Gray Stone Town!
Inside a strange church. Unlike the churches in the original universe, there were a large number of strange statues … No, statues!
Some of the statues were from the Giant Demon Race, some were from the Blood Race, and some were from the Sheep-headed Demon Race … They were of all shapes and sizes, and they looked extremely strange in the dark church.
"This is where you guys are hiding?" Wang Teng looked at Rodney with a strange expression.
"The most dangerous place is the safest place. This Holy Church is an extremely important place for the dark apparitions. They would never expect us to hide here," Rodney said confidently.
"Since this is an extremely important place for the dark apparitions, how did you guys manage to control this place?" Wang Teng asked curiously.
"There are very few dark apparitions here. Usually, no one comes here. We attacked them at lightning speed and caught them off guard. We directly controlled those dark apparitions." Rodney smiled proudly.
"What is this Holy Church used for?" Wang Teng asked as he led Zi Ye inside.
"It's mainly for the dark apparitions to worship their ancestors during important festivals," Rodney explained as he led the way.
Wang Teng nodded.
Not long after, the three of them entered the Holy Church. Under Rodney's lead, they turned into a dark corridor and entered an inconspicuous room.
Wang Teng couldn't help but activate [Eyes of Truth] and scan the surroundings. His eyebrows couldn't help but raise.
A secret passage!
There was actually a secret passage in this room that led directly to the underground.
"Sir, please come this way." Rodney carefully led the way in front.
He walked to a candlestick and gently twisted the base of the candlestick. After a series of "ka ka" sounds, a dark hole appeared on the ground.
"You guys are quite mysterious," Wang Teng said.
Zi Ye's eyes also revealed a hint of surprise, but she didn't say anything.
After staying with these hybrids for a long time, she also knew that most of them were crafty. They hid in all sorts of strange places and were very mysterious. Otherwise, they would have been found long ago.
Compared to the past, this tunnel wasn't much.
"I won't hide it from you. This secret chamber already existed. There are some Runes inside that can isolate us from probing. We only learned about it from those dark apparitions. Otherwise, we wouldn't have been able to find this place," Rodney said with a smile.
"Why did these dark apparitions build such a place?" Wang Teng asked.
"To sleep," Rodney said.
"…" Wang Teng.
"…" Violet Night.
It was so mysterious. After all this time, it was actually just a place to sleep.
"Dark apparitions of the Blood Clan like dark environments. There are a lot of Blood Demon Crystals embedded in this underground chamber. It's perfect for them to hibernate," Rodney said.
Wang Teng nodded. He wasn't surprised. He knew the habits of the Vampire dark apparitions very well. It was exactly as Rodney had said.
Speaking of which, this was indeed an extremely safe place. The dark apparition would never have thought that a hybrid would hide in such a place.
Tap, tap, tap …
The three of them walked down the stone steps. The dark environment didn't block their vision. Moreover, after walking for a while, traces of blood-red light appeared in front of them. It didn't affect their vision at all.
Soon, they reached the bottom of the stone steps. A huge underground space appeared in front of Wang Teng and the others.
In the underground space, there was a group of mixed-bloods waiting for their arrival.
Some of these hybrids were sitting on the ground, while others were standing. However, when they saw Wang Teng and the others, they all stood up.
Then, they looked at Wang Teng with burning gazes.
Wang Teng felt his scalp turning numb when he saw their gazes. If he hadn't heard about these mixed-bloods from Rodney and Ziye, he might have gotten a shock.
Those fiery gazes were as if they had seen a peerless beauty.
It was so creepy!
Especially in such a strange environment.
However, he now believed Rodney and Violet Night's words. These hybrids could be used.
"Sir!"
The hybrids led by Barnett came up and greeted Wang Teng respectfully.
"I'm not a sir." Wang Teng smiled faintly.
"This …" Barnett and the others' expressions changed. They thought that Wang Teng wasn't willing to accept them. They couldn't help but look at Rodney.
"I brought Sir here this time mainly to see Sir and hear everyone's thoughts." Rodney immediately gave him a look and said.
"Oh, right." Barnett understood and immediately led the way. He said respectfully, "Sir, this way please. Let's sit down and talk."
This time, Wang Teng didn't refuse. Since he was already here, he had to listen to the hybrids' thoughts. As for the future plans, it would naturally depend on their attitude.
"Our place is a little shabby. Please forgive us, sir." Barnett brought Wang Teng into a stone room and said awkwardly.
In his opinion, a powerhouse like Wang Teng definitely wouldn't like such a shabby environment. It was inevitable that he felt a little uneasy.
"It's fine!" Wang Teng waved his hand and said calmly.
He swept his gaze across the stone room and saw a few stone chairs. He sat down.
Violet Night didn't stand on ceremony and sat down.
Rodney, Barnett, and the others didn't dare sit down. They stood to the side cautiously and stole glances at Wang Teng from time to time.
"Rodney asked me to come here. He said that you have something to say to me?" Wang Teng glanced at them. He felt a little helpless. These mixed-bloods didn't look smart. Why did he have to ask them personally? They didn't know what to do.
