Endless Debt

"I really miss you. I haven't been here for a while."

Stepping into the Immortal Club, the astronaut looked around. This was not his first time here. For the astronaut, the Immortal Club had not changed much. He could still see the familiar past in it.

"A long, long time ago, this was not a club for drunkards to spend their time, but a gladiatorial arena full of blood and honor."

The astronaut stood there and recalled for a while, and said with a full sense of nostalgia, "Everyone who sets foot here will be watched by the Eyes of Eternal Wrath and gain immortality in this bloody arena.

They will engage in crazy duels, fight, die, resurrect, and fight again. In the cruel death, they will repeatedly hone their skills and use the art of war to please my blood relative. "

"The land of restlessness."

The astronaut softly called out the former name of the Immortal Club. In an instant, some subtle power rose and reverberated in the room, and many complicated sounds sounded in the silence, as if there were sleeping souls whispering in their sleep.

"In the cycle of death, the Endless Land will select the greatest warrior, the only champion. He will lead others to start a new round of war until he dies in a certain battle."

The astronaut talked about the past of the Endless Land with mockery of Sai Zong in his tone.

"You will return here with the champion's body and weapons. His body will be buried in the noble ossuary, and the weapons will become the collection of the Eyes of Eternal Wrath."

The words stopped for a moment, and the astronaut sighed, "It's a pity that everything is over, the land of restlessness has become the past, the so-called honor has turned into dust on the ground, and only a group of hopeless drunkards are left. "

The astronaut noticed the collection cabinet next to the bar, and he couldn't help but sneered, "Has even the collection changed from weapons to wine glasses?"

"Are you here just to laugh at me?"

Sai Zong said coldly, "Then you've ridiculed enough and it's time to leave. A bloody guy like you is not welcome here."

"Full of blood?"

The astronaut laughed even louder, "Saizong, how did I realize that you are so humorous? The first champion of the Eye of Eternal Wrath, the only immortal champion, you are actually laughing at my blood?"

His laughter was deafening, like thunder, and the entire Undead Club shook violently. The wine glasses collided with each other, making a crisp sound, and the wine bottles in the cabinet poured out, smashing to pieces on the ground.

The astronaut laughed for a while before he slowly stopped and said, "Take me to see Samuel."

Sai Zong said, "He has fallen asleep."

The astronaut suddenly took a step toward Sai Zong, and then grabbed Sai Zong's throat. Sai Zong did not resist, but stared at the golden mask with murderous eyes, staring at himself reflected in the mask. face, eyes.

"Then let me put it another way."

The astronaut gently exerted force, and a strong sense of suffocation hit Sai Zong's mind. "You step back and let him come to see me."

"No way, absolutely impossible."

Sai Zong refused with a strong attitude, and his violent aura was released instantly.

Just like what I saw outside the Immortal Club before, Sai Zong's blood seemed to be burning. The red blood was like fire, rolling in the blood vessels, bringing an unbearable burning sensation.

The golden light penetrates the skin, cutting open the skin like a knife, exposing a dense network of blood vessels. There are also weak flames burning in the small blood vessels, like countless dancing spider webs, shining with mysterious golden light.

"Okay, okay, calm down, Sai Zong, you don't want to be dominated by anger." The astronaut said and took a step back.

"I won't lose control," Sai Zong tried to suppress his anger. "If this is your trick, then you'd better leave."

"well……"

The astronaut sighed. He dragged his bloated body and squeezed into the narrow bar. He made a glass of wine by himself and inserted a straw and lemon slice into the mouth of the cup.

"How about we be honest?"

The astronaut opened the golden mask, revealing the squirming darkness. The straw was inserted into the darkness, and there was a sound of sucking.

"A new round of disputes is coming, and the camps are also being re-divided. Me, Belphegor, and Asmode are united, while the rest are standing with Beelzebub."

The astronaut put down his glass and asked, "What about you? Sai Zong, whose side will you be on?"

"Neither side." Sai Zong replied forcefully.

"Oh my God, Sai Zong, you are no longer a child, can we be more mature?" the astronaut said helplessly, "Do you really think you can stay out of it?"

The astronaut's voice turned stern.

"Do you think he can stay out of it?"

Sai Zong fell silent. He understood some of the truth, but he just didn't want to accept it.

