Chapter 1860 Luck and Loss
On that day, Malone's last remaining feelings for humanity vanished completely.
From that moment on, he no longer understood the meaning of mercy towards humans...
He gathered the spoils from the slaughter of the Minotaur and fled the heart of the alien territory.
They arrived at a low-level human civilization and concealed their presence.
Half a month later, when Malone walked out of that low-level civilization world, he had already evolved to the monarch level!
He wielded a king-level battle sword and wore level two god-level battle armor, roaming the various forbidden and secret realms he had learned about during his time with the treasure-hunting army.
Malone always held other races in awe and never dared to provoke them.
He understood that there were countless powerful alien races, and even he, in his current state, faced the constant threat of death.
But he was more cruel to humans than to any other living being.
Often, he would travel with humans, and when he finally gained something, he would kill and plunder...
Not only did they sweep away the spoils of others, but those supreme experts and monarch candidates were also quite wealthy...
His strength increased day by day, and he often mingled with the extraterrestrial humans in various secret realms.
Gradually, Malone gained a deeper understanding of the vast and boundless void.
He learned that within the void, besides secret realms and the realm of death, there were also forbidden zones, ancient ruins, and primordial ruins...
There's even... a forbidden zone of life!
The Void Forbidden Zone and the Ancient Ruins are a level of terror that surpasses the various secret realms and the Netherworld.
The forbidden zone of life is even more terrifying than the forbidden land of nothingness, ancient times, or ancient ruins.
No one knows how these forbidden zones of life were formed; each one is large enough to cover an entire vast domain…
Therefore, it is not a forbidden area, but a forbidden zone!
Rumor has it that even beings at the level of Ancestral Gods who enter the Void Forbidden Land and ancient ruins have a great chance of being able to leave.
But even ancestral gods have never been able to leave the forbidden zone of life...
Besides, there are also dangerous places within the void...
Such places offer few opportunities, but for most living beings, they are also fraught with danger.
It's not a secret realm, nor a ruin, nor a forbidden zone for life...
Someone told Malone that in ancient times, there were countless realms in the void, but nearly half of them had turned into dead realms.
Even the current First Domain was only renamed during the era of the White-Robed Emperor of the Human Race.
In fact, in ancient times, that place was called the Second Great Domain!
As for the first ancient domain, it has long since become a dead domain!
Before the Covenant of All Races was signed, more than five thousand domains in the Void Domains had all been transformed into dead domains.
Today, apart from the former second largest domain and the current largest domain, the thirtieth and tenth domains are all connected...
Between the 30th and 10,000th domains, if you go from the beginning to the end, you may occasionally encounter a dead domain!
Within all the dead zones, rules fade away, and the extraordinary departs. Only the most humble small clans, or those that have offended powerful clans and cannot survive, can thrive in the dead zones.
They are no less powerful than the races protected by the Covenant of All Races, and even less so than the human race. Once encountered, they can be killed at will!
Of course, to kill them, one must first enter the dead zone. The creatures from outside the zone are unfamiliar with the terrain and are far less adept at dealing with crises than the local creatures!
But the Dead Zone is also a good place for treasure hunters like them...
……
As the saying goes, a horse won't get fat without night grass, and a person won't get rich without unexpected wealth.
They robbed and plundered, stealing gold belts; they repaired bridges and roads, leaving no trace of their dead...
Wealth and fortune are often found in perilous situations!
Malone's strength was increasing every day. In just fifty years, his basic attributes had become comparable to those of alien gods!
Having traveled extensively throughout various regions over the years, Malone's experiences and knowledge are far beyond those of ordinary humans.
He felt that he should return to the human race, as the White Helmet Army had long been wiped out by the Minotaur race.
There's no need to worry about it anymore.
Later, he learned that in the Eighth Domain, a King Mo had emerged, who became the ruler of the human race in just a few years.
Although King Mo was not an emperor, he stirred up a storm among all races that was even greater than that of an emperor...
