Elinor opened his eyes in the dark.
For a while, he hardly knew where he was.
Until the deadly, searing wounds on his back and stomach awakened his sanity, instilling the truth into his mind coldly and cruelly.
Yes, now he is finally awake.
Elano could clearly smell the curse behind him. The vicious spells attached to the wound eroded his blood and bones moment by moment as time went by, and each second was closer to his heart and lungs than the last, and he could even feel that his breath seemed to carry it. Curse that rich, decadent smell.
Compared to this, the wounds on the stomach are insignificant.
Even though it was the source of all the pain, the culprit that forced the godhead from his body.
Yi Leno tasted the burns and patina left by the dark elements on the tongue, and the golden vertical pupils burned coldly in the darkness.
The power of faith has been completely lost from his body, and the cold hollow feeling spreads from the spine to the limbs that cannot maintain the human shape. Even the thick fur can't resist the elemental conflict, resulting in extreme cold.
Everything feels numb and distant.
Only the sting of being betrayed was clearly etched in the depths of his mind. Every time he touched it, the bloodthirsty fury rushed uncontrollably, gnawing at all his remaining reason.
But Elinor couldn't recall any details about that betrayal.
All the memories of the realm and the gods were gradually lost from his body as the godhead was stripped away.
But that doesn't mean he doesn't remember the tragedy that followed.
Yi Leno licked the small wound on his upper limb, rolled up the flesh and the newly healed blood scab with his barbed tongue, he tasted the taste of his own blood, and let the pain stimulate his nerves.
Pain is a good thing. The pain woke him up.
The forcible stripping of the godhead does not mean losing the powerful body that was forged. Only the weapons forged by believers can truly harm the gods.
…or rather, former believers.
Yes, the deprivation of Godhead was set by the other gods, but those other malevolent curses and mortal wounds all came from humans—the good, the loyal, the fanatic, the obedient, the weak.
The God of Light wants to purify the world.
So the god of war must be removed.
He brought carnage, bloodthirsty, ferocity and madness. He was the only remaining god of the dark faction in the war of light and darkness 30,000 years ago. To eliminate the god of war is to eliminate war.
Everyone looked at him with fear and hatred.
[He should go back to where he should be. Go back to his dark elect.]
Yi Leno tasted the faint element of light in his blood, and evoked a cold and mocking smile.
You must know that all his power of belief comes from the believers of light, and the battle between the light and dark camps 30,000 years ago was when his divine power was greatly filled. Only the human desire for fighting and power can nourish a god in charge of war. The name of the god of war is high, and the position of the god is vacant. Sooner or later, a second god can appear in a long time and condense a new godhead. .
Killing gods is easy.
But destroying a god is not so easy.
— but they have to pay the price anyway.
At this moment, Elinor heard a faint sound, his ears moved, and his eyes instantly focused on the darkness not far away.
Across the rich dark elements, the acuity of his five senses is much lower than when he was facing the mainland. He narrowed his golden eyes, and within the blurred and dim line of sight, he could see barely a figure curled up under the rocky cliff. The protruding shoulder blades were thin and fragile, shivering like fallen leaves in a violent storm, as if experiencing a strange experience. human torture.
Take Leno to sniff the air.
… Humanity
Eileen licked his sharp teeth, recalling the fragmented scene before he passed out—
Black worms, burning clouds of fire.
He knew why he was here. That is a powerful and vicious curse, enough to drag the gods to the back of the continent, but why is this human being in Calvary, occupied by dark creatures such as demon monsters
Maybe another trap.
A suppressed rage flashed from the depths of Leno's icy pupils. A cold and bloodthirsty look emerged. He silently accumulated strength in the dark, waiting for the moment when the opponent approached, so that he could use his blade-like fangs and claws to shred that fragile body.
Time passed slowly.
The trembling and gasping sounds in the distance finally subsided, and silence returned to the empty cave.
Eileen heard the sound of the opponent standing up against the rock wall, and the sound of footsteps approaching gradually. He narrowed his golden eyes, his eyes accustomed to the bright sunlight were not adapted to the pure darkness of Calvary, where there was almost no light. In the blurred and dim line of sight, a tall and thin figure can be seen slowly approaching.
