The violent tremors spread through the entire Rusty Pagoda Forest in just half a minute.
Countless broken Pagoda Forest shook, but there was no reaction.
In this remote Infernal Realm, there were no longer any natives. They were all Infernal Realm settlements that had migrated here from other Depths.
Dozens of settlements occupied areas rich in resources and attacked each other, just like in many other Infernal Realms.
Until now, no true ruler had been born. It was only because of the abundance of water that they had a little bit of life.
Once the water that fell from the clouds and the Pagoda Forest disappeared, they would most likely set off again and go to other places.
This was Infernal Realm.
The moment the blazing sun fell, it attracted countless gazes.
In just half an hour, the ruins of the Big Tooth Tribe were filled with people. The legions from the various settlements had already sealed off the inside and outside.
"Treasure!"
The leader of the Dragon Scale Settlement surrounded the remains of Sun Ship and excitedly licked his lips. His saliva was almost dripping down. "Although I don't know what this is, it must be a treasure!"
Not long after, his heart had been stolen by the shiny object in front of him. Other than that, there was no joy or sorrow.
As for the in-law that had just been smashed to death?
Who was that?
Thanks to the geographical advantage of the Dragon Scale Settlement, he was the first to arrive. At the same time, he brought the most people. The Evergreen Settlement's reaction was a bit slower. When they arrived, it was already too late.
As for the rest, they did not even squeeze in.
Seeing the dozens of huge steel chariots that were still emitting thick smoke and hundreds of Kobolds armed to the teeth, they wisely chose to retreat.
Only the leader of the Evergreen Settlement was still standing in front of Sun Ship's remains, looking up in a daze.
Until he sensed the cold gazes of the Dragon Scale Settlement's group leaders.
The leader of the Evergreen Settlement raised his eyes and coldly asked, "Such a big thing, don't tell me Sir Gray Blade wants to take it for himself?"
Behind him, a large group of cavalry mounted the huge lizards, the spears in their hands reflecting a cold light.
Gray Blade was not to be outdone. The steel chariot behind him spewed out thick smoke, and he turned the cannons to aim at his' neighbors'. "First come, first served, that's what it means!
What's wrong? Do you have any objections? "
The grey-robed female serpent-man didn't say anything, but the cold light in her vertical eyes became even colder.
But soon, when she inadvertently swept her gaze over the cracked Sun Ship, she was able to distinguish a blurry mark — the emblem of a pure white tower. Her pupils shrank slightly as she subconsciously took a step back.
"No."
The elder's complexion suddenly changed. "I have no objections."
As she spoke, she raised her hand and signaled her subordinates behind her to put down their weapons and prepare to retreat.
For a time, the tense atmosphere began to dissipate.
Even though the subordinates did not understand the orders of the Revered Elder, they still chose to obey. They covered the Revered Elder and slowly retreated. The formation of more than sixty cavalrymen was strict and did not waver.
"That's right!"
Seeing his opponent running away with his tail between his legs, Gray Blade suddenly laughed proudly. "You people are just wretched and ill-fated. You don't have enough luck and wisdom. How could you be qualified to obtain such a treasure?"
"Men, drag it back!"
He stroked the golden hull, almost drooling. He recalled the ancient books passed down from the Modern Realm in the settlement and suddenly found a very appropriate metaphor.
"— This is called: Heaven's treasure belongs to those who are virtuous!"
"In fact, I think so too."
Suddenly, a voice of agreement sounded, making Patriarch Gray Blade nod proudly. But then, he saw the golden hull in front of him suddenly split open.
Endless darkness was revealed.
A hand slowly stretched out from the darkness, casually pressed on his head, and pinched his head.
Then, a pale face emerged from the darkness, looking down at his sluggish appearance.
It seemed to be smiling.
"But the problem is …"
Huai Shi asked:
"— Who is the treasure?"
Gray Blade's eyes widened, and he subconsciously drew his sword. In an instant, the arm and the face were cut into pieces. But then, he saw that from the broken flesh and blood, countless sticky tentacles slowly stretched out and entangled his body.
