after being offered to the devil

Chapter 55 Provocation



Chapter 55 Provocation

==============

Lin Qiao realized that something was wrong, took a step back, and firmly blocked Arthur behind him in a protective posture.

It's just that Arthur's tall body and broad shoulders make Lin Qiao extraordinarily slender and thin.

Rye Village was covered by the sound of "rustling".

This is the sound of plants breaking through the ground and growing and spreading.

At some point, the entire Rye Village was covered, and even the windmills were densely entangled with vines and stopped turning.

Only the place where Lin Qiao and Arthur were standing was not flooded by vines, but those vines were just about to move, and it seemed that as long as they were given a chance, they would swarm them.

Lin Qiao's throat was a little tight, and he asked in a breathy voice, "What should I do?"

Arthur's eyes sank, and he looked forward over Lin Qiao's shoulder.

The green leaves stretched out, revealing the bright red fruit underneath, shining with light, as if countless pairs of eyes were watching.

Arthur held Lin Qiao's shoulder and walked to the front.

Every time he took a step, the surrounding darkness became thicker and thicker until it condensed into wisps of mist, lingering around his side.

At night, light fades and darkness rises.

Arthur raised his eyelids, the pupils of his eyes were golden, leaving only ice-like indifference.

The eyelids drooped slightly, and without further ado, the black mist rippled silently and spread in all directions.

But in the blink of an eye, the entire Rye Village has been enveloped.

In the dark, there seem to be two forces competing with each other.

The vines withered one crop after another.

But it didn't take long for new seedlings to break out of the ground, and soon grow into thick-strong vines again.

However, no matter how fast plants grow, they are no match for darkness under the darkness.

Just when the vines were about to retreat, the moon came to the middle of the sky.

Nice weather tonight.

There was no cloud and no wind, but strangely, there was not a single star twinkling, only a crescent moon hanging high.

The moon shines brightly, dispelling the black fog below.

The night was lifted, and the white moonlight shone down, covering the scenery in front of me with a layer of veil.

The vines seemed to draw power from the moonlight, becoming more twisted.The vines stretched upwards, covering the sky and the sun, casting a large shadow and becoming a ferocious monster.

Lin Qiao frowned and reminded in a low voice, "Arthur, be careful."

Arthur turned sideways, his profile was deep, and under the moonlight, his red hair was like blood.

His lips moved, as if he wanted to say something, but before he could speak, a voice came from the side.

"Joe." A light fell on Andy's shoulders, and the silver-white mithril armor was even more sacred.He said, "Joe, come here."

Lin Qiao: Come here if you say so?

Lin Qiao remained motionless, standing straight beside Arthur, without any intention of passing.

Andy was not annoyed when he saw it, and just said lightly: "Joe, it's still too late to turn around now, and the gods will forgive you."

Hearing the word "God", Lin Qiao looked over subconsciously.

Most of the church collapsed, and you can see a corner of the statue from a distance.

The statue lowered its head, with a soft and compassionate smile on its face.

Andy's eyes sank: "As long as you come here, in the future, you will still be the saint of the Holy Court of Light."

Lin Qiao: "?"

Could it be that he cares about the name of this saint?

Lin Qiao didn't even think about it, and said directly: "This saint girl should be whoever she likes!"

Andy's face was a little ugly.

In contrast, Arthur's brows and eyes stretched, and the corners of his lips curled up involuntarily.

Andy swept over Lin Qiao and Arthur, biting his tone: "Joe, you have been bewitched by the abyss, and only the light can save you."

Lin Qiao: "I don't need to be saved."

Andy is persuasive: "Darkness can never win against light. Joe, for the sake of our acquaintance, don't let yourself make the wrong decision."

Lin Qiao: "I don't think this is a wrong decision."

Andy was about to say something, when a voice suddenly echoed in the empty Rye Village.

Her voice was gentle and compassionate, with something inexplicably disliked, and even pity was a gift from above.

