"Imperial? No way! I am a descendant of the Holy Blood. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 info" Hitomi's eyes widened in amazement.

Qianye had already thought clearly, and said slowly: "Eternal Night is not the territory of the Empire, we do not go to the core of the Terran occupied area, and only live on the border. There are a lot of half-bloods here, and there are also Terrans with the power of the Dark Force, as long as you hide your blood and don't go all out, no one should be able to see that you are a blood clan. ”

"If you don't fight, what do I do every day?"

Qianye looked into the eyes of the night pupil and said with a smile: "I'll go to fight, you're at home, just wait for me to come back." ”

"But......" Night Hitomi wanted to argue, but when she saw Qianye's gaze and listened to such words, she felt like she was going to melt, and she couldn't say anything.

She buried her face in Qianye's chest and whispered, "There are no eternal secrets in the world, have you thought about it, one day my identity will be discovered, and it will affect you at that time." ”

"If it is discovered, I will take you further, the world is so big, twenty-seven continents, there is always a place where we can live. ”

The night pupil didn't speak for a while, and after a while, she said softly with longing, "What kind of life?"

Qianye smiled and asked, "Do you know how to cook and do laundry?"

Night Hitomi thought about it seriously and said uncertainly, "Most of our food tastes pretty much the same, right?"

Qianye laughed, and the night pupil came back to her senses and poked Qianye hard.

Qianye tightened her arms, lowered her head and kissed her forehead, and said word by word, "I will definitely be able to protect you." ”

"Well, I believe you. ”

The two hugged each other for a few more moments, and then one after the other, finding their way up, preparing to leave this underground cave world.

From time to time, there were violent Force fluctuations from the deeper beneath his feet, and sometimes even the entire cave passage was shaking, and it was clear that there was a truly strong man fighting with all his might. Where there are fierce battles, there is one thing in common, as if there is some kind of large, obscure will beckoning. Qianye had seen the ancient essence break in the Heavenly Ghost War, and knew very well that this was the breath of the essence fragment.

At this moment, he pinched a cold sweat and realized that the luck of himself and Yetong just now was really good enough.

The fragment of the ancient essence they encountered was not activated all the time for some reason, and the breath was not far away, so except for Xu Lang, who should have happened to be nearby, it did not alarm anyone else. Otherwise, looking at the momentum of those battles in the depths of the cave at the moment, even if the two of them are in their heyday and join forces to fight, there is not much chance of success.

Both Thousand Nights and Night Pupils have the ability to lurk blood, constricting their breath along the way, and passing through the territory of several fierce beasts without danger. Even if they happened to encounter a few powerhouses of the Eternal Night and the Empire, the other party was eager to go into the depths to participate in the battle, and they didn't feel that they were carrying anything special, and finally the two sides passed by without incident.

They returned much faster than they had come, and it was not until they approached the ground that they encountered some natives and beasts that had slipped through the nets in the outer passages, which was a no-brainer for Thousand Nights and Night Pupils, and finally they left the mountain range where the bones of the ancient void beasts were formed on a night where they could see the moon.

The strange forest still seemed to be silent, and the purple-black substrate on the ground was no different from when it came, a little soft to step on, but just like that, there was no other abnormal reaction.

However, both Qianye and Night Pupil knew that this was just an illusion, and under the purple matrix, I don't know how many bones were turned into nutrients and fused into part of the purple matrix.

Qianye and Night Pupil kept a distance of 100 meters from each other, constantly moving forward alternately. At this distance, the two can ensure that they are in each other's field of vision, and they can detect the enemy in advance under the suppression of the dense fog in the forest. Most of the opponents will only be able to see one of them, so that the other can deliver a fatal blow from the side.

As Qianye walked ahead, he suddenly looked up and looked at a giant tree in the distance. The spherical canopy is broken here and there, and some of it has grown, but there are still many beehives with their mouths open, and the contents of the nest are gone.

He glanced back at Nightpupil, both thinking of the tide of natives and beasts that suddenly came from behind him halfway through. If you look at this forest again, there is a lot more weirdness and gloom out of thin air.

However, although the atmosphere of the Misty Forest was oppressive, the road was very calm, and there were no more fierce natives, and occasionally a few search teams of Eternal Night and the Empire were also relatively low-level, and they all bypassed safely and soundly at the distance of vision of Thousand Nights and Night Pupils. Qianye also recognized two children of the small family who had dealt with the vassal Zhao Valve, and got some of the latest movements of the two camps from them.

A few days later, they were walking through the forest and out of the stone forest. Qianye climbed to a high place and looked in all directions, and three flags immediately appeared in his field of vision. Two of them are the flags of the Council of the Eternal Night, and one is the flag of the Empire. Under each banner, a base was built accordingly, and although Qianye had already learned the news, he was still surprised to see the stretch of fortifications that appeared in front of him in a short period of time.

It turned out that there was indeed a void passage in the depths of the Sleep of the Giant Beast on the Eternal Night Continent, but because this heaven and earth itself was a flying land in the void, the void passage was equivalent to one-way, except for the Heavenly King and the Great King, it was impossible for other strong people to return with their individual strength.

Therefore, after figuring out the characteristics of the space, the two camps began to build bases centered on the Giant Beast Bone Mountain Range. Construction work is still in full swing on both sides, and the Eternal Night side has maintained a two-fold advantage in size compared to the Empire.

