56. Red
"I feel ...... Something suddenly disappeared from here - it's strange, what I feel now is obviously a very special aura, and before this I seem to have blended into the normal and completely unaware of it......"
Watching Carlo raise his "nose" as if he smelled something, Xia Xin felt a strange feeling - isn't it just chiseling a triangle on a pumpkin?
"Does the disappearance have anything to do with the previous riot?"
"Maybe......" Carlo replied uncertainly, "but unlike the feeling of 'woe', my intuition tells me that it is definitely an anomaly, but it behaves in an extremely low-key and ordinary way...... Perhaps, that could be the target Xia you're looking for this time?"
“......”
"Natsu, what are you thinking?"
"Carlo, you say...... If this matter is related to Xiao Lin and her, based on the perspective of allies, should I go or not?"
Xia thought bitterly--reasonable, he naturally shouldn't have to hinder Lin, not to mention that if he met Lin's companion, it would probably not be easy to explain, wouldn't it?But if he just ran away......
"Are you worried about your boss?"
After being with Xia for a long time, Carlo can also guess Xia's scruples: "It's really hard to judge what you say, although it is impossible for him to install any surveillance methods such as bugs on your body like he treats those cannon fodder, but after all, he is an apostle of the gods, and he may have his own set of measurement methods for the things he is determined to obtain...... You really can't be careless, what do you decide to do?"
"Let's do it one step at a time, at least I have to pretend, if it doesn't work, I'll hit it under the knife myself, and roughly reach the level of 'serious injury', right?" Xia Ruo said casually enough to make ordinary people sweat, "Anyway, the level I usually show is about the same level as Saterion, and I deliberately pretend to be clumsy, even if I count this part of the 'hidden' strength, under the condition that there is a strong person who can kill Saterion in seconds, I am more than capable of it, right?"
"In other words, have you made up your mind to self-harm?"
"Hehe, if you can't go back with the mission target, you can go back with wounds and severed limbs - this is an excellent way to deal with troublesome bosses!"
"Isn't that too much trouble for such a boss? And this is not an ordinary person...... No, even if you're not an ordinary person, there's not much you can do, right?"
Xia smiled without saying a word, and reached out to pull his hood.
"I'd better keep doing what I did just in case?, Carlo, you don't have a good nose, but I already smell humans - it can't be Lynn and her friends, either in terms of numbers or gender......

"Huh, this is a magic horse, and it's completely different from what you say, dear!"
"Isn't there anything strange about it, is it?After all, the enemy you are facing is the projection of the mochi after the death of the Parallel Realm, and the amount of power contained in his body is actually its original purpose...... It's the kind of wonderful flame that can compete with the power of the netherworld, and although it is already a castrated version, it is already very revealing. ”
"By the way, this sister feels very familiar......" Lin looked at the woman standing next to the mysterious girl, and always felt that the pair of bat wings and the bat-wing-like ears behind her had a sense of déjà vu.
At this time, the girl also explained to Lin in a timely manner: "She, she is my friend, even if there is no contract now, it is not impossible to appear in ......."
"No! This must be your delusion! My name is Leguen, and we never know each other!
“......”X2
Except for the mochi, who didn't know much about the situation, the expressions on the faces of Lin and the girl were extremely wonderful at the moment......
"Sure enough, wisdom is a lifelong thing, and there is no cure. ”
The girl covered her face helplessly, saying that she was speechless for her friends whose IQ had not increased with her knowledge for countless years. However, it is not without growth, at least Angul's European pie seems to be a little more impressive than in the past - 84/58/83, by the old woman Anonymous friendship eye-eye!
“...... Inexplicably, I feel the urge to raise my middle finger to the sky. The Mystery Maiden found that her hands were tied and she couldn't move, so she had no choice but to give up.
And the other side......
After thinking for a moment in her brain, Lin decisively pretended not to know anything and said, "Sister Leguan, hello!"
- After all, Lin still needs to rely on Angul in the future, isn't it? Although the naturally cute fat bat has become a naturally cute girl in the blink of an eye, but if you think about it carefully, maybe it's because of the relative special situation of her fairy, so Angul can get rid of the fat bat posture and wet people in human form, but no matter what, it's normal for the contract demon god to have a girl form, right? Like a certain pumpkin head is considered a violation of industry regulations......
As for why Angul would appear here at this moment, Lin didn't plan to delve into it. Since Angul wants to hide his identity (albeit with a little cruelty), I'm afraid most of them have his own ideas, right?
"Is this little flame? When I think of the flame that belonged to the 'castrated version' at that time, and look at the original ...... now. How strange is that?"
No matter how you look at it, it can't be compared with the "castrated version"......
