Located in the very center of the Miracle Continent, almost at the junction of the elves and the human race at the northwest end, there is an inland sea called the "Crimson Sea", and the sea is surrounded by a powerful barrier all year round. No matter how powerful a person is, as long as he steps into the range of the enchantment, he will lose his strength, even the god-level powerhouse will not be an exception.

On the "Scarlet Sea", there is also a land called "Land of the Gods", which is the pilgrimage place of all believers in the gods of the Miracle Continent, and countless believers come to this place every year to witness the miracles in order to witness the miracles with their own eyes, and even risk their lives to come to this place to witness the miracles.

The "Land of the Gods" is further divided into two areas, the Land of Aurora and the Land of Parde, the former being an open area where pilgrims pay homage to the gods. The latter is the forbidden area of the gods, where in the deepest part there is a huge stone pillar standing between heaven and earth.

The stone pillar is the only bridge connecting the miracle continent and the world where the gods live, so it is also called the "Heavenly Pillar", located in the outer world of this "Heavenly Pillar" 100,000 meters above the ground, which is exactly the divine domain where the gods live, and is called the "Heavenly Pillar Forbidden Land" by people.

According to the epic records handed down by the troubadours, the Heavenly Pillar Forbidden Land is a huge extraterrestrial space, built by the great chaos god himself, leading the gods to inhabit it, in order to facilitate the observation and rule of the entire miracle continent.

At this time, in the depths of a huge temple in the Heavenly Pillar Forbidden Land, a slender figure sitting on a black stone chair suddenly trembled slightly.

"Tick!"

A drop of golden blood trickled from the corner of the figure's mouth and dripped to the ground, making a crisp sound in the empty temple.

"Heslida, you're hurt?"

A cold voice came from outside the temple. With the sound of footsteps. A black shadow did not know when it appeared on the temple. Right in front of the slender figure sitting on the black stone chair.

"Jean, why are you here?"

The figure sitting on the black stone chair wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, then slowly raised his head, and through the soft light cast from outside the temple, a suffocatingly delicate face emerged from the shadows.

This beautiful "woman" is the god of death Heslida, who has just been possessed by Guò Divine Thoughts and fought with Ruan Chi.

"I feel that your divine thoughts have descended on the Nether, so I came to see the situation. But looking at you now, you should have suffered a loss, right? The cold voice continued.

"It's a little bit of a loss, and the guide's mind is a little damaged, but it's not in the way." Standing up from the cold blackstone chair, Heslida said in a calm tone.

"Although the Nether Realm will weaken our abilities by using the Divine Mind Possession, but the people who can hurt you, in the Nether, except for the seven agents elected by Lord Gaia, there should be no one who can make you suffer, I'm really curious. Who hurt you? ”

"It's none of your business."

"Heslida, you should be clear. You don't have any reporting in the lower realm this time, our gods in the Heavenly Pillar Forbidden Land have not been in the lower realm for many years, you violated the rules in the lower realm without reporting this time, once this matter is known to Lord Gaia, even if you are the god of death, you will be severely punished.

"Is this a threat?"

"No, I didn't mean that, I'm just advising you, Heslida, no matter what, I'm one of the three gods of destiny like you, and I think we should be united with each other."

“……”

Inside the temple, Heslida's voice suddenly fell silent, and the other party didn't seem to have any intention of continuing to speak, or that he was waiting for something.

Long.

Heslida's voice sounded again, her voice still very calm, no joy or sorrow, "I see, Jean, you go and call Leo, maybe we should sit down and talk." ”

"I'm glad to hear you say that, I'm going to inform Leo." The cold voice spoke, and a sound of footsteps sounded, and in a few moments, the owner of the voice had disappeared into the temple.

Watching the other party leave, Heslida's delicate face had a blank expression, and she couldn't tell what she was thinking.

……

Betty cried for a while, but finally calmed down, because she had been taken away in the middle of the night last night, and after so much fright, Betty soon fell asleep in Herlan's arms.

"That necromancer named Marston was really defeated by you?" After seeing Betty asleep, Rachel spoke out the doubts in her mind.

"yes, it's too dead to die." Ruan Chi shrugged.

"How is it possible, that guy has summoned the possession of the gods of the heavenly realm, have you even defeated the gods?" Rachel said in disbelief.

