Chapter 0056 Reunion in Purgatory (eight)

Chapter 56: Purgatory Reunion (8)

This news caught Qi Leren off guard. The illusionist's strength was unfathomable. If it was a dusk land, Qi Leren didn't need to worry about his safety at all, but this is an underground ant city.

An underground world ruled by domain-level masters, where humans and demons coexist. Every month, there is a large army of demons that rush to this underground fortress. There is also a gap leading to the demon world in the depths of purgatory...

This place is too dangerous, and the place where the illusionist disappeared is the palace of the Dragon Ant Queen.

"What are the illusionist doing when he sees the Dragon Ant Queen?" Qi Leren instinctively guessed that the Dragon Ant Queen might have detained the illusionist, but he didn't know why the illusionist came to the underground Ant City. Chen Baiqi did not tell him, and Qi Leren was worried about Ning Zhou along the way and did not ask about it.

"This..." Contact person Celia hesitated for a moment. She could not disclose the mission information casually. Although this Qi Le was with the Illusionist, he was not the executive officer of the court.

The hesitant Celia looked at Ning Zhou again. She remembered that this was the special envoy of the Holy See to the Tribunal.

Ning Zhou asked: "Have you contacted the court?"

"The letter of request for instructions was sent yesterday, but I'm afraid it won't be answered next week," Celia said.

"Tell us the matter, it will be useless if you wait any longer." Ning Zhou said lightly.

"Okay, Mr. Ning Zhou. This is the thing. The prophet and the Dragon Ant Queen had a secret agreement, agreeing that when the next Dragon Ant Queen succeeded, the prophet would send someone to witness. The prophet had received the invitation from the Dragon Ant Queen and appointed Mr. Illusionist to witness the handover ceremony." Celia said, revealing a heavy expression. "Before leaving, the illusionist agreed with us that he would contact us every day, but there was no news after he entered the Dragon Ant Queen's palace."

"Have you ever been to find him?" Qi Leren asked in confusion.

"We went, but we did not have the Dragon Ant Queen's handwriting, nor the Prophet's handwriting, and we could not enter the palace," said Celia.

Qileren pondered that the palaces of the dragon ant queens of all generations were not in the same place. Their palaces were magnificent, huge, unfathomable, and even terrifying to ordinary people - because their palace was their last tomb.

From the day they ascended the throne, they have been building magnificent mausoleums for themselves, digging deeper and bigger. With their huge manpower and their own almost terrifying power, the last mausoleum of each Dragon Ant Queen is a huge city. It was not stopped from the day they ascended the throne until the day they died.

What’s bizarre is that except for the first dragon ant queen who can be considered long-lived, every dragon ant queen has been in power for only more than twenty years. This dragon ant queen has been in power for twenty-two years. She was still a young girl twenty-two years ago, and now she is as old as an octogenarian.

Her underground tomb has long been built to be extremely large, and can be called a magnificent underground city.

There is also her palace.

"But there is a clue..." Celia gritted her teeth and told the information. "On the morning when the illusionist went to the palace, a gambling ghost saw his trace in the underground casino where the demons were infested."

"Have you checked?" Qi Leren asked.

"I went there, but the informant who went to verify did not come back. Recently, the number of unknown missing people in the entire underground Ant City is several times that of the past, which is very amazing." Celia said solemnly.

"Have you ever had a similar situation before?" Qi Leren asked again.

Celia was silent for a while, as if she was thinking about something. After a long time, she sighed softly: "I haven't experienced it, but I have heard of some things... This situation is very similar to the period when the previous Dragon Ant Queen fell more than 20 years ago. The order of the entire underground ant city collapsed completely, and the contradiction between the demons and human residents intensified. Although it was not the time of the demon tide, the demons surged out from all corners, and neither humans nor demons could easily survive the disaster... It was a very terrifying and chaotic period, every time the power transfer was

At the time, it was bloody. Think about it, this is the death of a domain-level master. Her death was a devastating blow to the domain she ruled. Although the Dragon Ant Queen's situation is special, she can pass on the domain in some way, this inheritance is by no means easy. In the final analysis, our lives are too fragile. The ants that cling to the strong can't stand a shower and blow the wind. Even those who are close to God will fall one day, let alone ordinary people like us."

