Chapter 1 The Gate of Desire Section 87 Deadly Stage Play
On the twentieth day of December in the depths of winter of the 51420 year of the Taiyi calendar, when the vast white river visited the Demon Capital and the Gate of Desire again, the merchant fleet of the Ziyunlan Chamber of Commerce returned with a full load of goods, and at this time, the owner of the Ziyunlan Chamber of Commerce had been replaced by Ike Abrot.
At the same time, a lawsuit over the succession of property shocked the whole Desire, and after a protracted war of words and games, the wealth brought back by the merchant fleet that originally belonged to Kermit Abrot was divided, one-third of which belonged to the new head of the Ablot family, Ike Abrot, and the remaining two-thirds to Antneyetta, a maiden of the Night Clan, who had left the family.
It didn't end there, and after a bizarre and dizzying valuation and compensation, all the wealth that should have belonged to Miss Antneyetta was used to pay off the debt, and all the wealth fell into the name of Candida, the moneylender. But the huge debt has still not been paid off, and there are still 200,000 holy crystals left to be repaid.
In desperation, Miss Antenieta, who was helpless, secretly offered her father's relics, a broken scroll of the Vortex Ocean, to Candida as collateral, and at the same time loaned him 300,000 holy crystals in order to revive the family business.
Two days later, Mademoiselle Antenieta, with an old servant, a few retinues, and dozens of shipbuilders, quietly left the Gate of Desire. She takes them to Stormland, where Miss Antenieetta wants to rebuild a shipyard, the Kermit Shipyard, in the middle of nowhere. She wants to continue her father's business and the glory that belongs only to the shipbuilder Kmir Abrot.
On the evening of the day that Antenieetta left the Gate of Desire, Unqi and Moussa each flew higher and higher in the night with a baby star whale.
Adult star whales can reach five hundred meters in length, and after half a year of growth, these two star whale cubs have grown close to twenty meters in length, and their huge appetite is like a bottomless pit, almost going bankrupt to eat the Night Tribe.
When the night was completely dark, the two baby star whales had already flown to the sky. The two baby star whales frolicked and hovered in the sky, unable to reach the sky or the ground, completely out of the monitoring range of the various forces in the Demon Capital Desire.
Unqi shouted to Musa: "Let's talk, will you sit down on my side?"
Moses asked rhetorically: "Why didn't you come to me?"
Unqi smiled wryly and said, "My body is not very flexible, I don't want to fall into a meatloaf." You're flying here, aren't you going to have it?"
Musa gave Unchi a blank look, transformed into a gray nightingale, and landed on his shoulder.
Unqi salivated and said, "Brother Musa, the sky is high and the clouds are light, the wind is refreshing, can you sing a song for me on such a beautiful night?"
The nightingale of Mossa's incarnation pecked at Uenchi's ear and said angrily: "Are you mistaken? ”
Unqi laughed, "Well, I was mistaken. Looking down from here, the Crystal of Desire is still as dazzling as it gets. I remember you told me that you wanted to fly closer and see it. Maybe I can take you down those spiral staircases all the way to the very top of the Crystal of Desire. There, the view must be extraordinary. ”
Mousa said, "You know, I don't envy that. ”
Wu Enqi nodded and sighed, "Since you don't envy it, after the stage play of Boss Hai is over, if they can still allow me to leave alive." I want Hot Springs Valley as my reward, shall we take the tribe there to rebuild our home?"
Surprised, Mosa asked, "Don't you like the Holy Capital of Desire?"
"Of course I do, but in this huge metropolis, my desires are also boiling," Unchi said. I am no longer who I once was, and my body is infused with the impetuousness, fantasies, and desires of this demonic capital. Desire drives me, and let me turn me into a flying dragon, an indifferent powerhouse. ”
Unch paused and continued, "My father is brave, and I am kind. Because the Son is not like the Father, he was exceedingly disappointed in me. However, every successful person is a destroyer. Destroying vested interests, destroying the lives of others, destroying the existing order, destroying old things, and destroying beauty and conscience. Otherwise, it is a woman's kindness, and she can only be a victim in the struggle for power. ”
Unqi looked at the nightingale on his shoulder and asked softly, "If you can choose for me, what do you want me to do?"
Time passed in a hurry, and in a blink of an eye, it was December 31, 51420 of the Taiyi calendar.
This day is destined to be extraordinary. The sky was just dawning, and the eastern nineteenth district of the Demon Capital of Desire, was crowded with hundreds of thousands of devout pilgrims. Everything is ready in the amphitheater, and all the Night Clan girls who participate in the show are in place.
The patriarch Mousa hovered backstage with his hands clasped together, nervous and apprehensive as he organized a show of this magnitude for the first time. Unqi and Yanayi followed Moussa's side left and right, and the two of them were also new hands, so a tense atmosphere enveloped the entire backstage.
It was only ten minutes before the start of "Dragon Slaying Winter", and the open-air theater was already full of invited guests.
In order to stage the burlesque "Winter of Dragon Slaying", the amphitheater in the East 19th District specially built a "T" shaped wide stage so that the sea boss can fully display his majestic posture. Underneath the stage are various traps and secret doors, long passages and full warehouses, so the sets and props for the show are hidden in the warehouses.
