"Hush! Hush! You two, stop nagging, you are going to see your mother soon!"
As soon as Hong Ling finished speaking, a sudden halo of light quickly passed over their bodies, as if they had passed through a "membrane" or "shell" or something like that.
Yu was surprised to find that he had arrived at an exquisite, gorgeous and dazzling palace!
The crystal clear diamond pillars were combined into a colorful gem corridor. There were dots of neon flashing everywhere on the floor and walls. The three of them seemed to have stepped into a fairy tale country, floating along the colorful corridor towards the palace. .
…just still maintaining those weird postures from before…
It was only then that Yu realized that Zi Ling, who was holding her thigh, had grown a lot, maybe even taller than herself. If she was similar to Hong Ling beside her...
…but why does Ziling’s legs kneel on her own feet…
…What a strange posture…
"...Little brother! Don't think too much...this is all mom's idea..."
Zi Ling's face turned red, but she tried hard to restrain her shame, and looked up at the young man tenderly and bravely...
...It seems that even if she is no longer put in such a pose, she is still willing to watch like this...
"Little brother, you are really... so beautiful..."
Seeing such a familiar burning gaze, the young man who still didn't know how to deal with it quickly lost his battle and tried to look elsewhere.
Around this palace, thousands of countless things that Hong Ling and Zi Ling call "star cores" are also floating outside the palace, leisurely like the first snow rising from petals...
...Such a beautiful residence, such an elegant environment, this strong man can't seem to find anything scary...
"Stop talking nonsense! Soon you will see what unpredictable and immeasurable terror is!"
Hong Ling lost no time in mocking him, but with a high-pitched tremor that could not be concealed:
"Zi Ling!!! You nymphomaniac! How long has it been? Why don't you hide your true spirit as deep as possible and wait to serve it to your mother as a dessert?! Are you going to die... Really! Too lazy to talk to you, wasting my time..."
"Little brother, I still don't know your name..."
"Yu, I chose it myself. I forgot my previous name..."
"...Little brother is really good at joking. Of course he chose his own name. Hong Ling and I are the same way, but we just refer to our mother's name..."
"Your mother, what should I call her?"
"Zero, my mother's name is Zero."
...Zero...what a strange name...
But considering that this strong man comes from another world, there is nothing difficult to understand.
"Be careful! It's coming soon!"
Hong Ling's restless voice came out from her body, and Zi Ling also hurriedly changed. Yu saw a faint halo around Zi Ling's body, and then quickly collapsed toward the inside, condensing to the size of a thumb in the deepest part of the body. But it's several times bigger than the one inside Hong Ling's body...
It seemed that Zi Ling wanted to continue shrinking, but she seemed very weak. Even Yu could clearly feel her panic...
…Hope everything goes well…
The young man wished secretly.
...I should have floated into the main hall. Judging from the brightness of the gems and gorgeous carvings decorated around it, I guessed that the "Zero Mother" should be in front!
...But I was facing the direction of travel, so I couldn't see the whole main hall clearly.
They stopped quickly, and many sticky-looking tentacles suddenly shot out from the space, wrapping around their limbs and waist and abdomen, circling several times in each place, but the feeling of touching the body was It was very silky, and there was a faint fragrance lingering on the tip of his nose.
As if he was not satisfied with the shape of his prey, these tentacles suddenly exerted force, Zi Ling was pulled off the thigh and hung to the side, and Yuya was pulled back very roughly.
In front of him, in the middle of this exquisite main hall, there was only a single small bed made of crystal, suspended in the center of the main hall, with gauze curtains covered with colorful gems hanging down around it, making him unable to After seeing clearly the appearance of the owner inside, he could only vaguely make out the outline of a woman, lying quietly inside.
In addition, Yu also discovered that the book that had been snatched was actually clamped by two open poles with splints that were several meters above the gauze curtain and hung in front of the small bed. above.
A large section of the support pole close to the book page was engraved with patterns, and a continuous light shone on the book. The sharp-eyed Yu recognized that those dense patterns were all the characters for "flow" in the basic runes!
——It can give Yuanli a certain degree of fluidity. This is very common in my mother-in-law's house. It is in the magic circle containing the "flow" character and some other runes.
Those magic circles can spray water mist or summon strong winds, and Xiaosan and Xiaowu often use them when cleaning the room.
