The tremors roared as loudly as countless rolling stones sliding down the angular slopes of the mountaintops.

This kind of loudness is not harsh to hear from the outside, but as if you are inside the "Rolling Stone", and there is a dull and echoing distortion when you listen to it.

Screams and howls filled the world, the former from panicked humans, and the latter from a newborn black bear monster.

However, apart from the sounds, most of the survivors in the Pharos royal capital couldn't see what was going on around them, because it was already pitch black.

There is no starry sky above, only the earth below, and the surrounding is a hazy "wall" with no specific face visible, as if they are in a closed world!

Standing in the palace at the top of a cliff, you can see sporadic fires lit in the collapsed city below, only to be extinguished soon after, just because the light will lure the already irascible monsters through.

However, the extreme darkness brings people unbearable fear.

So, despite the risks associated with igniting the light, the light was born one after another.

They have been abandoned by the light, but they still yearn for it, even at the cost of their lives...... You have a lot to do, Middleton. ”

An exclamation came from the window of the hall not far away, and it was not obvious under the tremor roar around him.

Yet the words still reached someone's ears with great clarity.

Middleton, who was looking at the outside world, had a gloomy expression on his face, which made it even more unsightly.

The archangel came, and she saw all the changes in the city before, but she couldn't do anything.

Because as the golden spear in her hand burst into light and gradually evolved into the giant sword, the palace beneath her feet had become part of the tip of the giant sword!

And this part is the closest part of this sealing place based on the whole city......

Unlike the outside, the air at the heart of the seal here is faintly filled with a web of twisted golden lines.

Not only did they keep Middleton from leaving the palace, but they also wiped out the soul of any intruder and turned them into unconscious vegetative beings.

Therefore, it can be said that the situation here is similar to before, only two black-haired girls are normal, and the rest of the people who remain in the palace are just live meat lying on the ground.

This is a trap that is even more vicious than his current body.

Or rather, it was entirely an enhanced variant of Middleton's trap of female body confinement at this time.

This mutated version of the imprisoned body is not composed of a single body, but is made up of countless human beings who pray sincerely.

"Based on the method I provided, with the scales of fate and the spear as the skeleton. Use your so-called conspiracy as a cover, and sacrifice a team of angels as a medium...... Nebourneer's arrival was ingenious enough. ”

Another exclamation came from a short distance, causing Middleton's fingers to clench unconsciously, but then she suddenly let go again.

"You knew the damn Archangel would use the Sleeping Feather to blind me?" She asked quietly with her head sideways, her tone calm, as if her mood had adjusted.

The so-called Sleeping Feather is a heavenly curiosity, and its function is as its name suggests, but it is not limited to making people sleep, it can also put a certain thought into a deep sleep—

The two demon kings converged, how could the heavenly kingdom in the clouds only send a team of angels without making other preparations?

Middleton should have considered this question, but she ignored it, because of course the thought was quietly asleep......

In Hell or something, Middleton couldn't have been so insensitive, but in the human world guided by the Covenant Church, her current body was clearly in conflict with her, and she didn't even react until now.

It's a pity it's too late.

The current situation has proved that the kingdom of heaven is not unprepared, they are very deadly and hidden enough. So lethal that when the right time appeared, it instantly gave her a decisive and swift lore.

"It's not just you who have been deceived, but I'm too."

Not far away, the aristocratic girl smiled and answered Middleton's previous question.

"What Nebornir wants is to seal us together, not to favor one over the other."

"I don't see you being blinded in the slightest."

Middleton narrowed his eyes and said, "I think you already have a way to get out of here?" ”

"Of course." Angelia nodded unabashedly.

"Maybe you can kindly tell me about this solution, this stupid wretched creature that you have ravaged at will?"

"I've already told you, but you didn't care."

Middleton was stunned for a moment, and then thought for a moment of their previous struggle with their souls.

Or rather, what the other side said in that struggle.

With the blood of the royal family as the medium, the oath of allegiance of the nobles as the channel, and the power of their lordship as the entrance, it is beyond the existing transcendent system.

Pipes, Inlets, Excess ......

She didn't have time to think about the secret method claimed by the other party at the time, but now that she thinks about it, it is obviously very connotative.

At the same time, Middleton thought of another sentence -

I didn't mean to eat you, and since I had given up the Throne of Pain, what reason was there to covet your fearful person......

It really makes sense to think about it, and with the calm appearance of this person who is currently sealed, Middleton immediately understood.

"So, everything you did before was just a show......"

Her tone was complicated, as if she was asking, but the guess had already been confirmed.

"It's not all a show."

Angelia smiled and said, "The spirits that have been bitten off you are still very replenished, and they have helped me a lot. ”

"Purpose? What are you doing this for? ”

"Of course, let Nebon Nir make this kind of big move."

Angelia said naturally: "It's not easy to get him hooked." ”

"What's the reason for that?"

Middleton couldn't understand this, "Is it just to make me more thorough?" ”

"If you have paid attention to the whole process of the ancient empire from its rise to its decline, you should understand that the destruction and division of the ancient empire is not just because of Emperor Ronan."

Angelia responded, "Of course, I don't think you usually pay attention to this kind of human history that you don't think is important, so you can assume that my purpose is to open a door, and Nebonir's move is an essential part of the opening ceremony."

"A door?"

"The world is balanced, Middleton, and when the sun sinks into the clouds, darkness will take its place."

Angelia's words made Middleton's face stunned, and then as if he had thought of something, a rare look of astonishment.

"You- open the door- you want to cross the Chaos Fortress and open the gates of Hell to the human world!?"

"How is this possible??"

"When you think it's impossible, I'm already doing it, and I'm about to succeed."

