king game

This is a room of some age, the floor creaks and creaks when stepped on, the walls are also mottled, the exposed wall is yellow, with large stains left by something unknown.

It was already late at night outside, and the dark and forbidding night enveloped everything, including countless sneaks and secrets.Dozens of candles were lit inside the house, and the windows were sealed with wooden strips. While the candles were flickering, a cold corpse was thrown onto a dark green rune array, surrounded by a bowl of scarlet sheep's blood, The ignited black bat flower, as well as a baby eye grass, looked quite intrusive.

A man wearing a black overcoat knelt down before such a ceremony. He made prayers with his hands, and whispered in his mouth: "...the great black-winged god, the perfect night walker, the many-faced practitioner, the gadfly The founder of the worm, the wanderer of the other side, the forerunner of the plague... Your servants offer sacrifices here, praying for your coming..."

His voice is not in the several languages ​​that are popular today. The Omikan language used by the Federation and the Chienian language used by the Nighthawk Empire sound more fluent and concise.And what he spit out was a difficult and distorted syllable, like a drowned person exhaling, vague and weird.

The light of the candles trembled together, and the gloomy atmosphere enveloped the room that was still bright just now. From the cracks and corners, it seemed that something terrible had penetrated in, and they quickly dyed everything black. Strange tentacles pulled the corpse infesting the battle instrument from the void below, and slowly, strange rubbing sounds came from all directions.

The man performing the ceremony was so excited that his whole body was trembling. He raised his hands suddenly and shouted: "God! Please lower your power and let the ignorant people feel the pain!!"

…………

The woman's white eyes suddenly returned to her senses. She gasped for breath, as if a bellows had been pulled up in her lungs. She grabbed the arm of her companion, and her sharp nails clamped him firmly. She stared at him with tears of blood Blood gushed out from her pupils, and she also spat out blood, but she still desperately wanted to make a sound: "...Moth... King..."

"Ariel! Ariel!" Her companion was a young man, who was so flustered that he didn't know what to do. Fortunately, there was another more experienced teammate beside them, and he quickly rushed up, using his body Ariel was wrapped up in a windbreaker, and he spilled a handful of powder from the medicine bag at his waist, and quickly lit the dried purple lavender. He began to kneel down on one knee, praying loudly and reverently: "You are the night, the guardian of the veil, the visitor of the sky, you protect the son of thousands, the stars shine because of you, the sky reveals you, you are one of the seven, you are the seven, you are the supreme! Madam, I implore you to bless your believers!"

As if corroded by sulfuric acid, Ariel cried out in pain.Countless black smoke spread from under the dress, and Alice wanted to scratch her face, but the captain signaled the young man to hold her hand tightly.It wasn't until her voice gradually became smaller that he let out a long sigh of relief.

"It seems that the lady is quite free today." He made a small joke, but what he got in return was the horrified eyes of the newcomer.He shook his head, and suddenly remembered that he would have to make countless reports later, and his whole body became gloomy.

"Moth King... what is that?" the young man swallowed and asked.

The captain's eyes were serious, but soon, he slowed down: "Since you have joined our first team, there are some things that I should tell you first."

He watched Ariel surrounded by the healers in the church, and he said anxiously but without loss of proportion: "You should know that there are seven gods, right?"

The young man nodded, and the captain continued: "But you have overlooked one point. The seven gods mentioned in the world actually refer to the seven righteous gods who have their own churches."

"Since there are righteous gods, there will naturally be corresponding evil gods," the captain lit a cigarette, took a deep breath, and said, "Different from righteous gods who are willing to show kindness to people, evil gods often mean cruelty and evil. , you should have heard of the famous night vision club, right?"

The young man nodded quickly.

The captain said coldly: "The 'Moonlight Goddess' they believe in is the evil god!"

Thinking of the terrible rumors about the night vision club, the young man's face also trembled: "Could it be that..."

"Yes," the captain said with a difficult expression, "'Moth King' is a similar existence!"

"Why..." asked the young man.

"He and the 'Eyepeckers' of the Cardinal Society are mortal enemies," the captain said indifferently: "They are the two who are most likely to bestow 'gifts', as long as one moves, the other will soon follow. Sometimes we would rather face other beings than see these two!"

The two purgers of the Evernight Church were discussing something that must never be known to the public. On the other side, Lu Qianqiu exchanged a book as thick as a finger at the long-lost banquet.It contained a lot of secret knowledge that only high-level professionals are qualified to know. He flipped through it casually, and then asked the "Jade" he traded with: "Is there no sign of the 'Lord of Flowers'?" ?”

