49. The flaws of the demon god
The coastal defense line of the Dragon Court, now it is the second time that Fisher has come here, the last time was when Ingrid was held hostage by two demon attendants and forced the palace, compared to that time, the border defense line at this moment is more strictly guarded, in order to prevent the people from panicking, they blocked the place where the demons held their rituals before.
But because of Jasmine's early endorsement, Fisher didn't encounter any obstacles and brought Emhardt here.
After inquiring with the guards of the Dragon Court, it was learned that they had arranged Holland in a stone building of a border guard.
The border guard post on the coast is a tower-like building about ten meters high, one is built every few hundred meters, and the defense line is built on the stone tower of the border post as the basic unit. The stone tower wasn't far from where Ingrid had been seen, and when Fisher climbed the tower, he even saw a large scarlet crater on the beach in the distance, which was left over from the failed demonic ritual.
"Sir, the priest will arrange people inside."
"Okay, thanks."
Fisher wore the robe of the prayer tower, wearing a cloak to hide his face, and between the slightly crossed collars on his chest faintly revealed Emhart's one-eyed eyes that looked at the outside world.
After the soldier who led the way turned to leave, Fisher gently clasped the handle of the door, and the moment he slowly pushed it open, an extremely strong pungent smell of wine rushed out of it.
Fisher raised an eyebrow, opened the door to let the smell dissipate, and then walked into the room with his mouth and nose slightly covered.
Facing the door in the room are two windows with good views, and beyond the ocean and sand, the traces of previous demonic rituals can be seen.
In front of the window were two slightly crooked wooden chairs, one of which sat a man with a slumped body but still looking oddly long in shape and limbs. Unlike the heavy black trench coat he wore in the north, he was wearing a khaki autumn jacket and a light brown gentleman's hat on his head, but because of the strong smell of alcohol, the hat was crooked and looked quite funny.
He clutched a steel flask in his left hand, and as Fisher entered, he was looking out the window at the traces of the demonic ritual as he brought it to his lips to drink, but the sound of the door opening behind him interrupted his movements.
The next moment, he leaned straight back on the wooden chair, which was crushed by his slender body and fell back uncontrollably.
And by the curvature of the pouring, his head also tilted back a little, revealing an extremely pale face, thick dark circles, and a slight drunken blush on his cheeks.
It was none other than the Death Secretary of the Society of Creation, Holland.
He didn't have much energy, but he still put on a shriveled smile at Fisher,
"Hey, long time no see, Mr. Fisher."
Fisher glanced at him, then slowly walked up to him, pulled another empty chair out of the distance, and opened the closed window to allow air to circulate, he was about to be smoky to death by the smell of the room.
"I didn't expect you to come so quickly."
"When I received your news, I rushed over as soon as possible, and I was not in the Western Continent at that time, but not far from the Southern Continent, so it was almost so much time to rush over."
Fisher glanced at him, four and a half years later, he was still the same as when he was in the North, he looked half-dead, obviously not in a normal mental state, but the opposite was the strange feeling of losing his fate with death in his body.
He took another sip of wine, which made Fisher ask,
"You're not in the Western Continent, so how did your landlord contact you?"
"Landlord?"
Huo Lan was slightly stunned, and then seemed to know something, so he smiled, nodded and said,
"The landlord has her own way of contacting me to talk about the phone call, about the information you told me, didn't lie to me?"
"I do have a clue about your death, I wonder if you have heard of the name [Demon Dynasty]?"
Holland raised his hand and groped the stubble on his face that had not been sorted out for a long time, and mobilized his alcohol-contaminated brain with all his strength, and after thinking for a while, he suddenly smiled slightly, took a sip of wine and said,
"Actually, I also know that you didn't lie to me, because I already told Destiny about this before I came."
“.”
Fisher's words paused for a moment, interrupted by his words.
In fact, Fisher didn't want this to go through the realm of fate, and it wasn't entirely because of his previous distrust of the Creation's colored glasses.
Previously, Philoon and Earwind had caused him to have a very poor impression of completing the manual and the Creation Society, but after going back in time and learning about the chaos and those who were transferred, this feeling faded a little.
He gradually realized that Asuka Karasawa of the Creation Society and those who transferred were actually not at fault, and if he really wanted to blame anything, he could only blame the chaos, the chaotic knowledge in their minds, and that was the source of the disaster.
But at this moment, he didn't want Death Qing to greet Destiny Qing completely because what he promised Destiny Qing had not yet been completed.
He is still unsure of the whereabouts of Asuka Karazawa, and can only guess that her level is very high based on the source magic book left by the mother goddess, and she has a good relationship with Renee's predecessor, the mother goddess.