In fact, he had neglected the impact of his previous display of strength on these hybrids. That kind of strength was really something these hybrids had never seen before. Now that they were facing Wang Teng in close proximity, how could they remain calm?
Barnett and Rodney looked at each other and immediately knelt down. "Please save us, sir."
"…" Wang Teng was speechless.
These words were exactly the same as what Rodney had said.
These hybrids were relying on him, weren't they?
Wang Teng didn't know whether to laugh or cry. He asked, "How do you want me to save you?"
"Please take us away from here, sir. We are willing to pledge our loyalty to you," Barnett said.
"You want me to save you on the condition that you pledge your loyalty to me. Then what's the difference between me and the dark apparitions?" Wang Teng asked.
"Sir, we are both hybrids. We naturally believe that you will lead us to the light. We are willing to follow you as our leader," Barnett said.
"Aren't you afraid that I will lie to you? You should know that many hybrids still submit to the dark apparitions and willingly become their claws, "Wang Teng suddenly said eerily.
The surroundings suddenly became quiet. Many of the hybrids who were eavesdropping outside suddenly became restless.
Barnett and Rodney looked at each other and said carefully, "There are two important reasons why we believe you, sir."
"Tell me," Wang Teng said noncommittally.
"First, sir, you are familiar with the Purple King. We have known the Purple King for so long. We know what kind of person she is. Furthermore, she is willing to sacrifice herself for us. We have no reason not to believe her." As Barnett spoke, he suddenly bowed to Zi Ye gratefully. Zi Ye felt a little embarrassed. Then, he continued, "Since the Purple King trusts you so much, we have no reason not to believe you, sir."
Wang Teng smiled and glanced at Zi Ye. He didn't expect this little girl to have such a high status among these hybrids. She had won the hearts of many. This surprised him.
Barnett saw that Wang Teng was a little moved and hurriedly continued, "Second, sir, you were able to kill those vampire dark apparitions in front of so many of us. There was even a 12-star warlord and many 11-star warlords among them. If this is a plot against us hybrids, then the price of this plot is too high."
"Plus, those dark apparitions can kill us easily. There is no need to use such a plot."
Hearing Barnett's analysis, the hybrids outside gradually quieted down.
Just like what Barnett said, Wang Teng had no reason or need to lie to them.
This wasn't hard to see. It was just that many hybrids didn't have the relevant education and limited knowledge, so they didn't think about it.
"How about this? I have something for you to do. If you do it well, I will accept you," Wang Teng said slowly.
Barnett and the others' eyes instantly lit up. They were afraid that Wang Teng wouldn't accept them. As long as he agreed, they would have a chance.
This sir was so strong. He was even stronger than the 13-star warlords they had seen. If they didn't hold onto this thigh, they couldn't imagine what hope they would have in the future.
Their biggest hope was undoubtedly in front of them.
They had to hold onto it tightly.
"Sir, please give us your orders," Barnett said.
"No rush. I will look for you again tomorrow. I will tell you then," Wang Teng stood up and said.
"Yes!" Barnett didn't ask any more questions and immediately nodded.
"Okay, that's all for now. I'm leaving." Wang Teng brought Ziye out. "Rodney, come with me too. If there's anything, I'll pass on the message through you."
"Okay, okay!" Rodney instantly quivered and replied excitedly.
To be able to gain this sir's favor, his old bones might be able to use some of their strength.
With his age, it was already very difficult for him to progress further. However, if he followed this sir, the future wasn't completely hopeless.
Barnett immediately looked at Rodney with envy, jealousy, and hatred. This old Rodney had actually caught the eye of that Lord. How could such a good thing not happen to him?
He was much younger than Rodney.
However, thinking about how Rodney had met this sir first, he could only sigh helplessly.
"Let's go!" Wang Teng left with Zi Ye and Rodney.
In the night, a huge bird was circling in the sky. Wang Teng brought the two of them and stepped onto Little White's back. They disappeared into the night.
"It's that powerful bird!" Barnett sent them off with a few of the mixed-blood higher-ups. Looking at the huge crow flying away in the sky, he was very emotional. "Not to mention that sir, I can't even see through that huge bird. I feel that it is even more terrifying than a 13-star general."
"Yes, that faintly emitted power is really scary." A mixed-blood at the side nodded in agreement. He hesitated and said, "I wonder what level this bird is? It should be more than … an overlord, right? "
"Could it be a legendary king-level?" A mixed-blood higher-up said with uncertainty.
"Hiss!" The other mixed-blood higher-ups around them instantly took in a deep breath. They looked at the mixed-blood higher-up in shock as if to say, "How dare you think that way?"
This thought was too scary!
A bird had reached the "king-level." What kind of existence was that sir?
"It might really be a king-level. That sir's abilities are unfathomable. Have you all forgotten the situation when he killed those dark apparitions from the blood race? At that time, I had already guessed that the master's strength was definitely above the level of a 13-star general. After sensing it up close just now, I was completely certain that the master's strength was truly terrifying. I actually felt a little breathless in front of him. As his mount, the realm of that bird can be imagined. "Barnett slowly said.
