Chapter 926: Things from the Deep Underground

"At that time, the subordinates who tried their best to block His Majesty Roy, the energy barrier could no longer be condensed. They had to watch the ax blade whizzing towards him with the cold light flashing on his white armor that was soaked in bright red. It stirred up a series of dazzling sparks, as biting as the scythe of death.”

The white knight's calm voice gradually became unstable.

"In the end, the ax blade roared and successfully tore apart the subordinate's armor. The powerful force penetrated the subordinate's flesh and blood, cutting tendons and bones, until the subordinate was knocked away."

"To this day, I still clearly remember my opponent's ferocious laughing face, as well as His Majesty Roy's bloodshot eyes and powerless outstretched hand."

"Then, the subordinates who fell heavily to the ground saw darkness in front of them, and almost lost all consciousness. Even the fierce fighting sounds mixed with wails and laughter around them were gradually fading away, as if another layer had dropped. The door panels on the first floor are average.”

There was a trace of weakness in the white knight's voice as he continued to describe the past thousands of years ago.

"I don't know how long it took, but just when I felt that the last door was about to close and everything was about to completely merge into nothingness, a sudden loud noise suddenly woke me up from the darkness."

"My subordinate tried his best to raise his heavy eyelids and found that the surrounding area was like an erupting volcanic crater. Lava flows were continuously pouring out from the ground, slowly and fatally."

"The slowly surging magma was like a squirming red python. It soon covered the palace garden, the broken fountain, the broken sword blade, and the corpses of the soldiers, until it flowed to the In front of my subordinates.”

"The close proximity of the heat distorts the air, and the extreme high temperature rushing towards you seems to melt everything, just like a red giant python opening its bloody mouth, which is still fresh in the memory of my subordinates."

"But the subordinates who were seriously injured and on the verge of death were unable to move their bodies at all, and had no choice but to accept the judgment of fate."

At this point, the white knight slowly took a deep breath, obviously adjusting his emotions.

Taking advantage of this moment, Lei Xiao nodded thoughtfully.

When he went to the ruins of the Royal Capital of Loren for the second time, Lei Xiao had already learned about it through the narration of Fang Hai's ancestor, Lao Xiaoer.

At that time, the isolated city of Loren Royal Capital was forced to use a special magic conversion secret method from the dwarves. Only then did it use the absolute defensive barrier covering the city to withstand the iron hooves of the Alliance Army for half a year. Long.

The core of this special magic conversion secret method is to use the power of violent lava surging deep underground to obtain a steady supply of energy.

However, although this secret conversion method is very effective, it has a major flaw, that is, it is extremely unstable.

In the end, the cunning opponent took aim at this instability and input a large amount of magic power into the lava zone deep underground, causing the magic power conversion barrier to suddenly overload.

This then triggered a huge explosion, which directly reduced the city wall and a quarter of the city to ruins.

It was precisely because of this that the opponent's army was able to march straight in and attack the capital of Loren without any hindrance.

Thinking of this in his mind, Lei Xiao nodded slightly, and then asked: "White Knight, so the explosion you saw was the aftermath of the initial shocking explosion, right?"

"That's right, Lord Lord, my subordinates instinctively felt at that time that the lava was filled with disorderly and violent power, and it was definitely not the product of magic."

The white knight nodded and responded: "But even in that shocking explosion, no magma flowed out directly. After all, the depths of the ground are too far away from the ground. It was only the magic storm formed by the explosion that surged out, and then the magma flowed out directly. The city was instantly reduced to rubble.”

"It's true. An explosion deep underground will never directly affect the surface. If it does, let alone a city, I'm afraid this vast land will no longer exist."

Jiang Li nodded thoughtfully and agreed: "The distance between the lava layer and the surface is like an unreachable sky or an abyss under the sea. Even a fifth-level earth magician can't reach the distance between them." The hard barrier that was broken through is impossible to reach directly. ”

"It is said that only the sixth-order earth element great magisters and the dwarves who are good at digging can reach the depths of the lava."

