It's all because of the aftereffects of acting!

"You should know how you got here and what kind of world this is, right?"

Everyone nodded hesitantly. ^Seconds, cockroach\festival^Xiao+tax+wang+ -sin_Xin+Zhang·Jie?埂+Xin!哙?

"As I just said, Pales has been hunted by Amon for thousands of years, which means you have been here for thousands of years... Oh, the only Mr. Longzel has been here for more than a hundred years."

Edward told them directly and frankly, "In other words, each of you is actually an elderly person."

Mobet murmured, "This... Actually, we already knew this. Before I met Longzel, I lived in a place with humans and intelligent races. I got married again and again, and watched my wife grow old, weak, and die again and again. We would forget our purpose and live an ordinary, ordinary, but happy and relaxed life for decades or hundreds of years."

"But we are all only Sequence 5. Theoretically, it is impossible for us to live this long, so this must be some special rule of this world."

Edward nodded and said, "Yes, but this rule of 'immortality' is only limited to this world. Once you leave here and return to reality, the time you have experienced will make you experience thousands of years passing in an instant, and that will also mean the arrival of death."

He spread his hands and said, "In other words, leaving here means death."

At this moment, even the honest Groselle roughly understood what Edward meant, and everyone fell silent.

After a while,

Mobet asked, "Why did the old man ask you to come to me?"

"Congratulations, you found the blind spot. Since I'm here, I naturally have a way for you to continue to live after you get out." He paused for a moment, "Well, strictly speaking, it's not 'alive' in the true sense, but exists in the form of evil spirits."

Snowman, the ascetic monk who had been silent the whole time, said in a deep voice: "Are you going to use some method to keep our spirits alive and continue to exist as evil spirits?"

"That's right."

As expected of a person from the ancient sun god era, he is well-informed.

"However, this method is often only suitable for those who are stronger than demigods, and it also requires a certain amount of luck. For example, we are only Sequence 5. Once the body dies, even if the spirit is preserved, it has already left a mark in the underworld and will be sucked into the underworld uncontrollably. Even if we are lucky enough to become an evil spirit, we will often become irrational and no different from death. 0~0,晓+税·蛧. -追!蕞\歆~璋~洁,"

His words startled Edward. Is it so complicated to become an evil spirit? Then, was my previous thought just taken for granted?

But now that things have come to this, I have to give it a try.

Edward then said, "I don't know the details. When you believe in my Lord and he leads you into His kingdom of God, you will know it naturally."

Snowman was silent for a moment. "I'm sorry, I only believe in the Lord who created everything, the omniscient and omnipotent God."

"Don't worry, your Lord won't care about such a small matter, because He has a good relationship with the one I believe in."

What Edward said was not nonsense. Anyway... in the future, his relationship with the real creator was indeed pretty good.

After a pause, he smiled and said, "Besides, you can also believe in my Lord and keep your original beliefs. My Lord doesn't really care about these things."

Whether you care or not is another matter, but the Elf King, the Giant King and the Ancient Sun God are all dead, and the dead are the greatest.

Snowman was stunned, with a look of doubt in his eyes, and he said hoarsely: "Lord... Is He really still here?"

He used the vague word "in" instead of "alive".

Apparently, he had long guessed from his communication with others that the ancient sun god might have already "died". This was not only because the later comers Mobet and Longzel had never heard of the Lord, but also because among the seven gods they mentioned, several clearly held the authority that should have belonged to the Lord.

"Whether He is there or not, won't we know when we get out?"

Snowman fell silent.

"Okay, that's the situation. I won't force anyone except Mobet. This is the name of the Lord I believe in. Just say His name and you can go to His kingdom."

He handed the parchment with three paragraphs written on it to Mobet.

Mobet was stunned: "Why do you force me?"

"I've already said that I'm here to find you on behalf of Pales. I can't just take your bones with me to find him. Uh, but... regardless of whether you become evil spirits or not, it seems that your bodies will turn into bones."

"…"

At this point, although everyone was still skeptical about Edward, they could more or less see that he probably had no ill intentions, otherwise there would be no need for him to waste so much time talking - of course, there was also a possibility that he was just teasing them.

