Chapter 113: Phoenix
Black Iron City. Uptown Central. Black Church.
Years ago, a prominent figure in the Darkest Guild descended on Black Iron City and destroyed the city's central tower, causing the flames of hell to spread across most of the city, but the church in the center of the city miraculously survived. But its stone walls were blackened by the flames of hell, and the black church was named after it. The meaning of black here is the immortal bird, so the meaning of this church is to be reborn from the fire.
The Sainte-Liturgy had just ended, and the great church was empty after the retreat.
The light inside the church is a little dim, and the candles on the delicate candelabra flicker.
A well-dressed man with a round face sat in the first row, a detached and unwanted chant playing on the gramophone, his eyes closed, waiting quietly for something in a melodious tune.
If Du Yueming was sitting here, he would definitely be able to recognize this man. This man was the one he had drunk a glass of Margaret in Watchmen that day.
"You're here at the right time, yes, precisely. The man glanced at the retro and delicate steam watch on his wrist and said.
"Hmm. Someone answered, and some were weak.
The man was lying a few inches in front of the round-faced man's toes, and no one knew when he had suddenly appeared.
Then the faint light could be seen, and on the dark red carpet lay a bloody creature, whose flesh was glued to his clothes, and his body was completely ill-visible, and he was only called a man because he still had a silhouette. It's a miracle that such a person is still alive.
"Did you bring anything?" asked the round-faced man.
"Brought it. The bloody creature handed a magic gun from his bosom to the round-faced man.
The man didn't care about the dirt on it, he took the gun, and actually pulled a sealed test tube from the long barrel. He pointed the test tube at the candle flame, and instead of liquid, it was floating in the form of a black mist.
"Not bad. You really didn't disappoint me, the negative emotions you collected were awesome, so pure. ”
"Will I still live? Mr. Chicken. The man lying on the ground struggled to raise his head and look at the round-faced man. His eyes were burned blind, and only two large black eye sockets remained, staring at the man with a deep shadow.
"Of course. I think you have a lot of potential. ”
"But the body that has been burned by the black flame can't be repaired, my lord. ”
"Flesh and blood can be compensated for with steam alchemy. I am pleased with your performance, and I am willing to let you follow me until the old gods come. From now on, you will use my last name. ”
"What's your last name?"
"That's right. That's my last name, the great Phoenix. Also, please write down my real name, Xu Jie Phoenix, not many people know my real name. ”
"Phoenix...... Xu Jie Phoenix ......" the flesh blurred man repeated.
"Hmm. But my real name is a little strange, alas, who told my dissolute father to marry a woman of the Eastern world. You just know my real name, and you'll still call me Mr. Chicken in the future. Got it?"
"Understood. ”
"Are you ready to join me on the path to the Birthday?"
"I ...... Prepare for ......"
"Wait, you still seem to have a flaw in your heart, the old gods don't like ungodly believers. ”
"I ...... It's a pity that I couldn't send Du Yueming to the operating table. ”
"That person named Du Yueming, don't touch him for the time being, he's an interesting guy, you have to suppress your preference. As long as the old gods are revived, all your ideals will be fulfilled, you know?"
"You are, all ideals ......" The blurred face was only half of the mouth open, and the gums were exposed, but it was the half of the mouth that slowly outlined an arc.
"So are you ready, welcome your new life, and all of you and I will embark on the road to God's birth. ”
"I'm ready. Jack said reverently.
.........
After the incident passed, Du Yueming's life temporarily became dull.
A series of things made him a little tired, so he stayed in the dormitory without going out much.
Du Yueming still lives in the same place, and although Danny suggests that he be given a new room, he refuses. The dormitory is empty, and the people who can no longer make do with the king of the grand event are a little lonely.
Du Yueming is not an easy supporter, he just feels a little tired, and after two days of adjustment, his state is much better. Then he suddenly remembered one thing, and that was the address that the werewolf had given him.
At No. 58 Zhilan Street, Du Yueming inquired and found out that the coordinates seemed to be a hotel in the lower city of the Black Iron City.
Du Yueming looked all the way over, and the owner of the inn was a shirtless tattooed, with a big waist and a bad complexion.
"Do you know Wolf, please?" Du Yueming directly indicated his intention.
"You're probably looking for those poor orcs. They're on the second floor, but don't blame me for not warning you, those beast brutes stink, dirty, disgusting. ”
"Uh-huh. ”
"Hey. Are you going to go up to find someone like this?" The boss with an unkind face suddenly stopped Du Yueming, who was about to go to the second floor.
"Do you have something?" Du Yueming asked calmly.
"Of course. It's not appropriate for you to just go in and find someone if you don't live in the store. And do you know those orcs when you look for them? That Wolf won't come back, and they owe a lot of rent, so I think you'll help you pay it. The boss banged on the table.
"Are you blackmailing me?" Du Yueming asked directly. Although he didn't mind spending a little more, he noticed that there were many unkind eyes staring at him around the inn, and if he was blackmailed like this, he was afraid that many uninteresting people would come to him later. That's endless, that's very annoying, obviously not the result that Du Yueming wants to see.
"That's right. I see that you are well-dressed and naturally have a lot of money in your pocket. The boss actually made no secret of it, and then took out a double-barreled firearm and pointed at Du Yueming's head and threatened.
"Then what if I don't look for it, can I not pay?" Du Yueming raised his hands and made a surrender form.
"Of course not, you have to come up with a few words today. Son, let me tell you who doesn't know me in this place? When the Night Raven Gang is still around, even Lei Jinhu will give me some face. ”
"Oh. But I hate being held at gunpoint. Du Yueming held the barrel of the gun, and with a slight break, the barrel was actually bent.
The boss's eyes were about to fall off, how much strength does it take? This fire gun is made of real high-hardness alloy. And that guy doesn't seem to be working hard yet.
Du Yueming didn't give the boss a chance to continue to be shocked, he pulled the gun again, and the boss only smashed the gun into the wooden hollow counter Zheng Du Yueming looked light, glanced outside casually, and the unkind eyes gathered around him dispersed. That's how the monkey is played, and if the unlucky boss wants to blame him, his skills are not as good as others, and his luck is not very good, and he is blackmailed and blackmailed.
