The Dark King
chapter-871

Whoosh!

A figure landed in a certain hill basin.

The humidity in this basin was rather thick. At this moment, a bonfire was lit in the middle of the basin. Four people were surrounding the bonfire. Some of them were lying on the rocks beside the bonfire while others were playing with knives and carving wood, some of them were holding a furry little animal in their arms. They gently stroked it and stared at the bonfire in a daze.

Hearing the commotion, one of the women who was sitting quietly by the bonfire and resting with her eyes closed opened her mouth and said, “You’re back?”

The other two people turned their heads and saw a tall and thin figure slowly walking over from the basin. Under the illumination of the bonfire, his thin face looked a little eerie. It was Baptiste. He did not reply, he sat down on an empty spot by the bonfire and casually picked up a piece of firewood to add in.

Phisnia slowly opened her eyes. Her blue eyes fell on Batiste, who was opposite her, and she frowned slightly, “Why do you smell like blood? Didn’t I tell you that it’s okay to go out for a walk? When you come back, clean up the stench on your body. Don’t affect our Big Event Tomorrow!”

“I’ll clean it up later,”Batiste replied weakly. He did not dare to be angry with this woman even if he wanted to. He could only feel depressed. Now, whenever he thought of the words on the stone wall, he could not help but clench his teeth, he wanted to clench his fists, but the regret in his heart made him feel aggrieved. However, it was his own fault, which made him feel like he had nowhere to vent his frustration.

Phisnia’s dark blue eyes were pure and crystal clear. She stared at Baptiste and frowned. “What happened?”

“What else could have happened to him? He must not have found a suitable person to practice with,”the young man who was carving wood beside him raised his head and said with a smile.

Baptiste rolled his eyes at him, but he didn’t hide it. He said, “When I went out for a walk tonight, I bumped into a person. Judging from the armor of that person, he shouldn’t be from our place. Most likely, he’s from one of the divine walls nearby.”

“Oh?”

“There’s another abyss here?”

Hearing Baptiste’s words, the others were all interested and looked up at Baptiste.

Felicia frowned slightly and said to the middle-aged woman who was hugging the furry animal, “Wifetler, are there any other sacred walls nearby?”

This middle-aged woman with a slightly masculine name was extremely beautiful. Just by looking at her appearance, one would never believe that she was already in her fifties. Her skin was as white as cream, and her delicate oval face made her appear cold and charming, at the same time, she was also somewhat cute. She stroked the furry little animal in her hand, and with her other hand, she took out a scroll from the bag on her back and opened it to look, she shook her head and said, “No, there is no divine wall within three thousand miles of here.”

“I told you, which divine wall would be so close to the magic pit?”The young man who carved the wood said with a smile.

Phisnia frowned and looked at Baptiste. “Have you fought with that person? What kind of strength do you have? Middle or lower? Or… Upper?”

Baptiste sighed and shook his head slightly.

Seeing him like this, Phisnia, Wifetler, and the carved wood youth couldn’t help but be moved. Seeing their expressions, Baptiste immediately knew that they had misunderstood. He was a little conflicted. He really didn’t want to mention this. “If my feeling is right, that person is just a ruler.”

“Ruler?”Everyone was startled, but they were relieved.

Phisnia glanced at Baptiste and said, “Is there anything special about this ruler?”

The carved wood youth also saw the strange expression on Baptiste’s face and teased, “Could it be that he wanted to kill this ruler, but he ran away?”

Baptiste didn’t expect him to guess correctly. He couldn’t help but glare at him and said unhappily, “You’re the one who talks too much!”

“Is that really the case?”Wittler was surprised.

The carved wood youth laughed loudly, he said, “You still don’t know Baptiste’s character. He suddenly saw a person in this abyss, and he was a ruler. It would be strange if he did not capture him as a toy. Looking at his dejected look, it was obvious that he had failed. However, I only made a casual guess. I did not expect that I would really hit it. Haha, Baptiste, you actually managed to let a ruler escape from your hands. You’re really amazing!”

Baptiste’s lips trembled slightly as he glared at him coldly. “Do you believe that he can escape from my hands? With your abilities, he can make you run around in circles.”

The carved wood youth smiled and said, “Yes, I believe you. Who doesn’t know that you have a strong tracking ability? However, if it were me, he wouldn’t have the chance to escape. As long as I see him, he will die in my hands. Do you believe this?”

Batiste’s eyes were spitting fire as he said, “What do you mean?”

“Enough!”Seeing that the two of them were about to quarrel again.., he frowned and said, “Sven, tell me what’s the situation first. This person is only a ruler, yet he dares to come here. He must have extraordinary abilities.”These words were deliberately to give Batiste a way out, but she knew clearly in her heart.., to be able to escape from Batiste’s hands as a ruler, this was definitely not something that could be described with the simple words “Extraordinary abilities.”.

Batiste snorted lightly, he said, “Speaking of this matter, it was also my negligence. I was having fun when I suddenly saw that kid hiding on a tree. When I launched a sneak attack, this kid also noticed me and dodged in time. At that time, I didn’t know whether this kid was an abyss or a ruler. Most importantly, this kid was able to control the corpse king. Beside him was a beautiful corpse king. It gave me a feeling that it was quite dangerous. At that time, I thought that this corpse king was also an abyss. I thought that if I fought two against one, even if I won, I would most likely be injured and implicated in tomorrow’s operation.”

