Chapter 239: Suffering
"So get straight to the point, King of Monsters, what is your purpose?" The Immortal asked, narrowing his eyes.
Then, she immediately waved her hand to cut the space: "You don't need to answer me, I don't care, you talk to him." ”
After saying that, her squinted eyes closed completely, and she didn't care about it.
At the same time, in the slashed space, endless golden light shone out, and there was a figure in the golden light, and the face could not be seen clearly, but just looking at this pomp, you knew that the phantom of the emperor had descended.
It's just a phantom, but Duke Wald immediately got up to salute, but he didn't kneel, as a duke who guards the frontier and has a territory, just facing the phantom, he doesn't need to kneel.
"King of Monsters, you are more and more beyond my expectations, King Bloodline...... I've endured it until now, and I can't control the church for a long time. The Emperor's phantom voice was indifferent, but there was a power that could not be suppressed.
"But I'm not out of control, am I? I think I'm doing a good job of being a demon according to my original plan, isolating myself, not infiltrating the power system of the Empire, being my border governor honestly, annoying everyone, and making an alliance with anyone, don't I? Your Majesty. Lu En said with a smile on his face.
As soon as he said this, Duke Wald's face darkened.
Because he knows that there is probably no result today, the king of monsters is still useful, and the emperor will not let anyone touch him until he is fully used.
When the emperor heard this, he put aside the majesty outside, and couldn't help but say happily: "It's really good, you have always reassured me, even if you collude with high-level vampires, set up boundary monuments without authorization to create de facto independence, and even privately neutralize the secret communication of the Hall of Radiance, bluff the duke's daughter to do things for you, etc., etc., I don't care, you can make the church unable to free up, which means that you have done a good job, and you deserve to be commended, haha!" ”
"Then what does Your Majesty have to reward me?" Lu En hit the snake with the stick, anyway, there are dates and no dates to stab two poles, the emperor has said this, it is better to ask for it directly.
"How about you get back alive today?" The Emperor blinked. Although it is still a phantom of a face that cannot be seen clearly, the action of blinking is extremely clear.
"Thank you, Your Majesty, then I'll go first." Lu En was not pretentious, raised his hand to tear open a portal, pushed Igny in, turned around and left.
The emperor just smiled and watched him leave, and he didn't stop him, as for the immortals, after taking turns to leave, their figures slowly disappeared and disappeared without a trace.
There is no need to use force, then there is no need for her to come forward.
After she disappeared, the Gray Lady emerged, and she was responsible for the arrival and departure of the Immortals, after all, the Immortals themselves can't even fly, and if the Immortals are nuclear warheads, then the Gray Lady is to deliver ballistic missiles, and the combination of the two can truly make there be no dead ends in the empire.
"How's it going?" The Emperor looked at Madame Gray and asked casually.
"Almost." The Grey Lady nodded.
"That's good, after going back this time, try to finish it all at once, you go back first." The Emperor's Phantom stood up and commanded the Gray Lady.
Soon, he looked at Duke Wald.
"Uncle Wald, don't be upset about today's events, it's all for the Empire." The title of Emperor was very close, as the Duke of Wald was indeed his uncle, and he had a little royal blood.
In fact, the nobles of the empire can basically be regarded as a family, they have intermarried with each other for thousands of years, from the royal family to the major dukes, and then the marquis below, the border earl, almost every family intermarries, everyone is related to each other, except for the new nobles, it is almost impossible to have outsiders, but the empire has not had new nobles for thousands of years.
Whether you are a nobleman or not, you have already decided as soon as you are born, and hard work can only determine whether you can be a nobleman's retainer or not.
"What about my daughter?" Duke Wald frowned.
"I promise she'll be fine, after all, she's my sister, isn't she? Don't worry, she'll be back to you soon, but I think she'll grow a lot by then, and you'll be happy. The Emperor's words were vague, and then the phantom vanished.
Duke Wald did not stop it, because there can be hundreds of such phantoms at the same time, the emperor is extremely good at dealing with different things, the empire territory is too large, and there is a lot of information that needs to be processed, and after the death of the Great Mentor, he has been reluctant to delegate the original power of the Great Mentor and set up several institutions to help him deal with it, on the contrary, he took everything on himself in this way.
