Chapter 158: A War of Tongues

The snickering joy in Li Hao's heart did not attract Li He's attention, and Li He was completely contemplative at this time, thinking about how to break through the energy field of Lucius.

As Lucius guessed, Li He could not exert all his strength, he had to devote most of his strength elsewhere to suppress the powerful Being, which was deeper in the forest, so the power he could exert was less than one-tenth of the Heavenly Rank Holy Order.

Through Guò's repeated temptations, Li He had discovered that the power he was now able to wield did not have the overwhelming advantage he imagined in the face of Lucius's strange mechanical devices.

Those ordinary-looking, machine-made machines made of metal possess power beyond Li He's cognition, and it can be said that it is the most magical power that Li He has seen in the years since he left the Eastern Continent.

Before entering the Misty Forest, Li He had also traveled to most of the Western Continent, and had seen various forces in the Western Continent, mages who controlled the power of the natural elements, warriors and knights with strong physique and magical fighting spirit, and strange necromancers who manipulated souls.

Li He also challenged the priests of the Holy See, the protectors of the major temples, and even Li He fought with the Holy See Pope Peter.

But he had never encountered a force similar to the power used by Lecius, and he couldn't figure out why those parts made of ordinary metal could be combined into a machine, and the machine could release such a powerful force when it worked.

Moreover, this kind of power beyond cognition can easily resist Li He's attack, although he can only exert one-tenth of his power now, but Li He is a powerhouse of the Heavenly Rank after all, and one-tenth of his strength is already extremely powerful, which is definitely not matched by a tenth-level high-level magician like Lucius.

However, Lucius relied on those machines, but he was able to resist the attack of the Heavenly Rank Holy Order, and he was able to protect Caroline who was trapped in the main hall of the Scarlet Castle.

So far. Li He had to admit that maybe he had taken some risks to make a move to Caroline first, if he hadn't revealed his intentions and used Caroline's trust in him, he might have introduced Lucius to the Scarlet Castle.

Thinking of this, Li He looked at Li Hao who was standing on the edge of the high platform, especially when he saw the smile on the corner of Li Hao's mouth, Li He sighed secretly in his heart: Why are there no children in my descendants who can match Lecius? They are all bastards who are lost in the desire for power.

Li He was secretly angry, but he couldn't abandon Li Hao and them. After all, they are their own blood descendants, even if they have shortcomings and mistakes, as their ancestors, they still have to do their best to support and help.

After trying a few more times, he found that he couldn't break through the energy field of Lucius, which was the energy field that protected Caroline in the main hall, and Li He couldn't shake it, so he finally had to sigh and stop the attack.

Shaking his wooden body a few times, Li He said to Lucius in the air: "Boy, in fact, we don't have to be so tense. I only wanted to use the technology in your hands to relieve me of the pain of losing the lower half of my body. ”

Hearing this, Lucius sat in the carriage and stretched out his hand to support his chin. Shen said: "Actually, you should go to a doctor, I am a mechanic, I only know how to build and modify machinery, I am afraid I can't help you." Isn't there some legend in the East, the so-called flesh and bones? Maybe you should go back and try it?"

"Oriental, yes, I haven't been back to my hometown for a long time. I really miss my hometown and the taste of my hometown, but unfortunately, I am afraid that there is no way to go back to the way I am now. ”

Lucius's words evoked Li He's memories of the East, and his whole body suddenly relaxed, immersed in the memories of the East, and his eyes gradually softened.

"Boy, do you know? When I was in the East, I was the prince of a small country, and I had no worries about life, and I didn't have to trek through mountains and rivers to come to the Western Continent, but unfortunately, when the war broke out, all the qiē I originally owned were shattered, and in the flames of war and gunsmoke, I grew up, had strong strength, and a large number of supporters. ”

"However, there are too many strong people in the East, although they have some strength, they are not able to compete with others for hegemony in the world, and they are not qualified to restore the country, so I can only choose a strong force to serve. ”

Li He suddenly began to talk about his past, and when he said that he chose to take refuge in others in order to survive, he raised his head and asked Lecius: "If you were me, how would you choose?

In the unicorn village, Lucius, who was sitting in the carriage carriage, did not hesitate, and replied directly: "Yes, under the general trend, the strength is not as good as others, not only to protect yourself, but also to make a difference, and to take refuge in the big forces, it is obviously the best choice for you at that time." ”

"Hehe, yes, that's the best choice, and I never regretted my choice at that time, but it's a pity that the person I chose didn't choose me, he didn't trust me, I helped him lay down a piece of the sky, but he continued to weaken the strength in my hands, and in the end, it was for the sake of unwarranted legends, forcing me to take people to the Western Continent. ”

Although Li He was laughing, his words were full of sadness, the kind of suspicion of loyal people and the bitterness of being forced to stay away from home, perhaps only Li He himself could understand.