"How ironic. This was once the hall of honor that countless warriors yearned for and the source of all wars. But now it is occupied by cowards and has become a ridiculous haven to escape the fate you should have faced."

Faced with the astronaut's ridicule, Sai Zong clenched his fists, but he couldn't say anything when asked to retort.

Sai Zong is a warrior, he is only good at wielding a sword. Besides, what the astronaut said is true and cannot be disputed.

"You should understand the nature of the devil. In the final analysis, we are just representatives of power. When Samuel cannot fulfill his responsibilities, why not withdraw? Relinquish his responsibilities and enjoy the absolute peace... that is Complete death."

The astronaut looked around again and said to himself, "The Club of the Immortal is really an apt name."

"This is not a nursing home or a safe haven at all, but a prison, a prison where the undead are imprisoned. In this ridiculous peace, you will feel the pain of life for the rest of your long life and will not be able to escape."

The astronaut continued, "Oh... you have a way to escape, just die, but do you really have the courage to face death?"

"Ha ha."

The astronauts' jeers grew louder and louder, shaking the earth.

The stairwell also shook, and the members who were sleeping in the room were woken up one after another. They were in a trance at first, unable to break free from the dream. After they clearly realized the existence of reality, they all let out shrill screams.

"You are like standing on a cliff, with no way forward and nowhere to go. The strong wind cuts your skin, and the eagles peck your flesh. You will suffer almost eternal pain.

Fortunately relief is right before your eyes. "

The astronaut talked heartily. Amidst his roar, the stairwell became restless. One after another, strange beings stepped out of the room. They wanted to know who had awakened them from their sleep.

The dim yellow light cast a dim beam, and the doors were pushed open. There were rapid footsteps in the darkness, and strange beings hurriedly ran through the corridors.

Another door opened, and Sere looked out with an unkind expression, smelling of alcohol. This was the first time he was woken up by someone in the Undead Club for so many years. He wanted to know what happened, but saw Countless monsters filled the corridors.

The first thing that caught his eye was a tall monster with luxuriant muscles that looked strong and savage. It had a huge head, covered with sharp horns, and its vicious eyes made people shudder. Its skin was rough, as if it were made of rock. , making bursts of rustling friction sounds.

Sere swallowed and regained consciousness. Then another monster came into view. It was a twisted and deformed body. The body was like a huge vine, and the twists and turns were full of sharp thorns and tentacles. , irregular lines intersect on the skin, like an endless twisted music. The eyes had no pupils, only darkness, like a bottomless abyss.

There is also a monster with multiple heads. They are lined up in a row, each looking in different directions. Each head has a broken face, with sharp teeth exposed in the cracks, making people feel an endless malice.

The pace of the monsters is fast and hurried, as if they are chasing or escaping from some invisible threat. Their bodies exude a suffocating fishy smell that permeates the entire corridor. At the same time, an indescribable sense of fear fills the air. It permeated the air, making people shudder.

At this time, Sere realized that something was wrong. This was the Undead Club. Who could shake this place or even wake up these old guys who had been sleeping for thousands of years?

"This is the first time I've seen so many people."

After Sere's eyes glanced around in an offensive manner, as the bartender of the Undead Club, he knew that he could not hide in the room. His scarlet eyes shimmered, and he also joined this strange parade.

The Undead Club was also undergoing changes at this time. The narrow corridor began to become wider, even as wide as several lanes. The door opened repeatedly, and almost everyone was awakened.

The whole scene was shrouded in a strange and depressing atmosphere. The portraits on the wall were distorted and deformed. The open doors and windows were rustling. There was almost no light in the dim corridor. Only the faint light occasionally shined through the cracks, making the monsters The shape is even more twisted and weird, as if emerging from hell.

"Weier, Bode."

Sere called in a low voice as he saw the two joining the procession from the other side.

At this time, Bode was holding a mottled spear, and Weier was standing on his shoulder, with a strange light emitting from the cat's eyes, and invisible power was attached to Bode's body layer by layer.

The weird parade continues, and various monsters join it, with weird shapes that make people stunned. They jump, fly, and perform a terrifying and twisted stage play. The music is distorted and noisy, accompanied by terrifying screams. sounds and roars.

Demons dance wildly.

