Chapter 165: The Blasphemous Dog
From the very beginning, Mr. Skeleton called the monster in Chen Xian's body a hound, which really made Chen Xian very curious, because judging from Mr. Skull's performance, he obviously recognized the monster and seemed to know its origin.
"You should know it, right?"
In the private villa assigned to the team by the organizers, Chen Xian felt much more free than outside, at least here he could talk to Mr. Skeleton about some highly secretive topics, such as the origin of the monster...... Chen Xian was really curious, why did Mr. Skeleton know the monster that evolved from the parasite?
That monster should have something to do with his nightmare, and from that point of view, could Mr. Bones also have something to do with that nightmare, or even ...... Something to do with that ancient history that has disappeared?
"I should know it." Mr. Skeleton frowned.
"Should?" Chen Xian was stunned for a moment, and asked curiously, "How do you call it?" ”
Hearing this, Mr. Skeleton looked up at him.
"Don't you know...... After so many years...... I've lost a lot of memories......"
"I know that."
"Occasionally I think of something...... It must have been a long time ago......"
Mr. Skeleton reminisced as he talked to Chen Xian.
"That creature should be of the same era as me, it is not a product of this modern civilization, it lives in the same world after the blood moon as I do."
Although Mr. Skeleton has never concealed his "life experience", Lu Yisheng and the others have never asked much, and only when Mr. Skeleton takes the initiative to chat with Chen Xian, they will take this opportunity to listen...... Yu Sheng was a newcomer who had just integrated into the small group, so his expression became confused when he heard Mr. Skeleton say these words.
The world after the Blood Moon?
The same era?
Could it be that this bone brother lived in a prehistoric civilization?
"You call it a hound...... Who raised the hound? Chen Xian asked curiously.
Mr. Skeleton shook his head and said, "It doesn't serve anyone, including beings like me, and it will become its food if you're not careful." ”
Speaking of this, Mr. Skeleton seemed to remember something terrifying, and a faint palpitation flashed on his face.
"It is a special life born from Mdarus, and it seems that there is no such thing in this world, and it is the only one in the world...... Blasphemous dogs. ”
"Mdarus?"
Everyone looked at each other, and even Chen Xian was at a loss, only feeling that he had heard this name somewhere, but he couldn't remember it.
"It was the second city of the Empire, a church...... Yes, that's the city with the most churches. ”
"The church you're talking about can't be the kind of Western church, right?"
"Of course not."
Mr. Skeleton glanced at Lu Yisheng, and wondered why he thought of Western churches.
"I'm just referring to the place of worship with the closest meaning, a place for believers to gather and worship, in that great empire...... There are many places to worship the gods in this way, and there are too many to count. ”
"This hound was born in this city?"
"Yes, it's just that the birth I'm talking about may not be the same as you think it is, because it's a powerful life that has come out of the shadow of death."
As soon as the words fell, Mr. Skeleton looked left and right at the people present.
"Actually, it was in its original form as a human like you...... It's similar...... I remember him as a fanatical believer...... He was also the first believer to get lost in the teachings of the gods...... He misunderstood the truth of the gods...... And then it went crazy......"
Mr. Skeleton twitched the corners of his mouth suddenly, revealing a strange smile, as if he was sighing, and his tone became meaningful.
"I remember he was still a leader at the time, and there were many believers following him, and no one expected him to fall into madness and become a monster."
"Changed?" Chen Xianyi frowned and asked, "Just like an abnormal life in our time?" ”
"Almost." Mr. Skeleton nodded, and as if something suddenly occurred to him, he added, "Maybe it's more similar to what you said about enchantment. ”
When that fanatical believer misunderstood the truth and fell into madness, his life was "sublimated" to a higher level, at least in Mr. Skeleton's opinion, because after that believer became such a monster, both the level of life and the terrifying combat power displayed were among the best in that era. Dancing God eBook
It loses its memories of being human.
I forgot my name.
