Bulwark of Light

Chapter 719 Goodbye, Goodbye

"Chucky!"

This slender ray of dark fire was pressed into his wound by Gu Shen.

The underworld fire and the sky sheath are both taboo powers of the same level... Theoretically speaking, the power of the underworld fire and the sky sheath should restrain and interact with each other, and should be able to produce effects.

This is also what Gu Shen thinks of at the moment, the only way to have a chance to remove the curse.

He is the future Pluto!

Logically speaking... In this world, what curse is there that can bring Pluto down?
Severe pain emerged, but Gu Shen's face remained unchanged.

But his spirit was strongly shocked at this moment.

In the spiritual sea, a wonderful "illusion" appeared. The moment the underworld fire and the curse of the sky sheath collided, the world in front of his eyes suddenly turned black, and the originally condensed spiritual power uncontrollably drilled into the depths of the heart lake.

Gu Shen snorted.

He just felt like he was using [Deep Sea] for the first time, and his whole body was sucked into the majestic vortex, and he couldn't even hear Chu Ling's cry in the sea of ​​his heart.

"Open your eyes" again, and he came to a world of mist.

The contact between the underworld fire and the fragments of the sky sheath... produced a wonderful and extraordinary reaction, which made him fall into this dream of unknown origin.

This seems to be a pitch-black snow mountain?
The burning fire can only illuminate a narrow area about three feet in front of him.

Gu Shen looked around in a daze, and subconsciously walked towards the side of the fog.

In the distance of the mist, at the far end of the snow curtain, he seemed to see a very shriveled and skinny figure.

……

……

Xuelong, tonight is Christmas Eve.

The Tundra Prison has started the second reconstruction. Mr. Ghost and Mr. Xue are performing guard duties, and have re-planned the deployment of the core area of ​​​​the Sky Sheath... Due to the ongoing siege operations in Central City and Nagano, in the midst of a large number of manpower Under the transfer, the number of supernatural beings responsible for the secondary construction will naturally decrease.

Safety first.

At the temporary base of the Gu family, two night watchmen are on duty.

After the last accident, the Gu family strengthened their protection for someone——

The north wind howled and was resisted.

The room was very warm, and Zhong Gui turned on the lamp to read at night, but although the light was on, he was lying on the table and fell asleep... For several consecutive nights, Xing Yun didn't close his eyes much.

Dismantling ancient texts is a very exhausting task.

The room is full of drawings.

These are left by Gu Shen, the blueprint of the longevity technique brought out by Linz in Zhongzhou... Chu Ling is also researching. Also limited.

The difficulty of translating this thing is beyond imagination.

A person without talent, no matter how hard he tries, can only understand one "wedge" in his whole life... For example, Ian, this great scholar is already famous all over the world, but in this matter, it took a hundred years to get results. little.

Xing Yun's head was dizzy, he didn't know how long he had been writing.

All he knew was that his whole spirit was between reality and dream... Many times he thought he was very awake, but the moment he opened his eyes, he realized that he had fallen asleep a long time ago.

At other times, he felt that he was sleeping soundly, but when he turned his head suddenly, he found a thick stack of drawings beside him, all of which he wrote "unconsciously".

In this environment, his already muddled memory became even more chaotic.

He often dreams, dreaming of all kinds of bizarre scenes...

He would often dream of a blizzard night where there was a towering giant who knelt in front of him on one knee and tried his best to pull out the "Sword of Heaven" in front of him, but failed in the end. The giant's body was covered with ice swords. , and finally fell to the ground with a bang, and the dust and snow waves that set off submerged him.

This time.

He was dreaming again.

It's just that in a dream...he seems to have come to a snow mountain.

It's a wonderful feeling.

His soul, as if being pulled by some invisible force, crossed the void, crossed the rules... and then fell into a dry, dilapidated body under the cover of billions of snow flakes.

This dream seems to be different from the previous ones.

……

……

"This dream... the scene is very familiar..."

Gu Shen walked on the snow mountain.

His consciousness gradually recovered, and his sluggish thinking also became faster.

"This...is the Black Snow Mountain?"

Gu Shen looked at the black snow flakes falling in all directions, and his expression became solemn. After the contact between the "underworld fire" and the "heaven sheath fragment", he came to this place.

