Secret Realm, Bloody Sand Tomb, the dim sun hangs precariously above the horizon, and before it sets, the already dark red sandstone hills appear even more blood red, strangely like half a shell-like folded rock lying on the ground. Bags can be seen everywhere, but there is no grass and no trace of life. The desolate and monotonous scene stretches for hundreds of kilometers. Only the whining and whirling wind blows through this lonely land, emitting a deep but solemn strangeness like organ music. sound. 【Read full text】
A figure was walking on this land. However, the leisurely figure seemed to be strolling leisurely, but it made people feel that this person was as careless and casual as if he was on an outing. But the calm was quickly broken, and a tall figure appeared. The three-meter-long one-eyed troll came out from behind a hill menacingly. Its huge fingers completely ignored its size, and it quickly and flexibly crushed towards the man, as if it wanted to crush a small ant with contempt and arrogance. However, the man was not panicked. He quickly dodged and raised the wand in his hand. After chanting the incantation in three seconds, a black light burst out, followed by another one.
"Hysteresis."
"Dizziness."
"Dark Sky."
"Dimensional Slash."
After a series of combinations of skills without stopping, the troll, who suddenly lost flexibility and had his vision blocked, covered the one eye that was blinded by the dimensional slash with one hand and howled. The other hand was waving in a chaotic manner, hitting the ground with huge force, like a diamond. The as-hard rocky ground quickly cracked, raising huge clouds of dust and sending gravel flying everywhere.
The figure easily dodged the rocks, and even used its strength to jump between the broken pieces, leaping high onto the back of the troll's neck. Before the troll roared and stretched out its hand to sweep down the small insect-like figure, the figure in its hand The magic had taken shape and was about to be swung, but when the corner of his eye caught a glimpse of the black light suddenly appearing on the young man's hand not far away, the man put away the magic in his hand, calmly jumped down again, and watched the black light sink into the troll's head. The troll screamed and fell down.
The boy approached, glanced at the completely dead troll, and glanced at Chrollo proudly.
"Chloro Lucilu, what do you think? Compared with your stingy primary magic, my dark light burst bomb is more powerful."
Chrollo glanced at Aslan lightly. The power was great, but the magic consumption was even greater. Judging from the way he was still slightly out of breath even though he was pressing hard, it was clear that it had been a long time. They saw the troll Yaslan at the same time. Silan started chanting, and it was not until just now that the magic was formed to attack. With that little time, he could have killed this troll long ago. But if someone wanted to waste magic power, he would not stop him, and he was not kind enough to remind this greenhouse flower to fight. The correct way is to achieve the goal at the minimum cost.
Moreover, with Aslan, a person who always wanted to overpower him and show off his strength everywhere, Chrollo's journey could be said to be relaxed and comfortable, but the thing he was looking for should be nearby. It was time to find out Aslan's intentions. Was it because he was competitive and wanted to compete with him, or was there another purpose? For a moment, Laurent's face suddenly flashed in Chrollo's mind.
He looked at Aslan calmly.
"It's been three weeks since I came in. How long do you plan to follow me? This is not the road to the end."
Aslan was stunned for a moment, his purple eyes wandering slightly, but then he looked straight at Chrollo confidently and shouted forcefully and harshly. "Who said I would follow you? I can go wherever I like. You are always walking on the path I want to go. Besides, it's not the path to the end, so why are you still walking here?"
Chrollo understood that he had another purpose. Even though Aslan's behavior seemed to him to be arrogant and arrogant, a young aristocratic boy from a big family, no matter how stupid he was, was not that stupid. Go, even if he really wants to compete with him, there is no need to go around with him, wasting time here meaninglessly.
It was ordered by Laurent, right? What is the purpose, the Eye of Truth? Chrollo thought to himself that since the last time he borrowed a book, Laurent deliberately mentioned the Eye of Truth, and since then he has been intentionally or unintentionally inducing him to continue exploring the Eye of Truth. Chrollo will not let anyone do it. But if the information revealed by Luolante is true, then he needs that thing, so he will do what they want, but the final result will definitely not be what they want.
