Deep in the cave, surging magma pools can be seen everywhere, and the stone walls are as red as a soldering iron.
Ringer was on full alert, large beads of sweat rolled down his forehead, and he couldn't help but want to take off all his clothes.
He tried using the ice magic, Ice Breath, to cool down his body, but in this dry volcanic hinterland, ice and water elements were almost extinct, so he couldn't use them at all. He could only rely on willpower to endure the high temperature.
Lanya was hanging weakly at the end, leaning on her staff.
Elise was the most relaxed. Seeing Ringer's vigilant look, she mocked: "You are too timid. Don't worry, no one can hurt you as long as I am here."
"It's better to be careful."
Ringer did not relax his vigilance because of Elise's words, but became more alert. Elise's proud look made him very uneasy.
"Are you so unsure of my strength?" Elise waved her fist in dissatisfaction.
"Unless you tell me that you are invincible and that no one in this world is your opponent, you'd better be careful."
Elise was very confident in her own strength, but she was not so arrogant that she thought she was invincible. She could not help but lower her voice and muttered:
"Even if I'm not invincible, a small character in a place like this won't be my opponent. This cave seems to be the territory of a certain fire creature. It doesn't even have any subordinates. It's probably just a minion."
Until the three of them entered the vast stone chamber at the end, they didn't encounter any living creatures along the way.
Lin Ge scanned every corner of the stone chamber and found no trace of Dios. There was no road ahead and it seemed to be an empty cave.
Why is there no one?
"There is a portal here. It seems that they have gone to other places." Elise squatted in front of a mess of stone pillars and looked at the messy lines connecting the stone pillars on the ground. "It's really a crude magic circle, just like a child." It’s just like having fun.”
Elise despised the builder of this shoddy portal.
Lin Ge walked over and saw graffiti-like patterns on the ground.
"Where does this portal lead to?"
"Hey, just chase him and take a look and you'll find out."
Elise pressed her hand on a certain stone pillar and used magic to activate the portal. A twisted black vortex appeared between the stone pillars.
…
Underworld.
A dark castle under the blood-red full moon.
The scarlet moonlight shines in from the window and shines on the red carpet with gold edges. The carpet extends to the center of the hall, under a long table made of ghost wood.
There were numerous demonic figures on both sides of the long table. The tall demonic figure at the top had two horns on its head, and its face was hidden in the thick darkness.
The atmosphere in the hall was serious and tense.
"Ahem, then let me give a brief report on the human situation." A feminine male voice broke the silence, bowed to the leader, and continued.
"Simply put, it's a bad situation."
"In the past year, humans living on the surface have lived and worked in peace and contentment, and the mortality rate has dropped to the lowest level in the past hundred years. Correspondingly, for us, the conversion rate of undead has also been the lowest in the past hundred years. I have to say that this is a bad year information."
"In addition, sects dedicated to saving the souls of the dead are developing rapidly. Among them, the Holy Light Sect is the most popular. It is said that three out of every ten humans believe in the Holy Light Sect."
"Under this situation, countless undead souls are purified by the priests every year. If it is not curbed, there will only be fewer and fewer undead souls in the world, and our strength will also be affected."
The demonic shadow at the top shook slightly, and a cold thought came from the shadow, which was directly conveyed to everyone's minds.
"Then...tell me your solution."
Just as the man was about to speak, a red magic circle suddenly appeared above the long table, and a petite red figure fell from it. Falling out with her was a purple-haired girl who had fainted.
More than a dozen eyes instantly focused on the two people who suddenly appeared.
After Shania glanced around, she felt secretly happy. She didn't expect to be teleported directly to the venue. She thought she would have to spend a lot of time finding where they were hiding for the meeting, but now she saved herself the trouble.
Her eyes stayed on Andil, the man who had just been doing his annual work summary, and anger burst out from his eyes.
"Andil, why didn't you call me for the meeting!" Magma-like red lines spread across her body, and strong flames burst out of her head.
"This... I thought you were not interested in a meeting of this nature." Andile said in a tactful way. What he actually wanted to say was that although you are also a cadre, you are just a commander, and you don't know how to work at ordinary times. , it’s the same with or without you.
"Whether I'm interested or not, you should have informed me instead of ignoring me, asshole."
A helpless smile appeared on Andil's pale face.
At this time, a cold and slightly mocking voice came into Shania's ears.
"You obviously didn't receive an invitation, but you still came here shamelessly. Your shame is really as thick as your ass."
This was followed by a similar voice.
"Yeah, what a shameless big-assed devil."
Shania immediately recognized the voices of Feliz and Kurid, those two damn frozen demons.
The red lines on her body became brighter, like a volcano about to erupt. At this moment, a cold gaze swept across the hall like a blade, cutting off all noise, and the hall suddenly became silent.
Shania felt that the Demon King was looking at her, and the hot lines on her body dimmed and disappeared in an instant.
Withstanding the strong pressure, she knelt down on the table and pushed the unconscious Tios out.
"This is my gift to you, Lord Demon King, a nature elf."
The demon shadow seemed to glance at Tios, and then waved, and there was an extra chair at the end of the long table. Shania sat on the chair, excited, which meant that she had been recognized by the Demon King and qualified to sit on it. here.
But why didn’t the Demon King keep that girl away? Doesn't the Demon King like this type?
Shania looked at Tios, who was still lying on the table, as if she was just a vase on the table. Everyone could see it, but they would not care about her existence.
The meeting continued. Listening to Andiel's boring voice, Shania quickly fell into a drowsy state. She vaguely heard words such as "war" and "troops".
I'm really not suitable for this kind of meeting. I won't come next time...
She felt her eyelids getting heavier and heavier, and finally fell down on the table.
It wasn't until the table beneath her ears suddenly made a loud noise, as if something heavy had fallen on the table, that she woke up.
She raised her head and saw two more people on the table, two unfamiliar faces.
A man and a girl, the transmission channel above their heads is closing, and the magic pattern near the exit looks very familiar.
On the long table, Lin Ge's body was stiff and his scalp was numb. The malicious and terrifying sights coming from all directions almost tore his body and soul into pieces.
Especially the terrifying aura coming from directly behind, as if the abyss is approaching and wants to swallow everything.
Cold sweat broke out on Ringer's forehead. What was going on with this unparalleled sense of oppression? Where was it teleported to?
Also, where is Elise? Where is Elise who is as big as me? We obviously walked into the portal together, why did we just say that we were gone?