The terrifying shadow from the abyss opened its big mouth in the darkness, grinned, and grinned.
That cold and cruel look made the kobold roar in horror. But countless tentacles stretched out from the darkness, entangled his body little by little, sank into his mouth, nose, and brain little by little.
In the end, the cruel essence from hell poured into his soul from the inside out.
Pain.
Despair.
Anger, sadness, and resentment …
In the endless tide of darkness, he struggled in horror, shouted, and screamed in despair, but no one heard him. In the end, he was completely dyed with the color of darkness.
What seemed like an eternity of torture only lasted for a moment.
In everyone's eyes, Gray Blade was just touched on the head, and he instantly froze in place, dumbfounded. Then, he let out a shrill scream.
Thick darkness spewed out from his mouth and nose, and steel birds were reborn from the darkness one after another. They spread their wings and flew into the sky, shrouding the entire territory in eternal darkness.
All the kobolds from Dragon Scale Settlement were pulled into the terrifying shadow from the abyss.
Despair spread like a plague.
No matter how heavy the armor was, or how heavy the chariot was, this bloodline curse was madly spreading.
Every soul within reach was pulled into the darkness where countless souls were buried.
In the eternal silence and tranquility, all souls were rapidly collapsing. Then, under the corrosion of plagues and curses, they rapidly reassembled.
Countless noises reverberated in their ears, constantly trampling on their willpower and resistance. In the end, the noises seeped into every part of their souls, not allowing them to resist.
Gradually, the noisy and unbearable sounds seemed to become pleasing to the ears, like the fanatical chanting of countless souls, attracting people and making them want to be immersed in it.
Nothing, don't think.
Don't think.
All he had to do was to devote himself to this unprecedented happiness.
Give all your souls and will to the fanatical chanting, to the great name that constantly appeared in the chanting.
Ah, ah, praise the eternal King of Hell.
Holy, holy, holy, holy, the Lord of Darkness, Despair, and End!
— Bahamut!
Thus, after a short period of dead silence, the violently twitching kobolds suddenly stopped, a blazing light appearing in their lifeless eyes.
They hoarsely muttered something, but in the end, it turned into fanatical shouts.
"Holy! Holy! Holy! "
As far as the eye could see, all the kobolds in Dragon Scale Settlement respectfully prostrated themselves on the ground, devoutly praising and singing. They did not dare to raise their heads to look at the descending Lord and God.
Huai Shi, on the other hand, finally walked out of the ruins of the ship with Gray Blade's head.
As if he finally realized that he was naked, he casually grabbed with his hand, and a metallic light spread from his fingertips. Soon, it turned into a grey-black robe that was draped over his body.
Under the gloomy sky, his handsome face looked even more strange and gloomy. However, a strange light flashed in his eyes from time to time, as if they contained the essence of Hell and the Abyss, the crystallization of pain and despair.
"Phew, that feels good."
He stretched his body as if there was no one around. Amidst the crisp cracking sounds, he looked around and finally saw the terrified Nagas not far away.
The moment he raised his finger, a figure suddenly rushed out from the Naga cavalry.
She knelt on the ground.
She respectfully greeted, "Sir Huai Shi, long time no see."
Huai Shi's movements paused slightly.
He looked at the Nagas in front of him in confusion.
"You know me?"
The female Naga respectfully replied, "I, no, my predecessor, was under your command and served you."
Huai Shi thought for a moment and instantly understood.
The only time he had interacted with the Nagas was when he was in the Village of Dusk. However, at that time, the commander of the Naga army, the respected elder of the army, should be a male, right?
If he remembered correctly, based on the characteristics that the respected elder taught him, the respected elder in front of him should be a female, right?
"After serving you, I participated in the war between two rulers and died gloriously. My body and seeds were transported back to the embrace of the Eternal Ring and I was reborn as one of the four descendants," the female Naga explained.
The female Naga explained, "I've inherited my predecessor's memories and status. According to the present world, I'm his daughter."
The reason why the Naga army was not afraid of death was because of the glands in their bodies that could store memories and the mysterious Eternal Ring.