Chrollo ignored Aslan and turned his head to continue moving somewhere. Ever since he entered this secret realm, he felt that something seemed to be calling him, and that direction was the same as the information Laurent deliberately provided to him. There were some similarities, which was another reason why Chrollo was willing to do what they induced. He was curious, what could it be?
Aslan's face changed as he followed, thinking about what Laurent said in his mind.
"Aslan, when you go in, follow Chrollo closely. It is not convenient for me and others to keep an eye on us too closely. Selena is monitoring us all the time. You are reckless, impulsive, arrogant, and there is nothing between you and him. There is also the guise of a competitor, so it shouldn’t attract too much attention and suspicion from others.”
"Don't deny it. I don't know your character yet. If something big doesn't happen, you really plan to compete with Chrollo Lucilu. After waiting for so many years, there is finally a person with both space system and Someone with dual talents in the dark system, I hope he can definitely find the location of the seal this time."
"If it hadn't been for the fact that the heart of Lord Elias had only one-tenth of its power, I would have been able to find the seal to liberate the eyes of destruction and truth. I thought that Shuiqin's disappearance was a great opportunity. Unexpectedly, most of the heart's power was actually Being sealed in Shuiqin is really a good plan."
Aslan touched the crystal in his arms. It was a coordinate-linked induction alchemy device. As long as it was crushed, Laurent could instantly know it and use him as the coordinate axis to quickly teleport over.
A day and a half later, Chrollo stopped in an open area. Aslan couldn't figure out what was going on with him, so he could only watch his every move, fearing that he would miss anything unusual.
Aslan's eyes were sore. He closed them and opened them again. In the blink of an eye, a black light suddenly appeared on Chrollo's body, and then he disappeared from the place.
Although Aslan was shocked, he still did not forget his mission and quickly crushed the crystal in his hand. Two seconds later, the figures of Lorante and several sub-demon clans appeared. Lorante turned his eyes and saw nothing. , and just as he was about to question him, Aslan quickly recounted what had just happened.
"I thought there would be some verification steps, but I didn't expect that the black light on his body flashed and he disappeared." Aslan argued reluctantly. He didn't expect that the seal was opened so quickly and suddenly.
Seeing this, Laurent didn't say anything more. He just rushed to the place where Chrollo disappeared just now, and without hesitation, he made a stroke on his wrist. The purple blood flowed out, but it did not follow the gravity of the earth. Instead, it flowed out like They gathered towards a certain point in the air consciously, the blood condensed, and a black spot suddenly appeared, then gradually brightened and expanded, and the dark light dazzled everyone's eyes.
Seeing the blurry and broken world inside, Lorent didn't hesitate and walked in directly. The sub-demon tribe who came with him followed suit. Aslan was stunned for a moment before rushing in. The black light disappeared again. There was only an empty void left.
Not long after they disappeared, a woman with iron-gray short hair suddenly appeared out of thin air. She was Gracia, the representative of the space department. Seeing the empty scene, her face was a little confused.
"Why is it missing? It's obviously here." She took out a device and calculated carefully nearby. The more she calculated, the more solemn her face became.
"The surrounding space synchronization rate and fold rate have changed slightly. Could it be that they really found it and sealed it? How is it possible? They haven't found it for so many years, why suddenly..., no, this matter must be reported to Sai Instructor Lina’s report.”
After making a quick decision, Gracia disappeared again. Ten seconds after she left, a group of green light appeared again in the same place. The green light was as kind and heartwarming as a gentle mother, and a comfortable vitality lingered here. Heaven and earth, in this green light, Illumi looked at the bow and arrow in his hand with a strange and inexplicable expression. The bow and arrow were buzzing, and the green light was coming from here. He was just busy killing monsters, picking up equipment and getting credits. , the bow and arrow began to glow for no apparent reason, and before anyone could react, they arrived in this barren land.
The buzzing sound of bows and arrows became louder and louder, and the green light became more dazzling. Illumi frowned. It was not good to know the details of something. He didn't know what would happen. Although it was a pity, it was better to throw it away. Illumi had just been promoted. With this thought, the green light suddenly burst out, wrapped around him, and turned into a ray of light, as if breaking through something, and plunged into the void.
