I retired as a bestselling author

Chapter 39 The Book of the Wise

"What a rude junior... Seeing that you are a demon, why don't you know who this old man is?"

The black mist formed a group and slowly drifted towards Summerfield. He said bitterly, "It's a shame! It's a shame!!"

"As a demon, why haven't I heard the name of the old man? The old man thinks he is still very famous in the demon world."

Summerfield raised an eyebrow.

"Listen to the old man! The old man is very famous in the entire demon world, and it has been handed down from the first generation - the book of wise men."

Then the black mist oh no, the Book of the Wise approached the Demon King's body as if he had discovered something, shook, and then suddenly raised his head: "My God!! Extremely Demonic Physique!! It's been ten thousand years!! The old man is still the first It’s the first time I’ve seen this kind of extremely magical physique!!!”

Summerfield, who always thought he was immune to magic:? ? ?

The Book of the Wise looked at Summerfield's bewildered look, and couldn't help but raise his voice several times: "Magic immune constitution?? You actually think you are magical immune physique?!! Magic immune Physique is just that you can’t perceive magic power, but you can still be attacked by magic, can you, can you!! You’re the kind of person who is so good at being cheap!!!”

This heartbroken tone made the Demon King stunned for a moment.

"It's been so many years! I don't know what the demon world without the old man will be like! You little devil, come here and tell me the old man!"

Somerfield said calmly: "As a well-known symbol of the Demon Realm, the Book of the Wise is currently lying on the top floor of the Demon Realm library, guarded by more than ten demon generals. The previous demon kings have left orders, and there is no need to worry about major events in the Demon Realm." Activate the Book of the Wise..."

"Oh...that brainless Malthus..." Black Mist yelled in despair: "I knew it, I knew it must be that coward Malthus did it, such a big thing, but he actually wanted to hide it like this... What kind of wise man The book, while the old man was not paying attention, sealed the old man here, made a book of unknown content and threw it in the library to pretend to be the old man!!! It hasn't changed at all!! Bastard! Coward!!" Black mist scolded on the side.

Somerfield raised his eyebrows, he now somewhat believes that this cloud of black mist is really the legendary book of wise men.Malthus was the third Demon King, and he was also the one who left the order "Don't bother with nothing important".

Frankly speaking, Summerfield didn't have a good impression of this third-generation demon king named Malthus.It is indeed in response to Hei Wu's words, a coward.According to the classics, the Demon Realm was very prosperous three generations ago, until Malthus succeeded to the throne. At that time, the Temple of Light supported by the Heaven Realm was growing stronger. Malthus did not think about how to fight, but instead ordered the entire army to withdraw from the Human Realm and even completely closed the Demon Realm to humans. The entrance to the world.Only those who have reached the level of the devil can break through the passage of the human world, so that now there is no serious dark temple on the mainland, and most of the beliefs of human beings are entrusted to the God of Light.

Thinking of this, Summerfield shook his head. There is no need to mention the past, mainly because of the big things that the black mist who claimed to be the "Book of the Wise" said in front of him.

"Little ghost, think about it carefully. As the only book in the sky and the earth that can coexist with the book of wisdom in the heavens, the old man should have sanity after a thousand years, right?" Black Mist seemed to have seen Summerfield's Doubt, out of breath.

Also...it's not unreasonable...

"Such a boy, take me to see your current demon king. If he is an idiot like Malthus, then I'll just take this broken hand and wait for the world to be destroyed." Hei Mist said angrily.

"Hmm...Although he is a little young, I don't think he is an idiot." Summerfield recalled his only disciple and said uncertainly.

"Oh? Little devil, do you know this devil king?" The black mist floated over tremblingly again.

Summerfield counted the time and nodded affirmatively: "It should not be long since he took the throne. He is usually a little stupid, but he should be reliable in major matters. If it doesn't work, you can tell me first."

"Ah?" Hei Wu was a little confused: "Why are you telling me, what is your relationship with the Demon King?"

Somerfield rubbed his chin: "Should I be regarded as a master and apprentice? By the way, I was the devil three months ago, and now I am on the way to retire and travel... It should be... not so fast... Losing power... right...?" Thinking of the devil world The pissy Summerfield thought a little uncertainly.

Hei Wu didn't know what to say for a while, and after a while he cursed: "Are you sick?!"

After some babbling between the sickly Somerfield and the inhuman Book of the Wise, the conversation finally settled down.

"I didn't expect to let a demon with an extremely demonic physique become the demon king. These years must have killed the Quartet, right? After all, magic is like nothing to you."

"Where is it?" Somerfield said modestly, "By the way, why did you get brought to this kind of place, and it was said outside that it was Peridon who was locked inside, and the hell Peridon was killed long ago..."