This kind of basic cleaning array is now as basic as brooms and rags, and is sold in many magic equipment stores.
...This strong man seems to have no understanding of the current magic science. If these "flow" characters really want to clean the books...
However, these hundreds of crudely superimposed single runes were blown up by strong winds as expected. The pages of the book were pressed tightly by the strong wind, and even some corners were blown and folded, which looked extremely pitiful...
…Um? The book is... "The Adventures of the Princess and the Seven Dwarf Knights"...
"Seven stars, it can be called a classic" - this is the comment left by the unnamed reviewer of the novel, and I remember it very clearly...
…Is this powerful man known as the “Phantom of the Library” going to war just for this chivalric novel that has no use at all except for entertainment…
...Or maybe the entire bookshelf of novels was prepared for this strong man to kill time?
...Speaking of which, I have never seen anyone in the academy borrow novels before...
"Hey, mom doesn't seem to be awake. She will bite us if she catches us..."
Zi Ling's true spirit began to swim and quietly leaned out of her body.
"Idiot Zi Ling! Look at that book and look at our postures. This is the mother of 'Sleeping Beauty'!!! Have you forgotten how scary the role play is?! I still don't know which chapter this is. The plot...is wrong! Even if you know the plot, so what! Mom will change it at any time...How dare you show your face? You are looking for death!"
Zi Ling immediately shrank back to her original position, trembling inside her body...
"…role play?"
"Yu! Shut up! You're so annoying! Remember! Your body will be able to move after the opening ceremony. Just do whatever I tell you to do. Don't make any unnecessary movements!"
"...Uh, okay..."
"Okay, you big-headed devil! The more I look at you, the more unpleasant I become!"
Hong Ling, who has always maintained an "arrogant" look, got angry out of nowhere:
"Don't think that we are safe when our energy is replenished! In this space, mother is the master! Mother is God! Everything that does not meet mother's standards will be corrected! Anyone who does not follow mother's script will regret it! That bad old man from before , I thought I could fool my mother by making some shabby novels, but in the end, I conjured up so many mothers, and in the end, they were all unlucky... Besides, isn't it just role-playing? It's just a play to make my mother happy, let him wear it She just dressed up as an old witch and didn't do such a simple thing. She actually wanted to escape because of her ability. She was pressed here like an ant by her mother for a long time. She had to perform the play hundreds of times before she was satisfied. How much energy we have wasted! It’s a pity that the two of us are being treated as snacks and have to do side jobs at the same time, and are squeezed into the same situation as before..."
"...It turns out that I want to cooperate with this strong man to perform the plot in the novel. It won't be so scary..."
As for the old gentleman who was forced to pretend to be an old and ugly witch hundreds of times, Yu could still understand and sympathize with him.
"Brother, don't underestimate role-playing... After the official opening, all the plots in the novel will happen truthfully! You must know that this is the space inside your mother's body, which is in the middle of reality and illusion. As long as you consume energy, Mom is omnipotent! Any hurt that touches the soul and spirit body will be 100% real. It is 10,000 times more painful than physical injury! Also, even if you die during the performance, That kind of pain will also be presented realistically, although you won’t actually die..."
"Crow's mouth purple water chestnut!!!"
When Hong Ling heard this, her anger surged. The true spirit in her body immediately turned into a red ball of light, and she shouted angrily:
"Don't you have an AC number in your mind about any of your attributes!!! The bad things you said are always better than the good things!!! The most terrifying person besides my mother is you!!! Was I the big devil who destroyed the world in my previous life...Follow me You are so unlucky every day!!!"
"...but...but I'm not wrong either..."
The space suddenly darkened, and everything in the main hall was completely shrouded in darkness, making it impossible to see even one's fingers.
"Shh, it's about to begin..."
Three beams of light streamed out and hit them respectively. Under the dazzling light, Yu could only vaguely see many shadowy things flowing behind the darkness...
In the void, a low and pleasant narration voice followed:
“The princess was cursed by a vicious sorcerer and lay as a beautiful collection in an secluded palace.
"The wizard summoned nine evil and powerful demons to guard her day and night!
"In order to always have the beauty of the princess, the wizard turned himself into a monster!
"The princess's dwarf knights went through countless bloody battles, and finally entered the palace together with the prince who admired the princess. Only two of the seven dwarf knights were left with bruises...
