Chapter 137: The so-called magic is used to describe this kind of thing (5k)
[Your destiny rises upwards into the vast sky, and Aliana's destiny sinks to the earth where people are raised. γ
Seeing this scene, the already hearty smile on Rutgers's face became more sincere and bright.
The ritual he prepared for promotion was a nest of three rings and three rings, and the base of the ring that made up the spiral sword was completely derived from the knowledge of previous lives, and there was no way to reflect it at all.
The spiral sword not only serves as a link between one's own cognition and expression of the world, but also a symbol of the transition to death and life.
At this time, while the spiral sword was silently rotating in the magic book on his side, Rogers also guessed the activation interval of this [Weighing Bonus], and its cooldown seemed to be much longer than that of the [Time Stop Bonus].
"Confinement."
As Rogers' words of urging his true name and the blessing of strong luck fell, the figures of Alina and the Shadow Demon fell into a situation where they could not move.
"So you've been chattering all the time, instead of turning around and running like you used to, just to wait for this moment......" There was surprise between Alia's eyebrows, but they didn't seem to be rich, as if she was waiting for the unexpected to appear.
Anxiety appeared on the face of the Shadow Demon, and when it was about to open its mouth to say something, it uncontrollably dissipated into an illusion and was forced to return to the dreamcatcher.
"I won't trip over the same place twice again, and that's the biggest achievement I've ever achieved in my promotion."
Rogers leaned in front of Alina, he carefully looked at the other party with a surprised expression, the smile on his face did not decrease, and the words on his mouth did not stop:
"That's what I want to see, this surprised expression, hey, hey, hey."
According to the experience of playing games in his previous life, the advantage he has is not a numerical value, but a mechanic, so instead of looking for opportunities in the escape that is likely to be overtaken, it is better to defend and counterattack directly.
The launch of the first [Weighing Bonus] and the appearance of the second Shadow Demon were all because of poor information that Elena was not able to make Alina succeed, but now, without the blessing of fate, he doesn't think that Alina can still come up with the hole cards that will turn the tables again.
Even if the Shadow Demon jumped out again after a while, he would definitely be able to restrain him in time if he was on guard.
Just as he was about to avenge his long-term revenge, Alina's snow-white eyelashes stirred slightly, and her eyes revealed a faint discomfort and pain.
Seeing this, Rogers was about to pull out the cowhide rope again, but he was only imprisoning and not applying any real damage to the attack.
Could it be the backlash of fate? Judging by the description in the tooltip, it is indeed possible that Alina will be doomed like herself......
"It's a little uncomfortable." There was a rare look of frustration on Alina's face, and she spoke in a very soft tone.
"Ahh......h
"When did you learn such a despicable trick of deception?"
He wanted to continue to imprison the other party again, but after feeling that the atmosphere that had been accumulated for a long time seemed to be dissipated, he asked in a tone of emotion.
"Who do you suppose I learned from?" Alina whispered in Rutgers' ear, and then she continued, "And it's a little uncomfortable indeed......
After a moment of silence, Alina directly said that she would take Rufia to the trial to find more opportunities to improve her strength, and after leaving the dreamcatcher net for Rogers, she led Rufia straight away.
Looking down at the dreamcatcher in his hand, Rogus walked to the wooden bench next to him and sat down, a little puzzled by Alina's reaction.
"You hate Mom very much...... Alina? β
A young girl's voice came from the dreamcatcher, and she asked in a calm tone that was very similar to Alina's daily life.
"Why do you ask?" Rogers lowered his eyes to the dreamcatcher and asked back in a strange voice.
"I can feel that you hate fate, but at the same time you hate fate, you always want to try to subdue fate, control fate, and use fate.
"People can disguise themselves and hide themselves through performances, but people often reveal their true selves in performances.
"Are your actions and words really just a whim? Or is Alina a symbol of sorts, trying to prove something?
"She can keep up all night to squeeze her energy, she can pause her studies to catch up with you, and she can even tolerate Alice's shameless existence.
"But what was your first reaction when you saw Alina after your achievement? Want to prove your well-planned power through her?
"When you were running away alone to do something dangerous, did you think about what she would think about your situation?
"Before you do something, you always don't tell Alina the whole picture, she watches you act again and again, worries about your safety again and again, but tries to trust you again and again, and does her best to do what you give her.
"Also, she is also afraid that she will find out what she counts in front of you, you really succeeded, she could not have predicted your fate in the first place, and after your ritual, she now even involves your interaction with her, the future that was already vague and difficult to explore, has completely become completely unknown.
"The desire for control that was born of her fear, and which can be grasped a little, has also completely dissipated because of your achievements.
"Do you think she's just going to frolic with you as usual?"
Hearing the Shadow Demon ask questions one after another, Rogess's eyes slowly closed, and he asked again in an equally flat tone, "Is this why she kept you?" β
"It's not! She left me to make up for your uneasiness! Anyway, according to your nature, you will definitely try to make a pact with me and keep me under your control!
