    The Lion's Tooth Reef is famous for its sharp rocks that protrude like canine teeth. It is also the coastline at the southern end of Saraf, and is only a day's sail from Gesar City, the southernmost city of the Crimson Federation.  The scattered reefs create extremely complex currents and also harbor a large number of coral reefs and aquatic fish.  Only the most experienced sailors can fish here, although the risks are as great as the rewards.  “Captain, take a look.” The bosun of the Langou said to the frowning elderly man.  The captain was about 50 years old, with salt residue on his beard and a frown on his face.  In order to maximize profits, the Langou used a trawl net with the smallest mesh. Although this went against coastal tradition, no one was taking care of this dangerous water area.  The net was being pulled back, but what was inside shocked the sailors and made them whisper.  Dead fish, dead turtles, dead crabs, and even dead seabirds filled the nets.  The captain caught a spearfish that was half an arm long, but it was so light that it deflated when he pinched it with his hand.  "Did someone poison me? When I was a kid, I heard from merchants in the north that the dwarves sprinkled medicine into the river to kill the piranhas." "Have your brains been eaten by the piranhas? This is the sea! Let's poison this place."  What's the benefit?" The captain interrupted: "It can't be poison, even the water plants are dead. If it's not a natural disaster we're not going to fish anymore?" "This is an ominous sign, turn around immediately.  "Then the fare for this trip has been lost, captain, let's move to another area of ??water!" The captain was about to scold him, but suddenly his tongue froze, and air flowed out of his throat, making a hehe sound.  Looking over the side of the ship, he saw something terrifying like a nightmare. Those hollow blue eyes stared at him, leaving him speechless.  “Hula, the broken bone wings unfolded, and it took off.  He rushed straight towards the Langou.  “Ah!!!” …Three days later, Lesatos stared at the wreckage of the ship hanging on the rocks, as well as the soaked and swollen corpse.  A small amount of negative energy escapes in this sea area, killing all living things, including bacteria and phytoplankton, so no one is responsible for decomposing the corpses.  You can imagine the scene at that time. The humans on the boat looked at the swooping Dracolich and completely lost their minds.  Although there is no dragon power, the aura of fear is still as crushing as ever. Staring into eyes burning with the light of the soul, one will fall into a paralyzing gaze.  The only skeletal tail left was torn off the deck, and then the ship lost control and hit the rocks and disintegrated.  This was a deliberately left beacon. Lesatos looked at the source of the negative energy with a cold face.  He hastily ended the follow-up of the Golden Pickaxe. The human adventurer Lao Badong was brought to a safe area by a pre-set trigger teleportation that day, and he survived the disaster in a muddle-headed manner.  Afterwards, Lesatos gave him a sum of money that was enough for his retirement. The latter could not say he was grateful, but he patted his chest and promised not to die.  In fact, there is no secret to reveal, and no one will believe it if he tells it.  Go to Tia Forest to learn about Flamir’s disappearance. He found a magic mark there, pointing here.  Dogothos was a proud guest, and he disdained the game Lesatos had put down and started another one by himself.  And the invitation was very forceful, so Lesatos thought about it and had to go.  Seraph is his home ground. If he is timid, the disillusioned Shadowmen and Golem Masters may counterattack.  Moreover, the Demon Eye Supervisor is his personal servant and knows almost all the secrets.  Also, it is impossible to say that Lesatos has no feelings at all for the big eyeballs that like to twitch.  The negative energy pointed at a cave on the cliff, and Lesatos walked in.  The tunnel was damp and dark, and patches of dead saltwater moss covered the rock walls. Lesatos no longer needed to detect, the power deep in the cave was almost undisguised, silently sneering at the approaching intruders.  The passage seems endless and the scenery remains unchanged.  Lesatos stopped and said to the darkness: "I'm already impatient, and I don't even have basic hospitality skills?" The darkness responded with a rumbling sound.  The cave began to vibrate, and the sound changed from distant explosions to approaching thunder. The huge sound waves almost blew Lesatos away.  Something is approaching.  At the corner of the passage, a meat grinder-like mouth squeezed into view ferociously. Lesatos was very familiar with it. It was the Mercer Serpent!  There was no way to avoid the cave, and Lesatos had no intention of avoiding it. He just stood there calmly, as if an earthworm was rushing toward him like a roaring mountain and a tsunami.  The next moment, the huge mouth swallowed him up!  The fleeting image passes through the body, but it has no lethality.  Lesatos raised his hand to block the long beheading knife coming from the darkness. The tip of the knife was blocked by the light from the golden dragon mage's palm, preventing him from making any progress.  "Haha" The shadow people's deep laughter overshadowed the giant snake that had not completely disappeared. The figure instantly appeared on the other side, and dozens of knife shadows appeared, appearing one after another.  Lesatos is still standingThe body of the giant snake roared away, and he sneered and made a gesture.  The magical light waves spread, and the giant snakes disappeared wherever they went, and the smoke on the shadow people also faded, revealing a pale-skinned man in a dress.  He didn't have a curved guillotine in his hand, but a rapier.  