Volume 1 Harlem Chapter 27 The End of the Old Realm
The sky is bright, the morning wind is gusting, and the sound of gambling and noise downstairs still does not stop. Ivan woke up refreshed, and when he saw Tillan, Ari, and Cobb still asleep, he couldn't help but feel emotional. I lamented that the situation was unclear at this time, that the situation was dangerous at this time, and that there were only three people left around me.
Ivan went out of the room and sat by the window watching the sun rise, thinking about possible countermeasures to deal with various situations. Suddenly, I heard a commotion from upstairs, and I could faintly hear Yem's croaking.
Ivan was a little puzzled, and a little curious, remembering that Yem had gone upstairs with Sonal last night. He climbed up the seventh floor from the window and crouched outside the window of Yem's room to listen.
Only the woman's voice roared in Sonal's voice, "I want to live happily ever after with Lord Yem." When I heard Da Keer say that she was going to kill you and get 'it', why would I risk my life to have Mondstadt Green drag Da Keer away? ”
Sonal began to cry again, muttering, "All this is for you, Lord Yem! If it weren't for you, I wouldn't have jumped into this gamble. ”
Yem lowered his tone and croaked, "Yes, I fully affirm and praise you for your great contribution to this operation. But everything has an order, and there are some things that cannot be done. ”
Yem continued, "It's no problem for me and Da Keer, and between the others, to kill each other. But if Richard intervenes, things get quite troublesome. What's more, the Demon Emperor is still watching. ”
Ivan was puzzled when he heard this, and wondered: what are these frogs and women talking about?
But he heard the woman cry and persuade: "This life full of fear is not suitable for you at all, and don't you make an appointment with me to live happily with me?" Then he began to cry.
Ivan listened and felt a terrible chill: a frog and a human, happy life? It gives you goosebumps just thinking about it.
Yem seemed to be angry, and his voice raised a few points: "Then what do you want?" What do you want? Even if we succeed in killing Richard, I'm afraid we'll be hunted down by even more difficult guys for the rest of our lives, do you want us to live in a corner for the rest of our lives? You simply don't know what that means. The frog croaked, and it grew louder and louder.
Sonal cried and argued: "Didn't you say that it was okay to have an 'apostle's egg'?" ”
Ivan was shocked to hear it - the apostle's egg?
"Hey, be quiet." Yem seemed to panic, listening only to the banging of the room, and Sonal being covered and whining.
Ivan didn't have time to think about it before he cried again. Sonal, who only listened, sobbed, "As long as you have that egg, you don't have to worry about anything anymore." Doesn't it mean that as long as you have the magic of that egg, you can do anything? ”
The frog was already angry: "You give me a little quiet, a little quiet." In case someone hears ......"
"What do you hear? What do you hear? Sonal roared without scruples at the moment, "Could it be that what you said to me at that time was all a lie to me?" ”
"Well, that's just talk...... Yem's voice lowered a lot.
Sonal pear blossom brought rain, crying and shouting: "How can this be reasonable, how can this be reasonable, why are you lying to me, why?" Do you lie to me when you say you love me and live with me all your life? You say, you say, you speak......"
The woman was crying and clamoring; Suddenly, the crying stopped abruptly, leaving only the clattering sound of chewing.
The air suddenly became quiet, eerie and suffocating. Ivan heard the sound and couldn't help but think: Could it be that this frog of Yem ate the woman of Sonar?
There was a voice in the room, and all I heard was Yem crying, "Damn it, damn it...... Why, why is this so, and why is that? Sonal, you're the woman I've loved most in my life......" Yem cried out in a miserable voice. It choked again: "It's all to blame for this egg, if it weren'...... it."
Suddenly, a sneer came from the room: "Ahaha, don't be angry, if this age falls, it should be difficult to recover, right?" Mr. Yem! ”
Ivan was shocked: Could it be that there were other people in the room?
"Is that ......," Yem jumped up and down in the room, rummaging and yelling, "Richard?" Where are you hiding? ”
Another sneer: "Where will it be?" Guess what, hee-hee-hee......"