Maybe those Chaos Species will know a little clue, and it just so happens that he plans to ask the secret of magic advancement through Chaos Seed in the future.
But now, now that Death Secretary has told Destiny Secretary the news, and he is still here now, he can already show part of her attitude.
Fisher pondered for a moment, then looked at Death and asked,
What does she think?"
"What do you think? Is it the battle of the Red Dragon Court, or the probability of my death? ”
"Both."
"Well, in fact, the two are not contradictory either. Fate Qing didn't expect the Demon Dynasty to be related to my death, but the last time you told me in the North that the death rune was made by the demon god Agareth, I probably found a little bit of a rush. But fate Qing she knows very little about the Demon Dynasty, generally speaking, for an old immortal like her, who is proficient in the knowledge of fate chaos, there are few secrets in the world about her, and it is not a coincidence that the Demon Dynasty is one. ”
Death Qing pursed his lips, spread his hands and said,
"That's why she didn't expect Earwind to enter the Demon Dynasty, and she stabbed us in a very big basket. According to her, there is nothing left after the Mythical War, and I still remember their group of 'scourges', thanks to Earwind, so that those demons will travel thousands of miles to hunt her down even if the main body can't leave."
Fisher frowned a little, then seemed to sense something, and said,
"Did Destiny think that the demons were chasing her because Earwind had the confusing knowledge to complete the manual? Like other myths treat the transferred people? ”
"Probably so, I don't know, the old immortal speaks very mysteriously, every sentence is like a puzzle without an answer. When I am with her, my desire for death will become stronger than ever."
"It can't be for that reason."
Fisher shook his head and shared the information he had gotten with him,
"Demons are lovers of chaos, they are not the same as angels and elves, and the laws of a few demigods have no effect on them. They must have had some other reason for hunting Earwind, even if it was because she had a personal vendetta by experimenting with the Demon God, but I was more inclined to think that she had obtained some secret from Agares, and that secret, Agareth didn't want anyone else to know. ”
"Looks like you know a lot about the Demon Dynasty, like you've lived there. Okay, but Earwind has been killed by you, and there's no point in talking about these psychosis with abnormal brains. I mean, Destiny Qing is not too sure about the matter of the Demon Dynasty, she just thinks that she can let me come over and try it, I need a letter from you. ”
Beneath the Demon Dynasty slumbers the body and authority of the goddess of death, Hecrow. Demons were formed because of chaos, and the gods were able to tolerate the existence of demons who believed in chaos because the demon dynasty now sits above the power of death, protecting it. I don't know how your immortality came about, but if there's anything in this world that can make you die, it's probably only the power of death. ”
Hearing this, Huo Lan's eyes lit up slightly, he just wanted to get up, and he looked ready to go, but he suddenly withered halfway through, and sat back in place without energy.
"Hey, I forgot, the Southern Continent is at war right now, according to Destiny Qing's speculation, the ground entrance of the Demon Dynasty is in some places in the north, where there are still several intact Dynasty portals. But now that the Northern Dragon Court is so fierce, Destiny Qing suspects that there is a fierce person like you in it, otherwise it wouldn't even be defeated by the Red Dragon Man and the daughter of the God of Destruction, so how can we go to the Demon Dynasty? ”
There are two eighteenth-order demon gods in the Northern Court, namely Agares and Barbatos. Well, if the situation is any worse, there may be an eighteenth- or nineteenth-rank initiator. That's why I called you over to help you find death, and I need your death patchbook to fight them. ”
"Demon God."
Hearing that there might be three eighteenth-order demon gods as enemies, Huo Lan was still not interested, he was not afraid of how fierce the enemy was, and even hoped that the enemy was very fierce, so fierce that he could kill him alive.
He just felt distressed about how to smoothly enter the demon abyss under the surveillance of the three demon gods.
"This is troublesome, it turns out that there are two or three demon gods on Nali's side, no wonder the Red Dragon Court was beaten to the ground. But the question is, what means did Nari use to make them work honestly. Eighteen ranks. I'm afraid that even ten Nari tied together can't beat a single demon god, right? ”
"Doesn't Destiny know this?"
Should I say it or not, Fisher is really a little skeptical of Destiny's ability now.
It is said that the current Destiny Qing is already the only surviving first-generation transfer person other than Asuka Karasawa, which means that her completion manual has never changed hands, and she herself is a human from outside the world.
I don't know if it's because that Margaret impressed him too much, causing him to subconsciously think that Destiny Qing probably has similar abilities as her, but this state of ignorance really opened Fisher's eyes.
