On the edge of the city are two high mountains. The quiet area above has become a tryst spot for many young lovers. Today, it is used by Bai Yu as a secret special training base.
As the coach, Wen Jing and Qi Zui, who came to observe, stayed aside.
Bai Yu stood on the grass and got ready.
"What should we do first?" Bai Yu looked a little confused at Wen Jing, who was sitting on the stone behind him, writing something down quickly, "Do you want to use spiritual energy?" "No, maybe you are better than me in using spiritual energy.
Even more powerful." Wen Jing also thought about it. Judging from the previous battles with Zhuge Qing, Bai Yu's problem is that he can only use a large amount of spiritual energy, but cannot flexibly use his essential power. "In my opinion,
, you need to have some in-depth communication with Taoxie." "Is this what you did with Shayin?" Bai Yu seemed a little hesitant, as if he had thought of something.
"Yes, the source of our strength is the Seven Deadly Sins. The most basic thing is to reach a consensus with them to fight together. This will make it easier to bring out their power. After that, we need to complete the integration through some actual combat." Wen Jing
She almost completed her training in the Earl's barrier. Although the risk was reduced to a minimum, she almost died several times. There is no shortcut to gaining power.
"I understand, I'll just... give it a try." Closing his eyes, Bai Yu felt that his body was becoming lighter, and his consciousness began to fall into nothingness. Then, when he opened his eyes,
All he saw was pure darkness.
Directly in front, stands a cage, tall and gloomy.
The wriggling black shadow inside is the source of his power.
"It's been really frequent lately, how many times have you come to see me." He half-opened his left eye, and closed his right eye heavily. Taotie's lazy tone made Bai Yu, who was outside the cage, silent and didn't know how to speak, "You don't know how.
Do you think we have a good relationship?" "How is it possible... I hate you the most, it's all because of you that makes my life a mess, and besides..." "In addition, I carry your hatred, right?
?" The frank rhetorical question made Bai Yu consider how to answer. He was here to communicate and establish relationships. He suppressed the anger in his heart, but before he could speak, Tao Hu continued, "Since you hate and hate me so much,
Why did you come to see me?" "As for what you said last time, the idea that you were the culprit for the earthquake ten years ago, after thinking about it carefully, your answer was a bit vague, and there were some things you didn't answer me specifically.
"Bai Yu did have similar doubts. There was still a lack of key things that could connect the earthquake and the gluttony together.
"Haha... Hahaha, in order to please me, can you even deliberately deceive yourself? You put on a forgiving and tolerant expression, you are planning to get closer and borrow my power, is this really okay? Forced
Disguise yourself with that hypocritical appearance, and you will be ruined in the end." There was a rude sneer in the cage, and Bai Yu's gluttonous reaction made Bai Yu's face turn blue, "I was right, right?
Don't pretend to be mature as a young brat, hate is hate, disgust is disgust, it's impossible for a mere ordinary person to resist so many things." He shook his body, sat up slowly, and looked through the cage.
He admired the changes in Bai Yu's expression.
"But you are right about one thing. I didn't tell you everything about the earthquake." Probably realizing that Bai Yu was almost losing control of his anger, Tao Hu changed the topic to the part that interested him most.
Sure enough, Bai Yu's expression instantly became serious and serious, "Have you ever heard of the Soul Night Festival?" This is a not-so-unfamiliar term. He has heard it several times from Xingyao Club and the God of Death. Bai Yu asked
Luo Minmin was deliberately avoided by the other party, "I heard about it, but no one explained it." "It is a festival that does not have a fixed time. The last Soul Night Festival was held ten years ago, and the location was you.
The reason why the Soul Night Festival is held in the seaside area where I live can be traced back to a phenomenon." Tao Hu recalled the origin of the ancient festival. This custom even existed earlier than he was born. "The underworld and human beings are the same.
They belong to two worlds. So, if one day the underworld and the human world are connected and overlap each other, what do you think will happen?" "Destruction?" Bai Yu almost blurted out as he could not imagine the scene of death running all over the streets.
