"How long?" a voice rang out in the darkness.

No one answered.

I heard only a clicking sound, as if something was waving, and the sound of the wind sounded in the darkness. After a few moments, there was more noise, and with a constant click, the ground began to shake.

"Long Qi, Long Jiu," the previous voice sounded again, with a hint of annoyance, "Damn, I know you're all awake!"

Two pairs of red and blue flames lit up in the void.

And between these two pairs of ghostly fires dozens of meters apart, winding filaments of light also emerged accompanied by countless starlight. The filaments of light are entangled, more and more, and the light is getting stronger and stronger. Finally, the light dispelled the darkness and illuminated the whole place.

It is a huge palace.

The filament of light that illuminates the palace comes from a cube engraved with a magic pattern circle in the middle of the palace.

The cube is suspended in mid-air, and below it is a circular platform. The high platform is inscribed with intricate magic patterns. Colorful light is extending in all directions of the palace along the lines of the magic pattern. Climbed the walls, lit up the dome, and bathed the whole palace in light, which was beautiful.

And in the three directions of this high platform, the three bone dragons had already revealed their huge and hideous bodies in the light.

Around their necks, a silver chain carved with a demon pattern is attached. The other end of the chain is fixed to a circular platform.

It was one of the bone dragons who spoke just now.

It was a bone dragon with a white body and black wings. Its bone frame was noticeably thicker than that of the other two bone dragons. However, it doesn't make it look tall. It looks a bit chubby because of its shorter legs and smaller wings.

Those two pairs of ghost fires are the eyes of the other two bone dragons. Now. They were moving, and the clattering sound and wind came from their somewhat stiff bones and flapping wings.

After moving for a while, the red bone dragon on the left turned its head to look at the fat bone dragon, with a hint of playfulness on his face.

"Ryuba, you won't forget the bet we made before we went to sleep, right?"

"Of course not. The fat bone dragon looked humiliated and shouted, "When will I bet on paying the bill? Five hundred years, no, a thousand years, yes, I bet on a thousand years!"

"Look," the red bone dragon shrugged, "I knew you were going to cheat." But it's a pity. Even if you add five hundred years, you still lose. This time we slept for exactly 2,200 years!"

"Two thousand two hundred years?" the fat bone dragon jumped, "has it been so long?"

It screamed, turning its head to look at the bone dragon on its right, "Long Jiu, it didn't lie to me?"

Long Jiu was a pitch-black bone dragon, much smaller than its two companions, but the bones were pitch-black and glowing with metallic luster. Makes it look more fierce and fierce.

"Two thousand two hundred and seventy-eight years, to be exact. Long Jiu said lightly. Finally. It stared at the Fat Bone Dragon and said expressionlessly, "You lost." ”

After being confirmed, Long Ba covered his face with his paws in frustration.

"All right," it said resignedly, opening its mouth to spit out two gold coins. With a painful face, he threw at Long Qi and Long Jiu: "Take it, you two damn bastards." Sooner or later, I'll win it back. ”

Two bone dragons catch the gold coin.

Long Qi whistled proudly and looked at it over and over again. Long Jiu threw the gold coin, opened his mouth, and swallowed it.

Ryupachi swayed his massive body. Angrily, he walked towards the round platform in the center of the palace.

"More than two thousand years! Alright, well, let's see what kind of goods that damn sycophants have taken so long to bring back. Don't be like last time, you can't even get past the fourth floor!"

On the high platform, it waved its wings.

The magic pattern circle on the high platform began to change. Wisps of swimming magical light tore through the space like tentacles, revealing a black void.

In the midst of this black nothingness, a scene gradually emerged—snow-white peaks standing in the center of a basin surrounded by mountains. Below the peak, is an isolated island surrounded by lava rivers. And beyond the island, there is a huge defensive circle divided into forty-nine sections.

"Hey, I don't know which unlucky guy at the bottom of the abyss died," Ryuba looked at the magic array and grinned, "This time the magic tower's energy replenishment speed is quite fast. ”

Long Qi and Long Jiu also went to the high platform. They stared at the magic array, silently waiting.

