Global Survival: Infinite Tower Defense

Chapter 134 Dragon Skeleton
Following the maid, Lin selected a few people to walk onto the plank road, take the ladder to heaven, cross the suspended bridges, and travel on the winding mountain road.

The mountain road is tortuous, and after several turns, it suddenly becomes clear.

Deep in the heights of the mountain, there is a main castle.

The huge and magnificent silver castle is located on the top of the deep mountain. On the two sides of the castle, there are two jade sculptures over [-] meters high.

These two tall sculptures are lifelike. The sculptures look like a man and a woman. These two sculptures have a very obvious characteristic.

naked.

Not a single piece of clothing covering the body.

Along the way, Lin Xuan and the others have seen many hotly dressed and beautiful women enjoying the cool and playing in various places among the mountains. Of course, there are many men among them.

The style of these women is very bold. When they saw Lin Xuan and the others, they didn't hide the desire in their eyes at all. They just came up with a naked provocation.

Lao Fang kept a straight face all the way, while Lin Xuan covered Zhan Xingtong's eyes all the way, but after seeing too much, he also gave up.

Because everything here exudes a sense of extravagance, whether it is the people here or the scenery here.

The two huge male and female sculptures are already obvious, and among the stone walls and mountains here, there are many pictures like erotic pictures. Lin Xuan can't make Zhan Xingtong keep his eyes closed, can he?
Everything here is too unsuitable for children, there is always a sense of sight of visiting a kiln.

I regret bringing him here.

Several people came to the castle, and the maid took them into the castle.

The painting style in the castle is naturally extremely absurd.

Under the exhausted all gorgeous appearance is a piece of the most primitive desire, it is not an exaggeration to say that it is a forest of wine and meat.

During the broad daylight, several couples of men and women drank together in this majestic castle hall, and the extravagant sounds were unbearable to the ear.

The maid was naturally used to this kind of scene, without any surprise, she still smiled and led Lin Xuan and the others through the hall full of absurd writing, to the back garden behind the castle.

In the huge garden, from time to time, there are servants and servants walking back and forth with plates, all of which are delicious food and wine.

As long as people who come here, as long as they are invited guests, they can enjoy these food and wine at any time, perhaps, even these servants can also become objects of enjoyment.

"What the hell is this place?" Lao Fang couldn't help it.

"I also... didn't expect it at all." Lin Xuan didn't know how to comment.

Who would have thought [Mason Castle] would be such a place?

The garden is full of spring colors.

After walking around in the back garden for a few times, I came under a huge arch. After passing the arch, there was a cliff.

On this cliff, one can see a narrow gravel road extending straight out from the sky, and at the end, there is a large white pavilion.

"Go, the master is already waiting for you there." When she got here, the maid stopped.

"Thank you."

Lin selected a few people and walked on this gravel road.

Under the gravel road, there is a vast black mist, and it is impossible to see what is going on below.

The road is not long, about 200 meters.

After a while, we arrived at the entrance of the white pavilion.

As soon as I arrived, I saw a man kneeling outside the long pavilion, kowtowing to the floor, and kept saying, "Lord Xianglun, I really don't dare, please give me a chance!"

Inside the pavilion, a man with long blond hair was lying on a shaker made of vines hanging from the top of the pavilion, with his eyes closed, enjoying the massage service of two very beautiful women beside him.

"I'll give you a chance, you can choose to jump off by yourself." The blond man's voice was a little hoarse.

"No, Mr. Xianglun, I..."

"You're blocking my guests, you know?" The blond man opened his eyes and stared at the kowtowing man.

"I was wrong, I get out of the way, I get out of the way." The man hurriedly rolled aside.

"Jump down, this is the second time I've said it, and it's the last kindness I'll give you." The blond man remained expressionless.

The man kneeling and kowtowing shook violently.

He stood up slowly, with despair written all over his face.

At the same time, the desire to plead has also been lost.

Turning around, he grabbed the guardrail of the pavilion with trembling hands, and then, with a loud roar, he climbed over the guardrail and jumped into the dark mist below.

The black mist surged and swallowed the man instantly.

After a moment, it was quiet.

Lin Xuan glanced at the gradually calming black mist.

