Reincarnation Paradise: Giant Treasure Chest

Following the dead tree signposts along the way, Ivia walked for less than an hour before a hole several meters wide and slanting downward appeared in front of her. Hot air drifted out of the hole.

Walking into the sloping cave, a warm feeling came towards her. When Ivia stopped, she was already in a vast underground space.

Although this place is underground, it is not dark because there are many glowing vines growing on the soil above.

On both sides of the underground space, there are many rock buildings. These rock houses are stacked together and look like a honeycomb, with fixed ladders crisscrossing on them.

A black rock sculpture stands at the entrance of the city, and the dungeon mound is close.

Chapter 478 Betrayal of the past

With the experience of the elven city-state, Ivia had some understanding of the technological level of the tree world, and the appearance of the underground city in the electrical age was within Ivia's expectations.

But the broken statue at the entrance looked familiar to Ivia.

After careful identification, Ivia confirmed that this was the statue of the Ghost Queen. However, the statue was well protected by the mushroom people and other races in the outside world, but here in the ghost tribe, it was cut in half, and there were even many scratches on the statue.

There's even a tattered sign under the statue that says "Betrayer."

Ivia immediately turned to look at the Mushroom Prophet, because its previous performance clearly showed that it was trying to trick Ivia into joining the Ghost Clan.

"Ah, I'm old now. I can't remember anything that happened."

The Mushroom Prophet pretended to be stupid at this time.

But there was no need for the Mushroom Prophet. Several ghosts with horns on their heads rushed to Ivia like guards.

The two guards were in disbelief at first, then spoke angrily:

"You dare to come back? You betrayer!"

After shouting this, the two men suddenly realized who was in front of them and quickly sent a signal to call for support from the main force.

Aivia did not stop this behavior, but looked at the ghosts who were no different from ordinary people thoughtfully.

There is indeed something wrong with this world's ecological chain.

Generally speaking, in the normal development of the world, the existence in it will be stratified according to low, medium and high strength.

The low level represents resources or the lowest races, the middle level represents ordinary extraordinary species, and the high level represents the world overlords, that is, predators.

The existence of vine people and mushroom people is very strange. These two extraordinary races that are similar to plants and are inherently weak must meet one of the two conditions if they want to evolve into a tribal system.

First, there is a strong person in this tribe who protects their development, and second, they have no natural enemies and can grow freely.

This is the only way to get through the long transition period from being an unintelligent creature to an intelligent one.

Ivia has now seen that the two races that once ruled the world have both: the elves have opened a cheat that will cause endless troubles, and the ghosts are not strong enough to crush the other races.

In this way, a strange scene appeared in the world, and the world was barren.

By digging any hole, you can dig out a rich tree-growing world with flowing elements and enriched springs, but it has failed to produce powerful people and superior races that transcend the world.

So much so that the vines and mushrooms that were supposed to be resources have evolved into extraordinary races and stood on the chessboard.

Ivia looked up at the sky, at the Void Tree that protected this world, and shook her head.

this is not right.

Just like the past history of this world, sooner or later there will be people like those light-chasing Ada people, who will bring light to the whole world and make the whole world move forward, even if they themselves die and their clans are destroyed.

Of course, the ones who can do this are definitely not these wretched ghosts in front of us.

"It seems that except for the elves, I fight with other races when I meet them?"

Aivia said to the Mushroom Prophet speechlessly.

"Kill them all, and no one will dare to bare their teeth at you in the future!" Gollum said with murderous intent.

When the ghost army heard Guru's words, they all took a step back.

"Someone, tell me why you're treating my statue like this?"

Ivya asked patiently.

"traitor!"

"traitor!"

"We have nothing to say to you!"

"roll!"

This group of ghosts don't have the courage to take action, but they are very good at talking. They are showing their fangs and claws but won't rush forward.

The gathered ghosts have almost blocked the passage to the underground city.

It’s more like they are here to watch the fun rather than to fight.

The stalemate was broken with the arrival of a wrinkled old ghost.

"Yuro, long time no see."

The old ghost's tone was complex, suppressing the noise of many other ghosts.

Obviously, the ghost queen as recognized within the ghost clan is different from the image of the queen in the tree-born world. Judging from the appearance of this old ghost, he is still an acquaintance of the former ghost queen.

That means the other party knows what happened in the past, at least the history told by the ghosts, although it doesn't mean much to Ivia.

Then Guru's opinion is very valuable for reference.

Ivia's soul power surged out, suspending everyone in the air like fruits.

The complicated expression on the old ghost's face turned into shock.

"You are not Yuro, who are you?"

"Why do you care who I am? Why are you calling me a traitor?"

Aiweiya asked domineeringly.

The old ghost looked at another acquaintance, the Mushroom Prophet, who looked as if he was gloating.

"Traitor! Are you going to retaliate against the ghost clan that gave birth to you and raised you?"

