Overturned Tower
Page 62
"Do you dare to look into the eyes of a lion, little bird?"
The white lion showed a smile—the so-called smile is to open its mouth to reveal its ferocious teeth.
The fear that Russell felt suddenly increased several times.
But at this moment, he finally saw through the truth of this fear.
"……I see."
Russell uttered the deep and magnetic voice of a blue songbird: "It must be the repression between spiritual relatives."
Because the soul relative of the other party is a lion, and the blue song robin is a small bird.
In reality, apart from the difference in appearance and some habits, there is no difference between this kind of relatives.
But in the dream world, there was an incomparably real difference.
"That's why it's called 'spiritual relatives', newcomer."
The voice of the white lion is like a lion's roar, like the sound of relaxing bass rock music, every byte shakes Russell's heart: "Only by throwing away the shell and using the body of the soul can we touch the truth.
"Okay, rookie. Tell me... who is your mentor? He brought you in without even telling you about the Tower."
The complex and all-round outfit on Russell was obviously prepared for a long time.
Normally, even those who have the adaptability of a mage and enter the dream world by accident will wear pajamas at most, and absolutely impossible to wear shoes and socks... After all, they must first fall asleep before they can reach the dream world.
And bare feet, walking in the scorching hot sand.This in itself is tantamount to austerity.
But now Russell not only wears a windproof and waterproof jacket, but also wears goggles.There are even paraphernalia and weapons.
This is obviously well prepared.
At least he can know the key to actively enter the dream world, fall asleep fully armed, and know what he will experience in the "prime wasteland".
This shows that Russell must be guided by others.
And Russell has already made up a set of sophisticated lies for this.
But what Russell didn't expect was that.
The lion didn't listen to Russell's sophistry at all.
"Since I didn't tell you about the existence of the tower, I can't be called a good mentor..."
The white lion just waved his hand casually: "No...forget it, it doesn't matter. It doesn't matter if you have a mentor or not—you are ours now."
——I didn't doubt Russell's background at all, nor did I doubt whether he was a traitor, and I didn't even ask why Russell came here, how he got in, and didn't ask Russell for his opinion.
With a big wave of his hand like this, Russell was almost plundered and taken into his camp.
This is not a pretense.
The lion obviously didn't care about these things from the bottom of his heart.
This almost stupid and irrational behavior, but full of a dangerous sense of doing whatever he wants... made Russell, who was acting rationally, inexplicably a little creepy.
Chapter 21 Why Are You Angry
"...Let me tell you, you don't even know my name or where I come from, so you let me follow you?"
Russell couldn't help asking: "Then who are you?"
To be honest, Russell couldn't quite understand the lion's logic.
More like a beast than a human.
There is no fear at all, and there is no scruple in acting.
But in the face of Russell's questioning, the white lion with a mighty face just grinned, showing a ferocious and bloody "smile".
"Smiling" among human beings is precisely to release hostility.That's a sign of joy and kindness.
But when the white lion makes the same move, it looks more like a beast with its mouth wide open, ready to eat - it will only make people shudder.
"Is there any need to ask?"
The lion chuckled twice, and the roar-like bass shook his heart: "It's unnecessary.
"You and I are both mages. We are both outcasts walking in the dream world... You and I are friends rather than enemies."
"A friend or an enemy?"
"On the day you see the blue sky—the moment you walk on the sand and see the Tower of the End in the distance, you can't turn back."
The white lion let out a deep laugh: "They will never allow the existence of mages. Is there anything more trustworthy than an ally that cannot be betrayed?"
"Of course there is."
Russell replied without fear: "Even if we have the same enemy, the same background, and are in the same situation. It doesn't prove that we are walking on the same path, let alone prove that you will not betray me."
This is Russell's anti-client response.
Although it seemed that Russell was at an overwhelming disadvantage in terms of relatives, size, spells and combat experience.
But in fact, this beast-like man who looked very dangerous was actually the one who "asked for help".
"—Of course I can prove it."
Unexpectedly, the white lion laughed loudly, and the bold voice spread far in the wasteland: "Because I am 'Strangle'.
"The windbreaker on your body is the symbol of Tianen Group. You are also from Happy Island, right? Then you must know me."
He stretched out his big hand that didn't turn into a beast's claw, but its skin was extremely rough, almost made of calluses, and pressed it on Russell's shoulder: "I am the 'Strangle' of the White Lion Group——my name, That's the proof."
Russell's pupils constricted slightly, and he became a little nervous.
Because he had indeed heard the name.
In the lower city of Happy Island, there is an underground gang composed of young white lions called the White Lion Group.
Its leader is called Strangling... It is said that this name came from the fact that he liked to use jujitsu to hang people to death when he was a thug and punched underground.
Later, after winning sixteen consecutive championships, "Strangle" hanged his boss and got his freedom-he has since become the new boss.
