Chapter 962: The Road Back to Hometown Is Not Easy
The qiΔ in front of me seemed to be blood-colored, which made the spirit tense.
The Psychic Warlock shook his head, and the sensations in his body made him more awake, and the sharp pain of pins and needles rushed into his mind from somewhere that he couldn't explain, and he was also slightly happy.
It's good to have feelings, to have pain, to at least prove that you're alive, that you still have your body, and that you can think.
And being able to think is the greatest asset for a psychic warlock.
He blinked reluctantly to look around, only to feel a faint dark red. It wasn't until his vision finally turned slowly that he could barely see something similar to a landscape, and the blurred vision gradually focused, and the blood color became profound, and the empty Cheng dΓΉ was closer to the sky, but the light and darkness were uncertain, and from time to time there were rays of light passing by, similar to meteors.
Slightly restrained his spirit, he reluctantly began to use his strength The feeling of being almost empty was not good, and even the spiritual power of the spirit absorbing monster hatchling body had been consumed. As for the divine power, there is no trace left in order to offset the energy turbulence in that space, as well as the passage through the transfer of that space, in that kind of crisis, no one will not go all out, and it is not surprising that the power is exhausted.
There are about two dozen psionic points left......
He slowly condensed his ability, and the amplification showed a vitality technique.
Although the level is not high, the psychic ability is always very useful, and this psychic ability can add some extra vitality to the manifester itself, so the pain has not subsided. But Edward could already feel his energy regain and was finally able to get back on his feet.
"It's so miserable......"
After carefully observing his surroundings and himself, he couldn't help but mutter, his left hand had broken off at the elbow. The flesh was burned into ugly char by the energy, covering the wound, and the right half of the body was also a blur of flesh, and the black robe that had accompanied the psychic sorcerer was now completely ruined, except for a small half of the cloth, still hanging from his shoulders.
He sighed and slowly ripped off the cloth on his right. Tear off one to wrap around the arm, and wrap the rest around the waist to protect the wound at the same time. It also barely covers the body.
The surrounding area was empty, and the sky was as red as fire reflected by the falling meteors, and the earth was as soft as fine sand beneath his feet, but it was jet black. and the occasional bone fragment dotted in between. It makes it look more like the ashes of an unknown creature. At the far end of his line of sight, something shrouded in a dark red, towering into the sky, a gray-reddish-brown mountain range that towered majestically and tall beyond the limits of a building, and the unfathomable ravines on the ground formed a magnificent but strange, vicious but grand, incredibly magnificent scene in front of him. An air distortion effect caused by the high temperature made the ground look shaky. The jagged peaks and Gobi in the distance, like curved horns, have a certain sense of activity and unreality.
Where is this?
And most importantly, where did Ariel go?
sighed. His gaze swept over the ground, and he began to move along the rough marks of the sand, a shallow furrow that began to stretch from around him into the distance, a very unnatural gully. And where he was originally around, the vague sand reflected the form of a person.
So, Edward slowly picked up his pace.
There was no blood in the trail, so Ariel wouldn't have been too badly injured, at least healed...... There was an occasional wind blowing around, not loud, but it was enough to push the gravel, so the drag marks did not take long to form, and there were no traces of any footprints, or because this thing was not walking, but if it was a very powerful being, it would be impossible to drag people to move.
Flying beasts?
No, judging by the environment, this thing is eighty percent a demon. Moreover, it is likely to be a quasai demon or a little devil, and given that it did not eat in place, there are two possible scenarios. If it is a quasai demon, then there is a more powerful existence in the vicinity, and it is worried that the prey will be snatched away, so it leaves a part of the prey and takes away the other part that seems to be better, and if it is a small devil, then there are their companions nearby.
So either one, it means you have to catch up.
The dry sand slowly becomes sharp and piercing under the feet, and the trail of drag is carried from one dune to another, and the environment here is actually similar to that of the desert, and the endless similarity of the scenery can confuse many details, such as the height of the terrain. Even the distance. There is only one person's figure, which is particularly deep in this Gobi, like a silhouette.
Edward stopped when his pace grew from fast to slow, and his thirst and fatigue had begun to rise.
It wasn't that I needed to rest, but that I saw the striking white in the sand at the end of the view.
He frowned.
The Psychic Warlock's vision is far from that of a mortal, so it doesn't take a second look to confirm that familiar form...... But his eyesight was enough for him to suppress the urge to rush up, and unlike the fine sand of the wind and sand elsewhere, the soil on this slope seemed to be softer and churning.
Bad tricks.
