Chapter 31: The Return
What does it feel like to be watched by thousands of eyes?
All eyes on it?
Excited, exhilarating?
The answer will be numerous. Pen Γ fun Γ Pavilion www. ο½ο½ο½ο½ο½ο½ γ ο½ο½ο½ο½
But what would it be if these thousands of eyes came from the same body, and this body was terrifying and hideous, exuding the predatory aura of the superior?
There is only one answer: fear!
That's what Conti is at the moment.
Conti's mind went blank, and all that was left was the strange mouth that was getting closer and closer.
The fangs and teeth that swirled like a chainsaw made Conti's hairs blow up.
The breath of death came to the face.
The stiff body not only did not return to its original form in such an aura, but even became more and more cold to the bone.
Her whole being was 'frozen' in place.
And then......
It's dark.
Qin Ran's back blocked the colorful light that made her heart palpitate.
"Go back!"
A low snort with a command.
Conti saw the monster that made her heart palpitate, and disappeared in front of her eyes with great obedience.
"Is that the 'King Beast'?"
Condy muttered to herself.
This is the second time Qin Ran has heard desire. The other name of the Beast of Hope, but he didn't ask immediately, because there was something more worthy of his attention in front of him.
Feeding the desire of [Flower of Emida]. The Hopeful Beast has become more aggressive, but ...... but became more and more obedient to his commands.
This is not a delusion.
In the past, Qin Ran summoned desire. When the beast of hope, the two sides also communicated.
Although desired. The beast of hope can only give a little simple meaning, but when it encounters a command that is different from its own will, desire. The Beast of Hope will also be dissatisfied.
But not just now!
With his command, desire. And so the beast of hope dispersed.
The abnormal situation made Qin Ran's eyes firmly fixed on [Flower of Emida].
"It's the power of these flowers!"
Qin Ran is extremely sure of this.
Speculation also arises.
"Temporary taming?"
"Or is it long?"
"Are there any after-effects?"
Face desire. The beast of hope is this kind of self-desire. The monster born of hope and emotion, Qin Ran didn't dare to be careless at all, he didn't want to be a flesh and blood puppet.
Qin Ran examined himself carefully.
There is no prompt.
The beating of the two hearts is also strong and powerful, and there is no abnormality either.
Qin Ran breathed a sigh of relief slightly.
But he didn't completely let go of his mind.
"What is the 'King Beast'?"
Qin Ran turned around and looked at Conti, who was still palpitating.
He wants more information from the other person's mouth.
"The 'King Beast' is one of the symbols of the 'Emperor'!"
"This is what we know among the guardians of the ancient city, but more than that, we don't know anything."
Conti said.
Then, he looked at Qin Ran with a strange gaze.
Obviously, Conti thought of Qin Ran's identity as a 'royal family', coupled with his desire to 'obey' Qin Ran. Beast of Hope......
"Will you be the 'Emperor'?"
Conti asked.
At this moment, the former bounty hunter and guardian of the ancient city of Aesop had already thrown aside the anger in his heart.
She needed to confirm something that was extremely important to her.
"The guardians of the ancient city of Aesop have an obligation of allegiance to the 'Emperor'?"
Qin Ran asked.
"You know?!"
Conti exclaimed.
Looking at Conti's surprised face, Qin Ran shook his head.
Of course he didn't know.
However, such a thing is not difficult to guess.
If you connect the relationship between the ancient city of Aesop and the Nick Dynasty, as well as the other party's cautious expression just now, it is basically clear at a glance.
"I'm not the 'Emperor' and don't need your allegiance!"
"You don't need to worry at all!"
With these words, Qin Ran called the others to this secret room, and he instructed Rehard and Lie to dig out the 'tree' covered with [Flower of Emida] and the soil near the roots.
"Bring it to the wagon!"
"Protect it!"
Qin Ran said to Rehard, Lie, and the three xenomorph knights.
In fact, there was no need for Qin Ran's orders, after seeing this tree, the three xenomorph knights already knew what to do.
After all, it's something that can save lives!
