Chapter 191 Endgame and Farewell (4k4)
"——Follow me..."
A low murmur sounded in the ears of "Bragly Swordsman" Bagry.
His already dull will seemed to be gradually corroded and disintegrated by some deep and dark existence, and something new was implanted in his mind and deep in his soul.
"——Return to the 'Holy Abyss' and worship me as your Lord..."
"..."
Bagry's pupils were dilated, and his already broken mental defense line finally disintegrated. It was completely eroded, engulfed and assimilated by the strange power in the low whisper of the "priest" he originally regarded as his enemy, forming a Something new, something familiar and yet foreign to Bagri.
"Holy Abyss... Shura... Holy Abyss..."
Bagri began to spit out these words vaguely.
"..."
Luo Xiu always kept the panel detection of the "violent swordsman" Bagri.
When the new status "Crazy Devoted (Stable, Permanent)" appeared in Bagry's panel status bar, Luo Xiu knew that the "Crazy Pious" brainwashing of Bagry had been successful.
Luo Xiu then took back the hand that was pressing on Bagri's forehead, took a step back, released the domain of "Holy Abyss", and at the same time completed the prayer for "Healing Technique".
Switching the "Evil Bite" in his right hand to the "White Oak Staff", Luo Xiu wielded the light group of the healing spell and treated Bagri.
A rich golden green symbolizing vitality appeared on Bagri's body. The fatal wounds on his body healed slowly, and his blood volume gradually returned to about 20%, and his status was brought back from "near death" to "seriously injured".
"Cough...cough..." Bagry coughed violently. Black blood drooped from the corners of his mouth, and he spit out several pieces of sticky, foul-smelling pus.
"I...who am I..."
Feeling that his body's condition had recovered a little, Bagri murmured to Luo Xiu with a confused look on his face.
"You are Bagri, the 'Ferocious Swordsman' Bagri Sadiman."
A calm smile appeared on Luo Xiu's face. His tone was gentle but full of unquestionable meaning, and he said to Bagry: "From now on, Bagry."
"You are the shadow of the 'Holy Abyss'. You will serve me as your master and work for me."
"..."
"Serve you...as the Lord..."
Bagry's eyes were still mixed with a trace of confusion. His current groggy will could not understand what was happening at this moment.
However, the word "holy abyss" has been firmly engraved in Bagry's mind. At the same time, during the previous battle, the ancient and sacred illusory palace was also engraved in the deepest part of Bagry like a brand. in memory.
"Violent Swordsman" Bagry's eyes gradually became fiery, and the bright scarlet in his pupils spread toward the corners of his eyes like spider web patterns.
"I see."
At a certain moment, Bagri finally "recognized" the reality he was in, and the false seeds planted in his mind began to take root and gradually replaced his true perception.
"You are... the Lord of the 'Holy Abyss'... you are the Lord..."
Bagry's face gradually showed a pious expression. He struggled to stand up, letting blood flow from the wounds on his body, and knelt in front of Luo Xiu.
"Please... please guide... guide my future path..."
"..."
When he saw Bagry showing such a state of mind, Luo Xiu knew that the brainwashing of Bagry's "crazy piety" had been completely completed.
He was silent for a long time, and then said to Bagri in a low and majestic tone:
"Listen carefully, Bagri, I will give you a new mission."
"I want you to continue to stay with 'Executioner' Kross and become my spy."
"I want you to tell Koros and report this to him - that 'Priest' came from the 'Purity Order' wandering near Songyuan City, and he killed all the Black Fangs, a total of more than ten, and even you were defeated. He killed his men and finally escaped from Songyuan City with information about him. "
"You just tell Koros what I said, whether he believes it or not. In addition, I want you to report Koros's possible actions to me regularly, and you can't expose the traces of the 'Holy Abyss' in front of anyone."
"Do you understand, Bagry?"
"..."
When Luo Xiu said this to Bagry, a confused expression flashed across Bagry's face for a moment, but he soon returned to his normal calmness and sternness.
"I understand... Lord 'Shura'... my 'Lord'..."
"——I will obey your will."
"..."
…
After issuing a new mission to the new "devotee" Bagri and taking a token from him that could prove his identity, Luo Xiu then handed over a clone of the "Mist Hidden Raven" to Bagri and confirmed the special and secret contact information with him.
