Section 29 Ins and Outs
"It turns out that Abaddon is Di Gao Geng......" The old man's cloudy eyes suddenly lit up with a glimmer of essence: "Then all this should have been planned by him a long time ago." I was so deluded that I would have listened to his lies. ”
"Di Gaogeng is good at confusing people." Duran pointed to his heart and said calmly, "There are countless people who have been bewitched by him. ”
"If a man does not have demons in his heart, he cannot be seduced." The old man shook his head and said, "I still can't figure out why Di Gaogeng did this. What good is it for him to build a magic sword? In fact, he hasn't been seen since the magic sword was forged, and it seems to me that this sword has never been in his eyes. ”
"His purpose is simple." Duran said, "This town, a long, long time ago, must have been part of the Fernand Continent, right? ”
The old man frowned: "Of course, the small town of Sarnia is part of the Fernan's continent, otherwise where did you come from?" ”
"It used to be." Duran corrected, "But not anymore, the whole town has been dragged into the fog, and it is currently between the Evil Spirit Plane and the Fernand Continent - maybe closer to the Demon Plane. This place is no longer a human habit, but more like a gathering place for evil spirits. In fact, we've always had a name for this kind of place -- the land of evil. ”
"Wicked Lands?" The old man's eyes widened, "This is impossible, although Saña is only a small town, it is a place that is favored by the Lord of the Dawn. Although this town does not have a strong military force, there is at least one Seraphic in the church in the center of the town! No matter how powerful Di Gaogeng is, it is impossible to go against the Lord of Dawn! How can a place with a Seraphic Angel be polluted by evil? ”
"Seraph?" Duran was taken aback, he couldn't imagine that the origin of the small town of Sarnia was so big!
Is there a church in the middle of the town?
Duran seemed to hear the twelve bells of midnight, and faintly he saw a dark figure hovering above the church cross—a vicious monster with long wings growing behind it, black and cold, with a sparkling sparkle of death......
"Huh? What's going on? Duran awoke from his hallucinations. He shook his head, the strange fantasy just now seemed to invade his mind out of thin air, if it weren't for his tenacity, I am afraid he would not be able to struggle for a while.
"Tell me, young man, what is going on in the small town of Sania?" The old man asked a little nervously, although he swore to tell Duran that there was a Seraphic Angel here, but he also had some uneasiness in his heart - if there was really a Seraph, then why would he keep letting the existence of the Demon Sword go unnoticed?
Duran froze and recounted what he knew. Of course, he concealed the existence of the Supreme Council and the evil contract, but said that he was an adventurer who came here by accident, and had heard the story of the magic sword, and came to check it out out out of curiosity.
"You mean, the whole town is in ruins? Every place is infested with the undead? The old man looked at Duran in disbelief.
Duran nodded.
The old man stood up abruptly, walked up and down the room with his hands behind his back, and stopped suddenly for a long time: "Tell me about your purpose, young man, I don't believe that you have risked your life to come here just to satisfy your curiosity. ”
Duran smiled helplessly: "Well, in fact, my purpose is very simple, that is, to destroy this magic sword. You may not believe it, but this is the truth, and you can understand that I was entrusted with this task. ”
"Mission?" The old man frowned, obviously not very satisfied with Duran's words. However, he didn't delve into it, but immediately said: "The magic sword is about to awaken, even if you want to, you can't leave." If you really want to destroy him, you can only stay in this room while he is awake. Aside from this room, the rest of the building is filled with ghost babies, and the minions of Oppenpheus won't let you go. ”
"Those ghost babies are no match for me." Duran looked at Biyombo and smiled slightly: "The only thing that makes me jealous is the magic sword itself, and you are its forger, you must know its weaknesses." ”
"Oberface has no weaknesses." The old man shook his head and said, "Although he is only a half-finished product, he has forever lost the potential to be on a par with an artifact, but as a weapon, his strength is comparable to that of a master in the early stage." I didn't feel the breath of fire in you, which means that you haven't even reached the Golden Rank, and you can't be his opponent. ”
"It has to have weaknesses." Duran said calmly, "I promised Miss Amus that I would take her out of this place when I defeated the magic sword. ”
"Leaving here?" The mood of the old man has changed.
"Well, I'll take her back to the Finan Continent, and I'll find a clever witch to lift the curse for her. She can continue to live like an ordinary person. In order to get the help of the old man, Duran had to lie a little. The price to pay for taking a person from the evil land is very huge, and the current Duran obviously can't afford it, but he promised Amus that he would take her away from this place within a year, so it's not a lie to talk to the old man like this, it's just a blur of time.
