Chapter 590: The Andre Family Must Be Slaughtered (10,000)
"Nine hundred and forty-eight years ago!"
"Moron Valley!"
When Philomena's deep and hoarse voice entered his ears, Ron's expression suddenly changed. He had heard from Philomena a lot about what she had experienced.
Before the blasphemer faked his death, he had already made quite appropriate arrangements for his women and children.
Originally, Archibald was planning to let these people enter a forbidden area in the Dusk Continent.
There are a total of four forbidden areas in Dusk Continent.
Forest of Buried Souls.
Black Lake.
Blood Abyss! The last place is the Sea of Silence! These four forbidden areas are more dangerous than the last.
Among them, the Soul Burial Forest is the secluded place of the Andre family and the lair of most of the guardians of destiny.
All living beings on the Dusk Continent, unless they are direct blood relatives of the Andre family, even if they are from a side branch, will risk their lives if they want to enter the Soul Burial Forest.
The structure of the Soul Burial Forest itself is extremely special. It is a natural psychedelic magic circle. Once you stay in the Soul Burial Forest, no matter how powerful you are, you will be quickly affected by the mysterious aura in the Soul Burial Forest and quickly lose your direction.
Eventually, due to exhaustion, hunger and thirst, they died of exhaustion, starvation or thirst in the Soul Burial Forest.
Moreover, even after death, the soul cannot be liberated.
The souls of all the dead will be trapped in the Soul Burial Forest, and will never dissipate or be able to escape. Under the constant torture of the Soul Burial Forest, these souls will become more brutal and violent. They are jealous of all normal lives and will become another barrier in the Soul Burial Forest leading to the Andre family's lair.
Without any orders, these souls that have been trapped in the Soul Burial Forest for decades, hundreds of years, or even thousands of years will take the initiative to attack other creatures that break into the Soul Burial Forest and drag these creatures into the same hell as themselves.
It seems that only in this way can their painful souls gain a little comfort.
Perhaps, only those whose existence has been registered in fate can have the opportunity to survive in the Soul Burial Forest.
And this is the only life among the nine deaths.
The Soul Burial Forest is already so terrifying, but the other three forbidden areas are even more terrifying than the Soul Burial Forest.
If the Soul Burial Forest is a place where there is a high risk of death, although not many people can survive, then the Black Lake, the Blood Abyss and the Silent Sea are really places where there is no chance of survival.
Black Lake, located at the southernmost tip of Dusk Continent.
It is impossible to estimate how many years the Black Lake has existed, but it has existed as far back as human history can record.
It is very large, about the size of an entire medium-sized city.
The reason why it is called Black Lake is not because the water in the lake is black. On the contrary, the Black Lake is full of burning red magma, emitting despairing high temperatures for years.
From this perspective, perhaps the words "Lake of Fire" are more suitable for its name.
It is said that the original location of the Black Lake was actually a volcano.
However, the energy released during a certain volcanic eruption was so terrifying that it shattered the entire volcano and razed it to the ground. The boiling magma also flooded a large area around it, eventually turning it into a magma lake.
There are also rumors that the Black Lake was actually formed when the daughter of the God of Fire in heaven came down to the mortal world. The power of the goddess was so strong that it led to the formation of a magma lake.
Just because the daughter of the God of Fire was wearing a pitch-black dress, the original Fire Lake was renamed Black Lake.
These were just two rumors and should not be taken seriously, but Ron at least knew that the second rumor was absolutely wrong.
After all, according to the information Ron currently has, no god in either the Cemetery of the Gods or the Heaven is married, let alone having a daughter.
Therefore, the goddess theory is pure nonsense.
But no matter what, the existence of the Black Lake itself cannot be faked.
Because the burning magma was so terrifying, no one who approached the Black Lake could survive.
It can be said that even powerful magicians dare not step into the territory of the Black Lake. The terrifying high temperature will quickly melt the magic shield. Even a legendary strong man will not be able to withstand it for a few seconds and will become a mummy. Then, he will be completely turned into ashes.
As the rumor spread, the story of the goddess became more and more outrageous.
It is said that the most popular saying now is that the Daughter of the God of Fire has always been in the center of the Black Lake, waiting for her destined partner.
