007 Falling Away (2-in-1)

At this time, inside the big pit, there is no longer a single human figure in sight.

The dense balls of flesh are crowded together and clustered to form a fleshy flower.

The fleshy tentacles of living creatures squirmed wildly, and as soon as the snake man fell, the tentacles suddenly bounced up, tied it directly, and then threw it into the core of the fleshy flower.

The snake man sank into the flesh flower, and the meat flower twitched slightly, secreting a gray-white liquid.

The liquid covered the body of the snake man who was pulled into, and the snake man's expression suddenly became dazed and empty, and he actually took the initiative to approach the core of the meat flower.

Snort.

Like a piece of red-hot iron, pressed with plastic film, half of the snake man's body instantly melted, and was plundered and absorbed by the core.

Several times like this, the flesh flower shrinks, forming a meat egg, like a huge heart, beating and undulating slightly.

At this time, there were only eight snake people left alive around.

The entire crypt was empty, and it was clear that all but the eight snake men were dead.

"Cheng... It worked? A snake man didn't dare to confirm himself.

"It's almost ripe! It's mine! It's mine! Only when I swallow it will I be truly successful. The tallest and most serpentine snake man looked down at the meat eggs in the pit, hissed, and then roared loudly.

There was no objection from the snake people, and all the snake people instead bent down in greeting at the tall snake man.

After a complex ritual transformation, the snake man's instinct to obey the strong has been deeply rooted in the bone marrow.

But at this moment, there was a roar outside.

Li Boyang walked in along the stairs with brisk steps.

"Okay guys, this is the first time we met, and I've closed all the entrances and exits for a good time."

"It's thanks to the guy out there who can't move anymore, and he's put a lot of effort into it."

"Although I promised to slaughter it and liberate it."

"But I didn't say when I was going to kill it, I'm really embarrassed."

"I think the later Watch Squad will be interested in it."

The tone is still indifferent, and it sounds extremely cold when it is obviously a hippie smile.

It seems that no matter how cruel and ruthless things are, they are as simple and calm to him as eating and drinking.

As his words fell, a shadowy shadow of waves floated behind him, and then swelled, enveloping the entire underground space.

The silver hair moved without wind, undulating up and down, as if it had been coated with a thin layer of fluorescent.

The scarlet light flickered in the center of Li Boyang's eyebrows.

In the next second, a dark red circle of light appeared from nothing, hanging behind his head.

The cold blue eyes gradually darkened, the spiral dark gold streamer flickered, and the blue became darker and darker, like the sea in the dark night.

An invisible roar suddenly rose, and the cruel and violent coercion slammed down without reason.

All the snake people were shocked at the same time, and fear was like weeds, and madness spread in their hearts.

"The superior is coerced?!"

"A vision of the tide?"

"That's not right."

"This is clearly a fish-man vision......

"You are the True Blood Awakener??!"

The snake man at the head of the snake man said silently.

Li Boyang glanced at the snake man with an indifferent expression and sneered softly.

In the world of Van Aida, true blood awakening is extremely rare, and it takes almost a hundred years to see a case.

On the contrary, it is more common for blood to run wild, and a few cases will pop up in ten or twenty years.

Of course, Li Boyang can't be a true blood awakening.

Since he came to this world, there has been an additional [bloodline??? 】。

The color is constantly changing from gray to white, and then from white to gray.

This made Li Boyang very, very surprised.

[Spirit Sword Species: Qi Sword] is strong enough, right? Even in the talent column, the talent of the [Spirit Sword Species] has been formed.

But this talent is gray, and when Li Boyang leaves the Tianwu Continent, he will be automatically deprived.

If Li Boyang didn't know that the upper limit of [Qi Sword] was limited, and he didn't know that [Qi Sword] breaking the three-star was the limit, eighty percent would think that the system swallowed his benefits...... However, the fact is that [Qi Sword] has been transformed into a system prop and reduced to [Eternal Shadow of the Edge +3], which is equivalent to a universal enchantment card, or the kind that can be used in every world.

