Chapter 383: "The Game of the Ancestral Gods" to the source
An elegy in a black robe tossed and turned in the ruins.
The battle between the two high-level beast kings caused extremely serious damage to the originally quiet mountain forest, and to survive this stormy destructive force is a blessing in misfortune for Elegy.
"Those guys...... Still alive? ”
On the way to continue to move away from the center of the disaster, Elegy's heart is enveloped by great unease.
No one could have predicted that the situation would turn out to be so bad:
The "main chess" she relied on was actually stolen halfway through, and what is even more incredible is that the initiator is the source of the power of the legendary sacred mountain - the unblasphemous existence in the mouth of the Holy Mother: the ancestral god!
In her concept, the ancestral god is the source of the power of the sacred mountain, and it is the common reliance of all the children of the sacred mountain headed by the Holy Mother! It is a powerful, mysterious, transcendent being.
However, these long-term accumulated cognitions were almost overturned because of what had just happened.
In an extremely absurd way, it shook her faith......
All of this is thanks to the hidden dragon!
This prince, who has been impregnated by the official big dye vat, is just a human licensee, but he dares to challenge the rule-makers? Offend the unthinkable being...... In the eyes of the elegy, these are tantamount to hitting a stone with an egg, not only will it not do any good, but it will also lead others to hell.
That's the rule-maker! The source of the power of Mount Kinabalu!
Who would be stupid enough to go toe-to-toe with such a being?
The elegy is incomprehensible, and in the end it can only be explained by the fact that Qianlong does not use his extreme personality - because of his extremely narcissistic personality, he has not been able to make a rational decision about the situation.
She could have expected the end of this farce, and the end of the hidden dragon should not be used...... Of course, none of this matters.
Importantly, where does she go from here?
In this race for the prince, she has lost her backbone. As a vice-chess player, she can't control the direction of her own survival.
Is it really necessary to follow the hidden dragon and not to hit the stone with an egg?
Or, wandering in this sacred mountain that is both real and illusory......
"It's better than being killed for no apparent reason."
A resolute sneer rose at the corner of the elegy's mouth:
"No matter how bad it is, Our Lady will intervene......"
So she finally decided: take the opportunity to escape from this place, and on the premise of preserving herself, she will completely cut off the team with the hidden dragon!
Although this does not mean that there is a better way out, but follow the Qianlong not to use this kind of "madman" action, the consequences must be unimaginable.
By this time she had reached the level, and looking back at the direction of the battlefield, the astonishing destruction seemed to have subsided.
The elegy did not dare to delay, and was ready to take advantage of this wave of calm to flash people as soon as possible.
However, just as she was about to spread her wings and fly away as fast as she could, a dangerous aura suddenly invaded her senses, sending a chill down Elegy's spine!
Sha Jin, standing in the shadow behind the elegy.
The long, narrow and poisonous tail hook passes under the elegy's legs, and the angle is lifted upward, and it is lightly and precisely pressed against the throat of the elegy.
"The game isn't over yet, where are you in a hurry?"
Listening to Sha Jin's almost cold tone, the elegiac pupils tightened.
Careless!
The chaotic thoughts in her mind and the chaotic environment made her neglect to be vigilant about her surroundings. I didn't expect Sha Jin to be so persistent, and in this chaotic situation, he was still abiding by his duty as a "deputy chess".
"Don't be impulsive, Brother Shajin, I'm just following the meaning of not using the hidden dragon and staying away from the battlefield." The elegy that has been controlled by others naturally does not dare to act rashly.
"Really?"
"Of course, do you think I have any other choice?"
"You'd better think so." Sha Jin slowly retracted the tail hook.
He is facing the back of the elegy, and he has an advantageous advantage, and it is expected that the other party will not try to go to extremes.
However, immediately after the scorpion hook left the key point of the elegy, a strange guttural voice intimidated Shajin's sense of hearing!
The intense pessimism immediately enveloped Shajin, causing his thoughts to turn to depression and depravity, and his desire to fight was gradually on the verge of collapse.
But seeing that Elegy quietly turned her cheeks sideways, before Sha Jin could react, she had already come a few meters away and distanced herself from Sha Jin.
“…… Sure enough, she had a different heart. Sha Jin stared intently at the elegy.
At the same time, the venomous scorpiontail hook pierced into his own skin, forcing himself back to consciousness with venom!
"I have no intention of being your enemy, Brother Shakin, I just want to live!"
