Episode 491 Cannibalism
Although Tang Ke was hard-hearted, he also frowned, and his heart became very conflicted. He thinks that the robot No. 5 is quite interesting, and he doesn't want to see No. 5 turn into a pile of scrap metal, but if No. 5 never dies, sooner or later it will become an obstacle for him to seize the Fountain of Death, so his mood is conflicted, he doesn't want No. 5 to have an accident, and he hopes that No. 5 will simply be scrapped.
Five raised his head crunched and muttered, "Emily, what did you say, what's wrong with me?" ”
"No, it's okay, you're fine, maybe there's the Fountain of Death behind this door, and you don't have to touch these doors of life anymore." Emily looked forward to it. But when she spoke, her tone was obviously unconfident.
The previous two areas were so dangerous, this gate of life will definitely not simply let everyone go, there will definitely be more gates of life ahead! Now that there is a gate here that takes half of a person's life, there is a possibility that there will be a door ahead that will take all the lives of a person!
If there were such a cruel door, people would lose their lives if they touched it.
Donk couldn't help but think of the words engraved on the first door: "This is the ultimate path to the fountain of death, and if you want to save your life, you must first offer your life, and only with this realization can you enter the door." That's what that passage refers to.
The Resurrection Fountain was originally an artifact used to resurrect people, but before obtaining this artifact, it had to pay the price of countless people's lives. In the process of collecting these springs, Donk has witnessed too many lives and deaths.
In a little while, he will most likely witness more deaths, but no matter what awaits him in front of him, he will have to keep going.
"Alright, let's move on. Like you said, maybe there's the Fountain of Death behind the door. Donk took a deep breath, took a big step forward, and walked in front.
Emily swallowed. glanced at Five, then gritted his teeth and followed Tangk.
Five didn't realize what was happening to him and quickly followed. It was moving significantly slower than it had been before, and it made a loud noise with each leg lift, and occasionally black smoke spewed out of its joints.
Everyone walked a long way forward, and the same hall appeared in front of them again, and now when they saw this kind of hall, it was as if they were seeing hell in the underworld. The good things Emily had prayed for before didn't happen. The hall was empty, there was no fountain of death at all, and there was only a closed black iron door waiting for them coldly!
Emily slowed down, as if walking towards the execution ground, and walked towards the Black Gate, where she tried to avoid approaching the Black Gate, but had to walk over again. But no matter how slowly she walked, there was a moment when she walked to the place. She walked from the door of the hall to the black door. It took ten minutes, but I finally got there. From afar, her gaze involuntarily fell on the words engraved on the black door and interpreted it.
"What's engraved on it?" Donk asked.
"I only know a little about this ancient language. I don't know that much, and I don't know exactly what is carved on this door. Emily's face somehow turned extremely pale, and she shook her head.
Donk squinted slightly. Caught the obvious change in Emily's demeanor, feeling that Emily was lying, but she didn't rush to pierce it.
"If you can't decipher it. I just pushed the door open, and I guess this door is just like the previous ones, and it can be pushed open with a light push. No. 5 volunteered, and very consciously took the initiative to step forward, stretched out his hand to push the black door, and pushed the black door open. This black door was just like the previous black door, and a ball of light came out the moment it was pushed open, and it was shining directly on the body of Five.
In the white light, I saw that No. 5's body instantly collapsed, the surface became rusty, as if it had been corroded by sulfuric acid, and there was a violent noise inside, a large amount of fire and black smoke came out of it, and the lights in the eyes flashed several times before falling silent. The white light flashed and disappeared, and Number Five fell to his knees with a pop, and his lower body was hit by the ground, and it shattered into several pieces, as if it were paper paste.
"It's so sad...... It's so hard...... I'm afraid I'll never be able to fix it again...... Unfortunately, I was unable to complete this mission and cannot continue to walk with you. Five's horn made a hoarse sound, which grew quieter and quieter, and then stopped abruptly.
Seeing this, Emily hurriedly created a whirlwind that extinguished the flames on Five's body, and then pounced on the wreckage of Five. She let out two strands of pearl-like tears that dripped down the mottled rusty metal.
Tang Ke had felt that something was wrong with Emily before, and when he saw the scene in front of him, he immediately guessed seven, seven, eight, eight, and asked, "Is the black door engraved on it just now that you can only pass through by sacrificing all your lives?" ”
Emily ignored Donk's question at first, and continued to hum and cry, and only after her mood had stabilized a little before she nodded and said, "Yes, it's engraved with what you guessed, so I didn't tell Five just now." ”
"If you say that this door will kill it, I don't know if it will take the initiative to open this door." Donk guessed.
