After advancing towards the forest for a while, Shen Qi killed many little monsters with scarlet mist.
Facing these little monsters, Shen Qi didn't hesitate at all. He picked up a round shield and a big sword and killed these little monsters like he was chopping melons and vegetables.
Then he gained some energy to improve himself, which seemed to be upgrading him.
Shen Qi felt that after absorbing the energy, all aspects of his body had been improved, and even the wounds he had sustained were healed in one breath.
"Is this an upgrade?"
Putting away her round shield and big sword, Shen Qi tried to release the magical flames.
As a result, the magical flame instantly burned a tree to slag, and its power increased three times as much as before, which meant that he had at least upgraded three levels.
Shen Qi did not move forward. At this time, he felt a little lost and confused.
Although he knew that his current mission should be to go deep into the forest and eliminate the entrenched demon, he was just confused. He was confused about what he had forgotten.
He shouldn't be the young brave here. He has important things to do here.
But why couldn't he remember it?
Looking up at the forest shrouded in scarlet mist, he always felt that the world in front of him was a bit false, as if it was a deliberately created scene. There was a person hiding somewhere silently watching his activities, and taking this as his own. happy.
He is like a puppet whose actions and life have been edited, and all actions are driven by a certain black hand.
Although I know that I should continue walking now and destroy that demon.
But he doesn't plan to do that now, maybe because of his own caution or a little bit of rebellion.
"No matter who you are, I know you are watching me, but I will not act as you want."
As expected, the people behind the scenes couldn't bear to see his behavior. How could the play continue if the actors stopped acting?
A faceless face appeared in the sky, as if the face was pressed up from outside the sky, pressing on Shen Qi like a black cloud pressing down on a city.
Shen Qi looked up at the giant faceless face in the sky, holding a big sword and a round shield in both hands with a solemn expression, as if he were a human monk standing between heaven and earth, facing the pressure from God.
The two looked at each other silently, and the invisible pressure pressed on Shen Qi instantly, as if it was going to force him to kneel down. The grass beneath him was crushed, and the surrounding trees were pressed down into half. rice.
Boom, boom, boom...
The bones in Shen Qi's body were shattering, but he didn't feel any pain.
As if everything in front of him was an illusion, he raised the big sword and slashed it in front of him. Miraculously, he cut the space. The moment the crack in the space appeared, everything around him turned into pixel blocks and gradually Shattered.
Shen Qi did not relax, but became vigilant, because after the scene in front of him collapsed, he found himself in another scene, a cave.
Looking at the appearance of the cave, he narrowed his eyes.
He has been to this place before.
When he was helping the blacksmith dig or helping the hunter find his son, he came to the mine tunnel.
Just as he was looking around, a man in black robe appeared in the mine tunnel and stood face to face with him.
"Who are you?"
Shen Qi raised his weapon in defense and said, he didn't think the sudden appearance of the person would have any purpose, especially under the current circumstances.
The man in black robe did not play riddles or show a strange smile, he just lifted his hood.
When seeing that somewhat familiar face, Shen Qi shouted: "Halak?"
But after shouting, he became confused again. Who is Halak? Why does he know this name?
"you know me?"
The man in black robe opposite is actually the Scarlet King Harak, but now he does not look like the Scarlet King before, but instead looks like...a human king.
Wearing a crown on his head, an exquisite beard, and sharp eyes, he looks like a domineering president in a TV series.
"I......"
"Hmm, I don't know him."
Shen Qi shook his head. He didn't know why he knew the other party's name, but the name of 'devil' above the other party's head made him pick up the weapon.
"You are what the village calls a devil."
It was not a questioning tone, which meant that he was actually sure in his heart.
"I don't know who the devil you are talking about is, but I am indeed the only one here." Black-robed Harak put his hands on his lower abdomen and replied very politely.
"Did you do anything in the forest just now?" Shen Qi said again.
The black-robed Halak nodded, it was indeed his doing.
"The moment you stepped into the forest, I spotted you."
Shen Qi frowned. If he was discovered the moment he stepped into the forest, did it mean that he was in the opponent's illusion from the beginning?
But what about the scarlet tiger, the little monsters encountered later, and the feeling of upgrading?
At this time, the black-robed Harak explained: "Those are small exercises set for you. If you want to meet the throne, you need to go through the experience of the throne."
Shen Qi nodded after hearing this, but did not agree with this approach.
"I'm here to destroy you."
Shen Qi raised his big sword and pointed it at the black-robed Halak.
"I know." Black-robed Harak said calmly.
Both of them suddenly fell silent.
"Actually, I didn't do anything to them." Longjiu black-robed Halak said.
Shen Qi frowned and said, "That has nothing to do with me. I'm just here to destroy you, that's all."
"Hahaha!"
Black-robed Harak covered his face and smiled. He was a little angry. He was angry about why Shen Qi, like those in the village, treated him as a scourge, even though he had done nothing.
"Then what's the difference between you and them!"
"Just because you are afraid of my existence, you want to destroy me. This is simply ridiculous."
"Don't I have the right to exist?"
Black-robed Halak shouted at Shen Qi.
Then he continued to be silent.
He opened his hands as if welcoming the dawn, welcoming the coming of death.
"Come on, kill me!"
"If even existence can be hated and disgusted by others, then I will die, come and kill me!"
"Isn't this what you want to do!"
Listening to the accusation from the black-robed Halak, Shen Qi did not take action, but put away his weapon. Since the other party was unwilling to fight, there was no need for him to fight.
A one-sided battle is called massacre.
Shen Qi considers himself not a murderous person.
"Before that, I have a question to ask you."
Black-robed Harak looked at Shen Qi blankly, "Why don't you kill me? Isn't this the purpose of your coming here?"
After saying that, Harak in the black robe was silent for a while, then raised his head and said, "What do you want to ask?"
"What the hell are you..."
Shen Qi slowly asked the question.
The black-robed Harak fell into deep thought. What exactly is he? He has been confused about this question for a long time...
