I have become stronger, but also shorter [comprehensive]

When Akashi Seijuro entered the cave last, he was still holding Edogawa Conan by the hand.

Not to mention how intimate this action was, but the sense of distance suddenly faded a lot, as if the two teenagers had talked together outside the entrance of the cave just now, and now they can talk again.

——It was the elementary school student's expression covered in darkness, which was rather stiff for no reason.

Of course, it was impossible for Edogawa Conan to reach a consensus with "Akashi Seijuro" who noticed something was wrong in such a short period of time, so as to alleviate his suspicion.

On the contrary, the suspicion deepens... no, it is now completely certain!

The other party took his hand, looking very friendly and without any malice.

But the young detective knew it very clearly in his heart.

This is no intimacy, it's clearly a threat against him!

Or, to be more blunt.

In fact, this is not even a "threat".

Because after they took a step and entered the range of the cave, the "creature" attached to the red-haired boy to control his words and deeds had no worries.

Its main purpose has been achieved, and the cave is like a large web woven by a spider. Once the prey touches it, there is no possibility of breaking free.

It can only be slowly, slowly, eaten away by it a little bit.

'……hateful! '

Edogawa Conan couldn't help gritting his teeth.

Faced with this situation, even if he sensed something strange, there was absolutely no way to solve the predicament.

This is different from any previous cases. No matter how dangerous the previous incidents were, at least they could test wisdom and strategies to overcome difficulties.

But now, in the face of an enemy whose strength gap is too great to be dealt with by ordinary people, he can only——

"Can't tell, the cave is quite spacious?"

At that time, the two who entered first still seemed to be unaware of the abnormality.

Atobe Keigo regretted it as soon as he came in.

Not only was it pitch black in the cave, but I couldn't even see my own hand out in front of my eyes.

When he stepped on it, he could feel the dust splashed all over the ground. The old dust that had accumulated on the ground for many years was really terrifying.

If it wasn't for the pouring rain outside, and if he left "Superman", he would most likely be hit by all kinds of unglamorous things. Master Atobe would go out without hesitation, and it would be better to get wet in the rain than to be choked to death by ashes.

Therefore, no matter how broken his heart is, Keigo Atobe can only stay here holding his nose.

"Shh!"

Saitama magically conjured a log with sparks. It didn't take long for the fire to ignite at one end of the log, illuminating the surrounding area within a few meters.

Saitama: "Wow - not only is it spacious, but it's also so deep that you can continue to walk in."

He held the torch and swung it left and right.

The light of the fire also swayed, and the shadow fell on the dark rock wall, as if quietly growing a little bigger.

From such a rough look, the place near the entrance of the cave is indeed still deserted, at least no one has lived here in recent decades, and the animals in the forest do not seem to come to the cave to build their nests.

"That's kind of weird."

Atobe Jingwu said: "Generally speaking, aren't caves the favorite nests of some large animals? However, this place is too clean."

Cleanliness here means that there is no trace of activity, excluding dust all over the floor.

On the premise that he is not as insightful as a certain detective, Keigo Atobe's reaction is also very fast.

He hasn't thought much about his "companion" yet, after all "Akashi Seijuro" has hardly revealed any flaws.But even so, the problems in this cave were still discovered by Keigo Atobe.

Feels vaguely wrong.

When Saitama said, "Is there something inside?" and wanted to go in, Keigo Atobe said coldly: "There may be large beasts in the depths of the cave. For safety's sake, don't—"

"what?"

With a doubtful tone, someone who took the lead turned around.

The background was pitch black, only Saitama's lifeless and dull face was shrouded in dim yellow flames, his brows were blackened, and his face reflected a fantastic light that would have a huge impact on others.

Eyes, even more...

fear!terror!to!pole!

Atobe Keigo:"……"

Just like a horror movie, just like a scary ghost.

If a cowardly person stood here, he would be scared to death on the spot!

However, Keigo Atobe was able to hold on.

His heart stopped for a moment, and he slowed down.

And, at the same time, I remembered that I also made a huge mistake.

