"Huh? The main body has moved!" The watchman looked behind in surprise.
At this moment, Mu You, who had half of his body swallowed by insects on the ground, suddenly raised his right hand mechanically, and the pen of order appeared in his hand, facing the direction of the Fairy King, and began to slowly move the tip of the pen.
Following Mu You's movements, the Goblin King in the distance fell into a daze at first, and then suddenly fell to the ground with his head in his hands and started wailing, obviously suffering from great pain.
"Kings!"
Tina, who was hiding behind the watchman in the distance, noticed that something had happened to the Goblin King, and hurriedly flew over, hovering outside the barrier, looking worriedly at the painful goblin in the barrier.
The entire repair process lasted for several minutes before stopping.
As Mu You stopped writing, the Goblin King fell to his knees in sweat, supporting his body with both hands to prevent him from falling.
"I've actually...been controlled by a snake for so long..."
After regaining consciousness, the Goblin King looked at his hands in disbelief, and then looked at the snake eyes high in the sky, his eyes full of fear.
Thinking back to what had just happened and realizing the cause and effect, the Goblin King couldn't help but smile bitterly. He had always thought that he had suppressed the snake very well and was proud of his firm will. However, he did not expect that subtly, its will would change. It has been penetrated by snakes to this point...
"Are you awake? If you are awake, then quickly suppress these ghosts!" came the cold voice of the herb collector.
At this moment, the snakes in the surrounding space are still pouring out. Even if they are very weak, they can kill one at a time, but they cannot withstand such an endless number.
In order to protect Mu You and Gargamel in the rear, the three clones were now forced to the point where they could not do anything else.
When the Goblin King saw the scene, he knew that the situation was urgent, so he quickly closed his eyes again, concentrated carefully, and adjusted his emotions.
This is the terrifying thing about snakes. Its control over people is not blatant control, but by amplifying the inner desires of the controlled person, thereby breaking through the other person's inner defenses little by little without the controlled person being aware of it. .
Just like the Goblin King, although at first it thought that its heart had been tempered enough and would not be deceived by any external objects, as it was trapped in this dark place for a long time, it became lonely, desperate and longing for the outside world. Wait until all selfish desires begin to grow uncontrollably.
He had to admit that he didn't know when he started, but he was already eager to leave here and return to a normal life.
Ju Snake took advantage of his changes in mentality to amplify his desires little by little, and took the opportunity to root part of his consciousness deep in his mind.
Of course, Ju She didn't dare to go too far. Once the influence on him was too strong, the Goblin King's instinct as a guardian would immediately detect that it was being manipulated and actively reject external will.
Even if it occupies a part of his will, Ju She can only shield his mind slightly. For example, just now, Ju She brazenly summoned countless snakes to attack outsiders. If it were the previous one, it would have noticed immediately. When he realized something was wrong, he began to take the initiative to block the snake.
But just now the Goblin King looked at the venomous snakes all over the ground and didn't realize anything was wrong. It was as if it was natural for snakes to be able to summon these things, and they would not be controlled by its guardian at all.
Fortunately, he woke up in time now, otherwise the consequences would be disastrous if his will was eroded even deeper.
The Goblin King closed his eyes and concentrated, trying to calm down his mood, trying to make the snake fall asleep again.
However, after a while it opened its eyes again with sweat on its head.
"What's going on? The number of snakes is not small, and it is even increasing..." The three people in the distance looked at the increasingly dense snakes on the ground, and they all cast questioning looks at the Goblin King.
"No, the snake's will continues to invade my mind. As soon as I think about calming down, the fear will interfere with me..." The Goblin King said with a bitter smile.
"What should we do?" the watchman asked.
"My consciousness has been riddled with holes by the snake, and I am completely unable to resist it... Now I can only replace it!"
"Substitution?"
"Yes, replace me with a younger soul..." While speaking, the Goblin King subconsciously glanced at Tina who was hovering next to the barrier. After being stunned for a moment, he then said in surprise: "Wait a minute. , do you have royal blood?"
"Ah... Tina is just a branch of the royal family..." Tina was startled and answered instinctively.
"That's enough!" The Goblin King was overjoyed: "That's great. Fortunately, there is a goblin with royal blood here. Only a goblin from the royal family can establish a spiritual connection with the snake. Although your bloodline is a little thinner, but It’s enough to establish a connection.”
