Chapter 13: Abyssal Rifts
"Hmm!"
"Terrence! I'm your sister! How dare you hit me! ”
With a slight anger in her words, Palaya then covered her head and trotted away from the great dragon Terrence.
"Idiot! Didn't Dragon's Legacy tell you not to rob other dragons of their possessions! ”
"This old guy is now my family! It's my stuff! Got it? ”
Needless to say, especially for guys who don't understand much.
"Humph! I'll find one when the time comes! ”
"What's the big deal!"
Palaya lost her temper and left her underground room without saying anything.
After such a fuss, Terrence could only give up the matter that he originally wanted to ask him before leaving, and let her ask about the situation of the old goblin.
But now it's better for her to leave, and she wants to be quiet.
"Palaya! I remember that the fishmen and the new goblins went to deal with the sand crocodiles outside, and it tasted bad after a long time. ”
Terrence's words still worked, and a few seconds later, Palaya's dragon language came from the tunnel.
"You'd better hurry up, or you won't want to eat a piece of fresh and good meat!"
"I'll leave you a sand crocodile ass then!"
"Cut~"
Terrence snorted, not caring about the details.
Then, set your sights on the old goblin.
The old goblin, as always, was carried by the big brother who had not yet grown up.
"Let's get started."
"As you wish! Great Lord Terrence! ”
The old goblin's words were very polite and pompous, which made Terrence extremely uncomfortable to hear.
"Your name?"
"The people like to call me Old Jill."
"What about age?"
"It should have been fifty-eight years, so far ago, I only remember approximately."
"What's your caster level?"
Aside from basic information such as his name and age, Terrence asked the question he was more concerned about: his strength.
"I've lived so long, but I've only only reached the level of a human magician."
Listening to the old goblin's words, Terrence thought about the division of strength of the dragon inheritance in his heart.
Dragons usually divide the creatures they see into ordinary creatures, transcendent creatures, and legendary creatures (demigods, gods, gods)
Ordinary creatures, with no special powers, are usually rankless.
Transcendent beings who have mastered magical powers, including all kinds of elemental magic of magicians; the physical energy and fighting spirit cultivated by knights, swordsmen, and berserkers; Psychic power master born with abnormal mental power; Arcanists who delve into ancient runes......
There are countless planes, in which there are countless species that live, and the system of power is too numerous to be enumerated.
But it's still roughly divided into, no rank, beginner, middle, high, legendary, high-level legend, god!
The mage is roughly equal to the beginner level of Terrence's cognitive information, but the specific strength of the old goblin depends on the situation.
"Old Jill? Anyway, when you first saw me, you made the goblins kneel? Did you find me a long time ago? ”
"This ......"
In the face of Terrence's slightly questioning words, Old Jill hesitated.
"I did find some traces of you."
"There are a lot of traces of being turned over on the hillside, and the soil is fresh when it comes out. Along the way, there are some wild vegetable leaves you left behind, and even one place that has been uprooted. And then there's your dragon claw footprints, and while I've never seen a dragon in my life, I think that's what my ancestors described! ”
Old Jill's words were almost reasonable, which surprised Terrence a little.
The analysis is very good, although he also thought about this reason afterwards, but it is still uncertain until it is confirmed.
"Very well, old Jill, you're right."
Terrence agreed with Old Jill's words. Then
Start asking about other things.
"Why did you flee here?"
"Isn't it good over there in the big crack?"
"Why are black goblins chasing you?"
“.......”
Terrence had a lot of questions, and old Jill let out a long sigh, and a melancholy look appeared on his face, as if he remembered something terrible but could not do anything about it.
"It's a demon!"
"They're all possessed by demons!"
Old Jill's words left Terrence a little confused.
According to the dragon inheritance received in his mind, the plane where Terrence is currently located is called the Io plane, the plane is not strong, it is only a medium-sized plane, but the Io plane is very stable, at least the demon invasion of the Io plane Terrence has not seen it in the dragon inheritance for the time being.
"What demon? You calm me down! Speak slowly! ”
"It was an ordinary morning, I was still in the clan researching the herbs I had picked, and the children of the clan said that they had found a cave and went out to explore together, and then the news came that they were missing."
"The patriarch of the clan organized men to go and check on them, and in the end only a few of their wounded people escaped, and that night they went crazy and bit the tribesmen."
"I led the rest of the tribal warriors to tie up the infected goblins and isolate them, and then I began to work on how to heal my people."
"What? Is it good without treatment? ”
"No!"
Old Jill sighed and continued.
"While we care about the infected people in the tribe, we forget that there are also people who have been led out to find the infected people."
"You sent men out and found them?"
"On the contrary, they found us."
As he spoke, Old Gil smiled wryly.
"They found you?"
Terrence pondered why.
"That's right! They are not afraid of death, and they seem to have no pain when they are injured! Directly past the traps and defenses we have set up, they are like the demons in the descriptions handed down from the mouths of our ancestors! So they must be controlled by demons! No! They have become demons! ”
Old Jill no longer had the politeness and pompousness of his previous words, and his tone and emotions were excited by the memories.
“......”
After listening, Terrence pondered for a long time.
At the same time, he was also waiting for the old Jill to recover after recalling the tragic memory of the ruins of the tribe's family.
Terrence flipped through the Dragon's Legacy in his mind, found the Demon Legacy and took a closer look.
After reading some information for a long time, Terrence came up with a guess of his own.
"Old Jill, you may have hit a rift in the abyss."
"However, it should be said that this thing is sealed, otherwise, we are done playing it now, and this place will become the first battlefield of the Abyss to invade the Io plane!"
"Of course, judging from your description and the Dragon Inheritance I've looked through, your clansmen should have been demonized by some of the abyssal aura that seeped out of the abyssal rift."
Terrence thought back to the black goblin, no, it should be the act of demonizing the goblin.
Indeed, like most of the unintelligent low-level demons in the abyss, they rely on the breath of living creatures and their body instincts to attack their prey.
"Deep ...... Abyss! ”
Old Jill's words trembled a little.
The abyss, that is synonymous with devouring countless planes! Extremely old and terrifying!
The Abyss, the full name of Infinite Layers of the Abyss
It is an endless, suffocating place of terror; It is a place where the environment is extremely harsh and life is extremely dangerous; It is a place of killing without morality and ethics and never stopping; It is an evil place where there is no friendship, no affection, no love, only betrayal, killing, destruction.
The Abyss is home to demons dedicated to death and destruction, and a home for chaotic evil spirits.
The bottomless abyss is a collection of all ugliness, evil, and chaos through infinite levels and countless variations.
With the myriad layers spiraling downward, it comes down to the extreme of brutality.
Conventional knowledge holds that the Bottomless Abyss has 666 layers, although perhaps the true number of layers is much higher, because no one knows how many planes the Abyss has devoured!
As mentioned earlier, the Bottomless Abyss has countless levels, but the top layer is well known: the Plain of Infinite Portals).
The animals and plants in the abyss are all aggressive, and the main intelligent life in them is a variety of demons.
Feeling the old Jill's fear, Terrence reluctantly comforted him, and at the same time thought about its value and his own plans.
