soul devouring system

A dream, but Wang Dong, who was sleeping soundly, was having a very real dream.

Dreams are the embodiment of the third-person perspective of God, but Wang Dong’s dream is the No. In this busy modern steel urban jungle, Wang Dong suddenly knew that he was dreaming.

"..." He pinched his body.

Wang Dong found that he was really in pain, but the pain was reduced to a very weak level.

But on the main road with people coming and going, Wang Dong's body was floating and allowing pedestrians to penetrate.

Those blurred faces fit perfectly with the unrealistic and unrealistic characteristics of the scenes in the dream. Suddenly, Wang Dong found himself speechless again.

Not a single word, not a single note could come out of his mouth, not even a tremor in his throat could make a sound.

vacuum?
Wang Dong's thinking changed, his nose moved lightly, but his chest immediately felt oppressed.

"Boom—" Everything disappeared at this moment.

Wang Dong opened his eyes, but everything in his sleep was still vivid in his mind.

"...I, am I homesick?" Rubbing heavily on her temples, she pushed on Dingyintang again.

Think about it, I haven't had a dream for a long time, even the ordinary kind of muddy dream, I just remember the general dream when I woke up, let alone the specific number of private cars passing by. The cards are all memorized.

The only pity is that those people have no facial features.

The blurred face added a bit of illusion to this dream.

"If it's true, how wonderful it would be..." Turning over, Wang Dong lay down on the bed with his arms in his head.

"When all this is over, we must find a way to go home... I hope everything will end as soon as possible." Wang Dong sighed, dreaming of infinite hope in his heart, for a moment: "Brother Geya, wait, I will definitely Find a way to bring you back to life... One day, we'll go home together."

"Yo! Brother, are you awake?"

The door was pushed open, and Wang Dong hadn't even looked over when he heard the hearty and excited shout of the bearded man.

"Brother Fez? How do you know I'm here?" Wang Dong was stunned.

"Hi! A few little brats went back to their room to sleep last night, and they saw you sleeping on their bed. You can really sleep. It's been a day and a night. It looks like you were exhausted yesterday, right?" Beard said.

Beard's full name is Fiscana, but others rarely call him that.Most of them are used to his code name "Big Beard", and most of the boatmen on the ship call him "Captain", and only Card Knight and Steward Su can call him by his name.

"One day and one night? Have I slept for so long?" Wang Dong was startled, and quickly looked at the clock on the wall.

The hour hand was pointing to seven o'clock, and the night lights on the wall were still on, so it looked like it was still seven o'clock.

How can I sleep for a day and a night? This is a day and a night and a day... It seems that I am really tired. I am afraid that the last energy is the magician's meditation that helped him, otherwise, as early as when the splint It has reached the limit.

"That's not it!"

Wang Dong took a deep breath.

"How are Card Knights doing?" Wang Dong asked.

The bearded man's face darkened, and he said in a muffled voice: "The situation is not optimistic. The knight is seriously injured. Although Steward Su is better, he can only barely move on the ground. I heard Steward Su say that if our ship is moving at the speed I am, it must be very difficult. No, Lord Knight's injury won't wait for us to go to Belmore."

"So serious? Wasn't it fine when you came back?" Wang Dong said with a frown.

But after thinking about it, the card knight's frontal injury was not very serious, but the rotten flesh on his chest that was left like a vicious curse was the key point.

According to what Cavalier himself said, if he used his strength, the injury would spread. Then after the battle, he used the five thunder guns and even the distance he fled was enough to exhaust him physically and mentally.

Wang Dong didn't do as many things as the wounded and sick, and finally he lay down on the bed and slept for two days and one night, let alone him.

"Go, take me to have a look." Wang Dong said.

The bearded man nodded, and said: "You should go and eat something first, don't rush for a while, I just went to see it, Lord Knight fell asleep after being awake for 3 hours."

"……Um."

Wang Dong got up and came to the restaurant with the bearded man. They ate something to recover their strength.

That night, the sailing land ship was very calm.

When he came to Card Knight's room, Wang Dongxun was almost fainted by a stench as soon as he entered the door.

Frowning, Wang Dong looked into the room, and saw Steward Su sitting next to Cavalier at a glance, and Cavalier closed his eyes tightly at this moment, and the pain was hard to hide even in his sleep.

"Su Steward." Wang Dong came to Su Steward's side.

The figure of this old servant was slightly hunched, and it seemed that being hit head-on by Dou Wang was enough to hurt Dou Zun.

