CHAPTER 6 CHAPTER 40
As Shante continued to explain, Talis and Asa's faces became more and more ugly.
"Rodhart......," Talis said with difficulty. There were signs of stitching on that face, but she still recognized it as the friend of Asa that they had discussed in the middle of the night two days before, the captain of the Paladin's squad who had betrayed them in the royal capital.
A man who was talking and laughing not long ago, young and handsome, so young and handsome that all the queens of a country fell in love with him is now such a monster, or has he been transformed into such a monster alive. That period of ups and downs of feelings and life, she had experienced it from the perspective of a bystander the night before.
And for Asa, it was a companion, a friend, who had accompanied him through that extraordinary life experience. I have personally witnessed his ups and downs, seen his innocence and kindness, appreciated the infinite scenery he once stood in the ring, and his very friendly and good-looking smile......
All of this colorful life has now been transformed into what necromancers call internal organs and organs.
"What? do you know these two people?" Shante only then noticed the reaction of Talis and Asa. "Oh, I guess I can't be a human anymore. According to the names given by Lord Archibald, these two should be called Dread Knights, or Necro Knights. ”
Asa didn't answer, didn't speak, he was afraid that he would spit it out as soon as he opened his mouth. And Ai Yimei began to vomit when she listened to Shante's explanation, and was stunned when she heard Talis tell the identity of this monster, and then vomited in a dark way. After a period of shocking buffering and explanation, Asa also took over control of the two undead from Shante. The controls are not difficult to learn, and even much simpler than controlling zombies and skeletons, both of which maintain good instincts. As long as their minds move, they will carry it out themselves.
He didn't have a choice. The rest of the road is not easy to follow. According to Shante. Although these two necromantic knights are not completely completed, their combat power is already much stronger than before their deaths, which is quite helpful for this underground trip. So even if it's disgusting. He still had to accept these two 'gifts'.
That transformation is irreversible. Asa knew that this method was a hundred times more subtle and difficult than the kind of transformation he had done for the queen in the royal capital. And Shante not only transformed the body, but also controlled the consciousness of both brains that were transformed by necromancy. Now these two people no longer have the ability to think, only the required combat skills and instincts are left, and the difference between them and death is not much. Maybe that's not a bad thing. Anyway, even if he lives, there may not be any good results, whether for himself or for others. Never satisfied, the earthly people are the most dangerous people for everyone.
The crocodile-sized lizard had already eaten half of it, and the two necromantic knights consciously stopped eating, and then stood there stunned, like two sculptures. They are digesting food and converting it into necromantic mana in their bodies. As long as it is meat, it is their food, but Shante said that rotting human flesh is the most suitable for the absorption and transformation of the modified stomach.
The tidal temperature around the river is very bright, and the ground is full of glowing plants. Asa closed his eyes and prepared to sleep. The destination is not far away, so it is better to take a break.
But as soon as he closed his eyes, the face of Rodhart, which had been sutured by repeated craniotomy, appeared in front of him, along with those godless eyes. Should he continue to live like this after this is done, or will he simply let him die truly and completely? Asa hesitated. Death can sometimes be a relief, especially for a situation like Rodhart's.
If you die, you don't know anything, and you don't have ambition anymore. Of course, there are no worries, there are so many unnecessary twists and turns, yes, forget it when you're dead... It seemed to be the after-effects of holding the hilt of the dark star's sword, and gradually fell asleep, thinking about this question, Asa suddenly returned to the consciousness of the boundless death. There was darkness all around, and it was all death. The feeling came out of the deepest part of his body, slowly drowning out all the other senses, and he only felt like he was sinking down... To die, to rot, not to come to your senses again. Rodhart
The smile, the once sassy and heroic, the scenery. Talking and laughing, the trace of self-blame that appeared after betraying him... It all flashed before his eyes, and then finally there was the stitched Mu Ran's face, the muscles trained with necromantic magic, the bones of the magic array, the liver and stomach worth dissecting and learning... All of this was twisted together like a giant battering ram slamming into the chest.
