58. The man in the door
Fisher is a mythical rank, and Jasmine is at least a fourteenth-order whale race although she is not a myth, so although the "Competitive Gate" is a long distance away from the Dragon Court, Fisher didn't take it to heart when he thought about his steps at first.
It only took them a morning or so to reach their final destination, and as Fisher had predicted, they set out early in the morning, and before noon, they could glimpse the lush greenery in the distance from the foot of the Namgyi Mountains.
"Chirp!"
Fisher's geography is average, and he can't fully confirm the exact location of the Victory Gate, but when one or two "zombie birds" fly in the sky from time to time in the same condition as in the morning, he knows that Death and Victory Gate are about nearby.
In fact, those things with the smell of corpses were first discovered by Jasmine next to her, I don't know if it was because of her blessing and whale species, she was quite sensitive to the perception of life, but it also reminded her of what Rafael said last night, which made her invisibly worried.
Fisher said that friend. How could he use such a means that the aura was not quite right, or rather, what Rafael said was true, Fisher's means of saving the dragon court must be very dangerous.
"We're almost there, let's go, Jasmine."
Jasmine, who was following Fisher, nodded subconsciously, but couldn't help but ask him,
"Fisher, are those things the means of the friend you said you were talking about?"
"Well, just treat him as one. Just a special human, he doesn't have any malice. ”
"That's it."
Jasmine walked up quickly to stand side by side with Fisher, and asked about another matter,
"By the way, Fisher, I wanted to ask earlier. If the Demon Dynasty is the lair of those demons, will they find out about our entry? They're very powerful, and we're afraid if they're found out by Barbatos and driven back."
Fisher's pace slowed down a little, and his expression was a little thoughtful, but after a moment of silence, he still shook his head and analyzed,
"It's unlikely that they will know that both Barbatos and Agareth thought they had been released, and that the seal on their bodies had only been temporarily lifted by the pedestal. The man who let them out has deceived them, and unless the man is willing to expose his lie and tell them about it, then they will not be able to find out about our actions for a while, but only temporarily, and we need to hurry. ”
Emhart also stretched out an eye and said to Jasmine,
"He's right, in fact, the Demon Dynasty is not a nest for demons. Not to mention the fact that they lived far away from each other, and in the days when they were free, most of them would not have stayed together in the dynasty. Most of them are not very happy with each other, so as long as you don't enter the place where the two demon gods in the dynasty live, they won't find out that you are here, and there is one exception, except for the residence of Barbatos and Agares, you can't enter the place where a demon god named Sidi lives. ”
"Sidi. Why? ”
Both Fisher and Jasmine looked at Emhart with great curiosity, but they saw that he was about to say something, and finally had to say,
"It's just a rumor that his relationship with Barbatos is extraordinary, you know. Legend has it that Sidi, the demon god, has an indescribable beauty, and both men and women will be seduced by him when they see him and fall madly in love with him. And as a demon, Sidi also loves to make people laugh and enjoy bliss. Even the most majestic king of the Middle Kingdom of mankind at that time fell under his charm, and there was even a situation where the three grandfathers and grandsons competed for him as a companion.
Barbatos, as a demon god, is the opposite, legend has it that he was very decent, and the way to extract his depraved nature was through animals rather than intelligent beings, and almost all the hunters on the continent at that time believed in him and the breeze as his symbol, yearning for freedom and tempered spirit.
As a demon god in the world who seeks bliss, Sidi of course also noticed this upright demon god, so he took a keen interest in him, and tried to seduce him, but never succeeded. In the end, I don't know how long it took, but he himself was attracted to Barbatos, anyway, he hasn't seduced anyone since then, and when he reappears, he will only appear with Barbatos. ”
Fisher was slightly stunned, glanced at Jasmine, and at the same time repeated a personal pronoun in Emhart's words,
"Him?"
"Ah, yes. As you know, the demons are all gendered, and Sidi and Barbatos are both male demons in the traditional sense. But Sidy's guy, after all, men and women eat and are quite good at it, and I can't say too much. But it's anyway."
