"Oh? So, this martial law is an order given by the Devil of Power himself?" The man in leather boots murmured with a and soft voice. If he didn't pay attention, the voice would be passed through the underground passage. The wind covered the past.
But who dare not listen carefully? The low-level demon secretly glanced at the succubus, facing his seemingly non-smiling eyes, indifferently like a maggot crawling on the ground, scaring him with excitement and trembling. Say: "This ... I don't know ... just heard ..."
"Hear?" The succubus repeated the word playfully, his voice filled with dissatisfaction.
"No, no, replies to adults, the rumors are likely to be true! A strange shape appeared in the Fire Lake of Purgatory before, that is, the Lake of Fire that suppresses the killing of the Demon King ... I speculate that there may be a problem with the seal of the Devil King Now! "For fear of the succubus being unhappy, the low-level demon quickly explained.
"Hehe." The succubus hummed inexplicably and stopped.
In front of it is a huge underground space, high enough to see the rock wall above the head, and the fluorescent plants and fluorescent moths covered with the rock wall dot this pure darkness, making this bottomless underground nest hole The walls are dotted with starlight.
They were standing in an underground valley, opposite to another underground valley, and between the two cliffs was a natural abyss. The crimson magma flowed from under their feet, as if the flowing river rushed to the deeper. Lake of Fire.
"Do you want to pass? The inspection on the opposite side is very strict. If it is found, I'm afraid ..." The lower demons carefully raised their heads to observe the look of the succubus.
The mysterious succubus was looking at a crystal in his hand, and the lower demons recognized it as a crystal of life. The original clean crystal had overflowed with smoke-like black, and there were fine cracks on the surface of the crystal.
It seems that the owner of this crystal is not in good condition. No wonder he is so anxious ...
But whose life crystal is this? What does it have to do with this succubus?
The succubus perceives the glance of prying eyes, tilts his head and glances at the lower demons behind him, and the succubus's innate charm oozes in the eyes like ruby, but is cold like ice: "Is there a more hidden path? "
The lower demons didn't dare to take a closer look, lowered their heads and pressed their hurried heartbeat, but still saw the succubus' naked long legs that weren't wrapped in leather pants, and hurriedly thought ten times before the life-threatening matter, saying cautiously: "There is indeed one."
Magma rushed past the gorge, the smile of the succubus' mouth standing on the cliff deepened, and the nightmare muttered generally: "That's great."
It seemed to have saved a small life, and the low-level devil was relieved. Since he was caught by this mysterious succubus an hour ago, forcing him to "buy" a wave of information, he has always been in fear. in. As a little-known intelligence businessman near Purgatory, he was usually cautious and rarely appeared on his own. He was very low-key, so this time he woke up and found a succubus sitting on the bay window opposite the bed, smiling. He was frightened when playing with the dagger in his hand.
He lived a long life, and he almost forgot the horror on the edge of life and death.
Now he just begged to happily cheer up the ghost-ridden guy and let him hurry into the lake of fire, anyway, he wasn't curious ... well, still a little curious. Who is this succubus? What's the purpose of coming to purgatory at this delicate moment? He must not be the devil of power or the deception of the devil, otherwise he would not need to be so circumspect.
Is it the old part of Killing the Demon King? Or ... it's simply the Devil who has been ridiculed ...
The lower demons didn't dare to think about it anymore. They lost 12 points of caution, took the succubus around the patrol defense line, crossed a magma river from a deep underground well, and finally came to the most severe area.
"Here it is. From here, you can reach the Huohu Lake through the warning zone, but the Huohu area has been completely blocked. I heard that a large-scale conflict broke out last night. Now Huohu has been banned from entering and leaving. I I can only take you here, and then ... "The lower demons rubbed their hands, accompanied their smiling faces, for fear that the succubus would turn his face on the spot.
The succubus stands outside the warning zone, and the passage in front of it is like an ant's lair. The demon patrolling in the cave may cause a chain reaction.
Qi Leren sighed in his heart. He never thought that he would encounter so many difficulties after entering the underground Ant City.
