Chapter 9: The Demon King
On the muddy sandfield, a lonely figure was running.
The runway made of cinders, running barefoot, is painful, and when you still have hundreds of kilograms of heavy armor on your back, this is not training, but punishment.
The cinder road, which had been sprinkled with water, although the black ash would not be turned up, was full of malicious mud, and the originally smooth bare feet were already full of wounds.
Every few hundred meters run, the slender figure has to fall once, even if it is covered in bruises and mud, the girl will leave and struggle to get up, want to run forward, and then....
Fell again....
The blood flowing from those bare feet formed a blood line on the road, stretching all the way...
For herself, the physical pain is nothing, and the piercing eyes of the people around her are the most painful.
The people passing by were a little unbearable, but no one stopped them.
Because this is the Supreme Court of Brimstone, in the eyes of the citizens, this is the most sacred and just place, and if someone is punished, there will naturally be a corresponding crime.
On the side of the runway, two silver-faced judges in legal robes whispered.
"Is that Captain Diana of the Chengguan Brigade? Why are you running laps here, barefoot in single clothes, and carrying heavy armor, it seems that you are being tortured. ”
"Didn't Lord Sleepless order the runway to be watered in the morning, it seems that it was prepared for this one?"
"What did she do?"
"Didn't the Chengguan Brigade act without authorization a few days ago? Without reporting, a new wave of strike-hard operations was launched, as if it had been hit by the sleepless man. ”
"Unauthorized action? Isn't that a super felony? At the very least, it's banishment... Oh, I see! ”
"Yes, the sentence of total banishment is obviously heavy, but it is not possible to go unpunished at all. Therefore, in the past few days, this lady has come to make up the procedures, but the sleepless adults have not seen her, and she is willing to see her today, but she just said "casually" that she wanted to see the heavy cross-country running training of the Chengguan Brigade, and this lady consciously went to run. ”
“… If it is done according to the procedure, it is thrown to the court for a verdict, and the violent agencies are mobilized without authorization, at least it is an exile, but the sentence is obviously too heavy, but if it is completely unpunished, some people will definitely follow suit, and there will be no confidence in punishing others in the future. ”
"Yes, the most haode way to deal with it is probably like this now, first treat it coldly for a few days, let her know the seriousness of the incident, and then let her 'consciously' be punished to set an example. The law is dead, and people are alive, so that the majesty of the law is maintained, and there is no improper punishment, so that the guilty person escapes punishment, and the balance between this is worth learning and studying. ”
“…… Let's go to work, I feel like the Sleepless One is watching this side at the spire, and if you don't work hard, you'll be in trouble. ”
The two left in a hurry, and now it was time to go to work, and they were wearing legal robes, and they also had their own cases to be busy.
The ears of the dark elves were very sensitive, and the discussion of the two judges did not escape Diana's ears, so, gritting her teeth, she stood up again, staggered and propped up the hundred-pound heavy armor, and continued to be punished.
And at the top of the tower, not far away, in the office of the sleepless man, the unscrupulous Supreme Justice was holding up his binoculars to look at this side, but contrary to the judges' guesses, he was not in the mood of supervision but of admiring the view.
Sure enough, the wet single clothes revealed all the beauty's figure, and the mud lined the sports carcass more fleshy, next time, no matter how those guys objected! I must include beauty quagmire wrestling in the sports events!! ”
Putting down my binoculars, I seriously pondered the possibility of getting this policy through Parliament.
As for the penalties? The dignity of the law? Does that thing matter?
"The old diehards of the council may not allow it, but I approve it!!"
The one who enjoyed the beautiful scenery with me was a middle-aged man with a lewd smile on his face, although he looked quite good, but he was a little tired from his bones.
Red light armor, fiery red two-handed sword, burning red hair like flames, the whole person is burning like a flame, although in the peaceful city, he is as armed as always, and the silver broken sword pinned to his waist may be the only other color on his body.
"The Phoenix of Dongwen", "The Man Who Doesn't Die", and so on, but the most well-known is his identity as a brave Red Lotus Sword Saint.
One hundred and thirty years ago, he led his adventurous group to surprise attack the undead army of the Lord of the Eternal Night, and successfully beheaded the Lord of the Undead of the Lord of the Night, causing the entire army of the undead to collapse, which is simply a classic episode in which the brave man kills the demon king to save Shijie.
After that, he refused the solicitation and thank-you gifts of the countries, and unbelievably came to the dungeon Shijie that no one cared about, and established this strange city.
And when the strange fame of Brimstone Mountain City reached the surface again, the hero's fame rose again.
"Living epics", "the most perfect heroes, the humans of the earth, have called their heroes as such."
But at this moment, in the face of the sexy curves looming under the wet single clothes, the upright face of the Chinese character is also a look of obscenity that all men understand.
"Let's just hold a marathon quagmire long-distance running conference, let the group of dark elves in the city management and the group of female pastors in the church participate, only wear underwear, haha, you can make money just by selling tickets."
Red Lotus Sword Saint Adam. Han, as my immediate boss, the lord of Brimstone Mountain, has the greatest pleasure of making trouble for his subordinates and obstructing the Civil Council, and how could he not like my proposal that will inevitably make the old fellows of the Council furious.
Don't look so old and improper, and in my system, this guy is a 262-level demigod existence, put on the ground shijie, at least the king of a country.
"Oh, old bachelor, you're getting stronger again."
When we met last week, it was only level 260, and for the existence of this level, it is difficult to go further, and it is incredible to increase by two levels in a week.