The auditorium is divided into three seats, with a private room for special guests on the opposite side of the stage, a general seat on the left side of the stage, and a luxury seat on the right side of the stage. At this time, all the seats were filled with spectators, and even the gray sky was full of flying boats of various sizes, and some uninvited dignitaries could only watch the performance on the stage from afar.
In the private room of the special guests, the fifth demon king, Fuma Bodi, and his mistress, Countess Benita Benedict, have already arrived. The Demon Capital of Desire is the territory of the Fifth Demon King, and he naturally wants to do his best to greet all the distinguished guests warmly.
There were quite a few of the most expensive guests, such as Nagrad, the king of the Void Illusion, Momo, the princess of the Styx, Hildrik, the king of the eight-armed madman, Akleseye, the king of the fire demons, and the king of the Chaos Dragon, Tunmi Sanmuza, all of whom had found their place in the private room.
Three minutes before the show, the Holy Emperor Tak Eberon arrived with his Knights Templar. Amid the cheers of the crowd, the Holy Emperor walked into the private room opposite the stage with a majestic holy light. In order not to disappoint the pilgrims, the private rooms have no roofs, only openwork fences, so that the warm and warm light of the Holy Light illuminates the sky and the amphitheater.
When the performance was about to start, another group of uninvited guests came to the Grand Theater.
The leader was a man with fiery red hair, a figure of three meters tall, and a thousand spiritual arms behind him formed a pair of unique wings of a thousand arms. Needless to say, he is the first king of the Demon King, the follower of the Holy Spirit, the thousand-armed demon spirit Sainz.
At Sainz's side, there is a woman in a cloak of gray feathers, she is an elf, a realm god of the phantom realm, she has a perfect life, eternal youth, a perfect will, and extreme beauty. Her name is Tsui, and she is the spirit of prayer and the third king of the demon race.
Ignoring the kings and emperors in the private room, Sainz and Hui led a dozen dragons in human form into the stands on the left side of the stage and sat on the ground, where a group of pilgrims soon gathered around them, and they seemed to have become one with them in a matter of moments.
Seeing this, Unqi glanced coldly at the Holy Emperor Tak Eberon in the private room.
The saint walks in the world, one year and the residence becomes a gathering, two years into a city, three years into Chengdu. Because they are virtuous in all directions, it is the desire of the people, so they are all in the heart. If this is the criterion, the Holy Emperor Tak Eberon has a holy name, how can there be a saint?
At this point, all the guests invited by the sea king have arrived, and the curtain has been slowly pulled on the wide stage. With the sound of soothing music, a ShadowClan girl wearing a white-feathered female hat stepped out of the shadows, she was quiet and beautiful, but her complexion was bleak, and there was a hint of sadness between her eyebrows.
ShadowClan girl Ina opened with a mournful voice: "There is an evil dragon entrenched in the Holy Capital of Desire, and its name is Hydia. In the harsh winter when the thirteen suns were empty, the holy capital was hungry and cold, but Haidia's cave was full of wine and meat. The saints in the holy capital complained, but Hydia continued to go on a rampage. Behold, he is coming. ”
At the protruding end of the "T" shaped stage, many night girls dressed as poor people ran out of the dark passages under the stage. They shouted as they ran: "Run, the Sea Overlord has come to collect the land money!"
Before they could finish speaking, with a high-pitched dragon groan, an obese blue dragon jumped out from under the stage. The blue dragon patted her belly full of fat and took a big step forward, stomping a slow-running Night Clan girl into mud with a single kick.
The opening scene of "Dragon Slaying Winter" was not very attractive, but with this foot, the amphitheater was silent inside and outside, and all eyes were fixed on the soles of the blue dragon Hydia.
The blue dragon pinched its big paw and looked around with extremely innocent eyes, as if to say, "I didn't mean to." This Uncle Long rubbed his feet on the stage and continued to staggered forward.
The Eighth Demon King, Hildrick, who was sitting in the private room, asked the Tenth Demon King Akleseyeh beside him, "Am I right? ”
The Tenth Demon King, Aklesheye, muttered, "Hmm...... This must be a trick, under the stage...... There may be secret doors. ”
The Eighth Demon King, Hilderick, looked at the flat stage suspiciously, shrugged his shoulders and said, "Their special effects are good, and the blood stains on the ground are quite real." ”
The Eighth Demon King was only suspicious, but there were already tidal waves of boos and screams in the stands.
The old blue dragon Hydia heard the screams of the audience, and was furious, and the dragon qi carried Long Wei to instantly calm the audience. The audience members who had already stood up in the amphitheater all sat down with their legs weakened. Because of the dragon qi and dragon power, even the music came to an abrupt end.
Nina, the shadow demon in charge of the emergency report, hurriedly flashed out of the shadows, and she repeatedly reiterated in an unquestionable tone that everything on the stage was arranged by the script, not an accident.
After listening to Nina's explanation, the audience in the amphitheater finally fell silent. In fact, even if they didn't want to be quiet, even the demon king didn't dare to make a noise, how could ordinary demons dare to make a sound. As a result, the deadly farce "Winter of Dragon Slaying" in the Seaview Theater will continue to be staged.
