Infinite Anecdotes

After discussing with everyone (after having breakfast), Tang Cheng and the others decided to take advantage of the daytime before the start of the trial to go to the tomb to investigate the situation.

Except for Roswaal who would run away when he approached the "door" in the tomb, the others were led by Liuzi to the tomb of the lustful witch. This tomb has been built for some years, and the pillars are still falling off and corroded. Awesome, the whole scale looks like an underground palace

"When the trial begins at night, the torches inside will light up by themselves." After entering the dimly lit room, Liu Zi said.

The implication is that now you can only rely on yourself.

A group of people lit torches and walked in. In fact, the outer layer of the tomb is just such an ordinary hall, and there is a mechanism at the entrance inside it. After opening, there will be a passage going down, extending into the boundless darkness Among them, it is not surprising that it feels like some ghosts and ghosts are gushing out.

"Is the lust witch buried in the ground?"

"Yes." Lucy replied.

"I'll go down and take a look first." Tang Cheng signaled Emilia and the others to stay up there, while he summoned Beatrice and entered the tomb together.In Tang Cheng's view, since Beatrice is an artificial elf created by the Witch of Lust, if the one buried here is really the Witch of Lust, there should be some chemical reaction with her.

One person and one elf walked down the steps.

"There is indeed a mother's breath here." Beatrice said with certainty: "These strong witch miasma will easily make the "door" go into a rampage."

It seems that what Roswaal said that he can't get close to here is probably true. Just when Tang Cheng looked around and used his excellent night vision ability to confirm the surrounding scene, he suddenly heard a whispering voice in his ear , blowing like a breeze.

"Oh, you're here."

When Tang Cheng turned his head, the dark and dim cemetery around him turned into a sunny garden, surrounded by white marble pillars, supporting the elaborately cast dome above the head, crossing a row of With the neat guardrails, you can see the sea of ​​clouds rolling outside, which makes Tang Cheng deduce that he is at the top of a tall tower.

Looking back, there is a layer of turf growing on the ground paved with marble tiles, dotted with some unknown bright flowers, white is the main tone, occasionally dotted with red and blue colors, covering the four corners of the entire site. A third of them even climbed up to the fence, and in the center of the place, there is a white round table, a silver-haired woman in a black dress, sitting there elegantly with the back of her hand on her chin, holding a cup of black tea. Looking at himself with interest.

This is most likely the Witch of Lust, Echidna.Tang Cheng thought so.

"What a beauty." Tang Cheng used this sentence as his opening remarks.

This sentence was obviously beyond Echidna's expectation. She was startled, and then giggled lightly: "Your mouth is so sweet, no wonder Betty and so many other girls like you so much."

Tang Cheng smiled calmly, transforming the information revealed in her words in his heart, and then sat down on the chair opposite the lustful witch.

"Then, what is your intention of entertaining me here?"

"Don't worry." The lust witch snapped her fingers, and a cup of tea appeared in front of Tang Cheng: "In my dream city, the concept of time does not exist, and we have a lot of time to discuss this issue."

Tang Cheng raised his eyebrows, then looked at the cup of black tea in front of him, and said with a smile: "Is there any poison or medicine in it?"

Echidna also responded with a smile: "You guess."

"Since it's a tea served by a beauty like you, I'm willing to drink it even if it's highly poisonous." Tang Cheng picked up the teacup and took a sip, praising: "Good tea, it feels like you have the same fragrance."

With that said, he took another sip.

"..." Echidna looked at Tang Cheng with a little more interest: "You know, I've always been curious why I can't see through your true inner thoughts."

"You can read minds?"

Echidna nodded.

Tang Cheng continued to smile slightly, and put down his teacup: "That's really a pity, I have skills that cannot be controlled by others. In the words of this world, it is my protection from being interfered by any external things."

"I see." Echidna nodded, a little relieved, and she explained: "You should also know that I am called the "Witch of Lust", because of the influence of this power, I have no knowledge of the unknown. The desire for things is a little stronger than the average person."

"Then there are so many unknown things in this world, isn't it very hard for you?"

"That's not true." Echidna took a sip of black tea and smiled slyly: "You should have seen the Gospel in Betty's hand, otherwise you would not be able to bring her out of the contract of the forbidden library, and that This book is actually a copy of a book called "Book of Wisdom" that I own, which records the past, present and future of this world, and can fully satisfy my curiosity."

The lust witch said so.

196．Witch's Contract

"Then don't you already know the ending of this world and yourself?" Tang Cheng asked.

"In a way, it is true." Echidna's face finally restrained her smile, as if she remembered something that made her feel unhappy, but this is not too surprising, after all, many witches including herself , were all killed by the Envious Witch 400 years ago: "But it is precisely because of knowing that everyone is doing their best to change this too sad ending."

"I can think this means that the records about the future on the "Book of Wisdom" are always changing, right?"

"You are really smart." Echidna praised, and continued: "If this world develops according to the established track, it will never escape the end of being swallowed by the envious witch. But fortunately, there are people like you People from different worlds keep coming to this world, thus changing the trajectory of this world. Although it is small, it is much better than the unchanging despair of stepping into death."

"Is that why you have kept Betty in the forbidden library waiting for the person who can change the outcome?"

"That's right." Echidna admitted straightforwardly.

"But what if the waiting person never shows up?" Tang Cheng asked.

"Then wait forever," Echidna held up her teacup and smiled, "until the end of the world."

"It's a sad subject."

"That's the case for me, because in a sense, I am indeed 'dead'." Echidna still maintained her calmness and elegance: "The reason why I appear in the present posture in the present In this city of dreams, the dragon god actually exists by using the restraining power. He seems to hope that before the end of his life, he can gather all the chess pieces to deal with the jealous witch. There are also "fragments" of other witches here. , do you want to meet them?"

"It's not necessary," Tang Cheng said, "I'm not familiar with them, and I'm not interested in them."

"Oh?" Echidna asked, tilting her head, her sideburns tied with black ribbons fell to her uneven chests, "Then what are you interested in?"

"I am very sexually interested in you," Tang Cheng said without concealing his desire and greed, "Your beautiful legs are the most suitable for wearing white silk among all the women I have ever seen. I really want to get them. You are under me to be my woman."

When Tang Cheng said this, the expression on his face was very natural, and his demeanor was still graceful, but the content was completely inconsistent and vulgar. If Echidna was not confident that her hearing had not deteriorated, she might have thought it was I got it wrong.

"This is really..." Echidna found herself unable to find the words to describe it for a while.

On the contrary, Tang Cheng nodded without hesitation and said, "I see."

"what?"
