"There's Merlot Canyon in front of me, and everyone cheers me up!" Seeing a deep canyon in front of him, Conlikodo's face suddenly became serious, and he shouted loudly to the people around him.

Hearing Conlikodo's voice, all the members of the Iron and Blood Mercenary Regiment put their swords in their hands and were on full alert. Truth be told, even without Conlicodo's reminder, their instincts, cultivated between life and death, were already warning them that this place exuded a deep malice against them.

"Xiaojing, Wanyue, you two take care of Avril." Ling Yun looked at the canyon in front of him, and there was a bad premonition in his heart. "Avril, draw the sword behind you when necessary!"

"Huh? Can I still pull this sword out? Avril asked in surprise.

"It has gained a lot of benefits from you, and naturally it will not sit idly by and watch you face a life-and-death crisis." Ling Yun said lightly.

"What about you?" Chen Jing looked at Ling Yun and asked.

"I, I'm afraid I'm going to take the first step, go to the canyon to have a look, I feel a trace of necromancer here, if there is a necromancer among the people ambushed here, we may be in big trouble!" Ling Yun said.

"Ling Yun, look at the straightness of this canyon, it feels like someone is holding a sword and cutting this area open!" Su Wanyue looked at the canyon in front of her for a long time, and suddenly said to Ling Yun.

"Well, maybe that's the truth!" Ling Yun smiled at the three of them. "Okay, be careful yourself, I'll go first!"

As Ling Yun's words fell, his figure instantly turned into an afterimage and disappeared in place. Ling Yun was silent when he left, and he deliberately borrowed the figure of the third girl to cover it, and none of the people present found that Ling Yun had left here.

In a cave in the Stone Forest, the man in black who was talking to the cloaked man stood in front of a thin old man. The old man was surrounded by a lingering breath of death, and in his hand he held a crystal ball with a cloudy color. In the crystal ball, there are dense points of light, which looks a little crazy.

"Master Launo, how's the situation going?" The man asked, with some urgency.

The old man looked at the light spot in the crystal ball, the excitement in his eyes was uncontrollable, and his whole body trembled: "That's right, that legend is not wrong, this place does have an immeasurable number of demon undead!" From the information displayed on the crystal ball, it can be seen that these demons were wiped out almost at the same time. This place is definitely a trace left by an unknown peerless powerhouse in the thousand-year-old holy war! Sleeping in this place is a whole army of demons, as long as they can all be awakened, who on this continent can help me! ”

"Is the demon army's undead really that powerful?" The man asked with some curiosity.

"The strength of the demons is indeed very strong, and their strength is beyond most people's imagination. In the thousand-year-old holy war, if it weren't for the powerful existence of the gods and dragons, and the elves who had a great restraint effect on the demons, the strength of the human race alone, under the crazy blows of the demons, would not last long! Raunaud said lightly. A thousand-strong demon army, the human race often has to pay several times the price to be able to destroy it, and sometimes it will even be killed! If it weren't for the sudden rise of the Lingyun Mercenary Group later, and then the killing of the Lord of the Demon Realm in the eyes of people in disbelief, it is still unknown how this war would be won or lost in the end. ”

"What do you think now, Master Raunau?" The man asked cautiously.

"Third Prince, if you have an army of demon undead behind you, how many layers will increase your chances of ascending to the throne?" Raunaud spoke slowly.

The man couldn't help but gasp, and there was a hint of surprise in his eyes when he looked at the old man: "Master Lau Nuo, what do you mean by this?" ”

"The old man knows that His Majesty is no longer young now, and he is already choosing the next heir of the empire. Now those who are qualified to inherit the throne are four people in the entire empire, namely the Great Prince, you, the Four Princes and the Nine Emperors. Except for the eldest prince who is slightly stronger, the strength of the remaining three is almost equal. Now the Great Prince has begun to eliminate dissidents, and you are his first target! Raunoe said slowly. With the strength in your hands now, it is definitely not easy to compete with the Great Prince. However, if you have a powerful army of the undead behind you, even His Majesty the Emperor will have to look at you with admiration! ”

Modo took a deep breath, I have to say that Rauno's proposal is really tempting, after all, his current power has begun to shrink under the suppression of the Great Prince, and if it continues like this, he will say goodbye to the throne of the Norton Empire completely. In this case, he had to personally come out to find foreign help. And this time, the cloaked man is one of the foreign aides he has found.

"Master Raunoe helps me like this, it can't be unconditional!"

Although Modo was very tempted by Launo's suggestion, he also knew that there would be no free lunch in the world. The Cloaked Man joined his camp on one of the conditions that Modo would use the power in his hands to completely suppress the power of Chrissy's family, the Northon family. Raunaud had never known him before, but now he offered to help him, which made him a little wary.

"Of course, I'm not unconditional!" Raunaud nodded. "You want you to promise me that after you become emperor, you will give me one thing from the Imperial Vault!"

"An item in the Imperial Vault?" Mordo's brow furrowed.

The Imperial Treasury is the greatest foundation of an empire, and only His Majesty the Emperor of the empire has been able to enter it for generations. Every single thing that can be kept in the Imperial vault is not ordinary, and it will be difficult to do it if Lono wants something dangerous.

"Don't worry so much, I don't want anything dangerous, but a magical item called Cloud Tears!" Raunaud said.

"Cloud tears?" Mordo muttered, he seemed to have heard of this thing somewhere.

After thinking about it for a moment, he remembered somewhere he had heard this. He had seen a record of this thing in an ancient book, and the legend said that this thing had an unusual relationship with the Lingyun Mercenary Group, and it was a mysterious prop made by the two of Biyang Sword Saint and Aurora Sword Saint, which had the effect of resurrecting the dead.

You must know that the ability to resurrect the dead was only controlled by the Holy See in the past. Moreover, there are very few people who can learn the Great Resurrection Technique in the history of the Holy See, and this spell still has all kinds of flaws. And the strange prop of Cloud Tears, although it can only be used once every ten years, can perfectly resurrect people whose souls are still intact. From this point alone, the effect of cloud tears is enough to make people stagger.

"Tears?" After weighing the pros and cons, Mordo finally spoke.

"If you can really help me ascend to the throne, I will give you the Cloud Tears!"

"A word?"

"It's a deal!"
