36. Broken
Huo Sui took out a palm-sized black box from his robe, which was the soul bead of the Lich King that Isaac had given him when he left in the previous world.
The black box was covered with a dense magic array, and Huo Sui pressed the magic array on it and burned it repeatedly, until a burst of golden light appeared, and the seal of the box had disappeared.
Suddenly, a cold aura instantly dispersed around.
In an instant, at a speed visible to the naked eye, the ground began to emit a crisp sound of freezing, and the surrounding grass and trees were instantly frozen.
Inside was a dark blue bead, only the size of a thumb cap, but it contained an amazing amount of energy.
At this time, the sky was dark, and the night was about to fall, and the location here was remote, so Huo Sui did not bother to hide the abnormalities around.
The energy contained in the orb is enough to directly evolve the lowest undead into lichs. The undead are also divided into levels, the lowest being the skeletons that do not have any self-consciousness and only obey the higher undead, and as the more souls are devoured, they evolve again into skeletons with weak consciousness. As the level increases, the more you can slowly regain your former appearance, a lich that looks indistinguishable from a human.
It's just that no matter how similar the undead are to humans, because they have lost the compassion and sympathy of human beings, the cruelty and bloodlust in their bones cannot be changed.
It's nature.
Just like a cat does not feel sympathy for the pain of suffocation of a fish due to lack of water, and gives up using fish as food.
Because Huo Sui's body was directly sent to this parallel world by Ah Shi, his own strength was enough to crush the current Ya Xiu.
But for the current Asher, pushing it hard will only be counterproductive. Therefore, Huo Sui planned to restore it to its original appearance.
Otherwise, this person will only use all means to devour the soul of mankind in order to strengthen himself. Huo Sui didn't know exactly how he became like this, but he only knew that he had undergone countless realizations and transformations before he became the body of the lich he is today. And the rebellious act of transforming the Terrans into lichs is something that only Kyle can do.
Huo Sui would not sympathize with Asher's current situation, but he could not look down on Kyle's actions.
After all, she is just a bystander.
In his last failed mission, Asher was paranoid, but he had not yet reached true distortion.
And the one in front of him, both physically and mentally, has been completely broken.
Huo Sui walked up to Ashur with the soul bead and half-squatted down, unaware of the rotten and disgusting rancid smell on his body, and then raised his hand to push the soul bead into his mouth.
"Absorb the energy inside, and we'll leave here as soon as it's dawn." After Huo Sui finished speaking, he sat down opposite him to rest.
In a short period of time, Asher couldn't fully use the energy of the orb for his own use, but it was enough for him to get the abilities that the lich should have before dawn.
She didn't know if there was an expiration date for this mission, although the lifespan of the elves was three thousand years, but the lifespan of the undead was unlimited. And Asher wants to devour more souls, and even wants to devour himself in this time and space, and then sacrifice blood to the creatures of this world.
She'll stop all of this.
Ya Xiu knew how ugly and disgusting he was now, and he couldn't help but maliciously speculate about the calm truth when Huo Sui approached without changing his face.
Once upon a time, he was a noble Son of Light, and the moment he was abandoned by the Temple of Light, he was nothing, nothing. Therefore, it can be treated casually, humiliated at will, and used as a bargaining chip.
Hehe, it's just a pity that in the end, the Pope's calculations were all in vain.
In this world, everything will betray you, but the strength in your hands belongs to you and is the most loyal.
For this reason, even if he is unscrupulous, he must stand on the highest place.
Then, destroy this absurd and ridiculous world.
Nothingness is due to nothingness.
Half of Ashur's face was exposed with oozing white bones, and the hollow dark eye sockets were dancing with faint blue flames, and the other half of his face was exposed by the gouged out eye sockets, which looked particularly eerie and terrifying in the moonlight.
As the energy of the soul bead was absorbed by him, his body could gradually move with his thoughts. He looked at the dark elf sitting with his sword in hand and resting with his eyes closed, and the blue flames in his eyes pulsed faster. He is not the opponent of this dark elf for the time being, but as long as he absorbs all the energy in this soul bead, he will no longer be afraid of this dark elf.
The wind in the night gradually became colder, but Huo Sui did not fall asleep. She didn't feel at ease about the cold killing intent on Ashur's body, as long as she didn't let Ashur run out of her sight, she wouldn't let him go on the previous path in her lifetime.
No matter what means are used.
