my demon

Chapter 117: A Different World Tour

Xiao Yan woke up in a daze, and heard someone talking in his ears: "Wake up, ah, even the eyes are black! It's so rare! Look at this hair and eyelashes, they are all black and shiny, without a trace of variegation. , much like pure-blood, but with no visible race."

"It's the human race."

"Will there be any shadow elf blood?"

"The facial features are not like the outlines of the elves. Human races have black hair and black eyes, and we dwarves also have them, but it's rare to see them so black and straight."

Xiao Yan moved his body, his mind was in a daze, his eyes were a little blurry when he opened his eyes, he was helped up and fed him a few sips of water: "Is it better? Are you awake?"

Xiao Yan finally regained his focal length a little bit, and found himself in a dark and low place, filled with musty and sea smells, and several people in front of him surrounded him and looked down at him, all of them were against the light, so they couldn’t see clearly Face, he opened his mouth to speak, but found that it was a bit jerky and difficult to understand the other party's speech and his own.He said awkwardly: "Where is this place?"

"The accent is kind of weird."

"Is this your first time speaking the Common Tongue?"

"Maybe it came from some small place. Where did you come from? This is the Breath of the Breeze. Is it not clear yet? I can't speak."

"I've heard that the pastor from the City of Light in the village also had this accent when he spoke. It seems to be an aristocratic accent."

"Look at the quality of the robe on him."

"The silver wristband on the foot also looks very precious—whether it will fall from the cabin compartment above."

"How is it possible? If those noble gentlemen were lost, they would have been looking for them by now. Seeing how small he looks, and the hole is our lower cabin, which is escorted by the noble archmage, which is as stable as a rock. In the sea."

"But I don't seem to have seen him before, and you can see that his hands and feet don't have any calluses, and his skin is so tender."

"There are so many people, how can everyone see it? I'm still young, maybe I'm more favored at home, right? So many people rushed into the sea just now, it's thanks to his fate."

Xiao Yan's mind was in confusion, thinking, who am I?

But he still reluctantly said: "I...why am I here?"

A brisk voice explained to him: "The tsunami was severe just now, a big hole was broken in the cabin, the sea water poured in, and everyone ran out. After the water was drained, the alchemist on the boat patched up the hole and let us go back to the cabin. When we found you wet and unconscious in the corner, we were startled and thought you hadn’t escaped and drowned, but fortunately we found that you still had a heartbeat and rescued you.”

His eyes gradually adapted to the darkness, and finally he could see the other person's face clearly. The other person was a woman with short hair. Her nose bridge and chin contour lines were somewhat tough, her cheekbones were thin, and there was a deep scar on one eyebrow. It seemed to have been slashed obliquely by the blade of the sword, and the voice was crisp and clear. Other than that, the light was dim, and the color of the opponent's eyes and hair could not be seen at all.

He slowly touched his forehead, where there was still chaos: "Thank you very much."

The woman smiled: "My name is Vanessa, this is Lansbo, a dwarf, and here is Hill, a descendant of goblins. We are all going to the sacred capital to try the Magic Academy, how about you?" ?”

Lansbo has broad shoulders, a large head, curly hair, smooth and powerful arms, and looks like he is swinging a heavy sword or hammer all year round.Hill is short and thin, with short hands and feet, a protruding nose, pointed ears, and a pair of eyes that shine even in the dark.

Xiao Yan thought for a while, and vaguely recalled: "Xiao Yan." He made a vague voice, and Vanessa simply said, "So it's called Xiao En, and this name is quite common."

Xiao Yan always felt that the pronunciation was wrong, but for a moment he didn't know what was wrong.

"Is there anything else wrong with your body? Is it cold? Lansborough has dwarf honey wine, would you like to drink some to drive away the cold?" Vanessa asked him concerned, Xiao Yan shook his head, and Hill touched it His robe: "His robe is already dry, but his hair is still wet. This is a magic cloth. Although the color is black and inconspicuous, but judging by the luster, there should be magic patterns woven into it. I have seen priests before. The priest’s robe of the church is warm in winter and cool in summer, and it also has a defensive function, so it’s okay to be burned by fire or flooded.”

