Zhang Eryijiu: Suffocation
The reflection of the Impregnation Tower, here is the space opened up by the star power - the Star Tower. The celestial vault here is always a shiny and misty star, which allows the astrologers to observe the position of the stars more accurately and concretely, and deduce the people and things on the earth.
Of course, it is a great honor to be able to enter the Star Tower and observe the stars in the sky. At least in the Star Society, basically only the top level can enter and exit the Star Tower at will. As the highest-ranking consul of the Star Order and the Warlock of the Nation, Tara Sarenwell was naturally able to enjoy this treatment.
Some people say she is in her twenties, others say she is in her early thirties, and the mystery of age makes her beauty a little hazy. No one questioned her strength, nor did anyone question her astrological skills, after all, the title of the Five Demon Warlocks was there, and it was impossible to be weak.
Now, Tara is still calculating the next fortune of Yaris. Observing the star positions and calculating the fate of the country according to the degree to which the star power of various attributes affect each other, for her, it was not believed at first. It wasn't until her teacher, who was also her father, calculated her fortune for her and found it accurate, that she became interested in the mysterious and evil doctrine of astrology.
I remember that when she hugged her dead puppy Dobby and cried bitterly, all that echoed in her mind was one sentence: "Calamity, in your Dobby's first star, that is, it will die soon......"
Her father said this with a gentle smile on his face, but Tara knew that her father's smile would never be entirely true. For example, at that time, the other party's tone was cautious, and there was even some comfort.
She still didn't understand what the two stars [Fate] and [Time] were for. When she explained to King Charles, she only copied her father's words, and she always felt that she was still too young.
Tara believed what her father had taught her, and at the same time hated the damn doctrine.
Because, one day, her father saw a solidified brownish-yellow star hanging above his head.
"Tara, you see, its name is Calamity." There was still a smile in the corner of his eye, and he didn't seem to care too much about what the current astrological signs might do to him, "I'm going to die." ”
She doesn't believe in this shit fate! But Tara has become attached to this sense of foresight......
The next day, her father died peacefully. Saul Sarenwell, the national hand-picked warlock, is dead.
Now she had to step into this suffocating space again and again, and she had to explore what she didn't want to see.
"Hmph......" Tara let out a slight breath with her nose, and the [Astrological Book] in her hand immediately floated up and opened automatically, revealing pages of old but timeless content.
According to his father, the runes in the book fell from the sky. But how is that possible...... Runes that fell from the sky...... This must be a lie to a child!
But it is between this small and mysterious rune gap that the majestic and eternal sky is revealed, how beautiful, how mysterious, how fascinating.
"Again...... Again, this is still the result......"
[Torture], 1st Rank, [Life], 2nd Rank......
That's impossible...... These are obviously two completely opposite astrological interpretations! Tara had calculated it many times, but she still got this result. Yaris will usher in an inevitable bloodbath in the country, but after the bloodbath, it will be a sudden prosperity......
"Isn't this called not breaking and not standing......" The senior consul of the Star Society pulled his long hair, and finally sighed, "Is this also fate......
[Fate], the third star position, is in a very awkward position, which can be interpreted a lot, but it is also possible that the bamboo basket is empty. Its star power effect, unknown, its total star power, unknown, its star power attributes, unknown. The three unknowns really make Tara, who is at the top of the authority, a little difficult......
But none of this mattered, and the immediate priority was to remind the current king of Yaris that war was imminent and that he should be ready.
And, of course, prepare the stars.
A large bright silver pentagram loomed out from Tara's back, and as soon as the technique broke away from her back, it began to spin rapidly, faster and faster!
Tara pulled out a piece of letter paper from her bosom and casually threw it towards the inside of the pentagram. The pentagram quickly shrank, and it turned into a large silver cocoon, wrapping the letter in layers, and the space flashed suddenly, and the large cocoon disappeared in an instant.
......
"King Charles, the priests of the original church have asked for an audience."
In the palace of Posselona, King Charles sat boredly on his throne, which was still a blanket, and when he heard the news, the corners of his mouth could not stop curling.
