While eating, Steele kept trembling and was extremely frightened.
To be hanged? According to her legal knowledge, this seems to be the case.
If she acted as the judge herself, if a person committed a crime and then fell asleep in contempt of court during the trial, a hanging sentence would not be excessive at all. On the contrary, it would be reasonable.
It’s just that she doesn’t want to die!
She was not someone who was not afraid of death. Especially during this period, she had traveled to many places and experienced many things. She felt deeply that the world was vast and there were many things worth seeing and playing. How could she be willing to die now
I just played a big game yesterday, I was so happy, but I was about to die in the blink of an eye... This is so unlucky!
She did not doubt Sui Xiong's words. The angry look of the Jellyfish God was definitely not fake. In fact, she was not beaten to death on the spot. She already felt that she was lucky.
However, this is nothing more than delaying the death penalty a little bit...
The meal was tasteless to her. Out of fear, she dropped her spoon several times on the table. When she managed to finish the meal, pack her bags and leave the village, she seemed even more nervous.
If you want to hang someone, of course you have to hang him outside the village. How impolite it is to hang a dead person in someone else’s village!
When they walked for a while and passed a crooked-neck tree, Sui Xiong ordered everyone to stop.
"It's almost here, this tree is quite suitable." He said viciously, with murderous intent, "Steele, are you ready?"
Hearing this, Steele thought it was finally time to hang herself. Her legs could no longer stand and she collapsed on the ground.
Lei Ye's eyes widened in surprise. He had always thought that Sui Xiong was joking, or that the thunder was loud and the raindrops were small, and it was just to scare Steele. I never expected that His Majesty the Mask of the Void would really act in accordance with the law and hang Steele.
If he could see the top of his head, he would know that his previous guess was not wrong—although the green jellyfish had a very vicious tone, his eyes were clearly smiling.
Sui Xiong gently waved his tentacles and flew up from Lei's head. He transformed into a giant jellyfish that was bigger than a house. The tentacles emitted magical blue light, like thick ropes or vicious pythons, capable of trapping any enemy and strangling them alive. .
When a tentacle entangled Steele, even though she was usually extremely weird, she couldn't help but scream loudly.
However, Sui Xiong did not hang her on the crooked neck tree nearby, but opened his bloody mouth and swallowed her in one gulp.
Lei was so stunned that he even forgot to ask what happened.
What about the promised hanging? Why did it become swallowed alive? Your Majesty the Jellyfish God, can't you just bask in the sun and drink some water like a big tree? Why did he suddenly turn into a man-eating monster
This style of painting is wrong!
After a while, the jellyfish's mouth opened, and what came out was still Steele, but the tight ring was no longer on her forehead, and there were ring patterns on the backs of her hands that looked like birthmarks.
The ring on the left hand is red, and the ring on the right hand is blue. If you look carefully, you can see that each ring has two layers, inside and outside, separated by vertical bars in the middle, divided into twelve even grids.
Inside the twelve grids of the red ring, there is a small flame beating on the first grid, like a flame; inside the twelve grids of the blue ring, there is nothing.
"I thought about it carefully and felt that the previous method of tightening the curse was too simple and crude, and it was not a good idea to rely entirely on Lei to supervise it." Sui Xiong coughed twice and cleared his throat. He still didn't understand what was going on. The two people who were involved in the incident said, "So I decided to find another way."
"The two rings in your hand, the red one represents 'desire' and the blue one represents 'virtue'. Whenever desire rises in your heart, the flames in the red ring will increase. Once all twelve flames are lit, if… "
At this point, he stopped, coughed twice, and deliberately let it slip.
Lei, who had become accustomed to his speaking style during this period, immediately understood what he meant and asked with a smile: "What will happen?"
"Haha, it will-change! Into! A pig!"
Become a pig? !
Steele screamed in fright. She never imagined that although she had escaped the threat of death, she would have to face a horror that was no better than death.
For a woman who loves beauty, if she has to choose between "turning into an ugly pig" and "hanging", she may choose the latter more often.
"Change...change...into a pig?!" She couldn't help but trembled and asked, "Why...is it...a pig?"
Sui Xiong didn't expect her to ask this, so he scratched his head with his tentacles and said, "In some distant country, there is a story. A brave, strong, tall and handsome monk wants to go to the far west to obtain the legendary magic weapon that can save the world. Treasure. And under his command, there is a monkey with a bad personality, a pig that is always drunk, a water monster with a mind full of random thoughts, and a horse that is useless except for its good-looking appearance. "
"So... the last time you persuaded me to shave my head, you wanted me to play that monk?" Steele was still a little confused, but Lei came to his senses first and remembered something that happened not long ago.
