Chapter 169: A Handful of People Who Decide the Fate of the World
"Hmph."
Jin Shanshan snorted softly, expressing disdain for Gao Qing's behavior of "asking for money for death".
As for Su Mo's sudden disappearance in front of his eyes, both of them said that they were very calm, and one was a heroic spirit. The other one, Su Mo's sudden appearance has already been twice, and he suddenly disappeared or something, which is not a problem at all.
"Eric!"
Su Mo, who was caught in the passage with its own vertigo attribute, heard a shout full of joy.
"Are you calling me?" Although he felt a little strange, Su Mo unexpectedly felt that this seemed to be calling himself.
“……”
“……”
After a few seconds, everything in front of me became clear, and there was silence all around, except for the sound of nervous breathing.
"You, you're not Eric." A little girl's voice came from the side, Su Mo turned his head to see that a little girl who looked like she was eleven or twelve years old looked at her, and the smile on her face slowly converged.
"My demon, is there something wrong?"
On the other hand, there is another voice that sounds kind, even funny, but hides malicious and cruel voices.
Su Mo turned around again, and in front of him was a fat man who was more than two meters tall, with a body shape and limbs similar to that of a human, but his appearance was not the same as that of a human.
Gray-brown skin, a long narrow face, a huge inverted trapezoidal mouth, large, neat teeth exposed, a pair of elf-like narrow ears, a small round white glasses on the nose, and a top hat on the top of the head.
The upper body was wearing a white dress, the purple round collar was slightly erected, the clothes were fully supported by the huge body, and the lower body was black fat pants, which suddenly tightened at the ankles. It's a strange thing to wear when it comes to shoes.
The whole image looks a little funny, like a giant doll, but if you look closely, it will make people feel scared.
It's obvious. This thing isn't supposed to be human...... If human beings look like this, then if they go to act in any magic movies, they don't even need makeup.
While Su Mo was looking at the strange-looking guy in front of him, the people in front of him were also looking at him.
The little girl next to her, who was ignored, walked over, raised her head and took the man's hand and said, "Why, has my Eric become like this?" ”
"Something probably went wrong." The strange man laughed and said, "Why don't we do it again?" ”
"I can bring Eric back to life, as many times as I want." The little girl nodded.
"Hey, little brother over here. Can you remove your feet a bit? I need something. The strange man looked at Su Mo and said, stretched out a foot, and tapped twice at Su Mo's foot.
"Huh?" Su Mo looked down and saw that under his feet, he was stepping on a black human skeleton skeleton, which looked as if it was made of steel.
"Is this the thing?" Su Mo asked.
"Bingo, can you let me do it?" The strange fat man circled around Su Mo with an incomparably light step and said happily.
But Su Mo had a feeling. If his answer is not correct, this weirdo will probably turn his face in the next second.
"Take it." Su Mo took a step back and said.
"Thank you. Little brother. The strange man picked up the skeleton, and didn't know how his bucket-like body managed to bend over.
"Here, shout at this one more time, Eric, and your Eric will be back to you." The strange man said in a seductive tone.
"Eric!"
The little girl was obviously casual, and she didn't know that she couldn't believe what she said. He shouted at the black skeleton.
It was like a thunderbolt, and like a ray of light falling from the sky, it fell on the black skeleton.
The quiet black skeleton began to move, making a "clucking" sound.
"Elsa, Elsa!" A male voice came from the skeleton. But with great resentment.
"Eric?"
The girl finally sensed that something was wrong, and involuntarily took a step back.
"You turned me into a demon!" The venomous male voice let out a terrible roar that pierced the eardrums.
The strange fat man circled around the two and said happily: "Great, there are lovers who have finally met again." The one who, go and kill Elsa and put on her skin so that you can be together forever. ”
He gave a cruel order in a brisk tone.
"Eric?" The girl looked at the demon approaching her, took two steps back in succession, tripped over something, and fell to the ground without any accident.
He didn't get up as expected, sat on the ground and retreated.
The black skeleton obviously had no way to resist the strange fat man's order, and staggered towards Elsa step by step.
Its forearm bones do not have phalanges, but are directly a knife-like bone blade, which is not a problem to stab or cut.
Walking up to Elsa's side, Eric raised the bone knife.