Lansbo spoke: "It's still a child, doesn't it look like it's less than 20 years old?"

Hill said: "He wears a ring on his ring finger, he must be married."

"Get married so early?"

"Humans like to get married early."

"Vanessa, have you forgotten that you are also a human race?"

Xiao Yan was silent, he couldn't remember, his mind was still in chaos.

Seeing him drooping eyelashes and unable to speak, Vanessa looked haggard, his dark eyes looked very melancholy, and she felt pity: "You should rest for a while? Are you hungry?" She stuffed a piece of dry bread in Xiao Yan hand: "Eat something first, rest for a while."

"Tomorrow we will arrive at the Red Moon Port, we will disembark there then, how about you?"

Xiao Yan could only say: "Well, I'll get off too." It's better than being at the bottom of this narrow, scary and dreary cabin.

Vanessa said happily: "Couldn't you also go to the Royal Academy of Glory? This year's enrollment expansion, we spent all our savings to change the ticket. If we don't pass the exam this time, we plan to find some odd jobs there Go on, keep on taking the exam, if you fail the exam in one year, you can take the exam for two years, if you can't, you can become an apprentice!"

Hill snorted coldly: "You are stubborn, your father won't let you take the test, so you insist on coming out."

Vanessa said proudly: "I must be admitted to the Knight Academy! I will be the greatest female knight in the future!"

Hill was a little discouraged: "Goblins have always been unpopular, and they are not good at spells. I probably won't pass the exam. I can only look at you."

Lansbo encouraged him: "You will definitely be admitted to the Alchemy Academy and become a great alchemist."

Hill was dejected: "What about you? Are you still going to take the entrance examination for the Holy Light Academy? I heard that after entering, it will be very strict."

Xiao Yan looked at Lan Sibo, and Lan Sibo looked at Xiao Yan curiously, and explained: "I am interested in being a holy priest, and there are very few dwarves who become priests. Go to the Master's Examination."

Vanessa said: "It will definitely work! I also wanted to try the holy knight test, but my faith is not firm enough, so I should go to the Royal Academy of Glory first. I saw a griffin on the boat, it is so majestic! "

Hill sneered: "Our small place has really reached the sacred capital, full of talents, and then we country bumpkins will only be looked down upon...or we should talk less in the future..."

Vanessa smiled and told stories she had heard before.

Xiao Yan sat up, listening to their chat, while slowly arranging his robes, he found that he was not wearing any clothes under his large mage robes, of course, he could not be said to be completely naked, because he groped out in the dark, There is a belt around his waist, and there are still some broken fabrics hanging from the belt, which should have been worn before, but it has been damaged for unknown reasons.

He slowly retracted his foot, and sure enough, he saw what Hill said was a wide silver bracer on the ankle, inlaid with gemstones and patterns.He checked his body, and found a wide armband on his left arm, presumably the same material and style as his feet, and then on his chest, he felt a necklace with a metal box hanging under it, he saw There were too many people with mixed eyes, so they cautiously did not pull it out for inspection, but slowly felt the lines on it with their fingers.

Who is he?

============

In the spacious and beautiful church, the Lich sat on a large armchair with a sullen face, without saying a word.

The pope said: "The seal is broken, the power of the black abyss reappears on the mainland, and the tranquility will be broken again. We must prepare as soon as possible at this time and gather strength. Just like the previous experience, the monsters coming out of the black abyss will soon break through. blockade and invade the mainland."

Gloria, Queen of the Elf, looked at the Lich with concern: "The elves will still go all out, but in the past hundred years, the birth rate of elves has dropped very sharply, and I am afraid it will be difficult to show the same combat power as they did 500 years ago."

The dwarf king Koufus said in a deep voice: "The dwarves are the same here. The birth rate has dropped drastically. The soldiers back then are all old."

King Arathor, the human emperor, looked coquettishly: "The human fertility rate has maintained a good trend, but the problem is that the number of babies with magical talents is decreasing year by year. The Royal Glorious Academy has been recruiting students for these years, and it has not been able to complete the enrollment plan in the past ten years. The academy has repeatedly The reduction, coupled with the short lifespan of the human race, makes the situation grim."

