Chapter 498 From now on, the whistleblower will be the enemy I hunt.
Xiaozhi didn't know what the Soul Torturer was, but he clearly and keenly perceived Menis' momentary loss of composure, surprise, confusion, and a hint of faint fear.
The exposure of these complex emotions lasted only a moment, and then Scarab Menes regained his composure.
"I almost forgot, you don't have a godhead, so you can't directly detect my situation."
Harrow with three heads slowly walked out of the pit.
The undead warriors behind him swarmed up, tied up the dying Kebli, stuffed him into a special sarcophagus, and carried him away.
Harrow looked at Menes with six pale eyes, and said in a proud and restrained tone: "Yes, I am a soul torturer. It is my bounden duty to interrogate and examine the dead. I was born to be above the dead. I
I am the attendant of the River of Death, and I am the judge and supervisor of the dead. The closer I am to the River Styx, the more I can develop my power."
"I know all death and death gods in the world. Anubis in Egyptian mythology once deduced the "Heart Weighing Ceremony" with me on the River Styx. Thanatos in ancient Greek mythology once asked me to investigate Sisyphus, and the sea in Nordic mythology.
La is always melancholy and depressed and needs my comfort."
"I talked about the yin and yang of day and night with the Yanhuang Lord Taishan, exchanged death secrets with the Celtic Morrigan, and I severely punished Bharata Yama riding a buffalo through the Styx."
"..."
Scarab Menes seemed to realize something.
It was silent for a long time: "Shouldn't you stay in the underworld? Why did you leave there? No... this is not your true body. Your body is still in the River Styx?"
"For a promise."
Harrow said: "Then, clean up the battlefield, Master of Dog City. I need to confirm that Kebuli has been completely sealed. People will not remember the great achievements a person has completed over a long period of time, but as long as there is a little mistake, then
It will become a widely publicized case of malfeasance, and I know that best."
Only then did Menis come back to his senses and began to dispatch his undead warriors to search for the awakened gods and monsters. The black jackals also began to run quickly.
The wise insect walked carefully to the three-headed dog: "Mr. Harrow, you are really strong."
"I said, I will solve them."
Harrow preached lightly.
For the dead, even fallen powerful gods have no power to fight back in front of it.
Harrow turned his head and said, "I'm a little surprised. Are curses generally accepted by the gods in all worlds now?"
"not like this."
Xiaozhi quickly explained: "Lord Yao has tolerance, generosity and patience that are extremely rare among gods, and has given me a lot of trust. The Dog City itself has a special structure, so the Scarab can be here."
"That's right. In my impression, the gods and the curse clan still hunt each other all year round."
A flash of red light flashed in Haruo's white eyes: "You are lucky, Yao is a very special and powerful sailor... I have received a lot of care from him. You do your job well, and you don't have to worry about your future. Really
The strong ones are not defined or bound. Just like in the pantheon of gods, there is never the name of the one who set sail."
"Please rest assured that I am completely devoted to Lord Yao." Zhichong immediately expressed his position: "I will definitely work hard to complete the tasks given by Lord Yao."
"That's good."
The three-headed dog raised its head and looked into the distance: "I have to go see that resentful criminal again. I always feel a bit suspicious."
…
While Harrow was chewing and examining the corpse of the basilisk, the wise insect asked the Three Saints to wait for instructions, and he went all the way to the side of the Scarab Menis.
The wise insect rubbed its paws and whispered: "Your Majesty Menis, it seems that the biggest problem has been solved."
The tall mummy slowly turned its head.
It raised its left hand and spread its five fingers on the black beetle shell covering its face. The palm wrapped in the shroud was suddenly surrounded by blazing flames.
It's just that this flame is blazing but not fierce, but contains a kind of sacred and gentle vast power.
Menis opened his hand, and the fire of faith poured in, and was inhaled by Xiaozhi.
It immediately confirmed that it was indeed the fire of faith of 60 million people.
The wise insect breathed a sigh of relief.
Defeat Kebuli and the Sunship and get the final payment.
All the main tasks this time have been completed, and I can finally go back and submit my work.
Then Zhichong smiled and proactively asked: "This cooperation is smoother than expected. Is there anything we can help with?"
I took the fire of faith from others and helped as much as I could.
Intelligent insects think very clearly.
In the future, the Yao people will continue to trade with Iucheng, so maintaining relations is necessary.
"No need. Kebuli has been sealed in another tomb that is more stable and closed. Even if the solar ship appears again, it cannot be awakened."
Scarab Menes turned to ask: "That soul torturer belongs to the Yao God camp?"
"I don't know about this. I'm just an errand boy. How do I know about Lord Yao Shen?"
Xiaozhi showed a flattering smile: "Speaking of which, I would also like to ask you. You are a senior of the Cursed Clan and are well-informed. What does the Soul Torturer represent? How is it different from Cerberus?"
