Chapter 113: Roots
"Bang!"
One by one, the monsters pounced on the boat and were shot back into the water. At this time, on the surface of the lake, there was a fishy smell, and the corpse of the monster slowly lay on the surface of the water, which was particularly terrifying against the background of the moonlight.
There was a muffled sound, and everyone on the ship kept dealing with the monsters that pounced, and as the number of monsters increased, they finally couldn't resist it.
The middle-aged warrior with the big shield in his hand struck at the hideous monster in front of him, and the giant shield slapped on the monster, instantly breaking the monster's head to pieces.
Black thick plasma spurted out, and the middle-aged man subconsciously held a giant shield to block it.
Thick black slime sprayed on the shield surface, splattering in all directions. He didn't notice that some of the spilled slime was sprinkled on the companion beside him, but the warrior with the compass in his hand was busy dealing with the monster in front of him, and he didn't notice that a trace of black blood was sprinkled on the robe behind him.
Sticky black blood stains stuck to the man's robe, fleeting.
······
"I can't stand it!"
The palms of the third child holding the knife were numb, and his scalp was numb as he watched more and more monsters rush in.
The monster seemed endless, rushing towards the ship in waves.
After all, human physical strength is limited.
Just when everyone was a little unable to support it, the single warrior who was surrounded in the middle, and the formation pattern under his hand was finally carved.
"Boom—"
A dazzling essence flashed, and everyone only felt a burst of hot air hit behind them.
With a "swish", the burst of light intensified, and in a blink of an eye, it enveloped everyone.
Liuyun only felt a flash of bright light in front of him.
The screams and screams of the surrounding monsters all disappeared with the flash of light.
After the halo, there was silence for a long time.
Everyone slowly opened their eyes.
"This ······"
After the bright light, the scene flashed in front of them, and everyone exclaimed in surprise.
······
In the deep silence of the secret room, there are all kinds of treasures on display.
The Book of Judgments, precious treasures, and some of the Elders' Blood Letters.
This is the last inheritance of the Luo family.
Lu Yiren stood straight in front of a sealed mirror.
There were all kinds of runes vaguely engraved on the dusty mirror, and he stretched out his right hand and gently stroked it on the mirror. Lu Yiren's heartbeat accelerated a little.
Blood surges.
A scene in my memory suddenly emerged.
"Father. ”
At that time, Lu Yiren was still a teenager. The blood is strong, and the sharp aura lingers around the body. The delicate face is angular and flourishing.
There was a faint glimmer of light on his gorgeous clothes, and he raised his eyes, and his eyes were shining.
In front of Lu Yiren, a tall man stood with his hands in his hands.
The man's eyes were deep and sharp, and he was surrounded by an unstoppable and powerful aura like a king.
"If one day the whole clan declines, what will you do?"
"I will protect the whole family. This kind of thing will never happen. ”
Lu Yiren met that sharp gaze.
"Hopefully. ”
The man paused for a moment, looking at the bustling scene in front of him, and was silent for a short time.
Under the high city walls, there are all kinds of warriors guarding them, and they are highly disciplined. The sun is shining, and it is peaceful and prosperous.
"The roots of the Luo family, guard it for me. ”
"Promise me, Ikren. ”
Lu Yiren looked straight at the man, and the sun was shining at the corner of his mouth.
"I will, father. ”
A chuckle and a loud sound.
Lu Yiren slowly wiped the mirror covered with a layer of heavy dust in front of him.
But, later.
He personally promised a promise, which he did not fulfill. He turned his back on everything, including the entire Lo tribe.
The roots of the Luo family were also cut off by him with his own hands.
How did you get to where you are now?
Lu Yiren was a little stunned for a while.
It seems that everything has changed dramatically after the death of my father.
But what the difference is, he doesn't know.
All he knew was that his father was right. It always has been.
But on the road of survival, there are some rules that are cold and wrong.
So my father was unanimous by the elders and stripped of his title. He doesn't hate the elders.
I really don't hate.
It's just that he can't figure it out. Why is there such a big loophole under my father's system, why is my father in power so carefully managing everything in the Luo family during his reign, but there will be such a catastrophe, and in the end the entire Luo family will be implicated.
So he walked out of the walls. He wanted to figure it all out.
But I never thought that this departure would become a dead farewell.
The inexplicable death of his father, the disappearance of the clansmen one after another. In the end, only the elders who opposed their father remained.
And outside the city walls, he finally figured out why there were some loopholes under his father's rule.
It seems that everything has a reasonable explanation.
He thought about leaving.
But he once promised his father's promise, as well as the blood flowing in his flesh and bones, and Luo Yiren, the name.
He was not allowed to do so.
Although those people are crazy people who are reckless in their quest for power. But they were his people.
What's more, outside the city walls, there are thousands of warriors, all of whom belong to the people of his city.
Those were the people his father had spent his life trying to protect.
But my father was gone.
The people disappeared.
Even he was inexplicably saddled with the title of guilty. And thousands of his people under the walls took up their swords and spears, and pointed them at him.
He didn't understand. Why did the people whose father spent his whole life and finally used his life to protect finally point the tip of the knife at the father and at him.
Only Lingyun stood up for him. But only Lingyun lost the worst in this battle.
No, the worst should be him.
He looked at the Great Elder sitting on the throne in a daze.
The smile on the corner of the Great Elder's mouth stabbed him awake. At that moment, he understood that in the battle for power, only the last victor was a good person. At that moment, he was no longer a teenager.
So he severed the last link with the ridiculous family.
He doesn't do Luo Yiren anymore.
Luo Yiren is just a cold name, a puppet that hints at power. So he left.
This parting is many years.
He didn't show up in that campaign seven years ago. He knew that Luo Yiren's people had suffered countless casualties. He also knew that Luo Yiren's people were almost killed in battle.
But that has nothing to do with him anymore.
He is no longer Luo Yiren.
······
These memories have been sealed in the deepest part of his dark side. He did not pity the dead at all, just as the people did not pity him. He has no remorse.
At least he felt like he didn't.
However, when Elder Su said this, he became panicked.
Chaotic thoughts were like a tree rooted deep in his heart, nervously and fiercely absorbing his reason. His whole body trembled uncontrollably, and his right hand clung to the edge of the mirror.
"Boom—"
A flash of light.