When Yem heard this, he showed panic and shouted, "Richard, you, you guy, did you brand surveillance magic on Sonal?" ”
Here Chad's voice pretended to laugh and said, "I can't help it." Cute Da Keer has been in a bad state lately, and I'm quite worried. But now I really didn't expect to witness such a poignant love story, which really made me cry! Originally, I was quite curious about what the child born between the two of you would look like, but it's a pity! ”
"You guy, you guy...... "Yem was furious, "and Sulmo popped up before that, and you did it too?" ”
"Hey, hey, there's no one else but me! I'd thought before that either Da Ke'er would kill herself, or your plan would be revealed. The final result will be one of the two after all, and the probability of five or five points is not bad, right? ”
After a pause, Richard's voice continued, "I expected you to find a way to collude with foreign adventurers and let me turn my attention to the conference you are organizing. ”
Richard's voice grinned, but Yem croaked in the room.
Richard's voice continued, "Did you listen carefully? Alien adventurers! You've been innocently swept in, I'm explaining the situation to you! Did you hear it all? ”
Ivan was startled, not wanting to hide outside the window and was also discovered by Chad here. He had to get up and break into the house.
Shards of glass clanged to the ground. When Yem saw that Ivan was really here, he couldn't help but croak: "Alien adventurer, you, you are really eavesdropping!" ”
Ivan looked at it intently, and there was only Yem in the room at this time, and there was no Sonal in sight, so he must have been eaten by Yem's shadow. In the middle of the room, there was a dark purple eye, which was supposed to be Chad's surveillance magic there.
But seeing that Yem panicked, he drove the shadow to tear away the dark purple eyes. Richard's voice came from his eyes: "Hahaha, it's too late! I already know what that egg is, hahaha. Wait, I'll go get ......."
The dark purple eyes shattered and scattered into bits of light, and Richard's voice came to an abrupt halt. Yem was anxious, and the frog's face was sweating profusely; Seeing that Ivan hadn't reacted, it opened the secret door in the room and instantly got in.
Ivan came back to his senses at this time, and wanted to chase after him, but he was afraid that Yem had set some trap in the secret door. He immediately kicked out the door and shouted downstairs, "You three, come up." ”
Tillan, Ari, and Cobb ran up to the sound of footsteps, Cobb's eyes still sleepy.
Tierland hurriedly asked, "What's going on?" ”
Ivan hurriedly shouted: "Quick, let's go after Yem together!" ”
"Chasing Yem?"
"Quick, there's no time for nonsense."
Entering the secret door, the stairs go down, and there is no mechanism all the way down. I don't know how long I walked, but the stairs were gone, but a wide corridor was visible; The promenade is deep and unlit.
Ivan was anxious, and he couldn't care too much at the moment. led the three of them through the corridor, and they saw a fairly large room. The door on the right side of the room was open, and several people hurried in, and saw a long corridor. A few people ran through this long corridor, and in a short time they came to a large hall.
In the center of the hall, Yem summoned the black wolf in its shadow, and in front of the black wolf's paws, there was an orange-yellow giant egg. The egg was half a man's height and exuded dark purple magic.
Yem heard footsteps, and when he looked up, he saw Ivan and the others. It clenched its fists, and with fierceness in its eyes, it drove the black wolf to cry: "You guys, all of you go to death!" ”
The scarlet chains clanged as the black wolf waved. But then something happened suddenly, and the black wolf broke free from his chains and bit this Yem.
The shattered chains dissipated into smoke and dust. Yem didn't expect such a change at all, so he had to roll hard in a hurry, but the right half of his body had been bitten off by the black wolf.
The intestinal organs were mixed with blood and flowed on the ground, like white reptiles. Yem's frog coughed up blood in his mouth and cried out blankly, "Shadow, why, why ......"
The black wolf swallowed the right half of Yem's body into his stomach and grinned in his wolf's mouth, "You, drive me for too long." I used to be able to break free, but it didn't make sense. Now, with this apostle's egg, if I swallow it, I can become strong and strong! ”
After the black wolf finished speaking, he bit Yem, who was paralyzed on the ground, and swallowed it in one gulp.
Ivan and the others were shocked, they didn't want this royal entertainment Yem to die like this, let alone be eaten by its own shadow.
