Chapter Twenty-Six: The Praying Mantis Catches the Cicada......

You must know that in the past years, this man named Araya Zonglian has wanted to open the way to the root countless times, and has tried all kinds of methods and means for this.

However, the path he chose failed without exception.

Because whenever he gets close to the answer, he will always encounter countless obstacles as a matter of course, and countless "coincidences" that are not coincidences appear, causing him frustration and difficulties, and always destroying his plans just right.

This is why he regards inhibition as his great enemy in life, but ironically his surname "Alaya" is the same as the primate "Alayya" in the language of this country.

It's just a joke of fate.

It's just that he firmly believes that this time will be the one he is closest to his goal, and the one that is most likely to succeed or even definitely succeed-

On the way to the central hall, the man in a black coat stood at the entrance to the corridor of the West Building, like a silent catastrophe, a demonic shadow.

The residents of the apartment kept attacking at an unusual speed, but despite this, the two rituals were resolved without even raising an eyebrow.

It's just that in the process, she not only consumed a lot of energy, but also unconsciously forced to move in the corresponding direction.

When she found that the hallway was full of corpses, and the dolls were no longer desperately popping up, she also noticed the shadow of the stone tablet that was almost mistaken for black.

β€œβ€¦β€¦οΌοΌβ€

- I didn't realize the man until I got so close, and it was only five meters away.

It wasn't until this distance that she felt the enemy, even if she was mentally prepared before entering the apartment, but even she herself couldn't believe it the moment she realized this fact.

The man, waiting under the dark corridor ahead, seemed to guard the narrow and only path leading to the central hall, like a shadow deeper than the night.

He looked at the kimono girl who had cut down the residents of the apartment without feeling, his eyes were calm, and he didn't even move his eyebrows.

Perhaps it was because of this gaze that the two rituals were able to detect his presence before they collided with him by killing the last occupant blocking the way.

"Wild Wild Sect Lotus?"

Taking a deep breath, he took a step back, leaning himself against the wall as much as he could, and asked with a solemn and wary gesture.

Aozaki Orange had already told her that in this building, Araya Soren had an advantage over anyone else. This building is the incantation, the altar that is meant to make his consciousness stronger.

A high degree of magic must be added to the power of sacrificing life and the land itself. This man is equivalent to using a higher degree of mystery by building a temple.

The records executed by the physical body called Araya Soren have now been handed over to this building to inherit.

- So here is his incarnation, and it is also the consciousness of the Araya Zonglian.

If she hadn't leaned against the wall and focused her consciousness in front of her, she would probably have been discovered by the other party. Even if the other party wants to achieve the goal, it will definitely not hurt her body...... But this is the "domain" of the other side after all.

"Exactly."

The magician stepped forward, the sullen expression on his face not changing in the slightest, he was not surprised that the two rituals knew about it.

"β€”remember me, you. It's been two years since we met like this. ”

The kimono girl frowned, and the other party seemed to know herself? But unfortunately, she can't recall distant memories now, especially the fragments of what happened on a rainy night two years ago.

β€œβ€¦β€¦ Didn't you remember it yourself? Looks like Aozaki should have told you. Araya Soren slowly reached out and touched her sideburns. The side of his head has a straight scar from his forehead to the left.

β€œβ€¦β€¦ It's ironic that what I was supposed to do after I was done had to be done earlier. ”

β€œβ€¦β€¦β€

β€œβ€¦β€¦β€

"I don't understand what you're talking about, what's the point of this apartment?" For the magician's seemingly flawed actions, the two rituals did not take it lightly.

Not only because of the fact that I saw the figure of a man but didn't feel his breath at all, but also because of the "death" of a person who could be seen without mind before, but this man did not.

In her eyes, there was a thread in the human body that could kill it if she crossed it. Whether it was a flaw in life, or the weakest part between the molecular junctions, she didn't know, she could just see it.

Anyone up to now, without exception, has a line that symbolizes "death".

However, on the body of the Araya Zonglian, the line is as if it does not exist, or it should be said that it is extremely weak. Only with maximum concentration can you faintly see the lines on your chest moving like graffiti.

"This apartment? It doesn't make sense in general. It's entirely my own will. ”

His face was still dull, as if he was thinking about a puzzle that would never be solved, and he looked around.

"I have created a world that ends in one day, but it is only two instruments of life and death that are next to each other. If there are no people living and dying in the same way, it is not enough to sacrifice your existence. ”

It was just a simple experiment, because he wanted to try it and see if humanity could have a different death than the end.

It was not that he arranged for the death of the occupants, but that the inhabitants themselves were destined to die, and that those who died in fire in any form were nothing but fires, and those who were killed by their families were only killed by their families in any form.

He just brought the ending forward and kept them repeating the last day.

He believes that as long as fate is repeated, there may be unexpected changes in countless reincarnations. If the same knot is repeated thousands of times, the spiral will also be incorrect, right?

"Still, the results are the same now. The constant repetition only made me see the fact that the fate of man cannot be changed. As if bored, the magician said emotionlessly.

"What a bad guy...... And why sacrifice me? The two ceremonies showed expressions of disgust from the bottom of their hearts.

β€œβ€¦β€¦β€

β€œβ€¦β€¦β€

"I failed once two years ago, and that guy was too much of the opposite."