The only problem is that the rank of [Shadow of the Edge] is too high after obtaining the plus three, and ordinary weapons and swords are ...... I can't afford any of them.

Even the [Fishman Double Dagger] in Li Boyang's hand can't.

After only a moment of blessing, a crack occurred, which frightened Li Boyang and almost suffocated.

If it weren't for the fact that the [Fishman Double Dagger] and the Fishman also have the ability to heal themselves, maybe this pair of magic daggers would have been destroyed by Li Boyang.

Shadow of the Edge +3...... It's very strong, but for some reason, it's become a bit chicken.

No matter how tough it is, it's a fart if you don't need it, Li Boyang is powerless to complain.

Look at the [bloodline??? in turn 】…… The font is gray and white.

What does this mean?

This shows that the [bloodline??? The development potential of ], if it does not deviate, it can completely surpass the [Spirit Sword Species: Qi Sword]!

It can also be explained that the world of Van Aida is definitely not as warm and quiet as it seems on the surface, and the powerhouses who destroy the world are probably not too few in this world.

An ordinary bloodline awakener, who has not even been sublimated, directly has the possibility of surpassing the three stars of destruction?!

How could a world that could accommodate such a powerful existence be an ordinary small world?

No matter how much I think about it, it doesn't feel normal.

Among them, what is even more abnormal should be Li Boyang's predecessor.

Before the bloodline was awakened, Li Boyang's predecessor before his advent was simply like Li Boyang's doppelganger, and his behavior, logic, and thoughts were incomparably compatible with Li Boyang.

But when the bloodline awakened, the predecessor changed instantly.

Becoming a gambler and an alcoholic.

The heart has become weaker and more hopeless.

Is this really just a matter of the predecessor?

Li Boyang was quick to deny this.

The power of the bloodline, as long as it is successfully awakened, can seem to easily obtain all kinds of great powers, and can even surpass the three stars of destruction.

But!

Any gift given by fate has already been secretly marked with a price.

The more powerful the power contained in the bloodline, the more inevitable the possibility of getting out of control.

If it's not real blood, it's almost a certainty.

Part of the reason why the predecessor gave up on himself was that he was trapped by the Owen family, but part of the reason was because he knew very well that he was not true blood, let alone normal blood awakening, but constantly losing self-control - mad blood awakening!

The taste of mad blood awakening is not pleasant.

Even if Li Boyang has a [precision] talent, under the delicate emotional micro-manipulation, he can almost perfectly avoid the occurrence of madness out of control.

Yes, Li Boyang will not lose control because of madness, but the taste of madness will inevitably continue to sweep over his heart.

Angry, cruel and furious, eager to destroy everything in sight.

Even if Li Boyang can hold it down, he really can't stand it.

In case if you are forced to be forced for a long time, what kind of xx personality is born......

One looks like it's under control, but the other side goes crazy unscrupulously...... That made Li Boyang feel a headache.

As a last resort, Li Boyang could only secretly become a bounty hunter.

In just one month, he has emerged, and with several successful assassinations, he has gone from being an E-level hunter to a B-level hunter.

Of course, this is not that Li Boyang is too strong, but that the [Hanging Curtain Hidden Star] is too strong, with the presence of [Hanging Curtain Hidden Star], coupled with the assistance of [Precision] talent, Li Boyang can easily become a killer king even if he is weak.

Under the cover of the [Hidden Star], no one could have imagined that the famous killer [Black Blade] was not even a sublimator.

Just a trender.

Of course, Li Boyang went to be a bounty hunter for fun, but definitely for a purpose.

On the one hand, it is to release the uncontrollable layers of anger in the madness, and on the other hand, it is to find enough suitable targets to cast the [Plunder Card], in order to solve the various problems of the madness.

Now, he made the right choice.

-------------------------------------

Eight o'clock in the evening.

