"That's a long story short. Muscle Daddy said. "I'd love to hear your story. ”

"You were rescued by me, and the first request you asked me to tell a story?" the psychic responded.

"Okay, okay," said the brawny man with a shrug and a spread of his hands. "I have to thank you this time, otherwise my father will be miserable this time. ”

"That's pretty much it. ”

"You are not allowed to tell anyone that I thank you. Muscle Daddy hurriedly added. "If you dare to say it, I will say that you made it up. Daddy doesn't thank anyone. ”

"Then I know it myself. The Psychic Warlock said. "Also, tell me how you got here. You speak yours first, and I'll tell you my story. ”

"Well, there's not much to say. Muscle Daddy's brow furrowed. "You know, the coral girl paid me to join her adventure, so I agreed. Together, we went to Market City, and then to the undead fortress underground. ”

"And then? How did you get caught by the devil? ”

"An ugly thing lurked in that fortress and caught me. Muscle Daddy described. "It looks, well, like this, like a grinder, a complete grinder. I guess it's the height of a tree, it's red like it's roasted, it has horns on its head, it's kind of that ancient creature, you know, the kind of thing that bleats and likes to bang people on the head. ”

"It's called a sheep, and it's not an ancient creature. The sheep on Atas were only extinct after the Battle of Purification, and there are still quite a few of them on Mistara. The Psychic Warlock said. "And where did that devil come from?"

"Well, it came out of nowhere. Bang, bang, bang, and then it popped up. The strong man pointed at the explanation. "Then I wanted to tease it, and I said baa, babble, lamb, daddy will help you with the tall man's disease. And then it got angry. ”

"Obviously, this devil doesn't want your head to be cut off. Muhathir noted.

"yes, that's right. Muscle Daddy nodded. "We fought for 500 rounds, and in the end I was caught by it without paying attention. ”

"Didn't you say that you were besieged by 500 devils and then caught? ”

The strong man's face turned red, and then he made a bold declaration. "Well, there was only one at first. But it later summoned a number of helpers, I didn't count them carefully, but there were more than five hundred. ”

The Psychic Warlock abruptly interrupted the other. "The devil who caught you, is he silent, at most a few words?"

"Listen to that," Muscle Daddy recalled. "That grinder is really not talkative. ”

"He's not a devil, he's a witch-king's impostor. The one who impersonated him was the Shadow King Nibennai, the ruler of Nibennai City, the sixth fighter of the primordial warlocks, and the enemy of the dwarfs. The Psychic Warlock said. "In other words, you were actually captured by the Witch King, and then why did you end up here again?"

"A witch king, it's not a shame to lose to this kind of guy. Soul boy, you do know how to comfort others. Muscle Daddy muttered to himself. "Anyway, the mill - or Nibennay, you say, has caught me. It didn't kill me, I guess it was trying to use me as a hostage, or it was trying to get something out of the air...... Of course, Dad is tight-lipped and won't say anything if he is killed. ”

"The Shadow King is a master of illusion magic, and he can dig out what's in your head without killing you. He can even fake the illusion that you are being rescued, and then let you say everything in your heart. The psychomancer said.

"Well, that makes sense. Muscle Daddy nodded. "Then how do I know you're not a hallucination created by this Shadow King?"

"Nebennay is dead. Muhati said simply.

"Dead?!, a witch king?!" Muscle Daddy was a little incredulous. "How did he die? Don't tell me you or Coral Girl killed him. ”

"He drowned. The Psychic Warlock said.

"Drowned?" repeated Muscle Daddy, frowning and staring at Muhadi. "I guess that pretty much shows that swimming is a dangerous sport, don't you?"

Muhati thought back to his time in the Styx undercurrent and nodded. "That's right, swimming can be dangerous. ”

"I'd love to see what it's like for a witch king to be drowned. Muscle Daddy said. "I have to say, my own experience was not so exciting. After I got caught by that guy, he handed me over to another ugly guy. ”

"Who's that guy? Another devil?"

"If the grinding ghost can really be that ugly, then maybe it is. Muscle Daddy said. Anyway, I thought I was going to die. I almost thought he was going to pull out an axe and hang me at the next hourglass. ”

"How do you hang people with an axe?" Muhadi said.

"Nonsense, of course, cut off the leg first, otherwise how can I hang my father. I'm so tall, the average gallows is too short!" the strong man boasted. "I'll tell you, once upon a time, a witch king tried to hang me. Ha, Lao Tzu stood on tiptoe in the dark sun for three days, and finally escaped at night. ”

"You're bragging. The Psychic Warlock said. "You can't go three days without going to poop. ”

"Who said I didn't?" objected Muscle Daddy. "I'm pulling under my feet. ”

"Okay...... You continue. ”

"But in the end, the guy who was uglier than the grinder didn't kill me. He said strange things like what could I do as a hostage, and how he didn't like to kill a fellow human for no reason. The strong man said. "What a weirdo. ”

"Sounds a bit like Ebb's Polis, and I don't know how many more people deserve to be the companions of the Shadow King. The Psychic Warlock judged. "Polis has completed the ten-layer demon dragon transformation, and I guess his human form is not much better. And he's a well-known human supremacist, and he might have had a nerve at some point. ”

"Another Witch King,, I must be even better than I thought!" said Muscle Daddy.

