The Tale of the Kraken

Chapter 858 Pentecost Coin

After a long time, it seemed that Asmodeus and Samael finally recovered from the previous sacrificial ceremony, they sat up slowly, took the coin back without saying a word, and put it After putting it away, Asmodeus quietly put it and the dagger away.

Yang Yang has been quietly watching their movements, without stepping forward to stop them, and without giving them any opinions or suggestions. For a moment, silence spread among them.

However, no one answered the question Yang Yang asked before. Asmodeus and Samuel seemed to have suddenly lost their memory, and did not respond to Yang Yang's words at all.

After a while, Asmodeus seemed to have come to his senses suddenly, looked at Yang Yang and said, "I think it must have failed."

After finishing speaking, he looked at Yang Yang and said, "You are right, our method may not work here, we should have listened to you long ago."

His appearance made Yang Yang suddenly have a bad feeling. He frowned and looked at Asmodeus, then turned his head to look at Samuel, and then asked suddenly: "I have something to ask Ask you."

As if that consciousness had drained all the strength and vitality of Asmodeus and Samuel, their reaction was half a beat slow at this moment.

They looked at Yang Yang's expression, and it took a long time before they realized it, nodded and said, "Well, you can ask."

"That coin..." Yang Yang cared about that coin very much. He had seen many magical artifacts, but there was never a magical artifact that could make him have the urge to keep it for himself.The moment Asmodeus put away the coin, Yang Yang even had the illusion that he couldn't look away.

"Coins?" Asmodeus repeated his words as if he hadn't realized it, and then said, "Is this what you mean?"

While talking, he took out the coin, put it in Yang Yang's hand, and said, "This is a Pentecost coin."

"Pentecost coin?" Hearing his words, Yang Yang raised his eyebrows, then took the coin from him, and whispered, "Is there anything special about it?"

Yang Yang's voice was not loud, and his tone was a little strange. Rather than talking to Asmodeus, it seemed more like he was talking to himself.

Seeing him like this, Michelle was a little worried, so she stepped forward and asked, "Brother Yang Yang, what's wrong? Is there anything wrong?"

Yang Yang didn't answer his question, all his attention was on that coin, for some reason, this coin always gave him a strange sense of familiarity.

It was as if he had once held this coin in his hand, but at the same time, his consciousness was trying to repel the coin, constantly reminding him of the danger, wanting him to reach out and throw the coin away.

Yang Yang has never encountered such a strange feeling.

What surprised him the most was that logically speaking, it was absolutely impossible for him to have seen such a coin taken out by Asmodeus, let alone hold it in his hand.

But such a familiar feeling is absolutely true, which made Yang Yang very confused for a time.

If he had really held such a coin, it is impossible for him to have no memory at all, but if all of this was imagined by himself, then the familiar feeling from his consciousness and the sense of crisis that penetrated into his bones What is it?

"This is the Pentecost coin?!" Just as Yang Yang was still struggling with where his familiar and dangerous feeling came from, Michelle's exclamation rang in his ears.

"Yeah." Asmodeus nodded, looked at Michele and said, "Does the saint also know this?"

"I haven't seen it, but I've seen records about it in some classics." Michelle nodded, then turned to Yang Yang and said, "Brother Yang Yang, can you show me that coin?"

Yang Yang subconsciously wanted to refuse, but then he realized that all eyes were on him.

They seemed puzzled why Yang Yang had such a reaction, let alone them, even Yang Yang himself didn’t know why he had such a reaction, but luckily he noticed something wrong at the first time and corrected it immediately .

When handing over the coin, he couldn't help but said: "Xue'er, be careful."

"Well, I know." Michelle smiled and nodded at him when she heard what he said, then picked up the coin and looked at it carefully.

At this time, the coin has completely changed into what they saw before, just like an ordinary ancient silver coin. The blood-red coin that just fell from mid-air seems to be an illusion they had before.

The six-pointed star engraved on it is like an ordinary decoration, without any change, and the shiny golden look before seems to be just their illusion.