But, there are no such boring people.

As soon as he thought of this, Mobet's heart tightened: No! There really are people who are so boring!

It's Amon!

He pretended to be Amon right from the start, making others think that he was not Amon. After gaining everyone's trust and giving everyone enough hope, he suddenly revealed his identity, that he was Amon.

This is so like something Amon would do.

What a pity!

Longzel was the first to express his opinion: "I am willing to believe in that great existence."

As a soldier of Loen, he did not have any burden in terms of faith.

Siatas frowned and thought for a while, "Sorry, I can't believe in a false god..."

Edward took out the Book of Scourge and shook it. "Oh, I actually have a good relationship with your elves' Queen of Scourge. This is what she gave me."

The female elf was visibly stunned when she saw the book. "But, according to Mobet and Longzel, our elves should have... They don't even know that He existed. How do you know Him?"

"The elves are indeed close to extinction, and Queen Cosinamu has long since fallen, but she is not completely dead. Instead, she left a backup plan in one of your elves' ruins, trying to find an opportunity to revive."

Edward looked at her and smiled, "But, there haven't been any elves outside for many years. Even if there are still elves, they are probably just descendants thousands of years apart. Do they really have the ability or willingness to help your queen?"

Siatas immediately fell into the same hesitation as the ascetic monk - she naturally hoped to help the queen, but the question was, was what this person said true?

What if he stole the Book of Scourge from the Queen and he is actually the enemy of the elves, and he deceived them into believing in him in order to deal with the elves?

The giant Groselle laughed loudly and said, "I am willing to do so too. I heard from Longzel that the giants outside have long been extinct. I feel that if I can survive, I must shoulder the legacy of the giants."

Edward looked at the simple and honest giant in surprise. The "inheritance" you mentioned doesn't mean reproduction, right? Not to mention that you can't find a suitable woman with your body size. If you go out, you will be an evil spirit. How can you inherit?

By the way, there are giants in the Harry Potter world, but they seem to be of different species. I wonder if there is reproductive isolation.

He clapped his hands and said, "Alright everyone, I know it's really hard to give up life and faith, so don't rush to make a decision. After all, if we want to leave here, we still have to reach the end of this book first."

Mobet immediately asked, "How did it end? We have all tried over the years, but every once in a while, we would forget everything and become confused, living or sleeping in different places until the next new member arrived."

"It's simple. Just kill the 'King of the North' Jurisian."

Groselle heard the sound and immediately said, "But, in all these years, we have never found it! Every time we heard it attacking some villages and towns, it had already flown away when we rushed over."

Edward frowned and said, "You mean, you haven't even seen it yet?"

"No,"

The one who spoke was Longzel. "To be precise, Groselle had seen it once before. He saw it destroy a town with his own eyes, causing huge casualties. That's why he decided to get rid of the dragon."

So, the setting of this book is like the plot of a game. Unless certain conditions are met, the plot cannot be triggered, right?

In this case, perhaps the "King of the North" came out through "refresh". Before the refresh conditions were met, it was very likely that it did not exist in this world at all.

This is a difficult situation.

So do we really have to find someone to stuff two people in suitcases to make up the number? But what if the people who are stuffed in through "abnormal" means don't count?

roar--

At this moment, the whole cave shook suddenly, and a crazy and violent aura quickly descended!

Groselle stood up suddenly, "It's Jurisan, it's coming!"

Edward was immediately surprised: Was his previous guess wrong? Was it simply bad luck that they didn't meet the King of the North before?

However, in the original book, the dragon did come to the door on its own initiative because all the people in the story gathered together. Why is it happening now?

Everyone walked quickly through the cave and came to the entrance, only to see a huge figure falling from the sky and landing on a huge rock covered with a thick layer of ice nearby. The wings covered with membrane did not fold up, but continued to spread out, almost blocking out the surrounding light.

