"I can't believe you actually asked Lissa to do such a dangerous thing."
Facing her nominal father, Aili didn't have the slightest courtesy. Her expression was indifferent as if she was facing a stranger.
Because she inherited the qualities of her grandmother and psychic, as well as her mother's ability to adapt, Lissa was a rather rare "hybrid ability user". She had the "ability to see through the past". Not only could she easily find buried ruins, but she could also decipher inscriptions that couldn't be deciphered. Although Lissa had been invited by universities or specialized organizations to do similar work before, it was still rare for her to come directly to the excavation site.
Moreover, Aili could feel that the thing hidden behind the door was definitely not simple.
"It's fine if you dig your own grave to receive your retribution, but you have to drag your daughter down with you? What kind of mentality is this? "
"It's the request of the sponsor. I can't do anything about it. After all, ultrasonic detection and search magic don't work on this ruin. Frankly speaking, we're at our wit's end. "
"Then let's go home."
Aili snorted in response to Xiao Ya City's explanation.
"In the end, you're just a slave to capitalism. Indulging in digging graves won't end well."
Hearing Aili's words, Xiao Ya City didn't answer. He just sighed and looked at Lissa, who had changed into a witch costume.
"Alright, let's go."
After saying that, he turned around and walked into the ruin without looking back.
Soon, Xiao Ya City, Aili, Lissa, and the woman named Riana entered the ruin. Unlike the dilapidated tomb that everyone imagined, the whole ruin was almost intact. It was even glowing faintly and looked quite beautiful.
"It's so beautiful. It doesn't feel like a tomb …."
Seeing this, Yuan Shisha could not help but lament in a low voice. Xiao Ya City explained from the side.
"Instead of calling this a cemetery, it's more like a temple."
"God?"
Hearing this, Lissa looked at her father curiously.
"In other words, there's an ancient god sleeping here?"
"Haha."
Hearing his daughter's question, Xiao Ya City muttered.
"It's not that noble. It's also called a god. If you guess it's a god, it's more or less the same."
"Doctor!"
Riana furrowed her brows and wanted to interrupt him, but the latter merely smiled and shrugged.
"After all, since we're already here, there's no point in hiding anymore. I'm not trying to scare them. After all, this is the truth."
"So you know that there's something dangerous sealed here, but you still insist on opening it? What? Are the two of you anti-human sociopaths? "
Aili stared coldly at Xiaoya City and Riana, her hand already gripping the magic wand.
"Maybe some clues about the Fourth True Ancestor are hidden here. Don't you think it's interesting?"
"I don't think so. I think you're more dangerous because you want to destroy humanity because it's fun."
After staring at Xiao Ya City for a moment, Ailee gripped her magic wand tightly.
"I'm going to bring Xiao Sha back. I don't think it's necessary to open such a dangerous relic."
"Oh?"
Hearing this, Xiaoya City narrowed his eyes and stared at her.
"We're already here, and you're still saying such things?"
"It's precisely because we're here that I have to say it. I'm not the slightest bit interested in your grave-digging behavior. I have nothing to say to people like you who try to bring the entire world and humanity into danger because of your own selfishness. I've long stopped caring about your life and death, but Xiao Sha is still my cute little sister. I still have to ensure her safety. "
Aili snorted lightly, raised the magic wand in her hand, and pointed it at Xiaoya City. Of course, she knew what Xiaoya City meant. This cheap father of hers had been excavating all over the world (to put it bluntly, he was robbing graves and exhuming corpses) in search of clues about "Holy Annihilation". And the so-called Holy Annihilation rumor began in ancient times, caused by the Fourth True Ancestor. It was a terrifying battle between the original sinners and all the ancestors of the demon race. Every time a Holy Annihilation occurred, it was a turning point in history. That was why Xiaoya City was so obsessed with archaeology.
But if it was Aili …
"If the ancestors knew that the threat and calamity that they spent so much effort and sacrificed countless lives to seal was opened by their descendants for their own selfishness, perhaps they would rather the world be destroyed. Of course, a grave robber like you, Mr. Xiaoya City, wouldn't understand this feeling. "
"You're making me sound like a cold-blooded and heartless monster."
"I'm not exactly right, but I'm not far from it. If you want to die, please go ahead. If you die, I will do my duty and burn incense at your graves, but if you want to drag us down with you, then forget it."
"Please, please wait a moment, Miss Aili."
In the face of this sudden change, Riana was a little surprised and nervous.
