At this moment, outside the Phoenix Seed Station, not far from the opposite direction from where Fisher and Karasawa Asuka landed, the roads were artificially separated by dense bushes, because most of the elves in the Tree Continent were not there.
Those who need roads, and those who really need roads are the nobles and slaves under their governance.
Many of them are not of high rank, especially humans. They basically rely on crude carriages to travel and transport goods.
The distance of the ruts varies from country to country. For example, the ruts in the Wutong Kingdom are generally about eight feet, which is relatively wide, while the ruts in the Peach Kingdom further to the west are six feet, which is relatively narrower.
At this time, a lot of people were gathered densely around the rather crude eight-foot road. They were divided into two parts. One part had a smaller number of people, about ten people. They were all wearing heavy red and black armor. Except for the leader
One of them has a rank of fourteen, and the rest are around the thirteenth rank, and they are divided into two sub-races.
One has an animal head, with a pair of short and pointed horns on its head, a thick ring of white hair on its head, and a lot of blue scales on its face, which looks quite strange; the other one looks quite strange;
The upper body of the species is human-like, and the lower body is a thick black snake body coiled together. Most of them are female. Only the upper body has a stomach and the lower body does not.
If Lord Hiiragi is here, he must like these two sub-races very much, but at the same time, the armor and stomach they wear also shows that their identities are not simple.
That black and red armor is the [ceremonial armor] that only the ceremonial officers in the royal capital are qualified to wear. They are envoys from the royal capital who have come with a mission.
Except for these ten higher-ranking royal envoys, the rest of the dark crowd huddled behind, with low-ranking people. There were not only humans but also other demi-races, wearing tattered and dirty linen clothes.
Apparently they are all slaves.
"Which country are you from, Wutong Country?"
The fourteenth-level beast-head envoy sat on the horse and glanced lewdly at Gelsemium and Mikhail, who were surrounded by them in the middle of the road. His eyes mainly stayed on Gelsemium's body for a moment, and then withdrew his gaze with satisfaction.
, so he asked.
Gelsemium and Mikhail were teleported by Heller not far from the outskirts of the phoenix station. They and Fisher had the same idea, and they were all planning to go to the phoenix species' residence before reuniting. Unexpectedly, they bumped into each other halfway.
When these envoys from the royal capital came with a large group of slaves, they were forced to stop.
Mikhail felt the contemptuous gaze of the other party. The light of the mechanical arm in his right hand brightened for a moment. He moved closer to Gelsemium and asked in a low voice,
"What kind of sub-human race are these weird-looking people?"
Gelsemium glanced at the circle of two demi-humans wearing armored stomachs in front of her, then glanced at the dark group of slaves behind her, and replied in a low voice,
"[Kirin species] and [Black snake species], they are quite high-ranking, they are the ceremonial officers in the royal capital. They must have come down to work under some order from the royal capital. Those slaves are along the way.
It was sent by the elf monarch. Now the news in the royal capital is a mystery. I guess they all want to get something from these envoys..."
Mikhail narrowed his eyes and looked at the slender slave tied together by chains, and then said nothing. Gelsemium cleared her throat, took a step forward with a warm smile, and faced the
The envoy said,
"Indeed, may I ask the envoy what you want?"
"Currently, the king is urgently recruiting all the people on the mainland who are close to the mythical level to go to the royal capital. Your level is suitable. You have been recruited. After you pack up, prepare to set off with us... Is that human next to you your slave?"
The unicorn species took out a bundle of scrolls exuding a pale golden divine light from its stomach. The surrounding space was distorted a little, revealing the unique destiny of the World Tree.
Hearing this, a hint of thought flashed across Gelsemium's face, and Mikhail's face next to him was even colder. When his right arm was getting hotter and hotter, Gelsemium patted his shoulder and said,
The messenger came forward with his eyes open and said,
"Several envoys, this is my partner, not a slave. My name is Gelsemium and I am a doctor. I have secretly gone to the royal capital to treat your king. I guess you don't know the details. I don't know the royal capital.
What's the purpose of summoning us? Even if I want to leave, I have to inform my wife of the details first."
"We don't know the details, you will know when you go there. Don't talk nonsense, we have to tell the Phoenix Clan Leader to come with us. Master Wu and Master Tong said that their Clan Leader is only one step away from the mythical rank.
remote."
