Chapter 12: An Ominous Night (I)

The main reason for writing a digression here is to apologize to readers who haven't learned about the original book, because I will skip many plots of the Egyptian chapter, and I will not even describe the classic scenes of the final battle of the king and the table game.

Because this is no longer the original book, its protagonist is not a Muto game.

――――――――――――――――――――

When the sky was dark, the game stood on the high platform of the palace, looking at the stone slab presented by the guards, and his face was grim.

Hamat is dead.

Died in the Aknamkano Mausoleum.

Killed by tapirs.

The carving on it was the black magician he had seen before in that chaotic battle. In order to put an end to the evil thoughts caused by the liberation of the seal on the wisdom wheel, at the last moment, he gave up his human body and became one with his spirit beast, and the power of the "black magician" skyrocketed, and he once reached the level that could suppress Dilbondo.

But...... In many cases, light has power, but after all, it is still too fragile.

He died on a trap in the mausoleum...... The King of Thieves, who has the ability to pierce walls, unscrupulously opens all the traps at the last moment.

"Pharaoh." Simon called to him softly, "I have sent someone to investigate carefully, the tomb of the former king was artificially sealed before dawn...... Completely sealed. ā€

"So, the remains of Priest Mahat...... I'm afraid it won't be possible to remove ...... from the mausoleum."

"You don't have to move out." The game prevents him from continuing.

"But ......"

"He's done enough for the royal family...... Simon, he fought to the death for me and for my father. The game's eyes remained unblinking, as if they were glued to the slate.

"Such a person...... Isn't it worthy of being buried in the royal family's mausoleum? ā€

The order to seal the mausoleum was given by Mahatt himself, and the execution time was specifically requested after he himself entered the mausoleum.

I am afraid that he is the keenest of the seven artifacts of the Wisdom Wheel who sensed the approaching danger and was forced to carry out this method of breaking the cauldron.

"Mahat......" fingers lightly touched the slate in front of him, and the game didn't know what the feeling was hovering in his heart at the moment.

Wrath? Sadness?

And maybe remorse and ...... Marvel?

Be...... He now finally understood what the inexplicable familiarity he felt when he saw this man.

The carvings on the stone slab were much clearer than the entities he had seen before, and the most obvious was the part of the face under the armor of the magician, no longer a hazy black mist, but a resolute face.

A face he had seen a long time ago, the face of the most loyal subordinate who had helped him defeat countless powerful enemies, the face of the black magician who belonged to the monster of the magic envoy clan of LV7.

It turns out that this is the cause.

It turns out that it is the fruit.

The seeds of their encounter had been planted three thousand years earlier, but unfortunately, he hadn't discovered it earlier.

"Although I know that I have lost the qualification to change a qiē, this feeling of being at the mercy of a pawn...... It's really unpleasant. ā€

"Simon." He suddenly accentuated his tone, "Although I don't want to admit it, Tapir Liang should have already obtained the Wisdom Wheel, let the rest of the priests be careful." ā€

"He said that his target was an artifact. Sure...... Will find a chance to come back. ā€

"Pharaoh?" Hearing his reminder, Simon immediately abandoned all low feelings, "You mean...... Will Tapiri continue to attack and kill the lone priest today!? ā€

Just after the death of a priest, one can imagine the palace, no, it should be said that the whole city will be under martial law for a long time, and the soldiers will patrol several times more than usual, and in such a situation, as the culprit, I don't think about how to save my tracks and my life...... Do you want to go further?

"That's not an enemy that can be judged by common sense." The game's voice finally took on a hint of hatred, "I know...... There must be something he hasn't used to hide! ā€

This is completely his hunch, just like predicting the opponent's hidden back hand when playing cards, he and the thief king Tapir Liang have indeed only met once, but he and the current tapir have really played a game! If he is really a continuation of the past like himself, then it will never be wrong to use him as a template to judge the enemy at this moment!

ā€œā€¦ā€¦ Be sure to inform them. The game takes a deep breath to regain its composure.

"The whole city is investigating suspicious elements, and I give you permission to use some unconventional means."

Judging from the resources at this stage, this is already his maximum energy.

There is only one enemy, and it is not difficult to hide it deliberately, and he is completely in the light - like being targeted by a sniper, he can block it for a while but not for a lifetime, which is why he will be close to losing control in that moment.

It feels really bad...... And to make matters worse, he doesn't have a second person to share them with.

God is the only being who can resist Dil Bondo head-on, and in this there is no one to help him.

Alone in the world of his own memory, he finally felt the loneliness that penetrated his soul at this moment.

(Partner...... White, and everyone...... )

A hundred meters above the palace was a man suspended in the air.

Tapir ...... Of course, it was the tapir in the present world, and after the girl opened the door to the world of memory, he naturally followed and infiltrated here.

He'd been staring at the game on the platform for a while, but he still hadn't looked away.

ā€œā€¦ā€¦ You're really trying. ā€

"When you try and find that you can't change anything......"

"At that point, maybe we can sit down and talk openly and honestly."

……

Night.

Li Bai and his party walked slowly around the tall walls of the palace, looking listless and without much strength.

They had come full circle, but they were still blocked by the wall, and they couldn't get in.

"I know there's another game in there...... Damn, why can't you get in! "During the break, Honda couldn't help but lie on the ground.

He was probably the most impatient of the group, first wandering around the labyrinth, and now he was blocked outside the palace and was not allowed to enter...... His patience was almost at its limit.

"It should be that the world is rejecting us outsiders." The game walked under the wall, reached out against the wall, and shook his head - sure enough, he couldn't get in.

