Chapter 228 Dedicate your loyalty to me (5k4)
From the dense dark fog, the outline of the kite-shaped shield in the hand of "Knight of the Throne" Frosa instantly emitted a fine deep scarlet light.
He waved his shield at the same time, allowing the curtain of scarlet light to form complete isolation around him.
Except for part of the death spirit that had already penetrated into the body, the rest of the black mist of death was completely blocked. The black mist diffused and floated outside the scarlet shield, and soon dissipated on its own.
After resolving the death-condensing blow of the unknown "god", Folossa was not feeling well at this moment.
At the beginning of the attack, part of the death spirit that had penetrated had begun to corrode Frosa's body. Although Frosa's body as a "Knight of the Throne" was very strong, the intense pain of his flesh corroding from within still made him frown tightly.
After the surrounding black fog dissipated, Frosa quickly looked around, but did not find the previous enemy.
The "god" had disappeared again at this time, and Frosa could not find him based on his perception. He then held a kite-shaped shield in one hand to protect his body, and in the other hand he held the double-edged giant ax tightly, and instilled the strengthened spirituality of "domination" into it, so that when the dangerous enemy appeared again, he could instantly kill him. A blow.
At this time, in the air within the stronghold, apart from his own breathing and the painful groaning of "Death Priest" Asvis behind him, Frosa did not hear any other sounds around him.
An eerie silence is filling this space. In Frosa's perception, he instinctively sensed that the surroundings were full of danger, but he could not capture the source of the danger, just like the gaze of malicious eyes hidden in the dark.
Now...Frosa suddenly felt that he still underestimated the enemy's strength.
He was under the orders of the "Grand Inquisitor", half to protect and half to monitor the actions of "Priest of Death" Asvis. The short-term asylum promised to Asvis by Baines was carried out by Frosa.
When Frosa's "eyes" planted around the "Death Secret Prayer" stronghold reported to him that the stronghold had been invaded and that something might have happened to "Death Priest" Asvis, Frosa then came from the side Ting came quickly, but fortunately he was not late.
Who did Aswith provoke... The other party contracted with a "god" and could use the technique of death enchantment... Could it be that he was a [Lost] believer like Aswes who practiced the way of "death"? Frosa thought doubtfully, and was a little confused for a moment.
But at this time, he did not dare to shift his gaze and ask Aswes, who was leaning against the wall behind him. All his attention must now be on dealing with the enemy's possible surprise attack at any time.
Suddenly, Frosa, who had unleashed all his senses, suddenly felt a deep wave coming from the left side in front of him.
The profound fluctuations contained a deeply hidden cold murderous intent, which was rapidly sweeping towards the "Priest of Death" Asvis. Frosa's pupils shrank under his mask, and he immediately slashed out his giant axe, blocking the enemy's path to attack Asvis.
The next moment, Frosa saw a small ball wrapped in black flames shooting out from the depths of the shadow in front of him.
The small ball originally shot straight towards Asvis, but was blocked by Frosa's giant axe, and instantly exploded on the blade of the axe.
--boom! ! !
Black flames suddenly burst out and overflowed, and the death fog also circled around, swallowing Frosa's figure once again.
Feeling the huge impact of the previous explosion of the black ball, Frosa's wrist holding the giant ax couldn't help but feel a little numb, and several semi-burnt wounds were burned on his body by the flames.
But this level of injury was not the most fatal. Frosa soon realized that the death fog that surged and filled the air as the black ball exploded had swallowed up his entire body.
The fog seemed to have formed some kind of illusory space of its own. Frosa could no longer feel any external conditions at all, and had completely lost any aura of "Death Priest" Asvis.
It was pitch black before his eyes, and everything in all the strongholds had completely disappeared. Frosa could only see darkness, the deep, seemingly endless darkness.
"--amber……"
Suddenly, such a sound entered Frosa's ears.
The next moment, a strong sense of crisis suddenly surged in his heart, and he turned around subconsciously, blocking the kite-shaped shield and the double-sided giant ax in front of him.