The black wolf licked the corners of his mouth, squinted and glanced at Ivan and the others, grabbed the egg by the claw, and was about to swallow it in one bite.
Ivan didn't have time to think, the lightsaber was pulled out, and with a swing forward, the moon-white sword qi of 'breaking through the air and drawing the sword and slashing' flew away, cutting off the black wolf's claws.
The dome hit the ground and rolled to the wall.
The black wolf was stunned, raised his head and looked at Ivan viciously, and shouted: "You, damn! ”
Ivan just wanted to deal with the black wolf as soon as possible, and turned back to Tillan and shouted, "Ray! ”
Tillan immediately fell to his knees and chanted, "O God! Listen to my call! Please send down the divine punishment ......"
Golden lightning flashed through the hall, dazzling and dazzling. Ivan faced Jin Lei and rushed towards the black wolf with his sword.
"Extreme Divine Sword Technique - Instant Slash!"
The lightsaber condensed, the golden thunder flickered, and the countless golden thunders in the air actually converged towards the lightsaber. Ivan's body was like a gale, his sword was carrying golden thunder, and he dodged and slashed at the black wolf.
"Combo! Holy Thunder Sword Flash! ”
The golden thunder exploded, the sword aura overflowed, and the golden light shone as far as the eye could see. This 'Holy Thunder God Sword Flash' was too domineering, and the black wolf was actually cut off by a sword. The thunder continued, and the black wolf's body was torn to pieces. The fragments of the black wolf's body in the air turned into black smoke and dissipated.
Ivan just wanted to rest, but something happened again. I saw a large hole open in the roof of the hall, and four men in black cloaks flew down.
But see these four people: one has long gray hair, is tall, and his left arm is as blue as light; One has short crimson hair, a petite body, and a bear puppet in his arms; One has black eyes and black hair, and is thin; And the last man has short white hair and a short stature, but his eyes are like knives.
Ivan didn't recognize the four of them, so he immediately jumped in front of the Dome and kicked it to Ari. Then he turned around with his sword, looked at the four of them, and asked, "Do you have any advice?" ”
The gray-haired man listened and smiled, "It's nothing, it's just hired by someone." You leave the egg and go, okay? We don't want to fight and kill. ”
"Huh!" Ivan chuckled.
The gray-haired man looked sincere and said respectfully: "Really! We're also making hard-earned money, so there's no need, right? So you leave the eggs, and we will be on the wrong side. That's good for everyone! ”
This 'apostle's egg' is so important that Ivan doesn't know what to do with it or how to use it; But with the word 'apostle', this egg may be part of the apostolic power. Where can this kind of thing be given to others casually, otherwise it will cause disaster.
And the four people in front of them can't be underestimated, and Ari and Cobb will only become a burden if they stay. Ivan was resolute and immediately ordered: "Boy, you go first with the egg and Cobb!" ”
"Master......"
"Don't talk nonsense, let's go!"
Ari saw the situation clearly, holding the egg, pulling Cobb to turn around and run down the corridor. The four of them didn't stop it, they just looked at it coldly.
When Ivan saw the eyes of these four people, he shouted in disbelief: "You guys, there are still people!" ”
"It's just the employer over there, but we're just holding you back." The long-haired man chuckled softly.
Ivan pulled Tilland to turn around and run, but the thin man and the short man among the four rushed out and blocked Ivan and Tillan's way. The two of them couldn't help but say, a magic array condensed, releasing fire magic; A violent wind danced around him, swept towards the flames.
"Combo! Flame Dragon! ”
The wind brought flames and gathered in the air to form a dragon of flames. The flames were blazing, and the dragon rushed at Ivan and Tirlan.
Tirlan chanted, "O God! Please watch over us......"
The shield appears out of thin air with the chanting. The fire dragon flew, and the waves of flames slammed into the shield, dissipating with it.
The gray-haired man slashed with a knife as the flames dissipated. Ivan blocked with a lightsaber, but the gray-haired man suddenly retreated, and a pitch-black figure appeared behind the man.
The figure wore a demon mask, had a dark complexion, and held a bamboo knife. The figure disappeared in a flash, flashed in front of Ivan and slashed down. Ivan crouched down, 'drew his sword and slashed' at the figure. But this demonic figure actually dissipated out of thin air, or made a little green smoke.
