Chapter 329: The Fate Runner
In an empty and silent place, a voice came from behind him.
Listening to the voice, Adil turned to look behind him, just in time to see a figure appear behind him, silently watching him there.
It was an old man dressed in a black cloth robe, and his face looked a little old and terrifying, the skin on his face was loose, covered with red flesh cocoons one after another, and purulent blood was constantly flowing out of it, which looked very terrifying.
He stood there quietly, without the breath of a living person on his body, only a pair of eyes that looked quite vivid, calm and full of spirituality, with a kind of vicissitudes and antiquity that had been experienced by the world.
"Who are you?"
Looking at the appearance of the person in front of him, Adil frowned and asked.
From the body of the old man in front of him, he felt an unusual aura.
In addition to the way he appeared and his appearance, he also cared about the aura of this old man.
It was an extremely strong aura of decay, not physical, but like the decay of the essence of the soul, which gave him an extremely awkward feeling.
"You shouldn't be here. ”
Looking at Adil in front of him, the old man spoke, his eyes were always calm: "In the picture I saw, there is no existence of you. ”
As he spoke, a picture began to appear in front of him.
In the midst of the ruins, several figures walked.
It was also six figures, and each of them was very familiar to Adiel.
"Rida, Andak..." Looking at these six figures, Adil was expressionless, and quietly read out the names of those people.
These six people happen to be the six people who came here this time, but unlike them, judging from the breath, the Andak that appears in this picture should be the real Andak, not him, an impostor.
This thought flashed through my mind, and the next moment, the picture in front of me began to change.
Another image begins to appear, in which a huge monster with three heads appears, roaring in the sky on the plain.
At the foot of this monster, the corpses of the five Andaks lay quietly on the ground, leaving only Rida alone, struggling to run into the distance, the original left arm had disappeared, and the injury looked bloody.
"This is..." Looking at this scene, Adil looked stunned.
"This is a scene in the future that was supposed to happen. Ahead, the old man's voice sounded.
He looked at Adil in front of him, and his eyes looked calm: "In you, I can't see the power of fate. ”
"You are not accepted by the wheel of fate of this world, but you are not affected. ”
Looking at Adier, the old man spoke, seemingly very interested in Adil's current state.
Standing opposite him, listening to his words, Adiel's heart became more and more solemn: "Wheel of Fortune?
"The wheel of fate, this is the unity of the fate of this world, but all life born in this world exists in the wheel of fate of this world. ”
Looking at Adier, the old man quietly explained to him: "As for the existence of another world like you, because it does not exist in the fate of this world in the first place, I can't see your figure from it. ”
Listening to the old man's words, Adil frowned secretly, and subconsciously touched the long sword on his waist with his right hand.
"Don't be so nervous. ”
Looking at Adier's movements, the old man smiled, and an ugly smile appeared on his ugly and old face: "Although this kind of thing is rare to enter different worlds, it is nothing to some powerful worlds and races. ”
"In my thousands of years of life, in different worlds, I have seen at least dozens of otherworldly beings. ”
He looked at Adil and said with some regret: "It's a pity that most of these people didn't end well, and they basically died from the poison of the world." ”
"The poison of the world?" Listening to this somewhat unfamiliar word, Adil asked decisively.
"This is the backlash of the world. The old man explained: "When you smuggle into a world, the instincts of the world will begin to eat back, and the power of the world will seep into the depths of your soul and slowly affect you. ”
"You can think of this as a disagreement, but the consequences are much more serious than that. ”
Speaking of this, he smiled, and then pointed to his old and ugly face: "The way I am now is the backlash caused by the poison of the world, which has gradually made me what I am now." ”
"That's why you got my attention. ”
He looked at Adil and said with interest: "Your essence is very special, obviously the level of your soul is not high, but it seems to be able to shield the erosion of the power of the world, even if you follow a child of destiny, you can still live alive until now, and you don't even seem to have anything at all." ”
"It's something I wouldn't even dare to do. ”
"Child of Destiny. Hearing this, Adil was stunned for a moment, thinking of the picture he had seen earlier.
In the previous picture, there are four figures, one of whom is Alina.