Araya Zonglian was silent for a moment, and then his voice rose as if he had suppressed laughter. But his expression did not move at all, as always, full of the face of a depressed philosopher.

"Nothingness is your chaotic impulse, the originβ€”look at the darkness and remember your name."

As she spoke, she stretched out a hand under her cloak, as if she wanted to grasp the heads of the two rituals at a certain distance, and slowly chanted a spell containing demonic rhythm.

"You guyβ€”"

For no reason, he felt a burst of anger and strong killing intent, and under the feeling that his heart seemed to be gripped, he shook his head desperately.

"-...... culprit!"

The next moment, the white kimono flowed in the darkness, and the girl's body was as swift as an arrow from a bow that had been twisted to the limit, with the speed and killing intent of a beast.

There is only a distance of less than five meters between each other, just for a moment! She was enough to plunge the short knife into the creature's chest and vent the violent killing intent in her heart.

And yetβ€”

"Don't be afraid!" The magician's voice sounded faintly, and the tense air was a testament to the consequences of being his enemy in this building.

Two rituals of the body, abruptly stopped.

"King Kong! Femme! The next two enchantments were also cast by Araya Soren, and lines emerged from the floor beneath his feet, and three circular patterns stretched out, resembling a figure depicting the trajectory of a planet.

Three slender rings overlapped each other and appeared between the ground and the air, and all the flow of the atmosphere was gradually cut off around the magician, and the phenomena of atmospheric flow were sealed.

The two ritual bodies were stripped of their power, like fragile white butterflies entangled in cobwebs.

"I don't know why you came to this place on your own despite the interference of my will, but I won't give up this last chance ......"

The man's muffled voice was like pinching the brain of the person who heard it.

"After all, it's just the physical strength of ordinary people, and the battle just now has already consumed most of your strength...... Then this body, I will accept it. ”

"Don't ...... Come here......! ”

The girl didn't even have time to react to the magician's approach without warning. I saw the man walking towards me, but I couldn't notice that he was standing beside me.

Araya Zonglian stretched out her left hand, as if it was an open palm with a thousand powers, and stretched it out as if she was about to crush the girl's head.

With a flash of the sword, the beautiful magic eye shone brightly, and with a dull sound, the short knife severed the magician's left hand.

"Dai Tian." The man's faint voice sounded, and the blade passed through it as crisply as a turnip, but his hand was not even injured at all.

Immediately after, he grabbed the girl's face with one hand and hung the other party in the air with all his might...... This kind of strong physical fitness is simply a monster for the average magician.

"Hmmβ€”β€”!!"

The kimono girl's throat trembled, and her consciousness faded in the sound of wheezing. From the palm of the man's hand, there is only overwhelming despair.

For the first time in her life, she was sure that she would be killed.

"There are relics buried in this left hand, and even with the Eye of Death, you can't see the parts that are easy to die." Araya Zonglian said emotionlessly, "What's more, my origin is static, how do you kill someone who has already been still." ”

The two ceremonies were unable to answer, she just struggled desperately, trying her best to find the flaws in the other party.

It's just that the plan was ruined, and Araya Zonglian, who could only jump to the last step in a hurry, didn't plan to give her a chance: "-yes, you can not have a head." ”

With an emotionless voice, he coldly used his real strength.

The sound of bones shattering rang out.

"Hmmβ€”β€”!!"

The magician snorted and stepped back slightly, looking at the other person who appeared in the field in disbelief.

"It's so risky, why do you want to do it to this extent......" As if with a helpless and headache sigh, the figure who also dissolved into the darkness of the night said distressedly.

"You β€”β€”!!"

Huangye Zonglian frowned, it seemed that she was a little anxious, or the original recipe, or the familiar taste, and it was a "coincidence" at such a critical moment?

However, he only had time to utter a short syllable, and the whole person suddenly fell silent, and stood there with his head hanging down, not moving.

Without warning, or even being sure if he had been attacked, he was killed with a clean face.

Mu Xiu tilted his head and raised his eyebrows slightly: "It's actually a puppet, these magicians are really troublesome...... It's no wonder that they are still alive under the obliteration of the previous restraining force. ”

I'm afraid it's just to make the preparation of your own body, and exchange it every time it's destroyed.

"Stop! Don't run! ”

"Huh?" The voice from behind him made Mu Xiu subconsciously turn around.

The two rituals of falling down in a suspended position and jumping back a few steps, and falling to one knee on the ground, perhaps because of the pain that almost crushed his face, or perhaps because of the dizziness of the brain caused by the overuse of the MONOCULUS.

But she struggled against the urge to catch her breath, and immediately raised her head, her eyes lit up with a certain hostility. The next moment, as if only the shadow of a white kimono remained in the darkness of the corridor, she moved as swiftly as an undead.

"You're finally willing to show up?!"

One hand pressed Mu Xiu's shoulder hard, pressed his knee against the other party's chest, and gritted his teeth condescendingly when the other party was knocked down. She raised the figure of nine in her other hand, as if to threaten to keep the other party from moving.

"It should be in time, let's ...... sooner"

At this time, the voice of Aozaki orange sounded somewhat hurriedly accompanied by the sound of chaotic footsteps.
