After a few days.
The night is low, but this hellish world isn't darkened by night. When the distant and dim reddish-brown star completely sank to the horizon, a dark red shimmer shrouded the obsidian plain. The twilight came from the huge red planet in the sky. The huge planet has red iron-rich soil and is always shimmering because of slowly decaying radioactive materials. This light is enough to illuminate the whole world after nightfall earth.
Each demon plane has an unforgettable and strange landscape, the third plane has Helm's smoke column, and the seventh plane has a red giant star. Due to the gravitational lock, the broken planet that Yizaks once ruled and the red giant star in the sky have kept moving relative to each other for millions of years, becoming this strange binary star system in space. When night falls, the Obsidian Plain is illuminated by the red giant star. When you look up, you can see the huge circular land hanging above your head. The distance is so close that you can even see the wood grains on the red planet with the naked eye. surface structure.
Several black figures were running fast on the obsidian plain, with the speed of catching birds in the wind. They bypassed the barracks and outposts along the way, and kept approaching the "city" where the headquarters of the Holy See coalition forces was located.
La Nina looked up at the familiar sky of her hometown: "Many outsiders will find it difficult to survive in this space. The relatively high temperature during the day and the toxic substances in the air are only one of the reasons. The other reason is the influence of the red planet. Red It seems to be a very irritating color to sensitive creatures like humans and elves. Long-term exposure to the red environment will cause them to lose control of their emotions. In addition, the radiation of the red planet has a certain impact on the mind. Many humans and elves The elves can adapt to the climate here, but they are tortured when the night comes. However, the coalition soldiers who stay in this space should have adapted to the environment, and we can no longer expect to see someone go crazy under the light of the red planet .”
Hao Ren didn't have any feelings about the huge planets in the sky. He was just curious about the situation of this continent before the collapse of Yzaks' empire: "Is the environment here so bad back then? I remember Yizaks There are many creatures of other races under Si, can they adapt to this place?"
"The environment here was slightly better back then, and the environment in the city was even better," La Nina smiled. "In order to allow all races to live normally in this space, we have studied a lot of environmental modification technologies, and even used a large enchantment to The Peak District created a forest where elves can live. But now there should be only charcoal left."
Hao Ren nodded. I didn't say anything more.
Only La Nina was with him, and the others had already dispersed to perform tasks in other places. They wanted to create a little chaos in the hinterland of the coalition forces tonight. Based on the topographical map that Vivian had mastered, coupled with the grasp of the movement patterns of the people near the target in the past few days, it shouldn't be difficult to succeed.
"Just wait here." When the light of the red planet in the sky reached its third peak, Hao Ren and La Nina arrived at an obsidian peak closest to the command center. This is a patrol blind spot, "Yzaks should be in place, we will act as soon as there is movement from his side."
At the same time, at the foot of another obsidian mountain more than ten kilometers away from Hao Ren and La Nina, Y'zaks was quietly looking at the huge canyon in front of him.
The place where he was standing was on the edge of his former royal city, but now the royal city is no longer there, and there is only a huge canyon with no end in sight. The Obsidian Plain is as if a piece was forcibly dug out in the center, leaving a scorching scar, showing to future generations how tragic the devastating war was.
Y'zaks looked quietly down the canyon. At the bottom of that distant dark valley, patches of bright golden-red light can be seen winding and flowing, which is a network of rivers formed by magma. These magmas were once hidden deep underground. It was the unprecedented forbidden curse that year that exposed these underground lavas.
Many years ago, these magma rivers were an important source of power for the Demon City and the Obsidian Throne. But this time, they will once again serve the Lord Demon King of this land.
"If this land still remembers its master," Y'zaks sat down cross-legged and muttered to himself, "get up and do me a favor."
The river of lava in the depths of the canyon seemed to have heard the call of the former monarch, and suddenly began to surge. Hearing the loud noise from the bottom of the valley, and feeling the slight tremor below his body, Yizaks smiled: "Then look Is the blood magic that vampires are proud of so easy to use?"