Then, the bone knife fell, the head fell, the ribs fell, and the skeleton, which was still humanoid, completely fell apart.
"Little ...... Elder brother? The strange man turned, and his yellow-colored eyes under his glasses flashed with a dangerous light.
"I'm sorry, the position of this soul is too punctual, and it will be swallowed directly if you are not careful." Su Mo said.
Of course, his devouring ability is still there, but after devouring his soul, he is not bound and stored as before, but is integrated into the power of the image that turns into a small white flame.
Su Mo could feel that there was an indescribable power hidden in this small flame, which seemed to be nothing, and seemed to include all things, and even Su Mo himself had no way to completely judge it.
"Little brother, you can actually eat souls?" The strange man walked in front of Su Mo, looked at Su Mo condescendingly and said.
"You can control the soul." Su Mo looked up at this strange man.
"Yes." The weirdo directly admitted, "I can use the soul and human despair as materials to make a weapon called 'Demon'. ”
"Ah, remember."
Su Mo's face showed a sudden look, no wonder he felt that the guy in front of him was a little familiar, "You are the Millennium Earl?" ”
"Little brother, you're very smart." Stranger, no, the Millennium Count confessed his identity.
"No, no, I'm just a jack of all trades." Su Mo was not modest at all.
He remembered what kind of world this was.
This world, geographically, is not much different from the earth, of course, this world is also a world with special powers, and there is a special race that has continued - Noah, yes, it is the Noah of Noah's Ark.
Although this is a race, it is actually only a dozen people, and every time a Noah dies, somewhere on earth, a human being becomes the new Noah. This sparse group relies on this completely unscientific and uninformed "Noah factor" to continue.
The purpose of the existence of this race is no different from the big boss in the hot-blooded anime - that is, to destroy humans and dominate the world. At least in Su Mo's not-so-clear memory, the official statement is like this, it can also be said to be the end of the world, similar to Sephiroth.
In addition to the title Noah, this group of terrorists also has a title called "apostles." Of course, the name is not important, what matters is their purpose.
The so-called annihilation of the world is not about smashing the entire earth and then everyone will finish it together. What Noah is currently doing is creating demons and killing humans......
The human beings on the earth are naturally unconvinced, and if you say that we will kill us, then we will not have a lot of face?
So, everyone formed an organization called the "Black Order" and began to rebel.
This organization has branches all over the world, collecting a gadget called "holiness" and its qualified people.
Only the Holy One and its Qualified Ones can use the Demonic weapon created by Noah and the Earl of the Millennium, destroying and killing them.
All other conventional weapons have no effect on Noah and the Demon...... At least the lethality is pitifully weak.
And there are more than 100 holiness in the world.
The war between the Black Order and Noah's apostles lasted for a long time, known as the "War of the Millennium".
In short, this is a strange world where governments are useless, almost negligible, or hiding in the shadows and not knowing what they are doing, watching the "people" that add up to less than a hundred and fifty come and go, and finally decide the fate of the world.
Of course, it is not entirely that less than 150 people participated in the "millennium war" that decided the fate of mankind. On Noah's side, there are a large number of demonic weapons, and on the human side, of course, there are also a large number of peripheral members.
This is the general situation of this world, it is not a quiet and peaceful place.
Compared to the Holy Grail War, the war here is a truly global war.
And the fat man in front of Su Mo, who he called the thousand-year-old earl, is the first apostle, that is, the eldest brother in Noah, it is rumored that this thing has lived for more than 7,000 years, according to this inference, this guy has appeared in the Neolithic Age.
In this case, it is not surprising that the strange clothes and tastes on the body are all primitive people.
Su Mo's taste was also extremely bad back then, and it took a long time to slowly change his concept.
However, this primitive man is very powerful, and has the ability to make the souls of those who are called by the grieving into "single weapons of war" that obey Noah's orders.
It's a pity that this time, there was obviously a mistake when calling, and Su Mo was summoned out for some reason.
This is also the first time that Su Mo has not appeared in the form of a "summoned beast", and he is not restricted by anyone at all.
"That's very good." Su Mo thought in his heart.
"Little brother, you don't have holiness in you, but you can destroy demons and eat souls, it's the first time I've seen such a person." The Millennium Earl said with a smile and stretched out his hand towards Su Mo.
