The head was thrown onto a table, rolled around a few times, and finally stopped.
Alchemist Kakata put away the pair of black mechanical arms. In front of everyone, it slowly retracted into Kakata's sleeves like a spiritual snake, and then Kakata circled the table. Everyone said: "My mission is completed."
Then everyone¡¯s eyes turned to the head on the table.
Weeds and mud covered this once noble cheek, and there was even a piece of black mud stuck to one side of the eye, as if it had rolled through the dirtiest muddy water. In the plane of the undead, even the lowest skeleton would probably not choose such a skull as the place to place the soul fire.
"Jose? I didn't expect him to fall into this situation," Zhuo Dong also said in surprise.
"This is not in our plan," Cardinal Jennings said. "If he dies, it will take us a while to find the passage again. Do we have to contact that Martin?"
"I don't like Martin. Although Jose is crazy, it is only for other people, but Martin is crazy for himself," Necromancer Feramis said.
In front of the table, Balzeb opened his eyes that had been closed and looked at Jose's head on the table.
"Jose's failure is not surprising," he said slowly. "His character is doomed to his end. He relied too much on and was superstitious about those powers, so he was defeated by Martin. But for us, he is now Maybe there is still some use value, no one realizes that Martin can actually succeed. Fortunately, Jose is an undead, and as long as his soul fire exists, he will not die easily."
Then he stretched out a finger and gently touched the center of the head. A mysterious wave suddenly penetrated into the head. Soon, the bodyless head shook slightly and slowly opened. Eyes full of wrinkles.
??This pair of eyes glanced at the people around him, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth: "I knew you would come to me."
"Jose, it seems that your condition is not good," Balzeb said.
"It seems like you have seen the whole process," Jose said, "You are not much better."
¡°At least our heads are still on top of our bodies,¡± Jennings said with a smile.
¡°Soon it will be gone,¡± Jose said sarcastically.
"It's a pity that you can't see this day," Jennings said, "Then you should believe the warning we gave you before."
¡°Judging from your tone, you seem to have predicted my ending,¡± Jose said.
"Martin? We don't know what he's doing," Jennings said.
¡°I¡¯m not talking about him, I¡¯m talking about Ron,¡± Jose said with a smile.
Everyone looked at each other, and Zhuo Dong came directly to the person who revealed it, and gently knocked on the lonely bone.
"Are you talking about Ron? Do you think you were defeated by him?" Zhuo Dong asked softly.
¡°Maybe, I just didn¡¯t realize how far he had grown,¡± Jose said.
"So, you don't seem to have expected Martin's growth, Jose. There are so many things you don't know. To be honest, you are such a failure," Zhuo Dong laughed.
"What about Apollo's breath?" Jose said disapprovingly, "I felt Apollo's breath on Ron's body."
Everyone¡¯s expressions changed, including Zhuo Dong.
"What?" Zhuo Dong said in a deep voice, "Don't talk nonsense about this kind of thing. Martin threw your head from the air to the ground. Was it broken?"
¡°As he spoke, Zhuo Dong gently held Jose¡¯s forehead with his hand.
The light in the room dimmed for a moment, then brightened again, but in this short moment, there was an additional figure in the room. Apollo, Twilight's true leader, had already appeared in the room, standing right next to Zhuo Dong.
He lightly patted Zhuo Dong on the shoulder and said, "Maybe he is not talking nonsense. I really want to know the inside story of this matter."
Zhuo Dong paused and took his hand away from Jose's head.
¡°Say it, undead,¡± Apollo asked slowly, staring at the head.
Since Apollo appeared, Jose's soul fire flashed more frequently, seeming to be extremely excited, and his eyes were even more excited, staring straight at the powerful existence in front of him.
"I will eventually"I saw you again," Jose said, "I still remember that meeting many years ago. This is indeed our second meeting. "
"But I am disappointed in you, Undead," Apollo said.
"Are you disappointed? I feel the same way. I was still a human at that time, but now I have become an undead soul without a body. I hide all my memories and emotions in this abandoned head and serve as a sacrifice on this long table. You appreciate and talk about it. You should indeed be disappointed." Jose's voice was a little low, but he still couldn't hide the excitement in it.
