In the red desert, a purple-black dragon with a height of 100 meters flew through the air at great speed, and the fierce wind pressure was like a sharp blade sweeping the enchantment around it.

On the dragon's back, there were still two small figures standing at this time, none other than Chen Ming and Drake, who rushed to the position of the Demon Dragon's Linyuan Army.

As the closest city to the abyss, Halmod is still very far away, and in order to prevent the beasts from attacking, the dragon and other factions have built a series of defenses and fortresses near the abyss to stop it.

On the back of the dragon. Chen Ming gently stroked the purple blackened rough scales, perhaps because of the perennial battle, these thick scales were also covered with scars.

"It seems that the battle with the abyss is more severe than I imagined......"

At the speed of the Transcendent's thunder, after nearly a day of flying, terrifying fortresses made of black steel slowly appeared in front of them.

Outside the fortress, a huge army was patrolling outside, and Chen Ming could clearly feel that there was no one here who was at the ninth order except for him.

"This is the real battlefield!"

Although I have seen similar scenes in magic books, but now I am really there, but it is a different experience.

An army in the distance apparently noticed the sight of the attack, but when it saw the thunder of the comers, it stopped, saluted them, and turned away.

After the two of them left their backs, Lei Ming transformed into a human form and said, "I still have some business in my hands, Drake, you take the young master to walk around first, remember, don't go near there until we are ready!"

"Yes!"

Convinced of his father's words, Drex saluted and walked in another direction with Chenming.

Thunder sighed and left.

Obviously very familiar with this place, Drex's introduced as he walked through with Chenming.

"In fact, the environment here is not as serious as the legend outside, in fact, unless you actually enter the abyss, this place is still extremely safe, even the giant beasts that crawl out of the abyss cannot match our army. ”

Looking at the army that was moving away in the distance, Drexs said with a smile, "Of course, because of the proximity to the periphery, the magic content here is extremely low, and if you don't stay here for a long time, I'm afraid it will cause discomfort." ”

"I didn't feel any discomfort though. ”

Thinking about it self-deprecatingly, Chen Ming asked, "Don't tell me, you've been here since you graduated, right?"

"It's not just after graduation. ”

Drax smiled, "Before you came to Hell, I often followed my father to intercept the Abyssal Behemoth, although it was not the main force, but even so, it was still full of dangers, and I still have lingering fears. ”

"Drake!"

At this time, a deep man's voice came from a distance, and the two of them looked and found that a strong middle-aged man in heavy armor was walking towards them.

"Uncle Leighton?"

Obviously, Drex knew him, turned to Chenming and said, "Let's go." ”

After approaching, the man dismissed the team behind him and said with a smile, "Why don't you go and accompany Ailian, why did you come to the army?"

As he spoke, he looked at Chen Ming again and saluted, "This is the successor of despair in comparison, right?"

"Hello Uncle Layton. ”

Chen Ming returned the salute and said, "I have something to do that I need to go to the abyss, and Drax is my guide. ”

"The abyss?"

When Layton heard this, his pupils immediately constricted, "Are you crazy?

"Because of something, we have to go. ”

Drex's reluctantly said, "Father agreed." ”

"You're messing around, and he's messing around?"

Layton, who was originally in a good mood, felt like thunder at this time, and walked angrily towards the camp in the distance.

"Who is this Uncle Layton?"

Tatsunato asked, "It looks very strong." ”

"Of course it's strong. ”

Drex smiled bitterly, "He is my father's own brother, the deputy commander of the Linyuan Army, and he is also the only existence here other than my father who can use his body to shake the abyss giant beast. ”

"Shaking the Abyss Behemoth with Flesh?"

Chen Ming was surprised, he had never come into contact with the abyss giant beast, but he had learned from the book that this giant beast had no magic power in its body, but its physical body was more terrifying than that of an adult eighth-order dragon, and its magic resistance was extremely high, even if he walked out of the abyss, if he wanted to defeat them, he would need to pay a great price.

Being able to shake the abyss giant beast also means that Layton's physique has reached the same level as the giant beast at least, and Chen Ming can't imagine that there is anyone other than the demon king who can beat this kind of existence in hand-to-hand combat.

"Life changes nature, can nature also change life......

The harsh environment has created the strength of the demon dragons, and it is precisely because of this that they have been able to hold the abyss for countless years.

"Let's go, let's take you to familiarize yourself with the environment first, entering the abyss is extremely dangerous, and father They also need some preparations. ”

Drex's step forward and said, "We're going to have to stay here for a few days." ”

"Hmm. ”

......

The camp of the Linyuan Army was only twenty kilometers away from the outskirts of the abyss, so it was extremely cold day and night, and the endless black hole not only took the magic for itself, but also wiped out the temperature on the ground.

Standing on the wall made of black steel, Chen Ming looked into the distance, even if it was far away, he could still clearly feel the faint devouring power coming from that place, slowly sucking his magic power.

"Why do I always have a sense of familiarity?"

Asking himself, Chen Ming's eyes flashed with puzzlement, he had never been here, but he had an inexplicable sense of familiarity, as if something was calling him.