A moment later, with a slight thud, a man's head gradually arched out of the sand......
It should be said that it is humanoid, the eyes that are at least twice as large as ordinary people protrude beyond the sockets, and the flickering luster seems to divide them into dozens of sides, a long scarlet tongue sticks out from the pointed mouth, licking the sand from the eyes from time to time, and then two thin hands.
But what was pulled out of the sand was no longer human, but a fat worm with black bristles that covered most of his body, and then formed a shiny red abdomen behind it, the skin and membrane were swollen and dirty, and four arthropods protruded crookedly from above, in addition to a pair of translucent wings like flies, which immediately fanned and buzzed and dragged it into the air.
He cursed hoarsely, and his two compound eyes glanced forward in turn, as if to confirm something, but quickly gave up and buzzed towards the people on the ground.
Then there seemed to be a bang.
It seemed to be such a voice, but in fact, the monster felt like the world was spinning before it could hear it clearly. I plunged headlong into the sand, fluttering like a headless fly, and finally crawled out of the pile of dust. Raising his head and looking at the person in front of him, the other party was standing there, a short sword in his hand against the door of his head.
"Who are you!" cried the monster, "for daring to attack the faithful servants of the great Lord of Barntulas, if you die, the Lord will soon burn you to ashes with the fire of hell!" Immediately, his voice rose an octave: "Don't kill me! Don't kill me! Hero, don't kill me!"
Although it was close, the fly-like compound eyes were enough for him to recognize the short sword, which was supposed to be his weapon at his waist. It would have been.
"What is this place? The human voice came out in a slow, deep voice, and he was not familiar with the language of purgatory,
"This is ......" the monster's two eyes kept rolling. But after a little hesitation, he fell into bad luck, and another piece of flesh flew out of his head, carrying green plasma, so he immediately screamed fluently: "I...... Got it. Here it is. This is the land of chaos! the domain of Lord Bahnturas!"
In fact, this answer is equivalent to saying nothing, in the lower interface, especially the abyss, any demon with power and some subordinates can claim to be the sovereign, and if the 'sovereign' of the entire lower realm is counted, I am afraid that there are more than a nest of ants. So the monster's pointed mouth smacked twice, as if it was about to say something, but the other party didn't seem to ask. "Hand over all your belongings and take them out one by one. β
A scabbard made of monster skin. It was possible to attach a sharp spell to the short sword, a belt with a faint amount of magic, and an ordinary ring, and this was all the monster had on it, and he took it out without hesitation. Life is more important than treasure, that's a fact that smart guys know. And the guy in front of him who looks like a human is far from being able to play tricks casually!
Why didn't I think of this when I dragged away that smelling positive energy and seemed to be delicious from his side just now?
The monster secretly regretted it, but he was quickly relieved, at least the other party seemed to be a newcomer, so he would definitely get the benefit as long as he showed them the way, but he could also take them to the nearby camp, maybe he could get some benefits from the merchants there......
The thoughts flickered for a moment, but immediately turned into darkness with a soft 'poof' sound, and the dagger stabbed into the skull, stirring without hesitation, and the demon's body immediately burned and turned to ashes, and then slammed away The laws of the plane carried the evil soul to the River Styx, or there might be something to tell him a truth he didn't know, never to play a boring lie in front of a psychic warlock, but a telepath.
Edward threw down the dagger in his hand and walked over to Ariel to take a closer look.
"Whatever the god's blessing......" he muttered, it seemed that the Blazing Divine Servant was not in any danger, although her face was pale and her body was covered with a lot of sand, she was not physically harmed, her breathing was weak and even, as if she had just fainted.
After a moment's hesitation, Edward picked up the dagger, cut two cuts from her white robe, twisted her into ropes, tied her to his chest and abdomen, and walked towards the gathering place of the demon's memory.
Admittedly, a place full of monsters may be more dangerous, but it is still much better than in this desert Gobi, at least it is still possible to get water and food
......
"Well, well, of course I can sell you something, but only if you have something to exchange, it's the only truth in the multiverse that no one can violate. The person who made the voice raised his eyelids, and his dull eyes seemed to glance at the human in front of him, but he didn't make a sound until much later.
This tawny acanthous was more of a giant lizard than a person. The obvious flippers and claws on his broad hands and feet, and the two narrow black orifices that replaced his nose on his flat yellow face hissed and whispered with a disgusting stench.
Humanity can only be silent.
After a two-kilometer trek on the arid Gobi, he had little interest in talking nonsense. What's more, the thing in front of him is also the only one in this camp who is willing to talk to him.
