Three skeletons sat around two black stones placed on the snow, and on the stones were engraved the language of the devil - death.
The three skeletons are undead creatures, not afraid of the cold and snowy weather. They must have been sitting here for a long time, the shoulders of their clothes and their bare skulls were covered with a layer of snow.
Under normal circumstances, when encountering this kind of thing, Xia De would choose to go around, but today he came here to find clues, so he walked over, but the skeletons ignored him, but stared at the half-covered corpse on the snow. Covered with two black stones.
[Undead, but corrupted by demons, the soul is imprisoned in the bones. 】
"She" reminded softly, Shade stopped walking with a suitcase:
"Gentlemen, what are you doing?"
After asking the question, I got the answer. Among the three skeletons, the jaw of the one in the dark red clothes moves up and down;
"We're allocating death quotas."
"What's the meaning?"
The skeleton in black said:
"We are hunters from a nearby village. When we entered this forest to hunt a year ago, we came here after chasing a pheasant. The three of us shot at the pheasant hiding in the bushes. When we searched for the past, we found the pheasant lying on top of a man. Foot. We threatened to hand over our prey, and so we became like this."
When he spoke, there was an air of an opera monologue.
"Aren't you already dead?"
Shad asked again, and the last skeleton in dark blue said:
"The man left us dead, but couldn't leave us completely. He said that since we like to suspect that others have taken our things, then let us decide who it belongs to. He turned the pheasant into two a stone, which would allow two of us to die outright, leaving one to continue to be tortured."
When the three skeletons were talking, they never looked at Xia De, but stared at the two stones, as if they were afraid of being taken away by their companions:
"So, we're trying to allocate death quotas."
"Um…"
This kind of evil curse is indeed like the handwriting of the stone mirror demon-Goethe:
"So, you've been stalemate with each other for a year?"
"Yes."
The skeleton in black clothes who was still the first to speak said:
"We balance each other and restrain each other. Neither of us dares to reach out to the stone first, otherwise we will be attacked by the other two. Now we are competing to see who is more patient, but the good news is that we all have infinite lives to go. wait."
This sentence intensifies the sense of dark humor:
"Have you ever thought that your stalemate and waiting are part of eternal torture?"
The skull in the crimson clothes said:
"Of course we know, but so what? Who can selflessly dedicate themselves and let the other two go?"
There were three skeletons, and none of them took their eye sockets away from the two stones in the snow during this period.
"Do you want me to help you?"
Xia De proposed in the snow, but the three skeletons probably misunderstood what he meant. The black-clothed skeleton first said:
"I have heirloom treasures in my family. Help me entangle one of them, and it's all yours."
Red Skull said:
"Don't trust his treasure, it's just a cheap clay pot. I have beautiful daughters, help me wrap one of them up, she's yours."
The blue-clothed skull finally said:
"Oh, sir, his daughter is stronger than a wild boar, more savage than a brown bear. I have the gift of a sharpshooter, help me entangle one of them, and I will give you part of my soul."
"This is a lie. If he had outstanding talent, he would not have come here to hunt with us. Don't believe his lies, sir, what I offered is the most valuable gift."
Black Skull said again
Dao, and then the three skeletons asked together:
"Wealth, beauty and power, choose one of the three?"
Xia De asked, still holding the suitcase in his left hand, while the silver thunder in his right hand exploded:
"How about this, three, I don't want all of them!"
Suddenly, the thunderbolt flashed across, and the thunder gun directly hit the center of the three skeletons at close range. With the explosion of stones, snowflakes and soil, the three skeletons were all ejected. At the same time, a large crater was blown out of the ground, and the silver arc was still dancing on the snow surface.
In the big pit on the ground, there are dozens of skeletons like them lying:
"It's the common sense of ring warlocks not to make deals with demons; it's another common sense not to trade with things corrupted by demons."
The skeletons picked up their broken limbs and spliced them together, struggling to stand up from the snow. Some black shadows slid quickly under the snow layer, divided into three strands and rushed into the three skeletons. As a result, strange black stones clinged to the bones, and six black flames appeared in their eye sockets.
A stone sickle appeared on the right hand of the black-clothed skeleton, and the red-clothed skeleton held up his right hand, and mud projectiles emerged in his palm. The blue-clothed skeleton became bigger and full of pressure.