Angelia said lightly, "But it has nothing to do with you, Middleton, and you can only faintly hear faint echoes in the dark places here when the world is crawling and wailing at my feet. ”

As she spoke, her body twisted and softened, eventually collapsing into a pile of wriggling trumpet corpses that scattered in all directions, ignoring the golden lines that filled the hall here, and gradually dissipating into nothingness.

Middleton didn't care about the other party's departure, because she had expected it.

Or rather, she was still immersed in what Angelia had said before, her face was half-convinced, and faintly full of excitement, which seemed very strange.

However, not long after, under her strange gaze, the dense trumpet dried corpses actually ran back from the void in all directions, and reassembled into the appearance of a noble girl.

"Don't tell me you can't escape the restrictions here."

Some of the admiration that had just been born in his mind was suppressed, and Middleton sneered, "Then you will be one of the most laughable demon kings in history." ”

"I just suddenly came up with a better idea."

Angelia said without changing her face when she heard this, and then took out a sheepskin contract from her cuff and shook it off, "Sign it, and I will take you out of this seal." ”

"If you think you can use this to force me to sign a slave contract, then you're underestimating me—"

Middleton's words came to an abrupt halt, his eyes widening and his expression full of incredulity.

"Alliance!?"

"That's right, an alliance." Angelia nodded.

"After all this happened, you even dared to form an alliance with me!?"

"Although I also think this idea is a bit risky, but if you think about it, why not?"

Angelia muttered, "If this door is opened, will it be me who will benefit?" ”

Middleton didn't speak, his expression still glazed.

She was stunned by the other party's sudden change of thought, and even began to quickly think about whether there was any new trap in it.

However, when she thought about it, she could not think of where a covenant in the form of a contract could lay a trap.

However, there are no pitfalls here......

Although he didn't want to admit it, Middleton was already scared of the other party's traps one ring after another.

Therefore, even though she thought about it over and over again, and read the alliance contract again and again, she was still hesitant about it.

Gradually, however, the hesitation in her heart was finally defeated by the desire to leave here, and at the same time, she looked forward to the opening of the door that the other party was referring to.

So she ended up signing the contract.

It was like going through a difficult war, and Middleton even felt a little tired.

But when the ending had landed, she opened her mouth decisively.

"According to this covenant, you and I will not be able to do anything detrimental to each other's interests for the next hundred years, and my obligation is to cooperate with you in opening the gates of hell and obey your assignment accordingly, provided that this does not harm my fundamental interests."

"That's right."

"So now you should tell me how to open this door, right?"

"This needs to be kept secret for now, Middleton. However, there are contractual restrictions, and you don't have to fear that I will use you for anything other than that. ”

“…… Well, what do you need me to do next? ”

"First of all, the sea tribe side ......"

……

The dim candle shines on the desk that seems to be made of rough wood, and the delicate natural texture of its surface is shrouded in a trance like twisted earthworms, and above this group of "earthworms", a hazy mirage-like scene is quietly emerging.

The scene can be regarded as a first-person observation, and the subject is a dark-haired girl wearing a thin linen cloak with slightly bare shoulders and calves.

The dark-haired girl was listening intently to something at the moment, and the speaker was the master of this first-person perspective.

Bernie, who was sitting in a high-backed chair, was also listening silently.

Most of the time he remained silent about it, occasionally touching the rippling sight on his desk.

As a result, the words that come out of it always change slightly and inadvertently.

Eventually, when this first-person perspective appeared and distorted into countless low, small perspectives of dried corpses, Bernie leaned back in his chair with his upper body, which was the end of the remote command.

The scene on the desk slowly swirled and dissipated like a vortex, and finally there was no trace of it at all.

Bernie pondered.

Just as the dragon Claude realized that there were still some "soul residues" left in his original body after his reincarnation, he also had this kind of remnant after his previous reincarnation.

And the chess piece in the royal capital of Pharos is the product of these leftovers processed by him, and it is also attached to the black fog world, similar to those puppets, but the relationship is more direct and pure.

In a sense, she can be regarded as a doppelganger of Bernie, but this doppelganger has her own thoughts, thinking patterns and even personality.

Aside from a "manipulation backdoor", she is no different from a normal being.

However, in the end, she is not really an independent individual, or a little congenitally deficient, lacking some innovation in thinking, and will only implement the ideas and plans that were originally instilled in her, without too many changes.

Therefore, the alliance that should have been formed by the trend required Bernie to intervene himself.

However, this is an advantage in most cases.

Some things may need to be flexible and adaptable, but in some overall layouts, they need to be implemented gradually and honestly, for fear that things will develop into unexpected situations.

So for now, everything is fine.

It's just that although this chess piece has played the expected effect, it is still not enough to promote the change of the overall world pattern.

This requires the right time, place, people......

A huge map of black mist quietly appeared in front of you, with many points of light of different colors flickering on it, which was the distribution map of various forces and important people in this world.

This is intelligence information that Bernie had prepared before he was reincarnated, and it was perfect, but it was also flawed.

In other words, during this period, new chess pieces were born that could be used.

With a fingertip and a tap, Bernie added the player, the hidden pre-system, the dragon Claude, and the desert people under his command.

The first two were things he didn't expect before he was reincarnated, and the latter were things he thought about and gave up.

Now that it's put on the table, it's a little unmellow to match the ideas he once had, but as long as it is properly adjusted, it will eventually become a better help......

After watching quietly for a while, Bernie simulated a few more options for his next move, and then he was ready to exit the Black Mist World.

A lot of things can't be rushed, and he's sleepy at the moment.

Performing the reincarnation of the dragon was not an easy one for him, and one could even say a heavy burden.

So he was now desperate to get some sleep.

However, he didn't get enough sleep in the end, because shortly after he returned to reality, a special guest quietly visited.

A guest from the depths of the sea.
