The wind howls and the snow drifts.
The firelight flickered, and the tall figure faced the campfire, and white snowflakes fell on his shoulders.
The long and thick fingers tightened little by little and grasped the hilt of the sword. Not far behind the man, a figure appeared. His tall top hat had a layer of snow on it and he was wearing a black woolen coat.
"Regent."
The visitor took off his top hat, revealing a head of gray hair, with a torn purple cloak floating behind him.
The regent still turned his back to Suleiman and said calmly: "I am the only one here. There is no pardoner or imperial guard."
Suleiman was flattered: "It is an honor for me to be personally received by His Highness."
The Regent tilted his head slightly: "I have a question that I hope can be answered."
"Please say."
"How do people like you manage to communicate so freely?"
Suleiman seemed to have anticipated the regent's question. He held his top hat in his right hand and bowed weakly: "Your Highness, if you join us, you will soon understand what is going on. It is not difficult to explain. Compared with those living on the ground, People, we're just staying underwater."
The regent shook his head: "That's not what I'm talking about, Suleiman, don't fool me with those easy-to-understand concepts. We are all fish in the river, and no one can escape."
"Your Highness, even we can't grow wings. You asked the wrong person. As for the dream world, we are only exploring the sinking world. The sinking world will one day rise. This is the conclusion."
The regent didn't speak anymore. He turned around and looked at Suleiman calmly, as if he wanted to find out something.
Suleiman smiled and said: "If you have no questions, then our communication ends here."
"Can."
In an instant, Suleiman's figure disappeared and suddenly appeared beside the regent. However, the latter was faster than him. He reached out and grabbed the campfire and threw it into the air. Sparks flew and repelled Suleiman's probing attack. .
"What's this?"
Suleiman looked at the layer of ashes on his clothes, which seemed to be left after something had burned out. He felt that his speed had slowed down a bit.
The Prince Regent still stood there and said calmly: "A little gift will stop you from going so fast."
Suleiman was not in a hurry: "Your Highness has been staying here since leaving Little Londinium. Am I right?"
"I’m waiting for you."
"No, you're not waiting for me."
The regent's brows moved slightly: "Really?"
"You were waiting for him."
"Who are you waiting for?"
"Waiting for that flying fish."
"oh?"
The regent clapped his hands, and there was some inexplicable meaning in his tone: "Suleiman, I guess before you joined the Deep Sea Council, the Twin Queens should have valued you very much. They may not know that you are already a Deep Sea Council, Suleiman." Man, you know a lot about the deep sea, but you are unwilling to do anything. If this land is a broken ship that is about to sink to the bottom of the sea, all you will do is to open more holes in the hull to make it sink faster. .”
"Your Highness, how do you know we have no other way?"
"I don't care whether you have it or not. At least, you can't interfere with my plan. This is the bottom line."
Suleiman asked curiously: "What exactly happened to you? You are completely different from before. Was it your head that was damaged in that war?"
"Suleiman, you punched me several times in Petit Londinium, and now I'll give it back to you."
Suddenly, the situation reversed. Suleiman also disappeared first. What he did was to escape rather than attack.
The Prince Regent stretched out his right hand, and a pocket watch fell from his palm. Snap, the brass watch case opened, and the shadow of the white stone clock tower emerged behind him. The long and short hour hands slowly rotated in the opposite direction.
Suleiman, who was galloping, looked at his body in disbelief. His movements became extremely slow, walking through the fog, as if he was stuck in a quagmire. It took a huge effort to move forward even a few centimeters.
"Suleiman, the Sakaz people are far more terrifying than you think."
The regent moved forward step by step. His movements were not affected by anything, and he caught up with Suleiman bit by bit. His palms wearing metal finger guards pressed Suleiman's face, causing his face to wrinkle.
The white stone clock tower behind the Regent disappeared, and the deeply affected area returned to normal.
boom!
The tall Sakaz man pressed the gray-haired Suleiman against the wall, and a large piece of the solid cement wall suddenly sank. Suleiman, who was holding his head tightly, opened his mouth and spat out a large mouthful of blood, and his whole body fell into a state of dizziness. , unable to move.
