Shepherd Tantra

Chapter 127 Ashes and Dark Clouds
The antlers did not take the king's head themselves, but wanted to give it to another.

"Let's make a deal... I'm only doing missions this time, and those people can be left to you to kill."

He discussed with Lily in this way, showing his harmlessness and kindness.

He spread his hands, palms outward, indicating that he was not hostile: "I will only be your helper this time, as your bait. I stand outside to attract the attention of others, and you can take the opportunity to sneak attack at the right time... If I'm in danger, you don't need to come and rescue me.

"In this way, you don't have to worry about my betrayal, and I can also be your loyal teammate—how? It won't do you any harm, right?"

Of course Antlers knows that adapting to the path can easily lead to traitors.

But are there fewer duplicitous people he usually encounters?

He has long been used to contact with this kind of people.

Those who are habitually rebellious do not necessarily rebel.As long as they can give them enough benefits and a sense of security, and increase the price of their betrayal, these people can still be used.

And Antlers can be sure that Aleister should be a young man under 20 years old. The "knight" was just in his early twenties, and now he also confirmed that the king is one of the very few utilitarian transcendents who will not be promoted after acquiring mysterious skills.

In other words, everyone else is a two-way street.Including this "grey robe".

Since it is a dual-path, it is not easy to be as extreme as a single-path transcendent... Just like he is still very talkative even though he is a twilight path.

And Antler always feels that the other party's character should actually be good.

Because he felt that he was not hostile to this gray-robed gentleman, and even vaguely friendly.There was no basis for this, it was just his instinct—but his instincts were always more accurate.

Although the antlers did not immediately get a response from the gray robe.But he vaguely heard that the king's breathing suddenly disappeared and made a very low "clack".It was like being strangled by someone, but Antler didn't realize where the "gray robe" was at all.

After a while, a deep voice sounded.

"Okay. His body is here for you."

——This is less than half a minute, right?
Such a proficient bare-handed strangulation...is it from the strangulation party?

Antler had a vague guess in his mind.

But the strangulation party may not be unable to cooperate.

He smiled cheerfully: "It is predestined... I don't know if you have heard a saying. There are nine roads, three are still moving, three are still, and three are changeable. Wisdom, adaptation, and dusk are all happiness. You are a very typical adaptor.

"But for Twilight Daoist, I'm too talkative."

As the antler said, he reached out and groped on the ground, and found the still warm head of the corpse.

He stretched out his hand to press the other person's forehead, and the faint yellow light, like a worm, slowly crawled along his five fingers on the face of the "king" corpse.

"My friends, my relatives, my lover. The people I accidentally killed, the people I couldn't save."

With a special rhythm, the antlers chanted in a low voice: "I am the sad messenger of the Bootes, the dog of Icarios. There is no place for you in the underworld, please return silently."

As he spoke, he opened the king's mouth with his other hand and blew a breath into his mouth.

At that moment, the king's body was like a lamp being lit.

His whole body lit up with a dim yellow light, and it became brighter and brighter.

These rays of light wandered around in his body, and eventually half of them gathered in the heart and half in the brain.

The "King" suddenly opened his eyes, and a faint yellow light glowed in his pupils.

He quickly got up from the ground and followed behind the antlers.He opened his mouth slightly, but couldn't make any sound.

"...can't he talk?"

Watching the "Ceremony of Resurrection from the Dead", Lily finally couldn't help asking.

"Well, no. But it's still Mister King, not an empty shell. It's just that he can't think normally."

The antlers replied bluntly: "Speech and singing are the realm of beauty, reproduction and emotion are the realm of love. Thinking is related to wisdom, exercise is related to transcendence—the dead and skeletal are stripped of the four realms, dead and People with souls were stripped of the sixth realm, and those who died without souls were stripped of the eighth realm, leaving only dusk.

"From this point of view, the dead resurrected by necromancy... are actually still in the world of the dead."

This is the principle of necromancy that normal necromancers will not explain.

But for Antlers, who is a lawyer by profession, there is nothing to hide.

Antler looked at the huge door and ordered: "Go and open the door."

The king who came back from the dead opened his mouth silently, then rushed over with extraordinary agility, and climbed up like an ape.

"It's a pity that there is no bone staff."

The antler sighed: "If there is a bone staff, I can strengthen Mr. King's corpse. There is no need to issue instructions like this anymore."

"Aren't you a big shot in Avalon?"

Lily asked lightly: "Isn't it easy to make a bone staff?"

"That's really difficult. The weapons that can be brought into the ceremony must be made by yourself," Antler said casually, "I'm getting old, and it's not easy to learn how to carve from scratch."

He does not mean that.

Just this sentence "older" made Lili's heart move.

Although it is normal for a big man to be older... But for some reason, the first time she saw Mr. Antlers, she had a vague sense of familiarity, as if she had seen him from somewhere.

At this moment, Antler also asked, "Speaking of which, what should I call you?"

"Ash."

Lily replied.

The "Spider Silk Tantra" she inherited was taught by Hui Tiansi.The name couldn't be more appropriate today.

"I will protect you in secret."

She whispered: "I will always follow you, but don't try to find me... I am a spider in the corner."

Of course, this is a lie.

She was quietly observing the antlers, looking for a chance to kill with one blow.

In fact, she didn't understand this task...but Lily realized one thing clearly.

——You only need to kill six people in total to win.And Master Aiwass can certainly do it.

However, the "antlers" that first appear in the ritual are the most uncontrollable variable.

No one knows how many cards he has left.Therefore, Lily must follow him closely, looking for an absolute opportunity to kill him.

However, other than that...

"You said you were a big shot."

Lily, who was hiding in the shadows, couldn't help asking: "Do you know the ministers in the round table hall?"

