Background volume Extra. The beginning of the source I

The Kingdom of Cloudnights, an empire at the beginning of the New Territories. And the history of this country has been wiped out in one collapse after another.

A group of only a dozen people marched slowly through the barren land, and a large number of troops were chasing after them for several kilometers. Where are they going? In short, since it is a fugitive, it is naturally aimless.

A hundred years later, in the holy city of Seno, under the portrait of the martyrdom. Lying quietly was an ancient blackstone book, and the contents of the first page were handwritten. The details are as follows...

"I am a noble lady in the defeated Cloud Nightmare Empire. Even if they didn't have anything to do with the royal family, these people behind them still chased after our only dozen poor creatures for a long month. Looking at this situation, it seems that he still refuses to give up. There are pursuers behind him... The road ahead is unknown. In the somewhat deformed armored combat vehicle that was blown up, a young woman quickly wrote with a pen and paper.

"Miss, we have crossed the border of Yukilik. Front... There is no road ahead. The voice of an entourage was heard from outside the chariot.

The metal on the roof turns transparent, and there is a dark place in front of it. The sky, the earth, and the mountains and rocks are all wrapped in deep or shallow darkness, like an abyss of purgatory.

"Let's go, there is still a way until you die!" The young woman turned off the metal sensor on the roof, and the seemingly transparent roof turned back to a solid metallic color.

"In front of Miss is the Black Stone Domain, and none of the people who have entered it for thousands of years have survived." The attendant who accompanied him said nervously.

There was no echo in the car.

"Hey,... Keep going! The group disappeared into the darkness, and night fell. The already dark and strange realm is even more eerie.

Shimmering black stones cover every piece of the ground here, and there is nothing else here. There were only a dozen people who were endlessly tormented and feared and shrouded in the night.

"Uh... My head... Head... It's so faint..."One of the attendants dropped his luggage and fell to the ground with a final sound.

"Someone has fallen!" The rest of the attendants hurriedly stepped forward, and a strange scene occurred. I saw that the pupils of the man's eyes lost their luster at a speed visible to the naked eye, and finally the pitch-black pupils gradually turned white.

"What's going on? Is he dead? One of the attendants dropped their baggage in horror, and the team stopped.

"I can't stand it anymore, how far we have to go in this dark place. I'm going crazy, ah!! The other waiter also covered his head and shouted loudly, he didn't care about anything else, this mental torture was far more terrifying than the physical one.

Girls' Generation's monument got out of the car with a blank face. I couldn't see any emotion: "When I first came here, I thought that even if I died in this dark place, it would be better than dying under the butcher's knife of the vendetta." ”

The attendants did not speak, but looked at the stele with desperate eyes.

"Don't try to live. We died long the moment we stepped into this land. The dead let us keep going, keep going. Time? This kind of thing doesn't make sense as soon as you enter it. Let go of the baggage... Keep walking... Keep walking. The moment you die, the pain ends. After the stele was finished, he walked alone in front.

And these people were stunned for a moment and then slowly followed.

"Miss, wait for me." The previous entourage hurried to catch up with the monument in front of him, and walked behind her weakly.

Time passed imperceptibly, and there were already a few poor dozen people. Slowly, only two people remained.

The stele was walking in front of him, and behind him came the weak call of the entourage: "Miss, I can only accompany you here..."

Bei Nan stopped and looked back, but there was nothing. It's pitch black, pitch black...

She was the only one left, not eating or drinking. She was still walking, as if she was about to cross to the end of the abyss. But soon she was there, and the abyss was ahead. But there's another tree, no, something that looks like a tree and isn't a tree.

"Dead wood?" The stele looked at the huge and strange thing in front of him, which he had seen for a long time other than the black stone.

"There's an abyss ahead, and it seems that I really can't live." Unable to kneel on the ground due to exhaustion and weak legs, her upper body couldn't hold it anymore before she could kneel steadily. So he lay down straight.

The real horror of the Blackstone Domain is not only the power stones it possesses, but the only fear of it. There is no substance other than blackstone. No dust will even be raised when it falls.

The so-called dead wood is a huge and strange black thing, and it is difficult to call it because it has a strange luster and looks like dead wood.

After encountering the stele, a strange and empty voice suddenly appeared in his mind, and the cycle kept reverberating: "People have no heart, wood has spirits." People have no heart, wood has spirits! ...”

