Chapter 8: The Chosen One
One hundred and eight squares in Chang'an, Changle Fang.
In the narrow alley where no one is around, the murderous aura bares its fangs.
Ming Shiyin stopped, and a strangely dressed young man appeared at the entrance of the alley.
The Peony Fang knew who he was, a traveler from the West, Marco Polo, the messenger of the fallen gods, emperors.
In some relationships, they should be colleagues.
Since there is a master who is equally loyal, why is there such a murderous aura?
"You are the messenger of Lord Dijun?" Even if he guessed the identity of the person who came, Ming Shiyin also asked.
But the other party did not answer.
After a few seconds of confrontation, the two of them jumped back one step after another, and the sound of breaking the air sounded, leaving two craters at their positions just now, and in the next second, the entire bluestone slab shattered and was annihilated.
Not far away, in the attic, a blonde girl who was also dressed strangely held a two-stringed longbow and aimed at them.
Ming Shiyin secretly thought, it seems that she is not a companion with the Fallen God Envoy.
But the arrow just now, if it hits, he will probably be annihilated with the bluestone slab.
Marco Polo raised his gun and fired back, and the girl shot an arrow, which collided with each other and shattered the bullet.
Seeing that the sneak attack was unsuccessful, and her position was exposed to the eyes of the enemy, the girl did not show a look of annoyance, but she quickly jumped out of the attic and disappeared in the sudden downpour.
Ming Shiyin cast his eyes on the young man, Marco Polo looked at him deeply, turned away, and didn't even say a word to him, and just separated.
Ming Shiyin thought to himself, I don't know if there is a chance to see each other again, it's better not to.
He had recently been overwhelmed by the power given by the Fallen God, and he didn't have the heart to deal with Marco Polo.
But he should have only one purpose for coming to Chang'an, and that is the core of the ark.
For the same purpose, perhaps, an alliance can be formed.
Chang'an, Suzaku Gate.
ฮฒ, activate the cognitive barrier.
The girl with the two-stringed longbow stood under the city wall, her long golden hair covered by a wide hood, and her eyes were golden, and she ordered the second system of the ark ฮฒ.
- Authorization to Skip the Rank: Kunlun Patrol Envoy Rain
- Human Body Nguyen Van Lok
- Cognitive barrier, activation
The girl lifted her hood, revealing her face that had changed to black hair and black eyes, put the longbow behind her back, took out the made road guide, and said to herself excitedly, "Very good, it's time to start an adventure in the world." โ
On the bank of the Great Wall, at the foot of Senluo Mountain.
Li Bai and King Lanling left the four of them far behind and had already rushed to the mountainside.
"I haven't seen you for a few months, and your speed has increased again." King Lanling stopped under a tree in a wasteland, and Li Bai, who arrived at the same time as him, landed on the treetops.
"I was hunted down for more than a month before, can I not improve~"
"Who are you being hunted down?"
"It's the swordsman named Luna, she said that the sword is used to challenge the strong, so she chased me all the way, the charm was too great, and I was helpless."
"Tsk."
"King Lanling, what are you going to do in the future?"
"What to do?"
"Don't play dumb, you know I'm asking Mulan." Li Bai's eyes were deep, and his tone was serious, "King Lanling, do you really like her?" โ
"......" King Lanling looked up at the sky and did not answer.
"I know what you're thinking, King Lanling." Li Bai also looked at the sky together, and the mirage of the Duhu Mansion was close at hand.
"If you don't reclaim your territory, you won't be the true king, and you won't have the right to marry her."
"It was Heluo who took everything from you. Your noble status, your name that you can no longer use, and your supposed splendid life have all been lost because of He Luo's war against the desert in the clouds. โ
"For the honor of your family, for the sake of your people, for the sake of having a place to live, whatever you have to sacrifice, you will do it, right?"
King Lanling glanced at him, "...... What do you say about this? โ
Li Bai smiled, "I, I want to use the core of the ark to reverse time and reshape Loulan, so I need someone to go to Chang'an to seize the core of the ark together." โ
"That's impossible, even if you can enter Chang'an, you won't be able to touch the core of the ark, let alone the method of activating it."
Li Bai raised his eyebrows and motioned to him, "The boat will naturally go straight to the bridge, and we have a chance now." โ
King Lanling was stunned for a moment, "What do you mean?" โ
"Her companion named Hirsch is not human, she always inadvertently exudes superiority, whether she wants her help or not."
"She, no, who the hell are they?"
Li Bai didn't answer this question, but said to himself, "That silver-haired girl is called Luna, a member of the twenty-two Arcana family in the Land of Warriors, who has inherited the power of miracles, and her brother is the Great Wall Guardian Armor. โ
"Armor, but the warrior who is strong enough to make me fearful, he is the demon of the former Warrior Land."
โโฆโฆโ
"I've checked, their family has had a curse for generations, and Hirsch also inadvertently mentioned that using the power of betraying the gods in exchange will be unfortunate for a lifetime."
