Chapter 3864 Winner(1/3)
Twilight City·Inner City, inside the big library.
Although this place is called the Great Library, the number of ancient books stored there is not very large, not even one ten millionth of the size of the Great Library of Souls. It is not that Lieyang Star has no background. At the end of the First Era, it was the dragon that swallowed the abyss.
·Guzi broke through the heavy protective barriers of Lieyang Star and spewed dragon flames into the city above Lieyang City.
With the hatred between the ancient dragon camp and the sun camp, of course, how to make each other more painful and how to destroy it. Burning down the royal palace in the central city is enjoyable, but it won't take long for the Sun God Clan to make the tribes that rely on them build a bigger and more magnificent one.
The royal palace is actually a large library in the royal city. There are many rare books here, and 99% of these books are unique.
The Dragon of the Abyss, Guzi, has swallowed up even the energy of the abyss. It is a miracle that it can still maintain a certain degree of sanity. Naturally, it does not care what kind of damage it will cause to the civilization of the First Era by burning the large library in the royal city. In addition, at the end of the First Era, it is
The Sun and Ancient Dragon camps fought at their most ferocious.
In the end, Guz, the dragon that devoured the abyss, was killed by the Sun King who drove back, but the large library of the royal city was reduced to ashes, and one-fifth of the royal city buildings were reduced to ruins.
The tall bookshelf made of walnut wood stands tall, with the patina of time on it, giving the wood grain a sense of time. When you pick up the ancient books on the bookshelf and smell them, you can still smell a faint burnt smell.
Next to the tall bookshelf at the innermost side, there is a candlestick on a small round wooden table. The darkness in the latter half of the night is somewhat driven back by the dim candlelight. A stooped and skinny old man stands on the edge of the candlelight.
In front of the bookshelf, the old hand took an ancient book. The bark-like skin seemed to be older than the ancient book.
This frail old man in a gray robe is actually the leader of the Great Library camp, the Eyeless Sage. Not only are his eye holes pitch black, but because the gray robe is open, you can see that he is so dry that his ribs are visible.
The chest, and further down, is the empty abdomen, just like the abdomen that has been ripped open by a wild beast, there is darkness, as if it is this darkness that allows these old monsters to continue to live.
A few meters away, Su Xiao was sitting on a crystal chair, reading an ancient book on pharmacy. After meeting the old monster, he discovered that the other party was not an Immortal species, or even a Sun God clan, but a human race.
The more this happens, the more powerful the old monster is. Looking at the entire sun camp, the old monster is definitely not the strongest, but he is the most viable.
This is also the puzzling point. When Su Xiao first came to Twilight City, he was always on guard against this old monster who had lived from the first era to the present. But as things developed later, he found that the old monster was the one with the least desires and desires.
Augustus and Black Bertha, who are fighting for power, form a sharp contrast.
This makes people wonder, what is the purpose of the old monster? And why did he endure the pain of the erosion of the abyss and survive until the third era?
You know, if the old monster wants to become the controller of Twilight City, not to mention the current Lord of the Sun, Ashlot, even Ashlot's grandfathers are no match for this old monster.
Combining all this, the old monster no longer feels like he is plotting something, but more like he is waiting for something. Under such circumstances, cooperating with this old monster is the best choice at the moment. In any case, Su Xiao is an outsider.
If he doesn't cooperate with one of the local forces, the powerful people in Twilight City who have been unhappy with him for a long time will swarm him.
It is not difficult to kill all the powerful people in Twilight City, but the problem is that they will not be able to enter Twilight City openly.
"That happened a long time ago. A group of us strayed into that dark place, and only three of us came out alive. Compared to the two of them, the traces I left in future generations are not worth mentioning."
The old monster Eyeless Sage spoke.
"..."
Su Xiao looked suspiciously at the old monster who was wiping the cover of the ancient book. He had not made any clear purpose since he came.
"Huh? Didn't you just ask about what happened to the three of us? Did I remember it wrong? What did you ask just now?"
"I did not say anything."
"No way, lying is not a good habit for young people."
The old monster put the wiped ancient books back into their original places, then took the one he had just wiped and started to wipe it again.
Su Xiao has seen many old Yinbies with outstanding acting skills. It is unheard of for them to be able to play the role of an old monster. In addition, there is no need for the other party to perform this kind of performance under such circumstances. It is speculated that the control of this big library
It seems that there is some... memory loss caused by Alzheimer's disease.
"Dharma Destroyer, you just said, what is your name?"
"white night."
"Oh, Bai Ye."
The old monster nodded thoughtfully, put back the wiped ancient book, picked up the second one that had just been wiped, and wiped it carefully. Judging from the wear and tear of the nearby ancient books, the old monster specifically harmed them.
Ah, it's a cyclic form of forgetting.
"Don't worry, I still remember very important things. For example, you just came to Lieyang Star yesterday."