Duke Wald's eyes were cloudy, but in the end he waved his hand and dismissed the soldiers.
The wife, the Silver Leaf Lord, went to the elves, the elves have many methods, the magic is exquisite, and the daughter should be fine.
He never thought that when he let his daughter go out to relieve his anger, he would be able to recruit two level 10 at the same time, so he wanted to come...... The King of Monsters had been ready to do so from the start.
It's just that...... What is the purpose of the King of Monsters? What's in it for him?
Can't figure it out, don't understand.
What else can it do besides making enemies?
The continent of flames in the sky gradually vanished, and the Fire Djinn Throne returned to Hell, and everything returned to normal, except for the lava lakes and sword marks all over the ground.
And Lu En, at this moment, returned to Ellio.
At that moment, he almost vomited blood, and a sense of weakness filled his body, the feeling of almost omnipotent, soaking in the spring water, recklessly releasing various skills, and filling up all kinds of buffs, receded like a tide.
The emptiness in the body will make people irrepressibly feel lost, and the feeling of omnipotence will disappear completely before they can experience it properly.
It seems that in the blink of an eye, he has become a powerless person.
One didn't stand firmly, but sat directly on the ground, panting incessantly, and even the body of a transcendent creature began to sweat.
It feels so bad to connect with the power of the realm and then forcibly disconnect it.
However, at this time, Igni frowned and looked at Lu En: "Aren't you going to send me back?" ”
Lu Enqiang took a breath, supported his weak body, and looked at the fire giant spirit: "Are you going back?" Aren't you ready to get revenge on the man who poured your water? ”
"If you don't have enough ability, you can't win." The fire giant spirit said simply: "I'm not a fool, you take me over, although you can fight, but you will still let the woman with the sword come over, and the final result is still not beatable." ”
This answer made Lu En a little surprised, the fire djinn is an arrogant and irascible race, if you can't fight, you won't fight, this is not their style.
But immediately, Igni's answer relieved him, and the fire djinn gritted his teeth and said, "So I'm going to go back and increase my strength, win over my allies, and try to get rid of those mortals at once when I come next time!" I don't know the name of the king, will you come? ”
"Come on, I'll definitely come next time." Lu Enle was happy, sure enough, this free thug was not wrong, the memory in his mind was not wrong, and this fire giant spirit was really as careful as a woman.
After making his promise, he immediately built a portal and sent the enraged Igni back, while he lay on the ground, waiting for his weakness to recover.
And it was during this time that Sid finally escaped.
The ghost in the mirror wasn't with her, and the duke's secret guard lured Kara and Crescent away, leaving Sid to escape alone.
Sid was not lightly injured and bounced out of the mirror world, even if nine percent of the anti-shock force was borne by the ghost in the mirror, but the rest was not something she could bear.
She is now level 6, she is indeed considered a powerhouse, and she is indeed a genius, able to advance from level 3 to level 6 in a short period of time.
But the reason is very clear, it is the endless resources of the family, she learns the sword, there is her mother's hand-in-hand teaching for her, lack of understanding, there is a bunch of sword marks engraved with sword intent sent to the front, lack of technology, there are rows and rows of cheats in front of you to look at casually, tired of practice, there is no upper limit of the supply of side-effect potions to restore physical strength, physical growth can not catch up, there will be a bunch of natural treasures to make up for the heritage.
It is not unreasonable for the nobles to enter the country faster and stronger, and for the lower classes who lack resources, the conditions of the nobles are much superior.
She's used to having it herself, just like a modern person is used to drinking water from a water dispenser or a straight pipe, rather than digging a well to fetch water or sediment a river.
So, of course, it will be very uncomfortable when you suddenly lose endless resources.
Walking in the middle of a desert, Sid was dizzy.
Her pretty face was a little tired and painful, her silver hair was now covered with dust, her gorgeous armor had been broken in half, revealing the lining underneath, her magic was exhausted, and her body was not lightly injured.
She walked in the wilderness, and finally ran away.