Jiang Li frowned slightly and said doubtfully: "And there are no volcanoes in King Loren's capital. It stands to reason that the magma deep underground will never flow out of the surface."

"You are right, but I was already on my deathbed at that time. I almost stopped thinking and had no energy to think about it until I saw that unforgettable scene."

The white knight nodded to Jiang Li, then turned to Lei Xiao again, and continued to describe the scene at that time.

"Lord, at the moment when the rolling hot magma was about to come into contact with my subordinates, my subordinates were surprised to find that the flow of hot lava that was originally crimson turned into a deep blue in an instant, and began to crystallize rapidly. , until a floating round dark blue object the size of a head is formed.”

"It seemed to be a kind of creature, but it didn't have any facial features. It looked like an eyeball, or an octopus monster that had lost its tentacles. The dark blue energy flow in it was constantly surging, reflecting the outline of an organ. , it’s amazing.”

"The unknown creature had just condensed into a solid body, and it looked at the subordinate curiously, and the subordinate immediately felt a bone-chilling coldness, as if the only blood remaining in the body had solidified in an instant."


"At this point, my subordinates realized that the magma that was constantly flowing out was definitely not due to the explosion, but the explosion disturbed the unknown creatures deep underground, causing the other party to come out to check."

At this point, the white knight's voice began to tremble uncontrollably.

"To be honest with you Lord, the feeling of being watched by a strange creature is extremely terrifying. It's like facing an indescribable bottomless abyss, as if the endless fall is about to hit you."

"The other party just stood there and did nothing, but the subordinate was already shocked to the point of being unable to control himself. Even though the subordinate only had one breath left at that time and had already faced everything calmly, the uncontrollable fear could not be stopped. came to mind.”

The white knight paused for a while, and then slowly added: "Lord, although I cannot fully describe in words all the feelings I felt at that time, what is certain is that it was a fear beyond death."< br>


"Beyond the fear of death?"

After hearing what the white knight said, Lei Xiao pondered and nodded: "I didn't expect that there is such a terrifying thing deep under our feet."

While feeling surprised in his heart, Lei Xiao frowned tightly.

It is not difficult to see from the description of the white knight that this unknown creature is obviously able to integrate with the magma, and is even a part of the magma itself.

This alone is enough to prove that it is anything but ordinary.

The most important thing is that the White Knight is a country-level fifth-level strongman who is not afraid of life and death. He can still make him feel the bone-chilling coldness of transcending death.

"Is it like facing an indescribable endless abyss?"

"It seems that this strange world full of mysteries is not what it seems on the surface. Perhaps the real chaos has already been hidden deep in the depths."

Lei Xiao slowly took a deep breath, and a hint of curiosity appeared on his face.

Although I don't know what the mysterious creature is, what is certain is that its strength must be extremely amazing, which makes even strong men like the White Knight fear it.

"The head is the size of an eyeball, and it looks like an octopus that has lost all its tentacles... It's really an imaginative description."

"Is this a divine creation, part of a god, or simply a god itself?"

"But if it has something to do with gods, it stands to reason that you shouldn't be interested in the White Knight."

"After all, before the blank era, the gods had a honeymoon period with all races and lived together in harmony for a long time."

"But nothing is absolute. Maybe everything is really related to the gods, and there may be some reason for it."

"Besides, is there only one of these things, or is it a group? Does it only exist on the continent where I am, or does it exist in every corner of the world? Is there some potential connection with the coming of us lords? ?”

"This brings us back to the old question, what is the significance of the coming of us lords?"

Lei Xiao shook his head helplessly and brought his thoughts back to reality.

At this stage, although everything is still in the clouds and lacks the necessary clues to explore the truth, what can be confirmed is this.

Since this unknown creature from the depths of the earth can easily come to the surface, it has always been at peace with all races.

Even when the Alliance caused an explosion in the lava layer, there was no record of revenge, which proved that they were not the aggressive type.

This means that as long as you don't take the initiative to provoke them, at least there is no threat to the territory.