Before Shakin pounced again, the elegy had set up a sound barrier, intent on slowing Shakin's offensive while quickly making his position clear:
"Hey! You can also see that my main chess Shui Longyin has no hope of competing for the prince, and I have no reason to continue to stay here for your main chess drive. ”
"Besides, the hidden dragon don't use the move is too bold, he has already offended the most untouchable character in this game, I don't think it will be good to continue to follow him, as a colleague, I advise you to also see the situation clearly and plan early!"
Hearing this, Sha Jin stopped in place and was silent for a long time.
In the end, he still showed his weapon to the elegy: "Sorry, letting you go will only increase the risk of this 'game'." ”
"Do you still believe that the Hidden Dragon can take the storage position and leave here alive?"
The elegy showed an expression of hatred that iron is not steel:
"This person doesn't even care about the maker of the rules of the game, and you're still following the rules for him? It's crazy...... Okay, then I'll pour some cold water on you and make you sober! ”
As the words fell, tension immediately erupted between the two.
"Wait~"
At this moment, Ayiguli's seductive voice rippled between the two, giving the looming conflict a little room to turn around.
Then, Ayiguli appeared next to Sha Jin.
"You, how could it be?" Sha Jin was slightly stunned.
Ayiguli smiled and flicked her palm, and after a while, two small creatures that were extremely imperceptible bounced up from the collar of the sleeves of Elegy and Sha Jin, and obediently fell into Ayiguli's palm.
The praying mantis catches the cicada, and the yellow finch is behind.
The situation couldn't be clearer.
"The battle just now was too scary, and I was worried that everyone would be separated, so I prepared in advance." As she spoke, Ayiguli winked at Sha Jin beside her, "You won't mind, will you?" ”
Sha Jin's originally stiff face suddenly became even stiffer, and he couldn't help but swallow.
The reaction made Ayiguli giggle again.
On the other side, the elegy, which was still somewhat certain, finally broke off the idea of winning in danger.
But she still didn't give up arguing: "Ayiguli, are you still unwilling to accept the reality after the incident? ”
Ayiguli looked at the elegy and said with a smile: "Reality? This is a sacred mountain! There is only vanity, where is there any reality? ”
"If you continue like this, the hidden dragon will kill us all!"
Elegy interrupts:
"Even if he is the person you are hoping for, I will say that this person is very dangerous now! He's going against the rules, he's dancing on the tip of a knife, you know what I mean! ”
Ayiguli chuckled lightly and was about to return the favor, but was successfully attracted by a sound of breaking the air above:
The familiar figure suddenly fell from the sky and fell into the center of the sight of the three of them, it was Jiang Qian.
"Dancing on the tip of a knife, your metaphor is well used, but you get it wrong."
Jiang Qian slowly turned his face sideways and looked at the elegy with a helpless face:
"It's not that I'm going against the rules. The first to break the rules is what you call the so-called rule-makers. ”
"Jiang Qian!" Ayiguli was pleasantly surprised, and looked at Jiang Qian's eyes full of admiration.
Shakin was equally surprised.
The Beastmaster's fight has indeed stopped, and Jiang Potential appears here freely at this moment, indicating that the battle of the Beastmaster has not only not implicated him, but has even been under his control.
And the elegy that was still vibrant just now, but Jiang Qian, who fell from the sky like a god of death, was shocked into a cold sweat!
If the alliance between Ayiguli and Shajin still has a chance to be separated, then now? The main chess game is present, the military spirit is stable, and she has nothing to do.
Jiang Qian's body was still covered with a large amount of muddy blood. Of course, most of this blood did not belong to Jiang Qian, which made him look even more perverse and terrifying, making people dare not look at him directly.
And what Jiang Qian said and his weird temperament at the moment also made the elegy unpredictable, or he didn't dare to think deeply!
Elegy endured the noise in her skull, doing her best to save her out-of-control expression, but it couldn't resist the despair that was eating her up little by little......
Jiang Qian approached the elegy unhurriedly.
The calm before the storm, and the slow torment that followed, deepened the panic of the elegy.
She finally gave up the struggle and sat down on the ground, choosing to accept her end in an impossible situation.
But in the next second, she realized that she was wrong.
Jiang Qian stopped in front of her and stretched out his right hand towards her: "Stand up and speak." ”
This was completely unexpected by Elegy.