And the moment he turned around, Frosa once again saw the giant hammer that hit him before.
--boom! ! !
The giant hammer with a strong spirituality of death hit Frosa's shield once again. But Frosa, who had experience of being attacked before, was a step faster. The shield in his hand lit up with red light in advance, blocking all the death spirits that were biting and trying to invade him.
But the terrifying force exerted on the giant hammer still made Frosa's eyes widen. While he resisted this heavy blow, he seemed to hear his own bones creaking.
The terrifying force of this hammer immediately caused Frosa to take several steps back. The divine figure that attacked him gradually entered his field of vision completely, and Frosa was finally able to see his figure clearly.
It was a fog-phantom god whose whole body was wrapped in gray mist, holding a pitch-black buckler in his left hand and a pitch-black giant hammer in his right hand. He was currently suspended opposite Frosa, quietly "watching" Frosa's next move.
The round shield and giant hammer he held, and the traces of black mist lingering on them, contained extremely terrifying spirituality of death, which forced Frosa to become more cautious.
Seeing that the "god" on the opposite side seemed to be unprepared for the next attack, Folossa raised his ax across his chest, raised his kite-shaped shield, and whispered an "order" in his mouth:
"——[Follow me on the expedition]!"
The next moment, a dark red spiritual mist floated out from the surface of the kite-shaped shield in Frosa's hand, and another body that was exactly the same as "Knight of the Throne" Frosa condensed next to him. shape.
Frosa summoned his "spiritual body", and the outline of his "spiritual body" was emitting bursts of scarlet smoke, giving people the same dangerous look as "Knight of the Throne" Frosa himself. breath.
At the same time as the spiritual body was summoned, Frosa and the spiritual body disappeared from the place at the same time. They turned into two crimson light trails and attacked the "spirit" on the opposite side.
…
"...'Amber' should be enough to haunt him for a while."
In a dark corner of the stronghold, Luo Xiu finally emerged from the shadows, murmuring.
After "Throne Knight" Frosa appeared, Luo Xiu immediately hid in the darkness, leaving only "Ember Wolf King" Fenrir and "Void Guardian" Amber to launch a tentative attack on Frosa.
Frosa was very strong. Although Luo Xiu had no interaction with him in his previous life, he had heard some things about him from other [Supreme] destiny players.
Coupled with the previous panel detection of Folossa when he appeared, Luo Xiu had quickly determined the strength of Folossa.
If it were a one-on-one fight, Luo Xiu would be sure to defeat him, but it would also take a lot of time.
But this is not a situation that can delay time. Now that Frosa has appeared, it means that the [Supreme] people in the side court have discovered something strange here. If he fails to deal with Frosa quickly, he will inevitably cause more unnecessary entanglements.
Luo Xiu thought about this quickly, and he was very clear about the overall situation.
He then walked forward quickly, and at the same time looked at the dark fog filled by the "Guardian of Illusion" amber beside him.
At this time, Frosa and Amber's figures had disappeared into the thick fog.
Amber has used his power as the "Creator of Illusion" as the "Guardian of Illusion" to pull Flora into the realm of illusion he created. Although it may be difficult for Amber and Frosa to fight alone, as long as Frosa does not defeat him in that realm of illusion, he will not be able to escape from that space, and he will not be able to stop his next actions.
While thinking about it, Luo Xiu walked to the wall deep in the stronghold and walked in front of "Death Priest" Asvis.
At this time, Aswes was still half-lying at the base of the wall. The long and massive blood loss from his broken arm had made him extremely weak. He looked at the mysterious intruder in black robes and a black mask in front of him. The expression on his face was full of helplessness and despair.
At this time, Aswes, after witnessing the attack of the suspected "god" on Frosa, his hanging heart finally died.
That is undoubtedly the real "god", and a very high-ranking "god"! He can create illusions, and the countless death curse bombardments he created before were actually blocked by him and turned into his own power...
