Chapter 143: Another World (27)

To this day, it seems that the plot has progressed to the end.
Although so many plots were skipped in the middle, Shao Ci was too lazy to care about those plots. Anyway, they have been passed down by God! There is also the protagonist halo, which should be fine.
There are still five monsters that have not been purified ... Ah, such things will be said later.
However, Shao Ci always felt that he hadn't changed much except his body was a bit stronger than before. Where did he feel that he had ten times more force value ... Is it because he was too salty ...
After a few days in the temple, the Pope sent a team to start with Shao Ci and others.
This team looks quite reliable, and there are many precious items like teleporting scrolls and space rings. Let Shao Ci increase his confidence, at least so don't worry about dying before you see the Demon King.
It was then transferred directly to the border with a teleportation array.
This place is very close to the devil's territory. There are no residents except the army stationed here. You can see the forest full of black mist when you look up.
Of course, there is still a considerable distance from this place to the palace of the demon king. It will take at least ten days to reach it. There are still many monsters on the road. I can imagine how hard the process will be.
After a night's rest here, the crowd set off. Because of his physical relationship, Shao Ci rode in a carriage like other physically weak magicians and clergymen. Anyway, everyone knows that he is not the same as an ordinary brave.
And Wendell was naturally the object of alienation from others at first. After all, he was a suspect who assassinated the pope, and now even if he is whitewashed by the current pope, others can't believe him for a while, let alone accept it. Is actually a close friend of the brave.
But it is amazing that in just a few days, everyone has a little respect for him, and all of them have the light of worship, and think that Wendell is indeed the best person to assist the brave.
After all, when encountering a monster, Wendell will always be the first to rush forward, and his strength and personality are the type of brave in the standard people's hearts, coupled with the faint aura of the protagonist. Such results were achieved in such a short time.
Shao Ci feels very relieved about this, and more and more feels that the plot is on track ...!
As for the difference after accepting the inheritance, he was also very concerned, but considering that it is estimated that it is a deeper thing that was not mentioned in the original text, Shao Ci did not mean to solve the mystery.
He just came to this world to do tasks! As for conspiracy, he wouldn't care!
So the reassuring Shao Ci fell asleep directly in the carriage-as a brave, the carriage he was riding was of course the best, and there was a magic array to prevent shock, and sitting on it felt quite comfortable.
Then Shao regretted it, regretting why he was so slack in the devil's territory.
Yes, he ... dreamed of the devil.
In front of it was a tall palace, with a gloomy atmosphere, climbing the dark vines everywhere. There does not seem to be a day here. A blood moon hangs in mid-air, making the places covered by the moonlight with a bit of halo.
"... Ah." Shao Ci's face was already ugly.
He remembered that there seemed to be three more tests for the fiance and himself to become fiances, and there were only two tests left.
I knew he would ask the Pope to bring something amulet-like to him! It ’s almost the end and we have to face this kind of breaking! What to do if you accidentally make a lunch!
Although Shao Ci didn't want to go in very much, but there was no room for refusal now ... He had to sigh and slowly walked up the long steps.
The boots stepped on the ground and made a crisp sound. Shao Ci always felt that the sound was strange. Wouldn't it be so loud to step on a stone, but it is just a dream anyway, and nothing happens.
When he reached the top, he could see the appearance in the hall.
Shao Ci hasn't seen what the Demon King's residence looks like, but he can be sure that the palace that appears in the dream is definitely the real Demon King's palace.
In the hall, the handsome man with long black hair and a different-colored pupil leaned against the throne with all his spare time. After seeing Shao's speech, his eyes were dark and he said, "You are here."
"Yes, yes." Shao Ci was quite vacant in his heart. After all, he was still outside with a group of people to come and fight against the Demon King.
"I know exactly what you are doing." The devil said lightly, stood up and walked towards Shao Ci.
"Slump." Shao Ci immediately wanted to run, but was unsuccessful. As soon as he stepped back, he was tripped over by a force of fans and fell to the ground with a very bad posture.
