Chapter 355: The Situation Is Deadlocked
"Hmm, it's such a spectacular sky-blue divine power barrier, it looks relatively thick. Carlos knocked on the barrier and listened to it make a low noise, this thing was not easy to solve at first glance, and it seemed that dragging one more of him over would not be a good thing.
"Hello, helper from afar, thank you very much for your help, I don't know what to call you?" A strange creature covered in pitch black, whose body was still flowing and changing like thick ink, appeared next to Carlos, and if you looked closely, you could see that this humanoid creature was also flashing a pair of light blue light spots above its body, it should be eyes, it was really some kind of strange demon.
"Carlos Bachitya, a Bacchia worm. "It's inevitable to hide clumsiness, he is not familiar with these people, why should he directly expose his family background to others, that is not interesting at all.
"I'm Guy Murphy Drondodel, a Drondodel Shadow Demon, half a lover of literature, and I like to write a few short poems, draw some pictures, or write a few short stories. Guy introduced himself kindly, it turned out that the shadow demon looked like this, he really hadn't seen a living shadow demon.
Shadow Demon and Shadow Demon are purely two different concepts, the former refers to a demon who is completely lost in the shadows and can control the shadows (of course, like Carlos, who can travel between the shadows and the material world, and can use the power of shadows, will also be called shadow demons by other intelligent beings who are unwitting), and the latter refers to a certain demon race, and the shadow demon should be regarded as a natural shadow demon, and the shadow demon is a shadow demon, but the shadow demon is not equal to the shadow demon.
"Guy, oh, is it the Guy who wrote The Necklace and My Uncle Hule?" Carlos made a joke, Maupassant, a famous French family, is very famous, but most people don't know that Maupassant is just a surname, and the writer's name is Guy.
"No, no, no, it must be the eponymous person, my work is not very famous, and I have only shown it to some friends all along, and it has not been published, so it is definitely not me. Naturally, Guy had never seen Maupassant's work, and he hurriedly waved his hand to show that he was not the same as those with the same name.
As he continued to chat with the Shadow Fiend, Carlos received a lot of useful information, and although the other two Demon Gods did not show up or greet him, the Shadow Demon told Carlos about their physical characteristics and names, as well as some basic information.
The other two demon gods are the white beetle demon god Eddie Blomfield and the Stephanie succubus Anabel Harris Stephanie, who are also the strength of the middle demon gods with the shadow fiend, and they are basically united by Ferdinand, and Ferdinand, as the leader of this loose alliance, naturally gets the most benefits.
And now the battle situation has fallen into a stalemate, the two sides that are deep in the quagmire of war have shown a certain state of exhaustion, Ferdinand and Eddie, the two demon gods, no longer intend to continue to consume, the things that should be grabbed have basically been grabbed, if there is no way to break through the divine power barrier built by the Naxi people, there is no way to further gain benefits, and in this case, it is not an unacceptable thing to retreat.
And the Naxi god Zosia on the opposite side has sent a message of peace not long ago, he is willing to sign a non-aggression pact with these demon gods, and make a certain amount of compensation, it can be said that in this case, both sides no longer want to continue fighting, but the conditions put forward by Zosia are difficult for the demon gods to accept, and the insignificant compensation is not satisfactory.
But the Naxi people who still retain their vitality are unwilling to accept the conditions of the lion's big mouth, they think that they are not really defeated, just a temporary tactical defeat, as long as they have the courage to die together, the demons do not dare to do anything with them, in other words, the dead pig is not afraid of boiling water, if you want money, if you don't give your life, you look at it.
There is no way, since the two sides have not reached a consensus, then they can only continue to fight, anyway, whether it is Naxi Heavenly Father or Ferdinand, they are all guys who don't mind how many people die underneath, even if they are all finished, it is no problem, in this case, it is impossible to make one of them take a step back.
"Thank you, Brother Guy, if you don't mind, can you write it to me?" Carlos thanked Guy very much, if it wasn't for Guy, maybe Carlos was still confused about the situation on the field now, as for the two sides plan to continue to fight, how to fight and other issues, what does it have to do with him, he is just a passerby who comes to visit the mountains and rivers, just help when you need him, and forget about other things.
"Okay, okay, Brother Carlos, here's "Nightmare's Dream" that I just wrote not long ago. Guy handed Carlos a book with a black jacket that had been bound into a volume, the book looked quite thin, I don't know what material it was made of, it felt weird and absurd to the touch, it was a magical book, this power should be the power of shadows, but it was slightly different from the one he used.
Returning to the tent that Ferdinand had prepared for himself, Carlos fell into thought, his arrival did not seem to break the deadlock, the two sides were still facing off, neither side gave in, the current form was not clear, the Naxi people were unwilling to surrender (Zosia was willing to sign a truce with Ferdinand, but was unwilling to sign a surrender treaty), and the demons were unwilling to give up the fat in the turtle shell in front of them, and the contradiction naturally arose.
It seems that this war that lasts for a period of time will continue to be stalemate in the absence of an overwhelming advantage on either side, because Guy and Annabel do not support the withdrawal of the army, and the alliance between Ferdinand and Eddie in the early stage made these two demon gods make a lot of money, and then the two demon gods who joined did not get much benefit, or the benefit was not as big as expected, so they were naturally not satisfied, and Ferdinand and they could not spit out what they had eaten, so the stalemate arose.
In bed, Carlos looked intently at what Guy wrote, different from what he imagined, Guy's writing was still quite good, and Carlos had some feelings after reading the whole book.
"But what should this fall into, satire? no, there is no personal reflection or criticism of the satire of the past hell and other things that have been eliminated by the times; suspense? no, there is no attractive suspense, some plots that seem to be foreshadowing may not even appear later; horror? no, ghosts and curses play more of a role in advancing the plot here, rather than bringing fear to the reader, or that there is not much horror at all when the audience is a demon; fantasy? Forget it, it's just a normal description of society, hell really exists, where does the magic ...... come from," Carlos pondered.
The biggest problem with this book is not that the pen is not enough, but that there are too many elements involved, too many and too miscellaneous, miscellaneous but not refined, basically everything, go down to the ancient tomb to decipher, fight wits and courage with the villain, love and hate entanglement with girlfriends, anti-war thoughts, etc., so many elements are integrated into a short story at the same time, resulting in a lot of feelings at the end of the first reading, but after careful thinking, I found that the whole article is full of holes, and it feels like chewing wax after reading.
Carlos began to write down some suggestions and reflections......
