"It's really strange..."
A rough and hoarse voice sounded in my heart.
That's the war demon talking.
Demons cannot be killed. After a demon is defeated, their soul and body are usually separated and sealed separately.
Over the long years, the war demon has long lost track of where its body is.
It appears in the form of a soul and needs to be attached to a living being in order to move.
It temporarily resides in Zuo Chang's body, and as "part of Zuo Chang's power", it participates in the battle for the title.
At this moment, it was keenly aware of an inexplicable "deviation" and couldn't help but say: "General Tianwang, I don't know how to explain the current situation."
Zuo Chang also felt strange in his heart: "Just say it, don't worry about whether I can understand it."
"Okay! I feel that your 'smell' has changed. You seem to have become a different person."
"...I don't think I should have changed."
The war demon agreed: "Yes. Your mind has not changed, and I have not felt the 'invasion of foreign objects'. You are still you. But your feelings to me have indeed changed... It's like you are playing a role." A whole new role.”
One second it was clearly a cook script, the next second he was wearing armor.
Zuo Chang is still Zuo Chang, but——
He is no longer a "title contender"; he has taken on a new identity.
Zuo Chang lowered his head, looked at the "Team Saw" hanging on his waist, and said in his heart: "The Team Saw is a task prop for this championship battle. Its function is to sense the position of each team member, but I Now I can no longer sense the position of others... It is possible that I have lost my 'qualification' for the competition."
The War Demon doesn't see this as a problem.
What really matters now is——
It asked: "Forfeited the qualifications for the competition, but did not leave the venue for the championship... General Tianwang, what role do you think you are playing now? What is our goal?"
have no idea.
Zuo Chang originally planned to fly directly to Blood Mist Ridge to look for the lost sword.
But now it seems...
Maybe following the "plot" is a better solution.
Previously in the study, old Malen insisted on accompanying Zuo Chang to Blood Mist Ridge despite his grandson's objections.
Zuo Chang had no reason to refuse.
He turned to look at Old Malen and asked, "Senior Malen, how do we get to Blood Mist Ridge?"
"Take a car."
There was a car parked in front of me.
The butler I saw earlier was wearing helmet and armor and seemed to be ready for adventure.
He turned to look at old Mullen and said, "Captain Mullen, can we set off now?"
Old Mullen held up his cane: "Let's go now!"
He took Zuo Chang and got into the carriage.
After all, Little Mascus was a city a thousand years ago, and no matter how good the roads were, they were far from smooth.
In the bumpy carriage, Old Malen looked at Zuo Chang and suddenly said: "Mr. Zuo... have you ever heard of 'brave'?"
Zuo Chang nodded: "Of course."
"Actually..."
Old Malen put his cane on his knees and looked at Zuo Chang.
The next moment, his left eye changed. After ripples, his pupils turned silvery white.
The change in eye color caused a drastic change in his temperament.
He looked divine now, not human.
Inexplicable words also appeared on old Mullen's silver eyes:
【Appraisal Eye】
Old Malen continued: "My eye is called the Appraisal Eye; and I am the 'Guide of the Brave'. I am a servant of the God of Heaven, specifically looking for suitable attendants for her."
"..."
Zuo Chang was already dizzy.
After all, he is just a game player. When it comes to game content and various mechanisms, he is naturally very familiar with them and can chat casually all night long.
but……
When it comes to upgrading the humanities and customs of the world, this is really his weakness.
Some of the history Zuo Chang was familiar with.
That's mainly because I was forced to read the backstory numerous times due to the constant grinding through the levels.
The "battle for the title" is not included here.
But listening to this meaning, could it be that...
Zuo Chang sat upright and asked, "Do I have the potential to become a brave man?"
Old Malen nodded seriously. He looked at Zuo Chang seriously: "Yes. From the moment you walked into my house, I discovered your uniqueness - the aura on your body and the sword I lost. The aura on the sword is very similar! I think you are the destined master of that sword!"
Zuo Changqi asked: "Your sword?"
"To be precise, that is not my sword. It is the sword of the brave. I am just the custodian of the sword of the brave."
Old Malen raised his hand and touched Zuo Chang's shoulder.
His colored eyes sparkled and he continued: "My eyes tell me that you may be its true master and the true brave I have been waiting for for a long time."
coming.
Zuo Chang was enlightened and thought he had grasped the current situation. His current identity is not a "participant in the title battle", but the legendary...
"The last brave man"?
He triggered the hidden mechanism of the championship battle, just like Sky City did at that time.
but why?
The hidden mechanism of Sky City is triggered because Zuo Chang has a full level of "uncanny craftsmanship".
The battle for the title is a cyclical mature activity. Has no one ever taken up the task of "finding the lost sword"?
Or……
Someone took it, but Zuo Chang had a trait that others didn't have, so that was why it was triggered?
Zuo Chang preferred the latter.
In the bumpy car, he thought to himself: "I have too many strange abilities. First of all, my origin is very special. I have all the things that can be maxed out, plus a 'God Badge'."
"Old Mullen said that he is a 'servant of the God of Heaven' who specializes in finding suitable attendants for the God of Heaven. So..."
Is it because of the god’s crest?
In his consciousness, the God's emblem glowed slightly, just like before.
The war demon sensed Zuo Chang's deep thoughts and immediately said: "General Heavenly King, don't worry about the cause. With my power and yours, what happened in the border town a thousand years ago is really not a challenge. What we have to think about now - is the ability to What kind of benefits are obtained. As for the cause..."
"When we see the 'Lost Sword', we will naturally know."
Zuo Chang heard this and thought it was true.
He said in his heart: "What is certain is that I am no longer a 'contestant'. I don't know what my status is now in the eyes of Mayumi and others."
"It should be in a state of being eliminated. Hehe."
There was teasing in the War Demon's tone.
"Your 'team saw' is out of action, isn't it?"
Yes.
Zuo Chang's team's short saw has failed.
In the eyes of Mayumi and others, this may be a sign of elimination.
The war demon continued: "This is not a bad thing. Your three subordinates have good talents, but they are too immature. As the saying goes, 'the wind knows the strength of the grass, and the danger shows the master', you just have this opportunity to test it out." Test their quality!"
tomorrow! The series continues!