King Arathor glanced at the Pope: "Furthermore, faith is shrinking year by year. Now people's belief in the God of Light seems to be decreasing. I think the number of knights and priests in the church is also decreasing."

The Pope said solemnly: "The crisis is coming, and it is the time to preach. We will increase the number of candidates for the Guangming Academy, select talents from churches around the world, concentrate on teaching, improve combat power, and unite as one without delay."

He glanced at the lich: "Fortunately, the master of the cold wind and ice field has also returned. The combat power of the undead clan still needs to be troubled by the master of the dead to lead the assembly."

The lich showed some impatience in his indifference: "If you want me to fight, you don't need to look for me. I am withdrawn and don't like to deal with people."

Queen Gloria chuckled: "It's still the same. I am very impatient knowing that you were unexpectedly summoned back, but when the crisis comes, you still need to be patient. Do you want to go back to the Elf Forest? There are many young Elf mages in the Elf Forest. I need your teaching."

King Arathor sincerely invited: "Let's just take up a job at Guangyao College. It will be convenient to convene and discuss things, and it will be close to the Pope."

The Lich said: "No, I want to find someone."

All the leaders were stunned: "Who are you looking for?"

The lich said: "My partner, who was involved in the black abyss with me, should have come to this world, and was separated by the turbulent black abyss. I have to find him immediately."

Queen Gloria was surprised: "Since they are lovers, shouldn't they have a soul contract? It should be easy to locate and find."

The Lich's face was extremely gloomy: "It's invalid."

"What?" Everyone was surprised, the pope said: "This is the first time I heard that the soul contract can still be invalidated?"

The Lich said: "I couldn't figure it out at first, but after thinking about it carefully, the soul contract is an oath made to the laws of the world when the contract is made, so it cannot be changed. But, here comes the problem, when is the right time for me to make the soul contract with him?" , is in his world, so it uses the power of the law of that world."

Everyone was stunned, and the pope said: "Back to this world, the power of the law conflicts, causing the soul contract to be terminated and invalidated?"

The Lich closed his golden eyes: "Not only that, I suspect that he is still restricted by the law. I am afraid that something will happen and he will not be able to control himself. Otherwise, he should know that as long as he calls my name, I can respond to him."

But no, when he found out that the soul contract had expired, he was terrified, and, in theory, his soul box was still on him, and he could find him as long as he returned to the soul box.

However, he also lost the control and connection of his own soul box, which must have the interference of the laws of the world.

The soul box is the most important item of the Lich. Of course, the Lich did not mention it to others. Moreover, Xiao Yan is his most important weakness. He cannot easily expose him to others, even for these former allies before him. Can't fully trust.Therefore, he will not say that Xiao Yan's identity is actually a god from another world.

Therefore, it is very likely that he came to this world and was rejected by the laws of this world.Also, the god who also has the power of faith, the God of Light, who knows what will happen?He glanced at the kind pope, but he knew in his heart that if there was a conflict between the God of Light and Xiao Yan, then he would not care about being an enemy of the entire Church of Light or the whole world.

He thought coldly that it would be better for the law to get his partner back sooner.Otherwise, he doesn't know what he can do to destroy the world.

King Arathor enthusiastically suggested: "How about you draw a portrait, and I will distribute it to all parts of the country and order people to look for it?"

The Pope also said: "I can also tell the churches everywhere and order people to look for it."

The Lich shook his head: "No, I can figure it out myself, thank you. If there is nothing to do today, I will go first." Heiyuan's unblocking is full of strange things, it shouldn't be unblocked so early, he won't trust anyone.The enemy is in the dark, and he is a solitary person with countless enemies. He can't let his weakness be noticed and found by any force first.

Gloria hurriedly said, "Aren't you going back to the Elven Forest with me? I can also order someone to look for it."

The Lich said: "No, I will stay in the sacred capital. There are many people and news here."

His brows were full of depression.