"Yes, it is destruction! From the moment the underworld and the human world overlap, human inspiration will become extremely sharp, and they can clearly see disaster and death. Then, destruction and killing, the two worlds will be destroyed together. This
We call this phenomenon the Devouring World. The invisible force swallows up the isolated areas of the two worlds and fuses them. It is a phenomenon that cannot be eliminated. Therefore, the Great Death, the leader of the underworld in the past, will hold the Soul Night Festival and use his own life to
To fight against the Devouring World and maintain a balance between the human world and the underworld. According to convention, there will be a Devouring World almost every few hundred years, and the Great Death will be replaced at this interval. After all, the so-called Great Death is much worse than the ordinary Death.
They are just sacrifices prepared for the Soul Night Sacrifice." But Tao Hu has no sympathy or pity for the so-called sacrifices. In its view, the survival of the world has nothing to do with it.
"It sounds like the God of Death is maintaining the existence of the world." Bai Yu seemed to understand the reason why Luo Minmin wanted to hide it. This was a matter involving the secrets of the God of Death. Then he thought of what happened ten years ago.
Thing, "Earthquake is the Devouring World?" "Hahaha, how is it possible? The Devouring World is not a child's natural disaster. Ten years ago, for some reason, I attacked the Great Death God who was performing the Soul Night Festival. Although the Devouring World
was stopped, but the Soul Night Festival was incomplete. Therefore, in the past few years, there may be another world-devouring event. The Great Death is not dead anyway, so it will be enough to hold it again. The reason for the earthquake is due to the fluctuation of power.
Caused by it, understand? After all, the earthquake was caused by me." Then, there was a dead silence. After a long time, Bai Yu stared at Tao Xi with serious eyes, "What are some of the reasons you mentioned?" "It's not that.
What a great thing, forget it, I'm going to sleep... As for you wanting to use my power, I think the aura I lent you is enough. For other things, it's better not to think too much. You hate it from the bottom of my heart.
How can you be in perfect sync with me when you're looking at me? Don't force yourself. It's better to face your true thoughts frankly." As a monster living in Bai Yu's heart, the master's thoughts are of course clear, "Oh, by the way.
, I forgot to tell you that you must learn to give up. Regarding the matter of Liuli River and Li Qinghe, you act so indifferent in front of outsiders, as if everything is free and easy, but that may not be what you think deep down. Young people must think openly.
Ah." "Shut up!" The embarrassment of having his mind revealed made Bai Yu shout angrily, and then his consciousness began to fade away...
Seeing Bai Yu standing motionless, Wen Jing and Qisui sat side by side.
"Luo Minmin didn't come. As a messenger sent by the underworld to monitor Bai Yu, he is really willful." Wen Jing rarely talked to Qi Zui. The latter seemed to have noticed the true intention of this gloomy girl, and calmly said
Nodding.
"Speaking of which, what is your position? Why are you standing on Bai Yu's side to protect him?" Wen Jing got to the point.
"Isn't it enough for you to just observe Bai Yu? Why are you curious about me?" Qi Zui was still holding a piece of pineapple bread in his hand, chewing on it, and was unfazed by the observation eyes hidden behind the thick glasses.
move.
"I need to filter out the uneasy factors around Bai Yu." Wen Jing stopped writing, like a quiet and dormant cub, "It's better to eliminate those with bad intentions early." "I don't need to explain anything to you.
, this is a secret belonging to women." After swallowing the whole bread, Qi Zui's eyes returned to Bai Yu, who seemed to have come back from the deepest consciousness, "Go back." Unexpectedly, Bai Yu said this.
In one sentence, he sounded a bit frustrated, "I can't seem to sense Tao Xi, so I can only think of other ways to trouble you." With a helpless smile, Bai Yu said and headed down the mountain.
As they walked away, Wen Jing and Qisui both realized what Bai Yu was covering up with lies, but they both tacitly agreed not to ask.
On the only way down the mountain, you will pass by a small gray church. Although it is remote, many people come here to pray.
Bai Yu had heard about it several times, but had never been in it, so he couldn't help but stop there and take a few more looks.