Of course he wouldn't think it was a coincidence.

Gu Shen, who owns the two-piece set of fate, is very clear... This dream must be some kind of contract with the effect of "cause and effect".

In an instant, he thought of the scene of Pluto and Traveler's transaction back then.

The biggest secret that I saw in the underground of the Styx!

At this moment, a perfect reproduction.

It's just... As a continuation of cause and effect, he replaced the Pluto back then and came back to this black snow mountain where he traded. He didn't know what he would see next. Could there be a traveler at the other end of the fog in the snowy night?

Traveler still alive?Just in this world?

So the big guy who was beheaded by the queen earlier was indeed a large "apostle"?
Countless thoughts flashed through Gu Shen's mind.

He held his breath.

At the end of the fog, there was indeed a skinny figure in front of the raised stone wall of the Black Snow Mountain. Gu Shen stopped in his tracks. Although his expression was still calm, his heart was still shocked.

"It's really... a traveler!"

Guided by fate, he came to this Black Snow Mountain.

Pluto and Traveler meet again.

It's just that the "traveler" in front of me is completely different from what I saw in the previous dream——

The traveler in the dream has plump wings and a perfect figure, exuding the powerful aura of a god-level creature.

And the skinny body in front of him has long since withered, its huge wings were gathered, all the feathers fell off, a spear pierced through its chest, and it was nailed to the stone wall, and there were several broken arrows sticking out of its body... Gu Shen had no reason. These arrows seem familiar.

"died?"

Looking at the traveler, Gu Shen suddenly felt uneasy and uncontrollably filled with fear.

The traveler died on the Black Snow Mountain?

Who did it, the former Pluto?
No... this spear, and this arrow, don't seem to be the method of Hades...

Just as Gu Shen stood still and looked at it for tens of seconds, the traveler who was nailed to the stone wall, that skinny body that had been dead for an unknown amount of time, suddenly trembled, this movement was very subtle.

But Gu Shen will never be wrong.

The traveler... moved.

And it wasn't blown by the wind.

The next moment, the skinny body slowly flipped its palm over, supported the body with the palm, and moved a little... Due to the spear piercing through the heart, the entire stone wall moved along with it, making a crackling sound. .

This raised stone wall is not fragile, on the contrary, it is very strong, as if it is integrated with the whole Black Snow Mountain.

If the traveler can't break free from the spear, he can't break free from the snow mountain.

He is nailed to his "field".

After some struggle, the traveler seemed to have found a comfortable position, and he sat down calmly.

……

……

Tsuka Oni felt as if he was acting out a play.

He is an actor under a heavy shell... In his soul, there is a powerful force guiding him, how to do it, how to do it, all of this seems to be an arrangement of fate.

He didn't know why he came to this black snow dream.

I don't even know...

Why did I see Gu Shen again in this place.

However, seeing Gu Shen was something that made him feel at ease. The person he saw when he opened his eyes was Gu Shen. This guy treated him well, and the blueprints he sent were also helping him recover his memory.

Since everything was arranged in fate, he had nothing to resist, so he might as well just do it.

Tsukashi raised his head.

He looked at the young man in the snow, wearing a black feather cloak, with black fire burning between his brows, and smiled.

"Gu Shen, we meet again."

And the traveler who was nailed to the rock wall of the snow-capped mountain also trembled in his chest.

"Gu Shen..."

"meet again."

The hoarse voice pierced through his heart, making Gu Shen's hair stand on end.

The traveler knows himself.

What he said was his own name... not the name of the previous Pluto!

The most terrifying thing is that the traveler just said the word "again".

When was the last time?
Gu Shen thought about it calmly, if fate allows others to peep, then the extremely powerful existence should be able to feel the corresponding peep through the fate line... The reason why the traveler said "again" is probably because When he was peeping with the help of the black gemstone, he noticed it.

This explanation was the only reasonable one he could think of.

Gu Shen slowly took two steps back.

He said calmly: "You are here to see me, do you want to continue the transaction with me?"

The tomb ghost inside the body was stunned.

This response completely exceeded his expectations.