Capital.

Torrential rain poured down.

The rain the size of beans hit the ground and splashed countless splashes.

The thunder was low, the lightning flashed, and the air pressure was so low that it was difficult to breathe.

A jade-like hand, lightly holding the black chess piece, fell lightly and heavily.

"Slay the dragon."

The voice is hoarse and vicissitudes, but it has a bit of undeniable domineering.

The person sitting on the opposite side of the chessboard grabbed his black and white hair, "You are ruthless enough to play chess, leaving no way out?" Aren't you afraid of being overturned? ”

"It doesn't matter, I didn't think about playing chess anyway."

"It's you deadlift."

The man on the other side shrugged, "You have a high status, I want to talk to you about something, avoid those annoying old men in the Elder Pavilion, I have to find a reason, right?" ”

"Otherwise, if those old men make a fuss, you will come and play chess with me?"

"No, it won't."

“…… I'll just say it. The man on the other side pushed his glasses on the bridge of his nose and smiled self-deprecatingly.

He looked like he was in his thirties and in his early forties.

The black and white hair was draped over the shoulders, and the appearance was flat, squinting and empty-eyed, and the chin was raised, arrogant and mocking.

"Forget it, I didn't really call you to play chess anyway... Something happened to the Ethereal Cult, and I want your nephew to help. ”

The tone was lazy, as if it wasn't something important.

"Huh? The seal of the dark side is shaken? ”

"No, it's just that a trash fish should have snuck over."

"If it's just trash fish, why bother...... Endless? ”

"Dr. Xu, I call you Doctor, I think you know better than anyone that he is in a special period, and the fewer shots the better... If he wants to have a problem, it will be more serious than the problem of the Ethereal Spirit Sect. ”

The voice is cold, and the domineering is still there.

Instead, Dr. Xu chuckled, he had already seen through the truth of this person's domineering, and said lightly: "The royal family wants to use him, and the Elder Pavilion also wants to use him, I have no objection to this." ”

"It's not a chance for him to grow... Don't give it to you, do you? ”

"No matter what, he is a dragon vein, he wants to fight, no matter how many people below you covet the position you are sitting in, they can't compete."

"Not to mention, he also has your royal blood."

"Look at him, don't let him grow, it's called caring and caring, are you kidding me? …… My dear majesty. ”

When the man on the opposite side heard this, he was silent for a moment, and then suddenly burst out, stretched out his hand and lifted it violently, the chessboard flew over, and the chess pieces scattered.

The flying chess pieces, hitting the ground and making a dense crackling sound, were all suppressed by the sound of the rainstorm outside.

Then he stood up and looked down at Dr. Xu, who was still mocking, with anger in his eyes and a slight movement of the corners of his mouth, as if he wanted to speak.

The ring worn by the little finger of his right hand suddenly let out a piercing buzz, and as soon as the humming stopped, a scarlet light suddenly lit up.

The two of them changed color in unison.

Attention was instantly fixed on the ring.

I saw that the light was getting redder and redder, so red that it was almost dripping blood, and there was a faint tendency to blacken.

After a few moments, a layer of black glow filled the area around the red light.

The black mang was like a living thing, constantly expanding outward, but the red light was even more stubborn, and it was hard to press the black mang.

After about a stick of incense, the glow of the red gem on the ring faded.

From beginning to end, the light was never completely black.

"How can you ......?" the man standing couldn't help but mutter, not seeming to believe what he was seeing.

Dr. Xu laughed, "Look at you, what's the use of having so many scruples?" There is a new True Blood Awakened Person, and the True Blood Pressure Crazy Blood looks at this light, not even under the endless. ”

"It turns out that everything you did was in vain."

After a pause, Dr. Xu said softly, "You don't want him to grow up, but he won't listen to you, my majesty." ”

A cold snort.

More or less annoyed, embarrassed and angry.

The man standing behind his hands seemed to not want to see the ring on his finger again.

