Chapter 43: The Stargazer
"See you again, little one. "The white-haired old man stood in front of us, no longer the old guard uniform, but a golden and silver mage robe, "Two undead and a demon beast trespassed on human territory, you say, what should I do?"www.biquge.info ”
…… Last night, we set out from that small village and traveled to the city of Vend in one night and one morning, and after several hours of waiting, we finally arrived in the city of Baon through the teleportation array at dusk. But as soon as I came back to my senses, I was surrounded by more than a dozen guards, and this "janitor" who had a relationship with me a long time ago was standing in front of me.
"You're... What do you mean? I put my hand on the hilt of my sword, and Rust summoned Liyue to protect the weakest salad in the middle with my back to me, "If there is a war, even the Archmage is dangerous to confront a ghoul lord at such a close distance, right?" ”
"No, Xiaoye, you're wrong." At this time, he spoke, "He's really not afraid of our speed, but the ghost step can give him some trouble." ”
"Am I right? Stargazer kid? How far do you see now? Did they come and kill us when they saw that I was going to destroy the continent? ”
"thesighsislimited, buttheuniverseisinfinite." The old man sighed, "Your Excellency's soul has never dissipated, neither in the past nor in the future, and the revelation of the starlight has only allowed me to imprison Your Excellency as much as possible." ”
"Catch me? And whatever could limit my movements, I wouldn't have to be a stargazer if I wanted to escape from prison. "Even if I don't run away, how can you have that confidence that you won't be killed by me?" ”
"Your Excellency has people to protect, and with them here, Your Excellency should have some scruples." The old man shook his head, "Since Your Excellency knows the stargazers, you should understand that we are powerful, and ordinary attacks cannot help us. ”
"How do you know if you don't fight? Get down! Devouring suddenly roared, the claws slashed from left to right, and the power of the undead spread in the form of an air blade, but the old man raised his right hand, causing the space in front of the guard to collapse, and it was the power of the undead that was annihilated in it.
"Phew...... It's really troublesome......" Devouring pouted, "I should be the Grand Magus after living for so long...... Xiaoye, did you measure your height this morning? "No, I'm in a hurry in the morning, so I don't have time." I rolled my eyes, "But it's not obvious that there's no such thing as a salago, right?" ”
"Really? Then it hurts......" With my sigh of emotion, I was surprised to see a pitch-black barrier unfurl from behind the old man, enveloping me and him in it, and hiding the figures of others.
"What is this?" I asked, tilting my head slightly to the right.
"Personal World...... "Xiao Ye, be careful, the next thing is his home field." "What do you mean?" I was a little confused, but suddenly I found that I no longer felt like I was stepping on the ground, and with a little force, I would step on the air...... What's going on?
"The seven-colored rainbow step is the stage where the warrior fights the heaven and the earth with his own, and the great magister is the proof that the wise man embodies his own heart." He exhaled lightly and explained, wrapping the power of the undead around his fingertips, "Simply put, he is in charge of his world. ”
"Xingluo, chessboard." As if to verify the words, in the darkness, the old man's voice came from all directions, and the next moment, countless lights lit up around me, and balls of light of different shapes spun and flew by, but they all moved around an extremely dazzling huge ball of light.
"Devouring ......" I was a little distracted, "what the hell is this ......"
“thisis…… universe (this is...... Universe). "Suddenly I used a language I didn't understand, "SpaceandTime, OrderAndChaos, ThereThereAnythingInThisWorldofTheStars......"
"InthisvastSeaofStars, EventHegodsareinfinitelySmall (In this vast sea of stars, even the gods seem incomparably small)." The old man suddenly appeared in front of us, "Your Excellency, I know a lot. ”
"Don't talk nonsense." Swallow raised his right claw, "If you want to fight, if your subordinates don't know the severity, don't blame me for tearing the skin with the entire continent." ”…… Since Rust arrived, I've been a lot more impatient.
"Your Excellency, please rest assured, I can still adjust the speed of time in this world." The old man smiled slightly, "I understand Your Excellency's disgust for being imprisoned, why don't you make a bet on this condition?" ”
——————————
"I'm sorry, Ra, for making you suffer." Apologetically looking at Rust, who was restrained by the shackles, she stretched out her right hand with difficulty, trying to smooth her hair.
"Hey, I said are you bothered?" Rust was about to respond, but was robbed by Salad, "You are inhibited by the enchantment and the power of the undead is difficult to move, and she is put in an enchanted shackle, but I want to enjoy double treatment!" ”
…… Yes, I and the devouring ...... The bet was lost.
Even if he used the last trace of devouring power, he couldn't tear the barrier of that space and break away from it, and the price paid for this was to become a prisoner.
"But at least you can talk, you look at the other side." I tried to nunnure my mouth, drawing the attention of the other three to the cell opposite, leaving them speechless for a moment—the difference was too obvious, after all.
The barrier that inhibits the power of the undead encompasses the entire dungeon, and the body is suspended in the air by four chains in a diagonal cross shape, and the head is wrapped in a metal helmet, and the blood that runs from the neck confirms the sharp spikes inside the helmet.
Five spears pierced the wrists, ankles, and the middle of the sternum, and judging by the rise and fall of the chest, the "person" was supposed to be a woman.