The mixed-blood higher-ups around them instantly fell silent. They were secretly shocked.
Barnett was a 9-star soldier-level martial warrior, but he couldn't even breathe in front of that sir. The difference in abilities was too big.
"Then …" Someone hesitated for a while and asked again, "Can we really trust him?"
"Given his abilities, if he wants to kill us, he doesn't need to go through so much trouble," Barnett said in a deep voice. "Also, the difference in abilities between us is so big. There shouldn't be anything that he needs."
Everyone couldn't help but nod. "In that case, that sir is going to give us instructions tomorrow purely to test our abilities?"
"Probably." Barnett shook his head and didn't say anything else. "Anyway, we'll know tomorrow. Let's just wait."
…
In the night sky, a huge dark red bird sped through the air. Its speed was very fast, and its color blended in with the night sky. It didn't seem very eye-catching.
"Big Brother Wang Teng, where are we going?" Zi Ye sat on Little White's back and gently stroked its back. She couldn't help but ask curiously.
She was very interested in Little White. Ever since she saw Little White, she had been asking all sorts of questions. She was very curious.
Little White also knew that Zi Ye was very important to Wang Teng, so it was very close to her.
Thus, the human and bird formed a preliminary friendship.
"You'll know when we get there." Wang Teng smiled mysteriously.
Seeing this, Zi Ye didn't ask any more questions. Anyway, she was very satisfied as long as she followed Wang Teng.
Rodney also didn't ask any more questions. In his opinion, it was already a great honor for this sir to bring him along. He definitely wouldn't ask anything that he shouldn't ask.
Sitting on Little White's back, he felt a little unreal. He didn't expect that he, Rodney, would have the chance to sit on such a powerful star beast. It was really good luck. In the future, he would have the capital to brag about it.
Little White was very unhappy. It was already an exception to let Zi Ye sit on its back. What right did this old man have?
If it wasn't for Wang Teng's instructions, it would have directly thrown this old man down.
Ga!
A cry came from its mouth, venting its little emotions.
Rodney could clearly feel that this giant bird didn't like him. His expression immediately changed, and he couldn't help but look at Wang Teng.
"Alright!" Wang Teng stroked Little White's back and threw a star beast's star core to Little White. He smiled and said, "Only this time. There won't be a next time."
Ga!
Whitey swallowed the Star Nucleus, and only then did it stop being so moody.
It also had the temperament of a child. Its little emotions came and went as it pleased. It was very easy to coax it.
Zi Ye pursed her lips and smiled. She felt that it was very interesting.
Rodney let out a sigh of relief. Seeing Zi Ye's smile, he couldn't help but feel happy. This lass hadn't shown such a smile in a long time.
Perhaps she would only be this happy when facing this sir.
After flying for about half the night, a pitch-black mountain range appeared in the thick night sky.
Roar!
Roar!
There was a dark moon in the sky. Many dark star beasts let out deep roars in the mountain range. They were cultivating.
Ga!
Little White let out a cry that seemed to be able to pierce through gold and crack stone. It echoed in the sky above the mountain range.
For a moment, all the star beasts were quiet. They didn't dare to make any noise. It was as if someone had grabbed their throats.
Rodney was secretly shocked. This sir's mount was too powerful. With just a cry, all the star beasts in the mountain range didn't dare to make any noise.
One had to know that he had just sensed some extremely powerful auras. They were dark star beasts that were at least at the overlord level.
Zi Ye's eyes flashed. She hadn't asked how strong Wang Teng was. Now that she saw this scene, she knew that his strength was definitely beyond her imagination.
Thinking of this, she was very happy.
After all, the stronger Wang Teng was, the more things he could teach her. She would also become stronger in the future.
She was suddenly filled with anticipation for her future.
This feeling was very magical. It was as if a ray of light had appeared in front of her. It was just like when Wang Teng brought her out of the forest. She felt that her life was about to undergo a second great change.
Wang Teng didn't know what the two of them were thinking. At this moment, he had already opened his Eyes of Truth. He scanned the mountain range and nodded. "Marta Mountain Range. This should be it."
Back then, he had obtained a treasure map from a few dark apparitions. Later on, he had analyzed it with the Blood Race's secret runes and found out that the treasure was in the Marta Mountain Range.
Originally, he didn't care about it. After all, it was a dark apparition's treasure. It was dispensable.
Now, he could use this treasure to complete his plan. However, before that, he had to take a look at the situation first.
With his current strength, it wasn't difficult to find the so-called "ancestor's" treasure.
In the first layer of the Dark Realm, the dark apparitions that could be called "ancestor" were probably at the Demon Lord level. However, his horizons had already exceeded that by a lot.
"Found it!"
Wang Teng scanned the area and couldn't help but frown. He actually couldn't find it.
He didn't believe it and scanned the area a few more times. Then, he gradually found some clues. A look of surprise flashed across his eyes. "It actually opened up another space."