Where is this taking him? Illumi was forced to move, and the space around him was compressing and deforming. Suddenly, a cold, dark air of death appeared without warning, and quickly filled the entire space and him. All the senses in the body make people feel a sense of despair from the bottom of their hearts, as if there is nothing left to be attached to in the world, and only eternal destruction is the real existence.
Illumi was involuntarily involved in this emotion, and his heart was filled with the desire to kill. He just wanted to destroy everything he saw, including himself, and pulled out his leg with empty eyes. Illumi swung the dagger towards his carotid artery without hesitation.
At the critical moment, a pair of flawless Ruyi jade hands that looked like the world's highest masterpiece appeared out of thin air, gently holding Illumi's wrist. The gentle and peaceful light of life slowly spread, and Illumi's big, empty eyes suddenly blinked. Blinking, as if he suddenly woke up, he looked at the dagger in his hand in confusion, and then his pupils shrank slightly. He actually wanted to commit suicide just now. What kind of dangerous place did this broken bow bring him to? Even at this time, Yi Lumi could still feel the feeling of despair and desolation that penetrated people's bones and was still trying to erode him, but he was no longer affected, and the reason was...
Illumi's eyes fell on those flawless white jade hands. The hands were transparent, and the wrist being held had no real feeling. It was obviously not a solid body. Long silky green hair was blowing from behind him, and it was dense. The soft long hair rippled around like transparent light. Illumi turned around and saw the owner of those hands.
This is a goddess. This is Illumi's direct feeling at first glance. It is not an adjective or a beautification, but a real goddess. How can a person like him, who has no romantic cells and no ulterior motives for worshiping gods, win her? I came to this conclusion simply because this word is the only one that can accurately describe the person in front of me.
Yes, she is beautiful. Beautiful Illumi can't find any adjectives. This is a kind of beauty that completely breaks the limits of people's imagination. Her long green hair is entangled with countless broken flowers, and a white corolla is like a crown. It was worn on the head like a flower, and the white gauze silk cloth on the body was faintly glowing with soft light. It only covered the key parts, but there were colorful and strange flowers decorating the bare arms, thighs and abdomen.
Her appearance seems to be solemn, elegant, sacred, and unattainable, but it is also full of gentle motherhood and love, which makes people feel admiration and closeness, but it also reveals a sense of lightness and beauty. , like a naughty little girl, this is contradictory, but it is not obtrusive in her body. The same dark green eyes are agile, wise, warm, kind, and peaceful, but they are not Not reflecting everything in the world into her eyes, this does not mean that she regards all living beings as ants, but sometimes putting everything in her heart means that everything is not in her heart.
But these are not the point. The point is, even if it is just a shadow, but even so, even if the shadow is smaller than him, he still feels an unreachable power, like an ant facing the vast starry sky. of insignificance.
Illumi glanced at the bow and arrow in his hand. This phantom emerged from the bow. At this time, the bow and arrow also changed drastically. The simple and concise appearance that Illumi admired so much before has completely turned into a complicated one. The beautiful, feminine long bow felt awkwardly tight in his hand, but he did not dare to throw it away at this time. In addition to looking at the phantom of the goddess, Illumi also saw the surroundings clearly.
This space is boundless as far as the eye can see, but it is full of desolate ruins, with criss-crossing traces of horrific battles everywhere. Except for a dilapidated black temple at the end of the field of vision, it seems to exude the terrifying aura that made Illumi almost commit suicide. The place was lifeless, and the sky above was pitch black, as if it would collapse at any time.
Illumi has no idea what he is facing now and why all this happened, but he needs to fight against the power of the destructive aura, and he also needs the information to leave here, and this all depends on the bow and the path in his hand. On the shadow body.
Illumi waited in silence. Since she brought him here, no matter what the purpose was, she would always tell him. After the goddess suddenly woke up and was confused, her beautiful eyes narrowed slightly, and she also fell on He looked at Illumi, his red lips parted slightly, and his voice was indeed inhumanly beautiful and intoxicating, although there was a hint of doubt in the words.
"You're not an elf?"