"The gods are nothing at all, and the other party is just a doppelganger possessed by a god, brother is a little more serious, and he can also explode her chrysanthemum." Ruan Chi bragged.

In fact, the strength of Heslida at that time was not as terrifying as everyone imagined, except for the attack power was particularly good, other attributes were mediocre.

It can be said that Heslida's strength was completely dragged down by Marston's body, and Ruan Chi estimated a little at that time that Heslida's strength at that time was probably about the middle level of the god level, and it was not impossible to defeat.

"No kidding, no matter what, the other party is a god in the sky, and as far as I know, the Mother of Darkness summoned by Marston is the god of death, one of the three gods of fate, and her ranking among the gods is not low, you killed her doppelganger, have you ever thought about the consequences?" Rachel said with a stern face.

Ruan Chi naturally heard that Rachel was worried about himself, and his heart couldn't help but warm, and then said, "Where can you think about the consequences in that situation at that time." ”

Rachel was speechless, Ruan Chi's words she didn't know, the situation just now, there seemed to be no solution except for resistance.

Although at the cost of this, they may offend a god in the future.

As a native of the Miracle Continent, Rachel knew the horrors of the gods all too well, and she never imagined that she would be fighting the kind of gods that would only appear in troubadour's epics today.

This kind of behavior is in the eyes of most people on the mainland. It is undoubtedly tantamount to blasphemy.

As soon as I think of this. Rachel couldn't help but have a headache. I couldn't help but have a worried look on my face.

"Don't worry, I'm in charge of everything, even if the gods in the sky come down, I will beat them all away." Ruan Chi put his arm around Rachel's slender waist and comforted.

"You, don't talk nonsense in the future, just don't cause trouble." Rachel gave Ruan Chi a strange look, then leaned her head lightly on his chest.

After a short break, Ruan Chi next contacted Deep Blue.

Tong guò navy. Jialan and An Peiqi were quickly recovered, and their injuries were more severe, and Ruan Chi first asked Rachel to give them a simple treatment.

Two hours later, Jialan and Ampeggy's injuries stabilized, and Rachel took a little more time to recover her magic, and by the time they were settled, the sky was slightly white, and the long night was finally over.

Waking up Betty and Herlan, who were asleep on their laps, Ruan Chi also stood up and stretched.

Walking in front of Rachel, Ruan Chi wiped the fragrant sweat on her forehead and continued. "Let's go, let's go back to Dream Town now."

Everything was settled. Ruan Chi proposed to leave for home immediately, but at this time, Rachel shook her head and said, "No, we still have to go back to the Adagas grassland." ”

"Where are you going back and what are you doing?" Ruan Chi asked.

"Fool, I promised Sister Orfina to escort those refugees to safety, how could I leave things behind halfway through."

"Are you serious? This woman is now my captive, so there's no need to keep the promise, right? Ruan Chi pointed to Sister Ofina, who was standing not far away and was standing by the dark blue control.

"No matter what you do with Sister Orfina in the end, my agreement with Sister Orfina will not change." Rachel said sternly.

"Well, my Leil, you're a promiser." Ruan Chi helped his forehead, knowing that he couldn't do anything about the woman in front of him.

Forget it, let's make it a side quest.

Although they received simple treatment, An Peiqi had not woken up for the time being, and the mental power jump could not be used, so Ruan Chi and the others had to walk back with their feet.

Luckily, this place is not far from the Idagas grassland, and it takes about half a day to catch up with the refugees from Saipan.

Ruan Chi carried Ampeggy on his back, Rachel was in charge of the lighter Jialan, and then took Betty and Herlan with them, and the six of them went back and forth along the road.

Half a day passed.

Before the sun had risen to its highest, the group finally returned to the Idagas steppe, but by the time they returned to the refugee camp, it was a mess.

"It's all said, they can't stay there forever, and it's estimated that they will arrive in Normanden City long ago." Ruan Chi dug his ears and said lazily.

Leaving the Jialan on her back to Herlan to take care of, Rachel didn't care about Ruan Chi's words, but walked straight around the camp, and when she came back, she said with a solemn face, "No, they evacuated in a very hurry. ”

"Sister Rachel, do you mean they're in danger?" Betty asked.

"It is very likely, you see, there are still a lot of leftover daily necessities on the ground, and it is estimated that the situation was urgent at that time, and everyone did not have time to clean up."

