Chapter 67: Lost
The night is deep, the chaotic capital is mysterious and terrible, epics and legends are not born in the black land, but the dirty blood is often flowing, the late night here does not mean peace, occasionally you will hear the roars and wails of people in the distance, no one knows where the road ahead will be, just like the goddess of fate in mythology always covers her eyes with her hands.
"It's one of the best lofts in the middle of the world, and through the lovely painted windows, you can see the black castle and the ancient and magnificent demon statue in the distance, and it's nice to enjoy the scenery in the sinful land, and if you're lucky, maybe you'll see some fresh blood." ”
The enchantress bent down slightly, muttered a few words in Li Laifu's ear, and the forged gold boots covered all the way below the knees, but this not only did not make the enchantress of the enchantress wither, but added a hazy beauty, only to see this demon who was a scourge slowly moving his snow-white long legs, glancing at Li Laifu in a variety of ways, and finally leaving a slender figure in the narrow corridor.
An Shibai consciously glanced at the bearded dwarf, and sure enough, this guy had lowered his head, as for bravery and intelligence, it had become the last movement in the mouth of the dwarf since the appearance of the enchantress.
"Lovely oil painting. ”
The fatal figure of the enchantress has disappeared, Li Laifu smiled bitterly and looked at the only window in this attic, the oil painting window paper was decorated with two miserable white skeletons, blood flowed down the skeleton's head, and the all-white oil painting had these shocking colors, but it was enough to make human vision have a violent impact.
"It's really a unique style, is it true that everyone in the City of Chaos is so heavy-mouthed. ”
Li Laifu muttered to himself, looked around, and looked at the attic.
The ornamentation on the ceiling resembles the indomitable style of the Ottoman Empire, the legends of some heroes and the swords that shine on the battlefield, and the door made of unknown materials is actually a completely different ornament of the luxurious empire Alberon, and the two beautiful goblets are overflowing with red rum, and flowers and thorns are clustered around the goblets to form a slightly ironic picture of a aristocratic dinner.
The rest of the walls and the like are mostly covered with some strange pictures, at least Li Laifu can't see any style, such as a man with three eyes, a beast with two heads, and so on, these abstract patterns are simply countless.
"If you still want me to call you that, then, Lord heretical, why do I feel like we're in another world now? ”
Li Laifu handed over a playful smile to An Shibai and said so.
"Emery, to be honest, I feel like this is no ordinary place, and I have the illusion of being watched whenever and wherever I am. ”
An Shibai suddenly patted Li Laifu on the shoulder, and pointed behind him with a stern face.
Li Laifu narrowed his eyes, his gaze as sharp as a sword.
As a mage, and a mage who almost drowned in the sea of wisdom and ignorance, Li Laifu thought that he still had a bit of vision, especially in the face of those strange lives, he felt that he should be able to see a little bit of clues that ordinary people could not imagine.
The blood-red ominous eyes, and the murmur from the depths of the magical ocean, at this moment, those terrifying images clearly appeared in front of his eyes.
"One day, there will be no more mystery to me in the world, and all ominous existence will be shattered. ”
Li Laifu muttered, feeling a bit like a knight slaying a dragon, but he never thought that this kind of pride and humility would be destroyed in less than three breaths.
Relying on the height advantage given by the years, An Shibai slapped Li Laifu's head.
"Meaningless muttering will make you die a miserable death. ”
"If you are so rude again, you will not get a single gold coin, doesn't the Dalchas Ranger Guild care about reputation, and dare to be so rude to the employer. ”
"First of all, you're not an employer, and second, I'm determined to be a heretical ranger. ”
An Shibai's triumphant appearance was very underwhelming, but considering the current tragic predicament, Li Laifu had no choice, so he gave up and focused all his attention on An Shibai's back.
It was a very strange statue.
Covered in copper red, the mottled body tells the traces of time, which should have been a common decorative item for some nobles, but here it looks, there is an inexplicable weirdness, and the very religious altar sitting at the bottom reveals that he is a god who is worshipped.
But whether it is Li Laifu, who has seven years of scholarly precipitation, or An Shibai, who has traveled to countless corners of the Eternal Continent, he can't recognize which civilization this belongs to.
It is simply impossible, because the supreme god does not have a unified face at all, and even in the "Apocalypse of Light" there is a saying that "light deifies all things, and all things are gods of light", and legend has it that there is a statue of the god of light without facial features in the Vatican Holy See for light.
Li Laifu walked to the front of the statue, stretched out his left hand, stroked it lightly a few times, and then quickly retreated like an electric shock, muttering.
"It's weird, there's not the slightest touch at all. ”
Its eyes were open as if it was staring at every living life in the attic, and on the forehead of this statue, there was even an eye, I don't know if it was because the years were too ruthless or it should have been, and the existence of the pupil could not be seen in that eye, as if it was just an empty eye socket, eerie and abnormal.
"The brave dwarves need to sleep, they need to rest!
The bearded dwarf's roar came suddenly, and Li Laifu and An Shibai were frightened at the same time, and they all glared at the bastard.
The dwarf smiled awkwardly, and the little short legs ran to the side of a large bed covered with gold wool, and threw the battle axe that had extinguished the flames to the ground, and with a loud bang, the guy jumped and jumped directly onto the bed.
"Brave dwarves need a big comfortable bed, and even better if there is rum. ”
Li Laifu smiled dumbly, the peculiar racial culture makes this group of little short-legged humans think about the barrel and enjoy it at any crisis, maybe this is also a kind of luck.
Gently glancing at the strange statue, Li Laifu was no longer entangled, there was no safety in this world, so why bother looking for it, waiting for the opportunity, light and darkness will come together.
"Bearded, what's your name. ”
Li Laifu suddenly thought that this dwarf had been following his ass since he left the Shenqi Tavern, and as for the group of small mercenaries of the Yanlong Mercenary Group, they were also ruthlessly abandoned by him for some reason, but where the origin of the beard was sacred, this is really a mystery, the flame battle axe and the fighting spirit of the flame are not the talents that ordinary dwarves can show.
"His name is Bearded Tattoo, a powerful and brave dwarf, it must be so, right? ”
An Shibai showed a strange expression, and the bearded dwarf was furrowed at the dead body lying motionless on the golden velvet bed.
"Tattoo Pigeon?"
While Li Laifu was pondering why the name was so joyful, the spearhead of all this had already begun his trademark roar.
"You kiss the ass, little ranger, your whole family is kissing the ass, and the brave dwarf is going to split your head with an axe!"
The bearded dwarf roared, but the whole person was still lying on the bed like a dead corpse.
Li Laifu shook his head silently, the two guys with completely different beliefs and civilizations seem to get along very well now.
Suddenly, a sudden worry came to Li Laifu, without the slightest sign and prelude, Li Laifu only felt a heartbeat, as if he had lost something very important, but he couldn't remember what it was, as if in his mind, someone had built a high wall to block the arrival of hope.
"Flame Axe Fury, prefixed with the name of the Glorious Clan, followed by the name of the Brave Dwarf, two little ones, do you know, in our clan, I have the glorious title of 'Brave Fury'! Because I once hunted a Sixth-Order Storm Demon Wolf alone in the Abomination Mountains. ”
The bearded dwarf suddenly turned around, pointed the redbeard and the big head at the ceiling, and looked at the heroic patterns and epic battlefields on it in a daze, and said with some pride.
Li Laifu seemed to see countless melancholy on his red beard.