Biyombo didn't pay attention to the ambiguity in Duran's words, and a deep look appeared on his face: "If you can bring Amus back to the Fernand Continent, I will be very grateful. But Obermouth really had no weaknesses. If there is a weakness, it is that as a magic sword that has not yet fully evolved, he cannot act on his own. He can only command the ghost babies to attack the enemy, and in addition to that, it can also use some psychic spells. It's very difficult to ruin it. ”
"Young man, give up this unrealistic idea." The old man advised, "If you could take Amus directly back to Fernan, I would give you some gifts—not the things you took in my storeroom, of course." ”
Duran's face turned red, he was wearing at least three things collected in Biyombo's storage room, even if the old man was dizzy, he wouldn't be able to see it, right? It's just that the old blacksmith's measurements are much larger than Duran imagined, at least he didn't bother with Duran about that.
"These pieces of equipment were built when I was younger, and the reason I'm still alive after all these years is just to keep an eye on Oberphes's movements, they don't mean anything to me anymore, and it doesn't matter if you take them. You can get them to prove that you're not lying, at least you did meet Amus, and she willingly gave you the key. As if seeing Duran's look of embarrassment, the old man smiled and said, "But in fact, I have a good thing that can be used as a reward for saving Amus." ”
With that, the blacksmith took out a pair of glittering crystal slippers from his bosom and placed them in front of Duran.
Durán was suddenly a little dumbfounded: "The good thing you said is this pair of crystal slippers?" ”
The old man smiled faintly: "Don't underestimate this pair of crystal shoes, this thing comes from the hand of the craftsman god, and it is a rare thing in the world." Abaddon gave it to Amus in order to get her to come back early on the night of the performance—only then would she run into the scene where I forged my sword. ”
"That's ...... so"
All of this is a conspiracy of Di Gaogen, the evil god is very fond of playing tricks on mortals, just like the members of the circus, Biyombo and Amus are also the objects of Di Gaogeng's play. The general outline of the story has been concluded, and it looks like this:
Blacksmith Biyombo was originally a skilled craftsman, but some accidents forced him to take his daughter away and settle in the ordinary and special town of Sania. As an extraordinary blacksmith, Biyombo must have been extraordinary in his prime, and the father and daughter lived in a small town of Sasania. However, the power of evil spirits gradually infects the land, and all kinds of evil forces continue to corrode people's hearts, and similar things happen everywhere in the town - the corpse thief Kasa is greedy for life and steals corpses to eat, and a large number of skeletons and zombies come out of the cemetery; The tailor Peron was tricked into becoming an evil spirit, and eventually killed the young girl Anna and the Schubert brothers because of twisted thoughts; The circus people changed their minds, and Sonny the Clown's death may have been just an accident, but it became the fuse of everything, and under the indulgence of Di Gaogeng, they poisoned each other, and finally ended up in a tragedy......
And Biyombo's casting of the magic sword was also carried out at the instigation of Abaddon, that is, Di Gaogeng. Di Gao Geng, who was a guest, must have sensed some dark side in the seemingly calm blacksmith's heart—there were many of these dark factors, and Duran could come up with many of them just by thinking about them: such as Biyombo's wife, who was still not mentioned, that is, Amus's mother. Did he forge this magic sword to avenge his wronged wife? Of course, there may have been other factors - in short, the dark side of the blacksmith's heart was stirred, and for this reason, with the help of Di Gaogeng, the blacksmith began to use his skillful skills to forge the magic sword.
Biyombo had also mentioned earlier that, according to the original conception, Oppenpheus was supposed to be a magic sword comparable to an artifact. Such a weapon is obviously not something that a blacksmith can design by Biyongbo, and a considerable part of its drawings and materials should have been provided by Di Gaogeng. Trapped in hatred, the blacksmith was unable to break free from the demon barrier in his heart, and finally completed the magic sword step by step. And at the last moment, Di Gaogeng should have lied to Biyombo.
Di Gaogeng told Biyombo that the final step of forging the magic sword would require a dozen babies as sacrifices, and Biyombo, who still had a conscience, would definitely refuse this, but when the evil god offered a dozen babies with his own hands, the evil in his heart swelled again - the blacksmith threw a dozen babies into the flames......
But in fact, the blood of a dozen babies still could not satisfy the greedy Oppenfis, what he needed was the head of a fresh and innocent girl!
Di Goeng hid this fact from Biyombo, and he did not reveal it until the last moment, when Amus returned home ahead of Biyombo and witnessed it with his own eyes - she broke in.
An innocent girl is placed in front of Biyombo.
Di Gaogeng's conspiracy was truly completed, and he wanted Biyombo to kill his daughter with his own hands.
This is the real sin. (To be continued.) )