"But what caused them to evacuate so suddenly?" Herlan also asked puzzled.

"I don't know, but based on my experience, I guess there should have been an emergency, and it seems that they evacuated last night."

"Last night?"

"You see, the ashes on the ground have completely cooled, which means that they have been away for a long time, otherwise under normal circumstances, if everyone evacuates in the morning, the ashes should still have residual warmth." Rachel pointed to a pile of burnt ashes on the ground.

"Lei'er, I find it a waste for you not to be a detective." Ruan Chi suddenly laughed.

"I used to be the patrol leader of the village, and I am very familiar with this basic reconnaissance technique." Rachel said lightly.

"After you reminded me of this, I suddenly remembered a very heavy matter." Ruan Chi's expression changed, and he suddenly said in a heavy tone.

"What's the matter?"

"Marston told me last night that he sent an army of zombies to outflank the refugees."

"......," Rachel was stunned for a few seconds, and then said angrily, "Why are you telling me about such an important matter now?" ”

"Didn't I forget it?" Ruan Chi said as a matter of course.

Rachel stomped her foot and walked away.

"Leil, where are you going?" Ruan Chi thought she was angry and hurriedly chased after her.

"Nonsense, of course to save people." Rachel didn't look back.

"Really, is it necessary to be in such a hurry?" Looking at Rachel's figure getting farther and farther away, Ruan Chi couldn't help but smile bitterly.

Although it was said that she was going to save people, Rachel didn't know where the refugees from Saipan City were retreating, but it was not too difficult for the elven swordswoman born on the patrol to detect it.

There are more than 100,000 refugees who have escaped from Saipan this time, and such a huge number will inevitably leave obvious footprints on the road when they are evacuated.

"Strange, how did you go west?"

Following those footprints, Rachel ran wildly for a distance of three or four thousand meters, and at this time, Ruan Chi took Herlan and Betty to catch up.

"Why did you stop again, didn't you rush to save people?" Seeing where Rachel was standing, Ruan Chi asked strangely.

"The departure of the refugees to the west after the evacuation is not the right direction." Rachel said in a deep voice.

"No, what's wrong?"

"Have you forgotten? Normanden City is in the north, and even if a zombie army is found, the soldiers of the Bostan Kingdom who led the evacuation of the refugees will not be able to change the escape route at will, which must be strange. ”

"The smell of blood!" Betty, who was walking behind Herlan, suddenly shrugged her nose and exclaimed.

As a child of the curse of orc-human hybrids, her sense of smell is a little more sensitive than that of ordinary people, and after experiencing this period of combat herself, she has become extremely sensitive to the smell of blood, and as soon as Rachel finished speaking, she smelled blood wafting in the air as she approached the valley.

After about a few minutes, a large grassland appeared in front of the group of people who continued to advance, and unlike the original emerald green grassland of the Adagas grassland, the grass in front of them was dyed a blood-red color.

What catches your eye is all stumps, why do you say that stumps are not corpses, because none of this corpses are intact at all, most of them only have one foot, or half a hand, and the most complete is only half of the body, or the lower half of the body.

As soon as they stepped into the grassland, including Ruan Chi, everyone couldn't help but feel a tightness in their chests, and they were inexplicably uncomfortable.

Walking along the road, there was a pile of refugee bones, the flesh was eaten cleanly, the hard skulls were crushed, and the brains were devoured.

Yes.

The remains of these refugees were eaten to the bone, and presumably only in this way would they not be infected by the corpse poison and turned into zombies after they died.

In addition to the corpses of the refugees, there are also a number of soldiers of the Kingdom of Bostin, who seem to have been killed after stubborn resistance, but unfortunately, in the end, they are still unable to defeat the zombie army.

Not far out of the grassland is a small stream.

Next to the stream, Ruan Chi and the others unexpectedly found the corpses of more soldiers of the Bostan Kingdom.

"There's a fight ahead!"

At this time, the elf's amazing ear power came into play, and Rachel suddenly ran along the stream, pulling her legs in one direction.

Ruan Chi thought about it for a while, and ordered Betty Heran to stay and take care of Jialan and Ampeiqi, who were not yet well, and then took Sister Orfina, who was controlled by Deep Blue, to chase in the direction that Rachel left. (To be continued......)
