In the next few chapters, it's best to read the original comic book before reading, otherwise you may read it in a fog.

――――――――――――――――――――――

The sound of horses' hooves is particularly clear at night, as crisp and pleasant as the raindrops falling under the eaves of the house after a rain on the moss, but ...... If it is accompanied by a heavy gasp of nervous exhaustion, this mood will seem a little tasteless.

The game held the reins of the white horse under his crotch tightly with both hands, and nervously looked at the dark environment around him.

He chased Tapir Liang out of the palace, and galloped all the way, but he had unconsciously left the noisy city and entered the barren mountains and mountains in the wilderness, surrounded by dense jungles except for steep mountains and rocks, black and misty, and could not be seen really.

In ancient times, there was nothing that could be illuminated instantly, and if it weren't for the fact that the clouds weren't too thick tonight, and a little moonlight could come down, he might not even be able to see these things, and he would be as blind as he could see.

Listening closely, in addition to the sound of horses' hooves and their own wheezing in the quiet mountains and forests, there is only a strange dead silence, as if there is only this person and a horse left between the vast heaven and earth, and there is nothing else.

(Did you lose it?) ）

The game reined in the reins and stared at his surroundings as a large black shadow passed over his head, flashing with lightning that illuminated the shadows as if they were daylight.

"How can a bush in the middle of summer not even sound insects...... Do you have to force me to do it!? ”

Following the direction of his index finger, the dark night sky suddenly lit up with orange-gold thunderbolts, and the deafening thunder resounded in the air, which was transmitted dozens of miles away, looking up, it was a crimson dragon that was imprinted by the electric light, it had two strange giant mouths, and it was the slightly smaller mouth on the top that opened at this time, the orange-gold thunder and lightning only gathered in it for less than 1 second before it was erupted, and the electric snake twisted in the void, plowing the land below like the thunder of nature.

Summoning Thunderbolts!

A monster capable of unleashing such a powerful attack could not be an ordinary person - even in terms of size, its body hundreds of meters long surpassed all the elves and monsters! Only the God of Destruction that appeared in the palace before can be compared!

"He's crazy? Is that dragon's energy endless? The King of Thieves, who was hiding in the shadows, saw that the other party actually began to plow, and his face was very gloomy, which he did not expect.

Long before the chase, the dragon and Dilbondor fought all the way...... That's why he needed to dodge the opponent's edge for a while - his soul had been wounded in the confrontation just now.

Although the injury is not serious, it is not a way to continue like this, he can't keep the elf beast and the dragon going hard, and the head-on battle against Dilbondor is not an opponent, and his soul will be exhausted.

“…… Damn it...... Damn the god of the sky...... Osiris!!! Cursed with the name of the crimson dragon in the sky, Tapir had to sprang out before the lightning swept into his hiding place, and galloped his horse in the direction from which he came.

"Finally willing to come out!" Seeing the enemy appear, the game immediately ordered Osiris to stop the attack and turn his horse's head to chase back.

His previous judgment on Tapir Liang was completely correct, the other party really dared to take a huge risk to sneak into the palace again on the night of Mahat's death, and successfully attacked Aknadine, gouging out the thousand-year-old eye in his eye socket!

Thinking of this, the game's fingers holding the reins turned a little white - this was a naked provocation, and he wouldn't spare his opponent lightly if he said anything today!

……

"Huhu...... No way...... The two men left on horseback...... It's impossible for us to catch up with this chase. ”

Apricot Zi supported Li Bai and panted and looked at the dark street, this is not like a modern city with rows of street lamps, the light source provided by the torches is extremely poor, the visibility at night is only less than twenty meters, and the running is relatively fast, she has completely forgotten which fork in the road the other party left from.

The maiden's mention was still useful, they did see another game, that is, the pharaoh king as the common people spoke, but the game that was busy chasing the enemy did not have time to look around when he rushed out, and his whole mind was tied to chasing down the king of thieves, and it was a pity that they missed this wonderful opportunity to meet.

"Honda? What are you doing here!? Go chase it!! "Seeing the game and others turning back from the fork in front, Kyoko was angry," ...... You boys can't run, can you? ”

"Yes...... I told them to stop. "Bobasha's gasping is worse than an apricot, his body is comparable to a meat ball...... It's okay to have a short outburst, and a long exercise like this is undoubtedly killing him.

