Chapter 14 Wait and see

Karl stared blankly at the withered antlers in front of him.

He was utterly shocked.

He couldn't imagine that a person he had never met would be willing to sacrifice his life to save him, especially when he had become such a ghost.

"Why?"

Looking up at the gentle smile, Carl asked, his 'voice' trembling at the moment, even if he couldn't put it into words.

"Because, this is the pain you shouldn't bear."

The superior demon said, and slashed back.

Airplanes!

The palm of his hand is like an unsheathed sword, vibrating the air, and the 'antlers' of the strange deer are cut cleanly.

It's not that the strange deer doesn't dodge, it's just that the speed is not as fast as the high-level evil spirit.

After watching the superior evil spirit pull its 'antlers' out of its chest and throw it on the ground as if nothing had happened, the strange deer was silent for a moment, and then its voice became more and more gloomy.

"Lady of the Mist, you're going to stop me?"

The other party revealed his identity, and the high-ranking evil spirit was not surprised at all.

That kind of 'withered branch'-like ability is simply the same as the guy it met before, and if the two have nothing to do with each other, the superior evil spirit will say nothing to believe it.

As for the other party to know so quickly?

On the technology side, there are quick communication methods such as mobile phones.

The mystery side is more convenient.

Even, more specific.

For example......

Indenture!

The other party has a contract-like aura on his body.

It's clear that these guys are really united.

In order to deal with the Temple of War, Lady Calamity!

After these speculations flashed in his heart for a moment, the face of the superior evil spirit remained compassionate.

"Not to stop, but to redeem."

"He shouldn't have been."

"None of this should happen in the eyes of my Lord."

The superior evil spirit was ambiguous and said vaguely.

When you don't know how to answer and can't keep silent, then choose mysterious words to prevaricate the other party.

This is something his boss does often.

It couldn't agree more.

Because, this will make the other party think of the point that he wants to hide the most.

'Mist' also took a fancy to the qualifications of its prey!

Such a speculation appeared in the heart of the strange deer.

There is no doubt that the prey in front of it has quite extraordinary qualities, which are much better than the prey it hunted before, and it only needs to be carefully polished to become its own warrior.

A qualified warrior is hard to come by.

The strange deer doesn't want to give up, but the strange deer is also afraid of the 'fog' that has been hiding itself.

"He broke into my territory."

"He deserves to be punished."

The strange deer said in a deep voice.

"He's had enough to bear."

"The rest of ......"

"I'll take care of it."

The superior evil spirit sighed slightly, and then walked towards the strange deer.

The strange deer was startled at first, took two steps back, and when he found that the superior evil spirit had not made any action and was standing in front of it, the strange deer was puzzled.

"What are you going to do?"

Strange Deer asked.

"Take your wrath in his place until you think you can."

The superior evil spirit said slowly.

A look of wonder appeared on the zombie-like face of the strange deer.

"Are you sure?"

The strange deer emphasized.

"I'm sure."

The superior demon nodded slightly.

When the superior evil spirit nodded, a killing intent appeared in the breath of the strange deer.

Undisguised killing intent!

Several people in the vicinity of Sika City are deeply wary of the sudden rise of the 'Mist', even if they are nominally about dealing with the Temple of War and the Calamity.

Because, the concealment of the 'fog' is so surprising to them.

Just imagine, when they fight to the death with the Temple of War and the Lady of Calamity, and the 'fog' suddenly jumps out, what kind of situation will it be?

Just thinking about it, the strange deer felt a chill.

Thankfully, they didn't notice the Mist, but they were still noticed by the Temple of War and the Lady Calamity.

Of course, those two bastards didn't have any good intentions, just the idea of disrupting their alliance.

This was the case with the temporary stronghold of the 'Mist' before.

And the 'mist' in front of him is 'begging for death'?

And so it is!

The Withered Branches want to devour the believers of the Mist.

It doesn't mind turning the Misty Dependents into its own warriors.

Burst!

Without any warning, as soon as the strange deer lowered its head, it rushed towards the superior evil spirit, and again, the withered antlers pierced the body of the superior evil spirit.

