Endless Debt

Freeport is a seaport city located in the narrow countries. Due to its unique geographical location, along the Rhine River flowing into the sea, ships can go upstream and reach many areas within the Rhine League. If they sail towards the sea, then Many of the coastal cities of the Kogadel Empire can be easily reached.

The intersecting waterways overlap at the Free Port. It is like a hub of trade, connecting cities scattered all over the world. Every day, countless ships arrive at the Free Port, and countless ships sail away.

Like the terrifying whirlpool that swallows ships on the sea, Freeport is also a golden whirlpool that swallows countless wealth.

"I have been to Freeport several times when I was young," Jeffrey commented. "It feels very strange to me there, just like another Oath City, Opos, the coastal Oath City Opos."

Jeffrey's assessment is correct. Freeport, like Oath City Opos, welcomes countless strangers every day. A huge flow of people travels through the city. Different cultural wills collide with each other. In the chaos and wealth, Inside, there are piles of steel creations.

Bologg walked out of the train station. The sun was bright and harsh, making it hard to keep his eyes open. There was still some distance from the sea, but Bologg could vaguely hear the sound of the ocean tide, rushing around him.

During the second half of the journey, Boluogo and his party did not encounter any abnormalities. There were no enemy attacks, and there were no potential opponents with ulterior motives... Even the ordinary person who seemed to have solved the demon, Boluogo did not notice anything strange.

Calm and calm.

The journey was so smooth and simple. When he stepped onto the platform and stepped on the solid ground, Bologo realized belatedly that he had arrived at the Free Port.

"Have you been here?"

Aimu came to Boluogo's side and asked curiously.

"I've been here before, more than sixty years ago."

Boluogo looked at the city from a distance. The buildings here were not as dense and tall as those in Opos. The sky was completely exposed in front of his eyes. In the harbor in the distance, densely packed ships were piled up, and their masts were like a forest of spears. , the decks are connected together, paving new land on the sea.

There is plenty of daylight here, but at the end of the seaside, there is a group of disturbing clouds hovering, and a storm is lingering offshore, which reminds Boluogo of his bad experience in the windy highlands.

"At that time, this was a vital shipping hub. In order to capture this place, we launched a tug-of-war with the Kogadel Empire for several months."

Boluogo continued, "Fortunately, the fierce battles broke out on the sea, and I am an Army soldier. I just need to hide in the bunker on the shore."

This can be regarded as one of the few lucky experiences in Bologo's military career.

"If you go diving in the harbor now, you might still be able to find the wreckage of those battleships."

The Freeport in Borogo's eyes was gradually covered with a layer of burning fireworks, and the buildings turned into gray ruins. The ships on the sea sank one after another, and the fuel leaked out, setting off an insurmountable wall of fire on the sea. Burning the sky red.

Blinking his eyes, the crazy scene disappeared and turned into a gradually deserted platform. All the passengers were gone, leaving only a few of them standing there, like a group of lost penguins.

Everyone looked at Lebius in unison, waiting for his next instructions.

"Let's go."

Lebius glanced at Boluogo and motioned to him, "Watch him."

Boluogo nodded, and the snake scale liquid formed an extremely slender silver thread, which was tightly wrapped around Dua's neck.

Boluogo's meaning was simple. As long as Dua made the slightest move, he would break Dua's neck.

Dua didn't feel much panic, but instead looked forward to the upcoming journey.

Boluogo can understand Duva's mood. He is like a fanatical fan of King Solomon. He has successfully made Duva break through the seal of King Solomon's real name. Now Duva just wants to know more about King Solomon...

This reminded Boluogo of the crazy people in the Zongge Band. They called themselves their fans and wanted to peek at their appearance every moment, leaving themselves in the spotlight like a pet for everyone to watch.

Boluogo walked quickly to Lebius and whispered, "Team leader, can one person be protected by multiple devils?"

Lebius asked, "Why do you ask about this?"

He did not wait for Boluogo to give an explanation, but said directly, "Theoretically, it is possible. All it takes is the condenser of the contract school to help the target sign contracts with multiple devils."