"The lost lamb, he was bewitched by the darkness, and only the holy purification can make him return from his lost path."

Based on Lin Qiao's understanding of the believers of the light, the sacred purification is roughly equivalent to being hanged on the gallows and burned aside.

What?You don't believe in the God of Light?

This is a disease that needs to be cured!

You ask how to treat it?Of course, after you die, there will be no such problem.

It is true that the root cause of the disease is eliminated from the root.

Lin Qiao looked towards the place where the voice came from.

Shrouded in holy light, a young man in a white robe came out slowly. There was a smile on his face, and everyone looked like "you don't understand, child".

People can't help but harden their fists.

Lin Qiao recognized that this was the God of Light.

Light and darkness are incompatible and cannot coexist.

It can be seen that Arthur's expression is indifferent, as if he doesn't take the God of Light seriously at all.

Lin Qiao poked it with his elbow.

Arthur's eyes turned: "Huh?"

Lin Qiao suggested in a low voice, "How about we run first?"

The enemy is strong and I am weak.

It's not ashamed to run.

Run away if you can't beat, and get back to the game later.

Arthur shook his head slightly.

Lin Qiao was a little anxious: "Why don't you run?"

Didn't you expect that Arthur's godly burden is so heavy?

Arthur calmly replied with three words: "I can't run away."

Lin Qiao was taken aback.

The vines squirmed in front of him, and a woman with a graceful figure stepped out.

The woman has long light blue hair and an olive branch-shaped hair crown on her head. She is tall and has medium-sized facial features. It is hard to tell her gender at first glance.

Moonlight shines.

A piece of clothing flapped down.

The sky is full of stars, shining brightly.

The star curtain was lifted.

The figure of the Moon Goddess emerged.

What appeared just now was the will of the gods, but now, the gods have truly descended.

This is a real godsend.

Fragmentary memories floated in my mind.

With a flash of inspiration, all the clues were connected in series.

A believer of the Goddess of Plenty once came to the Rye Village. In order to start a battle of faith, he gave the rye in the Rye Village a "blessing", causing everyone who tasted the rye to suffer from the plague dance.

After the conspiracy was exposed, he was not reconciled and tried to summon the goddess of fertility.

So, here is the "anchor" of the goddess of fertility.

Even in the territory of the God of Light, He can come here through the anchor point.

And the moon...the moon is everywhere.

Coupled with the God of Light awakened by Andy, a small rye village has gathered the will of four gods.

Lin Qiao lowered her eyes and glanced at the fragments of the godhead hanging on her wrist.

In a sense, the god of knowledge also participated in this party.

Of course, the gods have worked so hard to come here, and naturally it will not be as simple as saying hello and meeting.

Sweat dripped from Lin Qiao's palm.

Arthur said, it's not that he doesn't want to run, but he can't.

Arthur said that with the ability of the abyss, a god can be dealt with, but when the gods join forces, they are no longer opponents.

The word became a prophecy, and now the gods really joined forces.

Lin Qiao was puzzled.

With the selfish character of the gods, is it really possible to join forces without any grievances?

Thinking of this, he moved closer to Arthur's place.

He saw Arthur's face was stern and unwavering, as if he was not afraid of the cooperation of these gods at all.

Lin Qiao immediately took a reassurance, leaned over and said, "Do you have a solution?"

Arthur also replied in a low voice: "No."

Lin Qiao: "...?"

Lin Qiao said in disbelief, "Then you are still so calm?"

Arthur was at a loss: "Then what should I do?"

Lin Qiao gestured: "At least panic."

Arthur moved the corners of his lips, as if trying to make a flustered expression, but ultimately failed.

"It can't be done," he said.

Lin Qiao: "..."

Fortunately, he thought that Arthur had already figured out a solution, but it turned out that he just kept this expression habitually.

So now I can't run, I can't fight... It seems that I can't fight.

What should I do?

Lin Qiao panicked.

