Chapter 444 The Ninth Demon
Futon Volcano, Camus and a group of people arrived here under the leadership of two dragons. Looking at the towering volcano in front of them and smelling the pungent smell of sulfur in the air, Camus patted the wet water dragon and helped it. to relieve his anxiety.
"Go up directly?" Looking at the motionless volcano, Susie said eagerly. This irritating hot environment made people feel impulsive.
"Fellow strong men, the mountain is an active volcano, and those demons are sleeping underground. Their slaves built a huge palace for them, just behind the Brodo Gate, but there is a troublesome thing at the door." Green Dragon The head below spoke humbly. Seeing this scene, the water dragon on the side spit out a mouthful of seawater silently. He simply hated this bastard. He was the one who brought these evil stars, and he was the kind who would kill the dragon if he disagreed with him. If he hadn't begged for mercy quickly, he would have been torn into pieces by the woman holding the sword.
"Take us there." Gandalf suppressed the throbbing in his heart and spoke in a low voice. He could indeed smell the faint smell of demons in the air, and he was also a Balrog who followed the path of anger.
As soon as the green dragon spoke humbly, Kamiao walked up to him and looked at him expressionlessly. Gradually, his eyes gradually became deeper, and the red and blue eyes made the green dragon shiver all over.
"It's in the swamp ahead. It's easy to find. I'll take you there."
After a while, several people came to the swamp in the mountain. Looking at the huge stone door covered with vines and cracked, Kamiao frowned.
"It looks like it hasn't been opened for a long time. Didn't you say they have slaves?"
Green Dragon also had a weird look on his face when he heard it, but after a while he still spoke humbly.
"I saw those goblins ten years ago. They do live inside. This is indeed the door to the underground. It can't be wrong."
"Something is coming." Camus wanted to try to use a mirror to see inside. At this moment, Susie behind him spoke softly. As the earth trembled behind him, an unknown monster emerged from the swamp. The bottom surged over, and upon seeing this scene Akali's hand gently held the sword.
"Roar..." A ferocious bloody mouth tore through the mud and rushed out. His black scales sparkled in the sun. Looking at the monster in front of him, Susie commented calmly.
"Eh... a big snake, beat it half to death and ask what's going on inside. Don't kill me. Do you go or do I go?" After hearing this, Akali responded with action. Along with a sword light that tore the sky, the monster Sensing danger, he turned around and saw a blue sword energy striking towards him. Before he could react, his tail had been broken into two pieces. He immediately shrank his eyes and didn't even have time to cry out in pain. So he got into the swamp, knowing that he had provoked a ruthless person this time.
Soon enough, just when it was about to rush down, the biting cold on his neck made him freeze. He slowly lowered his head, with extremely slight movements, for fear that the long sword below would penetrate him at the slightest word. throat.
"Gu..." At this time, the big snake also saw clearly who was giving him a fatal threat. He immediately swallowed a mouthful of mucus and remained motionless. This was a fish-man. Different from the shabby fish-men he had seen, this The aura emanating from the fish-man made him feel suffocated. The long sword exuded cold air, and he couldn't help but suspect that his head would move if he made even the slightest move.
"Hey, you can bear it quite well? Doesn't the tail hurt?" Seeing the other party's cooperation, Akali looked at the twisted half of the tail and spoke in a low voice. The big snake's face showed a twist when he heard it, but it remained motionless and did not even dare to speak.
Seeing how scared the other party was, Akali curled her lips and pointed to the door in the distance.
"What's going on inside the door? You should be living here, right?"
The big snake nodded like a chicken pecking at rice, then lowered his voice and spoke tremblingly.
"The goblins inside the door seemed to have been slaughtered. I heard screams inside. I don't know who did it. Not a single living creature came out around 9 years ago."
Hearing this, Akali put her sword back and walked over briskly. The big snake thought about it and followed him honestly. In a moment, two dragons and one snake met, but he didn't know that Akali Feeling the big snake following behind him obediently, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
When the big snake arrived at the gate, he looked at the two dragons with blazing eyes. He finally figured out that the pervert with the sword was brought by these two bastards. He had been harmed by them. Was he out of his mind today? The water is gone. Wouldn't it be good to sleep at the bottom of the lake? What are you doing here to get beaten?
Seeing that the big snake had been tidied up and docile, the two dragons looked at each other vaguely, and the huge dragon kiss also cracked. I am a poor man, but I am humiliated, and you will not feel better. Everyone is. I have been an enemy since I was a child, and I feel comfortable when I see the other person being uncomfortable.
"What's going on inside the door?" Seeing Akali bringing the big snake over, Camus didn't want to pay attention to their inner activities and micro-expressions, and pointed to the door covered with vines.
"I don't know. Nine years ago, I heard a scream inside the door. Since then, no life has come out. Because it is the territory of the devil, I am not interested." Orochi honestly told what he had seen. After saying this, Camus narrowed his eyes when he heard the words. He had just used a mirror to see inside. Inside, there were small withered bones, densely packed everywhere. Looking inside, Orochi was right, many people did die inside, and he was indeed not lying.
Laura, who was standing next to him, saw this and spoke in a low voice, "My intuition of nightmares tells me that there are no high-ranking people inside. Let's go in directly. The high-ranking people on the Loran continent are only the elves, and neither demons nor dragons have high-ranking people."