"Don't blame them...... Apricot. Li Bai raised his head with great difficulty, "This city is not small, there are not many of us, in case we get separated, it will be difficult to find it again, since his location and identity have been confirmed...... The most important thing now is to protect yourself. ”

"And maybe they'll come back."

"Come back? How can it be? "Not only Apricot, but even the others don't believe that this kind of thing will happen, they have just seen what is it that follows him in the sky when the game comes out - how can the enemy who is targeted by Osiris still run back? I'm afraid I won't be killed outside the city.

"Huh...... That's not an easy enemy to solve. The girl reached out and brushed her somewhat messy hair and looked at the street that had begun to make noise. The people of the city were alarmed by the commotion, and the houses on both sides of the street were lit up one after another, and from time to time curious eyes looked out through the windows without any glass, and even more so they had gone directly to the street to ask others what was going on.

These naïve guys...... I am afraid that I will not be able to imagine to death how much trouble such reckless behavior will cause to their king.

A transparent ripple flashed in the night sky in the distance, and the loud dragon roar sounded from far to near, and everyone looked up one after another, staring blankly at the thick body that swept overhead.

"That's ...... Is that the king of the underworld? ”

The name of Osiris was impossible for them to call out, most of them did not know the huge crimson dragon at all, only a few traveling vendors who lived in the inn had heard of it, and had seen the general appearance of one of the legendary Nine Pillars God on the carving, and it was they who shouted out the identity of the Sky Dragon.

Just when everyone didn't understand why the god appeared before their eyes, Osiris opened his largest mouth, and a pillar of thunder condensed to the extreme was sprayed into the night sky that seemed to be nothing...... As the thunder pillar gradually approached, the transparent ripples that had disappeared in the previous layer appeared in the air again, vaguely looking, it seemed that there was an ancient savage beast hidden there, and many people who were close to it were almost frightened out of their chests, and they saw the true appearance of the monster hidden in the darkness - the whole body was pitch black, the fangs were exposed, and the face was hateful enough to compare to the most vicious nightmare in nightmares.

"Am I wrong...... That was the ...... Diarbondo? ”

In the street near the palace, the remaining four priests, led by Seth, were hurrying forward, because of their strong souls, their eyesight was far beyond ordinary people, and they could see clearly the situation in the center of the battle even from a very long distance.

The sudden change in the appearance of the great enemy who made everyone so nervous would be suspicious of anyone, not to mention that the change in Dilbondo was too huge...... Its original god-like face had been completely distorted, the bridge of its nose had disappeared, leaving only two dark hollows, its teeth had become sharper and longer, and when its mouth was wide open, it could actually make its teeth and gums stick out of its mouth a full third, with a pair of huge pupils that shimmered fiercely...... This doesn't look like the elven beast before at all.

"The appearance of elves and monsters changes according to people's hearts." Seth's face was extremely gloomy, "Dilbondor will become like this...... It seems that Tapir has completely mastered the wheel of wisdom that he took from Mahat's hands and absorbed the resentment contained in it. ”

"Doesn't that mean it's going to be stronger?" Karim's face changed, the original Dilbondo was so strong, and now he had absorbed the resentment of the Millennium Wisdom Wheel, with his level of strength, he might not be able to hold even a single face, of course he would be frightened.

"Don't be presumptuous, Karim." Seth rode on his horse, trying to banish the powerlessness in his heart, he was also human, and he was equally afraid, but the pride in his heart did not allow him to flinch here, which seemed to him the act of a coward.

(Kisara...... ）

"It's stronger, but we're not such a good character!"

"Isis! Shada! ”

"Yes!"

"Summon the Sound Maiden from the Temple of the Slates, I need it to deliver a message to the Pharaoh."

……

Grabbing the reins, the game looked up at the night sky again, trying to find any trace of enemies, but what he saw was no different from before.

That's a special ability that Dil Bondo has newly evolved, [Dark Camouflage]. An ability that allows the body to melt into any dark-toned background.

It was with this strength that Tapiri was able to sneak into the slate temple where Aknadine was located, avoiding the heavy patrolling troops in the palace, and it was precisely because of this ability that Dilbondor was able to escape the deadly attacks of Osiris repeatedly during the pursuit just now.

He lowered his head, glancing at the frightened or curious eyes of the street, his back shuddered, and his right hand was quickly raised to cover his face.

A few wisps of crimson liquid oozed from between his fingers.

He's hurt.

