Chapter 109 99. Give me a drink!
They had been on their way and now it was getting dark.
The darkness pressed over, endless, rich and oppressive, like a lightless drop of liquid on a rainy night.
And people seem so small in this wilderness.
So Hades followed the emperor to a stop, and a fire rose in the wasteland. The flames faded and reappeared, dispersing a small piece of darkness.
Just this little light dimly illuminated them, reflecting their faces.
The two of them sat there bored, Hades staring blankly at the burning fire, waiting for dawn to continue on their way.
But the child's laughter rang out from the darkness.
Suddenly hearing the laughter of children in the uninhabited wasteland, Hades was shocked,
"Why are there children here?!"
He looked at the emperor, but the emperor ignored him completely. The emperor looked nervous and pulled out With his sword, he stood up and said,
"Get away! Get away! Damn guys, get away!"
The emperor's voice spread far away, but was quickly swallowed up by the darkness without making any sound.
The mule snorted, stamped his feet, and leaned away from the fire.
"No, what happened?"
Hades also stood up in a hurry, but unfortunately he was unarmed.
But Hades thinks he shouldn't face a child with a weapon?
But while Hades was thinking, the children appeared.
Their strange, dirty figures emerged from the darkness, jumping back and forth on the edge of darkness and light.
"Join us."
They said,
"Get out! Get away!"
The Emperor held his sword and made a gesture of jumping forward.
"I am human, you shits, get out of here!"
"Why don't you join us? ?"
"We promised you everything."
"There is obviously no one on the top step, why don't you take another step up?"
said a child with a cunning light in his eyes. He was slender, but Agile.
"You should face your own desires, hypocritical adult."
said a beautiful child.
"Everything is meaningless in the end, and struggling is very tiring."
"You shouldn't be so weak!"
"Crawl! You shits!"
Hades felt that they were all talking crazy, but thankfully it was none of them. He didn't even care about Hades, he was like a piece of darkness, forgotten together.
So he continued to stand aside and watch calmly.
The Emperor couldn't stand the chirping of the children anymore, so he scooped up mud from the ground, balled it up, and threw it at the guys.
The mud fell accurately on the fat guy, and the cry immediately started.
So the remaining children dragged him away making a fuss.
Before leaving, the child glanced in the direction of Hades.
Then he hid in the darkness again.
Hades walked to the Emperor hesitantly,
"What are they?"
"Just what you see."
Hmm. Children?
"You hate children?"
The emperor snorted,
ah, hating children doesn't make you a good father.
Hades thought inexplicably.
"Then what are they talking about, asking you to join them?"
The emperor's nose twitched, as if he had heard news that disgusted him.
"Never possible."
"People don't live with insects."
"Look,"
the Emperor seemed to be interested in talking, so they sat down around the fire again.
The orange firelight reflected on the emperor's face. He held a branch in his hand and used it to stir up the firewood underneath.
His face was golden, and in a trance, Hades seemed to see the golden crown on his head.
"Even if they promised me everything."
"But what are children? They are just little things made of clay." "
They may be interesting, but they are of no use to survival."
"They misunderstood me."
The Emperor casually picked up some small branches, broke them, and threw them into the fire.
He looked at the small branches that had burned themselves in the fire, and continued,
"Live, and live so that you can raise the sword of vengeance against your enemies as you please."
"Everything else is meaningless."
Those branches gradually disappeared. It turned to ashes in the fire, so the Emperor used his skills to fill in some more firewood.
Hades blinked and helped the Emperor throw firewood into the fire.
Then the fire became strong again.
The Emperor glanced at him.
"What about you? What do you want to do?"
Him?
What does he want to do?
Hades originally wanted to say alive, but it seemed that the word "alive" did not stir up any waves in his heart, as if he had seen too much life and death.
Just as he wouldn't lament the leaves on the street.
"Well"
Hades suddenly felt hungry again.
Open a restaurant?
He suddenly remembered that someone had said this to him a long time ago.
Nothing had happened at that time, and he hadn't walked all the way here yet.
They were all still there then.
"Create an environment where everyone can sit down, eat, and chat together?"
The emperor glanced at him again, and his dark brown eyes were dyed gold from time to time by the firelight,
"Then you might as well give your enemy a knife. ."
