Chapter 50: Garo's Request
The Demon God, an immortal and immortal being, is the source of all calamities.
As soon as it appeared, it set off a bloody storm on the King Continent, causing the destruction of life.
This is recorded in many historical records, especially in the desert of clouds.
It is said that this is where the demon god first appeared.
At that time, the desert in the clouds was far from being as barren as it is now, and it could even be said to be the most prosperous country in the entire King Continent.
Green mountains and green waters, a hundred flowers blooming, and the traffic is busy...... However, all the descriptions are incompatible with today's scenes.
And the reason for this is also blamed on the demon god.
It was he who provoked the endless greed in people's hearts...... In pursuit of supreme power, those in power will do whatever it takes, which leads to the leakage of demonic power, and the demon seed begins to spread with a disaster.
Tragedy is repeated in every age, and prosperous kingdoms wither...... gradually reduced to the desert in the clouds today.
The legend of the demon god has been passed down in the clouds for generations, but it seems that no one has ever been able to break this curse.
War has trampled on generations of people in the desert in the clouds.
Fortunately, the demon god also has a rival...... That is the legendary primeval magic guide - Jiang Ziya.
In almost every dark era, Jiang Ziya found the demon god among hundreds of millions of people, and then eliminated it, ending the invasion of darkness.
The footsteps of the demon god are always limited to the desert in the clouds, and they are not allowed to advance an inch.
Only the creatures of the desert in the clouds have been devastated......
And Jiang Ziya is always paying attention, as long as he finds the trace of the demon god, he will not tolerate it.
……
Growing up on the Great Wall since childhood, Baili Shouyo has naturally heard of these legends, but that's all.
So after listening to Garo, he couldn't express his opinion.
Su Lie's expression was solemn, and he said in a low voice: "I may know who the mysterious powerhouse that Shou Covenant said is......"
"The Ancient Wizard ......"
Linking the two together, he felt that his guess with Jia Luo was estimated to be eight or nine.
Hearing this, Jia Luo frowned and said: "Although the Ancient Demon has taken action, but the Organ Giant has also recovered, if the Demon God is not destroyed, it will never die, and it is estimated that in a few years, the Desert in the Clouds will be attacked by darkness again." ”
"But now there are almost no human beings living in the desert in the clouds, so the Great Wall will definitely become the first target, and by then, how many soldiers will be killed or wounded?"
Garo looked a little miserable.
Born in the desert of the clouds, she has already experienced countless battles with demon seeds, and in a battle a few years ago, she lost everything.
No one knows the cruelty of war better than her, and no one is more afraid and tired of it.
Su Lie shook his head bitterly and said, "That's also something that can't be helped, wearing this uniform, we have to guard the Great Wall and protect our hometown." ”
As he spoke, he walked up to Baili Shouyu, patted the latter on the shoulder, and said seriously: "Shouyu, I may have to trouble you with something." ”
Baili Shouyue looked at him suspiciously, and said, "What's not troublesome?" Brother Su Lie has something to say. ”
When Su Lie heard this, he went straight to the point: "I discussed with Mulan before, and I want to send you to Jixia Academy to study the mechanical arts, what do you think?" ”
Baili Shouyue frowned and refused: "No, if I leave, if that organ giant comes to attack the city, what should everyone do?" ”
If it was before, he would still be happy to go to Jixia Academy, after all, he also planned to study the mechanical technique next.
But now, knowing that the Giant of the Mechanism, a time bomb that could explode at any time, how could he go to study so far away with peace of mind?
If you want to go to Jixia Academy, you must first rush to Chang'an City, which is thousands of miles away, then go all the way to the east, through the majestic 100,000 Mountains to Yunmeng City, and then go north through Yunmengze and the Falling Sky Grand Canyon to reach Xuanyong City, and finally take the road to Jixia.
How many tens of thousands of miles are the journey?
If something happens to the Great Wall, it will take him four months to get back when he knows the news!
By that time, the daylilies were all cold.
"What you said, we have already taken it into consideration, Mulan has returned, and she can protect the Great Wall instead of you." Su Lie smiled when he heard this, and then added, "She, like you, has awakened the demonic energy. ”
"Demonic energy?" When Baili Shou heard about it, he instantly thought of something.
If this is the case, Mulan's strength is estimated to have risen a lot, and it can cope with many situations.
Su Lie nodded and said, "That's right! The demonic energy coupled with Mulan's own martial arts strength, if the dominant vanguard comes again, it will definitely not be Mulan's opponent. ”
"Moreover, the dragon meat you brought back has all been made into jerky, and if a brother is injured, he can recover by eating a small piece...... In addition, there is a shield mountain, and there is no need to worry about the defense of the Great Wall. ”
Speaking of this, Su Lie's expression gradually became serious.
"So, I really hope you can say yes...... If the Great Wall also had a Trap Master, it would reduce a lot of casualties...... Keep the promise, please! ”
Speaking of which, where is there room for refusal to keep the covenant for 100 miles?
He thought for a moment and said, "Okay, I promise you, but I also hope that Brother Su Lie can agree to my request." ”
"You say."
"If anything happens to the desert in the clouds, I hope you can find my brother and bring him back." Baili Shoujo said with a complicated expression.
This is also the last thing he can't let go, his parents died early, and his younger brother is his only relative now.
"That's fine." Su Lie readily agreed, anyway, Yucheng is not far from here, and when the time comes, just let Mulan run.
And from now on, they have to pay close attention to the changes in the desert in the clouds, and they can know the situation as soon as they have it.
After a while, Su Lie looked at the two people in front of him and said again: "Don't tell anyone else about the situation in the desert in the clouds, just after the big war, let the brothers rest in peace for a while, and when the time comes, I will tell them." ”
"yes, got it." Baili Shou agreed, and Jia Luo also nodded.
"Then so be it, you go back first, keep the promise and prepare, and set off as soon as possible."
Baili Shoujo walked out of the door with Garo, while Su Lie sat back behind the desk, tapping his fingers lightly on the tabletop, and sorrow quickly covered his originally resolute face.
After a few moments, he spread out the letter and took the pen and ink......
……
Outside the door, Baili Shoujo and Garo walked side by side.
Suddenly, Garo stopped.
"Keeping the Promise......
"Well, what's wrong?" Baili Shoujo looked at her suspiciously.
"That...... I want to ......" Garo looked a little embarrassed, and after a while, he seemed to have made up his mind and said, "I want to go to Jixia Academy with you...... May I? ”
Although Baili kept the covenant, he couldn't agree, and he had no right to agree.
"I can't be the master of this, you should ask Brother Su Lie ......"
When Jia Luo heard this, his expression was complicated and said, "As long as you agree, I will tell him this later...... Jixia Academy is the best academy in the mainland, and I also want to improve my strength quickly. ”
After saying this, Garo's expression also had a hint of stubbornness.
Although her strength has not been weak, these days, she has found that her role in the battlefield is minimal, and there are too many powerful demon seeds that she cannot fight.
Seeing her comrades-in-arms roaring in despair, her heart was like a knife, as if she had returned to the day when Thousand Caves City fell, and she could only watch, but she couldn't do anything.
She doesn't want to go on like this anymore, she can only ...... if her strength increases quickly.
Garo's face suddenly turned red, as seductive as a ripe apple.
I see the pitiful look, how can I bear to refuse when I keep the covenant for a hundred miles? I had to nod helplessly.
"Well, I promise you."
