Chapter 1385: Buck and Babu
Buck and Babu are nervous right now, because the unforeseen has suddenly arisen at a critical moment in their lives, and it is likely to wipe out what they would have had to turn around.
As two unusually qualified witchers, Buck and Babu are powered by forces that are not part of this world in the first place, but for some irresistible reason, the two brothers had to be assigned to this place to serve as boring guards.
Each day, Buck and Babu are tasked with patrolling their territories and then returning to their homes to distribute food to the dung-wormed people.
Once a day, repeat the cycle, and never stop.
Of course, it is always a bit exaggerated to say that according to the time of the human continent, it is only more than a thousand years, and the two of them have been staying in this barren place for more than a thousand years.
And now, it's about to be their time to be released from prison, for more than a thousand years, the two have been cautious, although Babu's temper is not very good, but when he encounters things, he will try to talk less and do more, so he has been at peace with other demon hunters.
In addition, the brothers also successfully caught many stowaways, which can be regarded as accumulating merits, so they will be released from prison earlier and return to the original world.
However, the appearance of Tianxian disrupted everything.
Buck and Babu have always been a little uneasy about Tianxian who suddenly rushed into the maelstrom, but if it stands to reason, Tianxian will never survive, and special protective clothing is needed to enter the whirlpool, otherwise in this world, even Buck and Babu themselves will not be able to come back alive from it.
But the two of them are uneasy, especially at this critical moment, if something goes wrong, not only will the matter of being released from prison be completely ruined, but even continuing to stay here may become a luxury, after all...... There are worse things than here.
"What the hell is going on with that guy? Do you think of anything?" Buck sat in his seat, his face a little gloomy, and he didn't eat a single bite of the food on the table.
Babu was gulping down the food, but he was also frowning, obviously not thinking about the already delicious meal in front of him, "It's very unusual, a demon has the strength to resist when he comes here, and ...... Forget it, they won't be alive anyway, don't you also say that they are dead. ”
Buck looked out the window, under the dark starry sky, the stars were dim, and the huge black vortex emitted a stunning black glow, which made it a little impossible to look at directly.
"I think ...... It's weird, are you going to be if they didn't die?"
Babu put his fists on the table in annoyance, "They're going to die! Break in like this, don't say it's them, we can't die anymore! Eat your stuff! We're about to leave this damn place, I don't want to hear about these bad things!"
Buck pondered, "It's because we're leaving, we can't afford to make mistakes, we don't have a good relationship with the other demon hunters these days, they shouldn't frame us, and the demons only come here to die, but...... It doesn't make sense. ”
Babu was completely impatient, "If you don't feel at ease, go outside and watch, don't bother me here!"
Buck looked at his brother coldly, "It's because you've always been like this that we've gotten to where we are today, and I said we'd go our separate ways after we left, and that's not a joke." ”
Babu was not at all weak-hearted, and said loudly, "Of course, I have had enough of you, and if it weren't for you, we wouldn't have had to endure so much time here." ”
Buck snorted and got up and walked out of the room, Babu didn't care, continued to eat, and pulled the food that Buck hadn't touched directly over to feast, where food is precious, and waste is not good.
"Babu, come and see!" had only taken two bites before Babu heard Barb's startled screams outside.
"What's the ghost called, is there anything nice about this kind of place?" said Babu, swinging his chubby body, squeezed out of the door.
"What's the matter, do you see a beautiful woman or ......" Babu snorted, following Buck's gaze, and stopped in the middle of speaking.
"This ...... What is this thing?"
The black maelstrom is writhing!
Originally, after the collection of humans returned, the maelstrom would return to calm, as if a deep pool of water was quietly there, but now, it was fluctuating and twisting!
A huge wave that can be seen by the naked eye is set off in the whirlpool, spiraling like a hurricane, moving rapidly, wave after wave of waves continue to wash, and the entire whirlpool has completely changed its appearance.
"There seems to be something there!" Buck pointed in one direction.
It was the center of the maelstrom's waves, and in the center of this maelstrom, which seemed to frame the entire starry sky, countless waves slowly rose from here, and then swept away in all directions, as if something in this place was constantly stirring the maelstrom and making it uneasy.
Buck and Babu watched in amazement, and their eyes almost popped out as they watched.
This huge and boundless maelstrom, from the point in the center, suddenly slowly revealed a huge gap and hollow.
On the opposite side, the stars are star-studded, and the stars behind them stand out against the backdrop of the deep maelstrom.
"Notch...... Gap?" Buck couldn't believe his eyes.
The maelstrom seems to be right in front of you, but that's because it's so large that it's actually immeasurably far away from the rock belt, and a gap that can be seen with the naked eye here is a huge cavity that can swallow heaven and earth in place.
Buck and Babu had been here for more than a thousand years, and it was the first time they had seen the maelstrom fluctuating at this time, and it was also the first time they had seen such a hollow.
Cold sweat slowly broke out on Buck's forehead, and although he was calm before, the uneasiness in his heart was always there, and looking at the hollow in the center of the maelstrom, this uneasiness began to grow stronger.
No, no, no...... This must be some kind of natural phenomenon, we have only been here for a thousand years, many things have not been experienced, it is said that this maelstrom is more than 100,000 years old, and no one knows what will happen in it.
Buck comforted himself, but a loud cry from Babu shattered all his dreams.
A golden light shot up from the maelstrom, right from the empty spot.
The speed of the light was incomparably astonishing, and it seemed to appear here in a flash, and then it had already flown high, and the bright tail of light was still in the hollow of the maelstrom.
The light spun a corner under the stars, then sped away from the maelstrom at an angle that made Babu and Buck break out in a cold sweat.
