Chapter 163

That night.

A shrill scream broke the silence of the land for many years.

"I woke up in panic from my sleep. A slave on duty told me that he had just accidentally fallen asleep, and another companion who was also responsible for taking a nap next to him was dragged away by a terrible monster."

"When I heard the news, I hurried over and found that there were a lot of people around here."

"I tried my best to squeeze into the middle, and then I saw a long bloodstain, some shocking, straight to the dark distance along the scorched land."

"What attacked us? A wolf? A jackal? A shadow Bobcat?"

The first two are social creatures, so Jillian actually prefers the latter.

"We should save our companions!" I told everyone, because since it only attacked one of us, it shows that it has no courage to face everyone. "

"If we want to repair the ship smoothly and then return, instead of worrying all day, we should first deal with this guy who will threaten everyone."

"I persuaded the rest of the crew and slaves, and they agreed with me. Then we organized and everyone chased me..."

In Jillian's description, the ruins of varelia are not much different from the ordinary desolate land. Even some places are no longer the scene of doomsday catastrophe, but begin to grow weeds and trees.

This is different from what the crew and Gillian, including wesselis, who now reads the story through paper, imagined.

The varelian relics have begun to recover gradually under the strong self-healing ability of nature.

Perhaps it was for this reason that all the crew and slaves, including Jillian, relaxed their vigilance.

They think that the most dangerous of the varelian ruins is the sea monsters swimming in the black sea outside, and this land is no different from where they usually live.

Gillian also expressed his repentance in his memoirs, saying it was one of the most wrong decisions he had made in his life.

Encouraged and led by Gillian, these armed sailors and slaves chased after their companions in the dark along the blood flowing on the ground.

The night of this ancient land, even the moonlight, is very thin. I don't know whether it is caused by the smoke shrouded in this lost continent or because today is a cloudy day.

The crew held several torches, which could barely illuminate a little land in front of them. Then they didn't know how far they chased out.

Until some timid people among them had put forward the idea of retreat.

Then the way they explored finally changed a little.

"It seems that the land under your feet can vaguely see that it used to be an ancient road, but it was almost destroyed under the doomsday natural disaster, leaving only a little shadow."

"The blood on the ground seems to be moving along the broken ancient road, and at the end of the road, we finally have a different discovery."

"That's a castle..."

"We vaguely recognized that the outline shrouded in the darkness not far away looked like an ancient castle, but it was obvious that it had become dilapidated, leaving only ruins."

"And the blood on the ground suddenly stopped here, as if it had disappeared out of thin air."

"No doubt."

"This is a castle of valerian nobles, and it is also an exciting discovery, because you can know how much wealth there is in this castle."

"Valeria steel sword, Valeria steel armor, dragon egg, handed down classics, exquisite artifacts forged by superb magic technology, etc..."

"People are not surprised to be divided into two factions at this time."

"One of them turned red when they saw the castle of the valellian nobles and forgot that their mission was to save their companions and kill the monster who attacked them."

"But at this time, they finally remembered that they broke into the ruins of varelia to make a fortune, not to escape back empty handed."

"They even forgot how frightened they were during the day, and even tied me to a stake to burn me."

"What an irony."

In order to organize this fleet into the ruins of varelia, Jillian made a promise. The only purpose of his trip was to find the lost magic soldier "Guangxiao" of Lannister family.

Except Guangxiao, all the treasures belong to whoever gets them first. If anyone dares to rob them, they will be executed by everyone.

And he, the leader, won't take any more points. He uses his last name as a guarantee.

All slaves who are willing to follow him into the ruins of varelia will be released from the status of slaves and become a free man again when they come out, and their wealth will also be effective.

Therefore, under the temptation of these powerful interests, these sailors and slaves were willing to follow Gillian to bravely break through the ruins of Valeria.

Just

They underestimated how terrible the cost of exploring the ruins was, so they were frightened when they just crossed the sea of smoke.

However, now the naked interests are in front of us. There must be amazing wealth in this real varelia castle that no one has ever set foot on, so many of them were moved.

Having taken such a big risk, I came to this land with a narrow escape. I must encounter another risk on the way back.

It's better to let go. If you really find a valerian steel sword and take it out... At the thought of here, some people's eyes turn red.

However, some people are blinded by their interests, while others remain calm.

Think of those sea monsters under the Black Sea.

They thought that there must be terrible monsters hidden in this land, perhaps just the monster who took away their companions.

So such a group of people withdrew.

While thinking about wealth and adventure, they want to go in for exploration, while the other side wants to go back to the seaside camp. There is no essential conflict between the two sides, so they simply go their separate ways.

People who wanted to go back formed a team. Because the fog around them was hazy and could not tell the direction, they had to go back again along the blood on the ground.

And another group of brave people have sorted out their armor and weapons and are ready to enter this dilapidated castle to fight for wealth.

Gillian Lannister was among them.

He came to explore the ruins of varelia to prove his ability and get out of the aura of his brothers.

Now the opportunity is in front of us. How can we give up easily.
