8. Thirst for talent

The big black snake that seemed to be able to circle the entire planet disappeared, and I rushed to Abel's side and asked, "Are you okay?" ”

Abel said, "Except that it is almost dawn, there is nothing bad. "He used his eyes to stop me from supporting him, and he always wanted to save face.

"What is that black snake, that 'Apepe'?"

Abel burst out laughing and said, "Snake of the World, you don't know how much trouble this thing caused back then. ”

I asked, "What is the serpent?" It sounds like a majestic name. ”

Abel: "You can ask Tiphon specifically, she has a lot to do with this thing, we were looking for the snake egg, but now it seems to have hatched." ”

I said, "Is it some kind of demon?" ”

He replied, "Probably, it could just be some kind of monster." ”

"Looks like Larsen's shadow magic, or Belial's spell."

Abel said, "It may also be that Larsenlu, Pellet, and Apep each learn their own things." ”

"How did you get it?"

Abel said: "It may have something to do with Wu Ce, or it may have something to do with Mo Ci, or maybe the two of them each got a part and then merged into one, if it weren't for it, it might be really dangerous today." ”

I was indignant: "Your abilities seem to be a lot lower than Gon's, you are necromancy, he is temporal, and he is simply using a rifle to fight a cannon." Even then, you almost won. ”

Abel laughed: "The harder it is, the more fun it is, and I can't wait to fight Helsin again, this time I will win, and I don't have to rely on this snake." ”

I suddenly remembered that we must care for each other and take care of each other, so I said: "This monster occupies your body, it seems to be very dangerous, so let's do it, it is better to extradite it to my body, the so-called I don't go to hell who goes to hell..."

Abel shook his head and said, "This snake is cute, I plan to keep it." ”

Lovely? What kind of aesthetic do you have? Besides, I'm your lovely brother, shouldn't you give me some life-saving insurance? Like Apep or something.

Abel said, "When the morning comes, you will weep first, and I will return later." "He sank into the earth like a strangler.

I regret that my stingy brother would not give me the power of the Serpent, but the web of madness has overwhelmed me, if another monster is kept inside me? If you think about it, forget it.

In life, how can it be perfect and satisfactory everywhere? It's like Yegree has such a perfect appearance, but the dirt and ugliness inside are really hard to describe. The heavy return she promised was just a castle in the clouds after all.

The light of the sun descended on the world, and in the sun, I was a little invincible, which made me feel at ease, not afraid of Yeghri chasing me. Although this trip was regrettable, it made me see Yegli's true colors, and the dukes of the black coffin should no longer have any hope for her.

The most important thing is that Abel has formed a real deterrent, believing that Ye Geli will shrink in the bed and shiver, and I don't have to be afraid of her anymore, at least for a few years she will not dare to find trouble crying again.

The IBA's butler unfortunately didn't survive the fight, and I waited a while for the IBA usher to show up. It was a young man dressed as a mercenary, with long hair, and an appearance of about eighteen years old, most likely a mage, and a very sincere appearance. I saw the brilliance of mana in his eyes.

He was stunned and said, "What the hell is happening here... What the? ”

Everyone asks the same question, and asks the same grammar, is the essence of human beings repeaters? Can't they be a little creative and ask, "Was this place hit by a meteorite?" Or, "How did you survive this nuclear explosion?" ”

I said solemnly: "The peace talks have failed. ”

The young man cautiously asked, "You and... Did Helsin fight a decisive battle? Is this caused by you? ”

I replied gloomily, "They... Why are they pushing me? I was going to hide my strength, but now I was forced to use my forbidden power! Alas, that's it, that's it, I'm afraid this is my fate to bear the power of this curse. I, Longinus, have the power to defy the sky, but I can't help myself. ”

The young man's expression was a mixture of surprise, hope, and hesitation, and he said, "I'll take you back to cry, you may not know the way back." ”

I said, "I can find a way to get home myself, but it's also great that you lead the way for me." ”

The young man said, "Juggernaut, I have something to ask you. ”

My eyes were solemn and soft, and I smiled, "Child, you ask." ”

The young man said: "The IBA has no ill will towards you, they don't know that Yegri intends to turn against you in this meeting, but you... Did you really defeat them, but you yourself were unscathed? ”

My smile was confident and warm, my face seemed to be blooming with sunshine, my face was like a thick cowhide that could not be removed, and I said, "I have made a very restrained move, otherwise, I am afraid that the whole wasteland will never exist for thousands of miles." ”

The young man gritted his teeth, his expression becoming more and more uneasy, and he said, "My name is Osgood, you can call me Os, I am a mercenary of the IBA and a mage. ”

He is also quite handsome, and mages with good looks usually have a lot of potential, maybe a Nefarem, which is the destined gap between the characters with the protagonist's face and the supporting character's face.

