Chapter 321: Demon (I)

The morning light is picturesque.

Caesar opened his eyes slightly, and his eyelids slowly lifted as if they weighed a thousand pounds. Then he saw a blur of light and shadow, and after his gaze gradually focused, an oil painting hanging on the wall expressing the joy of the autumn harvest was reflected in Caesar's eyes. He turned dazedly, his neck twisting like a rusty machine.

He saw candlesticks hanging from the ceiling, wallpaper that had fallen off in some places, two tungsten lamps mounted on the wall, and a mirror. and, in the mirror, the lips are white. Caesar found himself lying on the bed, looking down at his chest, with only a piece of sterile gauze attached to his abdomen. He gently lifted the gauze, and the wound that had once been stabbed by Baku had scarred and left a dented scar.

"I'm still alive......" Caesar lay down, his first thought.

The second thought was, "Where is this?" ”

"Yes, tell Master SΓΉ Allen, I'll go in a while, let me see how our big man is doing today......" The door suddenly opened, and a middle-aged man walked in. He suddenly saw Caesar and said with joy, "Are you awake?" God forbid, quick, go and inform Master Allen, the big man is awake! ”

Caesar didn't know what God was or who this man was. But I heard that it was obviously Alan who saved himself. Sure enough, it didn't take long for Allen, who was dressed in a tuxeto, to walk into the house. Father MirΓ³ withdrew, leaving the room to them.

Alan nodded, "You're finally awake, Caesar." You've been in a coma for almost a month. ”

"I've slept for so long?" Caesar was surprised.

"Your wound is infected, and although you survived in the end, the virus seems to be affecting your nervous system." Alan pointed to his head and said, "The doctor said you might never wake up, but I know you won't sleep like this." ”

Caesar's chest rose and fell as if he thought of something, and he said excitedly, "I have to go back." ”

"No, no, no, you're still weak, lie down." Eren pressed him back into bed, "Who hurt you, Caesar?" That night, Baku said you were killed by the army of Storm City......"

"Baku." Caesar smiled bitterly: "The man who used to be my brother has changed, my friend. He was overshadowed by rage, and now only angry, vengeful souls remained in Baku's body. That's what he did to me! ”

"What did Baku do?" Alan didn't seem to react much, and he asked, "Why?" ”

"I don't know, but he mentioned the need to free the demons from the graves of his ancestors. Probably, killing me was part of his plan. ”

"Ancestral graves? Demon? Alan frowned, "What the hell is going on?" ”

Caesar shook his head and said, "The people of Sur have always thought that there is a treasure in the Asz Mountains, but we know that there is no such treasure in that mountain at all. But there is a demon that has been imprisoned, and we have lived in the mountains for generations to guard this demon and make sure that it cannot leave. Otherwise, it will ruin miΓ¨ a qiΔ“. ”

"Demons? Caesar, the demon you are talking about, is that the legendary creature? Alan was a little incredulous, and he was more convinced that it was some kind of metaphor.

At this time, the door opened, and Father MirΓ³ reminded, "Master Alan, you should go to the temple, the wedding is about to begin." ”

"Wedding?" Caesar looked at Alan in surprise.

Alan shook his head and smiled: "It's a friend's wedding, it's very important. I have to be there, you rest first, and we'll talk about it when I get back. ”

Today is the day of Edward and Nilou's wedding, which takes place at the temple in the city of Thur. Beliefs in this world have nothing to do with Christ, and the objects of the gods and spirits vary from place to place. Like the Balgaon Empire, people generally believed in Sabis, the god of war. There was a temple of the god of war in the city of Suor, and now, in a room of the temple, Nilou was looking at herself in the mirror.

She was still a little young, and she had already been dressed by the maid, and she almost combed her long brown hair. Nilou clenched her little hands, and there was some anger in her eyes, but more helplessness. When she learns that her father is trading her marriage, Nilou is furious. But what's the use of being angry? In fact, she also knows that many women are like her and need to trade their marriages.

It's just that she didn't expect that her father would become the city lord overnight. Unexpectedly, Ethan married her to an outsider.

She didn't even know who that so-called Edward was?

At this moment, someone walked in. Nilou saw that it was a handsome young man about her own age. His ocean-blue eyes shone like blue gems in the sunlight that poured in from the window. Nilou watched him walk towards her, and took the comb from the maid's hand, then brushed her hair with gentle movements.

"I'm Edward, beautiful Miss Nilou." Edward said softly.

Nilou shook slightly.