Suddenly woke up and sat up, his stomach twitched, he vomited, vomited all the things he had barely eaten just now, as if it was not enough, he was still vomiting, even the bile vomited together. When he was awake, he could barely suppress it with reason and perseverance, but once he fell asleep, the feeling left by the dark star enveloped Rodhart's affairs and slammed into the depths of his heart. The dark consciousness of death is intertwined with sadness, fear, loss, and despair, magnifying each other to the point that it is impossible to resist. It took a while of retching before he slowly calmed down. Although the stomach was a little lighter, the dull and dark feeling in my heart was still undiminished, full of fear, sadness, and the consciousness of death.
There was a sound of footsteps, and Talis's figure turned out of a passage, and she looked at Asa in shock. "What, you're not feeling well?"
Asa didn't answer, and walked towards the underground river. Talis followed. The river water is cold and biting, and washing your face can really make you feel a lot more sober. Asa knelt by the river and washed, the bitter cold seemed to dissipate some of the discomfort, and he jerked his head into the river. It was only after a while that he lifted his upper body out of the river and gasped heavily.
"It's always looked like you didn't care about anything, and I thought you didn't feel anything. Talis said from the side.
Asa didn't speak, just squinted at her coldly. He's in a bad mood right now. Although the cold river water washed away the dirt on the surface of the body, the chest felt more stuffy and heavier. It was so uncomfortable that he wanted to die, but he didn't want to die. He wants to live, he wants to live.
"Aimei is already asleep. Tali Line said. Because of the angle, she couldn't see Asa's eyes. "Then why don't you go to sleep?" said Asa coldly, his voice muffled and cold.
Talis suddenly said, "I know you're feeling bad. Two days ago, you told his story in the middle of the night. And since leading these two guys, you've barely spoken. You've been looking bad... I just want to say that what happened, no one can undo it. This guy is also to blame. Asa still didn't speak, just gasped. The feeling in my heart seems to be getting more and more depressed.
Talis looked at him and suddenly said, "I'm sorry, I don't know how to comfort people." The fluorescent plants around her make her figure clear and hazy. The female knight's face seemed to be a little embarrassed, like a child who didn't know how to do things, but she was very calm. Leather armor framed her slender figure, and her coiled hair exposed her equally slender neck. At first glance, he looks like a handsome boy. Whether it is the posture, voice, or breath of a boy who is very alive.
But Asa knew that she was by no means a boy, he knew it very well, and that what he knew was now very clear, and he jumped out of the memory with joy and joy. It was the only bit of vitality in the vast dark gloom of his mind right now, and he instinctively wanted to grasp it.
He remembered that when he was immersed in the endless darkness of the Dark Star, it was her voice that cut a little gap and allowed him to struggle out. He now wanted to see the gap between light and life, but not just the sound, but something more real, warmer, more clearly felt, and understood.
"So you and I want to comfort me?" Asa smiled strangely as she looked at her. Excessive depression and gloom oppressed him, and he looked at her and suddenly had a strange thought. Strictly speaking, this is not a kind of Han, it is an instinctive impulse. Talis nodded. "Although you are a nuisance, everyone is more or less a companion, and occasionally you are not like that
Dislike...... What are you doing. She watched Asa walk in front of her, and she was surprised at first, then suddenly a little frightened.
As a knight, she would never feel scared even in the face of zombies, skeletons, vampires and other terrifying monsters, and she really couldn't think of any reason to be afraid of fellow creatures. But now that she saw him, she did feel scared, afraid.
This is not the fear of knights, it is the fear of women. She didn't seem to see or hear anything unusual, but she felt it.
"Aren't you trying to comfort me?" Asa's voice was already trembling. The first thing he realized was that he couldn't control himself in this regard, and he reached out and put his arm around Talis. One hand wrapped around her waist, the other hand reached the back of her neck and kissed her fiercely on the mouth, hungry and thirsty like a man who has not drunk a drop of water in hundreds of years thirsting for a clear spring.