The light is coming towards the area that Babu and Buck are responsible for!
Fuck it! It's that devil boy!
Buck and Babu cursed in their hearts almost at the same time, and together they took a small red gem from their bosoms, crushed it, and threw it into the air.
Two scarlet rays of light shot up into the sky, illuminating almost all the rock platforms here, and the blood-colored light filled the entire starry sky at once.
This is an urgent call for help.
While Buck and Babu don't think a demon can do anything to themselves, a demon that can rush back from the maelstrom without protective gear is a different story.
While such a signal for help is likely to be punished and ridiculed, it is better than being blamed for dereliction of duty, and above all, ......
Both Babu and Buck felt the unprecedented pressure, and the golden light rushed madly, bursting with dazzling brilliance under the starry sky, like a heart of revenge burning with rage.
The call for help signal had only been lifted off for less than three seconds, and the golden light had already rushed to the front of the rock belt at an incredible speed, and a thin light separated from it, gently swept into the air, like a water wave agitation, extremely light, and the two red rays of light were instantly annihilated by the power of the light wave.
Buck and Babu stared into the air, their eyes straight.
The light slowed down, circled in mid-air, and landed heavily and straight in front of Buck and Babu.
"Boom!"
A small rock platform was nearly smashed to pieces.
Buck and Babu tensed and were ready to fight, but when the golden light dissipated, the people who appeared from inside surprised the two of them again.
Tianxian hugged Yaoyao and slowly straightened up, finally breathing a sigh of relief, no matter what, it feels really good to be back here.
The original crimson lines on his body turned golden, but he didn't care too much about this, this kind of demonic posture, it would not be strange what Tianxian became, Yaoyao's demon form was like a transformer, not only could it change its shape, but even its size could ......
Yaoyao was still a little confused, everything just now was a process in the clouds for Yaoyao, and then rushed back all the way, Tianxian Yaoyao's eyes were still full of small golden stars jumping wildly.
Taking a deep breath, Tianxian felt the beauty of being alive.
To tell the truth, when he was in the maelstrom just now, Tian Xian really thought that he was going to die, and even wanted to lose Yaoyao here, the unwilling pain, and the feeling of regret still echoed in his mind, but now he was standing in a safe place, and there were only a few minutes before and after.
Tian Xian has to sigh the impermanence of life.
Buck and Babu stared at Tian Xian, thinking that the other party would attack, but Tian Xian just stood there, holding Yaoyao and looking at the sky, looking at the starry sky here, and then looking at that side, he smirked a few times, and then looked at the surrounding rock belt, that look was excited and ecstatic, not at all like he was looking for trouble.
The two exchanged glances, and they were a little unsure of the situation in front of them, so they simply waited quietly to respond to all changes.
"Yaoyao, we're back!" Tianxian said in Yaoyao's ear, and then laughed.
Yaoyao's feet landed, and then she felt that her brain was clearer, and she shook her head to see Buck and Babu in front of her clearly, and was stunned for a moment, and then immediately grabbed the placket of Tianxian's clothes, and her heart suddenly rose again.
Buck and Babu are undoubtedly far superior to Tianxian and Yaoyao in terms of strength—Yaoyao thinks so.
Tian Xian finally cleaned up his mood, grabbed Yaoyao to prevent her from falling, and waved his hand to the demon hunter in front of him, "I didn't expect you to be guarding here, I'm really sorry to disturb you, I said we couldn't come here because we didn't have a choice, I hope you don't think we're here to find trouble." ”
With smiling eyes, smiling mouths, and smiling noses, Buck and Babu found that the demon in front of them, who shouldn't have any expression, actually had a smiling expression on his face.
"We also came here by accident, and it looks like we're causing you some trouble, but we don't want to get in trouble, if...... If you're going to stand there and don't want to do anything else, then ...... Let's take our leave. ”
Tian Xian was also a little frightened, although he felt that he was a lot stronger, but how it compares to these two guys, it is not something that Tian Xian can know.
And Tianxian didn't dare to try rashly, if he was not defeated, I am afraid that even Yaoyao would not be able to run away here.
Therefore, Tianxian also saw that the other party seemed to be afraid, so if you don't run at this time, when will you wait!?
"Wait!" Buck exclaimed, "I came here all of a sudden, and now I want to leave, demon, do you know what this place is?"
I really don't know......
"This is the territory of the two of us!" Babu also came to help, but in his heart he scolded Buck, if he let the other party slip away like this, it doesn't seem to be a big problem, just now he sent a signal for help, the other party rushed out of the maelstrom alive, what do you still do with others, if you don't make it possible for the other party to kill you with a finger now.
The sweat on Buck's forehead was still oozing, and he now knew that he was at the crossroads of his fate, and it seemed that the only way to decide whether he could take a broad road was to rely on luck.
What is going on with the other party? Why did he run out of the maelstrom alive? After running out, did he really skyrocket in strength, even surpassing himself?
If the other party is still just an ordinary demon, then it is very good to take down the demon as a special feat, and even because of the abnormal state of the maelstrom, these two demons will definitely be interrogated, as their demon hunters, the reward is indispensable.
However, if the other party gains enough strength, then the roar that he left just now has already buried himself, and even his brother at the same time.
The other party has bad intentions, and Tianxian naturally feels it, which is not what Tianxian wants.
If these two guys are on together, it is estimated that I will not be able to support it for ten seconds, which is Tianxian's own judgment now.
"There's one thing, I don't know if you want to hear it!" Tian Xian suddenly said, "I want to ...... about some of the situations in the maelstrom You may not know it yet. ”
