Chapter 202: An Exposition of Fate
"...... Lucius" Seeing Lucius leading his own car, with no horses pulling the metal carriage slowly, Noko, Christine, and Shadow couldn't help but exclaim.
Lucius didn't care about the exclamations of the three people, walked straight to the blue woman, bowed down to the other party and said, "Lucius, I've seen His Majesty, thank you for being able to take care of my companions." ”
The dark blue woman looked down at Lucius, then at the strange metal carriage behind him, and then stared at Lucius with a smile and said, "It seems that you are the little guy who makes Li He jealous? ”
Lucius smiled disapprovingly and said, "Don't get in the way, Li He will meet sooner or later, in fact, I am still of great use to him, he will not let people kill me." ”
"Well, little one, you can see it very thoroughly, but if Li He doesn't get what he wants, he's a man who would rather destroy it, so you'd better not provoke him too much. ”
In response to the blue woman's warning, Lucius looked embarrassed and said, "Then I'm afraid, I'm going to disappoint you, I've provoked him more than once, and I seem to have captured one of his favorite juniors." ”
As he spoke, Lucius waved his hand and patted the carriage behind him, and the "creak" was accompanied by the sound of gears turning in the carriage, and soon a ball-shaped object fell out of the carriage.
The spherical thing had just landed, and he looked around dizzily, and before he could see the surrounding scenery clearly, his mouth had already cursed: "Damn guy, don't let me out." If I go out from here, I will definitely break you to pieces, and I will torture you to death. ”
It was naturally Li Hao who fell out. He struggled to overcome his dizziness and struggled to get up and take a closer look around him, seeing the lifeless dead around him and the woman in front of him in the blue flames.
Almost instantly, he jumped up and exclaimed, "Oh my God, what the hell is this?"
"Hehe, you're right. It's a ghost place, didn't you just say you'd help me break my body into pieces? Stand still. ”
Li Hao Huo Ran turned around and saw the owner with a familiar voice, the Lecius who grabbed him and tied him up, as well as Noko, Christine, and Ying beside him.
Especially when I saw Shadow standing there. It's just that the breath looks a little weak. Li Hao was a little surprised and said, "You really didn't die, but how could it be? I obviously used the spear given to me by my ancestor to pierce your heart, why didn't you die? Could it be that you are also a dead person?"
Without waiting for the others to speak, Lucius explained very directly: "He is not a dead person, and the reason why he did not die is because he has no heart, so he will not die if he is pierced through the heart." ”
"What? He, he doesn't have a heart? a person, he doesn't have a heart. How can it be possible to continue to live?" Li Hao felt incredible, not believing the explanation that Lucius had given him.
But Lucius said very blandly: "Why can't you?" Isn't he alive and well?"
Seeing that Lecius mentioned that Shadow had no heart, Christine remembered what Shadow had said before, and couldn't help but step forward and ask Lucius: "Lucius, was Shadow's heart really taken away by your father? Then, will your father return Shadow's heart to him? Without a heart, after all, it is incomplete." ”
After speaking, Christine felt Lecius's strange gaze, blushing and lowering her head, and her voice became smaller and smaller, as if Lucius saw through some of her careful thoughts, and did not dare to look at Lucius's gaze.
Looking at Christine's squirming appearance, Lucius smiled and said, "Can't you see it, but your relationship with Shadow has developed?"
Noko was unusually innocent, and said, "What can this be said? How they developed before has nothing to do with me, and I dare not ask about my sister." ”
"Brother, you, why are you coaxing with outsiders?Are you my brother?" was ridiculed repeatedly by Lucius and Norko, Christine suddenly couldn't hold her face, twisted and hid behind Norko, and reached out to gently pat Noko, embarrassed and angry.
Seeing this, Lucius smiled and looked at Shadow, who was also a little embarrassed, seeing this, Lucius smiled and said, "Okay, Shadow, you should know where your heart is, if you want to get it back, I can send you out of the forest first." ”
Shadow immediately refused, saying: "No, I don't want to get my heart back yet, I still have to follow you, I won't get my heart back until I awaken." ”
At this moment, the Dead King, who had been hanging aside, suddenly said, "Hey, you little ghosts, are you just hanging me here? ”
Lucius hurriedly bowed down and apologized to the deceased king: "I'm really sorry honorable king, I have a question I want to ask your majesty, and I hope your majesty can answer me a thing or two." ”
"What's your problem?" asked the Dead King, looking at Lucius carefully.
However, it was obvious that the momentum of the king of the dead could not oppress Lucius, so Lucius stepped forward and asked, "Dear Majesty, first of all, please forgive me for my offense, I am just a little curious, you should actually be able to leave here, why do you want to lie to my companion that you are sealed here?"
"What, wasn't it sealed?" Lucius' question surprised Noko, Christine, Ei, and even Li Hao.
