Secluded, empty, pitch black!

Human beings are social animals, and if they are confined to a space with no light, no sound, and no companions, it will not be long before they go crazy and even commit suicide to find relief.

Although he knew that the place he was in was not the so-called claustrophobic space, Silas subconsciously raised the sound of his breathing as a reminder not to fall into madness.

She didn't dare to light a torch, not even the faintly lit glowstone, because she was afraid that the abrupt light would attract those terrifying beings, the warriors who had been sleeping here for tens of thousands of years, guarding this ancient empire. Silas knew very well that compared to them, the Yellow Sand Servants in the ruins of Shasar made those elite players shudder, and wept bitterly.

I don't know how long it will take, but in such an environment, people's perception of time can be very inaccurate, you may think that you have been moving forward for a few hours, but in fact it is only five minutes. Occasionally, a strong vibration would come from overhead, causing the sand to slide off the top wall, and Silas knew that it was the Lord of the Yellow Sand who had begun to awaken and was actively attacking the magical barrier that enveloped the ruins of Shasar.

The magic array that supported the magical barrier covered the entire ruins of Shasar, and its main function was to prevent the sealed Lord of the Yellow Sand from awakening again. In fact, there are six such magic arrays, scattered among the six desert oases centered on the ruins of Shasar. Ever since the Devouring Serpent began preparing for the tea party more than two months ago, more than fifteen hunting regiments had secretly entered the desert without anyone knowing, destroying the first layer of seals formed by these magic arrays little by little.

For this reason, the Devouring Snake paid the heavy price of four hunting regiments being temporarily demoted and the total number of deaths exceeding 50,000, before finally completely destroying the six magic arrays and confirming the fact that the second layer of seals was in the ruins of Shasar.

And now, with the fifty magic nodes being continuously destroyed, the second layer of seals that shrouded the entire Shasar ruins is about to disappear, and the Lord of the Yellow Sand, who has been initially awakened, is now eager to return to this world, and even does not hesitate to expend his own small strength to accelerate the collapse of the second layer of seals.

This also gave Silas the best chance!

Her current location is more than 300 meters deep underground in the ruins of Shasar, two hours after the tea party began, the second layer of seals that had lost more than half of the magic nodes could no longer cover the entrance to this underground space, and Silas, who had been prepared for a long time, entered here as soon as possible.

Bang! Another extremely strong vibration came from overhead, and the rock formations that were more than three hundred meters thick could not fully resist this terrifying force, and fist-sized broken stones fell one after another, making Silas scramble for a while.

After being hit by the falling rubble a dozen times and losing nearly half of her health, Silas had no choice but to light the torches, although the torches might lure the monsters guarding the place over, but if she didn't, I'm afraid she would be stoned to death by the rocks first!

The light emitted by the torch was like an inconspicuous little yellow bean in this empty underground space, and with the help of the firelight, Silas, who was a dark elf, finally scanned this underground space through dark vision.

This is an extremely large underground palace complex, the top wall alone is at least nearly 100 meters high from the ground, and there are huge palaces tens of meters high everywhere, and even the spires of several palaces can almost touch the top wall. It's hard to imagine such a magnificent ruin in such a deep underground.

"It's magnificent! It's hard to imagine how powerful this ancient empire was when it still existed! Silas couldn't help but admire, and as he adjusted his direction, he headed towards the only palace that was almost connected to the top wall, standing above the sky.

In fact, this is where the Shahra Empire really is, and the ruins of Shasar on the ground are at best a former ghetto of this ancient empire, a place for slaves and commoners, and a place where nobles and rulers of the empire live, socialize, entertain, and give orders, as well as the center of power of the Shahra Empire.

According to the information found by the Snake of the Body, the Shahra Empire was founded at the end of the Antiquity as a nation founded by survivors of the Kingdom of Lothric in ancient times. At the end of the Antiquity, the ancient kingdom of Lothric came to an end with the end of the Fourth Antiquity War, and because most of the land was polluted by the power of the Abyss and the Void, the surviving Lothric people had to leave their homeland for tens of thousands of years.

Soon after, news of the severance of the royal family of Lothric arrived, and the survivors who had settled in Jeremanca decided to renounce their identity as Lothric and establish the Shahra Empire, working to re-expand their influence across the continent.

Unfortunately, the elves, freed from slavery, relied on the knowledge and technology gained from the ruins of the kingdom of Lothric to establish a large elven empire, and eagerly launched an expedition in all directions. When these long-eared Elves discovered the Shahra Empire in Jeremanka, the elves, who were reluctant to return to slavery, waged war against the Shahra Empire under the leadership of Gwen Rodman.

After six years of fighting, the elves finally succeeded in destroying the empire and sealing its emperor along with the entire palace complex.

And this underground palace complex where Silas is located is the capital of the Shahra Empire that was sealed by the elves at the beginning!

With the help of the light of the torches, Silas moved at a much faster speed, and along the way, he could see some tall figures wandering from palace to palace, these were the attendants and servants who had been sealed together with the Emperor of the Shahra Empire, who was now the Lord of the Sands. Unable to leave here for a long time, these poor creatures have long since become a mixture of undead and elemental creatures, even uglier than those yellow sand slaves. The latter was at least half recognizable in human form, while the attendants and servants had almost completely turned into a pile of deformed creatures made of yellow sand.

In order not to irritate these terrible monsters, Silas quickly extinguished the torch and replaced it with a glowstone that can continuously emit a glimmer of light, fortunately, the dark elves have the special ability of dark vision, although the glow of the glowstone can only allow Silas to barely see a distance of about ten meters, but it is enough for her to determine the direction.