In order to get rid of Osiris's lock on Diarbondo, Tapirian just ordered Dilbondo to attack the civilians below, and it was at that time that the game's wound fell - he ordered Osiris's body to cross his body as a shield and eat all the energy cannonballs of the elven beast raw, his soul suffered a lot of shock, and after that, Osiris's also lost the lock on Diarbondo.

(After getting the Wheel of Wisdom, Tapir's soul was at least doubled, and Dilbondo's strength was also enhanced, although it was not as good as the phantom beast on my side in terms of physical limitations, but its attack was actually increased to the level of enough to hurt Osiris.) ）

(And it also seems to be able to steal the moves of defeated enemies, and those few energy bullets just now are undoubtedly the skills of the black magician.) ）

(Now, neither he nor Dilbondo's trail is under his control, if he is attacked from the darkness and eats the spiral waves...... ）

（…… The situation is really bad enough. ）

With no trace of Dilbondor to be found, Osiris is useless no matter how powerful it is, but the elven beasts that lurk in the shadows can sneak up on it at any time...... The game is now in a dilemma.

(Pharaoh!) Seth's voice rang in his ears suddenly.

"Seth?" Hearing the voice of his subordinate priest, the game looked up in surprise, thinking that it was the reinforcements of the priesthood who had arrived.

(The subordinate is now talking to you, a monster who can manipulate voices, the sound girl...... Don't worry, I, along with the other three moving priests, are on the other side of the city, not too far from where you are. ）

A translucent humanoid monster floated silently to the game's side and nodded at him.

It was a female monster with brown-red hair, dressed in an elegant lilac wrap dress, and holding a strange scythe with a swollen end, and it seemed that it was the monster that Setter was talking about.

(Is the situation okay on your end...... Pharaoh? ）

"Reluctantly...... Be strong. Some vigilance drove the white horse under the crotch to turn around, and a wry smile appeared on the corner of the game's mouth, "The enemy's strength has improved a lot...... I got a little hurt. ”

"Listen, Seth." He didn't wait for any reaction from there, and immediately sent his instructions over, "You guys came just in time, I have a way to lure the elven beast out." ”

"However, it requires your cooperation......

"Game!" On another street in the city, Li Bai looked at the watch game in front of him, and his hands were pressed on his shoulders, looking very dignified.

"Do you believe me?"

"Of course!" The game only hesitated slightly, and then replied to her with a bright smile without hesitation, "And white...... You've been side by side for so long, we're partners! ”

"Good." After a few breaths, the white-haired girl turned her head to look at Bobasha, Honda, and Apricot, "From now on, you act with me." ”

"The rest, go back to the main gate of the palace."

"No way!"

"What nonsense are you talking about?"

Bobasha didn't react, but the other two were extremely fierce, saying that they didn't agree with the girl's plan.

"You're still having a fever, what can you do with this unsteady body?" Apricot walked up to the girl excitedly, and reached out to take her hand, "If you want to act, act together, and if you want to go back to the palace, go back together!" ”

"Even if I have a fever, I'm much stronger than you ordinary people who don't have any abilities." As soon as Li Bai raised her hand, the bright arc short sword blocked Xingzi's arm, she forcibly endured the guilt in her heart, and turned her head not to look at the shocked expression on the latter's face.

"Sorry...... The next action is too important for us to get 'him' back safely - and too dangerous for me to let you follow. ”

It wasn't a lie, what she was going to do next was dangerous.

In the original story, Dark Game and Seth will team up to set a trap for the elven beast, using the empty door of Osiris as bait to lure Diarbondor to attack, and Seth will drive his elf Duos to kill it with the strongest trick at the moment of Diarbondo's attack!

Sounds beautiful...... But there was one thing that both of them had forgotten, and that was that Tapiri now also held a thousand-year-old artifact, and he also had the power to summon monsters from the Slate Temple. Not only will this plan not succeed, but it will completely destroy the life of Osiris, and Dilbondor has the ability to devour the power of elves or monsters that have slain, and the power of the god of the sky will be stolen in an instant. And then...... When the pharaoh's soul was desperately exhausted and on the verge of death, another game from the present world arrived, and they once again shared their souls, and the dark game once again had power, and he used the abundant soul of the re-transformed as a guide to call out the strongest of the three phantom gods, the winged dragon of the sun god, and relied on the supreme power of the immortal bird to burn Dilbondo to the ground.

On the surface it looks like it will end there, but it is not.

