"Are you able to make a sound?" Xie Lun reached out and stroked the bangs that were hanging down on Arken's forehead. "It seems that you have found the corpse of the ancient god?"
"Yeah." Yakeen nodded and stammered, "Brother...brother, he helped...helped me, and I gained a lot."
"Okay, keep going."
Sherron tapped Yak'en's forehead, smiled, and then looked at Jamie: "Long time no see, Jamie."
Jamie smiled and reached out his hand: "Long time no see, thank you, Agent."
The two shook hands, Xie Lun raised his eyebrows, turned to Ya Keen and nodded: "He is real."
"Of course... of course."
Arcon pouted.
Sherron let go and looked at Billy again: "All the witnesses who were directly involved have arrived at the scene. Aren't you going to tell the truth?"
Billy pedaled his tricycle and flew around Sherron in thin air: "What I tell is the truth. I never lie."
"Don't think about it, it's impossible for him to tell the truth, because he simply can't." Jamie explained from the side, "Because he is actually one of the seven demon kings of hell, the King of Lies 'Billy'!"
When Jamie said the name "Billy", Billy, who was riding a tricycle, suddenly trembled all over, and then fell from the air. Before Sherron could take action, Acorn shot out a tentacle, grabbed Billy, and sent it to Sherron.
Sherron took Billy and shook it vigorously. He found that there was no reaction, as if Billy had turned into an ordinary little puppet.
"Stupid mortals, you have made a fatal mistake!"
The huge demon that had only roared originally also made a rumbling sound, but it was extremely unpleasant, just like two pieces of iron rubbing together.
"Are you the idiot who deliberately lured me to meet Billy?"
Xie Lun put the puppet away and sneered at the giant demon.
"It originally belonged to me, and it should be mine, but it's because of you stupid and obstructive mortals that it slipped away again."
The demon opened its bloody mouth, and countless ferocious fangs emerged from its mouth. From a high altitude, it looked like a bottomless abyss.
"Now that it's gone, it's up to you."
Along with the unpleasant sound it made, the space around Xie Lun and the others was distorted, and octopus tentacles shot out from it and rolled towards Xie Lun and the others.
"It's boring!" Sherron reached out and grabbed Jamie, who looked in pain, and said to Aken, "I'll leave it to you. I'll take him away first."
Arken nodded, opened his mouth and let out a "chaotic whisper". In an instant, the outstretched octopus tentacles changed, and big eyes grew out of the top. At the same time, the big demon began to shake violently, as if it had suffered extremely terrible torture.
Sherron took Jamie through the time and space gate and came to a residential building on the edge of Chernobyl. You can still see the demon struggling fiercely from a distance here, but the sound of the demon has been isolated because of the spell cast by Arken.
"Thank you."
Jamie took a long breath and turned pale. Just when he heard the devil's voice, he had the urge to jump into the abyss. Thanks to Sherron, he caught him in time.
"You're so polite. Just based on our relationship, how can I say thank you?" Sherron patted Jamie on the shoulder and smiled, "Tell me, aren't you staying in the town of Falravens?" , how did it end up in this situation?"
"Oh, forget it." Jamie shook his head helplessly, "After we separated, I was forcibly brought here by a black man possessed by a demon. Then my soul was stripped away and taken to hell. , the body is occupied by the demon."
"After I arrived in hell, I found a small puppet sitting on the throne where the devil should be sitting. And the puppet didn't hurt me. I couldn't leave its sight, and it would play and chat with me. After this After spending a long time together, I gradually discovered the secrets hidden by the puppets."
Jamie found a place on the roof, sat down, and continued: "Legend has it that when human ancestors ate the forbidden fruit and told the first lie, the devil representing lies was born in hell. With the development of human society , the demon became more and more powerful, and eventually became one of the seven demon kings, named 'Billy'."
"But Billy's abilities have always been limited by human society in this world, because 'lying' is a human instinct. It is impossible for someone to never lie in his life. Even if it is a white lie, it is still a lie. Therefore, Billy's ability is indeed very great. Strong, but there is a ceiling that cannot be broken through.”
"This situation is not unique to Billy. Similar situations exist in other demon kings, but other demon kings can all be improved. For example, the demon king Lilith represents fear. As long as humans are more afraid, the stronger her power will be. Another example is the demon king who represents fear. With the cunning Mephisto, if people start to plot against each other and use conspiracies, then his power will be enhanced."
"But as I just said, 'lying' is one of human instincts. You will lie naturally without any temptation or instigation. This leaves Billy with almost no way to further improve his power. After all, no one can make everyone Human beings lie all the time, or they always tell the truth.”
With that said, Jamie smiled at Sherron: “Even the Almighty God cannot do this.”
"It is precisely because of this that Billy is the least ambitious and laziest of the seven demon kings. He does not care about the direction of the world, the life and death of mankind, and even does not care about the size of his own territory in hell, because it is too Too boring."
"Just when it thought it would be bored forever, an ordinary human child caught its attention by whispering to his puppet. The child named his puppet Billy and would talk to it every night. The puppet tells what he sees and hears throughout the day and his true inner thoughts, and never lies."
"But that child is a typical antisocial personality. He is full of evil thoughts about everything around him, but he is also very smart. He has packaged himself with lies so that no one will notice his difference. But when he is alone at night, He will tell the puppet his true thoughts, such as how he wants to kill someone, or steal someone's favorite toy, etc... "
"Such a contrast aroused Billy's strong interest. And that child was the future mayor of Farravens Town, Edward."
Jamie gritted his teeth and said in a deep voice: "In fact, Edward has survived far longer than we imagined. Perhaps because of long-term communication, Billy and the puppet had a special connection, which influenced Edward through the puppet. , prolonging his life."
"You can imagine what happened next. As time went by, Edward's perverted desires grew stronger. He killed countless children and transformed them into dolls. And because there were more and more dolls, he became obsessed with Billy. He confided less and less, which led Billy to finally choose to leave him, which was also the reason why Edward later suffered from Mary Shaw's curse."
"While spending time with Edward, Billy's heart also changed. He was very curious. What would happen if a person who was used to lying and living in lies for a long time told the truth instead?"
