Chapter 620: Liberation
In the castle in the mountains, Alyux defended the law and personally demonstrated to ten refugees what it means to be a martyr's salvation.
After the noise of exclamation was a little quieter, he laughed like a night owl: "Huh......
Which of you comes first? Don't let her wait. β
Where did everyone dare to answer, they fought one after another, their faces were full of horror, and their upper and lower teeth were fighting, but they didn't make a sound.
Seeing this, Aliux was furious, and the red mist around him boiled wildly, and he shouted hysterically: "She has saved so many people, so many people, but she is still called by God and is willing to be a martyr."
You all have hands and feet, and you live a comfortable life, but you are not satisfied, and you want to get more. You say, "What are you compared to her?" and are you worthy of her risking her life to save you?
You, you, and you, come up for me. You should also taste the flames and feel the suffering she suffered at that time. Without martyrdom, how can there be salvation?"
Dongfang Chen watched Alyux's words and deeds become more and more bizarre and extreme, and he couldn't help but be shocked in his heart: What the hell is going on with this guy? Who is "she" in his mouth?
Can he see "her"? I'll go, a typical delusional psychopath.
Dongfang Chen's guess was right, as early as after that bad night, Alyux had become more and more unable to distinguish between reality and illusion, and every moment he would see the figure of Anyes in various corners around him, all of which looked like him, but he couldn't see his face clearly.
Especially after he saw the magic of Shadow Quicksand for the first time, he was deeply attracted by it. In his own words, he fell in love with the sand and fire of red, and he took the quicksand of Shadow as the embodiment of Anyes.
Every time he saw the quicksand of Shadow sweep past the creatures, leaving only a shriveled and withered corpse, it was as if he had once again witnessed the hand of AΓ±yes, scorched by fiery lava. So after he really got the quicksand, he had an uncontrollable impulse to frantically use the murder weapon in his hand to kill people constantly, so that the scene of the year would be repeated again, and the unforgettable thrill of despair and the beauty of withering would be recalled over and over again. At the same time, he also relied on the privilege that the quicksand of the shadow would not really hurt him, and from time to time let the red mist torture himself repeatedly, so that he could feel the pain of burning himself again and experience the pain of his lover being caught in the sea of fire.
In fact, in this case, Alyux is a complex of psychopaths, not only with severe paranoia, but also with persecution paranoia, sadomasochistic tendencies, antisocial personality, and necrophilia.
Dongfang Chen was afraid that if he waited any longer, Alukes would not be able to suppress the impulse to slaughter, so he hurriedly flashed in front of the refugees, blocking between them and Alyux, and then removed the invisibility, revealing his true body, and laughed loudly: "Haha, it's better to let me be this martyr and see your so-called salvation."
How's it going? Alyux of the Heroes!"
Faced with the stranger who suddenly broke in, Alyux was obviously surprised, but he relied on the artifact on his body, and after a little panic, he calmed down again, and said coldly: "Who are you? How did you find here?"
Dongfang Chen didn't answer, and the figure of Solomon was vaguely shown around him. Seeing the appearance of the second person, Alyux finally panicked and screamed, "Is it you?
Oh no, it's the Pure Land Exile. Those bastards haunted me, and I knew there was such a day. β
Solomon was also not polite, and said coldly: "Since you know, then don't waste everyone's time." Surrender the artifact obediently, and then listen to us. β
Alyux's mind immediately came to life: these two fellows must be fully prepared to find me without noticing, and their attitude is calm, and it is clear that they will win.
Solomon, I know that although he defected from the Pure Land as an exile, he followed the false gods, and I heard that even his evolution to the first order was helped by the false gods, so I think there are some means.
So who is the other silver-haired young man? Huh? I remember, isn't that guy the leader of the God Butcher Regiment who has become famous for more than ten years?
Oh my God, this is the only group of gods that can confront the pseudo-gods head-on, and the Pure Land exiles have cooperated with them? Damn, fortunately there is no impulsive action, and there is still room for redemption.
It's a big deal, so hand over the Shadow Quicksand and go back with them to accept the family trial. For the sake of what has happened in the past, maybe you can still survive.
Well, that's it!
After figuring it out, Alyux softened suddenly, and said with a smile on his face: "Oh, it turns out that the family sent someone, why didn't you come earlier, let me wait for thousands of years."
