Chapter 49 Despicable
Chapter 49 Despicable
==============
Lin Qiao felt the confinement on his body loosen, and the black shadows around him also slowly receded.
He breathed a sigh of relief.
Although Arthur looked indifferent now, he was still innocent and easy to deceive.
Just say a few words and you will believe it.
Thinking of this, Lin Qiao turned sideways and faced the darkness.
The figure approached, and the outline gradually became clear, followed by a cold breath.
As soon as he raised his head, he met the pair of indifferent vertical pupils.
—he is being stared at by the abyss.
Lin Qiao's lips moved, wanting to say something, but before he could speak, a tail wrapped around his wrist.
The temperature of the tail was icy cold, and it was covered with fine black scales, which scratched across the white skin, bringing a numb itching.
The tip of the tail raised slightly and brushed against Lin Qiao's cheek.
On this continent, snakes represent disaster, evil and bad luck.
No one likes such a cold and unforgiving creature.
Once approached by snakes, only fear and disgust appear on their faces.
But Lin Qiao is different.
After seeing that tail, not only was he not afraid, but he showed a look of surprise.
"It's you." Lin Qiao stretched out his finger towards the tail.
The tip of the tail seemed to be shy, and gently avoided it, and then tentatively, winding it up cautiously.
The scales are slightly open, with sharp streamers shining on the edges.
Lin Qiao couldn't help laughing, and stopped: "Wait, itchy."
The tip of the tail tilted its head, as if to confirm whether it could do so.
Lin Qiao held down the tail to keep it from moving around.
But the tail had its own idea, and slowly rubbed against Lin Qiao's palm.
Lin Qiao: "Okay, okay..."
Lin Qiao was playing with Tail so hard that he didn't notice Arthur who was standing aside.
Arthur's face darkened, and he moved his fingers.
The tail froze for a moment, as if being pulled by a force, and fell directly into Arthur's palm, unable to move.
Arthur narrowed his eyes.
The tail that gets in the way, it's better to break it off.
Tail:?
Do you want to eat this vinegar too?
Arthur's fingers tightened and he pinched his tail.
Tail immediately raised his hands in surrender, expressing that he would be obedient.
Arthur let go of his hand.
The tail slid to the side aggrieved, and closed itself.
The way of autism is still very special. It is to draw circles in the corner, draw and draw, and tie a knot.I couldn't untie it, and kept thumping on the ground.
Arthur: "..."
Lin Qiao: "..."
Tail: qaq
The tail is probably the embodiment of part of Arthur's will, clumsy, simple and pitiful.
Lin Qiao: "Do you need help?"
—referring to help untie the knot on the tail.
Arthur's tone was stiff: "No."
Saying that, he swept his wings with his wings, and swept his tail into an invisible corner in disgust.
Without the tail here to mediate the atmosphere, the darkness fell into a dead silence again.
Lin Qiao raised his eyelids and took a sneak peek at Arthur.
Unexpectedly, Arthur had been staring at this side, and he was caught straight away.
Lin Qiao was a little embarrassed, and his eyelashes trembled slightly: "It's just like this... If you don't believe it..."
The words are not finished yet.
The darkness that had remained calm became active, like a pot of boiling water, bubbling all the time.
Before Lin Qiao could react, she fell into a cold and strong embrace.
Dark red hair swept across the tip of his nose, and immediately after, he felt a sense of weightlessness.
He is falling.
Keep falling.
until the abyss.
……
far away.
Everything that happened was beyond Andy's expectations.
He clearly watched the abyss approaching aggressively, and was about to pull that poor black-haired boy into the boundless darkness.
But after waiting for a while, there was no more text.
The turbulent darkness subsided, unexpectedly tender and lingering.
After an unknown amount of time, the imaginary explosion did not happen, the darkness receded like a tide, and the god and the boy disappeared at the same time.
Andy frowned, let the Knight of Light push away, and walked to the open space alone.
I saw a round bead lying on the open space.
The beads swayed tremblingly, the mist inside flowed densely, and the brilliance was restrained.
What is carried inside is nothing but a wisp of the God of Light's thoughts.
Andy bent down and picked up the bead.
The moment he touched the bead, his eyes were covered by a hazy mist.
In the mist, a pair of golden vertical pupils were indifferent and dead silent.
This is the gaze of the gods.
He didn't even target Andy, just a casual glance, which already made him tremble like falling into an ice cave.
Fear spread.
Andy had the idea of retreating, and even began to question the decision of the God of Light-can he really kill a god?
The gap between man and god is like a chasm.
One is an ant and the other is an elephant.
Even if the ants do all kinds of calculations, they can't hurt a little bit of the elephant's fur, and they can't even attract the elephant's attention.
Before he knew it, Andy's faith began to crumble.