Aivia could tell from the words of this old ghost that he was powerful on the outside but weak on the inside.

The power of the soul turned from restraints into solid ice, freezing all the other ghosts and isolating them from the old ghosts.

"You can tell the truth now." Ivia gave him the opportunity very tolerantly.

"Yes, tell me quickly!" The Mushroom Prophet looked excited, waiting for the old ghost to speak.

The old ghost tribe member was hung in the air, watching the ghost tribe being destroyed almost instantly. You have to know that the remaining ghost tribe members are now all huddled in the underground city of Qiuli, with a sparse population. This level of damage is already a serious injury.

"It's okay, they're not dead. Come and explain. If the explanation is good, everything will be fine. If the explanation is not good, the ghost tribe will have no future."

The ghost tribe is not like the mushroom tribe and vine people, who have established living areas. Ivia needs to divide their territories according to their characteristics.

The old ghost looked at Ivia, then at the Mushroom Prophet, and spoke with gritted teeth.

The frozen souls on the ground have caused the ghost clan to suffer from alienation for generations, but they cannot leave the cold cemetery. It’s not that they don’t want to leave, but all the paths leading to the ancient capital of Yada are blocked by a wall of fog.

The ghosts also want to migrate to the white swamp north of the cold cemetery to avoid the freezing of their souls. However, they cannot defeat the tribes living in the white swamp and can only occasionally go there to steal some resources, such as food.

"What race is in the White Swamp?"

Ivia asked curiously.

"It's another branch of the Mushroom Clan!"

Mushroom Prophet replenished in time.

Aiweiya asked the old ghost with some doubt:

"Are you saying that the Mushroom Clan that protects my statue is at war with you?"

"Yes." The old ghost said expressionlessly.

There was something fishy going on here. Seeing that the old ghosts seemed unwilling to speak, Ivia didn't ask any more questions and instead asked:

"Besides the so-called alienation, do you have any other problems?"

Ivia has solved the problem of alienation, and the fog on the ground has now been cleared.

The old ghost tribe obviously couldn't hear Ivia's hidden words and continued to complain.

Generation after generation of ghosts have survived in the cold cemetery, transforming vast numbers of them into ice slaves. Long ago, the number of ice slaves far outnumbered the ghosts. Before the situation became uncontrollable, the ghosts constructed deep underground tombs. After years of hard work, they finally trapped vast numbers of ice slaves within the tombs. They were unable to defeat them, so they had no choice but to resort to this method.

If Ivia goes straight along the center at the dividing point, she will arrive at another abandoned dungeon, Siyi, which is located above the deep underground tomb. Over the years, at least hundreds of thousands or even millions of ice slaves have been thrown into it. What's worse is that these ice slaves have become severely alienated in the deep underground tomb, and the remaining power of the abyss below is even more intense.

The ghost clan's royal bloodline had no choice but to build a palace on the innermost side of Siyi, and used the power of powerful individuals to suppress the coldness emitted by the millions of ice slaves below.

This stone chair is the key to warding off evil. When a powerful ghost sits on it, he absorbs the cold air like charging. When the cold air overflows, he will basically die. Then someone else will take over, and the cycle will continue.

The royal bloodline of the ghost clan is not inherited by blood, but by selecting strong people to bear the coldness of the ground to prevent the coldness from invading the few remaining settlements of the ghost clan.

"The Ghost Clan has been like this for generations, until the Ghost Clan Queen appeared. In her words, I've become so powerful that I'm no longer meant to be a vessel."

"Yes, I did say that." Aivia, wearing the appearance of the ghost queen, claimed the appetizing words as her own.

"Then, I can't remember what happened afterwards." Ivia continued to ask.

The old ghost tribe looked at the mushroom prophet again and continued to talk nonsense:

"She means to take us to invade the White Marsh."

The ghost tribe leaders agreed, but the ghost tribe suffered a crushing defeat, with their heads almost smashed, and were no match for the residents of the White Swamp.

After returning from the crushing defeat, the Ghost Queen still refused to sit on the stone chair. When the old ghosts and others discovered this, they started a war with the Ghost Queen in the hall. After losing her legs, the Ghost Queen fled.

The ghost queen's legs were used as substitutes and tied to a stone chair, allowing the cold air from the ground to penetrate into them.

Because his legs had no subjective consciousness and could not completely absorb the underground cold air, another old ghost inserted the iron chain on the stone chair into his body to absorb the cold air that had escaped.

Today, the ghost tribe is struggling to survive in the last underground city, Qiuli, with a population of only 300,000 and is on the verge of extinction.

The contradictory descriptions of the ghosts had ended, and Ivia looked at the mushroom prophet.

"Don't you think there's something wrong with what he said?"

The Mushroom Prophet asked in disbelief.

"I know, but I'm more interested in their current situation and their potential future expansion. Is there any problem here?"

Aiweiya asked.
