Gatekeeper of all realms

Chapter 235 Internal strife
Shen Ye continued moving forward along the underground river.

Twenty minutes later.

The river begins to form a waterfall extending downward.

The water roars.

"Can you sense any breath of life?" he asked the big skeleton.

"No, there are no living creatures within hundreds of miles." said the big skeleton.

Shen Ye fell down and squatted on the protruding rock at the edge of the waterfall, looking into the unfathomable abyss.

——There is no bottom at all.

Where on earth did Teacher Yang Yingzhen go?
But she is a teacher, she should be stronger than all of us.

Forget it, since I can’t find her, I’ll just prepare food for my classmates first.

With this thought in mind, he opened the door and stepped through.

Nightmare world.

The secret passage of the human camp.

Shen Ye waited quietly for a while, then went out and walked along the path until he saw the flag with three daggers painted on it.

That's right, the tent here belongs to the Brotherhood.

"Can I come in?"

he asked at the door.

Immediately a male voice sounded:
"Peppa? Welcome, welcome, please come in!"

When Shen Ye walked in, he saw the three assassins who were originally sitting inside stood up excitedly and made the "I love you" gesture to Shen Ye together.

Shen Ye responded with a "I love you too" gesture -

In fact, it is just shaking up and down twice in the gesture of "I love you".

"What's the situation now?"

Shen Ye asked.

"The incident of detaining spies has had a huge impact. There are reports that the king is preparing to deprive the prince of his title of Commander of the Imperial Royal Cavalry." said an assassin.

"This medal is not important, but it is a sign that the prince has fallen from power," said another assassin.

"Who is the spy captured by the undead? Is there any reliable information?" Shen Ye asked again.

"I don't know. The undead are keeping silent about this."

"The defenses of Evernight City are getting tighter. We can't send any more spies there. If they are discovered, it will just add fuel to the fire and the situation will become even more serious."

Shen Ye nodded and said:
"Don't act rashly. Leave the rest to me. But I need some food, enough for more than a hundred people to eat for a few days. Can you help prepare it?"

"No problem, we have a military supply warehouse." said the oldest assassin.

"What is there to eat?" Shen Ye asked.

"Kilned fish, sausages and canned beef, and of course sugar and tea."

“No imperial packaging.”

"Understood. For concealment." The assassin nodded in understanding.

"How long will it take to give it to me?" Shen Ye asked.

"soon!"

The two assassins immediately went out to do the job. About seven or eight minutes later, they came back with a small box in their hands.

This is a simple marching space storage box that can hold things similar to those of a small warehouse.

With this, feeding more than a hundred students will no longer be a problem.

As for the water source——

Shen Ye knew that the empire's marching army brought along several water mages, who cast spells to draw water and distribute water bags every time.

This is to prevent the enemy from poisoning you.

There is no way to deal with water.

However, the students in our Xirang High School are the best in schools all over the world.

It's not difficult to get some water.

Besides, there is groundwater in the tomb, which can be drunk after purification.

It's done.

"Don't tell anyone that I've been here. Now I'm going to Eternal Night City to find out what's going on." Shen Ye said.

"Please be careful and take care of yourself," said the assassins.

"Don't worry." Shen Ye waved his hand and left the tent.

He found a secluded place, opened the door, and stepped back.

It is still a large underground tomb.

Shen Ye took out a piece of cake and ate it while thinking.

"Big Skeleton, do you think we should go back to hell now and collect your mother's bones?"

He asked for advice.

The big skeleton said in a cautious tone:
"I hope you can do this when you are in the best condition, because once you start collecting, you must finish it within seven hours - this is related to my mother's safety."

Shen Ye nodded.

hell……

We still have to continue going.

But I can do something else first, and when I am in the best condition, I can start looking for the bones of the Lord of the Underworld.

Shen Ye stood up, leaped forward, and jumped down the waterfall.

"Hey, we are going deep into the tomb, please be careful."

The big skeleton reminded nervously.

That's true.

Shen Ye did not refute, and condensed frost into Guanghan Sword, and said:

"Come here, I am a drop of water."

"Finger Shadow" is activated!
Plus the triple effect of Moonlight Divine Light.

Shen Ye opened his arms and floated down the stream like the water droplets splashing in the air.

We flew like this for more than twenty minutes.

Dark depths.

A few torches came into view.

Shen Ye looked carefully and saw that the waterfall fell into a deep pool, divided into several streams, and meandered outward into a stream.

A team stopped by the stream.

It was they who lit the torches.

Shen Ye looked at the group of people from afar.

——The fifth level of the Dharma Realm, summoning magic spirits;

Sixfold summoning of spirits;

The seventh level is almost rare in the world. Perhaps only masters like Jiuxiang can be called the seventh level.

However, according to information from various sources, several top masters in the "Five Desires" world did not go down to the tomb.