Then, the head shook repeatedly.

It's like a knife, and the superior evil spirit is cut into pieces.

Hurt!

It hurts!

The superior evil spirit scolded the strange deer in front of him in his heart, but he still kept a smile on his face.

Even if it's chopped, that's it.

Even if the head is crushed, the corners of the mouth must be upturned.

Even if the people around me can't tell the difference, I have to maintain the quality of an actor.

One minute!

The superior evil spirit stood there, allowing the strange deer to attack again and again.

The body was shattered dozens of times.

The skull was shattered dozens of times.

But each time, it will be restored again.

As always, he kept smiling and looked at the strange deer.

And the strange deer has been full of murderous intent from the beginning, and now it is a little frightened.

It was born after the 'Black Plague'.

Guys like it all appeared around that time.

They really know each other well.

Therefore, in the mind of the strange deer, the 'mist' that appeared after the 'Black Calamity' like it should be similar to it, with a certain 'immortal' trait, but it has a limit.

To be able to 'resurrect' once or twice is pretty much it.

But in front of him, the Misty Dependents have been resurrected no less than a hundred times.

The harsh reality tells the strange deer that it is not the same as the other party.

Maybe......

'Mist' wasn't originally born near Sika's collar at all!

Only in this way can it be explained!

So, the 'fog' is here......

The thought that came to the bottom of my heart made the strange deer unwilling to delay here any longer.

But just a fighter.

Compared to 'fog', it's really nothing.

Another cut.

The upper spirits were dismembered and then reassembled.

Looking at the high-ranking evil spirit monster deer that appeared again, he took two steps back.

"Is that enough?"

The superior evil spirit asked softly.

"Humph!"

The strange deer, who was jealous and anxious to leave, snorted coldly and quickly disappeared into the pine forest outside the city.

Watching the other party disappear, the superior evil spirit turned around.

He saw Carl, who was both grateful and wary.

The other party is grateful for its saving grace, and they are also guarding against the 'God of Mist'.

For the former 'God of Mist', the superior evil spirit is very disdainful, not to mention the cruelty of the means, and there is no skill, and the favorite thing is actually the blood sacrifice.

This is unacceptable to any normal person.

Especially people like Carl, who was born in the aristocracy and had a good education, are even more vigilant.

Even, the superior evil spirit is sure that if it were not for its life-saving grace to the other party, the other party would have drawn its sword against it at this time.

However, since it has chosen to make a move, it must have something to gain.

Alert?

Watch out for?

What's that?

can't eliminate these, it can only mean that your acting skills are not enough.

Enough acting, everything is a matter of course.

The body of the upper demon shook slightly, and he smiled gently at Carl again.

"It's okay, my brother, I'm ......"

Before the words were finished, the superior evil spirit fell directly to the ground.

Rushed and sudden.

Without warning!

Karl was not prepared in the slightest.

In Carl's eyes, the strange deer just now was already a great enemy, and the high-ranking evil spirits were even more invincible.

He had seen with his own eyes the 'immortality' of the superior evil spirits.

However, the invincible high-ranking evil spirit in his heart fell to the ground like this, his face was pale, and his breath became weak.

"How are you?"

Without hesitation, Karl lifted the superior demon up.

In any case, the other party saved him, this is a fact, and there is no doubt about it.

"I'm fine, my brother."

"What I have endured is nothing compared to the pain of my Lord."

The upper demon looked weak, but even so, a smile appeared on Carl's face when he saw it.

Facing the smile of the superior evil spirit, Carl felt very dazzling.

"Why did you save me?"

"I don't believe in the 'God of Mist'!"

"I can't be your brother either!"

Carl couldn't help but say.

The superior demon didn't answer, just smiled and shook his head.

"Can you send me to the West Gate of Sika City?"

The superior demon asked.

"Okay."

Karl nodded dryly.

Supporting the superior evil spirit, Karl walked towards the west gate of Sika City, Finisha followed wisely, Karl knew very well that his appearance could not get close to the city, even if he was the nobles of Sika City in front of him, but at this moment, once he approached Sika City, he must have been attacked mercilessly.

