Mercenaries and Adventurers - Vol 4 Chapter 221
Kiel snorted coldly, but was not taken away by the other party: “The miserable situation? Who are you bluffing?”
Seeing that the young humans didn’t like this, the big bird **** made of shadows immediately changed his communication style.
“Gah! Look at you, you are riddled with grievances. They are the malice of those you killed and destroyed. They are the last obsessions before going to the place where you should go. Quack, quack, it will kill you! ”
Kiel spat, “Who are you cursing? I’ve never heard of a knight dying from killing too much, not in legends! not in country tales!”
“Really? That’s just because the stories about reducing entangled souls are hidden in the story. Ga! Small human beings, although you can’t see it in the real world, you will be in a trance and exhausted first.”
“Then the hands and feet twitched uncontrollably.”
“Then I had hallucinations and was very prone to violent rage.”
“In the end, there is no distinction between the enemy and the enemy, and the killing intent.”
“At that time, you won’t be you! Ga! Or, do you think those poor little things on your body can save you? Ga! Delusion! Only the great howler of crows can save you with great mercy! Not some impotent patron saint of laborers, or usurper of a false sun.”
“Ga! Don’t think about going to the Drunken Dreamer for help. You are just a small chess piece of him. Don’t think about manipulating the chess player. Small human beings, the only one you can rely on and plead with is me! Ga!”
Keel saw that while uttering this series of words, the shadowy bird, which was about twice its size, had been staring closely at his face with a pair of shiny black and cold eyes.
The two looked at each other, and Keir seemed to be able to see his miserable end after pleading and failing all the way from the other’s eyes.
The accompanying companions were killed by him in a fit of rage. At first, the other young people were afraid of his power and reluctantly obeyed his words, but soon they would be killed by him for some trivial matter, and those young refugees became uneasy.
They attacked him collectively on a certain night, but he killed many young people with his bare hands, and then he became more and more courageous in the battle, and then put on armor, and after killing hundreds of people, all of them fled away.
Afterwards, Kiel was possessed by more killing desires, and he was in a daze. He completely became a killing demon wandering in the wild. After several years, he was completely wiped out by the local noble army.
When he came back to his senses, Keir coughed twice, and the corners of his mouth curled up involuntarily.
“Ahem, this one really has an old-fashioned ending.” He no longer looked at the big bird god, but said in his mouth: “I have to say, at least you’d better listen to the current popular songs these days.” Poetry, or the latest drama.”
The big bird **** was taken aback for a moment, and then let out a dissatisfied quack.
“Your old-fashioned routine can’t even fool the most ordinary peasant boy.”
“Ga! Disrespectful guy, who lied to you! Quack, that’s your pathetic future!”
Keir sat on the ground with his legs crossed. It was strange to say that he was clearly wearing a suit of armor on the outside, but he was wearing his own winter clothes on the inside.
“Let’s not waste time here. Let’s talk about it. You, a god, brought me here today and said so much nonsense. What do you want to do? How about making a deal directly?”
The big bird **** paused, but the huge bird head looked left and right, directing Keel’s attention to the many shadow birds on the left and right branches.
“What consciousness?”
The big bird **** raised its head: “This is the crow believer guided by my avatar during these days.”
He looked very pleased with himself.
But Keir looked puzzled: “You’d better say clearly, I’m not a professional church priest, and I don’t understand the ‘professional vocabulary’ you said.”
The god’s bird face fell down, and his tone seemed a little displeased: “Ignorant little human beings. Quack!”
“So what are you going to do with me, an ignorant human being, today? To be honest, the far-sighted ability you gave me is not very useful, and I am not an archer. If my eyesight is not so good, I can still fight .”
The big bird **** seems to have existed for so many years, especially after being freed again, it was the first time he met a guy like Keel.
He seemed to sigh with his bird’s beak, and figured it out, other ordinary human beings were not useful, but this human being who was useful did not respect him so much.
Because the other party doesn’t ask for anything from him, there is no respect or disrespect. But He asked for something from the other party.
“I have a way to get rid of a lot of killing thoughts on you, those broken souls that are hostile and entangled with you, I can use them as a resource, mix with these shadow birds of mine, and become a powerful weapon! Ga! This is a A very good thing for you. Humans, how.”
“arms?”
Kiel rubbed his chin with his hands, and looked at the crimson entangled souls covering the skin on his arms. Those things were like tumbling swamps, and one or two distorted and howling faces appeared from time to time.
It looked scary, but Kiel himself felt nothing. It just looks uncomfortable.
After pondering for a while, Kiel raised his head and asked: “A weapon, mixed with these haunted evil spirits, the main body is your little birds. So, who owns the handle of this weapon? Or in other words , who is the owner of this weapon?”