The boy and the man looked at each other for three seconds.

"It's okay, let's go."

Even if there is a giant beast in the depths of the cave, it is impossible to be this man's opponent!

Atobe Keigo was deeply ashamed that his thinking was still in the normal area.

The last shackles are broken, and all common sense is let go.

humming-

The two who opened the way in front strode quickly, discussing how dark and unhygienic the cave was while walking, as if this was a leisurely spring outing.

Indeed, Saitama is a symbol of absolute security.

Walking with him for a long time, it seems that no matter what happens, there is no need to worry, and no matter how horrible things are encountered, they can be resolved lightly - such almost bold ideas are always easy to come to mind.

"The passage seems to be starting to go down?"

"Well, the deeper you go, the deeper you go, there must be something down there."

"I saw the exit—oh, it's not the exit, is there more space inside!"

After walking straight for about 10 minutes, the passage extending to the ground came to an end, but when I went to see it, it hadn't reached the end yet.

After crossing the exit at the end, looking forward, there is still a piece of heaven and earth.

There are many passages that turn around and lead to nowhere, and there are many intersections, so you can't tell the direction. If you go in a random direction, you may walk a long way before you find that it is a dead end. In the end, you have to turn back...

In other words.

"It's a maze, this one."

"Yes, it's a maze."

"..."

Atobe Keigo's eyes twitched.

"It's just a cave, and there's actually a labyrinth hidden under the ground—the legend of Milotauros? It's really not gorgeous!"

"Hey, it's okay." Saitama still didn't respond in any unnecessary way, neither shocked nor flustered.

He seemed very interested in this labyrinth buried underground.

On the way down, he left the giant python that had been dragging for a long time because it was too in the way.Now, only the eagle was holding its talons by the man, and the look of drooping its head seemed lifeless.

("After all, this is a gift for Eric! It's hard to find it if you lose it." Saitama said.)

"Do you want to enter this maze?"

Akashi Seijuro and the two also came.

Edogawa Conan didn't say anything, only the red-haired boy looked forward, with worry on his face: "Even if it's not difficult to get there, it will definitely take a lot of time, why don't you go back first..."

"I see. It's okay."

Saitama said: "It's all here, let's go over and see what's going on."

It's not difficult--it's not difficult at all.

In order to save time, the man also became direct and straightforward if his behavior style was unknowingly infected by Eric.

The torch was handed over to Atobe Keigo, and his vacant right arm was swung by him as if flexing his muscles, and then it felt almost done.

Saitama didn't know how to go through the maze correctly, and he didn't know which direction the exit was.

But, just rely on your feeling, if you make a mistake once, then change your direction, and you will definitely be able to find it in the end.

So, he really walked up to a wall at random, waved his free arms, and touched forward——

There is nothing wrong, it is indeed "touching", not smashing.

Anyway, these things are very fragile, and they shatter when touched.

The sound that spread in an instant was extremely violent, and the apparently ancient earthen wall shattered, and the fragments were scattered all over the place.

Saitama began to clear the way ahead again.

There is no need to detour in the maze, he only leads the boys behind to walk straight, touches wherever he goes, and destroys countless public facilities (?).

"If the maze has an owner, if you haven't been pissed off after seeing this scene, it's time to rush out and settle accounts with us."

Atobe Keigo unknowingly became the most talkative person, this must not be discovered by the uncle himself.

The main reason is that now, apart from Saitama, he is the only one who is extremely peaceful, without any strange emotions.

The other two were either restrained from opening their mouths, or they had ulterior motives, brewing a conspiracy that was about to be revealed.

--Soon.

"almost."

After walking straight ahead and bumping into a cave wall with no way out, I turned right again, and then turned left for a few rounds. It seemed that I was finally going to see a flat land that suddenly opened up.

The light released by the burning flame illuminates a dark area in front of the feet, but due to the insufficient light level, the deeper scenes need to get closer to gradually unlock.

The two people at the beginning seemed to have no fear, and they walked forward so directly.

