Chapter 57: Communication

As the gray in the castle began to fade, Ligeret quickly stood up and grabbed the arm of the Grey Man.

"I'm sorry, if it's going to delay you from chasing that guy, I'll let it go!"

She said this, but her hand did not let go at all.

It shouldn't make sense if someone else did this, because he had descended into Roth's body, and holding Roth's body would not have hindered his departure.

But Ligeret seemed to be special, the man in gray had caused her unexpected damage when he had passed through her blood-colored thorns before, and this time he did not act rashly, but just looked at her suspiciously through a layer of gray mist.

"Hey, I didn't shake off and I didn't speak, don't you need to chase and kill? I think that guy isn't dead yet......"

The man in gray couldn't see through what the woman was thinking, and if it wasn't an accident that she could see that the unrecognizable person wasn't dead, then it was strange to know that the other party wasn't dead but still held him - of course, she didn't use any extraordinary power, and she couldn't stop the man in gray from forcibly leaving, and even if she hurt her, it was just a hand, but it couldn't be said that she was in the way.

“...... The kind of monster that has been transferred is difficult to eradicate, although his main body is dead, but he is spreading his flesh and blood everywhere in the process of pursuit, and now it should have entered a latent state, it is difficult to find, but there is no hurry. The grayman's tone was emotionless.

Lijlitt was pleasantly surprised, "Wow, you can say so much!"

The man in gray began to consider whether to force his way out.

However, he is incomplete in all senses, and he can continue to act only by relying on Roth, and his behavior pattern will be affected by Roth, so he has taken away a lot of things from Roth, and it is true that he has the righteousness of this world, but he also feels that at least he must avoid causing harm to the people that Roth cares about.

“...... What's the matter?"

Lijielit happily let go of her hand, "Don't worry, I'm very measured, I will only ask me about the things I care about, and I won't delay you too much...... Anyway, tell me what that trick was just now?"

"Eclipse the moon. Out of respect for the old man, the man in gray had already said the name of the move when he made the move, realizing that the other party should want more information, and added, "One of the Crazy Knife Sect stunts, the founder of the sect originally named it [Eat the Moon Raw], and the latecomer changed the name to [Eating the Moon] after optimizing the move. ”

Ligeret had never had the idea of going east until the battle with the Lord of Hell had led to a more fundamental change in herself, even though she had even gone up to the moon.

And after the battle, she has been in a state of inability to move freely, although she realizes that she has lived for so many years but has never walked to the east of the great desert, but she has not had that opportunity.

Most of her current knowledge of the Qin and Han civilizations came from the adventurers of the United Kingdom who had broken through the illusion realm before, and the words of the man in gray really shocked her now.

The Crazy Sword Sect seems to be just a sect of the Qin and Han people, and moves like [Eating the Moon] are just one of the stunts, how powerful is that civilized martial artist?

And they are so powerful that they are helpless in the face of filth...... No, there is no point in being strong in the face of filth, otherwise the true god as the world consciousness will not be defeated on his home turf.

Wow, but in this case, how will the United Kingdom recover the land of the Qin and Han Kingdoms?

The man in gray was waiting for the other party to complain about the original name of this move, but Lijielit didn't seem to care too much.

"Although you have a lot of puzzles, there are actually only two things I care about now, the first is that trick, and the second is ...... Why don't you seem to have taught Roth anything?"

Lijielet wasn't one to get to the bottom of people, she didn't care what the gray man had to do with Roth, but she wouldn't let go of something that made her confused or funny.

Seeing that the man in gray didn't answer immediately, Lijielit herself continued, "I have carefully observed Roth's fighting style, he seems to have been taught by a famous teacher at first glance, but in fact he is more like he has learned it from a famous teacher. Each slip looks like that, but it's filled with a lot of assumptions. I used to wonder how he managed to make each of his hands so high with such swordsmanship, but now I know that it was borrowed from you...... So why didn't you mentor him?"

"How much do you think I owe him?" the man in gray seemed to answer.

"I don't know the relationship between the two of you, how do I know which of you owe whom," said Lijlit. I'm just wondering, since his life and death seem to matter to you, why don't you teach him the art of saving his life with both hands?"

The Grey Man's answer was a little unclear: "Because to him I am an adversary, he doesn't mind learning anything from me, but he won't accept my teachings." ”

"Opponents?"

The man in gray didn't know what he remembered, and there was a little smile in his tone, "Everything." ”

Lijielit saw that he didn't mean to take the initiative to continue, and she didn't dwell on some things, and she didn't want to contact them too early, "Then thank you for being willing to answer my questions." ”

"Need help?" asked the man in gray.