"I needed a jug of clean water. and a place to rest without being disturbed. β
The Psychic Warlock said. He reached out and handed over the jeweled ring, and took the belt along with the dagger and the magic scabbard. But this time, the other party didn't seem to even have the interest in raising his eyes: "Who do you think I am? What is the meaning of these things that can only be used to fool those little devils? Do you know how many times more valuable a pot of water is more valuable than these broken copper and iron here?"
"I thought the Gisyankees had an appreciation for magical weapons that no one else had. β
The Gisyankees, of course, have little appreciation, although they do have a bit of a small knowledge of magical weapons, and the most important thing these notorious plane bandits can do is to fill their arsenals with guΓ² raids and plunder, and to create all kinds of weapons of war.
But this little hype seems to have played a role. The lizard-like face moved, and he reached out and threw a small clay vase and a wooden sign to Edward: "The third single room of the third cart in the back, but we are about to leave for the flow of time." If you are not afraid of death, you can sleep until that time. β
The demons' so-called camp is actually made up of more than a dozen vehicles, similar to a caravanserais. And now they're almost on their way. Edward didn't mind following them, though. Anyway, as long as he has a few hours of sleep, his strength can be restored to most of it, and when the time comes, he will be able to go anywhere with his own strength.
As for what that flow of time was, he was not even interested in asking.
The so-called single room is full of the malice of the lower world, in fact, it is just a small room separated by a few wooden planks in a car, less than five feet wide and just over three feet high, and can barely accommodate one person to lie down. And there's a greasy, disgusting smell everywhere.
But it's nothing. At least I got an enclosed space of my own, unlike the unlucky ones who crowded outside. There is not even a place to lie down.
Carefully place Ariel in a corner so that she doesn't touch anything. He reluctantly sat down cross-legged, took the water bottle and took a sip. But he couldn't help but shake.
The two battles with several gods had already exhausted him to the extreme, and the injuries in his body were even more serious...... Although it didn't seem so bad on the surface, in fact, most of it was due to self-hypnosis, and once his mind relaxed, he felt all his muscles ache and tingle, as if he was about to fall apart.
Still, he had to hold on, dampening a small piece of cloth and gently wiping Ariel's lips to soak up some moisture from the already dry flaps.
This was the best method he could think of at the moment, and fortunately, it worked, and in a moment, the girl had opened her eyes slightly and looked at him. "I ...... It doesn't matter anymore, it's just that I don't have any power and can't move. She whispered, "What the hell is this place?"
Her face was pale, and her voice was weak and hoarse, but it was sound enough to make the psychic warlock jump:
"You, wait...... Elena?"
"Yes. The girl was stunned for a moment, and then showed a weak smile: "It's amazing, you can recognize it at once...... Not. β
The girl's eyes widened suddenly, because the man had already lowered his head, and suddenly blocked her with his lips, and Edward greedily hugged her tightly, and kissed her hard, as if to melt her with the warmth of his lips and tongue.
......
After a long time, the entangled lips and tongues finally separated.
Edward's eyes widened, carefully observing the face in front of him, the girl's pale face was dyed with a delicate red because of the lingering moment, delicate and delicate, but those blue eyes, and that slightly weak aura, were obviously very different from the Blazing Sky Divine Servant.
Elena.
This unexpected joy made the psychiocer's mind rattle, but for a moment he didn't know how to ask a question. "What the hell is this ......"
"It's because ...... Ariel's soul has been greatly damaged......" Gasping softly, the girl spoke softly, "She's been overdrawing her strength to protect us, probably ...... Because of this, there was a huge damage to the soul, so ...... She fell asleep for a moment. β
"Is that so?" Edward sighed.
If I had known this was the case......
"You want to deliberately drain her power?"
Of course, it is impossible for Edward to do even the slightest thing that could damage Elena until he knows whether or not Iriel will use his power to cause attrition, so even if he knows that method, it may not be useful.
"How do you know about her?"
"I probably know a little bit about what she knows,"
"I'm tired, can I sleep for a while?"
A finger was pinpointed at the tip of the silver blade, before the latter silently stabbed into his body. Then he turned around to avoid a sneak attack from behind. With a grasp of the left hand, the person flew straight up, and the female Gisyankees, who had not yet figured out that their spiritual temptation had failed, were caught off guard and had a close contact, of course, whether that flat face could arouse the interest of the demon, others did not know, but judging from the loud "boom" of the two heads, it may be difficult for them to have any good feelings. (To be continued......)