"Hmph, didn't Malthus leave any letters?" Heiwu sneered: "But yes, even his cowardly temper would not admit that such hidden dangers appeared during his administration. Greedy, despicable , The devil king who came from a wrong path."

Such a big hatred?Summerfield raised an eyebrow.

Hei Wu was a little impatient: "Don't think that I said that because he sealed me. In fact, his throne has been wronged. As the eldest son of the devil, the younger son was born with one dead and one born with another. If one dies, and he is the only heir in the end, wouldn't he be the next Demon King?"

...is there still such an operation?

"Don't look at how he didn't recognize his brother when he attacked his younger brother. In fact, he was very timid. Why did you think I was sealed in this hand? Back then, the three worlds of heaven, man and devil had not been completely separated. Nathaniel as a The era of the devil has just passed, and you should know that the era of Nathaniel is called the nightmare of the gods. The main god did not know why he went crazy and drove all the continents out of the Figoxili continent. The brain is not working like the dark god chose to resist, and you can see it, the soul has become pieces and I don’t know where it fell. One piece was fused by Nathaniel, and Nathaniel took control of it The power of the dark law thus led the demons and became the first generation of demon kings."

Hei Wu's tone was very unhappy: "At that time, the continent had not been divided into three parts. The disappearance of the gods caused the loss of faith. The temples of the gods such as the god of life and the god of war were becoming dilapidated. When Malthus succeeded, the light The temple and the dark temple already exist side by side on the entire continent."

"But there are always people who are dissatisfied. The whole thing started with the summoning technique invented by someone who wanted to bring the God of Life back to this continent. How can human spells summon the real god? The summoned is One is nothing more than an unknown creature dressed in the skin of a god. Everyone named him 'Froxstein', which means someone who should not exist. It is also the so-called evil god."

The black mist flashed: "There is no second god on the mainland, so the evil god Froxstein can be regarded as walking sideways on the mainland. At that time, almost all the top masters in the whole continent were sent out to crusade against the evil god Froxstein. Angry Froxstein split the territory of the mainland, leading to the complete separation of the Three Realms of Heaven, Man and Demon. Yes, it is such an exaggeration! The group of masters almost died before they barely sealed Froxstein, and the keys were divided into four. ...Because the demons and celestials were no longer on the mainland at that time, the keys to the seals were handed over to the four races of humans, elves, dwarves, and orcs. Once the four seals are all opened, Froxstein will wake up again Come."

Summerfield finally restrained his smile at this time.

The Book of the Wise didn't care about his attitude, and continued: "Actually, Malthus was at the scene at the time. According to the old man's thinking, Malthus should take a key and add a hundred and eighty to the seal and throw it into the abyss. You know , Jumping into the abyss below the level of a demon king is simply courting death. As long as he keeps his mouth shut, no one will know where the key is after he dies. In this way, the keys will never be together, and the seal will never was opened, but..."

Summerfield understood: "He refused."

"Yes, that coward. In fact, everyone knows that as long as the key is still on the same continent, the seal will be opened again sooner or later. People with problematic brains will appear in every era. But Malthus thought that the demon world has become its own. There is no need for the world to help the mainland and he refused. Because he was afraid that if something went wrong, he would become a sinner for the whole continent. It’s funny if you say it. When he robbed the throne, he was as cruel as a ghost, and when he really had to fulfill the king’s obligations When I was doing it, I hid behind and said some reasons that didn't even make it to the stage!"

"Maybe it was because I was afraid that I would do some tricks after returning to the Demon Realm. On the way back to the Demon Realm, he abandoned me in the space passage, and I ran into the right hand that was cut off by the second generation of Demon King by accident. Hiding in, I didn't expect to be put on a holy resistance ring by the Temple of Light and slept all the way until now."

Speaking of this, Hei Wu breathed a sigh of relief: "Okay, kid, I've finished what I have to say, what are you going to do now? Do you quietly return to the Demon Realm as if nothing happened, or find a way to investigate the four The whereabouts of the sealed key?"

"You don't need to look it up." It took a while to digest the amount of information, and Somerfield rubbed the bridge of his nose wearily: "The key of the orc family was lost a long time ago, and the key of the elf family was also lost recently. Now There are dwarves and human keys left, Xie... People from the Celestial Clan went to the Dwarves before, but there has been no news, I guess it’s bad luck, now we can only see if the human key is still there.”

The Book of the Wise was dumbfounded.After a while, he still found his voice, and he was furious: "Get out! Get out of here!! Just pretend that I didn't say what you said just now!!! I want to spend the rest of my life in this hand!!!"