Ivan was shocked when he saw this, and couldn't help but exclaim, "Ghosts? ”
"Do you call it a ghost?" The long-haired man laughed, "But I call it a ghost!" ”
Before the words fell, the figure of the phantom appeared abruptly again. But the phantom flashed behind Tillan and slashed down. Ivan immediately returned to the defense and helped Tillan block the knife. But the phantom suddenly changed again, and switched places with the gray-haired man.
Ivan had no idea of such a trick. The gray-haired man was much stronger than the phantom, and Ivan, who raised his sword to block, was immediately lowered down. The phantom struck from behind him, aiming directly at Tilland. Ivan couldn't withdraw at the moment, he could only watch.
The phantom didn't kill him, but just held a bamboo knife and stabbed Tillan's thigh. The gray-haired man saw that the phantom had succeeded, and immediately pulled away. Ivan loosened his sword and hurriedly turned around to check on Tilllan's injuries.
Seeing that Tillan only injured his thigh, Ivan's heart was relieved, but he asked the man suspiciously, "Why?" ”
The gray-haired man withdrew the phantom, put his knife back into its sheath, and said with a smile, "You and I are not enemies, and we are just hired by others." Why kill your people, so that I will not die? Right? Besides, as long as you don't get in the way of your employer, when the time comes, we will leave, and there is no need to embarrass you. ”
Ivan frowned, but worried about Tillan in his heart, and asked softly, "Is there anything wrong?" ”
"No, but I can't stand up." Tilland sat on the ground and covered the wound, "It's just that this wound is weird and can't be treated." ”
The gray-haired man explained, "There is a curse on the phantom's knife, and healing magic is ineffective in the area where it is cut. When we're gone, you can find a 'troubadour' or a magician who is proficient in curse magic, and remove the curse. ”
Ivan helped Tillan bandage his wounds, and stood up with a solemn face as he raised his sword.
The gray-haired man shrugged his shoulders and said with a smile: "There's no need to fight!" Your companion has been wounded and incapacitated, and if you force her to fight, she will only bleed to death. I've made it very clear, everyone is waiting here for the end of the matter in a friendly manner, okay? ”
Ivan glanced at the situation in the arena - there was a mage with wind and a mage with fire guarding the entrance of the corridor, and in front of him was the man who used the phantom, and in the corner there was a girl holding a bear puppet, who was unable to advance or retreat. He took the wounded Tillan with him and couldn't rush out at all.
Ivan thought and thought, thought and thought, and finally closed his eyes and sighed helplessly: "Cheng, we are waiting here." ”
Tilland looked stunned, not understanding why Ivan was like this, and couldn't help but cry out urgently: "You can go and save those two children." ”
"You're more important than anyone else!" Ivan struggled and yelled at Tilland. But Ivan didn't let his guard down, holding the lightsaber in front of Tillan.
"Brother, yes! OK! The man with long gray hair clapped his hands and exclaimed, "I admire you!" Just rush you for the fact that you are desperate for your woman, I appreciate you! When that's the time, I'll tell you who the employer is, how? ”
All that remains in the dark and lonely hall is abandonment.
On the other side, Ari was holding the egg and pulling Cobb all the way. The magic sword Fachela seemed to sense the magic of the 'Apostle's Egg', and couldn't help but rejoice: "Hey, boy, how about sharing this egg in your hand with me?" ”
Ari already knew that the danger of the situation was urgent, and shouted in his heart: "It's not okay at this time, first, there is danger, and second, there is this slave next to me watching ......"
"Wouldn't it be enough to kill this slave?"
Ah Rui was stunned for a moment, but quickly figured it out, and said in his heart: "No, at least it's out of danger......"
The two of them came out of the corridor, and when they arrived at the room, which was quite large, they saw that there was already a person in the room. This man has blonde hair, wears a jacket and leather pants, and looks unusually handsome.
The man blocked the way, looked at the two and smiled: "Little friend, take the ...... in your hand"
"Who's the little friend?" Ari panicked, but he didn't lose in his mouth.