"We're not doing this purely out of curiosity, but because we have a very deep reason …"
"Status, reputation, wealth, in the end, they're all extremely boring things. Maybe they're meaningful to you, but I don't see any benefits for Xiao Sha and me. "
Aili glanced at Riana, then retracted her gaze.
"Xiao Sha, let's go."
"…"
However, facing the dangerous atmosphere between her sister and father, Xiao Sha didn't react in the slightest. This made Aili frown. She turned to look at Xiao Sha, only to see the originally lively Xiao Sha staring blankly at the sealed stone door. In the next moment, a series of complicated and unfamiliar foreign language came out of Xiao Sha's mouth.
"Seems like the spirit summoning is a success."
Seeing this scene, Xiaoya City chuckled, while Aili glanced at him coldly. This was the reason why Xiao Sha could decipher the ancient inscriptions and open the ruins. She could communicate with the remnant will in the ruins through spirit summoning, thus understanding and correctly grasping the opening of the ruins. After all, the person who built the ruins definitely knew how to open the sealed door, right?
The next moment, the stone door disappeared without warning, as if it had never existed. Looking at this scene, Riana couldn't help but cover her mouth in shock.
"It can't be, a seal that even a War Monarch magitek can't unlock in such a short time …"
As the stone door that had blocked everyone's way disappeared, a bone-chilling cold immediately rushed towards them. However, Hu Sha did not seem to feel the cold at all and continued to walk forward. Looking at this scene, Ai Li could only clench her teeth and follow. Xiao Sha was currently in a state of communicating with a certain will in the ruins, so she couldn't forcibly wake it up. Otherwise, there would be big problems. So even though she was worried, she could only follow them in.
In the circular space was an ice coffin. Inside the ice coffin was a girl with long blonde hair who looked about the same age as Aili and Xiao Sha. Hu Jinsha slowly walked up to the girl. A cold mist gradually dispersed and enveloped Hu Jinsha within it ….
"So you're planning to use your daughter as a sacrifice to resurrect the demon king?"
"Of course not. In fact, it's …"
However, before Xiaoya City could finish speaking, the entire ruin suddenly began to shake as if there was an earthquake. At the same time, Aili and Xiaoya City stopped talking and turned to look up. Then, Xiaoya City frowned.
"The situation seems to be a little troublesome. I'll leave Xiao Sha to you. I'll be back soon."
"It doesn't matter if you don't come back. I'll take care of Xiao Sha."
Xiaoya City let out a bitter laugh when he heard Aili's indifferent reply. He turned around and rushed out of the tomb with his gun. Riana lowered her head sadly and said, "I'm very sorry to have dragged you into this.
"I'm very sorry to have dragged you into this, but please don't blame the doctor. He's the one who feels the worst."
"I can't tell. But this is your problem. Solve it yourself."
"That's right. Don't worry, I'll protect you."
Riana lifted her head and looked ahead. The entrance of the ruins had been blasted open, and a group of people barged in. They weren't strangers, but the soldiers who were in charge of guarding this place that Ellie and Lissa had met in the camp not long ago.
But these soldiers weren't traitors or anything else. Just by looking at their zombie-like eyes and badly mutilated bodies, one could tell that they were already dead.
At the same time, Riana took off the bracelet on her wrist. Her eyes emitted a scarlet radiance and sharp fangs emerged from her mouth.
Then, the battle began.
Riana raised her hands. Then, a golden and silver giant wolf emerged from her shadow and launched an attack on the zombie-like army. That was the vampire's most powerful technique – Familiars. They were summoned beasts raised in the blood of vampires, and had a will of magic. Powerful familiars possessed unparalleled strength. Just like the two before them.
Aili hugged her sister and hid in a corner. After casting a powerful armour, she watched the show. Under Riana's control, the two familiars transformed into a wild storm that slaughtered in and out of the zombies. Not long after, the hundreds of fully armed zombies were annihilated.
"Sorry, it took a bit of effort ….."
Riana was a little tired, but still nodded to Aili. Xiao Sha had already woken up. She curled up in Aili's arms in fear as she watched the scene unfold before her. Ai Li looked at the battlefield before her quietly and asked.
"These attackers shouldn't be ordinary people right?"
"That's right, they're terrorists. I'm afraid they're from the Black Death faction – Orc supremacists."
"Ah … .it's those retarded extremists again."