Instead, Li He's tone changed suddenly, swept away the previous bitterness, and said with a smile: "However, I have to thank him now, if it weren't for his suspicion and persecution, maybe I would have been buried in the loess a long time ago, and it would be impossible for me to break through the heavenly position and live for so long." ”

"If you lose something, you will gain something, in fact, since you have been through so much, why are you still persistent? These groups in the forest are not any threat to you, so why do you have to enslave and oppress them?"

After listening to Lucius's words, Li He did not answer him, but asked rhetorically: "They are not related to you, why do you have to help them overthrow slavery and oppression? With your ability, you can save your friends and leave this forest before I find out, right?"

Lucius looked down and thought for a moment and said, "However, we are going through this forest, and you probably don't want us to go through the forest, or you don't want us to go deeper. ”

"Since you have already guessed, how can you say that I am obsessed? The affairs in the forest should have been solved by the people in the forest themselves, and you and I should not have interfered, but now that you have broken the rules of the forest, then you must also bear the consequences. ”

The conversation between Lucius and Li He in the air, whether it was Li Hao in the main hall or Beludi who was guarding the carriage. Even though he was deeply curious in his heart, he didn't dare to disturb the two.

However, the unicorns who did not go out to participate in the war were still a little curious about Lucius, so from time to time some unicorns would gather around the carriage, but no one dared to get too close to Lucius's carriage, whether it was the unicorns or other creatures left in the unicorn village.

Hearing the faint sounds of conversation around the carriage, Lucius raised his eyes and glanced around, looking at the onlookers, Lucius could feel their curious gaze. There is a deep fear hidden.

Although Lucius and Li He had a conversation in the air, Li He had never descended into the unicorn village, and it was impossible for the unicorns to see Li He.

However, while the two of them were communicating, Li He's aura would still be transmitted to the unicorn village, permeating the metal carriage where Lucius was.

Although Li He's aura did not pose any threat, even if it was a Heavenly Rank Saint Rank, it was impossible to harm others with his breath in the air, not to mention that there was also Lucius's energy realm guarding it.

But Li He's breath. Obviously, it has long been familiar to the people in the forest, or the city in the forest that Li He represents, the breath of the Scarlet Castle has long been deeply rooted in every living creature of every race in the forest.

Especially to a sensitive creature like the Unicorn. Even if you are not the warriors and priests of the clan, you can clearly feel that it comes from the Scarlet Castle, which rules the entire forest. The powerful aura of oppressing and enslaving oneself caused most of the onlookers to have a look of fear in their eyes.

Seeing the fear in their eyes, Lucius raised his head to look at a few lightsabers in the sky. sighed: "The so-called rules in your mouth are only the rules you put under your own, right?"

"If according to the law of the forest, survival of the fittest, that is the law of nature, then no ethnic group in the forest should become a special case, but your survival has made your descendants a special case above the law, since it has become a special case, then why do you have to continue to oppress them?"

Hearing this, Li He in the Scarlet Castle Hall sneered and said, "Hehe, isn't your appearance interfering with the law?

In the face of Li He's sarcasm and questioning, Lucius did not hesitate and responded directly: "I, I don't want to stay in the forest, I just want to take the opportunity to go through this forest, go to a new place, see new scenery, and feel the different customs brought by the creatures in other regions." ”

"Hmph, don't pretend here, all the people in the Western Continent know that the Misty Forest is the end of the Western Continent, even if you can pass through the Misty Forest, where can you go?

The two of them communicated in the air, but the words could be described as full of sparks, and no one was to be outdone by-for-tat, especially Li He who had no way to take Lucius now, and he felt annoyed in himself, and he would not be soft again.

And Lucius quickly grasped the language disease from the other party's words, and said with an evil smile on his face: "You don't want us to go into the depths of the forest so much, could it be that there are some ulterior secrets in the depths of the forest? I'm afraid that the abyss and demons you said may not be true, right?"

Lucius's words shocked all the creatures around the carriage, and also shocked Li He, who was in the Scarlet Castle Hall.

However, Li He quickly covered it up, glanced at Li Hao and Caroline with a cold face, and saw that the two of them didn't seem to notice their gaffe, so they forcibly suppressed their anger and said to Lucius: "Boy, don't talk nonsense here. ”

Although Li He covered it up very well and was far away from Lucius, Lucius still vaguely felt from the other party's hesitant reaction for a moment that he was afraid that his guess just now was right.

Thinking of this, Lucius couldn't help but wonder a little, what secrets were hidden in the depths of the forest, and what was the ulterior story of Li He's lost lower half of his body? (To be continued......