He just wanted to say hello, and then ask about the situation, but a horrible thing happened at this moment, and he realized that he had no control over this tattered body at all... the "moving" just now, and " Open your mouth", as if it happened according to fate, a natural result, but this time he wanted to clarify.

Fate no longer allows it.

He tried to open his mouth, but couldn't make a sound.

The "actors" on the stage of fate, after the opening, can only follow the script... There is no other path to choose.

Tsuka Oni watched "myself" speak.

"Yes."

After getting the response, Gu Shen lowered his eyebrows and smiled, and said: "I understand... When I peeped at the Black Snow Mountain, I was locked by 'fate', when that big guy hit the sky sheath, you came When we get here, the deity must be somewhere in the five continents, and it has recovered at this moment."

"..."

The traveler did not respond to this.

The tomb ghost in the body was stunned, receiving and digesting this huge information.

"So, our meeting this time...was also part of the deal between 'Tinder of the Traveler' and 'Tinder of Hades' back then?"

Gu Shen murmured: "When the two fires signed the contract, they bound each other together with fate. The ending of meeting in the dream of Black Snow Mountain is something I can't escape no matter what... as long as the 'underworld fire' 'When you come into contact with objects contaminated with 'Travel Fire', the karma of the year will be triggered."

At this point, Tsukagui couldn't understand anymore.

But Hu Ke's answer was very simple, clean and neat, without any shyness.

It is still a word.

"Yes."

Gu Shen frowned, looking at the perfect creature nailed to the stone wall, for some reason, the more he looked at it, the more he felt that "Traveler" looked like an acquaintance he had seen before, although his face, body, and temperament did not match of.

But this intuition is there.

"So, what's your deal with 'him'?"

Gu Shen got straight to the point. After he figured out the ins and outs, he stopped panicking.

What he was most worried about was the issue of "status" in this dream. It was not a good thing to be summoned into a dream by a god-level creature.

But seeing Traveler's miserable appearance...

The biggest problem, it seems, is no longer a problem.

As for the mysterious identity of the former Pluto, he now has some clues... These clues all point to the ruler, and maybe some useful information can be extracted from the traveler's conversation.

The body's answer was always concise, as if saying one more word would mean death: "Live."

"live……"

This is not difficult to understand, Gu Shen asked: "I want to help you survive?"

This time, the traveler didn't even say "yes".

He moved his head slowly, expressing his affirmation with a nod.

"I can't help."

Gu Shen said calmly: "I can't pull out this spear, and I can't do these arrows."

In fact, it's not a question of whether or not you can pull it out, but that he doesn't want to pull it out at all, and it's impossible to even touch it!
This dream came out of nowhere.

Moreover, the "negotiation" at the meeting has risen to the level of survival.

Gu Shen had already set aside eight hundred thoughts.

His "deal" with the devil is a lesson from the past.

If he hadn't been superior in chess, he would have been killed in Styx——

Gain wisdom by eating a pit, the devil is not a good product, and it is difficult for a traveler to be a good person.

He didn't know what kind of deal the former Pluto and Traveler made, and how the deal was extended to him... As a "dreamer" who knew nothing, Gu Shen had to figure out the deal first. situation, he is jointly and severally liable.

In fact, the question he is most concerned about is that when he and the traveler meet in the dream, the medium should be the fragment of the sky sheath. Is this enough to prove that the sky sheath is the authority of the "traveler"——

It is further inferred that the "Sword of Stone" that fell into Wuzhou 600 years ago is a derivative of the "Traveler's Tinder" fragment of the gospel box in the [Old World]?

in the case of!
So the curse of the scabbard...is the traveler capable of removing it?
After Gu Shen euphemistically expressed his lack of ability, the traveler who was nailed to the stone wall slowly shook his head.

"..."

Gu Shen didn't understand this shaking of the head.

This is disgusting and rejected.

Or, is there another meaning?
"Live... live together."

The traveler's voice was hoarse, this time he uttered more than one word, and each word was shocking, like a bolt from the blue.

"You help me. I help you."

This is what the previous nod and shake of the head meant—

The thin body slowly raised two fingers, as if to drive away the cold wind, and nodded at Gu Shen.

Then--

The "Sky Sheath Curse" lingered in Gu Shen's heart like a haze.

That's how it was dismissed.

Like the wind.