At that moment, the moment the man jumped down, Lin Xuan could feel a powerful force erupting from the black mist. This force killed the man directly, leaving no ashes behind.

"Welcome my guests to [Mason Castle], everyone, please sit down."

"I am the current Patriarch of [Mason Castle], Xianglun Mason, you also call me the Duke of Xianglun." The blond man stretched his waist and sat up.

Lin Xuan and the others sat down on the seats that had been prepared in the pavilion.

"It's a bit early for you guys to come. I asked Lauren to invite you to the dinner, but it's still some time before night." Duke Xianglun looked at Lin Xuan and the others and smiled.

This is a very handsome man, with the charm of a mature man, and his smile is charming.

Looks like he's in his early 30s.

"This is the first time I'm here, I don't know if there will be any obstacles on the way. After all, this is the war-torn north, so I set off early to avoid being late. We are punctual." Lin Xuan made an excuse casually.

"Come early, because you want to see your people? Don't worry, they are doing well now, and I will never treat my guests badly."

"The captured one is also called a guest?"

"Oh, you misunderstood. We invited them to come here. There are no prisoners, no captives, and no prisoners here."

"[Mason Castle] has a written rule that visitors are guests. Outsiders who come to our place have never had an identity other than guests." Duke Xianglun said indifferently.

"What about the person who jumped from here just now?" Lin Xuan asked.

"He violated our rules here, so this is his fate. Besides, he is not a guest, he is a servant of our Mason family."

"Are you curious about what mistake he made? He is a person in charge I arranged at [Anze Canyon]. He can be regarded as a businessman, but he swallowed my things privately, so I punished him. This Very reasonable, right?" Duke Xianglun said.

"Your family affairs, as outsiders, it's not easy for us to comment."

"I want to meet my people." Lin Xuan didn't hesitate, and directly stated his purpose.

"Okay, you three, go two, you stay and chat with me." Duke Xianglun pointed at Lin Xuan.

"Old Fang, Xingtong, you go." Lin Xuan said.

"Take them there." Duke Xianglun said to the woman beside him.

"Yes, Lord Duke."

"Lin Xuan, I think it's better if we don't separate easily." Lao Fang was a little wary.

"No, you and Xingtong can go at ease." Lin Xuan waved his hand.

This is [Mason Castle], which is already their territory. This time, Lin Xuan only brought Lao Fang and Zhan Xingtong with him. If the people in [Mason Castle] have any unfavorable ideas for Lin Xuan , it was too late to deal with it.

It doesn't matter if the three are separated or not.

They come, the security.

The two women took Lao Fang and Xingtong away.

"It's been a long time since I saw a strange guest. This is really exciting. After the world has become like this, it is much more interesting."

"Take a sip?" Duke Xianglun stood up, picked up two wine glasses, and sat next to Lin Xuan.

"Whatever." Lin Xuan took the wine glass.

"Aren't you afraid that I will poison you?" Duke Xianglun asked with a smile.

"If you arrested my people and forced me to come here again just to poison me, then I can only say that I think too highly of you." Lin Xuan drank the wine in his glass in one gulp.

Good wine.

Another glass.

"Then what do you think I came here for?" Duke Xiang Lun asked calmly.

"At least it's not to poison me." Lin Xuan replied.

"I can't poison you, can I? The title [Hundred Poisons Don't Invade] really gives you the confidence to drink my wine." Duke Xianglun laughed.

Lin Xuan paused slightly for pouring the wine.

That's right, Lin Xuan does have the title of [Hundred Poisons Invulnerable], which was obtained by opening a box on the [Following Light] system.

But how could this person know?
"Don't ask me how I know, if you do, then you will underestimate me."

"It's rare to meet a guest who has never been to [Mason Castle]. You must be full of curiosity about everything here, right?"

"Whatever you want to ask, you can ask now. You ask one, I ask one, it's fair, how about it?" Duke Xianglun said.

"Okay." Lin Xuan nodded.

"You are a guest, you go first."

"Why do you call yourself the Duke?" Lin Xuan asked the first question.

"This is not a self-proclaimed title, but a hereditary title of the family. Every head of our Mason family will inherit the title of duke, but this title has already existed in name only."

"It doesn't mean anything. Just think of it as a nickname. I quite like it when others call me that." Duke Xianglun replied.