The unicorn shook his head when he heard this, and Gelsemium scanned his expression carefully. After confirming that he was not lying, the gentle smile on his face became a little thicker.
On the other hand, the black snake women next to them looked at Gelsemium's handsome and gentle face and licked their lips. Their slender snake tongues with forked ends spit out and retracted, and their voices were charming and seductive.
"Hey, you're still a doctor. It doesn't matter. Come back with us. You don't care what your wife does. The flowers in your house are not as fragrant as wild flowers. Many of our sisters in the capital are sick, but they all need your treatment.
...By the way, I forgot to ask, do you know acupuncture?"
"I'm married, girl, don't make such a joke." Sensing the other party's gaze that seemed to be serious, Gelsemium quickly straightened her face and emphasized this, as if there would be serious consequences if she didn't say this.
"Snake Xuan! That's enough!" The unicorn growled, interrupting her inappropriate teasing, causing the charming black snake next to her to pause, curl her lips, and quickly step back a few steps without saying anything.
Then, the unicorn species said to Gelsemium again, "This matter is extremely urgent and cannot be refused by you. Think carefully before making a decision. You must know that as long as I return to the capital to speak with the king, let alone you, even Wutong Er
The Lord cannot bear it."
Gelsemium no longer played around, a little thought flashed in his eyes, his smile was still warm, but a thick shadow fell on the corner of his mouth, and he deliberately mocked,
"In other words, do you want to report to your king the slaves you secretly accepted from the Elf Lord? It is against etiquette for the ceremonial officer to accept slaves privately, and your king will not spare you."
"...What do you know? These are for Duke Huaicai. How could we keep them privately?"
"Oh, I'm still a little confused. Why is it that the king, who is such a good ceremonial officer, is not doing his job for Duke Huai?"
"you wanna die?"
"you guess?"
Looking at Gelsemium's frightening smile that I don't know if it was stolen from Heller, the unicorn species shrank when it heard the words. Instantly, blood rushed to its head, and with a sudden kick of its feet, it jumped up from the horse.
, a weapon that was steady but seemed to have a huge weight in his hand suddenly unfolded and hit Gelsemium in front of him.
Looking carefully, it seemed to be an iron mace with distinct layers. It was swung by the unicorn in mid-air and headed towards Gelsemium and Mihayiner below.
"Boom!"
Gelsemium's smile did not diminish, and she suddenly stretched out her hand to grab the back of Mikhail's neck and withdrew her feet like water for a long distance, feeling the huge sound of the earth shaking and the mountains shaking, in order not to affect an ordinary human like Mikhail.
Physically, he pushed Mikhail and threw him out, while he himself stopped firmly on the dense cracks in the earth.
He probed his right hand slightly, and a golden liquid quickly extended upward, turning into a very short and very thin curved blade. At the same time, the whale tail behind him also trembled slightly, which seemed to represent something about him.
Activation of abilities.
The Curse of the Whale Race: Angry Eyes
The effect is to strengthen Gelsemium's ability to observe the details of life creation...
Well, nothing else.
As the curse started, Gelsemium's eyes suddenly became deep and dark. In his eyes, the opponent's moving body became invisible little by little, appearing in layers in Gelsemium's eyes.
First the skin and flesh, then the meridians, and finally some kind of invisible air flow...
Just as Gelsemium told Fisher before, the blessings and curses of a whale man are closely related to the personality characteristics of that whale man. Gelsemium is so obsessed with medical skills, he must have the heart to heal people, so whether it is his
Blessings and curses basically have no direct lethality.
But this is not the only disadvantage. The curse of Gelsemium has the lightest burden among all whalemen. He does not need any accompanying sea beasts to help absorb the burden of the curse. Therefore, he can freely walk on land and ocean, becoming a small creature in the ocean.
Famous traveling doctor.
He smiled and looked at the unicorn holding the mace. The golden scalpel in his hand shook strangely. When he looked carefully, he saw that the top of the scalpel shook a little bit, and then stretched out a very thin golden scalpel.
The silk thread, when the other party was about to raise the mace, the silk thread had already passed through his skin silently with the swing of Gelsemium's fingers.
"loose..."
As the silk thread trembled slightly, the unicorn's legs were clamped together, as if all the energy in his body was vented in an instant. The iron mace in his hand was so heavy that his wrists ached. Why?
Can't even lift it up.
"Well!"
