Edge of the Apocalypse -
Chapter 975: The Big Four
Seeing that Abel hadn't left yet, Alan smiled and asked, "Do you have anything else to do?"
The youth's expression became somewhat awkward. He nodded and said, "I heard that Lord Alan and you are going to Sardinia?"
"Where did you hear that?"
"That sister said it." Abel lowered his head and said, "Actually, I didn't ask her. I just heard her complaining that you should send her to Sardinia as soon as possible. Well, Lord Alan, can I go to Sardinia with you?"
"What are you doing there?" Ellen blinked his eyes. "Could it have something to do with that so-called important thing of yours?"
"Sort of? That year, our village on the border was suddenly attacked by another lord's army. That night, my father escaped with me, but I still have a sister. I watched her break up the crowd with my own eyes, and every night for years I thought of her, as if I could hear her crying in my ear, asking me to look for her. So I'm going to Sardinia. It's a big city. Maybe I can get news of Mina. If I were alone, I wouldn't be able to get there. "So I beg you, Lord Alan, please take me with you!"
Alan smiled and said, "It's not a big problem to bring you along. But I'm not going to make a loss …"
"I have money!" Abel shouted. Then, he remembered that Alan might not like his little savings. Thus, the youth's voice lowered, "It's just that there aren't many …"
"What do I need your money for?"
Sure enough, Alan's answer was the last thing Abel wanted to hear. When the youth was about to give up, he heard Alan say, "But if you can tell me about the situation in the Land of Darkness in return, I will send you to Sardinia."
Abel raised his head again and said happily, "Really? What does Lord Alan want to know? As long as I know, I will tell you everything."
"Tell me first, which faction is the biggest in the Land of Darkness, and where are they?" Ellen said cheerfully.
"The strongest force is the War Wolves. They occupy the area around the Evil Teeth Barrier. There are hundreds of them …"
The sun finally set, and the night was like a dark banner that was hung in the sky by a heavenly deity. The land of darkness truly became pitch black and dim. On this mountain peak, there were many places where the Imperial Constitution had been dug out, but there were a few places that lit up the darkness puppet with flames. These were the places where the giants were located in the Land of Darkness.
Starting from the southern edge of the Black Wood Forest, through the Bloodbath Highway in the gray hills, one could reach the Evil Teeth Barrier in the southeast. These were several mountain peaks that were naturally situated on the gray hills. The one occupying these mountain peaks was Zhan Lang, one of the giants in the Land of Darkness.
War Wolves were the most numerous of the dark giants, with Undying Joey as the leader. Hundreds of evil wolves were entrenched in the Evil Tooth Barrier. Undying Joey was recognized as the strongest in the Land of Darkness. With his strength of Level 28, all competitors who dared to challenge him would eventually become bones in the Evil Tooth Barrier. Zhan Lang only had one problem, and that was that Joey was no longer young, and this problem was becoming more and more serious over time.
Located in the southwest of the gray hills, opposite to the Evil Tooth Barrier, was the Blood Cypress Forest, where another dark giant, the Unattainable, resided. Within the bloody forest, even the residents of the Land of Darkness didn't know exactly where the headquarters of the Unable was. Everyone only knew that those who were unable to do so would designate the Blood Cypress Forest as a forbidden area, and all actions of stepping into the forbidden area would be regarded as provocations.
The leader of the incapable was Bhutara, who called himself "General", a man who kept himself in a heavy armor all day long. There was a cold joke in the Land of Darkness. General Budala would wear his heavy armor even when he was f*cking a woman. However, no one dared to tell this joke in front of Bu Dala, because this man possessed the strength of Level 25, enough to tear apart all those who dared to tell jokes in front of him.
The gray hills continued northward, leading to the fanged mountain region that stood in the stone forest. The mountains gradually extended northeast, and the terrain became narrower and narrower, eventually forming a narrow blade-like shape. That was the place known as Razor Ridge, and it was also the territory of another Dark Giant, Burial Shadow. The number of Buried Shadows could be said to be the smallest, and even weaker than those Thieves of the second level.
The number of buried shadows would always remain at 78, and these people walking between the razor collar could be said to be mysterious. The War Wolves of the Evil Tooth Barrier always mocked them for being rats that didn't dare to see the light, but Joey had waged several wars against the Buried Shadow and hadn't extinguished them.
As the leader of the Buried Shadow, Shadow Weiss was even more mysterious than an invincible general. The man who was always hiding behind a cloud of fog had never been known about his appearance in the Dark Lands. People were even not sure if the man named Wes had been the same all these years.