And Death Qing's answer was also very frank, and he quickly replied,
"Ha, of course she doesn't know, but it's not that she can't know, but she doesn't dare to know. She's always been in great shape. Subtle. You should be able to imagine that an old monster like her, who has lived for an unknown amount of time, is very life-saving, and unfortunately, it is dangerous to complete a lot of knowledge and abilities in the manual.
"Once that knowledge is used for so long, I'm really afraid that she will become some unspeakable monster. In fact, in my eyes, she was only a stone's throw away, and I had seen her cut off parts of her brain and body and throw them away, in order to forget the information she had received from fate. Another time, she accidentally cut her brain in the wrong place, and then she couldn't talk or walk for a long time."
It makes sense.
I don't know why, but hearing him explain this, Fisher immediately understood.
It's no wonder that this first generation of transferees can live so long, this method makes Fisher unable to complain.
There was no way, he could only roughly tell Death Qing about the situation of the two demon gods, including that the purpose of their work for Nari was to obtain something related to the opening of the prophecy of the end of the world from Rafael to liberate his fellow demons.
As for the method of entering the Demon Dynasty, Fisher really had a little extra clue.
As he spoke, Fisher slowly pulled out the manual and opened it, taking out a scroll that had been kept in it for a long, long time.
Remembering that when he was in Saint Nari, he used to study Elliog and obtained a map related to the Demon Abyss from her.
He hadn't had a chance to open it all along, but now it seemed that there was a place for it.
It is written in quaint words,
"Succumb to the Abyss of Desire"
But just as he was talking and just took out the scroll, an extremely sharp voice suddenly came from Death Qing's body.
The voice did not resemble a human voice, nor did it correspond to any animal Fisher had ever seen, but it was extremely harsh and disturbing, but the voice suddenly interrupted Fisher's words and asked him,
"Where did your intelligence come from?"
Emhart, who was in his arms, was startled by this voice, and quickly retracted, and Fisher's movements also paused slightly, looking at Death Qing, who also had a stunned expression on his face.
But I saw that on the back of his hand holding the wine jug, I don't know when a huge mouth with a faint golden light grew, almost occupying most of the area on the back of his hand, and the sharp sound just now came from that mouth.
Death Qing was slightly stunned, and then seemed to realize something, and said to the mouth that emitted golden light,
"Old and immortal?"
The mouth opened, and then replied,
"It's me."
It's Destiny.
"Are you eavesdropping on us?"
The mouth didn't reply to Death, but then asked Fisher,
"Where did you get all that information about the two demon gods fleeing from the dynasty?"
"The one who started this."
"Your woman?"
The mouth was as sure as an uncertain prophet, so that Fisher could not continue to speak, so he had to add,
"One of them."
"Either way, she must be lying to you, or she is even lying to those two demon gods."
"What do you mean?"
"It means that those two demon gods didn't escape from the dynasty at all."
The mouth struggled for a moment, and then with a "poof" it came out of the back of Death's hand, hollowing out the entire palm of his hand holding the flask, and the five fingers were stained with blood and the flask fell to the ground in turn.
Death Qing didn't feel any pain at all, he only glanced at the palm that was already empty, and the golden mouth that floated up and wrapped in golden light, and then without saying a word, he put his other hand into his coat and took out a short knife to kill himself.
"Snort"
His head tilted and slumped on the table, but no death came, and the strange thing reappeared in front of Fisher again, his severed hand flying up from the ground one by one, and the blood spurting from his neck slowly retracted into his veins, and soon recovered.
The mouth didn't care about the grotesque phenomenon behind him, but went on to explain to Fisher,
"The seals of the demons were created by the Mother Goddess herself, and this was the only time she used her authority in the mythical wars, and it was this act that completely angered several gods, so much so that they did not hesitate to go to war with them in the spirit realm. But it has to be said that ignoring the risks of using the power of the true gods in the world, everything the Mother God has done has benefited several righteous gods. Because of the war between the mythical species, the demons have also reached an unprecedented level of pollution to the living beings.
"Those who are lucky enough not to participate in the war or who are not affected by the war are targeted by the demons, and the myths and demigods are caught in the whirlpool of war and are too busy to take care of themselves, how can they have time to care about these demons who have never participated in the war. And so, with impunity, they began to extract the depraved nature of living beings, most of whom were humans. The extraction of depraved nature will not only lead living beings to degenerate and self-destruct, but more importantly, this process will breed chaotic pollution, which is the really serious problem.