Hades shrugged.
"It's not wanting to do it."
"If it's already realized, it's not called wanting."
"Short-sighted and superficial."
The Emperor muttered. "I never said I was a wise man,"
Hades said.
"I am a wretch."
"Indeed,"
the Emperor nodded.
"But who isn't?"
Yes, who isn't?
Hades stared at the flame, it was too small, even though it was burning hard, even though it had eaten so much firewood, it was still too small.
The rest is endless night.
Hades didn't know when he fell asleep. He only knew that he was blown up by the morning wind.
He forced himself to open his eyes. It was dawn and the Emperor was packing his bags.
"Let's go."
The emperor got on the mule, and Hades followed naturally.
So they hit the road again.
Go, go, go, go.
They have traveled a long time and experienced a lot.
They went through the puddle, but the Emperor separated the water, although Hades saw no need to separate the shallow puddle.
They went through the abyss, but the Emperor kicked the mule directly, and Hades grabbed the mule's tail and followed them across.
The air is getting thinner and colder.
Finally, they arrived.
This is a wilderness full of rich green grass, and a cow is grazing leisurely on it.
Some bright green and red cracks crawled on the cow's pattern.
Not far away, many stacks of hay that had only been chewed once or twice were thrown carelessly on the ground.
The emperor got off his mule, drew his sword, and stared at the cow closely,
"You must avoid its attack."
?
"This is..."
Hades racked his brains and thought for a moment,
"This is a dragon?"
"Yes."
The emperor ignored him and rushed forward!
The cow also rushed towards the Emperor, directly facing the Emperor's sword.
this.?
However, the cow that was fighting with the Emperor suddenly looked at Hades and spat at him.
But the spit rushed towards Hades at an alarming speed!
Hades quickly dodged.
The Emperor took advantage of the cow's distraction and stabbed the cow with his sword.
Gurgling black liquid gushes from the cow's wound.
They dripped to the ground without making a sound.
Seeing the liquid gushing out, the Emperor held down the cow tightly,
and the cow was still mooing.
"Come here! Come here quickly!"
"Come here, Hades!"
Hades hurried over and was smeared in the face with black liquid by the emperor.
"Drink it, hurry up!"
"Drink as much as you can, hurry up!"
What is all this? ? ?
But Hades still complied with it in a daze. He hid outside the range of the cow's struggle, desperately picked up the dark liquid with his hands, and then swallowed it.
The liquid tasted weird and stuck in his throat, and Hades felt like his insides were burning.
He was still drinking desperately, as if he had given himself an order: as long as he could not die from drinking, he would drink to death.
He is burning.
"Cough cough cough!"
When Hades finally felt that he was about to die, his vision began to blur, and he looked forward - the
emperor was wearing golden power armor, and the sword in his hand was engraved with gorgeous patterns, psychic energy The fluctuations were rapid and violent, pressing the dragon tightly.
A huge, incomprehensible, sparkling dragon.
Its huge tentacles cover the sky and the sun, the luster of the metal changes all the time, and all the laws of the universe bloom on it.
It's bleeding.
Hades looked down at his hands, which were covered in dragon's blood.
He passed out.
When he opened his eyes again, Hades felt a chill on his back.
Malcador looked at him with his head turned upside down.
Ah, I'm not awake yet, he thought.
"Get up, don't sleep!"
Malcador hit Hades' calf with a stick.
? !
Hades opened his eyes again, and he found that they were now on the Tharsis Plateau.
"Huh?"
"What's going on?"
Hades struggled to support himself, and
Malcador glanced at him,
"You gained knowledge, that's it."
"What knowledge?"
Hades felt like he was My mind is still empty.
Malcador rolled his eyes at him,
"You know how to drive a tank, but what if you haven't seen what a tank is?"
Hades blinked, confused.
Malcador stopped paying attention to him and walked towards the distance, seemingly calling the swarm of insects in Collier Jersey.
Hades stared blankly at Malcador's back.
The setting sun stretched over the plateau, stretching Malcador's figure far and wide.
Malcador followed the light and walked away.
Hades was left alone in the darkness.
He felt sleepy, so Hades closed his eyes and lay peacefully in the darkness.
It was as if he was darkness from the beginning.