After listening carefully and memorizing the instructions given by the new "Lord", Bagri dragged his scarred body and limped away from the wilderness.
Luo Xiu visually estimated that he would need about two days to cultivate. With the strong body and good recovery power of a fourth-level warrior warrior in [Ku Tu], he would soon be able to recover about 70% of the "Frenzy Sword" division's combat power, and safely left the temporary hiding place and returned to the dark hidden camp occupied by "Executioner" Koros.
At this point, the arrangements for the new shadow, the "violent swordsman" Bagri, are all in place.
Then, Luo Xiu gently raised his hand and put his fingers on his forehead, giving an order to evacuate the "Nightmare Wolf" guarding the depths of his soul.
There was a flash of light and shadow in front of his eyes, and the figure of "Nightmare Wolf" Fenrir appeared in the open space in front of Luo Xiu. It roared lowly and shook its tail excitedly at Luo Xiu.
As if he had finally finished some boring labor, Fenrir actually looked quite cheerful at this time.
Luo Xiu gently leaned down and touched its dog's head, and it once again let out a comfortable low growl of "oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo [[(oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!"] Luo Xiu gently leaned down and touched its head.
After letting Fenrir separate his soul, Luo Xiu raised his hand again, still pressing his fingers on his forehead, and used the "Ancient Heritage" skill "Prison of the Thinker".
From Luo Xiu's illusory perspective within his body, the red walls that had originally sealed off his soul once again built a strong spiritual wall, completely blocking the unscrupulous detection of the outside world.
"call……"
After completing the reconstruction of the "Prison of the Thinker", Luo Xiu finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Until now, during this trip to Songyuan City, Luo Xiu has killed twelve Black Fangs and exceeded the target of an additional mission of [Hidden Mission: The Wail of the Dirty One].
Therefore, he no longer needs to keep the hidden danger of being assassinated, and directly activates the "Prison of the Thinker", thereby completely blocking the next divination that may come from the enemy.
And the "Silver Dial Compass" carried by the "Violent Swordsman" Bagri allows Luo Xiu to reversely lock the location of the base camp of Koros and other enemies of the Dark Principality, and the initiative is firmly in his own hands. in hands!
"..." When Luo Xiu was thinking about this, he took steps at the same time and walked towards the other side, closer to the dense forest.
…
Edge of dense forest.
Luo Xiu saw a slender, bloodstained figure from a distance, half-leaning in front of a rickety tree, breathing heavily.
Intis has just finished her battle. At this time, Intis had a deep gash opened in her waist and abdomen, and bright red blood was flowing out from it, dyeing her clothes bright red.
She was obviously seriously injured, and the detection of her panel showed that Intis had been in a "near-death" state due to excessive blood loss.
But relying on the characteristics of [Red Lotus] and the ability of "flesh and blood sacrifice", Intis turned the two Black Fang corpses she killed into her own power, thus getting rid of the near death and letting her Several key attributes have been slightly improved again.
Looking at Intis, whose body was so scarred that it could almost be described as riddled with holes, Luo Xiu casually took out a "healing" holy ball of light and cast it on Intis.
A hazy layer of light gold suddenly emitted from the outline of Intis's body. The wounds on her body began to heal slowly, and her blood volume, which was almost bottomed out, was also rising towards the safe threshold.
"…Thank you for your healing, Lord."
Indis raised his head with some difficulty and expressed his gratitude to Luo Xiu.
Luo Xiu did not respond to her, but looked silently at the two large pits of blood in front of her.
There, two Black Fang corpses once lay, but they had turned into spirits and disappeared, becoming part of Intis's power.
When he was in full swing with the "violent swordsman" Bagri, he did ask Intis to "snipe" the fleeing Black Fangs who might have survived the 'Light Winged Punishment'.
It seemed that the strength of the two surviving Black Fangs was slightly beyond his expectations, but fortunately, Intis still completed the counterattack one-on-two, without causing any extra workload on himself.
If even one Black Fang was allowed to escape, Luo Xiu would have the "violent swordsman" Baglido carry out a murder and silence mission... But things did not come to this point.
Luo Xiu nodded secretly, still quite satisfied with Intis's performance.
He then took out a set of clean and gorgeous open robes from the bracelet, placed it in front of Intis, and said to her:
"Dry the blood and change your clothes, Intis."
"We should go."
"..."
"...Yes." Intis responded weakly.