Seeing that everyone was vigilant and looking at herself, the dark blue woman stared at Lucius for a long time, and finally sighed and said, "Okay, you're right, I really wasn't sealed by Li He, but I still can't leave here." ”
Seeing that Lucius was unmoved and looked at herself, the blue woman continued: "Actually, the reason is very simple, you should be able to guess, because I promised Li He that I would not go out to sabotage his plan." ”
Lucius nodded with satisfaction, and said to himself: "Sure enough, as the King of the Dead, you actually do not belong to the laws of the forest civilization, so you don't care about Li He destroying the civilization in the forest, in your opinion." No matter what civilization the forest is occupied, it doesn't matter to you?"
The woman who was transformed by the blue flame did not deny it, but admitted, "Not bad. As the dead, we were actually abandoned by civilization, and to put it nicely, we are undead, but in fact we are just a group of undead monsters. ”
Quietly listening to the blue woman's narration, Noko, Christine, and Shadow couldn't help but feel a little sad, and they could vaguely feel the pain and unwillingness of the deceased.
After a long time, Lucius stood up and said, "But you are not abandoned. You are still given life by the law, but your life forms are different. ”
The blue flames rose suddenly, and the wings behind the flame-incarnated woman spread. Her whole body became more enchanting in the flames, and her body under the dark blue flames seemed to have substance.
After the brilliant blue flame burned, when the flame gradually subsided, the woman who was originally wrapped in the dark blue flame disappeared. In its place was a formidable silver skeleton. Standing in the sky, looking down on Lucius and the others.
The woman's soft voice was gone, and the silver-white teeth of the skeleton kept opening and closing, making a hoarse voice: "You see? I'm actually just a monster, like the other dead here, here I am worshipped as a king, but when I leave here, I am just an ugly skeleton." ”
"So what? Do you have to live in lies? Do you forget that in that city up there. Are there four guys waiting for you, waiting for you to rescue them?"
Lucius stepped forward and questioned as if he were crazy. His words made the Dead King's face full of shock again, and his upper and lower silver-white teeth were wide open, as if they had been dislocated for a long time and could not be closed, and he looked at Lucius in a daze for a long time before the Dead King spoke: "You, how do you know?"
Hearing the shocked question of the King of the Dead, Lucius regained his composure, stretched out his hand and pressed it on his chest, saying, "It is the law of the forest that tells me." ”
"You, you, you ......" The Dead King stared at Lucius' chest in amazement, and through Lucius's palm, she saw and saw the piece of emerald green, filled with tranquility and peace, like a holy fairyland, as if a qiē strife and hustle and bustle could not be approached there.
I don't know how long it took, the King of the Dead came to his senses and looked at Lucius in surprise, the face that always wore a confident and calm smile, but was slightly immature: "Then, is that the resting place?"
Lucius didn't deny it, and nodded to the other again.
The King of the Dead saw Lucius nodding in acknowledgement, and suddenly said: "I see, no wonder you can know a qiē, it turns out that you have a resting place, and you can talk to the law of a qiē civilization, it seems that it is the law of the forest that hopes that you can seal Li He into a resting place?"
Although Li Hao was standing beside him, Lucius didn't seem to hide what he meant, and replied bluntly to the Dead King: "Vitivana, you are right, it is indeed the law of the forest that wants me to do that. ”
Without waiting for the king of the dead to come to his senses, Lucius continued: "Actually, there is no need for gods in the world, maybe without the domination of those gods, the world will become freer, and the creatures in the forest, including you and your people, should have the opportunity to control their own destiny, right?"
Vitivana, the King of the Dead, stared at Lucius quietly, and she had to admit that what Lucius said touched her very much, and that the freedom to be able to control her own destiny was what she had always longed for.
But after thinking about it, her expression darkened again, and she whispered: "Fate, how can it be controlled by each living being? ”
Lucius didn't continue to argue anything, nor did he try to convince Vitivana again, but just stood there slowly spreading his arms, taking a deep breath, and releasing the projection of the resting place.
In the blink of an eye, the projection of the resting place shrouded the entire square where the dead gathered, and everyone, including Vitivana, left the dim square in a blink of an eye, and was in a beautiful world like a flower scroll, and at this moment Vitivana was completely stunned.
Everyone and all the dead were lost in it, and then Lecius's voice resounded in the sky: "Fate may not be completely controlled by us, but when the law drives fate, our fate also pushes the law forward, complementing each other, this is the real and fair world, isn't it?"
Almost as Lucius spoke, a few people and many of the dead wandering among the green mountains and green waters, instantly felt as if they were in a wonderful world, and began to experience a strange life that did not belong to them, each life was almost completely different, as if they were reborn again and again.
And whenever someone is moved by a certain life and tries to make that life stop, they will be withdrawn from the picture-like world and returned to the dimly lit square of the dead.
With Noko, Christine, Ying and Li Hao all withdrawing, in the beautiful world, only Lucius and Vitivana stood looking at each other.
Vitevana glanced around, raised her arm and found that she had flesh and blood, she looked at Lucius with some emotion and said, "Is this a projection of the resting place? What a beautiful place, and now I understand that I should not be obsessed with controlling my fate, nor should I be completely subservient to fate, it is time to fight." ”
As she spoke, a smile appeared on Vitivana's now beautiful face, and she gently stroked her radiant and elastic skin, and the next moment her body gradually dissipated, and she left the world of resting place. (To be continued......)