"You should know your reasons. You did not fulfill my request, but were too indulged in your power," Apollo said.
Jose ignored his words, but said excitedly: "I will fulfill your request. Now I just want to ask you, is the magic of immortality you said true?"
"Tell me everything that just happened, especially about Ron's aura about me, and I will give you a satisfactory answer," Apollo said.
Zhuo Dong's face was as pale as water¡ª¡ª
"The fallen gods?" Ron couldn't help being shocked when he heard Ariza's description.
Spirits
Ron¡¯s mind was flooded with memories of gods, but in the end, only one word called ¡°powerful¡± remained. But this was not the first time he had heard of the existence of gods, and the last time was not long ago, so Ron was obviously not shocked to the point of being overwhelmed and at a loss what to do.
"It can be said that it is just a little different," Ariza said. "The fallen gods themselves will turn into nothingness after their divine fires are extinguished. Their gods will become the purest rules and spread across the world. Their The body will also be swallowed up by space, which is why no one has ever seen the body of a god," Ariza said.
"Is it like a goshawk? When they are about to die, they will try their best to fly into the sky and rest on the highest peak they can see. Therefore, their corpses are always buried at the top of the mountains, and outsiders will never see them. ", Ron said, "So what about the gods in this Holy Mountain's Sorrow?"
"He's not dead, he's back," Ariza said. "That's what the high priest told me."
Ariza¡¯s words had already confirmed the idea in Ron¡¯s mind, so he withdrew his eyes from the Sorrow of the Holy Mountain, looked at Ariza and said, ¡°Is that him?¡±
Ariza knew the "him" in Ron's mouth, so he nodded and said: "This is why we value Twilight, because this Twilight organization was established by him, a fallen but not dead god. At the beginning, Lovi When Ste joined Twilight, we were all confused. Why would our beast god issue such an oracle? You know, given the size of our temple, it is impossible for a new organization to have much impact on us. . But then we learned that the elves also received similar oracles, and not long after, the Holy See also received such oracles. Only then did we begin to realize the importance of the entire incident, and became more and more aware of it. Take it seriously"
"So later the high priest cracked the secret, which confirmed your opinion. So is all this because of him, Apollo?" Ron asked.
"To be honest, I was very surprised. After all, this is a god. Mortals can never lose respect and cannot compete with a god. This is different from any of my previous opponents," Ariza said.
"But the news I got is that this god is just an incomplete projection. Don't forget the rules of our world. Gods can never come to this world," Ron said.
Ariza said: "Of course I understand this. This is why we can sit here and talk about a god calmly. Otherwise, we would have been shattered by the lightning of the wrath of the god."
"But this is really a bit crazy. Gods are always aloof, looking at our world and all living things with all pity and ruthless eyes, but no god has ever become a public enemy of the entire magical continent. Your temple, The Holy See, the Magic Guild, the Green Elves, and even the Dragon Clan all participated in the action against this organization. This is almost the elite of the entire continent, fighting against the projection of a god," Ron said, " I don¡¯t know what outrageous thing he did to end up in such a situation.¡±
"It is said that part of it is because of the fight between the gods, but that is a matter between the gods and them, so we don't know clearly. Another part of the reason is that the cruel things exposed in the wanted order, even though they are all released on Zhuo Dong¡¯s head, but obviously this alsoLet Twilight stand on the forefront," Ariza said.
Ron nodded, feeling increasingly complicated.
"Zhuodong is with such a god, how can he not be worried?" What's more, everything now points to Zhuo Dong. If these things are what Apollo said on the projection of the so-called god, then I think Yu Zhuodong has become the scapegoat of this god.
"I know you are worried about Zhuodong, and I am too. Since Lovist entered the twilight, he has been walking alone in danger. Few people know his true identity, except for the temple The high priest. It was only when I succeeded the high priest that I came into contact with the truth of the whole matter. I also learned about many other things, including the matter of Jesmila," Ariza said.
"But Jesmilla is dead, and Apollo found him," Ron said.
Ariza sighed: "I'm afraid Apollo discovered more than just him. I'm a little worried about Lovist's situation."