"You want to borrow someone, I agreed."

"But you'll have to wait until he graduates."

After a pause, he added, "It's not my order to let people go to the school, it's the idea of that god." ”

"I don't really believe what the stick said, but I haven't missed it so far."

"Would you rather believe in it than believe in it?" Dr. Xu waved his hand, and the scattered chess pieces and the fallen chessboard, as if going back in time, instantly returned to their original state, he looked down at the unfinished chess game on the chessboard, and asked without raising his head.

“…… It's better for him to go to the dark side than to stay in the Ming world...... Although I don't like him, at least I won't deliberately harm him, but the elders of the Elder Pavilion are immortal, but I can't say for sure. ”

When the man had finished speaking, he turned and walked away, his robe fluttering and his robe making a whirl.

Dr. Xu raised his eyes and glanced at it, and the mockery on the corner of his mouth could not be suppressed.

If you pay a little attention, as for deliberately wearing that ring on your little finger?

Do you really think that the so-called emperor is still the co-lord of the world as in the past?

If it weren't for someone to help suppress the dark side, the so-called emperor would just be a joke.

Self-serving, moody, selfish...... If it weren't for the means, he still cared about the face of the emperor's family and didn't make a mistake, and he still had a few bottom lines, his own ability was still outstanding, and he knew what was good or bad, but he was afraid that he would have been replaced a long time ago.

The fact that the Gewu Academy and the Elders' Pavilion joined forces to force the emperor to abdicate has not happened in the past.

The royal side is not the biggest problem, what they are most afraid of is nothing more than [Dragon Vein is the Emperor].

They are the ones who want someone to die, and they are the ones who don't want someone to die the least.

Instead, it's the Elders' Cabinet.

Dr. Xu is hard to grasp.

Because the staff of the Elders' Pavilion is too mixed.

The needs are fundamentally different from royal.

It is also divided into upper and lower courts.

The seven elders of the House of Lords are re-elected every five years and can be re-elected up to three times.

The forty-nine cabinet elders in the lower house also change every five years, and the ranking of the cabinet elders is either promoted, or declined, or directly out, or new people join.

The term of office of the cabinet is a maximum of 10 years.

But in history, the longest-reigning elder is only eight years.

In the final analysis, it is because the interests of the elders of the lower house are not consistent.

Forty-nine elders.

Civilians make up only one-fifth; The children of rich families also account for only one-fifth; The Maison occupies three-fifths!

Look up again.

Of the elder seats in the upper house of the Elders' Pavilion, there are four that have been occupied by the family for a long time, and only three are left to give civilians a chance.

Everything doesn't seem complicated, it's nothing more than a political conflict between the family faction and the commoner faction.

As a result, it is difficult to unify the political discussions of the Elders' Pavilion, making it difficult for outsiders to grasp the pulse of the Elders' Pavilion.

But this is not the case.

The hidden benefits of the Elders' Pavilion are enough to break all the shackles of identity, shatter the good and evil of human nature, and cause countless incidents.

Dr. Xu sighed, picked up a white piece in his hand, lit the chessboard, and broke the dragon slaying game on the opposite side, and then got up, swayed to the window, and looked at the rainstorm outside, slightly distracted.

As the director of the Gewu Academy, he was not interested in politics.

To put it mildly, when he saw the people in the Elders' House in the past, he would only feel a toothache, and he didn't want to go up to meet and communicate at all.

The royal side is slightly better, after all, there are not many royal rights left, and its symbolism is greater than the actual meaning.

Even if an emperor is unwilling and unwilling, most of the time, he can still only hold his breath.

Dr. Xu occasionally said a few words to him, after all, there are some things, with the royal side, it is much easier to achieve the goal.

It's just that every time I communicate with the royal family, Dr. Xu will feel a little weird, and I feel that something is wrong.

