Chapter 35: A Dragon Comes(1/2)
Lu Mingfei decisively took out the swallow and gritted his teeth.
"The ghost lingers!"
"Don't be so excited brother, I'm here to help you." The boy gently tapped his finger in front of Lu Mingfei and said with a smile, "Remember, I am your brother and I will never harm you."
"Why should I trust you?"
A dragon that can stop the flow of time at will, disguise itself as a human, and even appear anywhere.
The boy's threat was much higher than the Odin Lu Mingfei had ever seen.
"Have you ever heard of formations?"
Lu Mingfei nodded and stared at the boy warily.
"The city you are in is activating something similar to an array. Without my help, you and your two friends will be trapped by it and fall into the bottomless abyss forever." The boy said with a smile.
.
"Exchange with me, and I can ensure that you get out safely!"
"Exchange for what?" Lu Mingfei couldn't understand what he meant.
"You've read Faust, right?"
"Read it."
Chen Wenwen recommended him to read it.
At that time, Lu Mingfei, who was still dreaming about a vigorous love affair with Chen Wenwen, ran back and watched it twice.
I thought that the two of them could share some common topics through this book, but Chen Wenwen never mentioned it again.
"The devil Mephistopheles made a bet with Faust. Mephistopheles became Faust's slave. Once Mephistopheles satisfies Faust's worldly happiness, the contract will be terminated and Faust's soul will belong to the devil.
.”
The boy said calmly: "My conditions are similar to this. I will fulfill your wish..."
"You want my soul!?" Lu Mingfei's eyes widened.
"No, what I want is your body, one wish, in exchange for a quarter of your body."
"Get out!" Lu Mingfei couldn't help but explode.
This dragon's behavior was much worse than he imagined.
At a young age, if you don't learn good things, you will just learn what the gringos did in Brokeback Mountain.
The boy sighed and shook his head: "What are you thinking? Well, change the contract rules and I will take your soul and body."
Lu Mingfei sneered: "Oh, the price is so high, what can you do?"
"Everything... no, almost everything."
"Kill the Dragon King?"
"That's my duty."
"Sounds pretty good."
"so you……"
Lu Mingfei spit out bubbles expressionlessly: "But, I refuse."
"You can get out now, dear little devil."
boy:"……"
Probably because he didn't expect Lu Mingfei to refuse so decisively, he was a little confused for a moment.
"Don't you want to... live?" After a long time, the little devil asked bravely.
Lu Mingfei's face was indifferent: "I have a way to get out on my own."
"I……"
"Leave or not, I'll kill you if you don't!" He raised his long and short swords and threatened.
The little devil lowered his head helplessly.
"Okay... then... see you next time when you need me, brother."
After finishing speaking, the boy's figure disappeared and the water surged again.
After coming back to his senses, Lu Mingfei found that he was still marching quickly behind Ye Sheng and Jiude Aki.
The difference is that Lu Mingfei already knew what was happening in this ancient bronze city from the little devil's mouth.
"Senior Brother Ye, Bronze City is closing down! It discovered us invaders!"
His voice made Ye Shengye Jiudoku's parade slow down a bit.
Immediately afterwards, what Lu Mingfei said shocked the two of them.
"And the exit will be disrupted by some kind of formation, so we can't go back the way we came!"
"Oops, we have to report it to the Monyach quickly..."
Having said this, Ye Sheng suddenly realized that they had not communicated with the Monyach since just now.
He looked behind him and realized that the lifeline behind him and Lu Mingfei had been cut off at some point.
For a moment, my whole body felt like falling into an ice cellar.
At this moment, the huge bronze city is like an instrument made up of mechanical parts, with all parts rotating.
Old roads are blocked and new roads are created.
Just relying on the amount of oxygen the three of them have left, it is impossible to calculate the correct exit and escape in a short time!
"There are still twenty minutes of oxygen left." Aki whispered.
"Almost impossible." Ye Sheng frowned in pain.
For such a huge existence as the Bronze City, it is difficult to realize the idea of using the Vacuum Snake to calculate the exit.
"I hurt you."
Yaji felt that if she hadn't been under the illusion of a bronze sculpture, the formation in Bronze City would not have been activated.
Ye Sheng shook his head and said: "I don't blame you, we should have acted together at that time."
The two of them cuddled together, like mandarin ducks in distress.
"Don't be sensational at this time! Senior brother and sister! We still have a chance, follow me!"
Lu Mingfei's roar broke their "last words time".
Ye Sheng and Ya Ji raised their heads and looked at him.
At this time, Lu Mingfei's hand was wrapped with some kind of green light.
In such a dark and deep water bottom, the green light is so calming and shining.
"What's this?"
Now it was Ye Sheng's turn to be dumbfounded.
They don't know unique creatures from other worlds.
"Guideworm."
Lu Mingfei answered.
Guide worms are a must-have for hunters in other worlds to track down their prey. They can search for traces of prey and also discover rare medicinal materials.
The function of pathfinding is almost irreplaceable.
The guide bug in Lu Mingfei's hand was the last batch left in the warehouse.
Guide insects are irreversible resources, so use them sparingly.
Now he can no longer go back to that other world. If all the guide insects in his hand die, it means that he will forever lose an item he brought back from the other world.
So when he released the guide insects, he also deliberately left a few as mothers just in case.
Maybe in the future they can cultivate new guideworm larvae under the alchemical technology of Kassel College.
"Follow the light and we can get out."
Countdown until oxygen is exhausted, eighteen minutes.
Ye Sheng and Jiude Aji no longer asked any more questions.
After all, time is life, and the problems in your heart can be discussed later after you get out alive.
Lu Mingfei set the breath of Monyah as the destination.
The three of them followed the guidance of the green light and swam desperately toward the outside of the Bronze City.
Countdown, seventeen minutes.
At the same time, Ye Sheng turned on his speech spirit and contacted the Monyah.