And then...that was the establishment of the White Lion Group.
White Lions is a very young organization.It has been established for less than five years. Except for the boxing ring as its own business, the rest of its main business is "mediation" and "execution".
They are responsible for mediating the contradictions of underground gangs and executing traitors who defect to the company or cause trouble in the lower city.
They instituted a "Law of Silence" that is now shared by nearly the entire Lower City area.
The so-called "law of silence" is that you must never attack company executives and elves, so as not to cause trouble for others-but bribery and fraud are okay, because this is the law of Uptown.Stealing that seems to be no problem is not allowed... because the theft in the upper city is very likely to steal something terrible, and the brothers will have to pay for it.
In the meantime, they shield members of the Lower City who are willing to abide by the "Law of Silence" in times of trouble.
And if you have accepted their asylum, you cannot disclose any information that is not conducive to the White Lion Group, otherwise you will be executed.Those who betrayed the White Lion Group and those who betrayed the lower city will also be executed.
They also accept some evasion orders for "chasing and killing the betrayers".If there are traitors in other organizations, they can also pay the White Lion Group to hunt them down.In case there are sympathizers of traitors in your own organization, let them go on purpose, or be taken away after contacting more people.
Because the tentacles of the White Lion Group extended more to the lower city, and they acted in a low-key manner.
Therefore, it is not like organizations such as "Eternal Tribulation Reincarnation" and "Venil of Ignorance", which are often targeted by the inferior.It can even be said that because the White Lion Group is also fighting against the two main chaotic organizations in the lower city, "Eternal Tribulation Reincarnation" and "The Veil of Ignorance", unless they happen to meet, the inferior will not take the initiative to go to the White Lion Group trouble.
But not with its cautious — even near-conciliatory — approach to Uptown.
The White Lion Group's execution methods for those traitors who tried to "take refuge in the upper city" can almost be called cruel.
... Isn't it a bit suicidal to go undercover in such an organization?
Russell even started to think about it, or he could just cut it into Alice's appearance and start the second week of dream world exploration.
However, let's try it first.
Because the opportunity is so rare.
If he can get the personal approval of "Strangling", with the bodyguard of the white lion group, the new identity used by Russell will become much safer.
"What about you, what's your name?"
"Blue robin."
Russell answered without hesitation.
This is the original code name of the blue song robin, and there is no need to hide it—after all, it is not uncommon for people to use the code name "blue song robin".
When people are too lazy to think of a code name and are eager to use it, they often directly use their soul relatives as the code name.
"It's a fake name."
Hearing that it was obviously the code name of the other party's soul relative, Hang Sha sneered, never thinking that it was really the code name of the blue songbird: "Girls, change it. You will follow us to kill people in the future.
"At that time, if you say something like 'Remember, the person who killed you is called the blue robin', the other party may think this is some stupid stage play. Do you want to sing a part for them?"
It is not impossible.
Russell groaned.
Singing and slashing people at the same time, it really sounds like a stage play.
"Then call me the barber."
Russell said casually: "The barber can stand behind others with a sharp knife and will not be vigilant. What does this mean?"
"Good name!"
Hang Sang praised him crisply, and clapped his hands vigorously: "That's true!"
Russell doubted he would have had a swig if it hadn't been for the lack of wine.
"Come with me, barber."
Strangling turned around and turned to the right: "Remember, lean 45 degrees to the right. Our path is the path of anger."
"And how do I determine this angle?"
"Don't be sure."
Hang Sha replied: "You just need to move in the general direction and wait for the moment when you cross the realm..."
His voice did not fall.
Russell suddenly felt abnormal.
He stepped forward, and the strangler leading the way in front of him suddenly disappeared.
There was darkness around him, and three illusory doors appeared in front of him without warning.Three roads extend from under his feet.
The road on the left and the middle don't look much different, but the footprints in the middle are deeper.The road on the right is a series of wet footprints.
The appearance of those three doors was blurred...but Russell suddenly understood their essence.
[The Way of Practice], [The Way of Anger], [The Way of Revenge].
Although Russell was also a little curious about where the remaining two roads lead, he stepped towards the middle without any hesitation.
——The way of anger.
The moment Russell took the first step, the remaining two paths dissipated at the same time.
The indistinct door appeared and slammed open to Russell.
It was a vermilion door frame, and the moment it was opened, raging flames ignited around it.
A deep, angry voice sounded from the bottom of Russell's heart.
That's exactly the same voice as "Blue Robin"——
【——Why am I angry? 】
Hearing this sentence, Russell's forward pace stopped for a moment.
But only for a moment.
"I'm angry at this unfair world."
He replied without hesitation.
So Russell took the second step.
It seemed to smash something, and it seemed to break through some membrane.
The dark and dark world is colored again——
The surrounding air suddenly became hot, and the sky over there shone with golden-red sunset light.
