Chapter 2158. The Murder Case of Mortis (Part 2)
2159. The Murder Case of Mortis (Part 2)
Led by his son, Tang Xiao came to a cave of Mortis.
The cave is bottomless and an ominous green light emanates from within. At his son's signal, Tang Xiao walked in front, walking down the winding stairs.
Tang Xiao clearly felt that his son was very anxious in this cave. He seemed to be very uncomfortable and suffered pain and injury with every step he took.
But the son didn't care on the surface. He just followed Tang Xiao with his hands behind his back.
We walked hundreds of meters down and finally came to a sea of green fire. This was literally the green sea of fire, because the flames in it were green, but Tang Xiao couldn't feel any temperature.
On this sea of fire, there is a platform floating on the platform, and on the platform is a trapezoidal altar. The altar is composed of several triangles, with a dazzling green flame beating in the center.
The son was obviously very afraid of these flames. He pushed Tang Xiao and said anxiously: "Go! It's right here! In the middle of the altar, if you walk over, you can see the dagger."< br>
"I...walk over?" Tang Xiao pointed to the sea of green fire. If he wanted to get to the platform, he had to step over the flames, but the environment here made it obvious that if he wanted to jump over, Human beings who resort to tricks will definitely suffer disaster.
"These flames are ineffective against people like you. These are flames that will only harm us," the son said.
"But if even you can't resist..." Tang Xiao still showed some hesitation.
"Stop talking nonsense! Come over here! I'll make sure you're fine!" the son said impatiently.
Tang Xiao finally made up his mind and stepped directly over the flames. Although he knew that nothing would happen, he still felt very uneasy at that moment. After all, it was Obi-Wan Kenobi from the light side who crossed the flames in the original plot, but now he is from the dark side. He didn't know if this green flame would react to the dark side force.
But it turned out that he was overly worried. The green flames blew over Tang Xiao's body like a cold breeze. He stepped over the flames and stood in front of the altar.
As if sensing his arrival, the triangles that formed the altar began to move on their own and reassemble themselves. The dazzling green flame in the center of the altar slowly rose, then gradually changed, and finally turned into a dagger about half a meter long!
Mortis Dagger! The only weapon known to be able to kill Tai Ren!
The origin of this dagger is unknown. Even in the setting, the origin of this dagger is not introduced. Therefore, the dagger is likely to be older than the 'Father' and may be traced back to the creation god.
This dagger is also one of the means used by the 'father' to intimidate his daughter and son. Because among the three Taiyi here, only 'Father' can pass through the green flames and get this dagger.
The Taiyi who is killed by the dagger will die completely. In the plot, the 'father' committed suicide with this dagger, causing his son to completely lose his immortal power and was killed by Anakin Skywalker.
In other words, if 'father' did not die from Mortis' dagger, then the death he mentioned was most likely just sleeping.
The moment he got the dagger, Tang Xiao had a strong impulse to kill his son directly! But his peripheral vision glanced at the sneer on the corner of his son's mouth, and he immediately gave up the idea.
The Mortis dagger can indeed kill Tai Ren, but only if you can stab them. Tang Xiao didn't think he had the ability to stab his son.
Hang the dagger on his waist, his son walked over and waved his hand gently, and the dagger immediately disappeared from Tang Xiao's body.
"It's just a little trick. The dagger is still here." The son said, "And don't worry, 'father' and daughter will never be able to detect that the dagger is on you. I will also block their perception, Let them not be able to sense your murderous intent." Tang Xiao nodded heavily with murderous intent in his eyes.
......
Next, his son kicked Tang Xiao out of his dark church.
Tang Xiao walked around aimlessly in Mortis. He just followed the light on the horizon, which should be the direction where his daughter lived.
The outside of Mortis is a huge diamond-shaped creation, and the inside is a huge space with a diameter of thousands of kilometers. Even if Tang Xiao uses the Force, he cannot travel such a distance in a short time.
After he had been running around for two days, there was a clear chirp in the sky, and a gryphon emitting holy light descended from the sky. Without any explanation, he grabbed Tang Xiao, took him up into the sky, and flapped its wings in one direction. Fly away at high speed.
"Where are you taking me?" Tang Xiao asked loudly.
"Take you to see 'father'." The daughter replied.
"Aren't you still going to let me go?" Tang Xiao asked again.
"'Father' will perform a ritual, which will explore your mysterious origin. If it is confirmed that you have no impact on the balance of the Force, then we will let you go immediately." The daughter said.
"No one has no influence on the balance of the Force. What 'Father' said is just an excuse! You just treat the lives of hundreds of billions of people in the Principality of Dawn like toys! If the dark side continues to expand because of this, then this is you The responsibility of this light messenger!" Tang Xiao said sharply.
“There’s nothing I can do about it.” The daughter’s voice deepened.
"No, you can do it." Tang Xiao said almost in a pleading tone: "Our country is facing the threat of war. I have no other request, I just hope that you let me go back, and then we will Use our own strength to resist the invaders. Even if we fight to the last person, this is what you call the law of nature. But if I am not here, do you think the death of hundreds of billions of people is still the law of nature? Are there any consequences under the influence of one of you?”
The daughter was obviously moved, and she fell silent.
The corner of Tang Xiao's mouth moved and he said again: "My son asked me to kill 'father' during the ceremony."
The daughter was startled and raised her head, "What did you say? How could he do this!"
Then she thought of something, shook her head and said: "No, you can't kill 'father', you Too weak. Unless..."
A cold dagger was pressed against her chest.
"Yes, that's the only exception." Tang Xiao said coldly, holding the Mortis dagger.
My daughter seemed to be really angry this time. She gritted her teeth and said, "Son, he actually took you to get this dagger! And he also blocked our perception!!"
< br>
"You are right, he has gone completely crazy." Tang Xiao said, "But you should also know that in the face of the lives of hundreds of billions of people in my Kingdom of Dawn, I will also go crazy."