"I don't know if there are high-ranking people, but it is true that there are demons. I smell the smell of sulfur." Gandalf, who was standing next to him, licked his lips and spoke excitedly. Hearing that there was life inside, Camus relaxed instead. He looked at the three monsters with big eyes and small eyes, thought for a moment, and wrote an agreement and handed it to them. The three monsters looked at each other and signed the agreement humiliatingly under the cold eyes of Susie and Akali.
"Wait for us outside, push the door open." Camus put away the agreement and spoke indifferently. The three monsters pushed the door open with all their strength. The door of more than 100 meters was pushed open with a creaking sound.
"Huh..." As soon as the door was pushed open, a foul smell mixed with dust was blown out. Camus squinted his eyes and looked over. All he could see were bones. This was a large stone palace. It was pitch black inside and he couldn't see what was going on. Even though Camus had dark vision, he could only see part of it.
"Boom..."
Gandalf beside him saw this and immediately transformed. The flames all over his body illuminated the empty hall. The whole hall was imprinted in everyone's eyes. This was a hall supported by stone pillars. The floor of the hall was covered with bones and weapons. What everyone saw just now was just the tip of the iceberg of bones.
"So many bones, there are hundreds of thousands of them." Caska sighed worriedly when he saw this scene. This reminded him of the massacre of the Fallen Saint in the Fifth City. They saw the same scene at the beginning.
"You wait outside, we'll go in." Camus looked at the deeper darkness and spoke in a low voice. The three monsters lay behind the door when they heard it. Until the figures of Camus and his companions disappeared, they immediately climbed up and looked at the other two with hostility.
"Damn you bastards, I've been badly hurt by you, go to hell." The big snake, who had been holding back his anger for a long time, pounced on the green dragon beside him, and the green dragon's cheeks turned black when he saw it.
"It was the water dragon who said it, he was the one who told you out."
Hearing this, the big snake pounced on the water dragon with red eyes. In his opinion, neither of these two dragons was a good thing.
When the water dragon heard it, he cursed and pounced on him. "It was the green dragon that betrayed me, and he also betrayed you, kill him."
The two dragons and one snake immediately wrestled together, and the scene was extremely spectacular and chaotic.
In the palace, Camus, who walked into a corridor, was immediately attracted by the murals on the wall. The murals clearly showed nine demons worshipping a big tree and performing a bloody ritual. This reminded him of the origin of Sequence Nine. At the beginning, the Fallen obtained the power of seven desires under the Origin Mother Tree. They betrayed their faith and fled underground. Among them, the Demon Lord Sauron became a god in the path of Sequence Nine, and the other seven Fallen became the controllers of seven desires respectively. There are nine demons here, where did the extra demon go?
Susie, who is more proficient in history and supernatural events, also saw the content on the murals. Putting aside other miscellaneous contents, it is very abnormal for nine demons to sacrifice to the Origin Mother Tree. As far as he knows, Sequence Nine is very unfriendly to Sequence Eight, which also originated from the Origin Mother Tree. It can even be described as bitter and vengeful. There are only seven demons who master the power of desire and one demon lord in historical records. So is this ninth one directly related to the demons of the Loran Continent? After thinking about it, she still told what she knew.
"The power of Sequence Nine originates from the Origin Mother Tree. They worshiped the ancient tree and betrayed it. The other eight have traces to be found. Is this ninth demon related to the demons here? Does anyone know the origin of the demons on the Loran continent?"
After hearing Susie's question, Laura looked at the bones and murals on the ground and spoke in a low voice.
"The demons on the Loran continent have existed since ancient times. They are different from the demons living in hell. They only live underground on the Loran continent and never go out. The two sides have never met each other. It seems that there is a sense of strangeness."
"Wait, something is wrong under my feet." Just as Camus was thinking about the connection, Akali suddenly looked at her feet and spoke in a low voice. When everyone heard it, they looked down and saw the exquisite patterns carved on the stone slab. Because it was covered with dust for a long time, everyone didn't see clearly that there was something wrong with the stone slab when they came in.
Susie looked at the bottom of her feet and then at the murals on the wall. Her eyes shrank as she thought about it and she spoke in a cold voice.
"It's exactly the same. This is a ritual."
Hearing this, a tornado appeared in Camus's hand. As soon as the tornado landed, it swept around. Gradually, a ritual that was so big that there was no end appeared in everyone's sight.
"Hiss..." Seeing this scene, even Camus, who was very nervous, took a breath of cold air. They were now standing on a ritual and were in danger of being sacrificed at any time.
Hmm? Wait, sacrifice?
While thinking, Camus looked at the endless white bones on the ground and an idea came to his mind.
"Do you think these goblins were sacrificed?"
Hearing this, Susie walked to the mural. She looked at the nine people who were fooled with a strange expression.
"After Sequence Nine betrayed the Origin Tree, they were so cruel to Camus about everything about the Origin Tree. Will they sacrifice to the Origin Tree?"
Laurer proposed a concept after hearing this, "What if the ninth person did not betray the Origin Tree? All this makes sense."
Hearing this concept, the fog in Camus' heart was immediately lifted. He looked at the ritual and the white bones under his feet and spoke softly.
"It's almost certain, and we broke into his lair. It's not that there are no high-ranking demons in the Loran continent, but his high-ranking demons have been hiding, hiding them tightly and hiding them from everyone, and it is possible that he has discovered us."
"No... There are no more powerful demons in the breath coming from the air, only the level of stage four and stage five." Gandalf, who was burning all over, rejected Camus' proposal. There was no high-ranking demon in the breath coming from the depths, which was why he dared to bring a few people in.
"Really? This is good news. Keep going forward. I want to see what secrets are hidden in it."
