Chapter 2: Temptation
readx;? The old colored lights bloomed with colorful beams, and the spherical lampshade shook restlessly, making a creaking sound as if it might fall at any moment. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
In this small space full of smoke, several dancers who were still in good shape were scratching their heads and making gestures in the stands, casting a wave of ambiguous glances at the guests under the stage. Their appearance was not clear under the heavy makeup and the misty light, except for the two pulsing flesh on their chests and the fat buttocks that were raised high enough to induce the most primitive instincts in the drunkards and make them pull out the silver coins in their pockets.
At night, the bustle in the tavern was as usual and no one cared about what was happening in the arena a few kilometers away, and no one knew that a criminal who had just finished killing someone had crept into the tavern.
Dusty with a filthy face glued to his face with a fake beard made of beast manes, he changed into a leather jacket that looked not ragged, but also like a poor poor peasant.
When such a person walks into the tavern, it does not attract attention, much less the madness of the women and the enthusiasm of the waiters, but it is also the moment of silence that Flowing Dust needs.
A fresh life had just ended in his own hands, and although he had long lost his worries in his heart, he still needed a glass of wine to suppress his shock.
Dusty went to a remote corner on the second floor of the bar and sat down.
"A pound of beef jerky, a tin foil deer heart, two bottles of the strongest vodka. ”
Liuchen grabbed the waiter who walked briskly past him and muttered what he ordered.
The waiter glanced at him, looked him up and down, and replied angrily:
"Hey, drunkard, get your dirty hands away! and...... Our waiters here are full, if you want to eat and drink for nothing, I advise you to change places!"
Liuchen was indifferent to his cynicism, and gently pressed a gold coin in his other hand on the table.
Although the lights in the bar are dim, the sparkle of this Imperial Gold coin is still eye-catching.
After all, in such a poor and remote place, anyone who can carry a dozen silver coins out to spend can already be said to be a local tyrant, let alone such a gold coin worth a hundred silver coins!
The waiter was so surprised that he quickly bent down and picked up the gold coin from the table and looked at it carefully. Then he immediately changed his appearance, and said with a smile on his face:
"Okay, sir, wait a minute, do you need anything else?"
"No! but ...... I don't think you need to tip either!" As Liuchen spoke, his eyes met the waiter's flattering gaze.
The waiter felt a sudden chill all over his body, as if he was being targeted by a hungry beast, and although this sense of crisis was only momentary, it almost caused him to fall the tray in his hand to the ground.
Only then did he realize that the guy who could make such a generous move and dared to blatantly use gold coins in such a place was definitely not a master to be messed with!
"Yes, sir!"
The waiter swallowed, this time without complaining or complaining, and put the gold coin on the tray, just wanting to get away from this gloomy guy quickly.
Liuchen looked indifferently at the crowd around him, and the drunkards screamed and screamed on the humble stage, slapped the dancers' butts excitedly, stuffed a silver coin into their deep ditch that was exposed, and then reached in with his big rough hand and brought out a piece of underwear directly from it, causing even greater cheers.
After a while, the waiter brought up the wine and meat and the remaining silver coins, and Liuchen pushed him three silver coins, although he said so, he still didn't want to cause some unnecessary trouble by offending such a little person.
However, despite the fact that the dust wants to be avoided, some troubles cannot be avoided after all.
For example, the man who suddenly sat across from the dust.
Liuchen was gulping down his food, pouring the liquor into his throat with a clatter, filling his mouth with the spicy sensation that went straight to the Heavenly Spirit Cap, feeling a burst of electric shock.
Everything became wonderful in the hazy drunken eyes, and even the surrounding smoke miasma became like a thick aroma, so that people didn't care how noisy the music and the drinkers were.
The man sitting opposite him came to a large empty cup out of nowhere, poured the dusty wine into the cup without asking, took a sip and said:
"I've grown taller, and I've grown guts!"
Liuchen was shocked, although he didn't hear who this familiar voice was, but the unconcealed magic of the other party made him immediately sense the danger, and even the meat in his mouth that was still chewing couldn't help but stagnate.
Liuchen looked around and found that except for the man sitting across from him, it seemed that the other party had no companions, and he was also alone, and he was indeed talking to himself.
