Chapter 335 Death's Question
"No, Adeleka! No!"
Velino stretched out his hand towards the gradually disappearing figure, as if he wanted to grab something, but nothing was left.
The only thing that caught his eyes was the blazing, rising fire, and the dark figure standing on the spot, just watching all this with cold eyes.
"...It really smells of 'betrayal'."
Luo Xiu looked at Velino, the corners of his mouth under his black-striped face slightly raised in a cold arc, and turned to look at Tatya, the "Devil of Blasphemy" behind him.
The illusory barrier created by the Guardian of Illusion was lifted, and Tatya slowly descended from mid-air and came to Luo Xiu's side.
"What's wrong?" He asked with a smile, looking at Luo Xiu with charming eyes.
"That 'hidden elder'...is his name Adeleka? I'll leave him to you, Tatia."
Luo Xiu said with a smile and a gentle voice: "Play with him as you like, but - be careful not to affect the streets."
"..."
"I'm actually more curious about this side, 'Lord'~"
A smile appeared on Tatya's pretty face, and she said in a somewhat resentful tone: "I'm actually more curious about how you plan to deal with this 'Sequencer'..."
Lord... Luo Xiu's mouth twitched slightly under his mask.
"Tatya."
Luo Xiu emphasized his tone, and there was something undeniable in his words.
Tatya then stopped saying anything, just smacked her lips and said somewhat reluctantly:
"Okay, 'Lord'~"
"I'll come back when I solve the problem. Hey, I hope he can hold on for a little longer~"
After saying that, his glowing eyes glanced at Velino for the last time, and the pair of wings condensed with black light behind him suddenly unfolded and flew out of the window.
Beside Luo Xiu, "Ember Wolf King" Fenrir also followed him out of the window and disappeared in the smoke that towered into the sky.
……
Valino Bakar, he watched the whole process of the dialogue between the "blasphemous demon" and the so-called "Lord" in his mouth.
Velino felt deeply humiliated——
The other party seemed not to take him seriously from the beginning to the end, and even...the "uninvited guest" even asked a 'god' and a 'summoned beast' to withdraw from surrounding him, as if he was like a corpse in their eyes. There is no need to treat it with caution at all...
Velino felt his eyes bursting, but when the "uninvited guest" was talking to the "god" he summoned, Velino still didn't say a word.
He was indeed angry, but...
While he was looking at the other person with wide eyes, the dark figure opposite finally turned his head and looked at him.
"Sorry to keep you waiting."
Luo Xiu politely apologized to Velino.
At the same time, he bowed slightly and saluted Velino - this was the etiquette that the common people of the empire, and even the small noble class, should pay to the big nobles.
When Velino watched the other person doing this, he didn't feel that sense of respect. On the contrary - he felt a sense of creepiness.
"Who are you..."
He looked at Luo Xiu and carefully stepped back step by step. At the same time, he watched him warily and asked him.
"We?"
Seeing Velino's retreat, Luo Xiu also took steps towards him, and at the same time answered him in a calm tone——
"We are the 'Holy Abyss', you can call me 'Shura', respected little Bakar."
Holy Abyss...what is that? Never heard of this name...
Velino racked his brains to recall and was convinced that he had not done anything to offend the other party, so he then asked tentatively:
"I shouldn't have offended you, 'Shura'... So, why are you..."
"You are the 'Sequler', right?"
Looking directly at Velino, Luo Xiu suddenly smiled, interrupted him and said:
"I can tell you - I have been commissioned to kill you, 'Velino Bakar', and it will give me a generous reward."
The commission of a task is also considered a commission... Luo Xiu cursed at the same time.
But when Velino heard this, the tense muscles on his face suddenly relaxed.
——It turns out that someone paid for the murder!
From what Velino heard, the other party didn't seem to have any reason to kill him.
Then there is still room for change——
"Reward?"
A forced friendly smile appeared on Velino's face, "Huh... just for this? Now that you know my real name... 'Shura', I can give you more!"