Arthur was very calm: "Hit it first, and then talk if you can't beat it."

Lin Qiao: The more I listen to it, the more unreliable it becomes.

The two people here were whispering to each other as if there was no one else around, and directly left the three gods aside.

God of Light: "..."

It was too insolent to ignore him.

Moon Goddess: "..."

Did no one care about such a cool appearance just now?

Goddess of Plenty: "..."

Anyway, he just came over to make up the number, didn't even think about playing, just watched the excitement and paddled.

Probably because he had been ignored for too long, the God of Light couldn't hold back, and stood up: "Lord of the Abyss, long time no see."

Arthur raised his eyelids and took a look, then gave a very perfunctory "hmm".

God of Light: "?"

Just react like this?

The God of Light suppressed the anger in his heart, and still pretended to be a good man: "Lord of the Abyss, you have spread darkness, death and curses on the mainland, and caused countless innocent people to die. As a god, shouldn't you feel ashamed?" ?”

Arthur: "No."

God of Light: "?"

Anyway, justify it.

He lowered his voice and condemned righteously: "You are simply obsessed. Don't you feel the despair of human beings? As a god, you should protect and protect human beings, instead of letting the continent fall into darkness and death for your own selfishness... "

Lin Qiao heard what the God of Light said was getting more and more outrageous, and couldn't help but stop him: "Wait."

The words of the God of Light were interrupted, and a trace of anger flashed across his brows.But in the self-cultivation of the gods, he will not care about an ant-like human being.

Anyway, after the Lord of the Abyss falls, killing this person is as easy as crushing an ant.

So he bowed his head condescendingly, shrouded in a faint holy light: "What do you want to say?"

Lin Qiao's expression was complicated, and he hesitated for a moment: "Uh..."

Seeing Lin Qiao's hesitation, the God of Light knew it in his heart.

He thought with great confidence that the reprimand just now must have been too deafening, making the poor lamb realize that only light is the right choice.

The God of Light immediately felt comfortable.

It doesn't matter whether the black-haired boy believes in the God of Light or not.

The important thing is that He can snatch believers away in front of the Lord of the Abyss.

For gods, faith is very important.

The act of snatching a believer face to face is undoubtedly a slap in the face of the other party.

Apart from the word "cool", there are no other words to describe it.

Thinking of this, the God of Light's eyes became softer, thinking that Lin Qiao was afraid of the presence of the Lord of the Abyss, so he dared not speak out what was in his heart.

So he encouraged, "Just say what you want."

Lin Qiao probed: "Did I really say that?"

God of Light: "Speak."

Lin Qiao: "You won't be angry, will you?"

God of Light: "No, no, no matter what you say, the god is magnanimous, so why would you be angry?"

As he spoke, he deliberately glanced at Arthur.

Lin Qiao took a deep breath, and his voice was crisp and clear, echoing under the night: "How can you scold yourself?"

God of Light: "?"

Lin Qiao: "Aren't you talking about yourself in what you said before?"

God of Light: "??"

Lin Qiao: "For your own selfishness, you started a war, plunged the mainland into death and darkness, and let innocent people die one after another—— these are all things you did?"

He deliberately said, "I didn't expect the God of Light to reflect on what he did, and his ideological consciousness is obviously higher than other gods!"

God of Light: "???"

After saying this, the other gods also recalled it.

The God of Light's words really wanted to accuse the Lord of the Abyss in order to be able to stand on the moral high ground.

However, everyone is well aware that the Lord of the Abyss has never done such a thing, and it is they, a group of gods, who have really done it.

how?

You, the God of Light, have picked up all the things that everyone has done?Now use this to condemn the Lord of the Abyss, and you may not be able to put this hat on their heads in the future.

The eyes of the Moon Goddess and the Harvest Goddess changed, something was wrong.

The alliance of the gods was not unbreakable in the first place, but now that they were provoked, it suddenly became precarious.