"I really deserve to be a sage with the face of a demon king! Until this time, she was still thinking and thinking about Lide, and it was this disgusting appearance that made Alina feel more and more scared! β
The Shadow Demon's tone seemed to become particularly angry, and the entire dreamcatcher became trembling as a result.
"Ah...... I never expected to be as arrogant as she would be afraid, but if you confide in me the thoughts she has been burying in her heart like this, will she really not be disgusted? Rogers spoke inexplicably, and seeing that there was no movement from the dreamcatcher for a long time, he continued to ask:
"Then will you obey her and make a pact with me, and listen to me in the future?"
Hearing this, the tremor of the dreamcatcher net that was tightly held in Rogers' hand was far more violent than Fang Cai, and after a while, the echo of gritting teeth came again: "I will." β
The [Liqi Bonus] was launched, and this shadow demon was also branded with an indelible mark.
"Okay, tell me about her." Rogers let out a cloudy breath and leaned back in his chair.
For this shadow demon, after he saw the other party for the first time and felt the breath of the same origin, he did not have the slightest cordiality, but resisted from the bottom of his heart.
At the end of the day, it was indeed a sense of unease, a situation that came from around him and was completely beyond his control, something he was extremely unhappy to see.
But as the Shadow Demon said, the severity of Alina's uneasiness due to herself is probably not much weaker.
"Alina is not a fate you need to fight against, not from the moment you meet, she is different from the saint you have to watch over from time to time......"
After being silent for a while, the Shadow Demon didn't say much about Alina herself, but instead said a lot of her own thoughts.
β¦β¦
"One of the greatest sources of suffering in life is trying to change others, as if you are too eager to be happy, and that pain will come out of the deepest part of your heart.
"So I never have too many expectations, but when I encounter difficulties, I hope to have the ability to control my own drift."
Rogus walked on a cane in the cave, dreamcatcher nets tied around his waist with a cow belt, and spoke slowly with the shadow demon at his side covered by hidden runes.
Listening to the Shadow Demon's words for a long time, he also figured out the other party's intentions, just like the previous Shadow Demon, trying to completely reshape his concept of someone.
"I'm just a kid who hasn't been born for a few days, and I can't understand these complicated things, okay, let's find a monster quickly, don't you just want to test my abilities?" The Shadow Demon glanced slightly in Rogers' direction and said lukewarmly.
Rogers shrugged slightly, noncommittal, his gaze scanning the scene around him, trying to find a switch to some battle trial.
[Redf has cast a detection spell on you, and is trying to find your current location.] γ
The prompt box that suddenly popped up in front of him made his steps pause, and then the corners of his mouth pouted as if he had met a smile like good luck, and now he was looking for something to exercise.
"It's right here, it's just spacious, we'll wait for some guests." Rogus stopped, tilting his head to the shadow beside him.
The Shadow Demon didn't ask why, and obediently stayed where he was.
Half an hour later, when Rogers was a little impatient, five figures in linen cloaks and wooden masks walked briskly to the sound of footsteps echoing through the cavern.
When Rogers stroked the magic guide book with his left hand, and tried to use the detection runes engraved on it to try to see through the faces of the people in front of him, he found that he was unexpectedly blocked by the masks, and he could only slightly perceive that the personalities of these people were all in the silver middle level.
"A few people who are in a hurry, like they're coming to me? What's the matter? He asked the five people in front of him in a gentle voice without hurry.
"Rutgers Breed, why don't you join forces with the elites of the Three Sages School? It's really making us wait. β
A hoarse voice came from under the mask of the leader, and when he saw Rogers's calm and breezy demeanor, he was not interested in replying, and his tone was full of malice:
"Oh, arrogant fellow, do you know what kind of being you've provoked?"
Rogers was slightly stunned when he heard this question, and asked back in confusion, "What did I provoke?" β
This is really a good question, and it stopped him directly, after all, there are too many people who have a bad feeling for him, and even want to cut him off directly.
"I won't talk nonsense, we don't want to kill you, we just want to make you suffer a little, and then imprint a few words of warning into your spirit."
A burst of flame rose from the palm of the leader, and with a wave of his hand, he slammed towards Rogers.
"Is it because you don't want to expose your school?" Rogers raised his hand and rubbed his chin, and the faint flame that was coming straight at him immediately turned into a MΓΆbius ring around him, and then gradually drifted away.
For him, there was no need to store this level of magic power as a counterattack.
The leader didn't seem to expect his offensive to be defused so easily, and there was a hint of hesitation between his movements, and then he gritted his teeth and shouted: "Let's go together, this is just a kid who has only been in contact with magic for more than a year, let's restrain him as soon as possible to avoid accidents." β
As soon as the order was finished, the five torrents of magic with various elements rushed towards the direction of Rogers, and the light emitted by them made the cave extremely bright for a while.
