Ghostland

"Hey!" Beelzebub plucked his wings.

Asmodeus flapped his wings vigorously, and wrenched his hands away, sulking.

"I'm leaving."

As soon as Beelzebub finished speaking, his shoulders were caught by the big black wing.

Asmodeus, who was hiding in the safe dark room he built, raised his head and looked at him resentfully.

Beelzebub felt the wings on his shoulders exerting a little force, and he took a step forward involuntarily... The distance between the two suddenly narrowed, and he was in a delicate mood: in the wilderness, alone and widowed.Is this distance the legend... More than Youda, but less than lovers?

……

No!There must be too many love cards attached to the snacks, which made him have an illusion!

The powerful single devil warned himself: Dog food is so delicious, why give it to others.

Beelzebub pulled back his thoughts, re-entered the role, and showed concern: "Are you afraid of pythons? Blame my lack of thoughtfulness. To express my apologies, I am willing to submit a bill to ban pythons from hell."

Asmodeus did not forget to correct in panic: "Snakes are forbidden."

Beelzebub humbly drew a big pie: "No problem. But it must be after the Nine Realms crisis is resolved." He took out a contract and handed it over, "Before that, the future of hell and the Nine Realms depended on you. After all, resolving the immediate crisis is more important than the distant future."

Asmodeus smeared his face with his wings.

Beelzebub: "..." He moved his fingers slightly.

The bottom of the cylinder sank suddenly, and the giant pythons inside experienced the "elevator slide". They were very panicked, forgot their fear, and continued to climb down. One of the tails directly penetrated the cylinder and protruded from the middle.

The thick and long body of the giant python swayed and danced in the air, like a slave owner's long whip.

The poor "ostrich slave" glared at the perpetrator angrily. Before Beelzebub blocked his face to defend himself, he finally raised his finger and quickly swiped across the contract in his hand, leaving a string of forced signatures.

After Beelzebub checked that there was no problem, his expression suddenly brightened, and he put away the contract and reached out to hug him.

Asmodeus pushed away awkwardly: "Get the snake away first."

Beelzebub waved his hand, and the cylinder containing the giant python hit the ground with a bang, bang, and bounced away.

After confirming that the crisis was resolved, the slightly raised feathers on Asmodeus' wings slowly calmed down.He stared solemnly at Beelzebub's contract pocket, as if he was thinking about how to break the contract.

Beelzebub was protecting his pocket with one hand, his eyes casually glanced at the roots of Asmodeus's feathers, his face was slightly condensed - under the dense black front feathers, there was a large piece of off-white down feathers.

"This is the World Destroyer pointing watch, which can sense the direction of the World Destroyer within a radius of one kilometer. When the wearer makes physical contact with the World Destroyer, the dial will flash green light." He didn't give Asmodeus a chance to regret it , put on the watch for him directly.The meticulous and serious appearance seemed to be in handcuffs. "Your mission is to protect the World Destroyer and dispel his desire to destroy the world."

Asmodeus looked at his watch and looked at Beelzebub blankly: "What should I do?"

Beelzebub said patiently: "There is good news! The World Destroyer we found is only 16 years old, and has not yet formed a stubborn outlook on the world and life. You have a lot of time to reform him."

Transforming the Destroyer instead of destroying him?This is not like the style of the devil king of hell.

Asmodeus looked suspicious.

Beelzebub explained implicitly: "This is the fifth World Destroyer we have found, after the first four had unfortunate accidents."

Asmodeus was stunned: "The Destroyer is an inheritance?"

"They include males and females, old and young. We haven't found any correlations and rules with each other. What is certain is that when one Destroyer dies, the other will appear." Fearing that he might retreat, Bessie Bu patted the pocket that contained the contract, "Responding to the call and not executing it will lead to a bloody waterfall. Just in time, I want to send the giant python there to be released, so I can take a ride along the way."

……

To describe Asmodeus’ inner feelings at this time, it is——I was forced to read a book with a very obscure name, but I couldn’t refuse it. After being forced to read it, I found that the content was comparable to a heavenly book... It’s not good if I don’t read it.

Realizing that he could not get out of trouble if he continued to struggle, he folded his wings and walked back dully, planning to find a quiet place to commemorate his carefree past.

"Ace."

Beelzebub, who stayed where he was, suddenly called to stop him.

Asmodeus stopped, not wanting to turn his head, but he didn't hear the follow-up for a long time, so he quietly and slightly turned his body to the side so that his peripheral vision could catch the opponent.

Beelzebub was still fighting against the light, his face blurred in the darkness: "If one day, the Nine Realms need to be sacrificed to save the Nine Realms..."

Asmodeus retorted subconsciously: "Is it the Eight Realms?" Wasn't the Human Realm sacrificed?

Beelzebub was slightly stunned, and quickly smiled. He took out a pack of dried mangoes from his pocket, stuffed a piece into his mouth, and walked over while chewing: "Well. The human world has been isolated from other worlds for many years, forming a unique development. .In order not to get used to it, you can use Noah’s Ark to learn from the human beings there, and all expenses will be reimbursed.”

Asmodeus felt that this plan was feasible, but he still didn't appreciate it on the surface.

He was really angry at being cheated so badly this time: "I have a high possibility of failure."

Beelzebub said, "Actually, there is a plan b."

