Chapter 18: The Angry Greyhound
"It's something from the ghost realm, it has no soul, and it doesn't do any harm. Only during war is a spell that can execute simple commands, or something called a soul seal, by a mage in the Ghost Realm. This kind of monster comes and goes through the dirt. If you're older, take an elven merchant ship to Muluo in the Scorpion Islands, and then take an explorer's ship to the Heart Erosion Desert north of Longze. From there, you'll see monsters coming out of the sand. Sometimes it will appear at your feet out of thin air, which is annoying. This creature, if left unchecked, will run wild.
In those days, it was common for children to wake up in the middle of the night and find a skeleton monster in the tent, which would make an ugly laugh. That kind of thing makes children afraid of causing adults a headache. Later, some children cried at night, and adults scared the skeleton monster and said that the skeleton monster would come if they cried again, so there was a saying that the skeleton stopped crying in the folk. β
"With such a fun creature, what about wartime? What can skeletons do?"
"In wartime, the skeleton monster itself is indistinguishable from the enemy. As soon as the spell is cast by those mages, they will be organized, disciplined, and consciously lined up to face the challenge;
For example, when they charge, they will suddenly disappear in place, and then quietly appear behind the enemy, unprepared for the attack;
For example, in the siege of a city, they will suddenly appear on the city walls to cooperate with the attack below. Therefore, the skeleton monster is not only a child's nightmare, but also an enemy's nightmare. β
"What should we do if we face an attack from a skeleton monster?"
Regret Mountain was very surprised, turned his head to look at the gray dog, and smiled knowingly: "Scatter them and burn them, or you can control it to find the soul mark to remove it, or find the caster and kill it." β
"What if we use the Sky Breaker?"
"Then they'll be gray in an instant. The shadow of the mountain moved, thinking that this little thing really didn't know what to say.
Gu Gu said proudly: "Then it seems that there is still a way." β
"That's too costly. That time, the three of us in the Divine Realm shot at the same time, and for the whole autumn, there were only three hundred Sky Splitting Flames, and those three hundred Sky Splitting Flames brought us a Xuantian City, which only brought a crushing victory to the Chengtian Alliance. The so-called crushing victory is because in that war, they lost more than half of it, and the ghost clan lost only thirty percent. However, that time the ghost clan was really afraid of this kind of group attack weapon. It's as if it's just made for them. β
"What if there wasn't Skybreaker?"
"Defeat. β
"Grandpa Regret Mountain, I want to learn to be a Sky Breaker. β
"Then first you have to become a talisman master. Have you figured it out?"
"You've figured it out!"
Back then, when your mother came to me, the first thing she taught you was that you were not allowed to enter the Talisman Dao. β
"Why?" said Drum in surprise.
"If you want to enter the talisman, you must first enter the demon, the strength of the demon body has attracted worldwide attention, if the elven clan can accommodate the demon cultivators, how can Bo Qiuqiu abandon the clan? He is really disappointed. But, let me ask you, do you want to fall into the devil?"
"Will you die?"
"Are you afraid of death?"
"I'm afraidβ"
"What an honest kid. It has nothing to do with life and death, it has to do with the state of mind, and if you see through life and death, what about those worldly prejudices? Let me ask again, do you want to do it?"
"I've thought about it. β
"Okay, it's time for this incognito Bochuchu to be born. He hadn't come to see me once in all these years. Maybe he doesn't know my life or death. You go to the patriarch and ask him to take you to find Boqiuqiu. Then, you tell him, I'm alive!"
The greyhound, who had been silent, suddenly said, "I don't agree!"
"Why?" asked the mountain and the drummer.
"He can enter the rune path or enter the demon path, Bo Bai is a rare old immortal elf, an obsessive researcher, a crazy practitioner, and a rune master, but he is indeed not a good teacher. Besides, I'm his master now!"
"But Qing Yu and I have confessed, I can represent her to lead this child into the Dao!"
"But when she came to this continent, the first person she saw was me!"
"You're not a human! You're a dog!"
The greyhound was furious, he forgot his weak body, and was only carried by the angry but cheerful and aggressive soul, and was about to rush towards the wall.
Then, he stopped, looked at the small figure in front of him, and quieted down with some shame.
He knew that the irritable him was the real him, but this fragile shell was like a shackle to his soul, making him compromise, forbearance, and helplessness to reality.
Huan Ran said angrily: "I think back then, why did I ever be so helpless about things outside my body? The past is like smoke, how can I be happy today? It's really like this name, Huan Huanran, just make a look." It's not as good as my title of forgetting worries. Although he is sleepy, he is also happy. Perhaps, it's really good to forget your worries!"
"When I see you angry, my heart rejoices without reason. Regret Shan didn't anger him, but thought of Qing Yu's words, and felt that it was appropriate to use it to fan the flames on Huan Ran at this moment.
Huan Ran turned around, looked at the high sky outside the door, and sighed: "Yes, how ironic this is for me at present!
Since when did the powerful Xuantian Clan start to care about other people's opinions?
Although our powerful bodies cannot compete with the demons, we are also invincible;
Our powerful souls, though no more powerful than the elves, have never shown weakness;
Our powerful bloodline is also the most powerful in the world, who is competing?
But it was my Xuantian clan that was forgotten by the world in that turbulent era.
The Terrans say we're in a hurry, the elves say we're in a hurry, and even the mighty dragons say we're just fighting.
Even so, what can these races do?
But our own people, those scum of the Qingxuan Palace who don't know what to put in their heads, actually betrayed us.
We've been disgusted by our own people, where is the pride of those bastards?"
I looked at a leaf floating from nowhere in front of me and stayed for a long time.
Then he said, "Are we going to betray our pride?"
After thinking for a while, he shook his head again and said to himself, "Look at this shell, I regard it as humiliation, but how ridiculous is this thought? Where is my pride? Look at your wandering soul, still silently clinging to the survival of this forgotten race;"
The greyhound suddenly got up again, circled around the drum and shouted, "Look at this child again, these children are our hope." We should only believe what we see, what we think, what we expect, and what is this meaningless shell?
The greyhound was agitated, his face contorted, and he shouted into the void of the sky as if he were enchanted.
The last sentence: You say, the library shook so much that it shook endlessly.
