Chapter 44: The Darkness of Exile [VI.]
Collection, recommended to have some trouble points, thank you, I wish you a happy new year.
"Boom !!"
The sound of the clapping of the underground cavern, the dust flying everywhere, accompanied by a bottomless dark rift, appeared in an instant. At the front end of the rift, the six-winged corpse soul python dragon flapped its flesh wings heavily and floated in the air, and the only remaining eye looked around with fierce light.
As the number one berserk beast in the cave, the six-winged corpse soul python was confident that the full blow just now would definitely cause the two insects that had invaded its territory to crush their bones and scatter ashes. After pausing for a while, confirming that there was no life reaction from the two small reptiles, the six-winged corpse soul python stretched out its scarlet tongue and licked its injured left eye, and its huge body slowly flew in the direction of the waterhole.
Suddenly, a warm breath diffused in the slowly descending dust, but then there was a trace of destruction and violence, and the two breaths kept expanding, blending, and spreading in the space, flying in all directions.
The six-winged corpse soul python flying in mid-air stopped its body violently, and its sixth sense, as a fierce beast, instantly made it feel deadly danger coming towards it. The six-winged corpse soul python landed in an instant, its claws gripped the rocks on the surface of the ground heavily, its high head roared harshly, and a dazzling dark blue light erupted from the bloody mouth, which was the prelude to the baptism of extreme cold, the strongest attack of the python dragon.
At this moment, a pale golden light cluster slowly floated out of the dust, and four hazy figures loomed through the golden wall of light. As the light cluster approached, the six-winged corpse soul python dragon even felt a trace of a familiar but majestic aura in the two breaths, and what made it tremble even more was that the destructive power contained in the golden light cluster could easily obliterate itself. As soon as he thought of this, the six-winged corpse soul python slowly withdrew the trigger power of the baptism of extreme cold, and the six-winged slowly withdrew into the flesh membrane on its back, and its high head surrendered in front of the golden light cluster with a slight tremble, humming uneasily.
"You're interested!" Cohen's slightly cold voice sounded slowly. As soon as the words fell, the golden light cluster then rippled, gradually turning into countless points of light and dissipating into the depths of the dark cave.
I saw countless elemental vortices floating all over Cohen's body, and a trace of cold aura spread at a high speed under the supercharge of the elemental vortex. The left hand lightly held the blade of light redemption, and a ball of light exuding endless vitality and destruction power in the palm of his right hand rotated slowly, and the two breaths that permeated everywhere just now were emitted from the ball of light. Looking at the six-winged corpse soul python dragon crawling on the ground not far away, Cohen dispersed the ball of light, walked in front of the python with his sword, and gently patted the forehead of the six-winged corpse soul python with his right hand, and said softly: "Go back and guard the soul of the Holy Spirit." ”
The six-winged corpse soul python meekly arched its huge head, its scarlet tongue licked Cohen's palm, and slowly spread its wings and flew towards the waterhole again. Looking at the six-winged corpse soul python that was gradually disappearing, Cohen returned the sword to the sheath and dispersed the cold aura of his body.
"Should you give me an explanation, Abigaiah Cohen!" Shelly's voice sounded behind Cohen with no emotion, even a hint of anger.
Cohen turned around, looked at Xuelu, who was treating August and Coria, hesitated for a moment, and said, "What explanation do you want me to give you?"
Snowdew slowed down her healing spell slightly, glanced up at Cohen, and said, "You're not Cohen, who are you?"
Cohen scratched his head, pondered for a moment, and then confessed, "I am indeed not him, but I am also him, and most importantly, I have no ill will towards you, and I can save the lives of everyone here." ”
After hearing Cohen's explanation, Xuelu's originally vigilant eyes slowly relaxed, and after sighing, she said, "I'll save the two of them first, you put this matter aside for the time being, and I will definitely get the answer I want." After saying that, he was engrossed in releasing the healing technique to heal Auguste and Klya. Cohen smiled helplessly, and didn't explain anything anymore, pulled the cloak behind him and quietly leaned against a boulder behind him to close his eyes and recuperate.
It didn't take long for August and Coria to wake up one after another, and Cohen even told the two that their lives were saved by tricking the six-winged corpse soul python dragon by themselves, and the two people who survived the catastrophe expressed their gratitude to Cohen in addition to having lingering palpitations.
Xuelu was silent on the side, glared at Cohen fiercely, and said in her heart that if these two guys knew the strength of Cohen, they didn't know what kind of expression Lu Dao would have. Thinking of this, the more I wanted to figure out the fog surrounding Cohen's body.
The four of them rested for a while, during which Cohen went to the high ground near the waterhole alone to pick up Duke and Dylan from the Edgar Merchant Order. When Duke saw that the four of them were safe and sound, the uneasy heart that was originally occupied by fear finally got a little calm, and a strong desire to survive burst out in an instant, claiming that if they could get out of danger, the Edgar Merchant Group was willing to pay 800,000 gold coins per person as a thank you gift.
At this time, Auguste and Coria were silent, the previous defeat of the six-winged corpse soul python dragon was still vivid, and in this endless deep underground cave, whether he could escape was still unknown, and on the premise of not being able to protect himself, to ensure the safety of the two captains and escape back to the surface was tantamount to a fool's dream.