"Hereditary? Did you ever belong to a certain empire? Is it the title given to you by the emperor?" Lin Xuan then asked.

"That's the second question."

"Okay, then you ask."

"Have you ever had a relationship beyond friendship with Edamino and that woman named Zhang Ruoxi?" Lin Xuan was stunned by Duke Xianglun's first question.

"What kind of problem is this?" Lin Xuan was stunned.

"A friend of mine should be very concerned about this issue, but she was too embarrassed to ask, so I asked it for her."

"Don't ask who this friend of mine is, I won't tell you." Duke Xianglun said.

"No." Lin Xuan answered honestly.

"Hey, young man, you have good determination. Or maybe you don't have the experience to deal with the problem of two women coexisting? You can ask me for advice on this, and I will give you some advice. I guarantee it will work." Duke Xianglun showed his face. A smile that every man knows.

"No need, it's your turn to answer the question." Lin Xuan didn't want to dwell on this matter.

"What a disappointment, I want to tell you about my expertise." Duke Xianglun's interest suddenly faded.

Looking at him like this, his specialty is flirting with girls and he is a master of time management.

"In the world of Star Sea, there used to be four great empires. The Beiluo Empire in the north, the Winters Empire in the south, the Furious Winter Empire hidden in the west, and the ancient Shanna Kingdom in the eastern sea."

"The disputes between the four empires have never stopped. Everyone wants to completely occupy this Star Sea Continent, sweep across Liuhe, annex the Eight Wastelands, and cannibalize other empires. Therefore, in the Star Sea World, war is the norm. "

"Our Mason family, because of the ancestral precepts, does not allow anyone in the family to participate in the hegemony between these empires, so the war has never spread to [Mason Castle]."

"Each of these four empires needs us to provide them with the [Old Crystal], which is the most important strategic material for them. This has led to the fact that although the Mason family did not directly participate in the dispute, it also has a lot to do with this war. Inextricably linked."

"They had to beg us and please us, so the desire for power grew in their hearts, and slowly our people began to get involved in the political power of the four empires."

"The emperor of the Winters Empire is the most knowledgeable person. He announced to the world that he gave the then head of the Mason family the title of duke."

"Seeing this, the other three major empires followed suit and announced that our Patriarch at that time became the Duke of their empire, and the title of this Duke is hereditary. Every Mason Patriarch will be awarded this title in the future."

"You can understand it as that this title is just a way for the four empires to curry favor with us, and it also symbolizes that our Mason family officially participates in the disputes between the four great empires of the star sea world."

"That's how the title of duke came about." Duke Xianglun said eloquently.

"I'm curious, why do they respect your Mason family so much? Since you have a lot of [Old Crystals], why doesn't an empire dare to directly launch a war against you to plunder resources?" Lin Xuan didn't understand this question.

"You fouled again, it's time for me to ask. Don't worry, time is still long." Duke Xianglun smiled.

"Then you ask."

"Is the wine good?"

"not bad."

"Okay, I'm done asking."

"What?" Lin Xuan wondered if he heard it wrong.

"I said I'm done asking, and next, I'll answer your question."

"You are asking why no empire has ever launched a war against us, right? Why do they want to please us instead of killing us directly."

"I think you should have thought about this question. You have the answer. Your answer is that the Mason family is so powerful that the four empires dare not do anything to us, so they can only respect us."

"In that case, why doesn't our Mason Empire seek hegemony? As I said just now, we have the precepts of our ancestors and cannot participate in these disputes."

"Then you have to ask again, what kind of bullshit ancestral teaching is this? Why is there such a nonsense ancestral teaching? And why do descendants of the Mason family have to abide by it for generations?"

"Isn't there such a patriarch who violated the ancestral precepts?"

"Well, there really isn't one. Because no one wants to die." Duke Xianglun said slowly.

"Want to die? What do you mean?" Lin Xuan asked.

"You're in a hurry again, it's time for me to ask."

"You ask."

“Do you think the scenery at [Maison Castle] is beautiful?”

"Brother, what's the point of asking me these questions?" Lin Xuan couldn't take it anymore.

How boring does this guy have to be to come up with all these tricks?