As long as the glands could be recovered, they could be reborn under the nurturing of the ruler, the Eternal Ring.
In the depths of Hell, the ruler was known as the merciful and cruel Mother. It was because she cherished each of her descendants but was never stingy with their lives.
Only Nagas who fought to the death could gain her favor.
Especially warriors like the respected elder who had experienced hundreds of battles.
Seeing the different respected elder in front of him, Huai Shi was stunned for a moment and did not know what to say.
He scratched his head and looked around.
"When old friends meet, we should have a good chat. Unfortunately, this does not seem to be a good place to talk." He asked, "Is it convenient to leave an address? I will pay you a visit another day."
"Yes."
The respected elder replied, "Our Evergreen Settlement is located under the Northern Great Tower of the Rusty Tower Forest. There are signs along the way. If you want to visit, we welcome you at any time."
Seeing the other party's magnanimous attitude, Huai Shi was speechless.
"Are you not worried that I have bad intentions?"
"If Sir Huai Shi had bad intentions, he would not have kept me alive until now, right?"
The esteemed elder shook his head nonchalantly. "A hero like Lady Huai Shi wouldn't make such hypocritical designs for the sake of my settlement."
"Then, I will see you another day."
Huai Shi nodded and waved his hand, indicating that the dragon scale settlement that had become his own to disperse and let them go in and out.
Just like that, he watched the Naga army leave.
Then, next …
He looked around at the ruins in front of him and the countless' believers' who were crawling in front of him.
As soon as he fell, he was given a lot of tools. His luck was really good …
"Where is your settlement?" He asked.
Gray Blade pointed in a direction without raising his head. The nearest settlement had towering walls and was heavily guarded.
"Your house looks quite big. If you are tired from playing, you can sleep directly."
Huai Shi nodded and patted his head, "Okay, let's go there … Also, you guys should also tidy up and see if there is anything that can still be used here. Don't waste it."
Soon, under Huai Shi's order, all the members of the dragon scale settlement were mobilized.
They began to rummage through everything in the Big Tooth Settlement. At the same time, they caught a large group of rat-men hiding in the ruins and tied them up.
Not long after, in the sound of smoke rising from the steel chariot, the sun ship covered with a thick layer of felt was slowly dragged up. Under many burning and greedy gazes, it disappeared behind the gate of the dragon scale settlement.
Ten minutes later, there was no more dragon scale settlement.
Only the sign of the Bahamut Cult's Tallinn branch rose.
.
.
"If you ask me, I'd say it's freaking strange."
Raymond lay on a hospital bed in a large, temporarily remodeled workshop, swallowing Origin Crystals to quickly recover his HP.
However, when he saw the countless fanatical kobolds in front of him, he felt that something was wrong.
He had known that Huai Shi was very strange.
However, he had never thought that this guy would be even more strange after coming to the Infernal Realm.
If Celestial genealogy had a buff in the Abyss, then it would have been fine. However, this wasn't just a buff; it was a version ahead, wasn't it?
"Isn't it normal to become stronger after spending money?"
Huai Shi calmly sat on his throne, enjoying the kobolds' offerings. He even held his baton and directed the kobolds to sing a pious hymn.
He had listened to the same tune tens of thousands of times. It was easy to command them.
The iron crows had already flown in all directions, still searching for information on this Infernal Realm.
However, they hadn't expected that they would be swept to the 37th level by the storm. They had crossed more than half the distance to the outpost at the 45th level.
However, the outpost's location was slightly remote. The captain still needed to compare the signal and location of the lighthouse to calculate a new route.
Also, the damage to the Sun Ship needed time to be repaired.
They couldn't just rely on Raymond's Beast Soul. At the same time, Professor Anton and Gregory needed to further investigate whether there were any hidden dangers left behind by the advancement.
The entire process would take a few days. They would probably have to settle down in this Infernal Realm first.
Otherwise, Huai Shi wouldn't have been bothered to inject all the kobolds with Origin Substance and infect them all into his believers.