"Ah...but, Tina..." After hearing this, Tina instinctively raised her head and looked at the pair of snake eyes high in the sky. Just one glance made her heart shake and her whole body trembled with an unspeakable feeling. Fear exploded from the bottom of her heart: "No, Tina can't do it... This kind of thing is not something Tina can handle..."
"What nonsense are you talking about? Helping the guardians seal the snake is the mission of the royal fairies of all generations! I have been here for eight hundred years and have already exceeded my responsibilities. Now it's time to be free!" The Fairy King was excited! As he spoke, an inexplicable fanaticism gradually began to flash in his eyes.
"But, Tina really doesn't want to, I, I can't do it..." Tina was so aggrieved that she almost cried. Seeing the enthusiasm in the Goblin King's eyes now frightened her even more. She just wanted to find There were traces of the royal family, but she never thought that the price would be that she would be locked up in this dark place for a long time. Whether it was physical or psychological, she was not prepared in any way.
Tina instinctively flapped her wings and flew back, trying to escape from here.
"Racial justice and the survival of all things, are they issues that you don't even think about?" When the Goblin King saw that Tina was about to run away, he became furious and yelled: "In the name of the Goblin King, I order you to come in and replace me!"
Following the Fairy King's voice, Tina's flying movements stopped, and she floated back to the barrier uncontrollably. Then, with a face full of panic, she was grabbed by the Fairy King and dragged into the barrier. .
At the same time, red arcs of electricity continued to pour out of the Goblin King's body and transferred into Tina's body.
"Ah..." Tina screamed, struggling desperately, looking at the Goblin King with tears and pleading, but to no avail.
"Very good, that's it. These are the snake's will. If I transfer these to you, I can be free!" The Goblin King laughed, and the red arcs all over his body transferred a little faster.
At this moment, the Goblin King suddenly appeared outside and a figure quickly attacked and plunged into the barrier.
The Goblin King instinctively dodged to the side, but after a closer look, he realized that the person coming had no intention of harming it.
The person who rushed into the barrier was the watchman, a tall man of 1.9 meters. He rushed in rashly and immediately made the already small barrier extremely crowded.
The watchman didn't have time to care about anything else, he rushed directly in front of the red fairy, picked up Tina with both hands, and protected her in his arms.
The overflowing arcs around them lost their target and immediately changed their targets, hitting the watchman one after another.
Wave after wave of terrifying spiritual energy poured into his consciousness. The violent mental shock made the watchman frown involuntarily, and his consciousness was in confusion. However, he still had no intention of letting go. He gathered up his whole body and took on all the arcs without saying a word. down.
The Goblin King looked at this scene blankly for a few seconds, and then laughed again: "Are you her contractor? Great! You can also help her bear part of the snake's spirit. Since you want to protect her so much, then follow Let her stay here together! The mental strength of the two of us can last longer!"
The electric arcs all over the Goblin King's body flickered more violently, as if he couldn't wait to get rid of this shackles, and regardless of it, he threw all the electric arcs at the two of them.
"I'm finally free... Poof!" The Goblin King controlled all the arcs with his hands to rush towards the two of them, shouting excitedly.
But as soon as it finished speaking, it suddenly felt a cold feeling on its back, and a sharp blade penetrated from its chest.
The Goblin King's laughter stopped suddenly, and as he approached, he was dragged out of the barrier by a huge force.
The Goblin King vomited blood and turned around, only to find that he had been pierced on the tip of a sickle. Behind him, stood a young man with a handsome face.
But the young man looked at it coldly like he was looking at garbage: "You want our people to be the scapegoats. Do you have our consent?"
After saying that, the herb gatherer didn't care what the other party's reaction was, he swung the sickle without hesitation, the sword flashed across, and cut off several sections of the Goblin King in front of his horrified eyes.
The Goblin King's shapeless body fell to various places on the ground, and he died with his eyes open.
"Thank you..." In the barrier, the pale watchman looked at this scene and gave the herb picker a hard smile.
At this moment, there are countless fine red arcs floating in the barrier. Each one represents a piece of snake spirit, and each piece takes time to digest.
The Goblin King was obviously insane just now, and was reckless in order to regain his freedom as soon as possible. If the Goblin King had just sent all the arcs into his body, he would probably be unable to bear it and fainted on the spot.
Fortunately, these arcs cannot escape the barrier and will be bounced back when they reach the edge of the barrier. Only then does the watchman have time to collect them one by one and send them into his body one by one.
