"Well, why are we here?" Kai asked tactfully.

"Because this is the only place that can be connected to the underground database of the Metropolitan Protectorate." Mulan put on a mask and squinted her eyes and said.

"But it stinks so much here, and after all these years, hasn't the smell gone away?" Xuan Ce was extremely disgusted, and refused to wear a mask.

The secret passage is connected to the underground database hidden in the Metropolitan Mansion, and the entrance is in the sewer near the General's Mansion, but even if no one has used it for many years, the smell here is still so bad, dim and damp, and there is a cold breath, mixed with a fishy smell.

"Gross-" A gust of wind blew, and Xuan Ce immediately leaned against the wall and vomited, and Shouyu took out the prepared licorice and asked him to chew it with water.

Mulan thought to herself, sometimes the sense of smell is too sensitive, and it is also very bad!

"Sister Mulan, Xuan Ce doesn't have to go, just pick us up with Brother Su Lie outside."

At this time, Brother Su Lie was in the General's Palace.

"Are you going with us? It's very dangerous in there, after all, so many years have passed, and I don't know what happened down there...... I said if it was dangerous! You ......"

"Don't worry, Sister Mulan, I'll just stick to the wall."

"Alright then," Mulan nodded, then looked at her teammates, "I'll tell you a little bit about the situation." ”

A few years ago, the Demon Seed ravaged the four border cities, and countless cities were destroyed because of the power in a certain city that drove the Demon Seed crazy, and that power was said to be able to activate miracles deep in the desert in the clouds.

But after so many years, the demon seed has found nothing, and the people of Chang'an who have received the secret report have also found nothing, so they speculate that that power is still hidden in the secret treasury of a certain city.

Therefore, the empress sent a small detachment of guards searching for the treasure, and issued a conscription order, promising to find only that treasure and present it to the empress, so that the empress could mobilize the power of the country to fulfill a wish for the treasure donor.

Countless people went to the desert in the clouds, some to obtain treasures to present to the empress, in exchange for honor and fiefdoms, some wanted to obtain the key to the miracle and master the miracle themselves, and some did not want the miracle to fall into anyone's hands and planned to seal it.

A few days ago, the Great Wall team received information from a mysterious monk who told them that there was an underground database under the General's Hall of the Imperial Palace, which might contain information related to the Miracle Key, and asked them to investigate.

"When the time comes, everyone will look for it as much as possible, don't spread it too far, and support each other when there is danger, understand?" Mulan admonished.

"I see, Sister Mulan." Shou Yue touched Xuan Ce's head and said to him, "Listen to Brother Su Lie's words, do you understand?" ”

"I know, I know, brother, can you come back sooner?"

"Okay."

"Armor?" Mulan called out to the armor who was looking at the entrance, his brows furrowed, and his breathing was a little rapid.

"Armor!"

"What's wrong?" The armor was startled by Mulan's voice and asked.

"Kai, your expression just now is so terrifying......" Hua Mulan was stunned for a moment, and said in a low voice.

Facing Mulan's bright eyes, the armor looked a little embarrassed, and whispered, "I'm sorry, I'm ...... Bad memories come to mind. ”

"Next time, will you tell me about it?"

"Okay."

The light stone glowed with a golden light in the pupils of the guards, which Su Lie had lent them.

It was a gift from Garo's best friend many years ago, and Garo gave it to Su Lie.

The tunnels were silent, save for the footsteps of a few of them and the sound of water dripping overhead.

With the light of the light stone, Mulan unfolded the map sent by the monk, which was still very new and intact when the Metropolitan Mansion was built, and she said, "There is only one tunnel to the database, and it is hidden in these tunnels, and these tunnels have countless forks in the road, so we can't get separated, understand?" ”

"Yes."

"Understood."

"I heard that this underground database was a prison a long time ago for the interrogation of some prisoners who could not be killed or disposed of, and those prisoners should be related to ancient times, what is the specific situation? I don't know. ”

Mulan paused and said, "You know it's going to be dangerous, that's it." ”

"Wait, there's a voice." The promise keeper's ears moved, and he looked back for a moment, and a pair of red eyes loomed in the darkness.

At this moment, the bright light emitted by the light stone was disintegrated into points of light, and it was attracted by those eyes.

“…… Demon Seed? Mulan raised her light sword and prepared to attack.

"Bang ——!"

The bullet was loaded, and with the muffled snort of the red-eyed demon seed, more "red eyes" lit up in the darkness.

It was a squarry, dense, disgusting bunch of bugs.

Seeing this group of bugs, Rao is Mulan, and she couldn't help but feel sick in her stomach.

It turned out that the kind of smell that made Xuan Ce vomit was emanating from this group of bugs.