Just when everyone thought that the strong enemy had fallen and could take a big breath, the control of the dark priest came, and the huge, terrifying power retraced the time to before the two games had not been in contact with each other, losing the replenishment of the twin souls, and the dark game fell off the cliff at the last moment of soul exhaustion, officially starting the life-and-death struggle with the king of thieves.

…… This is the future that is about to happen now, as depicted in the original book.

Li Bai's purpose can be described as bold - she intends to change the fate of the Sky Dragon's death from the beginning.

(The power of the Great Dark Priest was not born by himself, but was bestowed by the Great Evil God of Darkness, so it is impossible for him to go back in time so easily.) ）

(If you save the Sky Dragon and then kill Dilbondo...... I don't believe he can perform 2 time rewinds! ）

Forcing the others not to follow, the white-haired girl began to emit a faint white light, and under everyone's ghostly gaze, her feet actually slowly left the ground.

"I'm running out of time." She lifted the watch game up, "Hold on to my hand!" ”

"Huh? Hey!??? "The game is not heavy...... What's more, he was weirdly nearly a head shorter than the dark game, and he was easily taken away from the surface by Li Bai and flew towards the other end of the city.

In mid-air, he raised his eyes to look at the white-haired girl in front of him, and found that the white light escaping from her body became stronger and stronger, and there was a feeling that he had seen it somewhere, under the white light, the pair of red eyes appeared more and more eye-catching and vivid, like two crystal clear agate.

"White? What are we going to do here? The flight didn't last long, and the game after landing was completely oblivious to the girl's strange behavior - he didn't even know the way.

"Game ......" Li Bai popped his head out of the corner and saw the person riding on the white horse as he wished, "Everything I say next is very important, you must strictly follow what I say...... Can you do it? ”

"You have to do it!" Some domineering blocked the other party's questions, and the girl probed out again to take a look.

"Listen up...... I'll go out later and help him take out the monster that lurks in the dark, but that probably won't be the end of it...... Listen to me! Don't look at him! ”

"Uh...... Be! ”

"After that, it's likely that something you wouldn't think of will happen, and time will probably go back to the stage where we speak now, when we are likely to be attacked—so as soon as you find yourself standing here facing me again, listening to me say this to you for the second time, you must run away and see him...... Your partner, you don't need to be restricted at that time, rush over and help him! ”

"Help...... Help? Suddenly being explained a lot of things with such a strict attitude, a trace of confusion flashed on the game's face, "Can ...... How can I help him? ”

"And, what about you? You say you're going to be attacked? Wouldn't you be dangerous? ”

"......" Li Bai didn't know what to say at the moment, she wanted to reprimand the other party and reprimand him for his indecision, but what she finally said was another paragraph.

"Rest assured."

"As long as you don't have a problem with him...... No matter how great the danger I suffered, I was able to recover in the end. ”

"Really?" The game still looks worried.

"Of course." The girl smiled slightly, she glanced up at the night sky, and by the faint moonlight, she saw that Osiris had stretched out his massive body hundreds of meters long - their plan had already begun to be implemented.

"I'm leaving." She swooped out, then snapped back and took the millennium brick that the game had hung around her neck.

"Lend me this!"

The game may have been swayed by this series of events, and did not have any doubts about her taking her most cherished treasure.

He felt like a dream. He saw the girl slap his partner after running out, her illness seemed to have healed in this time, and he didn't see any weakness at all, and he saw another one with wide eyes, and saw him leaning down to talk to the girl...... Then he saw a sight that he would never forget for the rest of his life.

It was like a reenactment of the last quarterfinals of the duel city - the hands of the two were clasped tightly, and the light on the white-haired girl was getting bigger and bigger! Her hair fluttered in the air, growing bigger and longer, her bones began to bend and deform, and finally turned into a white-feathered dragon that emitted a strong white light!

Dragon of Judgment!

The appearance of this dragon of light is as if a sun has been placed out of thin air in the night sky! Intense, dazzling white light emanated everywhere around it, and the darkness and shadows retreated under the invasion of light, and the originally dark night sky was actually imprinted like day!

Losing the dark barrier, the abominable figure of Dilbondor was immediately revealed, and in just an instant, two thick pillars of light, one orange and one white, hit it fiercely, one from Osiris and the Dragon of Judgment, respectively, followed by a humanoid monster wrapped in bright silver cuticle from the city below, and the snow-bright long knife wrapped in white light in its hand shot out, straight through the elven beast in the center of the impact!

(Okay...... It's amazing...... ）

The game hides in the corner, dumbfounded to watch.

