The ancient magic emperors obviously did not know how to effectively suppress the eldest son, because until they were completely defeated and the eldest son was forced to sleep under the action of the safety device, they had not really found a way to kill this primordial creature. Therefore, in the eldest son
After their slumber, the suppressive measures they took were basically a matter of chance: each Magic Emperor chose a different form of seal in the hope that they would work.
The mountain barrier and the inanimate rock giant in the Dragon's Back Mountain Range have proven to be ineffective, and the giant tree of life is said to have withered long ago. Now it seems that the only remaining seal that remains in normal operation and seems to be powerful is the Sunset Volcano.
This volcano is pressing on the eldest son. The werewolf wizard king Sanur created a dragnet of lava rivers and magma pillars under the volcano, making them pierce around the eldest son's organs like criss-crossing steel nails. Deep underground here
The world is far more complicated than the Beinz underground. Deep rock cracks and magma lakes form a fragile but stable balance. As soon as the eldest son wakes up, it will touch the elemental flames on the Sunset Volcano, and then the entire area will collapse.
If it goes down, the eldest son will be pushed into the magma deep in the mantle.
However, Sanur did not try to kill the sleeping eldest son directly in this way, indicating that he knew that simply pushing into the lava was not enough to kill the monster, which would only cause it to wake up early. So Hao Ren guessed that Sunset
The suppressive measures under the volcano are just a delay. In the end, what the Magic Emperor is counting on are those "allies of stars" that are destined to never come.
After Hao Ren collected the tissue samples and signal frequencies from the holy coffin, he decided to go deep into the place where the eldest son's body was sleeping to see what was going on. Going further was already an area that ordinary people could never set foot in. Even with the amulet of the church, he could be attacked at any time.
The influence of the eldest son's dream. So this time he only brought Vivian, Ofra and Archbishop Auburn with him. The others stayed in the cave and were on standby.
Originally, Betsy wanted to follow her: her professional habits as a mercenary made her feel that she should go deeper, and her spiritual power was no less than that of high-level knights or monks. She could move freely in the deep caves. But Hao Ren felt that
There was no need to bring too many people, so she stayed with Lily and others.
The four people drilled through the large crack in the rock barrier into the secret room where one of the eldest sons, "sarcoma", was sleeping. Then they groped their way through the cave system extending in all directions. The environment in the deep caves was several times worse than outside, with unbearable high temperatures.
, the air is filled with the pungent smell of sulfur, and it is obviously very close to the magma column. Moreover, when walking here, you will "hear" some strange sounds from time to time, and some chaotic scenes always appear in your mind.
, this is the eldest son talking in his sleep, and those who step into it will be affected involuntarily.
"This guy seems to be more 'mature' than the one in the Dragon's Back Mountain Range, maybe he's close to 'adulthood'," Hao Ren made a judgment. "I remember that the eldest son in the Dragon's Back Mountain Range is not as mentally disturbed as this guy here. I only have it occasionally.
You'll hear it."
Ofra nodded: "People have long circulated rumors that the evil spirit of the Magic Emperor sleeps in the Sunset Volcano. The soldiers of the Gray Stone Fortress often hear strange sounds coming from deep underground in their dreams, but they did not expect this.
It was caused by the eldest son’s activities.”
After advancing for a long time, a huge underground rift appeared in front of the four of them.
This black rift extends to both sides to the end of the line of sight. The exit of the cave where Hao Ren and the others are located is in the middle of the rift. Huge tentacles can be seen stretching across the cliffs of the rift like bridges, and below the rift
You can see dark red magma flowing slowly, and there is even a magma waterfall hanging down from the sky a few hundred meters away from the cave exit, forming a fiery pillar of fire. The red light emitted by the magma illuminates this hellish underground.
World. Hao Ren looked up and could only see a hazy shadow: it was a roof made of more tentacles intertwined, holding up the rock layer above.
The air was filled with an unbearable smell, and every breath was so hot that it seemed to ignite the internal organs. Vivian summoned a burst of frost breath to barely resist the bad air around her. Then she released a small bat. The small bat
The bat circled around the opposite cliff several times, and when it flew back, its body was as wilted as dried meat.
Vivian patted the little bat into her body and frowned: "There is no road ahead. There is only one tentacle connecting the opposite slope like a bridge, but the road is very difficult to walk. And the tentacle is a bit thin.
."
"This is a place full of malice," Archbishop Auburn took a deep breath. The runes on his skin shone brightly, "The air is filled with hostility."
"There is no need to go deeper. This is roughly the core area." Hao Ren shook his head and released the data terminal. "How is the scan of the structural diagram?"