While they were feeling the power, Shad opened the suitcase and took out one of the small bottles. Open the bottle stopper and reach out to hook, the spell to control the flow of water makes the holy water in the bottle fly to Xia De in strands like flying snakes. And as he opened his mouth and breathed forward slightly, the holy water in front of him slowly froze in the snow, forming a complete ice spear:
"I haven't made a move yet, how dare you resist?"
The black-clothed skeleton was the fastest, as if gliding against the snow, and smashed at Xia De with a sickle in his hand. But Xia De easily dodged it by turning sideways, and then, like dancing with a sword, sliced off its skull with the ice spear backhand. Break off a third of the ice spear, stab it into its left eye socket, and then continue forward.
His movements in the snow were smooth and smooth, and the confrontation between the two sides did not exceed two seconds.
Then came the huge blue-clothed skeleton, which came to Xia De like a wild bear charging. But Xia De didn't think about dodging, and bent slightly to lower his center of gravity. With a serious expression on his face, he activated the spell "Power of the Red Dragon", and directly collided with the blue-clothed skull:
"Heh!"
After resisting with the strength of the wind, Xia De kicked the skeleton over:
"How dare you resist?"
Xia De held up the ice spear and pierced it through its left eye socket, then broke it inside the skull of the blue-clothed skull, and kicked the immobile skeleton aside.
Slightly turned his head to avoid the black mud bomb flying in front of him, weighed the last piece of ice spear left in his hand, moved his right foot back, raised his left foot, tilted his body backwards, raised his right hand high and twisted his waist Throw forward.
As the ice streaked across the snow-falling forest, amid the sound of piercing the air, the holy water ice spear pierced the right eye socket of the red-clothed skull, and then flew back with it. It was nailed to the pine tree with a bang, and the fallen branches were covered with snow, and with a bang, the skeleton was directly buried in the snowdrift.
The wind brought snow through the gloomy forest, Xia De, who was standing in the open space beside the path, snorted, clapped his hands, turned around and picked up his suitcase again. Just as he was thinking of continuing to walk towards the manor not far away, applause came from behind him.
Xia De frowned and turned to look, only to see "Ston Orson Foot" wearing a brown robe and black boots, walking out of the forest while clapping:
"It's really good, it's really good."
But this is definitely not Stone Oxenfurt. Although the two of them look exactly the same, the casual smile on his face and the slick tone at this time are not like Stone Oxenfurt's more People like robbers can show it. The eyes, which also appeared pure black during the day, and the slightly dull skin directly pointed out what was in front of him.
[The devil body. 】
In this way, at this somewhat unexpected time and place, Shad met the demon of Randall Valley for the first time.
"No, unless burning
Divinity, I don't have any confidence to defeat it now. "
Xia De is very clear about this point, but the doctor said that the opponent is the kind of enemy among knights who will appear in the last checkpoint before defeating the devil.
"Oxenfurt? No, you're not him."
Xia De said, still carrying his own suitcase in his left hand, his right hand reached into his pocket, and a silver cross pendant with a silver chain was taken out by Xia De~www.mtlnovel.com~ The end of the cross is extremely thin and sharp, while the cross There is a long silver snake hovering around itself, and the head of the long snake is dotted with a ruby that seems to be shining in the snow.
The keeper-level relic [Cross of Blasphemy] pierces the chest of an extraordinary humanoid creature, absorbs and imprisons the opponent's soul, and can even absorb the soul into one's own body to form a special blasphemy rune.
Xia De raised the relic in his hand to the devil, and the latter stopped slowly, but the smile on his face did not change at all:
"Silver cross? It seems that you have already found out my identity."
"Since I dare to accept Stone Oxenfurt's commission, I naturally won't do nothing to investigate. I'm not interested in you, and I'm even less interested in your relationship with Stone Oxenfurt. I just want to Complete the commission and get Oxenfurt's reward."
The demon folded his arms in front of his chest and looked up at Shad slightly in the snow. This posture was very similar to the real Oxenfurt:
"Alien Ring Warlock, but you are not as loyal as you say. Since you promised to help Stone Oxenfurt get those three items, why did you keep it from him and took Hela Oxenfurt commission?"
Sure enough, the devil knew what happened in that manor. Fortunately, Dr. Schneider had already told Shad about what might happen. Shad was not particularly surprised by this:
"When a beautiful woman asks me for help, even takes my hand to touch her chest, and I think I can do it, then I have no reason not to say yes to her."
