Chapter 12: Byrne, the Bronze King
“...... Hahaha!"
With this terrifying laughter, a beam of crimson flames suddenly appeared in the dark void in front of Levi, and after a few "Teng", it turned into a sea of magma surging fire, and the heat wave hit people. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info A tall, terrifying figure emerged from this sea of flames, his body shimmering with a scorching metallic sheen.
Byrne, who has the head of a lion and wears bronze armor, slowly emerges from the sea of fire. His eyes were like fire, his lips peeking out of his white fangs, and his bronze lion's mane hunted in the wind.
When all the illusions of the sea of fire around him disappeared, his terrifying form was fully revealed. Levi saw that he was sitting on a bronze throne full of sinister energy, and his body looked almost the size of a building. At this moment, Levi suddenly remembered a movie "King Kong" he had watched before, and he felt that this monster with a lion's head and a human body was as burly and huge as the King Kong gorilla that jumped off a tall building and hit a plane. It's just that this shape, if it is counted as ten, he can give nine points, and basically kill the latter in seconds.
Just as Levi looked up to observe, a strange python with a black gas cover suddenly sprang out from behind Byrne's throne and swam onto Byrne's huge body. It has a full body of scales and armor, and at first glance it is a desolate alien species, not only has a pair of sharp claws on the side of its body, but its terrifying head is more like a dragon's head. Suddenly, the dragon head monster python looked at Levi suddenly, it opened its mouth, revealing a pair of salivating fangs, scarlet snake letter spat out and spit out, and the strange vertical pupils revealed an evil light.
"Ahh But at this moment, he suddenly felt that the lion-headed giant in front of him, covered in bronze armor, was very familiar. Eyes blinked, "You, you, you, you, are you Byrne, the Bronze-Lord of Byrne?"
"Haha......"
Byrne laughed again.
In the midst of this laughter, Levi was horrified to see that flames suddenly rose on both sides of him. As soon as the crimson light faded, tall sheep-faced demons appeared at the same time. They were human with bat-wings, sheep-faced hooves, and their eyes were like red-hot irons, releasing a scorching light. Despite their vicious appearances, the demons were dressed in red silk robes and sat on obsidian chairs, many of which had obsidian low tables in front of them, and things like pen and paper.
On Levi's left and right, there were eight of these strange demons, and they were evenly arranged in two rows. As soon as they appeared, the entire space shone brightly, and the layout in between them was finally revealed.
It wasn't until this moment that Levi saw where he had come.
It is a large hall made of bronze, and its style is simple and ornate. Almost everywhere, there are relief frescoes, not only on the four walls, but also on the floor and the dome overhead. But these strange murals, the content of which is very yellow and violent, it depicts all kinds of scenes of demons raging, fighting, and slaughtering, which makes people shudder after just a few glances. From time to time, there are places in the bronze hall, like the tumbling magma underground, suddenly blazing and glowing, emitting bursts of heat.
The more he saw, the paleer Levi's face became.
The reason is that he has already guessed where he is now. You can't be wrong, the scene in front of you is exactly the same as what those books say, this is definitely Byrne's Bronze Judgment Hall.
He swallowed, and another memory came to his mind.
Levi remembered the words of the adventurers.
The Wasteland Spider kills the Demon Hound and is eaten by the Spotted Lizard. Then, all of a sudden, the lizard turned into a dragonborn behemoth. At the time, he only felt strange and strange about these things, but now that he thinks about it, it is clear that there is some kind of mysterious force at work.
"Human, why don't you speak? Looks like you're afraid of me?" Byrne's lion-eyes glanced at Levi, the lion-faced face full of the old cat's mouse-amusing smile.
Being stared at by him like this, Levi only felt like a transparent person, and any secrets on his body could not be hidden from his gaze.
"Don't worry, I took your soul away this time, not because someone sold your life, but because you signed a soul contract. Byrne, who was sitting on the throne, raised his furry left hand, and when his open claws appeared, a piece of paper made of bronze appeared, and the words on it were not ordinary bull B, and it was actually a fluffing fire, "According to the contents of this contract, I must remind you of its existence now, for it will soon come into effect." ”
"How is it possible, isn't it necessary for both parties to sign such a thing as signing a soul contract?" After a second or two, he scolded, "Could it be that the things written in those books are all nonsense......?
"Humans, though I don't know what book you're talking about. But what you said is indeed true. Signing a soul contract does require both parties to sign with their hearts, but there are many exceptions, and you are now coming across one of them. Byrne pointed to the lower left end of the bronze note, "Look here, it says that the original contractor of this contract is Zhuo, the companion you called with the Light of Divine Enlightenment, the Dragonborn. ”
As he pointed there with his lion's claws, Levi saw a large flame outline suddenly appear in the void in front of the throne, which looked exactly like the one on the bronze paper, which was "burning".
"According to your time, sixty-seven days and nights ago, I put a ray of thought on the body of a demon hound, and by summoning magic, came to your main world. Then control it and search around, finally discovering the dragonborn who has not yet awakened. Then, I find a way to transfer my mind into its body. As this contract says, I have released a part of the power that I have entrusted to me in the contract, and a part of it has been given to your partner. Byrne told it as if telling a bizarre story, "so it can revive its bloodline in an instant and become what it is now." After another thirty-five days and nights, and its intellect had grown to understand my words, I entered into a supplementary clause to the original contract. Basically if it wants to continue to live as a dragonborn, then it must do what I say. Otherwise, I will take back the power I have given it and make it a lizard again. It agreed to my terms and signed the deed. In accordance with the 1731st Statute of the Abyss, this supplementary regulation is also in effect for you as another contractor in communion with the soul......"