Had it not been for the resources and assistance given to him by the courthouse, he would not have been able to find the way, even if it took him ten days and a half months, let alone to find the den of the underground intelligence merchants, and he would be arrested with intimidation Lead the way.
But even with this efficiency, he doesn't have much time left.
There is less than an hour away from Huohu Lake, but this journey is full of vigilance. The Qile people who have not closed their eyes for more than a day have passed the most exhausted time, but now they are in good spirits and full of anxiety. He hid in his heart.
He was too afraid of being too late.
"Last night's conflict, elaborate." Succubus said lightly.
"This ... is suspected to be the head of the Devil's old ministry. Specifically ... I didn't come to work for you early in the morning. Detailed information will be provided when I go back to organize and present it to you!"
The succubus grinned, eyes showing a strong disdain and murderous intention: "Need to clean up?"
"No, no, no, I mean ... I still hear the story, I haven't verified it, I'm afraid it's inaccurate."
"tell me the story."
"Okay, Lord, about a month ago, the Huohu Lake began to have a strange phenomenon, and it subsided after an underground volcanic eruption. But two days ago, several great devil from the demon world appeared near Purgatory. The old part of the Demon Lord seems to be looking for something near the lake of fire. Since the destruction of the demon king, they have rarely gone out, and this time they have appeared a little suspicious. It is the two days that a small scale began to be near the lake of fire. It ’s common for the demon to disappear and be killed, and we did n’t get noticed until last night ... "
A complex expression mixed with fear and reverence appeared on the face of the lower demons, and he lowered his voice and said the secret with excitement: "Last night, someone saw a large demon corpse in the canyon downstream of the lake of fire. , Soaked in lava, flowing down the magma ... as many as ants, a thick piece of black. Then the entire purgatory was martialized, especially in the Huohu area, once you find random access, all will be killed! "
"Who did it?" The succubus asked.
"We don't know about it, but there is a clue. Last night, a demon heard near the lake of fire ... a dragon yin. At that time, the whole lake of fire lake was shaking, like an earthquake, and the rocks were all over, everywhere. It was collapsing, he hurried away, and saw nothing else. "
"Dragon Yin ..." the succubus whispered, thoughtfully.
I got the map of this area and let go of this unlucky demon intelligence businessman. Qi Leren took off the "costume" that he used to be undercover in the Killing Meeting, changed his clothes for action, and put his feet on this. Shuanghuali whistle studded with sequins and silver chain boots were thrown back into the props bar and hurried into the cave.
Last night's dragon groaning is probably the result of the awakening of the power of destruction by Ning Zhou in the form of a demon dragon. Was the battle last night related to Ning Zhou's final death? Qi Leren couldn't be sure. Now he just thinks that Ning Zhou is so close to him, he can't wait to fly to him.
Must catch up, will catch up, Qi Leren shook his fist, equipped the required skill cards, and touched the props heart hanging on his chest. He has to pass this martial law warning zone. In addition to the map and hidden technology, he must also observe in secret. If it is not possible ...
Even with the heart of a huge prophet, he had to forcibly cross the warning zone into the lake of fire.
He can't wait any longer.
Having made psychological preparations, Qi Leren took a deep breath and strode forward.
...
...
...
The front is already the last guard post. [Secret Observation] has also entered into cooling. Qi Le people's body is closely attached to the rock wall, and their ears listen to the sound of footsteps getting closer and closer. The patrolling demon held a torch, and the light of the fire illuminated the dark environment.
It seems to be just a few ordinary demons, otherwise no torches will be needed for lighting.
Beneath this cliff is a huge "lake". Sulfur is still floating above the lava, burning fiercely, making this cold ground like a scorching hell. Here is Lake of Fire. Ning Zhou is here.
Qi Leren closed his eyes and calculated the most likely way to break through.
The patrolling demons are in groups of two. It is difficult for him to kill two demons simultaneously and silently. Once he fails, the demons on the guard post nearby will rush up and cause a chain reaction.
With a loud bang, the patrolling demons stopped and whispered: "What's going on? Are you crazy again?"
