Dark King

“You are lucky. The battle had just ended and you came.”Monica glanced at Holani. It seemed that she wasn’t surprised that he was still alive.

Holani bitterly smiled: “It was almost digested. Fortunately you killed that thing in time. Speaking of which, you three have become my benefactor. Isn’t this a rotten mud ghost? Is It Dead?”

“It just died.”Barkley replied. He wasn’t in the mood to care about Dudian.

Dudian saw that Monica and Barkley weren’t surprised that Holani had survived. His eyebrows twitched. It seemed that he had underestimated the shamelessness and blackness of the Abyss, it was possible that Holani had sensed the rotten mud ghost and deliberately let the quartz monster eat him. Even if Dudian didn’t kill the quartz monster, he wouldn’t be in danger.

Instead, he could use this opportunity to hide in the body of the quartz monster and wait to see how they would fight. After all, they had lost one person, and the three of them were under more pressure. Naturally, they could not hide their strength.

Thinking of this, he glanced at Barker. As the wall master, he was able to suppress Monica and Horeni. His ability should be stronger than the two of them, but his previous performance did not show how powerful they were.

In this way, it was him and Monica who exposed more in this battle. However, perhaps Barker and Holani already knew what Monica exposed, so there was no need to hide it. From the beginning to the end.., only he suffered the greatest loss.

“Rest up. Let’s leave this place as soon as possible. The quartz daemons are already dead. There is no master in this territory. There will most likely be new daemons invading. We should not stay here for long.”Barker bandaged the wound on his chest, he patted his butt and stood up. He looked at holani: “Let your people count the losses. Many people have died. Next we will face the ice dragon. We Can’t lose any more!” There was a hint of meaning in his words.

Holani didn’t seem to understand. He nodded: “It’s time to go. You should rest first. I will lead the way.”

Dudian was in no mood to argue. He sat aside and rested.

After a moment Holani organized the hunting group and counted the number of people. In just a few minutes the rotten mud ghost had killed four rulers, nine generals and more than 70 pioneers, there were only about 360 people left.

After organizing the hunting group Holani led his men to lead the way.

The area of the magic pit was very large. It was much larger than the other areas. According to holani, it was about the size of four giant walls. It could easily accommodate hundreds of millions of people.

Dudian thought of a long sunken island so he roughly knew the scope of the magic pit. Although there were only 100 million people in an island but the land area was still very large. In fact, it could accommodate more people, the magic pit was about half the size of an island. They were still at the outer edge of the magic pit. The Ice Lake was close to the central area and the distance was far.

After half a day of traveling they met some master level monsters. Holani took the initiative to lead the team to kill them but didn’t sacrifice many hunters. After leaving the territory of the quartz monsters they met two more abyss level monsters. However Monica sensed them in advance so they avoided them.

The sky was getting dark. Everyone was resting in a canyon. The wind whistled like the ferocious laughter of monsters. It made people uneasy.

In this kind of nervous mood, everyone hugged their weapons and fell asleep. They would be woken up at any time, however, he didn’t expect Dudian and Barkley to be so rude. They agreed as soon as he opened his mouth. However, he knew that they were angry at him for avoiding the fight during the day, he didn’t care about it.

Moreover, he didn’t dare to sleep even if he was allowed to sleep. He guessed that Dudian’s magic marks should be very good at fighting. He wasn’t good at perception so he left Dudian to guard, it was better to leave it to a master who could easily sense the surroundings.

The night outside the giant wall was always long. The howling of monsters could be heard from time to time. Many of the more ferocious monsters liked to appear in the night and hunt other monsters.

It was not easy to survive. It was not only because of hunters like Dudian but also because of the other weaker monsters. The night was a disaster. Most of the monsters would return to their nests early in the evening no matter how far they were from their nests, they would rush back.

The night passed quickly.

There were a few pioneer level and a master level monsters that found the canyon. But before they could attack, they were quietly killed by the night watchmen, Horaney and Monica.

When the dawn came, the dark world seemed to be full of hope again. The monsters that had been shivering in their nests all night left their nests to hunt for their prey. Dudian and the others also ate dry food, replenished water and set off again.

Under the leadership of Holaney, they headed towards the ice lake in the depths of the magic pit.

With Monica as an expert in perception, they avoided a lot of risks along the way. However, they still encountered many pioneering level monsters in the daytime. As for weaker monsters, they would encounter them from time to time, they were killed by the hunters.

Dudian borrowed a map from Holaney and looked at it. He waited until Holaney pointed out their location and the Ice Lake, they were still a long distance away from the Ice Lake. It would take them at least two or three days.

Two or three days of marching in the magic pit was no less than suicide.

