On the bank of the Blood River, a mangrove tree over a hundred feet tall and as thick as several people's arms was hanging its red branches into the river.
From time to time, some water monsters covet this vibrant giant tree and pounce on it to bite.
However, they all became the fish that took the bait...
Those branches instantly turned into a giant net, trapping the water monster that jumped up to bite.
After another moment, the water monster turned into a ball of blood and spilled into the river.
"Hahaha, if I eat you, I will become stronger. I want to protect my children..." Jumu laughed crazily.
The sound echoed on the river, stirring up waves.
And that river of blood was still flowing downstream, as if everything had nothing to do with it.
Not long after, not far from the giant tree, only a few hundred meters away from the Blood River, a fire door suddenly appeared again on the red grass.
Then white people walked out one after another, it was Hook and his party from before.
"Hey, Master Abraham, how did you become like this?" Hook glanced around and immediately noticed something unusual.
"Uh, you're saying that this giant tree caught in bloodthirsty killings is the great wizard Abraham? Hasn't he always been close to nature, practiced the way of oak, and never done any killing?" William looked at the swallowing tree in confusion. The giant tree of the water monster.
"It must be him. When I leave here, he is the only tree here. The redwood tree by the river has almost the same shape as him. Although the color has changed, I still can't recognize him." Hook said firmly.
"It seems that this old gentleman must have encountered some changes." William nodded.
"No, where did my subordinates go? Are they all dead?" Hook then asked in surprise.
He clearly remembered that there were dozens of RoboCop left here before leaving, but he didn't expect that after just leaving for a while, not one of them was left.
"Okay, what do you care about those people? They are just a group of cannon fodder used to explore the road. Kelly, Ed... Immediately set up the twelve star formations by the river. If I guessed correctly, this blood river is the source of the entire secret realm. As long as we refine the source of power and crystallize it, we will definitely be able to control the entire secret realm." Countess Barito said proudly.
When Hook heard this, he couldn't help but look at him with admiration.
He had been here much longer than the other party, but he found nothing.
The other party just came in and immediately discovered the root cause.
This is where the gap between the two sides lies. Experts can see the door right away, while outsiders can only watch the excitement.
A group of alchemists in red robes immediately rushed to the river, took out various materials, bottles and jars, and began to set up the so-called Twelve Star Array.
William looked on coldly.
He has been living in China and knows nothing about the progress of the mysterious world of rice.
In his opinion, there should be a big gap between the other party and the level of the Chinese cultivation world.
I saw that these warlocks seemed to be well-trained, and their methods of arranging formations were as neat and uniform as workers on an assembly line. They were extremely fast and precise.
Blue and white lines were outlined on the ground, and then different ingredients were sprinkled on them to form complex patterns.
Perhaps the background is not as good as that of China, but it obviously has merits.
But Countess Barito didn't take any action, she just kept looking at the huge red tree.
After watching it for a while, she suddenly ordered: "Set that giant tree as the final star array sacrifice. I believe the power can be amplified to the extreme."
"No!" Hook shouted first and hurriedly stopped everyone, "The great wizard Abraham is our symbol of rice and the pinnacle of power. You must not sacrifice him while he is unconscious. The loss will be immeasurable. !”
When William heard this, he glanced at the rumored cunning and cold-blooded investigation director in surprise.
The other party actually has such a righteous and awe-inspiring side. Sure enough, humans are complex animals and cannot simply be distinguished from good and evil.
"Hmph, do you think you are still the powerful director here?" The countess reached out and grabbed Hook, as if she wanted to catch him.
However, Director Hook remained motionless, which made her look like a clown.
"Damn it, it turns out that magic is prohibited here! But it doesn't matter. You two, catch this verbose guy and throw it into the river. I think this waste may be able to slightly enhance the power of the blood river... Hahahaha!" the Countess laughed crazily.
As soon as she finished speaking, two backup alchemists immediately trotted over to catch Hook.
"Mr. William, come and save me!" Hook was shocked.
Spells are banned, but there are dozens of alchemists on the opposite side. How can he be an opponent
He had no idea that the other party would fall out immediately as soon as he came in.
He had learned from the past, so he didn't take any more subordinates with him.
Even if they are brought in, they will become insane, kill each other, or even endanger themselves.
However, he didn't know why the murderous intention of heaven and earth had no effect on these alchemists in red robes
He has the "Natural Hat" condensed by Master Abraham to protect his sanity. I am afraid that it is precisely because of this that the Master himself has lost the ability to resist the murderous intentions of heaven and earth.
This group of alchemists are only as powerful as a pond. How can they have magic weapons like the masters
When William heard this, he stretched out his hand, but there was no thunder, and he realized that the countess was not lying.
So the next moment, he ran away...
"Hahahaha, you are really smart. You are indeed a genius businessman..." The Countess looked at the other person's leaving figure and laughed even louder.
"Damn it, you treacherous villain! Capitalists are indeed the most unfaithful people!" Hook was furious.
However, the next moment, two iron hands grabbed him firmly and dragged him to the river.
"Let me go, let me go," Hook shouted, and then suddenly said in horror, "It turns out, it turns out that none of you are, none of you are..."
Before he could say the last words, he was thrown into the river of blood...
The next moment, countless black shadows wrapped around him and began to bite his flesh and blood.
I saw countless bubbles appearing on the surface of the water, and then calmed down.
The vigorous ambition of a little man, like these bubbles, comes and goes even faster...
"Hahahaha, no one is in the way, now this is my world!" Countess Barito laughed wildly with pride.
But those alchemists were all indifferent and continued to outline the so-called star array.
… …
Half an hour later, somewhere in a dry yellow mountain col, William was resting against the back of a mountain. He took out a bottle of water and slowly rehydrated himself.
"Haha, fortunately I have been exercising, otherwise I really wouldn't be able to run out."
He murmured to himself that Hook's death would not cause the slightest ripple to him.
These days, dead people are the most normal, and immortal people are abnormal.
Not only did Hook have no kindness to him, but he had hurt his only relative. It was strange that he would save the other person.
After resting for a while, he looked up at a stream not far away. That stream was particularly obvious because the whole body was red and flowing towards the distance.
Although the countess was cruel, what she said was absolutely right. This river of blood was really the key to this secret realm.
It seems that no matter where you go, you can see it. This is definitely not a coincidence.
It should be said that it is the blood of the entire secret realm, distributed everywhere, and the stream in front of you is its capillary.
"Okay, let's explore this capillary first."
He drank a bottle of mineral water, put the bottle back into the space ring, and then strode towards the bloody stream.