Oh, little by little I see clearly.

The first thing exposed was the generally black ground, and further on, there was no extra sundries on the ground, but the color gradually deepened.

Going forward, the surrounding space that cannot be touched by sight is wider.

Atobe Keigo always pays attention to his feet, if he accidentally guesses something that cannot be mentioned, it will make Mr. Atobe go crazy on the spot.

Fortunately, after such a long time, he fortunately did not find the existence of strange objects.

But don't wait to breathe a sigh of relief.

"Tsk, it's nothing..." The expression that was about to relax suddenly froze, and then he was a little surprised, a little surprised, and the expression that seemed to be delusional spread on his face: "Wait, the one we stepped on—"

Saitama: "Huh?"

This man really seemed to be out of state at all times, and he was completely unaware of the weirdness without being reminded by the young man around him.

The torch plummeted, and Keigo Atobe lowered it to illuminate the ground they were walking on.

The color has been deepening all the time. At first, I thought it was just the change of the soil, but at this time, with the help of the firelight, I found that this change is actually very problematic.

I thought it was black, but at this moment, the mixture of the ground is actually a blood red that tends to black after a certain degree of depth!

"Shh-"

Atobe Keigo suddenly turned the fire back to the side, and the originally shrunk flame was blown by the wind, as if it had gained a boost, and it was enlarged a little bit hard, enough to illuminate more things.

"...Don't make fun of me."

The boy's voice seemed to be blurred by the darkness, revealing only an indistinct weirdness.

He almost thought he was wrong, because the crimson light alone was disturbing enough to solidify the ground, and he could still vaguely see a brighter red.

Like long lines poured out of blood, the long lines seem to be alive, criss-crossing and criss-crossing by themselves according to certain rules.

It's still too dark.

The long bloody lines contained arcs that seemed to be part of a great circle pattern, and also contained some special runes.

And now, they couldn't see the whole picture of the pattern that filled the space under their feet.

Unless, the entire wide space is suddenly illuminated at this moment——

"……what?!"

Caught off guard.

Keigo Atobe's expression froze on his face, and his body leaned back.

Before realizing what happened, he was pushed by Saitama for unknown reasons.With this flight, it flew extremely far, and when it landed, it rolled uncontrollably on the ground several times.

Atobe Keigo:"??!"

Saitama's strength is well controlled, ensuring the distance, and not hurting the flying boy, but it's just a little fuzzy...

No, that's not the point!

Immediately afterwards, Keigo Atobe stood up, the horror on his face was fully revealed: "Wait, what kind of development is this again!"

Where they stood before, is now brightly lit.

Although, the light leaking from the ground is not a bright white light, but a red light that blends with the blood on the ground, revealing an endlessly strange and disturbing color.

Air waves also rose from the ground for no reason, blowing up the corner of the man's clothes who opened his mouth slightly.

The strange red light covered the ground, forming a huge circular pattern.

Even a layman should be able to see that this pattern is clearly some kind of ominous magic circle!

Saitama: "Ah."

Surrounded by the soaring red light, he was still sighing, it turned out to be a trap.

It is still very likely that it is a trap for him.

But who is it?In the depths of this dark labyrinth, such a trap has been set up to lure them...

"Whoosh..."

"Huh, hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha!"

Saitama raised his head, but still didn't see the slightest bit of flustered eyes falling on the red-haired boy who suddenly let out such a wild laugh.

"Young Akashi, be careful not to choke if you laugh so exaggeratedly."

Saitama persuaded: "Look at you, your eyes have changed color from being choked. Oh, it has become golden, is it infected by a virus?"

He seemed sincere, but the other party didn't appreciate it.

"—Stupid humans."

Saitama: "This opening line..."

"It doesn't take much effort to get here, it saves me the thought of deliberately guiding you to come here, stupid! But I have to say, this is the most correct choice you humble reptiles made at the end of your life!"

"No, what, I seem to..."

"If you set foot in the sacrificial circle, there is no possibility of escape. Give up. As for this matter, you have nowhere to escape from the slightly troublesome bugs! Haha, hahahahahaha!"