She was still a little curious about her biological father, whom she knew almost nothing about.

Antlers smiled confidently when he heard this, "Of course. No one knows the people in the Round Table Hall better than me."

And the other side.

Gordon, the knight under the pseudonym "Thunder", and the rotten wood-like man who was not in a good state of mind had already escaped from trouble.

They left the storage room without attrition.

"Where are you going next?"

Gordon took over the captain's duties very naturally: "I'll see if we are on the way—if we are on the way, we can help each other. If not, we can only go our own way."

"I want to find the holy gun."

The knight said without hesitation: "Then take the holy spear and smash the magic cauldron of the giant! If there is a chance, I want to challenge those giants who believe in evil gods!"

"I can accompany you to get the Holy Lance," Gordon nodded solemnly, "I can also accompany you to smash the magic cauldron. But I strongly disagree with you attacking giants—but if you must do this, I also won't stop you.

"I will accompany you and try to protect you. If you are unfortunately killed, I can take your place and take the Holy Lance."

Both of them have a very strong hostility towards giants.

Compared with the Cavaliers, Gordon's desire for promotion is not so strong.

On the other hand, the man standing quietly like a rotten tree couldn't help laughing in a low voice: "Evil God? Hehehe..."

His voice is completely incompatible with the messy and decadent image, it is extremely calm and gorgeous and elegant.Not like a madman, but like an aristocrat.

"Supreme Heaven is of course the evil god."

Gordon frowned slightly, but patiently explained to the man: "'Supreme Heaven' is what Xiong Tiansi's believers call him, and he is a Tiansi who prefers the path of love and the path of authority. They yearn for A world of violence, lawlessness, and disorder, where the strong can bully the weak at will.

"In the past, the kingdom of giants, Arctos, was a dynasty that worshiped Xiong Tiansi. As a result, you have also seen... They will eat all races, even the same race. And the Supreme Heaven will even bless this evil race—"

"Mr. Thunder! Did you see the mission 'Successful Escape'?"

The knight added from the side: "Father Snake said that we need to find the key and escape from the Temple of Pancord... The place we are in is called the Temple of Pancord!"

Gordon affirmed: "These 'giant couples' are by no means ordinary couples. They can kill the apostles, live in the temple worshiped by the highest heaven, and have a magic cauldron bestowed by the highest heaven. And it is so huge... Possibly the legendary Tall Giant."

At Gordon's level, you can get in touch with some historical records about the kingdom of giants.

Generally speaking, a pure-blood giant is only six or seven meters tall.

In fact, giants are not born tall, but the older the giants are, the taller they are.Although giants can run when they are born, three-year-old giants are less than one meter tall, and teenage giants are usually only two meters tall, looking like slightly taller human youths.

But unlike humans, giants have a very long development period.Can grow up to hundreds of years, this middle giant will keep getting bigger and bigger.But generally speaking, according to the giant's talent, the maximum height that each giant can reach is different.

Because it is said that Xiong Tiansi is very huge, the giants protected by him are proud to grow taller.Usually the taller the giant, the higher the status.Giants who are tall to a certain extent are called "tall giants" and are usually regarded as "a gift from the highest heaven".

All the ministers of the giant kingdom are taller than the walls of the royal city.They are tall and thin, nearly 20 meters tall, with white beards like waterfalls.

Human weapons can't easily hurt them, and it's not much harder for them to kill humans than humans trample bugs to death.These giants can cause earthquakes when they run, so they usually sit and eat constantly.Only during festivals do they stand up and wrestle each other.And at that time, it will be a few days of shaking.

Judging from the door in the temple, the giant couple should be at least 20 meters tall.That is, three times the height of a regular giant.

"The true identity of this 'giant couple' is probably Xiong Tiansi's apostle."

Gordon looked at the knight and said seriously: "It's normal for the apostles to guard the temple, so they can kill the apostles who have dedicated their way and get the holy gun. Just like in the temple of Akpolis, there will occasionally be Hippocrates and Akpolis appeared... The Giant Dynasty worshiped Xiong Tiansi, built temples everywhere, and the apostles could fully appear in the temples.

"That's why I don't agree with you attacking giants. Even if Xiong Tiansi's apostles are not as powerful as the apostles of the Nine Pillars God...but Xiong Tiansi is a Tiansi of the path of authority after all. You hold the apostle of the path of dedication I still think it is a foolish move to challenge the two apostles of the authoritarian path with their own weapons."

Hearing this, the rotten wood-like man laughed again: "The way of authority? Hahaha..."

Gordon finally couldn't take it anymore.

He turned his head back seriously, and asked seriously: "Sir, what do you think is funny, you can say it directly. Please don't say some riddles, it will only spoil the mood-I think we are still teammates who fled together, what's the matter?" Can't you just say something straight?"

"...Are you sure you want to listen?"

A subtle smile emerged from the corner of the man's mouth: "You said this yourself, no wonder I."

Although Gordon and the Cavaliers felt something bad in their hearts, they didn't want to turn back after this happened.

"You can call me Wuyun. I am a werewolf hunted down by the Son of the Moon. A poor writer... who is about to flee to Avalon. I hope you can give me some convenience...Mr. Thunder."

The dead wood-like man leaned against the huge and rough cyan stone wall, raised a finger, and raised the corner of his mouth maliciously: "This is knowledge that you will never be able to obtain in Avalon. Although the Silver Crowned Dragon may not He cares, but his apostles do; his apostles don't necessarily care, but the mortal monarchs must care—why didn't they kill the giants back then?
"This is the secret of the beginning of the founding of Avalon, the history of the time when the way of 'authority' did not exist, and the only event of the changing of the Nine Pillars that has been witnessed in human history.

"Listen, and face the truth..."
