Ruoyu sighed, "This name is indeed strange, but if you understand a few things, you will understand why we call ourselves that."
"As people who live at the bottom of the dark kingdom, we are struggling between life and death every day. However, although we are humble and can only crawl in the endless darkness, there are endless numbers like the gravel of the Ganges River, which is the basis of the entire dark kingdom. The cornerstone of the pyramid. We are fighting for freedom in the hope that one day we can overthrow the Eternal Night Council and take our fate into our own hands!"
The woman's last few words were quite impassioned, Qianye raised her eyebrows, "Are you all human?"
"No, human beings are just a part. Among us, there are werewolves, blood races, and even demons. Race doesn't matter, what matters is that we have a common belief, that is to overthrow the Eternal Night Council!" Ruo Yu seemed a little excited .
"What is your mission here?"
Ruoyu hesitated for a while, looked at Qianye's face, and slowed down his speech, as if he was carefully choosing his words, "Look for potential rebels, pull them into our organization, and then train them. When the members continue to grow, we will also growing accordingly."
"So, if I kill Brudo, I will be your enemy?" Qianye's voice revealed a bit of killing intent.
"Why did we come to this point?" Ruoyu asked back, "At least in terms of overthrowing the Evernight Council, our interests are the same, aren't we?"
Qianye pondered for a moment, put away the twin flowers, "You go, go back and tell Brudo my decision. As for your organization, don't operate in my territory from now on."
Ruoyu was stunned when he heard this, and immediately defended, "But our existence will not hinder you in the slightest! The Eternal Night Council should be the common enemy. I think we can cooperate in many places."
Qianye tapped the table twice with his fingers, and said unmoved, "Maybe, but I'm not interested right now, let's talk about it later when something happens."
After Ruoyu left, Qianye sat alone in the tent and meditated.
He instinctively doesn't like organizations like the creepers in the dark. Their ideals sound lofty, and their power may be quite large. However, setting the goal to overthrow the Eternal Night Council, which has several giants in charge, is undoubtedly a dream.
Besides, what happens after it is overthrown
The meaning of freedom is too broad, it is really a term that is only suitable for empty talk. Who knows what will happen if such an organization is allowed to operate in its own territory.
As for the possible retaliation after clearing their power, Qianye is not very afraid. This is something that any lord will inevitably experience in the process of controlling the territory. There will be other people and things without creepers in the dark. As for Brudo, there was nothing to worry about. Just as Qianye said to Ruoyu, it was the Viscount Werewolf who couldn't afford the price of war, not him.
Qianye explained the follow-up matters to Duan Hao and Zhu Wuya, seeing that it was still early, he decided to return overnight. After subduing the werewolf tribe, the westward plan came to an end, and all his original ideas were realized.
This was Qianye's first real expansion of territory, but he was not in a relaxed mood on the way home. The appearance of Twilight and Ruoyu filled the entire area with haze, which may even become more severe in the future.
The sky of Eternal Night is always so gloomy, but the darkness will not make the dark race feel much comfortable.
Because although the dark force on this continent is rich, it is wild and violent. For most dark races, it is not a suitable place for survival and cultivation. Compared with the upper continent where the ancient races originate in the Twilight Continent, it is far inferior. Regardless of humans or the four major dark races, if there are other options, no one wants to stay in this place.
At this moment, Yetong was standing against the wind on the top of a solitary peak piercing through the clouds, and a step away in front of her was a bottomless cliff. Count Kaos stood behind her, and in less than a month, his temple hair was completely white, and the wrinkles on his face became much deeper.
Seeing Yetong standing quietly, looking extremely lonely, Kaos sighed, and finally said: "Your Highness..."
Yetong turned around and said softly, "Don't call me Your Highness, in my heart, you have always been my father."
Kaos was surprised instead, and hurriedly said: "No, you can't say that! You have awakened the blood of Maharaja Anduya, and that is your true inheritance. If this is heard by others, I am fine. But it will get you into big trouble!"
Yetong smiled self-deprecatingly, and said, "Am I not in less trouble now? I don't care more about it."
Kaos also sighed and asked, "What are your plans for the future?"
Yetong said indifferently: "I won't let them manipulate me. I will never agree to this engagement!"
"With the prince here, Fira will never be allowed to mess around like he said." Kaos reminded.
Among the twelve ancient clans, marriage was an extremely sacred term, but on the other hand, it was purely a formality in many cases.
For the long-lived upper-blood race, the true meaning of marriage is alliance, and secondly, it is to create pure-blood descendants with strong bloodline power. So not every blood clan is eligible for marriage, especially among the twelve ancient clans, being eligible for marriage means being recognized by the clan.
Although Fira's talent is not as good as Yetong's, he is also a native species. He comes from the fifth-ranked Spock clan and is the most powerful contender for the next patriarch. Regardless of status or strength, they are very suitable for Ye Tong.
Knowing what Kaos was going to say, Yetong interrupted him, "I've decided to fight."
"Go to battle?" Kaos was taken aback, and said anxiously: "Don't be impulsive, you have just been promoted to Viscount. This war is shrouded in an iron curtain, and it is the cruelest bloody battle! If you go to the battlefield, you will really die Danger."
There was a faint inexplicable emotion in Yetong's eyes, "The bloody battle has the most achievements. If I have enough achievements, those old guys can speak with more confidence, right?"
