Volume 2 Departure Chapter 92 The Secret of the Ancient Castle (1) Carefree

  "Who are you, to be able to arrive here so quietly and without a sound? You didn't have to go through any battles along the way, nor did you obtain those super divine artifacts below. Moreover, you even discovered the anomaly of this bead and broke the seal on it. Who exactly are you, and why have you come here?"

  "Can you answer my question, young man?"

  A faint voice came from inside the room.

  ——————

  Mo Xin sneaked into the ancient castle and strolled around inside.

  It's no wonder that the people of Laki Kingdom suffered a great loss here. The defensive power inside this ancient castle is indeed not ordinary.

  Mo Xin didn't know whether someone had escaped from the ancient castle, but if Lachi Kingdom knew this secret, it meant that Lachi Kingdom also had no good intentions towards those external forces.

  As for how Laki Kingdom handles this matter, Mo Xin has no opinion on it.

  Borrowing a knife to kill someone, all forces have done this kind of thing before.

  The ancient castle is located in the belly of the mountain range, but the light inside the castle is still good. This is because there are many magic lamps inside the castle, which are more exquisite than those used on the Dragon God Continent. The magic crystals that provide energy for these lamps are all top-grade, making them seem somewhat luxurious, and this expenditure is not small.

  For tens of thousands of years, the energy of these magic crystals has hardly been consumed at all, and the magical lamp is still shining brightly.

  The outer walls of the ancient fortress were guarded by thousands of dark warriors, those skull soldiers summoned from the underworld, Dark Knights.

  Thousands of dark warriors were densely packed, but with a clear hierarchy, like an army, waiting to be dispatched. At this moment, these stationary dark warriors were slowly absorbing the surrounding dark elements and cultivating themselves.

  These dark warriors' killing aura is hidden and not released, but if it's released, it will definitely be a sky-shaking killing aura.

  They guard the periphery of the ancient castle, and any creature that enters the ancient castle will be attacked and torn apart by them together.

  The ground in front of the Dark Warrior's army formation still had blood, armor fragments, and silent ancient castles left behind not long ago. The quiet ancient castle, the silent army formation, the entire scene was very eerie, giving people a strong sense of oppression. If one's strength is too weak, they might directly collapse.

  Among these dark warriors, there are still many high-level warriors. The hardest part of dealing with these dark warriors is that most magic and internal energy have little killing effect on them.

  It's clear that the person who summoned these dark warriors is extremely powerful, at least a super-god level undead mage. Moreover, this person has even inscribed a permanent dark summoning array within the ancient castle, so as long as the number of dark warriors inside the castle decreases, it can automatically replenish to the originally set number.

  As long as the dark summoning array is not destroyed or the energy of the dark summoning array is exhausted, the number of Dark Warriors inside the ancient castle will not decrease.

  However, destroying the summoning array is not that simple. The strongest few holy-level dark warriors are always guarding beside the summoning array, preventing anyone from approaching. Moreover, this dark summoning array is not so vulnerable to attack. The magical defense arrays on top of it are dense and numerous, making them difficult to count. Mo Xin estimates that even a god-level strongman wielding a god-level weapon would need at least half an hour to destroy the magical array.

  This permanent dark summoning magic circle is a big deal, the magical materials that need to be consumed are not ordinary precious, and the quantity of the materials is also enormous.

  The material for engraving this dark summoning array is something that ordinary dark mages and undead mages can only think about.

  Entering the ancient castle, if there aren't a large number of high-level professionals acting together, it's very difficult for those who enter the ancient castle to break through this Dark Warrior level.

  A high-ranking dark warrior whose numbers will never decrease, just thinking about it makes one's head spin.

  If those external forces all come in at once, the first pass can make many of them stay behind, Mo Xin estimates.

  As soon as they entered the ancient castle and saw these dark warriors, Mo Xin suspected that this was not the headquarters of the Dark God Cult, but rather the castle of that crazy undead mage, otherwise there wouldn't be many people with such a hobby.

  Those dark warriors did not stop Mo Xin half a step, and Mo Xin also did not take action against these dark warriors.

  Although Mo Xin had the ability to destroy that dark summoning array and completely eliminate those dark warriors, it would take a lot of time for Mo Xin, which was not something he was interested in. Moreover, Mo Xin did not want to be the vanguard for those people outside.

