Chapter 96: The End of Divination
"Hey! Guys, I heard that there was a safety accident in Red Autumn City, and the church's security personnel were too busy all night! ”
"Hehe, the law is not responsible! Let's grab it now and run back before the other party arrives. ”
Colley looked at the chaotic situation, shocked on one hand, and confused on the other hand by the mind receiving a large amount of information.
He felt sad at first, and then quickly relieved: the ordinary residents of Modong City, who had been suppressed and oppressed, were released when there was a major security incident in Red Autumn City and there were no security personnel to maintain order.
This scene seems to have happened many times in history, as if fate will inevitably come to this point every time.
The expulsion of the Absolute Darkness and the Skinning Angels, and the departure of the Extraordinary Tower, were not followed by a rebuilding of order, but a carnival of tearing apart and spreading chaos.
Colly dragged his wounded body through the streets of the city where thieves poured in.
He tried to take the healing medicine out of his pocket, but found that there was only a leaky bottle for Molotov cocktails in his pocket, and so many things he had prepared were swallowed up by the chariot in the first wave of darkness.
He watched his house and shop being smashed and looted, and he felt an indescribable bitterness in his heart.
Although he barely escaped the fate of fate, these things that belonged to him could not be left behind.
Colley saw Bart, who stood by with his arms and hands outstretched in vain, trying to stop the looting of the shop, only to be met with merciless ridicule and the disdainful shoving and trampling of the crowd.
Colley saw the people of the Brave Hunting Church and the Moonlight Church, who were now in disarray, wounded and bleeding, and had no strength to maintain order, so they could only watch the chaos unfold.
Corrie saw Gid and Caliga coming from the lower town, wrapped in turbans and mingling in the crowd, looting everything in their path like a swarm of rats, and then stopped in front of him.
He had expected that Caliga would see through his disguise, and that in his moment of vulnerability and despair, he would be able to say a few words of encouragement to start anew, and Gid would show kindness in this moment, and take the opportunity to express a nostalgic side.
Who knew that Carika regarded him as a rich drunk, she scratched her head and showed her figure and appearance, and asked Ke Li, a strange old gentleman, if she was interested in accompanying her for a night of spring supper, and the charge was a special price for the first night.
Gid, on the other hand, used his daughter as a tool to make money, rummaging through his pockets without mercy while Caliga was entangled in him, just as he was rummaging through the cloak racks and bricks for hidden money.
At this moment, Ke Li was finally amused by this absurd and disgusting fate.
Obviously staying in Mammoth Horn, there will be a decent life, friendly friends, a satisfying job, and a normal mind.
But he was stuck on the road to promotion, and he was destined to be so disgusted.
He can no longer disguise, the hardships and tribulations along the way, the years of struggle and ups and downs, the efforts and stubbornness of moving forward alone, make him seem like a stubborn clown with empty life principles but no luck in life.
He was so ugly, and every self-confidence and rebellion of the past became so embarrassing in front of the self-willed degenerate.
All his assumptions, all his predictions, all his patience, all his decisions, were like pale and useless work.
"Ha, hahaha......" he laughed uncontrollably, a handful of snot and tears, completely messed together.
A series of failures and mental stimulation finally broke through the underlying bottom line of his self-awareness.
"I see, the key to serial promotion is not self-awareness to become a demon......"
"What bullshit human nature, what barbaric civilization, there are no human beings in this world at all, everyone is a demon who is bound and willing to fall!"
"Everybody will be a demon! All of us have the potential to become demons, hahaha! ”
Gid and Caliga didn't understand what was going on, and in their eyes, Colley was a rich man in tattered gentleman's clothes and a lost feeling, and he was going drunk.
But in the next second, they felt each other's shadows begin to squirm, and an unreal phantom light enveloped their eyes:
In front of him was an apple tree full of golden apples, and a giant python with yellow and black scales was entrenched in the tree, smiling and looking at Gid and Calika, who were standing under the tree, eager to pick the fruit.
"Hiss! Long time no see, good luck unlucky man, don't look at me as a snake, but I'm not interested in devouring you, it's just that my brain isn't very good and I can't figure out some things, so I have the simplest question I want to ask you-"
"The happiest life is to be able to afford to live as a rich man, do you agree with this sentence?"
