Chapter 631 The Blood Dynasty "Mongwin"

When we were kids, we were probably scared so much by all sorts of strange things that we couldn't sleep.

When Luluwo was a child, her grandmother would always tell her all sorts of scary stories to help her fall asleep, but every story terrified her so much that she couldn't sleep at all.

Sometimes, encountering a fierce-looking passerby on the road, an ugly monster on the mountain, or rustling bushes can conjure up a whole host of frightening things in her mind.

Even now, as an adult, she sometimes dreams about those things she experienced as a child, and then trembles for a while.

At this moment, her nightmares are likely to gain another terrifying member, and its name is—

The white mask's eyes!

Behind that smiling white mask lies a gaze containing the deepest killing intent of humanity, as if it wants to tear the person being looked at to pieces and condemn them to eternal damnation!

Imagine an HR professional in charge of hiring discovering that a newly hired employee throws excrement into the CEO's office on their very first day of work!

We have to kill him!

"How terrible!"

The teleportation effect provided by the Pureblood Knight Medal disappeared at this moment, and Luluwo's ​​scream echoed in this unfamiliar place.

Fudolin looked around, seemingly confused about the situation, and finally realized that Luluwo in front of her needed comforting more than the dark surroundings.

So she imitated Luluwo's ​​usual gesture and reached out to rub Luluwo's ​​head.

However, I used a little too much force and messed up the other person's neatly styled hair.

As expected, no woman could tolerate having her hair disheveled. Luluwo snapped out of her shock at the white mask's gaze and sighed with lingering fear.

"Oh no, what if I caused White Mask to lose contact with me? If something is missing later, I'll suffer a huge loss."

Looking at Luluwo, who was terrified one second and started weighing gains and losses the next, Fudolin's mouth gaped slightly as she marveled at how shrewd humans were, always thinking how amazing they seemed.

Seeing that her captain was engrossed in his calculations, she took a defensive stance, observing her surroundings and preparing for battle in case monsters suddenly appeared at any moment.

After all, she is now nominally a member of the Sky Conquest Team, so of course she needs to perform better and be more proactive.

A shrewd glint flashed in Fudoline's eyes.

She's not like Elsa when she first appeared—a girl with no emotions, no feelings, and no sense of direction. Although she acts like an innocent and naive girl, her way of thinking is that of a normal person.

She took a liking to Tammy at first sight, and now she clings tightly to Luluwo, completely unconcerned that he also intends to use her.

All of this was for a very important purpose, something very important to her!
"I'm still really worried," Luluwo sighed. "Oh well, what's done is done, we can only accept the status quo."

She looked up and saw Fudorin patrolling around. She immediately thought that the child was a promising talent who could see things clearly, and praised her verbally.

Fudorin, who was being patted on the head like a little darling, revealed a knowing smile.

"Where is this place?"

Luluwo looked around and saw that the sky was as dark as night, without a trace of sunlight.

All around were steep cliffs and scattered plants. Looking around, there were scattered bloodstains on the black rocks, and traces of blood splattered everywhere. Just looking at it, you could almost smell the stench of blood.

She wasn't sure if it was just her imagination, but she always felt that this place didn't seem like the surface of the earth, but rather like an underground landscape.

"No, how could that be? There can't be a night sky underground."

She shook her head and looked to the side, where traces of intelligent life finally appeared in the place they were facing.

Those are man-made steps. Above the steps are broken stone pillars and an empty plaza. Looking through the plaza, you can see more steps built along the contours of the cliff. If you follow those steps, you should be able to reach the top of the cliff.

Looking at the man-made building in front of her, Luluwo was surprised:

Could this be the Blood Dynasty?

She took a step forward, and a deep voice sounded in her ear as a line of magical text appeared before her eyes.

The Bloody Dynasty "Mongwin"

Sure enough! This is it!
Her previous frustration vanished, and Luluwo waved her fist and gave a small cheer, not daring to make too much noise for fear of attracting unknown monsters.

She had to be vigilant in an unfamiliar place, and even in her current happy state, she adhered to this principle.

"But then again..."

She looked at the solitary stone pillars standing before her, then at the plaza also built of stone, and from the crumbling walls connecting the pillars, she could discern a problem:
"This must be a building that hasn't been completed yet, right?" She walked away and looked again, but didn't see any workers.

How should I put it? Such architecture appears in a place named after a "dynasty".
It feels a bit low-class.

