Chapter 410 Hell Creek Family

Federation, central Montigny.

Surrounded by a vast expanse of pristine jungle, stands a towering mountain.

From a distance, about one-third of the top of the mountain is covered with white snow, surrounded by thick clouds.

"Look, that's Mount Dainaso. It's the highest peak in the Federation, with an altitude of 6,435 meters, and it's also the only mountain in the Federation that has not been conquered by humans."

On the outskirts of the pristine jungle, a group of tourists, led by a guide, looked out at the towering Mount Dainaso.

"Why?" a tourist asked curiously, "Is it because it's too high?"

The tour guide shook his head, "It has nothing to do with the height. There are many mountains in the world that are higher than Mount Denaso, but they have not been able to stop the mountaineering team. The reason why this place has never been conquered is because it belongs to a large family's private property."

"Private property?" Many tourists were surprised and said, "The whole mountain is private property?"

"To be precise, including Mount Denaso, the original jungle starting from here is private property!" The tour guide smiled and pointed to a warning sign not far away and said, "Our visit can only stop here. Going further is someone else's private territory."

The tourists looked at the warning sign and saw that it said: "From here on, it is the private territory of the Hell Creek Family. Those who trespass will bear the consequences at their own risk."

"Hell Creek Family?" A young man curled his lips, a little Unconvinced, "Such a grand ceremony?"

The girl next to him also looked around: "I don't see any fences or anything like that. What would happen if someone didn't notice the warning sign and walked in?"

"Don't try it out of curiosity." The tour guide warned: "I don't know what the relationship is between the Hell Creek Family and the Montaigne State Government, but I can tell you with certainty that they have the right to deal with any intruders at will in their private territory. As far as I know, more than a thousand people go missing every year because they mistakenly enter this jungle. I don't want you to become one of those thousand."

"Okay, everyone come here, we'll go to the next location, where we can see Mount Dainaso better..."

Under the guidance of the tour guide, the tourists turned and walked towards the tour bus. Only the couple seemed a little unwilling and looked back at the deep jungle.

Especially the young man, he seemed to feel that there was some unknown existence in the jungle ready to move, arousing his curiosity.

"Joe, let's go, the bus is about to start. What's there to see in this broken forest!"

"Oh..." Facing his girlfriend's call, the young man finally came to his senses, looking back and leaving with the main group.

When the tour group left, a huge monster slowly appeared in the depths of the jungle.

This monster was four or five meters tall, more than ten meters long, covered with hard scales, with a bloody mouth, two thin arms tucked in front of the chest, and a thick and long tail straightened backwards, keeping balance with the front half of the body. It looked like a carnivorous dinosaur that traveled from ancient times.

"Really, that man almost walked in..."

The huge carnivorous dinosaur's lips moved, and he actually spoke human words, with a touch of regret in his tone.

At this moment, a somewhat dull mobile phone ring sounded. The big dinosaur was stunned for a moment, looked down, and then changed his body shape, shed the appearance of a dinosaur, and finally revealed a tall, bearded, blond man who looked to be in his forties. As he turned back into human form, the ringtone of the phone became clearer.

The man reached out from his pocket and took out his phone, answered it impatiently, and put it to his ear.

"Hello? I'm taking a walk? What's up... What?!" The man's tone was lazy and impatient at first, but as he spoke, his blue eyes suddenly widened, and his face was full of shock.

"Charles is dead?!"

"Yes..." A cold female voice came from the other end of the phone: "Your useless brother who was sent to Zhendan to perform a mission, his life signal just disappeared."

"He is also my brother even if he is useless!" The man looked annoyed: "Who did it?"

"I don't know yet..." The woman said: "Elder Resard wants to see you and discuss this matter with you."

The man turned his head and glanced at the misty Dainaso Mountain in the distance, and snorted coldly: "I'll be there right away."

After hanging up the phone, the man touched the ground on his toes and took off into the air. He changed his body shape in mid-air and turned into a pterosaur with a wingspan of more than eight meters. He flapped his wings and flew all the way to the top of the mountain.