As the Fanged Mountains stretched northwest, the terrain would gradually rise, eventually forming a two-winged mountain terrain. That was the territory of another giant in the Land of Darkness, the Eagle Winged Mountain Ridge. The "Black Feather" entrenched in the Eagle Wing Mountain Ridge was made up of all female thieves. The members of Black Feather would tattoo a black feather on their bodies as a mark. This group of thieves could occupy a place in the dark. Naturally, those female members were not fated to use such words as gentle and gentle. Those women were no less ruthless than men, and their leader, Black Warbler, had an inextricable relationship with a great figure in a certain legion of the empire.
The Evil Tooth Barrier, Blood Cypress Forest, Razor Ridge, and Eagle Wing Mountain Ridge were forbidden areas that even the inhabitants of the Land of Darkness would tremble when mentioning. As for the other large and small bandit groups in the Dark Lands, they all attached themselves to these giants, forming a huge and complicated map of interests unique to the Dark Lands.
It was late at night, and a furious roar suddenly sounded from the highest peak of the Evil Teeth Barrier. Then, a huge furnace that required several men to hug each other was lit up. The fire rose two meters high, illuminating the Evil Tooth Barrier. On the tallest mountain, a tall figure appeared in the flames. The man roared, "Find Gurus for me. That kid betrayed me. He took my favorite Margaret, and I'm going to tear him into pieces!"
Immediately, the Evil Tooth Barrier was in a mess.
Joey gasped heavily. The intense gasping made his chest feel as if there was a fire burning, reminding him that he was no longer menstruating. Joey is indeed not young. His once thick hair is now thinner and thinner. His muscular body could already be seen on his stomach. He was obviously not as ruthless as he was when he was young. Otherwise, he would not have broken the boy's legs after discovering that his adopted son, Gurus, and the youngest and most beautiful of his wives, Margaret, were flirting with each other. Even now, on this most ordinary night, his most trusted adopted son had betrayed his favorite woman.
Betrayed him, Joey!
It was an unforgivable thing, and Joey had decided that after finding Gurus, he would crush the young man he had high hopes for and feed him to the dog. As for Margaret, Joey sighed. Poor Margaret must have been bewitched by Gurus. She was so young and beautiful that she looked like a flower growing on a cliff on the Evil Tooth Barrier. How could Joey be willing to punish her? Let alone punish her, he was reluctant to even speak in a heavier tone.
Joey was really old. If she was young, even if Margaret was ten thousand times more beautiful, she would still be executed by him. His ruthlessness gradually died in the passage of time.
The wolves who had sworn Joey's death oath rushed out from the Evil Teeth Barrier. Behind the shadow of a stone building, there were eyes that could see everything.
Gurus retracted his head and looked at the woman curled up in a corner.
Margaret.
The young woman who had just been given to Joey was pale from fear, but this made her look even more frail and helpless. Margaret had long blonde hair like that of an aristocrat, and her classic beauty had fallen in love with her adoptive father at the first glance when she was seen by Gurus. Gurus' biological father, one of Joey's many wolves, died in a battle when he was four years old. Gurus had become an orphan, and Joey was not a nostalgic person. Although he did not drive an orphan like Gurus out, the days of an orphan on the Evil Tooth Barrier could not be said to be easy and pleasant.
Gurus didn't want to remember the hard years of his growth. When he was old enough to fight, Gurus, who was still a teenager, used his blood and scars to bring himself into Joey's sight. In the end, his talent in Origin Energy allowed him to become one of Joey's three adopted sons and gradually become Joey's youngest general.
But Joey never thought that Gurus, who had always been loyal to him, would betray him for a woman!
Gurus did not regret his choice. When the woman said "Take me away" to him, Gurus decided to betray Joey and the Wolf.
"Are you afraid?" Gurus returned to the woman's side, squatted down, and gently scratched her face with his hand.
Margaret shook her head. "I'm more afraid of that man, and I'm more afraid of the way he's pressing down on me. If I were to face him again, I'd rather die now!"
"No, dear Margaret, I won't let you die." Gurus kissed her forehead. "I will take you out of here, out of the land of darkness. The world is so vast, and we are so young, and I promise that in the future you will only live happily and happily."
Margaret nodded and said, "I believe you, Gurus. Take me away, Margaret will always be yours!"
Gurus' eyes became scorching hot.