That is a power that only the gods of the "False" series have. As a [Lost] believer, Asvis knows this very clearly, but this type of god is extremely rare. In Asvis's extraordinary career of hundreds of years, I've only seen it in person three times.
Suddenly, Asvis recalled that his teacher had told him not long ago that at the antiquities auction held at the "Black Sword Mansion" in Matsubara Castle, there had been items from "False Pikara" Broken God’s Heart…
Is that "false Vikara"? Aswes thought with horror, thinking that he might be facing the terrifying "Chaos God", Aswes's face couldn't help but become a little distorted.
But he quickly denied such a conjecture, because the "god" summoned by the enemy in front of him had not yet reached such a high level, otherwise it would have been the "Knight of the Throne" Frosa who was only the fourth-level destiny at the moment of being attacked. It's time to turn into ashes.
What's more, the enemy in front of him, the mysterious leader of the invaders, is only at the "fourth level of destiny" spiritual level. Even if the ancient chaos god personally favors him, his weak body that has not yet become a saint cannot bear the same "chaos". "The terrifying spiritual pressure of the personal divine contract...
Aswiss was also thinking rapidly in his mind, but it was too late to think about it now. The enemy, dressed in pitch black, had now walked up to Asvis. Under the horrified and desperate gaze of Aswes, Luo Xiu slowly raised his hand and pressed his palm on Aswes' wet forehead.
"——This is the kindness of 'Holy Abyss', this is the mercy of 'Shura'..."
"——You are the sinner who has gone astray, and I am the beacon that guides the way..."
Luo Xiu chanted in a low voice, and deep light patterns began to flow in his pupils, and a golden hazy light also appeared in his right hand.
"——Follow me..."
"——Return to the 'Holy Abyss' and worship me as your Lord..."
"..."
While Luo Xiu was chanting in a low voice, Aswes's eyes began to gradually become distracted, and the ferocious expression on his face gradually faded, turning into peaceful and even a little dazed.
Aswes felt that something was pouring into his mind at this time, breaking through the barrier of his soul and invading the depths of his soul.
His will is gradually fading and dying. And something else is replacing it, replacing his personality, guiding his desires, thus completely depriving him of his self.
"No...no..." Aswes was afraid. He was deeply afraid of the abnormality of his soul.
But Aswes could not change this. He could only feel the approach of "death" in pain and despair. His original self and personality were heading towards inevitable decline, and at the same time, he was reborn from the corpse of the soul. A new self and personality.
"No..." Aswes weakly uttered the last word of rejection, and the pupil of his only eye was completely dilated.
Until he opened his eyes again and looked at the "enemy" in front of him.
The flame of hatred in his heart had long been extinguished, replaced by an infinite sense of respect for the person in front of him, and a strong pursuit of something strange and familiar, called the "Holy Abyss".
"Holy Abyss..."
Aswes murmured, a trace of imperceptible deep purple light flowed in his pupils, and this light disappeared in an instant.
"You are my new apostle, Aswith."
After the specific entry "Crazy Devotee (Stable, Permanent)" appeared in Asvis's status panel, Luo Xiu's hand left Asvis's forehead and spoke in a low and majestic voice said to him.
"I am...the Holy Abyss...the apostle..."
Aswiss was still murmuring, but the dazed expression on his face gradually faded away, turning to a calmness similar to his age, and the depth in his eyes also returned.
He raised his head and looked at Luo Xiu, who was wearing a black-striped puppet in front of him, and said slowly: "You are the Lord of the 'Holy Abyss' and my... new 'Lord'..."
Aswes struggled to stand up, enduring the severe pain in his broken arm, and knelt down to Luo Xiu.
"Listen carefully, Aswes."
Feeling the breath that was constantly blowing in the black mist behind him, "Knight of the Throne" Frosa seemed to be about to break through the blockade of the illusion. Luo Xiu then briefly ordered Asvis: "From now on Afterwards, you are the shadow of my ‘Holy Abyss’, Asvis.”
