Lord of Enigma - Chapter 538

[Chapter 532 The last moment (four thousand words chapter!)]
“Gudu ~ Gudu”
The clear, phosphorescent spring water, along with the sound of swallowing, entered the man’s abdomen along the throat.
His body also began to mutate.
The body, which was originally embarrassed and dirty, seemed to have been washed by the spring water, but suddenly became clean and white, one after another, fish scales the size of thumbs grew, layer upon layer, and instantly covered the man’s legs, his lower half. The limbs, under the gaze of Tang Qi and Amanda, turned into fish tails.
And those fish scales, like gems, are crystal clear and glowing with a phantom brilliance that makes people unable to take their eyes away.
The upper part of the man’s body seemed to have been sculpted by an artist, so perfect that every line and outline was impeccable. The messy hair turned into tenacious gray-white strands that fell down, slightly covering the bewitching face.
Even if it was a cold and dead plain, it couldn’t hide the radiance that the man’s brand new body radiated to the extreme beauty.
“Mermaid?”
Almost at the same time, the two of them had this idea in their hearts.
It’s just that this “stunning” gaze just appeared, and it turned into a horror in the next second.
The almost bewitching beauty lasted for less than a few seconds, and the man began to rot.
All over the body, the thick yellow pustules, the deep red sores, and the juice that people can’t see directly began to drip down, and even more shocking, the man’s whole body began to turn into one after another, yellow “Bubble,” he began to evaporate.
This strange change, the man did not notice at all, he still buried his head in the spring, drinking mechanically.
Even he didn’t see it.
At the top of the slope, a monster as big as him but with a terrifying body was slowly crawling towards him.
This is a big fish.
Its upper body is a fish, but its lower body is a rotten spine. Each segment is connected to a pair of rotten arms. It is moving itself little by little. At the front, its gray-white, rotten The fish head slowly cracked open.
Messy, damp red hair fell like seaweed, and it was about to devour the man.
Those bubbles that steamed up and shattered in the sound of “bobo” seemed to release an atmosphere that made the “fish monster” extremely happy.
It’s not content with just smelling the scent, it’s the last step in the hunt.
At this moment, in Tang Qi’s eyes, the corresponding pieces of information overflowed.
[Extraordinary creatures: fish of carrion. 】
[Status: Attacking. 】
[Information Fragment 1: The embodiment of a fairly powerful desire, it likes to trap and kill its prey, its goal is to plunder the prey’s desire related to love, the prey will be immersed in a special state, and will be in a certain state of transformation. In an instant, it suddenly rots, and the prey will disappear into foam. 】
[Information Fragment 2: Before that, it will devour the prey in one step. 】
[Information Fragment 3: When the prey drinks the fluid flowing out of its body, whether it dies or not, the chance of the prey being rescued will drop. 】
…
“What a disgusting monster!”
Tang Qi spit out this sentence from a certain distance.
Then, he was no longer in parallel with Amanda, but like a phantom, flickering towards the slope.
At the same time, the rotten fish’s big mouth had swallowed most of the man’s head, and its gills stretched out a pair of arms, hugging the man roughly, trying to push him deeper into the throat, This “eating” scene is really unbelievable.
Until the next second, its eating scene came to an abrupt end.
A white palm, wrapped in blazing flames, landed directly on the “fish of rotten love”.
It’s still the same cold, empty touch, this time a little more damp, but none of this can stop the “burning” from coming.
The fat fuel meets the blazing flame, and the splendid fireworks bloom again in the dark plain.
The fish of rotten love that was attacked by the fire let out a silent wailing in the flames, and some funny pictures appeared. The arm that broke out from its gills pulled the man’s body and tried to push it out. What it wanted was probably Disengage from prey to re-enter the state of “nothingness”.
In that state, even the weakest “silent beast”, Tang Qi could not do anything.
Sadly, it’s stuck.
Until he was burned to death, most of the man’s head had not been spit out.
On the fish scales that were gradually disappearing, phantoms of life flickered, not only human beings, but also other creatures.
When the fish monster’s body completely disappeared, a “bubble” rose up and shattered in front of Tang Qi’s eyes. A strange object fell from it and fell into Tang Qi’s hands.
Before looking at the strange object, Tang Qi’s eyes first fell on his feet, the man who was gradually recovering.