"You're amazing. The Psychic Warlock said. "And then what happened?"

"Well, I'm a little confused. Muscle Daddy continued. "The ugly guy cast a spell to teleport us, and I'm not a Coral Girl, so I don't know what spell it is...... Anyway, with a bang, we were teleported into the ice and snow where the birds don't. ”

Then the ugly guy met up with another grinder. Tall, bearded, with hooves and horns, and a tail on his butt...... In short, it's a typical grinding ghost. Muscle Daddy said. "I didn't hear what they were talking about. Presumably magic. ”

He continued, "Then, the two of them seemed to have agreed on something. The ugly thing then left, and then the big grinder locked me up in his castle. ”

"Is this the devil's castle?" the psychic mancer raised his voice. "Are you saying that there is collusion between Polis of Abu and Mephistophelis, Lord of the Eighth Layer of Barto?"

"I don't know any Murphy, the mill is still human, and there is no one with that name. The strong man said.

"This castle ......," Muhadi gestured with his hands outstretched. "This is the fortress of Mephistopheles Phyllis. ”

"Then maybe it did collude with Polis. "Muscle daddy spreads his hands. "What's the matter with us?"

"The relationship is big, which means that Polis may be in this fortress. The Psychic Warlock said. "I have to inform Sadiri and Kailin that we have to be ready to fight. ”

"Coral Girl and that dove of peace are here too?" said Muscle Daddy. "Good news, they're here. I kind of think we have a better chance of winning. ”

"I'm going to use my ability to get in touch with Sadiri. The Psychic Warlock said. "You'd better be prepared, she might teleport us away with a teleportation spell. ”

"Wait, I'll look for a silver sword first. It was originally the old Gis Sere man named Daken. It's a pity that when the witch king captured me, he killed him. Muscle Daddy said. "That's really a sword, indestructible. They've got it here, and I'm going to get it. ”

Muhadi nodded, then focused on his abilities and tried to get in touch with Sadiri and Kailin.

He didn't succeed, and it looked like the two men happened to be in the area blocked by the spell.

"What's wrong?" asked Muscle Daddy. "Your eyes are glowing all the time, and you look stupid. ”

"I can't reach them. The Psychic Mancer admitted.

"Do I need to start worrying?" asked Muscle Daddy.

"Not yet, there are a lot of spells in this fortress that block abilities. Mohathir explained. "Let's get out of here and then find them. ”

"Do you have any plans?"

"My plan consists mainly of improvisation. The Psychic Warlock said. "Let's take one step at a time. ”

"It sounds like a well-thought-out, reassuring plan. Muscle Daddy commented. "Seeing your leadership skills gives me a little more confidence in our chances of survival.

The two walked together, and the muscular daddy got the silver sword that once belonged to Daken, and the mercury-like blade perfectly reflected the scene of everything falling on it. Muhati noticed that the sword seemed to be different when it was in Muscle Daddy's hand than it was when it was in Daken's hand. The blade became longer and wider to suit the former's tall stature. Perhaps this sword has the ability to change its form, adjusting its center of gravity and shape to suit the user.

Luckily, the devil didn't torture the gladiator champion of Ulrick City much, at least he had no problem walking. The Psychic Warlock didn't want to be a burden in Mephistophelis's fortress.

Muhathir tried again to use his abilities to contact his companions, but again failed. He paused to think about it and decided to go deeper into the fortress. There were more areas blocked by spells, and they were most likely searching for those places.

The two descend the spiral staircase in the fortress and encounter the devil guards in their way, and Muscle Daddy chops them down, and the psychic mancer's ability tears the fish apart.

"I have a question......" Muscle Daddy asked after cutting down another batch of blocking demons. “...... It's not surprising that you said that Coral Girl and the dove of peace were in the fort as well. But where's that psionic girl? I heard she didn't come on an adventure with you?"

Muhadi replied as he shredded the last guard with his ability. "She's not here. ”

"What? You let her run away again?"

"Let's just say that. The Psychic Mancer sighed and said, the ground was covered in devil's blood, slippery and sticky, and he had to be very careful when walking.

"I didn't say you ......," Muscle Daddy said. "But you, as a mind-reading guy, don't understand women too much. Can this make her run away?"

"It's complicated, I can't explain it to you. The Psychic Warlock briefly explained how he had come here from the Undead Fortress, but omitted the specific reason for Aisha's departure, saying only vaguely that she couldn't help her if she stayed.

Muscle Daddy nodded after hearing this, and said comforting the psychic warlock in a manly tone. "I'm telling you, women always like to talk about why men are useless. Damn, men don't exist in the world to make their lives more convenient! So you don't have to take it too seriously. ”

"It's not what you say. Muhati pouted in denial. "Besides, if you understand women so well, why have I never seen a woman you have been in a relationship with for a long time?"