I hummed lightly, and said gently: "I call you 'Ao', between you and me, there is no need to be so different." "I have great political skills and charisma, this young man is a good man, and I plan to win him over and pry into the corner of the IBA, after all, there is a shortage of talent in the black coffin.

Oss was a few centimeters away from me, strange, could it be that my eyes were not enthusiastic enough? Could it be that my tongue licking my parched lips failed to express my thirst for talent? Or maybe my sunny face keeps him from approaching too closely? Could it be that I didn't express it enough to make him suspicious?

So, I stretched out my right hand, gently placed it on his right shoulder, and gave him a few small pats, letting out a hearty and healthy laugh.

His body was shaking, he bit his lip again, glanced at me, and quickly turned his gaze.

Young people who have never seen the world, in front of a big man like me, who shocked the past and the present, will naturally be shy, alas, I understand, I understand.

I said, "Oh, what do you have to say to me?" ”

Oss mustered up his courage and said, "Lord Sword...."

I exclaimed, "Listen, how distant? As soon as you and I hit it off at first sight, like close friends, you can call me Langi. ”

Now he trembled even more.

Agitated.

It's exciting.

He was thrilled to meet a great man like me.

He took a deep breath and said, "My lord, I.... I would like to ask you to do me a favor. ”

I said, "You really don't know the rules." ”

He lowered his head and said, "I... I really don't dare..."

I said, "I've said it all, let you call me Langi, I'm older than you, it's okay for you to call me Brother Longi." ”

At this point, I was a little thirsty, so I licked my lips again. Alas, in order to persuade talents, I really tried my best to talk about it, and I even said it dry. I saw that he had a bottle of water in his pocket, took it out, took a sip, chuckled, handed it to him, and said, "Drink it too, O." ”

He hurriedly said, "I... I'm not thirsty, big.... Longi.... Brother. The last few words, he said extremely difficult, today's young people, really have never seen the world.

I frowned slightly, my handsome face was like frost, and I reproached softly: "Do you know that in this world, there is an unspoken rule. ”

Osgood said in a trembling voice: "What... What are the unspoken rules? ”

I smiled and said, "The unspoken rule is that if you want me to help, you have to express your sincerity first, do you understand?" ”

Osgood said, "But, but I'm not the kind of... That kind of person! ”

I said, "This society is a big dye vat, and you look so innocent now, but it won't be long before you get dirty with all this filth." So, you don't think I'm dirty, it's better to be soiled by me than to be soiled by other people, you know? ”

What a profound truth, but in such simple and easy-to-understand words, I am really a logical and eloquent ghost. He should understand my good intentions, and he will learn to be tactful and shrewd, and will no longer directly refuse the demands of those in high positions.

"I don't want to, I don't want to get dirty," he said. ”

I brought the water bottle to his lips with a resolute expression and said, "Drink, do you think my water is dirty?" Give me a drink! ”

This domineering president-like momentum almost scared him to pee, and he shivered and put the water bottle into his mouth and took a big sip.

He undoubtedly felt humiliated, which mixed with my saliva and now entered his mouth, his stomach, circulating in his body. His youthful and slightly arrogant naΓ―ve psychology in the past must have made great progress after this small experience.

He should be grateful to me by now.

I said, "You can say it now." ”

Osgood: "Your Excellency, please help us!" We are trapped in Sodom City, firmly controlled by Yegri, and IBA cannot save us, but can only fight for her! If you're really that good, I beg you to get us out! ”

When I saw that his eyes were full of tears, my heart softened, and I said, "I can save you now, and I will settle you if you cry back with me." I'll give you a cosy cottage with a cosy fireplace and a cosy, big one next to the fireplace.... Bed. ”

Bed, the most desired thing for travelers is bed, in the heart of any long-distance refugee, bed has extraordinary significance, it means safety, it means rest, it means dreams, it means home. I used to be a traveler, and I know that.

This shows my sincerity.

Osgood leaped with all his might, out of my palm. He exclaimed, "Lord Longi, I know what you are thinking!" But I can't! I can't... I beg you to save them, and when it happens, I will... I will...! ”

I laughed and said, "Aren't you afraid that you will fall into my clutches and fall into the mud from now on?" "I regret saying that, I just wanted to show my little humor, but now is not the time to show a sense of humor. Alas, I am a man of great humor, but sometimes it is counterproductive.

He pointed to my side pocket and said no more, for we had reached the border of the Otherworld.

I found a small note in my pocket, the note had magic on it, and Veraille should have a way to decipher the ciphertext on it.

I smiled at him, and Osgood bowed to me, then conjured a motorcycle and fled.

I was also amazed at the fear of young people today, not every young man is as tough as I have been scavenging for a long time, and looking at their pampered appearance, I wonder if his talent is really as high as I expected.
