Chapter 33: Trickery IV
【Wanghai Expedition Road Bosang】
After a nonsensical meal, Ike was taken to a gorgeous lounge, and it must be said that Duke Bob's hospitality was very good, not only to give Ike a full meal, but also to let him sleep on such a soft mattress, although outside this lounge there was a group of fish-man soldiers guarding the door with hideous faces......
Ike didn't bother to pay attention to the hideous-looking guys, after greeting Sean butler for a while, he quickly threw himself on the bed and stretched a big lazy waist, Sean looked at Ike with a wry smile, closed the door, Ike's expression suddenly became serious when he closed the door, and began to look around the structure of the room.
"Is this a kind of house arrest?" Ike muttered, he found that although this room looked gorgeous, there were indeed some unfriendly things hidden, such as the oil paintings hanging on the wall with faint magic fluctuations, and several oil paintings joined together to form a field like a magic circle, in this field, Ike could clearly feel that his magical power was suppressed.
"It seems that this Duke Bob is not a kind person." Ike smiled, then placed the orb in the palm of his hand, and a group of dragon figures swam back and forth inside, with a glow like fireflies in the middle.
When the spirit bead was slightly confused, the suppression of the surrounding magic array was obviously much smaller, Ike tried to operate his magic power, and found that it had basically returned to normal operation, and the suppression became very weak, he got up from the bed, walked to the wall, gritted his teeth and scolded: "Damn, even the wall can block the transmission of magic power, this is a prison at all." ”
After Ike finished speaking, he sighed, walked back to the bed, and sat down quietly, since he couldn't get out, it was better to calm down and cultivate, he sat quietly on the bed, feeling the slow improvement brought to him by the spirit bead, and after a while he found that his soul seemed to have entered a new stage, and it seemed that he had entered the bottleneck period of the "Ruoxu" stage that Haotian said.
Ike always felt that his cultivation was much more difficult than others, because he couldn't find a direction to practice magic, and he was not born with a clear direction of his cultivation like Gina and Donnie, and was assisted by an S-level magic source, he has been slowly improving his soul power with the help of spirit beads, followed by improving his magic power.
"Feeling...... I don't have a goal, I feel uncomfortable. Ike scratched his head, looking helpless, the faint light emitted by the spirit bead enveloped his body, he calmed down, and realized this mysterious realm: "Maybe...... It will take some time, it doesn't matter, who knows how long they plan to put me under house arrest. ”
After Ike finished speaking, a huge soul power poured out from the spirit bead, and a concrete dragon gradually rose from the spirit bead, Ike looked at the figure of this giant dragon, completely stunned on the bed, because the dragon was obviously Haotian.
"Congratulations, Your Excellency, you only need a few days of recuperation to be able to reach the realm of 'abundance', and by then, your strength will be very different, and there is also a very gratifying thing, the contemptible person can already take a short time from the spirit bead to communicate with you in this life." Haotian's words made Ike feel very relieved.
"So, do I still have to practice for two days?" Ike asked, the orb in his hand still glowing.
Seeing Haotian's somewhat serious look, and the undiminished Long Wei also told him that it was completely unjustifiable not to cultivate, Ike still obediently sat cross-legged on the bed, using his magic power, and nourishing his soul through the power of the spirit bead.
Outside the house, Sean ordered the guards to leave, he walked lightly and had a very steady temperament. Sean walked to Duke Bob's bedroom, saw Duke Bob who was practicing, bowed slightly and said:
"Lord Duke, that young man, has settled down."
"Yes, Sean, I hope he can really settle down, that old guy Rowan really doesn't stop, after so many years, he still wants to meddle in the affairs of the upper class?" Duke Bob's voice was low, and he was surrounded by a light blue light, and the eye of the ocean at the center of his eyebrows glowed purple, and he stood out from the crowd in this blue.
However, he didn't know that today's society is different from what it was more than a decade ago. Duke Bob's words made Sean smile mysteriously, and Duke Bob slowly opened his eyes and looked at his hands, as if full of power.
"What are you going to do, my lord, the apostle?" Sean finally asks a crucial question, and Bob smiles when he hears Sean's question.
"After all, that's the Venerable Apostle, and if she's of little use to us anymore, let's just let her go decently." Bob said, Sean's smile frozen.
"My lord, is it possible that you want to make Fili an apostle...... Kill it. ”
"Idiot, the Apostle is a soul body, and it is completely unrealistic to kill it, but it may be possible to devour it." Duke Bob's tone was full of longing: "Her soul body must be very nutritious......"
Maybe he didn't notice it, Sean's face suddenly flashed a trace of killing intent, although I don't know where that killing intent came from, but it was indeed a touch of killing intent, just when Duke Bob mentioned Devouring the Apostles, a disgust clearly surged in his heart, a disgust that seemed to come from the soul.