Unexpectedly, he survived.
The features such as fish scales and fish tails disappeared. Except for falling into a coma because of weakness, Tang Qi did not see other sequelae in him.
Thinking of one of the reasons why Tang Qi was able to kill the fish monster quickly, it was also because the man’s huge head got stuck in the fish monster’s throat. Tang Qi couldn’t help laughing and said, “Huh? People with big heads are luckier?”
After muttering, Tang Qi didn’t hesitate for a long time. With a thought, he suddenly “spit out” a bloody cloth bag.
He casually fed the man a bottle of ordinary healing secret medicine, added some protection to his body, and threw it into his stomach bag.
“As long as I’m not trapped in this world for more than a few days, this guy should be able to survive without being corroded to death.”
After doing all this like flowing water, Tang Qi’s eyes fell on the new strange object in his hand.
Unexpectedly, it was a bottle of secret medicine.
Packed in a transparent glass bottle, a faint blue liquid.
[Wonderful Object: The Secret Medicine of Love. 】
【Quality: Excellent. 】
[Information Fragment 1: A special strange thing produced from the dark plains, it contains the essence and extraordinary power of the strange fish of rotten love, users only need to infiltrate their own love into the secret medicine and take it to any life , will allow the life to accept everything contained in it, the desires related to love, transmitted by the user. 】
[Information Fragment 2: It has an influence limit, a 100% chance of being below the legendary level, a certain chance of being saved by a legendary life, and a complete immunity by a demigod. 】
[Information Fragment 3: Its shelf life has a certain limit, from several hours to the death of the user, there is a certain probability. 】
…
Tang Qi was holding the secret medicine with a weird expression.
The previous “existence mask” has already made Tang Qi feel how strange and strange the strange things that fell after the strange death in this dark plain are.
Now, it’s even more amazing.
Such a disgusting monster dropped such a strange thing?
Tang Qi just wanted to think about the logic, but after thinking about it, he just gave up, everything is possible on the mysterious side.
However, the secret medicine of love in his hand reminded Tang Qi of Sally.
When she was in Winston Town before, Sally got a formula for “Merada Devotion Decoction” from the “Tree Monster”. Differently.
He was very suspicious that Esmeralda herself was a single mother and an old house girl who had never been in love at all.
This is evidenced by the comics that Tang Qi and Eva discovered in her principal’s office, which were not suitable for minors.
“Well, this thing has to be hidden.”
After a few thoughts flashed, Tang Qi realized that Amanda, who had turned into a “silent beast”, appeared by his side at some point, and without any abnormality, threw the secret medicine in his hand into the belly of gluttony.
“Let’s go!”
The voice fell, and the two continued to move forward.
…
Inside the thick, cold fog, a strange scene is being staged:
A simple room with air leaks everywhere, but in the center, there is a luxurious dining table. On the high-back chair in front of the table, sits a man with a dark body, his torso, limbs, head, teeth… everything All are black.
Even, there is no concept of “clothing” on his body.
A pair of hands like shadows, holding a knife and fork, a silver dinner plate is placed in front of it. Above the dinner plate, a young man in ragged clothes and a dull expression comes up. In the process, some faint light blooms on his body. , and then he turned into a suckling pig that was perfectly roasted and dripping with golden fat.
Wandering around, it came to the dinner plate, with a meat cleaver in Fatty’s hand, and with a “click”, a piece of tempting barbecue fell.
Almost in an instant, with a “squeak”, the roast meat fell into the shadow’s mouth and disappeared.
The suckling pig was silent, and turned back to the sluggish young man, and his whole person became extremely weak.
Immediately, the second person came up. This was a woman. During the walk, she turned into a “roasted lamb” in the dim light. She also held a meat cleaver and cut a leg of lamb for the shadow.
Just in that shadow, wrapped in lamb shanks, the moment you want to put it in your mouth.
Behind him, a pair of flaming palms grabbed his head violently, and in an instant, the shadow turned into a “burning man”, and the room and dining table disappeared little by little.
Burning Man is struggling, if he is willing to let go of the “roasted leg of lamb”, there is still hope of escape.
But unfortunately, it is not willing.
The brilliant light suddenly appeared, and immediately turned into black ashes.
The illusion dissipated, and Tang Qi and Amanda, as well as a man and a woman lying on the ground, were revealed.