Soon, the picture changed.

A huge rotunda appears in front of you. And in the hall, there was already a chaotic scene. Statues of skeleton guards are frantically besieging a black-haired youth.

"Smack!"

Seeing this scene, Ryupachi's jawbone fell directly to the floor. Long Qi and Long Jiu on the side were also dumbfounded.

"One...... Human Knight?" Ryupachi jumped to his feet, shouting in disbelief and anger, "Still a rookie with only eight battle rings!"

Its fat body rushed to the staircase on the left side of the palace, and screamed, "That damn sycophant, little reptile, disgrace to the dragons, it took two thousand years to bring back such a thing." I'm going to kill it. No, I'm going to shred it up and turn it into a pile of ......"

Before the words fell, the chains had reached the end, and they suddenly straightened. Long Ba's sprinting body, like a kite that was pulled up, soared into the air, and then slammed into the ground with a loud bang, smashing its last words directly back into his stomach.

Long Ba lay dizzy for a while before coughing a few times and struggling to stand up.

It looked down at the chains around its neck, the expression on its face was unusually depressed, and it stood motionless, its back looking lonely and lonely.

The palace was silent, and the other two bone dragons looked at it silently, and the soul fire in their eyes became dim.

No one cared about the fight of the brunette youth. When I saw the eight battle rings, everything didn't matter anymore.

"Perhaps......" Long Qi turned his head sadly, his huge body, made a clicking sound, jumped off the high platform, and slowly walked towards the place where he had been, "We should continue to sleep." ”

"Sleep?" Ryupachi turned his back to them. He said in a low voice, "It has been more than six thousand years since His Majesty left, how long will we sleep?"

It turned its head slowly, "When will the next time it be, three thousand years." Four thousand years, ten thousand years?"

Long Qi sighed, lay down on the ground like a tired dog, curled up, hid his head under his wings, and said quietly, "Wait a little longer." Maybe next time, the person we're waiting for will come. ”

Long Ba opened his mouth, wanting to say something, but finally gave up in despair. It shook its head. Slowly walk towards your place.

However, at this moment, the black bone dragon that had been staring at the demonic array on the circular high platform suddenly said, "No! What's going on?"

Ryuba turned his head. Long Qi also straightened his long neck. In their memories, the cold Long Jiu had never been so surprised.

Long Jiu said solemnly, "I think, you should come over and take a look at this." ”

The two bone dragons glanced at each other in surprise, and they both quickly returned to the circular high platform. And when they saw the scene in the black nothingness, they were immediately petrified.

I saw it in a dilapidated garden. Countless demons are battling hundreds of human mercenaries.

Judging by the situation, the demon clearly has the upper hand. There are more of them. And organizationally, it also has an advantage in the terrain. Humans don't know why, they are very fragmented, and they can only fight in groups of three or five. From time to time, someone falls under the claws of the devil.

Long Jiu flicked his wings, and the picture focused on the altar in the middle of the garden.

When I saw the blood in the altar's blood pool, the passage in the air grew bigger and bigger. And when there was the red demon, the faces of the bone dragons became a little strange.

Ryupachi said in disbelief, "Isn't this the Garden ......of Death? How did these demons get in? And these humans, how could so many people find out here?"

Three bone dragons, you look at me, I look at you. After a moment, they shouted in unison, "Blood Sacrifice Passage!"

"Wow," as if seeing something funny, Long Qi became excited, whistled, and brought his huge head closer to the magic pattern circle, and said with great interest, "This is interesting! Hey, you say, can they succeed this time? I remember last time these guys were driven back." ”

"Success? Didn't these guys get beaten up last time? After so many years, with the intelligent brains and reproductive ability of human beings, I don't know how many strong people have emerged. It's not very good for them to want to play this game again. Ryupachi gloated, "However, it would be fun for them to cause some trouble to those monkeys." Hahahaha, this time we watched a play, and we didn't wake up once. ”

As he spoke, it waved its wings and changed the magic pattern circle.