Jasmine's little face flushed away for a moment, and Fisher rubbed his temples and hurried to stop Emhart, saying that he didn't want to hear the love story of the two same-sex demons anymore, as long as he knew that he couldn't go to the place where they lived.
They should concentrate on entering the Demon Dynasty now.
In fact, in Fisher's opinion, Helaire and the two demons are not strictly in the same camp, and if she had to make a distinction, she would probably only use them to destroy the opportunity opened by the prophecy of the end of the world (Rafael), rather than really want to let the demons out.
And when the two demon gods knew that no matter how much they listened to Helaire, they would not be able to regain their freedom, they would automatically be stripped from Fisher's "enemy status", and they were now hiding in the human army, fighting a fourteenth-order dragon race for four and a half years, all for freedom, and once the goal of freedom failed, they would in turn thwart Helaire's plans.
The two eighteenth-order demon gods, I'm afraid that even Helaire will be troublesome to deal with, and more importantly, she has hidden the two demon gods in the Nari army for so long before, and once they are exposed at this moment, their previous efforts will be wasted.
Of course, Helaire could have alerted them to the Demon Dynasty for some reason, but in this case, Fisher's purpose for going to the Dynasty would become a fuse, and sooner or later they would find out about Helaire's tricks, and the target would change from Rafael to Fisher himself.
Fisher would rather take the risk of facing the two demons himself, even if he died in the Demon Dynasty, he would not allow the two demons to be driven by Helaire to destroy the Dragon Court and kill Rafael.
Heller had said that she would not do anything to Rafael herself, and it was unclear whether she was worried about the impact of the Prophecy of Destruction or because of Fisher, but in short, Fisher could only assume that she would abide by the agreement.
Now, both Hellaire and Fisher need time, Hellaire needs to maintain the loyalty of the two demon gods until the time comes to kill Rafael, and Fisher needs time to find the throne and seal the two demon gods back to the dynasty.
Therefore, Hellaire probably won't directly tell the truth about the two demon gods, but he won't sit idly by and watch Fisher enter the dynasty to snatch the throne.
Then Fisher could only take one step at a time to see what the bad angel was going to do.
Across the Namggyi Mountains, at the northern end of the Namgyi Mountains, along a clear river that runs through the jungle, as the corpses of birds and finches on the ground increase, the surrounding environment becomes more and more primitive and remote, I don't know how long it has been that no other intelligent beings have visited this place for a long time.
"Here you are?"
Not far ahead, Fisher saw Death Qing Holland, who was hunched over a tree that had been cut off by the waist, and when he heard the movement behind him, he "clicked" his head a little, and glanced at the two people who came behind him like a walking corpse, and said hello by the way.
Of course, he didn't seem to expect Jasmine to come, or that the corpse birds didn't have the effect of transmitting the message completely and clearly, but he didn't care, just turned his head to look ahead, and said to Fisher,
"Think of a way, Fisher, I've been studying here all morning and still don't know how to get down, or is this not a good place at all, am I misremembering and in the wrong place?"
Around where Death had sit, the corpses of various birds were densely piled up, and the corpses stretched all the way to a cave under the greenery of the mountain in front of them.
The cave was quite large and deep, and it was so dark that even if you looked into it in the middle of the day, you could not see the specific outline, and you could only vaguely see that the cave had a certain slope, quite steep and straight into the ground.
Jasmine didn't like the strange human aura in front of her, and it wasn't because she didn't like it if she had to explain it, but it was more like the sense of disillusionment on his body that made him dislike it.
So, she didn't communicate with him in any way, just said hello and stood by Fisher's side, far away from him.
Fisher glanced up at the cave hidden in the mountains, and soon found that there were many symbols engraved next to the cave that had been weathered and worn so that they could not be seen clearly, but by impression, Fisher still nodded and said firmly,
"This is indeed the entrance to the dynasty, and it should be the gate of victory. I've seen these sigils next to the cave on another demon portal in Nari, there are seventy-two of them, and there is only one part of it, and it should only be the mark of the demon god who lives behind this door. ”
In the morning I tried to get my undead creature to look through the cavern, but it didn't take long for me to get out of control and disappear completely. And glowing things quickly fail inside, as is the case with oil lamps, torches, and magic. I still don't know what it's made of, but this cave has always given me a dangerous feeling, are you sure you want to go in from here? ”
Fisher thought for a moment, looked back at Death, and said,
"We're very tight on time, let's go, I'll go to the front, Jasmine will go to the middle, and you'll be at the back of the palace."
