Chapter 456: Ten Plagues Come, Set off for the Pit
A ray of dawn appeared in the sky, and the snow-capped peaks were bathed in golden morning light.
Ye Zhi slowly opened his eyes and looked around, only to find that there was no one around him. He was in an ice-blue cave with upside-down ice ridges.
This cave seems to be a bedroom carved out of ice, with ice beds, ice chairs, freezers, and every piece of furniture emitting cold air.
Recalling the scene of last night, when he embraced Gray and fell with the meteor shower, Ye Zhi smiled, shook his head, stood up and left the cave.
To Yeats's surprise, the outside world was in a hazy darkness, with stars hanging in the sky and beautiful silver light bands flowing slowly in the galaxy, like a dream.
Gray stood in the snow, her ponytail flying in the cold wind, looking up at the stars, a sweet smile on her face.
Hearing the rustling sound of footsteps on the snow, Gray looked back, her cheeks slightly flushed, revealing her snow-white teeth, and smiled, "Yeats, this is my field!"
As she spoke, Gray stretched out her finger and gently waved it towards the starry sky, and a shooting star suddenly streaked across the night sky.
Then, she raised her palms again, and a bright moon broke through the dark clouds and rose into the night sky, and the silver light fell into her sparkling eyes.
Mammon wagged his tail, followed Ye Zhi, and said in surprise:
"This field...why does it look familiar?"
"Because it may be similar to the Silver Dragon Queen's [Starry Night] domain." Ye Zhi looked at Gray who was having a lot of fun controlling the meteors under the starry sky, and rubbed his chin. "With Gray's blood power, the same domain as the Silver Dragon Queen, when she uses it, the power will be even more amazing."
Thanks to last night's meteor shower, Grey mobilized the power of the star realm and successfully advanced to the Seventh Ring Sanctuary.
The Golden Dragon King mentioned before that Grey was a descendant of the Black Dragon King Nidhogg. If she wanted to set foot in the realm of the Eight-ringed True God, she would have to go to the [Valley of the Dead] in the underworld to look for clues related to the Black Dragon King.
The underworld is the realm of the goddess of death.
This goddess is as powerful as the moonlight and the dark night. There is even a legend that the goddess of death is the most powerful deity.
Since you are going to visit the underworld, sooner or later you will meet the goddess of death face to face.
"I've already been chosen by the Five Gods, so having one more identity as the Chosen One of the God of Death wouldn't be too much..." Ye Zhi pondered.
As if she had had enough fun, Gray waved her hand to release the domain and said happily: "Ye Zhi, let's go, let's go meet the elders and tell them the good news of my promotion!"
Ye Zhi smiled and said, "When you were promoted last night, they were watching from the side the whole time, but they didn't let you notice."
The three elders who were watching in secret could hide it from Gray, but they could not avoid Ye Zhi's perception.
Gray was stunned for a moment, her cheeks suddenly red as if bleeding, she lowered her head and stammered, "So last night... everything we said... did they hear it?"
"I can't hear it because your domain is blocking it." Ye Zhi said, "But I have forgotten it. Why don't you say it again?"
Gray took a deep breath and said bluntly: "I said, I want to stay with you, Ye Zhi, for a hundred lifetimes and become gods together!"
Accompany... for ten thousand years...
Ye Zhi smiled slightly, and couldn't help but feel longing and motivation in his heart.
To become a true God together with Gray, this is exactly the direction I want to pursue.
Of course, in addition to Gray, the strength of other companions cannot be left behind...
"Gray has successfully ascended to the Holy Realm. I must also go visit Hildreth who is practicing with Brunhilde." Ye Zhi thought to himself, "With me by her side, I can also provide some help for her to ascend to the Holy Realm."
With the trip to the Bottomless Pit imminent and Gray having successfully been promoted, Yeats prepares to leave Dragon Country.
The two said goodbye to the three elders.
Although they were extremely reluctant, the three elders also knew that Yeats and Gray both had their own missions to accomplish.
Preparing for the upcoming day of apocalypse is not only for the dragon clan, but also for the millions of creatures who are unwilling to surrender and abandon their own beliefs.
Before leaving, three giant dragons stopped on three snow-capped peaks, looking down at Yeats and Gray with earnest eyes, giving them careful instructions.
"When you leave Dragon Country, remember to come back often... The elders have always been your strongest support." The green dragon said hoarsely.
"Here is a space ring, Gray, you should take it with you..." The red dragon's eyes were filled with reluctance, a mixture of pain and farewell.
"Don't be sad about parting. Sorrow will damage your appearance." Lan Long said calmly.
"I don't know who knew that Gray and Ye Zhi were leaving, and cried in front of the mirror alone." Green Dragon said with a sidelong glance.
Gray wiped the tip of her nose, finally controlling her emotions, and held out her hand, saying, "Then I'm leaving, elders!"
The green dragon nodded slightly, and carefully placed its huge dragon claws on the back of Gray's hand. The red dragon and the blue dragon followed suit.
Then, the three dragons and Gray turned their attention to Yeats.
The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!
Ye Zhi pointed at himself and asked in surprise: "I want one too?"
"Aren't you part of Dragon Country?" the green dragon asked.
Ye Zhi was stunned for a moment, and a warm feeling rose in his heart. Under the gaze of the three dragons and Gray, he walked forward and placed his hand under Gray's palm.
"Yes, the Dragon Country is also my hometown." Ye Zhi smiled.
*Roland Palace.
Louis frowned as he reviewed the paperwork.
"Locust plagues have occurred in all parts of Roland. Swarms of locusts are like hurricanes passing through. Not only do they eat all the food, but they also eat up the flesh and blood of the people."
Violet, the leader of the Dragon Eagle Knights, stood beside the Sun King and whispered:
"This is the second natural disaster that has occurred in Roland after the snowstorm... Some missionaries claim that this is a punishment for your disrespect for the gods. If you do not convert to the Church, other disasters will befall Roland..."
Louis sneered, threw down the parchment, and said, "Other disasters? Are you going to send down the Ten Disasters?"
The Ten Plagues refer to the disasters that God brought upon the southern continent, namely, a plague of blood, a plague of frogs, a plague of lice, a plague of flies, a plague of livestock, a plague of boils, a plague of locusts, a plague of darkness, and a plague of the firstborn.
The ten plagues were so cruel that they did not regard humans as living beings at all. However, priests claimed that God was unwilling to destroy Egypt with one plague, but used ten plagues to warn them. This shows God's love and justice.
"Since God is going to send down a natural disaster, we will use our own hands to overcome the disaster... Want the Roland people to surrender? Even God can't do that."
Louis stood up and said coldly: "Have you found out where the locust plague originated?"
"It seems to be a bottomless pit." Violet said, "According to the scriptures, the Nightmare Demon Abaddon not only controls nightmares, but also leads an army of locusts... He is most likely the instigator of this locust plague."
"I will go to the bottomless pit myself and settle all the old and new accounts."
Louis paused for a moment, a figure appeared in front of him, and he ordered: "Also...in my name, invite Mr. Ye Zhi to go with me...after the matter is accomplished, the Roland Royal Family will definitely reward you handsomely!"