But... the other party seems to be much bigger than he remembered
Eileen is not so sure.
After all, near-death experiences cause distortions in the senses.
But it doesn't matter. His sharp teeth were stirring, eager to tear apart all the flesh that stood in his way, aching faintly from the intense desire to be watered by blood.
Eileen waited calmly, muscles tensing slowly, limbs ready to go.
Finally, the opponent entered his attack range.
He showed his fangs, and the hunger that belonged only to predators hunted and burned in the dark golden vertical pupil, and then slammed forward—
and many more
Something doesn't seem right
The wind whistled in his ears, and Leno's eyes flashed a panicked look, but before he could understand, he fell to the ground in the next second, rolled several times, and then hit a hard object.
Ge Xiu lowered his head and looked at the ball of fur that hit his toes with a subtle expression, then squatted down, grabbed the back of its neck with two fingers, and picked up the fluffy thing.
The dirty-furred little wolf was waving its claws in mid-air, and the two little wings behind it fluttered with difficulty, trying to get rid of Ge Xiu's fingers, and a low growl roared from his throat, trying to show his deterrent power.
... Was it that big just now
right
Ge Xiu shook the ball of hair that was being carried in mid-air, and for the first time began to doubt his memory.
However, if you look closely, you can see that the huge gap on its stomach has been healed, but it was torn again due to struggle, and the dried blood scabs were adhered to the fur and moistened with blood again, although the deep mesh scars on the back are still there. There is no sign of repair, but it is clearly out of critical condition. Even the white light emanating from his body has solidified a lot.
Could it be some kind of self-protection mechanism? Gossiu thought uncertainly.
He deftly avoided the opponent's attempt to scratch himself, and pinched the flapping wings behind the little wolf curiously - the little thing responded with an angry roar.
…has wings.
So, can you fly
Gossi blinked thoughtfully.
During this period of time, he touched almost every inch of the land at the bottom of the abyss, and was very familiar with its structure from beginning to end. He can say responsibly that every rock wall is as smooth and steep as the Like being cut by a sharp blade, there is hardly any way to climb out.
Flying out is a good option.
… if only this little thing could go back to its original size as quickly as possible.
Ge Xiu shook it again—this time, the little wolf didn't make useless struggles in mid-air, just stared at him with those beautiful golden eyes, as if he wanted to bite a piece of flesh from him with his eyes. .
The boy in the dark pursed his lips silently.
They will definitely get along very well. Gossi thought happily.
He manipulated the dark elements to condense into a hollow sphere, fit the wolf into it properly, and fixed the limbs to prevent the wound from being torn again due to tampering.
Ge Xiu broke the barrier that was repaired yesterday, and moved quickly towards his residence.
Under the abyss, many monsters have their own areas under their jurisdiction. Invading the boundaries of other creatures is a very risky choice. Although Ge Xiu likes to live without a fixed place and feel adventurous all the time, but due to his fixed period of weakness every night, he is unstoppable. So I had to choose a relatively safe place for myself.
Behind the huge rock more than ten meters above the cliff, there is a shallow cave whose existence is basically undetectable on the ground. Animal discovery with keen senses. This shelter hidden in the rocky peaks is very secluded, bringing him essential shelter.
Ge Xiu skillfully found a foothold among the jagged rocks protruding from the rock wall, and jumped to the platform at the entrance of the cave with light movements.
The cave was empty, almost nothing.
Ge Xiu sat down cross-legged and opened the ball.
Almost at the moment when the sphere disappeared, the creature trapped in it rushed out like a fluffy cannonball, almost leaving an afterimage. from the neck.
But Gossiu was clearly prepared.
The dark elements in the air suddenly thickened, and they were firmly guarded around him like a solidified entity. The attack and speed of the little wolf were suddenly weakened, and there was a look of pain on the fluffy face. When Xiu approached, the strength of his limbs had basically slackened by half.
Ge Xiu looked at him calmly, without the slightest emotion in his eyes, just evaluating it purely rationally.
Sure enough, the dark elements in the abyss did a lot of damage to it.