Liuchen swallowed the meat and did not respond, but looked at the other party.
The other party's face was hidden under the cloak of the mantle, and the man slowly lifted the cloak, and a narrow scar on his face ran through his face, which looked a little terrifying under the bar light.
Liuchen recognized him, but he didn't feel any joy of reunion in his heart, the man in front of him, although he was a former comrade-in-arms, had always been the biggest suspect he locked on after the loss of Liuchen's magic book.
This man turned out to be a gale!
It's just that with the later events of the Warsong Legion, the whereabouts of that magic book became more difficult to find, and all the people of the Warsong Legion were wiped out in that warwar, and those survivors were also incognito, hiding in the Black Earth Continent like flowing dust.
Moreover, Flowing Dust also knew very well that even if he really found the survivors, it would be almost impossible to get clues about that magic book through them! Because all the things about Flowing Dust belonged to the secret of the Warsong Legion, and even if this magic book was really stolen, it would easily leak out.
"Why are you still alive?" Although Liuchen recognized the other party, he still remained vigilant even in the face of his former comrades.
"Don't you too!" Blizzard didn't shy away from Dust's gaze, "However, I was really impressed by your performance, it seems that the dark power in you has been completely suppressed by the forces of nature. ”
"You're looking for something to do with me!" Flowing Dust cut straight to the point, interrupting the opening remarks that Tempest might have prepared.
Blast took a sip of the wine in the glass, and a few drops of wine hung from his beard, which was thicker than before, and looked a little sloppy.
"You've killed people who don't matter, and if you really want to avenge your death, I think I can point you in the right direction!" muttered Tempest.
"You may be mistaken, I've been a member of the Warsong Legion for less than a month, and my original intention was only to hunt down demonic beasts to become stronger and take revenge on Ali. However, that incident left the people I liked forever, yes, I want revenge, but I think the two of us are talking about two things, those who died in the Warsong Legion have nothing to do with me, and we don't have any difficult intersections, all I want to do is to let those who kill Avril ...... Pay the price you deserve!"
Dusty spoke slowly, but his heart became agitated by the alcohol, and the long-suppressed hatred and anger surged again, making him want to smash the table in front of him with a punch and destroy the tavern.
Tempest's eyes glanced away, as if admiring the seductive gestures of the dancing girls, but his vicissitudes of voice were clearly out of tune with his actions:
"You're right! People have to be selfish, this is the nature of every human being. I don't like to say things to comfort you, but I think that no matter how you want to take revenge, when you have made up your mind to take revenge to the end, you must clearly understand who the enemy is!"
Before the wind could finish speaking, a sudden angry shout came from the bar.
Liuchen couldn't help but be stunned, his eyes glanced at the door of the bar downstairs, and several guards in imperial uniforms suddenly drank away from the waiters at the door, pushed those bloated drunks, and forced their way in.
Liuchen glared at the wind viciously, and said in a deep voice:
"If you brought these people, then my enemy is you!"
Tempest looked back again, frowned, and said nonchalantly:
"That's right, it's a pity you can't beat me. ”
Liuchen stood up, unabashedly the magic on his body, and the orange wolf pattern on his right arm bloomed with dazzling light, reflecting the narrow bag partition.
"I want to try!"
"Yes, it's progressing fast!, but you should also be well aware that after your magic has been banned, without using the dark powers, you're only trying to die! But I can also tell you honestly that I did bring these people, and you are very clever enough to know that the few defenders in the town at the moment will not even be able to stop the monsters and slaves who have escaped from the arena, and they do not have the energy to thoroughly investigate such a tavern, after all, they do not believe that this bandit would have the audacity to kill the local defender and celebrate his victory in the tavern in the city!" Tempest continued to drink himself, and tore off a large piece of meat with his bare hands without a knife or fork.
"Why did you do that?" said Flowing Dust glared at the wind, but didn't attack rashly.
Glancing at Flowing Dust, Tempest took a large bite of meat, and did not answer Flowing Dust's question:
"Whew...... These people didn't fully believe my information, only these six people came, and the highest level of the magic pattern was the captain of the white snake pattern!"
