Chapter 744: Backstab (2)
Editor: Atlas Studios
In the deep underground space, there was also a faint light source.
After passing through the bottom of the passageway, the surroundings immediately became clear.
He glanced around and could not see the end even with Jiang Li’s vision. It seemed that the records left behind by the Royal Court’s Ancestor were not bragging.
They were in an extremely vast desolate plain.
In the distance below, there were several ancient buildings.
It looked like it had been abandoned for a long time, but it could be seen that the scale was indeed not small back then. It should be the ruin left behind by the abandoned farm.
In this space, what emitted a faint fluorescent light were the pearls decorating the dome above.
However, it seemed that because the energy was exhausted, more than 90% of the pearls were no longer bright. The remaining ones were also very dim and could barely provide some light.
Without sunlight and the illumination of these pearls, the internal space of this Northern Dark Ark naturally became dim and lifeless.
Jiang Li landed on the ground and grabbed a handful of soil. Sure enough, it was loose and emitted a rotting smell.
Due to the fact that there was no sunlight all year round, there was naturally no natural phenomenon like clouds, rain, or lightning here.
The soil that had lost its moisture had long turned to sand, and all the plants had withered. Only some dried plant roots and some small insects were still mixed in.
The environment was indeed quite harsh.
This was the reason why this space was abandoned.
However, if this ark was placed in the Azure Cloud Continent, it would not be difficult to find a medium-sized sect. Even if it could not solve the problem of flying, it would not be difficult to let it achieve an energy cycle again.
The method was very simple. It was just like most sect bases, connecting the earth vein through array formations to receive the power of the earth vein.
If Jiang Li personally took action, he would be able to revive this space in less than half a day.
Connecting a sufficiently large earth vein and emitting light through the pearl was enough to allow the plants and creatures in the space to live normally.
Using the array formation as a human to stir up the wind and clouds and simulate a natural phenomenon could make people live more comfortably than the outside world.
However, due to technical limitations, the Armored Trolls did not understand the profundity of array formations.
“Lord, be careful. Something is coming!”
At this moment, rustling sounds came from all directions.
Clearly, something was approaching quickly.
Under the faint light, one could still see that they were all wearing tattered prison clothes.
Clearly, they were armored prisoners who had been thrown down over the years.
However, some of them were still running on their feet, while others were on all fours. They roared repeatedly, and it did not look like an intelligent race at all.
In the cultivation world, all Foundation Establishment cultivators could abstain from eating. They could survive very well with only the spiritual qi of heaven and earth and a small amount of water.
Although the Armored Trolls were different and would usually satisfy their desires, they were also creatures of the Nine Provinces who relied on spiritual qi to become stronger.
The principle was not much different.
After reaching a certain level of strength, it was impossible to starve the experts to death.
However, the armored nobles among these prisoners were better. They could maintain their rationality and human form for a long time.
Those armored commoners with extraordinary strength and ordinary bloodlines were unlucky.
After being thrown into this space, they would not starve to death, but under the circumstances that they could not obtain food for a long time, their rationality had long disappeared, and they had become wild Armored Trolls again.
The ones rushing over were basically crazy wild Armored Trolls.
The housekeeper, Alfred, who was originally standing behind the Golden Duke, took a few steps forward and blocked the master who was theoretically much stronger than him.
Then, he decisively tore open his sleeve and reached out to scratch the large pustules on it.
Sizzle! Sizzle!
Immediately, the thick liquid in the large pustule spewed out and splattered on the ground in front of him. It continuously swelled and quickly transformed into blurry human figures.
This move was called Pus Soldiers!
Although the appearance was a little disgusting, its might was much stronger than the Wood Demon soldiers that Jiang Li had used the Demon Awakening Technique to awaken on a large scale.
It could also cause mental and physical damage to the enemy.
At least 90% of the female cultivators would probably turn around and run when they saw such soldiers.
The prisoners who rushed up were not the Banishment Army’s match. However, there were clearly more of them, and they were temporarily entangled in chaos.
From afar, more people heard the commotion. The monster was rushing towards them.
Alfred wanted to tear open his clothes and continue exploding.
The Grand Duke hurriedly stopped him. This move was really too disgusting.
Instead, Anduin Gold stood in front of him, condensing a merciless sun in his hand and raising it high above his head.
The scorching sunlight immediately spread.
It had been a long time since the prisoners who had stayed in the Northern Dark Space for dozens or hundreds of years had seen such scorching sunlight.
They covered their eyes and instinctively retreated in fear.
Under the huge difference in strength, the quantity was meaningless.
The Golden Duke was prepared to release the “sun rain” that could cover thousands of monsters and kill them all.
However, at this moment, he felt a chill in his heart.
A sharp blade pierced through his heart from behind!
He slowly turned his head.
Behind him, the housekeeper, Alfred, who still had a gentle smile on his face, was stabbing a sharp blade into the back of his master’s torso.