Gid and Caliga looked at each other blankly, touched their shoulders and rubbed their hands together, making a gesture of the manifestation of the god of wealth:
"Of course, what are the troubles of the rich people's lives? You can definitely get happiness! ”
Hearing this, the yellow and black python grinned at them with its teeth, and then it waved its tail, and the golden apples were shot down from the tree, and when they fell to the ground, they split into golden pound coins, rolling all over the ground.
With each golden apple struck, the branches and leaves withered and withered, and they didn't realize what was happening.
"Oh my God! It's gold coins, it's all as happy as a dream, we've come to the right place in Red Autumn City! ”
But while the two were busy picking up the gold coins, their shadows writhed restlessly.
A strange and terrifying cold dispelled the illusion in front of him, and the middle-aged man with eyes as bright as a poisonous snake tore off the leather mask on his face with a demonic look, and looked at the two of them condescendingly:
"The price of getting 500 gold pounds is a curse, and when you run out of gold coins, you will die."
"Whether you want to rely on this money to start a good life again, or do you want to lose your life in a desperate gamble, it's completely up to you."
"That's my answer to fate, let's see for myself."
With these words, Gid and Caliga fall into an ice cave, and they quickly realize that they have encountered a neurotic extraordinary.
The mouth was bitter, but the contract had been reached at this time, and a wriggling black snake had appeared in their shadow, and once they were about to spend the money, the black snake in the shadow would poison them, a fact that could never be reversed.
There is nothing more painful than taking a sum of money and not being able to squander it, which is both a compromise on the benevolent side of humanity and a revenge on the murderous side of the demonic side.
And Colley didn't intend to give them a chance to regret it, his long-standing wish and persistence were shattered by fate on this absurd night, the chains that bound him no longer existed, and there was no need for him to continue to stay in the United Twin Cities.
Once the core meaning of this anomalous sequence is understood, it means that the ritual of Sequence 17 Sinking Snake is complete.
His body underwent a new transformation, and illusory snake scales appeared on his skin, and quietly hibernated.
"Tower Pathway and the Ancients, right? Since fate has destined me to be inseparable from you, let's see you at the next intersection. ”
Clenched his fists viciously, Ke Li fluttered all over, holding on to his empty body, relying on this vicious aura disgusted by fate to hold his spirit and not sleep, and strode out.
Until the moment he stepped out of the gate of Red Autumn City, he suddenly felt that he had tripped over something, and almost flew beyond the cliff, becoming the first extraordinary person in the United Twin Cities to fall to his death because of his extremely bad state.
At this time, he had to face his own embarrassment and vulnerability, covering his face and arms and curling up on the road.
"Hey, did someone fall over there? Would you like to give him a hand? It looks like it was a terrible fall, and it was bleeding. ”
"Don't meddle with things, it's a rare opportunity in Red Autumn City, if you don't go to the free rush this time, when will you be able to make money!"
"Poof, he looks so pitiful, his monocle has been knocked off, let him gasp for himself......"
He had been lying on the ground and resting for 5 minutes, and he didn't even care about him when someone climbed the mountain next to him to join the robbery, so he barely supported his body and sat up.
In all fairness, the feeling after seeing through fate was not bad, but this toss far exceeded his expectations, so that he had no way to hide such a humiliating scene.
But recalling the stumbling touch similar to that in the memory dream, Colley reached out suspiciously and touched the place where he had tripped himself.
Pretending to fumble on the ground for glasses, he actually found a completely transparent stone that could not be observed.
There seems to be a distinct metal wire on the stone, and you can decipher the extraordinary meaning of it by reaching out.
[This is the reward for clearing "Absolute Darkness", even if it is illusory light, it contains miracles and hopes]
"I'm getting more and more disgusted with things like 'prophecy', and what kind of thing trips me up again......"
Ke Li was slightly stunned, pretending not to find anything, touched the wing of his nose with his empty fingers, and secretly stuffed the stone into his arms.
"I'll borrow it, I'm not going to grab anything from you, I didn't catch anything and I fell enough, I've had enough of red tape, I just want to find a place to indulge myself and cry, can you please make way?"