"Shall we retreat? Here, it's disgusting. "Demon armor has been formed on the armor's body, as if it is facing a great enemy.

"Wait, look there." Mulan raised her light sword and pointed at the demon seed that had been hit by the Covenant.

Or, rather, not the Demon Seed, but the descendants of the Demon Seed.

Where its golden blood flowed, the bugs ducked.

The blood turned into points of light, illuminating the space and dispersing the swarm of insects overhead.

With this light, Mulan saw clearly the appearance of the descendants of the demon seed.

It was a teenager covered in thick black feathers, and he had fainted because of the gunshot wound.

And near it, there is a fork in the road, and in the fork, there is a huge nest.

"Looks like we broke into someone else's home?" Mulan approached the demon boy and lifted his heavy bangs, revealing those big red eyes.

- Blind to death.

"Is he ......" Shou put away his gun, a little afraid of his accidental injury.

"Don't worry, he's not dead." Mulan snorted and said to Shou Yu.

After thinking for a moment, he said, "Let's transfer him out first, and maybe we can ask him about the situation here." ”

The armor picked up the demon seed boy and strode directly past the two, Shou Yu couldn't help but ask Mulan, "He's a bird, right?" Why live in this kind of place? ”

"I don't know, let's find a way to save him first."

"But we don't have a doctor, what are we going to do?"

"Go to the Erosion Land, and the demon seed can get better as long as it absorbs the power of the Demon Dao." Kai said.

"But he's a descendant of the Demon Seed, eh, wait, you say he's a Demon Seed?" Shou Yu was shocked, the aura of the demon seed boy was obviously no different from him.

"It's different, I've seen some of them look like people before, however, it's still different from humans, and it's not the same as the descendants of the demon seed."

"Are we going to kill him, then?" Mulan's hand immediately pressed on the dagger.

"No need, he has survived under the General's Highness for a long time, and he must know what happened back then, so we can interrogate him." Kai said.

"You...... Before, you were never interested in gathering intelligence, how? ”

"I thought about what had happened before...... At that time, I was also facing a humanoid demon seed, but that humanoid demon seed was much stronger than the current one. ”

Shou Yue was stunned for a moment, "You mean, the altar back then?" ”

"Well, under Jinting City, there are incredible monsters hidden." Armor paused for a moment, and then said, "But that monster has incomparably strong strength. ”

In the center of the desert in the clouds, a tornado suddenly blew, and in the midst of the storm, the huge demon seed broke through the sand dunes and crawled out, floating in the air, looking down on this strange land.

Before activating the seal, Lord Nuwa had told him that the future had already changed in the dark, and the Ark did not know where to go, but as long as it was still guarding something, it was a reason to continue fighting.

But ah, thousands of years later, he hasn't broken free from this seal, and he has to forget what he used to be like.

Once upon a time, he was also a human, not a demon known as the Eye of Annihilation.

In his memory, he came from a distant world and was one of the great scientists of that world, but in the new history of this continent, there is no longer him, and there is no longer an ark.

He had an unwilling emotion in his heart, and this emotion was not only him, almost all the members of the Ark had this thought.

Why, when they created this world, why didn't the world run according to the planned trajectory?

Why resist?

Why not?

Why go for a futile struggle?

"That's because they want freedom, even if it's expensive, but they're willing to pay for it."

In the midst of his endless struggle, he heard familiar voices from the far and cold Far North.

His colleague, the god who guards the Tower of the Sun, and his former best friend, the god of water, Gonggong.

"You too...... Awakened? He asked incredulously, and added, "Nuwa has already woken up, and she will only wake us up when she needs us...... What do you think is the situation now? ”

"I don't know, but this planet is no worse than it was 3,000 years ago, and it is no better than it was 3,000 years ago."

"Human, is there still faith? Gonggong, have you heard the sound of sacrifice? ”

"You want to know? Then break free of the seal and let's go and have a look. ”

"Okay, come to me, I'll wait for you at the Great Wall."

To the west of the Great Wall, there are many beautiful cities for the border.

Like flowers, they absorb the sunlight of the desert and develop a splendid civilization.

However, a haze gradually invaded the sky, and the storm kicked up sand and dust, forcing the occupants to flee, leaving only empty cities......

To rally forces against the demon seed that created the storm,—— the legendary "Eye of Annihilation"

The Great Wall Guardian has issued a Hero Call Order, which can be accessed by every hero on the King Continent.

Heroes who destroy the "Eye of Annihilation" will receive great honor!

The lost ancient city is waiting for the moment to regain its glory.

On this day, with Mulan's prancing horse, a ray of light has penetrated the border.

"Heroes, go!"
