Chapter 76
Chapter 76
The crow looked at the head screaming "Kill me" below, the "Leon Factor" had already penetrated into the lump of meat, and he could see deeper: "They just seemed to be a mess, and they couldn't move Putting myself back together, everyone is still everyone, and I was able to separate them again."
A gleam of joy flashed across Archbishop Herta's face, but soon she thought of something: "They...can feel the melting of their bodies?"
"I don't know about this, but I think they should be able to feel it." Leon looked at the two blurred heads, "It's just that the feeling is probably not pain, but mixed with others... not good describe."
It's hard to describe, because it's a living person.Even a slimy slug is a whole and won't mix with anything else.
Subconscious: Like a badly made custard, or melted ice cream.
Leon: Please don't deliberately disgust people, thank you.
Archbishop Huerta's expression became painful again: "No... Let them die, I don't think anyone's spirit can bear this, even if they recover, can they still live normally as a person? They...not you."
Leon smiled: "I understand what you mean, after all, I am not a normal person."
Archbishop Huerta did not explain too much, or apologize, which is obvious.Leon can live a normal life and stand on the relatively good side, but he is not necessarily normal.These human beings do not have Leon's willpower, even if they are restored to human beings, no one can guarantee their future.
In the eyes of Archbishop Huerta, the darkness that filled the entire room suddenly pressed down on the cage.The muddy meat in the ball cage began to separate into balls, the two howling heads closed their mouths, and the faces of the other two heads that were melting became clear...
In just a few minutes, because the physical body was mixed, the overlapping souls became clearly visible.Finally, the first and second complete people appeared in the cage. They looked at their hands and feet and cried with joy. Then they realized something, closed their eyes, and their bodies dissolved into nothingness in joy.
The number of people was small this time, and no special guidance was needed. Archbishop Huerta sang a carol, and they rose into a circle of light on the roof with the light of the singing.
But not everyone is so calm: "Don't die! I want to live!" "You are demons!" "Why interrupt my eternal life!" Some people struggled, they looked at Leon and Archbishop Herta eyes, as if looking at a devil.
Facing this kind of person, the voice of Archbishop Huerta's chants became fierce, and chains appeared in the aperture, directly binding them and pulling them away.
"The things that natural humans do are sometimes unimaginable even by demons." After sending away the last soul, Archbishop Huerta's expression was even more exhausted than the last time he sent thousands of souls.
Also, there is no reward this time.
"Morifeo also said similar things." Leon said, "It seems that the pressure on him is too much, next time I will go back to find dragon's blood."
"No! Let's go find Morifio, don't look at him as an elf, but the real elf is not the crystal doll in the legend. The willpower of the long-lived species, from the moment of birth, has been Stronger than humans. I don't mean anything to that dragon blood knight, but such a pure and innocent child, after seeing this kind of darkness too much, is indeed more likely to be polluted."
"Okay..." There is fierce competition between churches.
"Wait! Regarding the search for the sewer, all our churches and the city hall have not yet reached an agreement." Archbishop Huerta began to rub his forehead again, "Every day a group of big people quarrel, those negative emotions, compared to here There is not much light. We, along with the Church of Light, the Church of the Flower Tree God, and several other churches, decided to abandon those fools and send a group of people into the sewers. Do you have any suggestions?"
"Yes. First, what you think of as a sewer is actually not the lowest level of the city."
"What do you mean?"
"Giant rat people, goblins, giant spiders, I also found some gray dwarves and mushroom people, they are all capable of digging holes. Within the scope of my investigation, there are tens of thousands of huge groups of these things, The sewer is the upper level for them, they have dug through the sewer long ago, and established their own kingdom in the lower level. That is already an extraordinary dungeon."
"I only heard that this kind of thing happened in some big cities... When did Diller City become like this? Well, it seems that we have to re-discuss the number of people to send."
