After entering the Black Valley, Reilly and the others quickly found the ribs, which was a tall skeleton mage, busy in front of several cauldrons, and there was a huge laboratory table beside him, on which hundreds of bottles and jars were placed. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

"There are undead in this kind of place. Reilly playfully said, "And it's a man-made undead." ”

According to common sense, the undead should be the enemy of all gods, because both sides are fighting for souls, which is a fundamental conflict of interests and almost impossible to resolve, and the land of divine punishment is the core territory of the god of courage, and it is really shocking that undead creatures will appear here.

Riven focuses on something else.

In front of the ribs was a cauldron containing a dark green liquid, in which more than a dozen prisoners floated and wailed in pain, and a raging fire burned under the cauldron, the same fuel used by the prisoners, who screamed but could not make a sound, and they struggled but could not climb out of the flames.

The girl grasped the giant sword on her back, ready to slash the ribs at any moment. She can kill enemies on the battlefield and can't take in what is in front of her.

Rib slowly turned his head and said, "I...... Looks like we're coming to an end......"

"Maybe it's another place to start?" said Reilly, smiling, "If you're willing to surrender, I can take you in." ”

"You don't want to ask me what I'm doing?" Rib asked with interest.

"Isn't it just torturing the souls of those people and refining their negative emotions into the essence of fear, just look at it. Reilly said lightly: "Ordinary necromancers would condense the fear essence into crystals and store it, but you just changed to a more obscure method and sent the refined fear essence to the center of the black valley." ”

The jaws of the ribs are about to fall off: "How do you know?"

Reilly didn't answer, but asked again, "Will you surrender?"

"Impossible. Rib shook his head and said, "I have the ...... set by Nei An"

"It's not about Nessan. Reilly waved his hand and said, "That guy can't control me." ”

Ribs looked at him deeply and said, "If you can break the divine power of Nei'an, then I don't mind going with you." ”

"Good. Reilly nodded and said, "When I come out, I'll take you out of this place." Until then, you can think about your worth. ”

"My worth?"

"Yes, value. Reilly said meaningfully, "If your worth satisfies me, then I can also give you something, such as independence and freedom of the soul." ”

The ribs slowly raised their heads, and the soul fire in their eyes flickered like an explosion.

The Black Valley was even bigger than expected, and there were dozens of times more prisoners than expected, and there were tens of thousands of people living in the land that never saw the light of day, and even if everyone could live for hundreds of years like Ptolemy, the number of prisoners should not have been so large. In the Black Valley, there are villages, small towns, and even large fields and mines, in which clumps of aquatic plants grow, and from time to time prisoners come out of the mines, and their backs are filled with a raw ore that looks like coal.

There are many workshops on the road, and the prisoners in it pour black soil into molds, tamp them with hammers, and then put them on the stove to grill, and when the molds are opened, the black soil becomes square bricks and is transported to the town in the middle of the black valley.

Richard casually stopped a convoy transporting black bricks, let Quicksand solve the undead warriors guarding it, and then took out a black brick and looked at it. The black bricks are as smooth as a mirror, and they can clearly reflect the human faces, but those faces are distorted by extreme pain, and suddenly seeing themselves become like this, everyone was startled, and Reilly turned on the divine vision again, only to find that there is a lot of fear, pain and resentment condensed in the black bricks, which is pure spiritual power, so everyone will see the distorted self from it.

Richard lifted the black brick in his hand, looked at the extremely solemn and majestic dark black hall in the middle of the valley, and said in a deep voice: "I seem to have seen or heard of such a place somewhere. ”

"Hell is full of such sights, isn't it mentioned in the books?" said Reilly, spreading his hands, "Haven't you seen it in the Deep Blue Library?"

Norland is no stranger to Hell, and there are several shelves in the Deep Blue Library that contain information about this plane

"Come to think of it, I did see it in the book. Richard suddenly realized, and then frowned again: "Why does Neian want to learn from those devils?"

"When we visit the whole Black Valley, we should know the answer. Reilly said with a smile.

Most of the prisoners in the black valley looked insensitive, even if they saw Reilly and the others, they didn't have the slightest reaction, they didn't know how long they survived, and they didn't know how many times they had died and been resurrected, Reilly asked them where Bruno was, but they couldn't get any answer, and finally quicksand came up with a way, she directly ignited a prisoner with a divine flame, which was a more painful experience than death, the prisoner immediately let out a scream, and the other prisoners finally showed a look of fear, noticed the existence of Richard and others, and began to answer questions, but it was a pity that they had obviously been tortured for too long, so that most of his reason and memory were missing, and after walking through several villages and workshops in a row, Reilly found out a little bit about Bruno.

In a village, Reilly and the others unexpectedly saw the birth of a new life.

It was a woman who looked to be seventy or eighty years old, she gave birth in the village square, dozens of prisoners living in the village and two prisoners were watching, Reilly and the others also crowded into the crowd, the prisoners and even the supervisors did not react, they were just looking at the woman in pain, and after a while, a new life was born.

It was a baby, covered in black gas, with a little face twisted into shape, and he was crying in pain, but he couldn't make any sound. Reilly looked surprised as he "heard" the baby's cry, a sound that could not be described in words, striking the souls of all people like sharp iron vertebrae. This child was born with a strong soul, but he was immersed in the deepest pain all his life, and the cry of this child was the supreme delicacy for those creatures who fed on pain.

Seeing the baby's safe birth, the faces of both the prisoner and the prisoner showed ecstasy, one of the prisoners immediately stepped forward to pick up the baby, while the other prisoner couldn't wait to pounce on the woman who had just given birth, the woman was already dying, but in the Black Valley, she might not be able to die at all.

Richard felt better when he had to use magic to block out the baby's cry, and then said, "Is this how the painful souls of the great devils in hell come from?"

"No, they have to find a way to trick creatures from other planes into sacrificing their souls, and then 'process' them in order to get such enjoyment. Reilly said meaningfully, "From this point of view, this black valley is even more evil than the Pain Hell. I've only seen in books about places where souls can produce natural pain, and this is the first time I've seen them in person. ”

"Heresy!" Exclaimed Essien, waving his hands vigorously, and a pillar of fire fell from the sky and rained down on the overseer holding the baby, setting him and the baby in his hand on fire. The Overseer and the baby struggled and screamed desperately in the flames, and the baby's cry was extremely penetrating, and it actually forcibly broke through Richard's magical barrier and pierced everyone's souls. Fortunately, his cry did not last long, and his body turned into white ashes in the flames, and the ashes formed by the overseer were immediately absorbed by the black earth, but the ashes of the baby were not tolerated by the land, leaving a miserable white mark on the ground.

Both the supervisor and the prisoner in the village stopped moving, slowly stood up, stared at Richard and the others, and kept saying, "You killed the Holy Child...... You killed the Holy Child......"

A shadow swept over Richard's face, and for the first time he showed murderous intent, five sparks floated from his fingertips, flew to the ground in front of him, burning faintly like candles, and stopped in front of the prisoners.

"Let's go. Richard walked out of the village without looking back, and a prisoner staggered towards Richard, but accidentally stepped on a small flame the size of a bean, and this small flame turned into a pillar of fire in the blink of an eye, swallowing him whole, and the prisoner struggled in agony, but was soon burned to ashes by the purgatory-like flames.

The prisoners all stopped in shock, and the invisible boundary formed by the other four small flames was obviously the boundary between survival and destruction.
