Chapter 258: The King in Yellow
In an instant, the two of them had already arrived in the misty space where Liyong had been three times before.
There was still an overwhelming fog in front of him, of course, in fact, he now knew that this was not actually a fog, but a poisonous bacteria, so Liyong immediately dispersed these "fogs" to prevent them from approaching Concubine Xia's body.
"Your Highness, haven't you seen those ancient gods before, and what is your impression of them?"
While walking in this foggy world, Concubine Xia suddenly felt a little cold, and had to try to chat with the person next to her to divert her attention.
"Impressions...... How to say it.,To be precise, there are only two people who have communicated.,They're the fire dumplings and the grumpy octopus.,In short, it's very bad.,It's completely impossible to communicate normally.。 ”
At this time, Ryon remembered the situation when he met with the "Igniter - Ketugua" and the "God of Sleep" - Cthun, the former looked like he "couldn't understand the small thoughts of you humans", and the latter directly wanted to pat him flat and feed him to the baby octopus or something......
But then again, although I am nominally a demon king, I am actually just the head of the Dark Heir, and in the eyes of the old gods, I guess it is a little better than ordinary humans, right?
"Hehehe, you're not right, and by the definition of a human being, there is actually not much difference between a single-celled organism and an algae organism. ”
However, just as Rion was thinking about the old gods, a very strong-sounding voice suddenly sounded around him, and he said something very timely as if he could read Rion's psychology.
"What people!"
Suddenly, Li Yong only felt a chill in his back, and immediately pulled out the "Broken Star" to protect himself and Concubine Xia's front.
"I'm not human, and I'm afraid it's hard to describe my existence in words, but you can call me "Hasta", and in the clan you call me "the king in yellow". ”
Like mercury flowing from the sky, a tall, bloated figure dressed in yellow appeared in front of them, the voice of which was completely obscured by a silver-white mask and yellow hood, and there was no specific appearance in sight.
Not human, not demons, not even any known creature.
Although the "King in Yellow" suddenly appeared with an almost human silhouette, the moment he saw it, he knew that it was definitely not something he imagined, or even something that anyone imagined, because it was far beyond the imagination of any intelligent being.
"Temple...... Your Highness!"
"......Shhh King of the Yellow Coat, it seems that you are in a better state than the other ancient gods, and you can actually break away from that little octopus monster to move freely in this area?"
Perhaps because of the relationship he had dealt with this group of unspeakable things, although Li Yong tensed the nerves of his whole body, he did not tremble with fear like Concubine Xia.
Of course, this can't be blamed on Concubine Xia, in fact, except for Rion, Aurora and Lilith in today's world, it is estimated that no creature can keep calm when facing Hasta, because the unknown is always the most terrifying, especially Hasta is the unknown of the unknown......
"It doesn't matter to me whether I'm in shape or not, I can be anywhere if I want to, it's just not necessary. ”
As if mocking Rion's superficial insight, the voice coming from the silver-like but constantly twisting mask was calm and terrifying, but the sense of superiority could be felt.
This is not to say that the Yellow King's attitude is arrogant or anything, in fact, there is no such thing as arrogance or arrogance in his thinking, but Hasta has actually tried to be as careful as possible when speaking, so as not to hurt the unnecessary self-esteem of the Demon King in front of him.
"I see...... Does that mean you're not the same as the guys at Ketugea, Kthun, and Yafermza?"
Because he had seen the residual consciousness of Cthun and Ktugea before, Rion could feel that the Hasta in front of him was much clearer in terms of presence than the first two, which could be said to be similar to the existence between the virtual and the real...... Or to put it bluntly, I don't know what kind of existence it is.
"There is no need to dwell on my existence, because it is meaningless, but I have a question that I wonder, why did you, as the last descendant of our dependents, choose to be our enemy?"
When it came to this topic, I thought that the "King in Yellow" would pick and choose to do something like Cthulhu, but in fact, at this time, Hasta did not look impatient or angry at all, and said it very naturally, as if he was asking about the dish for dinner tonight.
Why is this problem again...... Hearing this, Liyong couldn't help but smile bitterly, as if the big fireball had been asking this before, but it was really difficult for him to answer.
Do you want to put it bluntly, in fact, Lao Tzu is not the last emperor of the dark heir at all, but the brave pawn of the creator god? Moreover, it was Azathoth, the boss of your ancient gods, who made Lao Tzu like this, so it is all your boss's fault?
If you say this, it's one thing to believe it or not, it is estimated that Concubine Xia next to her will be so frightened that she will have a miscarriage on the spot, so it is impossible for Liyong to say this.
After a moment of silence, he said slowly, "If I don't make enemies of you, will I have a good life when the ancient gods return to the world?"
"That...... In fact, we have never had ill will towards demons or humans, so why would you be so resistant to us as humans?"
In response to what Riona sounded like he had said, but after pondering it and saying nothing, Hasta shook his huge yellow cloak as if he sighed.
"Malice? Yes, maybe you don't have subjective malice, but so what? Your own existence is a great disaster for the world. ”
After listening to Hasta's words, Riyong suddenly became angry, and he now decided to say that everything on the surface is the fault of the deal, so as not to make people think that he is a bone boy in his bones.
"What do you mean by that?"
"Do elephants have ill will towards ants?"
"No, it won't. ”
"But what if a herd of elephants floods into the world of ants? Even if there is no malice, as long as the elephant goes out for a walk on the street, the dead and injured ants will be counted in tens of thousands, so what difference does it make if there is no malice or not?"
This is an interesting and logical answer. ”
Hasta nodded when he heard this, but then he continued: "But if it is logical, our return is only to retrieve our own things, if you use your description to describe it, it is that this world originally belonged to elephants, and ants are just a group of stowaways, how can this be explained?"
After listening to Hasta's words, Riyon didn't understand the meaning of this sentence for a while, so he had to stay stunned and couldn't speak.
"Oh, you don't seem to know what you look like, could it be that the ten murals I left behind haven't been discovered yet?"
When he saw that the other party didn't reply, the king in yellow began to talk to himself, but what he said was listened to by Liyong.
Wait? Ten frescoes? Does it refer to ...... "Horus frescoes"?
In an instant, a thought crossed Lyon's mind like lightning, he had thought countless times before about who left the ten murals, but he didn't expect to get an answer here.
Although it is called "Horus Mural", Horus is actually just the discoverer of those things, that is to say, it is not what he did, but what he discovered, and the real creator is the "King of Yellow" Hasta!
"Forget it, it's a trivial matter anyway...... Don't you need the power in my hands? ”
At this moment, Hasta seemed to give up thinking and lifted the yellow cloak on his left side.
Beneath the cloak, there was not a living body, but an eye of the storm visible to the naked eye! And on that scale, it was as if there was an entire universe inside!