Bypassing the monsters along the way, Silas finally stood in front of the huge palace. Now, all that stood between her and the palace was a wide square the size of a football field, and the monsters that roamed the square.

Although it wasn't very difficult for Silas to avoid the vigilance range of these monsters, she still stopped, and after standing in place for a while, she turned to the darkness not far away and said, "You've followed me all the way, and you still won't come out?" ”

Syllable! Syllable! Syllable! Crisp applause came from the darkness, and a figure walked out: "Miss Silas who is worthy of the No. 9 executor, Iron Maiden's nickname is really not taken casually!" Will I be lucky enough to know when you found me? ”

"When I was hit by the sixth piece of rubble! You felt the urge to kill me, didn't you? Unfortunately, my profession is sensitive to hostility, and your murderous aura has exposed you! Silas pulled out the weapon hanging from his belt, it was a rolled whip with a lot of barbs visible on it. Now it's my turn to ask! Why are you here, Executor No.5, [Demon] Cabran Rose! ”

"Oh! I didn't expect that Miss Silas could be remembered by Miss Silas with a cheap name, which really scared me! Kablan smiled and leaned over, "As for why I'm here?" Isn't the answer obvious? I knew from the beginning that you were going to make small moves, so I left a tracking magic mark on you! ”

Silas' expression changed: "When...... It's Sean! You've bought that idiot! ”

If Camilla was here, she would definitely find out that Silas was the dark elf who arrived at the ruins of Shasar with them, and the Sean she was talking about was naturally the goblin who survived at that time.

"It's not easy to determine where you're going! Wasted a lot of my strength! I thought you'd sneak into the ruins of Shasar in that Nobel madman's goblin airship, but I didn't expect you to find Sean! ”

Silas said indignantly: "No wonder that idiot couldn't wait to sell himself to me, I thought he was instructed by the Nobel Prize!" Looks like you bought this guy a long time ago! ”

"A nerd who wants to be on top! There are so many fools under the professor's hands who have no talent but like to dream! But that guy was a little stupid, but at least he helped me a lot! Kablan was clearly in a good mood and even laughed out loud, "Hee-hee! If it weren't for him, I wouldn't have been able to find you in the ruins of Shasar! ”

"What do you want?" Now that the other party has appeared here, Silas will not fantasize that this guy is a good man, and he wants to be a flower messenger when he hides, if it weren't for knowing that he can't solve him in a short time, Silas would have already made a move, where would he talk so much to the other party.

Kabran seemed to have eaten Silas: "What do I want?" No, no, no! Now it's what you want, Miss Silas! If I'm not mistaken, this is where the Shahra Empire really is, right? Although I have long guessed that the purpose of this tea party will not be so simple, but what does the First Pillar behind you want from here? ”

"It's none of your business! Don't think you're lucky enough to guess something and get carried away! ”

"Fluke? Ha ha! Do you think everyone else is stupid? Needless to say, the waste left on there to die, but I can at least be sure that there are quite a few executors who came to the tea party this time who can guess this as much as I do. I advise you not to think it's better to be seen as a fool! ”

Kablan's words made Silas's face change visibly.

"I'm only here because I'm lucky!" Kablaan looked confident, not caring that Silas's face had become very ugly, "Oh, yes! I forgot to tell you! After all, we are all members of the same organization, and I have left a little hint for others in order to promote the spirit of cooperation! ”

At this moment, Silas finally couldn't help but say, "You left a sign!?" ”

"So what you want to do, it's better to do it quickly! It's been a long time, and I'm not sure anyone else will follow! Kablan smiled and pointed to the palace gate at the other end of the square, "Of course, if Miss Silas begged me, I would be happy to help you." ”

"Don't think!"

"Then I'll just sit quietly and watch!" Kablan didn't care about Silas' almost murderous gaze, shrugged his shoulders and prepared to retreat back into the darkness, his character was a creature known as a wraith, a special branch of the demon race, born with characteristics similar to spirit creatures, "I almost forgot!" It's been a long time since there has been a violent tremor, and the existence that has been sealed for tens of thousands of years is likely to break free completely. Miss Silas, you're really running out of time! ”

Only then did Silas realize that he hadn't heard a strong vibration from the ground for nearly five minutes, and it was clear that this meant that the destruction of the second layer of the seal had reached the final moment, and the Lord of the Yellow Sand was about to break free from the shackles of the seal, and the Shahra Empire would be resurrected again. At the same time, it also means that the elite soldiers who have been sleeping in this underground palace complex are about to awaken at the call of the Lord of the Yellow Sand to fight for this ancient empire again.

The thought of being faced with those terrible beings before soon made Silas shudder. You know, according to the information gathered, those warriors who are qualified to enter this palace complex are more or less bloodline of the remnants of Lothric, which means that they are born with great strength, the power of ancient creatures!

Silas even speculated if these terrifying ancient warriors would have heroic strength when they awakened! If that's the case, it's horrible!

She glanced again at the darkness not far away, and though Kablam was gone, Silas knew that the sinister creature must be hiding somewhere, waiting to stab himself at the most critical moment. As for what he meant by "the spirit of cooperation as a member of the same organization," Silas wouldn't believe it unless he had a bad brain.

The Serpent appears to be an extremely cohesive organization, with members working closely together at the expense of their own interests in order to accomplish their tasks, but that doesn't mean they love each other. Whether it is an apostle or an executor, without negatively affecting himself, as long as he has the opportunity, he will definitely not hesitate to send a fatal blow to others!