"Secondly, the excavation of these underground organisms is not all smooth sailing. They dug through the groundwater layer, and there is also water leaking from the sewer. I guess this is also an important reason for the pollution of the groundwater in Diller City, but I What I want to talk about is not this. There is an unnaturally formed sewage swamp below here. My power is not very smooth in the water. I only know that there is a huge tribe of murlocs living there, a group of strange fish, and a It should really exist, but I haven't found a huge aquatic monster."
The "Leon Factor" can disguise itself as the wind on the ground, but it is currently having trouble in the water.In most cases, the factor can only be spread by contact with aquatic organisms. If the factor falls into the water, it can only drift with the current.For the time being, Leon can't find a solution.
Archbishop Huerta's mouth opened wide: "What else?"
"Third, there is an undead area here, that is, the kind of place where skeletons and rotting corpses run around. I wanted to look for undead in this area, but I couldn't get in. I think there should be some kind of The divine body, the attribute of a god is death or something like that.”
Leon is alive, even if his factor is a subtle thing that is difficult to detect with the naked eye, it still has the characteristics of living. He can make the factor move with the wind, but once it gets close to a certain range, the factor will be uncontrollable death.It belonged to what this world called the "God's Domain", and Leon couldn't resist.
As for telling this matter to Bishop Herta, does it count as exposing a weakness?This weakness exists in all living creatures, including Archbishop Herta.
Life and death, those are the two basic laws of this world.When a living life enters the realm of death, it can only become dead.
Archbishop Huerta's mouth closed, and she seemed numb: "This, this doesn't seem to be the last."
"Yes, the last thing I want to say now." The big crow flapped its wings, and a small model appeared in front of Archbishop Herta, "This area is roughly equivalent to the area directly below the city hall, and it is also a place that I cannot enter at all." It’s not that there will be death or anything, but the power here is resisting all foreign things, including the air, and I’m isolated. I suspect that the demon came from here.”
The style of this small model is the same type as that demon, the olive meat, and the so-called glue monster before the olive meat was crushed.It is a large piece of flesh and blood that grows together with the roof and the ground. Protruding blood vessels crawl on these flesh and blood, agitating one after another, delivering nutrients to something wrapped in the flesh and blood.Once there is a living thing approaching around, a slender strange hand that is spliced together will drag the living thing into the flesh and blood!As for what happened after being dragged in?Not even Leon knew.
"I've tried parasitizing on other living things, or turning into a mouse, but... I can't say I'm completely out of touch with those parts of me, I know they're alive, but they're being squeezed by another force , making me unable to move at all.”
"...It seems that we don't need to send people to explore. The sewers of Diller City are not likely to be infiltrated by the demons at the bottom, but have already been invaded! I have to immediately..." Archbishop Herta stood up , and sat down again, "Could you please draw a map?"
"I don't have enough paper."
"Morifeo will send it to you!"
"Okay. Besides, Eldy wants to find a suitable place to train..."
"Morifeo will take him there! By the way, there is still a house, and I will find it for you soon! Afternoon! Just in the afternoon!"
Uh... Morifio is really easy to use.
In the afternoon, Morifio came with two large boxes, both of which were filled with large rolls of parchment—actually called parchment, but some parchment was obviously not made of parchment, such as Mori The box that Feo brought was thin and soft, and it had a faint fragrance. It should be some kind of Warcraft leather.I heard that there are still people who use human skin, the skin of boys and girls...
But of course there is no such thing in these two boxes, and the god of nature rejects this behavior.Of the two boxes, one contains blank parchment rolls, while the other contains title deeds: "If you want, I can give it to you. The original words of Archbishop Herta."
"No, I'll just go and see. You can stay and draw the map." Eldy stood up and waved to Leon.
"..." Although it was agreed that Eldy would go out to train by himself, but facing this problem, Leon was still unhappy in various ways.He stared first at Eldi, then at Morifio—if my Eldi loses a hair, I'll have your head!
Morifio couldn't help coughing: "Cough! You can rest assured."
And then...and Eldy left under the gaze of Leon's wide-eyed eyes.
While sitting in the carriage, Morifio couldn't help exhaling.In fact, Leon has the appearance of a child, no matter how scary his expression is, it is not really scary.But he probably knows his true inner self, so once Leon shows negative emotions, he will subconsciously raise his vigilance.