"I think it will, just tell it that this is part of the mission, it is an order from the Dragon's Tooth Country, and it will go for it, it is such a simple guy, not as complicated as humans." Emily said, wiping tears from her eyes.
"Because of its simplicity, I decided to collect some of its wreckage, and after we leave here, send its wreckage to the Dragon Tooth Country for burial, and then posthumously seal it a martyr or something." Donk decided.
"You're right, we should at least collect its wreckage, or we'll be so sorry for it, and we wouldn't have been able to get here without it." Emily nodded again, and reached out her white jade palm to pick up a broken part.
"Yes, if it weren't for this idiot, we would definitely fight over who opened the door, and at that time, let alone open the door, it would probably be our own people to kill ourselves." Donk whispered a terrible truth.
Emily changed color slightly, and there was no interface, because the topic was terrible, and it made her feel a chill down her spine.
Not only will this area of the Lifegate take the lives of others, but it will also cause a fight between the intruders, which is far more terrifying than the two areas just now. From around this huge hall. There was an invisible pressure of death, which pressed the only two remaining ones.
Donk leaned down and picked up Five's head, which was the most important part of Five's body and had to be put away. He tucked Five's head into the package behind his back, picked up two more arms, and stuffed them together, then stopped, not picking up any more wreckage. When they broke into the dead, they carried a lot of things on their backs. Stuffed with packages, there isn't much room for any wreckage.
Emily also helped pick up a few pieces of wreckage, including an energy furnace at the heart of Five's interior, which was the second most important thing on Five's body besides his head.
"The lifespan deducted from these gates of life is gradually increasing, with the first deducting ten years, the second deducting thirty years, the third deducting half, and the fourth deducting all. Since the fourth door has deducted all of a person's lives, it is impossible to deduct more lives after that. I guess after this door, it's probably the Fountain of Death. Even if it weren't for the Fountain of Death, we should be able to get out of here and head to the next area. Donk speculated.
This speculation is quite reasonable. Emily listened, her emotions rose a little, she nodded, and walked side by side with Donk through the black door.
Behind the Black Gate is still the hallway. And it's still long, long, and hopelessly long.
Halfway down the road, Donk inevitably had ups and downs. All sorts of ideas popped up. Although he had guessed that the Black Gate was followed by the Fountain of Death or the Exit, there was still a corridor behind the door, and from the surface of it, it seemed that this corridor still led to the empty hall and the next black door. If this is the case, how much lifespan will be deducted from the next black door? Without the fifth, who should sacrifice their lives to open the black door at that time?
He felt that Emily beside him must be thinking about the same question at this time, and looked at Emily out of the corner of his eye, and found that Emily had a calm face and was walking forward in a muffled voice. In this kind of situation where two people have their own ghosts, no matter what they say, it is out of place, and if there is really a black door in front of the two of them later, the two will definitely have a conflict at that time, and even fight. Once the fight starts, he will not talk about any gentlemanly manners, he has spent so much effort to gather the resurrection spring, and he will never choose to give up because of the kindness of a woman for a while.
The two of them suddenly became silent, neither of them wanted to speak, and walked silently until they reached the end of the corridor. Relying on the fluorescent light flying in the air, both of them could see the situation on the other side of the corridor clearly, and their faces changed. Because the worst happened, an empty hall and a black iron door appeared in front of you! This also means that there will be someone who will open this black door at the cost of life, and only in this way can we continue to move forward.
Both of them stopped at the same time, unwilling to go any further, because they both understood what would happen if they went on.
The black gate on the opposite side seemed to be waving at the two of them, and the empty hall was a battlefield reserved for the two of them!
Tang Ke experienced too many winds and waves, and he didn't know how many dead souls had been buried, so he quickly adjusted his mentality, and said lightly: "The ugly daughter-in-law also has to see her in-laws, no matter what awaits the two of us in front, we have to continue to move forward, because there is no turning back for both of us." ”
"Yes, there is no turning back for either of us, the fate is terrible." Emily nodded. It's a complete resignation attitude.。
"Are you scared?"
"A little." Emily stared at Tang Ke and narrowed her eyes slightly, "You are simply the nemesis of the three heroes of the sea, the other two three heroes were killed by you, and now you are going to fight with me again, when it comes to strength, I know that I am far inferior to you, and eighty percent of the people who will die in a while will be me." From now on, there will be no Sanjie at sea. ”
"Seriously, if I wasn't forced to this point, I really didn't want to do anything with you, first, you are a woman, and secondly, you are very beautiful, and it is really not a happy thing to fight to the death with a beautiful woman."
