Located deep in the mountains, the terrain of the abyss is extremely complex. If you just walk on land, it is impossible to find the dragon's nest.
Lilina came to the dragon's lair and looked around. She seemed to be curious about the dragon's treasure, and there was always a look of expectation in her eyes.
The fire dragon did not disappoint Lilina. After entering the dragon's nest, her eyes were suddenly illuminated by light. Instead of the oppressive crimson color of the outside world, she could see a dazzling array of treasures.
Lilina was also a girl, and she couldn't take her eyes off these glittering little things. She couldn't help but pick up a strangely colored stone from among them, which immediately attracted the attention of the fire dragon.
The fire dragon stared at Lilina with a pair of vertical pupils. If his life was not in the hands of the true ancestor of the blood clan, he would desperately fight this vampire who touched his treasure.
But now it doesn't have the courage, it can't fight the vampire, and if it dares to take action, it is seeking death.
In this way, the fire dragon endured the greed in his heart and could only look away. This undoubtedly made Lilina feel relieved. She did not expect that the dragon's greed would even exceed its life.
Gold is only the lowest-end item among the dragon's treasures. What really illuminates the entire dragon's nest are the various strange gems in the gold, and on top of the pile of gems and gold is a huge skeleton.
It was not a dragon's skeleton. Esther could still tell this, but if he wanted to elaborate on the species of the skeleton, Esther didn't know it either.
"Where are the vampires you mentioned?" Esther doesn't care about these worthless things. Any wealth is meaningless in the abyss. There is no finance and no prices here. The wealth in your hands is just a pile of nothing.
Stones, sometimes even worse than stones.
The fire dragon collects these things, it's just a hobby.
He will follow the fire dragon to its lair, naturally not to covet the fire dragon's treasure, but to find the figure of the vampire in the abyss. Esther believes that the fire dragon will not lie to him, but now he has arrived at the dragon's lair, but he has not seen the shadow.
, Esther's expression also became unkind.
Life is in the hands of others. Even if the fire dragon has its own arrogance and rebelliousness, it does not want to die easily. The longer it lives, the more it cherishes life. He crawled under his treasure, stretched out his dragon claws and began to move it.
The piles of gold and gems rolled like an avalanche under the movement of the fire dragon. Esther did not stand on the ground because he would be overwhelmed by these treasures.
Soon, a creature crawled out from the treasure mountain.
Not human, not even a vampire.
But a mindless monster.
There is not a single hair on its wrinkled skin, and its body is even thinner. Its ugly appearance may be the only thing that makes it scary.
"Wow, it's so ugly!" Lilina couldn't help but say.
Esther's face suddenly turned ugly, not because of what Lilina said, but because he felt very disappointed after seeing this creature.
Inferior species!
It's not a vampire at all, it's just a mindless ghoul, existing like cannon fodder in the vampire army!
But then I thought about it, since there are ghouls, it proves the existence of the vampire clan. The Cappadocia clan must have been active in this abyss, otherwise there would be no such creatures as ghouls.
The appearance of ghouls is the best proof.
Thinking of this, Esther's mood was not that bad.
He asked casually: "Why is there a ghoul in your dragon's nest?"
The fire dragon doesn't understand the ecology of the vampires, and can't tell the difference between ghouls and ordinary vampires.
Just like the difference between worker ants and soldier ants in an ant colony, whoever is not a scholar would be interested in ants. Even if they are caught for fun, there is no need to distinguish the division of labor in the ant colony.
The same is true for the fire dragon. Whether it is a ghoul or an ordinary vampire, there is no difference in its eyes. They are all creatures that can be crushed to death with one finger.
"It fell in from outside the mountains. I ignored it and it didn't dare to approach me." The fire dragon's rich voice replied.
The fire dragon ignored an ant-like creature wandering around its dragon's nest because it didn't care at all.
"From outside the mountains? Where." Esther continued to ask.
"I don't..." Fire Dragon was about to reply that he didn't know anything, but when he saw Esther's face turn cold, he had to change his words quickly.
"Probably a few years ago, or decades ago, it fell in from an outside city during a cycle change in the abyss." The fire dragon couldn't remember when it discovered such a creature around its lair.
.
A few years or a few decades does not have much reference value for dragons with a weak sense of time.
However, time is not the key point, the cyclic change in the fire dragon's mouth is the key point. Esther could clearly hear that the ghoul only fell into the fire dragon's lair when the cycle changed.
In other words, the Cappadocia clan may be active in a city in this abyss. But which city it is, Esther will need time to find it.
But now, at least the general direction is correct.
"How long until the next cycle?" Esther asked.
It is impractical to cross the entire abyss to find the city. Esther doesn't know how vast the abyss is. If he goes out of the city to search one by one, he doesn't know whether he will find the Year of the Monkey, the Horse and the Moon.
The best way is to use the rules of the abyss cycle, constantly contact other abyss cities within the rules, and find a way to find the Cappadocia clan.
And now, the Fire Dragon's Lair has the honor of becoming Ested's foothold in the two-hundred-layer abyss.
The fire dragon snorted, and the hot breath protruded from its nostrils. It was dissatisfied, but it did not dare to refute Esther's choice.
Its own life is in someone's hands, what can it do if it is dissatisfied?
In the final analysis, it is still too weak. Strength is supreme in the abyss. As long as you have the ability, you can enslave code-level demons.
Thousands of years have passed, and the vampire's bad reputation still spreads in the abyss.
The battle of the Fall is not only a sensation in this world, it is also spread in the abyss and among the alien races in the abyss.
Ested is the true ancestor of the blood race who has returned to the abyss in the past thousand years. His appearance will inevitably have an impact on the abyss aliens, but it is not yet clear whether this impact is good or bad.
The fire dragon's eyes were full of scruples about Esther. It was not a weak dragon species. On the contrary, in countless abyss cities, no one dared to offend its territory.
It had never thought before that it would be effortlessly defeated by a vampire. It was only today that he fully realized the horror of the vampires back then.
