The scene in front of Brian instantly completed a shocking transformation. It was not just an ordinary change on the mage's face, but more like a complete reshaping of his appearance.
When the mask was taken off, even though he was mentally prepared, Brian was still stunned.
Just like he saw it for the first time a few years ago.
The face of the mage in front of him is no longer the familiar human appearance, but the appearance of a monster.
The spider's legs were squirming on his face, and the countless thin legs were like living parasites, densely covering every inch of his skin.
They squirmed and twisted crazily, seeming to be devouring the spider wizard's sanity.
This is not a human face at all, it is a devil's face, full of weirdness and ugliness.
Brian's eyes were deeply attracted by these wriggling spider legs, and he could not look away.
He felt a strong nausea welling up in his heart, as if all the substances in his stomach were surging and trying to break through the defense line.
He hurriedly stretched out his trembling hands to cover his mouth, trying to suppress the strong urge to vomit.
The air around him seemed to freeze, leaving Brian and his urge to vomit fighting in the small space.
His heartbeat rang in his ears, making him more aware of his fear and shock.
This scene is too weird and terrifying, and it is impossible to imagine that this is a human face.
This makes people feel a sense of fear of monsters and devils, as if this is a scene in a nightmare.
Deep in Brian's heart, he still retains the shock he felt when he saw the face of the spider wizard for the first time.
At that time, his strength had not yet broken through to the second level. Facing that mysterious power was almost like a mortal facing a god.
Even in the face of unknown power, his reason was as firm as a rock, and he quickly regained his composure.
This time the situation is completely different.
His strength has risen to the mid-level legendary level, and the mental resistance given to him by the psychic is even more incredible.
Having many special abilities, when he faced the face of the spider wizard again, his reaction was even more intense than the first time.
He felt unprecedented fear and uneasiness. The power seemed to have surpassed the control of the spider wizard and became an uncontrollable terrifying existence.
The surrounding atmosphere seemed to have solidified, and an oppressive silence filled the air.
The figure of the spider wizard looms in the darkness, and his face seems to be hidden in the endless darkness, making it impossible to see his true face.
The terrifying power radiated from the spider wizard, as if it had transcended the limitations of time and space, directly impacting Brian's mind.
In this case, Brian could only mobilize his spiritual energy and open the psychic barrier to protect himself from harm. At the same time, he silently told himself that he needed to stay calm and deal with the incredible scene in front of him.
He tried his best to sound normal, rather than pity or sympathy, and said:
“I think I can probably understand your anger, Yalinfan, but as a friend, I think you should first Calm down, okay?”
An invisible spiritual energy wave suddenly spread around. Under the influence of this spiritual energy, the spider wizard gradually regained some sanity.
He breathed deeply, nodded heavily, leaned over to pick up the mask that fell on the ground, and put it on his face again.
This mask seemed to have some magical power. Once he put it on, he regained his original calm and self-possessed state.
The spider wizard apologized sincerely to Brian, his voice full of self-blame and regret: "I'm sorry, I was too emotional just now."
Brian responded. Forced a smile, he replied:
"I can understand, but... I find it surprising that your mood swings are indeed too great. I still remember that when we first met, you couldn't even talk to her. You dare not mention her name, but this time, you dare to call her by her name so boldly, curse her, and despise her, so you are not afraid..."
"Because I have nothing to fear. , I don’t care about anything anymore.” There was a kind of determination in the spider wizard’s voice.
His eyes became dark again, as if he was trapped in a distant memory.
After a long time, the spider wizard sighed deeply and continued: "Actually, in the ancient city of Orens, there are not just a few people who despise Rose like me. Their number may exceed Your imagination. Although we are only an absolute minority in the city, our hatred and contempt are like burning flames, our hearts are closely connected for different reasons, but this common passion is. Like an invisible bond, we find the reason and motivation to live in this hellish environment."
His voice is full of complex emotions, every word is there. Telling about his pain and struggle.
Then, the spider wizard bowed deeply and expressed his sincerity to Brian:
"Please forgive my silence, Brian, about who exactly these 'we' include. , I can’t reveal it to you yet. Please understand that this is for survival, but also for waiting for a good opportunity for revenge. In order to overthrow the brutal rule of the giant ghost spider, secrecy is a necessary strategy.”
His words were filled with heaviness and anxiety.
Brian naturally understands this dilemma, and besides, he has no interest in knowing.
So, he nodded and said: "I can understand your situation, but I am just an outsider and not a member of your dark elves. Why are you confiding this to me?"
Hearing this, the spider wizard's tone became excited.
He paused hard on the magic crutch in his hand, and the eight creepy spider legs seemed to be playing a tragic symphony, tapping the ground and making a dull echo.
Then, he quickly regained his composure and began to speak in a passionate speech: "Brian, you are so humble. From the moment we first met, I have seen that you are extraordinary. Are you just Didn't you find out? In fact, when you came to the Dark Territory, you had inadvertently brought changes to this city that was on the verge of collapse.
Recalling that bloody sacrifice, you successfully escaped from Gu'ao. The escape from Lens City is a miracle that even we dare not imagine, as well as the awakening of the dark girl, and the mysterious oracle descended by the ghost spider. These events all revolve around you, and every step you take is for The future of this city guides the direction.
To me, you are the symbol of hope for the future of Ancient Orens, the oldest dark elf city. You are the key to our fight against the ghost spiders. Are these powerful people? Isn’t the strong evidence enough to prove your importance?”
“These things…” Brian frowned slightly, feeling a little helpless.
Although the words of the spider wizard Yalinfan are accurate, they cannot directly prove that he is the savior of ancient Orens City.
He was about to open his mouth to defend, but was interrupted by the spider wizard's firm eyes and tone.
“Please listen to me, Brian.”
The spider wizard’s voice was filled with a hint of pleading, “The reason why I lend a helping hand to help you through the crisis is precisely to express my gratitude to you. You ask for help.”
His voice slipped like silk, carrying an ancient and mysterious rhythm. (End of this chapter)
