"Are you really the Demon King, Richard Klaus?"
Lilith's eyes widened as she looked at Lin Chade with a complicated expression. Even Dodoro was looking at him expectantly.
Lin Chade remained silent for a while.
"Yes, but I'm only his avatar. Now, I'm another person," Greer replied.
It was a strange feeling. His rationality told him that he was an avatar, but his brain told him that he was Richard.
"This … this can't be real, right? You've lived for at least a thousand years? No, no, you're kidding, right? "
Greer found it hard to accept that the person standing next to him was someone who lived a thousand years ago.
"If you're really the Demon King, where have you been for the past thousand years? Why haven't we heard anything about you? "
Dodoro asked.
Lin Chade shook his head. "I didn't exist for the past thousand years."
"What?"
The three of them did not understand what he was saying. The information in the temple was confusing their minds, and they needed time to accept the information.
"For some reason, I've traveled a thousand years to this point in time. In other words, the present." Lin Chade didn't know what was going on. He had spent hundreds of years studying the passage of time, but he still couldn't find a way to travel through time.
What secrets did Reina have? If she could affect time, then she was the key that the Demon King had been looking for.
Regardless, she was safe with her main body. Once he found her, he would be able to study her.
As Lin Chade thought about it, he suddenly turned back to look at his comical statue. To be able to see his current appearance, it meant that the people who built this place were probably those three fellows. So what was their purpose in building this place? Did they know that history would be covered up?
Lin Chade walked up to the statue. The more he looked at it, the more embarrassed he felt. He picked up a strange-looking sword from the ground and smashed the statue into pieces.
However, at that moment, a black box fell out of the statue. Lin Chade looked down at the box.
The sound of the statue being smashed startled Lilith and the other two. The three of them hurriedly ran over and discovered the smashed statue.
"What are you doing?! This is a historical relic! "
Lilith was a little angry. She felt that the things in the temple were very precious and should not be touched casually.
However, Lin Chade ignored her and bent down to pick up the black box on the ground.
"There's actually something hidden in my statue."
"What is it?"
Lilith walked over.
Lin Chade opened the box forcefully. Inside was a rolled up piece of parchment tied with a red ribbon.
"A note? But why hide it so well? "Lilith asked.
Lin Chade opened the letter. It was filled with notes. "Oh, Master, I'm your disciple, Atos. When you see this letter, I'll probably be dead for a long time.
Haha, don't be sad. I'm already an old man over a hundred years old. Lilith, Qiankun, and the others have all passed on before me. But before Lilith left, she left behind a prophecy.
You will appear in the future, so I built this secret chamber and gave the key to our descendants. I hope you can find this place and stop this world from becoming hell.
When we fought with you, we transformed into gods and peeked into the world of gods, but … "
At this point, the handwriting became messy and blurred. It was no longer words.
"As you can see, we didn't describe it. We can only tell you that they are about to awaken. This world is heading toward destruction. It will happen in your era. Please be sure to close the door."
The letter ended mysteriously, but Lin Chade froze on the spot, his pupils dilating slightly.
"Why is my name on it?" Lilith was confused.
"That's my disciple's companion. She's also called Lilith. She's an excellent magician. Perhaps she's your ancestor," Lin Chade said calmly. He folded the letter and put it in his pocket.
"No way!" Lilith was surprised. Although she was a little surprised to have the same name as her ancestor, she was even more surprised.
Was this man really someone from over a thousand years ago? And he wanted to save the world?
"Then what's with the door in the letter?"
Lin Chade's thoughts were interrupted again. "It involves the power of darkness and light. They are the source of the demons, humans, elves, and dwarves …"
"Hey, how are we supposed to get out of here?"
At this moment, Greer, who was tired of this place, suddenly interrupted him. Only then did everyone remember that the Scarlet Mansion had already disappeared when they came in.
Dodoro was also stunned. If they couldn't get out, what was the point of having so many treasures?
Everyone looked at Lin Chade. Since he knew how to get in, he must know how to get out.
Lin Chade said, "I've lost my mana. I can't take you out."
"What?! Are you kidding me?! Then why did we come in?! "
Greer was on the verge of breaking down. He didn't want to starve to death in this place.
However, Lin Chade said, "Don't worry. Don't forget about this."
With that, he took out a rainbow-colored stone.
"A strengthening stone?"
… …
White sheep were scattered all over the vast grassland. A gentle breeze blew past, stirring up waves in the grassland.
At this time, a girl wearing a long skirt made of animal hide was standing on top of a protruding rock. She wore long black boots and let the wind blow her hair.
With her right hand on her waist, she gazed into the distance. Her deep blue eyes sparkled like gemstones.
At this moment, something was moving quickly in the grassland. A line appeared in the grass, and a mechanical ball suddenly appeared. It had eyes and a mouth, and it had hands and feet. Now, it was wearing a bit of animal skin, and it looked a little strange.
"Princess, it's getting late. We should go back."
The girl nodded. She seemed to have something on her mind.
The mechanical ball looked in the direction she was looking at. There was nothing there. The sun was setting behind her, and there was only the dark horizon.
"What's wrong?" Mister Ball asked with concern.
Reina shook her head. "It's nothing. It's just … never mind. I'm fine. Let's go back."
After saying that, she jumped down from the rock and walked towards the flock of sheep.
Mister Ball looked at her back in silence and couldn't help but sigh.
"This girl hasn't smiled in a long time."
The yellow candlelight illuminated the small room. The table was filled with roasted meat. Aunt Jiuhua's cooking was delicious, but Reina didn't have much of an appetite. She only ate half of the roasted lamb leg.
Seeing her unhappy appearance, her uncle's family was also worried. They thought of ways to make her happy every day. Reina understood that she had caused a lot of trouble for her uncle's family, but she just couldn't be happy.
Moreover, she had lived here for more than ten years. Why did she still feel unfamiliar with her uncle's home?
At night, she had a strange dream. She dreamed that she was in the deep sea and saw some terrifying monsters. She woke up with sweat all over her head. She rubbed her face and looked haggard.
She didn't know why, but she felt empty inside. It was as if she had lost something. She couldn't calm down.