“Of course it’s me! Ga!”
Keir rolled his eyes: “It’s okay, we can leave. Please put me back, I still want to sleep for a while. Hey – I haven’t slept much for two days, sleepy.”
As he said that, he stretched his waist and wrote big characters on the shadowy ground behind him, making a look like he was going to sleep straight away.
“It’s good for you! Lazy humans! Quack!”
Keir directly: “Ha, whoo-ha, whoo-”
Pretending to sleep, pretending to get up.
The two froze.
“One, that’s all there is to it.”
Keir opened his left eye and glanced slightly at the big bird god: “What one?”
The big bird **** screamed, and then one of the many shadow birds around flew down. It first flew around the place where the **** was, respectfully, and then flapped its wings silently and landed on the one next to Kiel’s head. on the ground.
Keel looked over his shoulder at the tiny creature.
It’s a bird-like thing made of a lot of shadowy matter, looks like a bird, and acts like a bird.
This thing is made up of black shadows of different shades, and it is only about ten centimeters high. It is really not big, and it is considered a small one among the many birds around.
“Too small!”
Kiel complained, then added: “And there’s only one, can I have more?”
“No! Ga! Don’t even think about it! Ignorant mortals, you are just a small warrior who has been transformed from a knight. Don’t think too highly of yourself. A shadow bird under your command is already your limit. No matter how many, you Can your body survive? If you are willing to bow down to me and surrender your faith to me, I am willing to use a shadowed body for you to enhance your carrying capacity after you have suffered so much. ”
The big bird’s huge bird head looked down at Kiel: “Would you like to?”
Kiel snorted lightly, but said nothing more.
“If you want to make a deal, you’d better be sincere.”
He said so.
The big bird **** spread out its huge wings, and its body was already about the size of a normal harpy.
“I am a god!”
Kiel snuffed his nose: “The down and out god.”
“rude!”
“If you think I’m rude, then find someone else to harass you. I’m really sleepy. I hope you don’t come to me at this time and let me sleep well.”
The gods will not hold Keel’s rudeness to account.
There was silence in the shadow realm for a while. Keel sat up and teased the little bird beside him with his hand. The little thing pecked him and then jumped onto his hand.
Kiel looked at this thing carefully, and said in his mouth: “So, when will you start to help me get rid of the evil thoughts and souls on my body? Although I don’t take them seriously, they look really disgusting. When I think about it, besides this, I don’t feel comfortable seeing these things anywhere else.”
He raised his head: “To be honest, I have to thank you. If it weren’t for this special function in this place, who would have known that there is such a battlefield on my body that no one knows about.”
Keel noticed that his small cleansing mushrooms were gradually increasing on his arms.
On the mycelium and feet of the small purification mushroom that was fighting independently, that is, on the skin of Kiel’s body, a dangling pocket small purification mushroom grew from the root connection.
He secretly breathed a sigh of relief. He had been stubborn before, but he was actually afraid that the purification mushrooms brought to him by the goblin would not be able to defeat the results of this mass killing.
But fortunately, the purification mushrooms that were suppressed when they first came here have now begun to ‘reproduce’ and their numbers have increased. As long as he doesn’t fight and kill those entangled souls, the number will not increase. They are considered as rootless trees, and the total amount is fixed, so it is only a matter of time before they are wiped out by the little purification mushroom.
After making this discovery, he regained his confidence. No, he pretended not to care before, but this time he really relaxed.
Kiel was teasing the little shadow bird on his palm, while the huge bird **** in front of him said, “Get rid of the entangled souls and evil thoughts on your body, and mix them with these shadow birds of mine to make them into a weapon, Ability. Requires a ritual. Gah!”
“ceremony?”
Keir immediately remembered the ceremony performed in Montoka City a few days ago.
It’s not very complicated.
But he thought otherwise, the rituals of the Saturnalia Church were not complicated, the priests who simply performed the rituals were exceptionally strong, and later the Saturnalia God himself came, so it was naturally easy.
But how many followers of the **** of agriculture, how much influence, how strong the divine power is.
The big bird **** doesn’t have any of these things.
Not at all.
Believers, there are probably only some random flocks of unwise birds that gathered in remote wild forests after the colorful birds were possessed before. The smartest are only a few old crows and finches, and the strongest are just a bunch of birds. Small prairie owl.
It’s really hard to come up with, not even a single intelligent creature.
Influence is basically zero.
Divine power can even compete with a beggar’s begging bowl or a gambler’s money bag. Every action has to be counted as the consumption of divine power, and it must be used carefully.
Every time I pull this annoying ghost into the secret realm of shadows, I consume a lot. Although I can’t see it, this ancient **** who has just escaped from trouble is actually stretched.