"..."

The current situation can probably be glimpsed from the above speeches.

Saitama is trapped.

The magic circle under his feet - it seems to be something incomprehensible like a sacrificial circle - locks him.

He hasn't done anything yet, it's different from the red light, between white and transparent, as if an unknown substance composed of light spots floated out of his body, was pulled violently by the red light, and began to be continuously enchanted by the law. burst of absorption.

If all the white things floating out of his body were pulled out, something bad might happen.This is what Saitama got a hunch.

He didn't need to think about what the hell it was, the mastermind behind the scenes would tell the answer by himself.

"Oh - what pure magic power, this precision, this weight, it's much more perfect than I thought it would be!"

This space located deep in the ground is illuminated by the dazzling red and white pillars of light, and it is now completely bright.

The red-haired boy couldn't help but took a step forward, with a look of greed and excitement that was finally no longer concealed.

He was Akashi Seijuro - of course it couldn't be.

To be precise, the body is Akashi Seijuro's.But when this body landed on the island, it waited for an opportunity to lurk in, and the "creature" that quietly took away the control of the body not long ago existed in another way.

The body that belongs to human beings reveals an eyeball that can only be possessed by other species.

The slightly shrunken golden vertical pupils and the greedy smile made the "boy"'s face even more ferocious, with no trace of the original.

"Humans, don't act rashly. You care about this little devil. If you make a slight move, I will tear the little devil's throat."

"..."

"Very good, a door-to-door offering."

Appreciating the brilliance in front of his eyes, as well as the "sacrifice" whose magic power has been absorbed, "it" is very satisfied, quite satisfied.

There is ecstasy in my heart that the goal I have been waiting for for many years has finally been achieved, and on this basis, the fire of revenge is rekindled!

"Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha!"

"As a sacrifice for my demon dragon Absolon Dedurk Slater Ebike's rebirth, sacrifice your humble life!!!"

……

——The dragon Absolon Dedurk Slater Abik, the noble status and the sacredness of the blood, thousands of years later, it is impossible for mortals who even have pitiful magic power to know.

This Lord Absoron was born in Britain, where the mystery has never disappeared for thousands of years, but he is a legendary god-species beast whose strength can be compared with the upper-middle-level heroic spirits.

Once upon a time, it was the overlord who occupied one side.

Absoron has the nature of a dragon. It uses the underground under the mountains as its lair, and fills the cave with the gold and silver treasures it has searched, shining brightly everywhere.

In addition, it also has a bad taste that can be regarded as a life adjustment.

The dragon's lair is very close to the human town, and every few days, it will attack the town to capture human beings, and only catch one human being at a time, listening to the screams of reptiles for joy.

It also casts labyrinths outside its caverns, in which the knights who come to slay it out of righteous indignation get lost.

All the ignorant humans who entered Lord Absoron's labyrinth were teased to death by him as toys after dinner, and not even the wreckage remained.

Magic Absolon is quite satisfied with such a life.

It has only two hobbies: treasure and listening to human screams.Compared with similar ones, it is already quite dull.

Absolen only wants to live a peaceful life of picking gold every day and eating people occasionally.

but.

How could a dragon think of...

That day.

It was the day that Lord Absoron was shrouded in a silver nightmare!

The sky was dark and the ground was dark, and blood flowed for hundreds of miles.

"Cunning nightmare! Not only brought two weak humans into my lair, but also attracted that demon—woohoo! Hateful!"

These shouts were like weeping and complaining, as if they were fused with real blood and tears, the grief was unbearable, and the hoarse was exhausted.

Thousands of years ago, an unspeakable day.

A nightmare leads two little reptile humans into Lord Absolon's labyrinth, threatening to attack it.

Lord Abu Sauron didn't take it seriously at all at the time, and even treated the little reptiles as toys that he offered to the door, and prepared to breathe fire and burn them to death when they got tired of playing with them.

It didn't expect.

It was really unexpected.