If the devil wants to kill him, he should have killed it just now, and he still has no hope of leaving alive. Shao Ci thought sadly.
"Be assured, I won't kill you." As Shao expected, the devil said, "I said it before, your strength is not taken into account by me, even if there are more people It's just for death. "
There was no taunt in his tone, but a near-indifferent attitude, indeed, as he said, not treating others as opponents at all.
"However, I will still be angry if you do this." The devil's tone was cold, and he reached out and pinched Shao's chin, squinting his eyes slightly. "What are you going to do to calm my anger?"
Before waiting for Shao Ci to answer, the demon king pulled him directly, and Shao ran into the devil's arms by surprise. At that moment, he felt an extremely powerful force sleeping in the other's body, and then took a few steps back quickly.
Such power ... can he really fight it? For a moment, Shao Ci's heart became skeptical.
"Look." The demon king didn't care about Shao's strange expression at all, but just looked in one direction.
Shao Ci looked down his line of sight, and saw the delicate rose blooming next to the palace, which was even brighter red in the moonlight, chilling like blood, exuding a strange smell.
"If you want to quell my anger ..." The Devil said lightly, "There I will find what I have left."
Shao Ci: "Hmm ...?" What is this fairytale-like expansion!
"If you don't," the devil turned and looked around, with a smile in those beautiful eyes. "I don't think you want to know what I will do."
"I'll go now!" Shao Ci persuaded immediately. "But what is it?" It's impossible to find a needle in a haystack.
The devil said, "You will understand when you find it."
"Okay ..." Shao Ci had no other choice, and walked towards the flowers.
Surprisingly, Shao Ci was relieved that none of these roses had thorns.
He walked aimlessly in the flowers, looking for something he didn't know what it would be, and couldn't rest, after all, the demon king kept staring at it.
... wait, he can use his mental power.
Shao's spirits rose, but he heard a message from behind, "Can't use other power."
Shao Ci: "... wow."
Damn it, because this is a fantasy constructed by the demon king, so he knows what he wants to do?
Shao Ci sighed deeply and continued to look for it.
Suddenly, he felt there was something wrong around him. Shao Ci focused his attention and noticed that the breath of the flowers beside him was different from the others.
"Here it is!" Shao Ci stooped down, trying to pick up the shiny object on the ground, and found that the thing in his palm was a ring.
"It's okay." The voice of the demon came from behind, and he seemed to smile with a bit of smile. "It was found so soon. Is it worthy to be brave?"
Shao Ci was relieved. No matter what it was, it was a good thing to find it anyway. He turned around and wanted to give the ring to the other party, but was pinched his wrist.
Shao Ci froze for a moment, staring blankly at the demon king, suddenly startled in his heart, did he say that the other party suddenly regretted, ready to punish him? !!
Later, Shao Ci saw that the demon king with a different-colored pupil smiled at him in the moonlight, and then he put the ring on Shao Ci's finger. "Since you found it so hard, Then I will give it to you. "
Shao Ci: "?????"
The moment when the ring was worn on Shao Ci's hand, a dazzling light burst out. Shao Ci could feel that something was flowing into his body with his fingers in an instant, and there was nothing unusual in the next moment.
After doing all this, the demon king seemed very satisfied, bowed his head and said, "Well, as I think, it is quite suitable for you."
Shao Ci couldn't help but ask, "Wait, this thing ... why am I going out, will it appear in my hands?"
"This is of course." The devil looked at him with interest, as if he had deliberately made such a thing difficult for him. "Since it is a brave man, take care of it yourself."
Shao Ci: "..." It seems that the other party really resents the identity of the brave.
"So, the second test has been completed." The Devil said indifferently.
Shao Ci looked at him in surprise, "This, it's that simple?" He thought he would do something else.
Devil said: "Do you want any test, I can think now."
Shao Ci quickly waved his hand: "No no no no !!"