"Please enjoy - The Adventures of the Princess and the Seven Dwarf Knights - The Final Chapter!"
An exciting melody sounded out of thin air, and the darkness in the space gradually faded away. The three of them, together with the crystal bed not far away, were held in the air by the circular stage that appeared at their feet at some unknown time.
Outside the stage, those shining star cores that were originally floating around the palace suddenly surrounded the stage. They were clustered together, flashing alternately, like the whispering audience.
The tentacles that had been holding the three of them finally let go, and Yu stepped on the stage tentatively. The down-to-earth feeling made him feel more at ease.
Two screams of pain that could not be concealed suddenly came out, and they were quickly swallowed into the stomach!
The bodies of Hong Ling and Zi Ling suddenly burst open with countless wounds, and blood splattered like real people! The sharp long sword that was dyed red and appeared between his hands at some point, touching the ground, and the golden armor with dents all over his body!
"...Idiot, don't move..."
Hong Ling endured the pain and roared in a low voice!
The narrator's voice continued to sound low, accompanied by sad and regretful music...
"After entering the palace, the last two brave dwarf knights were close to their limit and dying!
"Knight Nitzel couldn't stand with his legs, so he struggled to kneel and hug the prince, entrusting him with his obsession to save the princess!
"And Knight Huaisu, although he still maintains a posture of contempt for all enemies in front of him, his noble soul fell into silence after rushing into this palace..."
At this time, the melancholy music was replaced by a high-pitched aria, and extremely holy fireworks flew over the stage...
"...Zi Ling! I knew it!!!..."
Hong Ling's voice stopped suddenly, and she stood there quietly like a sculpture, her eyes were dead, and she had no sparkle at all!
"...It's none of my business..."
Zi Ling's timid voice came...
Under the visor with only a pair of eyes exposed, Yu's cold sweat flowed...
... Just... so dead? !
He wanted to get closer to Hong Ling, but was hugged by Zi Ling, who had been crawling since just now and finally came to his feet!
Several large pieces of Ziling's calf muscles were shaved off, leaving almost all of the white bones exposed! But she still struggled to curl up her legs and fell limply on Yu's feet. The black and red blood wiped out extremely dazzling drag marks on the floor...
"Your noble...His Royal Highness the Prince...cough! Ahem! Huaisu has left. It seems that my end...is here..."
...Don't move, little brother! I'll tell you the lines...
...Hong Ling, she...she will be fine...
...No, she will come back to life as soon as the curtain bell rings...
"Your Highness, our princess... I leave it to you!"
...Little brother, answer quickly!
"Uh, okay..."
……no! To arouse your emotions, repeat it in the most firm tone!
"Okay! I promise you!"
Yu shouted loudly and subconsciously raised the sword in his hand, pointing straight ahead...
...Perfect...The little brother is so handsome!
If "Knight Nitzel" hadn't been in a dying state, his eyes would have had red hearts and his palms would have hurt...
……Then what…
……wait! Wait for the narration, if my mother is not satisfied and wants to do it all over again, she will shout "click"...
...Okay, this is exactly the same as some small trainee theaters on the roadside in the human world...
The narration came as expected, and there seemed to be a little more satisfaction...
"His Royal Highness is indeed a hero praised by everyone in the human world. His integrity, bravery and unreserved love for the princess finally allowed him to step onto the stage of the decisive battle! The only thing standing between him and the princess is The ten most powerful demons in this palace are in command, hold the sword in your hand and fight!"
Halfway through the narration, the tentacles that wrapped around Hong Ling and Zi Ling began to squirm, hanging them next to them. Balls of meat-like things were continuously sucked out of their bodies and flowed inside the tentacles, rapidly. Disappear into the void…
The bodies of Hong Ling and Zi Ling also slowly shrank!
As soon as the narrator finished speaking, in front of Yu, there were really ten aliens with huge figures and ferocious faces, covered in black energy, who looked like they were not good at first glance, appeared in front of them out of thin air!
They were grinning cruelly, waving flails, axes, hammers and other thick and heavy weapons in their hands, all stained with blood!
"...Little brother...my true spirit is going to be hidden first. Don't worry, I will notify you as soon as possible when I need lines..."