"Yes, old bachelor, your eyes are still so poisonous. The fire phoenix, the older you get, the stronger it gets, now that I, the heart of the phoenix has burned to the extreme, I should be able to beat you in your heyday alone. ”
"Hehe, even if you are invincible in the world, you are not an old bachelor in the second middle school."
"yes, it's the same old bachelor as you who uses skeletons as a **."
After the two old guys who have been single for hundreds of years habitually hurt each other, they sighed in various ways.
"When is this singles day going to be the end, if you want to find a girlfriend......"
"I'm already numb to Xiao Zuo (left hand) and Xiao You, if it weren't for you to stir up the situation, I would have had a woman a long time ago, maybe I should have a son and grandson."
"Are you showing off? Is it so worth showing off to have a physical body? All I have bones left is left! ”
"Show off? Show off your face. And those rumors of yours that I killed Lone Star, and all the beauties in the city went around me! Last week, I 'accidentally' bumped into that beautiful woman, obviously a beautiful acquaintance, and actually ran to the Templar church to expel the curse, and actually regarded it as an evil ...... Do you know how I was feeling? ”
"Of course you do, that's why I told that desert beauty that you hit Lone Star!"
"I'll just tell you how an outsider could know about these rumors, and sure enough, it's you bastard!!"
Well, then, Adam, the most perfect human hero, and the most majestic Supreme Judge of Brimstone City, the Sleepless, fought like children.
But as always, this senseless battle soon ended.
Although the demigod warrior easily cleaned up my scum, who had less than five combat strength, how could I be afraid of him if I didn't feel pain. All kinds of sarcasm about singles are constantly connected.
"An old bachelor who deserves to be for a lifetime."
"Legend has it that being single at the age of 30 is a great magician, you are almost 200 years old, have you already upgraded to the ultimate great magician, come, put a fireball and I'll take a look."
"Do you want me to use magic to help you turn Xiao Zuo and Xiao Right into girls? Super cute promised, oh oh, oh oh, you wavered, you actually wavered. Don't be stupid, if magic could do this, would I still be single now? ”
Of course, while I hurt him with my words, my heart was dripping blood,
"I'm 376 years old, and I'm still single... I'm going to be resurrected!! ”
By the time we remembered that we had business to deal with today, it was already sunset, and sure enough, as a certain philosopher said, there was emptiness left after hurting each other.
"Hey, you came to me today, you won't come to me to fight, will you?"
"Of course not, Margaret asked me to do business, what is it? Let me think! ”
"Sure enough, Alzheimer's disease."
"Don't make noise! I'm almost there! Oh oh, by the way, there are two things today, no, actually one thing. ”
"Huh?"
"I'm almost hanging, you should know."
Obviously talking about his death, this wood is as if to say where to play tomorrow.
"Of course, the shortest is one year, the longest is three years, and you should hang up."
Of course, I know that the information of the character prompted by the system has a red border next to his name (near the end of life), and he is not far from death.
"For 157 years, I've lived long enough, and I have no regrets."
Is it? No regrets? Also, the lifespan of normal humans on the Ash Continent is 60-80 years, and the strength of this fight is amazing, and it has lasted to nearly two hundred, which is indeed considered a long life.
"If you want to live longer, it's actually not that difficult."
Of course, there is no difficulty, such a powerful warrior, as long as he is willing to believe in the gods, any apostle status, can make his life endless, and if he doesn't want to serve others, it is not difficult for him to reincarnate other long-lived races, such as angels, demons, and undead.
But Adam smiled, laughing lightly, laughing without concern, obviously still young, but as if he had seen through the impermanence of the world.
"No, 150 years is too long as a short-lived human being, and I've lived enough. A country boy who has found nothing has fulfilled his heroic dream. Now that everyone I know is almost dead, and everything I want to do is done, it's time to rest. Besides, the old immortal always stands on it, and it's also ugly, and it's time to give the newcomer a seat. ”
“…… You're still thinking about Lisa. "And his suddenness couldn't fool me.
Lisa. Grant, Adam's former companion and crush, died more than a hundred years ago in the battle against the Lord of the Night.
With this guy's ability, if he really wants to find a girlfriend, how can he not find it, those two weddings, if he really persevers to the end, with his combat strength, how can he watch being made by us.
"Oh, you're really a love saint. It's a bit too selfish, though. ”
"Yes, I'm selfish." He actually nodded in acknowledgement. "I'm sorry Margaret, she's still young as an immortal, she should have more options."
The great sage Margaret is infatuated with Adam, but Adam can't let go of his dead ex-girlfriend, which is already an open secret of the top of Brimstone Mountain City.
The so-called two weddings, more, just expect Margaret to give up herself, of course, Margaret did not hesitate to contact me, asking me to give a "gift" to Adam's wedding, undoubtedly also shows her attitude of not giving up.
Rumors can be spread, and naturally they can be dispelled, and the reason why the secrets that everyone knows have changed are probably just that Adam, as the lord of the city, is happy to see these.
"Stupid triangles. Well, I don't want to intervene in this kind of thing as an outsider, but since you want to die, then, there is another thing I guessed. ”
"Of course, since I, the jailer, am going to die, then you, the prisoner, will also be released from prison. Congratulations, Lord Night, how does it feel to be free? ”
Yes, this sulfur mountain city is actually a prison, and the three giants of the brave Adam, the great sage Margaret, and the ancient red dragon Xiaohong are all jailers.
And I, the former Emperor of the Eternal Night, am the only prisoner in this prison!
"So, Adam the Brave, are you sure you want to let me out and destroy Shijie?"
"Whatever you want, without Lisa's shijie, if you want to destroy, destroy it."