Looking at Jiang Qian's outstretched hand, she wondered several times if this was her hallucination? Or maybe it's another way to lead to death.
Ayiguli and Shajin glanced at each other, and they both saw confusion on each other's faces.
At the moment, no one can understand Jiang Qian's thoughts.
"I know what happens to the betrayer...... Let's do it, why bother acting like this? Elegy glanced up at Jiang Qian, lowered his eyes and smiled bitterly. It was like a march for himself.
"Do it?"
Jiang Qian smiled and withdrew his outstretched hand, and looked down at the elegy faintly: "Do you want to die?" ”
This reaction makes the elegy feel like pins and needles.
"No offense, your death is of little value to me."
At this time, Jiang Qian's every sentence sounded like a humiliation in the ears of the elegy, which was based on the wrong perception of Jiang Qian's thinking mode in the elegy.
"What else do you want?!" Elegy finally gets out of control.
All of these variables she went through, factions aligned, covenants torn up, forced hostility to the rule-makers...... It's all thanks to the other party!
Obviously, as a vice-chess player, he has no choice, but now he has reached a desperate situation, and he will be criticized for even "seeking death"?
She was also a proud saint of the sacred mountain, one in a thousand, and at the moment when she chose her own prince, she also imagined the pomp and grace of her own honor to succeed her as the next generation of the Holy Mother!
Heaven does not fulfill people's wishes, shouldn't the hidden dragon trample on even her pride and self-esteem?
The corners of the elegy's eyes are bloodshot, and at any time all thoughts may be one, desperately fighting.
Jiang Qian also noticed this.
But he remained calm and calmly responded to the confusion of the elegy:
"It's not what I want, it's what you want. Putting aside the relationship between you and me for now, how do you make sure that you don't fall victim to the game after you leave us? ”
Victim of the game......
All the emotions of the elegy, frozen in this moment, dumb fire.
She suddenly understood the meaning of Jiang Qian's words, and sobered up because of this: the water dragon that was inexplicably dropped, the mysterious death of Yu Mulan, including Jiang Qian, who was almost stabbed out of the back, before they were treated unfairly, they were all following the rhythm of the game to participate in the competition, and there was no cross-line behavior.
Even so, they will still be sacrificed, and even go out inexplicably and without warning...... So how sure is she to protect herself?
Wish for the moon.
At this conclusion, Elegy let out a sigh of relief, her whole body slumping, and she realized how ridiculous her argument was.
"There's a fact I want you to understand: whether you accept it or not, the game has deviated from its original direction. The fact that the rule-maker was able to take the initiative to break his own rules is the best example of this. ”
"Since the rules can no longer protect us, whether it is me, you, or anyone else, we can be sacrificed at any time. Can we agree on this? ”
Elegy listened to Jiang Qian's statement in a daze, and only nodded subconsciously when he heard the last question.
Jiang Qian's calmness and patience made her shake her initial judgment at the moment: she overestimated her own judgment, and at the same time underestimated Jiang Qian.
"Since it's a boat person, stand up and talk." Jiang Qian stretched out his hand towards the elegy again.
Elegy raised his head in surprise, looked at Jiang Qianyun's breezy face, stared deeply into those unwavering eyes, and said in a low voice: "Conditions...... What is it? ”
No one simply forgives a betrayer.
Rather than those high-sounding words, the elegy prefers to believe in real reasons.
"Based on contract props, accompany me to play this unruly game."
Jiang Qian's answer was very simple:
"It's a dangerous decision to find out where the incident happened and who our opponent really is, and it could kill you at any time. But I think it's probably the best chance of a safe landing. ”
Ayiguli and Sha Jin looked at each other, and then looked at Jiang Qian.
Their eyes have also become different, a little less confused, a little more determined.
After a short silence, Elegy chuckled: "Left and right are playing with life, and being a sober ghost is better than being a fool." ”
After speaking, she mustered up the courage to hold Jiang Qian's hand and stood up easily under the influence of the other party's strength.
"You're right, to win this game, we have to be very sober."
Jiang Qian's words of elegy focus on the main contradiction at present:
"The most important question we need to figure out at the moment is the purpose of the ancestral god: why did he interfere in the competition for the prince, and what did he want from us?"
"Also, what is the root cause of our misalignment with the Ancestral God's purpose?"
Jiang Qian said, looking at the three of them in turn:
"I need you to give me all the information and answers you can think of, from your own perspective."