This is probably the so-called, the more you understand, the more you are in awe?
Aldi was fully armed and sat across from Morifio. When he realized it, he had already turned his head towards the car door again.Intellectually, Morifio is someone who can be trusted, but in essence, he is not enough to be trusted by Eldi.In fact, besides Leon, who can make Eldy trust with all his heart?
The previous outings with Leon, whether it was daily shopping or outings, even if it was just resting with eyes closed on the road, was relaxing and enjoyable.Now this is gradually away from home, gradually away from Leon...
Eldy took a deep breath, lowered his head and concentrated on playing with his long sword, pulled it out, inserted it in again, again and again, although the amplitude was very low and the sound was very low, but the frequency remained the same.He himself felt even more irritable when he heard it, and knew that he had disturbed Morifio, but he just couldn't stop.
"In fact, your development is already very outstanding compared to children of your age. In fact, I have never seen a few little knights of your age who have already awakened. After all, receiving knight training is One thing, but awakening is another."
"You mean, aren't you sure how to train me?"
"From my experience as a knight, as long as you are an awakened person, you should receive training according to the level of awakening, or make up for it. I'm just not sure, whether your age can allow you to withstand the intensity of training? To be honest Said, I am afraid of your companion, although I know that you will not cry and act like a baby to him, but I think, with his attention and concern for you, if you just show some displeasure or disgust, I will face a huge risk."
"Obviously it won't help if I just say you don't need to worry about any risks, right?"
"Yes."
"But I can only say that verbally." Eldi spread his hands, "And, I will always be by Leon's side, and I will experience various joys or difficulties with him. And I think there will always be those times when it is necessary The strength of the two of us is gathered, or I need to protect myself. If at that time, it is proved by the facts that my ability is only a good-looking thing, then that will be the beginning of the tragedy. "
"...You are right." Morifio nodded, "It must be admitted that this sentence is too convincing. Then, the training you are about to face will be tailor-made for you, and it is also an urgent training session. Are you ready for the training that is stuck on your limit?"
"bring it on!"
Uh... The result of this "come on" was that that night, Eldy, who was completely unconscious, was brought home by Morifio under his arm.
"Need I tell you what he's been through?" Morifeo handed Eldy to Leon.
"Need. The scope of the various areas of the Church of the God of Nature is not my control area."
Morifio nodded: "The content of his training today is to be beaten."
Leon with the look of you teasing me: "..."
"It's not that I want to beat him, it's that as a knight, I need to be beaten! On the one hand, an injury within the acceptable level of the body can allow him to adapt to the fusion of grudge and body muscles and bones faster, and make him stronger. On the other hand On the one hand, as a knight, or as a warrior, no matter what the nature of the ability is, what cannot be changed is that we must confront the enemy head-on. Getting used to injury and pain is a very beneficial thing in battle."
Listening to Morifio's explanation, Leon, who hugged Eldy tightly, wrinkled his whole face.
Morifio, who was quite nervous at first, suddenly relaxed completely after seeing him like this - no matter how powerful and terrifying he is, he is now just an ordinary child who is full of worries and worries about his companions.
"Let's make Aldie lie down comfortably and go to sleep first."
"Um……"
Morifio pointed out to Leon how to take off Eldi's equipment, which requires a lot of skill. The various buckles on the armor can easily scratch people, or pull out hair and squeeze the flesh.And how can massage make Eldy the most comfortable, his body is bruised and purple, but he has been treated, otherwise the marks will only be more terrifying.
Wait until the person is put on the bed and covered with a quilt.
Morifeo signaled Leon to come out and speak: "Companions with too much difference in strength are hard to be truly equal. Why not let him be your follower?"
"Follower, I can do whatever I want, but there is only one Eldi. For example, if I invite you to be my follower, would you like it?" Leon asked back with a look of reason.
Morifio really... has a little hesitation, not all holy knights who serve the church must serve God all their lives.The cycle knights of the God of Nature can leave the church.It's just that the two of them can't take away their equipment when they drive, they can't do things that violate the teachings of the God of Nature, and they can't throw themselves at the enemies of the God of Nature.
