Phyllis returned to the castle, he turned into a cloud of black smoke and crept into Tress's room through the window, the black smoke swirled on the roof, and saw Herbert fainting in front of his wife's hospital bed, holding a rib with black flames in his hand, which was left by 'death', Herbert took off the rib of 'death', he wanted to get it, the black smoke gathered in the middle of the house, he quietly approached Herbert and reached out to take the rib.

Before his hand could touch the ribs, he noticed a vision of the room, and he felt time suddenly stand still.

There are other people here, and I'm too careless. It dawned on him that it was too late.

Someone grabbed his shoulders and wrists, the coldness that ran through his body, and he could see that the hand that grabbed his wrist was a miserable white hand, and there was a miserable emerald bracelet on his wrist, and the hand that grabbed his shoulder behind him was black, and Phyllis knew that he couldn't succeed today.

He took a few steps back, the 'plague' with the bow and arrow and quiver on his back and the 'hunger' with the golden balance in his hand stood in front of Tress's hospital bed, they looked at Phyllis, "This is not something you should touch, Mephistopheles Phyllis, listen to my advice to go back to your hell, you have made the world a mess, don't go any further, we don't want to fight with you, you have done what you have done, there is nothing to be nostalgic about here, let's go." "It's 'hunger' that speaks.

Mephistopheles suppressed his anger, he didn't like people to interfere with his actions, he was even more disgusted with arguing with other 'knights' in the middle of the day, he still said patiently: "Of course, I just came to admire my masterpiece before going back to hell, and I happened to see that ......" He pointed to the rib in Herbert's hand, "I'm just very curious, whose rib is it, according to rumors, my masterpiece can hurt you, I'll just verify it, you guys are just too nervous sometimes, okay." I'll go. ”

'Plague' and 'Hunger' looked back at Herbert and Tress behind them, and said to Phyllis, "Okay, you see it too, get out of here." ”

With a wave of his hand, Hunger opened a circular hole filled with a wolf-howling hell, and Plague made a gesture of please, "Come, Mephistophelis and return to your hell." Mephistopheles knew it would be useless to stay here, and he snorted resentfully, and walked through the round hole back into hell, and then the whole space was calm again.

'Hunger' and 'Plague' walked to Tress's bedside, and 'Hunger' ran his finger across Tress's fair face, "It's a pity that a woman who is supposed to enjoy happiness in heaven should suffer like this, and that her husband's foolish desires are being used by demons to tamper with the rules of the unnoble." ”

'Plague' grabbed Tress's hand with both hands and said: "Yes, people can't see the ultimate happiness if they can't give up the prosperity in front of them, it's really amazing, it's really a beautiful embryo, and there will be more suffering in the coming days, I hope that the 'day' of liberation will come as soon as possible, and we also look forward to the arrival of this day." ”

With that, the two knights disappeared into thin air, the room returned to calm, the horizon gradually turned from black to gray, the sun appeared from the horizon, Herbert's body shook, he slowly opened his eyes, in the haze he could not tell whether he was dreaming or being in reality, but the skin illuminated by the sun told him the truth.

Mephistopheles returned to the center of the Hall of Ten Thousand Demons, his appearance startled the demons present, everyone was whispering, Lucifer sat on the throne of the main hall and asked in a loud voice: "My friend, it was so unexpected to see you, you disappeared for decades, we all thought you died in the desolate land, and it was comforting to see you so energetic." ”

He snorted, "Of course I succeeded. Mephistophelis turned to face all the demons and continued: "And I have also created an even more amazing species, with the help of the power of the 'Savage Ancestor', I have transformed the human body, and now they are all subjugated to their own desires......" He spread his arms and showed off his abilities, which made the demons present in an uproar, and everyone let out a cry of amazement.

"Come on, let's hear about your experience."

Mephistophelis recounted how he went to the Floodlands, met the 'Chaos Lords' and the 'Night Queen', how he got their help, and how he went to Earth to complete his research and how he succeeded.

After the story was told, everyone was admiring the dangers and hardships of the journey.

"It's a wonderful experience, but I can see that your story today is not as passionate as before, and you still have some confusion in your heart, and I want to know why." Rover Cole asked, looking at Mephistopheles Phyllis.

"Oh? In this magical trip, I did have confusion, and I have been looking for a long time without getting an answer, and this time I will come back and ask for clarification. He glanced at the demons in the entire Temple of Ten Thousand Demons.

"Oh? Tell me about it......"

"Before I came back this time, I divided the rest of my research research with two humans, and one of them actually wounded 'Death', I suspect that it is because it contains the power of the 'Savage Ancestor'......" Mephistophelis was confirmed by Lucifer and the other demons, who all agreed with this statement.

"And 'death' came to me and said that I had broken the course of 'fate' and 'time', and it also said that 'time' and 'fate' had been repaired, and I wanted to know how I could find 'time' and 'fate' and where are they?"

Everyone was whispering, and Lucifer was the first to break the disorganized discussion, "Mephistopheles, let me answer you, there is a close connection between 'time' and 'fate', that is, the process of 'fate' and 'time' was orchestrated at the moment when God came out of the void, even before the system we were born, they are the passage between nothingness and eternity, there is neither heaven nor ......"

"I don't understand, somebody has to go...... Go to manage"

"Of course, because of the existence of 'time' and 'fate', the 'Hall of Apocalypse' is guarded by the 'knights' themselves, just behind the 'Hall of the Apocalypse', connected to the lobby, floating in the brilliant and colorful universe, which belongs to the alien dimension, and no one has ever been to it except the knights."