The whole process lasted for several minutes. In the end, the watchman even sucked out all the arcs absorbed from Tina's body, and then sent the unconscious Tina out of the barrier.
The red goblin floated out and was caught by the herb gatherer, holding it in his hand.
The herb picker looked at the goblin in his hand, but couldn't help but frown, looked at the watchman, and said helplessly: "Are you an idiot?"
He had long seen that the Goblin King was no longer suitable to continue to be the caretaker, and among those present, Tina was obviously the most suitable successor.
So when the Goblin King wanted to capture Tina to replace it, the herb collector didn't stop her.
Letting Tina become the new caretaker and help them continue to seal the snake for the next four thousand years is what is in their best interest at the moment.
But he didn't expect that No. 1 would suddenly take action, willing to sacrifice his own freedom to replace Tina.
The watchman smiled weakly when he heard this: "You actually understand that she can't withstand the impact of the snake. There are only three of us here who can withstand the will of the snake, and among the three of us, we are the most suitable to be the caretakers. Yes, obviously it can only be a good old man like me."
"Have you really thought about it? This is a whole four thousand years..." Linglong couldn't bear to look at the watchman.
Serving as a guardian means that he will be trapped in this small barrier for the next four thousand years, fighting a never-ending battle of wits and courage with the snake's will. Just thinking about this kind of thing makes her feel suffocated...
"There is nothing to hesitate. Think about it now. In fact, from the moment the three of us were sent to this world five days ago, everything has been doomed. This is a historical necessity."
Perhaps it was because everything could not be changed, but the watcher showed a relieved smile: "It seems that the three of us are really the creators of history. During the next period of time when the main body is disconnected, the three of us need to be responsible for completing the original work." history, and let the future go in the established direction. Unfortunately, I can’t move here. I can only leave it to you to complete the task of history..."
The watchman said, then looked at the bloody body of the Fairy King on the ground, and sighed: "The problem is, the old gardener's task is to let us bring the Fairy King alive to her, and then she will hand it over to us in Sky City. Drawing, if you kill it now, how can you handle this task..."
"Don't worry, as long as I know that the blueprint is in her hands, I have plenty of ways to get it." The herb collector sneered.
It was impossible for him to let the Goblin King leave alive, because he was not sure how far this guy's mind had been eroded by the snake. This guy had the ability to control the entire goblin clan. If he let it go, he might turn around and react. Water, mobilize the fairies to deal with them. The safest way is to shut them up completely here.
"In short, you don't have to worry about this matter, I will handle it." The herb collector said without any doubt.
"Don't be too reckless..." The watchman looked at him helplessly, but he also knew that the clones had very different personalities, and it was destined that no one could persuade the other.
At this moment, a chaotic thought suddenly sounded in his mind.
"A new caretaker dares to be so leisurely. It seems you don't know what you are about to face..."
The watchman was stunned for a moment, then quickly understood: "Oh? Is it a snake? It can actually communicate consciously. That's not bad. At least when you are bored, there is someone you can talk to..."
"I am the embodiment of emotional disaster. Your emotions and desires are all under my control. Except for pure creatures like fairies, no race can resist my will, especially you humans. No matter how perfect you pretend to be, I will amplify the dirtiest and most despicable desires deep in your heart to the extreme, until you collapse and surrender to my will..."
Gu She's threatening laughter continued, but the watchman yawned.
"...Come on, let me see, the most filthy selfish desire in your heart...is...is...sleeping? You..."
The chaotic sound suddenly stopped and became extremely incomprehensible.
"This is impossible! How can someone have no selfish desires at all, and their biggest selfish motive is just... laziness?"
"Actually, I really have to thank you, big guy."
The watchman yawned again and lay on his side in the barrier, resting his arms on his pillow. His consciousness quickly became blurred: "Thanks to you, I can finally fish in a legitimate way..."
"Asshole!"
The snake's voice suddenly became angry, but as the waker's consciousness fell into sleep, its voice soon became languid.
"Don't be so irritable, big guy. We have a long time to come. Even if you want to go berserk, you are not in a hurry, right? Let us have a good rest first... Well, let's sleep for a few hundred years first..." The watchman muttered, his voice It became lighter and lighter, and soon fell into a deep sleep.
As he fell asleep, the rampaging snakes in the outside world suddenly petrified on the spot as if they had died, and then turned into dust and disappeared one by one.
After a while, the scene was completely restored to cleanliness, and the snake eyes in the sky disappeared without a trace.