At this time, Cohen suddenly winked at Xuelu and said, "Come over here and talk to you about something." Xuelu looked at Cohen vigilantly, and after a half-sound, she still got up and followed Cohen towards the boulder not far away.
Looking at Xuelu behind him, after being sure that the conversation between the two would not be heard by a few people in the distance, Cohen smiled at Xuelu, "Do you like gold coins?"
Xuelu looked at Cohen inexplicably, as if she was thinking about why Cohen would ask herself such a question, and after holding back for a long time, she replied: "At least I don't hate it!"
"You should have a lot of gold on you, how many?" Cohen continued.
"About 9.3 million, all of which were obtained by helping the Mercenary Guild complete various tasks in the Holy See before. What do you want gold coins for?" said Xue Lu as she pulled out the golden crystal card and looked at Cohen with a confused face.
"There is one thing I am determined to get in this auction held by the Brefils Auction House, and with the gold coins you have here, it is estimated that it is about the same. Cohen spread his palms as he spoke, motioning for Shelly to hand over the crystal card.
Xuelu pulled back the crystal card violently, and said angrily, "Why should I give you my savings?"
"One answer, one promise, and you'll feel how well worth it is to spend that money later. Cohen thought for a moment and smiled.
Xuelu withdrew her hand and stopped, and asked, "What is the answer, what agreement, you have to make it clear." ”
Cohen scratched his hair again, pondered for a moment, and said, "When we leave this cave, I will tell you who I really am, and then we will make a pact, a pact that will shock you immensely, I can only say so much now, and if you continue to ask, I will not give you any explanation." How's that, Snowdew. ”
Xuelu stared into Cohen's eyes, as if she wanted to get some assurance from them, but she couldn't see any reason other than the slightly curled corners of Cohen's mouth. After half a ring, Xuelu finally made a decision.
"I believe in you!"
With a flick of his right hand, the crystal card crossed a graceful arc in the air and landed firmly in Cohen's palm. Cohen smiled with satisfaction, looked at Xuelu, who was slowly walking towards Auguste, and after putting away the crystal card, he followed.
At this time, the four Auguste were talking softly about how this endless underground cave was formed and why it had not been discovered, and when they saw Xuelu and Cohen returning, everyone quieted down, wondering what the two had just talked about.
Xuelu seemed to know everyone's thoughts, and without waiting for everyone to ask, she said, "You can ask Cohen directly, I'm a little tired, let's go rest first." After saying that, he didn't care about everyone's expressions, turned to look at Cohen, and walked to a backlit corner to rest with a complicated expression.
Cohen looked at the four Augustes, sat down, and said, "Two things, first I can take you back to the surface, and second, the secret of this underground cave. Just now, Commander Duke said that as long as he can escape from here, he is willing to pay 800,000 gold coins to each person as a thank you gift. I don't think this will work, I can take you to the Lion Crusader City safely, and in response, the Edgar Merchant Group will pay me a one-time gift of 10 million gold coins as a thank you, and I can attach a fist-sized high-purity flame Clythia crystal in exchange. ”
When he heard the high-purity flame clesia crystal, August couldn't hold back any longer, grabbed Cohen's hands, and roared excitedly: "I heard you right, Cohen, what you just said was the high-purity flame clesia crystal, the kind of crystal that was sealed by the gods because of its terrifying destructive power in legends?"
"Well, yes, you heard it right!" Cohen nodded.
"Impossible, how can you have this epic existence that only exists in the ballad of the wandering poet?" August kept shaking his head, muttering to himself as if obsessed, and after a while, he pressed Cohen's shoulders violently, and said in a pleading tone, "If you have a high-purity flame clesia crystal, can you let me see it?" Just look at it, and I'll be satisfied. ”
Korn took out August's hands, rubbed his shoulders that were a little painful, and said, "The high-purity flame clesia crystal is related to the secret of this underground cave, and only here can this crystallization be obtained in the entire Noah continent. Captain Duke, what do you think of my proposal?"
Duke was also a little overwhelmed at this time, after all, the price proposed by Cohen was a bit high, a full 10 million gold coins, which was really unacceptable to the two. But the legendary high-purity flame Clythia crystal, if it works well, may be able to make up for this loss, and once you go out, you can enter and enter safely, and you can also reach the City of the Lion Crusader safely......
Duke and Dylan looked at each other, nodded to each other, and had an answer.
"Mr. Cohen, we accept your offer, but can we attach a small condition, after all, it is ten million gold coins, which is a huge amount. Duke hesitated for a long time, then finally said.
Cohen smiled and said, "You say!"
Duke's fat right hand shook lightly in the air, and a purple crystal card appeared in his hand, hesitated for a moment again, and said: "This is the five million gold coin memory card of Donald Gold, which is exchanged throughout the Noah Continent, after we see the high-purity flame Clythia crystallization and Auguste distinguishes the authenticity, the five million will be handed over to you first, and the remaining five million gold coins will be paid after we arrive safely in the Lion War Crusader City, do you think this is okay?"
"Deal!" Cohen responded very cheerfully, and Duke and Dylan were visibly relieved and smiled comfortably when they received the reply. This is, Coria suddenly asked, "Cohen, what is the secret of this underground cave?"
Cohen pondered for a moment and said softly, "Do you know the Immortal Life Stone Chamber of the Age of the Gods?"
