Chapter 45: Eternal Sleep at the Bottom of the Sea

Knock knock.

"Serve!"

There were two knocks on the door, as is customary, and the beautiful waitress pushed the door open and entered, unhindered.

The biting chill disappeared in a flash, she shivered all over, subconsciously glanced at the unturned air conditioner in the corner, and put the two plates of seafood in her hand on the table.

"There are three more sets to come, and they will come soon."

Politely smiling at the two guests, the waiter gently closed the door and went out, and couldn't help muttering a few words before leaving: "It's really strange, why did you feel so cold just now?" ”

Inside the door, Brother Salted Fish, who was interrupted, also calmed down. However, he was not ready to agree to Cheng Hai's request, and said bluntly: "I'm sorry, I don't plan to tell you." ”

"Don't be in a hurry to say no."

Cheng Hai cleared the chopsticks in his hand, put a piece of squid into the bowl, and said, "This may be your last chance to show your loyalty." ”

"Loyalty? What is loyalty? ”

Brother Salted Fish slapped the table and said with a grim face: "Do you still want to tell me that the purpose of your asking this is not to kill him?" ”

The Trial, while not sharing information easily, knows what to say and what not to say. In order to make Brother Salted Fish more determined to die, Cheng Hai and Hasta naturally informed him of the cooperation.

And Hasta and Cthulhu are mortal enemies, and when Cthulhu is released, will Cheng Hai still help the enemy deal with his allies?

"Don't get excited."

Cheng Hai licked his lips, but after all, he still didn't pick up the food, and sighed: "Before answering your question, I want to tell you another thing." ”

Facing Brother Salted Fish's gaze, Cheng Hai leaned back on the chair behind him and continued: "When the blood moon summoned the incarnation of the moon god, I made a bet with Naia. I'm going to find him in five hundred years, and I'm likely to die there, so in order to become stronger, I have to choose a god to be my stepping stone. ”

"Hasta and your master are the only old rulers I have access to, and I've co-opted one of them to deal with the other."

"But you know what? When I killed the Wizard three months ago, I was a normal guy who could cough up blood for 500 meters, and now I'm on the verge of reaching your level. After that, although the cultivation speed may not be able to continue to increase like a rocket like this, it will never be slow. ”

"If you tell me how to open the seal, I'll do it to him when I see fit. And if you refuse, someone else will continue to work on it, which may be a long time.

And as time goes on, the world will change a lot. If I hadn't died, I'd certainly be stronger, and probably wouldn't even need your master's help; Or maybe our planet has been destroyed and an even more powerful old god has taken over and discovered this unsightly seal. ”

"I'm not dead, but I'll get rid of this hidden danger before I go to meet Naia. Which of these situations do you say will have a better chance of your master surviving? Don't you want your master to be liberated sooner? ”

At this point, Cheng Hai was also a little thirsty, drank half a cup of tea, and then began to taste the local food.

Brother Salted Fish's face was gloomy, and he was also analyzing what he had just said.

Cthulhu has been sealed for tens of thousands of years, and he doesn't know how much strength he still has left. However, for many years, the guardians of the Gate of Lalaye have only cared about observing whether the seal is loose, but they have not studied how to unlock it, and it seems that they have no bottom in their hearts.

If Cthulhu's awakened strength is enough to crush the strongest in this world, then as long as he releases it, he will be free. But if it is just similar in strength and does not pull away too much, then according to Cheng Hai, the further it drags on, the more dangerous it is.

It's just that......

Knock knock.

"Serve."

There was another knock on the door, and the waiter pushed the door open and laid out the remaining dishes.

"The dishes are ready."

"Okay."

The waiter didn't notice the change in the atmosphere of the two of them at all, and twisted his waist and walked out of the door, the healthy and firm wheat color is also a unique and beautiful scenery on this tropical coast.

"Wizard."

"Huh?"

Cheng Hai turned his head.

"Can you tell me how the remaining apostles died?"

Brother Salted Fish broke off his chopsticks and picked up a sea cucumber. His expression was neither sad nor joyful, and he didn't know what he was thinking.

"All?"

"All."

"Okay......"

Cheng Hai wiped his mouth, and was willing to satisfy this poor loser.

"The first male wizards died without passing the soul judgment and being burned by the fire of hell; The ghost shadow was directly refined by me with the power of sacrifice; The blood moon sacrificed itself to the moon god; Areth and the night were killed by a dustless sneak attack; Dustless was killed by me after his strength was exhausted. ”

"Areth and the night were killed by Dustless?" Brother Salted Fish said unexpectedly.