If he proceeded step by step and followed the plot in "God Descends", he would first face the God of Knowledge, and then kill the Goddess of Plenty and the Moon Goddess. After knowing the greatness and vulnerability of the gods, when he faced the Lord of the Abyss, You won't shrink back and doubt like you do now.
All because the God of Light was in a hurry.
After learning the prophecy, he couldn't wait to plot against the Lord of the Abyss, so that he was not fully prepared.
However, in the final analysis, it was because of Lin Qiao's appearance.
His existence flapped the wings of the butterfly, and unconsciously changed the trajectory of the stars, leading to an unexpected future.
……
Lin Qiao opened his eyes again.
What caught my eye was a pitch-black wall.
The walls are made of dark stones, airtight, with only one tall and narrow window, from which one can see a blood moon hanging high outside.
Lin Qiao felt that this scene looked familiar.
Looking again, isn't this the place where he was sacrificed by the cultists before?
Back to the beginning again?
Lin Qiao looked around: "Arthur?"
The voice echoed in the room, but there was no response.
He stood up, opened the door and went out.
The corridor is long and narrow, with no end in sight.
Lin Qiao tried to go out, but before he had gone far, he came to a fork in the road.
The road was complicated, and Lin Qiao was worried that he would not be able to find it once he walked out, so he wanted to retreat.
As a result, when I turned around, I couldn't find my way back.
Lin Qiao was a little confused.
His sense of direction was not very good, but now that the light is dim, he can't tell the way even more.
I had to fumble along the route I remembered.
But for some reason, the road is getting more and more sideways.
Lin Qiao's eyes were darkened, and he just felt that something was wrong. In order to avoid going all the way to the dark, he simply stopped.
Looking at the familiar yet unfamiliar road in front of him, Lin Qiao had a deep question - where did Arthur go?
Arthur brought him here, so he wouldn't just leave him alone, would he?
Lin Qiao leaned against the cold wall and decided to test it out: "Arthur, are you there?"
In the deepest darkness, a tail flicked slightly.
Lin Qiao deliberately lowered her voice, as if she was being coquettish: "Arthur, it's so dark and cold here, I'm a little scared."
The corridor was deep and the sound echoed.
Lin Qiao waited for a while, but seeing that there was no response, he continued his efforts and muttered in a low voice, "At least light a lamp for me."
The voice fell.
Arthur still didn't show up.
But behind Lin Qiao came a "squeak", and a kerosene lamp was lit, and the warm light shrouded his side, forming a halo.
Lin Qiao touched the tip of his nose.
After the test just now, he was sure that Arthur was watching him secretly, but for some reason, he refused to show up.
Do you want to see him?
Or do you hate the bright breath on him?
Lin Qiaoan took a break for a while, and made another request: "Arthur, I'm so hungry."
He lifted his chin slightly, his eyes were black and white, and there was a wet redness at the end of his eyes, which was very pitiful.
"I want to eat apple pie."
The figure in the darkness paused for a moment.
Because the first time Lin Qiao presented him with apples, he always associated apples with Lin Qiao.
The two do have similarities.
It's all crisp and sweet, and very delicious.
Lin Qiao is like an apple hanging on a branch, tender and crisp, you can feel the sweet and sour smell just by looking at it, tempting people to reach out and pick it off.
His eyes wandered.
With a thought, the black mist surged and parted, and a brand new path appeared.
At the end of the road there is a door.
The door was half-closed, orange light flowed out from the gap, and the brisk sound of the violin could still be heard.
Lin Qiao walked to the door.
click.
The door opens.
Unlike the cold and dead corridors of the castle, the tone of the room is warm.
A fireplace was inlaid on the wall directly opposite, and the flames inside were dancing and crackling.Next to it is an alchemy record player, the stylus is pressed, and the record engraved with alchemy slowly rotates, playing the tune of the violin.
Further inside, there is a long table.
A layer of red velvet tablecloth hangs down, and bone china plates are placed neatly.
There were two empty seats at the table, and a half glass of red wine was poured in front of one of them, as if waiting for someone to sit down.
Lin Qiao opened the seat and sat on it.When he lowered his head, he saw an apple pie in front of him.
The layer of bread wrapped on the outside is soft, and the cheese cheese is poured on it, which melts slightly and exudes a sweet aroma.
The apple pie has been cut, the inside is golden and sweet, and the liquid like honey is flowing.
Lin Qiao was actually not hungry, he just wanted to find an excuse to trick Arthur out, but now that he really saw the apple pie in front of him, he couldn't help but want to have a bite.
He picked up one of them.
With a light bite, the mouthfeel is first of meringue, followed by sweet and sour apples.
It's a little hot.
But this temperature just stimulates the sweetness of caramel and cheese.