Ligeret shook her head, "I'm not going to do it here, I don't need to. ”

The man in gray nodded, and then his aura disappeared from Roth's body in an instant.

Roth did not faint from the loss of his possessed consciousness as he usually does, as his consciousness was ready to take over his body at all times.

But the fact that he had lost half of his body before made him unable to control his body immediately, and his body was about to collapse as soon as he was weak, and almost the entire right half was completely unable to exert his strength.

Ligeret helped him up.

Roth was a little surprised, "You shouldn't ......"

"Hey, hey, don't think you've seen through my patterns. Lijlitt looked at Roth for what he was, "Hmm...... It's really an ordinary face, not as interesting as before!"

"The Qin and Han faces used for camouflage are actually as ordinary as possible, probably because you haven't seen many Orientals, so you find it interesting. Knowing that it was not the Lijielet in the illusion who was holding him now, but the real thing, Roth didn't crave anything more, and soon stood on his own.

"Since you're talking about this, can you still use that pocket watch? If you can't disguise it and it will be troublesome, I can help you, but it hurts a little. Lijliet was a little excited about it.

Roth picked up the pocket watch that had fallen on the carpet, "Once the curse is lifted, the power of the pocket watch will be temporarily depleted, and it will take some time to recover...... But it's not a problem here, is it?"

"That's right. Lijielit withdrew her hand with some regret, "Then it's not in a hurry, this illusion has become Jieli and not a vampire because of some accidents, and the villagers have all been successfully rescued, anyway, the strength has been consumed, and if you don't see it, you will lose in the end." ”

"What do you mean?"

Ligeret grabbed Roth and teleported him to Jeri and Sken.

Jieli exclaimed, and couldn't help but rush over and hug the two.

Ligeret stopped Skem, who wanted to kneel, and cured him with her hand, and was about to send him away.

He hesitated, but after all, he couldn't disobey Lijielit's decision, and after a deep bow, he teleported away.

Lijliet let Jieli hold her, and when she felt rude and let go, she told her that she had nothing to do with her anymore, and that it was better not to have any more intersections, and sent Jieli and Lot out of the realm of Castle Black.

The two looked around, but there was no sign of Castle Black.

Roth surveyed the terrain and found that this was already near the city of Rockland.

Because of the fluctuations in power that leaked when Ligeret sent the two here, they were quickly found by the lord's knights.

After following them to the lord, Roth learned that the battle between Lijielit and the Lord of Hell had actually been observed by many people, but at the request of Lijielit, the "victor", all records were erased, and she also made a special mention of Lockland, asking him to take good care of Roth and Jieli.

Roth didn't know at what point in time she had done this, but the human nations and lords of hundreds of years ago had shown incredible efficiency at this time, and Lockland, the lord who had been deeply respected, was also very conflicted in front of her at this time.

On the one hand, he was polite on the surface, but on the other hand, this courtesy was a bit nondescript, neither the courtesy of the nobles nor the appearance of treating commoners as equals.

Considering that the crises and opportunities in Rockland City are also brought to him by Lijielit, or it can be said that Jieli has brought him, his mood at this time is obviously not simple.

After all, Jieli is still a village girl, and she seems flattered in front of such a kind lord, but Rot's attitude makes Lord Locklan a little uneasy.

Neither did Rott bother with the man, and after confirming that the villagers had been sent back and that he would send guards to escort Jieli home, Jieli extended his hand to him, but in the end did not say a word to save him.

After walking into the field, Roth waited for a while, and sure enough, he was brought back to Castle Black by Lijielet.

"Why don't you try to get along with Jieli all at once?" said Lijielit at the beginning.

"She wasn't very appealing to me. Roth replied without concealment, "...... And I can't go to live a peaceful life here. ”

Even if you don't take into account Roth's special family factor, life in the United Kingdom is anything but easy.

Until he was fourteen years old, the village of Sprunp was still a border village, and at that time, every heavy rain would have a weak child die due to filth, and every year a large number of filthy beasts would attack the village, and it was for this reason that the father, who was supposed to protect the village, gave up his own responsibilities, and even abandoned his wife and children to become an adventurer.

To live on the frontier is to consolidate and purify the world, to be a glorious sacrifice, to express gratitude to the true God for those who cannot fight, and the escape of Roth's father is not only as simple as putting the village in danger, but also a betrayal of the true God.

His mother fell ill from the blow and became increasingly difficult to resist the filth, while Roth had to face the cold eyes of the villagers while accepting the support of the village.

Even as more territory was regained by the kingdom, the village of Springp gradually moved away from the border, and life began to become stable, and no children would die even when it rained heavily.