Liuchen looked at the six Imperial soldiers holding guns below, these drunks were obviously frightened, and they were all forced to retreat to the corner, and the rough skin on their faces was torn by these Imperial soldiers, and the dancing girls who were still indulging in the carnival just now also squatted on the ground with a loud cry.
Flowing Dust hesitated, reined in his magic, and instead of engaging the other party as the wind suggested, he planned to create some chaos and escape from here.
However, the wind apparently saw through the flow of dust's thoughts, and shook the wine glass and said:
"Of course, you don't have to listen to me talk nonsense to you, but if you're still interested in that magic book, get rid of these guys, and I might consider giving it back to you!"
"The magic book is indeed here!" Liuchen glared angrily.
The wind was silent, and he didn't even bother to look at the dust, so he ate and drank by himself.
Liuchen is helpless, the difference in strength between the two is too big, because Liuchen has traveled all over the world this year, and has also seen a lot of powerful demon warriors, except for those super strong who can only wait and see from afar, but there are few people who can make Liuchen feel such terrifying pressure when facing the wind today.
"Okay, but how can you guarantee that you'll keep your promise?" asked Liuchen.
The wind plucked out the ear plugs, stood up nonchalantly, drank the wine in the cup, and said slowly:
"I can't guarantee it! but ......"
The wind paused, and suddenly leaned against the fence on the second floor, shouting at the six Imperial soldiers who were still searching downstairs:
"Hey, officer, that guy is here, look, it's him! Don't let him run!"
Liuchen was stunned, he didn't expect the wind to use such a despicable method, it was not like what the calm and gloomy captain of the wind in his impression could do.
However, although Liuchen was surprised, there was no way to escape, and after the wind shouted, he had already run down, leaving Liuchen upstairs, and the guys downstairs found Liuchen and rushed upstairs like wolves.
Liuchen didn't want to fight, but with his ability, he didn't have the confidence to escape from the Serpentine powerhouse unharmed.
So, the flowing dust condensed his magic power and slammed his fist into the stairs, and the orange wolf pattern shone brightly.
"Ground Boom!"
No sooner had the three soldiers stepped onto the staircase than the entire staircase collapsed, and an earthy yellow air rushed down, crushing them all to the ground.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, Drift Dust had already jumped out of the skylight of the tavern, and at the same time, it immediately absorbed the surrounding natural forces and activated the static decomposition.
As soon as the static decomposition was activated, Liuchen immediately felt a strong air flow coming straight behind him.
Liuchen looked back and saw that the captain of the squad in the tavern just now had chased after him at an incredible speed, and even in such a decelerating space, the other party's speed was still very fast.
At the same time, the bullets in the opponent's gunfight also whistled out, and these bullets with a narcotic effect slowly pressed towards the flowing dust, although the speed was not fast, but the angle was so tricky that it was difficult for him to dodge.
"Stop! You still want to run with just orange wolf stripes! This time it's really a great achievement!" The captain was so excited that he held a spear and released the magic steam unique to the serpentine powerhouse.
This kind of magic steam is different from the magic steam of the Death Exhaustion Technique, this kind of magic steam will be automatically released as long as the serpentine strong enters the combat state, and according to the different attributes of the combat skills used, different colors will be changed to achieve the effect of increasing the power of combat skills.
At this time, the mana steam on the captain's body was blue, and it was obvious that he was using water-based magic.
"Breaking the Void!"
The captain turns the gun and plunges it into the ground.
In an instant, the ground under the feet of the flowing dust immediately sprayed several bursting water columns, which were so powerful that they directly set up the flowing dust, making it impossible for him to dodge the anesthetic bullets that were about to hit his body.
However, just as the anesthetic bomb was close at hand, Liuchen suddenly raised his hands high, and waves of blazing flames suddenly condensed in the center of his hands from all directions, turning into a huge fireball.
At the same time, the yellow star stripes on his shoulders also bloomed with dazzling brilliance.
"Flame Dance!"
Liuchen screamed, the huge fireball in his hand suddenly burst, and countless sparks suddenly appeared in the air, and they instantly turned into burning red flame bees, roaring wildly, flying the oncoming bullets, and instantly devouring the stunned soldier captain, annihilated in the noisy buzz......
"How could it be a double magic pattern!"