"Maybe there are more complete buildings behind it. I can't just look at one side of the story." Luluwo now has high expectations for the Blood Dynasty, a region with such an impressive-sounding name.

Moreover, as the most likely first adventurer to set foot in this area, she excitedly raised the photo stone and took pictures everywhere, even pulling Fudolin to take a few photos with her.

It was obvious that Fudolin's expressions and movements were stiff because it was her first time taking a group photo, so the result was not very good. However, when she took the "photos" stored in the photo stone and looked at them, she couldn't help but cover her mouth and laugh quietly.

"Berto and Tammy haven't arrived yet? That makes sense. It's best to leave them where they are. If they all come, it might interrupt any follow-up events."

Luluwo waved her hand, pointed to the only road in front of her, and said with great enthusiasm, "Let's go, let's begin our adventure!"

There was a blessing statue in the square, where the two rested for a while. After packing up their gear, they walked up the steps and got closer and closer to the top of the mountain. Luluwo was also looking forward to the scenery ahead.

The mountains here are a deep black, occasionally sprinkled with dried blood, and an ominous atmosphere pervades the air. However, the excitement of exploring new areas makes people overcome their sensitivity to the environment.

She didn't notice Fudoline's reaction behind her.

This child had clearly shown great anticipation for his surroundings both in Nymgford and Lake Lienia.

However, now that he was in the Blood Dynasty, he did not show any interest in his surroundings, and for some reason, he seemed quite indifferent.

It feels like I've lived in a similar environment for a long time, so I'm not interested in the Blood Dynasty now.

Finally, we reached the last step.

As Luluwo climbed the steps, she looked up at the view at the top with great anticipation!
It's still mountains and rocks.

Luluwo's ​​smile gradually faded.

Then her expression returned to normal.

I wasn't impressed at all!
"Give me back my expectations!"

Actually, the scenery here isn't that bad.

In this place, which is more like a collection of steep boulders than a mountain, you can see a relatively wide flat area after climbing the last step.

Although the ground was still stone, many plants had grown, adding vitality to the place. Standing in the direction where Luluvo was, you could see several different paths to take, each one exuding attraction. Some even had glowing spots placed there, as if they were telling adventurers, "Come on over!"

On the side of the plain, the terrain dips slightly downwards, forming a "plain" with low-lying areas everywhere.

There, there lies a boundless lake of blood.

It was a lake of real blood, as could be seen from Fudolin's increasingly contorted brows.

The blood lake rippled as if it were alive, and the surrounding rocks were stained with a deep crimson. The nearby plants, having drunk their fill of blood, not only matched the color of the blood lake but also looked bizarre, as if demons and monsters were performing a terrifying ritual around the blood.

A strange and terrifying atmosphere permeated the air, and the entire Blood Dynasty was shrouded in the smell of blood.

In Luluvo's imagination, the Blood Dynasty should have been a place filled with magnificent buildings, no less imposing than Anor Londo. So it's not hard to understand why she felt a sense of disparity upon seeing these sights.

However, from another perspective, the Blood Dynasty has its own unique tone, a straightforward abnormality that even Anor Londo has never possessed.

Blood can alert living organisms; large amounts of blood indicate danger, and blood in such large quantities that it forms a lake is a different story.
It's terrifying just to look at it.

Coupled with the seemingly endless nights and the silence so profound that not even the wind could be heard, a silent terror quickly arose in the adventurers' hearts.

"Thinking about it this way, it's actually quite interesting."

Luluwo patted her chest and said this to herself.

There was a bright light emanating from the Blood Lake, clearly indicating something was there, but how could there be no danger where there was light?

Instead of going that way, she cautiously headed towards the plains that were completely opposite to the direction of the Blood Lake, because she saw familiar creatures there.

They're the sons of platinum; these chubby guys are kind of cute after a while.

Seeing the Platinum Child in an unfamiliar place gave her a sense of familiarity, but for some reason, the Platinum Child was all red, as if it had been soaked in pigment.

It doesn't matter, just consider it the off-color platinum child.

Lulu walked over confidently; she was going to give it a try.

The Platinum Son turned around and stared at her when he heard the noise, but surprisingly did not make an attack move immediately.

Could it really be possible?
A glimmer of hope appeared in Luluwo's ​​heart, and she pulled something out of her pocket—the Pureblood Knight Medal.

She cleared her throat, her voice as stern and rigid as a female knight's as she addressed the Platinum Son:

"I am Lord Monger's knight, and I have some questions for you!"
