Chapter 904 The Will

“Huh?” Gerald and the other two rushed over.

Carolyn stood not far away. In front of her, there was something like an iron shelf, but it was already

rusty. The middle part was corroded, revealing a dark hole!

With the lights turned on, one could see that there was a flight of stairs inside the hole, leading straight

down

to the bottom.

“Do you want to go down and have a look?” Carolyn asked eagerly.

There was some hesitation on Anabel’s face. She was afraid that there would be some kind of beast

inside.

Gerald said, “Well, it’s going to be a long night. Why don’t we go down and have a look? What if there

are some secrets or if there are a lot of treasures hidden underneath, such as Divine Weapons or

something?”

Anabel glanced at Gerald. Both Gerald and Carolyn were Flame Decayers, and they were quite

powerful. They

should not be in danger.

She nodded and said, “Okay!”

With that, she fumbled inside her backpack and found another light. After putting the energy stone in it,

she

pressed the button and instantly lit it up.

“Let’s go!” she exclaimed.

Gerald took over the light, lifted the lid, and lead the way inside.

Carolyn took the initiative to guard their rear, and the four of them walked down the stairs.

The stairs were not very long. After a corner, they entered a place that looked like a cellar. It was

equivalent

to about two underground floors!

Gerald looked around and fixed the light on the ceiling. The entire cellar was instantly illuminated.

Although much time had passed, the cellar was actually relatively dry, but most of the things in the

cellar were covered in a thick layer of dust!

Gerald looked around and realized that this place was a bit like an office. There seemed to be various

kinds of weapons on the walls not far away.

Similarly, those were also covered in a thick layer of dust.

He walked over and used Vital Energy to remove the thick layer of dust on the wall. A wind attribute

ability surged, and in an instant, the whole room was filled with smoke and dust.

“Gerald!” Valery glared at him.

Gerald let out a dry cough. He controlled the wind to press all the dust toward the ground. Then, he

used the ice attribute to form a layer of ice on the ground, making it impossible for the dust to drift

around.

The weapons on the wall were also exposed now.

Gerald walked over and took a saber. He pulled it out to examine it, only to find that there was only the

handle left, making it completely unusable.

“It’s been too long. These weapons seem to be broken,” Gerald said.

Carolyn, however, was eager to try. “There are at least 40 or 50 pieces on this wall. What if there are

good ones left? Those may be very good quality.”

The saber she was using now, other than the one given by Benson, was Sapphire Star. The quality of

the saber was quite average and could be called a long sword.

Watchmen like Gerald had a habit of using two sabers at the same time.

It would be great if he could find a very good saber here.

Joy overwhelmed Gerald and Carolyn as they pulled out their blades.

On the other hand, Valery and Anabel began to look around.

The room did seem to be a place to store weapons, but there were also several tables!

Valery walked up to a table. She did not know what the table was made of, but even after a long time, it

was still intact. After Gerald used his wind attribute ability to blow the dust in the room to the ground

and froze it with another attribute-related ability, the table looked like it had two new layers.

Valery walked to the table and opened the drawer.

There were a lot of things in the drawer, but most of them were rotten.

Frowning, Valery rummaged through it for a while and found a notebook and an envelope.

“Huh!” Valery’s expression changed slightly. She waved at Gerald and said, “Gerald, come and have a

look.”

Gerald put down the rotten saber in his hand and ran toward Valery. At this time, Anabel also looked

over

curiously.

There was a sealed notebook and envelope in Valery’s hand.

“What’s this?” Gerald asked.

“I don’t know. I found it in this box. It hasn’t been opened yet,” said Valery.

Gerald was surprised. He opened the envelope as Anabel came over.

People would always be curious about events that happened in ancient times.

Gerald opened the envelope. Inside, there was a piece of paper of unknown material, densely written,

with

several sheets of paper.

The first two words at the beginning were “last will”!

“Is this actually a will?” Gerald’s expression changed slightly as he read it.

[My son, Tripp. The Eight Forces have been besieging Nether Domain for more than three months. The

spies

have reported that they will launch an all-out attack tomorrow! Nether Domain can’t hold on any longer!

I will leave this letter for you. I hope you will have a chance to read it when you return.

Son, you have fought in the Nebula for more than ten years with Nether King, but you still haven’t

returned. Three years ago, Death Lord Yair returned and said you were met with resistance in the

depths of Nebula and that Nether King. Lamont Valdez, was seriously injured. The accompanying army

suffered heavy casualties, with only one in ten surviving. Death Lords also died in battle, and Nether

King retreated with serious injuries.

His whereabouts are unknown.

This is an internal matter, yet it has somehow spread to everyone in Nether Domain. Several forces

that submitted to Nether Palace, including the Aggro Tribe and the Blood Tribe, have gathered their

forces and rose up. In three years, almost all of Havotune fell, and Nether Palace’s name is being

erased.]

Gerald shuddered once he finished reading.

This letter seemed to outline things from ancient times.

The existence of Nether Palace and the rise of the Eight Forces stood out on the paper.

Gerald and Valery exchanged looks of shock.

They had searched hard for news about Nether Palace. They didn’t expect to gain information about it

from a

will in this place.

It was as if Nether Palace used to have a territory of its own.

“What is Nether Palace?” Anabel was puzzled. It seemed she had never heard of it before.

The name “Nether Palace” was a taboo that the Eight Forces were not allowed to mention. The

younger

generation knew very little about it, including Benson.

However, there was a problem – both Cohn and Dwayne knew. They were heads of their own families.

Gerald looked at Anabel and asked, “Have you never heard of it?”

Anabel shook her head and said, “No!”

“Just take a look. Don’t tell anyone about this, and don’t ask anyone from the Archaic Tribe. It seems

like this

is a taboo. Speak of this, and you will be hunted down by the Eight Forces,” Gerald said.

Anabel’s pupils shrank. “Is it that serious?”

“It seems so. We don’t know much about it. We have been in contact with the head of the Pierce family

in

Rime City before, and he has repeatedly instructed us not to inquire about Nether Palace,” Gerald said.

“The Pierce family of Rime City?” repeated Anabel. “I know. My grandfather told me that they were the

direct descendants of the Archaic Tribe. Later, they took the initiative to leave the Archaic Tribe and ran

to

Havotune.”

Gerald was surprised. The Pierce family was indeed inextricably linked to the Archaic Tribe.

He continued reading the letter.

[Three months ago, the eight forces united and crossed the sea, heading straight to Nether Domain…]

Gerald frowned at that moment. “Someone’s here!”

There was a sound of footsteps above their heads. Someone was walking down the stairs.