"Tell me, who hired you? And who told you about the 'Sequlayer'? This information can be clearly priced, and I will never treat you badly——"
Uh...who hired me...panel?
Luo Xiu looked at Velino who was still struggling to survive, and felt inexplicably pitiful about him...
——It’s so stupid and pitiful.
Until now, he finally understood why Velino, who was clearly the leader of the "Order Killers" in Songyuan City, left no records in his previous life.
Because of his character... As the [Supreme], he really lacks the courage and courage to override and transcend everything, as well as the ability to remain calm in the face of desperate situations.
Including when "Hidden Elder" Adeleka chose to run away, Velino showed panic that was inappropriate for his identity and time... To be honest, according to Luo Xiu's intuitive judgment of him, if he really started to cause trouble, It really can't make any waves.
And I have directly exposed his identity as the "Sequler" - even if someone does hire him, the most likely one is the [Supreme] himself, just like the illegal fates raised by Lord Gawain in the "Black Sword Mansion" Extraordinary people and saints often use it in these situations.
But Velino obviously doesn't have this consciousness. His focus is entirely on whether "Shura" is hired...
But Luo Xiu didn't care about this. He looked at Velino's hopeful face through the mask, and his mind changed slightly. There were already more places where he could make use of this "little Bakar"——
"Hey, tell me."
Luo Xiu was still approaching Velino step by step, and asked him at the same time, "What other price can you give?"
——He can indeed negotiate!
A happy expression appeared on Velino's face. He still remained wary of "Shura" while tentatively offering his price:
"First of all - let me go, and I will give you 10,000 gold coins as a reward. What do you think?"
Ten thousand gold coins...Luo Xiu's eyes twitched.
When he was still in his second life, his savings already amounted to 100,000 gold coins!
"Hey, you are the blood descendant of Marquis Bakar, your life is only worth ten thousand?"
Luo Xiu's cold, indifferent voice came from under the mask. The staff he held tightly in his right hand emitted bursts of black light, pointing in the direction of Velino - "No, no! One hundred thousand, one hundred thousand!"
Velino waved his hands wildly in panic, yelled in a vague tone, and stepped back at the same time.
Bang! Suddenly, Velino's back hit the wall, making a dull sound, and the smoke and dust fell from the ceiling.
There was no way to retreat... Velino watched the other party continue to approach, still looking forward to the other party's response to the previous price.
"One hundred thousand..."
Luo Xiu said in a playful tone, "This is indeed a large number... but you can come up with more, right?"
"We can talk... we can talk!"
If the other party said this, in Velino's eyes, that was a sign that they could talk!
"One hundred thousand is not enough...150,000, no, two hundred thousand! This is already a quite large number!"
"If you take these two hundred thousand gold coins and leave - no matter where you go, this will be money you can't spend in your lifetime! You can enjoy it without any worries!"
Uh...two hundred thousand...
Luo Xiu couldn't help but fell into deep thought, thinking that he could get three two hundred thousand a year just from bank dividends.
"...?"
He thought that the price he offered was enough to drive anyone crazy, but Velino discovered that the other party still seemed unmoved and maintained a heart-shaking silence——
Is the price still not enough... not even 200,000 gold coins? But this is all the cash he can get!
Just as his pupils were guessing, Villino suddenly heard that the "Shura" on the opposite side finally spoke:
"You are a blood descendant of Marquis Bakar... Two hundred thousand gold coins? Your life is too cheap."
"Wait a minute -" Velino still wanted to fight for it, but the "Shura" in front of him had already raised his staff towards him, and the deep black light flowing on it spurted out at the same time!
Hoo ho ho! Three rays of light lingered with the aura of death, roaring towards Velino!
Unexpectedly, the other party would suddenly attack. A look of panic flashed across Velino's face, and he issued an "order" towards the three death lights:
"——[Falling]!"
——Buzz! Visible to the naked eye, the surface of the three light surges suddenly emitted extremely chaotic fluctuations. The trajectory that originally flew straight towards Velino showed faint signs of bending and falling!
