Chapter 29: The Contract
Seeing that the plan had succeeded, Yevre was swayed by the exotic ingredients.
Lias blinked his cute compound eyes and licked his lips involuntarily, and the cherry mouth unfolded a vivid description.
"The flesh and blood of the dragon is full of the temptation of power. Not only is it delicious and can increase power, but it also exudes all kinds of strange things. The golden light of the golden dragon, the fragrance of the green dragon, the blazing heat of the flaming dragon... However, dragons are extremely rare! after all, the Demon Lords have long since driven them into the forbidden area called the Dragon Lord. If you don't have the strength of the Demon Great Lord, don't try to get in easily. Otherwise, it's hard to say who eats whom. ”
In the extreme temptation, with a kind reminder, Lias is still relatively kind.
"As for the ingredients in the rest of the forbidden area, it's just too much. The flaming red lips of the immortal bird clan are simply the best in the world, crisp but not burnt, and you will never forget it. The sky whale floating in the sky, with its smooth and tender tongue, is really addictive after eating it once. As for the world-famous halfling cuisine, it is simply a miracle that can be processed with common ingredients. That's why the weak halflings were not exterminated, but became the royal cooks of the lords. ”
Yevre, who was squatting and listening carefully, once again uncontrollably vented his saliva and almost became a small river.
Lias, who was soaking in the river, stopped describing, looked deeply at Yevre, who was already unable to extricate himself, smiled slightly, and waited quietly for him to wake up.
Time was ticking, and Jevre, immersed in a sea of food, finally woke up.
"Deal! As long as you tell me all the places where these delicacies exist and the easiest way to get them, I'll let you go, and the grievances will be written off. Still, who knows if you're telling the truth or making up a story. Therefore, it is very necessary to sign a formal contract, after all, we do not have any basis for trust. If you don't sign it, then keep fighting. At most, I can afford to die a few more times. ”
Hearing that the contract was going to be signed, Lias grinned and hesitated.
As we all know, the contract of the demon clan is not a good thing. There are many traps, and one accidentally falls into it. There are too many examples of selling yourself and having to count money for others. Although he is also a veteran of organizing contracts, the demon's methods are strange and varied, who can identify them one by one?
To sign or not to sign, that's a big question.
Lias, who hesitated for a long time, still bit his lip fiercely and nodded heavily.
"It's not impossible to sign a contract, but you have to write it yourself in front of the master. If there is something wrong, don't blame the master for only dripping essence blood and not writing down his real name. ”
When Yevre heard this, he waved his hand happily, and then a rapid chant began to echo through the space.
A two-foot-square piece of vellum slowly emerges between the two. Square pieces of vellum, up to an inch or so thick. The back of the vellum is blank and there seems to be nothing. The front of the vellum paper is covered with complex patterns, and from a distance, it looks like countless strange delicacies are changing. In the middle of the vellum, there was nothing, waiting for Jevre to fill in the terms of the contract.
Jevre slammed his hand into his chest, and a loud thud shook the space. A mouthful of pale blue essence blood, as big as a bathtub, spurted out, and then contracted sharply, turning into a round droplet of only about three inches.
"Where's your essence and blood? only one person's essence and blood, but it can't form a valid contract! Hurry up, do you want to deceive me?"
Impatient, Yevre urged Lias, who was watching quietly. The big green eyes of horror glared at Lias fiercely, for fear that he would make some small moves.
"Let Xiao Ye take a breath, just now he used his physical talent to fight several times in a row, and he was resurrected a few times, which consumed a huge amount of essence blood. Now I can only squeeze the body's potential little by little, and slowly force the essence and blood out. Don't worry, the master will not harm himself if he speaks. Hey, people are under the eaves, and they have to bow their heads!"
Pink skin, glowing with a faint silver glow, shimmered faintly and violently. The bruised forehead proves that Lias is right. After brewing for a long time, a fist-sized drop of silver essence blood floated in the air, merging with the round droplet-shaped essence blood of Yevre.
Two strands of essence blood swirled and met. The two rays of light blue and silver flickered sharply. With a loud chant from Jevre, two rays of light vanished, and a drop of purple liquid two inches in size rested on the parchment.
Jevre continued to chant, eight huge fingers drawing strange patterns. Then, little by little, the purple liquid began to disappear. Passages of scribbled demonic texts appear on the front of the vellum.
It's so strange! Yevre himself hasn't been living in the remote Guro tribe, how can he suddenly write demonic scripts, and he can also write contracts. It's too weird, is the gap between the Yevre in the deep bloodline world and the Yevre in the real world so obvious?
Lias, who had a lot of broken memories, was puzzled, but there was no answer. Perhaps the bloodline world is more of a manifestation of latent consciousness, and the relationship between the still immature ontology obviously needs to be strengthened.
Lias carefully studied the text, carefully studying every sentence and word. Even every symbol that makes up the text is not spared. I looked at the intricate patterns around the leather paper for a long time, for fear that there were some unknown traps waiting for me.
The devil's strange methods, no matter how cautious they are, are not wrong. Moreover, the ability of this consciousness body is far beyond his own estimate, otherwise he would need to sign a contract in humiliation. With all the means that he is good at, the ordinary consciousness body has long been easily killed by dividing three by five by two.
Finally, with the remnants of his memory, Lias confirmed that he had eliminated all the traps. The provisions to be disputed were also pointed out to Yevre one by one.
"It is impossible to tell all the ways to find it. Do you know how big this world is? As far as my master knows, the diameter is more than 9 billion miles, and I am afraid that you will not be able to go to a few insignificant places in your lifetime? If you are not a great being standing at the pinnacle of the world, how can you be omniscient and omnipotent?"
Yevre's excessive greed, the wings behind his angry Lias's head, flapped rapidly.
"And this one, the master will never hurt your body? Is it a harm to scold you a few words, don't tell the master, if your self-esteem is hurt, it is considered a violation of the contract. If the master even agrees to such a provision, it is really a head in the water. ”
Yevre also seemed to realize the unreasonableness of these provisions, and patiently negotiated with Lias one by one, and carefully revised them.
After a long period of bargaining, the article finally made both parties feel reluctantly acceptable.
The contract has entered the most critical link, the signature. Not a nickname, not a simple title, but a real name. Only by signing the real name and adding the provisions written in the essence of blood, can the contract be recognized by the rules of heaven and earth, and thus binding.
The unique real name unique to each demon will never be repeated. The real name represents the true existence of the demon, and once it is fully obtained by others, it may be cursed by some strange sacrifices or methods, causing irreparable damage to the body. There are even some beings who can directly manipulate each other through their real names, like puppets.
As a result, each demon will give a makeover to the written real name, with a change that can only be recognized by himself. It's almost impossible to crack it. As for chanting the real name, that's even more impossible. Many demons would rather die than be manipulated by others, which is really better than death.
Lias and Jevre began to sign their names in unison. A unique text that can only be parsed by oneself, and there is no similarity at all. The only thing that is the same is that the real names are super long, at least fifty characters.
The vellum paper emits a faint golden light, representing that the contract is officially recognized by the rules and has a real and binding nature. If one party violates the rules, it will definitely be punished by the provisions of the article, and it will be injured at least or perishable at worst.
