Now that he has agreed to the deal, Yi Chen will naturally not break his promise.

Hotel room.

Thirteen stood silently outside the door.

Strange noises were constantly coming from inside the room, similar to the panting of an old man.

Stephen. When Ossicle touches his ears with his bony fingers, his body will be overly excited and messy, and he needs to stabilize himself through regular exhaust, sounding like an old man panting.

Although the whole person looks extremely obscene, you can also see his fanatical obsession with ears and love from the heart.

This kind of obscenity is limited to the touch of the ear, which Yi Chen doesn't care about at all, after all, he has experienced something more excessive than this in the orphanage before his death.

The two-hour wait was also boring, and Yi Chen tried to chat.

"Mr. Stephen must be a rare sentient knight, right? After all, most of the Dead Plague Knights should be biased towards killing and bringing death to each other, and there should be more knights of the type like Bernard. ”

"That's right, there are very few people like me, but I'm also very good at killing~ Especially against humanoids like you, just send a silent dagger into your body, and death will spread.

This 'silence' is also substituted into it, and often the assassinated individual dies without even feeling it. ”

"Well, I don't deny your killing skills, your hearing skills are truly astonishing."

Yi Chen's sudden arrival made Stephen like it very much, and even recalled some past events.

"My ears are very special, since I was a child, my parents have praised me for my good hearing~ My friends around me have been praising me until I cut off all their ears, and no one praises me anymore, and it is much quieter!"

"Haha~ It's interesting."

Yi Chen responded with a smile and politeness,

At first glance, he could see that Stephen was a guy with mental illness, but Yi Chen did not reject such people, and even admired and admired the other party's 'hearing'.

In an open cavern like the bottom of the floor, he could immediately determine the location of the death statue as long as he listened attentively.

At this moment,

Stephen leaned in with his old shrunken face full of ears, and whispered:

"What are you thinking, William? Do you want to cut off my head and wear it around your waist as a living charm?

If I take out my head and listen to it in advance when I need it, I will be able to gain a first-hand battlefield form and gain an intelligence advantage. ”

Yi Chen was taken aback by this sudden crazy speech, "Huh? It's really not ......."

Stephen shook his fingers and continued: "Don't be in a hurry to deny it~ My ears can hear a lot of information, both on the surface and internally, and I can hear it clearly.

Even those things that are perfectly hidden must have a 'murmur' as long as they exist.

The murmur in you is tiny, tiny, but mixed with a great dissonance, muddier than any wicked person I've ever heard.

I can't tell if you've controlled this extreme bad emotion, or if you're deliberately pretending to be a good person...... But being able to generate this emotion is enough to show that you are not a simple person, and you must have experienced unexpected painful past, which is one of the reasons why I like your ears.

Someone like you must have great ambitions, and I'm afraid that this trip to the original tomb is not only for the sake of the cuneiform, but also to cast a net everywhere to try to gain more profits, am I right? ”

"If curiosity is also a form of ambition, right?" Yi Chen responded with a smile.

"That's okay~ When you have enough strength, if you are still interested in my head, come back to the original tomb and challenge me to death, as long as you can win, you can take everything from me.

It's actually nice to have my head with you, at least to keep it in your ears than to look at these boring dead. ”

Yi Chen no longer replied, only feeling that the topic was getting more and more biased, and naturally he didn't take Stephen's crazy words to heart.

However, if you think about it, it seems that if you can actually cut off Stephen's head and use it as a sensory accessory, it seems to be a good look.

If you really want to do this, you will have to at least educate him, and this stage is not enough to educate Mr. Stephen, who has already completed the path.

Two hours passed quickly,

Stephen was also extremely reluctant to leave, and even tried to stay in the guest room for the night, but of course was ruthlessly rejected by Yi Chen.

Seeing that he was about to walk out of the door, he poked his head in again, "I'll let you know when the weapon is ready......

Time passed, and the waiting time was much longer than expected, until a week passed.

Early one morning,

When Yi Chen opened his eyes from the bed, a skull with ears was actually pillowed next to him.

"You're awake!"

"Mr. Stephen? Is the weapon finally ready? ”

"Yes, but it's a bit of a hassle...... Your cuneiform stone is so perfect that it unleashes a strong "echo of death" during the forging process, and is now crowded in front of the artisan's shop with knights watching the play, some of whom must have bad intentions and even greed

What do you think? Whether you want to hire me as a bodyguard or not, all you need is 'an hour of ear touching' as a bargaining chip, and I will keep you safe all the way until you are escorted out of the Campfire Mountains." ”

"Not really...... Thank you, Mr. Stephen, for your kindness. ”

"Hey, let's go, let's go~"

When the mule led the two to the familiar artisan's shop, although it was not as exaggerated as Stephen described, there were three dead knights standing at the door.

"Let's let ~ what's not like your stuff."

Stephen shouted, and the knight at the door also moved his body slightly, and one of the women wearing a black rabbit mask asked, "Stephen, this strong and murderous reverberation of death should not be a weapon you can control...... Isn't this guy behind you the same human kid from the last live video?

Could it be his? It's really curious. ”

"If you want to buy information, give me the money first, Miss Rabbit. If you don't have any money, don't ask me any more questions. ”

Stephen directly pulled Yi Chen into the interior of the shop,

Mr. Alpache had finished forging and was sitting on a stool waiting silently, a 'finished product' wrapped in a shroud on a stone platform in front of him.

Because the winding was so precise, it was bloated and swollen, and it could only be roughly judged that it was an axe, and the specific form could not be confirmed, and not even a trace of dead air overflowed.

Before Yi Chen could ask, Mr. Alpache suddenly approached his huge stitched body, put his big face in front of Yi Chen and examined it carefully, and the tongue in his mouth kept beating and said:

"I really can't see it, I didn't expect that the young and friendly human beings actually hide strong negative emotions such as killing intent, death, and pain.

I've even wondered many times when examining your remaining arm, wondering if I'm somewhere, but now it seems...... Hmm~ You seem to have deliberately coated yourself with a 'friendly' outer film dedicated to suppressing your nature.

Therefore, the main direction of my weapon transformation and upgrade is biased towards this "negative feeling" hidden in your body, which eventually leads to a slightly irritable finished product, and the first blade must taste the flesh of the strong, otherwise the weapon will break by itself.

Before encountering a strong enemy, let it be in a restrained state.

After you have successfully opened the blade, if you feel that such a weapon is not suitable for you, you can come back to me at any time to rework it, and the material cost is free. ”

"Thank you, Mr. Alpache."

"You don't have to thank me...... I'm intrigued by the alternate death contained in your arms, and this forging is an alternative and novel journey. You're a very complex, funny, and dangerous young man, so it's no wonder the boss is so interested in you and doesn't hold you accountable for killing the dead. Okay, go about your business, and hopefully come back here more often in the future. ”