"Come on, let me see what the hell is going on. You mean, these humans can't be brought by the sycophants, right?"

The picture of the magic pattern circle went back to a dozen prayer hours ago.

The white peak, which had just risen from the ground, stood alone in the middle of the basin, and there was silence all around. Occasionally, a few abyssal beasts and demons roamed around the mountain peaks. One of the abyssal wildebeest even walked leisurely across the stone bridge and into the island garden.

The bone dragons were not surprised by this.

They all knew that when it first rose, it was when the relic was at its weakest.

Hidden for a long time, the Guardian Array can only maintain a small range. Except for the interior of the ruins, nothing else will be activated. Only after absorbing the essence emitted by the powerful beings who died at the bottom of the abyss and accumulating to a certain level will the ruins' guardian array be fully activated. After this period of time, the ruins will sink into the ground again until the next cycle.

Of course, this doesn't mean that anyone can break into the ruins. Unless someone is chosen by a certain guy, even the powerhouses of the Holy Realm will not be able to escape the attack of the Guardian Array.

However, at this moment, suddenly, in the distant sky, a red figure flew over.

It starts with a small dot and then gets bigger and bigger. And behind it, on the abyssal earth below it, was an overwhelming tide of demons.

"It's that guy. "Dragon Seven Dao.

They recognized it at a glance, and the red demon flying in was the same one on the altar.

The red demon flew directly over the stone bridge and landed in front of the gate of the ruins. It roared. The demon behind him rushed up the steps like a tidal wave and pounced on the gate.

The Guardian Circle is triggered.

Countless red clusters of light flew out, enveloping the demons one by one.

Looking down from the sky, the black demon group and the rapid red light were like two convective rivers, constantly colliding together.

The red light broke, and the demon vanished.

Just like a contest between water and fire, after half a prayer, the gate of the ruins stopped releasing red light, and the tide-like demons completely evaporated.

The last one to disappear was the red demon. It almost took the initiative to meet a cloud of red light, and let the light take it away without resistance.

The three bone dragons looked at each other in surprise and continued to look curiously.

After a few hours of prayer, the first human mercenaries arrived at the foot of the mountain. And at this time, the Guardian Array, which had accumulated enough energy, had already been activated.

As time passed, more and more human mercenaries gathered.

"The strength of these guys doesn't seem to be very good, huh?" When he saw the mercenaries joining forces to attack the magic wall, Long Ba pouted in some confusion, "Didn't their strong men come?

"With this attack power, you want to break through Your Majesty's magic wall?" Long Qi snorted disdainfully.

Continuing to look, the mages in the human world began to study the magic wall. However, the difficulty of the magic wall was clearly beyond the level of their magic pattern. I studied it for a long time, but I was helpless.

And at this time, a group of people appeared.

"It's the kid. Long Qi recognized at a glance the young knight in the crowd who was besieged by the statue of the Skeleton Guardian in the rotunda at this moment.

To their surprise, in the end, it was this kid who cracked the magic wall.

They then watched as all the mercenaries were captured by the red light, watched as the black-haired youth walked alone towards the gate, and then cracked the hallway mechanism by summoning the undead warrior to the thunder.

The picture returns to the Garden of Death.

The fight continues.

Human mercenaries, like prey hunted and killed, are running in all directions. The red demon was still standing calmly on the altar. The blood pool in front of it was getting more and more. And the space passage that was torn apart in the air is getting bigger and bigger.

The three bone dragons all looked at each other, and the expressions on their faces were indescribably strange.

"Clearly, these monkeys have fallen into a trap. "Long Qi is definitely authentic.

Long Jiu frowned, "That cunning lump. It actually used our place to lay traps. The blood of these more than 600 human knights is enough to open the blood sacrifice channel. ”

In the silence, Long Ba's eyes turned, and he smashed, smashed, and said, "So, that kid is the only one left who can save them?"

They glanced at each other, quickly turned their heads to look at the magic circle, and switched to the rotunda that they didn't care about before...... (To be continued......)