Death shrugged his shoulders in agreement, he won't die anyway, he's just afraid that he won't find the right entrance,
"I'll go to the front, even if something happens, I can give you a warning in advance, and you can take care of the two of us in the end, your strength is the strongest, so it's safer."
Fisher glanced back at Jasmine, and after seeing her nodding in agreement, he and Death Qing took the lead in walking to the door of the cave, but saw him hook his hand, and the corpses of the birds and finches that fell to the ground behind him struggled to get up and flew towards this side.
"Let's go."
Jasmine behind him covered her neck and quietly followed behind Fisher, but Fisher glanced at the birds and asked as she entered the cave with Death,
"How far have you read the manual?"
"I read the beginning, I'd love to share it with you if I could, but Destiny told me not to."
"Because it will cause opposition and rejection between us?"
"It's very clever that before my manuals are owned by you, the manuals will subconsciously reject the owners from leaking and sharing knowledge, which is why that knowledge cannot be recorded by ordinary means. And trust me, even if you find the right means, you won't be able to write it down, and if you do so, the manual you have will be a blank slate. ”
In Death's explanation, Jasmine and Fisher quickly stepped into the deep darkness in turn.
Emhart, who was in his arms, shrank his head back into his arms in fear, for fear that something terrible would come out of him.
Fisher rubbed the wall with his hand, and the magic circuit on his body instantly lit up, and in the darkness instantly gave birth to a dazzling light.
But in an instant, the light was swallowed up by the darkness next to it, and the magic circuit was uncontrollably closed, and when Fisher tried to do so again, he couldn't summon the magic circuit anyway.
The darkness here really eats up the light
But fortunately, their formation was reasonable, and there was a flock of immortal birds that seemed to be noisy but had been reporting his existence, and nothing had happened along the way for a long time.
The cavern didn't know how deep it was, and Fisher felt like they had been walking for at least an hour, or even longer, as if they had been moving deeper beneath the surface, but they seemed to have been standing still.
"Boom!"
The entrance behind him was completely invisible, and even from Fisher's mythical gaze, it was only dark, but then, in front of him, the dull sound of a bird colliding with something suddenly took over Fisher's ears, and there was a sound in the cave that seemed to pierce the darkness.
He quickly turned his head to look, only to find that the cave in front of him had more than doubled in size again, and had become an extremely wide space like an underground square.
And in the darkness at the front, the voice of Death Qing slowly came,
"Ahead, there seems to be a door."
"It's not like, it's really a door."
Fisher and Jasmine both saw far better in the darkness than Death, and the two of them looked ahead at the same time, and they easily saw the glowing door in the darkness.
It was a huge door about thirty meters high, bright silver throughout, and the surface was extremely smooth, and Fisher didn't know if it was the material itself or if it was covered with frost due to the cold, but judging by the current temperature, the answer was probably the former.
Death Qing lowered all the undead birds around him back to the ground to quiet down again, while the three of them approached the huge "frost door" little by little, and in the gloomy darkness, the fluorescence emitted by the door became the only source of light, helping them to see the structure on it clearly.
Above the door, its name is written in the words of ancient humans and the chaotic words of demons.
"We've arrived at the door."
But the question is, how do we get in?"
Death Qing asked with a glance at the door in front of him, which was so heavy and tightly closed.
Fisher was silent for a moment, then stretched out his hand and placed it on the door with a little chill, in the darkness, his body structure changed little by little, turning into a more suitable form for power, and then he began to use all his strength to try to push the door in front of him open, but to no avail.
"No, you can't open it with brute force."
He muttered, and little by little, the state of his body changed back to his human appearance, and informed the two people around him of his conclusion.