"Who knows, be careful, don't lean on. Many people died yesterday."
The ground suddenly shook, as if an earthquake had erupted!
The loose stones on the rock wall fell down piece by piece, causing a commotion. Qi Leren, who was waiting for the opportunity, rushed out to take advantage of this opportunity. When the two patrolling demons were in a panic, they were resolved sharply and neatly. Gang, rushing towards the cliff ahead without looking back.
As if a window was opened on a huge rock wall, Qi Leren stood at this window and looked down.
The world he sees is a vast red, larger and more cruel than the scene in his dream. The air was so hot that it was sweaty and unable to breathe. With one mouth, it was as if a hot flame had been sucked into the lungs, igniting the body.
The height of the horror and the heat made the Qile man dizzy for a while, and here, imagining a glacier has become a difficult thing, because the glacier will quickly melt in his consciousness.
This hot soil made of hot magma seems to be placed in a high-pressure boiler. It is extremely sultry. Even if there is a distance of more than 100 meters from the magma under your feet, the heat is already like a red iron. On human skin.
This is not just hot, but a kind of painful torture, as long as standing here, it is like a puppet despairingly tortured by the scorching sun of August on the asphalt road.
Qi Leren stared blankly at his feet. This scarlet lake of fire was burning, and a few black rock islands were roasted ... No, it wasn't all rocks.
That one of them was a black, half-immersed shadow ...
This scene overlaps with his dying dream-the black dragon slowly sinks into the lake of fire and never exists again.
Is it too late? Is he already late?
Qi Le's legs were soft, and he fell to the ground with his knees blank.
There was another loud noise, the lava spraying out of the lake set off a raging wave on the lake of fire, and slapped the black dragon's body. The black dragon lying quietly in the lake of fire moved, and the sight of Qi Leren also moved.
The black dragon looked up and looked at the thick dome. The claws protruded from under the lava lake, slamming it on the lake of fire, and then roared. Suddenly, the entire underground lake fell into a crazy shake. The whole world seemed to be turned upside down. The magma gathered into a tsunami and washed away on all sides. Rocks around the rocks fell into the lava lake, and The rock wall above my head ...
The dome of the underground cave that can not see the top seems to be torn by the force of terror and suddenly drops huge stones. The rainstorm generally poured down, making the surface of this lake of fire more and more turbulent, and it became a continuous fire. The horrible of rain!
The black dragon stood in the lake of fire. The burning meteor fire and rain lit up this dark underground world. Its anger, sadness, despair, and countless negative emotions gathered on it, making it face the invisible Sky Roar-
The dome cracked, and the top of the underground cave was torn by a violent force into a huge wound, but a beam of light penetrated the earth and fell into purgatory.
It's light, not a flame burning on sulfur and lava.
Just after the light came, a familiar call crossed the distance of life and death and came to its ear:
"Ning Zhou !!!"
I don't know if it was because of this light or the sound that the angry black dragon suddenly quieted down. It stood quietly in the lake of fire and looked at the hole in the distant rock wall. The light was brighter than the sun.
Among the dazzling holy light, the veil-like silver and white light slowly stretched out, like a huge, blooming lotus flower. In that light, there was the illusion of heaven in the dusk, and countless hymns were in The sound here is washing the pain in the heart.
And in this light, the holy angel with white wings fell from the cliff, and he did not hesitate to fall from the heaven into the lake of fire of purgatory.
The holy and elegant white feathers flickered gently, and the peaceful and peaceful power extinguished the violent flames burning along the lake of fire along the way, and the suffocating horrible heat also dissipated together and turned into a land of light. Passing by, the reflection of heaven appeared on the lake of fire.
The holy angel fell on the black rock of the lake of fire, just in front of the dragon's eyes.
And the light falling from the ripped dome just fell on him.
The earth-shaking world has calmed down, the pouring rain of fire has calmed down, and the scarred black dragon has also calmed down.
They gazed at each other as if they were gazing at their own souls, one full of cracks on the verge of fragmentation, and one about to be pulled into the abyss of destruction by despair.
It was at this moment that they were all tenderly redeemed.
