Chapter 20: A Terrible Future

In the days following the abrupt cessation of the fighting, there was also a sense that peace was coming without a sense of reality.

But the ease and stability are as intoxicating as the scent of flowers, and slowly, everyone accepts that the war is over for the time being.

In the Demon King Capital, Cedar and the others finally had the holiday they had always dreamed of. Cedar and Zhaohua are ready to return to their original world to meet their families again, and Alicia is ready to return to the thunder and lightning capital of Beiyang Cape after a seven-year hiatus on a transstormy flight.

"Okay, then just wait for Commander Ruan to come and go back with us......" Cedar's face was full of excitement.

Zhaohua didn't seem too excited, he smiled faintly, and then asked Alicia suspiciously: "Ellie, is it really okay to fly through the stormy ocean?"

"La NiΓ±a is gone, and with today's magic technology, it's no problem to fight against natural storms," Ellie was rather unconcerned, "I'll be back soon after I go back to visit my father, mother, and brother." It would be much easier if we could restore the portal connection between West Continent and Central Continent......"

"We'll be back soon, and I heard that the formal training for us from the Heavenly Punisher side will start soon," Cedar clenched his fists, "I want to continue to grow stronger, and when the time comes, I will become the most powerful assistant by Mr. He's side!"

"Mr. He is now in a meeting with the other four sages in Future City, and Mr. Jean will provide us with the best mentors in each department, including Mr. He's best friend. Atayal, who was leisurely drinking tea on the side, said.

"Mr. He's best friend is ......" Cedar came to be interested.

"Anyway, it's not the head of the headquarters, I heard it that day, and he called the head of the 'wise and powerful omnipotent' to approve it. Harden chimes in as he eats a small snack and thinks it's funny.

"That Mr. He, who is particularly gentle with everyone who smiles at everyone, has the most powerful general minister in the rumors been reprimanded?" Ivan's eyes widened.

"It's true, Mr. He is gentle with everyone, only he is not right with the head of the headquarters. A clear, metallic voice came from outside the door.

Harden's face changed slightly, and he froze as soon as he raised his eyes: "Sister......"

"Forgive me for not contacting you, Harden," the heroine of the Blue World Headquarters, "The Golden Wifard" Maryse Heather smiled wryly, "I'm still alive......"

grabbed Harden, who wanted to escape from the road, Selina comforted softly: "I finally saw my sister, how can I escape...... I want to see my loved ones too......"

Knowing that Selena was missing her mother and brother, Harden hesitated and didn't say anything.

"Can I sit down?" Maise's voice sounded behind him, finally making him turn his head.

"Maris, this kid wants to ask if you hate him, he's always thought he hurt you. Dumont spoke first.

"Sometimes luck is really hard to say, Maryse and me, you and little Harden, now it seems that this is the best!" Marys's contract monster also laughed in response, "Brother, how can your sister hate you, she is super brother-in-control!

"Danton is such a spirited guy, we will work more closely together in the future, please advise me," Maryse smiled brightly, and then opened her arms to Harden, "I am relieved to see you so energetic, worthy of my precious brother...... I'm sorry for running away to the Blue World, I'll come back to take care of you more in the future, Harden. ”

Ignoring Cedar's gaze, Harden slowly hugged his sister with a slight stiffness and didn't speak.

"We'll ......," Cedar smiled, trying to pull Zhaohua out of the arena.

"What are you doing? Harden quickly let go of his embrace and sat down on the couch with his sister.

"I'm sorry, this defeat in the battle to annihilate the Empress is indeed the fault of our Blue World Headquarters, I thought that I had contained Xingjun well, but I didn't expect it to ......" Maryse's eyes showed helplessness, "I wasn't at the scene, so I don't know the specific situation, but seriously, it's really the first time we've seen Xingjun really go berserk...... We are so proud......"

"It's okay, we're going to get stronger, aren't we? We're going to work better together," Cedar said sincerely, "there's going to be a way." ”

"Yes, and the head of the headquarters is also quite motivated, he is such a proud man, he will never let Xingjun go next time. Maryse laughed too.

"However, there are rumors of discord between Mr. He and the head of the headquarters...... Is it true?" Harden asked her.

