Chapter 426: The Island of Slaughter {II}
The sun was warm in the forest, and the dwarves and rabbits walked towards the depths of the forest in an orderly manner, with Lei Jia and Xue Hongli leading the way in front, and Ye Ran and Luo Ning hanging far away at the end of the line.
There is a hidden laugh in front, the little rabbits have long been accustomed to migration, and they are not disgusted with this place, on the contrary, they already like dense forests, which are a little more vibrant than the ghost forest, and a little less eerie, they are naturally very happy, but Ye Ran is more and more frightened, and only feels that the threats are everywhere.
This kind of feeling he had never had when he was alone in the face of nearly a hundred locusts, and he had never faced a group of masters in Sanzhou and Nine Dao not long ago.
After walking for about a quarter of an hour, Ye Ran saw a small tiled house in the northwest, which had faded to green and lost its lushness, and the scattered dozen tiled houses were very conspicuous.
There was a fence outside the tiled houses, and there was a sign standing at the door of the fence, which didn't look strange, but the four big characters on the wooden sign made people feel shocked.
"Cruel Alliance",
Those words clearly reflected in Ye Ran's eyes.
Written in plain blue ink, the handwriting is sloppy, and there is nothing else, but the mere name makes people feel uncomfortable.
"Goo",
An owl flew out of the second white-tiled house on the left-hand side, its wings fluttering, and it landed on the branch of an elm tree in front of the tiled house, and its pale face was facing it.
The owl's body, human face, eagle-like claws, Ye Ran's heart moved again after seeing the owl's appearance, but he didn't have time to take a closer look at the human-faced owl and flew down, a brocade-clothed young man stretched out his blood-stained hand, and the owl stopped on the crook of his arm, stretched out his head and whispered something in his ear.
The boy stroked its wings, and from time to time whispered, "Is it?
"Are there many others with her?",
"And our friends? That's funny."
Ye Ran didn't see the young man, let alone hear his whispering, but Luo Ning knew that the person must be talking nervously again at this time.
Seeing Ye Ran looking at the white tiled house intently, she said softly: "The name of the Cruel Alliance was given by themselves, they originally had a large population, but because there were people in the alliance who had married with my family in the past generations, every time something happened to the Luo family, they couldn't stay out of it, their population was dying day by day, and then the ancestors had been studying the strange and secret techniques handed down by the family, and the family population was not prosperous, and the marriage was broken, so they turned to escape here",
She sighed lightly and said, "They are a little sick, neurotic, but not cruel, cruel is the people who used to treat them like that, they are just a group of poor people",
"But speaking of which, the puppeteers were able to leave the island alive thanks to their help, in a sense, the human-faced owl you saw was even the predecessor of the strange species."
The puppeteer apparently heard her, but was noncommittal, and said, "They helped me, but they didn't want to teach me those things, they did inspire me, but the inspiration for the Strange Species came mainly from the Blood Castle and the Eighty-Six Institute",
Blood Castle, Research Institute No. 86? Ye Ran's heart moved again.
Luo Ning smiled: "In terms of biological research, Research Institute Eighty-Six is unique, and the Blood Castle and the New Species Forbidden Zone have not yet reached their heights."
The puppeteer laughed: "That's true",
"There's the Blood Keep",
As he spoke, a castle appeared on the high mountain to the east, built against the mountain, and rose up in the form of steps, and the highest bell tower was only one head lower than the top of the mountain, and the echo of the evening bell echoed in the ears in the distance.
A few crows were perched at the top of the bell tower, and the eyes of the doves looked down.
At this time, it was already sunset, and the afterglow of the dusk sun fell to the ground through the ancient trees, the birds roosted, the beasts scattered, and the forest was silent.
The dwarves and rabbits were cheerful along the way, but they also felt uneasy when they arrived.
The bats and crows above the Blood Castle weave themselves into a kind of ominousness.
Luo Ning said: "The Castle of Eternal Night became like that because of this castle, but the killing created is far better than the Blood Castle, although the owner here is inseparable from blood, but because of the perennial war in that world, there is a large amount of blood in the blood bank of the Blood Castle, and they and the Eighty-Six Research Institute have mastered the technology of artificial blood, and there is no need to suck human blood at all."
Ye Ran didn't understand what he heard, shook his head and said, "Luo Ning, this place is getting weirder and weirder."
Luo Ning smiled: "This is a fantasy and treacherous place, but when you first arrived, you only saw its original appearance",
Seeing that many people showed timidity on their faces, Luo Ning smiled: "Let's go, Rhaegar is very familiar with this place, in front of it is the territory of the Blood Castle, Lynch has already greeted the owner here, in the past, the Blood Castle was also a subsidiary of the Luo family, although the ancestors of the Luo family left here, but after so many years, they will not hurt you",
Only then did everyone feel a little relieved and followed Rhaegar forward.
Ye Ran said: "Luo Ning, hasn't your ancestor left this island for thousands of years?
Luo Ning glanced at him and said with a smile: "The ancestor signed a contract with the Witch Sect back then, and the relationship was the best, and the marriage with the Cruel Alliance era was also a good friend, the Lin family, and Rhaegar were the right-hand men, naturally there were many favors, and the Blood Castle and the Eighty-Six Research Institute were both graceful and powerful, and the owner of the Blood Castle was very miserable by the ancestors at first, but the source of blood, corpses and secret techniques was mostly obtained from the ancestors, and the same is true of the Eighty-sixth Research Institute, so these two forces are both respected and feared to the bones, and naturally they dare not disrespect my family",
"Moreover, the ancestors only left this island and did not pass away, so how dare they act rashly?",
Ye Ran frowned and said: "Thousands of years, how can ordinary people have such a long lifespan?"
Luo Ning said with a smile: "There are thousands of people who have lived in this world for thousands of years, and there are not no people who have lived for tens of thousands of years, the four emperors who guarded the pillars of Tongtian, aren't the ancestors of your Moon Clan?
The names of soul transformation, blood pool and corpse cultivation sounded more unacceptable than the strange species in the forbidden area of the new species, and Ye Ran only felt that this island had opened a new door for him at this time. (To be continued.) )