To be honest, I don't want to go back to my family all the time. Of course, the artifact is offered with both hands, and all the fault is borne by me. β
Solomon was disgusted in his heart, and sneered: "Just now I said that the ghost of the family is not gone, and now I am looking forward to it? β
Alyux smiled even more humbly: "Lord Hero King said that he laughed, no matter what you say, you are also the leader of our heroes, how dare you be presumptuous in front of you? β
Dongfang Chen took two steps forward, stretched out a hand to Aliux, spread his palm, and said lightly: "Okay, then hand over the artifact first, and after handing over the artifact, we will talk about the rest." β
Alyux subconsciously took two steps back and said with a sneer: "This lord is joking, the quicksand of the shadow is a heavy treasure of our clan, and it is better to hand it over in front of the gods and servants of Aloy." β
Dongfang Chen laughed when he heard this: "At the beginning, the Aloy Divine Servants trusted you so much, the Shadow Quicksand said that you would rob it, and countless civilians could kill if you wanted to, but now that you are at the end of the road, do you remember those old immortal divine servants again?"
Alyux, don't be delusional. Today, the master put his words here, and said that the Aloy Divine Servant, even if the Pure Land exiles gather here today, they will all exonerate and intercede for you, Lao Tzu will kill you!
Rushing to the millions of bones scattered all over the mountain streams here, do you think you can still see the sun outside?
Hmph, this is the so-called hero? Let those crazy people see for themselves, what kind of goods they have made?"
As soon as Dongfang Chen's voice fell, Solomon felt a pain in his heart, blaming that guy for being open-mouthed and revealing everyone's scars, but at this moment, it was Alyux who was completely out of control.
I saw him first look up to the sky and laugh wildly, then the laughter changed from manic to sad, and then slowly bent down, lost his voice and cried bitterly, tears rolled down, and fell to the ground.
"Do you think I want to be a hero? Do I have the right to choose this kind of birth, this heart, this body?
Do you think I don't want to be an ordinary person, even if it's a farmer, a fisherman, a blacksmith, a homeless beggar.
However, they would not allow even such a small wish. In their eyes, they only needed heroes, so I became a hero.
All my self-harm and suicide behaviors don't matter to them, my pain, my love and hate, my wishes, in their eyes are worthless, nothing, they want nothing but heroes.
For this reason, they did not hesitate to spend a lot of energy to recycle me, and summon the altar in the new Heroic Spirit, and Alyux, who had only wanted to live an ordinary life with his lover, was dead, and the hero Alyux was recalled.
Hehe, since they can't get rid of the identity of a hero, let them see, what will a hero who has completely lost his humanity do?
Your name is Dongfang Chen, right? The famous head of the God Slaughter Regiment, I know that I am not your opponent, and I never thought that I could live in your hands, so please do it, please come and give me relief, thank you in advance!
Captain of the East, if the family still wants to ask about me, please tell them that Alyux has not been a hero since the first time he saw her.
I'm sorry for the trouble you've caused all these years!"
As soon as Alyux's voice fell, he saw all the red mist come out of his body, and in the blink of an eye, all of them flew back into the jar-like container. With a click, the lid automatically flew to reseal the opening.
After doing all this, Alyux let go of all his defenses, froze all his scheming thoughts, showed a relaxed smile that he had never seen before, and opened his arms and said, "Come on, let me be free!"
Dongfang Chen was silent for a long time, stretched out his hand to hold a handful, and a blue javelin was instantly generated in his palm. As he stepped forward, he said, "I know that there is pity for the abominable, but Alyux, you have gone too far. β
The syllable of the last word of this passage had just been formed, and the afterimage of Dongfang Chen had already appeared face to face in front of Alyx, and the spear of Gamanus entered through his chest and came out through his back.
Alyux struggled to hold Dongfang Chen's arm tightly, and his mouth made a uh-uh-uh-uh sound, his shriveled face full of fear.
Then, he tried to squeeze out an incomparably terrifying smile, and two lines of clear tears flowed from the corners of his eyes.
"Go, go to her, may you be a mortal at will in the next life!"
Aliux nodded vigorously with the last of his strength, and then his head tilted, his body weakened, and he died in Dongfang Chen's arms.
There was silence, only the whirring of torches, but at this moment it was very clear, as if whispering, like a dull elegy.
Dongfang Chen stared at the container that encapsulated the Shadow Quicksand for a long time, gently put Alyux's body flat on the ground, and then said in a deep voice: "Lord Priest, please inform RC to send someone to deal with the aftermath, it's better not to spread the word about the matter here."
Next, it's time to go to China. Hehe, I haven't been back for a long time, and I'm really ashamed to say that when I was a historical researcher in the past, I was basically thinking about foreign affairs, but I was thinking about the history of civilization in my motherland......
I really haven't paid much attention to it!"
