Chapter 6: Memories of Hope: Hope and Despair
As time passed, the dark clouds that hung over De Muilan Island were accumulating more and more, and there was a feeling that a storm was coming. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
A new round of slave ships slowly passed through the Black Sea, but instead of strange demons standing on the black deck, they were dressed in gold or pure silver armor, with solemn faces, and the badge on their chests was a scorching white sun, heralding the light coming to the earth!
Smack!
A small brown foot stepped on the side of the ship, revealing a petite figure, dressed in a tuxedo but a goblin!
"Karby, are you thinking about Skana them?" A blonde man suddenly appeared behind the goblin, he was tall and mighty, his golden armor was dazzling, his blue eyes were like a pure ocean, and the big sword behind him was more than two meters long, and the sword body was engraved with dense magic patterns, which was obviously of great value.
"Butan, you also know the situation of Demuilan, you go to that hellish place, you never know if you will be alive in the next second. Instead of the greedy gaze and the standard treacherous expression, Kalbi had a look of depth and silence.
"Well—I don't know about anyone else, but nothing will happen to Scana!!How long will it be before we get to Demuilan?" said Butan, in a thick voice.
Calbi stretched out his thin arm, the wrist-bound pointer pointing straight north, and a red ring around it was lit up about nine-tenths of the way.
"According to the pointer, there are about three days!" Calbi said in a deep voice.
"Three days, three days later, I'll send this damn place to hell to meet their demon god!" said Butansen.
Calby sat cross-legged on the bow of the boat, looking at the gray sky from afar, and the hatred in his eyes was about to come out...
Wizard's Tower.
The hall was silent, and the lichs gathered around the container that had almost been reduced to slag, and the trough above the head of the machine showed more than nine percent!
"It's incredible! So many times on the verge of death, this little imp has managed to survive! This kind of willpower is terrifying!" Dudek's eyes lit up, and there was a hint of greed in his eyes as he looked at Ike.
"The Elven Fountain of Life is so precious that we've used up all of our stock to keep him alive!" Arthurs nodded, "But I didn't expect your plan to come true!"
"It's going to take about half a day!" Dudek calculated quickly.
Dididi――――
Suddenly, a red light burst out, a rapid alarm sounded, and everyone's faces changed.
"Health is starting to drop again!Hell, the fusion level is going up like crazy!It's about to break ten!" Dudek panicked and rejoiced.
"How so?" Arthurs rubbed his head.
"The Hellsovereign's power is rising!He is not willing to be controlled!Launching a final attack!" One of the lichs said suddenly.
"Old Bly was right. Dudek quickly controlled, inputting those incomparably precious potions.
Although Old Bulli is not very strong, he is the oldest old monster among all the lichs, and his knowledge even exceeds that of the great lich Demuylan, and his analysis is very reasonable. Although the power of the Roots is strong, they also seem to have their own personalities! Some of the Roots are docile and do not reject the fusion of creatures, while others are unruly, like the Evil Helllord!
After a while, the alarm finally came into contact, and they were relieved.
"It's under control for the time being, and at this rate, he will inherit the power of the Helllord at night!" Dudek said in a trembling voice, is the plan that has been planned for thousands of years finally going to succeed?
"Completing the fusion is only half of the battle!The most important thing is control!" Arthurs said solemnly, "If we can't control this guy, not only will he not be a sharp weapon in our hands, but he will also hurt us!"
"That's a real problem, this kid has so much willpower, we're going to have to work on it. Dudek was a little helpless, it was paradoxical to say, fusion required the experimenter's strong willpower, but implanting the idea of control required the experimenter to let down his guard.
"Tsk, I have a way!" Arthurs's round body shook and shook, a terrifying smile appeared on his face, and an aura of conspiracy was spreading!
On the other hand, Ike, who has been in a coma, has experienced a different flavor.
It was a chaotic world, when the stars were born, gradually creating a complete moment, and the roots of power and rules quietly grew between heaven and earth, covering the sun, moon, mountains, seas, lakes, swamps, deserts, and abysses.
The triangular pyramid-shaped Helllord was born in an abyss, the seat of the legendary Demon Realm. It is one of the first roots of birth, possessing extremely evil power, but inherently restraining evil, he can absorb the source of power in the demon's body, and can also control weak demons.
In those chaotic times, the Hellsovereign had always been in charge of an emperor, unruly and hungry for the next master, naïve and aggressive, wanting only to be the most powerful root, not one of the ten strongest.
Ike witnessed the bloody struggle and the Forgotten Lands, and he walked and experienced like a traveler. Slowly, the light in front of me disappeared, and the Hellsovereign came!