The strength of this competitive door was beyond his imagination, at least it was not something that ordinary mythical ranks could open with brute force, and he even suspected that he might have to come here to open the door if Jasmine's mother, Xuanshen, came here herself.
As for the rocks next to the door, the door can't be opened, knocking off the stones next to it can also bypass the door, and breaking some stones should be easy for Fisher now.
But just as he was about to do so, he suddenly found that neither Death Qing nor Jasmine beside him had answered what he said, and even the flock of immortal birds that had fallen on the ground suddenly fell silent, as if they had suddenly evaporated.
"Jasmine?"
"They. It seems to be gone! ”
Emhart, who was in his arms, obviously noticed this strange scene, and hurriedly shrunk deeper into Fisher's arms with a tremble, and said so.
Fisher frowned as well, and turned his head to look at the endless darkness around him, only to see no figure.
"Buzz"
They didn't know where they went, but in the next second, the frost-like surface of the huge door in front of Fisher began to swell slightly, slowly eliminating the unclear layer of "frost" on its surface, making the door instantly as transparent as a mirror and as clear as glass
And inside the door, there was also a faint shadow about the height of Fisher, as if standing on the other side of the door, slowly approaching the door.
“.”
Fisher, holding Emhart in his arms, took a wary step back, staring closely at the figure in the doorway as it drew closer and closer until it was fully revealed.
But when he saw the figure, Fisher was directly dumbfounded and stunned in place.
But in the doorway, the figure was about the same height as him, but the figure was slightly more slender than him.
And the so-called "slightly slender" is actually far from his body shape, which can be said to be a world of difference.
The figure was wearing a dragon court costume of the same color as his, except that it was a man, while the figure was wearing a neutral close-fitting tunic and trousers, leaving enough room in the reserved space to highlight its graceful curves.
And the appearance of the figure also has the same characteristics as Fisher, black hair and black eyes, three-dimensional facial features, but her long hair is fluttering, red lips are dotted, and Fisher's current short hair and a little bit of stubble are contrasted, the figure's skin is so delicate and watery, it looks both heroic and a little aura.
At this point, Fisher gradually began to realize that the appearance of the woman in the door was probably eight or nine points similar to himself, or rather, the figure was exactly the same except for the difference in gender from Fisher!
The woman's expression was grim, as if she had just come to this door, and was exploring the secret of this "competitive gate", only to find other suspicious figures "hidden" in the door
And she also tacitly reacted with Fisher here, and she looked at Fisher outside the door and was slightly stunned, revealing unprecedented vigilance.
She also covered her chest and took a step back, covering the obvious softness of the shape of her chest. This made Fisher also stunned and inevitably touched his chest muscles, trying to make sure that nothing was growing there that shouldn't be there, but only touched Emhart's square body.
Feeling Fisher's touch, Emhart in his arms hurriedly whispered and asked,
"What's wrong, what's wrong, why did you suddenly stop talking, Fisher?"
Of course, he was very scared, and thought that he had touched something as dirty as "Baimon", and he was too frightened to look up and come out.
But after thinking about it, I feel that the atmosphere is not quite right.
For example, it stands to reason that if Baimon had come, then she would probably have to say something sassy to Fisher, and now she is so quiet?
Something is wrong, something is wrong
But if it weren't for Bymun, would there be anything else terrible in this world?
Emhardt thought so, and suddenly there was almost infinite courage in his heart.
So, he quickly struggled to poke his head out of Fisher's arms and took a look at the situation outside.
"It's."
He poked out the book cover and soon found the "female version of Fisher" in the door, but before he could open his mouth wide to express his amazement, the next second, that is, after he poked his head out, he saw that the raised softness on the chest of the "female Fisher" suddenly trembled, and then suddenly a wisdom book with a pink book cover was also drilled out.
I saw that on the pink book, there were some long and curled black eyelashes on the single eye of a red phoenix, and the small mouth under the single eye was also slightly open ladylikely, looking also full of surprise.
Emhart stared blankly at the situation inside the door, so he inevitably opened his mouth and muttered,
"Your mother."
