Surviving the Fourth Calamity

De La Cruz's knowledge of the multiverse is not yet that deep.

So he didn't know much about the strange situation of the Son of Destiny.

Just when I went to those worlds to look for some people who shouldn't be alive, I read more of their books and learned a little bit about the relevant knowledge.

After all, it is already an open world of demons, and there will be endless attacks from demons coming from the void, so the demons are pretty good to those who sincerely surrender.

All the knowledge that should be given was given.

There were a few guys who gave up on their humanity relatively early, but it took a little effort for Delacruz to strike!

He can't just kill his own people and ignore outsiders, right?

Although these guys were not very harmful to the students who left after de la Cruz, in the beginning, they cooperated with the devil to kill or capture the first few batches of his disciples who left.

The devils do understand people's hearts very well, but without the cooperation of those people, they would not know what the mage from Trashiel wanted most.

It was because the people he killed were considered top combatants in those worlds that Delacruz was targeted.

In fact, it didn't matter if he was targeted. He had already been mentally prepared and had taken all precautions.

It's a pity that I didn't expect to meet a grand duke who was wandering around the world under Asmodeus.

But this luck is not the worst.

Delacruz reluctantly convinced himself... Before meeting Gracia, he said this with more confidence.

Not like now.

Especially when he found out that Hill was here, he didn't feel the need to come to this world.

He even felt that he was here to protect Hill from disaster.

With Delacruz's usual pride, he naturally believed that...without his presence, Hill would be the one who would attract Gracia's attention.

He actually doesn't think highly of the mages in this world.

Of course, this has nothing to do with character or anything like human nature. It's just that as a mage who studies alchemy, he has no regard for the magic and alchemy of this world.

Hill is probably the guy who considers human nature.

Delacruz blinked... So, Hill would like this Gilbert and have a deal with him. Naturally, it has something to do with Gilbert himself being a person that Hill can like. .

Hill is willing to deal with people who have a bottom line.

Otherwise, the little bear would definitely rather take a detour than deal with Gilbert so directly.

Then, he had to change his approach to some things.

The backup left behind at the Tower of Despair... seems to be unusable.

Otherwise, if he really did something to trick Root, that Gilbert would have cursed him.

Hill probably guessed something, so he specifically reminded him of Gilbert's existence.

Even the Grand Duke of the Devil is unwilling to bear the curse of an existence like the Messenger of the Underworld.

It was a curse worse than Benbaza, the goddess of misfortune in Toril.

Doom will be consumed, but soul weakening will not.

Delacruz moved his fingers and couldn't help but murmur in his heart: Hill even discovered such a secret thing, so how could Gracia not feel this aura of desire?
Is that bear playing dumb?
Rommel's expression couldn't help but change... Is there something that he didn't notice? ——
"Teacher, I'm back. Master Rommel personally came to the door to receive the things." Russell, who stopped by the trading center under the main tower of Root, walked into the secret room where Hilbert was.

Probably because Rommel's story has come to an end for the time being, the conspicuous red aircraft is displayed on the giant screen.

Dreyfus in the window didn't know whether it was because he was seriously injured. His complexion was very poor and he looked even uglier.

Russell glanced at it and couldn't help but twitching his eyebrows, turning his head and not wanting to look anymore.

Hilbert looked at him, smiled and said, "How can you not read it just because you don't like it?

The changes in Drifos's face are the only thing worth appreciating in this boring story.

Tsk~”

Russell froze for a moment before turning his head to look carefully at the giant screen.

Because Dreyfus had been lying on the couch in the living room, moaning, and cursing his followers from time to time, those followers were not very willing to stay around him.

It was only when he called for someone to do things for him, that he would carefully send out an unlucky guy to do things while being scolded.

And Aislin and Rossello naturally didn't plan to come out.

Each of them had their own plans, so naturally they didn't care what Dreyfus was doing, and they were also wary of the other one, so they simply stayed in their own rooms.

Anyway, the location of the defense tower is there, and Aislin's aircraft can just fly according to the map.

The biggest villain in this world is their Tower of Theia, and the enemies on the other side of the Styx have also encountered it... Whether it's the dragon or the man in black, it's obvious that he has no intention of fighting them to the end, otherwise it wouldn't be so easy. Back away.