However, as the situation was, no matter how much magic power the five people on the other side wielded, the moment they got close to Rogers, all of them would be out of their control.
"Magic is used to describe this kind of thing." Rogers looked at the operation of the few people in front of him, shook his head and sighed slightly, and then calmly confided a word:
"Get on your knees."
In an instant, the ground under the feet of the five people became extremely smooth, and while they couldn't help but lean forward, the rich wind element also manipulated their movements, causing them to turn into kneeling one by one, slamming their heads on the ground, bringing a rather neat thudding sound.
Looking at the scenery in front of him, Rogers bowed slightly with satisfaction, he wanted to learn to say this line when he faced off with the third prince before.
"It can't be! How can you cast spells and command magic in ordinary language, and there is no precursor to the rise of magic, and how does this spell not look like a spell......"
The leader spoke in disbelief, his voice revealing an uncanny tone, and he tried to get up, but his body seemed to be embedded in some kind of cage, preventing him from making any superfluous movements.
As he tried to cast a spell to break free, a faintly glowing white bone stabbed through his chest with a pop, and the four men beside him were attacked in a similarly deadly manner.
Rogers looked up not far away, where Saddoy, who was leaning against the wall in one hand and holding a miserable white book in the other, was slowly moving towards him.
The other party's face was as white as paper, leaning against the wall and panting incessantly, his body trembling slightly, as if he was under tremendous pressure and pain, and his five fingers were clenched hard, as if trying to find a trace of support.
Rutgers ...... I can't help but want to ask you again, what are you? Originally, I thought that the Book of the Dead required me to make you a slave to advance the mission.
"But it is getting more and more ready to move, and it keeps telling me that it has been aimed at you from the moment it meets you, and this irrepressible surging killing intent is far stronger than that of the Holy Maiden.
"What are you that can cause it to be so manic that I can't contain it anymore."
Sadori's lips were chapped, the corners of his mouth drooped slightly, and his tone showed extreme exhaustion and weakness.
His miserable, feeble eyes were as wide as he could to stare straight into Rogers, exhausted and confused.
[Inform! The gods of the bottomless pit have cast their eyes on you, and they want you to crush that blasphemous book into dust as soon as possible! γ
The magic guide book that was originally floating quietly beside him also began to shake uncontrollably at this moment, as if urging Rogus to attack as soon as possible.
In an instant, he knew what was going on.
If there are three beings standing in a clearing, namely the oracle, the demon and the devil, then the first to attack must be the demon, and the demon will never attack the oracle, but will swing his fist at the devil.
And the devil, who is often known for his cunning, will not care about the existence of the oracle when faced with the attack of the most disgusting things, and only want to crush the brainless demon to ashes.
It's a truth that doesn't change much at any given time.
The book that Sadoi was holding in his arms was supposed to be a creature from the Abyss of Discord, although it could not be aware of its identity as a pit chooser due to the hidden protection of the gods, but it probably also subconsciously developed a desire to attack itself with the demon's outstanding intuitive talent.
"Ah, I hate troublesome things."
Rogers looked at the five people who were still trying to break free after losing their life in front of him, and knew that these people had all turned into undead who were dominated by that book, and they could no longer use the [Liqi Bonus] to interrogate.
Just as he wanted to mercifully give relief to the bodies of these people, with a violent explosion and blazing light, a raging phosphorus fire suddenly rose from them, and the temperature around them suddenly rose, emitting a pungent and pungent smell.
"Roar!!
Five deep and cold, resentful and evil roars resounded through the tunnels.
The five corpses that had been suppressed to the ground burned all the remaining strength of themselves, and they suddenly fell to the ground and jumped into the air, turning into five streamers, and rushed towards Rogers.
"Falling." Rogers pressed the dead to the ground again with an indifferent expression, and then spoke again: "Disintegrate." β
The process happened extremely quickly, and almost in the blink of an eye, the bones of the five undead crackled like broken ceramics and scattered into dust.
The glow that had permeated the surroundings gradually dissipated, and was replaced by an empty silence.
Sadoni looked at the scene in front of him in a daze, he knew that he could not be Rogess's opponent, but he still had a little luck, and he fantasized that he could find a suitable reason to escape after killing Rogus in an unseen place.
But the reality in front of him, which made him feel absurd, completely shattered his little hope.
In yesterday's chapter, I just wanted to write a foreshadowing of reversals and conflicts, but it went terribly wrong with the handling of the plot.
Originally, I wanted to explain the reason why I wrote the way I did, and reply to the book friends who questioned it, but after thinking about it, what I expounded can probably only be used as an excuse to excuse myself.
I'm sorry for the discomfort I felt like I had in the previous chapter, and I'm sorry for my efforts not to make such mistakes again in the future.
(Holding his head and squatting down to beat and scold)