"I said, you underestimate the Sakaz people."
Dark red light waves condensed in his hands.
"Cough cough cough cough!"
Suleiman coughed violently, and red blood spurted out from his mouth and nose. His figure suddenly became illusory and scattered, as if six of him appeared at the same time. The full text of the full text is the fastest んττρs:/м.χ八㈠zщ.còм/
The dark red light wave in the hand of the regent condensed into shape and was smashed towards Suleiman. The cement wall collapsed, raising dust all over the sky, mixed with snow and water, and scattered everywhere.
"escaped?"
The regent looked around and found no target. He lowered his head and saw a damaged piece of drawing paper soaked in water. The dye was smudged and nothing could be seen clearly.
"Ahem."
A slight cough came from behind the Regent, and then spread everywhere.
"Your Highness," Suleiman's voice was very weak, "You think now is the best time, and I also think it is the best time. When you regard others as prey, have you ever thought that you are also prey?"
The Prince Regent's expression changed slightly, and he suddenly covered his mouth with his hand. A trace of blood flowed out from between his fingers and dripped into the water.
When did you get infected?
Is it during a conversation?
It was too careless. I originally thought that I would not be hurt if I was careful, but I didn't expect that these deep seas would still take advantage of me.
"Run away, Deep Sea. Since you dare to admit that you are the prey, the hunter is already approaching."
The regent turned and left without stopping for a moment. He had more important things to do.
A moment later, Suleiman emerged from the wind and snow, stumbling on the road. The regent's attack was not only physical, but also caused real damage that penetrated all defenses. This was something that no deep sea was willing to face.
"King Sakaz, it's really scary. He's just empty-handed and hasn't drawn his sword yet. Fortunately, my mission has been completed."
In the thick fog, Suleiman's footsteps stopped. He stared at the opposite side, his pupils contracting slightly.
A figure appeared quietly, like a predator in the deep sea, with white hair, red eyes, a giant sword, and an indifferent expression.
"finally found you."
"Scadi."
Suleiman let out a soft cry, as if he had encountered a natural enemy, and his figure suddenly disappeared. Then a sword that cracked mountains and rocks struck him. He was overturned by the turbulent air waves and was forced to exit the rapid state. His whole body flew out and was smashed into a A residential building was buried in broken masonry.
…
…
"Your Highness, are you injured?"
The regent said nothing and walked so fast that the followers behind him could only trot to keep up.
He did get hurt, it was an accident.
Was it really an accident?
The Prince Regent suddenly remembered something, reached out and took out the dice from his pocket, and the first number he saw was two.
“Luck continues to decline or fluctuates slightly?”
He didn't know that he knew very little about mysticism, and all his thoughts were focused on his own plan.
"Your Highness," a subordinate reported, "something is wrong. There seems to be some unexpected monsters in the fog."
"Keep putting in the effort."
Someone quickly brought a chair for the Sakaz man to sit on. The medical staff carrying the medical kit ran over, but he stopped him.
"unnecessary."
At this time, the more difficult it is to receive treatment.
The Prince Regent clutched the dice tightly in his hand, and he could already sense that the other party was about to make a move.
"Your Highness, all the current data are normal, but..."
"I understand, continue monitoring."
…
…
"It's a little unusual."
w detonated an explosive and the collapsed warehouse instantly buried the two monsters. She was stopped by Ifrit before she had time to check.
"What's wrong?"
Ifrit stared at the ruined warehouse, the thumb of her right hand kept pressing the thimble, and a trace of blood flowed from her fingers.
W asked: "Is it appropriate to harm oneself like this?"
Ifrit didn't look back and said, "I can break three of my fingers in order to break free from mental control. Can you do it?"
She walked quickly to the warehouse, looked back and forth a few times, then turned to look at her companions: "All the resistance we encountered along the way has been increasing, and it is only now that we are these monsters. How do you feel about yourself?"
"I'm already feeling very strenuous. There are still twenty minutes until zero o'clock. If we continue to fight, I will have no crossbow arrows."
"Sister Mei, what about you?"
"Ah, me?"
