The Great Arcanist Who Traveled Through the World of American Variety Shows
Chapter 371: The King of Salary
The figure rushed up quickly, but before he got close, he was instantly penetrated by a golden light, and his already decayed body was directly broken into two pieces under this force.
The corpses scattered on the ground, twitched slightly, and soon died.
Richard did not stop and continued to walk out. There was no idea how many people were buried here. As far as the eye could see, there were tombs or coffins everywhere. The whole mountain seemed to be a huge tomb.
Leaving this barren mountain, Richard soon came to a dilapidated monastery.
And just when he came here, in an extremely ancient sacrificial field, a huge throne stood above the sacrificial field, but unfortunately the throne was empty, without any figure, and a weak bonfire was burning in the center of the sacrificial field, and the erratic flame seemed to be extinguished in the next second.
At this moment, a deep voice sounded in the sacrificial field:
"The new king has arrived!"
"Embers without fire! Go! Find this king and bring him back. He will be the best firewood of this era!"
"His soul will burn and illuminate the whole world again!"
"And we will enter the era of light again!"
Richard didn't know that he had become the best firewood king of this era, able to illuminate the whole world. After the system tower spirit analyzed the rules of this world, he already knew what world he had come to.
A world that is about to be destroyed, relying on the burning of the fire kings, a world that is struggling to survive, and also a desperate world.
Richard didn't see a normal living person along the way, only those zombies wandering aimlessly. These zombies posed no threat to Richard, and Richard's death power easily killed them.
Walking into this ruined monastery, Richard was ready to see if there were any books and records here. At this moment, Richard suddenly found that a little candlelight came out of the darkness.
Living people? Richard had an angry thought in his mind, and then he walked towards the side hall.
Soon, a bright room appeared in front of him. When he approached, he saw a figure wearing a gray shabby cloak. The figure was hunched and skinny, and seemed to be a woman. At this time, she was holding a wooden spoon and stirring a large pot in front of her.
There was a bonfire burning under the pot, and some liquid in the pot was bubbling. The person stirred the pot very attentively, as if the liquid in the pot was very important to her. Soon some green foam appeared, and she took out some gray-white powder from the side.
There were also a pile of broken bones scattered next to the powder, which seemed to be ground.
"It's finally done!"
"Just add these!"
The skinny woman kept pouring these suspected ashes into the pot.
The pot immediately boiled, a large number of bubbles rolled, and a burst of green light emerged, which looked extremely weird. But the skinny woman was very excited. She immediately took a spoonful of liquid with a wooden spoon and drank it impatiently.
Then, a strange picture appeared.
The skinny woman's skinny body was revived, and her shriveled muscles became plump. Her body was like a deflated balloon that began to inflate again.
The skinny skeleton turned into a middle-aged woman in the blink of an eye.
But she didn't stop. She continued to scoop the liquid with a spoon and drank it quickly. One spoonful and two spoonfuls, she was no longer satisfied with the spoon, and she directly picked up the pot and poured the liquid into her mouth.
And her body was like a balloon, from shriveled to plump, and quickly expanded. Finally, in the blink of an eye, it turned into a fat man of more than 200 pounds like a balloon.
"Bone ash soup?" Richard couldn't help asking.
"Who is it!" After hearing Richard's voice, the woman was very alert. She put the big pot in her hand behind her and picked up a big iron hammer next to the broken bones.
Richard walked into the room and asked, "Who are you? Is there anyone alive here?"
The woman looked at Richard vigilantly. Soon after seeing Richard's appearance clearly, the woman's eyes flashed with a hint of surprise, followed by greed, and then said respectfully: "Unknown King, please forgive my offense!"
"You didn't offend me." Richard asked again: "Where is this? What happened here? Is there anyone alive?"
"This is the Dark Church!" The woman looked at Richard, as if to confirm something, and then said.
"The church that serves the Mother of Rebirth - Rosalia."
"Mother of Rebirth?"
"How can there be a god with this name?" The names and titles of gods have strict rules. Not only the righteous gods, but also the evil gods, their titles must be related to their main duties. They cannot be given at will.
Just like the Mother of Rebirth, if you use this title, you must master the priesthood of [Rebirth]. If you want to make rebirth condense into a priesthood, will everyone here be reborn after death?
If the dead are reborn, what about the natural rules of this world? Is this going to go to war with the god of death?
Richard was very skeptical about this title of god, and the woman in front of him just drank the bone ash soup, and she didn't look like a normal person at all. But who made her the only aboriginal who could communicate so far?
"Do you have any books here that record history and this world?" Richard wanted to know more about this world.
There was a greedy look in the woman's eyes, as if she understood something, and she quickly said: "Yes, yes, we have books from the past here, and there is a library here in the church, which has what you want!"
The woman said enthusiastically, then opened the side door with a bunch of keys and led Richard inside. In the empty hall of the church, there were also many living corpses, but these living corpses were all kneeling in front of an altar.
I don't know how long these living corpses have been there. They are all emaciated. The altar is empty except for a basin. These living corpses have no reaction to Richard's arrival and are still kneeling on the ground.
"Almost there, right in front!" came the woman's voice.
Richard followed her through a courtyard. There was a dry tree in the courtyard, and at the top of the tree was a skinny human. It looked very strange, eerie and terrifying.
This shabby place is actually a monastery, and it must be a cult.
Soon the two came to a closed library. The woman opened the door, then made an invitation gesture to Richard and said, "Dear guest, there is what you are looking for inside."