"Jade" smiled: "If there is, I have already discussed it with other people, so why did it stay until now?"

"Colonel" said: "If it's not here, it's best not to discuss their deeds outside, and don't even mention their names, otherwise, it may cause disaster."

"Ruby" smiled and said, "Although I don't like him, this sentence from him is indeed a piece of advice."

"The existence of evil gods is beyond our knowledge." "Jade"'s after-sales service is very good, he pointed out: "Some of them have long been hidden in history, maybe this 'Lord of Flowers' is such a silent person. There are about thirteen of them who are still active, the scariest one is 'Goddess of Moonlight', the most active ones are 'Moth King' and 'Eyepecker', there are also 'Snake-haired Granny' and 'Magic Tanzhu' , 'Elk God', 'Emperor of the Sea'..."

"Some people say that they are not gods yet," the machete said abruptly, "it can't be described as 'he' yet."

"Ruby" smiled and said, "No matter what they are, I don't know. All I know is that they don't need to use any effort to deal with us, so what if we raise it higher?"

"Scimitar" was dumb, he said in a muffled voice, "You're right!"

The "Seagull" on the side saw that they were chatting happily. Although she was interested in the most secret news, she still asked, "None of you want to know what happened to 'Aconitum'?"

There was a moment of silence.Everyone cast their eyes on Lu Qianqiu intentionally or unintentionally.

Lu Qianqiu was silent for a while, and finally said: "He is dead."

"Seagull" stared wide-eyed. For a while, she couldn't accept the fact that someone died beside her, but soon, she remembered what she had experienced during that time, and her innocent eyes immediately lowered: "Father ……Mother……"

"His request..." someone asked.

"I fulfilled my promise, but I can't tell you the specific content of the request, because it may pose a threat to my real identity." Lu Qianqiu did not hide it."Miss Fanhua" who walked over also confirmed his words, she said with a smile: "The transaction has indeed been completed."

"Hello……"

"Salute to you!"

Everyone stood up to salute.

"That's not necessary," "Miss Fanhua" looked around at these people, and she said with a little deep meaning: "It seems that several of you have made progress during this period..."

Several people looked at each other, unable to see their expressions from each other's foggy faces.

"I came here to tell you something," "Miss Fanhua" opened her fan, covered the lower half of her face with a smile and said, "The outside world will be chaotic for a while, and there may be Disaster is upon us. You are the only few guests left at my lord's banquet, I don't want you all to die, if that happens, my lord will definitely look down again, but he will definitely be very disappointed with me."

"Colonel" took the opportunity to say: "Then I wonder if 'Miss Fanhua' would be willing to start a new program for this banquet?"

"Oh?" The mysterious existence asked with some interest.

The "Colonel" tried his best to calm his heartbeat, and he said very carefully: "Don't you think the number of people in the banquet is a bit small now?"

"Miss Fanhua" looked at him quietly, the flowers on her face stopped spinning at some point, and her voice became cold: "How to choose guests is my Lord's will, and you are questioning His will." Willing?"

"Of course not!" The "Colonel" hurriedly said: "I just think that if you want His Majesty to pay attention to this place again and continue such procedures, it is impossible to do it. If there is no change, the feast here will only It’s getting colder and colder. I’ve been pitied by that person since ten years ago, but I’ve also witnessed the change from 20 people in the past to six people now. The world is changing, and nothing remains the same , Come to think of it, you should also understand this truth."

He finished what he wanted to say, and then bent down deeply, waiting for the next trial. "Miss Fanhua" didn't speak, but "Ruby" seemed to recognize him for the first time, surprise flashed in his eyes, the others didn't speak, and the surrounding atmosphere became colder every moment.

"Colonel" felt as if he had been plunged into an extremely terrifying vortex, his hands and feet were spliced ​​together in disorder on other parts of his body, and the majestic Sequence Four "Condemned" was manipulated into a flowery appearance, and it seemed that To be completely smashed...

"He has something to say." A voice suddenly rescued him from the premonition of death. The "Colonel" panted heavily. A hallucination, he looked back suddenly, and found that it was the latest rookie who spoke for him.

"Miss Fanhua" transferred the face without facial features to Lu Qianqiu's body.

Lu Qianqiu whispered in his ears: "Have you brought the orb of the oath? Don't be afraid, this is just a rule-level artifact. It contains the element of space, and it can no longer expel you."