From a distance, the top of Mount Dainaso is covered with snow all year round, looming in the clouds, but as the pterosaur approaches, it passes through the clouds, and in the vast snow, a green paradise is revealed!

Yes, at the top of the mountain with an altitude of more than 6,000 meters, unlike the snow below that never melts all year round, the climate here seems to have been changed by some mysterious force, becoming warm and humid, and growing various rare plants, forming a large beautiful garden. In this garden, you can see a large area of ​​castles built on the mountain, with various towers, houses, and statues scattered in an orderly manner, like an ancient city in the sky.

The pterosaur flew directly to one of the towering towers, changed back to human form in the air, and landed on the windowsill of the tower.

"You don't go through the door again." An intellectual beauty with glasses and long golden hair stood on the windowsill. Although she blamed him with words, it can be seen from her expression that she seemed to be prepared for the man's unusual way.

"I only care about my brother's safety." The man snorted coldly. The woman sighed, turned around and waved her hand, opened the floor-to-ceiling window on the balcony, and led him in.

There is a circular hall on the top floor of the tower. There is a huge desk facing the balcony. An old man with a white beard wearing glasses is writing at the desk. After noticing the man, he raised his eyelids and looked over his face. Hua Jing glanced at him.

"Elder Lessard!" The man walked straight to the desk and slapped his hands on the table: "What happened to my brother?"

Lessard did not answer his question directly, but frowned: "You have reached the peak, and you are still so frizzy..."

As he said that, he sorted out what he had just written: "Niklai, don't forget, you are facing an old guy who is more than a hundred years old. My heart cannot withstand your surprise. movement."

"Stop pretending to me..." Nikolai snorted: "I don't think that the old monster who reached his peak more than half a century ago is the same as an ordinary centenarian."

"It's just the peak, it's not the emergence after all..." Elder Lessard sighed: "Our lifespan is longer than that of ordinary people, but after all, we still cannot escape the brilliance of time..."

As he said that, he took off his spectacles and rubbed the bridge of his nose: "In the past few years, I have clearly felt that my eyes have begun to blur, and my body functions have begun to decline uncontrollably... Listen to me, kid, you are more talented than me, take advantage of this." As long as your physical condition allows it, stop looking lazy and find a way to become an immortal. That is the true destination of a cultivator."

"I'm not here to listen to you preaching!" Nickle gritted his teeth and said, "I just want to know how my brother is doing?"

Elder Lessard shook his head: "I don't know..."

"I don't know?" Nikolai frowned and said, "What do you mean?"

"His life signal disappeared." The bespectacled woman on the side said: "Other than that, no other information was sent back."

"He has a cross of rebirth!" Nickle gritted his teeth and said, "Could it be that the life monitoring system misidentified it?"

The bespectacled woman shook her head: "The system showed that his life signal disappeared twice. The first time it disappeared briefly and then recovered instantly. Then a minute later, his signal disappeared again..."

"The ghost state after the cross is activated lasts exactly one minute..." Nikolai realized something, but his eyes widened, unwilling to believe it.

"This means... the cross didn't help him escape from the opponent's grasp. After he released the ghost state, he was killed again in an instant." Lessard looked at Nikolai and said word by word: "The opponent is A master who has no power to fight back!"

"Can kill Charles in an instant..." Nickle gritted his teeth and said: "Although his strength is not very good, he will not be killed so easily. Is his opponent at the top?"

"It's very possible." Lessard nodded.

"Could it be the Yuanxiu Society?" Nikolai snorted coldly: "Those guys have been unwilling to cooperate with us..."

"Impossible." The bespectacled woman immediately retorted: "The Yuan Xiu Order in Cathay has always been very measured in their affairs. Even if Charles violated the rules there, the most they can do is control him and negotiate with us to solve the problem. They won't Killed so decisively."

"And not only Charles, but other clan members who were with him in Cathay have also lost contact. We have reason to believe that they have all died in Cathay and Ningdong! The Yuan Xiu Society will never do this Such an outrageous thing.”