Mei has never been able to figure out the situation. She moved forward and shot. Now when asked, she doesn't know how to answer.
"I'm a little tired. It would be nice if the end is right in front of me. Missions must end eventually."
Ifrit looked at Ines, who replied: "The enemies are getting stronger. Apart from the monster in the dream that you solved, the most terrifying enemy we encountered was the biological weapon just now. In fact, Their combat effectiveness is not particularly strong either.”
W asked again: "Little girl, what do you mean?"
Ifrit stood there and thought for a while, with a slight hesitation in his tone: "We seem to be developing according to the plot of some scripts. If I guess correctly, when everyone feels tired, there will be a safe place ahead. The point provides rest, and then comes the more intense battle." www.(). m.//.
"Isn't this bad?"
"not good."
The person who said these two words was w. She took out a surprise box and handed it to Ifrit: "It's time to give some color to the person who secretly arranged everything."
Ifrit put away the surprise box and explained: "If we follow certain plot developments, it will be difficult for us to escape. When the nasty plot happens, no one can escape."
"You must tell me why. It's really interesting. It's not easy to find something interesting."
Ifrit withdrew his gaze and said softly: "Because I am a person who is not controlled by the so-called plot."
…
…
"There were fierce battles here, and the outer walls of the office area collapsed. Who would fight in a place like this?"
In front of the collapsed building, Zhou Jinru squatted on the ground, observing the abnormal signs around him.
There was a pool of blood in front of him. He didn't know who left it. You could smell a faint smell of rust just from a few meters away.
"This is a deep sea, it is most likely Suleiman."
Ming Yuexin let out a whimper: "Oh, doctor, the concentration of Origin Stone particles here is so high, they are all brought by the mist."
"This environment is suitable for those deep sea battles. The fog is the deep sea. They are like fish getting water. There are traces of explosions here. It seems that the noises I heard came from here."
Zhou Jinru stood up straight and continued to move forward according to his intuition.
"Where did we say before that if those contained objects cannot be contained according to rules, abnormal phenomena will occur?"
"Yes, the doctor has seen some. The icebreaker of Rhine Life can cause huge damage to the shield value, and there is also a belt used to release power. In addition, there are rule books and dice. I don't know what they will be like yet. anomaly."
Zhou Jinru said as he walked: "I know something about dice. People who hold dice can't help but gamble, become arrogant, and lose miserably in the end. The rule book... I heard Miss Mapel say that they run a group together. When playing a game, few of the characters I play make it to the end; most of them start out smooth sailing, then the plot suddenly takes a turn for the worse, and finally die tragically.”
"Aren't you worried, doctor? The rule book is with you."
Zhou Jinru sighed: "Even if I'm worried, I can't let it go. If it causes any trouble to me, I'll be the first to have it torn into pieces by the phantom. I can never give it to anyone else."
Mingyue Xin: "..."
Zhou Jinru seemed to be explaining, he said: "Faced with this situation, the easiest way is not to break the rules, but to tear up the book. If you ask me to bet on the table, I will overturn the table for you."
"Is this a threat?"
"This is something to discuss."
Suddenly, Zhou Jinru saw the sky on his right light up. The firelight dispelled a lot of fog, and even half of the sky was burned red.
Someone set a fire!
…
…
The tongues of fire kept licking the ruins, illuminating the white-haired Drak's face, making it look particularly ferocious.
The warehouse filled with a large amount of debris was caught in the fire, and the thick black smoke blended into the night. I believe it will not be long before the whole city knows about it.
"Your Highness."
The white-haired Drake raised his right hand: "The warehouse of the Borg Group is ahead. Let the steam mecha attack."
A dozen large steam mechas with a height of four meters have lifted heavy firepower modules. In such weather, it is impossible for drones to take off, and the steam mechas have no natural enemies. Their attack is almost irresistible. of.
"Fire!"
Boom boom boom!
A row of white-smoking missiles rushed towards the warehouse complex, and a series of explosions instantly destroyed a building.
"Change the formation, be careful of the Sakaz magician troops!"
Following the order, Shenchi's troops quickly adjusted their direction, and figures emerged one after another from the ruins.