In other words, Celestial genealogy's affinity with the Abyss was good.
Coming to the Infernal Realm was like returning home.
The path of Heaven's Inquisition was good at modifying the environment of the Infernal Realm. Huai Shi was also Great Si Ming and Xiangjun. Before the latter advanced, her interference with the Infernal Realm was limited. However, Great Si Ming's branch included full control of a large group of people …
Especially when coupled with the many vicious poisons and terrifying curses contained in Huai Shi's Origin Substance, as well as the extremely high suppression brought about by the qualitative change of his divinity.
Encountering such a large group of cannon fodder that relied on numbers was no different from cooking two dishes.
He directly used the Ultimate, then brainwashed them with ashes, infected them with Origin Substance, the Halo of Fear, and finally the Plague of Faith … With drugs and training, the entire set would take less than three minutes. The other party would turn into the shape of Bahamut and would never be able to leave Huai Shi.
No wonder Tongi once said that his path was most suitable for an illegal cult.
This was the first time he had fully unleashed the power of Great Si Ming. Even Huai Shi was shocked by this. With such a ridiculous ability, if he made the slightest mistake, he might be able to cause a lot of trouble in the Present Realm … …
From this, it could be seen that the founders of the utopia were truly extraordinary.
While everyone was still fighting for Correction Points in the Present Realm, they had already set their sights on the Infernal Realm in search of a bright future.
Not to mention the other paths, just the Dusk path's combat strength, the Eternal path's huge equipment, and the Heaven's Inquisition path's logistical support and recruitment of cannon fodder … … As long as three or four people formed a team, they would be a living war machine.
If they were thrown into any Infernal Realm, as long as there was no ruler to suppress them, they would be able to set off a storm of blood.
Just look at Raymond and you would know.
The White Dragon, who had just advanced, had been chased down by Hades and then encountered the Deep Storm. He had fallen to the 37th level of the Abyss and smashed into the ground.
In the end, he was completely fine.
The main frame was only slightly deformed, and the passengers were completely unharmed apart from being shaken up a little. Although many of the instruments had been damaged, with the supreme quality of the origin blood, a little bit of origin crystal would be enough to make up for it.
After Professor Anton and Gregory finished their examination, he would be fully recovered in a day or two. Where else in the entire realm could one find such a sturdy and durable tool other than Celestial genealogy?
It was precisely because of such conditions that he had.
Huai Shi's mind became active again.
"Hey, what are you thinking about?"
Raymond already had PTSD, and when he saw this guy's eyes darting around, all the hair on his body stood on end. He had a feeling that he would be arranged at any time.
"Actually, even here, it's not absolutely safe."
Huai Shi shook his head, muttered to himself, and organized his words. "As long as my name is still on the jester's blacklist, they can lock onto my location at any time and target me."
Raymond was stunned. "We've already run more than 30 levels, and we're still in such a remote place. It can't be that bad, right?"
"But what if it's not just Hades who wants to mess with me?"
Huai Shi asked.
As early as in the Thunder White Plains, when he saw the reforged Withered Mountain, Huai Shi smelled something bad. That kind of hellish craftsmanship and power … The only thing that could make him think of was the purgatory workshop owners who directed the tragic end of the Twilight Village.
In addition, Paradise also had to be taken into consideration.
Looking at it this way, he was simply an enemy of the entire world in hell.
Other than the Kitchen Demon Association and Hell Music, there were not many helpers at all.
Now they had only fought for a temporary respite.
Moreover, in the Abyss, there was no safe zone for them to hide in. If they wanted to achieve their goal of reactivating the outpost and the Nautilus, it was useless to rely on escaping.
It was inevitable that they would have a few head-on confrontations with them.
Then it was imperative to accumulate strength and prepare for war.
Now that there was an existence like the Sun Ship that could at least run away, all plans had a foothold.
"Then, the key is, where can I find a group of cannon fodder that is so useful and doesn't hurt …"
Huai Shi muttered to herself as she tapped the head of her chair.
When he looked at the tower forest in the twilight outside the door, he unconsciously smiled.
