Chapter 1356
1356 The remnants of the royal family (1)
Although there were countless survivors of the demon and barbarian races buried in the death barrier that was dozens of kilometers long, the stowaways who were prepared for it still had a great chance of pa.s.sing through.
However, along the way, the team led by the young woman still encountered a lot of danger. Whether it was the poisonous fog monsters or the dizzying and complicated terrain, they all suffered in the process of moving forward.
Even if they had a map in their hands that allowed them to avoid the particularly dangerous areas as much as possible, they were still overwhelmed by the dangerous situations that appeared from time to time.
They advanced fearfully all the way until the first rays of the morning sun, and they finally broke through the death barrier.
Crossing the death barrier was an extremely physically exhausting matter, and their minds were always in a tense state, causing everyone to be exhausted. After taking a long breath as if a heavy burden had been lifted, they sat on the ground and began to recover.
Not far away from them, there were also a few groups of people resting. Some of them had blood stains on their bodies, clearly injured by the monsters when they pa.s.sed through the death barrier.
These people present had nothing to do with the three empires. Instead, they belonged to different secret forces. Their purpose was to investigate the secrets hidden in the land of exile and fight for the benefits of their own organizations.
Therefore, even though everyone had the same goal, they were always on guard against each other.
As for the official forces of the three empires, they were still investigating the remains of the explosion. However, in at most a day, they would cross the Great Wall of Miracles and find the culprit who launched the attack.
Compared to the three great empires, who had armed airships, these people’s equipment was undoubtedly much worse. Therefore, they had to race against time and try to figure out the reason for the situation before the three great empires arrived.
After a short rest, several groups of people immediately set off, rushing to the wilderness ahead.
The group wasn’t aimlessly searching because they had already gathered enough information before starting this operation. They knew that the reason why mage Sean and the others had entered the banished land was because the energy source of the three great empires ‘mage towers had suddenly been cut off, and the altar that provided them with energy was located in the banished land.
The altar had been built for a hundred years. During this period, it was inevitable that some people would leak the secrets of the altar. As long as one investigated carefully, it was not too difficult to find the exact location of the altar.
Therefore, everyone’s current direction was to head straight for the altar. Perhaps the answer they were looking for was there.
However, they did not know that the altar had been razed to the ground by the Holy Dragon City. Even if they rushed to their destination, they would only see ruins.
However, the Holy Dragon City happened to be in their path, so they did not need to go to the altar to see the mysterious force they were looking for!
The distance between the Great Wall of miracle and Holy Dragon City was more than a thousand miles. If these people wanted to reach there, they would have to travel day and night.
It was impossible to do this with just their legs, so everyone brought special tools to help them run. When they started at full speed, they were not much slower than cars.
Because they didn’t want others to get the benefits before them, several groups of people ran as fast as they could on the gravel-covered wilderness, not giving way to each other!
The original journey had faintly become a contest of strength, so even if they were exhausted, everyone gritted their teeth and continued to persevere.
After an unknown period of time, the team at the front suddenly stopped. The team in second place also stopped and looked at the ground in front of them.
It didn’t take long for the team led by the young woman to stop, because in front of them, there was an extremely deep and smooth pit!
this is the effect of the Suan NI’s forbidden technique, the black light of death!
A trace of shock flashed in the young woman’s eyes. She slowly walked to the edge of the deep pit, squatted down, and touched it with her hand. A trace of seriousness flashed across her face.
this should be the effect of the forbidden scroll. It’s obvious that a fierce battle took place here, but we can’t determine who used the forbidden scroll. I can also confirm that the forbidden scroll didn’t cause any casualties, because there’s no aura of soul burning here!
Hearing the woman’s whisper, an old man next to her said, ” “The forbidden scroll has always been a secret treasure of the royal family, and ordinary people have no way of possessing it.
Therefore, the person who used this scroll was either a member of the royal family of the demon barbarian Empire or that mysterious force. Even the flame Empire’s military camp, which might have been attacked, was destroyed by the forbidden scroll!”
The young woman shook her head and whispered, ” “It’s not that there are no such powerful forbidden technique scrolls, but they are extremely rare. Moreover, they were all used in the Great War a hundred years ago, so it’s impossible for them to be left behind.”
“Could there be any forbidden technique scrolls that were intentionally omitted and not recorded?”
that’s impossible. After all, the power of these forbidden scrolls is too great, and it’s extremely difficult to make them. The Empire must control them strictly. Besides, if there were hidden forbidden scrolls, teacher would definitely tell me!
“If that’s the case, then we can only continue to look for clues. However, I hope that the one who used the forbidden scroll is a remnant of the demon barbarian race. That way, we will have one more powerful helper!”
The young woman nodded. If the other party really had a forbidden scroll and had captured three bright moon mages and the armed airship, then he must be extremely powerful. This would be of great help to the young woman’s plan.
However, when she thought of her current situation, the young woman smiled bitterly in her heart. Even if she had a prominent ident.i.ty, someone had to buy it.
Now that a hundred years had pa.s.sed, the capital of the demon barbarian Empire had long been razed to the ground, and the survivors of the demon barbarian Empire were on the verge of extinction. As the only survivor of the royal family, she did not share the joys and sorrows of her people. Instead, she hid in the rich territory of the three great empires, looking for an opportunity to rise again.
In fact, the remnants of the royal family of the demon barbarian Empire had long known about the tragic state of the banished land. However, they had not taken any action. Firstly, they were helpless against the altar. Secondly, they did not want to return to the banished land to suffer.
As for resisting the restoration of their empire, it was just a thought. With their current strength, it was already not easy to avoid the pursuit of the three great empires. If they wanted to publicly declare the restoration of their empire, they would only be courting death.
However, the attack on the military camp and the disappearance of the mages this time made these remnants of the royal family see the hope of Dongshan mountain rising again. So they immediately took action and went straight to the land of exile.
It had to be said that this matter was full of irony. They had abandoned the remnants of the demon barbarian race when they were suffering, but now they had placed their hopes on them, hoping to use their strength to realize their dreams of restoring their country and regaining power.
Although it had been proven that the remnants of the royal family only cared about benefits, they would never admit that even if there were only a few of them left, they were still holding on to the last piece of cloth.
After searching the surroundings of the deep pit, the group moved again and continued in the direction of Holy Dragon City.
However, they didn’t notice that a silver-white shadow suddenly flashed across the sky. Then, it slowed down and slowly chased after them.
At the same time, two new models of a.s.sault helicopters took off from the base and headed straight for the group.