(That's what Bai is talking about?) ）

(The monster hiding in the darkness has been defeated, is it over......?) ）

“…… Listen to me! Don't look at him! ”

Qing Yue, and a slightly glutinous voice pulled him back to reality.

(What's going on......? ）

The feeling of heaviness in his neck told him that the thousand-year-old bricks were still hanging there.

"After that, it's likely that something you wouldn't think of will arise......"

(Happened...... What the? ）

The girl with the long snow-white curly hair was still standing in front of him, speaking to him with a stern expression, but he no longer had the heart to listen carefully to every word that came out of her mouth, his heart was completely filled with fear, and his whole body seemed to be nailed to the ground, completely unable to move.

“…… It is likely that time will go back and again to the stage where we are speaking now, when we are likely to be attacked......"

(Time...... Is it really coming back!? ）

“…… So as soon as you find yourself standing here facing me again, listening to me say these things to you a second time, you must flee at once......"

Flee immediately......

Flee immediately.

Immediately--escape!!!!

An electric current rushed from the game's tail vertebrae into his brain, causing his scalp to go numb, and his whole body was paralyzed by the shock...... But he's finally able to move! After feeling this, he quickly turned around and ran out of this dark alley at lightning speed.

"See him...... Your ......" Li Bai's words were almost finished, and she was slightly stunned when she saw the game escape from the dark alley like a desperate game, and then her eyes widened suddenly, her pupils contracted rapidly, and at the same time, she quickly turned around and planned to retreat.

But it was too late.

A powerful palm reached out from the darkness behind her, holding her delicate neck just as she finished turning.

The power of this palm is so great, no matter how much the girl struggles, she can't get rid of its control, she tries to break it with her hand, she can't break it, and tries to kick the owner of the palm with her legs, but every qiē seems to be useless - there is a hazy darkness in front of her, this arm seems to grow out of thin air, her feet kick several times, and all she touches is air without any substance.

A strong feeling of suffocation hits......

In the last moments before falling into darkness, she used all her strength to conjure up the sword of Dagula, judging the position of the opponent's head in the direction of Guò's outstretched arm, and flung it out.

……

In the far west, in a city with a very different style, Far from Tong Shino, Yucheng Juyo is sitting on a balcony with his elf companion basking in the sun while playing a game called "storytelling".

From a younger age, he showed a completely different ability from ordinary people - the children who played card duels with him would always faint inexplicably, and over time, both adults and children around him were full of fear of him.

Toyo himself was completely unaware of this, and although he could sense that the people around him were treating him strangely except for his parents, he didn't know why it was - all his memories of the incident had been artificially washed away.

Needless to say, it was a decision made by his parents, because the ten generations at that time were hit too hard...... Fearing that a child of a few years old would not be able to bear such a burden, they finally made up their minds a few months ago to move out of Tong Shino and to this completely unfamiliar city, intending to start a new life here with ten generations.

The dim sunlight passed through the dense foliage and through the glass on the balcony before it was projected onto the two men (?). The body is mottled.

"Go on! Why did it stop at the critical moment...... It feels terrible! ”

A few months have passed, and ten generations have grown a little taller, but it can't change the fact that he is still a child.

When you are a child, you like to listen to stories.

The lion wizard lay across from him...... On the mat, it looks a little invigorating.

"......" because the facial features are crowded into a flat face, others can't see its facial expression.

If it doesn't want to, then no one can know what it's thinking.

"Are you really sure you want to keep listening?"

"Ten generations."

"Of course!" The boy stole him as he should, "Continuing what you just said...... Hey, where did you just go? Isn't it...... The girl named Skeline is going to find her lost memories? ”

"Huh...... There are no lost memories at all. A sneer came out of its nostrils, and the strange creature shook its head.

"It belongs to Skyline Phil, the memory of 'Skylight Flame', and it only ended on her childhood, that is, on her fourth birthday."

“…… You mean, she died when she was 4 years old? "Ten generations grew up with mouths, and their eyes were full of disbelief.

He began to wonder if the lion with a bad personality had deliberately made up such a nonsensical ending to deceive him.

"I didn't lie to you." The lion wizard hung his head - for some reason, Juyo felt endless melancholy from his words.

It's like a history buff who has spent three days and three nights studying the rise and fall of an empire finally raises his head from the vast amount of historical materials, takes off his glasses, and then looks at the void with his eyes and lets out a soft sigh.

"We all have to start from 3,000 years ago......"