Butler Su has always been synonymous with elegance—at least Wang Dong has never seen his waist bent down in front of outsiders, and everything he does is as strict as a benchmark.

"Sir, you are here." Steward Su's resolute face showed a somewhat gratified smile.

"Well, are you alright?"

"The old slave is fine, but he suffered some minor injuries. He can rest for a while, thank you sir for your concern." Steward Su's attitude towards Wang Dong can be said to be extremely respectful.

Wang Dong turned to look at the card knight on the bed.

His injuries were indeed shocking. Wang Dong thought that the range of carrion he showed him was already exaggerated, but he didn't expect that the area of ​​carrion in the card knight's chest would spread again at this time, and the front part of his entire upper body was completely weak. , most of the color of the muscles disappeared, and the rotten trend went all the way down, and it was about to erode the position of the navel, and the upward part was like the enchanting swaying claws of the flames, the blood line on the neck was black and red, It was as if sharp claws were pinching his throat.

"...how?" Wang Dong's surprise made him subconsciously ask.

"This is the curse of the sea monster..." Steward Su looked at the carrion on the card knight's chest and said quietly: "Three months ago, in order to find a small island where we could set foot in the sea area of ​​the mainland, His Highness urged our ship Sailing at the junction, we are all cautious day and night with [-] points of energy, it was calm and calm, but three months ago, on such a night, an unexpected guest suddenly came to the bed, cough cough cough..."

"It's a kind of fish, we've never seen a fish before. It's about half the height of me, and its head looks like a baby's, but its body is that of a fish." The bearded man also thought of that Happened late. "It's weird to say, our boat is so high, the fish was on the deck when it appeared, and it made a cry like a baby crying, but although it looks harmless, this guy's strength It's terrible—several of my brothers have been swallowed, and even Steward Su is no match for it."

"So, Card Knight made a move?"

"Yes, Lord Knight made a move, and for some reason, the fish gave up resistance after Lord Knight made a move, and was beheaded by Lord Knight after a few moves. That night we all thought nothing else happened... ...It is true that apart from this incident that night, the calmness of the sea made me, who has been a pirate for more than ten years, feel strange." The bearded man paused.

"After that day, His Highness would occasionally tell me that his chest was sore and itchy. At first I thought it was just some sea wind disease at sea, but who knew it would be such a curse..." Butler Su said.

Wang Dongting was faintly afraid.

A "baby fish" who confronted Dou Zun head-on.

To be able to curse a Dou Wang after death, the horror of this sea area outside the mainland is really unimaginable.

"Since Card Knight was the second prince of Wantu, why didn't he return to the royal family? Could it be that the medical resources of the entire royal family can't solve his illness?" Wang Dong asked.

"I can't go back." Steward Su said firmly. "Your Highness was entrusted by the late king with the Five Thunder Spear. If people know that His Highness is sick and his strength is greatly damaged, those brothers and sisters of the royal family who have grown fangs do not know how to embarrass His Highness. Let alone treat the injury, even His Highness His life is also difficult to guarantee."

"Is the five thunder guns really so important?" Wang Dong said.

"The five thunder guns are the symbol of the emperor. Although it is reasonable to say that they are all controlled by the contemporary emperor, the current majesty who is in power has no intention of practicing fighting qi magic due to physical reasons. The thunder gun was given to His Majesty today, while His Highness the Second Prince has been obsessed with the practice of Dou Qi since he was a child. He began to learn Royal Dou Qi from the late Emperor when he was three years old. It's just that the first emperor is cautious, and he has little understanding of the emperor's family. Although the eldest prince is the heir to the throne, the first emperor understands the first emperor's character very well, and he is afraid that the eldest prince will ruin the whole family after he leaves. The family property of the empire, so before he left, he passed the Five Thunder Gun to His Highness." Steward Su said this.

Sounds like some royal secrets.

But as long as it is in the imperial capital, this kind of news should be regarded as something that everyone has tacitly understood.

But it was the first time for Wang Dong to hear about the secrets of the royal family. It has to be said that the former emperor had no choice but to do so.

The current emperor has no fighting spirit and magic, and can only rely on his laurels and train his sons and subordinates. It is useless to hand over the five thunder guns to him, but according to the succession system of the throne, the eldest prince must be the next emperor.

But the first prince took his own brother to the knife before he took office, the person who can do this kind of thing is really unconvincing.