And how can they ignore it.
Aside from this 'tree', the other items in the secret room were not of high value to Qin Ran.
Those jewels are just ordinary jewels.
Some seemingly quaint sword weapons are also ornaments, and none of them have special powers.
After sighing a little disappointed, Qin Ran turned around and walked out of the secret room.
"Wait!"
β25β¦β¦ Your Highness and so on! β
Conti chased after Qin Ran, and his title was also deliberately changing.
"You follow the convoy back to the Karl Hart barracks!"
"I need to be one step ahead!"
Qin Ran's footsteps did not stop.
When he walked out of the hall, Qin Ran immediately used the [Night Stalker Token].
Herod!
With a neighing, a red-eyed black war horse rushed out of the shadows.
Qin Ran turned over and got on his horse, and disappeared in an instant, leaving Conti standing in place in a daze.
"The red-eyed black war horse that comes with the shadows?!"
The guardian of the ancient city, who had thought of something, looked stupidly at the direction in which Qin Ran had disappeared.
Not only the guardian of the ancient city, but also the three xenomorph knights.
"Calamity in the shadows!"
"Lord of the Dark!"
"Lava is armor, and the giant sword tears the heavens and the earth!"
"When I return, the monsters in the void will roar again, and the horses in the shadows will gallop again!"
"Despicable rebels!"
"Please wait for me!"
"I'm back!"
β¦β¦
It's like a long poem, and it's like a war song.
Lie and the three xenoknights sang at the same time.
No practice is required.
Because, they have been practiced tens of thousands of times.
From the moment they are born, their parents tell them what tone they should sing in and how they should treat the one who has been sealed.
"Your Majesty!"
Lie and the three xenos fell to their knees, shouting in the direction where Qin Ran had disappeared.
Conti hesitated.
In the end, he also chose to kneel.
In the secrecy left behind by the guardians of the ancient city of Aesop, there are similar rumors.
Not as detailed as Xenomorph, but it also lets Conti know what to do.
β¦β¦
A slight heat came from within the [Armor of Excellence].
That was the temperature emanating from the badge [Lionheart King] that Qin Ran had stored closely.
Qin Ran, who felt something, glanced back at the Xiudelin Castle, which had long since disappeared.
And then......
He jerked ahead!
There is the direction of the Karl Hart barracks.
Just as he sensed the upside down of Delin Castle, he also sensed the changes in the Calhat barracks.
Compared to the vagueness of Shudrin Castle, the Karl Hart Barracks is clear.
The heavy walls fell.
The thriving streets are in shambles.
The roar of artillery rang out again and again.
The remnants of xenos struggle with the arrangement of the core area.
The wounded Iddell stood in one of the fortifications, his face menacing as he raised his rifle at the sudden attack.
Behind it, one wounded after another was carried into the fortified halls.
And in the hall......
Wounded everywhere.
There are xenomorphs, and there are humans.
A xenomorph with only the upper half of his body remaining, even after receiving treatment, is already on the verge of dying.
The passage of life makes it trance-like to delirium.
Its life began to flow backwards like a marquee.
In the end, it stayed at the long poem and war song that his parents taught him with a smile on their faces.
The long poems and war songs that should have been forgotten are so clear at this time.
Involuntarily, the xenomorph opened his mouth and sang softly.
"Calamity in the shadows!"
"Lord of the Dark!"
"Lava is armor, and the giant sword tears the heavens and the earth!"
"When I return, the monsters in the void will roar again, and the horses in the shadows will gallop again!"
"Despicable rebels!"
"Please wait for me!"
"I ......"
β¦β¦
Before the singing was finished, the xenos were silent.
But this long poem and war song did not stop.
The injured xenos in the hall seemed to have a tacit understanding, and spoke at the same time at this moment.
They sing.
Voices came from inside the hall.
Not only is it audible clearly, but it also vibrates the sky.
Thousands of voices converged into oneβ
"I'm back!"
β¦β¦
Suddenly, [Lionheart] changed from slightly hot to piping hot!