"...By the way, little brother, what profession and level are you at now?"
"...Zi Ling, can you tell me first, what level are these 'demon leaders'..."
"They, so-so and so-so, are just four or five-star martial arts masters in the human world. They are not strong at all..."
"!!... But Zi Ling... I'm not even a junior professional yet!"
"It's okay, little brother, I believe you! After all, you have filled up more than 90% of our energy, which is much better than the two of us! The total energy of these guys is less than one-tenth of ours. Woolen cloth…
"And they can only fight in close combat. Just swim with them. I have seen your speed before..."
Zi Ling curled up in the farthest place from the tentacles, and did not forget to add:
"Come on little brother!"
...Ten martial arts masters, such a powerful instructor Qian Yin is just a martial arts master...
...Energy and fighting are two different things...
...Is this something that can be done by just "working hard"...
The aliens not far away seemed to be urging him, and suddenly they charged forward en masse, their weapons held high above their heads were about to hit their faces!
...Looks like we have to work hard again...
..."Role playing" is really scary...
The emperor kicked his feet on the ground, and with a spin, he was able to dodge the alien's blade in a fraction of a second. Several strands of his hair were torn apart by the cold light, and were pressed against the armor by the strong wind...
Two shrill screams were pointed directly at his legs, and the biting coldness almost froze the blood of the entire legs. He quickly exerted strength on his waist and abdomen, and barely dodged a somersault, but as soon as his feet touched the ground, a fistful of door panels appeared. The hammer-axe covered with barbs hit the chest straight! With no more energy left to dodge, he only had time to bend down and bend his knees, holding the long sword in his hand horizontally and trying to block...
The weapons collided, creating a huge roar. Yu felt like a small sampan in the tsunami. The irresistible force instantly blew him away. His body hit the invisible barrier around the stage and hung on it with a "snap". , and after a few seconds, all his remaining strength was gone, and he slid down...
The sword dug deeply into the armor on his chest. If he hadn't been lucky enough to block it with his sword, this blow would have caused him to be decapitated!
The sternum was probably broken a lot, and there was huge pain everywhere in the body. The alien monsters in the distance were beating the floor with their weapons, making unexplained but cruel roars!
They did not charge again, but slowly approached Yu, locking him with bloodthirsty energy. The prey's dying struggle and desperate wailing seemed to be their only pleasure!
——The real demon is nothing more than this...
No! Some thoughts immediately told him that these were just the minions of the demon army in front of him. The truly terrifying demon demon could kill thousands of them with just a breath!
However, to him now, these ten monsters "minions" are already as great as demons...
The long sword in his hand was extremely tough. It was still straight after being hit by such a huge force. The dented breastplate seemed to be something extraordinary. The dent was slowly returning to its original shape. He struggled to hold the long sword and stood up with all his strength.
...powerful enemy! Your weak self! It’s an almost desperate situation again!
...It seems that today is destined to be a difficult day...
...I don’t know whether I will live or die...The Dharma God inheritance is unable to fight anymore...What else can I rely on?
…calm! Be calm!
...frozen calmness! Calmness that ignores life and death!
…and then…go observe!
…observe everything! Observe in detail!
He was extremely focused, and the scene in his eyes gradually became distorted. Many tiny details were spread out in front of his eyes as if through a prism filled with water drops!
In the empty space deep in his eyes, the golden energy gurgling from the fetters thread was gradually staining the inexplicable and mysterious ring that seemed to have been there for a long time!
...Liu Yuan...Open!
As the two groups of brilliance lit up stubbornly and tenaciously, in an instant, the world in front of them suddenly turned into a dark gray gelatinous ocean, exactly the same color as the tentacles that caught them, without any free-flowing energy!
And those ten demons were filled with an unusually cold black aura. Although the flow of power in the demons' bodies was completely invisible, Yu was able to identify their respective outlines from the evaporation of armor and weapons...
Liu Yuan's vision had new changes. Everything he saw was divided into countless tiny fragments of scenery! Every piece is clear and clear, and the short-term memories of the previous fights appear in my mind like a large background wall!
These scene fragments are intertwined and spliced together, like chains and nets, pouring down on this background wall. The extremely huge amount of information has far exceeded the limit that dozens or even hundreds of human beings can bear, but it is blocked by the stubborn burning flow. Yuan Guanghua easily refined and condensed it, and what was finally projected in front of him was only a dozen extremely rare pieces...