The burden on his shoulders was slightly lowered, and Asmodeus heaved a sigh of relief.He nodded reservedly as farewell, and left the square with big strides, passing the north entrance, just when the searchlight changed color, and the dazzling purple light fell on the warning sign of "Python Infested", producing a weak reflection.

As for the angle, Asmodeus saw it right this time, but it was too late.

He returned home sad, sad, lost, and helpless, only to find that the door of his house was blocked.

As soon as a group of fallen angels in the uniform of hell's civil servants saw him, they set off fireworks and held a farewell party.The carriage, luggage, and money are all ready-made, visas, and coachmen are also clearly arranged, as if they are chasing the devil to put on the shelf.

Confused, puzzled, entangled, and dazed, Asmodeus rushed out of hell in a speeding carriage and disappeared into the endless night before he could figure out what happened.

The driver was a goatman, very taciturn, and if he didn't scratch his butt occasionally, Asmodeus would almost suspect that he was just a statue.

However, the almost dead environment has a sense of security.He slept on the cushion, and when he got up, he felt much more refreshed. The shadow brought by the giant python gradually dissipated, and his sense of rejection of the task also decreased, and he began to think seriously about the feasibility.

After the fall, he rarely left hell, and his understanding of the human world was still at the time of Adam and Eve, so he was obviously very outdated.It is indeed a good idea to go to Noah's Ark - there is the only human representative outside the world - Feixia Shi.

Back then, when Shi Feixia came to Hell, they met and chatted with each other, and they had a little friendship. If I ask him for advice...the fee shouldn't be too expensive—after all, he is a human being who talks business with Mammon, the "God of Wealth in Hell" , It is impossible not to collect money.

Asmodeus hugged the heavy mission fund tightly, and seemed to have found some support.

Just thinking about it like this, he fell asleep again, woke up again, and Noah's Ark was close in front of him.

The legendary ship that rescued biological samples in the great flood was actually a hotel-style transfer station in the Nine Realms, where a representative from each sector was stationed and managed.It has no fixed appearance, and what everyone sees is what they think they are.

So, some people see tall buildings, some people see Yiye Ark, and some people see...

The long lost paradise.

Asmodeus looked at the familiar scene with a dazed expression.

Most of the fallen angels have more or less a question in their hearts, that is, "Fallen, do you regret it?"

When they first arrived in hell, their answer was regret.But the economic base determines the superstructure. When the GDP of hell catches up with and surpasses that of heaven, the sense of loss will be picked up.

The only exception is Asmodeus.

He never thought about it.With the ability to create illusions, he can "return to heaven" anytime, anywhere.There is no anti-addiction system in the illusion. After a long time of indulging, the boundary between true and false is blurred, and the inner world is also blurred.

But at this moment, looking at the Noah's Ark, which is as indistinguishable from heaven, he finally realized that what is fake is always fake.

because--

Titans, vampires, transparent people, werewolves... human beings and other creatures from all walks of life cannot stand at the gate of heaven.

"Creatures from all walks of life" looked up at the lingering carriage, thinking that they were not enthusiastic enough, and waved their hands one after another.The Titan, who stood out from the crowd, thumped his chest, was reprimanded by the short human, and showed his heart to his chest instead.

The dwarf picked up the suona smuggled from the human world, and blew the welcome song.

Shi Feixia, who planned a whole set of welcome procedures as soon as he received the VIP reservation, fully demonstrated the excellent professionalism of the director of housekeeping, while commanding the werewolf chef and Titan security guards to open the "Warmly welcome the demon king Asmodeus to come and guide" Banner, while picking up the horn, shouted to the carriage:

"Once the golden wind and jade dew meet, they will win, but there are countless people in the world. It coincides with the annual Qixi Festival, and the great Asmodeus Demon King came all the way to spend a good night with us. All the colleagues in the hotel are very honored to come! ,applaud!"

The dwarf engineer immediately turned on the applause machine, and a hundred pairs of mechanical hands clapped their hands.

The hand of Asmodeus pushing the door was frightened, his eyes met Feixia Shangshi's enthusiastic smile, and after confirming that the other party had no malicious intentions, he relaxed a little, stepped off the carriage, handed in the visa, and set foot on the big platform of Noah's Ark. Red carpet.

Shi Feixia immediately sent flowers.

After Asmodeus took it, he watched inexplicably as the hotel staff spontaneously surrounded him on the left, right, and behind him, posing in various poses.Shi Feixia reminded in a low voice: "Look at the camera." In front of it, an automatic camera is rolling the wheels to adjust the focus length back, forth, left, and right.

As Shi Feixia started, everyone said in unison, "Today is a good day", and the camera clicked, leaving a precious group photo.

Asmodeus: "..."

Photos are available immediately.Shi Feixia held it and solemnly hung it on the VIP wall at the entrance of the hotel lobby.This VIP wall was opened up separately, and the wall was painted in a black and white gradient from left to right.

Asmodeus took a rough look, and it was indeed a collection of photos of bigwigs from all walks of life.From Hell Demon Lord Mammon and Abaddon, to the royal family of the elves, Omedando and Loctini, to Lanka, the leader of the transparent people in the Yuanshu Realm, Jesse, the patriarch of the witch tribe, to the seraph of heaven, Metatron and...

His eyes were suddenly glued, and he stared at the one in the middle on the far right.There are serious traces of posing in this photo. Not only did the fan blow the hair and the hem of the clothes, but the person standing in position c also blew himself up, as if it was a freeze frame at the end of a certain mythological stage play.