No matter who you are, as long as you can pass the tests and reach the center of the Black Lake, you can see the legendary Daughter of the God of Fire. Although no one has succeeded so far, everyone knows the appearance of the Daughter of the God of Fire.
Legend has it that the daughter of the God of Fire is so beautiful that just one look at her is enough to make any living being deeply obsessed.
Once you gain the favor of the Daughter of the God of Fire, you will instantly obtain the inheritance of the God of Fire, possess the most powerful strength in the Dusk Continent, and have endless life.
All kinds of rumors, in short, no matter how outrageous they are, it doesn't matter whether anyone believes them or not. As long as they are exaggerated enough, that's enough.
It's true, although these rumors seem to be pure nonsense to Ron, there are actually quite a few people who believe them. Every year, countless practitioners are buried in the magma because of these nonsense rumors.
Compared to the Black Lake and the Soul Burial Forest, the Blood Abyss is more mysterious.
The most mysterious thing about the Blood Abyss is that no one even knows where it is.
I also have no idea where the rumor that Blood Abyss will become one of the four forbidden areas came from.
No one knows where the Blood Abyss is, no one knows what the Blood Abyss looks like, and no one knows how dangerous the Blood Abyss is or what kind of monsters live in it.
But such a place where nothing is known has been included in the list of the four forbidden areas, and it is the most mysterious one among them.
As for the final Silent Sea, it is the deepest part of the legendary ocean.
The specific location doesn't matter at all. According to rumors, as long as you go out to sea, keep moving in a fixed direction and don't look back, you will reach the Silent Sea sooner or later.
It is said that goose-feather-like ashes are floating there all day long, like heavy snow, covering the sky and the sun.
Fishermen who go out to sea to fish often disappear inexplicably. It is said that they accidentally enter the Silent Sea, and those lives that enter the Silent Sea have never appeared again.
Similarly, the Silent Sea is an existence that all pirates fear.
According to rumors, when sailing in the deep sea, sometimes some extremely strange situations may occur. For example, pale fog may suddenly float on the sea, or gray-black smoke may rise.
Whenever this happens, it is a critical moment for the pirates' survival.
If you fail to escape from the thick fog in time, you will be dragged into the Sea of Silence by some mysterious force, and then you will never have the chance to leave.
For thousands of years, there have been countless stories of pirates being swallowed by the Sea of Silence.
However, in Ron's opinion, this so-called Silent Ash Sea was inexplicably similar to the situation in the Cemetery of the Gods.
Gray weather.
Ashes are floating in the sky all the time like heavy snow... This description is too similar to the cemetery of the gods.
Of course, Ron had never been to this place, and whether the Sea of Silence was the cemetery of the gods was still a mystery.
The blasphemer Archibald wanted to protect his wife, daughter, and descendants, so he naturally had to arrange a place that was secret and safe enough for them.
There is no need to consider the Soul Burial Forest, as that is the home base of the Andre family.
To be placed there is like a sheep walking into the tiger's mouth.
Black Lake is also not suitable.
That place is full of magma and is not suitable for normal people to survive.
The Sea of Silence is not a solution either. Even with the strength of the blasphemer Archibald, he is not quite sure where the Sea of Silence is.
The real retreat that Archibald arranged for his women and descendants was in the Blood Abyss.
That’s right, Blood Abyss.
This most mysterious and terrifying place in the legend, the Blood Abyss, was finally found by Archibald. No one knew its location, no one knew what dangers it contained, and no one knew what creatures lived inside. It was a completely forbidden place where no one knew anything.
The Blood Abyss is indeed dangerous.
It is said that in the Blood Abyss lives a group of monsters that feed on blood.
These monsters usually sleep in the blood abyss. When a living creature breaks into the blood abyss, these monsters will be activated.
Even those at the peak of the legendary level, or even those at the realm of destruction, would have all the blood in their body drained within a few seconds, turning into a stiff mummy.
Since this was a retreat prepared for his women and children, Archibald would naturally not allow such danger to exist.
Those monsters were unlucky to have encountered such an unreasonable creature as the Blasphemer. He lived well in his own nest and slept soundly when he had nothing to eat. He never left the Blood Abyss to harm the lives on the Dusk Continent.
The result was that this group of honest monsters were killed by Archibald without a single one left, and they were directly extinct.
