Chapter 67: The Bad Demon (1)
The Darkest Lands,
"What's the matter?" said Vicious Petri as he walked into the space wearing a solemn dark suit and a bright flame-embellished tie, "I've been invited to address the President's state dinner in five minutes, and if you have anything to say, it's best to start right away." ”
Sally Ye is wearing a pink nurse's uniform today, wearing a headscarf of the same color, looking gentle and amiable. She looked at the handsome and somewhat evil Bilie: "President, I knew that he would be elected, and it has nothing to do with you." ”
"Come on, as if the places where the war is raging right now have nothing to do with you," Pyrret snorted, "why be so hypocritical to each other. ”
Sally shrugged her shoulders and did not object.
"What did you call me for?" said Billie, somewhat impatiently untying his carefully knitted tie, but after glancing at his watch, he re-fastened it with a gloomy face.
Sally glanced back into the void, as if looking at an invisible screen:
"You said you sent a Cerberus?"
"That's right, I said that I would give the high-diving test, and since you don't do it for a long time, then I have to do it myself. Billet looked at his watch again, "Three minutes to go." ”
"So where is that hellhound now?"
"Of course it's dead. That kid is the owner of Twilight's Blade. You're not coming to me just to talk about it, are you? Okay, I'll send a better guy next time. How's the Fire Demon God?"
"You're crazy, the high dive is just a human, and Mike is in the human realm now, if you don't want him to find out about our plans, you'd better be restrained. ”
"Mike, what is he doing on earth, still investigating the Red Knight?"
"How do I know," Sally said angrily, "I'm just a minor character, and he's the punisher in charge of the Flame Sword, do you think that if I ask him, he'll be kind enough to tell me the answer directly?"
"Haven't your brothers and sisters always been harmonious and close? Billet scoffed.
"Oh, Pellet, speaking of brothers and sisters, weren't we brothers and sisters thousands of years ago? ”
Bileri's handsome face twisted, and he stared at Sally viciously.
Sally took a breath of relief and approached Bilie: "Okay, don't talk about this, I didn't come to you today to quarrel with you." I noticed a strange thing around the high diver and I thought you need to take a look. ”
Bilje was looking at his watch: "There's no time, I have to leave immediately, don't care about any strange things, just dispose of it." ”
With that, he turned and stepped into the void.
Sariye hurriedly said, "Wait a minute, where is Anubis now?"
Pellet's voice had already come from the depths of the darkness, and the urn's voice was indistinct: "How do I know, the last time I saw this bastard, he was still supervising the restoration of the crystal pyramid on the banks of the River of the Dead. ”
Sariye stared at the endless darkness for a long time, and slowly turned her body back. The slender figure wrapped in a pink nurse's uniform still emitted a faint white light in this extremely dark place. She looked at the invisible screen, as if she had seen something funny, and suddenly let out a chuckle.
Moments later,
"Well," she whispered to herself, "the more lively the world, the more fun it is, and don't blame me for not warning you beforehand." ”
*
It was a quiet week for high diving, at least on the surface.
Since the monster above his head disappeared, the boss seems to be back to the energetic way he was when he first started his business a few years ago. He no longer always barks at his subordinates, but holds meetings with his subordinates to solve problems. He also formulated some welfare policies, including free supper for overtime work in the evening, etc., and old employees who have worked for a certain number of years also have a relative subsidy weight.
Wang Liang also returned to his post after taking two days of sick leave. Gao Qian secretly observed him for a few days and found that this Wang Liang was no different. When I saw Zhang Wu again, she didn't show embarrassment, but as usual, her sister was long and her sister was short, and she coaxed Zhang Wu to make a few documents for their group white.
Li Si next door seems to be busier, and it is rare for high dives to see him.
And his own puppy still stubbornly maintains a strange posture of sitting on his hind legs, occupying the center of the table. And the recipes are even more offbeat.
Gao Qian found that in addition to drinking milk, the puppy actually ate honey, flowers and fruits, and when he ate it, he had to put it on a dinner plate and serve it to him, and he would eat it. Gao Qian once bought a plastic dog food bowl painted with a cartoon dog's head on it, and after being bitten by this little bastard, he kicked it into the dumpster with his hind legs.
For the sake of this puppy knowing how to consciously use the bathroom, Gao Qian decided to put up with it for the time being. If you like to lie on the table, you can lie on the table, anyway, the puppy doesn't bark or make noise, and when you lie there motionless, it's easy to think that it's just an ornament. And to be honest, this little bastard was quite handsome when he was lying there with pointed ears and upright.
When there is nothing to do after dinner, Gao Qian will take the puppy out for a walk, which is called walking the dog, but actually looking for food for the puppy. Gao Qian later learned from Li Si's mouth that the boss and Wang Liang's head were a kind of inferior demon.
Inferior demons are almost the lowest of the monsters, feeding on the negative emotions of humans. Because their magic power is so low, they can easily penetrate the barriers between the demon and human realms, and when there is a "delicacy" in the human realm that attracts them, they will flock to it.
Bad demons have no body, but they can also have different forms depending on the type of negative emotions they devour humans. For example, the negative emotions in the boss's head belong to greed, and the bad devil who feeds on greed is a mess of rotten meat. The evil demon above Wang Liang's head devoured jealousy, and it looked like a headless spider.
The Bad Demon will escalate after swallowing a certain amount of negative energy, and will affect the host to generate more negative emotions. They parasitize the human body like parasites, and when there are enough "nutrients", they evolve, and vice versa, they also wither and die.
There is no shortage of vendors with greedy demons on their heads, and thieves with disgusting creatures like worms. Gao Qian has also seen multi-legged bed bugs, smashed pumpkins, and a lump of lumps on the top of the crowd's heads, the former belonging to lust and rage, and the latter belonging to anxiety.
In addition to seeing bad demons, high dives can also see various emotions of humans, and different emotions have different color spectrums. As long as Gao Qian wanted to look at it, the crowd in his eyes would be shrouded in various halos, some bright, some dim.
Laziness, arrogance, low self-esteem, fear, deceit, ridicule, sadness...... All sorts of dark negativity pervades the crowd, most of the time they are digested and dissolved by humans on their own, and sometimes they are like piles of garbage that attract filthy monsters.
Gao Qian found that the puppy is not a picky eater, and all the bad devils eat it. It seems to be more interested in greed, jealousy, and rage. The high potential guess is probably that the energy contained in these inferior demons is more sufficient?
Just like the man who followed the high dive tonight. There was a large black mud-like thing on top of his head, like a large pumpkin that had been smashed open, and from time to time a red light would emerge from the cracks of the rotten pumpkin. The puppy in the laptop bag was so excited that he kept trying to jump out of the bag, and the high diver had to press the laptop bag hard.
"Wait, this place might be seen. High Diver whispered.
