Chapter 56: Purgatory Reunion (8)

This news caught Qi Leren off guard. The strength of the illusionist was unfathomable. If it was a dusk town, Qi Leren didn't need to worry about his safety, but it was an underground ant city.
An underground world dominated by domain-level masters, where humans and demons coexist, and a large army of demons every month impacts this underground fortress, and there is a gap to the demon world in the depths of purgatory ...
It's too dangerous here, and the place where the illusionist disappeared was the palace of the dragon ant queen.
"What did the illusionist go to see the queen of dragon ants?" Qi Leren instinctively guessed that the queen of dragon ants might have detained the illusionist, but he did not know why the illusionist came to the underground ant city. Chen Baiqi did not tell him, Along the way, Qi Lerenji never asked about Ning Zhou.
"This ..." The contact person Celia hesitated, reasonably she could not disclose the task information at random. Although this Qile man came with the illusionist, he was not the court officer.
Hesitant Celia glanced at Ning Zhou again, and she remembered that she was the special envoy of the Holy See in the court.
Ning Zhou asked, "Did you contact the courthouse?"
"The letter of invitation was sent yesterday, but I'm afraid I won't receive a reply next week," Celia said.
"Tell us something, it won't help any longer," Ning Zhou said lightly.
"Okay, Mr. Ning Zhou. This is the case. The Prophet and the Dragon Ant Queen have a secret agreement that when the next Dragon Ant Queen succeeds, the Prophet will send someone to witness. The previous Prophet received the invitation from the Dragon Ant Queen and appointed him. Mr. Illusionist came to witness the handover ceremony. "Celia said, revealing a heavy expression," Before leaving, the illusionist agreed with us that he would contact us every day, but only after he entered the dragon queen's palace There is no news. "
"Did you not go to him?" Qi Leren asked wonderingly.
"We went, but we didn't have the armlet of the queen of dragon ants, nor the armband of the prophet, so we could not enter the palace." Celia said.
The Qile people meditated, and the palaces of the queen of dragon ants were not in the same place. Their palaces were grand, huge, unpredictable, and even horrible to ordinary people-because their palace was their last mausoleum.
They have been building magnificent mausoleums for themselves since the day of their ascension. The deeper and deeper they are, the larger they are. The huge manpower plus their own almost terrible power, the final tomb of each dragon ant queen is a huge one. The city was built from the day they ascended the throne, and it stopped working until the day they died.
The strange thing is that except for the first dragon ant queen, which can be regarded as longevity, each dragon ant queen has been in office for only twenty years. This dragon queen has been in office for twenty-two years. She was a wonderful young girl years ago, and now she is as old as an old man.
Her underground mausoleum has also been extremely large, and it can be called a magnificent underground city.
There, too, is her royal palace.
"But there is a clue ..." Celia gritted her teeth and said the information. "On the morning of the illusionist's departure to the palace, a gambler saw him in a demon-infested underground casino."
"Did you check?" Qi Leren asked.
"Yes, but the informers who went to verify did not return. Recently, the number of missing people in the entire underground city of Ant City is several times higher than before, which is very amazing." Celia said solemnly.
"Have you ever had a similar situation before?" Qi Leren asked again.
Celia was silent for a while, and seemed to be thinking about something. She sighed softly for a long time: "I haven't experienced it, but I have heard something ... This situation is very similar to the previous dragon ant more than 20 years ago During the period when the queen fell, the order in the entire underground ant city collapsed, and the conflict between the demon and the human population intensified. Although it is not the time of the demon's tide, the demon emerges from all corners, and neither humans nor demons can easily suffer disaster Fortunately ... it was a very horrible and chaotic time. Every time there was a transfer of power, it was a storm. You think, this is the death of a domain-level expert. In terms of the realm, it was a devastating blow. Although the situation of the dragon ant queen is special, she can inherit the realm in some way, but this inheritance is by no means easy. In the final analysis, our lives are too fragile. The ants that cling to the strong can't endure a shower of wind and wind. Even if the group is close to the existence of God, there will be a day of falling, let alone us Like fragile ordinary people do. "
Qi Leren's heart is heavy. During this short and long period of time, he has experienced too many feelings that could not be experienced in the peaceful era. Too many people are here in exile, hopelessness, but still struggling to survive. Whether it is life, emotion, or the connection between people, it is too fragile in this cruel and turbulent world. Here, what is cherished, destroyed, entrusted, destroyed, praised, fallen, beautiful things are broken one by one, but you can't even blame anyone.
Because really, really, too weak ... People who used to live in Maria ’s
dream
will eventually face this demon-ridden world, because the
God
who once sheltered them has already Fallen. How long can the country of twilight, now sheltered by the prophets, remain stable?
The old demon king has fallen, the nuns have fallen, and the dragon ant queen is about to fall. This group exists in the eyes of ordinary people almost like a "god", and it cannot be separated from the laws of this big world.
Qi Leren felt powerless. He didn't know if his hands could fight this cruel world. He wanted to protect a person, a person who was not recognized by the Holy See and would not compromise with demons, a wandering to hell, but longing for Looking at heaven. He is going to accompany this person and give him a final harbor.
But can he really do it? Qi Leren couldn't help doubting himself, even though he had opened the door to the semi-realm, but the road ahead was still so long. He is like a child who looks at the night sky. After the dark clouds are cleared, he sees the bright starlight and points out the direction for him, but that is the light of billions of years ago, which is billions of light away from him. He could see it, but he could not touch it.
Suddenly, a slight touch came from the tip of the finger, and Qi Leren froze, catching Ning Zhou's hand with his backhand.
The temperature of the life from another person soothed the restless soul, Qi Leren forgot to stand in front of him, and the contact person of the courthouse, Celia, stared straight at them and said to Ning Zhou, "Let ’s go to that Take a look at the underground casino. "
Ning Zhou shook his hand vigorously: "Yes."
"Also, please send another letter to the courthouse stating that I have found Ning Zhou. We will stay in the underground Ant City in the near future, and we will help you to find the illusionist." Qi Leren said Suddenly, Celia was looking at the hands they were holding in silence and couldn't help but want to pull them back, but Ning Zhou held it too tightly, and the slight struggle did not work at all.
Qi Leren took a peek at Ning Zhou. His cold face had no expression on his face, as if he didn't feel anything wrong with the contact person's sight. So he calmly, calmly, and pulled a homosexual hand.
On the contrary, Qi Leren seemed to be the young couple who secretly held hands, and the heart beat fast and his face turned red.
what happened? Isn't Ning Zhou super shy? I was blushing especially when I was sacrificing a witch!
This confusion puzzled Qi Le people all the way. On the way to the underground casino, Qi Le people were full of this problem. They were absent-minded. They talked a lot of times. After being stared at by Ning Zhou a few times, they slammed in guilty confusion. Many, aren't we holding hands well? "
It ’s not only bad, it ’s bad. In the underground ant city full of coldness and malice, two men walking hand in hand, the style of painting and the group of loners next to each other ca n’t wait to be separated from strangers by a few meters. Passers-by are completely different! But the surprised eyes of passers-by did not affect Ning Zhou in any way. He remained unmoved and insisted on holding hands.
Hearing the question from Qi Leren, Ning Zhou stopped and looked at him with a hint of shock in his expression.
Qi Leren was puzzled and looked at him stupidly.
They looked at me, I looked at you, and didn't speak.
"We ..." Ning Zhou said two words, and then paused. Qi Leren inexplicably thought his expression seemed a little nervous at the moment, "... Are you going to get married?"
Qi Leren :? ? ? !! !! !!