A bona fide outsider.
He lowered his eyes, his thoughtful gaze suddenly paused—.
I saw the wounds on the little wolf's chest and back cracked again, wetting its dirty fur that couldn't see the color again, and bleeding dripping from it.
Ge Xiu sucked in a breath of cold air, grabbed the little wolf by the back of the neck for the second time, and picked it up, then quickly sealed the cave with a barrier of elements.
The abyss is always surrounded by the smell of blood, but blood belonging to warm-blooded animals is rare here. That fresh and warm taste is an irresistible temptation for all monsters in the abyss.
He would try his best to treat the wound outside and come back every time, in case some monsters followed the smell of blood to find his hiding place and destroy the pure land he had worked so hard to maintain.
Ge Xiu looked at the dense wounds on Little Wolf's body, sighed, and added two more barriers at the entrance of the cave.
It seems that dealing with its wounds is a priority.
The wolf who was carried in midair no longer struggled, but the seemingly sagging limbs were still secretly charging, and the sharp snow-white fangs were slightly exposed, facing Ge Xiu in an extremely vigilant defensive posture. A pair of eyes like molten gold stared at him coldly, as if looking at a lifeless dead thing.
Ge Xiu raised his eyebrows: "Can you understand me?"
The wolf didn't respond.
Ge Xiu was not discouraged: "Just blink if you understand what I'm saying?"
The wolf's eyes didn't blink.
"Move your paws?" Ge Xiu bargained.
The wolf's paw didn't move.
"Then, the tail?" Ge Xiu relented and gave in again.
The fluffy, dirty tail hangs in the air, not even the tip of the tail fluttering.
In the narrow cave, only Ge Xiu was talking to himself, looking rather silly.
Gossi gave up. He flattened his mouth, sighed, and was about to put the little wolf down, but suddenly heard a loud sound—
"Grumble-"
Ge Xiu was stunned and looked in the direction of the voice.
The end of the line of sight is the dirty belly of the little wolf.
The ball of fur in his hand froze, as if it didn't expect such a thing to happen.
Looking at its embarrassment, Ge Xiu was overwhelmed with joy. He smiled and took the little wolf a little closer, and the expression on his face seemed to be malicious:
"hungry?"
He shook the little bit who was holding the slip in his hand: "If you move, I'll give you something to eat?"
The cold golden pupils of the little wolf were almost on fire, the snow-white teeth were uncontrollably sticking out of his lips, and the sharp claws flashed out from the flesh pads. down.
next second.
"Grumble-"
The thunderous sound played in its stomach, and then it was amplified several times by the narrow rock wall, and the little wolf froze again, like a hard and fluffy little sculpture, hanging upright in the air.
But the next second, the flames in its eyes burned even more intensely, almost to the point of anger.
Ge Xiu had no doubt that if given the chance, this little thing would be very willing to take himself for dinner.
He closed it when he saw it, so he sighed regretfully, and put the little wolf lightly on the ground:
"Okay, okay, don't move if you don't move. It's okay, I don't dislike you."
Ge Xiu's tone was reluctant, as if he had made a big compromise, and it sounded extraordinarily...
Shameless.
The little wolf gritted his teeth.
Ghosh crossed his legs with satisfaction, and pulled out two Ariust hearts from his bag.
The dark elements in the backpack continuously provide nourishment for the hearts placed in it, which very skillfully simulates its original environment. Even after a whole day has passed, those hearts are still beating fast or slow. Some of the periphery has even been coated with a thin layer of translucent plasma again. As long as they are given a little more time, they will grow a new body sooner or later.
But Ghosh wasn't ready to give them that chance.
He caught one in the palm of his hand, and skillfully absorbed the life force from it into his body. In less than half a minute, only a thin layer of skin was left. Then he picked a smaller heart out of the remaining hearts in the backpack and threw it in front of the little wolf.
The bloody, strong heart muscle was exposed to the air, still slowly rising and falling.
A rich dark element radiates from the heart.
Ge Xiu looked at Eleanor intently, and pushed the throbbing flesh closer with his fingertips, with silent curiosity and exploration in his eyes.