Thinking of this in his mind, Lei Xiao pondered for a moment, and then asked the white knight: "So, the dark blue crystal on your body, or the reason why you can always be active today, is because of this unknown thing, right? ?”

"Yes, Lord, the dark blue crystal that has been integrated with the subordinates comes from part of the unknown creature."

The white knight's voice became calm again and he began to continue describing.

"In the blazing palace, in the corner of the scorching battlefield where blue magma and red magma meet, when the unknown creature stared at the subordinate for a while, an indescribable voice came to mind in the subordinate's ears."

"It seemed like someone was murmuring in a nightmare, or like the rustling sound of countless bugs crawling by his ears, or like the harsh sound of sharp objects scratching the frosted surface. He said to his subordinates: "You, Are you willing to continue living? Of course, there is a price to pay.”

"Accompanied by this sudden voice, it echoed wantonly in the mind of the subordinate. Although the subordinate was extremely frightened, he still tried his best to make a nod."

"At that time, the Kingdom of Loren was at a critical juncture, and as the Apocalypse Knight who protects the kingdom, my subordinates naturally had the unshirkable responsibility. If they could continue to fight, they would not hesitate to sign a contract with the devil."

"Then, the subordinate felt a sudden spin and lost consciousness."

At this point, the white knight's voice clearly revealed a trace of disappointment, as if what he described next made him very regretful.

"During the process of losing consciousness, my subordinate was not always in a completely comatose state, but sometimes half asleep and half awake."

"In that hazy state, I felt that I seemed to be suspended in a void, and seemed to be in some kind of warm body. It was very weird."

"I don't know how long it took, but when I opened my eyes again, I was already in a ruins overgrown with weeds, but it seemed familiar."

"The bright sunshine above my head is dazzling and warm, and the breeze blowing in my face is gentle and comfortable. I know that I am back."

"After completely adapting to the light of the outside world, my subordinate found that the broken armor on his body was no longer visible, and his body that was almost severed by the ax blade had recovered as before, and even the scars were not visible."

"But before my subordinates could feel happy, they suddenly realized that the broken walls and ruins around them were the ruins of the Loren Palace!"

"Looking around, everything is desolate. The former palace has been covered by jungle. This undoubtedly means that my subordinates have spent a long time."

"Emotions such as loss, powerlessness, regret, and anger flooded into my subordinate's mind. Although the unknown thing repaired my subordinate's body, it also made me miss everything."

"The fierce sounds of fighting and the ferocious laughter of the enemy are still echoing in my ears. The once powerful and glorious kingdom of knights and the menacing alliance army have ceased to exist in the blink of an eye, leaving only the subordinates themselves."


The white knight smiled bitterly and shook his head, his voice full of bitterness and helplessness.

After hearing what the white knight said, Lei Xiao's mind immediately pictured the former sitting on the ground, looking around at a loss.

It was hard for Lei Xiao to imagine what kind of expression he would make if he were sitting there.

Immediately afterwards, the white knight's voice reached Lei Xiao's ears again.

"At that time, there was only one question in my subordinate's mind. Since the kingdom I once protected has been reduced to ruins, what is the meaning of my subordinates' survival as guardians?"

"With this question in mind, my subordinates started wandering around the ruins like zombies."

"Along the way, the lively and familiar streets of the past and the desolate and dilapidated ruins of today complement each other in my subordinate's memory, until I discovered that my forehead was inlaid with a small dark blue crystal stone."

"After many attempts, I learned that the crystal is actually connected to my skull and cannot be removed at all."

"At this point, the subordinates realized that this was the price of repairing the body, although at the time, the subordinates did not know what this price meant."

The white knight sighed heavily, the story had come to an end.

"Finally, my subordinates found the answer they wanted in the ruins. The ruins are also a continuation of that glorious era, so what continues may be more than just ruins."

"My subordinates are looking for the descendants of the Loren royal family and will continue to protect them."

"With this belief in mind, my subordinates left the ruins and came to the nearest city, Blue Cold Castle. Only then did they learn that more than 500 years had passed since the battle that destroyed the country." (End of Chapter)< br>