But at that time, there was no force that could spare their hands to deal with these demons, and in the end, the mother goddess couldn't bear it anymore, and violated the rule that the gods could not directly intervene in the world, and used her authority to lock the demons in the depths of the dynasty. At the same time, the intervention of the authority also caused an unprecedented disaster in the world, and the outer layers and cracks of the world began to be turbulent, so that the first generation of souls thought that they sensed the opportunity to enter the spirit world, but in the end, "
Fisher frowned, as if he understood a little bit of Fate's meaning,
"You're saying that the seal of the Mother Goddess can only be broken by the power of the True God level, and it is impossible for them to be free without the intervention of the True God, right? But I had a face-to-face with one of the demon gods, Barbatos, and his strength was definitely eighteenth-order, which was true. ”
The seal of the Mother Goddess is a seal on the demons as a whole, not on their individual bodies. Now the main bodies of the two demon gods have left the dynasty, but they have not escaped the captivity of the mother god, but someone has created a loophole in what way, making them think that they have escaped the infinite captivity of the mother god. ”
Fisher pondered as he wondered what hell Hellaire was using to get Barbatos and Agareth out.
Helaire is only nineteen ranks, not even a demigod, a remnant angel, how can he break the seal of the mother god?
But in the next moment, Emhart in his arms suddenly moved, and even his mind suddenly burst into an inspiration.
Fisher and Emhart opened their mouths in unison and gave the answer,
"The pedestal!"
Yes, in the North, when the Spirit Pollution was about to descend into the world through the body of the phoenix, a being stole it, so that the Pollution had to descend in the body of Earwind, so that Fisher killed her with the death rune to thwart his arrival, and at the same time allowed himself to be chased by death.
Emhart hadn't been pulled into the dream magic, and when he woke up, he told himself that it was Bymon who had stolen the pedestal, but he was being chased by death and didn't know Heller yet, so he didn't take it to heart, let alone what she was going to do with it.
Now it seems that the usefulness of the pedestal, which is stained with the breath of the true god, is very obvious.
"Pedestal?"
"It's the platform formed by the flesh and blood of the Phoenix clan to pollute the spirit world, and when she was in the north, she took it away."
"The whole family of Phoenix. That's right, even if their entire clan adds up to some spiritual pollution, it is definitely not comparable to the authority of the mother goddess, and the power cannot be equal to the true god, but it is possible to release the two of them. ”
Fisher already knew what Fate Qing meant, and his heartbeat quickened little by little, as if he had caught the flaws of those two seemingly invincible eighteenth-order demon gods.
"In other words, we can enter the Demon Dynasty and take away the pedestal that interfered with the Mother Goddess's seal, and then they will be imprisoned by the Mother Goddess's seal again, right?"
"That's true, but I'm not sure where to enter the dynasty. Moreover, didn't you just say that in addition to the two demon gods who were released, there is also an initiator who has a lot to do with you? Are you sure she won't get in the way? ”
Fisher was silent for a moment, slapped the scroll recording the location of the Demon Dynasty on the table, and then said very decisively,
Even if she wants to stop me, I have to do it."
Emhardt knew who he was talking about, of course, and the thought of the smiling expression on his face made him hide deeper into his clothes, as if he were afraid of the cold.
The great Sir Scholar decided to follow the very brave Monsieur Fisher Benavides in raising the banner of "rebellion against Bemon", and of course he could not be the one who carried the flag.
This guy eats people and doesn't spit out bones, so Fisher can still let her chew twice, otherwise she wouldn't have been eaten and wiped clean by now.
However, he didn't want to believe that Fairmont would be emotionally attached to Fisher, and he believed that Fisher still had value for Beckon, so it was right to hold on for the time being.
The death secretary next to him has been successfully resurrected, and the flesh and blood on his body have returned to their original places little by little. Then he lowered his head and picked up the fallen flask, pouted at them and asked,
"Can you not appear in this way every time, old and immortal. Although you won't die, the feeling of fate being parasitic and stolen is really uncomfortable, etc., where are you talking? ”
Rows of sharp teeth swirled inside the mouth, each with a small hole drilled through the bright red threads.
The silk threads continue to pass through the flesh and blood's mouth, forming complex knots and staggered layers, and their specific meaning is unknown.
Hearing Death's question, all the knots in Destiny's mouth shook, and then she said to Fisher,
"We. . Just finished talking about you, and I was about to ask about the Magic Secretary."
Fisher was slightly stunned, but the next sentence of Destiny Qing had already come out of his mouth faintly,
"I have a hunch that he already has a clue about the Secretary of Magic, right, Mr. Fisher."
"You may have even seen her in person."
Asking for votes, tips, and support is very important to me!
Thank you very much for your support!