Hearing this, Ailee instantly lost interest. Although the world was still relatively peaceful and balanced, there were still many conflicts between the various races. For example, racists were the most prevalent, and the Black Death Emperor was one of them. They claimed that the Orcs were the most outstanding race among the Nephilim race. They even demanded to abandon the Holy Land Treaty and attempted to rule over all other races except the Orcs.
Of course, there were also discriminationists among humans who wanted to "protect good citizens and eliminate all demons". They believed that the decrease in crimes committed by the demons after the conclusion of the Holy Land Treaty was just a scam made up by the government to fabricate public opinion. It was a conspiracy to make humans surrender to the demons — there were mentally retarded everywhere, and all races were not uncommon.
They were all the same.
All of a sudden, as though he had sensed something, he grabbed Aili tightly.
"Elder sister, it seems like something terrifying is coming! It's so scary! Run!!! "
Boom!!
But before Xiao Sha's voice trailed off, the outer wall of the stone chamber suddenly collapsed. A three-meter-tall dog-headed Orc rushed in with large strides. It looked at the girl and the ice coffin in front of it and cracked its mouth into a ferocious smile.
"So you're here, Riana Karjana. You let a mere human fight for you while you hide in the cellar like a wild rabbit. You're really like the daughter of the famous lazy and weak Karjana. You're as timid as your master. "
"Shut up! I won't allow you to insult my father. Bite him to pieces! Eclipse Wolf! "
Following Riana's roar, the giant golden wolf pounced at the Orc like a bolt of lightning. But unlike the zombies, the Orc easily blocked the golden wolf's attack with its right hand.
Riana was dumbfounded at the sight of this. A mere Orc could actually block a Spawn with just its body …. That was simply impossible, unless ….
As if to verify Riana's guess, the orc's body suddenly swelled up and turned into a huge ferocious beast. A tremendous amount of magic erupted from it, far surpassing the amount of Riana's Spawn. Riana's face turned pale when she sensed that.
"Mythical Beast Transformation?!"
Riana would never have imagined that the Orc would possess such a terrifying technique. Mythical Beast Transformation was a special ability that only a few high-ranking Orcs possessed. They could use the tremendous amount of magic to transform themselves into a Mythical Beast, a mythical creature that could rival angels or dragons ….
Looking at Riana's pale face, the Divine Beast Orc let out a complacent laugh.
"We're different from vampires like you who can't do anything without the help of summoned beasts. We're the descendants of demon wolves who swallowed the heart of giants and were born. That's why Orcs are demons of the highest rank. Experience the power of the strongest race!"
"Grrr …."
Facing the threat of the Orc, Riana gritted her teeth again and raised her left hand.
"Bite it to pieces, Eclipse Wolf!"
Soon, another silver-white wolf appeared again and launched an attack at the Orc. Under Riana's control, the two Spawn gave up on defense and launched a frenzied attack, gradually forcing the Orc back. Even so, the Orc showed no fear. Instead, it laughed wildly.
"Hahahaha, although your family has fallen, you're still a noble of the Warlord realm. You're tenacious, but this is the end!"
Following the Orc's roar, several zombies suddenly emerged from the rubble. They aimed their weapons at Riana and pulled the trigger.
Riana was fully focused on controlling the Spawn. She had no power to protect herself at all. She could only watch helplessly as the zombies fired their bullets. Then ….
"Get rid of your weapons!"
With a low roar, the weapons in the zombies' hands flew into the air as if they were hit by a transparent stick.
"Ignite!"
The erupting flames condensed into a giant serpent that instantly devoured the zombies in front of it, turning them into ashes. Riana could no longer hold on. She collapsed to the ground. The Spawn that had lost its magic supply turned into ashes and vanished completely.
But the Orc did not attack immediately. Instead, it slowly raised its head and looked at a corner. There, wearing a witch's hat and holding a magic wand, was staring at the Orc without the slightest fear on her face. Behind her, Hu Sha's face was pale and he was trembling.
"A human? And a witch at that …. You don't think you can stop me with just your strength, do you? "
"I'm not interested in what you want to do, but if you want to hurt me and my sister, that's a different matter altogether."
"Interesting."
Hearing this, the Orc grinned, revealing its sharp teeth.
"Well then, let me see what you've got, human!!"
Roaring angrily, the Orc charged straight at the two of them.
Facing the Orc that was surrounded by powerful magic, Aili took a deep breath and raised her magic wand.
"Call, Divine Guard!!"
The next moment, a silver-white light shot into the sky, illuminating the entire tomb.