For Roth, it was already the most peaceful life imaginable.

In the illusion of the Fallen Village, the reason why Roth has to experiment with the villagers all the time is so that he can realize that this is a falsehood, and tell himself that this quiet and peaceful village is just an illusion.

But the time span of this black castle's illusion is too large, depending on what Lijielit means, even if it is to deduce Jieli's life as a human being, there is no problem.

Roth doesn't feel like he can guarantee that his spirit is not lost here.

"Ah, by the way, are you afraid that you won't be able to distinguish between fantasy and reality after too long?" I forgot to mention that some of the adventurers who entered the illusion world before didn't care about Jieli who was attacked by bandits and zombies, and there were also many people who sneaked away after the battle between Kosher and me, and most of these people gradually lost their minds in the communication with the inhabitants of the Realm of Death, but I rescued them in time, so you don't have to worry about this, don't you experience it?" Lijielit guessed Roth's concerns.

"Forget it. ”

"It's not bad to experience the different lifestyles of different people hundreds of years ago, and you don't have to get together with Jieli, this kind of life experience is so rare. If you are tired of staying in the village, you can go to the city, and if you are tired of being a civilian, you can also try a warrior, a knight, a soldier, even if you are a nobleman and a lord, I can arrange it to a certain extent. But the king can't do it, it's a pity that the royal capital is not included in this realm of vain death. "Lijlitt genuinely felt sorry for Roth.

Human life is very short, and often the life span has been exhausted before even one life can be experienced, and such an opportunity should be cherished at this time.

But Roth is adamant about it, "I'm not interested in experiencing many different lives, I'm just going to be myself!"

When Roth and Lijielit talked before, although they took an equal attitude, Lijielit could still see some caution in his demeanor, he should be unwilling to use a respectful attitude to distance himself for some purpose, but for her unpredictable strength, Rote could not really be heartless and unscrupulous.

And when he said this, he forgot even that unintentional scruple.

It seems to have something to do with the man in gray.

Lijliet didn't ask, for she had the best feeling of slowly unraveling the mystery herself, and if she knew it too quickly, the fun would be ruined.

Humans who are anxious will want to get things figured out as soon as possible so they can use their energy elsewhere, but Ligeret has no shortage of time.

But there are also things that you can't know without asking.

"Speaking of Roth, you said that Jieli didn't attract you, so what about me? The purpose you want to change the illusion is not really just to see if you can do it so simple, right? You must know that you were almost ...... by the succubus in the end."

Roth interrupted her, "It was an accident, how did I know that something like that would happen! I just think that hundreds of adventurers can leave the illusion safely, which means that when you really encounter a life-threatening situation, there will definitely be a change, and you dare to take a certain risk when you feel that your life is worry-free...... How do I know ......"

Anyway, it was too embarrassing for Roth to keep his mind at bay.

"As for you, Miss Lijielit, I have indeed been very attracted to you from the moment we met. ”

Lijielit narrowed her eyes, "Oh~ What if I was like this when we first met?"

For Lijielit, who has complete control over her body, she can become whatever she wants, but bats, black wolves, and fog are the most comfortable forms of transformation for her.

This time she indulged her imagination and changed wherever she wanted, and finally became a mess that she didn't know how to describe, and what she insisted on saying might have been influenced by the flesh monster with an unrecognizable face, somewhat like a sarcoma.

"If I had met you like this for the first time, I would have either cut it or turned around and ran. Roth said.

Lijielit's voice came from the pile, "Wow, you're so blunt, I feel a little hurt. ”

"I don't want to lie to you. Roth also said helplessly, "I was attracted by your figure at the beginning, and I don't think there's anything that can't be admitted." ”

"At first? And then? I don't think my personality is so acceptable to humans. Ligeret asked, keeping her sarcoma looking.

If there are some thrill-seeking human beings who are excited about the threat of life, then the incomprehensible thing is the eternal fear of human beings, and Lijielit does not have a human sense of ethics, and indeed some of her codes of conduct are still within the scope of human understanding, but more of them are still far beyond that range.

"I find you interesting, but it's not entirely unresponsive to what you're doing. Roth replied.

Lijliet turned back into her human form at this point, "So you don't like me that much now?"

“...... This is the first time I've had such an interest in the opposite sex. ”

"Ah, I know, you said it when you confronted the succubus!"

“...... I did suspect that I fell in love with you at first sight, but after seeing what Van Helsing did for you......"

Lijielit hurriedly stopped him, "Don't mention that guy, that guy doesn't look like a person compared to me in many places, you must not compare with that person!"
