Leopard of another world

Chapter 55 The Nightmare Reappears

The news brought back by Claude, who escaped from the dead, shocked the entire Deknis, and the word Plan A—the Angel Manufacturing Project became the most frequently used word in the mouths of Deknis executives.

After the miracle of light disappeared on the mainland, the church began to try to use human alchemy combined with light magic to transform humans and create angels. They believed that angels were messengers between the world of gods and the world of humans. Since gods disappeared in the world of Eden, then Human beings should take the initiative to do something to re-establish the connection between the two worlds.

Lance finally knew that he and Evan were the two most important experimental subjects in the church's plan. They possessed powerful light talent and the brand of God's blessing. The group of white-bearded old men took it for granted that the success rate of the two of them should be higher than that of Previous failures were much higher.

However, the "God's Ceremony" for transforming the human body was destroyed by Lance. Although he and Evan each received a pair of ugly wings presented by the church, Plan A did fail completely by accident. The survivors face a most brutal death.

"We all thought that the ceremony had failed, but the huge power and chaos of that ceremony tore apart the space for a short time, and the arrival of the 'God's Messenger' from the alien plane revived the church's hope of making angels. In fact, 'God The messenger' itself is a high-ranking angel."

Claude reported to Lance on the throne with a solemn expression.

"Plan A is the top secret, and only the most core high-level people know it. I broke into the angel manufacturing compartment by accident, and only then did I know that the one hundred participants did not die, but were killed by the 'God's Spirit'." The Messenger arranged to be soaked in the holy water he gave. It is said that with the dead leaves or the soul crystals of the elves, there is a chance to create a real angel. The church now obeys the words of the "Messenger of God", and I was taught Discovered, forced to throw into the container and become a test product.”

The gray and white wings on Claude's back quietly pressed against his back: "Even with the help of the 'God's Messenger', the success rate of Plan A is not high, and it has too strict requirements for the talent of the light department, but the church does not care about production Out of half-angels or failed products, they are going to organize this group of monsters into a legion and become the main force to attack Deknis, because the wish of the "God Messenger" is to eliminate all darkness."

This news gave Lance a headache. He couldn't imagine how a real angel would allow humans to make angels. The frequent appearance of "messenger of God" in Claude's mouth gave him an ominous premonition. The familiar magic circle he saw in the reference room made his premonition even stronger.

Maybe he should sneak into the church again, Lance thought.

Lance found another reason for himself to go to the church, which unanimously received unanimous opposition from everyone.

"Your Majesty, even if you find a hundred more reasons, rescuing your pet will not become the most important thing right now." Kevin's flat expression was slightly displeased, and he stared at Lance with inorganic eyes: "The most important thing now is to train Dekness's army and formulate a battle plan. You cannot be absent. This is your responsibility as the Demon King."

"Ah, the devil's responsibility." Lance said softly: "Kevin, from the beginning when you told me that I became the seventh devil king out of nowhere, to racking my brains to complete the task of turning the devil into a regular role in order not to be obliterated, and finally I finally finished those series of tests, Kevin, you are talking about the "responsibility of the devil" to me now, for this, I have to give up the lives of important people, heh, let the "responsibility of the devil" go to hell !"

Kevin's expression remained unchanged, but Lance was sure the butler was angry.

"Since you insist on doing this, as a housekeeper, I can't stop you." Kevin took off his snow-white gloves gracefully: "You have indeed officially become the seventh-generation devil king, and you also have absolute leadership and decision-making power, but the fact is, Deknis currently has no spare power to send people to support your rescue operation, and if you have any accidents during the operation, the subordinates who signed the contract with you will die innocently. Your Majesty, you bear more than your life. .”

Lance was silent for a while, then raised his head: "Is there any way to cut off my contract with them? Temporarily."

"Then you can only temporarily leave the position of Demon King."

"Can you still do this?" Lance was a little surprised.

"Of course, Your Majesty, as I said, after becoming the official Demon King, you have absolute decision-making power. Although this kind of thing has never happened in the previous sessions, once you have the power, few people can give up without hesitation, but If you insist on making such a choice, I can't stop it."

"Then leave this position temporarily." Lance said without hesitation.

"Okay." Kevin sighed helplessly: "Deknis will give you the greatest help possible, and I hope you can return as soon as possible after successfully completing the rescue. After all, Deknis can't wait too long. .”

Lance did not hesitate to follow the housekeeper Kevin to temporarily erase the imprint of the devil's soul. He even seriously thought about the plan of not returning after taking off the burden of the devil. After all, he became the devil very inexplicably, and it was not voluntary. It is undoubtedly a huge temptation to leave this position and do whatever you want.

But once he thought of the subordinates he had personally created and Samuel who was born in Deknis, this kind of naive idea was dispelled.

Standing on the edge of the magic pool, listening to Kevin chanting unknown magic, Lance was gradually enveloped by the light from the bottom of the magic pool, and he was a little drowsy. Before he fell asleep completely, Kevin's voice came from his ear , as far away as if in the sky.

"When you wake up again, everything will be different."

When Lance regained consciousness, he only felt that the surroundings were bitingly cold, his bones were rattled by hard things, he had a splitting headache, he opened his eyes suddenly in dizziness, moved his hands and feet, and there was a rough rubbing sound, scratching The eardrum hurts.

He woke up with a jerk.

