Volume 4: The Cataclysm Chapter 197 Dark Shadow

The pitch-black river water looks like dark ink, blending perfectly with the underground space that never sees day.

In the Underdark, although the other underground rivers are also cold and dark, there are some luminous aquatic plants that serve as a means of lighting.

But here, all the light seemed to be swallowed up.

The true power of [Dark Vision] can only be fully demonstrated in places like this.

Marvin was like a fish in water on the dark river, and they steered a small boat downstream.

Jessica is an apocalypse sorcerer, so she can naturally adjust her perception and use other methods to get information about the surrounding situation. However, due to the special situation of the Abyss River, she is definitely not as good as Marvin in terms of vision.

At the same time, their bodies were filled with an unprecedented feeling.

This feeling made Jessica feel very depressed. In fact, every strong person who came to this place would feel sincerely depressed.

Depression comes from pressure.

This is the very bottom of the plane, under invisible elemental pressure - if it were a civilian, it would be impossible to reach such a deep place, and the most common result would be fainting on the way down.

Although this kind of pressure cannot cause harm to the legendary strongmen, it will also cause them to feel uneasy and anxious.

Plus, this place is so quiet.

Apart from the crazy sound of flowing water, all other sounds seemed to be swallowed up by the devil in the dark.

Time seemed to have lost its meaning. They could only feel the water and the air. Everything else was unchanging darkness.

Fortunately, both of them are extremely determined people, otherwise it would be easy to have hallucinations in this situation.

This was already the second day of their journey to the Yuandi River.

Under Marvin's guidance, the two of them successfully penetrated the entire Underdark and arrived at the extreme of the plane - the Abyss River.

The river at the bottom of the abyss flows very fast. According to Marvin's estimation, they will reach the realm of the underground gods and monsters in half a day at most.

As long as you cross that area, the Andes Mountains will be within reach.

For more than a whole day, the two of them only communicated with each other occasionally, and most of the time was spent in silence.

But even so, their brains are still very clear.

Marvin sat at the front of the boat, staring coldly at the darkness in the distance.

His mind was clearer than ever. In this desolate land where no one had ever set foot, it stood to reason that they would not encounter any other threats that they could not deal with except for the underground monsters.

But for some reason, he had a vague sense of foreboding in his mind.

It was like a jumping little animal, constantly stimulating his eardrums.

This is a dangerous sign.

"Danger is normal, but what's the matter with this sign?"

The gift of wisdom not only made Marvin's thinking clearer than ever before, but also gave him a vague ability to predict the future.

He vaguely sensed that this danger came from beyond the known.

This made him very confused. Besides what he knew, could there be something more terrifying than the underground monster in this place?

Theoretically, this is almost impossible.

But Marvin was not careless.

He knew that his arrival had changed the world to a great extent!

If the Everfrost Spring can erupt prematurely, then it seems not impossible for the underground gods and monsters to wake up early and return to their peak state.

All in all, it's always a good idea to be well prepared.

…

In the dark night, Jessica's faint voice suddenly came: "I hate the dark."

Marvin laughed dumbly: "Most people are like this."

"The night took away our parents," Jessica said calmly, "so I hate it a little more than most people."

Marvin's mood sank slightly .

This was the first time he heard Jessica tell her own story.

Among the three sisters of destiny , Jessica, as the eldest, is definitely the most powerful one.

Although she is extremely beautiful, in fact, few people regard her as a woman.

When a strong person becomes strong enough, she becomes a label or halo in the eyes of others.

They worship her or fear her or hate her, but no one knows the real her.

After all, even if you count carefully, Jessica should only be a girl around twenty years old now.

It was this girl who almost single-handedly held up the sky in the southwest of the continent in this terrifying era. Marvin always had a faint awe of Jessica.

But when she said this, the awe suddenly disappeared.

What replaced it was an indescribable heartache.

As an experienced player with rich gaming experience, Marvin searched his memory but could not find any information about the life experiences of the three sisters of destiny!

The three of them seemed to have suddenly jumped out of a stone pit in the rocky mountain. They were so pure and elegant, and out of this world.

The word "parents" seems to not exist to them.

People naturally believe this, as for the Apocalypse Warlocks...if we have to say that they have parents, it should be this plane, right?

This is most people's speculation.

However, this is not the case.

…

"When they died, Luo Rui had just been born. That was the most terrible year of the natural disaster. Kate was almost secretly killed by someone by the river..."

Jessica's voice was smooth and calm, as if she was narrating something that had nothing to do with her.

But Marvin heard a hint of sadness and melancholy in her seemingly calm tone.

No matter how strong a girl is, she is still a girl after all.

So he gently placed his hand on the back of her hand.

It's cold.

This is not normal!

Marvin was shocked.

However, before he could make any move, Jessica suddenly raised her head and looked at Marvin intently: "Do you know?"

"My parents died on a dark night..."

Marvin frowned slightly.

There was a sense of instability in the air, and he suddenly said, "Don't say anything yet..."

Who knew Jessica interrupted him decisively: “Do you want to know how they died?”
