nothing more than the magical medicine that breaks the level cap in the eyes of high-level professionals. It is simply an irresistible temptation.
No. 1 hid in a town on the gravel wasteland, changed his identity again, purchased supplies and a map, and then set off alone towards the western region of the Aranok Desert.
Ever since the followers disguised as mimicry larvae infiltrated into the Church of Evolution stronghold somewhere in the Eastern Continent discovered his whereabouts, he no longer trusts other people.
For him, the Church of Evolution is no longer important. The God of Evolution has given him guidance. As long as he can find the essence left by the God of Evolution and successfully sublimate into an extraordinary life, then rebuilding the Church of Evolution will be a piece of cake. things.
...
Just when No. 1 was heading towards the mysterious sand dunes under the lure of Xel'Naga, far in the far north of the Western Continent, high in the Arreat Mountains, Xue Hua and Kane had already passed through the light shield opened by the King Insect. Fold saw not far away the main peak of Arreat, Mount Saint Arreat, which was completely surrounded by polar storms in the center.
This sacred mountain of the barbarians is surrounded by ice and snow storms that move rapidly like chainsaws. Any attempt to go directly up the mountain without going through the ancient passage will pay an absolutely heavy price.
Those terrifying ice storms were mixed with ice cones as tall as a person and thin ice flakes with sharp edges as sharp as knives, coupled with death ice winds that could cut through steel and extremely low temperatures that could almost freeze the air, even the capital ships in the swarm ——It would be impossible for the Heavy Artillery Governor or the Brood Lord to break in against these terrifying things.
And due to the World Stone in the heart of Mount Saint Arreat, the surrounding space of this entire area has been firmly sealed. Even teleportation spells will have no use here.
Since you can't force your way in, and there's no point in trying to take advantage, you can only follow other people's routines honestly.
Xue Hua let the King Insect land on the frozen tundra near Mount Saint Arreat and put him and Kane down, and the two began to search for the entrance to the "ancient passage" mentioned by Qualkek.
This entrance is the only way to the top of Mount Arreat.
It is built in the heart of the mountain, winding around the World Stone Fortress. The passage is guarded by the ancestral souls of the barbarians. Anyone who wants to challenge the three World Stone guardians on the top of the mountain needs to accept their orders first. test.
With the help of the Overwatch King Insect and the insect swarm, Xue Hua and Kane quickly found the entrance to the ancient passage hidden behind a giant rock.
In fact, it is not appropriate to say it is hidden, because the entrance to the ancient passage is not actually hidden.
The entrance is surrounded by a large group of crudely carved stone statues. These stone carvings are the work of ancient barbarian stonemasons in the village of Mirkelin not far from here.
In ancient times, the village of Mirkalin on the frozen tundra was the last supply ground for all barbarians who were determined to pass the ancestral trials and become true warriors. In order to encourage these warriors and increase the sanctity of the ancestral rituals, Mir
The stonemasons in Kailin Village carved these ancient stone sculptures of warriors.
The shapes of these stone carvings are all modeled after the figures and appearances of the new warriors who came down from the mountain after successfully passing the trial. Although the stonemasons in Mirkelin Village are not particularly skilled, the rough and heroic appearance of these stone carvings is quite different.
The entrance to the more ancient passage adds a wild and heavy atmosphere.
Later, Hell invaded, and the Will of the World tightened its jurisdiction over space, concentrating all the space gaps in the world that connected other worlds into the World Stone.
The World Stone grew out of the Holy Mountain of Arreat. The major mage schools in ancient times joined forces with the barbarian tribes to build huge fortresses surrounded by ancient passages specifically to guard and protect the World Stone.
The three barbarian ancestors have been designated by the will of the world as the guardians of the World Stone. Only warriors who pass their test can enter the World Stone Hall and be qualified to go to the second world.
Since then, the projection of the hell monster has been appearing in the Worldstone Fortress all the time.
At first, the barbarian warriors and emerging professionals in Mirkelin Village would clean up the fortress every once in a while, but later they discovered that not only were their cleanups ineffective, but the number of monster projections in the fortress was still there.
Increasing year by year.
Finally, it even spread to the frozen tundra below the mountain, causing the village of Milkelin to be constantly attacked by monster projections.
The villagers in the village couldn't bear the disturbance, so they moved out of Milkelin Village one after another. Slowly, the village was abandoned.
Today, a large number of village ruins can still be seen in the central area of the frozen tundra near the east, which was the former village of Milkelin.
However, Xue Hua and Kane did not come here to reminisce about the past. They walked through the stone sculptures, which were mostly broken and collapsed, and reached the entrance of the ancient passage.
"It seems that Barr has indeed entered one step ahead of us..."
Kane stretched out his hand and touched the entrance of the passage, the look on his face suddenly became serious.
"Why are you so sure?"
Xue Hua blinked and asked.
"Hell magic... Baal left us a small gift. If we rush in without removing this, we will be thrown into the space debris of a chaotic hell and be trapped there for several months.
of."
Kane stretched out a finger and gently touched the entrance of the cave, and a bright red spark suddenly exploded from the air at the entrance of the cave.
"Teleportation?"
"That is within the scope of Mount Arreat. We are still at the boundary of the World Stone's influence. The teleportation magic here will not fail."
"Okay, how about getting rid of this trouble?" Xue Hua shrugged, looking indifferent.
"After all, it's something arranged by the Demon God's clone. It still takes a little time..." Kane's face was a little nervous. He knew that they were pressed for time, but the trap set by Balbu was quite cunning. Even he would have to spend some time...
It will take some time to eliminate it.
Just when Kane was about to remove the spell, he heard Xue Hua suddenly say from behind: "Since it's a bit troublesome, let's forget about it and let's go straight in!"
After saying this, Xue Hua covered his body with a psychic exoskeleton skin, then pulled Kane involuntarily and rushed into the passage! (To be continued)