That’s why he boldly told the other party the full name of his **** after pulling Kiel into the shadow realm for the first time a few days ago. As long as Kiel, the only human being who could touch him at that time, did not forget his **** name, He will not be forgotten and dissipated.
This is a guarantee.
Fortunately, although this guy Kiel is very difficult to deal with him, he doesn’t respect the gods very much, doesn’t respect him, and doesn’t worship him like the ancient humans did before. But fortunately, he had a good memory and firmly nailed His existence.
“Yes, a ceremony! A ceremony of shadows! Ga! You need to prepare the utensils, environment, sacrifices, and power to perform the ceremony.”
Keir squinted his eyes, and said in a blunt tone, “Why do I feel that you are whoring me for nothing?”
“How come! I am a god! This is part of the deal! Don’t feel that you, a small, impolite human, have suffered! Quack quack! Think about it, this is part of the process of acquiring abilities and weapons, a necessary process, just Just like our previous transactions.”
Kiel pondered for a moment, he did work for him before, and he obtained a new ability.
Although not very easy to use.
But at least it’s a tangible gain, isn’t it?
This kind of thing happened to him, and there is no way for others to want it.
To be honest, Keir is quite happy, after all, no one thinks that his means and strength are enough. Especially after breaking away from the Kendall County Army, the hundreds of people around him are being led by him, the pressure is really not small.
Keel was very afraid of capsizing the boat and took the whole boat down the stinking ditch. It is petty to be scolded by others, but this possible failure made him very afraid of falling on his head.
“Okay, tell me, what do I need to do?”
Keel said so.
As for the big bird **** standing on the wooden stick, a smile appeared on the bird’s face.
–
Keel fell asleep until morning.
When the others got up to prepare the food for breakfast, they saw that Knight Kiel was still sleeping beside the fading fire, and they couldn’t bear to wake him up.
In the end, Priest Batar came over to push Kiel’s shoulder before he got up after seeing that everyone was getting ready to start the day’s journey.
Kiel, who was sleeping, subconsciously reached out and grasped the hilt of the sword at his waist, and Priest Batar hurriedly said, “Warrior Kiel! Warrior Kiel! Get up! Wake up! It’s dawn, it’s time to go. ”
Hearing the sound, Keel opened his eyes.
The sky is gloomy, and although there is no rain, the sun still hasn’t come out. This is the case in spring. If there is no rain, after the rain comes, it will continue to rain.
If it is an ordinary time, when the formal farmers go to work in the fields, the thirsty land in winter needs such a nourishment.
When it rains, all the plants on the earth will flourish.
“Oh, it’s dawn. I’ll get up now, hey, everyone is up, why didn’t you call me earlier.”
Keir got up, took a small wooden basin filled with water from the priest, picked up the soaked linen cloth inside, and wiped his face.
Priest Batar smiled: “Everyone knows that you have been tired for a long time, UU Reading www.uukanshu.com allows you to take a good rest.”
“Thank you for your kindness. Let’s go, I’ll drink some water, feed the blood licking grass, and we’ll set off.”
After wiping his face, Keir put the linen cloth on the wooden basin and poured a basin of water onto the nearby fire. The clean water extinguished the charcoal, and a puff of green smoke came out.
Bloodfangste came over leading the blood licking grass: “I have fed it and brushed its fur, so it can be ridden directly.”
Priest Batar took the wooden basin: “We should thank you. Warrior, don’t you want to eat? There is some porridge ready.”
Keir was stunned for a moment, and then exhaled: “Then bring it, moisten your throat. At least the wheat porridge is much better than those monster jerky.”
After drinking the porridge, Keir got on his horse and swung his sword, loudly shouting to countless people who were looking at him: “Let’s go!”
Countless footsteps stepped up and down, the carriage was pulled by the horses, and the wheels rolled over the fine gravel on the commercial road, making a creaking sound. The countless sounds mixed together startled the birds in the distant mountains and woods, fluttering their wings and chirping.
On the other hand, Kiel rode a brisk trotting blood licking grass, came to the front of the team first, and confirmed that dozens of young people with swords were walking in front relatively neatly, which could bring enough deterrence to some hidden eyes on the road, He came to the back of the team again to confirm that there were also young people with good eyesight and physical strength here, to ensure that no one would be left behind in the team.
After walking for more than two hours, they came across the ruins of a hotel on the side of a commercial road.
The dilapidated ruins were only destroyed for less than a month, but after several rains, weeds and moss grew in many places in the ruins, and it looked like they had been abandoned for a long time.
If the distance calculation is correct, this is the trade road inn that Ms. Feneya opened before.
