"Avril, we can't afford to delay any longer!" Anthony said in a serious tone. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
"Mukong, now we are in the environment, I believe you also know in your hearts, if you want to go out, you must be together!" Anthony continued, taking the initiative to ask for unity. He said it to Mu Kong, and through observation, he found that Mu Kong was the backbone of the two people.
"He is worthy of being a genius of the Dark Empire!" Mu Kong secretly exclaimed, admiring Anthony's ability to bend and stretch! He was originally waiting for Anthony to give him a step down, but Anthony took the initiative to go down the stairs directly! He would not arrogantly think that Anthony's submission was due to his own strength and strength, which was a kind of bearing and wisdom! Mu Kong couldn't help but raise Anthony a layer in his heart.
"But how can we believe that you won't stab us in the back!" Lan Yueling was very wary, and her impression of Avril and Anthony was so bad that she was home. But she also understands that now under the Great Rift of Death, there are many dangers! They are all injured, and there is no strength that can be exerted, so there is no other way but to cooperate!
"Hmph!" Avril was annoyed, in the Dark Empire, others begged for them! When was it their turn to be questioned by others and put forward conditions?
"We can swear to the Lord of Darkness!" Anthony was serious, his eyes full of devotion when he spoke of the Lord of Darkness.
Mu Kong looked at Lan Yueling suspiciously, he had heard of the beliefs of the other three empires, but he still couldn't discern the integrity of the oath that Anthony had said.
"Yes, their status in the Dark Church is not low, and their belief in the Dark Lord is very firm, since they have made an oath, they will not break it!" Lan Yueling nodded affirmatively to Mu Kong, she may not be able to guarantee others, but the shadow assassins of the Dark Church like this are all brainwashed by the Dark Church since childhood, and the firmness of faith is completely at the level of a madman.
"Okay, you can swear!" Lan Yueling said coldly, not making the slightest concession.
Avril was a little annoyed, if it weren't for the task of the Bone Valley in her heart, she didn't know if she could stand this breath.
At Anthony's signal, the two made an oath: "Swear in the name of the Lord of Darkness......"
..................
Just when Mu Kong, Lan Yueling and Anthony and Avril were arguing. At the bottom of the Great Rift of Death, in the darkness, a pair of green eyes swirled solemnly, as if they smelled the breath of a stranger.
"Goo-goo-goo-goo......"
..................
"Later, you killed Fei Li?" Lan Yueling asked curiously.
"Hmm. Mu Kong replied, very weak and lonely.
"You didn't do anything wrong, he wanted to kill you with revenge but was killed by you, and he also brought it on himself!" Lan Yueling grabbed Mu Kong's arm and comforted.
"But my heart is very conflicted, I used to think that people should believe in beauty, and human nature is more about kindness......" A little self-deprecating, thinking of his former self, Mu Kong suddenly found that his current self seemed to be less and less like what he used to be.
"......" Lan Yueling just grabbed Mu Kong's arm tighter, but she didn't know how to answer, could it be that there are still more good people in this world to Mu Kong? Or is it that human nature is like a beast, the weak eat the strong? But some things can be understood more than just a word, it takes experience!
She didn't know why Mu Kong was saying this to her, but she could feel that Mu Kong's heart was very helpless and confused. She wanted to help him, at least let him know that someone would be on the same side as him.
"Hmph, naïve, that's right! It's just that luck and strength are too bad! This world is a world where people eat people, and the law of survival is the law of survival!"
"......" Mu Kong didn't speak, he didn't know why he suddenly said this to Lan Yueling, maybe he was uncomfortable in his heart and needed someone to talk to! He modified some secrets, and he didn't shy away from Anthony and Avril, he also wanted to hear what these two people from the dark church had to say.
"Don't listen to her! If it's all naked and the weak, then what else do you need to order?" Lan Yueling said.
"My hometown is in a small town on the border of the Dark Empire, and the people there are very nice, they go from sunrise to sunset, and there is no killing or intrigue. They were just happy civilians, and they never wanted to harm others. Anthony spoke in a very flat tone, but Mu Kong could feel a sadness from the bottom of his heart.
"My parents were just ordinary farmers who grew crops to feed the family. But one day, two strong men! They flew in the sky! I can't forget the terrible scene! The flames and the earth roared, meteorites fell from the sky, huge velociraptors! And hideous faces, and endless blood and death. ”
Mu Kong listened to Anthony's words and thought of the beast tide, the scene when Ge Yan first arrived in Moonlight Town. If Xiao Ming's strength is not so strong, but evenly matched! Then after a fight, can Moonlight Town still exist? Where will those figures engraved in his mind be now? He didn't dare to think about it, he looked at Anthony with some sympathy, although it was dark, he still looked at Anthony......
"I survived, I was taken in by the Church, I was gifted, I became the Son! So I could give everything for my faith, for my Lord!" Anthony seemed to sense Mu Kong's gaze, and looked at him in the dark, his tone still cold, as if telling a story that had nothing to do with him.
"Are we too weak?" Mu Kong smiled bitterly, yes! He was too weak to even control his own destiny, so how could he control other people's choices? He didn't know if Anthony meant this, anyway, he understood it this way. He thought about himself again, did he manage too broadly, always asking for trouble?