The ghost in the mirror helped her lure away all enemies, and blocked the tracking, stopping the High Vampires, and now...... There was only one thing left that he couldn't help Sid do, and that was to run for his life, which required Sid to cross a thousand kilometers and run to the border of Anliu to the territory of the empire.
And this journey in between, she needs to walk by herself.
The barren Anluo terrain is flat, with few mountains and no slopes, but it is too barren, and the road is basically the kind of saline-alkali land, where plants can barely survive, and the eyes are pale and yellow, and only occasionally can you encounter some plants.
Fortunately, this is not the case in all places, after all, some places are not so desolate, and she can encounter rivers and some trees that she can't name, forming an oasis in the Gobi Desert, which can barely catch her breath.
It's just that the river water here is all yellow and viscous, like a thick soup, and it is full of yellow sand and salt alkali, and it is impossible to drink it, Sid walked for a long time under the scorching sun, and he was already thirsty and his lips were chapped.
Originally, it was impossible to be under the scorching sun all the way, but Duke Wald gathered thousands of miles of clouds and qi to condense the mighty heavenly river, and pumped away all the clouds and water around him, and now Anliu is already a rare drought in a thousand years, if there is no professional of the same level to restore the climate, it will take a year or two to wait for nature to adjust back.
I walked to a river again, but this small river was gentle, and the water flow was not much, and it looked ...... Just pale yellow and doesn't seem to have much sand.
She thought about it again and again, touched her lips, and by accident, those cracks were already bleeding.
And she could see creatures in the distance, like ...... The deer, not like it, the animal she didn't recognize was drinking from the pale yellow water anyway.
"Let's try it first......" she thought to herself, half-knelt down, scooped a little with her hand, and drank some tentatively.
"Ahem, ahem...... Burst! Bah! "I can't stand it just when I first contact her, it's all the smell of mud and sand, half of the sand is when I drink a sip of water, and it smells earthy, and ...... It is still bitter and salty, and the salt of the saline-alkali land has long been melted in, and the taste is extremely poor, and it is impossible to quench thirst.
There was no way, she forced her injured body and slashed out with a sword, and the beast that looked like a deer fell in response, and Sid also felt a suffocation in his chest.
The injury is not light, and the strong hand will have a backlash.
Reluctantly walked over, she endured the nausea, gulping down the blood that spurted out, the smell was unpleasant, difficult to swallow, but it was the only thing that could be drunk here, and if you wanted to go out, you had to drink it.
She wanted to vomit, but she tried her best to suppress the vomiting because if she vomited, she might become dehydrated.
She doesn't have the experience of surviving in the wild, but she's not stupid either.
Then, she cut open the flesh with her sword, found some dead tree trunks, and some tumbleweeds, then chopped the stones with the blade of her sword, blew up sparks and ignited the tumbleweeds, and finally ignited the wood, and roasted the meat with a priceless sword.
At this time, I don't care how noble and cherished the sword is, it can't compare to a piece of meat.
She also wanted to use magic to get some clean water, or just light a fire, but unfortunately, the magic power was exhausted, and what could usually be recovered with a bottle of potion could only recover slowly and naturally, and her body could not even withstand the impact of gathering natural magic.
After eating a piece of meat that was charred on the outside, raw on the inside, and had no salt, and tasted extremely bad, Sid retched for a long time, but swallowed it for, and finally found a stone that could block the wind, and curled up to sleep.
The pampered eldest lady wanted to cry a little.
The wind in the wild is very cold, the wind and sand are very strong, her hair that was originally very delicate is now full of sand, the air is very dry, she inhales and feels that her nasal cavity is about to crack, her nostrils are full of black dirt, all the dust that has been inhaled, and the original delicate skin is now dry, and there is no longer a warm feeling.
Originally...... Is this what it feels like to suffer? How do the things you eat taste compared to those in the slums? Are they in this situation all the time?
And the ghost in the mirror...... Did he run away? Let's hope he makes it back alive...... What's wrong with Mom and Dad?
Sid thought about this, her consciousness gradually blurred, she was already very tired, and the discomfort of her body could not stop her from falling asleep, and soon, she fell asleep in the darkness.