But its faith remained religious.
Even if its own brain has been swayed by some crazy thoughts, it still believes in that ancient god, and that unshakable fanatical belief has amazed the entire empire, so no matter how hideous and terrifying it looks, there will still be countless people who like it, love it, and even revere it.
"It is a devout seeker of truth, a guardian of a great race, a mad servant who screams in the darkness, and a fanatical believer in the unspeakable God...... The foolish hound of Mdarus. "Mr. Skeleton translated the distant memories that came to mind in as simple language as possible, "It was one of the Empire's highest combat powerhouses at the time, and it is said that it killed several gods, which is why it is called the Dog of Blasphemy. ”
"Brother Bone, according to what you say...... This monster must be very loyal! Lu Yisheng looked at Chen Xian thoughtfully, and analyzed in a soft voice, "Like this kind of hound, which is devout to the faith and loyal to its owner, it should be difficult to control it, right?" ”
"Of course." Mr. Skeleton nodded and said, "It only fears the gods, and no one but the gods can drive it, not even the king of the empire...... Once upon a time there was a god who wanted to take him as a servant. ”
"And then?" Lu Yisheng asked curiously.
Mr. Skeleton replied succinctly, "Eaten by it." ”
“……”
When Mr. Skull talked about these distant histories, Chen Xian felt very dazed, because he had "witnessed" that history, but it was just ...... He hadn't seen this monster in that history.
Could it be that history is moving too fast, so I didn't see the picture clearly?
"Boss, are you sure you can control that hound?" Lu Yisheng couldn't help but ask, his face was a little worried, "I heard Brother Bone say that these gods are chattering...... It felt like the hound was dangerous...... It is faithful to its faith......"
"It's fine."
Mr. Skeleton glanced at Chen Xian, then looked away and quietly explained to Chen Xian.
"The blasphemous dog should listen to him and be loyal to him......"
"How do you know?" Lu Yisheng was stunned.
"Guess." Mr. Skeleton showed a rare smile, and his stiff expression looked a little more natural, "If even Chen Xian can't lower that hound, no one in this world can lower it." ”
"Brother Bone, are the gods you are talking about really gods?" Yu Sheng suddenly asked curiously, his eyes were also shining, "I feel that they are so powerful...... Is it the kind of fairy in the legend? ”
"It's not."
Mr. Skeleton saw it thoroughly, and although he didn't explain too much, a few simple sentences also allowed everyone to clear their doubts.
"I lived in a time when most gods were just powerful beings, like the omnipotent gods as you understand them...... It shouldn't exist, and even if it did, there would be only one. ”
"One?" Yu Sheng blinked, "Who is it?" ”
Mr. Skeleton shook his head, "I don't know who it is...... It looks like a human, but it doesn't have a specific face...... I've only seen stories of it from some ancient texts...... It doesn't have a name...... But it existed the moment this world was born......"
At this moment, Lu Yisheng seemed to suddenly realize something, and his whole expression became frightened.
"!!"
His exclamation directly frightened Li Daosheng, who was lighting a cigarette next to him, and the cigarette fell to the ground.
"You shout chicken feathers, you shout!" Li Dao was angry and scolded.
"It's not me shouting, it's something I've discovered...... it! Lu Yisheng's brain circuit is indeed different from ordinary people, at this moment he suddenly realized something very important, and his tone of voice became extremely frightened, "Brother Bone, according to the rules of the Kunlun Association, you should not be able to participate in the competition after living for so many years...... You're too old to be old! ”
"You fart."
Mr. Skeleton scolded a swear word in front of everyone for the first time, he glanced at Lu Yisheng angrily, and threw out the explanation that Chen Xian had already prepared for him.
"I came back to life in that knife after I died, and I'm not even a year old now!"
"That's ......"
Lu Yisheng was so blocked that he couldn't speak, hesitated for a while, and then asked tentatively.
"Did the boss get you a full moon wine?"