The little reptiles are weak, and Nightmare can be killed with a single claw.

However, before Nightmare was slapped to death by it, he shamelessly brought in a human foreign aid!

……

No, can't recall.

Because of the tragic situation at that time, it has become a deep and large psychological shadow, which is permanently engraved in the heart of Lord Abu Sauron.

Before thinking about it, I couldn't help but tremble all over.

Lord Absolon was brutally killed by that human.

The wings were forcibly ripped off, the dragon's head was trampled into the ground, the most precious reverse scales were pulled out with one hand, and a nest full of gold, silver and jewels were piled up, all of which were looted, leaving nothing behind!

That is to say, Abu Sauron's blood is special. When the dragon's body was on the verge of death, it was possible to fight the dragon's life to let the dragon's soul escape. It took 1000 years to hide in the corner of the mountain, and it took another 2000 years to slowly recover and recuperate.

In the first 1000 years, Master Absolon was in a daze, shivering, and dared not think of anything related to "silver".

Things got a little better in the next 1000 years. Thinking that the terrible demon was a human being, he must have been completely dead without bones left, so Lord Absolon could regain his courage and return to its former lair.

In the last 1000 years, Lord Absolon wanted to be resurrected.

It took a whole thousand years to restore the former dragon body to its original state, but it was only one percent of its original level.

Magic—magic! ! !

In the world 3000 years later, the magic power is extremely thin, and there is no source of magic power that can completely revive Lord Absolon. Instead, the weak creatures near the cave get the magic power leaked from it and mutate one after another.

Can't last long.

It is wandering in anxiety and unwillingness, and it seems to be trapped in the ground forever...

Hope that's how it appears.

A human being with particularly abundant magic power is simply a ready-made sacrifice for your doorstep!

Lord Absolun was ecstatic, and quickly controlled the red-haired boy who was the only one with a gap in his heart among the three who fell on the island.Its ability at that time could only take advantage of this loophole.

"Hahahahahahahahahahahahaha!"

Ignore the "stop it, it's really noisy" that doesn't have much sense of presence because the sound is too small.

Lord Abu Sauron, who still controlled Akashi Seijuro, laughed wildly. Wherever he looked, behind the magic circle, the dragon body placed in front of the cave wall was already standing upright!

The ceremony was a success!

The red-haired boy who was the temporary host collapsed and was supported by Edogawa Conan.

On the other side, the dragon shadow enveloped the entire cave, revealing darkness and terror.

"Silver devil! If your dead bones hadn't already turned to ashes, I would surely tear you to pieces after my resurrection!"

"Huhahaha! How can I let go of my resentment! I want to burn the world into a sea of ​​blood, and wipe out all the reptiles—"

"Hi. Hey. Well, I've called you so many times."

Demon Dragon: "?!"

No wonder it was so surprised.

Because the person who spoke was Saitama.

After being drained of magic power for so long, Saitama, this seemingly ordinary human being, is actually... still the same as he was at the beginning.

His expression didn't change, his eyes didn't change, he even changed his stance because of boredom.

He was actually still alive and kicking! ! !

"Maybe I'm being rude, but can I ask a question?"

"..."

"Silver devil... Ah, sorry, I made you tremble repeatedly!"

"Big big big big bold!"

"No, I just think this description is quite familiar, and I want to ask..."

Saitama: "If the who you are talking about is a man with long silver hair, golden eyes, tall and mighty, indifferent and cool, who can squeeze ice with bare hands..."

"To tell you the truth, he is right next to you right now?"

- Click.

Coincidentally.

No, it is Yuanjia Road is narrow.

Still not right, it should be destined to have such a catastrophe——

On the wall on the right side of the cave, there was a clicking sound.Then a door swung open, revealing a hidden passage.

"Silver devil?"

Eric: "Are you talking about me?"

Demon Dragon: "..."

Demon Dragon: "..."

"save……"

"Help...AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!"

The author has something to say: Unexpectedly, it is Mr. Long who was once slaughtered by Eric Adult Body
