"I can not accept you as a believer. ”

As the words fell, Ingres snapped into the cruel scholar.

Its statue now spread its wings widely, and it was floating right in front of Ingres, and the grandeur was overwhelming. And its eyes, full of wisdom and cruelty, were looking down on itself.

"As long as you promise me one thing, I will let you go. The cruel scholar looked at Ingres condescendingly.

"What's the matter?" Ingres looked at the cruel scholar warily, he didn't think there was anything in himself that could be seen by the cruel scholar, except for ...... Soul.

Ingres's mind naturally can't escape the induction of a cruel scholar.

Speaking of which, it is indeed very interested in Ingres's soul, but the cruel scholar has lived so long that he knows some of the rules of the powerful that exist widely in various worlds. Ingres's soul, apparently regarded as its own by a powerful being, in this case, it would not even dare to mark Ingres as its own believer, let alone possess it.

However, the inability to obtain Ingres's soul does not hinder the desire of cruel scholars to study it.

After the previous temptations, it was clear that as long as it did not threaten the soul, that being would not appear.

The cruel scholar even saw the flame mark of the Abyssal Dragon on Ingres's body, which showed that Ingres's physical body was not actually under the protection of that powerful being.

If this situation is followed, it can actually find a way to imprint its own mark on Ingres's flesh. However, the cruel scholar still held back, and it noticed that Ingres's right hand was obviously a little strange, and the green stripes from before were also integrated into his right hand. It can be seen that Ingres's body and soul are actually related to that great being in some way, but the soul is more taboo than the body.

The cruel scholar weighed it in his heart, and in the end he did not choose to delegate his real name mark.

Rather, it was intended to observe Ingres in another way.

......

After Ingres asked the doubts in his heart, the cruel scholar did not answer him, but slowly flapped his wings and slowly lowered the originally upturned tail.

The tail of the cruel scholar is a pointed hook with books hanging from it. At this point, as it lowered its tail, the book on it naturally fell, floating in front of Angel out of thin air.

These books are not real books, or statues made of some kind of material.

Ingres looked at the cruel scholar suspiciously, not understanding what it meant.

And the cruel scholar's response was just to use his tail and gently tap the pile of books. With a crisp sound, a crack appeared in the book in front of Angels.

As the mottled stones fell, Ingres saw what was hidden in the center of the book's carving.

A palm-sized statue, but the content of the statue is a demon with wings folded...... It happens to be the original appearance of the statue in front of you, and it is conceivable that when this wings are spread, it must be a miniature version of the statue of a cruel scholar.

"As long as you take it, I'll let you go. The brutal scholar's voice echoed directly in Ingres's head.

"What is this?" Ingres' question did not receive any response.

Angel could only ask, "If I agree to your request, how long do I need to carry it with me?" and how does it affect me?"

"I've been interested in any research topic for no more than 200 years. Cruel Scholar: "As for how it affects you...... It depends on how you use it. ”

At this point, the cruel scholar let out an eerie chuckle. As if to tell Ingres that once he uses this statue, the consequences may be unpredictable.

But until now, Ingres didn't even know what the statue was, let alone use it.

Also, what did the cruel scholar mean before that he was to take "me" as a research subject? So, you need to carry this statue for at least two hundred years?

"You're right. The cruel scholar nodded, responding to Ingres' thoughts.

Ingres is to cruelty what an ant is to a human. It has a bit of interest in Ingres, but this interest is not in Ingres itself, it is purely a desire to study ...... Oh no, I don't dare to study it for the time being, but I want to observe.

"And what if the statue is damaged?" Ingres asked.

"If the statue is really broken, that's good, I wish you early relief and don't have to wait until two hundred years from now. The cruel scholar paused, changing his cold voice to a meaningful tone: "I'm looking forward to the day when you can break it." ”

Apparently, the cruel scholar understood that Ingres was intending to break it himself.

However, this "descent" is the embodiment of its function as a demon god, so to speak, some kind of deeper abyss law. Not to mention Ingre, even if you change to the Lord of Depth, you may not be able to break it.

