Volume 1: The Tide of Dusk Chapter 17: Sleeping in a Fantasy (1)
"You, at first glance, you seem to be quite polite, but when you do it, you are really generous. ”
The young man hunched over the spear that hovered in the center of the hall.
The soft blonde hair was draped over his shoulders, and the turquoise pupils reflected the body of the spear that shimmered with purple light, full of curiosity.
"Stay away from it, and even if you touch it, the energy will engulf you in an instant. ”
"Haha, are you concerned about me?"
His outstretched index finger stopped a few centimeters in front of the gun, and when he heard the warning coming from behind him, he withdrew his hand and turned around with a relieved smile.
"It has nothing to do with me whether you live or die. ”
Eun's tone was calm and calm, and he held two glasses, the light brown puree of Lagavulin slowly swaying in the glasses, reflecting a deep color in the orange light.
"Tsk, after all these years, you still can't get used to the wine here?"
The blonde man took a quick sip, and the taste of the thick smoke mixed with sea salt instantly rushed to the tip of his nose, choking him slightly frowned.
"Seriously, I recommend you try baijiu, there's a local one here, Silver Star, that's the name, the taste is much stronger than this thing. ”
"I'm not like you, you can do as you go anywhere, I can't do it. ”
"Shouldn't you be where Kai is, where is your home?"
He said to Eun with a half-smile, and took another sip of wine from his glass, and although the strong sea-style smell made him feel more intimate, the pure alcohol concoction still made him a hundred uncomfortable.
"What's so important about home? ”
Eun drank the wine from the glass, walked to the round table, opened the pear-shaped bottle, and filled the glass again.
The so-called home has gradually blurred in his memory, and he can't even remember the appearance of the main road, of course, after such a long time, there must have changed a long time ago.
The only thing that was clear was the old church, and a medieval-style building like this would have been preserved as an attraction, right? But the flower field at the entrance was hard to say, and he didn't think the government there would be so sentimental.
He took another big sip of wine into his throat, and the spicy sensation spread all over his throat, this feeling he didn't hate, although he didn't know that he still belonged to the category of human beings, but the love of suffering in human bones seemed to be perfectly inherited in his body.
For example, drinking, such as chasing feelings, being entangled by sourceless demands and distractions all the time, can make people feel that they are truly alive.
Before he met Kai, he never felt that there was any difference between the ground and the underground, the living creatures stepped on the ground, the dead creatures were wrapped in the land under their feet, and the ground was like a double-layered lens, containing the positive and negative extremes.
He walked towards the levitating spear, the purple mist was not as thick as when the Qi summoned it, revealing a gorgeous and unusual body, almost every inch was embellished with intricate gold filigree carvings, and the tip of the spear was made of completely silver metal, extending forward in a spiral, forming a silver vortex tens of centimeters long.
Slowly stroking the body of the gun between his fingers, as if recognizing the person in front of him, the body of the gun emitted a spiritual hum, slowly resonating with it between the strokes of Eun's slender fingers.
"It's not fair! Why don't I even touch it!"
The blond man protested indignantly, he was particularly interested in the spear.
"I'm here for your good. ”
He withdrew his hand and gently tossed the glass in his right hand towards the tip of the gun.
At a position where the glass was only a few centimeters away from the tip of the gun, as if sensing an unknown threat, violent fluctuations swept out from the spiral of the tip of the gun, enveloping all the glasses that were about to touch.
In the blink of an eye, the thick glass glass shattered into extremely fine pieces in this energy fluctuation, floating on the walnut floor, shining with a sparkling sheen.
"I'll go, is this thing so strong?"
The man looked at the spear that had fallen silent again, and the curiosity in his eyes slowly replaced by greed, and the look he almost drooled in Eun's eyes was too funny.
"Don't fight the idea of this thing, Brionac is a weapon made of origins, the head of the legendary four artifacts, you should die. ”
"Cut, are you embarrassed to say me? This thing doesn't belong to you, and you just borrowed the power of the Origin Document to barely use it. The man pursed his lips disdainfully.
"That's right, my ability can't command the Origin, so I'm going to end this as soon as possible, even if it's the Origin Instrument, it's impossible to continue this state forever. ”
"So you gathered the power of the four origins, and even did not hesitate to expose the location of the magic circle, in order to attract those people?"
"Or else?"
Eun stroked her gold-rimmed glasses and looked up at the window.
The purple beams of light on the balcony on the second floor were releasing energy towards the skydome, sustaining the giant barrier that covered the entire city.
The energy of the four beams of light in the four corners of the city is also infected by this purple light, which has become an important energy source to maintain the purple light curtain.
"That man trusted you so much, even handed over the serum and the Origin Document to you, and now you want to use him for irrelevant things, aren't you afraid of incurring his wrath?"