"No." Illumi answered every question he asked very well, but he didn't say a word.
The goddess phantom was silent for a moment, and then asked again: "Do elves still exist now?"
"The elves became extinct five thousand years ago, and now only the goblins with a trace of elven blood are left." Illumi explained the history he had learned.
There was a trace of determination and sigh in the eyes of the goddess, but after a moment, she frowned slightly and asked.
"Since the elves are extinct, the gods and demons should no longer exist in the world."
"Indeed, there are now demi-gods and demi-demon who each have a little bit of their own bloodline power." Illumi said concisely and concisely.
"But why are there demons there? The other ones..., their bloodline power is so weak, they should be the sub-demons you mentioned." The goddess pointed to somewhere in the distance.
"I don't know." He still wanted to know what all this inexplicable reason was for.
"Forget it, it's just the demons, nothing to worry about." The goddess phantom glanced in that direction nonchalantly, then stopped mentioning it and turned her gaze to the dilapidated black temple, with a slightly complicated look in her eyes. "I never thought that the prophecy would come true one day. People from other worlds who come across time and space are both the ones who tie the bells and the ones who untie them."
Illumi didn't understand, and looked indifferent, but the muzzle quickly turned to him, and the goddess' phantom focused her eyes on him again. Illumi suddenly felt like his soul was being scanned and pierced by her.
"I didn't expect that someone from another world actually came across time and space. Now that the elves have been destroyed, and this bow is in your hand, it turns out that fate cannot be resisted."
What's the meaning? Do you mean he is from another world? Illumi was only interested in the key points of the first half of the sentence, and his heart moved slightly. He always felt that it was a very important thing to him, but the shadow skipped the topic and began to explain solemnly. .
"This is your fate. You must take on the mission of ending all this completely. I am the remnant soul of Eveli, the goddess of nature and life, before she died. I reside on the bow of life that was once my weapon. The purpose is In order to completely eliminate Elias, the God of Destruction, he was sealed by me, Desireis, and Lureya in the Age of Mythology. However, Elias could not be completely eliminated. He even predicted that when the glory of the gods would no longer exist and the inheritance would be shattered, He will revive again under the call of a person from another world. I tried to predict it even though I had no ability, and found that the person who stopped him was also a person from another world. In order to give future generations the power to resist, I left a trace of my remaining soul. Responsible for monitoring the two seals of the Eye of Truth and Destruction and the Tree of Life. When the person from another world who represents the ruler of the void and the followers of destruction breaks the seal, it will be when I wake up. At this time, the person from other world who broke the seal is already there In the temple of Elias, what you have to do is to work with me to completely destroy Elias's eyes and kill the otherworldly person. If you understand, leave now."
"No." Illumi refused without hesitation.
"Well, since you have agreed..." Eveli was about to nod with satisfaction when she suddenly realized that what he said was not yes, but no. She asked in disbelief as if there was something wrong with her ears.
"····What did you say?"
"I said I don't." Illumi said clearly and clearly.
Eveli's beautiful eyes widened slightly, and she explained solemnly as if she felt that he was not clear enough about the consequences. "Did you hear clearly what I just said? If Elias is awakened by that otherworldly person and breaks the seal, what terrible consequences will it have? He is the God of Destruction, and the meaning of survival is to destroy everything. What did you just say? Don't you also feel the desire to destroy and kill everything? If Elias really appears in the world, the whole world will become a hell of killing until the last life dies and completely becomes a lifeless thing. A place of death and silence.”
"That has nothing to do with me." Illumi remained unmoved.
After Eveli was startled, her voice rose slightly, "Don't you care what the world will become? You know, if it really turns into the world I said, you will also be affected. You won't be able to escape anywhere. use."
"I care, but I'm not interested. I have nothing else to do. Get me out of this place as soon as possible." Illumi looked like the sky was falling and a tall man was holding him up. It had nothing to do with him. He looked at Eveli and stared at her with a somewhat troubled expression. He, he tilted his head and added something that he thought was very understanding. "After you get out, I will hand you over to someone who wants to be a hero. There will always be someone willing."