"I advise you not to stare there for too long. ”

At this time, a small black paw patted him on the shoulder, and the black rabbit said, "That ghost place, but it can attract people's souls, even the demon king, don't dare to watch it from a distance for too long." ”

"I suddenly lost faith in this trip. ”

The corners of Chen Ming's mouth were bitter, and he said, "I'm not sure, someone can come out of there, even if it's An Mixiu." ”

"Why didn't you think that when you went to the Temple of Time?"

The black rabbit pursed his lips and said, "I regret it now, but it's a little too late, the gift has been promised, and it is impossible to take it back, including you." ”

"I know. ”

Chenming turned around and walked down the wall, "I'm just whining. ”

Behind him, the Black Rabbit stared at him and asked, "You always go out of your way for your friends, what can they give you?"

"Maybe it makes me look less lonely. ”

Chen Ming stopped, took another step, and disappeared from the sight of the black rabbit.

"But one day, you'll be alone. ”

The black rabbit muttered in a low voice, and the figure faded, "It's like this abyss, devouring all the light, and in the end it's still just a hole." ”

......

Back at the camp, Tatsunami came to the accommodation that Lei Ming had prepared for him, a huge tent, the skin of which was also made of black steel.

"Everything here should be provided by the dwarves, right?"

Chen Ming looked at it with a smile and walked in slowly.

At this time, there was already a person in the tent, and the heavy iron armor looked extremely intimidating under the illumination of the light.

"Uncle Thundering. ”

Chen Ming smiled and asked, "Is there anything wrong with coming to me so late?"

Lei Ming paused slightly, sat opposite Chen Ming, and said, "Tomorrow is the time to enter the abyss, I have some things that I need to talk to you about." ”

Chen Ming listened with his ears down, "You say?"

"That's right. ”

Lei Ming was silent for a moment, and said, "The Linyuan Army was ordered to guard the abyss, and at the same time, it was expressly forbidden to step into the depths of the abyss, so at most, we can only help you and Drexus block the giant beasts on the periphery, and when we enter the depths, we will withdraw our troops, and then everything will have to rely on you." ”

"I know. ”

Chen Ming nodded and said, "Uncle, don't worry, I will definitely bring Drax back safely." ”

Lei Ming opened his mouth, as if he wanted to persuade, but in the end, he hesitated, so he could only shake his head and say, "Forget it, I have said everything that should be said, and you can do the rest for yourself." ”

"I know your concerns. ”

Chen Ming smiled, "Actually, I don't have any certainty, but in order not to let Drexes live in regret and self-blame, I feel that my choice is not wrong." ”

"You ......"

Lei Ming was surprised and looked at the young man, "You did this just for this?"

"Hmm...... Not exactly. ”

Chen Ming thought for a moment and said with a smile, "I'm curious about what the world under this abyss is like. ”

The middle-aged man was incredulous, and finally smiled bitterly, "I am proud that my son will be able to serve a monarch like you in the future." ”

"Haha. ”

Chen Ming smiled and said, "I hope that he and I can be friends rather than ministers." ”

"You can't say that. ”

Lei Ming's mood seemed to have become a little better, and he smiled and said, "After all, there is a difference between the monarch and the minister, my Demon Dragon Clan's allegiance to despair for so many years, what should I do, he will understand." ”

"Who knows what will happen in the future?"

Chen Ming got up and said, "Even tomorrow, I can't say for sure." ”

......

As if agreed, all the people of Halmod seemed to have stayed up all night, camped out of the line early, waiting for the dawn to come.

Early in the morning, the boy came out of the tent, only to find that Drake, Thunder, and Layton were already waiting at the door, helplessly straightening some dirty hair, and he said, "Let's go." ”

The camp of the Linyuan army in the morning was very cold, so cold that even Chen Ming needed to use magic to resist the cold, and when he came to the city gate, he saw a strong team standing neatly not far away.

The number of people in the team is not large, only a hundred, but in Chen Ming's perception, the magic power of these people, almost none of them is lower than Drake.

"This is the commando team of our Linyuan Army, and it is the most powerful killing weapon under my father's command. ”

Beside Chen Ming, Drax said, "Most of these people are high-level demons of my Demon Dragon Clan, and of course, some of them are demons of other races in Lord An Mixiu's family, and there is no doubt that each of them is a seventh-order. ”

"It's not bad, really. ”

Nodding thoughtfully, Chen Ming looked at those people with a smile, not to mention the magic power, just from the smell of blood on their bodies, he could smell the desire to kill.

"I'm afraid that even an eighth-order demon wouldn't dare to say that he could easily defeat this team, right?"

The gap between the seventh and eighth orders was far greater than that between the third and seventh orders, if nothing else, just because of the unique characteristic magic power of the eighth order, it was enough to discourage many seventh-order demons.

But the senses that this army gave to Chen Ming could no longer be defined by rank, he was the successor of despair, and his perception of this characteristic was even more acute than the thunder of the transcendent, and from them, he could clearly capture how strong and intense the despair spread.