Anyway, these tests are definitely what the demon wants now, who knows what he is thinking!
"Well, as long as you know, I'm happy, and the test is enough to complete it."
It's really casual ... if the Devil is in a bad mood, the test will not be complete. But there is no one to verify this, after all, the unlucky person who has proposed to the Demon King for so many years is just a shame.
The devil bowed his head, reached out and stroked Shao Ci's cheek, but his voice suddenly cooled down, "I know what you are going to do, and I won't blame you for it ... but you have to think clearly."
Shao Ci: "What ..." He suddenly realized that what the other party was about to say now might be very important.
"That guy is not a good guy. If you help him, there will only be one in the end." The Devil said indifferently.
"You, you mean, the Pope of the Holy Capital ... no, not him ... yes ..." Shao Ci could not speak anymore. Obviously, the person referred to in the word of the devil is the that the people of this continent believe.
Shao Ci didn't know anything about this. He just didn't want to know more, but now things seem to be moving in some bad directions.
The demon king looked at Shao Ci's expression and knew what he was thinking. "It seems that you also noticed something. So let's say, if you want to escape, you can only-"
Before this sentence was finished, when the carriage was bumpy, Shao Ci suddenly sobered up.
The driver immediately explained that because he had just hit a monster, Shao Ci could not say anything.
"Why exactly is there a monster at this time?" Shao Ci was still thinking about the sentence said by the demon, and he felt a little annoyed in his heart, feeling that it must be a very important thing.
I feel that this task will not be completed so smoothly.
But now it's no use thinking about it anymore, Shao Ci can't sleep when lying on the carriage again, so he sits up, and when he raises his hand, he sees the ring on his hand.
"Ah, there is still this trouble." Shao Ci sighed and studied the ring carefully.
This ring looks very ordinary, it seems to be made of silver. In short, no matter how you look at it, it has nothing to do with the devil, not even a little magic, but if you want to tear it off, you ca n’t take it out. … It doesn't matter. Anyone can't see anything anyway.
Shao Ci was a bit arrogant and thought about it, but he didn't know what the ring meant ...
But think about the previous picture, in the rose from the back, and then put on a ring, and the smile of the devil.
Wait, this, if you ignore the blood moon, why is it so like ... Shao Ci doesn't want the devil in his heart to be associated with that word, but, but, how can this be so similar to what other people do when they propose? Ah hey!
In the tangle of Shao Ci, the sky soon darkened, and everyone was not ready to move on, finding an open space to camp.
The strength of the monster here is still in the range of relatively salty fish. Shao has not shot at all. Wendell and they have already solved the monster.
The food we eat is dry food and potions, and no one dares to eat the things in this forest that has been polluted by magic gas.
During the break, some older knights began to talk about higher-level monsters. "When you move forward a little distance, high-level humanoid monsters will appear, and those monsters are not so easy to deal with."
"These monsters all seem to be called demons on the other side of the demon world, and they have far more power than ordinary monsters, and they are shameless and cunning."
"Even I heard that some monsters will turn into ordinary people and mix into the human army, and most people can't detect what is wrong with them."
Speaking of this crowd, they still have a lot of fear. Obviously, I have heard many such examples, "Fortunately, there must be magic in the monster, so it will reveal its identity."
Shao Ci: "... but we are full of magic in this forest, wouldn't we be unaware of it?"
Shao is a brave man. Of course, no one dares not to listen. Someone immediately said respectfully: "Master brave, we are all holy people, with holy spirit on our bodies, magic is not so easily contaminated. Enemies must be disguised by the enemy. "
"So it is." Shao nodded and nodded. Is this why the Saint does not need the army and magicians of other countries to help ...
Although Shao Ci has seen a lot of high-level monsters, he still feels he doesn't know much about this.
In short, he knows that they will encounter more high-level monsters next, but they are extremely powerful. They are all under the direct control of the demon king. If you don't defeat them, you won't see the demon king.