Dudian looked at the rest of the soldiers who were sitting on the ground. There was a bit of pity in his heart. Not many people could go back alive. But they still held hope that there were several abyss.., nothing would happen to them. Even if something happened to them, it would be someone else. He would be the one lucky enough to survive.

But he knew that when they reached the ice lake, they would be the first batch of cannon fodder to rush to the front. They would wear down the power of the polar ice dragon and reduce the possibility of danger. At that time, even if everyone was sacrificed.., they wouldn’t care. In fact, it was more to their liking. After they got the ice worm, Barker and the others would return to the giant wall as fast as possible. They wouldn’t stay in the magic pit for long. After all, even if they were in the abyss.., they would die here.

Unfortunately, only he who had reached the abyss could understand this point. Others might have guessed it but they could only accept their fate sadly or humbly hope for mercy.

But the strong would never show mercy.

..

Two days passed.

Dudian, Holaney and the others led less than 300 hunters to the ice forest outside the ice lake. During the two days they met three abyss level monsters, although Monica and several other masters with strong perception and magic generals were scouting the way, they were still unable to find the three abyss monsters.

The battle was unavoidable.

Fortunately, the abyssal monsters were alone this time. It took them a lot of effort to deal with them.

Dudian was relatively low-key in the later battles. He took the opportunity to observe the magic marks ability of the three of them. He deliberately exposed flaws in the battle to give the abyssal monsters a chance to attack, dudian forced out some of their abilities.

In his observation, Holaney was good at using poison. At the same time he had strong perceptive ability. He was able to put poison in his mouth and wings. The poison was extremely corrosive and toxic. It could easily corrode metals and rocks, one of the Abyss Monsters was poisoned by Dudian. Its body quickly rotted away. The scene was extremely cruel.

Monica’s magic marks ability could not only harden things but also bewitch the enemy and make them lose their mind. Dudian deliberately made a mistake and drilled out of the encirclement of the Abyss Monster, dudian saw Monica’s magic marks. Although it only stunned the abyss monster for a moment but it was seen by Dudian. This made him pay special attention to it. This ability was hard to guard against and was the most difficult to deal with.

Dudian didn’t see much of the Old Fox’s ability. He knew that Barker’s bones were healing fast. He was sure that Barker was injured on purpose. Moreover he was pretending to be bandaged afterwards, it was a complete lie.

Dudian analyzed the abilities of the three of them. The three of them also gave an impression of Dudian’s ability. He was strong and sharp!

No matter how strong the defense of the Abyss Monsters was, they were as fragile as paper under Dudian’s sharp blade. They had to use all their strength to barely cause damage. However Dudian’s sharp blade could cut through them, this made the three of them quite afraid. Although they had their own abilities but Dudian might not be their opponent if they were caught off guard. But Dudian’s ability was the most terrifying in a head on fight, they couldn’t compete with him. Their weapons would be cut off. If Dudian’s fighting skills were high then with this ability he would be a god of death!

However the three of them were glad that Dudian’s ability seemed to be more extreme. He didn’t show any other abilities except for his sharp attacks. Even his perception was weak.

When they got to know each other, they came to the ice forest outside the Ice Lake. It was May and summer had just arrived, but the place was still very cold. The branches of the forest were covered with ice debris.

Dudian was surprised to see the ice and snow weather. It was completely unscientific. After all, this was not the Arctic. It was still frozen three feet in the summer, it was hot outside the ice forest but it was like entering another world in the forest. The reason why the Arctic was frozen all year round was because it was far away from the Sun.

“Be careful. The Arctic ice dragon might not stay in the ice lake all the time. It might also come to the forest to find food.”Holaney reminded the hunting group.

Monica curiously looked at the ice forest: “Is the area affected by the Arctic ice dragon so big that it can freeze here?”

“This Arctic ice dragon has lived here for a long time. It is said that it has lived here for 40-50 years.”Barker knew more, he whispered: “Because of it, the monsters around it have been infected with a similar ice constitution. These monsters live in this forest so the temperature here is so low. Be careful.”

Monica suddenly understood.

Dudian was surprised. Had they lived for forty to fifty years? It should be known that the war in the world of monsters was more brutal than in the human world. It was almost impossible to dominate the same territory outside the giant wall for forty to fifty years. Moreover, this was the abyss pit.., the ultra-high radiation in the pit was constantly causing the monsters to mutate. Every day a new overlord was born. The resources were limited. The new overlord and the previous Lord would fight for territory. The loser would be swallowed.., this was the law of survival outside the giant wall. How Strong was this extreme frost dragon to be able to guard this place for forty to fifty years?

Could it be that even that terrifying monster from the magic pool couldn’t do anything to it in these forty to fifty years?