Hands and feet were firmly shackled by iron rings, and the thick and long iron chains rubbed against the ground with the movement, making icy sounds. This is a narrow cell, the ground and walls are cold and hard, and the cold air seems to emanate from the ground, oozing cold. down to the bone.

What happened?

Lance felt that his brain was not enough, trying to establish a spiritual link with his subordinates in his mind, but there was nothing.

That's right, he was removing the demon king's brand before he fell asleep, and it seems to be successful, but why is he here, where is he here, and why is he locked up? Could it be that the Church of Light has captured Deknis?

Trying to mobilize his magic power, his hands and feet felt a sharp pain, and thin lines emerged from the iron ring, irritating his skin and making him unable to use any power.

Frowning and looking around, suddenly his eyes were not far away.

In the shadows in the corner of the corridor outside the iron fence, a figure stood.

"Who are you?" Lance said, and found his voice hoarse and terrifying.

The figure moved, took a step forward, and revealed its appearance.

"Evan, the holy knight of light?!" Lance narrowed his eyes and stood up quickly, but was restrained by the iron chain and fell back to the ground: "The church really captured Deknis?!"

Paladin Evan stood not far away and looked at him indifferently, then turned his gaze and brought his wrist to his lips: "My lord, he's awake."

Lance saw a small magical communication spar on his wrist.

What exactly is going on? !

After sitting on the ground for a while, Lance finally calmed down. He looked at Evan again, and asked tentatively, "Where is this?"

"..."

"Don't be nervous, if you are smart enough, I won't be able to get any important information, paladin." Lance showed a sarcasm smile: "Or, the light side is already afraid of the dark to the point of not even daring to answer a question ?”

After a long time, the other party said indifferently: "Church dungeon."

Actually in church...

Lance frowned indistinctly, having no clue about what happened, and wanted to ask something, but it was obvious that Paladin Evan didn't intend to speak, and looked out the window indifferently with his arms folded.

Lance turned to study the small cubicle where he was locked. The movements of his hands and feet made the iron chains ring continuously, which was very clear in the silence.

"Put away those calculations in your heart, you can't escape."

Lance looked at Paladin Evan, who was warning, and looked at his eyes towards the disgusted enemy, pursed his lips, and suddenly smiled: "I'm just curious, why did I fall into the Church of Light when I woke up?" hands."

Not knowing if it was an illusion, Lance saw a trace of pity in the eyes of Paladin Evan.

Just when he was about to say something more, footsteps came from far away in the corridor. Paladin Evan's expression changed, he knelt down on one knee facing the exit of the corridor, and bowed respectfully: "My lord, the envoy of God, be well!" .”

A tall and slender man walked slowly in the backlight. Lance looked through the gap in the fence, narrowed his eyes slightly, and felt that the walking posture of that man was very familiar.

"Long time no see, Lance."

An indifferent and elegant voice passed by his ears. The man stood still in front of the prison door with a smile on his lips and gentle eyes, as if he was looking at an old friend he hadn't seen for many years.

"Desmond!"

Lance's pupils shrank sharply, and his eyes reflected the man's face. He was beyond shocked. The man with six wings in front of him was a friend he hadn't seen for many years. Warlord - Seraphim Desmond!

Hearing Lance call out his name accurately, Desmond looked relieved. He smiled and nodded gracefully: "I'm glad you all still remember my name. It makes me very happy."

Lance stared at him blankly, his mind was in a mess: "You...I...why..."

"Calm down, Lance, this panicked look is not like you, I have enough time to answer your questions."

Lance took a deep breath and forced himself to calm down, his voice quickly recovered: "Why am I here."

"Good question." Desmond praised: "This is what I want to tell you too. Your loyal butler of Dekniss made a condition to the Church of Light to exchange you for Samuel. I thought about it. I agreed."

Not expecting such an answer at all, Lance found it difficult to understand, and repeated dryly: "Kevin, take me...for Samuel?"

"Why did you put on such an unbelievable expression, oh, I almost forgot, the poor former devil king was completely kept in the dark." Desmond showed a perfect smile: "Of course the loyal butler is In order to take back the first former demon king who created him, let him sit on the throne of the demon king again."

"Samuel is the first devil?" Lance couldn't react.

"Have you even forgotten your old lover?" Desmond exaggeratedly exclaimed: "He has been with you for so long, I thought you two would have reconciled a long time ago!"

Lance only felt a bang in his head, and everything was messed up. His face turned pale quickly, and he looked at Desmond short of breath: "Samuel is... that Samuel? You got it wrong, he's just me Picked up a black panther."

Desmond laughed loudly: "It turns out that you have been deceiving yourself like this all the time, Lance, think about it, if he was just a black panther, how could he appear by your side by such a coincidence, how could he have become your old man?" The appearance of a lover, how could he hook you into bed? What's more, when he saw me, he called out my name as accurately as you. Do you think my reputation is so big that even the other plane Have you heard of even one of the black panthers?"

Lance leaned against the wall, his lips were trembling, and many things became very clear in an instant.

Whether it was Samuel cutting off the soul contract between them, Kevin erasing his imprint as a demon king, or using him in the form of a black panther to successfully enter the Temple of Demons earlier, all of these are for today Preparations for Samuel's return to the throne of the Demon King!

It turned out that the nightmare he had been trying to escape from had never left his side...