It's coming at this juncture...... It seems that he didn't shed tears when he didn't see the coffin, and he wasted his time.
"Oh? Why did you find me at this time? Charlie's voice was not without banter, he had to stand in a high position, otherwise the next plan could not be carried out.
The priest sent by the original church was dressed in a white robe, with budding pale blue roses embroidered on his shoulders, and five silent blue gems hanging from his chest, like psychedelic stars in the sky.
However, such a gorgeous costume could not relieve the suffocating atmosphere even by half a point, and Charlie had always been accustomed to overwhelming people with momentum, and this psychological oppression could make him accomplish many things with ease.
"Dear ...... No, no—"
"Don't talk clichés, just get down to business." Charlie's eyes narrowed slightly, and the tip of his left finger tapped lightly on the armrest of the throne, "Still, I can probably guess what you want to talk to me about." ”
"Your Majesty...... Wise ......" The priest could only smile bitterly, it was impossible for this old fox not to know what the purpose of his visit was this time, "Our original church is divided into two parts......"
Charlie waved his hand impatiently and said, "I know, so what do you want me to do?" Is it to open up the net, or to help you regain the dominance? ”
The priest was stunned, as if he didn't expect the other party to say this, but he quickly came back to his senses, and a longing expression appeared on his face: "I want you to admit to the outside world that our Primordial Sect is the orthodox Primordial Church...... Dissociation faction, we will send someone to retrieve that first-level magic weapon, so we don't have to bother Your Majesty. And the matter of the orc rebellion...... We can't handle it for the time being, I hope Your Majesty can send someone to deal with it......"
"So, what leverage do you have that I can help you?" Charlie blinked, his lips pursed, "I'm sure you know this." ”
Charlie said this, which means that he has the ability to meet the requirements of the original church, so what price are they willing to pay?
"Please bring it up with Your Majesty, and we will do our best to meet it." These are the words that the priest received at the beginning, and the church hierarchy said that in order to convince Charlie that the insatiable villain, he had to pay a sufficient price.
"Before that, I have a question." Charlie tilted his head and held his chin with his right hand, as if bored.
"Excuse me......," the priest swallowed, feeling something sneaking behind his back, and his chest felt a tightness.
"What is the purpose of that first-level magic weapon?" Charlie smiled like a flower, "And, what's its name?" ”
"The Dissociating Hand dissociates everything it touches into the smallest particles, and reconstructs it into another item according to the user's mind...... Our body transformation technique is based on this first-level magic weapon......"
Charlie interrupted him, and a faint, cruel smile appeared on his face: "Everything, what do you mean...... Soul, magic, body...... Consciousness ......"
"These can theoretically be dissociated and reconstructed," the priest felt a little out of breath, "but [the Dissociating Hand] has the property of being alive, its body is a pair of white gloves, but it is capable of acting on its own. It is very likely that the user will be dismantled because the Dissociating Hand is in a bad mood......"
"That's funny...... Charlie smiled, "this is also one of the important magic weapons of the original church......
"If the situation expands, there is a good chance that this extremely dangerous first-level magic weapon will ...... You have to make a good seal! The priest said.
"I know about it." Charlie suddenly sat upright and nodded.
He raised his hand and tapped the index finger of his right hand lightly against the head of the priest in front of him.
"I promise you, but the price of this matter is that the right to use the [Hand of Dissociation], of course, is nominally owned by you, and I will not use this first-level magic weapon frequently."
This...... How can it be!
The priest's legs were a little limp.
Just out of the wolf's den, and into the snake's den......
But...... It's at least better than handing it over to the dissociation faction!
......
A dimly lit underground plaza.
"Ho...... Ho...... "The weasel orc was covered in sweat, and he curled up in a dimly lit corner, trembling weakly, "Don't ...... Don't kill me......"
Suffocating stress, fear, and despair.
In front of him, it was surrounded by a group of orc vigilantes, all of them with banter, disdain, and contempt.
"Traitor."
"Damn it...... ...... scum as orcs"
Each orc carried a giant blade larger than the others in his hand, and under Fei's peeping glance, these large knives ......
As long as you give it to him, he will definitely die on the spot.