As Anthony finished speaking, all four of them fell silent, very quiet, except for the sound of running water next to them, everything seemed to fall into a dead silence.
"Goo-goo-goo-goo......"
"What is it?" Mu Kong and Lan Yueling responded to the prestige, their green eyes flashing with light, like a ghost fire in the dark, eerie and terrifying!
"Hu ......" Mu Kong used the life force that had not recovered much, and sent out a burst fireball, and in the flames, they could see what it was!
"It's a toad!" Lan Yueling saw a huge toad, staring at two green eyes, with a disgusting bump of flesh, and crawled towards them.
"What kind of dark creatures are these toads?" Mu Kong looked at Avril and Anthony, they were from the Dark Empire after all, and they had much more information.
"I don't know!" Anthony shook his head solemnly, dark creatures were familiar to their Dark Empire, but this kind of toad-like monster had never been seen before.
"What should I do?" Lan Yueling looked at Mu Kong, and there was still an instinctive rejection in her heart towards this disgusting-looking monster.
"Looks like they're taking us as prey!" said Anthony, looking at the swarm of toads emerging from the stream and pulling out his dagger.
"Try it, how about it!" Mu Kong also took out the magic iron sword, and after a period of recovery, although the qi strength could not be used, the strength of the body could already be used for a few points.
"Poof......" The Demon Iron Sword easily killed a toad without the slightest hindrance! But Mu Kong's heart was sudden, he sensed that there was some danger attacking him, if he had placed it before, he could easily dodge, but now he could only fall to the ground violently.
"Sneer......" With the light of the fire, Mu Kong saw a slimy thing flying in front of his eyes and falling to the ground, and in an instant the ground seemed to have encountered sulfuric acid, and it was corroded and snorted.
"Be careful! Although these toads have weak defenses, what they spit out is very corrosive!" Mu Kong reminded.
"Hoo ......"
"What is this?" Lan Yueling quickly picked Mu Kong up and stuffed a magic scroll into Mu Kong's hand, only to find that these toads spit out a burst of mist.
"Let's go!" Anthony and Avril clearly saw that they couldn't fight these toads with their current strength, and chose to run away without hesitation.
"Mukong, release the scroll quickly!" Lan Yueling was anxious as she watched Anthony and Avril flee first regardless of it.
"Water Curtain Tianhua!" Mu Kong released the magic scroll, blocked behind him, and pulled Lan Yueling to run. He has no complaints about Anthony and Avril's approach, and the other party really doesn't need to care about his life and death, right?
"Sneer......" After coming into contact with the green mist, the water curtain Tianhua turned green little by little, and then was sucked in by a group of toads.
"Goo-goo-goo-goo...... Mu Kong's mental power felt numb after sensing the scene behind him, and when he picked up Lan Yueling, he instantly sped up, because he found that the toad behind him had actually accelerated!
"Mu Kong, what are you?" Lan Yueling hadn't reacted yet, feeling the collision of her flesh, and she could vaguely smell the smell of Mu Kong's body, and her face was flushed with shame.
"They're catching up, don't move!" Mu Kong firmly locked Lan Yueling's waist, and his spiritual power was released in the rear, and he didn't dare to relax at all!
"Ah...... Huh?" Lan Yueling saw a pair of green eyes behind her who were quickly catching up, and when she thought of the disgusting appearance of those toads, the charm in her heart suddenly disappeared.
"What should I do? It's not a way to go on like this!" Mu Kong felt the toad chasing after him, and he was anxious!
............
On the other side, Anthony and Avril are also in crisis, and the speed of the toad is getting faster and faster, and it looks like it is about to catch up with them.
"Anthony, is it okay to sneak through the shadows?" Avril felt the toads getting closer and closer behind her, as if she smelled death!
"I can only try!" Anthony also has no other way, they have no magic support, their physical strength is much worse than that of a body refining warrior like Mu Kong, and if they continue to run like this, there is absolutely only one way to die!
"Goo-goo-goo-goo......"
"What's going on? Shadow stealth doesn't work!" Avril was shocked, but the toad behind her was still chasing after her, without the slightest confusion of missing her target!
Anthony was released from the shadow stealth state, and since it was useless, there was no need to waste mana. He turned his head and glanced at Avril through the darkness, a trace of struggle appeared on his originally warm face, followed by a fierce and fierce! In the darkness, Avril did not notice the change in Anthony at all, and was still running away in a panic.
Finally, Anthony gritted his teeth, made up his mind, and with little strength, attacked Avril with a fierce attack. As if to hide his inner turmoil, he red-eyed and yelled, "For the master!"
Avril had no defense, coupled with the fact that she was already seriously injured, and at this moment she was fleeing in a panic, she was caught off guard by Anthony's blow and fell directly to the ground. "No!" she screamed in despair, scrambling to her feet, struggling feebly as she watched the swarm of toads getting closer and closer.
"Avril, I can't die, I still have a mission! For the sake of domination!" Anthony muttered silently in his mind, but the speed of his escape was faster. The toads behind him really stopped catching up, and in Avril's terrible screams, they kept biting, chewing, and "squeaking" and nibbling......