Lin Qiao licked the corner of her lips: "Arthur, this is delicious, do you want it?"
Lin Qiao held a piece of pie, and handed it to the seat opposite, with burning eyes, as if there was a real person sitting opposite.
……
dark place.
The tail flicked on the ground and slapped, as if to remind.
A pair of eyes opened silently, watching all this.
The corners of the black-haired boy's lips were stained with crumbs of apple pie, exuding a lustrous luster, and he knew enough sweetness at a glance.
Tail urged anxiously.
go out.
Go out and stick with Jojo.
Arthur snorted coldly, and directly pressed his restless tail.
Tail asked: Don't you want to post?
Arthur: "..."
Of course I don't want to.
Rather... I don't know how to face Lin Qiao.
He is very confused.
Originally, he thought that Qiao Qiao betrayed him and fell into the embrace of the abyss, so he could treat Qiao Qiao so recklessly.
But now I know that Qiao Qiao was forced to do this, and it was because of His absence that he was forced to believe in the light.
All mistakes come from him.
All in all... sorry.
Tail tilted and head tilted: Will the gods be embarrassed too?
The gods are all aloof, arbitrary, and never do anything wrong.
Even if you do something wrong, no one will blame you.
But... Lin Qiao seems to be different.
Arthur was particularly concerned about Lin Qiao's opinion.
If Lin Qiao is sad, he...will be sad.
Dark creeps.
Arthur raised his wrist, and a pale and weird palm appeared in front of him.
In order to gain the belief of human beings, other gods have long abandoned the most primitive form and simulated an appearance that is more acceptable to human beings.
And Arthur doesn't need believers, so he doesn't care about appearance.
The knuckles of His fingers were bent, sharp claws extended from the fingertips, black scales were dotted sporadically on his pale wrists, and they slowly opened with the frequency of breathing.
This is what he looks like.
Also, he was afraid that Lin Qiao would hate this appearance.
This appearance is worse than a demon.
Evil, twisted, and cursed beings.
If it was before, Arthur would naturally not care about other people's gazes, neither fear nor awe would affect him.
But Lin Qiao is different.
Lin Qiao is the first person who cares about him and loves him dearly.
For a long time, the abyss has been feared by humans and cursed by the gods.
Surrounded by cold despair, all that can be found here is darkness and death, and all beautiful words have nothing to do with it.
From Lin Qiao's body, he felt warmth for the first time.
But... He actually doubted Lin Qiao.
When he saw the mark of light on Lin Qiao's body, he didn't even hesitate, and decided that he had been betrayed.
For the first time Arthur felt that he was really despicable.
Lin Qiao relied on him so much, and in the darkness, the first thing he thought of was his name—not the Lord of the Abyss, but Arthur.
And He... only pays attention to faith.He didn't think about how Lin Qiao could resist the gods alone.
The more Arthur thought about it, the less he dared to face Lin Qiao, the wings on his back retracted, and he gathered himself into a ball.
The tail swam anxiously, using the tip of the tail to grab and pull Arthur.
And Arthur was unmoved.
The tail became anxious.
Are you not going?
If not, I will go!
Arthur moved, holding down his tail firmly to prevent it from jumping out.
Tail:……
you've changed.
He is no longer the previous Lord of the Abyss!
The black crow's wings trembled, and a gap was separated.
Arthur understood the meaning of the tail and froze for a moment.
Has he changed?
seems like it.
The previous master of the abyss didn't care about everything, even if he was imprisoned in the abyss by the gods, he didn't bother to resist.
He is cold and unfeeling, feeling only negativity.
But now, everything is different.
He stepped out of the abyss.
Seeing a different scenery, picking off crisp apples, hugging a warm and soft embrace, and... falling in love.
He has a dedicated believer.
He also had a god to believe in.
Arthur parted a ray of mind and looked over.
The flames of the fireplace danced and sparks came out.
In the melodious and brisk tune, there was a sudden "crack" crackling sound.
The wine glass fell to the ground and broke into several pieces.
The dark red wine spilled out, exuding a mellow aroma.
Lin Qiao didn't realize it, and lay down on the table.
Probably because of the alcohol, his cheeks were flushed, his neckline was open, and his delicate collarbone was also stained red.
he's drunk.
He muttered incomprehensible words in his mouth, as if he had lost consciousness.
Even so.He was still restless, and slid down the red velvet tablecloth, almost hitting the cold shards of glass on the ground.
Arthur didn't even think about it, he broke through the shadows, and reached out in time to pull the black-haired boy into his arms.
click-
The shards of glass were directly crushed to pieces.
Before Arthur could react, someone grabbed his wrist.
A pair of black and white eyes opened, and the inside was clear, without any drunkenness.
He said, "I got you."
