When Kohan said this, his tone became full of temptation: "On the contrary, as long as you are loyal to our Demon Realm, your honor and power will immediately descend from you. Even a dog will choose to serve a master who can feed him. Just imagine. Think about it, who would choose a guy who is worse than a dog as a companion?"
"You bastard, what did you say?!" Ruta was so angry when he heard what Kohan said. He shouted loudly: "Kouhan who has killed a thousand swords, Ma Ze is a hero, not chasing after you. You are not allowed to insult this mangy dog that is wagging its tail in begging for food!"
"That's enough Ruta, stop talking." At this moment, Maze suddenly interrupted Ruta and whispered: "Please let me be quiet and think about it seriously. Also, don't forget me. What I said to you once, you...have to believe me!"
Hearing Maze say this, Ruta suddenly became speechless. At this moment, he suddenly recalled the conversation between himself and Maze in the cell last night.
At that time, the two of them were leaning against the corner of the cell and sitting lazily. Ruta suddenly asked: "Hey, what are you thinking about right now? Are you thinking about going to the execution ground tomorrow?"
"Haha, don't underestimate me." Ma Ze raised his head and smiled: "Death is not the end for me, because I have died once. You see, they have become undead now. Think about something that happened in the past.”
"My life has been full of blood, deceit, helplessness and loneliness. At least before I met Guan Heng and you, I was deceived into joining the Dragon Legion, killing innocent people everywhere, and my hands were stained with blood. This is how I spent my life."
Having said this, Ma Ze paused for a moment. He picked up a straw from the ground and held it to his lips. Then he slowly said: "But... after I was defeated by Guan Heng, I unexpectedly obtained the title of undead." I have been reborn, become everyone's companion, and gained precious friendship. To me, all of this is far more precious than my own life. I have made a vow long ago that I will never betray any of my companions!"
"Ruta..." Ma Ze looked at his companions at this time, and he said word for word: "You will witness my oath, you must believe me! I, Ma Ze, will never sell my soul again. !”
…
On the execution ground, Ruta suddenly recalled what Maze had said in the cell. His heart began to beat wildly, and then he kept thinking: "Maze, will you really abide by your oath? I, I really Can you witness all this?"
"Dawn is coming soon, let's not keep grinding our teeth!"
"Pah!" At this moment, Kohan suddenly laughed strangely, and then snapped his fingers. Immediately, two anxious demon soldiers held up a dark amphorae, with the words engraved on the surface of the bottle. A ferocious monster face, surrounded by an ominous and strange aura!
"Hey hey hey - what a wonderful breath." Kohan suddenly recited a mantra, and a black mist suddenly came out of the mouth of the amphora, and two silent heads passed between the lightning and flint. , these two unlucky guys immediately turned into collapsed skeletons and died.
"Huh!" Kohan suddenly stretched out a skinny black claw from the black mist around him, pinched the flask with a "pop" sound, and then waved his hand, and the black energy penetrated into the bottle again. , a strange sound of water suddenly came from the container.
"Well, after absorbing two souls, the purity is just right."
Kohan shook the bottle in his hand and said to Ma Ze triumphantly: "You don't have to think about it anymore, because the dawn time for execution is coming in the blink of an eye. As long as you drink the pure black gas from my bottle, The brewed 'magic wine' can turn us back into dark warriors who are completely loyal to the demonic realm, and then we will be our own."
At this point, Kohan's gloomy conversation changed: "But if you reject my kindness and want to 'walk the dark road', then you will wait until you and Ruta beside you become a pair of incompetent brothers. He fell to the ground and died at the same time."
"Kohan..." At this moment, Ma Ze slowly raised his head, and a sinister smile suddenly flashed across his pale face. Ma Ze stared at a pair of gray eyes and said, "Want to know my identity?" Answer? Then loosen the chains first."
"Huh, yes!" Kohan waved his withered claws and immediately cut off the chains that tied Ma Ze. He thought to himself: "You Ma Ze is already covered in wounds, and 80 to 90 percent of his life has been lost. , even if it is loosened, it cannot escape from my grasp."
"Crash!" The broken chain immediately fell to the ground. Ma Ze slowly rubbed his sore wrist. He first glanced at Ruta who looked anxious, and then said coldly to Kohan: "Give me the bottle. Bar."
"No, Ma Ze, don't drink it!" At this moment, Ruta was really anxious. He shouted loudly: "Have you forgotten the oath you made to me in prison? Ma Ze , don’t be a coward, you shouldn’t give in!!”
"That's enough Ruta, I've said before that for me, this world is full of darkness everywhere. Since I can't get the light, I'll just tear it up with my own hands." After Maze said this, Suddenly he held the amphora with both hands and drank the "magic wine" inside in one gulp!
"No -" Ruta saw Maze finally drink the magic wine, and his eyes suddenly turned black, and he was so angry that he almost spat out a mouthful of blood.
However, at this moment, something extremely strange finally happened to Ma Ze!
Ma Ze, who was originally an undead and had a golden skeleton in some parts of his body, suddenly had his body covered in a thick layer of pitch black.
"Uh-ho-ho-ho-uh-"
After drinking the magic wine, Ma Ze suddenly made a roaring sound like a beast in his throat. Then, a large amount of black energy from the demon realm suddenly surged out from his body, covering Ma Ze's body in an instant. Ma Ze's golden The bones were originally not covered with flesh and looked extremely dazzling, but now the black energy has used its own power to replace Maze with a layer of fresh flesh and blood, and is constantly removing the carrion that represents the characteristics of the undead from Maze's body.
"Hahaha, have you seen it? This is the miracle created by the pure black energy of the demonic realm!" Kohan laughed loudly at this time: "Maze is willing to dedicate himself to the darkness. He has now become a dark warrior of the demon clan. No longer some bullshit lowly undead, hahahaha——"
"Damn it, Maze... the Maze I know has been swallowed by darkness!"
When Ruta thought of this, his eyes suddenly burst with blood. He secretly regretted in his heart: "This is all my fault. If I had given Ma Ze more support and a few more words of encouragement, maybe he would not have fallen into this trap." Into the abyss of darkness.”
At this moment, Ma Ze, who was reborn through the black energy of the Demon Realm, finally stood up slowly with his hands on the ground. The undead carrion on his body had all turned into powder, and was replaced by a perfect dark skin. , black hair and dark eyes, with beast-like ferocious light flashing from time to time in those eyes!