Tang Qi glanced at the unlucky men and women who were lying on the ground and were captured by the “Dark Plain” from the outside world. They were swallowed up by part of their desires, a little weak, and would be accompanied by some sequelae, but their lives were saved.
Immediately, he looked at the strange object in his hand.
Still weird, it was a gray and white collar that was full of restraint and sealing.
[Wonderful Object: The collar of the desireless. 】
[Status: Normal. 】
[Information Fragment 1: A special strange thing produced from the dark plain, it contains the extraordinary power of the strange ‘jackal of greed’, it binds any life, it will deprive that life of almost all greed and desire, At that time, the life will fall into a state of desirelessness. 】
[Information Fragment 2: It has an upper limit, below the legend. 】
[Information Fragment 3: It also has short-term uniqueness. Before the dead greedy jackal is resurrected, the remaining greedy jackals will no longer drop this circle until the dead greedy jackal is resurrected. 】
Without looking at the pieces of information that continued to flash, Tang Qi took a few glances while holding the collar, and then threw it to Gluttony.
Although this “collar of the desireless”, on the mysterious side, it is definitely a very rare and special thing.
But in the past, not a short time, Tang Qi has seen a lot.
“A collar that turns one into a salted fish can no longer interest me.”
With a murmur in his heart, Tang Qi didn’t say hello to Amanda beside him, and walked straight ahead.
Amanda, still in the shape of a “silent beast”, followed silently.
Looking at the tacit understanding between the two, it is obvious that Tang Qi’s observation, shooting, killing monsters, saving people… This set of processes is already extremely skilled.
In the dark plain, the almost “invincible” desire manifested itself. After Tang Qi’s insight into the “weakness”, they all became prey to be slaughtered by him.
Of course, this is also related to the fact that Tang Qi has been attacking, and has not yet encountered the high-level embodiment recorded in the “Merlin Catalog”.
The sneak attack along the way, in addition to enriching Tang Qi’s “collection”, there are some other gains:
As a “leader”, although he complained about the guidance left by Merlin, Tang Qi was suspected of deceiving the “Secondary Hero”.
But as the two continued to go deeper into the plain, Tang Qi gradually realized that the seemingly unreliable way of identifying the path seemed to be… true.
As long as he believes in the bottom of his heart that the path ahead is correct, the correct path will appear at his feet.
The way of traveling full of “metaphysics” has good results.
Because as time passed, Tang Qi and Amanda began to experience thin fog… thick fog… turning to thinning… thinning… both of them began to realize something in their minds, and they would soon be able to Leave the dark plains.
Tang Qi even found that the sand and stone under his feet, which was originally gray and white, began to turn black and became a little fragile.
In the mist, the icy aura that was enough to soak through the marrow gradually dissipated.
Instead, there was a faint, burnt smell.
As if something was burning.
Just hearing a “click”, Tang Qi, who had just stepped on a black stone, seemed to have sensed it, and suddenly raised his head to look into the distance.
At the end of the plain, in the gap between the last layer of thin mist, the overwhelming black and red colors filled everything in the space. As a “furnace wizard”, Tang Qi was very familiar with what the bursting tones represented.
Just when a name was about to pop out of his mind.
At this sudden moment, a flood, tsunami-like icy aura came from behind the two of them, instantly dispelling all the smell of burnt stench, dragging the two into a cold fog that was more terrifying than ever before.
Silently, Amanda beside Tang Qi.
The body of the “Silent Beast” she transformed into suddenly collapsed.
The plaster ears, mouth, and nose fell from the sky, Amanda reappeared, and a gray-white mask fell.
Tang Qi had no time to pick it up, his face became extremely serious, he turned around suddenly, and stood in front of Amanda, with a “boom” in his eyes, and the phantom of the sun melting pot poured out.
Staring intently, a figure was lasing from the thick fog behind.
Its feet seemed to be covered with white light, ghostly, and it was still very far away one second, but the next second, it already appeared in front of Tang Qi and the two.
The extremely strong omen of crisis completely occupied the minds of Tang Qi and Amanda.
“Get out!”
Without any hesitation, Tang Qi shouted to Amanda suddenly.
And he himself, standing directly in front, with his eyes open, not dodging or evading, and that one had the same “body” as a human being, but without humanity, but a figure full of icy divinity, looking at each other. Together.