They only sent their men in.

——It should be cherishing life.

Perhaps the invasion of the world is not so smooth, and they need to take charge from the outside.

Anyway-

After seeing the strong sense of oppression from Jiu Xiang, these people could not be considered dangerous at all. Shen Ye thought about it and moved closer to them.

If it were still a drop of water at this time, it would be a bit inappropriate.

How could water droplets float in the air forever?

"Come here, I am a branch."

Shen Ye said.

He moved slowly along the stream toward the torch.

Like a branch being carried forward by the current.

A few minutes later.

Shen Ye stood by the stream behind the group of people.

This is a team of more than a dozen people.

Many of them were injured and were sitting around the fire, taking a short rest.

Shen Ye observed it closely for a while and soon showed a look of surprise.

The big skeleton also sent out a telepathic message:
"That bald guy gives me a very familiar feeling. He should be a necromancer."

Necromancer!

That's right.

Shen Ye looked at the bald man with gray skin and gray eyes, feeling the familiar aura of decay and death from him, and confirmed this.

When I first arrived in the City of Eternal Night and was in the Veterans Guild, it was a necromancer who received me.

"It seems that there is no such profession as Necromancer in our world."

Shen Ye said thoughtfully.

"That's right. I've been in your world for so long, but I've never seen a necromancer - this profession should be unique to our nightmare world." The big skeleton also said.

They both realized something at the same time.

Maybe--

In the nightmare world, the traitor who defected to the "Five Desires" has already entered this world?

"It's hard to say. Let's wait and see."

Shen Ye said.

The big skeleton also seemed to begin to observe carefully.

The two looked for a while and gradually found more things wrong.

"That's not right. Look at that assassin. He uses the hood of his cloak to cover his face, but if you look closely, his ears are pointed."

The big skeleton said.

"That's right, look at that man. He is wearing a bathrobe from our world, but he is actually wearing a knight's armor underneath - with the violet emblem of the human empire on it. I have seen this emblem next to the prince!" Shen Ye said.

They looked over the group.

——That’s right, these people come from the nightmare world!

At this time, the bald necromancer stood up first, clapped his hands and said:

"Okay, get ready to go."

A female professional also stood up and said coldly:

"We have found the High Priest of the Wasteland, but he has no idea how to unlock the Seal of Fate, and doesn't even know where the seal is."

"Under this circumstance, should we continue exploring?"

The necromancer looked at her and then at the others.

The others lowered their heads and remained silent.

"This is an order."

The Necromancer said.

"I know it's an order - of course I obeyed it, but the High Priest of the Wasteland has already escaped - it doesn't know anything about the Seal of Fate." said the female professional.

"So we must go deeper and look for information about the Seal of Fate." said the Necromancer.

"The deeper the place, the more dangerous it is. Just now, dozens of people died in the fight against the High Priest of the Wasteland, and even we almost lost our lives." said the female professional.

Shen Ye felt that this sounded familiar, and after a moment of recollection, he remembered the significance of "High Priest of the Wasteland".

——The Eternal Poisonous Corpse, the High Priest of the Wasteland and the Nine Netherworld Drought Demon.

The three of them spread false news, saying that they could unlock the seal of fate.

What he encountered was the eternal poisonous corpse.

This group of people went to look for the High Priest of the Wasteland.

I don’t know if anyone else will go looking for the Eternal Poisonous Corpse after I left.

There was a hint of anger in the female professional's tone:
"Now we don't even know the location of the Seal of Fate."

“I don’t even know how to break it.”

"I refuse to go any further."

The necromancer strode over, grabbed her by the neck and lifted her up.

"Do you want to die? I'll help you do that now!"

He squeezed her neck tightly and activated the spell -

boom!
The female professional was blasted out by the magic, flew dozens of meters away, and landed beside the stream.

She was silent.

The professionals were silent.

Only the murderous voice of the Necromancer sounded:

"Lord Tianluo gave us an order himself. We cannot disobey it even if we all die."

"Remember this, traveling across the world to get here is not an easy task."

"There are only a limited number of masters who surrender in this world."

"We must carry out the adults' orders."

The Necromancer emphasized:
"If it's not completed, the consequences will be more terrifying than death—"

"Think about it carefully!"

After these words were spoken, the professionals seemed to have thought of something.

They stood up one by one, preparing to set off.
The necromancer nodded with satisfaction.

"set off!"

Under his leadership, the team continued to advance deeper into the tomb.

Shen Ye stood there and waited for a while.

"Gone?" he asked.

"Yeah." said the big skeleton.

"What about this one? Dead?"

"He is indeed dead."

Shen Ye squatted down and pushed aside the hood on the female professional's head.

Long brown hair.

Dark purple skin.

Pointed ears.

——This is a dark elf.