Qi Leren's heart is heavy. In this short and long period of time, he has experienced too many feelings that he cannot experience in peaceful times. Too many people are wandering here, unable to protect their lives, but they still have to struggle to survive. Whether it is life, emotions, or the connection between people, they are too fragile in this cruel and turbulent world. Here, what is cherished will be destroyed, what is entrusted will be destroyed, what is praised will be degenerate, and the beautiful things will be broken one by one, but you can't even blame anyone.

Because really, really, too weak... Those who lived in Mary's "dream" in the past will eventually face this world of demons, because the "god" who once protected them has also fallen. How long can the dusk land under the protection of the prophets?

The old devil has fallen, the holy nun has fallen, and the dragon ant queen is about to fall. These existences, which are almost like "god" in the eyes of ordinary people, cannot be transcended in the laws of this great world.

Qi Leren felt powerless. He didn't know whether his hands could fight against this cruel world. He wanted to protect a person, a person who was not recognized by the Holy See and would not compromise with the demons, and a person who wandered to hell but yearned for heaven. He wanted to accompany this person and give him a last harbor.

But can he really do it? Qi Leren couldn't help but doubt himself. Even though he had already pushed open the door to half of the domain, the road ahead was still so long. He was like a child looking at the night sky. After the dark clouds were pushed away, he saw the bright starlight, pointing him the direction to move forward. But it was the light from billions of years ago, and he could see it billions of light years away from him, but he could not touch it.

A slight touch suddenly came from the tip of his fingers. Qi Leren froze and hooked Ning Zhou's hand with his backhand.

The temperature of another person's life comforted the uneasy soul. Qi Leren forgot that the liaison officer Celia, who was standing in front of him, stared at them straight and turned to Ning Zhou and said, "Let's go to that underground casino and have a look."

Ning Zhou shook his hand hard: "Yes."

"Also, please send another letter to the trial office to explain that I have found Ning Zhou. In the recent period, we will stay in the underground ant city. We will help with the illusionist." Qi Leren said, and suddenly found that Celia was silently watching their hands shook with each other. She couldn't help but want to pull them back in embarrassment, but Ning Zhou held it too tightly and the slight struggle did not work at all.

Qi Leren peeked at Ning Zhou. There was no expression on his cold face, as if he didn't feel anything wrong with the contact person's sight. He just held a homosexual hand calmly and calmly, as if no one else was around.

On the contrary, Qi Leren seemed to be caught by the director of the teaching department and was holding hands secretly. His heart was beating fast and his face turned red.

What's going on? Isn't Ning Zhou super shy? He obviously blushed when he was offering sacrifices to the witch!

This confusion bothered Qi Leren all the way. On the way to the underground casino, Qi Leren was full of this problem, absent-minded, and was distracted several times. After being stared by Ning Zhou several times, he was guilty and whispered: "There are so many people here, isn't it good for us to hold hands?"

It was not just not very good, it had a bad influence. In the underground ant city full of coldness and maliciousness, the two men walking and holding hands were completely different from the group of passers-by who were alone and wishing they could be separated from strangers a few meters away! However, the surprise eyes of passers-by did not affect Ning Zhou at all. He was unmoved and insisted on holding hands.

After hearing Qi Leren's question, Ning Zhou stopped to look at him, and there was a hint of shock in his expression.

Qi Leren was confused and looked at him stupidly.

The two of them looked at me, and I looked at you, without even speaking.

"We..." Ning Zhou said two words and paused again. Qi Leren felt that his expression seemed a little nervous at this moment, "...Are you going to get married?"