"One is an inner ghost, and the other wants to be a deserter, and the judgment will put all the treasure on you and Wuchen." Cheng Hai said slowly.

"Hahaha, it's good that the inner ghost is dead." Brother Salted Fish suddenly laughed.

Get rid of the inner ghost, at least it won't seem like he and the trial are too stupid.

After all, Yales was in the same group as Cheng Hai, he pursed his lips and did not say anything.

"And what about the judgment?"

Not only Sman, but also Salted Fish Brother wondered about this problem.

In his opinion, if it weren't for the scarcity of resources on this planet and the protection of the gods, the judgment would have become a god a long time ago, and it should not have been so easy to kill.

"One of us was able to eat his memories, and the foreknowledge was neutralized."

"Prediction Neutralization...... I see......"

Knowing the answer, Brother Salted Fish picked up the plum wine on the table and poured it to himself in annoyance.

Cheng Hai raised his glass, the former glanced at it, and finally touched it, and the two drank it all.

"Actually, I don't like alcohol, but when someone wants to, they might take a few sips together." Cheng Hai frowned and sandwiched two pieces of cold jellyfish skin to dilute the sourness in the wine.

"I don't like it very much, it's just not suitable for anything else today."

Brother Salted Fish poured himself another glass, and the two touched each other for the second time.

"Ahh

Putting the cup back on the table, Brother Salted Fish ate two bites of seafood, turned his head to look at the sea outside, and sighed, "To be honest, compared to the Chaos Sea where I used to live, I still like it here." ”

"But you can't break your faith?" Cheng Hai added.

"Hahaha......"

Brother Salted Fish smiled and did not continue the topic. He lowered his head with a complicated complexion, and frantically stuffed the food into his mouth, as if to imprint the taste of the dish into his soul.

Cheng Hai put down the chopsticks in his hand and watched him feast without saying a word.

"I've been convinced by you, wizard."

Brother Salted Fish wiped his mouth clean and stretched out his hand to Cheng Hai.

The two palms touched, and an obscure stream of information poured into the latter's mind.

Before Cheng Hai could fully digest the information, Brother Salted Fish stood up, his face hideous, and he became a crazy believer.

"The abyss is immortal! You'll regret your choice today, and the deep sea will rule the world! ”

But before Cheng Hai opened his eyes, his tone softened again, and said as usual: "But as a friend, I wish you success." ”

"Thank you."

Cheng Hai's face was calm, without the slightest fluctuation.

"That'...... It's time for me to go, too. ”

Brother Salted Fish got up and walked to the window, facing the blue sea outside the window, his eyes seemed to be tired and nostalgic.

After a while, he raised his head, reverted to his half-human, half-fish appearance, and raised his head and said, "Great master, I am ashamed that I failed to fulfill your request, and the Legion of Deep Divers was completely wiped out. ”

"I ask for your mercy and ask for your forgiveness."

"I pray that you will free me from this lonely world."

"O my great master, let my soul rest forever in the depths of the sea, and atone for the sins I have committed!"

The angry and fervent prayers brought a heavy dark cloud. The waves in the distance were constantly surging, and thunder was constantly falling in the sky.

And as the prayer came to an end, Salted Fish's body ignited with a deep blue flame.

The temperature of the flames was very low, and a layer of ice froze in the small box. Brother Salted Fish frowned, did not shout, and his scarred body gradually couldn't resist, collapsed, and turned into a mess of fishy mud.

"Let's go......"

Glancing at the place where Brother Salted Fish fell, Cheng Hai reached out and took an unopened pack of cigarettes from the table.

Tearing open the package and holding one in his mouth, and skillfully lit it, Cheng Hai took out a photo from his arms, which was a few smiling apostles who wanted to be professionals.

Except, of course, for a little love.

After all, this "child" left in the picture in the form of a black-and-white posthumous photo is the only one of the apostles who is still alive.

"Poof! cough cough cough ......"

Cheng Hai couldn't help laughing, and then choked on the smoke.

He hadn't smoked for too long, and he had grown to hate the smell.

"It's a pity that Xiao Ai wasn't there at the time, otherwise I really want to see her angry expression, the scourge will last for a thousand years......"

With a chuckle and a sigh, Cheng Hai clipped the photo to his fingertips, lit it with mana, and then sprinkled the ashes on the corpse left by Brother Salted Fish.

Although they are enemies of each other, they can be regarded as friends if they do not have opposing positions.

Since the great Cthulhu can't let him sleep forever at the bottom of the sea, let him fulfill that wish.