The concealment of the Blood Abyss itself can provide quite good security.
In fact, during the first ten years or so when they lived in the Blood Abyss, Archibald's women and children were indeed safe and sound.
But not everyone can adapt to this kind of life.
Although the Blood Abyss is safe, it is too boring.
Here, you can't see the rotation of the sun and the moon, and you can't feel the passage of time.
All I face every day are familiar faces.
Because of the seal that Archibald had set up in the Blood Abyss, not even a bug could fly in, let alone humans. Even though the storage ring was filled with everything needed for food, clothing and daily necessities, this kind of life had become a torment after a long period of time.
No one knew when it started, but the blood abyss that originally protected them turned into a cage that bound them.
From this perspective, the fact that the Andre family has been able to occupy the Soul Burial Forest for thousands of years is quite an achievement.
Not everyone can adapt to a secluded life.
More than a decade of peaceful life has already made these people restless.
Many people have begun to feel that the danger has passed, and there is no point in staying here any longer. They increasingly miss the days outside the Blood Abyss, the rotation of the sun and the moon, the changing of the seasons, and the surging crowds of people...
Some people have begun to want to leave the Blood Abyss and return to normal life.
After all, the restrictions set up by Archibald only prevented other lives from entering the Blood Abyss, but did not prevent people in the Blood Abyss from leaving.
At the beginning, the voices wanting to leave the Blood Abyss were not too loud. There were only a very small number of people instigating, and with the suppression of some prestigious people, the problem was not too big.
The situation in the entire Blood Abyss is basically still under control.
But as time went on, the restlessness began to grow louder and louder, and the voices wanting to leave the Blood Abyss became louder and louder.
Gradually, the situation got out of control.
In the seventeenth year of living in the Blood Abyss, a public vote was held in the Blood Abyss, and the final result was that more than 90% of people agreed to leave the Blood Abyss.
At this point, leaving the Blood Abyss is a foregone conclusion.
There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!
But at this moment, the people living in the Blood Abyss have no idea that this departure will not lead to the free and happy life they want, but to hell.
There are thousands of people living in the Blood Abyss.
Such a large-scale migration is actually not a simple task, but it only took less than a week for so many people to complete the process. After a week, everyone had left the Blood Abyss.
Just after these people left the Blood Abyss, the Blood Abyss disappeared directly behind them.
This forbidden place is full of mysteries, and its entrance seems to appear anywhere on the Dusk Continent.
But people nowadays simply don’t have time to care about these little things. The only thing to be thankful for is that although they have left the Blood Abyss, these people have not completely lost their minds.
They did not return directly to live in human cities.
After all, although ten or twenty years have passed, the scenes of being hunted down are still vivid in people’s minds.
Once they appear in public, who knows if they will be noticed by those who are chasing them.
They chose a secluded valley, the Moron Valley, as their new settlement.
They still try their best to avoid contact with life outside, but at least they can see the scorching sun above their heads, the stars and the moon at night, feel the spring breeze, the summer heat, the winter snow, see the birds flying in the sky, and catch the animals on the ground...
For these people, such a life has made them quite satisfied.
However, these people ultimately underestimated the repairman's determination to maintain the world line.
I underestimated the repairman's vigilance against Archibald.
Even though the repairman didn't know at that time that Archibald was just faking his death, he still wouldn't allow any of the repairman's descendants to survive in this world. All those who shouldn't exist or appear would be destroyed.
In the third year that these people lived in Morun Valley, a group of mysterious people appeared at the entrance of the valley.
He is the agent of God and the guardian of destiny.
Although they have set up powerful restrictions in the Moron Valley, how can their methods compare with Archibald's?
The ban was easily broken and the killing began.
Even though more than nine hundred years had passed, everything that had happened was still so clear in Philomena's mind. She could not forget the faces of every enemy, the scene of blood splattering, the screams filled with pain, despair and regret.
The old man in front of him with white hair and beard was actually one of the leaders of the invaders.
Philomena remembered it very clearly. Her brother, who tried to protect her so that she could survive, was hit on the chest by this old man. The next moment, his entire body and soul were torn into pieces.
Hatred churned in Philomena's chest.
For more than nine hundred years, a man traveled alone in the Dusk Continent.