Therefore, there is no need to worry about being attacked again on the road.Under such circumstances, Dreyfus was basically left alone.

His face has also been facing the back of the sofa...which is where the window is.

When Russell just walked in, he found that the face was ugly again, and the ugliness was new... But Dreyfus was already quite ugly, so he didn't really care much.

But after the teacher reminded him, Russell suddenly realized: physical weakness will indeed make people look worse, and the senses will also become uglier.

But not so ugly as to be so distinctive.

But because he disliked Dreyfus and had the impression that this guy was particularly ugly, he just brushed it off and didn't take it to heart at all even if something was wrong.

Russell lowered his head slightly: "I was wrong, teacher.

I will definitely be more careful in the future. "

Hilbert didn't pay much attention to this... He himself had gone through puberty twice, and he knew very well that at this time, whether a boy or a girl, the most intuitive feeling for people starts from the face.

Regardless of whether the character is good or not, ugliness is absolutely intolerable.

Maybe if the relationship is in place, looks will no longer be an issue.

But if this person only has the first impression in their heart, then no matter whether the other person is kind or exists, they will only choose to avoid it because of the word ugly.

Young people in the multiverse have actually improved a lot of this attitude that is a bit frivolous but is the most direct emotional response, but they still ignore many problems because of the ugliness of the other party.

Therefore, it is already very good for a child under 20 years old to be like Russell.

He could at least observe that Drifos had become ugly, but he didn't take it personally.

"His body is quite interesting." After this period of observation, Hilbert finally understood the problem with Drifos.

"Teacher, is his face fake?" Russell's first reaction was this.

"It's not fake." Hilbert smiled, "But I took some kind of fruit that has a bonus effect on the soul.

This fruit is delicious and can help the mage clarify his soul and strengthen his spiritual sea. However, it has a side effect of making people uglier.

Moreover, because this fruit is a special product that grows in the kingdom of gods, its energy will be very abundant...to such an extent that even the Nine Ring Master can only digest a small half of its energy.

But this fruit also has a characteristic, which is that it can keep energy in the spiritual sea and digest it slowly.

Moreover, the remaining part can nourish the mage's soul.

Once the spiritual sea is damaged, this fruit can quickly repair the mage's spiritual sea.

In fact, it is a very good fruit.

that is……"

Russell still understood what Hilbert hadn't finished speaking. He couldn't help hissing, looked at the giant screen, and said with an unbelievable expression: "As long as you use its energy, it will become uglier ?

Is it?

Always this ugly? "

Although he didn't live a leisurely life, Russell was actually quite well off in this world. He didn't know for a moment whether he would be willing to eat this kind of fruit if he encountered it.

I can only think in a daze... Carpenter probably would rather die than die.

"Well, when you are forced into a desperate situation, your face is actually not that important." Hilbert said nonchalantly, "The fact that you can consider whether you are willing to eat this thing only proves that your teacher I able.

If it was Felice, at that time, if someone asked him if he wanted to use this fruit, do you think he would eat it? "

Russell blinked and suddenly showed a happy smile: "He will definitely eat.

So, I'm really lucky to have teachers in my life. "

Hilbert laughed helplessly: "Ha~ He is such a talkative child."

Russell squinted his eyes and smiled... As long as they tell the truth, their teacher is still willing to listen.

Hilbert shook his head and brought the topic back: "Drifus does not necessarily eat this fruit willingly."

Russell was surprised: "Could it be the Tower of Siya..."

"The Tower of Sia doesn't have such a good thing!" Hilbert said firmly, "Although this thing is very funny, at least it will really increase the strength of a mage.

Although the sequelae are a bit depressing for young people, for the elderly who have reached the limit of their lives, if they can continue to live, who cares whether they are ugly or not?

So don't think of it as a gift from the devil. "

Russell quickly thought of another existence that their teacher would occasionally grit their teeth when they mentioned it: "That one, Ransander?"

"I once had a girlfriend who was the goddess of fate, and she had a really great influence on Lansendre!" Hilbert couldn't help but sigh, "Only he can produce such a fruit that has a sense of fate and is full of cold humor. The research is out.”