……
In the dungeon of the castle, Ace walked towards the gloom with difficulty, in this dungeon there is a magic array that suppresses the soul body, Ace never imagined that such a domineering magic array would appear in this kind of place, he tried his best to get rid of the shackles of the magic array, however, the closer he got to the middle position, the more terrifying the suppression he received.
"In this kind of place, how can there be something more disgusting than the group of onmyoji in the east!" Ace gritted his teeth and moved towards the gloomy light step by step, his expression extremely grim, and a vast amount of fluctuations welled up from his body to resist the oppressive power.
Ace looked at the figure in the ghostly light, the void soul body actually became condensed, there was an inexplicable liquid swirling in his eyes, and in the clenched teeth, Chad relaxed, and burst out with a name: "Fili!" ”
[2,000 years ago, the catastrophe of the original continent]
The sky was cloudy with a solemn aura, the sun had found no place on the earth, barren flowers bloomed everywhere, and scorched earth spread across cities and villages. Under the shadow of the God of Destruction, Jean, everything in the original continent seemed to be covered with a layer of gray-white dust.
"Young people...... Good work...... Get us out. As the boy passed through the village, he was stopped by a middle-aged man in ragged clothes, who was carrying a child who, without knowing what was happening, was sleeping soundly in his father's arms, and whose sweet sleeping face did not match the atmosphere at all.
Skye hesitated, thinking of what he was going to do, he couldn't help but gasp, he looked at the two people in front of him, let out a sigh, looked away, and prepared to continue his journey.
"Wait, Skye." A soft voice came from his side, and he followed it to see that it was Fili, who had blue hair, that is, his sister. Although the Dream Spirit Clan is scarce, they have a marriage contract and friendship with the Sea Spirit Clan, and Fili is Skye's cousin.
"Take them with you......" Fili's words were like a clear spring, and the pity that sparkled in his bright eyes made Skye feel extremely moved. Skye shook his head, looking helpless.
"Sister, you're still so soft-hearted, we're going to face that guy Jean, aren't we going to die for nothing with the two of them unarmed humans?" Skye's words surprised the two humans very much, the shadow brought by Jean has shrouded the entire original continent, this name is already known to everyone, and now when I hear that someone wants to trouble Jean, I naturally feel very amazing.
"It's okay, just put them in a nearby town shelter, and we'll meet Clarkett there in a moment." Fili smiled, her smile bloomed on her pure face, and the bridge of her stilted nose was arrogantly erect, with a noble temperament.
At Fili's request, Skye finally relented, he whistled, and an illusory giant bird flew from the sky, it was the contract beast of the Dream Spirit Clan, the Cloud Dream Eagle, and the four of them rode on the eagle and rushed to the nearest shelter.
"Why does my sister care so much about others? Why do you always like to reach out to others? On the way, Skye couldn't help but ask Fili, "Why do we always help others when we are already in danger?" ”
Skye ...... The power of God is unleashed by us, the courtyard of God is opened by us, the cholera and calamities of the people on the road have a great deal to do with us, as we, who are called the Holy Ones, we must have compassion for everyone, and if we do not save when we see death, then there is no difference compared to Jean, who only knows destruction. Skye listened quietly to Fili's words as the haze of the sky began to lift, and where the clouds were gone, beams of golden light shone on the earth.
Skye looked at Fili quietly, her face was golden with the sun, the pink color did not diminish in the slightest, she was smiling, it seemed that she had been laughing, it seemed that that smile had never stopped.
She put her hand on Skye's head, although Anne had done it before, but Skye didn't hesitate to beat Anne that time, because Anne's emotion was contemptuous, and he could feel it. At this time, Fili's mood was compassionate.
God has given us strength to protect more people. No human existence is worthless, and we, the saints, have strength from heaven and life from all things, and we have no reason to despise anyone's life. ”
"So, Skye, we, the Sages, are here to guard something." Looking into Fili's eyes, Skye suddenly smiled, his smile was innocent, without a trace of impurities, Fili was a little confused by his laughter, and couldn't help but ask him what he wanted to laugh at.
"It's okay, it's okay, my sister wants to protect every life in this world, right, then my sister's life and smile will be guarded by me." Skye touched her lips and smiled.
Fili, who was stunned opposite him, also smiled for some reason.
……
"Two thousand years ago...... I couldn't keep my promise with my sister! Let you die under Jean's fireball, now! I'm going to get you out! Ace roared hoarsely, and he had to fight with all his might in the face of this overwhelming oppression, just as he was about to approach Fili. Dozens of figures appeared all around, staring at Ace with hollow eyes full of murderous intent.
"Guards! Let the horses come! Ace had an extra dagger in his hand, and it was like a demon's fangs, shining with a blazing silver light, cold as ice.