The woman looked at Richard expectantly, as if she really wanted to let him enter the room. Obviously, there was something wrong with this room, not to mention that this woman had no good intentions from the beginning. Richard could sense the corruptive force in the room.
What she did just now didn't look like a normal person.
The tower spirit's scanning aura flashed slightly.
The next second, the information about the woman in front of him appeared in front of him.
[Name: Human Pus; Level: Extraordinary
property:
Corruption corrupted the Twisted Sister. 】
"Okay, no need to act here, your usefulness is over!"
Richard did not go in, and looked at the woman in front of him coldly. No, she could no longer be called a human. She now completely became a monster. Seeing that the plan failed, countless bugs suddenly flew out from behind the woman. These black bugs were like a dark cloud, flying towards Richard quickly.
"boom!"
A dazzling fire appeared instantly, and those black bugs were burned to ashes in an instant. Immediately afterwards, a bolt of lightning flashed from Richard's hand, and then flew out instantly, hitting the fat monster directly.
The powerful power of thunder directly penetrated its body, and in the next second countless weird, sticky, and disgusting black substances poured out of its body. These substances seemed to be alive, but the next second they were destroyed by the lightning. Completely eliminated.
The powerful power of thunder illuminated the entire courtyard at this moment, and a pitiful cry rang out. The black viscous substance was quickly annihilated in the lightning, and finally turned into a puddle of ashes.
For such a disgusting thing, Richard did not hesitate to use magic power. He killed it directly with several thunder spears, and even his body was directly purified by thunder and lightning.
In the end, the monster left only a black ashes. On the ground next to her, a book was scattered on the ground. This was the book she had been carrying just now. Just now, she seemed to want to use it to cast spells, but unfortunately, Richard did not give her a chance.
Richard gently recruited, and the book flew into his hands.
"The system tower spirit will make an appraisal!"
A flash of spiritual light flashed, and the properties of the book appeared before his eyes.
[Item: Deep Holy Scripture; Level: Extraordinary; Material: Human Skin;
Attributes: Books that record some profound secrets and some divine arts. After reading, you can use some profound divine spells. 】
Richard frowned, this book was actually a human skin book.
In the world of Motera, only some evil gods use human skin to make religious texts. And every such book is very evil. Just contact with it can make people fall. If you read it, it will cause more serious consequences. I didn't expect to encounter one here.
Richard flipped through the book. His will could easily resist the temptation of the book. This book had no effect on him.
As expected, the content inside records the existence of an evil god who likes to devour humans. However, it was not killed by the evil creatures of the same level, but unexpectedly became the king.
That's right, he is the king.
These people actually regard it as king.
Richard no longer knew how twisted this world was, how could he regard this man-eating evil god as his king?
The content in the book is missing part of the story. It seems that this evil god was able to be called a king because he participated in a ritual called Fire Passing. After completing this ritual, he became a king and received the title of a profound saint. .
Evil things can become saints here. This world is really crazy.
Richard closed the book and purified the evil power from the book. A miserable voice seemed to be heard in the air, and the power in the profound holy book disappeared and became an ordinary book.
Just after Richard casually pinched the thing on the book to death, he sensed a black mud-like existence in an unknown space. However, after sensing Richard, this thing immediately cowered up in fear, and even He took the initiative to cut off all contact.
But even so, the backlash that came with Richard also caused him to suffer a lot of damage.
Richard put the books away casually. He didn't know what happened in this world to make human beings willing to believe in a monster as king and saint.
After dealing with this human pus, Richard walked into the library next door. A skinny monster appeared in the library, but Richard dealt with it directly without waiting for him to attack.
——Light magic!
The soft light illuminated the entire library, and Richard began to look for books here. Those books such as poetry and prose were directly ignored by him, and he directly looked at books about history and mythology.
After flipping through these books, Richard had a clearer understanding of this world.
Although there are many omissions in these books and the content is obscure, he still found what he wanted.
There are indeed gods in this world, or powerful creatures, or demigods. The most powerful one is a guy named Gwyn, but this guy's ending is not very good.
He was burned.
Yes, it was received. This god who claimed to be the Sun King was burned.
This is why Richard felt that he was not a god. If he was really the Sun King, how could he be burned? He himself is the sun.
According to the records of this world, Gwyn is a god in the First Fire Age. At first, this world was dark, and there were immortal ancient trees and dragons in the darkness. At some point, a ball of fire appeared.
Then, light and darkness, life and death, time and space appeared in this world. Richard could understand all of this, which was the creation of the world.
But then it was a bit weird. The species in the darkness of this world were attracted by the fire, automatically gathered around the flames, and obtained the king's soul.
Then in the First Fire Age, these gods began to join forces to deal with those dragons, and finally destroyed these ancient dragons.
The Age of Fire began.
Then the world was full of vitality and seemed very beautiful. This period lasted for a long time until the flames began to weaken.
Seeing the flames weaken, undead people began to appear in the world. At this time, the Sun King Gwyn began to throw his body into the flames to burn, using his own body as firewood to strengthen the power of the flames, wanting to continue this Age of Fire.
The "Fire King" was born from here.
For thousands of years thereafter, in order to continue the power of the flames and prevent the world from being engulfed by darkness, generations of kings were thrown into the flames as firewood to burn.
Well, it turns out that the king is the "fire king", which is used for burning. Richard now understood why the man-eating monster was called the king. It turned out that he was burned.