They were camping that day, and Steele once again angered Lei, causing him to recite the tightening curse angrily. Sui Xiong didn't know what he thought of at that time and laughed. Afterwards, he asked Lei if he wanted to shave his head and change his clothes. He also said that he could help create two powerful magic weapons, one called "Nine-ring Tin Staff" and the other called "Jinlan Kasaya".
Of course Lei wanted a powerful magic weapon, but after seeing the pattern drawn by Sui Xiong, he regretfully rejected the suggestion.
That outfit looks like a warrior monk.
Later, Sui Xiong didn't mention it again, which made him feel a little regretful in retrospect - in fact, as long as he didn't shave his head, it wouldn't be a big deal to change his clothes. His black leather armor was also a bit conspicuous, so it wouldn't be a bad idea to change it.
But now he finally understands that this is clearly asking him to play the role of the monk!
Thinking of this, he couldn't help but shake his head and smile bitterly.
This Majesty of the Mask of the Void is indeed powerful and has a kind-hearted personality, but unfortunately his thinking is too out-of-the-box. He often thinks of some weird things, says some inexplicable words, and comes up with some ideas that make people laugh or cry.
Maybe this is the so-called "everything in the world is never perfect, there are always some shortcomings"...
After laughing for a while, Lei asked Sui Xiong: "You just said that the red ring represents 'desire' and the blue ring represents 'virtue'. Since 'desire' is punishment, then could 'virtue' be reward?" ?”
"That's right!" Sui Xiong waved his tentacles vigorously, like waving his arms, "I have always focused on restraining her and ignored her positive guidance. So this time I made major improvements. From now on, She can accumulate 'virtue' by doing good deeds, and people's gratitude will be accumulated in the blue ring. When the accumulation reaches a certain level, a ball of flame will be ignited on the blue ring. After all twelve balls of flame are ignited, she can get one ' The perfect wish-making spell'."
"Perfect wishing spell?!" Lei thought about it for a long time and couldn't think of such a spell. He asked curiously, "Is this spell very different from ordinary wishing spells? The wishing spell is very unreliable, even if it is added The word 'perfect' still seems very unreliable..."
It's not that Ray was being sarcastic, he was just telling the truth.
The wish-making series of spells has never been very reliable.
It is said that the principle of this series of spells is to "realize your wishes by understanding and modifying the world." At first glance, it looks very high-end and classy, but in fact it is a bit tricky - the world itself has a tendency to resist modification. When a person tries to use wishing to achieve a goal, the most common situation is not that the wish comes true, but that the wish is realized in some ridiculous or even harmful way.
For example, the relatively low-level "Inferior Wish Spell" can theoretically simulate any "intermediate" level spell. Even if you don't have the materials required to cast the spell, or you don't understand the spell, it will have no effect at all; it can remove almost all negative or negative effects. Positive spell effects, including breaking curses; being able to achieve any "low-level adventure" effect, whether it is directly getting rewards or directly getting results, there is no problem.
Well, in theory it can.
But in practice, except for some wishes that have been proven to be reliable - such as simulating other spells - almost any wish will be distorted and realized in a ridiculous way.
Many years ago, Lei once accidentally obtained a scroll of secondary wishing. After thinking about it carefully, he used it to make a wish, "I will become the strongest warrior in the world."
The result was... He got an invitation letter to the "World's Strongest Warrior Competition", and when he ran to participate in the competition with great interest, he found that the participants were all a group of rookies who were at the level of junior adventurers. Then I realized that this was just a competition for a small place to entertain itself.
Yes, he did win the competition and received a bronze medal symbolizing "The World's Strongest Warrior", but it was meaningless.
It's like a group of rookies who just learned martial arts went to Mount Huashan to discuss swordsmanship. Even if they pretended to be "the best in the world", who would take it seriously? It's just a joke.
That incident hit Lei quite hard, and several disputes were caused by it.
Coupled with some subsequent events, he didn't have a good impression of the wish-making technique at all. He even wondered more than once whether the great sage who invented this technique was drunk? Or maybe there's something wrong with your brain
This spell is not easy to use at all, it is just a scam!
Although His Majesty the Void Mask's past resume is indeed good and quite reliable; although the "Perfect Wishing Technique" seems to be more advanced than the "Inferior Wishing Technique" or "Wish Making Technique"...
But... the wish-making technique itself is unreliable!