The carved wood youth smiled lightly, the corners of his mouth curling up. Although he didn’t say anything, his meaning was clear: you are obviously cowardly, what does it have to do with tomorrow’s Operation?

Baptiste looked at him coldly, and then continued to explain, “After I left, I realized that this kid might not be the ruler, so I went back to investigate. In the end, this kid really slipped away, and his hiding ability is quite strong. I searched for more than two hours, but I still couldn’t find him. If Wifetler was here at that time, this kid would definitely be finished!”

A trace of fluctuation flashed in Phisnia’s blue eyes. She said, “You said that this person can control the corpse king?”

“That’s right!”Only then did batiste think of the important point that he wanted to say, he said, “I don’t know where this kid learned it from. I suspect that this kid might not be from the other divine walls. It might be this abyssal survivor. Didn’t someone say that there are still survivors from the previous era in this abyss? There were once people who saw the things and traces of activity created by the abyssal survivor here. I suspect that this kid might be the abyssal survivor here.”

PHISNIA asked, “Have you talked to him? Do you know what language he speaks?”

Baptiste said, “It’s the common language of the divine wall.”

“Since it’s the common language of the divine wall, what else is there to doubt?”The carved wood youth said unhappily.

Baptiste rolled his eyes at him and said, “Wouldn’t the abyssal survivors sneak into the divine wall to secretly learn it? There’s no way to control the corpse king in the divine wall. Which Monster Research Institute in the Divine Wall found such a method and dared not to hand it in?”

Phesenia nodded slightly, he said, “It doesn’t matter where he is from for the time being. At present, this person should still be nearby. Although a small ruler doesn’t have much influence on us, we don’t know what level the king of corpses he controls is. No matter what, Wifetler, you should pay more attention to the surroundings for the next operation. Don’t let others pick up the scraps behind us.”

“Yes, I will.”Wittler nodded and touched the furry little animal in his hand.

“When we go back, we can tell that Lord about this person. He has always been very interested in the undead. If he knew that someone could control the zombie king, he would probably find this person at all costs. At that time, we can also be considered to be the informants. If it’s valuable, we might be able to receive a big reward.”Phisnia smiled.

Baptiste smiled in his heart. The reason why he said such a shameful thing was because of this purpose. He wanted to take revenge through the hands of the Lord.

“Go and clean yourself up. It’s almost dawn. We are ready to move out.”.

Baptiste nodded. He looked at the sky and got up to leave.

..

…..

Dudian walked along the tracks of the beasts. He didn’t walk fast in case he ran into the abyss. He hid his breath all the time. After more than an hour, he came to a hill country.

There were no tracks of the beasts but there was still the smell of the abyss. Dudian could smell other scents in the air, including the faint body scent of a woman.

Dudian was surprised. Cold Sweat broke out on his back. was there someone else here? Was there more than one abyss?

He wanted to turn around and leave. If there was only one person from the abyss last night, even if he met him, he was confident that he could escape. But from the smell in the air, there were at least four people. If all of them were from the abyss.., he wouldn’t be able to escape even if he had wings.

He stopped moving forward and slowly retreated far away. As he retreated further and further away, the tension in his heart slowly relaxed. He couldn’t help but think that if these people were from the Abyss, then why did they come here in groups?

Hunting a monster?

Wait, in addition to the Kingdom of God, which God wall could have so many abysses?

Although Dudian wasn’t sure if the four smells were all abysses, but he was sure that there were at least two abysses. Otherwise, the Abyss wouldn’t have left four masters there and he wouldn’t have come out alone.

“So many abysses gathered at once. If all of them were abysses, then it would be equivalent to five wall masters. So they came here to hunt a monster? What else is there in the abyss? The survivors of the Abyss? The ruins of the last century?”Dudian speculated, these speculations made him more curious. He wanted to follow them to find out the truth. But his reason told him that he wasn’t the main character in the novel. He didn’t have such good luck. Even if the other party was looking for treasures.., he could only stare at them with his puny strength.

In that case, wouldn’t it be stupid to risk his life in order to feast his eyes?

“You go your way and I’ll go mine. I’ll let it go this time. If we meet again in the future, HMPH, whoever is weak will be unlucky.”Dudian thought in his heart, both of them turned back to look for each other. But after looking for each other, there was no result. They could only resentfully end it.

Dudian didn’t think much as he saw the sun rise. He continued to follow his original path. It was the opposite of the previous exploration of the hill. He only prayed that this direction was the opposite of Last Night’s Abyss, it was not the same route.

For the sake of insurance, he decided to move 300 miles horizontally and continue north.

This time he was more cautious. After all, Last Night’s Abyss and his companions would appear in the surroundings at any time. There was a possibility that they would run into him while chasing a monster. If that was the case, he could only admit that he was unlucky.

Three hundred miles wasn’t long or short. If it was in the hunting area, Dudian would be able to fly there in an hour. But in the abyss he could only obediently go on foot. He met many monsters along the way. Most of them were pioneer level monsters, occasionally there would be small monsters of Hunter level. However most of them were poison type monsters. Dudian would either avoid them or go all out to kill them. He didn’t dare to be careless.