"Why?"

"There are strict guards there, they only allow the 'knights' to pass, they can sense the existence of the 'knights', and those guards are very powerful, the huge dragon snake, its teeth are higher than a person, it has no weaknesses, its ability is strong, it can destroy any creature, including you and me, it will make our 'spirit son' evaporate, and not one is two, it is very dangerous."

"So any 'knight' can peek into 'fate' and 'time', are these things constant?"

"That's because the existence of 'knights' is neutral, they don't favor either side, it's because 'time' is constant, and 'fate' is not, so 'fate' has its consciousness and will revise the direction of future development, any change 'knight' will know, I advise you not to fight the idea of 'fate' and 'time'."

"Of course, I'm just curious...... well, I'm going to get some rest." Mephistopheles disappeared into the main hall.

Lucifer touched his chin, he knew that Mephistopheles must have hidden more critical secrets on this trip, he would never be interested in 'fate' and 'time' for no reason, and there was more valuable information that the 'knights' were not invincible in the world, which was really good news, there was finally a way to restrain them, although he thought so, Lucifer didn't want to turn his face with the 'knights', so it wouldn't be good for anyone.

Mephistopheles Phyllis stood at the top of the Hall of Ten Thousand Demons, looking at the storm under the red clouds in the distance, Lucifer walked over, "Mephistopheles Phyllis, you have hidden some things from this trip......"

Mephistopheles Phyllis turned his head and looked at Lucifer who walked into him with the rest of his eyes, "Of course, everyone should leave a little secret for themselves to savor, this is called privacy." ”

"I think your secret is dangerous......" Lucifer stood side by side with him on the edge of the top floor, "I know what I know about you......"

"Oh?"

"You're playing the idea of a 'knight'......"

Mephistopheles laughed, "Of course, no, I'm not stupid enough to get along with the knights, it's just that I found out that my masterpiece actually injured the 'death'......"

"You said so."

"And he also took off the ribs of 'death.'"

"Huh?" This surprised Lucifer, injuring 'death' is already big news, and taking off 'death' ribs is considered a blast.

"So, I want to get that thing to study, and I have a bold guess that with that thing I can go to the 'Hall of the Apocalypse' and see what 'time' and 'fate' are like, and how they work......" Mephistopheles said to himself proudly.

Lucifer didn't approve, "No, I'd advise you not to do that, it's very dangerous. ”

"Of course, I don't need you to understand what I do, I'm a scientist, every experiment and research is accompanied by danger, and I'm willing to dedicate myself to my scientific experiments and research, you also expressed your different opinions on me going to the 'Wild Realm' back then, and I'm not standing here properly now."

"I suggest you, it's better to give up this idea, it's too dangerous, we don't know anything about the 'Hall of the Apocalypse', no one knows what can happen, give up, my friend, this is my advice to you." With that, Lucifer turned and left, leaving Mephistopheles there alone.

Of course, Mephistopheles Phyllis will not just give up his idea, but to directly face Herbert personally snatch himself is not so much information, he has to think of a more roundabout way, he first thought of Maran Snod, he wants to use Maran Snod's weakness as a threat, let them clash head-on, so that he can have a chance to steal the 'rib of death', he has to re-plan. After several years, Herbert has never been able to stop the harassment of Tres by 'hunger' and 'plague', and now Tress is already terminally ill and skinny, lying in bed worse than death, Herbert wants to secretly drip blood into her water, but he still resists, the trust and respect between the two make Herbert always maintain a rational attitude towards Tresse, and whenever night falls, he accompanies Tress to sleep.

When Mephistophelis re-entered Herbert's castle, he asked Herbert for the 'rib of death'.

One night, while Herbert and the other nobles were discussing matters, Mephistophelis pushed open the door and entered the main hall, much to the surprise of the other nobles. Minosta got up and pointed at Mephistopheles and scolded, "Who is so rude to break into the council chamber without permission?" ”

Spearmen and infantry with spears rushed into the council chamber and surrounded the entire hall, Mephistophelis sneered as he looked at everyone as he took off his gloves, "It's amazing, you're moving faster than I thought, Lord Duke." He raised the weapon in the soldier's hand with both hands, and the fist floated in the air without leaving his hand, and the soldier looked at the sharp blade above his head, and they were a little timid. Mephistopheles' hands sank, and all the sharp weapons turned their guns and flew towards Herbert.

Herbert sat calmly in the center of the round table, without any wavering, and the spears stopped two fingers away from Herbert, and all flew towards Mephistophelis, and with a wave of the spear that flew back in front of him, flew elsewhere, and the hall was full of spears.

"Huh?" Mephistopheles Phyllis made a questioning voice, the action just now was not the ability released by Herbert himself, there were other people here who could magic, he looked at the lady not far from Herbert, could it be her?

"All right, Mary. Xin Sidi. Lensbal ...... "Herbert stood up, the lady owed to Herbert, she glanced at everyone, did not say anything but waved her hand to the guards, the guards rushed out and closed the door, Herbert stood up from his throne, walked past the nobles, and looked at Mephistophelis below, his eyes were still the same as that night many years ago, cold and hateful.

"Everyone, let me introduce you to you, this is Mephistophelis, a demon from hell."

Everyone cast malicious glances at Mephistophelis, they wanted to crush every bone of him, they wanted to drink his blood, Herbert deliberately humiliated him in front of everyone, the Herbert in front of him was no longer the ordinary human, now he was sitting on the entire blood empire, turning a blind eye to the demon from hell, and he hated the demon in front of him who made him lose everything.