"Don't underestimate it, the nature of 'fire' and 'destruction' is just a small part of it - to put it bluntly, this is not a realm that human beings can touch, and it makes no sense to try to measure it by human values. ”
"Then you still give it to me? Mochi was made a ghost because of this, and now you give this to me, isn't it just for me to put on a stand in front of those shady scenes, showing that what they want is with me?"
"No one said I'd let you take it, I'm not stupid enough to give the 'Red Power' to humans, okay......" The Mystery Maiden gestured to Angul with a look in her eyes, who immediately understood the meaning and stepped forward, holding up the cluster of flames floating in the air.
"There are very few people in this place, and what they think is the 'secret treasure' contained here is actually not the same thing as the flame you see—or rather, there is a connection between the two, but that's all. ”
As if thinking of something interesting, the Lost Girl burst out laughing.
"The holy sword Yan Yu, a sword that is praised by the world enough to be called great, is buried here. Only a small number of people know the reason why the holy sword is called the holy sword, and this is the reason why they covet it - the flame feather contains the power of the fire spirit inherited from ancient times, which is the so-called 'red power'. ”
"The power of redness, is that little flame?" Lynn looked at Angul's palm suspiciously.
"No, this is the 'red power', but not the 'red power' as people generally know. Angul suddenly interjected.
"The 'Red Power' that people know is the power of the ancient Fire Spirit inherited from the dead Ancient Fire Spirit, and represents the power of the most primordial fire of time - just like you can see it now, and it is also the power of the Holy Sword Flame Feather. ”
"Perhaps people think that the so-called Holy Spirit of Fire is the embodiment of fire and the master of the fire elemental realm in the ancient worldly realm...... But do you know the way, and the 'red power', which symbolizes the spirit of fire, are only the 'power of blue', the 'power of black', and the 'power of the sky'—which correspond to the spirit of water, the spirit of the earth, and the spirit of wind. Doesn't that feel strange? There are so many other elements, why are there only these four Holy Spirits?"
"Fire and light, there is no doubt that the priority of the light attribute is more than the fire attribute, this is basic common sense, otherwise, the current world will not follow the church of light to dominate. Theoretically, the Spirit of Light should be higher than the Spirit of Fire?"
Angul said, his fingers clenched into fists, and when he released them again, what floated in her palm was no longer a flame, but a warm ball of light.
“...... It's hard, don't you say!"
"That's it. ”
Angul clenched his fist again, and this time when he let go of his hand, the flames were still floating.
"Perhaps because of the cause of the 'redness' in the 'Red Power' and the flames, or because the Fire Spirit that has long since fallen cannot give people an answer, sentient beings subjectively believe that the 'Red Power' represents the power of the flames...... Normally, the 'power of redness' also reflects the power of the flames, and that's true. Coincidentally, the amount of power that was contained in the Holy Sword Yan Feather was just when the Holy Spirit of Fire fell, and the scattered on the earth represented a part of the 'flame'......"
"Wait, you mean 'part of the flame'......?
"That's right, just as the 'Red Power' contains both fire and light, the Spirit of Fire is not as superficial as you think, but the master of fire. Actually......"
"The rest is too early for them, isn't it? They may have been able to guess some clues, but once you actually say it, the vague guess will become a given fact—not necessarily a good thing for these two children. ”
The Mystery Maiden stopped Angul just in time to tell her a closer truth.
"Please understand that there are some very important things involved, which involve the fundamental secrets of this worldly realm. Although it is not something that the knower must die, the plane I am in, the cause and effect and time that I correspond to, are very delicate, and the tangible answers I get from them may cause some unnecessary trouble. What I can say, my friend has already told me about it, and all I can add is a little more......"
"——This place was later used by a human powerhouse to seal the 'calamity', and it is very coincidental that it is the place where the Holy Spirit of Fire fell many years ago!
"The guy you defeated before, the guy I summoned, is the carrier that was used to carry the 'Red Power' from the Holy Sword Yan Yu and the transfer station for extracting the 'Red Power' after the death of the Mochi in the Parallel World Realm. Since the 'Red Power' once flowed in his body temporarily, there is still some of the breath of the 'Red Power', and that body has a direct connection with your half-spirit mochi now - after you defeated it, you have formed an inexplicable connection with the 'Red Power'. It's faint and inconspicuous, but the connection is real!"
"In short, you are the only mortal who does not need any special means and measures, and will not be burned by the 'Red Power' even if you are close to it! Although it is very unrealistic for you to accept the 'Red Power' directly, with the help of this ambiguous connection, you can help me to send her into the hands of those who need it and can use it! Of course, for some unspeakable reasons, you cannot directly deliver the 'Red Power' to her later, nor can you tell her about this complete ' Red Power's information, but when the time comes, everything will fall into place......"
"The person you're talking about is ......"
"Someone you know well, that's all. ”