The night was still silent. The red giant star's light ends at a peak and begins to fade gradually. The coalition sentries stationed around the Grand Canyon are preparing for the last shift change today. An elf warrior with pointed ears saw the comrades who came to change shifts appearing not far away, so he yawned and walked out of his post. He was very relaxed, because he felt that there would be no danger here: this is the hinterland of the Obsidian Plain, the core of the Holy See's coalition forces. Although it was the base camp of the Mad Demon King a year ago, it is now the safest place in the entire Demon Dimension. Selaton's army was thousands of kilometers away, so he didn't think anything would happen tonight.
But the moment he turned around, a strange rumbling sound suddenly came from behind, and the sensitive ears of the elves trembled at the same time as the rumbling sound sounded, the soldier immediately rushed back to the sentry post, looked down at the big The bottom of the canyon: that's where the sound came from.
I saw that the magma river at the bottom of the Grand Canyon was surging, and those bright and never solidified scorching liquid seemed to flow countercurrently along the four walls of the Grand Canyon, and countless huge monsters in human form condensed and formed from the magma, just like those in mythology. Climbing towards the surface like an ancient giant climbing the pillar of the world!
The elf sentinel broke into a cold sweat instantly. At this time, he even forgot that the depth of the canyon was enough for these lava demons to fall halfway. Instead, he subconsciously pulled the alchemy equipment next to the alarm, and at the same time shouted: "The devil is attacking!!"
At the same time, more than a dozen alarm light groups shot into the sky from other guard posts around the canyon, and the surrounding camps boiled instantly!
And in the command post not far from this camp, a human watchtower is still lit. The stone, boxy, three-story building was the residence of the Supreme Commander of Humanity. In the room on the top floor of the watchtower, a middle-aged man in armor and with short brown hair was frowning and staring at a dark red crystal in front of him. He is the human commander Gregory, one of the "Seven Heroes" of the Holy See coalition forces.
This paladin with high prestige and tenacity is one of the oldest commanders in the ten-year war, and he is also the first coalition initiator to stand up and call for an alliance of all races after the Demon King Army has ravaged the human world for hundreds of years one. But now this general who is known for his wisdom and calmness is confused by the crystal in front of him. He can't see through this small dark red stone what hints there are other than an image. He can only feel it from the stone. The arrival of the real demon king's breath-it was this breath that convinced the commanders of the Holy See coalition forces that this was not a joke.
Just as Gregory was looking at the stone in a daze, the noise from outside suddenly made him frown.
He stood up, opened the door and greeted his personal guard: "What's going on outside?"
The personal guard had just returned from understanding the situation, and when he saw Gregory, he immediately saluted: "General! The magma river below the Magic Scar Canyon is surging, and many lava demons are crawling to the ground."
"Just for this?" Gregory frowned dissatisfiedly. "Every day, lava monsters crawl out of the magma river below. Didn't we confirm that they can't climb the cliffs of the Magic Scar Canyon!"
"But general, this time the scale is very large," the guard hastily explained the information he heard, "It is said that thousands of lava demons have split from the magma river! Their actions are very similar to those under the command of the mad king of… "
"What did you say?!"
"It's very similar to the lava demon army under the command of the Mad Demon King..." The guards took a breath. Even though the coalition forces were the final victors of the ten-year war, these victors still couldn't help but feel a sense of disgust when they mentioned the three words "Mad Demon King". A kind of fear from the bottom of my heart, that is a shadow that has shrouded the world for hundreds of years, far from being completely eliminated by a ten-year war.
Gregory thought for a while, and waved his hand to calm down his personal guard: "Keep calm. Let Master Lufan come over and inform General Kasutina of the situation here."
The guards took the order to leave, Gregory turned his head to look at the dark red crystal on the table, shook his head slightly, and sat back at the table.
He didn't leave the room. (to be continued~^~)