The tall walls are not like other people and scenes, they can pass through without hindrance, his hands can touch the wall, and he can feel the unique texture of the stone, which means that they will be blocked by the wall just like everyone else in this world.

"Whew......" Kyoko gasped, she was also very tired, and she wanted to lie down directly like Honda, but she was not a boy after all, so she couldn't be so casual.

"How?" She sat next to Li Bai and asked the white-haired girl, "Do you have any good ideas?" ā€

The white-haired girl sits in a much more dignified manner...... She spread her long white gauze skirt over her knees and sat on top of it, because there were several layers of white gauze, and it barely hurt to sit like this.

"There is no way, only wait." The white-haired girl slowly spat out a few words from her mouth, then closed her eyes again and began to recuperate.

To be honest, Li Bai's current situation is very bad, every time she speaks, she will only give a brief reply when asked by others, and she will never speak unless necessary.

Emptiness, panic, these are not things that a healthy person should feel.

She seemed to have a fever.

(It's really unscientific...... I've never heard of souls getting sick. )

Unexpectedly, the crow's mouth before the apricot actually appeared, and the girl felt that it was difficult for her to accept this state of affairs.

(It's a critical time at the end of the first episode, and at most one day, the last enemy will appear.) )

(Why do you get sick at such a time...... )

"Why wait?" Kyoko pursed her lips, as if she was dissatisfied with her attitude.

ā€œā€¦ā€¦ Because you can't get in. ā€

"You're kidding me!" Apricot almost choked to death from her own saliva, she raised her index finger and poked Li Bai's waist, "Is it my delusion, you are really wrong...... Are you sick? ā€

It was the first time she had seen a girl so listless.

In the past, Li Bai would not have been able to handle affairs with such a perfunctory attitude no matter what, and it was impossible for her to deteriorate because of the relationship between the battle and the game in the duel city, so the only reason that Apricot could think of was illness.

"Sort of." The girl said, "Head...... Somewhat dizzy. ā€

Li Bai didn't plan to hide her physical discomfort from others, she knew what was going to happen at night - a game of straddle horses would come out of the palace, and the king of thieves would stage an ancient Egyptian version of "Fast and Furious" in the city at night, and at that time, she was not sure if she still had the energy to chase them with the others.

Even if you keep it a secret, it will be easy for others to find out in the future.

"What!?" Apricot exclaimed in a long voice, "Was it really predicted by me before?" Wait a minute...... Can souls get sick too? It's not scientific! ā€

I couldn't be so arbitrary about the soul before, but I was the first to overturn my own point of view at the critical moment......

The girl glared at the apricot with extremely resentful eyes.

The others were attracted by the apricot cry and gathered around, and they also felt incredible after learning about Li Bai's situation.

"This must be a joke!" Honda circled around the girl twice and found that her face was indeed very bad, "If there is a problem with the soul, won't our safety be guaranteed?" Because since you can get sick, it also means ...... It means that it may ......"

"Less in that crow's mouth!" Kyoko angrily cut off the words behind him to prevent him from saying the unlucky word, "I've been complaining from the beginning...... Can't you just say something nice! Honda! ā€

"I'm sorry...... Honda raised his hands in acknowledgment, "I'm so nervous, we worked so hard to get here, and we didn't even see the game side...... Of course, I'll be in a hurry! You can be considerate of me......"

"What Honda said is not without reason." Bobasha waved his hand to stop them from arguing any further, "This operation is not without danger at all...... For us, the soul is an unknown realm, and no one knows how our bodies function at the soul level and what can be harmed...... So no amount of caution is a bad thing. ā€

"However, the soul level already belongs to another world, right? Our current body should be separated from our body in reality? Even if the body suddenly falls ill in reality...... Aren't we going to block out that feeling for a while? The game is the most sober-minded of all, and he spoke out to Bobasha about his doubts.

"Not necessarily." Bobasha disagreed with him, "As I said, the secrets of the soul level are completely unknown to human beings, and there is no such bizarre situation even in the records of our Tomb Guarding Blood Clan...... One of the premises of your argument is that when we leave the body, we are completely cut off from the body, but will we be able to go back in that case? ā€

His rhetorical question was met with a neat silence - almost everyone was startled by what he had said.

"Alright, Bobasha, don't scare them." Li Bai stretched out his hand to support the ground, and stood up a little reluctantly, "My body ...... I know in my heart that I'm not there yet, so you don't have to look like someone is going to hang up. She clapped her hands and bent down to smooth out the folds in her skirt.

"Now is not the time for daze and arguing, we have to move somewhere to the main gate of the palace, if there is any place where we can see him for the first time, it must be the main gate of the palace."

ā€œā€¦ā€¦ There's no way he's going to stay inside all the time and not come out, right? ā€

"Good idea!" The game's eyes lit up, after a few hours of aimless searching, this mention yƬ seems to be particularly reliable, no matter who it is, he will lose patience if he is always blocked from the target, he just looks no different from usual because his personality is more calm than Honda, and the anxiety in his heart is the most out of several people.

After all...... He is the one who has the most stake in the purpose of the high walls.

However, Li Baitong ...... Li Bai, does it really matter if you are like this? He looked at the somewhat weak white-haired girl, and the excitement just now subsided again, and the other party's face was really bad, although it was still fair, but it was not a healthy white, but a sickly pale.

The game vaguely remembers the last time she was seen like this was on the walls of Bekas.

"It's okay, just let the apricots hold it."

"......" walked at the front of the team, and Bobasha turned his head slightly and glanced at Li Bai again.

What he just said was not the ultimate in his guesses, and there were many things that were deliberately omitted that were not said.

It is impossible for the soul to be sick.

It was by no means a fever.