But Carl still chose to agree to the superior evil spirit.

He wanted to repay the favor.

Wait until you pay off the other party's kindness, then consider the other party's purpose, and then decide how to deal with it.

With this in mind, Karl carefully approached the west gate of Sika City with the help of the superior evil spirit, and to his surprise, before he could get closer, a group of soldiers from Sika City rushed over.

"Emissary!"

The young man in the lead shouted in a low voice, his voice full of worry, and then the young man thanked him directly.

"Thank you, Your Excellency, for sending the messenger back."

"I'm so grateful!"

As he spoke, the young man saluted Karl.

Not only the young man, but also the people behind him.

"If you have any trouble, you can come here to me, I'm Sergey!"

With that, the young man helped the superior demon over, and the group quickly disappeared into the night, leaving only Karl and Warhorse Finessa at a loss in the night wind.

Sergey, Karl knew.

A number of characters in the city guards.

Young, strong, and excellent in swordsmanship, he didn't expect that the other party would be a believer in the 'God of Mist', just as he didn't expect that this would be the case after he came here.

There was no expected wooing.

Not even mentioned.

Of course, there was no fear that he and Finessa should have.

It's all very natural.

It is the attitude of facing a life-saving benefactor.

That kind of gratitude from the bottom of my heart is not pretended.

Carl thinks he can tell the difference.

But the more this happened, the more uncomfortable Carl became.

"Obviously I'm the one who was saved!"

Karl whispered.

It's a pity that no one but Finisha heard such a voice.

And Finessa, although intelligent, does not have the ability to understand such complex feelings, so she can only stare at her master with two eyes that are burning with soul fire.

After a few moments, Carl came to his senses.

He decided to get out of here for a while.

The way he is now, the wilderness is the best choice.

Picking up his bearings, Karl mounted Finessa and headed east of Sika City.

There's a dense forest there.

The Temple of the God of War patrols once a month.

Three days ago, it had just been patrolled, and for a short time, hiding there was the best option.

As for after?

When he figured out his current state, he was not in a hurry.

……

"Well done."

Qin Ran complimented.

Qin Ran, who had witnessed everything through the power of the contract, had to applaud the reaction of the superior evil spirit.

Even if it was him, Qin Ran didn't think that he could do it better than the upper evil spirit.

After all, some of the abilities of the superior evil spirits are too useful.

However, it was precisely because of this that Qin Ran felt more and more that the high-level evil spirits still had potential to be tapped.

Those who can work harder, don't they?

Qin Ran lowered his head and looked at the [Lord of Mist] in his hand, the power of pure faith was constantly coming out from above, and after being sucked by 'gluttony', it was transformed into the purest force and circulated in his body.

Maybe not a lot, but it's endless.

Whether it is Qin Ran or 'gluttony', they are very satisfied.

Therefore, Qin Ran also became interested in the so-called 'gathering'.

"A gathering of local evil gods?"

"Moreover, it's still in Viscount Sika's mansion."

Qin Ran raised his hand and knocked on the tabletop, his eyes full of playfulness.

A nobleman who believes in the god of war and puts the god emblem in the family coat of arms would collude with many evil gods, which is probably unimaginable.

Or is the real Viscount Sika dead?

Now it's just a puppet?

It doesn't make sense.

The other party is a devout believer in the god of war, and he goes to the temple of the god of war every week to pray, if it is fake, it is impossible for the temple of the god of war not to know.

In the same way, if the other party has colluded with other evil gods, then the God of War Temple should also find out.

Unless......

The Temple of the God of War knew everything.

Even, everything this viscount did was the will of the 'God of War' that the God of War Temple believed in!

If that's the case, I'm afraid that the viscount has spent a lot of effort to gain the approval of these evil gods.

As for how the viscount gained the trust of the evil gods, Qin Ran didn't care too much.

At this moment, he is more concerned about whether Bol has come to Sika City, and whether these changes are expected by the 'brokers'.

Or is it part of the broker's plan?

If so, what would the 'brokers' want?

And, of course, the ......

Calamity!

Thinking of that Calamity Lady, Qin Ran's brows couldn't help frowning.