Ashur absorbed the energy in the soul bead, and as the night passed, the other half of his body began to be covered with flesh and blood, and the pale bones of his hands became slender hands like those of others.
The morning light was faint, and a layer of fish belly white floated in the sky, and Huo Sui opened his eyes.
Opposite her, Ashur sat against the bridge pier in a black robe, his originally terrifying face had regained his handsome appearance, and his face was pale without a trace of blood, like a vampire walking in the dark. The long pale blonde hair hung down on his chest, and the dark blue eyes looked at Huo Sui in a dead silence and gloom. His thin lips were slightly open, and his voice had a strange hoarseness and special rhythm, like a demon chanting a psalm that belongs to hell alone.
"Sue me your name"
"Sui Hollandier."
With Hollandier, the pronunciation of these words went through Ashur's lips and tongue. He'll remember, this dark elf who helped him.
If you can devour her soul, you must be able to become stronger, right?
Huo Sui stood up and stepped forward, his hand moved slightly, and the soul bead on Yashu's body returned to her hand again. Sealing the soul bead again, Huo Sui raised his eyes to look at him and said, "Follow me." ”
Asher's gaze fell on the black box in her hand, but quickly disappeared the darkness in his eyes
It's not time yet.
Huo Sui saw him follow and led him to the remote path.
Ya Xiu's whole body was covered in a black robe, his wide hat covered half of his face, only a few strands of pale blonde long hair were exposed, his thin lips were pale and his chin was somewhat sickly on the white ground, and he followed Huo Sui unhurriedly.
It's not just fate, it's fate that's playing a joke. When Huo Sui and Ya Xiu crossed the path, they saw an adventure team from a distance.
And among those people, Huo Sui happened to know three.
Kyle, who has not traveled to this world for a long time from modern times, Lilith, a blonde swordswoman, and Jerome, the orc prince who wields a battle axe.
The moment Asher saw Kyle, a thick aura of darkness suddenly erupted from his body, and the Death Scythe instantly condensed at his side.
"Kyle" Ashur's voice was weirdly sharp, and the hatred in his eyes was almost crazy, but soon, Ashur seemed to react, "No, Kyle has already obtained the godhead of the God of Light, and he shouldn't be here" Immediately after, Ashur hid his face and laughed: "Hehehahaha, it turns out that I actually went back to the past"
Huo Sui had an indescribable feeling in his heart, and he only felt that things were more troublesome.
Asher's voice was gloomy with pleasure: "Since that's the case, then I should be here in this plane, right?" ”
Huo Sui stopped in front of Ya Xiu and said in a cold voice: "It's time to go." ”
"I'll go with you, but I'm going to say hello to the old man now, after all, I miss him very much, hehehe" Ashur's thin lips under his hood curved in a strange cold arc, "I really didn't expect it"
Since you created this world, then I will destroy it for you.
Let you be this witness
What do you think?
Ashur bypassed Huo Sui and walked towards the people in the distance, and at this time, those people also noticed the movement here, and they all held their respective weapons in their hands. It's just that the killing intent on Ashur's body is too heavy, and the extremely dangerous aura on his body makes Kyle and the others can't help but tingle their scalps. Lilith stood at the front with a big sword in her hand, her blue eyes looking at the black-robed man vigilantly.
Huo Sui, who was being walked around by Yaxiu, was expressionless, his hand clenched the hilt of the sword, and his dark eyes narrowed. Immediately after, Huo Sui slashed behind Ashur without hesitation with the sword in his hand.
Ashur sensed the danger behind him, and narrowly avoided it, while the dark elf with the great sword in his hand had once again stood in front of him, looking at him with a blank face.
"Come with me."
Ashur's thin lips curled into a cold arc: "I'll go and say hello to the old man"
"Don't make me repeat it again." Huo Sui's voice became even colder, the coercion belonging to the Holy Swordsman on his body was not half hidden, and his awe-inspiring black eyes looked at Ya Xiu with a strong sense of warning.
Yashu's pale hand stretched out from the sleeve of his black robe, holding the snow-white sword body against his chest, raising his head to look at Huo Sui, and the tone of his voice had a strange rhythm: "Dark Elf, do you know him?" ”
Huo Sui didn't answer his words, just his hand, and the sword body stabbed through his body, and there was a soft click, which was the sound of bones breaking.
"Your sword is a little familiar," Asher didn't feel the pain, and his gaze fell on the hilt of the sword that was tattooed with elven characters. After a while, he laughed gloomily, "Why is his sword in your hand?" ”