Malone originally intended to go and assess Mo Junwang's strength, hoping to seize the throne and bring the entire human race under his control.
But upon meeting him, he was utterly horrified…
That old man was too strong, and too domineering; his approach was the exact opposite of Malone's...
The old man's single glance was enough to make Ma Long tremble with fear, and he couldn't help but prostrate himself in worship.
Only then did he realize that there were such extraordinary beings among the human race!
Ma Long had followed Mo Junwang for a time, intending to take advantage of the chaos and find an opportunity in the old man.
However, as he got to know the old man better, he found that he could never get the old man to look at him more than once.
Before King Mo, even someone like Ma Long was nothing more than a cabbage skin in the dust.
To Ma Long's even greater shock, as time passed, he gradually became assimilated by the old man's bloodthirstiness and domineering nature, and his state of mind underwent a significant change.
It's hard to feel hostility towards the elderly anymore; all that remains in one's heart is admiration.
Like billions of other human beings, when they knelt at the feet of the old man, their hearts were filled with fervor.
He didn't want to be that kind of person, and he didn't want to fight for anyone.
Malone had no choice but to leave Red Armor, and by chance, he stepped into a dead zone.
But there, they found the entrance to an ancient ruin.
That place had long been occupied by a being of the Ancestral God level, but that being of the Ancestral God level seemed to be hindered by some kind of force.
They seemed unable to go any deeper, yet unwilling to leave.
I wonder how many years that ancestral god-level being spent there...
After discovering all this, Malone immediately realized that there must be a great treasure in the ruins.
Perhaps the ancestral god-level being had existed for too long and had become numb, or perhaps something had gone wrong with that ancestral god-level being.
With his Rank Space and Earth-type Ability, Malone actually managed to successfully enter the ruins.
Soon, he discovered the Earth Emperor Cauldron...
It wasn't because he was particularly lucky, but because of his human identity, the Earth Emperor Cauldron spontaneously broke through the ground and flew towards him to claim him as its master.
Ma Long guessed that he was able to obtain the Earth Emperor Cauldron only because no human had ever set foot there since ancient times.
After the contract with the Earth Emperor Cauldron was formed, the Ancestral God-level being was attracted by the aura of the Earth Emperor Cauldron and arrived rapidly.
Ma Long escaped the ancient ruins thanks to the defense provided by the Earth Emperor Cauldron.
But he kept this matter in his heart, planning to kill that ancestral god when he became stronger in the future.
Upon his return from the Dead Zone, he received news of King Mo's demise.
Eight or nine out of ten human warriors are killed by alien races!
Mo Yinling's battlefield domain was divided into ten thousand parts, scattered across countless domains.
From then on, it became a battlefield for all races.
Humanity suffered defeat after defeat, and the foundation that King Mo had just built was destroyed in an instant.
With the Earth Emperor Cauldron, Ma Long emerged into the world, and among the human race, no one could surpass him.
Naturally, they formed alliances with major clans such as the Lizard Clan, the White Clan, and the Fire Clan.
He led the human race to sign the Covenant of All Races, stabilizing the situation.
From that moment on, he became the number one human!
The next million years were neither a long nor a short time for a being comparable to a fifth-level god.
Over millions of years, Malone learned what power was and became deeply fascinated by the feeling.
He also learned how to seek fame and fortune, how to hide his true self... and he got used to waking up every morning to receive the worship of the crowd...
Gradually, Malone had long forgotten that unbearable memory...
In his view now, the entire human race is his private property.
They have the power of life and death, and can act according to their whims.
Of course, he didn't want to lose his things easily either.
Malone also leads the Golden Armored Warriors in frequent battles against the human race...
……
About four years ago, Malone was wandering in the void when he happened to meet an old man.
His name is The Bookman!
That old guy actually used quasi-god level power to annihilate an angel race, a second-level god...
In that old man, Malone actually saw the shadow of the former King Mo...