"Yes, it's the little girl. ”
As if to understand what Adil was thinking, the old man spoke: "Don't look at her as foolish, she is a real child of destiny." ”
"Have you heard of the main character template? He spoke, and then seemed to remember something, and patted his head again: "I forgot that you are just a novice, and I guess I haven't touched this kind of thing before." ”
You can think of this as the protagonist of an epic, no matter how low the starting point, no matter how humble the origin, will eventually go to the stage at the center of the world and let everyone make way for her. ”
"Of course, this little girl can't get to this point, she's a supporting character at best, not to the point of being a child of the world. ”
The old man kept talking, like a chatterbox.
After a while, looking at the somewhat awkward expression on Adier's face, he reacted and said with some embarrassment: "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I haven't talked to anyone for a long time, so I can't help but talk a little more." ”
"Don't you know, in order to stay in this world for as long as possible, I usually try not to talk to people, for fear that a bad one will cause the power of the world to fluctuate and deepen the poison of the world on my body. ”
"Only in front of a special existence like you can I dare to speak like this, without worrying about causing a backlash from the power of the world. ”
"Well, after talking about it for so long, it's time to get back to business. ”
The old man's face was straight: "Let me introduce myself, I am Chelal, a messenger of fate." ”
"Adiel. Looking at the other party's appearance, Adil also had a slightly correct face and introduced himself.
"You have a lot of potential, are you interested in becoming a messenger of destiny? ”
On the other side, the old man named Cheeral looked at Adil in front of him and spoke, with a little bewilderment in his expression: "As long as you become a life runner, I can tell you many things that you didn't know in the past." ”
"Destiny Runner, what does that do?" Looking at the enthusiastic appearance of Killal in front of him, Adil quietly took a step back, and then asked rhetorically.
"As you can see. Looking at Adier's appearance, Killal didn't care, just smiled: "We are walkers walking on the edge of fate, with the child of fate as the prey, with the power of the world as the goal, and walking in the pluralistic world. ”
"The specific things and rules are still too complicated for you now. ”
Looking at Adier, Killal spoke, "You just need to know what you can get. ”
"By becoming a Destiny Runner, you can earn the Mark of Destiny, which you can use to gather the power of the world. ”
"As for the use of the power of the world, I don't need to say more about this, you will naturally know later. ”
"What do I need to give?" said Adil rhetorically, looking at Killal in front of him.
"I like to work with smart people. With a snap of his fingers, a smile appeared on Killal's face: "One thousand units of World Stone, allowing you to delay payment for a period of five hundred years. ”
"One thousand units of world stones. Listening to this number, Adil subconsciously frowned, a little confused about the meaning of this number.
For the profession of life operator, he is completely blinded, and all the information he knows so far is from the other party, and if he is not careful, he may be cheated by the other party.
"The so-called World Stone is the condensation of the power of the world, and it is also what we need to obtain. ”
On the other side, looking at Adiel's reaction, Killal opened his mouth and explained: "Don't look at the number of one thousand units, but in fact, just leaving the mark of fate on you requires me to pay a hundred World Stones first. ”
"Moreover, for others, the number of 1,000 World Stones may be a lot, but for you, it may not be. ”
He paused, then spoke: "Your soul essence is very special, and it seems to be able to shield the world's perception of you, so that you can approach the children of destiny in this world unaffected. ”
"This has a very good condition, the Destiny Child often has a terrifying world power condensed in its body, and you only need to cause some influence to the Destiny Child casually, and you can intercept a lot of the world's power through the Destiny Mark. ”
Speaking of this, his expression became a little obscene: "For example, the little girl next to you, if you can continue to influence her, make her like you, and even finally marry and have children with you, then you can immediately get a large sum of money, and it is trivial to get one or two thousand world stones at one time." ”
"If you can kill her and end part of this world early, then the harvest will be amazing, and it will definitely make you a monopoly all at once. ”
"Of course, I'd advise you not to do that unless you have to. He opened his mouth and added: "The child of fate has a large amount of world power condensed, once it is killed, then the backlash caused by the world power will come immediately, causing terrible consequences. ”
"I won't say much about what the consequences are, anyway, it's serious. ”
Speaking of this, he looked at Adiel: "Okay, that's all for the extra words." ”
"So, what about your choice?"