After looking at the surroundings, Qianye found a hidden place, took out clothes from the Aduria space, and asked the night pupil to change her outfit. Hitomi wore a samurai costume common to the followers of the High Door family, and along with the swords and spears, they were all replaced with imperial weapons, and a hooded cloak was worn over them.

Her arms and thighs were covered with bandages that could faintly show blood, and her face was bandaged in two places, and when she pulled down the dust-proof mask, she only showed black hair and dark eyes, which were the most common hair and eye colors in the Empire.

The base that had been built and raised the flag looked a little deserted compared to the fortifications that were being built next to it, with dozens of Imperial soldiers lining up in front of the gate and several high-speed floating warships on the take-off and landing fields behind.

When Qianye and Night Hitomi approached, the originally lazy soldiers at the entrance of the base suddenly became alert, pointed their guns at the two of them, and the multi-barreled machine guns on the turrets on both sides of the base gate also turned around.

"Stop!" shouted the guard from afar.

Qianye took out the identification card issued by the military department before leaving, and pointed to the Yanyun Iron Cavalry badge on his shoulder, and said, "Zhao Valve, Qianye." ”

These days, after the completion of the imperial base, many strong people scattered in the stone forest and misty forest have been collected one after another, some are injured and can no longer participate in the battle, and some are not strong enough, and after entering the underground cave, they have not gone far and then quit on their own.

Therefore, it was not surprising for the guards to see the two of them, and while taking the identification plate of Qianye and the emblem of Zhao Valve for inspection, they asked casually: "Does the Prince of Thousand Nights plan to return directly, or wait until all of your Zhao Valve's team is gathered before leaving?"

Qianye said, "The mission is complete, and I was injured again, so I am ready to return early." ”

Hearing that the mission was completed, the guards' faces changed, but no one asked anything more. That sentence "mission completed" is not something that can be said casually, for Qianye and them, who are strong people who have accepted the Empire's conscription to enter the sleep of giant beasts, the so-called mission completion refers to obtaining the ancient essence fragments, and the other is to kill the heavenly ghost clone. Either one is a great military achievement, top secret.

They were guarding here, and of course they had received the most severe orders, so the guard quickly checked the sign and badge, and said, "General Hu is in charge of this matter, you can go and see him directly." With that, the guard looked at the night pupil behind Qianye and asked, "This is your entourage?"

Qianye nodded and said, "Yes." He said quietly: "Is there anyone else in Zhao Valve who has already come out?"

The guard replied: "When the base was first built a few days ago, Grand Prince Zhao brought a few followers to make supplies, and then went in again. ”

Zhao Dagongzi is Zhao Junyi, the eldest of the four Zhao brothers, and he heard Youguo Gong mention it before Qianye came, and he and Zhao Jundu went to the Sleep of Giant Beasts together. It seems that Zhao Junyi did not go deep into the cave world, or did not enter it at all, but stayed outside and broke the back.

Qianye breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, obviously Zhao Valve's people were not blindly competitive, and they acted quite strategically. Although he didn't have any news of Zhao Jundu along the way, but at this moment, when he learned that Zhao Valu had such a division of labor, then Zhao Jundu should be fine.

The guards returned the identification card with both hands, and assigned one person to take him and the night pupil to meet the base director.

It was a major general surnamed Hu of the main army of the empire, who spoke and acted quite politely, and the procedures were handled quickly. Of course, he knew that people like Qianye on the conscription list were all momentarily handsome, and since he came out alive, he would definitely have an unlimited future in the future, so he naturally didn't want to leave any bad impressions.

An hour later, a high-speed floating ship was ready for liftoff. The commander in chief of the rear admiral sent Chiya and Yayomi directly to the floating ship.

The floating ship soared into the sky, crashed into a huge cloud vortex in the sky, and disappeared into the center of the vortex. It was the Void Passage that led directly to the Sleep of the Eternal Night Behemoth.

After a burst of vertigo, Qianye's perception returned to normal, and the floating ship rushed out of the sleep of the giant beast, landed at the edge of the canyon, put Qianya and the night pupil down, and turned back.

When the floating ship disappeared in the canyon, Qianyefang said to the night pupil, "Do you remember the place?"

Night Hitomi nodded, and they agreed to meet in a secluded valley outside of Blackstream.

"Okay, wait for me there. I'll arrange everything. After that, Qianye hugged the night pupil heavily, and then let her go away, and watched her figure disappear into the wilderness, and then walked in the direction of the imperial camp.

Qianye looked at the front as if there was no boundless battle line and couldn't help but be taken aback. When he entered the sleep of the giant beast, the imperial army had not yet been assembled, although from the scale of the expansion of the Zhao Valve's advance base at that time, it was already clear that the battle was grand, but now that he saw it with his own eyes, he deeply felt the determination of the empire to mobilize.

It's just that the battle for the ancient essence fragments of the Void Behemoth is nearing the end, and the "Battle of National Fortune" that Youguo Gong said that day doesn't know what it is?

The Imperial camp stood on a rolling hill, spreading out layer by layer, and at the front of it was a fortress, a turret, a watchtower, and an armored wall, as if it were already a fortress city. Qianye handed over his identity at the camp gate, and was led by a special person to the Zhaovalve camp.

Zhao Valve dispatched a large number of private troops this time, and Zhao Xuanji, the Duke of Youguo, personally sat in the town, with strong strength and respectful status, so the location of the camp was next to Zhang Boqian's Chinese army camp, and the location was prominent.