Suddenly, feelings such as frequent urination, urgency and pain in urination came to his mind, making his entire lower abdomen sore, as if he had been overworked on the bed for several days and nights.
Gelsemium's eyes were slightly cold, looking at the essence in his body that was lumped together by silk threads. The threads could not directly vent them, but they could block their flow, causing the body to mistake it for a deficit and feel discomfort.
"It's a scam, Snake Xuan!"
The unicorn's face turned pale, and he covered his crotch in pain, as if he was enduring some extraordinary pain that a human being could endure. Even his voice was trembling, and he turned back to ask for help from his companions behind him.
The other unicorns and black snakes who heard this also changed their expressions, raised their weapons and attacked Gelsemium. After all, there is not much difference in rank between Gelsemium and them. If they really fight, they will be designated.
Not an opponent.
Gelsemium's face became serious, and the tiny thread pulling the leader's Qilin Kidney Water did not change. Facing the opponent's fierce attack, he shook his robe and evaded their attack with difficulty.
"Buzz!"
No, there are too many people, please let me run.
Gelsemium waved his fingers and was ready to let go, but behind him were people of the same rank as him. Even if he tried to retreat with all his strength, it was obviously too late.
"Ms. sir, why are you running?"
Beneath him, the thick, sticky and wet tail of the black snake wrapped around his waist and locked it tightly. Gelsemium instantly felt a chill running down her spine. She didn't know whether it was because of the other person's entanglement or because of her joking "husband"
.
"I'm married."
Gelsemium smiled bitterly, and the tails of the three black snakes behind him wrapped around his waist and arms respectively, making him unable to move, but he still gritted his teeth and emphasized.
"Oh, are you so virtuous? It doesn't matter, my sister who has been trained likes it too..."
"Sizzssssssssss!"
Several black snakes wrapped around the stopped Gelsemium and spat out snake bites, seeming to be preparing to lick his face. But at this critical moment, they suddenly heard some extremely dangerous sound, the black snakes
The side cheeks felt slightly warm, and they turned around to look, only to see a scorching blue beam of light coming towards their faces.
"ah!"
They screamed and backed away from Gelsemium. One of them raised a weapon to block it, but the raised weapon was easily melted in front of the blue beam. The terrifying power directly scared the black snake species and scattered them in all directions.
He ran away and looked into the distance warily.
There, Mikhail raised his right hand with a cold face. At this moment, his mechanical arm gradually spread its joints, revealing the dangerous dark blue light in it, but it was still not what Fisher had seen before.
of cardinal rays.
"Mr. Mikhail, thank you very much. I didn't expect you to be so powerful. I never noticed it before."
Gelsemium gasped and hurriedly ran to Mikhail's side. While wiping away the mucus left by the black snakes on his body with some disgust, Mikhail glanced at the man in the distance who was covering his lower abdomen.
The wet Qilin Zhong also replied,
"You're not bad either."
"I'm really bad at fighting, Mr. Mikhail, can you deal with them?"
"..."
Mikhail did not reply, but the mental threshold bar represented by the illusory subtitles in front of him continued to rise, and soon rose to about 52% with the use of the right-hand weapon.
He still had a cold face, shook his head decisively and said,
"no."
"It doesn't matter. I'm also good at escaping. The Phoenix species is stationed in front of us. I don't know if the Angels of Heller and the others have gotten there, but it's best not to lure these people there."
"Why?"
Compared with Mikhail, Gelsemium obviously knows the key to this better. He explained,
"Now that the Tree Continent is sealed off, once an outsider in the Holy Domain such as the Angel of Hell is discovered by the people of the Elf Capital, there will be no good fruit to eat. We will also be in a lot of trouble by then. We can just run in the opposite direction."
"Um."
Miha Yin'er nodded, agreeing with Gelsemium's statement, and then glanced at the unicorn in the distance who was holding his lower abdomen. Looking at his hateful eyes, Miha Yin'er knew that the other party was not
I would let them both go easily.
The creatures in this world are very powerful. Even the creatures in rank 134 are far beyond the limits of the weapons designed by Siberian Wind Company. It makes people wonder whether the creatures in this world are carbon-based creatures. What's more,
Don't talk about mythical creatures like Michael.
Mikhail rubbed the eye in his arms, as if he was thinking about whether to insert the thing into his empty eye socket.
"Here you go, Mr. Mikhail!"