After all, the only one who wants to urgently solve the Lord of the Abyss is the God of Light, and the other gods pay more attention to immediate interests.

The reason why these two gods could be called was because of a wave of blood from the God of Light.

Forming an alliance for profit, naturally, they would not do so wholeheartedly.

Being able to arrive at the scene in time is already giving face.

The God of Light sensed that something was wrong with the atmosphere, and quickly said, "This human is talking sweet words, don't be fooled!"

Lin Qiao had tasted it to some extent, spread his hands, and said innocently: "I didn't say anything, you said everything, you have to admit it."

The God of Light was at a loss for words.

He didn't pay attention to the black-haired boy before, but he didn't expect to provoke the relationship between the gods with just a few words, making him flustered.

This person cannot stay.

The God of Light's eyes dimmed, and his killing intent flashed.

With a wave of his hand, countless light arrows condensed, piercing the sky with a "shua".

Cold wind blows.

The hair on the forehead was blown away.

A white light flashed in Lin Qiao's eyes.

With a movement of his fingers, a page of the book was turned over, forming a translucent light shield in front of him.

Ding ding ding.

The arrows of light shot in numbers - hitting the barrier with a crisp sound.

But blocked the first wave, or the second wave.

The mask was not as strong as expected, after the first round of light arrows, a crack appeared on it.

Before Lin Qiao could make up for it, the second round of light arrows arrived in no time.

The light is gentle.

But it was actually bitterly cold.

Lin Qiao's eyelashes flickered, trying to avoid it.

At this moment, a hand stretched out from behind.

To be honest, it wasn't a pretty hand.

The palm is wide, the knuckles are uneven, the fingertips are pitch black, and sharp nails extend out.

Open your finger slightly, and the menacing arrow of light condenses in mid-air, unable to move forward an inch.

Arthur's face was expressionless, his pupils were erected, and there was a bright golden light flowing inside.

He stared at the God of Light, his fingers closed.

"Crack" sound.

The tip of the light arrow was covered with a layer of black mist.

The mist spread, until the whole body of the light arrow became pitch black.

Arthur: "Go."

The sound fell.

The black arrow turned around and aimed straight at the God of Light.

A little cold light flashed.

Even the gods felt chills all over.

The God of Light waved his hand to block the light arrow.

But by accident, he was still entangled by the power of darkness, and there was a touch of gray on the fingertips.

Just like where there is light, there is shadow, and light overcomes darkness.

Darkness can also restrain light.

He knew that if there was a real fight, he would definitely not be Arthur's opponent, so he hurriedly called his teammates: "Come and help!"

The Goddess of Plenty had always been at odds with the God of Light, but now she was even more happy to see him suffer.

The Moon Goddess knew the horror of the Lord of the Abyss, she stood on the sidelines, and was ready to pick up the loopholes.

The God of Light guessed the thoughts of the two of them at a glance, and raised his voice to remind: "It was agreed before, do you want to break the oath?"

The face of the goddess of the moon changed slightly, and she exchanged a glance with the goddess of abundance.

You can still paddle just now, now that this sentence has been said, it is not easy for them to sit on the sidelines.

Just when they were about to make a move, they heard another clear voice: "Wait."

This is a bit familiar.

The gods stopped their movements and looked over involuntarily.

Moonlight falls.

The black-haired boy's face was fair and lustrous, and his eyes were black and white. Even in the face of the gods, he still stood upright.

Under the watchful eyes of the gods, he raised his hand to signal: "Can I say a word first?"

God of Light: "..."

This routine is a bit familiar.

It was the black-haired boy who said a word just now, which almost made him fall into a passive situation.

The Goddess of Plenty and the Moon Goddess didn't think so much, and they really didn't want to do it so quickly, so they said, "Go ahead."

Before Lin Qiao could speak, he was interrupted by the God of Light: "Don't say it!"

Lin Qiao looked at the God of Light, and then at the two goddesses.