"Complete," the data terminal projected a complex scan of the underground world, showing an ellipsoid-shaped area intertwined with lava, rifts, tentacles, caves and weird large pieces of biological tissue, twisted and weird like a nightmare, "
We'd better go back and think of a solid course of action."
Hao Ren sighed: "Withdraw."
The expedition team returned to the limestone fortress and then teleported directly back to the royal capital.
They did not go to the Giant Tree of Life because the situation in the Giant Tree of Life was not complicated and was much easier to solve than the Sunset Volcano. Moreover, in one of Hao Ren's action plans, as long as the eldest son under the Sunset Volcano could be solved, Life
The cave under the giant tree is no problem at all.
Of course, Hao Ren still asked for some information from Ofra for reference. They were the structural diagrams that the monks of the Huiyao Sect had discovered under the giant tree of life in the past two months, as well as the historical documents about that giant tree. Regardless.
Use it if you don't need it...you can never have too much information anyway.
Several other accompanying ministers and bishops returned to their respective places. They each had their own situations and needed to report to their boss, while Ofra returned to Betsy's manor with Hao Ren and the others. The female marshal seemed a little bit
Worried: “How should I report this?”
"Let the king relax, I have a way," Hao Ren said very confidently, "In fact, I had several plans when we were in the cave... But any plan has certain risks, and the situation at Sunset Volcano is very serious.
It’s complicated, I have to prevent the magma from erupting.”
"Let's go back and do some research, and come back as soon as we have the results. Next time we come back, the problem of eldest sons on this planet should be completely solved," Lily also supported next to Hao Ren with an expert look on her face, "Anyway, the landlord is sure
There is a way, he has high technology."
"Are you leaving now?" Ofra glanced at the group of people, and finally her eyes fell on Betsy, "Is she staying?"
"She can't bear to part with the manor real estate here," Hao Ren shrugged, "But for us, traveling through time and space is not much different from going out to make soy sauce. Anyway, Betsy, I'll ask you to take care of me when we're not here.
Yes, you know this girl has a bit of a brain..."
Betsy glared at him before he finished speaking, and Lily next to her immediately raised her tail and let out a threatening sound of "Ulu Ulu" in her throat. Hao Ren looked at Lily dumbfounded: "I didn't tell you this time...
…”
Lily bared her teeth: "But I know you will use me as an example in your next sentence! Who doesn't know your mouth? A dog can't spit out ivory..."
The surroundings suddenly fell silent, and Vivian patted Lily on the shoulder: "You have vomited ivory."
Lily hasn't reacted yet: "Woof?"
Hao Ren pinched Lily's ears and looked at Ofra with a smile: "Also, I would like you to help me keep an eye on the evil cult. I heard that no clues about them have been found yet?"
"They are a loose cult, most likely made up of more than a dozen small gangs," Ofra shook her head. "I can only confirm that they are still operating in some areas, but they have never been able to catch anyone."
"Keep me alive after you find it," Hao Ren nodded. "I want to study the giant brain they summoned."
"Also remember to forward that letter to the Pope and the King," Vivian reminded at the side, "In it is the real reason we have about the death of the eldest son - the Magic Emperors have been blamed for ten thousand years.
, now you want to clean them up. Regardless of whether the big shots above believe it or not, the Magic Emperors are indeed innocent."
Ofra nodded slightly: "I understand."
Ofra cleverly said goodbye before Hao Ren and the others took the initiative to see off the guests, leaving Hao Ren and the others to say goodbye to Betsy. The mercenary girl was still a little reluctant to leave her friends at this time, after all, they had lived together for so long.
Time, even money-grubbing mercenaries have feelings: "You should come to see me often, even after you have settled the matter of the eldest son - and if there are any exciting and interesting things in the future, you should also bring me with you.
, I also want to go on an adventure in a spaceship! Also, bring me some potato chips and Coke when you come next time..."
Hao Ren saw that this girl rarely showed such an appearance, and he immediately felt very interesting: "If you are so reluctant, then you might as well come back to Earth with us."
Betsy jumped back more than a meter and hugged the doorpost without letting go: "Be careful and safe on the road, have a good trip, and don't send her away - I'd better be a wealthy person here."
Hao Ren: "..."
After everyone left Betsy's manor, Vivian asked: "Should we go back to Andre Castle directly from the Allamanda portal? Take a spaceship or teleport there?"
"No, there is one more thing," Hao Ren raised his head slightly and looked at the sky, "There is a more important ruin that I haven't seen yet." (To be continued, please search Piaotian Literature, the novel is better and updated faster!