But thinking at this moment seemed redundant. In the next second, the expression of Gelsemium next to him suddenly changed, as if he had realized something, but Mikhail next to him was more than a beat slower in reaction.
The unicorn-like boy who was completely irritated shrank suddenly, raised the iron mace sideways, and used extreme force to twist his figure that turned into an afterimage, and in an instant he came to Gelsemium and Mikhail.
in front of you.
It was too late to dodge, Gelsemium's face darkened, as if it was about to be hit by the mace on the spot.
At this moment, a fallen leaf spun from the back and top of the unicorn and came through the wind. He thought it was some kind of hidden weapon, and the movement of raising the mace suddenly stopped, but he had no time to feel it.
The concealed weapon drifted into his clothes...
Um?
With the wind?
The unicorn was stunned for a moment, then touched his stomach behind his back, but only touched a leaf in the gap.
leaf?
"Fisher?! You're here!"
The face of Gelsemium in front of him was filled with joy, and he watched several phoenix species flying towards this direction with their huge wings spread out in the sky. His companion Fisher was also on the shoulder of one of the phoenixes.
But before the joy could last a second, a scene happened that shocked everyone present.
Perhaps even Nekolia was wondering why that human threw a leaf into the other person's clothes. Was it just to attract attention?
Soon, she thought wrong.
Next to her, Fisher snapped his fingers with a cold face in mid-air, and as a strange wave that no one present had ever seen spread, a sudden burst of energy erupted from the unicorn who was stunned in place.
Dozens of strong gusts of wind blew out, causing all of his clothes, armor, stomach, and underwear to burst open, revealing his plush and soft belly and paws.
The world's repercussions caused by magic that was frequently used after ten thousand years seemed so terrifying at this moment. That night, due to the violent fluctuations in the rules of death, the magic carved by Asuka Karasawa was lost in it, and now it is in full view of everyone.
Underneath, everyone felt that the rules were induced and distorted by the echoes of the world.
"Sorcery! Sorcery! This is sorcery!"
The naked unicorn species was so frightened by the snap of Fisher's fingers in the distance that he squatted on the spot with his head in his hands. The long white tail like a deer's tail behind him also swept uneasily on the ground.
He screamed and looked back at the black snakes behind him, but he didn't expect that they also backed away and didn't dare to step forward.
Nekolia, who was floating in mid-air, also glanced at Fisher in surprise, making him feel a little uncomfortable.
No, isn't this just a low-level magic?
The corresponding level hasn't even reached the extraordinary level yet, why are you so scared?
Fisher just didn't know that most of the creatures in the Tree Continent were extremely sensitive to fate due to the influence of the World Tree, and apart from the elves, the Phoenix species were the best among them.
From this, they all vaguely felt the horror of the operating principle of magic, and they were all horrified to use the power of the spiritual world that was not watched by the gods to stir up the reverberations of the world to change the rules.
"Don't be stunned. It's best if they don't move. Let's go down first and then talk."
"...Um."
Nekolia's cold face that was shattered by uncertainty gradually recovered. As the magic aura subsided little by little, she gradually calmed down and responded like this.
The scene of Fisher being carried by the phoenix as he descended gradually went away, and at the same time he appeared on the surface of an extremely deep water-covered abyss somewhere in an extremely distant continent in the middle of the night.
An unclear figure stood by the pool. She looked at the picture of Fisher landing projected in the abyss. After seeing that he and a group of non-mythical beings were the only ones in the picture, then
The figure showed a slight smile,
"Oh, l'ange qui déra e (French: the troublesome angel is finally gone)..."
As the figure slowly stretched out its hand towards the abyss where Fisher's figure was projected, under the abyss, a certain shining golden light of destiny became more intense, and the whole earth trembled slightly.
Driven by the light of destiny, the ever-changing rules of death changed subjectively for the first time, rushing out like a flood of ferocious beasts towards the unlucky guy being chased by death.
Fisher!
Soon, following her remote movements, the ground of the tree continent in the distance suddenly shook violently. Amidst the earthquakes and mountains shaking like a natural disaster, the rules of death changed again, but the figure didn't care at all, just clinging to it.
Staring at Fisher's figure in the abyss.
After a second or two, she whispered to someone on the other side in a pleading voice,
"Et le tuer (Kill him)..."
After a moment of pause, a male voice suddenly came from over there.