"Of course it makes sense. As I said, one person asks one question and answers alternately. This is the rule, and I hate people who violate the rules very much. Of course I have to set an example." Duke Xianglun said confidently.

"It's so beautiful." Lin Xuan replied helplessly.

"Haha, everyone who comes here says so, everyone says [Mason Castle] is a paradise in the Star Sea World."

"Oh, it's time for me to answer. Have you ever heard of the legend of the evil dragon?"

"The legend of the evil dragon? No."

"Legends say that dragons in the world of Xinghai are greedy for money. They like wealth, jewelry, and all glittering bricks and stones."

"Dragon will collect the wealth that belongs to them. They don't know how to restrain themselves, and they don't know how to be satisfied. They will only blindly pursue more jewels. The desire for treasure is like a bottomless pit that can't be filled."

"Shortly after the birth of this world, there was such a dragon who accidentally obtained a large amount of treasure. It was ecstatic and took it as its own."

"Do you believe that there is such a hidden rule between existence and heaven and earth in this world. This rule is that from the moment you are born, the value of wealth you can obtain in this life is already fixed."

"How much wealth you can get in this life is already a fixed number."

"For example, for me, I can only get 100 gold coins in this life. If I work hard and earn the wealth I should get with my own hands, until I die, I will get a total of 100 gold coins. I paid [-] gold coins, which is what I deserve."

"If I'm lazy, then the wealth value I can earn by the end of my life will not be 100, it will be less than this number, and this is what I 'deserve'."

"But if I'm not satisfied with this little money, and I want to get more, then I'm bound to do some dirty and shameless things."

"Money, more, I can earn more than 100 gold coins in my life, but at the same time, I have to pay the price. The more I get, the more I pay, and in the end, I may pay an unimaginable price."

"What I want to say is that what you should take is yours, and what you shouldn't take is yours. If you touch it, then you will definitely be punished by the rules!"

"If that dragon is not too greedy for these wealth and only takes part of it instead of holding on to the wealth, then it will not be cursed by the ancient gods, making it unable to leave the treasure that makes it coveted for the rest of its life place."

"The curse of the ancient gods is a curse that cannot be broken in the star sea world. That dragon has been guarding the pile of wealth. It cannot leave. Once it leaves, it will be punished by the ancient gods and be wiped out."

"Have you ever seen a desert?" Duke Xianglun changed the topic.

"I've seen it." Lin Xuan said.

"Then can you imagine that the sand in the entire desert is made of gold?"

"This……"

"Can't imagine? Then see it with your own eyes." Duke Xianglun waved his hand.

The huge black mist under the gazebo slowly dissipated.

The black mist dissipated, replaced by a large area of ​​dazzling sharp edges.

Below this is a huge deep valley, and just under this valley, there are countless treasures!

Gold, masonry, and all kinds of glittering jewels are piled together to form a "golden sea" that can't be seen at a glance!
Too much!
Can't imagine this scene?
Then imagine a desert.

The light emitted by these wealth is like a surging starlight, not only brilliant, but also extremely attractive.

In addition to these treasures, there are also countless [old crystals].

None of this surprised Lin Xuan the most.

What surprised Lin Xuan the most was that there were huge corpses one after another on these treasures!

What kind of corpse is that?
It's a dragon.

It's the skeleton of a dragon!
Creatures like dragons are undoubtedly the strongest species on the surface of the earth. Even if it dies and becomes a dragon skeleton, the huge skeleton and hideous dragon head skeleton will still bring a kind of psychological coercion to people!
And here, there is more than one dragon skeleton!
"You...are a dragon?" Lin Xuan looked at Duke Xianglun in disbelief.

It was so sudden, Lin Xuan hadn't thought of this at all.

It was just a good time to chat for a few days, why did you suddenly engage in such a big bomb?
Showdown?
The Mason family is actually a dragon family?

"Look at that, the biggest skeleton, already has the color of gold and silver in the bone, it's really the color carved into the bone, a veritable money-greedy dragon."

"It's called Dragon Tan Mason, the ancestor of the Mason family, a complete... bastard!" Duke Xianglun looked at the dragon skeleton, his eyes filled with disgust.

"But he...is your ancestor." Lin Xuan said.

It's... a bit like a curse.

"Ancestor? Hehe." Duke Xianglun sneered.