"You don't have to blame yourself, because you and I are both forced, and I have the same thoughts as you, after all, ......" Emily's voice was a little heavier, "After all, human life is the most important thing, no one wants to die, and anything done to save life is excusable." ”
"It's a little comforting that you can think about it. If you have any small requirements, you can tell me, and I will try my best to meet you, such as starting with a neat start, or handing over a suicide note for you, helping you fulfill your last wish, or whatever. Donk asked.
"I don't want you to do anything, as long as you can obediently deliver it to my mother after you get the Fountain of Death, and tell her that your daughter is not filial. Left her first, hoping that she would take care of herself. Emily's voice changed to crying.
Donk fought for the Fountain of Death for himself, not for the Greenland Empire, and he had already removed the poisonous effect of the poisonous wine, so he was not poisoned at all, and he was not subject to the alliance between the two countries at all. Therefore, after he gets the Fountain of Death, it is impossible for him to hand it over to the alliance between the two countries, but will take it for himself. Emily made this request. He couldn't do it. He had no choice but to say ambiguously, "Okay." I will relay your words on my behalf. ”
He only agreed to the second request, but not the first, and after he had finished speaking. He leapt forward and reached the center of the hall. He fell back to the ground and looked at the writing on the black door, spotting the inscription that could be engraved here. It was exactly the same as the words carved on the door in front of him, and even if he couldn't read them, he suddenly understood the meaning of the words.
This door turned out to be the same as the previous one. It also takes a person's life to pass!
In this passage composed of the door of life, there are two identical doors, and the effect is directly to take people's lives, which means that all the doors here are nowhere to be found, maybe this door is still not the last door, and there is a black door behind it that can take people's lives. If this is the case, Donk could still be trapped inside, even if he defeats Emily on the spot and gives Emily's life. He was now alone, far from the sea, unable to summon creatures, and by that time there would be no life to contribute. Once the door of life was passed, it would close, and all the previous paths would be blocked, and he would not be able to retreat into the Titan's corpse.
The possibility itself was even more terrifying than making a move with Emily, and it made Donk feel terrified.
Emily followed and jumped into the hall as well, but she had already begun to be wary of Tonk, and deliberately jumped far away from Tonkla. She glanced at the words on the black door, and suddenly her eyes lit up, like a dead tree in spring, and suddenly she was rejuvenated, and said happily: "Donk! Great, this black door is different from the previous one, and it only takes twenty years of life to pass through! Since this door doesn't cost people's lives, there is no need for us to kill each other, and we can use other methods to decide who will open the door, such as drawing lots or guessing punches......"
"Alright, Emily, don't say any more." Donk coldly interrupted Emily's words and punctured the pathetic lie, "I distinctly remember the words engraved on the previous door, and those words are exactly the same as the words on this door, so the meaning must be the same, you don't have to lie to me." At this point, both of us had no choice but to kill each other. ”
Emily's forced smile suddenly disappeared without a trace, and her face became ashes, she sighed lightly, and said regretfully, "I didn't expect you to have such a good memory." ”
"Fortunately, I have a good memory, otherwise I will be deceived by you, if I fight with you, I am very sure, but if I guess with you, it is not certain who loses and who wins." Donk slowly turned to face Emily and stretched out his hands, holding the hilt of the Dementor Knife in one hand and the hilt of the Black Widow's Sword in the other. A demonic phantom emerged from behind him, from small to large, from faint to dark, and then to a height of several meters, as if it were a real entity. In addition, a dark aura emerged around him, sweeping around a range of two hundred meters, forming a dark red semicircular shield.
Emily knew the horror of the dark aura, and for fear of being swept into it, she hurriedly retreated backwards, and propped up the parasol, creating a strong wind from the bottom of the umbrella, blowing her and flying under the corner of the hall.
Since he had decided to break the net, Tang Ke no longer pretended to be benevolent and righteous, and immediately showed his sword skills and attacked forward towards the flying body. He jumped to his feet, drew a sword in mid-air, crossed it over his chest, and then crossed it at Emily on the other side.
Two strands of sword qi erupted, forming two huge red half-moon shapes, like a huge pincer that closed quickly.
Emily gritted her teeth and swung forward with her parasol, releasing an umbrella-shaped wind wall shield. The two closed sword qi slashed heavily on the protective shield, and the protective shield shook three times, first it was much darker, and then there was a crack in the Dao. Seeing that the situation was not good, Emily raised the parasol above the top, and flew up with the wind rising from the bottom of the umbrella, she spun as she flew, and in the process of spinning, she threw a sharp wind blade no less than sword qi at Tang Ke diagonally below.
In the face of the attack of the Wind Blade, Tang Ke did not have the slightest fear, clenched the sword in his hand, lowered his body, accumulated a strong strength, and was ready to use the seventh-order sword technique dragon to flap its wings. (To be continued......)
