Ke-style law enforcement officers

Chapter 975 The Road of Bones
……

The fire of sin burned away all the obstacles above the Heavenly Waterfall.

They didn't even bother to look at what kind of world this ancient spider god was trying to build; they simply attacked it with swords and axes, and burned it with fire, destroying it completely.

It seems that this is the inherent charisma of the Shadow, which has nothing to do with so-called power, order, or soul. He can easily transform people into a fearless "mad" mode.

Because there is no so-called "god" in him that is insurmountable or blasphemous.

If something is written into order and rules, preventing subordinates from overstepping their bounds, then the most direct method is to burn those rules and order as well.

...

Joan Byrne is the most prominent example.

She is the kind of person who was thoroughly cultivated by the temple. The blade of law is meant to uphold the law, that is, the established order and rules.

However, during that great battle in the Golden Kingdom, she learned to defy the will of those in power.

Even if it is against one of the wills of the Golden Tree itself.

...

"I still don't seem to have found any signs of living things."

Although she felt it wasn't right to directly discourage Milo, Mabel still had to tell the truth.

After destroying the spider web left by the Spider God, her spiritual vision still found no signs of life above the Heavenly Waterfall.

"Then we'll have to look for dead people."

Milo was actually aware of the situation.

If Freya were safely in some corner of Skyfall, then I would have suddenly had that series of terrible hallucinations a few days ago.

Furthermore, Emma's prophetic message said—bring the little dragon back.

She was telling Milo a message in a very subtle way.

You can bring the dead back, can't you?

...

The entire waterfall is paved with bones.

Some of these are the skeletons of the Hittites, who are generally much taller than ordinary humans, with a physique similar to that of Milo and Freya when they stood together.

But after traveling a certain distance, the number of Greek skeletons began to decrease, and gradually only the skeletons of another unknown race could be seen.

"The ancient dragons that died chose many different races throughout history, and they each inherited a part of the ancient dragon's bloodline, but even so, they were all annihilated on the road to conquering the Skyfall generation after generation."

Mabel, after all, was an old man who had lived for countless years and was very knowledgeable.

Judging from the skeletons scattered across the waterfall, the Hiren people were probably one of the weaker races among those who inherited the bloodline of the ancient dragons.

Their remains covered a distance of less than 100 meters.

...

Mabel picked up a finger bone from the ground and examined it closely:
“The Spider Web World created by the Spider God Nakya may actually exist. Those who conquered the Skyfall did not destroy the Spider Web World directly from the outside like you did. They chose to enter the Spider Web World and find a way out under Nakya’s rules. Although it is only a hundred meters long here, they may have endured many years of suffering in the Spider Web World.”

"Then wouldn't I just kill everyone in the Spider Web World?" Milo frowned.

But Mabel casually tossed the finger bone in her hand aside:

"No, from the moment they entered the Spider Web world, they were already skeletons."

"Let's go..."

Further on, the number of skeletons on the ground gradually decreased.

However, these are all very rare remains of special races. Some of them are even unidentifiable to Mabel, and they are basically no longer whole, leaving only fragmented and broken bone pieces, making it almost impossible to identify their original species.

“You know, the further forward you go, the stronger you become,” Mabel analyzed.
"No matter how powerful the ancient dragon was, it died not long after falling into the Dream Realm. Its remaining bloodline searched for a successor through its own consciousness. That bloodline was indeed powerful, but it was still limited." "By the time of the Xiren, it is very likely that this is the last bloodline. Because of the rarity of the bloodline, the Xiren have become the weakest race among all the inheritors of the ancient dragon's blood. Therefore, on the Heavenly Waterfall, they can only be laid at the very bottom. There, they cannot even see the remains of the true progenitor dragon, let alone their home planet, the Stars."

...

According to Mabel, it was indeed a sad and long story.

But Milo didn't give any feedback, just kept his head down and kept moving forward.

He walked a little faster than before.

Although it appears to be just walking, all three are superiors, and unless they deliberately stop, their speed is extremely fast.

But now even Byrne is finding it difficult to keep up with Milo's pace...

...

The two people behind him could sense the change in Milo's emotions.

This is a trait that cannot be seen in any other Shadow-level or higher high-ranking individual.

He is a person of flesh and blood.

He also feels uneasy about the people he cares about.

As he drew closer to the top of the waterfall, his anxiety intensified, for he was now very close to the truth.

And as this process progresses, behind the unease, a strong killing intent is brewing.

This was something that Byrne and Mabel behind them could both sense.

Yes, he revealed his murderous intent towards the ancient beings on their territory, even before the final truth was clear.

...

……

The number of skeletons gradually decreased.

Often, one has to travel hundreds or even thousands of meters to find one or two pieces of dried bone, and complete skeletons no longer appear.

Upon reaching this area, Milo deliberately slowed down.

We're not far from the top of the waterfall now; the snow has turned into rock-solid frost, and the starry sky is beginning to appear on the horizon.

Slowing down was to avoid missing any bones along the way.

While he held onto hope, he was also prepared for the worst. If Emma meant bringing Freya's remains back when she said to bring the little dragon back, Milo felt that all the bones should be brought back intact, and not a single one should be left behind.

...

At the top of the Heavenly Waterfall.

This is a vast plain stretching across the mountaintop, close to outer space.

Stars and frost have completely replaced the snow and ice deep in the Vomiadres Mountains, becoming the dominant theme of the environment here.

In the very center of this magical plain, a section of an ancient dragon's spine remains.

This spine is about as wide as the abyss rift in the eastern forbidden zone of the Eternal Kingdom, like a trench embedded in the earth's surface.

...

Faced with such a magnificent scene, Mabel and Byrne stared at it for a long time, speechless.

However, Milo didn't even glance at the spine of the progenitor dragon.

He found a broken horn about two fingers wide on the ground.