I can't tell at all that this is the coin that was placed in the center of the magic circle by the two demon kings before and absorbed their blood.

Thinking of this, Yang Yang turned his eyes to the place where the magic circle was originally drawn, only then did he realize that the magic circle had become somewhat blurred in just a few minutes.

The magic circle, which was soaked in blood before, is like a sand painting randomly drawn on the beach, becoming blurred with the invasion of the waves.

"After losing the magic power, these magic circles will not be preserved for a long time." Asmodeus followed Yang Yang's eyes to see the magic circles, so he said with a smile: "Otherwise, the magic circles would have been restored by humans long ago." Once it is engraved, it will be spread all over the world.”

What he said is not wrong. Apart from other things, human beings' ability to learn and reproduce is beyond the reach of other races.

Therefore, Yang Yang smiled and did not answer, but seeing him like this, Asmodeus continued: "Pentecost coins are the currency between hell and the world."

"The currency that travels between the world and hell?" Yang Yang knew every word Asmodeus said, but when he connected it, he didn't know what it meant.What is the currency that travels between the world and hell?

He knew what it meant to be a passage between the world and hell, but currency?

The human world and hell should be the same as the human world and the demon world, there are many differences, and the biggest difference is that the currency between them is different.This was the grief and indignation that Yang Yang felt when he saw Ying Long and Bai Ze at the very beginning.

In their eyes, ordinary human beings may not even have the value of an imitation magic weapon in their life's hard work, but one thing they take out at random is enough for human beings to struggle for half a lifetime.

These are just the differences between the demon world and the human world. In essence, both are still creatures. At least in terms of the recognition of some gems, the two still have the same aesthetics.

But hell is different from the human world. If you have to say it, it is similar to the human world and the underworld in China.Yang Yang didn't dare to think about the currency circulating in the two worlds.

"To be precise, this is a bridge used to travel between the two worlds." Asmodeus saw Yang Yang's expression of seeing a ghost, and said with a smile: "I don't know if your side is about hell or yours. Are there any legends about the place called the Underworld?"

"Of course there are legends." Yang Yang said so, but did not intend to explain in detail.

But fortunately, Asmodeus is not interested in getting to the bottom of it. He just nodded and said: "We also have a little bit over there. According to legend, when people go to hell after death, they will pass through a river. The name of this river is the River Styx, nothing lives here, and the soul cannot cross the River Styx, and everything will sink on the River Styx, so they need a ferryman."

Hearing this, Yang Yang immediately remembered what he had heard about the legend about the Styx River. In the legend, there was a ferryman on the Styx River. To the other side, their destination.

"And the Pentecost coins are the rewards for the ferrymen of the River Styx." Asmodeus said with a smile.

His smile was still a little pale, and after listening to him, Samuel added: "Under normal circumstances, naturally, you don't need to give him coins, but if you have some special requirements, such as wanting to meet someone , or if you want to come to the world from hell, you need such a coin."

"Money can turn ghosts!" Michelle whispered after hearing this: "This sentence is true everywhere."

After hearing her words, both Asmodeus and Samael grew smaller.

It's true, no matter where you are, as long as you pay enough, someone will do anything for you. Although it sounds a little cold, it's the best thing.

However, Yang Yang is still very concerned about one thing, just as Asmodeus and Samael said, since it is a coin that travels between hell and the world, when did he see it and hold it in his hand? What about?Why would it have no effect on itself?
He has never been so eager to restore his memory. He always has a vague feeling that this coin is very important, but he can't remember why it is so important.

This feeling is very bad, Yang Yang felt that he was about to be driven crazy.

"Then is it still useful now?" Michelle looked at the coin in her hand and asked Asmodeus: "Your ceremony failed, so can this coin still be used?"

"I can't."

Asmodeus said, smiling at Michelle: "The coin that has been used once, without the blessing of Lord Lucifer Morningstar, has lost its effectiveness in summoning the ferryman. So now, it just It’s just a fancy ancient coin, in the eyes of humans, it might be able to sell for some money, but for us, it’s useless.”
