Chapter 1406: The night of darkness (2)
Translator: 549690339
The kingdom of the dead was once a silver land built on bone sand.
But now, it was beyond recognition …
The demonic Qi that was wreaking havoc had dyed every grain of white sand on this land Black, and the sky had also become dark and gloomy.
This place … Seemed to have become the border of the chaotic scorched earth, waiting to be “assimilated” and swallowed …
Weng, Weng, Weng, Weng, Weng!!
On the scorched earth, the runes of a magic array were buzzing.
Beside the formation stood a strange man with pure white skin and two pupils in each eye. He was wearing a black robe and a gorgeous cloak.
His name … Was Talim, one of the two current popes of The Phantom church (there were originally three, but only Talim and Sam Montier were left after the death of the soul snatcher).
Wuwuwuwu
The buzzing continued for a while, and with the sound of energy surging, three figures appeared in the formation.
“Phew … I finally succeeded.” When Talion saw the three, he heaved a sigh of relief. His body unconsciously swayed a few times, as if he was about to run out of strength.
“Talim?” he asked. After the players regained their mobility, Ling immediately recognized him and called out his name.
“Ah …” Talim also looked up at RUO Yu, Ling, and flower.”Long time no see … The three undead horsemen.”
“Where is this place?” RUO Yu observed her surroundings and asked,”did you summon us here?”
“You can’t recognize me, right …” Talim smiled bitterly,”ha … This is the kingdom of the dead that you swore loyalty to.”
“What?” “This is …” She didn’t finish her sentence but looked around and asked,”what happened during this time?”
“It’s a long story …” Talion said.”We can’t stay here for long. Please follow me to see the spirit King first. She’ll explain it to you when we get there.”
“Wait,” “Since when did The Phantom church become the spirit King’s subordinates?” Xiao Ling asked.
“Hehe …” Talion laughed sinisterly.”Not a subordinate, but an ally …” He paused and looked at the distant sky.”You may not know this … After ‘that incident’, there are almost no powers in the main universe that can fight alone. Even if they only ‘survive’, they need multiple alliances to do so.”
After saying that, he retracted his gaze and sighed.”Anyway, just follow me … I must have attracted ‘their’ attention when I activated the array just now. It won’t be long before ‘redundant soldiers’ come to patrol. It will be troublesome if we are held back by those guys …”
The gamers only understood part of Talim’s words and had many questions. They had to take it one step at a time to solve the questions.
Thus, RUO Yu and the other two followed Talim. The four of them went through a hidden entrance and entered a magical dimensional passage. They gradually entered the underground of the kingdom of the dead …

Back to Feng bujue’s side.
The few of them who were on the real chaotic scorched earth also followed Lao Wang and brother Zun to a place that looked like an underground cave.
All of the strongholds here were made of rocks that emitted high temperatures. Other than the lack of smoke, it felt like a sauna after entering.
Brother Jue and Xiao Tan had not gone far when they were already sweating. They were so hot that they almost stuck their tongues out.
However, Xu Huai Shang didn’t seem to be hot at all. Looking at her calm and composed expression, without a single drop of sweat on her face, she must have some method to avoid the heat.
“I say … Xiao Shang, why are you …” Feng bujue did not continue but stopped in the middle of his sentence.
“Why what?” Xu Huai Shang continued.
“You know … It’s …” Feng bujue said as he leaned on the wall with one hand and did a very seductive pose. Then, he started a ‘magic microphone’ performance. He pulled at his collar while sticking out his tongue and slowly wiped the sweat off his skin.
“Hahahaha …” Xu Huai Shang burst out laughing.
Xiao Tan’s lips twitched, and he narrowed his eyes.””Are you not writing books in the future because you’re planning to use this skill as rice …”
“Unless ‘academic knee dance’ becomes popular, I’m afraid I can’t make a living off of this …” Feng bujue said and stopped his amateur stripping dance. He turned to Xu huaixuan and said,”but do you understand what I mean?”
“Ha …” Xu Huai Shang slowly suppressed her laughter and continued,”I think I understand …” She paused and explained,”actually, it’s not complicated. It’s just one of the high-level ways to use energy … It’s similar to the technical principle I used to deal with the ‘audio detection’ of the [raw fish slices]. Of course …’Temperature isolation’ is much easier and less laborious than ‘resonance’.”
They had already discussed what had happened in Lin Ye town, so when she explained it to them, brother Jue and Xiao Tan basically understood.
“Oh, but then again, no matter how hot I am … I won’t …” Xu Huai Shang said as she held onto the wall with one hand, but she did not do what brother Jue did. She just stuck out her tongue and made a face.
“Tsk~I’m just trying to liven up the atmosphere. ” Feng bujue shrugged.
“The next time you want to use such a method to liven up the atmosphere, can you give me a heads up first …” Unexpectedly, King Mo Ming, who was walking in front of them, said,”give me a few seconds to dig out my eyes first.”
“You’re so annoying. Are you in your rebellious phase?” Brother Jue retorted,”do you feel lonely and confused, and you’re starting to grow hair on some parts of your body?”
Old Wang did not continue to argue with brother Jue because he knew he was no match for him. Therefore, he just continued to move forward silently and gave brother Jue the middle finger.
Although players were not allowed to do such actions, NPCs did not have such restrictions. In a sense, this could be considered a kind of preferential treatment …
They walked for a few more minutes and went deeper into the underground cave. After passing through a few winding and dangerous paths where lava could be seen, they finally came to a huge space with a high dome. The players ‘vision suddenly opened up.
“It’s US. Feng bujue and the others have arrived.” After entering the space, King Mo Di shouted.
His words reverberated in the empty cavern. Then, the heavy sound of rocks rubbing against each other was heard.
What appeared along with the voice was a distortion in space …
A few seconds later, on an empty plot of land, a large area of optical camouflage-like objects “opened.” It was not until the ‘invisible stone door’ was one-third open that Xiao Tan and Xu Huaishang realized that there was another ‘entrance'(brother Jue had discovered it with his data perspective the moment he arrived). If it wasn’t for someone opening it from the inside, no one would be able to see the stone door from any angle.
“You’re finally here …” Billy’s voice could be heard before the door was fully opened.
However … His voice sounded very strange, as if he was talking in a tank. It was a little stuffy.
The players immediately looked over and saw a huge armored puppet about 2.5 meters tall. It was pushing open the stone door and walking out. Billy’s voice came from the puppet’s “body.”
When the armored puppet walked out of the stone door, brother Jue and the others looked again and realized … On the left side of the puppet’s ribs, there was a large hole that ran through it from the front to the back. The irregular shape at the edge of the gap looked as if it had been punched through by something.
At this moment, both sides of the gap had been sealed by glass, and inside the glass … Was Billy’s head.
“Hey, hey … What’s going on?” Brother Jue immediately asked,”you and your brother combined?”
Of course, Feng bujue also recognized that the armored puppet was Billy’s younger brother, bill.
Di di di di di
Before brother Jue could finish, a message appeared on Bill’s Square ‘display face’.(Such emojis.
“Ha …” Billy laughed bitterly.”You can say that …” He added,”to put it simply … In a battle, I lost all my limbs except my head, and my brother lost his power source and the ability to speak.” He paused again.”Hmm … Think positively. Now, his emoji functions have become much richer.”
