Chapter 866: Mourning
The bomb that Tong Ji suddenly threw was a bit too big, and the shocked Huai Shi's brain buzzed, and she didn't react after a long time.
Just listening to her playful tone and description, it is not difficult to imagine the scene where a group of insatiable madmen push the whole situation to the edge of the cliff in order to go further.
But knowing so much, and experiencing so much for so long, how can Huai Shi not understand the difficulties and pains.
When a tool man is miserable, it is even more painful to be born a tool man.
In particular, he has a choice. He knew what he was carrying on the back of what he represented, and he chose to bear it, in order not to disappoint those who believed in him.
For yourself and more people to be happy.
In his heart, he felt that this was a meaningful thing.
But how can the existence of a refrigerator, a color TV, a microwave oven and a refrigerator resist their fate?
Born by the Mandate of Heaven, Died by the Mandate of Heaven.
It can only be said that it is pitiful.
A thousand years of life and endless authority do not belong to themselves, and no matter how tyrannical the expression of that side of human nature is, it is difficult to resist the prophecy of the end times.
Everything has an end.
People will die, plants and trees will wither, gods will fall, and even the present world will have a day when life is exhausted and falls into the abyss. The three goddesses of fate, who foresaw all this, had long since turned to dry bones, and the dust was buried in the darkness along with the spider silk they weaved.
Who can't rebel against fate?
Isn't it because of the tool man like the sublimator, the skill of alchemy, and even the miracles of this world that come from this?
But the result is a collective destruction, and all resistance is reduced to nothingness, leaving only the sorrow and roar of the fall to echo in hell......
This is destined to be a tragedy.
Although there are many doubts and questions in it, for a while, a thousand thoughts keep emerging from my mind, and Huai Shi can't even ask.
I can only put this question down and put it aside.
It took a long, long time to calm down.
I began to think about my next strategy again.
With the four points of divinity provided by the temple, the originally stretched funds were suddenly much more abundant, but Huai Shi was not in a hurry to exchange himself for the Yin Soul period.
Five Paige synthesized an Axe of Wrath, on the one hand, because of the lack of essentia and lack of foundation, and on the other hand, because the existence of the incarnation of anger is too large, only five souls can support its structure.
According to Huai Shi's estimates, if you want to condense the incarnation of the Spear of Compassion, you may need about three Yin Soul periods of yourself.
With Huai Shi's combat power of fighting the first order and the third order, the price of the three divinities can be called good and cheap.
But six divinities are still not enough, and another one needs to be accumulated.
Saving up for another round is the ideal option, but the reality may not be so ideal, in case there is a Publius or Garand in the first round, wouldn't it be bad?
Not to mention the two of them, I'm afraid they will be numb when they meet Hedi Huaishi.
It's been three rounds, and with the ability of the former chief of Helios, I don't know how many iterations of the deviant spirits under his command have already been. Anger incarnation may not be able to do it.
Moreover, even if the destructive power of the incarnation of anger is beyond his expectations, and even more exaggerated than he imagined, it is still flawed.
It has only one.
To be exact, there is only one axe, self-discipline to cut people.
Tactics are too monotonous.
This is Helios, and the alchemists who are still alive and kicking are not ordinary goods, they have completely different inheritances and origins, and they bring too many changes, and they will fall into the gutter if they are not careful.
Therefore, this round must first spend divinity to make up for one's own shortcomings.
If you want to stabilize your own situation in the ever-changing battle, you can't rely on a routine that eats all over the world, but you must develop in an all-round way.
In this case, there is very little scope to consider.
Huai Shi flipped through his exchange list, carefully thinking about each item, and began to eliminate them one by one.
Before you know it, time passes.
Just when Huai Shi was dizzy and couldn't help sighing, she suddenly felt something furry jump on her pants and climb up.
It's fish balls.
The mouse's eyes widened, he muttered a few times, and held a small rice ball in his hand.
The air is filled with the aroma of thick soup.
From the workshop behind him, the skeleton called: "Dog, it's time to eat!"
Huai Shi couldn't help but roll her eyes: "It's all said, it's Huai Shi, it's a dog!"
"Okay, okay, you people are really complicated now. ”
The skeleton sat on his own cart and came out with two bottles on his eyebrows: "Guess what? I've got my little three-wheeler! And the wine I brewed!"
Huai Shi was stunned when she heard this, but she didn't expect the skeleton to have this ability.
Also, the contestants had to stay in their own area, and they didn't say that the audience was not allowed to go, of course, they wanted to go wherever they wanted, especially now that Helios was much safer.
Huai Shi smelled the smell and found that most of the pork was stewed tonight, and all kinds of messy things were pouring in the pure white soup.
I don't know if it got the wool from Helios' lab.
But after getting used to seeing hellish food, he didn't care about this as a chef, so he immediately scooped a spoonful and tasted it, the soup was incredibly mellow, and there was a spicy taste and a strong fragrance.