The changes in the Undead Club are still continuing. The spiral staircase has turned into a long staircase. The original bar area has also become wider. In the rapid changes, the bonfire is lit, the weapon rack replaces the wine rack, and the wooden floor is replaced by Covered by sand, faint shouts rang out, and the pervasive aroma of wine was replaced by thick blood.

After many years, Sai Zong saw the Endless Land again, but this was not what he wanted.

The astronaut looked at the undead people walking towards him and continued to scold them.

"Death is the liberation of all this, it is within reach, but you are a group of cowards. You are more willing to endure this eternal pain than death."

The weird laughter continued, Sai Zong raised his hand to stop, and faced the approaching undead.

Saizon said, "Stop."

The undead were stunned for a moment. Most of them had joined during the Undead Club period. Those who knew the Land of Eternity had already died in the endless war.

Naturally, they don't know who the owner of the Undead Club is, and they even have a vague understanding of the rules here.

Just as the undead were about to say something, a coercive force struck their hearts, forcing them to stop. Then their figures began to twist and pull away, and Sere among them also felt the same.

"This is... a winding path!"

As soon as Sere judged the nature of the power, his figure quickly twisted and collapsed, disappearing on the spot. The same thing happened to the undead one after another. They disappeared one after another and appeared in their own room.

Bode held the spear in his hand and sat down on the bed. Looking at the familiar furnishings in the room, he stood up and tried to leave, but this time the door was locked tightly, and no matter how hard he knocked, there was no crack.

"Weier..." Bo De called softly.

In the vortex where the winding paths collapsed one after another, the figure of the black cat began to fade away, like a phantom, unaffected by the power of the winding paths.

It watched with its own eyes as one member after another was deported, and it relied on its own secret power to avoid the influence of the force. After Wei'er landed, she hid directly in the shadows, silently.

Weier wants to know what happened.

Sai Zong sealed all the doors, and each undead must stay in their own room obediently. The smell of blood dissipated, and the surging murderous intent calmed down.

The space was restructured again, and after dozens of seconds the scarlet battlefield disappeared, replaced by a familiar bar. Everything just now seemed like a dream.

The astronaut was a little surprised. He didn't expect that Sai Zong could really control his emotions in so many years.

In the silence, Sai Zong said quietly, "Will death really end everything?"

This time the astronaut was silent.

"For the devil, death is just a stage. After falling down, you will always wake up. The you may no longer be you, but he is you again, like a wonderful isomer."

Sai Zong said sadly, "The fate of suffering has not ended yet, it's just that another unlucky guy has to bear it."

"So, that's why I want to end this completely."

The astronaut said excitedly, "I don't mean erasing the will and replacing it with another new will, but death in the true sense, completely and completely."

"End this dark fate once and for all."

Sai Zong stared at the astronaut blankly, trying to see some expression in the creeping darkness, but there was only nothingness and nothing there.

After a while, Sai Zong laughed this time.

"You're much funnier than me, Leviathan."

Sai Zongdu burst into tears with laughter, and stretched out his hand to wipe away, "A devil seeking destruction... not only self-destruction, but also the destruction of all devils.

If what you said is true, did you persuade Asmodeus and Belphegor? When did the devil become so righteous? "

"Of course I couldn't convince them," the astronaut said sincerely, "so I deceived them."

"As for why I confess all this to you..."

The astronaut pressed his hands on the helmet, twisted hard, and took off the entire helmet.

"I just think you might be the only one among the devils who can understand me."

In the shadows, the black cat quietly came closer. It first saw Sai Zong, whose whole body was covered with scars and redness, and the cracked wounds were filled with lava-like light.

In front of Sai Zong was a weird man wearing a bloated diving suit. He took off his helmet in front of Sai Zong. Weier tried to see his appearance clearly, but Sai Zong's head perfectly covered the weirdo's face. , only a steady stream of black particles overflowed from it.

"I'm really honest, Sezon."

Leviathan whispered, "Is this enough to impress you and let me go see him?"

Sai Zong gave Leviathan an answer with action. He raised his hand, and then the wriggling space wrapped the two of them, collapsed, and disappeared in place.

Weier jumped out of the shadows and sniffed the remaining smell on the ground, only to smell a pungent smell of sulfur.