Philomena thought that time would wear everything down.
In the past, no matter how deep the hatred was, it would eventually be smoothed out by time.
She couldn't remember how long it had been since she thought about what had happened.
However, the moment she saw the old man in front of her, the memories that had been buried in the dust suddenly surged out like a tide, filling Philomena's mind... It turned out that hatred had never disappeared.
Hatred is just carefully hidden, constantly accumulating and fermenting.
When this hatred erupts again, it is bound to be as fierce as a volcanic eruption.
After hearing what Philomena said, the old man's cloudy eyes first flashed with confusion, and then quickly returned to normal. He nodded slightly: "I remember, it turned out to be you, little girl. It's been a while since I last saw you."
His tone was as calm as ever.
It didn't feel like a conversation between enemies with a blood feud, but more like a quiet chat between two old friends.
"I thought you were already dead." Suddenly, the old man's voice sounded a little regretful: "What a pity, what a pity. You and your brothers and sisters were all talented. What a pity, what a pity."
The old man said "what a pity" four times in a row.
It can be seen that he really felt some regret in his heart about what had happened.
In the Dusk Continent, there are countless people who are called geniuses.
But in the old man's eyes, those so-called geniuses are nothing but a bunch of mediocre fools.
He has very high standards and looks down upon those so-called geniuses outside. Any collateral relative of the Andre family can be called a genius.
In the old man's eyes, there are very few people who can truly be called geniuses, and there are only a few even among the direct members of the Andre family.
However, no matter how proud the old man was, he had to admit that the descendants of Archibald, the blasphemer, were truly a group of monsters, and every one of those children deserved the word genius.
It can be said without exaggeration that it is a great joy for any family to have so many talented backers.
As long as they can give themselves a few decades, this family will be able to become a first-rate family in the Dusk Continent.
If we could have a hundred years or so, maybe we could compete with the Andre Family. Except for the foundation, which might be a little inferior, I'm afraid that other aspects are not much inferior to the Andre Family.
It’s a pity that they are the descendants of blasphemers and are destined not to exist in this world.
What’s even more regrettable is that these young people are half Andre family bloodline.
You know, because of the close-kin marriage, the Andre family has fewer and fewer normal offspring in the family. If there can be such a group of excellent fresh blood to replenish the family, the prosperity of the family can continue for hundreds of years.
But, as fate would have it, the Andre family had neither the power nor the qualifications to refuse.
At first everyone thought they were all killed, but unexpectedly there was still a little girl alive... But, since she has appeared, death is only a matter of time.
"Hey, you shouldn't have shown up." The old man shook his head and sighed.
If Philomena had been able to hide well, she might have died of old age.
But now that she has appeared, it won't be long before her life ends.
The old man exhaled, glanced at Philomena, then stretched out his right hand and lightly tapped where Philomena was.
Chirping and chattering.
In an instant, a noisy sound like ice cracking was heard.
All I saw was that right in front of the old man's body, the space suddenly cracked, and the cracked space was still spreading towards Philomena's position at a very fast speed, like a long river.
On Philomena's pretty face, there was only a twisted, hideous, angry and hateful smile. The Death Spear had already appeared in her palm. The spear seemed to be oppressed by the terrifying energy and made a buzzing sound.
The next moment, the spear suddenly slipped out of his hand, and with a buzzing sound, a circular hole instantly appeared in the air.
This dark spear, with a long tail of flame, shot towards the direction where the old man was like a meteor.
In an instant, the spear had reached the location where the space cracked.
The spear tried to penetrate the cracked area of space and then directly pierce the heart of the old man behind.
But at this moment, the gap in strength between the two sides was fully demonstrated.
There was only a ding sound, and just in front of the crack in space, the spear seemed to have encountered an impenetrable barrier and stopped in place instantly.
Instead, the long river of space fragments created by the old man was still spreading towards Philomena.
Click, click, click…
A crisp sound exploded in the air.
The Spear of Death is the most advanced legendary weapon, and it has even been enhanced to level thirteen. Its power is self-evident.
But even such a powerful weapon could not withstand the impact of space cracks.
A crack has begun to appear on the gun.
And this crack was just the beginning, and more and more cracks appeared.
In just a short moment, the entire spear of death was covered with dense cracks.
Snap!