Edward combed her hair seriously: "I know, Miss Nilou doesn't even know who I am, and she also understands the damage this marriage has caused you. But trust me, I'll take good care of you no matter what. I won't let you be wronged in the slightest, so Miss Nilou, please leave yourself to me. ”

He leaned down slightly and kissed Nilou lightly on the cheek. He looked up in the mirror and said, "Look, you are so charming and moving." I feel blessed to have a wife like you. ”

Deftly tucking Nilou's long hair up on her head, Edward took a crown pin next to her to hold her hair in place before smiling and exiting. Nilou felt her heart pounding, and it occurred to her that this husband wasn't too bad. At least, he was gentle and handsome.

It's just that......

Nilou frowned slightly, his eyes seemed to turn from sea blue to golden when he looked in the mirror just now?

The girl shook her head, thinking to herself that she must be delusional.

Outside the room, Edward sighed softly, "Just take it as a compensation for you." ”

In the main hall of the temple, the invited guests were already present, and the hall was full, and some even had to stand. On the stage, Ethan stretched out his hand to silence the crowd below, and said, "Distinguished guests, today I have two important things to announce. The first is naturally the marriage of the little girl Nilou and Edward. Edward was a young and capable man, and I was relieved to have Nilou in his hands. ”

The people whispered that when they heard the news of Nilou and Edward's marriage, it was natural for people to associate Ethan with Alan. With a rich imagination, he had vaguely guessed that Baron York's death must be inseparable from these two people. But they only dared to speculate in private, after all, in name, Ethan inherited York's inheritance legitimately. If anyone doubts, the first to jump out will not be Ethan, but the constitutional executive of the Empire.

"The second thing I would like to do is to take this opportunity to announce that I am honored to invite Mr. Allen to join our Chamber of Commerce and to assume the important position of President of the Chamber because of his great contribution to the city of Sur. I believe that under Mr. Allen's leadership, our economy in Sur City will grow by leaps and bounds. ”

Hearing the news, Sean at the bottom smiled bitterly, but he didn't dare to stand up against it. The automated looms provided by Alan had already earned him a good reputation in the city and in the artisanal workshops. Now, including Sean, they are counting on him to be able to provide some more advanced textile technology, which will greatly improve the production and quality of textiles.

Naturally, such a person deserves to become the chairman of the Chamber of Commerce.

Ethan watched with satisfaction as the guests cheered and applauded the two major events he had announced, and the other meanings in some of his eyes were automatically ignored by him.

Today is a very important day for many people. This is true of Edward, and so is Allen, even Baku.

While the wedding of the lord's daughter was taking place in the temple of the god of war in the city of Sur, Baku was standing on the edge of a cave in the mountains of As, and on both sides of the cave, the bones of wild beasts were buried in the hollowed out caverns, which made the cave look very eerie. There was a faint glow in the cave, and through the light of the fire, you could see that the passage in the cave was sloping downward. From time to time there was an eerie wind blowing from the cave, and the sound of the wind was like the murmur of a demon in hell.

Behind Baku, King Kong and several of the leaders of the Baimon were present. Today, Baku washed off all the paint on his face and restored his most authentic self. He wore nothing but a straw skirt, and nothing else.

"Have you figured it out? Baku. Once inside, there is no room for repentance. King Kong reminded.

Baku grinned: "I've been waiting for this day for a long time. I'm going in, King Kong. I will get the power of the devil and raze the city of Sur to avenge Caesar! ”

King Kong nodded, took a few steps back and said, "May the souls of your ancestors take care of you." ”

Without hesitation, Baku plunged into the cave, which led to the depths of the tombs of the ancestors of the Baimon people. At the same time, demonic blood is also sealed there. The demons that have been passed down from generation to generation in the mouth of the worshippers are actually the blood of demons. Obtaining demonic blood is equivalent to obtaining demonic power. It's just that only a very small number of people know about this. And the people who know about it are not willing to use the blood of demons.

Because when you get demon blood, that person will also become a demon. No one wants to become a demon, but Baku is an exception. This man, whose heart has been burned by anger, has been willing to go to hell in exchange for the power of revenge. Perhaps two years ago, when his wife and children died in front of his eyes, the man had become a demon.

A demon born for revenge!

Baku made his way into the cave, and the road beneath his feet began to get rough. The road began to sharpen its edges, and when you stepped on it, the edges and corners of the stone immediately cut through the skin. Gradually, a bloody footprint appeared on the ground. And there will be many, many more footprints like this. R1058