"You still stay here, stay in the 'Prayer of Death', and be my eyes. In addition, you have sworn allegiance to the [Supreme] side court before, and there is no need to terminate this allegiance. I also need you to monitor the people over there. movement."
"Did you hear that clearly, Aswith?"
"..."
"I understand, Lord."
Asweis knelt on the ground again, bowed to Luo Xiu and said, "I will stay in the 'Prayers of Death' and will maintain my allegiance to the 'Bianting'... Everything will follow your will, but I truly respect , The only one who is truly loyal is 'Shengyuan', and you are the only one..."
"Very good." Luo Xiu nodded.
"Then I expect you to show me this loyalty."
After saying that, Luo Xiu's figure disappeared backwards, and soon disappeared from Asvis's sight.
Aswes was still prostrate, looking at the empty darkness in front of him in a daze, as if nothing had happened here.
And right in front of him, the originally permeating black mist also shook violently at the next moment. The mist filled with the spirit of death dissipated, and "Knight of the Throne" Frosa finally appeared again, but his condition at this time seemed quite embarrassing.
When he was in the "illusion" realm before, he and his "spiritual body" finally gained the upper hand in the fierce battle with the "god". They were able to defeat the god very quickly. From that illusion, Get out of the field.
But the "god" disappeared in the next moment, and the entire field also dissipated at the same time, and Frosa returned to the familiar real environment.
The moment he returned to reality, the first thing Frosa did was to see if Asvis, the "priest of death" in the corner, was still alive.
At this time, Aswes was kneeling on the ground, vomiting blood. Apart from the fact that the blood loss from his broken arm had accumulated all over the cracks in the wall, his pale and blood-smeared face was lifeless, and the multiple fatal injuries on his body had begun to worsen, Asvis did not seem to have any life-threatening injuries. .
"...Bah." Frosa spat out a contemptuous voice from under his mask. He casually took out a bottle of healing potion from his arms, walked over to Asvis, unscrewed the cork cap of the potion bottle, and poured all the potion in the bottle onto Aswith's head.
The pure healing potion treated the injuries, and the wounds on Asvis's body began to heal quickly. After seeing that Aswith's condition had recovered somewhat, Frosa said coldly:
"I don't know who you provoked to let a transcendent being who can contract a 'god' hunt you down like this."
"Asvis, that may be a [Lost] believer who believes in 'death' like you. Do you have any clues about this?"
"..."
Aswes lowered his head, and Frosa could not see the expression on his face. He could only hear his low and weak voice saying:
"...I don't know, Lord Frosa."
"Since he is a fellow practitioner of the 'Death' way, he may have come to avenge the 'Death Teller' Gray. But, you know, I leaked the information about Gray's hiding place to you. , only you people in the 'Bianting' know."
"Are you doubting us?" Frosa's tone changed instantly. He raised the giant ax in his hand, and the ax blade was already placed on Asvis's neck. "But don't forget, without the protection of our 'side court', You are a corpse now."
"Who knows...cough cough..." Aswes coughed twice, and then continued in his weak and deep voice, "I'm just stating possible facts."
"..." Frosa was silent. After calming down and thinking about it, he realized that the "fact" Asvis said was indeed one in ten thousand.
If someone from the "Bianting" hadn't leaked this information, then the information about Asvis's hideout would not have been leaked to other places.
In addition to avenging "Death Teller" Gray, there should also be no [Lost] believers who can contract with the "Death" god to kill Asvis... With these thoughts in Frosa's mind, he then He slowly put down the giant ax in his hand and said to Asvis:
"If this is the case, I will personally find out the traitors within us."
"But now, Aswith. Because of this incident, we need to re-evaluate whether we need to continue to provide you with asylum."
"You'd better prepare what we need as soon as possible, Asvis. Give us the distribution map of the 'Death Secret Prayer''s strongholds as soon as possible, so that we can still recognize you as our loyal ally."
"Yes, yes... Lord Frosa."
Asvis nodded and said to Frosa without hesitation:
"I have already prepared it, Lord Frosa. The map is in the deepest room. You can take it away at any time."