These dozens of fragments of the scene, without exception, all point to the demon with whom he was fighting!
I saw a ball of golden flames burning brighter and stronger at the top of the hammer ax the size of a door panel, quietly engulfing the hammer axe, suppressing the black aura emitted by the demon like a natural enemy!
…This is… energy! ! The energy of the rune placenta! The energy that Vin would give to me to maintain the Burning Spirit Technique!
At the moment of blocking, the hammer ax struck him through the long sword and breastplate. Only a very thin layer of soul-burning flames remained on his body, which was completely wrapped by the golden armor. The hammer ax might have No contact with them at all!
——Can just a little bit of breath contamination cause such significant damage? !
And the long sword in his hand was completely undamaged by the soul-burning flames! Instead, the spiritual flame gradually spread along the sword body, and many sparks were already jumping on the blades on both sides!
The golden flame burned the hammer ax in the demon's hand, etching distinct and deep grooves on the ax handle, and finally spread to the arm of the demon leader!
Realizing something was wrong, it quickly threw away its weapon, but it was too late! The light of the fire seemed to be thrown into extremely dry firewood, and the demon's black aura dissipated like boiling snow. The fire suddenly burst into flames and a fire dragon roared and engulfed the demon. Its body quickly vaporized and disappeared in an instant. Because of Hui Hui, he didn't even have time to let out a frightened roar!
——What can get rid of limited darkness must be a more advanced light, not to mention the energy that comes from the core of the rune placenta and is located at the origin of the world, and is infinitely close to the real light!
...Wen, you saved me again...
However, the tragic situation of their companions did not make the demons retreat. Their remaining sanity had already been filled with anger, and they rushed over with roars!
In front of them, Yu has already drawn his long sword and is ready!
…Come on, monsters!
After all, the demons at the level of martial arts masters could not resist the invasion of golden energy. Yu's body skills also had an advantage, and he quickly killed two more demons.
But when the remnants knew how powerful it was, they became more and more cunning and cruel!
They will throw weapons contaminated with energy like cannonballs, just to drive him closer to the battle circle of other monsters!
They raised their weapons and without hesitation penetrated the body of their comrade in the front row and pounced on him, just to lick a little blood from his body!
There is no mercy, no mercy, only bloodthirsty and ferocity! Only destruction and killing!
This may all be an illusory stage, but it restores the original appearance of demons from ancient times!
On the invisible barrier of the stage, Yu was knocked away again and again, spitting out a few mouthfuls of blood, and then stood up!
Then continue to move around! Keep pushing this body to its limits!
The few sets of basic combat skills have become more and more clear and concise under the countless evil smiles of the God of Death!
Although he couldn't last more than a few rounds and was knocked away, his fists, kicks and moves were increasingly filled with the smell of blood and fire!
When the last alien demon dissipated in the soul-burning flames, almost every part of the stage barrier was stained with blood!
Yu Changjian leaned on the ground and collapsed on the floor...
…Is this a monster?…
...Is this the mortal enemy of the human race...
...Even the minions are like this. How powerful must those countless demon legions be? ! What kind of tragic and fierce battles are the human warriors who have been fighting enemies all year round in the frozen soil of the north going through?
...Master Dharma God is right...
...The human world is really a world where we can only survive!
The golden energy is still gurgling, flowing endlessly on the increasingly thin fetters.
They stopped at Yu's broken bones and wounds, and the injuries all over his body healed quickly, but the soul-burning flames on his body became even weaker...
Yu reluctantly propped up his body and knelt down in the middle of the battlefield. He took off his helmet and put it aside.
After experiencing such a battle that was impossible to win, he is now a qualified warrior!
Those hundreds of days and nights of basic practice, every drop of sweat was not in vain!
If someone could witness this battle with their own eyes, would they still absolutely believe that crystal power and combat skills are the only yardstick for measuring strength?
——He has always been on the road to becoming stronger!
He may have experienced setbacks, and he may have been confused from time to time, but his footsteps never stopped at every moment!
Knowing one's shame and then being brave, knowing one's weakness and then trying to be strong is a brave person!
In this fragmented world under the dome, what can never be lacking is the brave!
Only the brave!