She couldn't understand the meaning of the words, or what the sound was coming from. In short, weird. However, it is not uncommon for a little weird thing to happen in such a strange place.

"Uhhhh Deadwood" is still there. I'm still alive.

She was incredulous, but it was a real thing.

Unable to stand up with her weak body, she carefully examined her body and the change she feared had not happened: "I'm still alive, and I'm here." ”

"Because of what?" It's hard to ask yourself.

The hollow voice in my head sounded again: "Because of me, sit with me in this lonely place for a while." ”

"You?" The stele is difficult to ask in the mind.

And at this moment, the "dead wood" in front of him suddenly moved, as if it had life.

And on the body of the tree, a jet-black energy flow suddenly appeared, and after a moment of slow circulation, it turned into the style of an ancient inscription in the New Territories. The texture tablets on the trees are difficult to see in ancient books. This script is probably the words of the beginning of the influx of humans in the New Territories.

She racked her brains as she rummaged through her mind over and over again for information about the text. Even if this word is a little familiar in memory, and the memory of flipping through the ancient book seems to be stuck. I can't remember it.

In my head, the hollow voice sounded again. But this time, with the prepared monument, it naturally doesn't feel so abrupt.

"I don't remember. That couldn't be better, I would love to have someone with me. All these years, huh. How many years has it been? The voice sounded, and the dead wood in front of him also moved slightly with the sound.

The stele sat cross-legged on the ground, and the black stone on the dead wood flowed wantonly. They can stretch far and back, but the stele has its eyes closed and seems to be trapped here for the rest of its life.

Time? Does this substance really exist in the Blackstone Domain? It was difficult for herself to ask herself, but she still wanted to remember the ancient inscription on the dead wood.

"Darkness... Lose... The meaning of life... Lonely and desperate. "Empty voices echo in my head, sometimes like echoing in the abyss in front of me.

"If you remember, I will inherit it all to you. Master the power of the Black Stone and lead the lost to the dawn! ”

......

I don't know what age it is, I don't know if it's winter, summer or spring and autumn. But I finally remembered it, and I remembered it abruptly, as if I had been in my heart for a long time.

Bei Nan opened his eyes and looked at the dead wood in front of him.

"That word, that word is called..."

"Ling!"

The words fell, and the dead wood in front of him instantly collapsed. Fragments of black stones fell to the ground, and countless undercurrents gushed out. Then he frantically swept into the body of the stele.

The stele felt an unusually frightened sense as the black stone was eating away at her. Whether it was her body or her originally weak thoughts, her thoughts were swallowed by the black stone. And she herself was surprised to find that she had mastered this energy, this thought that could destroy all beings. The power of the Origin Stone levitates her in the air.

"I... And so it became stronger..."The stele fell from the sky after enduring endless torture. The undercurrent that moves at will is like a part of her body, and it can be commanded at will. She's a little incredible.

Just as he was rejoicing, a young man's unique voice suddenly came from behind him.

"Hello, the monument is difficult!" The stele is difficult to turn around, it is the appearance of a person, but it is a somewhat illusory figure.

Bei Nan turned and looked at him. There are actually humans in the depths of this black stone?

"You are?" The stele is difficult to ask, and he looks a little vigilant.

The illusory figure smiled, and then looked at the stele gently. After a while, he said: "Thank you for your company during this time, the monument is difficult." ”

"Who the hell are you?" However, at the same time as he asked this, he still understood.

"Ling!"

Even the answer that should have been unsurprising, when he said it. The stele was still taken aback.

"Go, now that you have the power. Let this land of the dead be more alive, the Blackstone Domain should not be what it is now. Save those who are desperate and let them also live in the brightest way by the darkest forces. The semi-nihilistic lattice walked towards the abyss not far away.

Behind him, he asked, "Where are you going?" ”

"The Dark Domain, now that I've broken free. I have to go outside the New Territories and see if I have the opportunity in the future. You can also come to me, the monument is difficult. But don't tell anyone about me, not even those closest to you. "The illusory mullions disappeared into the abyss, but it is not known whether the end is the abyss.

Bei Nan looked at the vanishing back of the illusory boy, and swore in his heart, "I will come to you, Ling." After completing what you have explained. ”

On the continent of the New Territories, a mysterious city has been quietly established. A woman named the city Senor, and its guardians were all people who should have died. People who try to save the world often can't save themselves.