After a pause, he said, "She also said that all grievances and grievances in the world, from ancient times to the present, will end in this generation. โ
"Do you still hate Heluo?"
"Naturally, if it weren't for the wisdom of the current empress and the peace of the world, otherwise, I would definitely overthrow Heluo."
"On your own?"
"On your own."
"Oh."
"Anyway, why haven't they come up yet? It's been so long. โ
After them, on the trail at the foot of the mountain, slowly ascend the mountain, intending to enjoy the scenery of the distant journey.
Suddenly, the messenger stopped, stopped laughing, and his facial expression disappeared, no longer moving forward.
"What's wrong?" Guiguzi asked a little strangely.
The envoy did not answer, but stood stunned, his eyes gradually losing their lustre.
"Hey, what's wrong with you?" Guiguzi poked the messenger's shoulder with his staff, and the messenger fell limply on the mud with a "poof-" sound.
Soon, blue liquid overflowed from the skin-shattering face, which startled Guiguzi.
"What's going on?" Luna quickly helped her under a nearby tree and questioned Guiguzi.
Guiguzi shook his head, "I don't know, he suddenly became like this." โ
"Is it a disease? Has she ever been like this before? Luna looked at the blue liquid from her face and reached out to wipe it off, thinking of the scourge of the Bloodclan that she had heard of, and did not dare to do it.
"No, and there's no way she's going to get sick."
"Are you so sure?" Luna asked, skeptically.
"Sure." Guiguzi replied categorically.
"What's wrong?" Li Bai and King Lanling, who were walking in front, found that the people behind them had not followed, and after waiting for a while, they returned to check the situation.
Luna said, "Hirsch suddenly passed out, and besides, there was something on her face......"
Touching the mask on his face, King Lanling leaned over to look at it and said in surprise, "This is ...... Blackstone's liquid? โ
"Blackstone?" The group said in surprise.
"Well, an ore that can cause a rebellion of the demon species, from the ...... of Yucheng" Speaking of this, King Lanling frowned and asked Guiguzi, "Now, it's time to tell us, who are you?" โ
Guiguzi clenched his staff and asked vigilantly, "...... you guys Is it trustworthy? โ
Li Bai raised his eyebrows, "I've been walking together for a few months, how can I not be trusted?" โ
"Our secrets are related to the future of this world, even so, do you want to get involved?" Guiguzi glanced at them one by one and asked in a serious tone.
The three of them nodded in unison, Guiguzi sighed, and in Mengqi's worried eyes, he sat down next to the messenger and talked about what happened before......
That was a few months ago, in late winter and early spring, in the Dragon's Guardian Land in King's Canyon.
He has been living in King's Canyon, often surveying its ancient ruins.
Then, in the early morning of that day, the demonic power in the canyon suddenly rioted, condensing towards the place guarded by the dragon clan.
Before he could get there, the dragons of the Guardian Land had been terminated, and all he heard was a dragon roar, and then, as soon as he came out, he was held behind by a sword.
In the hazy white mist, the black-haired girl in white robe fluttering in the air like wings had already discovered his location and teleported in front of him.
Guiguzi was startled and blurted out, "You...... Hello? โ
"......" Perhaps his reaction was too unexpected, the girl was stunned for a moment, and replied, "...... Hello. โ
"Are you, bounty hunter?"
"No, I'm ...... Adventurer. โ
"You're the first adventurer I've ever seen who goes straight to the dragon."
"Really......"
"Well, the power of your demonic path is very strong!"
โฆโฆ
Li Bai interrupted him, "Talk about the point." โ
"Oh, okay."
"Can you put your sword away?"
"Oh, I'm sorry, I thought it was a dragon." The messenger waved her hand in the air, and the sword disappeared, and she said, "Do you know where Guiguzi lives? โ
"Uh, do you have anything to do with him?"
"Well, I'm here to find him."
"Who are you?"
"I don't know."
โโฆโฆโ
"It's about going to be a companion, but I haven't met him, so I don't know."
"Why are you looking for him?"
"I'll have to find him."
"You...... Who are you? โ
He Xi ...... Hirsch. โ
"Hello, I'm Guiguzi."
"Alas, ฮฃ(?? ะด?? ๏ผใ โ
"There's no need to be so surprised, right? You have come to find me, and you do not know me? โ
"Ah, I thought you were a strange intelligent demonic creature, but I didn't expect you to be a human, but you're too short, right?"
"I'm here because of the experiment of the Turning Technique, so I'm not a strange demonic creature."
"Oh," the envoy nodded, and then half-squatted on the grass, "Mr. Guiguzi, are you willing to leave the King's Continent?" โ
"Huh?"
"The Commander has chosen you to be the civilization recorder of this world and leave this planet with the Ark."
"Alas?" Wearing a mask, he could feel Guiguzi's surprise, he took a few steps back, and his tone was frightened, "What are you talking about?!" โ
The messenger stood up and said respectfully, "Three thousand years ago, the gods chose you at this time to be the civilization recorder of this planet, and to leave this planet with the ark and go to another world. โ