Leon's situation is even more special. Even if he becomes his follower, it is very likely that he can still use the resources of the Church of the God of Nature, just like Eldi.Even on the contrary, as his follower, his status within the church will rise because of this, because his connection with Leon is more intimate than Archbishop Huerta's connection with Leon.
What he cares about is not becoming an archbishop or something, what he cares about is the situation of Leon, no matter how you look at it, it seems that he is being cultivated as a god-favored person.If it goes well, he will become the spokesperson of God in the world. Even if it doesn't go well, he will become a legendary hero who can have his own epic.
——This is something Archbishop Huerta can't do, because the archbishop is a thorough believer in God, there are too many such archbishops, and they can't achieve excellence.
Archbishop Herta is impossible, and Morifio knows very well that he is even more impossible.Being able to stand by Legend's side was already something that could only happen in his dreams.
Various thoughts flashed through his mind, Morifio's face became hot, and his sharp ears drooped: "I'm a bit envious of Eldi, he has obtained the possibility that us knights have fought for all our lives."
It is "possible", there is no certain result, but it is just a possibility. I don't know how many knights can't see it in their lifetime.
"I will work hard to train him! After all, he is a man who wants to stand side by side with a legend!"
Leon: "..."
Looking at Morifio, who is so high-spirited, always feels like he dug a hole for Eldi?However, Eldy also hopes to become stronger, right?So... this should be regarded as his wish fulfilled... right?
Erdi, who was sleeping soundly, suddenly frowned, gritted his teeth and subconsciously tightened the quilt.
"I'm leaving." Morifio saluted, facing Leon, there were more inexplicable things in his gestures, "About the Second Academy's underground research institute this time, we are Do your best to investigate. In addition, the truth of the last time the spirit-eating mushroom has been basically found out. In the future, I will continue to pick up Eldi every day for training. Aldi has basically taken a look at what you want house, you can move out at any time."
"Wait, take all the maps away." Leon called to Morifeo, Chubby Bear hugged the box containing the scrolls upright, and threw it on the ground.
"Done?" Morifio was surprised.
"Drawn." How long will it take?There is no problem for Leon to directly "build" a model of equal proportions, but if he just draws a sketch... In fact, he didn't draw it, but printed it with the thinnest tentacles dipped in ink.
Once formed, no difference is guaranteed.
Morifio seemed to know the situation, looking at such a big box of maps, and then at Leon, he did not hide his surprise at all.
"By the way, the paper you brought is still short, so I used almost every paper on both sides. When using it, be careful not to smudge it."
"You can be assured."
Morifio left, and Leon didn't know how Archbishop Herta was going to deal with this matter. He only knew that the sewer matter was not developing smoothly.Because Archbishop Huerta never invited him to help, there was no movement in Dillier City.
This is not surprising, Archbishop Huerta has absolute trust in him, but others do not.Even if the God of Nature proposed this matter, it might be considered as having ulterior motives, right?Although Diller City freezes to death in winter, starves to death in summer, and has monsters everywhere, the upper echelons of Diller City probably still think they manage the city well, right?
Look, all the people are wearing beautiful clothes, picnicking in the country, dancing in the big house.ordinary people?poor?Even citizens are not human beings in the eyes of superior people.
However, Leon doesn't think that he is the savior, let alone that he has the ability to fundamentally change the world, let's talk about things that are within his duties.
As for now, let's enjoy the rare leisure time since I came to this world.
They haven't moved yet, because Eldi is too busy with training, and they leave every morning. Although they come back very early, ten days out of ten days, they are sent back by Morifio .He is not beaten every day, but various high-intensity training is indispensable.
Leon was also worried that this kind of training would hurt Eldi's body. After all, a six-year-old child trained like this, in his common sense, would damage the basics, so Morifio invited Leon to follow him Go to Eldy's training.
After a long absence on this day, Leon and Erdi walked side by side, and then he found... Eldi has grown taller again? !