After all, how to fight boss without upgrading mobs.
And over there, Wendell and others went to look around, and by the way arranged a magic circle around them, and finally came back.
Wendell naturally sat beside Shao Ci, smiling and telling him what he had just done.
Shao Ci nodded absently, but Wendell suddenly grabbed his wrist.
"What's wrong?" Shao Ci was a little puzzled. He looked down and saw the ring on his hand.
Oops, because everyone else didn't notice the ring, he relaxed at once, Wendel didn't know if he would see what ...
"It's nothing." Wendell returned to his normal expression and said, "I just remembered that you didn't like to wear such things before, so I was a little surprised."
"I just wear it casually." Shao Ci breathed a sigh of relief and quickly shifted the subject. "Did you encounter any high-end monsters?"
"If you encounter high-level monsters, you won't be back so soon." Wendell spoke, and touched Shao's hair comfortably. His light blue eyes were full of smiles. "But it doesn't matter, as long as I have Now, they won't hurt you. "
Since the last time he accepted the inheritance, Wendell ’s eyes are much lighter than before, and Shao Ci has doubted anything. He tried several times and found no problems, not to mention he thought that a protagonist like Wendell should be fine. So I didn't take it seriously.
"Huh!" Shao nodded his head, and after strengthening his physique, he can now use a lot of powerful divine magic and magic ... Although it is impossible to stop the demon, but ordinary high-end monsters are fine.
Afraid, I ’m afraid that after encountering those monsters, the system will require him to purify. What ca n’t be purified under such a large crowd? Hey!
After talking about the strategy again, they were ready to rest.
Of course, Shao Ci didn't need to watch or anything, he just fell asleep while lying in the tent.
He hopes to see the devil, so that he can ask the other party what he didn't finish during the day.
But if you think about it, you know that things will not go so smoothly, so after entering the dream, instead of seeing the demon king, he had a very ordinary dream. Of course, this "ordinary" is relatively ordinary and weird.
The dream is blue and white, and the blue lake is in front of him. Shao Ci only feels like he has no shape, and looks down at the lake with a strange angle.
The lake was familiar, but he couldn't remember what it was.
Then the body fell into the water like it was being pulled by something.
This area of ​​water is not like ordinary lake water. The inside is very clean, without any impurities, and there is no fish or shrimp.
Shao Ci was a little puzzled, but his body was sinking more and more suddenly, with silver hair flowing in front of him.
... is Siren!
"...!" Shao opened his mouth in surprise. He didn't have a little strangeness. He instantly felt a sense of suffocation. He was struggling with a lot of water in his mouth.
And he finally remembered where the lake was familiar, this is the lake where he saw Siren when he first started!
How long ago this happened, he thought that Siren had no relationship with himself anymore! !!
Struggling, he clasped him with both hands, Shao Ci opened his eyes, and met a pair of Morim's golden pupils.
--Got you.
After that, Shao Ci went dark.

"Ha ha ... ha ha ...!" Shao Ci sat up suddenly, breathing fresh air in a big mouth, and the feeling of suffocation just made him fresh in his memory.
"Is it all right?" Winderton opened his tent and looked at Shao with concern. He had been vigil outside.
"No, it doesn't matter ..." Shao said, "I just had a nightmare ..."
"Do you need some water?" Wendell asked.
"Thank you." Shao did not quit, and finally felt calm after drinking hot water.
The dream just now is too real. Shao Ci felt that it might not be a dream, but what Siren really did. he
What the is going on in this world, why can anyone enter his dreams casually! Or is this a foreknowledge dream?
"Ah." It felt more and more troublesome, if only we could go quickly.
Outside the tent, Wendell's expression became cold instantly. He reached out and fiddled with a small knife, and said lowly, "Sure enough, these dirty monsters should not stay in this world ..."
The blade accidentally cut through the fingertips, but no blood flowed down. Only the light of star dust flashed away, and the wound was restored as before.
