Versatile Mage: The ancestor of the blood race, the blood demon lord

Chapter 171 Ancient Malice

"what happened?"

Mu Nujiao and Irene crawled out from the ruins of the collapsed city in a panic. When the sudden change occurred, they had no time to react at all.

The house collapsed in an instant, and a large amount of rubble hit their bodies.

If it weren't for the defensive magic tools on the two of them, they would have sensed that they were in danger and something was about to hurt them and activated automatically.

I'm afraid both of them would suffer serious injuries, be knocked unconscious by the rubble and buried under the rubble, and eventually die because they could not escape for a long time.

“Is this an earthquake?”

After Mu Nujiao climbed out of the ruins, she turned around and pulled Irene out, and looked at the surrounding city which had been completely turned into ruins.

Apart from the word earthquake, Mu Nujiao couldn't think of any words to describe the situation in front of her.

That’s right, an earthquake!
A huge earthquake!

An earthquake that devastated a large human city?

But there was one thing that Mu Nujiao didn’t quite understand. This place was clearly deep underground, so earthquakes shouldn’t have occurred.

What exactly happened to cause an earthquake of such a horrific scale?

"Earthquakes can actually happen in this place?"

Irene was freed and fell into a trance when she saw the scene in front of her.

After discovering that this place had a large amount of mineral resources, they put in a lot of effort and built a large human city and fortress here!
Although it looked like a city, Irene knew very well that it was a fortress specially used to store large amounts of supplies and defend against attacks from demons!
Excavation work here has been going on for more than two years.

During this period, such a thing has never happened. It is impossible for such a thing as earthquake to exist.

"Impossible. This fortress is obviously of the highest level. It is impossible for it to collapse because of an earthquake."

"It doesn't seem like a simple earthquake. It feels like a demonic attack."

During the years that Maki Nujiao was trained by Sakuya, her ability to survive in the wild has almost reached its limit.

The UK has invested a lot of manpower and material resources in the city where they are.

Even if there is an attack from a monarch-level demon, the barrier of this city can easily withstand it.

But this time, the source of the vibration came from deep underground.

According to the information that Mu Nujiao knew, the excavation and mining process over the years had been very smooth.

Although there are many passages leading to deeper underground, no one knows what is deep underground.

The British side also sent a forbidden spell wizard to go deep underground to investigate the situation.

The final conclusion is that human beings’ current capabilities are not enough to explore deep underground.

Combined with the shallow mineral veins and resources, they are enough for humans to use, and there is no need to continue studying things deep underground.

Humans are now digging and collecting on the surface, which is enough for Britain.

"Erin we're going to be in trouble."

This earthquake is definitely not a simple accident, they are probably in big trouble.

Such a big commotion is not something that any monarch can cause.

If we are unlucky, maybe an emperor has resurrected?

Mu Nujiao was quite clear about the difference between an emperor and a monarch. "Trouble?"

In Irene's opinion, this was just an accident, a natural disaster that they could not have predicted.

"Well, if my guess is correct, some terrifying existence deep underground has revived."

"Don't you feel that the surface temperature around you has risen significantly?"

After hearing what Mu Nujiao said, Irene realized that something was wrong.

Yes, this place was freezing cold when we were excavating before, but now it feels so hot that it seems like the body is burning.

This change seems to be unable to be explained clearly by the word "earthquake".

"Something has awakened deep underground?"

"Could it be the Flame Demon?"

As the future heir to Britain, Irene is qualified to know all the intelligence in Britain.

When Irene decided to follow Mu Nujiao and come to this place for training.

As the queen, Anna told Irene the information she had learned from Morgan. Irene also learned that this lost underground world once belonged to a demon empire.

"The Flame Demon Empire...are those Flame Demons going to revive?"

If this is really the case, and an ancient demon empire is revived, these humans will surely die.

It is necessary to get in touch with humans on the ground as soon as possible, and finally dispatch a large number of wizards to solve this problem.

The strongest people in charge of guarding this place are at most a few super-level and fully-cultivated mages.

The British forbidden spell wizards would not be sent to guard a place like a mine.

From building cities to mining, the strongest monsters that appeared in this place were only at the general level.

It was precisely because of the importance of this mine that Britain sent several super-class mages to guard it.

If you want to assign a Forbidden Spell Mage to guard an area, the strongest area is the area where a general-level demon appears.

Even if Britain had the ability to do so, it would not engage in such wasteful behavior.

The revival of the Fire Demon Empire was something no one could have predicted. They had to return to the ground quickly and contact the nearest communication station to have them send out a signal requesting support.

It only takes less than a day for the nearest forbidden spell wizards and super-class wizard group, as well as the military wizards from the nearest military zone, to arrive.

The revival of a demon empire is no joke.

A meeting must be held to call back all the forbidden spell mages outside the country, and several national defense mages must also be dispatched to deal with this problem.

There has never been a demon empire in their native Britain!
The monsters in the UK have almost all been dealt with so far, except for a number of siren tribes on the surrounding coastlines, and a certain number of monster tribes on the small islands and isles belonging to the UK.

The emergence of a demon empire is fully capable of destroying a human country.

Now, their homeland is facing a huge threat, and it is not impossible for them to mobilize the whole country to launch a war against this ancient empire that has just revived!
"There is a certain possibility. I will go and gather all the living people nearby. Irene, go find the highest person in charge of this fortress and ask him to pass the intelligence to the palace."

This is just a guess, and Mu Nujiao has no conclusive evidence.

But compared to this problem, she still had to save the people around her first. This natural disaster buried too many people under the rubble.
