Chapter 44: Sketch
The dragon bone cross, such a precious treasure, must be kept carefully no matter what it falls into the hands of anyone or organization. The last time it appeared was at Xiziyue's request, and the rest of the time was sealed in the warehouse deep underground.
Unexpectedly, the boss dragged it out again, at this most dangerous moment.
"Norton's dragon bone cross, is it... a weapon for Nishiziyue?" Looking at the green red bone, Juicy Mai felt awe.
"Yes, only Xiziyue in the world is qualified to use this weapon, which is her privilege." The boss walked into the side room and half-kneeled in front of Norton's bones, like a servant running behind the saddle for the general.
Out of his personal evil taste, this dragon bone was installed with the armor of the Southern Barbarians from the Warring States Period. It was majestic and ferocious. Even if it was not moving, it also had the aura of an emperor.
But it is indeed dead, and now it is shrouded in armor is not so much a king as a past history.
"You said it was a weapon, and this is what..." The doubts in Jude Mai's heart further deepened.
The keel cross is of course the most powerful weapon in the world. The simplest and most crude case is the burning blood developed by Kassel through the keel of Constantine, but it is only the most superficial use, like treating oil as a ignitable throwing ability.
Weapons, not to drive tanks, were done by the Byzantines.
The best way to use the Dragon Bone Cross is of course to swallow and completely seize the Dragon King’s authority hidden in it. Only in this way can it be enough to resist another Dragon King head-on.
Swallow......
Thinking of this, Mai Sakuto felt a little trembling at the battle that might eventually break out.
"Yes, you have guessed Mai, it's just swallowing." The boss said, "To be precise, it's fusion."
"Fusion?" This is the first time that Mai Jiude heard this term.
"Remember I told you before? Nishikotsu sneaked into the ice cellar at that time, and it is very likely that she obtained the 'right to revoke' by profiling contact with Constantine's bones. Since that's the case, she might be able to get the 'right to revoke' from Norton's bones.
What to get," said the boss.
"Later, when I saw her appearance when she came out of the bronze city below Iceland, I realized what she had obtained from Norton... a Word Spirit, a rather terrible Word Spirit, she used this
The Spirit of Words merged with the Seven Deadly Sins and burst out with a force that rivaled the rage. Her later appearance changes were the effect of lust, which means that she was connected to this weapon with blood."
"However, this also reflects a problem from the side... She can indeed see that little boy. Without his help, Xiziyue would not have been able to obtain the spirit of the word." Speaking of this, the boss's tone
Suddenly cooled down.
"That little boy?" Mai Yuto's eyes widened.
"Little boy?" Mai Jiude was puzzled.
"Have you forgotten the order I gave to you and Zero at the beginning? If you find that Xiziyue can talk to a little boy who is invisible and dressed in black, kill her immediately, don't hesitate at all." The boss said.
Of course, Mai Jiude remembered that she remembered every order from the boss very clearly, but the prerequisites for this task were quite vague, but the goal was too sensational, which made her difficult to deal with.
But now it seems that the boss has confirmed this, and Xiziyue is indeed related to the little boy.
"This order is temporarily revoked." The boss smiled a little helplessly. "Xiziyue can't die so quickly. At least she can't die before the fall of the King of Ocean and Water."
"I understand." Jude Mai nodded.
Although this passage is very confusing, it does not bother people. As a loyal sharp blade, she does not need to know the reason for swinging the knife.
"Has that girl received this order?" Jiude Mai pointed to Zero.
"Of course, Zero received it. She was obviously much more relaxed when she received it. It seemed that she did regard Xiziyue as a friend." The boss's smile was warm.
"It's great. The ending of blood and betrayal doesn't have to come so early. The girls in the upright flower season still have plenty of time to enjoy. Leviathan's body is a place to create memories."
The boss spoke in a calm voice, but there seemed to be clear and sad notes hidden behind each syllable, which formed a small poem.
Jude Mai sighed for no reason, always feeling that such a plot seemed to have been staged more than once.
"Is this the script you arranged?" she asked.
The boss smiled: "You want to ask me if I have a special liking for creating tragedies, right?"
Mai Jiude was stunned: "You are right..."
"Of course not. Although I have written many heartbreaking stories, I honestly don't like them because every tragedy I write will challenge me happy. End failed."
"You are not like the kind of person who can pursue a happy ending." Mai Jiude told the truth.
"For me, creating a story is a reverse process. I first set a tragic ending, and then constantly enhance the characters I wrote, so that they can challenge the tragedy and usher in their own light... Unfortunately,
Things went against their wishes, and they often failed to cross that line...that line I firmly controlled them." The boss sat back to Jiude Mai, looking at the horizon of winter under the night, saying no
Is it loneliness or regret?
"Does it have to be beyond your control to get a good ending?" Mai Jiude seemed to understand what the other party meant.
"It's worthy of being Mai, I understand what I mean at once." The boss praised, "This is what creation is. The interests of the author and the character are not always consistent. The author can kill a character for the perfection of the work.
, but the character just wants to survive, even if she lives in a very difficult situation, so she must break free from the author's control."
"As long as the pen is still in the hands of the author, the character can't escape, right?" said Mai Jiude.
The boss smiled and shook his head: "Ma Yi, you don't understand yet that a truly excellent author is never fate itself, but an executor. He can control the environment, time, and events, but he can't control the character itself, so the character can escape.
If you go out, as long as she can find her own soul."
"So, whether it is Xiziyue, Zero, or Yemenggard, Charlotte, and Paliyi, please come on, I'm looking forward to what end you can offer to this excellent stage." The boss pondered.
Full.
After hearing this, Mai said nothing and poured wine for the boss silently.
The two pet cats suddenly meowed and rubbed against Jiude Mai's hand, holding sketch paper that they had drawn from somewhere in their mouths.
"This is..." Mai Jiude took the paper from their mouths and turned it over to check it out. There were some strange sketches on it.
"You two are really. I obviously threw it away, but I forced you brothers and sisters to take it back." The boss stretched out his hand and stroked the two Siamese cats on the heads, as if they were very happy.
I cater to the ground, and I am as well-behaved as a dog.
"What is this?" Jude Mai looked at these sketches with surprise.
"Before you came, I suddenly had a whim and randomly graffitied some memories that surged up... about Lilith." The boss lay gently on the floor, and the memories returned to a long time ago.
If any of the Valkyrie teams were present, they would be surprised to see the contents of these paintings.
Sketches about the city of whales, the huge Ferris wheel, the central building of black iron, merchant ships and travelers from south to north, the solemn guards like black owls... changing to vibrant at night
Maid shop.
There is also the airship swimming in the air, like a giant whale in the sea of clouds.