The man was stunned for a moment, then smiled gently, and said, "Well, that's good." This handsome young man, can you give me the egg in your hand? ”
At this time, the Demon Sword Fachela proposed in Ari's mind, "Boy, this person is not good. All you have to do is promise me to devour your flesh, and I'll take you out. ”
"No, I was killed by him, and you don't want to live!" Ari said.
"Why are you so stubborn."
"Let's just tell the truth. You must have a way, and you don't want to die, right? ”
"Okay, okay, there's a way."
"Speak quickly!" Ari was anxious.
"You take out your glowing sword, and I'll help you absorb the magic of this egg, and then penetrate the magic into the sword. You won't absorb much mana this way, though, and your sword will be damaged. ”
"At this time, what do you care, you suck it quickly!"
After Ah Rui finished speaking, he immediately took out his lightsaber. The blonde man in the jacket looked mocking when he saw Ari take out his lightsaber. Cobb trembled with fear behind Ari.
The magic sword sucked in the magic power of the 'Apostle's Egg', and Ari felt that his whole body was swollen and painful, and the lightsaber in his hand was bright, the sword roared, and the blade turned pink in an instant.
"Boy, this is the time. Rush out and leave the little slave behind you alone. The magic sword Facira exclaimed urgently.
Ari held the egg, picked up his sword and rushed to the door. The blonde man sneered at this, "Heh, I can't help myself. ”
I saw that the blonde man grabbed it out of thin air, and Ari was pulled over. The man clenched his fist and sent Ari flying.
The giant egg rolled to the ground, and the blonde man was a little excited, and walked slowly to pick up the egg on the ground. Cobb didn't know where he got the courage at this time, ran to the egg and hugged it, and shouted in a trembling voice: "I can't give it to you, I can't give it to you, this is the adventurer's ......"
The blonde man had a different face at the moment, and his face was hideous; He pinched Cobb's neck and lifted it up, sneering: "Garbage, you should stay in the garbage heap!" The force in his hand increased, and with a click, it crushed Cobb's neck.
Ari watched as Cobb was pinched to death and thrown in a corner by the blonde man. His heart trembled, and his mind went blank. The Demon Sword Facila couldn't help but remind urgently: "Don't be stunned, boy. Run, leave that egg alone, run. Ari woke up suddenly, and rushed out the door with his lightsaber.
Seeing this, the blonde man laughed: "I have changed my mind now, and you will die too!" With that, he grabbed into the air, and Ari was pulled over again.
"You throw the sword out, I'll detonate it!" The magic sword roared.
Before Ari had time to think, he threw his lightsaber at the blonde man. I saw the lightsaber explode violently, and the brilliance was bursting, as if it was about to flash the blind eyes. But the blonde man didn't panic, his right hand became a claw, and he grabbed Guanghua. The brilliance was torn apart, and the remnants of the magic were swept away.
The shadow of the claw castrated unabated, hitting Ari's chest. Ari was clawed to the flesh and blood, and fell to the ground gasping for breath.
The magic sword couldn't help but sigh secretly: "Hey, the difference in strength is too big." But he was thinking about how to get out.
The blonde man walked slowly, stepped on Ari's head, and said with a smile: "You surprised me a little, so I'll give you a decent way to die!" ”
Ari doesn't want to die, although Yem is dead and revenge has been avenged, but he already has a yearning for life and life. But the situation at this time made him helpless, so he had to take out the black beads that the old woman with the red nose had given him from his arms, and smashed the blonde man's feet over and over again.
The magic sword sighed: "Hey, if you don't promise me, maybe there is still a little ...... Well? ”
The black bead suddenly shattered, and a palpitating magic erupted from it. The blonde man was startled and immediately pulled away.
I saw that the magic was rolling in the room at this time, and the surging magic power actually tore a crack out of thin air. There was turbulence in time and space blowing out of the cracks, and it was chaotic.
When the blonde man saw this crack, he exclaimed loudly, "A crack in another dimension? Immediately retreat into the corner, avoiding the crack and sucking.
But this crack was right in front of Ari, and in that trance, Ari had been sucked into this crack. The crack grew smaller and smaller, and after a few moments it was gone.
The mana wind is gone, leaving only the stunned blonde man and Cobb's corpse.