I can't help but move my index finger.
The skeleton happily poured amber liquor into the croissant, handed over a glass, picked up his own cup, and touched it with Huai Shi boldly.
"Cheers!"
After that, he drank it and splashed it all on his skeleton.
Huai Shi was speechless for a while.
It is hard to imagine how the once bold and friendly Grand Master would have gone to the point of cruelty at the expense of everyone if this was the nature of Publius.
But at this point, Huai Shi had already looked at the skeleton and Publius separately, and he didn't want to think too much.
Raise a glass now.
He was stunned for a moment, his eyes widened.
The amber wine is so sweet that you almost swallow your tongue, like dancing honey flowing into your throat, and it makes you feel instantly refreshed.
And as the slightly drunken wine swelled up, he couldn't help but show a relaxed and happy smile.
In an instant, those heavy shadows and solemn battles were left behind him.
Forgetting all his worries, he took the lead in waving his fork.
Eat, eat, eat!
In the light of the candlelight, he laughed and feasted with the skeletons.
Thus began the feast of only two men and a mouse.
So pleasant.
Time seemed to slow down, slowing down, stopping in the firelight.
In the distance, next to the throne of the Suncaster.
Tong Ji's figure quietly emerged.
She leaned on the side of her seat, held her chin, and quietly looked at the happy figure, and smiled silently.
Quietly watching.
.
.
After drinking and eating, Huai Shi had that dream again.
The world in the dream is still barren, the world is bleak, and the birds and animals are silent.
Only the haggard man supported the horse, wandering between the worlds, confiding over and over again, pleading over and over again, and finally, came to Huai Shi again.
Hoarse pleading.
"Please, mourn for him......"
Huai Shi smiled.
No, it's not Huai Shi.
It is the shell where Huai Shi is located, the perspective that Huai Shi glimpses...... The real owner of this dream, smiled.
Looking at the humble appearance of the comer.
Didn't speak.
Just bantering, mocking, indifferent, cruel, chuckling.
.
When Huai Shi woke up from the dream again, the countdown had come to an end again.
The bell rang.
The glow of divinity shone downwards from the sun wheel.
In front of Huaishi, the fog suddenly broke through, and a quadrangular obelisk covered with cuneiform characters slowly emerged and rose, and after thousands of years, the afterglow and favor of the gods still remained.
On the obelisk, on the platform that resembles an inverted pyramid, there is only a high-backed chair, and the old lady on the chair raises her pupils and looks at Huaishi.
The height is faintly beyond the first line of Huai Shi.
Lady Ima, an alchemist from Egypt who is also the priestess of the cat god.
Her expression was serious and dignified, but there was no malice or mockery.
looked solemnly at Huai Shi.
"Mr. Huaishi, I have admired my name for a long time. ”
Ima was the first to speak, "Before I begin, I have a proposal. ”
Huai Shi was stunned when he heard this, and immediately bowed his head: "Please speak." ”
And Yima, looking down at the plot below Huaishi, said bluntly: "I want to get your temple." If you're willing to lose this round to me, I'm willing to compensate for all two of my plots and give you Egypt's unique Alchemy Secrets.
With my signature, you can go to the temple of God Thoth at any time and get it without hindrance. If I make it back alive, His Majesty's temple is your eternal and solid ally.
This is my oath to the gods, and I will never break it. ”
As she spoke, she raised her hand, and the badge of the cat god in her palm flashed away.
Huai Shi couldn't help frowning.
I don't know what she's up to. Especially when Huai Shi looked down and saw that she already had three pieces of land. Apparently a piece was exchanged from someone else.
Among them, there is a temple, which Ima will never take out in exchange. But the remaining two plots are also rare rich lands.
One is a complete workshop above Helios, with a well-preserved interior, a well-cordoned down, and even a production line for weapons. There is another piece, impressively engraved with a huge secret ritual, although I don't know the effect, but I can also feel the majestic coercion faintly.
Even if it cannot provide the value of divinity, it must have its irreplaceable role.
Two pieces for one, Huai Shi has to earn.
But the question is, can the short-term losses be compensated for in the long term?
Huai Shi pondered for a moment and shook his head bluntly.
"IMHO, I don't really want to consider this offer. ”
He said, "Can you tell me why?"
“...... I need divinity. ”
After a brief silence, Imma sighed, "A lot of divinity. ”
She lifted her hand and unbuttoned her heavy sacrificial robes.
The old woman was seventy years old, and there was really nothing to say, but what was even more terrifying was that the skin under her neck had long been replaced by layers of earthy yellow bandages, as if her skin had cracked.
From there, there was a steady stream of black blood oozing out.
Pale beast hair stretched out of it, sticking into strands of dirty gestures that were unbearable to look at.
"Divine aberration?"
Huai Shi was stunned.