Intis then gently took off her torn clothes, completely exposing her flawless skin that was originally snow-white but now covered with bloodstains. Her body was bathed in the hazy and deep blue moonlight, and at the same time she was slightly He leaned over, stretched out his slender and slender arms, picked up the spacious robe in front of him, and gently draped it around his body.
Luo Xiu watched the whole process of Intis changing clothes without hesitation. After Intis changed his clothes, he turned around and walked towards the nearest gate of Songyuan City, slowing down his pace.
Intis stood up tremblingly and followed Luo Xiu haggardly. She moved forward slowly, step by step, with heavy and firm steps.
…
Using "Arbitrator" Landauer's token, they easily passed through the city's checkpoints. Luo Xiu and Intis came to the block where the Wolfhound Tavern was located. As expected, they saw again the guard soldiers who had blocked the streets.
Several non-commissioned officers were running back and forth at this time, with tired and uneasy expressions on their faces.
This is the second time that the tavern opened by Isaac, the former "Knight of the Throne", has been attacked by "Black Fang".
But it can never happen again. For the [Supreme] people, the severity of this incident has risen to another level than before.
However, the distress belongs to those [Supreme] people, not Luo Xiu. He then came to the blockade and showed Landauer's token to the soldiers guarding the line.
Without any words, when the soldiers confirmed the authenticity of the token, they quickly made way for Luo Xiu, and stood at attention with a bang, facing the "big man" who was gradually entering the block. They looked at their backs with respectful attention.
After passing through the empty neighborhood, Luo Xiu came to the door of the "Wolfhound Tavern" and saw the owner of the tavern, the "Knight of the Throne" Isaac, as expected, sitting in his chair with a stern expression. On a bench in the tavern courtyard.
When he saw Luo Xiu and Intis returning safely, Luo Xiu vaguely noticed that Isaac seemed to be relieved, and his originally knitted brows relaxed a little.
"...You are back." Isaac said in a low voice, "It's the same as last time...you have a strong smell of blood on your body."
"Of course, I know what you did...so I won't say anything more."
Isaac's face still had that majestic, calm, and intimidating face, but he rarely said anything that could be considered gentle.
"Yes, we are back safely."
Luo Xiu smiled and said, "At the same time, I have solved the culprit. Similar attacks should not happen again in the future."
"..."
"Have you solved the culprit?"
Isaac blurted out with some surprise, "Who is that?"
"That's the 'Pishou', the 'Pishou' who belongs to the executioner of the principality."
Luo Xiu said solemnly, "I killed that beast-headed man. Here, this is a token symbolizing his identity."
As he spoke, Luo Xiu took out a thick, exquisitely engraved sword with some mottled rust from his bracelet.
"That's one of them, the 'Ferocious Swordsman'. Unfortunately, I don't know the other person's name and codename, so I have no way of knowing who it is."
Luo Xiu spread his hands helplessly and said:
"However, that is the main culprit who organized this attack. There is no doubt about it. You can trust my judgment as the Holy Judge."
"..."
"I believe you." Isaac nodded.
"For us, similar incidents happen frequently, but it is difficult for us to truly solve them completely... You killed their 'monster', and this is a favor I owe you."
With that said, Isaac reached into his arms, took out a tied bag, and threw it towards Luo Xiu.
Luo Xiu reached out to take it and weighed it, knowing that it was a purse containing many gold coins.
He heard Isaac continue: "My little friend from [Glory]... there are twenty gold coins in there, which are the cost of your stay in the hotel this time. I will return them all to you."
"Of course, this is not enough, and it is not enough to show the hospitality of our [Supreme] Honor Rider."
Isaac looked calm but said in a gentle voice: "My friend, if you come to Songyuan City again in the future, you can come to my 'Wolf Hunter Tavern' again. As long as the tavern does not close down, I will not charge you any more money." cost.”
"..."
"Thank you for your generosity." Luo Xiu nodded and said with a smile.
He originally wanted to say something else, but then he dismissed them and adopted the simplest way of thanking him.
"In fact, after killing that 'Pissou', my mission as the 'Holy Judge' in Songyuan City was officially declared completed."
"I will leave Songyuan City soon and go to other places to perform new tasks."
Luo Xiu paused and said to Isaac:
"So, please allow me to say goodbye to you in advance, worthy old knight."
"This is probably our last night in this city."
