1347 Faith 1

"Yes, I happened to see a rainbow when I broke in..."

The one-eyed sandman Saliman just said this, but his eyes suddenly widened!

Because at this time, there was a blue sky above the sky, and the rolling mountains in front of us were also covered by lush forests. There was no trace of being baptized by rain at all!

Seeing the horrified and astonished look of the one-eyed sand man Saliman, Raymond sighed helplessly. "That valley might just be an illusion, and you were fooled..."

The one-eyed sandman Saliman, who raised his neck and looked around, quickly lowered his head. However, the monsters that had entered the arbor forest where the shadow guards were located launched a fierce attack at this moment, and various spells radiated light in the arbor forest. It kept shining, but except for the various noises made by the monsters under the Ferocious Beast Alliance, there was no movement from the shadow guards who were being killed continuously!

But Becky, the girl who had been sitting on Raymond's right shoulder and accompanying Crystal, stood up in vain and twitched her nose. Then she grabbed a strand of Raymond's black hair that was hanging by his ear and yelled angrily. "What an idiot! There is a huge cave more than three hundred meters diagonally below!"

After being stunned for a moment, Raymond penetrated his senses into the ground, but no matter how much he probed, he found nothing. The one-eyed sandman Shaliman, who had his arm transformed into sand and plunged into the mountain, soon turned his blank gaze over. Obviously there is no gain.

Seeing this, the girl Becky sat down angrily, turned her face to one side, frowned, pursed her lips tightly, and stopped speaking.

But after a moment, Raymond, who asked the chip to draw graphics on the mountain he had just scanned, his eyes lit up. Because there is an area that cannot be displayed in the three-dimensional model simulated by the chip!

Raymond, who understood that this was where the cave was, signaled the one-eyed sand man Shaliman to follow and then moved forward more than three hundred meters. He pointed at the mountain at his feet and asked the girl Becky. "Is the center of the cave right here?"

The girl Becky, who rolled her eyes at Raymond, nodded, but there was finally a hint of a smile in her eyes.

"Do it!"

After speaking, Raymond immediately took off into the air. The five hard tentacles formed from his left arm pierced into the mountain like drills, causing the rocks and soil below to be instantly shattered!

But the one-eyed sandman Saliman, whose body had turned into sand again, followed the rapidly rotating drill bit, rolled up the crushed stones and soil, and carried it away, so that Raymond could continue to sink with him!

One hundred meters...

Two hundred meters...

Three hundred meters...

When Raymond, who was heading straight down, reached a depth of three hundred meters. Only then did he realize in vain that he had passed through an extremely obscure force field film.

After he continued to go down for more than ten meters, there was finally no obstacle under the drill-like tentacle, which made Raymond's eyes light up and he finally saw the cave hidden in the mountain!

The huge cylindrical cave, about two hundred meters high, is supported by an extremely large force field barrier. Although the line of sight is slightly blocked, the general situation inside can still be seen.

The shadow guards wrapped in rich black energy formed dozens of square formations. It is roughly estimated that their number is as high as tens of thousands!

At the innermost end of the cave is an altar made of black stones. Above the altar is a space door wrapped in a distortion field!

Raymond, who broke through the mountain in vain from the top of the mountain, was also noticed by the people near the altar at this time, but the teams on the south side that were moving towards the south passage did not show any changes due to this, and those who were moving towards the south passage did not see any changes. The many legion wizards busy around the altar only glanced at it and stopped paying attention.

Only a wizard who was standing above the altar, his whole body covered in rich black energy, slowly rose into the air, and actually passed through the force field barrier and came directly to Raymond.

The rich black air that obscured its entire surface quickly faded. A resolute but slightly old face appeared, followed by this person who bowed slightly and saluted Raymond with the most popular etiquette in the land of towers!

"I am Hoover, the commander of the third detachment of the Monbia Army..."

After the introduction, the man glared at Raymond and roared. "Why are you obstructing this operation? Don't you know that plane invasion requires the participation of the entire plane to ensure victory?"

Raymond, who didn't expect to be questioned like this, couldn't help but be stunned, but Hoover didn't finish his words. But he pointed at the shadow guards who were heading towards the south passage and roared in pain. "Do you know that these are the combat capabilities of the Mombia Army? They should not have suffered losses in a place like this!"

Facing the deep regret between Hoover's brows. Raymond, whose anger quickly built up in his chest, also roared. "To you, they are just combat power? Before they were refined into such a form, they were all living creatures! They are all living creatures with the right to survive! Why do you deprive them of them just because they 'need combat power'? They have the right to continue to live! And they still use such a cruel method to refine it!”

Hoover, whose pupils shrank suddenly, tightened his expression and asked in surprise. "Who are you! How do you know this!"

“Does it matter who I am?”

Raymond's rhetorical question made Hoover even more suspicious. There seemed to be a moment of confusion in his eyes, but then he spoke as if he had some realization. "The formation of these combat forces is the top secret of the Supreme Council. Are you a member of the Council of Elders?"

Raymond did not answer but asked back. "Shadow Guard? Or Shadow Guard? Or do you call these combat forces the Sky Shadow Guard?"

"No comment!" Hoover, who rejected it categorically, slowly retreated and spoke after getting close to the force field barrier. "I don't want to know who you are now, and I don't want to care about what happened before! As long as you withdraw now, I can pretend that this matter didn't happen!"

Looking at the force field barrier below, Raymond soon saw a metal cage covered by some tarpaulins, and various monsters tied up or imprisoned inside.

Raymond, with a gloomy face, immediately guessed the reason why the Monbia Legion appeared here, because most of the captured monsters were females, and there were also a large number of cubs!

"Can you pretend that nothing happened? Did the Supreme Council send you here to collect cubs and mothers to expand the source of combat power?"

Raymond stared at Hoover's expression as he spoke word by word. After noticing that his eyes became a little vague, he realized that his previous guess must be close to the truth, and he could not help but roared in anger. "You can do such a cruel thing. Does the Supreme Council want to destroy the entire plane in order to win!"

"You are wrong! You are totally wrong!"

But Raymond's roar was exchanged for Hoover's more angry roar. "In order to restore the glory of the plane in the past, even if the entire plane is destroyed, it is worth it! Any pity and sympathy should not appear on us wizards, because we are the rulers of the entire plane! We can decide the future of the entire plane! These monsters can be regarded as combat power, no matter what means are taken, it is worth it!"

Hoover's words stunned Raymond, and Hoover, who was full of regret, slowed down his voice and continued. "My Lord, I know that you are very powerful. The Supreme Council needs a hermit like you to join the war, because only by mobilizing the combat power of the entire plane can we lay the foundation for the final victory..."

Raymond, who realized that the man in front of him was quite stubborn, couldn't help but sneered and asked back. "You want to convince me?"

"Yes! The longing and expectation for victory is the only belief that I insist on. If you are willing to join, it's okay to let these monsters in the Qingmai Forest go! If your goal is to preserve them, I can give you a positive answer now!"

The resounding statement made Raymond feel inexplicably absurd, but facing the old wizard in front of him who firmly believed that everything he did was for the glory of the plane to be restored, he seemed to be unable to find words to persuade him for a while!