Maybe it's because someone thousands of years ago obviously had that ability, but he didn't completely overthrow the feudal dynasty, and this kind of inexplicable historical mystery crossed his heart, which made him uncomfortable.

So when I saw the royal people, I didn't feel reverence, but only grotesque.

Dr. Xu looked out the window, his eyes reflecting the torrential rain, gradually dimming, and a circle of metallic silver light flickered from the depths of his eyes.

In his eyes, the world outside the window completely changed in the blink of an eye.

The whole world darkened in an instant.

Only the dense gray and white lines, intertwined and criss-crossed, enveloped the entire sky.

The strange and indecipherable intricate inscriptions are constantly twisted, contracted, hidden, and expanded along the direction of the gray and white lines.

Prayer, despair, laughter, happiness, cruelty, love...... Countless emotions stirred up, converging into overlapping and looming sophistication.

The voice is indescribable, like a man and not a man, like a woman and not a woman, and not old and not young is creepy, but I can't help but get closer and want to listen carefully.

It's like the deepest abyss seducing people's souls.

Looking at the most dense and vivid points of the subtle sounds, lines and words, the lower part is precisely the location of the Great Xia Elder Pavilion.

The indistinguishable gray-white pillars of light poured down from one of the densest points in the sky, like torrents and waterfalls.

Flood the Elders' Pavilion in it.

"That's a lot of money."

"No matter how many times I watch it, it's so shocking."

"It's a pity that this set of rituals is getting more and more wrong."

"Isn't that what you expected?"

With thoughts repeated, Dr. Xu closed his eyes.

With the entire Great Xia as the chess game, with the House of Elders as the center, this huge and magnificent and strange ritual was established by pouring the sky.

Being enshrined in such a ritual, immortality is no longer illusory, as long as you sit in the position of the Seven Elders forever, there is such a possibility.

Maybe the seven elders in the past didn't know about it, but with the development of time, the fusion of technology and transcendence, the secret will eventually cease to be a secret.

In this case, if the current seven elders don't know, it would be a strange thing.

If they could, probably no elder would want to step down from the position of elder.

Strength and Immortality...... As long as you sit in the position of elder, everything is at your fingertips.

Who still wants to come down.

Unavoidably, the Gewuyuan, which had always taken a neutral route, could only lean slightly towards the royal family, putting pressure on the Elders' Pavilion and forcing the Elders' Pavilion to change its term normally.

Dr. Xu was very curious about the things that the Elder Pavilion could live forever and studied a lot.

Personally, he didn't feel that the Elders' Pavilion was a so-called offering to prolong life.

This is too simplistic and does not conform to the laws of sadhana.

The sadhana was established to achieve it.

Whether this process of realization is the use of laws, the contact with evil gods, the mystery, the tracing of bloodlines, or something else.

Praying for → → the → response → realized, and the equation of this sadhana will never change.

At best, it shortens a process, or grows a process.

The beginning of the prayer of the huge ritual that enveloped Bactria should be the mood swings of all the people living in it, and it is also the source of the overlapping and strange sounds.

And the gray lines and mysterious words are the guide, the channel, and the process of tracking.

So here's the problem.

Prayers and deeds have been completed, but what is the price to pay?

Is the existence that responds to prayer and fulfills its result a law or a deity?

The particularity of the Elders' Pavilion is the process in the end... Or is it the result?

……

Dr. Xu was exhausted by this.

He is not worried about the sky, let alone the country and the people, purely because he can't think of a reason.

I can't satisfy my curiosity.

Just when he racked his brains and couldn't figure it out.

According to the prophecy of the last man who remained, a princess was married to the royal family.

With this marriage, a natural dragon vein was born.

Dr. Xu suddenly guessed the clue.

At that time, he had no intention of being in power, but was only obsessed with technology, and his attitude immediately changed 180 degrees.

He began to protect the son of the dragon vein, consciously or unconsciously, trying to change the fate that had already been set.

It's like the one from the past, on the chessboard forged by history, far away.