"I actually prefer lads to women...... Truth be told, if it weren't for a pair of boobs and a sewer, I'm sure most men would be more willing to socialize with other men. "Muscle Daddy began to promote his strange theories.

"Your assumptions don't hold water, so your conclusions are wrong. ”

"Hey, hey, hey...... Yes, I don't deny that women are made to look like this, and they are indeed somewhat attractive. Muscle Daddy continued. "I've tried to get along with a few women before, but most of them don't quite like me...... There was a girl who claimed to like men with a sense of humor - and it turned out that the funniest thing she thought was had to be a big box of gold coins I had saved. ”

"Then I met another woman, but how to put it, she's a...... person," said Muscle Daddy. "One time I gave her an incense candle, you know it's the one that repells insects. Later, I actually smelled the smell of smoke underneath her. ”

"Maybe it's because she thinks you're better than a candle. Mohamad commented. "See the door up ahead? It's sealed. ”

"Well, I also observed this obvious fact. The strong man teased. "How are you going to get there?" This gate is as tall as the gates of Tyre, and is clearly opened by mechanisms. ”

"I'm going to get in through this ventilation pipe next to it. Muhadi said, "There is a spell attached to this door, which is difficult to destroy and cannot be transformed into an imaginary body and float past." ”

"I can't get into such a narrow ventilation tunnel. Muscle Daddy said. "I'll stay outside to prevent any grinder from getting in and spanking your ass. You can go around to the back of the door and open it again. ”

"That's it. The Psychic Warlock finished speaking, and then tore open the metal shell of the ventilation pipe with his ability. A large white puff of hot steam immediately erupted from where the pipe had burst. The devils seem to use steam to power the fortress's huge machines and defenses, as well as to keep them warm.

Muhadi showed his ability to tolerate elemental damage, and then he got into the pipe. It was narrow and hot inside, and his vision was poor, so he could only crawl forward.

Muscle Daddy stood outside with a silver sword, and luckily so, as Muhadi's sabotage of the steam pipes seemed to have triggered some kind of alarm. Four or five bone demons rushed out of nowhere and fought with the strong man.

The bone demons are armed with spear-like weapons, and they are perfectly coordinated in attack and defense, and they are disciplined at a glance. But the silver sword in the muscular daddy's hand is too powerful, it is really light and fast, indestructible, and every blow can destroy the spell effect of the Barthez devils, so it can still firmly gain the upper hand.

Seeing that the situation was unfavorable, the Bone Demons began to summon reinforcements. More demons arrived, and the Muscle Daddy danced his sword in a circle, forcing them to get closer. Some devils tried to cast spells to attack, but they were blocked by the silver sword, and some devils who tried to force the attack, their shields could not resist the swing of the silver sword.

Muhadi sped up to crawl when suddenly there was some movement in front of him. A swarm of bat-like fire demon bats suddenly appeared in the steam pipes. The psychic warlock is under the enemy's back, and he is bound and unable to use it. Muhadi gritted his teeth and concentrated on an amplified mental explosion, and the fire demon bats fell to the ground as if they were demented, unable to move.

He used his ability to boil through the pipes and emerge from behind the door. The guards here are also weak, with only a few Hellpurgator who are like technicians. They seemed to be visibly reluctant to fight, and after fighting Muhadi, they only had a slight advantage and teleported away using their innate spell-like abilities.

The psychic mancer moves the massive mechanism, and the door slowly opens. When a crack was opened, Muscle Daddy came through it. "Close the door!" he yelled. "The grinding ghost is coming after you!"

Muhadi struggled to reverse the mechanism, and the door gradually closed. One of the Bone Demons tried to rush through the crack in the door, but was kicked back by Muscle Daddy. The other two Bone Demons reached for their hands at the last moment before the door closed completely, trying to stall for time. Fortunately, his arm was cut off by the silver sword.

"It's dangerous. Muscle Daddy said in shock.

"I thought you could fight five hundred devils. The Psychic Warlock said.

"The bone demons I'm talking about are dangerous, but now they're boasting. Muscle Daddy said. "They can come home and brag about their wives and friends. On this day, he met the invincible muscular daddy and the psionic boy, and finally left alive. ”

"They don't have wives and friends...... Wait a minute. Muhati said suddenly, interrupting the other man. "I can now contact Satili and them. ”

The Psychic Warlock unleashes a supernatural ability that touches the mind of the Coral Witch. "I've found something here. ”

"Have you found the place of the wise men?" he replied, sensing the other man's thoughts.

"Not yet, but I found another person and got interesting news. The Psychic telemancer communicated. "I think we should meet first and then discuss what to do. ”

After a few moments, he felt the other party's response. "Okay...... But there are a lot of enemies on my side, and I'm afraid I won't be able to clean them up for a while. ”

"There are very few enemies on my side. The Psychic telemancer communicated. "You can come with Kailin to my side. ”

Muhadi received an affirmative reply, and then waves of magic came from the void ahead, and a portal gradually took shape in the air.
