The Dragon That Devours the World

"Roberts, there is one thing I want to ask you... Have you ever thought about..."

At the window of the flying saucer, Wendy, who suddenly called Roberts, was silent for a moment. She turned her back to Roberts and said hesitantly. Looking at the azure blue planet under her, her eyes flickered, and there was a certain brilliance in her bright eyes.

This fashion girl, who is already 30 years old but still single, seems to have lost its effect on her body, her appearance is as if she was in her early twenties.

She turned her back to Roberts behind her, showing only half of her profile. The deep space and the blue planet under her seemed not as beautiful as the half of her profile.

Roberts knew exactly what she wanted, but he also understood that he couldn't give her any promises, but even if he wanted to refuse, she would definitely change the subject silently before he refused, and she would not let herself. The possibility of rejection, and then continue to look forward to one day in the future that I will agree.

"Wendy, I..."

He speaks openly, and according to past experience, whenever he wants to decisively refuse, he will inevitably sound a cheerful voice to deliberately divert the topic, not giving himself a chance to refuse.

but…

No.

Right in front of him, the slender figure with his back to him did not speak again this time, but quietly looked forward to his own answer.

But Roberts's keen insight could see that the clasped hands with her back facing her figure, the fingers were so tightly gripped, they almost squeezed white marks... She was very nervous, and she even had to turn her back to Roberts. , In order to barely maintain their calmness.

In the eyes of ordinary people, the flower of the high mountain, the highly sought-after **** queen, is just like the 8-year-old girl in front of Roberts. She lowered her head, just clenched her hands, and dare not say anything. .

Roberts was silent for a moment, but still said.

"Wendy, I'm sorry, I only love Betty in my life. In my eyes, you are always like one of my sisters."

After so many years, Roberts finally said this sentence, as if there was a boulder falling in his heart, he could not help but feel a little relaxed, but what followed was his worries about Wendy, he did not want to hurt himself like a sister. Wendy.

But unexpectedly, Wendy just lowered her head without showing any sadness, just bit her lower lip, as if she had anticipated all this, and then just murmured.

"Then... have you ever had a good impression of me... even occasionally... even just a little..."

As she said, she lowered her head and saw her hands, her slender fingers intertwined unconsciously, and the voice asked with a little bit of confidence. The refusal over the past ten years has made her lose confidence. In fact, she has already accepted this reality, but there is still a trace of unwillingness in her heart.

It’s just a little bit. She doesn’t want to fight with sister Betty, but it’s really just a little bit...

With his back to Roberts, but behind...

There is no response.

The heart sank a little bit into the darkness, gradually desperate.

And looking at the inexplicably sad figure, Roberts couldn't bear it. He knew that the best way at the moment was to deny it categorically, but he couldn't deceive himself and Wendy. After a long time, he nodded.

"…Had."

In an instant, the slender figure in front of him seemed to froze. Roberts could not see her face clearly, but he could feel that she was experiencing intense mood changes at this moment.

Suddenly, a little shining crystal object appeared in front of Roberts, the little shining transparent like glass, floating like a pearl in the flying saucer with only a few gravity, and the source of the crystal is...

"Wendy, you..."

Before the words fell, Roberts stopped his voice.

In front of him, Wendy turned her head, and in front of the azure blue planet behind her, there was a little tear in the eye sockets on the face of Yixiyi's anger at this moment. The tears did not fall, just wandering nostalgicly beside the bright eyes, There was unprecedented joy in those eyes.

"I'm very happy, Roberts, I'm really happy."

Her voice was a little choked, and there were tears in her eyes, but there was only inner happiness and joy on her face.

Human beings are such wonderful creatures. When they are extremely angry, they have a smile on their faces; but when they are truly happy, they often have tears on their faces.

"Roberts, I'm very happy. I kept telling myself that I should laugh and shouldn't cry in front of you, but I don’t know why, but my eyes don’t listen to me. I can’t help but want to cry... Roberts, I’m Not very useless."

"Wendy, I..."

Just about to say something, that soft body hugged him, and his lips were gently blocked. He subconsciously wanted to push it away, but suddenly found that his body was soft and weak, and the softness came from his lips.

"Wendy, you..."

But it was not finished yet, but only a greasy female voice rang in her ears.

"It's okay... Don't feel guilty, everything is my fault, you have done nothing... You treat it as a dream... Roberts, you are the only person I have ever loved..."

In this space flying saucer specially designed for invading the earth, there is an extremely wide space that can accommodate a dozen Atlanteans, not to mention human beings who are not as tall as the Atlanteans. Did not realize what happened in this cubicle.

