Chapter 292: Unfair!
The body of the stray dog that visited in the middle of the night decomposed, turning into a series of tiny black and white hairs, which spread and writhed on the walls, covering the entire rental house into a grotesque black and white jungle.
The air smelled of dampness and rust.
Where the pirate dog had crouched before, a tall silhouette was projected on the wall.
It had a large, three-pronged head, if that could be called a head, with a three-pronged head almost touching the ceiling, and beneath the neck was a writhing mass of amorphous tension and contraction.
Lu Yao used Isabel's eyeballs to activate the [True Vision Curse].

……
At one o'clock in the middle of the night, a duel suddenly started in the rental house and ended at the speed of light.
"It's not fair!"
The pirate dog lay on the ground exhausted, crossed by the Blood Knight's greatsword and the tyrant's bone sword, and Isabelle's holy sword hovering over his head.
It struggled to raise its head: "The duel is one-on-one!" The three of you fight one! It's not fair! ”
Lu Yao took the pork ribs and took a bite of the boiled soft and glutinous and spicy meat.
"Now it is a society governed by the rule of law, and duels are no longer in vogue."
The pirate dog looked unwilling.
Lu Yao was startled at the beginning, how could a strange dog come out of nowhere.
Through the Curse of True Vision, he found that this pirate dog was not weak, and he could still have this data panel with [Weak], but it was a pity that it encountered the Three Great Apostles.
It's normal to be defeated and captured.
Although he was curious to know the dog's origins, it was more important to have a late-night snack for now. If the hot ribs are cooled, the flavor and taste will be much worse.
Lu Yao continued to eat steak with Coke.
Isabel interrogated the captive: "Where did you come from?" ”
"I'm not a dog!"
Harrow stiffened his neck: "Don't insult me! I'm not a primitive creature like a dog! ”
A Dalmatian dog is a bit unconvincing when he says that.
Isabel frowned: "You're a wolf?" ”
"It's not a wolf either!"
Harrow bared his teeth in anger: "I am Sleepless Harrow, I am from the noble underworld, one of the Cyberas who guards the gates of the underworld!" ”
The underworld?
Lu Yao wiped his mouth with a tissue: "The underworld you are talking about, is it the underworld where the dead go to, or the underworld that will torment ghosts?" ”
"The underworld does not torture ghosts, and even if you are the one who set sail, you cannot slander us!"
Although Harrow is stuck in the neck with a sword, he still tries to defend his hometown.
Lu Yao thought while eating pork ribs.
In the legends and myths recorded by mankind, people in different regions have different definitions and understandings of the underworld.
Now it seems that the underworld may really exist.
"Talk about the underworld." Lu Yao spoke.
"Wishful thinking, even if you kill me, I won't betray the underworld!"
Although Harrow was reduced to a prisoner, he had a peculiar arrogance and persistence.
Lu Yao placed the bowl in front of it, and there was still a meat steak left in it.
"What do you mean by that?"
Harrow angrily said, "I'm not a dog! You're here to get food! ”
"No, it's a little late-night snack for the visitors."
Lu Yao took off his disposable gloves and clapped his hands: "It's a discussion, it's a fight, it's a trouble, okay." Let go of our guests. ”
The three Isabel put away their weapons, but they didn't move, still staring at the outsider from the underworld, ready to subdue it.
Harrow hesitated, licked his nose with his tongue, looked at the fat and thin braised pork ribs in the bowl in front of him, and tried to look away, but he couldn't help but look into the bowl.
"Since you're so polite, thank you for your hospitality......"
It mumbled, buried its head in the bowl, and gobbled down the bone.
It didn't take long for Harrow to lick a chunk of ribs until all that was left was a graying bone.
After eating Lu Yao's meal, the pirate dog became much more polite and polite: "I am really grateful to be able to be entertained by you for visiting late at night." ”
"Before, I just wanted to get closer and further sift through the memories of the silkworm bush, and there was no malice in it - it stored the memories with you, and it must have trusted you very much. Please forgive me for being reckless. ”
"It's okay, let's make friends."
Lu Yao said in obedience: "Harrow, I'm curious, what is the underworld like?" ”
"In various human records and oral accounts, some people say that the underworld is a place where the dead are held, some say that it is a cage to punish ghosts, and some say that it is a place where the dead and the living are reincarnated."
Harrow squatted on the ground in a dignified posture and said, "Lord Hades is forbidden to divulge the real-time situation of the underworld to the outside world. ”
"However, you are the Venerable Voyager, so let me make some generalizations that do not violate the oracle."
"The Underworld, like here, is a near-solidified high-realm dimension, a collective name for a large collection of worlds. The god of the underworld is the ruler and protector of the underworld. ”
"Unlike this world, the underworld has a special rule that connects with many worlds. The lower dimension continues to move, and the dead will be transformed into ghosts and led into the Sea of Perdition, the River Styx of the Underworld. On the other hand, the Upper Realm is at rest and cannot naturally produce ghosts. ”
"It's a one-way anchor."
The word anchor evoked Lu Yao's memories.
The Golden Fields have the ability to anchor the world, but the prerequisite is that there must be overlapping at the world level first.
Harrow continued: "One-way anchoring, so that the deceased can follow the transmission and continuity of the power of the world's rules, through one world after another, and enter the underworld ......"
Under the power of the rules of the world, the ghosts are drawn to the underworld on their final way home. They are like meteorites flying in the universe, shuttling through the vast and boundless dimensional space.
Unlike meteorites, the ghosts are towed, transmitted, and converged by worlds, like a long-distance train bound for distant places, stopping at one stop at a time and then continuing on its way with new passengers.
After a long journey to the dead, he will finally arrive at the gathering place of the dead, the sinking sea of the underworld.
Lu Yao listened curiously: "During the long-distance journey, will the ghost be intercepted or stranded?" ”
"Yes."
Harrow couldn't help but lick the bottom of the bowl: "Life and death are free, they don't want to go to the land of the dead, and they don't force it." It's just a rule-based tradition, anyway. ”
A thought popped up in Lu Yao's mind.
If so...... Wouldn't it be possible to place some Grim Reapers, in other simulator worlds, and let them intercept some of the undead and send them to Saniro, the city of the dead.
One more source of population!
Lu Yao asked Harrow directly about this idea.
Its eyes widened: "This ......"
"Can't you?"
Lu Yao was a little disappointed.
As a high-dimensional world with a long history, the underworld can be one-way anchored at the level of many world rules, and its strength is undoubted.
To provoke the underworld for the sake of the ghost population would be more than worth the cost.
"It's not impossible, the underworld doesn't matter."
Harrow scratched his head vigorously with his claws, "Dragons do the same. Most of the dead of the dragon clan will not enter the underworld and will remain in the dragon tomb. ”
"It's just that there are a series of difficulties in intercepting the ghosts of the outside world passing by, and it's far more difficult than it seems. It's hard to get results after a lot of time and effort, so I think it's best to give up on it. ”
"Understood, thanks for the reminder."
Lu Yao asked Harrow: "Eat more?" ”
"Okay, okay!"
Harrow licked his nose.
The low fire served two more ribs, and it placed the plate respectfully in front of Harrow.
"Hello, why did you leave your hometown and come here?"
Lu Yao's words made the pirate dog's eyes melancholy, as if the ribs in the bowl were not fragrant.
"I'm here for a duel, a life-and-death duel that I agreed to do many years ago."
"But when I came here, I couldn't find it."