Faced with the intellectual insect's anti-customer attitude, Menis also laughed and said, "It seems you really don't understand."
"Yes, most of the Curses know very little about this world. We are the real outsiders here, and the scope of our activities is quite limited. If I hadn't cooperated with Kebuli for many years, I would probably have
You’re almost there.”
"The ancestor Cerberus was a strange object that was born along with the River Styx. It had fifty heads, each of which represented a consciousness and personality. The coexistence of fifty consciousnesses led to increasingly serious noises and conflicts between each other.
"
"Then one day the ancestor Cerberus couldn't bear the trouble, so he split himself into fifty separate individuals. These completely different individuals were the first generation of the Cerberus family. After they were separated, they were still the least
Three heads and corresponding personalities were derived from it, and it was later also called the three-headed dog of hell."
"The first generation of Cerberus possesses the ability of [Soul Torturer], which can inherently suppress the dead because their power has not yet separated from the River Styx."
"There are fifty Cerberas in total. Every time one is reduced, a new Cerberus will be born from the River Styx. Later, it is said that when the number increases, some of them will be eliminated. Only starting from the second generation, Cerberus
This special ability is lost."
The intellectual insect was a little stunned: "Mr. Harrow is the first generation of Cerberus?"
"good."
Scarab Menes said softly: "The first generation is not the strongest, or to put it bluntly, the comprehensive combat power is far inferior to that of Cerberus that was born later. Each generation is stronger than the last generation. This is the long-term trend of evolution to adapt to the environment.
.But the first generation exists as part of the organs of the ancestor Cerberus, and the later generations can no longer have the characteristic of [Soul Torturer]."
"Because the ancestor Cerberus and the first generation, their bodies and consciousness are still deeply connected to death - or to the River Styx."
The wise insect suddenly realized.
No wonder it felt that Haro was clearly around before, but it seemed to be just an empty shell. Its body opened in a way that Xiaozhi could not understand, and it had some connection with the death rules of Dog City.
The soul torturer is the real messenger of Styx.
"Thanks for the advice."
"It's just a small matter. We will have more cooperation in the future. I hope you can give me a few words about Yao Shen."
The intellectual insect could feel that Harrow's arrival had brought some great pressure and deterrence to the scarab. Think about it, this is a city of the dead and a city of tombs, and Harrow is the uncrowned king here. As long as it is willing, Dog City
No one can stop it.
Scarab put aside its reserve and expressed direct overtures for the first time.
"sure."
The wise insect also agreed wholeheartedly.
Both parties are currently in the honeymoon period of cooperation, so this is easy to say.
The two curse clansmen were talking when Harrow suddenly came over.
"I knew something was wrong... There was something wrong with that resentful criminal. There was a bone whistle in its body. It looked like a tooth. It almost fooled me."
Harrow spit out a long curved fang.
There are three small yellow-brown holes on the fangs, and there is also a small hole on the tip of the tooth. If you don't look carefully, you will just think it is a damaged tooth.
Scarab Menes raised his hand, and the snake fangs flew in front of it.
After looking at it carefully for a long time, it said in a low tone: "It's the evil bone whistle of the whistleblower. It seems that what happened to the solar ship was not an accident, but a long-planned plan."
Menes raised the flail staff in his hand, and a heavy sense of oppression emanated from his body. The wise insect next to him felt that it became difficult to breathe, as if the whole world suddenly became several times heavier.
There were waves of dull and rhythmic sounds in the air, like some kind of distant thunder, or like some kind of wave from outside that was constantly impacting.
"Since there are gods reaching out here, it's time for Inujo to respond."
The carapace on the scarab's face slowly opened, revealing complex golden lines inside, like some kind of ancient totem or curse seal.
The spell cast a golden light, outlining a lifelike black jackal mark in the sky.
The scarab opened its arms and shouted in a solemn and solemn voice: "In the name of the great Lord Anubis, the City of Dogs, makes a request to our most solid and brave brother city-state, the City of Wolf."
"Dear pioneer of the road, the invincible Lord Upuot, the dormant Dog City has been conspired and coveted by the enemy. I request you with the ancient covenant to use your sharp arrows that are superior to the gods to invincibly destroy them.
The pack of wolves, leading the dead to the path of death, points towards the enemy!"
It raised its fangs in its hands.
"The enemy of Dog City is the creator of this bone whistle, the god [Whistleblower]."
The bone whistle flew into the air and merged into the black wolf head seal on the sky.
It didn't take long.
A low and hoarse voice echoed over the city.
"The ancient covenant still stands."
"From now on, the whistleblower will be the enemy I hunt."
…
Witnessing everything, the wise insect was in a state of excitement.
Inujo has indeed hidden its strength.
Looking at this posture, the Scarab is going to kill the whistler!