If Angel really broke it, the cruel scholar would not pursue it, because the energy level of those who can break the falling objects is definitely stronger than their own.

"How's it going, can you figure it out?" the cruel scholar could see that the scales in Ingres's heart had begun to shift. However, this kind of 'promise' has a completely different effect when you think about it in your heart and say it in your mouth.

Angels was silent. He looked at the statue floating in front of him, and then at the terrifying power of the demon frozen by time.

Obviously, if you don't agree to the cruel scholar, you will be reduced to this demon's meal in the next second.

If a cruel scholar had made him a believer, he might have refused. But if it's just a statue, it doesn't seem impossible.

It's just that Ingres is worried about whether there will be something wrong with this statue? For example, after taking the statue himself, he formed a part of some kind of "ritual", and in the end he still became a believer in cruel scholars?

"If I want to kill you, it's easy. The voice of the cruel scholar reached Angels' ears at this time.

Ingres inexplicably felt that the reason why the cruel scholar said this was not to threaten himself, but to tell him that the gap between them could not be calculated, like a drop of water to the sea, like sand and dust to a mountain, under this powerful gap, it did not need to play tricks if it wanted to do anything.

Ingres pondered for a moment and looked at the cruel scholar, "If I agree to your request, will I be able to leave La Sudran alive?"

How could a cruel scholar not understand what Ingres was thinking, Ingres already had a choice in his heart, but he just wanted to seek the right to survive for himself before he made his promise.

"Really greedy human, I can only guarantee that you will leave this hall alive, but whether you survive in Rasudran or not, what does it matter to me?" the cruel scholar paused: "Of course, you can try to use it. ”

The cruel scholar reached out and pointed to the statue floating in front of Ingres.

However, Ingres didn't think much about it, he knew very well that if he really reached the point where he wanted to ask the demon god for help, it was estimated that the reward that the demon god asked for must be his soul.

"It's time to make a decision, my power has been projected, and I'm going to reclaim my power. ”

Once the power is retracted, the frozen area here will obviously be liberated again.

At that time, if Ingres does not choose, there is only a dead end.

Angel thought about it, and nodded considering the reality.

"Okay, I accept. ”

The cruel scholar narrowed his eyes: "Very good, the promise has been fulfilled." ”

......

Iadase witnessed Ingres move from feeding Jupiter, to being chased by Jupiter, to being frozen in the halls, and the statue of the cruel scholar moving...... This scene made Iyadase feel surprised.

Before, the arrival of that uninvited guest didn't make the cruel scholar react much, why is it making such a big move now?

Could it be because of the owner of this little psychedelic shop?

Iadase looked at Angel, and from the time when Ingres's soul was out of the body before, Iyadase could see that Ingress was not a native at all, but a human who was good at disguise.

For Ingres to be human, Iyadase didn't react much, and for it, whether it was an aboriginal or a human, there was no difference in nature.

However, it is very interesting that a human can actually awaken a demon.

Iadase's impression of Ingres ends there, but now it seems strange that this human can make the cruel scholar come to consciousness for the second time.

Iadamasa looked at Angel with an inquiring gaze, wanting to see what was so strange about him.

Nothing was found, though.

At this point, the space in the hall froze for a while, and Iadase didn't know how long it would last, but if there were no accidents, Ingres would have been torn to shreds by Jupiter when the freeze frame was over.

'No surprises' is the premise...... However, Iyadase inexplicably felt that if he was not fixed sooner or later, but at this moment, an accident should happen.

Sure enough, when Iadamase thought so, the cruel scholar in the center of the hall seemed to have reached some kind of deal with Angell, and with the birth of a pact, a fire suddenly emitted from the cruel scholar's body.

As the flames flew, the statue of the cruel scholar in the center was reduced to pieces, and at the same time, an even smaller statue fell into Ingres's palm with a streamer.

The frozen hall returned to normal as the statue turned to dust.

However, Jupiter did not fly to Angels and attack him as before, but was swept by the glowing dust, directly to the ground, and smashed into a deep pit.

And once again fell into a coma.

Ingres gasped and slumped to the ground.

At the same time, the light patterns at the entrance of the hall also dissipated.