During that time, Roberts seemed to be awake in a dream, as if he was embraced by the gentle clouds. He rarely relaxed, but he heard a voice muttering in the dimly...

"I'm sorry, Sister Betty... I'm sorry, Roberts... I'm very happy, Roberts..."

"Goodbye, Roberts."

…

Inside an underground church somewhere in London, England.

The original sign of the cross has long been cleared, and replaced by a large number of snake-themed sculptures and patterns. The worship and fanatical belief in snakes are not concealed in this church, which is full of pagan beliefs that are different from the world.

Since that night's change, all monks in the monastery who did not believe in the father of the snake have been cleaned up, and the rest are old monks who insist on believing in "snakes and truth", they continue to take over all the monks in the monastery. Small forces, while eliminating the old forces that may remain.

And all this happened under the gaze of the cold big snake sculpture...

At the foot of the big snake sculpture, many old monks crawled and murmured in prayer. The servants of God and the monastery of the past have completely become believers at the feet of the snake. As Uberto said, both Uberto and the Priory are too close to the truth.

It is not that people are chasing knowledge, but knowledge is chasing people. Its pursuit is ruthless, just like a falcon in the sky chasing a rabbit on the ground.

At this moment, the Priory has been overtaken by the once dusty knowledge. The knowledge is born from the body of a mortal, just as many vultures gather on the corpse, gnawing the flesh and blood on the corpse with their claws and sharp mouths, in the form of greed. Gourmet feast.

In the past, the retreat would abandon many supernatural forces and regard them as "a flaw in the creation of the world, something that should not exist." Every old monk is just an ordinary mortal, governing many small forces according to human rules, but now these old monks are covered with snake scales and the characteristics of beasts, and they do not conceal their miracles.

"The son of God who is burdened with fate has returned to the earth, and soon, my lord will wake up from that ancient sleep."

The headed old monk opened his scaly arms, raised his head, and celebrated the step by step progress of fate.

The many old monks behind them were equally delighted. They opened their mouths wide, exposing their mouths full of sharp teeth, and then unanimously leaned down at the big snake sculpture in front of them, singing with a low and disgusting weird voice.

"C-GNAIIH-OG!PH'NILGH'RI-N'GHFT-OR!SYHA'H-FHTAGN-THROD, H'NYTH-STELL'BSNA-OOBOSHU!YA-YAR-HAI-THARANAK!"

Our Father, the power that transcends all darkness, that almost eternal sleep is about to end, your servants look forward to your coming, our time is coming...

The singing shook the entire underground church and made this ancient church hum.

…

At the same time, in the air, inside the flying saucer was another scene.

"Boom!"

With a furious fist hitting Uberto's head hard, the thin young man was directly beaten into the air. He only heard a puff, the young man's body hit the instrument, and the blood oozing out gushed out. .

The embarrassed young man barely supported the metal floor, before he could stand up, he was dizzy, and then he was clenched by the collar by a thick big hand, and his clenched furious fists quickly enlarged in front of him. It spreads into a huge shadow...

"Boom!"

It was a similar feeling again. The huge force hit the face bones, causing the bones to scream, and the head hit the metal floor directly. Accompanied by the severe pain, it was a dizzy world, and the saliva in the mouth could not be suppressed. When I was born, everything in front of me seemed to be dark, and I could hardly see.

"Dad... don't fight anymore!"

"Cough...cough cough..."

Falling to the ground feebly, in front of the chaotic eyes, a young girl's panicked voice faintly sounded in her ears.

I don’t know why that fist didn’t fall on him anymore, he coughed a few times, and vomited the blood out of his throat. Uberto managed to open his eyes, blood red in front of him, but he could still see the angry face, but was caught by his daughter. Roberts stood in front of him and tried his best to stop him.

"Joan, you let me go, this guy actually pushed Wendy down into the sea... he killed Wendy..."

Apart from the angry and desperate voice, Joan tried his best to dissuade.

"Cough...hehe, if you don't kill her, we should be the one who died just now."

However, Uberto, who was lying on the ground with severe pain and multiple wounds, glanced at Roberts, struggling to prop up his body, and said shaky.

"Roberts, use your mind to think about it. That woman probably had some signs a while ago. Even if she is tight-lipped about you, she will reveal something."

"Sign? What sign?"

Roberts, who was already extremely angry, barely suppressed some of his anger with reason, and squeezed a word from his teeth.

In front of him, Uberto, who struggled to stand up, glanced at him.