Eveli saw that Illumi obviously no longer had the great sentiment to save the world, and could only seduce him with fame and fortune: "Why leave it to others? Don't you want to be a hero yourself? Saving the world is enough to make you famous. , to become a great existence that is praised by thousands of people and admired by future generations. Isn’t it the purpose of a person’s life to be famous throughout the ages?”
"Well, I'm too tired. If I don't do it, I'll die. There's no real benefits. Fame and wealth are too vague and not affordable. I can't enjoy the glory after death. Only a fool with a strong sense of justice can do it. Just do such a thankless job." Illumi held her chin in her hands and retorted in a practical way.
"You..." Eveli had the urge to spit out a mouthful of blood. "How can saving the world be measured in such a vulgar way?"
"Didn't you say it first?" Illumi raised his eyes and asked innocently.
"I..." Eveli wanted to vomit blood again. Even though she could no longer feel the headache, she still raised her hand and rubbed her temples tiredly. After a while, she cheered up and continued to persuade.
"If you go with me to eliminate Elias, I will lend you all my power. As long as you succeed, the meaning of my existence will be gone, and then the power I have will completely belong to you. , although I am just a trace of the remnant soul, I am also the remnant soul of a god. Not only can you possess the godhead and ascend the throne of god, but it is still easy to become a god. By then, your life can be extended for at least tens of thousands of years, and there will be no one in the world. One person will be your opponent.”
Although this was somewhat untrue, Eveli was willing to go all out to get Illumi to agree at this time, so it was important to deceive him first.
Thinking of the difference in strength between an ant and a starry sky, Illumi was a little moved, but when she thought about the rewards and sacrifices, she felt that it was out of proportion. Only after killing a god could she barely get enough strength to reach the god level.
"Well, it's too troublesome. Let's forget it. I can just cultivate my strength slowly by myself."
Eveli's confident smile froze, and Illumi added insult to injury as it was not enough.
"What else are you going to do to persuade me? If not, take me out quickly."
Eveli pointed at Illumi angrily, her chest heaving slightly. If he hadn't been the one chosen by the prophecy, she would have really wanted to destroy Illumi's humanity directly, so she still had to beg him in a low voice?
However, this is just a thought, so Eveli still has to think about what else can impress Illumi? She said suddenly.
"You are not from this world. Your memory has been tampered with. All the past you remember have been fabricated. Don't you want to know who you are? Why did you come to this world?"
Illumi was repeatedly told by Eveli that he was a person from another world, and Illumi admitted that he did care about it, so he answered neatly.
"I want to know, do you have any ideas?"
"Yes, come with me to destroy Elias, and I will tell you."
"No."
"You..., there is nothing for nothing in the world. If you want to know, then you have to pay."
"Then I'd better not know. It won't affect anything anyway. It's the same job everywhere."
Although he didn't really care at all, Illumi just didn't want to get involved in the trouble of saving the world.
Eveli had never seen such a dishonest person before. In anger, she completely abandoned her goddess demeanor and started to cheat.
"The meaning of my existence is to destroy Elias. If you don't want to do it, then just stay here until you die. I don't care anyway."
Eveli floated in the air angrily, turning her head away, completely ignoring Illumi, and the two of them were in a stalemate.
Well, Xiao Zhizhi is a righteous person, even if you try to persuade others to benefit, now you are directly threatening her. Where is your image as a goddess? Where did you go? How can you force others to be heroes? Illumi was silent for a while and began to counter-persuad, but no matter what he said, Eveli just reacted and pretended to be dead. Illumi weighed it up and found that he would definitely not be able to defeat her, and he could not defeat her in a stalemate, so he could only Reluctantly compromised.
"····alright, you win."
"Very good." Eveli turned back in an instant, smiling proudly, "Instead of eating the toast, I had to drink the fine wine. However, don't worry, what I just said also counts, so..."
After a moment, Illumi's extremely depressed voice came.
"...Hey, does it have to be like this?"
"Of course, how else would you use my power?"
"...Hey, can I regret it?"
"No~"
"Then, can you change your appearance?"
"No~"
"...I remember you."
So, unknown to celluloid, there was one more savior who was pushed out of the market.