"Are you here to pray? Or are you here to confess in the confession room?" A sweet child's voice came from at their feet. Bai Yu, Qi Zui and Wen Jing all lowered their heads together and found a man dressed in black standing in front of the three of them.
A gothic lolita, about six or seven years old, with fluffy golden curly hair hanging on her shoulders, and a delicate appearance like a doll.
"Well, we're just passing by, kid." Bai Yu explained with a smile while waving his hands.
"But you look very worried. If you want to talk, you can come to our family church, big brother." After that, the little girl rushed to the church and disappeared behind the door. "Are you worried?" Bai Yu asked.
If you touch your face, it won't be so easy for others to see, right? "Bai Yu, you..." Before Qi Zui could ask, he was interrupted by the other party, "By the way, why is that guy Luo Minmin so different today?"
Get up, are you going for a run?" Bai Yu changed the subject, not wanting this question to be deepened.
At the same time, the female Death God mentioned by the three people is indeed running.
Wearing convenient sportswear, Luo Minmin was jogging along the river today. She couldn't get rid of the abnormal feeling towards Bai Yu in her heart, so she could only solve it through exercise, but as far as the God of Death was concerned, this approach was not very effective.
Many functions.
On the slope of the river at the corner, a yellow and white cordon had been set up. Many police officers could be seen coming in and out. Luo Minmin frowned. She was not very interested in human affairs and continued without stopping.
Start jogging.
The murdered body of a woman was found on the slope of the river bank.
It was about last night.
Policemen wearing white gloves surrounded the scene of the crime, all with ugly faces.
"This is the third issue this month. The murderous maniac... you can call him that. If it is publicized, I don't know how much panic it will cause." "The method is the same, slit the throat with a sharp weapon and bleed to death.
, but this... seems to be missing his left hand." "The first victim is missing his right hand, and the second is missing his left foot. What does that madman want to do?" "Did he watch too many movies about perverted murderers?
?" While everyone was talking, a middle-aged policeman with gray hair squatted on the lawn by the river. There were signs of being squeezed on it. He tried to restore the scene in his mind, "This beast, is he?
Do you treat killing as a game?" Cursing, the middle-aged policeman stood up. The clues he currently has are still too few. The locations chosen by the other party are remote areas without surveillance, and their methods are sophisticated.
.
"Lao Luo, did you see anything?" A nearby policeman who looked like a superior came closer and asked in a low voice, "No, I can only say that he is very dangerous. After killing people, he seemed to stay by the river for a long time. His mood
Very calm, such a person no longer regards killing as a sin." Clenching his fingers, the policeman known as Lao Luo bit his lips, "I will never forgive this bastard, I must arrest him
Get rid of it!" At the last moment, his expression was ferocious and scary.
Hades.
Claude, the guardian of Hades, stood in the command room with an indifferent expression, because of an out-of-control disaster.
"Lord Claude, we found it." A god of death who was looking at the rotating screen shouted excitedly, "This is the guy who has continuously attacked the god of death and brought disaster to mankind in more than 40 cities in ten countries.
, LV2 level, strange, how did it do it? Not only did it successfully avoid the pursuit of many executors, but it also ate several of them with its backhand." "It is a cunning beast." Claude was very concerned about such a small beast.
The thing is not of much interest. It is only because its long-term rampage has aroused the dissatisfaction of the gods of death that it started to pay attention. "The disaster of LV2 will make us disgraced, but the name of the Hades Army will be shamed."
Lauder's words made many Death Gods lower their heads in shame. It was also because of everyone's contempt that the disaster was allowed to go unpunished for so long.
"According to the tracking of the remains of the spirit child, the place where it is currently staying is...oh, it is the city where the Taoze host is located. Send out sergeants to attack it to save trouble." But this aspect is not the responsibility of Claude, most of it is
The task of conquering the disaster will be entrusted to the underworld guard Qiudao and his subordinates. However, due to the recent shortage of manpower, they have to rely on the power of the Blood Crow.
The one who was finally decided was Sergeant Zhuo Ling, who rushed to the human world to carry out the crusade mission.
No one expected that this simple crusade would almost turn into a large-scale war.