"Ah, that ......," Maryse smiled bitterly, "I heard that they have been competing with each other since the beginning of the Heavenly Punisher, but as far as I can see, their relationship is also good, and the head of the headquarters is not polite to anyone, but is quite tolerant of Mr. He...... It should be said that it is a good competitor, and it is also a friend who is noisy. ”

"In this way, there shouldn't be too much internal disagreement among the Heavenly Punisher, but we are still a little worried, because in the past, when we were in the former ghost, Wu Anya often said that there was a big crisis in the Heavenly Punisher. Ivan was relieved.

"There may be small frictions, but big crises or something......" Maryse smiled in annoyance, and then replaced it with a smile as bright as sunshine, "By the way, let me tell you an interesting story about the Heavenly Punisher......"

"You haven't had a meeting yet, have you? The beautiful, noble, and mysterious head of the original world hasn't arrived yet?" In the dimly lit room, Jean was talking to He Yanfang on the phone.

"Evelyn hasn't been on time for four hundred years. He Yanfang's voice was still so flat.

"The recruitment of new recruits for the five departments should be over, and the training of newcomers is about to begin, right?" Jean asked him, "Our children here are undoubtedly the highest overall potential, and they will definitely pay attention to it, right? The children are so naΓ―ve, we can't let them go to the 'Cursed Island' to experience it." ”

"I'll figure it out, that's reassuring. But even if you don't go there, staying in the Demon King will be β€– big trouble. ”

"If you can...... Time is running out, how about letting Stupid Deer and Sikong be instructors?"

"Let's try it. Evelyn is here, I'll go to the meeting first, and I'll talk about it later. He Yanfang ended the call first.

"After staying in the Heavenly Punisher for so long, you four still have such a good relationship," Meng Jin, who sat quietly opposite Jean and had not shown up for a long time, said with a soft smile, "It's good." ”

"Really?" Gene smiled softly, "so let the kids get to know the other two monsters in our foursome......"

His gaze suddenly darkened: "Actually, I wanted Petra to get to know them a long time ago, but he doesn't seem to have much interest in meeting new people. ”

"Let's see him when he wakes up, Mr. Lu and Mr. Sikong are very interesting people," Meng Jin smiled, "I'll wake up soon." ”

"Well," Jean nodded, then looked at the delicate large box that Meng Jin held in his arms, "After taking the 'Living Graveyard' Tregenis, this is the one you found, right?"

"Well, based on the information you provided, we found it. But it's really hidden, and the guards are very tight," Meng Jin opened the box carefully, "We opened it at the time...... It was unexpected......"

The box was full of ice, and it was clear that a seal had been applied to it. Protected in this way is a small flower cat that has not yet reached adulthood.

It was supposed to be a very well-behaved and cute little life, but the remains of a dead life curled up in the ice were just the remains.

Jean looked at the kitten calmly and slowly reached out to take the box.

The mist silk of the goddess curtain slowly unraveled from his cuffs and extended, and the slightest touch made the seal invalid. He then withdrew the goddess curtain, lifted the ice and took out the kitten.

Regardless of the cold, he smiled and gently stroked the kitten's still supple fur: "I finally see you again, I feel curious...... No matter how dark the road ahead is, you have to live well, right, Tono Sheng?"

As if awakened by this call, the dead little flower cat slowly opened its eyes-

Although it is not in the demagogic posture of a beautiful boy, the round pupils like a full moon still do not change. The clear amber color unreservedly reflects Jean's delicate face, which is similar to that of the beautiful boy, beautiful and bewitching.

Meng Jin stared at this strange scene in amazement, not in fear, but in confusion. His thin voice was like silk: "...... This is ......'the dead are different'......"

Ah, that's right, it's the legend that has made the temple fear and taboo for thousands of years, "the dead are different".

Who rejoiced and who was terrified, the ghost boy Tono Sheng, returned.

The Lord of Doom still weaves in the dome, the filaments of doom infused with grudges intertwined and woven into cages, imprisoning souls that yearn for freedom, hoping that they will cry out in despair. But even when they are bound, some of the cursed will still sing their pain into songs with tears. Could it be that at some point, they will also pray sadly that some day will never come again? If so, this must be the one --

The coming, the summer of the dead.