"Ning Dong..." Nikolai frowned: "I applied to investigate the cause of Charles' death!"

Elder Lessard chuckled: "Then why do you think I came to you?"

With that said, he handed the materials he had just written to Nikolai: "I know you have never been to Cathay, and you don't know much about Ningdong. This is the information I compiled about the local cultivator forces in Ningdong. Among them, It also includes inferences about the cause of Charles’ death, which should be useful to you.”

Elder Lessard was so proactive that it surprised Nikolai. He took the materials in a daze: "Didn't the patriarch always prohibit me from leaving here? I thought I needed to ask for his approval..."

"That's because your character is too easy to get into trouble." Lessard said with a smile: "Now you have reached the pinnacle. After several years of consolidation, your realm has long been stable. Except for those few people in the main world who can defeat you, In addition to the number of feathers, I can count them on one hand. I have already communicated with the clan leader that it is time for you to come out. "

"Of course, what's more important is that because you haven't been in the public eye all year round, and the Yuanxiu Society doesn't have any information about you, it's easier for someone who no one knows to move around."

"You want me to act secretly?" Nikolai frowned: "Aren't you representing the Hell Creek family?"

"If something like this happens, the Hell Creek family will definitely arrange for people to go to Cathay to negotiate with the Yuanxiu Society, but official personnel will definitely be closely monitored, and their actions in Cathay will be severely restricted. In contrast, we need A dark line, while taking care of the bright line, allows you to move more freely. ”

"But accordingly, you must also remember that no matter what, you cannot reveal your identity from the Hell Creek family. Similarly, if you have an accident, the Hell Creek family will not recognize your identity. You can only rely on Solve the problem yourself. This means that if you accept this task, you will be removed from the Hell Creek family."

"It's best this way, so you don't have to tie your hands and feet." Nikolai nodded after hearing this and looked through the information in his hand: "How many peaks does Ning Dong have?"

In the information Elder Lessard gave him, a list of people who had the ability to kill Charles was specifically marked. In addition to Su Manchen, who was definitely at the peak, and Yuan Shouzhen, whose strength was not inferior to that of the peak. In addition to these two people, there were two other people marked in it. Their names are Ling Xin and Xing Yang.

"Yuan Shouzhen should not be in Ningdong at the moment, but when you are active in Ningdong, you will probably come into contact with him, so I provided his information. As for the remaining two people, they are not at the peak yet, but because of their special abilities , they have the ability to compete with the best, and they can also kill Charles instantly.”

The girl with glasses introduced: "In addition to these people, there is another important clue, which is that Charles was investigating the whereabouts of the Eternal Star. He regularly reported the progress to the elders, which recorded the direction and progress of his investigation. If you investigate further, you may find some clues.”

"I understand." Nikolai closed the document and nodded: "When should I leave?"

"Now, immediately." Lessard said: "The helicopter is ready and will take you to the nearest airport. I have booked a ticket for you to Ningdong. I hope you can investigate the truth about Charles' death and give yourself An explanation from my brother in heaven.”

"I will!" After saying that, Nikolai walked directly to the window sill, transformed into a pterosaur again and took to the air, flying towards the apron.

After taking a look at Nikolai's leaving figure, the bespectacled woman returned to Elder Lessard: "Is it really appropriate to let this guy out?"

Lessard sighed: "The death of Charles is not important. Our real goal is still the Eternal Star. But in order to find that thing, we have used all the methods we can and found nothing in the end. It's time to take another strong dose. The medicine is gone.”

"Niklai is a lunatic. He doesn't care about the Eternal Star, but the death of Charles will definitely bring out the craziest side of him." Lessard said with a smile: "A peak of madness is enough for those Cathayans. I was a little shocked!”

As soon as he finished speaking, the old guy suddenly coughed violently. The bespectacled woman on the side quickly took the handkerchief. Lessard covered his mouth and coughed a few times. When he took it away, he saw a purple-black blood stain in the handkerchief.

"I'm afraid I don't have much time..." Lessard gritted his teeth and said, "I hope that thing... comes in time..."