  With a stealthy breath and Mo Xin's evasion technique, Mo Xin could easily avoid the dark warriors' detection and breeze through the first trial.

  After the Dark Warriors, those who enter the ancient castle will face a group of high-level Alchemist Puppet Warriors. Although their numbers are not as many as the previous Dark Warriors, there are still three to four hundred.

  The Dark Warriors and this group of puppet warriors have a clear boundary, guarding their respective territories.

  Judging from the battle scars inside the ancient castle, no one who entered the ancient castle from the Laji Kingdom had ever passed the first level.

  Looking at these advanced alchemy puppet warriors, Mo Xin couldn't help but feel a little envious.

  These alchemy puppet warriors are all good stuff, if placed elsewhere, Mo Xin would definitely take back all these puppet warriors and study them carefully.

  But now Mo Xin didn't have much thought on it. If he waited until later to go back and happened to bring a few puppet warriors back with him, Mo Xin would still be very interested.

  Take everything away, and Mo Xin won't mind either.

  The materials used to refine these puppet warriors are extremely precious, and the refining techniques are also very ingenious, it is clear that they were created before the era of the Great War between Gods and Demons.

  The soul array inside the puppet warrior is not something that alchemists of this era can inscribe, because the technique for inscribing the soul array has long been lost.

  The Soul Array can preserve the souls of fallen warriors within the puppet warriors, allowing them to retain a large part of their original combat skills. Although it cannot completely preserve their original consciousness, it is enough to ensure that the puppet warriors obey some simple commands, greatly increasing their strength.

  These puppet warriors are not weak, the weakest are all at level 9, and there are many saint-level powers among them.

  The master of this ancient castle seems to be quite extraordinary, Mo Xin couldn't help but think.

  With this batch of puppet warriors, it is enough to take down a kingdom that is not small in size. The physical attack resistance of the puppet warriors is strong, and magical attacks can be immune to a large part, and the remaining non-immune magical attacks can also be greatly weakened. More than 300 puppet warriors are equivalent to nearly a thousand holy-level strongmen's combat power.

  Without a god-level powerhouse or a god-level artifact, these puppet warriors are very hard to be damaged.

  Looking at these puppet warriors, Mo Xin's mood improved a lot. The more complicated this ancient castle was, the happier Mo Xin became.

  The more secrets there are in the ancient castle, the more interested Mo Xin becomes. Mo Xin is eager to make a big profit here.

  Ignoring these puppet warriors that made Mo Xin's eyes turn red, Mo Xin continued to advance deeper into the ancient castle.

  Mo Xin actually wanted to see how many secrets were hidden inside and how many shocking things there were.

  If this place disappoints people, then it will be dismantled and the entire ancient castle will be moved back, Mo Xin thought cruelly.

  Inside, the guardian is a divine-level fire-type dragon soul. It's clear that this divine dragon soul was forcibly imprisoned here. Mo Xin is very curious about who has the audacity to imprison a divine dragon soul in this place.

  The giant dragon clan is not so easy to bully, if the people of the giant dragon clan know that there is a divine-level dragon soul trapped here, it's possible that the entire giant dragon clan will attack.

  The power of the divine dragon soul is not weak, although the power of the dragon soul is definitely inferior to that of a true divine giant dragon. However, the special nature of the dragon soul makes it difficult for most physical and magical attacks to have an effect on it, making it even harder to deal with.

  The dragon soul can recover quickly even if it is dispersed by someone. Unless it is completely destroyed by a powerful spiritual attack, the dragon soul is immortal.

  The divine dragon soul's perception is very strong and sharp, Mo Xin's trail almost got discovered, which made Mo Xin slightly surprised. The deeper he went into the ancient castle, the more cautious Mo Xin became.

  Mo Xin thought that if he were to take this divine dragon soul out and exchange it with the giant dragon clan, wouldn't he be able to get something in return? After all, Mo Xin had heard that the dragon tribe's collection was quite rich.

  Even if it's not given to the Dragon Clan, Mo Xin can seal this divine dragon soul in a weapon, increasing its level and power. It seems that giving this sealed divine dragon soul weapon to Mo Jia would make him very happy.

  She looked back at Longhun with some reluctance and then quickly left.