"But you have to know that protection does not come without a price, not only the impact on strength, but also the corruption of one's will and soul."

Lebius warned, "Just like the expansion of the alchemical matrix, it requires the growth of the soul to expand its capacity, while protection requires the reduction of the soul and the reduction of capacity."

"The will and soul of human beings who are protected will be seriously affected, and the effects of different protections may conflict with each other, or they may enhance each other."

Boluogo knows such examples, such as the protection of bloodthirsty recovery and the protection of evil and chaos. With the cooperation of the two, as long as there is enough flesh and blood, the enemy will be like a perpetual motion machine, gaining a steady stream of vitality and vitality. ether.

"The arrival of multiple blessings, different powers overlapping together, creating unknown possibilities, and at the same time, this impact will break through our 'load limit'."

"What will happen then?"

"Becoming a demon, or becoming a madman... I don't think it makes any difference."

Boluogo was silent for a moment and said in a very low voice, "Belphegor told me that the Unbound Poetry Society was corrupted and turned into the current Zongge Orchestra. Perhaps the current Zongge Orchestra has the responsibilities A person with double protection.”

"Double protection?"

Boluogo thought deeply that the demons he encountered earlier should be demons with only Belphegor's protection, but at that time they were already under the control of the Witch of Desire, and the hostile Sublimers they encountered later were The new generation members who are protected by the Desire Witch are not recognized by Belphegor.

The real danger is those enemies who have been approved by Belphegor and then throw themselves into the arms of the Desire Witch. The double protection and deceitful secret power will make them more difficult to deal with than regular enemies.

Boluogo said, "I don't know what Belphegor's protection is, but it's always good to be vigilant."

With double protection and his own weird secret power, Boluogo can already predict how difficult the enemy will be.

"Belfinger's protection?"

Lebius stopped and said in a voice that only Bologo could hear.

"Belphegor rarely lowers his protection. After all, you have seen his appearance. There are very few contract school condensers who can communicate with him. Most of the time, he personally lowers his protection... "

Lebius changed his tone, "What do you think Belphegor's protection will be?"

"I can only guess part of it," Bologo said his analysis. "Judging from the opponents I have encountered, protection itself is about amplifying one's own desires and can never be satisfied."

The hungry will never have enough to eat, and the happy will be numb and insensible, so Bologna can already imagine the original sin of sloth.

“The opposite price of laziness, huh?”

Lebius nodded in silence and wrote lightly, "Eternal labor, this is Belphegor's protection."

Protect and work forever.

Boluogo couldn't react for a while. The two of them were walking and chatting, and there were some scattered travelers around. Lebius talked about it casually, as if he was talking about what to eat in the evening.

"Compared with the protection of other devils, Belphegor's protection is not powerful, but correspondingly, the price is not that cruel... at least in my opinion."

Lebius spoke calmly, without hiding anything from Boluogo, "The Guild of Protection and Eternal Labor will keep the individual absolutely awake, enough to be immune to most psychological shocks. The price is literally, the individual will Working uncontrollably, even if the work is completed, you will find something else to do, just like obsessive-compulsive disorder, without a chance to rest until you die."

"The cruel thing is that many people who receive this protection will keep their consciousness awake during endless labor and exhaustion, and feel the process of gradual body collapse until death."

While Boluogo listened, he thought about what would happen when the two kinds of protection were mixed together.

Lebius knew far more about the devil than Borogo expected, which surprised Borogo, especially when he learned that Lebius had known about Belphegor's existence for a long time.

The workaholic look of Lebius flashed before Boluogo's eyes, and he murmured, "I will work forever..."

"Team leader!"

Boluogo suddenly stopped Lebius, and Lebius turned his head, his eyes as before, as calm as a pool of stagnant water.

Boluogo hesitated and shook his head.

"No...it's nothing."

Bologo felt nothing in Lebius, nothing. Boluogo sincerely hoped that this was just his imagination.