It was a time of peace and prosperity, not a time of war.

But this damned eldest prince wanted to snatch the Five Thunder Guns for the sake of his own status.

Besides, his father didn't have a five-thunder gun, couldn't he still sit securely in his seat?It can be seen that the eldest prince's temperament is really arbitrary. If he is really handed over to him the five thunder guns, the symbol of the emperor, the Wantu Empire will change from the aristocratic hierarchy to the feudal monarchy.

"Huchi—" The second prince on the bed suddenly took a deep breath.

Those eyes opened.

The neat broken hair somewhat covered his cheeks, but Wang Dong could still see the turbid breath in those eyes.

"Your Highness." Steward Su hurriedly stepped forward to help the Cavalier.

"Xi Ling..." Card Knight called her by her name in the first sentence. When he regained consciousness in a trance, he glanced at Wang Dong who was standing beside him with a sick look: "You... are here."

Wang Dong showed a smiling face.

This second prince is really an infatuated kind. If he is really made an emperor, he is afraid that he will also be the one who loves beauties and does not love the country. Now he doesn't even care about his own life and only cares about his soul.

"I said man, was he alive and kicking yesterday? Why did he lie down today?"

Card Knight smiled wearily.

"I, I don't have the energy to fight with you, you, help me, help me call Xi Ling, okay?"

This eccentric second prince actually used a begging tone, Wang Dong was taken aback for a moment, not knowing how to answer him.

"I know, I know that you have a good relationship with her, so just, let her come and see her once..."

Wang Dong was startled again.

What happened between Xi Ling and Cavaliers is not clear to her, but it is a pity that Ling does not want to see that the second prince is so hard-hearted, even if the two meet, Xi Ling will act as if he is not familiar with him— —Besides, I don't know Xiling well. Both the card knight and I helped her restrain the tamer back then. Even the nostalgic Xiling should be closer to the card knight.

But facing such a patient, Wang Dong couldn't refuse him.

"Okay, let me try it." Wang Dong said.

Card Knight breathed a sigh of relief: "Thank you."

Wang Dong nodded to Steward Su, but Steward Su's expression was a little difficult. He wanted to say something to Wang Dong, but he didn't say anything in the end.

Walking out of Card Knight's room, the bearded man led the way, and Wang Dong came to Xi Ling's residence.

I don't know if it was intentional or not, but Xi Ling's residence is in a place where there is absolutely no intersection with the Card Knight, whether it is going to the deck, eating, or even looking for other people on the ship, he will never go the same way as the Card Knight.

Knocked on the door.

"Who is it?" Lina's voice came from the door.

"I, Scala." Wang Dong said.

The door was opened.

Linna was standing in front of the door, wearing a home dress. She looked less tough than a man and woman, and a little more weak like a woman, but the cropped short hair still looked very "hard".

"What's the matter with you?" Linna's attitude was tepid.

This woman really has a bad temper, and she really likes to put on that stinky face that rejects people thousands of miles away, but she is not so cold now.

"Yes, is Miss Xi Ling there? I want to ask her to go out with me and tell some secrets." Wang Dong laughed deliberately.

"..." Seeing him like this, Lin Na was speechless for a moment, looked Wang Dong up and down, and then turned around: "Wait a minute, I'll ask Miss... Miss has been very upset these days. Comfortable."

"Thank you." Wang Dong replied politely.

Not long after, the door opened again, and Xi Ling's thin figure appeared at the door of the short room—the hatch of the hull was only about 1.7 meters, and Xi Ling had to bend down when going out.

"Mr. Scala, long time no see." Xi Ling smiled.

But none of the people on board is in good condition. Xi Ling, Steward Su, Lin Na, and Ka Qiqi are all in a sick state, but Xi Ling's condition is obviously better than the others. She was much better, and even matched with a white gauze dress, her pale complexion added a bit of sanctity.

"Miss Xi Ling's injury is not serious?" Wang Dong asked.

"No, thank you sir for your concern." Xi Ling said, "I heard from Linna that the master came to share some secrets with Xi Ling?"

Wang Dong said: "Yes, I wonder if Miss Xi Ling can go with me to visit a dying patient?"

I thought that no matter how much hatred there was, Xi Ling would think about it a few times using the words of life and death, but what Wang Dong never expected was that Xi Ling spoke without even thinking about it.

As soon as he opened his mouth, he resolutely refused.

"Is it His Royal Highness the Second Prince? I think... I don't have to go."