At this time, Lei Ming, who was talking in front of the army, turned around and walked towards the two of them, saluted Chen Ming and said, "We can go." ”

"Well, hard work. ”

Tatsunami smiled and nodded, then rolled over the unicorn that Drex's had prepared for him, tightened the reins, and after a burst of neighing, galloped out.

Behind him, the elite of the Linyuan Army led by Thunder and Layton followed closely behind and let go of the reins.

As the distance got closer and closer, Chen Ming could faintly hear the roar of the stretching beast coming from afar, and before he could speak, he heard Leighton's loud scolding from behind, "This group of beasts, the speed of multiplication is getting faster and faster!"

Chen Ming looked back and caught a glimpse of the two of them frowning tightly together, puzzled, "What do you mean?"

"I'm afraid it won't be long before another insect tide happens, and what worries me even more is that the difficulty of our trip has increased a lot. ”

Lei Ming said solemnly, "We miscalculated the reproduction speed of the Abyss Behemoth. ”

"How so?"

Drake's face also turned a little pale, "Didn't you just annihilate a batch two months ago?"

Chen Ming frowned and asked again, "So, can you explain to me what you mean by your words?"

Lei Ming shook his head and said, "Get closer, and you'll know what it means." ”

Several people marched forward again, and it didn't take long for Chen Ming's eyes to be attracted by that strange and terrifying scene.

In the sky ahead, there were countless monstrous giant insects, struggling and writhing, opening their huge mouths full of fangs, roaring at the sky, and their pitch-black bodies were covered with barbed spikes.

"This is the Abyss Behemoth?"

Even though the distance was still far away, Chen Ming could still feel the size and hideousness of those giant insects.

"Every once in a while, they will begin to multiply and multiply, increasing their numbers in explosive growth, and when they reach an extreme, the periphery will no longer be able to trap them, and they will be released and attack the city!"

Lei Ming's eyes were cold, obviously his heart had fallen to the bottom at this time, "Before I succeeded them, the speed at which they reproduced was not fast, and the cycle even took three years, but in recent decades, their growth rate has increased countless times, and now, they can't even hold on for two months!"

"In the current situation, it's better to go back first. ”

Leighton proposed, "Annihilation of the insect tide, it's not too late for us to go!"

"After the insect tide is annihilated, do we still have the strength to enter the abyss?"

Thunder Ming's eyes were terrified and he looked at Drake, "Drake, if you can return this time, the position of commander will be handed over to you!"

"Father!"

As if sensing something, Drake's face became even more ugly, and he said, "I ......"

"You don't have a choice, neither of us. ”

Lei Ming sighed, "From the moment you receive the gift, your fate is already doomed!"

Chen Ming was silent, and it was not until this moment that he began to regret that he was too immature and weak compared to the Demon King.

A tear slipped down Drake's face, and at this moment, the young man seemed to be countless years old, and endless condemnation and regret spread all over his body.

"Let's go. ”

Lei Ming retracted his gaze, got off the war horse, and his body swelled rapidly, "Layton, after stepping in, divide into two teams, kill a way out, and send them into the abyss!"

There was a hint of deterrence in the faint roar, and the purple-black pupils flashed with a decisive light.

There was anger in Layton's eyes, he was not afraid of death, but he did not want to die so meaninglessly, even if it was for the sake of Drake.

"Roar!"

A roar erupted from Leighton's mouth, and behind the Abyss Demon Dragon, which was no less than the size of Thunder, more dragons transformed into their bodies, and their bloodthirsty roars spread out at this moment!

The grieving and angry young man also transformed, turning into a giant dragon more than 70 meters long, and with a flick of his tail, he threw Chen Ming behind his back.

The gigantic dragon body took over the entire desert, and a terrible roar resounded through the sky, and the giant worm that seemed to be pulled in wriggled even more violently, trying to break out of the endless black hole.

"Phew!"

A piercing air explosion sounded in Chenming's ears, and in an instant, Thunder and Layton had already flown into the range of the abyss, colliding with the two largest terrifying worms.

The sharp dragon claws crushed the barb, making a clicking sound, and the dragon's blood basin bit down on the jaw of the giant worm, bringing a piece of flesh out of the abyss.

The giant worm roared violently, its wriggling body tightly wrapping the thunder in a terrifying force that seemed to shatter it.

"Big brother!"

Layton, who was also very close to the battle, roared and wanted to come to the rescue, but was frantically entangled by another giant worm and couldn't get out at all.

"Roar, roar, roar!"

At this time, more demon dragons pounced, and one after another dragon claws fell on the body of the giant insect, and in an instant, the giant insect was scratched into flesh, released the thunder, and pounced on the other demon dragons.

Taking advantage of its distraction, Thunder Roar grabbed the giant worm's waist with a pair of dragon claws and tore it apart to both sides.

I only heard a stabbing sound, and endless blood fell on Thunder's wounded body like a curtain of rain, making this abyss demon dragon look even more terrifying and hideous.

At the same time, Layton had already pulled out the entire head of the giant insect and its internal organs, and threw it off the abyss.

However, the battle had just begun, and more giant insects, attracted by the smell of blood, pounced on this side, although not as large as the two dead ones, but outrageously numerous.

"Roar!"

Thunder roared and roared, "The whole army is out!"