"It's time for me to ask questions." Duke Xianglun continued.

"Okay." Lin Xuan was already prepared.

"If you were allowed to stay in this place for the rest of your life, would you be willing?" Duke Xianglun asked.

"This... I don't think I would like it." Lin Xuan replied.

"Along the way, the women you see here are all beauties. Let me ask you, you also said that the wine here is good, the scenery is beautiful, and there is endless wealth. Why don't you want to stay here?"

This reminded Lin Xuan of the poem that everyone can recite.

Life is precious, love is higher.

If it is free, both can be thrown away.

Lin Xuan now knew why the Duke of Xianglun would ask those idiot-like questions.

"In addition to inheriting this useless title of duke, the Mason family has also inherited the curse of this ancient god for generations. Although this curse cannot kill us, it makes our lives worse than death."

"Dragon Tan Mason really deserves to die! He deserves to die alone, but he is unwilling. He used those people who were looking for wealth to build a dragon city, and has since become the king of this dragon city."

"Later, the place was renamed [Mason Castle]. He multiplied and killed his offspring!"

"You know? Dragons have a very long life. We have to stay here all our lives. This is a cage covered with gorgeous clothes."

"Every member of the Mason family who died will be buried here. They have never left here in their entire lives, and they have never seen other scenery in this world until their death."

"Now you know why we can't dominate, and you also know why the four great empires dare not come and kill us."

"The majesty of the dragon is not something they can provoke! Even if people from the four great empires fight together, I can make them return home!" Duke Xianglun's domineering air leaked out.

A dragon's aura spurted out from his body, and Lin Xuan, standing next to him, felt an unprecedented pressure!
That's more terrifying than the pressure brought by Gallon!
"So, don't be surprised when you see everything here. Do you think our life is extravagant and absurd?"

"If we don't get drunk, what else can we do? However, we can't say that completely. We will still control the wars of the four empires, mess up the situation, control the overall situation, and take pleasure in it."

"They need us, and we need them too. They will bring us good wine, food and beautiful women, and we will give them the strategic materials they need."

"Whoever wins or loses, we don't care. Whoever gets the royal power and who wins the throne has nothing to do with us."

"Royal power and wealth are not worth a sip of dirty wine in a cup." Duke Xianglun laughed.

It's just this smile, full of helplessness and loneliness.

"By the way, just now you said that there are four great empires, and this does not include the Vonke Empire. I have heard some stories about the Vonke Empire. It is said that their strength was not as good as that of the Winters family."

"Does it mean that the later Winters Empire was killed and replaced by the Vonke family?" Lin Xuan asked.

"That's right. The Wizarding Empire of Winters has become history. It was replaced by the Vonke family, which was originally part of the Winters Empire. The Winters Empire was completely destroyed. The Wizarding Empire came to an end, and the Vonke Empire rose." Township The duke replied.

"why?"

"Change of hegemony, division of empires, that is normal, the highest throne has always been occupied by the capable, there is no reason for that." Duke Xianglun said.

"Is there no one from your Mason family involved in this?"

"I said I didn't interfere, and you wouldn't believe it. I can only tell you that the existence of our Mason family is indeed very important to the four empires, and they are also in awe of us."

"But we can't leave here after all. If the majesty is limited, the effect will be greatly reduced. We have a deep influence on the four empires, but it is not so deep that we can completely control their decline and rise. "

"Would he do the same if I asked the emperors of the four great empires to abdicate? So, do you understand?" Duke Xianglun laughed.

"I understand what you mean. So, what do you think of this world? This catastrophic world has similarities and differences with the star sea world you originally lived in."

"I think there are no human beings in the original Xinghai world?" Lin Xuan asked.

"The advent of this cataclysmic world is indeed unimaginable. I don't know why the world we live in has become like this, but you are wrong about one thing."

"In our original Xinghai world, there are human beings." Duke Xianglun said.

"Are there human beings?" In fact, Lin Xuan had already thought about this question.

There should be humans in Star Sea World, because the cataclysmic forces obviously know that humans exist.

I asked this intentionally, because I wanted to get some deeds about human beings from Duke Xianglun.

As a Dragon Clan in Star Sea World, Duke Xianglun must know a lot.