Facing the assailant who showed a shocked expression, Lesatos said: "Don't show it to your eyes if you are so bad at illusion. Even though the Unfettered Shadow Citizen was defeated by me, her magical attainments are not what you can expect.  , the arrogant vampire." The vampire was angered by the contemptuous attitude. He had not been embarrassed in front of outsiders for hundreds of years.  He said sharply: "Don't forget what you are here to do. Hand over all the magic items you have on you, and come in with me honestly, otherwise your servant will die!" The two looked at each other for a moment, Lesatos faced  The vampire who stretched out his palm remained silent.  The latter understood this as a compromise, and the smile flew up on his face, but he immediately fell down.  Lesatos held his hand, and a special burning smell wafted out.  "Ah ah ah let go! Otherwise your servant will be dead! Ah ah" the vampire wailed in pain.  Lesatos smiled sweetly: "Do you think Dogossos would care if I crush an insect? He's still a brainless idiot. As long as I want to, nothing can stop me from killing you." The anger in the vampire's eyes was filled with fear.  Instead, he could see that Lesatos would really not care about Dracolich and kill him directly.  Don't think that the dead despise and care about death. It is because of the fear of death itself that he was reincarnated into a vampire.  "Sir! Please forgive my rudeness. I am leading the way for you!" Without letting go of his hand, the burning energy has entered the shoulder from the arm, heading towards the negative energy core.  Just when the vampire was desperate, Lesatos tore off his arm and threw it away like garbage.  "Lead the way." The vampire didn't dare to say nonsense anymore and led the way.  After walking for a while, it suddenly became clear that there was a stone maze under the dome more than ten meters high.  They stood at the entrance.  There was a stone slab and a staff on the ground.  He looked at the guide.  "What is this? The apprentice's trial?" "There are 8 creatures in the maze. Each of them masters a word, which corresponds to the 8 vacancies on the stone board. You need to use the [Ingest Soul] stored in the staff to extract the hidden content in the soul.  Words, however, can only be used 6 times. You must piece together enough words to move forward. If you use any ability other than the staff, you will not see your servant." Lesatos glared at the vampire.  He quickly added: "This is Lord Dogothos's request." After saying that, he turned into a bat and flew into the air.  Lesatos picked up the staff and the stone slab and stepped in with his head held high.  After walking a few steps, we came to a wide fork in the road, and a 3-meter-tall bugbear jumped towards us with a roar.  Lesatos pointed with his staff, and the bugbear's soul was immediately extracted, howling in pain.  Lesatos asked for the word easily, in goblin language.  Then he lifted the spell, but to his surprise, the abundant negative energy in the air mixed with his soul and poured into his body. The Bugbear stood up staggeringly, but it was already a zombie.  Turning into an undead does not mean there is a threat, so Lesatos kicked him away and continued walking.  Things like mazes meant nothing to him. The path he walked drew a route in his brain. Not only did it form a model of the maze, but the size and direction of the cave were also measured.  The following is a fire giant, and he got a giant language vocabulary.  Lesatos wondered what the significance of this trial was, until he saw the third creature, a female legion envoy, who was still a child, about fifteen or sixteen years older than a human.  She was bound in the magic matrix and could not speak, but her eyes looked at Lesato, pleading and angry.  “So that’s how it is, it’s really a disgusting method.  Lesatos can extract the souls of bugbears and fire giants without hesitation and ravage them. Dogothos wants to know if he can attack creatures from the good camp, especially the Archon Protoss who are close allies.  At the same time, it is also a test method to see Jinlong's bottom line.  The vampire in the sky is watching, if Lesatos is soft-hearted and refuses to let the angel turn into a zombie, and let her go.  The slate that was originally missing two words would be even more difficult to guess, and he would also lose the servant of the magic eye.  Lesatos stood quietly, walked around the envoy and continued walking.  The vampire let out a silent taunt.  Next, he killed a little devil and obtained the Infernal Language. The technique was also much heavier. He stepped on the little devil and crushed it hard.  The vampire looked forward to it even more, because next came the kind water fairy from the wild wildness.  Unexpectedly, Lesatos took a look and continued walking.  Finally, when he walked through the entire maze, there were only four words on the stone slab, half of which was missing.  What the vampire didn't know was that tens of thousands of words in 8 languages ????flowed through Jinlong's mind like a waterfall. He picked a few of them, then arranged and combined them thousands of times, and then filled the slate with a wave of his hand, and the vampire's eyes  Almost stared out?.  The words on the slate are: Extraordinary people set their own pace, mediocre people follow the rhythm of others.  This is an ancient Netherese proverb that expresses the uniqueness and excellence of the Grand Arcanist.  It is also a mockery of Lesatos, the Shadowmen, and the Golem Master.  Jinlong laid out the plan, and the two guys cooperated to come to the door.  Dogothos didn't bother to do this, so he made his own arrangements and let Lesatos follow his pace.  The stone slab opens a portal, and at the same time, the living creatures in the maze are sent back to their original planes.  Lesatos stepped in and saw a pair of broken keel wings.  The doomsday reptile Drogothos raised his head proudly and looked down at him.  (To be continued.)