Wow!
Ike blinked, looking at the person in front of him in surprise.
"Who are you..."
"Am I not you?" the man began, with a smirking look on his face.
"I, how could it be? I'm just an ugly bastard. Ike shook his head, although the person in front of him was not handsome and chic, but his appearance was above average, didn't he know what he looked like?
"Don't believe me?" the man clasped his hands to his chest, pursed his lips and touched his chin, then patted his head and said, "Look!"
Whew――
The wind was howling, and a rippling mirror made of water stood in front of Ike, who saw him clearly!
Ike was stunned, and found that he was no longer hunched, and his hair was no longer thinning, and even his face was back to normal, and he was tall.
"What's going on?" Ike looked around blankly, as if searching for an answer.
"Those lichs have poured a lot of fountain of life on you, and if you don't return to the ordinary people, you will be sorry for the honorific title of holy water. The man quipped.
"And who are you?"
"I, I said, I'm you, the other you, but you can only see me here. "There was something lonely about the man, or he exuded a lonely quality.
Ekmeran, he was familiar with the taste of loneliness, and suddenly he believed what this man said, maybe he was him. Legend has it that this little person lives in people's hearts, and he is another self, which has nothing to do with good and evil, nothing to do with demons, just himself.
"Of course, you can also call me Xiao Ai, the Evil Hell Monarch is called that, and I wouldn't have appeared without it. The man shrugged.
"Then why am I in this place?"
"Because you have become its master, you have been its third master since it ceased to fight! He thirsts for proof, and you thirst for power, and you are the reason why you are here, and I am the medium through which you communicate. ”
"Strength!" Ike looked down at his fair skin, "but I'm cut off from magic, and even the purest form of physical art can't succeed at all." ”
"No! everything changed from the moment you had the Hellsovereign, as one of the most powerful roots in the world, well, he asked me to remove one of them. Ahem, as the most powerful root in the world, he never needs to be recognized by the elements, but to control it!" Xiao Ai waved his hand, and the white world finally flickered.
Pale gold, green, ocean blue, orange, brownish, cyan, purple, creamy, jet black...
They are dotted and dancing in the air, mischievous as children.
Ike stretched out his finger and lightly tapped a purple elemental, it seemed to be a little frightened, but it still trembled and floated over!
"Don't be afraid, little one!" Ike smiled, teasing him, reminding him of a puppy he had met on his wanderings.
Perhaps sensing Ike's kindness, the purple element let go of his courage and jumped on his palm, and a cheerful and joyful mood was transmitted, crispy and numb.
"Oh, this guy from the Helllord said that you don't spend as much time communicating with them, just enslave them directly, that's a waste of time!" said Xiao Aikuku.
"Why do I have to be enslaved, and if he can help me, why should I put on a straight face and be a tyrant?" Ike smiled, Skarna's explanation looked effective, and Ike's world gradually brightened.
"Ha, this guy is silent?" Xiao Ai cracked his mouth and laughed.
Knock knock!
Suddenly, the place shook up and down, as if an earthquake had struck.
"What's going on?" Ike asked, trying to stay in shape.
"Damn! those lichs are starting to unleash psychic magic, and they want to control you!" Xiao Ai was furious, and her long hair stood on end, like a raging lion. "Ike, the connection here is about to collapse, remember!Don't succumb to the Lich's methods, you are the master of the Hell Monarch, not the slave of the Lich!!"
Syllable!
Finally, the world crumbled, and Ike opened his eyes suddenly. Scanning his surroundings, he saw a group of lichs surrounding him, muttering words and exuding an invisible power that wanted to burrow into his head.
"Ahh
Bite!
The Hellsovereign, who was already inside Ike, roared, and the black power overflowed from the holes in his skin, enveloping Ike firmly, and the pain was alleviated a lot.
"The Hellsovereign is fully activated! I knew it!" Dudek slammed on the metal console, and the first round of mind control failed!
"This is normal, if we are not immune to even our mind control, the Hellsovereign will not be one of the strongest sources. "Arthurs is in a good mood.
"What then, wait for Lord Lich to return?" Dudek asked, tilting his head.
"No, there's a way!
Knock knock knock -
On the wall to the right of the hall, the special metal layer suddenly rises to reveal a crystal window. In the large room, a figure was pacing, the sound of footsteps echoing clearly through the hall.
"Skarna, what are you calling him here for?" Dudek was puzzled.
"His persistence is because of him, and his abandonment will be due to him!What more way to break the will than despair and excitement?, well, that's wonderful!" Arthurs held out his hands and embraced the air, a sickly look of joy on his face.