The casualness and frivolity in the blonde man's tone gradually dissipated, and the eyes that looked at Eun gradually became serious, although he didn't care how the man in front of him did it, but the thought of the possible consequences of doing so still made him feel a little afraid.
"I know you're all doing this for enlightenment, but is it really worth it, with your and that person's abilities, isn't there really any other solution?"
"That person?"
Eun smiled.
"All that man wants is to turn the entire city into bones, the Origin Vessel made up of Kai's body, and the boy. ”
"You mean. ”
"He never wanted to help me achieve my long-cherished wish, and I was only at his disposal knowing it. ”
"I don't understand you anymore. ”
"What is there that I don't understand, a simple relationship of mutual use, he needs my strength, I need his strength, even though everything I have done for him is just one link in a huge chain. ”
The blonde man listened to Eun's narration and scratched his head with some irritation.
That's why he can't deal with these scheming old monsters!" he thought helplessly.
"Speaking of which, what do I want. ”
"Peace of mind, it's all here. ”
He pulled a small manual from his bosom and threw it over.
En took the manual and flipped a few pages lightly, and the dense text records were mixed with photos of people with high definition.
"The ferrymen, are they the rats who have been active behind the scenes? ”
"That's right, it's a group of people who use their abilities through spiritual deeds, of course, who is the biggest driving force behind them has always been a mystery. It seems like it came decades after that war, if I'm not mistaken. ”
"Forget it, whoever it is, as long as they can bring the people I want the most here. ”
"In this way, what you want and what that person wants, it's really a perfect conflict together, a friendly reminder, that person will never let you go. ”
"It doesn't matter. ”
Eun closed the manual and put it in the pocket of his trousers, and the purple curtain that penetrated his eyes became more and more intense.
"From the moment I decided to save her, the price was no longer on my radar. ”
"You really. ”
The blonde man sighed and looked at the handsome man in a neat and well-dressed suit, not knowing whether it was admiration or pity in his eyes.
"It's a gentleman. ”
The helicopter's propeller slowly stopped, and everything in the surrounding radius of tens of kilometers was in full view on the rooftops of one of the few hundred-story buildings in the city.
The view is second only to the top floor of the financial center, but it is in an area with great access and many more skeletons than this high-rise building in the east of the city center.
"That's right, you can see the purple pillar of light here. ”
Eagle Falcon said into the walkie-talkie, the walkie-talkie in his hand is an old-fashioned model, and it also needs to be manually connected to the channel, so even if the signal of the entire city and the An system is completely lost, it will not affect the use.
The ferryman was better prepared for the event than they did, as if they knew in advance that it was going to happen.
"We just do what we are told, and we don't know anything else. ”
At this time, Xiao Chen, who was still on the helicopter at the time, spread his hand and shook his head, judging from the experience of the falcon, it didn't look like he was lying, and there seemed to be no need to lie.
It seemed that these questions needed to be answered at least by a person of Ni Luo's level, and he looked in the direction of the purple light, and the multi-storey building located in the villa area in the center of the city was clearly seen by his ice-blue right eye.
In the terrace on the second floor, there seemed to be a four-colored energy rune surging, surrounding the book with purple light in the center, and it was from that book that the pillar of light that soared into the sky emanated.
Looking at it this way, that villa should be the base camp of the wreckage.
Judging by the intensity of that energy, it must have been the kingdom or the wisdom of one of them, and with the help of the ferryman's intelligence, they did get close to the vicinity of the one who started it all.
"It's really strange, it's clear that they have the advantage, and there is no reason to stand still. Lao Zhang muttered to himself with some doubts, he looked at the dense corpses hundreds of meters under his feet, and his scalp was numb, even if the whole city was full of people rushing to the street, the scene was nothing more than that.
"It's unclear why they didn't take the initiative, but what is certain is that the current wreckage was transformed by ordinary people in the city. ”
"How is that possible!"
Lin Xiaojia shook the big sword in his hand in disbelief when he heard Xiao Chen's astonishing speech.
If you want to convert a normal person into a skeleton, you need a sufficient amount of serum, and the high-level skeleton is even more troublesome, requiring the individual who is injected with the serum to have the potential of an unawakened ability, which is one of the reasons why the high-level skeleton with the ability is so rare.
And if you want to turn all the people of a city into corpses, it will take not only a huge amount of serum, but also a very large-scale operation, and no matter how covert they are, they will not be able to do all this under the surveillance of the Eastern District Operators.
"It's true, of course, it's just an illusion yet, if you leave this circle alone, once the energy operation matures, all these illusions will be manifested as established facts at that moment. ”
"Are you sure? This is the information you have been gathering?" Lao Zhang's tone actually panicked, although these words were a little vague in Lin Xiaojia's ears, but for Lao Zhang, who was specialized in the spiritual realm, it was like a bolt from the blue.