"..."
"It seems that I remembered it wrong. You should be more tolerant towards the elderly, not to mention that I am alive..."
Speaking of this, the old monster suddenly got stuck. He seemed to be meditating on how many years he had lived. Seeing this, Su Xiao's eyes became more solemn. Based on the other person's current memory, if he could really recall how many years he had lived, it would be difficult.
They were all so tired that they fell asleep.
"Two and a half eras."
Hearing Su Xiao's reminder, the old monster looked suspicious and asked: "Have I lived for so long? It's terrible. Then I have become an immortal old monster. But how did I live for so long? It seems like eating
Lost...darkness?"
The old monster narrowed his dark eyes without eyeballs, then shook his head in disappointment, and then asked: "That..."
"white night."
"Oh, Bai Ye, what are you doing here this time?"
"I need "prophet enlightenment", please give me a price."
"Well, let me think about where to put this ancient book. It seems to be on my bookshelf? Come with me."
The old monster made a move. For some reason, Su Xiao had a vague feeling that the old monster should never be so kind and kind. The other party had such an attitude for the following reasons.
1. The negotiation effect derived from Su Xiao’s own charm attribute.
Ahem, let’s rule this out first.
2. Some of my previous actions have gained the favor of the old monster.
This is not very reliable. When he first came to Twilight City, he sensed the old monster in the direction of the Great Library that swallowed the darkness of the abyss and survived until the third era. He remained vigilant and wait-and-see. Although he did not have a hostile attitude, he did not
As for making the other person so kind and kind.
3. As a law destroyer, I finally received positive feedback in terms of negotiation.
Thinking of this, Su Xiao immediately recalled Green Gillian. It happened frequently because of the opponent's shooting. Now this time, there was finally positive feedback from the extermination camp.
More than ten minutes later, in the old monster's study on the lower floor of the big library, he fumbled on the bookshelf for a moment and took out an ancient book.
"I got this "Prophet's Enlightenment"...where did I get it?"
The old monster thought for a moment and didn't think of it, so he simply stopped thinking about this unimportant matter. Thinking about it, if he remembered all the trivial matters from the first era to the present, no matter how strong his mental body was, he would also
Going crazy due to memory confusion.
"Who are you going to give this ancient book to?"
"Xiguang City, City Lord."
"Oh, it's that little brat. He has established Xiguang City for a few years, and I don't know how it is developing."
"Sharein."
"Huh? This name sounds a bit familiar. Let me think about it...oh~, Xiguang City has been established for so many years. It seems that there have been several generations of city owners."
"What price should I pay for this ancient book?"
"It's a very high price. You can't pay it now. I will collect it when you are qualified. I think this time is not far away. We will witness it together then."
The old monster placed the "Prophet's Enlightenment" on the wooden table next to Su Xiao. After he sat down at the wooden table, he sighed and said: "I, this old guy, can no longer taste the taste of food. I can only taste the food brewed by natural elements."
Fine wine can give this half-dead old monster some flavor."
At the end of the sentence, the old monster sighed.
"..."
Su Xiao took out the elemental wine, and the old monster across the wooden table naturally took two wine glasses from the cabinet shelf. It seemed that his Alzheimer's disease was intermittent, and the old monster was relatively sober at this time.
The skinny old monster, whose robes were loose and open, raised a glass of wine with a somewhat free and easy movement. This was because this was the lowest level of wine in the big star tree and large wine barrel. It had a more mellow taste, but also had a spiciness. The old monster
As the monster spit out the smell of alcohol, its cloudy pupils became clearer.
"Your next opponent will be a nun."
"..."
"It does seem like, give up, this is a trap."
"trap?"
"You should have discovered that only Twilight City can bathe in the sun for a long time. The further away from here, the dimmer the sunlight becomes. When you reach the Sacred Heart City in the south or the Nightmare Land in the north, the sky is dark."
When the old monster said this, he picked up a pottery cup the size of a wine cup and drank the wine in one gulp. This finally made him feel a little bit alive. He continued:
"Lingmian City of the Soul Academy and Sacred Heart City of the Gods Religion are both in the dark place in the south. They directly go to war with Twilight City to compete for the land that is bathed in the sun every day. They don't dare to, but continue,
I’m not willing to give in, so…”
"The road to becoming a king."
"Yes, the 32 "Sun Source Stones" originally owned by the Sun God Clan are now scattered all over the place and are owned by many powerful people. The trial of becoming a king in the name of recovering the "Sun Source Stone" is the best reason.
It makes Twilight City unable to refuse, and it can also wait for the opportunity."
The old monster revealed the secret contained in the "Road to Become a King". In simple terms, this is a trial launched by Soul Academy and Sacred Heart City to Twilight City. Each of the three parties sent a team to recapture the "Sun Source".
To be continued...