"See, it's because the boobs are too big and the body is out of balance, and you always fall on the ground when you walk, and because of the jealousy of other women, you can be tortured like this." After a moment of silence, he said something strange - how much he hated big breasts?
"Whoa!" The woman on the other side suddenly moved her body, and the chains rattled, and blood flowed from the wound again...... Is it a protest against the devouring words? I'm good at hearing.
…… But the color of this blood is a little strange, isn't it? Purple?
"Devour, on the other side, what race is it?" Since there is a jack-of-all-trades, it is natural to ask for advice when you encounter doubts.
"Eighty percent of them are likely to be a demon, or at least have demonic blood, and their blood is a strange color." "But she's healing faster than a normal demon...... So there must be some other race mixed in. ”
"For example... Bloodline? I pinched my chin slightly, "Speaking of which, even demons don't have many people who can stick a javelin in their chest and not die, right?" Are we demons? "Demons are "creatures" made up of the power of the undead, so it seems......
"How do you say it......" Devouring seemed a little helpless, "Actually, I've been struggling with this question for a long time, although they all use the power of the undead to form bodies, but the attribute of demons is [destruction], our attribute is [devouring], and our physiological characteristics are more like ghouls...... So I'm also having a headache with this racial issue. ”
"Hey, what's going on to happen when it becomes a bloodline study?" Salad, who finally turned over and lay on the ground, was dissatisfied, "It's really strange for seniors to make a serious expression with this kind of child's face, huh?" ”
"It's boring." Swallowing his face didn't care, "Hey, that disgusting guy with big breasts on the other side, even if you mix up the slime blood, you should complete the spiritual link, right?" ”…… Spiritual Links?
"What do you mean by big breasts and disgusting, you souls! Believe it or not, the old lady used this pair of ** to kill you in the chest! A woman's roar came from her head, "And the old lady hasn't mixed in any slime blood!" The old lady's full name is Leo Distory! ”
“…… レオ~ウルトラマン! レオ~は君の番だ! レオ~は、戦闘! "What are you singing?" Why don't all three sentences leave my name? After a moment of silence, Leo roared again at the sudden singing of a strange song.
"No, no, no, I'm just singing the praises of a great warrior who, despite the destruction of his homeland, still fights for the innocent people, a man with the title of a red lion, and an absolute brother with flat horns ultramanleo!" "I've never heard of that strange guy!" The chains on the other side were still rattling, "And why would this kind of guy have the same name as the old lady!" ”
…… In fact, intuitively, it is more likely that you and him will share the same name. I thought silently.
"Aren't you in pain? Wouldn't it bleed a lot if you moved like that? I wondered, "Or are you not in pain?" ”
…… But neither the demons nor the Bloods have lost their pain sense, have they? "Pain or something, it's been numb for a long time." Leo suddenly calmed down, "It's almost time, and you can see how trivial this little injury is when you look at what will happen." ”
"Bang!" As soon as he finished speaking, the sound of the dungeon door being violently opened came from the other end of the corridor, followed by the sound of chaotic footsteps, and a group of men in the uniforms of the guards of Ba'ang City stood in front of Leo's cell, and opened the iron door violently, and then, six long swords reflecting silver light had stabbed Leo into his lower abdomen.
Silver Sword ...... And it also comes with the effect of [Exorcism], right? But Leo didn't even move...... It can't be that you've passed out, right? I raised an eyebrow, only to hear a vague, hoarse voice coming from under the mask, "Hey... Do you hate my body so much? Didn't you really want it before? ”
"Soul light!" One of the guards roared and slammed his fist wrapped in red air into Leo's stomach, "Killed the captain that way...... You unforgivable sin! ”
“…… Something strange seems to have happened. Eater said with a smile.
"Isn't it? My body, my strength, what you desire, all my ......" Even though his body was gradually filled with silver swords, Leo's tone was still unhurried, even with a hint of temptation...... Sure enough, demons are a terrible race......
"It's disgusting!" Leo's complaint suddenly sounded in his mind, "This kind of thing is really only the succubus group of blue pools that can be like fish in water, right?" That guy who coveted the old lady's body deserved to be blown into ashes! ”
"Xiaoye, Xiaola, what do you think of that woman?" Eater asked suddenly.
"The woman?" Lust, who also heard Leo's speech from the spiritual link, looked at Leo, who was being tortured by the purification technique, and sighed, "You're a person who despises life, right?" ”
…… Actually, it should be said that it is a demon who has maintained his killing nature, right? I looked at the salad, only to see that the little girl had closed her eyes tightly - was she still scared? After all, it's just a teenage girl.
"Hey, those little brothers over there, can you tell me what crime that demon has committed?" Suddenly he asked the guards.
"What crime?" The answer came from the next cell, "For humanity, her existence, no, our existence is sin itself, where is there any need for additional crimes?" ”
"Quiet! Undead! This is a prison! Among the people who executed Leo, the only man who was watching from the sidelines suddenly shouted, "You, teach the new kid the rules here!" ”
"Yes, Your Excellency." The voice next door carried a hint of flattery, "I'll teach them, you have to study hard, newcomer!" ”
"Rules...... I'm afraid that when I first came in, the prisoners here were all aware, right? He smiled and whispered. I, on the other hand, understood what he meant in an instant.
Then, according to the character of the devour, the next sentence should be......
"Let them understand our rules!"
