Chapter 6: Two people who are out of touch with the world
The gray city walls look unattainable, the forts placed on the walls are full of intimidation, and human beings in uniform carry searchlights to patrol back and forth, and there are dozens of people from a distance, to say the least.
"Wow, it looks spectacular. Garusis looked at the city wall and sighed, "This wall is at least fifty meters high, right?"
"Indeed...... But how are we supposed to get in?" said Messiah and Galusis prostrate on the ground, observing the distant walls through their vision, "The gates are closed, and the walls are so high...... I can go through the wall, but what about you?"
As a spirit creature, wall piercing is a must-have skill.
Garusis was unpressed: "I can dig a tunnel." ”
"I'll keep an eye on you. The Messiah added.
"You're really suspicious. Garucis pursed his lips disdainfully, "Don't worry, I don't have any intention of exposing myself at this time. ”
[Even if I want to do any small action, I have to avoid you first......]
"I'm not going to let my guard down against you, after all, you're the Demon King Garusis. As the Messiah spoke, his figure fading until he disappeared completely.
"That's a compliment. Gallusis, who could not be incarnate, crawled slowly, reaching the bottom of the city walls and began to dig a pit.
It's not that he didn't take this opportunity to secretly hide the mind of a slime, because Garucis could feel that the Messiah was watching over him all the time.
I used to think that this guy was a bit stubborn, but I didn't expect it to get even worse after death...... No, we have to find a way to cut off the connection between me and him. 】
"Wait, turn about 30 meters to the right of the tunnel and use it as an exit. Just as Galusis was about to dig through the dirt above, the Messiah spoke out of nowhere.
"Give me a reason. ”
"We had a night market right above our heads. The Messiah shut Gallusis with a word.
Following the Messiah's instructions, Gallusis dug about 30 meters to the right, only to dig straight into the sewers.
There is a ladder not far away, and above it is a manhole cover.
"Looks like it doesn't have to be that much trouble, Luck!"
But the Messiah showed his form at this time and pressed Gallusis on the shoulder: "Wait, before leaving, bury the tunnel you dug to eliminate the traces of your infiltration." ”
"Trouble ......," Garucis impatiently buried the tunnel again.
In a seldom-passed alley, a manhole cover was gently removed silently, and then Garusis and the Messiah sprang out.
"Here...... It can't be the slum of your human city, right?"
It's no wonder Garucis had this idea. The bustling night market is just around the corner, but it's so quiet that it seems to divide the city into two different worlds.
"It doesn't look shabby here, it's like a slum?" the Messiah shook his head, as if remembering something, "I think that night market just now seems to be very lively, could it be some festival?"
Finding the Messiah's gaze on him, Galucis decisively turned his face: "Don't look at me, I'm not familiar with your human sayings. ”
"I have a proposal to go to the night market, maybe I can gather some information. "Very far-fetched reason...... Humans are still social creatures after all, and even though they are dead, the Messiah still wants to be close to his former kind.
"I refused, I was already very tired, it would be better to find a place to stay first. But Garousis was clearly not prepared to let the Messiah get his wish, "Gathering intelligence can be done at any time, and it doesn't have to be today, does it?"
The Messiah pointed at Garusis with some anger and shouted, "You are obviously a nocturnal creature, now rest a ghost!"
"Am you mistaken? Just because you can't see light doesn't mean you're a nocturnal creature, I'm a 100% walking creature. ”
Garucis's smile made the Messiah feel suffocated, and he subconsciously summoned the sword of [Light] and put it on Garusis's neck: "You must listen to me this time!"
Garusis was undaunted, and the smile on his face was even brighter.
"Hehe, if you have the ability, you can cut it down, and then you are ready to be trapped here for the rest of your life...... No, this is a human city, and sooner or later my body will be found, and a nameless corpse like mine may be cremated directly...... I wonder if the corpse will survive after the corpse is destroyed?"
"You ......"
That's right, the Messiah couldn't have killed Garusis because he had his own obsessions...... As long as this obsession is not completed, or a way is found to cut off the connection between the two, otherwise the demon king Garusis will never die.
"The guy over there, are you hiding here in the middle of the night trying to do something stealing chickens and dogs~!?" With this somewhat rude voice, a light shone on Garusis and the Messiah.
"The information has come to the door. Glaring at the blinding light, Garucis laughed.
This is a middle-aged male surname about 40 years old, and he looks ordinary, but his rosacea is a little conspicuous. Dressed in the same clothes as those patrolling the city walls, he smelled of alcohol all over his body, and he looked like a guy who received a salary.
Seeing how Garusis and the Messiah were dressed, the drunken guard scratched his head and said, "You guys...... Could it be that this dress is the one that has risen recently...... What are you going to do? yes, it's like cosplay. ”
“...... Kill Pley?" Garusis was very unfamiliar with the term, but there was a little bit of information that he had noticed.
[Could it be that our dress is not mainstream in this era?]
"Hey, you boys who like to detain Pulei, what are you doing here in the middle of the night...... Hiccup!" the other man said while burping.
"Look into my eyes......" Garusis' voice seemed to exude some kind of demonic caste, causing the guard to compliment in a daze.
Scarlet eyes glow in the night. It looks so deep and fascinating that even the soul almost sinks.
"Tell me, what age is it. ”
"June 18, 1233 in the Elamite calendar...... "The guard, whose eyes were glazed, uttered a time that surprised both of them.
The defeat of Galusis and the death of the Messiah occurred on the same day, in 998 AH...... But now the guard had spoken a strange Elamite calendar.
[It seems that we have completely disconnected from this era...... How long have I been asleep?]
