Chapter 521 The beginning of the curtain
"Sword in the Stone, the legend of King Arthur. I have been British for more than two generations, so I grew up listening to this story. Do you mean that the Sword in the Stone really exists?" Caitlin was currently blinded.
"I said it was the sword in the lake. The sword in the stone has been broken and it has not helped us much. What we really need is the sword in the lake, which is the legendary sword of victory and vows."
"Well, what does that have to do with me? Do you think I am like a man who can unify Britain?"
"Haha, the so-called sword of victory and vows is just a temporary symbol of that era. The real sword in the lake is a fantasy weapon. A very special fantasy weapon. It is even difficult to explain that special in words, and it plays a crucial role in the next plan. It can even be said to be the core of this plan. So, I need you to get it."
"Okay, even if what you said makes sense. Where should I go to find this 'Sword in the Lake'? Go to a certain lake?"
“It’s indeed a lake.”
“…”
…………………………..
"This is indeed the real Styx contract. There is no trap at all." In an ancient castle, an old man with a thin body as thin as a bone and wearing a black robe said the above words in a hoarse voice. His hunched figure is powerful, and his palms are exposed in a black and dry state. It looks like an old root carving.
But those present would not have such a view. This is a ghoul, or the original ghoul. The dark creature at the ancestor level, with rich dark power on its body, makes dark creatures with flesh and blood like vampires, werewolves, and they can't help but retreat. They get close to it and even get infected as ghouls. It is one of the oldest dark creatures, so many participants in the conference asked him to identify the Styx contract.
"Then what? Let's talk about your opinion. What do you think about forming the Dark Alliance? By the way, that old shapeshifter can't come." Crowley seized the opportunity to start promoting the atmosphere.
"What does it mean to be unable to come?"
"It means you will never come."
“…”
This news immediately made the atmosphere in the entire hall a little dull. Every ancestor has almost endless life. Their races may be in a state of hostility to each other. However, there is always friendship between their individuals. After all, they are both immortal species, and they always have some common language.
But now, an old friend left completely. This made everyone present feel a little uncomfortable.
"I agree to form the Dark Alliance. My tribe has fewer and fewer people, and I can't even feel their breath. I really don't want to be the last Ramia." The banshee with a human head and snake body spoke first.
"I agree, too." A Wendigo Snow Monster reviewed. Their race generally has fewer words.
"I can join on behalf of my race." The skinned walker clan reviewed. This dark creature is cruel and tyrannical by nature, and Sulai is the key target of the witch hunter, so life is not easy. The past year has been even more devastating. They are also the first race to unify the alliance.
"Arakney can join. But we don't have much power to use." said a woman with a human-faced spider body. They are also a type of banshee, with some spider characteristics. They prey on lonely humans or animals.
"The Jersey Demons agreed to join. But we refuse to be any mount of existence."
The Jersey Demon is a dark creature similar to the form of a horse. However, its head is horned, its eyes are blood-red, and its back is covered with bat wings. It is not hooves, but claws. They have extremely high wisdom and combat power. However, because they are in the form of beasts, they are often captured by other high-level dark creatures and act as mounts. After all, if the dark power on them is ignored, these guys are still quite cool to act as mounts.
...
Countless dark races expressed their agreement to form the Dark Alliance. Hundreds of ancestor-level existences, representing their own race, signed their real names on the Styx contract. Not far from the castle, several figures were silently looking at the castle.
"Now is the best opportunity, why don't we rush in and kill them directly?" asked a man in a tight suit. His name is Allen, the famous Zidian in the dark world. The only speedier person outside Lin Xuan in this world.
"Allen, maybe the record of this period has made you feel inflated by your own strength. But I can tell you clearly that in that castle, there are at least six guys who have the power to restrain you. If you rush in, you will have to die."
"But I still have teammates support. And if you take action, teacher, this is not a problem at all, right?"
"It's hard for me to explain the whole thing to you now. It's an unimaginable and fatal blow to the humans living in this world. I can only tell you that these things in front of you are not the existence we want to fight against. They are just for leveling up."
Lin Xuan took out a map and handed it to Allen.
"This is a map with magic. Any dark creature with real names signed on the Styx contract will be monitored in real time by it. All night watchers will be mobilized to share the information on this. But be aware that I am not asking you to hunt down those guys. What you have to do is to block them one after another to prevent them from causing world-destructive events. Apart from this, you must not take the initiative to attack."
"Why? Do you know how many casualties they will cause when they unite? You will kill countless civilians like this. This is not the style of the night watchman." Allen's voice was a little excited, but he couldn't speak out the next second.
A muffled groan came from Allen's mouth, followed by a sudden feeling of suffocation. Allen felt that he could not breathe any air suddenly. And the power he was proud of suddenly disappeared. He fell to the ground in pain and struggled hard.
"When did you think you could yell at me? With your super speed? This is the power I gave you. And I don't remember that the style of the Night Watcher was prescribed by you? Alan, what do you think you are doing?"
"..." Allen couldn't make a sound. He could only roll in pain. It was not until Lin Xuan let go of a little magical bond that he finally took a breath. Then he took a deep breath. After most of the day, he could speak slowly.
"Sorry, teacher. I didn't mean to question you."
"I know you didn't mean it. I just remind you that this is a war, and if it is a war, there will be casualties. As for more specific reasons, I don't want to explain today."
“…”
At this time, Caitlin finally found the holy lake in Lin Xuan's mouth. This is a small lake located deep in the jungle. If you look closely, you will find that this lake has a very extraordinary place.