However, suddenly, the black fog on the surface of the three light surges suddenly dissipated, revealing the deep black light that was constantly expanding inside, and Velino felt a chill from it——
He finally recognized it - it was the "Dead Soul"! And he is a "dead spirit" with a very high status!
The previous "order" also acted on the "dead spirits", but not the three flying towards him now...
Is this still the aggregated undead? Some of the weak undead souls affected by the "Edict" were actually peeled off halfway? !
Velinor's thoughts were spinning. He figured out the reason why his "edict" did not fully take effect this time, but it was too late——
"——Hiss!!!"
The undead have rushed towards Velino's body, and the spirituality of death suddenly covered the outline of Velino's body with a thin veil. Traces of dark erosion have spread like vines on the surface of his body. .
"——[Retreat..."
Verino's eyes flashed red, and he wanted to issue a new "edict", but was interrupted by another huge momentum!
--boom! ! !
A heavy hammer slammed down from mid-air, and Velino could only see the gray mist in front of him, and his whole body was hammered into the floor!
Click! Even the floor could not withstand such a huge impact and kept collapsing downwards. Velino suddenly felt a sense of weightlessness, followed by a heavy roar——
Bang! He fell heavily to another piece of ground, and the sharp pain that came from his back made Velino almost bite off his tongue in pain.
At this moment, he finally saw clearly what it was that hit him hard just now——
The amber stone shrouded in the gray mist is actually another bottle of "god"!
"Guardian of Illusion" Amber gave him a heavy blow. At this time, he stretched out five amber-condensed fingers in his left hand and pressed Velino's head and hair to the ground.
In this position, he could no longer move at all, and his vision was locked. He could only look up from the bottom to the direction where "Shura" was coming.
Velino's eyes looked at that "Shura" again, filled with fear again.
He watched "Shura" slowly fly down from the huge hole that had just been smashed in mid-air. A spiraling and twisted sharp horn had already grown on the side of his forehead, and behind him spread out a pair of weapons similar to those of the "blasphemy demon" Tati. Chaos wings of the same style as Ya.
Luo Xiu, who appeared in the form of "Devil Incarnation", looked at Velino, who was obviously feeling a strong sense of fear, and said without any emotion in his voice:
"Velino Bakar—"
"Your money is not attractive to me at all. I only ask you one question."
"..."
Ask...ask me a question...?
Velino struggled to look at "Shura", and the fire of hope that had been extinguished in his heart was rekindled at this time.
He doesn't really want to kill me... If he really wanted to kill me, he wouldn't let me make a price!
Now he wants to ask me questions... and that answer is what he really wants!
Velino was thinking about this, and he heard "Shura" ask him:
"Tell me - as the 'Order Killer', who is your first line in the Imperial Capital?"
"...!"
When "Shura" asked such a question, Velino's heart couldn't help but "thump".
"No, no...I can't say..."
His face suddenly showed great fear, and the eyes he looked at Luo Xiu were visibly trembling.
Can't say? Is there anything that can't be said that he is under some kind of "curse"?
Just like the former "Bishop of the Undead" Passaro and "Executioner" Kross set the [Death Binding Curse] and [Shadow Heart Devouring] on "The Head" Lias at the same time, Velino Is there any curse on him that "explodes when the true name of the superior is spoken"?
Luo Xiu thought to himself, while he was searching Villino's panel for similar "curses", he also squatted down, his face very close to Villino and said:
"Velino Bakar, I'm more interested-"
"Say that name, and I might be able to protect you. But if you don't say it... you know the result."
"I...I..." Velino's voice was still trembling, and the trembling became more violent.
Suddenly, it was as if he had made some kind of determination——
"His name is Harkas... Harkaswell No...!"
"——Uhhh!!!"
As soon as Velino finished saying the prefix of that name, his eyes suddenly swelled like bulging blood bags!
——Bang!
At the next moment, Velino's head exploded!
All kinds of turbid and sticky substances splashed all over the floor.
They squirmed like maggots for a while, and then finally turned into smelly smoke and melted into a pool of blood.
