Chapter 2769 2770, Inheriting the Underground World (Twenty)
——???——
Like honey.
"O cursed one, I will stay by your side until all hope is gone,"
After Shanalot, the green-robed pilgrim, tried to become Sherlock's "witch" but was stopped by Melina, she did not leave because of this, but continued to speak in her weird way of speaking:
"Please accept this and may it help you on your journey."
As she spoke, she took out a small green bottle filled with golden liquid from her pocket and handed it to Sherlock.
Isn't that an "element bottle"?
Back then, no, in the future, when I was in the "junction", as "Stephen Strange" who was physically weak and could "DEAD" casually, this thing saved his hundreds and thousands of lives.
The little girl Melina, who had been watching her warily, grabbed the bottle, looked at it over and over for a while, and then drank it all. "[The dark green glass bottle is the treasure of the immortal." , accumulate elements by the campfire, and you can restore your blood volume by drinking it]" She looked at the empty bottle and said: "[Since ancient times, the undead have always shuttled between campfires, and the element bottle
I have been traveling with him.】"
Yes, even the "description" is the same.
"The 'Mage Supreme' doesn't need this." Melina declared, then put the bottle away.
So this is where the element bottle that she will give to herself in the future comes from? "Please go to see the king, to see King Pankrad," Shanalot didn't take it seriously, or maybe she knew that the element bottle had been taken care of. Handed over: "He created the prosperous Dolanguleg and mastered the soul.
Essentially, if your soul is not strong enough, you will not be able to see him." In other words, you need to fight monsters and upgrade, but now that you are the main body, there is no room for upgrading. Moreover, it is no exaggeration to say that even if Without Melina's help, I would be invincible in this world
.
However, these tasks may be the prelude to "meeting the king". If they are not defeated, the kings will not show up?
"You said that in order to make the soul stronger, it is necessary to hunt the 'Four Giants'?" Sherlock asked: "What are they? Where can they be found?" "They are, respectively, [Molten] from the Kingdom of Molten Iron. Iron Demon - Patchwick], [King of Corruption - Looseb] from the Kingdom of the Holy Wall, [Forgotten Sinner - Rasuvios] from the Kingdom of the White King, and [Dolan Guleg's]
Spider Duke - Anub'Rekhan]," Shanalot said eloquently: "You must defeat them and obtain their souls before you can meet the king and save this land from the curse."
Mere names are meaningless. Can anyone know what kind of enemy they are just by using these names?
"What she said..." Sherlock looked at Melina.
"She's right," Melina replied: "Unless we defeat them, the four royal cities will not open." But we can fly... No, forget it, this is Melina's "world of origin", her " "Mirror Body" has not successfully saved the world. For the time being, let's follow the original trajectory and beat all the four giants and four kings.
Say it again. Although I did meet "Witch Melina" and "Junction" in the "future", which proves that this world still exists, the process is unknown, especially when she still appears in a "soul" state. You know, junction
The currency used to defeat monsters and upgrade is "runes" instead of "souls", and even those "Fragment Kings" drop only "memories".
He should, no, must find a way to save the world of "Behem" and at the same time establish a connection with the "Borderland" so as to connect the past and the future without causing Melina to be wronged.
That is, "Melina the Witch" must be an incarnation of Melina herself for some reason, just like "Black Lantern Clee", and cannot be a remnant soul left after suffering a severe injury.
But if you think about it carefully, little Melina is already in a state of "omniscience and omnipotence" at this time, and coupled with her near-invincibility, there is absolutely no way that anything in this world can threaten her. At worst, she can just turn the table over and restart.
Unless... "The curse is part of the essence of life, and no one can get rid of it," Shanalot said again: "So there is only one choice left, to find a well-deserved king. The king will bear it, the king will allow it, and the king will bear the whole world.
.”
I see.
Since the "Abyss" has always been eager to extinguish the "Fire", as long as a king is born and a country rises, there will be an "immortal curse" and other similar disasters. Therefore, a soul is powerful enough to destroy the "Four Giants" The person who has become the king is qualified to become a king, and then challenge the four fallen kings one by one, inherit their positions, eliminate all disasters, and make the world
The world continues forever.
Next, the abyss will definitely send a "princess". Judging from the fact that none of the supposedly great kings refused, this kind of bewitchment may have some kind of "law of cause and effect", and as long as the king of Behem is bound to fall prey to it.
So, what if the person who ascends the throne is a queen? Will the abyss send a "male princess" to seize power? Isn't that a bit outrageous? Moreover, Sherlock can shamelessly say that after saving so many worlds together - - More than 2.1 billion - From now on, Melina will never be interested in any man other than him. Never will Melina the "Witch" in the future.
"The persistence towards the "Supreme Master" is evident.
——What’s wrong, the princess is actually me.
——Male princess, hehe~
——Shut up, everyone!
Well... now, the reason why Miss "Ereshkigal" who saved countless worlds is unknown in the real dimension has been found: After successfully saving hundreds of millions of worlds, although she still cannot save her "origin" World", but found a way that was not a solution - ascending to the throne and suppressing the influence of the "abyss" or "subspace" with oneself
, from the past, to the future, and to eternity. And her way of adjusting to this world is to separate a ray of soul as an incarnation to penetrate reality and interfere with certain things to a limited extent. Success is good, and failure is okay. For her, keeping the "fire" from being
The "abyss" swallowing is the first priority.
Her behavior is admirable, but it treats the symptoms rather than the root cause. Obviously, I cannot copy her approach.
When "Melina the Witch" found her and hoped to become the "Supreme Mage", it was because the "Holy Grail" as the "Deathly Hallows" was broken. In other words, the "Supreme Mage" and the "Holy Grail" were equal replacements. of.
In this way, the answer is obvious - after eliminating the fallen kings of the four countries, the "Holy Grail" can be used as the king's replacement. Although it is also a temporary solution, it does not require Melina to make any sacrifices. Judging from the scenes seen in "Batman's" memory and "Melina the Witch"'s explanation of the history of the junction, the Holy Grail finally exploded after fulfilling its duties as king for a long enough time, and the overflowing black mud ignited.
A raging fire burned "Behem" to death, and this was the "epilepsy incident".
As for the next stage, the reason why the "Supreme Mage" clearly appeared, but the entire world was buried underground in the "Junction Land" and became an unknown "underground world"——
Sherlock raised his head and looked at the countless "sand worlds" stuck to the "sky"... The sky must have collapsed.