Kaos hesitated to speak.
This time, how can a little military exploits be able to offset it. But he was very clear about Yetong's mood at the moment, and he just wanted to keep a glimmer of hope for himself. However, although the battle exploits in the bloody battle are rich, the risk of accumulating enough battle exploits is really close to death.
The roar of the engine resounded through the wilderness, and Qianye drove the locomotive at full speed.
On the distant horizon, Heiliu City is already in sight. This place has already entered the human-controlled area. The beasts on the wasteland and wanderers of various professions are no threat to Qianye now, but for some reason, he always has indescribable depression and anxiety in his heart, and it is becoming more and more obvious. .
The roar of the locomotive shook the ground, and several giant rats suddenly jumped out of an inconspicuous underground hole. They are one meter long from head to tail and are shaped like vicious dogs. Several giant rats saw the speeding locomotive, their eyes were red, and they hissed and screamed, and rushed on it.
The light of the original force suddenly lit up around the locomotive, and a protective cover enveloped the whole car, whistling through the giant rat group. Blood was splashed all over the air, and several giant rats were thrown far away, failing to stop the locomotive at all.
Qianye suddenly made a sudden stop on his locomotive, spun around in place for a few times, and finally stopped. He jumped off the motorcycle, walked to the corpse of a giant rat, and picked it up with a short knife.
Hitting head-on into the high-speed moving force shield is like hitting a steel wall. All the bones of this giant rat were shattered, hanging limply on the tip of the knife, with almost no shape visible.
However, what interested Qianye was why they attacked the locomotive.
The giant rats are at the bottom of the food chain in the whole wilderness. Normally, they would never provoke big steel guys like locomotives and off-road vehicles, but today they attacked Qianye in groups. This desperate behavior is not in line with their nature.
However, Qianye found nothing from the corpses that caused them to suddenly go berserk. He threw the giant rat corpses away, put away the crimson fangs, and made the gloom between his brows even heavier.
In fact, he had encountered more than one such incident all the way back. Except for omnivores like giant rats, even many small animals that were usually docile suddenly became violent and fierce, launching suicide attacks on passers-by from time to time.
The atmosphere in the whole wilderness seems to be a little different.
At this time, the roar of the engine sounded again in the distance, and two off-road vehicles appeared from the horizon, rushing towards Heiliu City at full speed. The exterior of the off-road vehicle was heavily scarred, and there were large areas of dried blood. From a long distance away, Qianye could see that all the passengers in the car seemed to be injured, and some of them were seriously injured.
When they saw Qianye, they made a slight arc and approached, slowing down as they approached Qianye. The strong man driving the car yelled at Qianye: "Brother, hurry back to the city! All the ferocious beasts in the wilderness have gone mad, they will bite anyone they see! This is a sign of a beast tide, don't stay outside the city looking for death!"
After shouting, he didn't care about Qianye's reaction, he stepped on the accelerator to the bottom, a large puff of black smoke came out from the front of the car, and the off-road vehicle ran away like a wild horse.
"Beast tide?" Qianye lived in Yongye for a long time, but he had never heard this word.
However, the wilderness is indeed changing, and the place close to the city is not bad. The so-called beasts have limited power, and it is difficult to threaten the soldiers no matter what. But what about the depths of the wilderness? Those ferocious beasts that can control the force, are they also violent
Ordinary and berserk beasts are not the same concept at all. After the beasts become berserk, their combat power will suddenly increase by one or two levels, and they will not die endlessly after seeing blood. Just like the giant mountain crocodile, which is a monster of level five or six, it was a one-shot thing for Qianye, but if more than a dozen berserk giant mountain crocodiles rushed up, he would have to avoid their edge.
If there is a beast tide, then the entire Heiliu theater will be in jeopardy. The fortifications of Heiliu City left by Wei Bainian are strong enough to resist the army of the dark race, but the surrounding villages and towns and some base cities may all be turned into ruins.
Qianye suddenly turned his head and looked into the depths of the wilderness.
In the distant sky, a black line appeared at some point, rushing towards this side. At first glance, it seemed to be a large cloud, but in Qianye's eyes, it was just a thick color that suddenly appeared between the sky and the earth, completely without substance, and wherever it passed, the sky suddenly became extremely dark.
what is that? Qianye was in doubt.
The black line is expanding rapidly, occupying half of the sky in a blink of an eye, and it is still spreading over the sky and covering the sky. No matter what it is, just the grandeur that covers the sky and the sun makes people breathless.
Qianye jumped on the locomotive and drove towards the darkness that was coming from afar. Along the way, he encountered many hunters, mercenaries, and adventurers, most of whom were covered in wounds, and fled towards Heiliu City in a panic.
Wild beasts are everywhere in the wilderness, even the most timid Swift Rabbit will show two dies and charge towards Qianye viciously. Fortunately, these wild beasts were low in strength, they were only relying on their instincts to randomly attack living creatures within their sight range, and they hadn't acted on a large scale, so Qianye was slightly relieved.
An hour later, Qianye stopped the motorcycle, stood in the empty wilderness, and looked up at the sky.
The sky is dark like a tide, the tide line is extremely clear, the sky is still clear ahead, and behind the tide line is a drowsy, day and night world.