"Hah! Arthurs, you're cunning!" said Dudek with a meaningful smile.
"Keep your eyes open, little ghost!"
"What are you going to do?" said Ike weakly, having of course seen Skarna, and he thought the lich was trying to use Scana to force him.
Soon, Arthurs appeared in the room.
"You're finally here, where is Ike?" Scana looked at Arthurs coldly.
"He's right next door, don't worry, he's fine, you'll be able to see him soon. Arthurs said with a smile.
"Tell me, what the hell do you want to do?" said Scana lightly, he didn't believe Arthurs would have such good intentions from the beginning.
"Just talking. Arthurs randomly picked a chair and sat down, "I'm just curious, why is the battle of the Holy See so fierce, and why did you betray them?"
Skarna frowned, his gaze wary at Arthurs.
"I said I was just a victim, and I'm here to protect me and my buddies by doing things for you. ”
"No matter what, it can't hide the fact that you betrayed the Holy See of Light! Not to mention that you also contributed the recipe of Heavenly Love! You should know what its appearance will bring! It may not be able to break through the defense of the Heavenly Trench Fortress, but it is enough to make you suffer heavy losses!"
"What do you mean by that?" said Skarna, his fist creaking and gritting his teeth.
"Nothing? just wanted to hear from you, you, admit you're a traitor?" Arthurs narrowed his eyes, his fingers crossed, his elbows resting on his thighs.
"I said..."
"Yes or no! It's important! The Great Lich commanded! You should know what to do!" Arthurs put his right leg on his left leg with a look of arrogance.
Skaner was silent, silent for a long time, before he struggled to spit out a word, which made him tremble all over, as if it had consumed all the strength of his body.
"Yes!"
"Very well, you made the right choice!Oh, you'll have to wait a little longer, I'll arrange for you to meet soon, I'm sure it will be funny!" Arthurs got up and walked away.
Syllable!
When the door to the room was locked, Skarna slumped in a chair, his face cloudy, unable to see what Arthurs was doing. Could it be that his plan had already been discovered by Demuilan?
Dididi――
At that moment, a stream of heat surged up in Skerna's chest, and he snapped to his feet, his eyes bursting with semen.
"Okay! It's finally here, are you going to start blowing the horn of the counterattack?Ike, wait for me, I'll get you out! I'm not going to break my word!" Scana smiled at the thought of the innocent and lonely teenager, and his face was soothing and serene.
・・・
"Yes!"
"Yes!"
"Yes!"
The sound of a hammer echoed back and forth in Ike's mind, and the promise was torn apart at this moment.
"You're not a traitor, are you?"
"No! It was not, it is not now, and it will not be in the future!"
"Nothing, Ike, you have to trust me, I won't lie to you. ”
The familiar scene unfolded, Ike's heart felt nothing, and he wanted to find a reason to force himself not to see the scene in front of him, but Skarna's own words were undoubtedly a death sentence.
"You still lied to me!" Ike closed his eyes in pain, why should he become a traitor!
What a shameful word!
Ike never confided in Skarna about his buried past, he was once a carefree child, but the devil ruined everything!
He has no great strength, no talent to climb upwards, and in the end he can only wander and wander in the streets and alleys, he walks the dead, and exiles himself. Therefore, he hates and even hates these demons more than ordinary people!
"Oh! willpower is gradually weakening!" Dudek said excitedly, looking at the numbers in the instrument watch, "Arthurs, you succeeded!"
"Did it work so well?there were a series of plans, but I had carefully prepared them for the two of them, well, this desperate look was so exciting!" Arthurs laughed as he glanced at Ike.
"Beyond the threshold, the power of the Hellsovereign is shrinking, and it seems that his power needs to be controlled by others after merging with others!" Dudek's hands quickly moved on the console.
"Let's have a mental shock before chanting!"
Ahh
Ahh
Ripples rippled, passing through the magic crystals that emerged from above the container. Ike's distorted face was covered in cold sweat and his complexion was pale, apparently violently impacted. Without the protection and reduction of the Evil Hell Monarch, this impact would have been devastating! But no matter how painful it was, there would be no heartache that cracked at that moment!
The man who once saw the perfect man, the man who took him out of despair, kicked him into despair with a pair of hands, and gnawed away the last hope inch by inch.
"Goodda Grass, no..." The lichs chanted the magic in the ancient language, and the spiritual power of the sea poured into Ike's mind.
Finally, the last shred of clarity was stripped away, and Ike's eyes lost their brilliance, and what remained in the last scene was Scana's kind face in the room, whether it was irony or tragedy.
Skarna, I don't hate you, but I don't want to forgive you!