"Roberts, the entire monastery is crazy, everyone is crazy, they are too in touch with the truth, but why do you think Wendy, the guardian of the monastery, will have no effect?"

"I said, don’t trust Wendy too much, because even if she doesn’t want to hurt us, she is a time bomb, she may change one day. Wendy has been infected, and she is changing step by step. She knew this a long time ago, so she had told me and Joan a long time ago."

"Now on this flying saucer, except you don’t know, neither I nor Joan knows about this! Roberts, Wendy is only hiding from you, she doesn’t want you to know about this. If I didn’t tell her in time just now Push down into the sea, you and I are the three who are dead now!"

The sudden voice made Roberts bewildered, his steps became a little awkward, Joan hurriedly supported his father, but Roberts didn't realize it, just looked at Joan and muttered blankly.

"Joan...is this true."

Joan didn't speak, but lowered his head silently, but this was actually equivalent to acquiescence.

If only Uberto said so, Roberts could be the guy talking nonsense, but if even his daughter said the same, Roberts would not believe it.

Enduring the pain, Uberto barely breathed, and then said earnestly to Roberts.

"Roberts, think about it, I haven't harmed you in the past few months of our cooperation? I have been helping you all the time."

"I don't want to push Wendy into the sea. Originally, we planned to wait and tell you that she will not really change for a while, but I didn't know why not long ago. It might be some kind of stimulation. The mutation speed suddenly accelerated, maybe even she herself didn’t notice it, I had to do it..."

Roberts didn't listen to all of this at the moment, but he only noticed such a sentence.

"...I don't know why, it may be that she was stimulated by some kind of stimulation, and her mutation speed suddenly accelerated..."

"Goodbye, Roberts."

In a daze, the dim female voice rang in his ears again, and he vaguely guessed the reason in his heart, and his heart was completely blank.

After being silent for a while, Roberts said in a hoarse voice.

"What do you mean by the change in your mouth."

Uberto panted slightly, then replied.

"Snake. The body gradually shows the characteristics of a snake. Scales grow, teeth become sharp, bones will be deformed, and finally a snake tail will grow, which looks like a snake walking upright like a human. ."

"The female sculpture we obtained from the moon has something inside it that is the source of all these problems. It seals some mysterious secrets. The more you try to pursue those secrets, you will gradually be captured by those'secrets'. Eroded, and finally "snakeified"."

"You should still find some runes on that sculpture. Those are ancient mages trying to seal the statue with the help of the power of the gods. The symbols of the gods in various religions are on that statue, but the effect is... hehe, You saw it too."

Roberts turned his head to look at him, and said blankly.

"I watched Wendy grow up when she was 8 years old. I know everything about her. How did she become the guardian of the monastery? She obviously couldn't do such a thing."

"Then have you ever thought...she was actually the guardian of the Priory before she was 8 years old?"

Uberto stared at Roberts coldly and said word by word.

"She keeps hiding her secrets from you, she knows more than you."

"What is the guardian of the Priory?"

Roberts looked at Uberto with a cold expression. There was no emotion on his face, but everyone who knew him knew that the more he showed extreme indifference and calmness, the more it proved that the anger in his heart had reached the limit.

"...A secret you still can't know."

Uberto was silent for a moment, and continued.

Roberts clenched his fist, his forehead violently violently, and suddenly he stepped forward, clenching Uberto's collar with one hand, and forcing him against the metal wall.

"Boom!"

Uberto was hit hard against the metal wall, his feet hanging in the air, his body could not use any strength.

In front of him, Roberts' pupils faintly had flames, which was one of the few supernatural powers contained in his body. When he was angry, that kind of flame would appear in his pupils.

"Secrets, secrets, UU reading www.uukanshu.com Wendy is dead, are you still telling me secrets???"

The hair that was shed made Roberts look like an angry male lion, and Uberto felt the threat of death.

"Hiccup... Roberts, the less people know about some secrets, the better... Neither I nor Wendy... would never want you to know this secret. This will only put you and Joan in danger..."

Being oppressed by power, Uberto almost couldn't breathe, he said laboriously.

Roberts remained silent for a long time, his anger seemed to be gradually fading away. But at this moment, all of a sudden, his gaze turned to Uberto's wrist, and then he was inexplicably stunned, as if he had seen something incredible.

Uberto followed his gaze, and then he was also stunned.

On his wrist, there are a few transparent snake scales, which are not big, but they are especially conspicuous...

Finally, this self-proclaimed Da Vinci-like genius also began to snake into his mouth.