Dreamy armor scales that looked like ice crystals, extremely violent dark blue dragon eyes. Almost at the same time, the giant frost dragon opened its mouth and spit out a twisted, quiet and ostentatious ice-blue flame towards the cave. Wherever it passed, the void became transparent and everything condensed!

A moment later, the ice-blue flame set off a wave of dreamy light, rushing madly into the dark cave, freezing everything along the way.

Everyone's faces suddenly changed and they retreated one after another. Only Edward remained standing, looking up at the approaching ice-blue flame.

Groselle hesitated for a moment, then quickly stretched out his huge hand and grabbed him, "Get out of the way!"

Chapter 547 The plot collapsed

But his hand was suddenly stopped by an invisible hand and he couldn't get any closer.

Looking in front of Edward again, there was a huge illusory door. The surging ice-blue waves were easily swallowed up by the door without causing any impact on the cave.

Edward raised his hand and grabbed the dragon again, stealing its current thoughts. Then he used a Transfiguration spell to transform it into a huge ice sculpture. He then turned around and looked at everyone and said, "If I kill it now, this story will come to an end. Do you need more time to think about it?"

Everyone was stunned. They didn't expect that this giant frost dragon that was so oppressive to them could be subdued like a child in the hands of Mr. Sparrow - He really was a demigod, and a very powerful demigod.

The good news is that they don't have to fight this frost dragon.

The bad news is that if Sparrow really has bad intentions, they might be like this dragon, without much ability to resist.

Therefore, all I can do now is pray that what he just said is true.

So everyone's eyes were cast on Siatas and Snowman. Mobet couldn't help but poked Siatas with his hand and said pitifully: "Siatas..."

She was indeed an elf with a bad temper and a proud personality, and was willing to believe in any false god other than the Elf King. But at this moment she was still shaken, not only because Edward said that the Queen of Scourge might be waiting for the help of the elves, but also because of Mobet's eyes.

"I... would like to, too."

She lowered her head slightly. "Her Majesty the Queen is waiting for me. I hope to have the opportunity to help Her."

Snowman then drew a cross-like symbol on his chest, half-closed his eyes and said, "I do, too."

"OK."

Edward smiled and nodded, "Then silently recite the honorific name I gave you."

Without further hesitation, several people recited Edward's three-part formula in a loud, quiet or silent manner:

"The eternal ruler of the dimension,

"The Deconstructor of the Endless Story,

"Transcendence of the past and the future."

Almost at the same time, Edward heard prayers one after another.

Done!

He grinned, turned his head and looked at the giant dragon that had been turned into an ice sculpture. The violent power of thunder surged around him, forming a series of moving lightning snakes.

"boom!"

A silver-white lightning bolt as thick as a bucket struck down from the sky, hitting the dragon. With a creaking sound, the huge ice sculpture instantly shattered, and then was vaporized into boiling steam by the high temperature.

Mobet murmured, "Shatas, this lightning strike... is much more terrifying than the ones you usually use."

There was a hint of surprise in Siatas' eyes: "It feels like Her Majesty the Queen is using it herself."

"He is obviously a Beyonder from the Gate Path. Maybe this ability was recorded from your Queen of Calamity. If so... He might really have a good relationship with your Queen."

This was definitely good news for Siatas, so her expression softened immediately.

A few minutes later, the steam gradually dissipated, leaving only a charred corpse where the Frost Dragon was. It collapsed to the ground like a black hill, with its head drooping on the ground, completely lifeless.

But Edward sensed something was wrong: first, it was impossible for the dragon that had turned into an ice sculpture to remain intact after being struck by the thunder; second, according to the original book, after the death of the King of the North, his body would turn into a pair of double doors leading to the outside.

But so much time has passed, and the dragon corpse is still lying there, and nothing has happened.

This situation naturally made Edward think, is it really the same as his previous guess, that a bug occurred due to the lack of two people, causing the plot to collapse?

As soon as this thought appeared, the charred dragon corpse suddenly trembled slightly, and then the outermost layer of charred skin quickly fell off, revealing the dreamy armor scales inside that looked like condensed ice crystals.

Not dead?

Could it be that because of the joining of a demigod like me, the final boss has also been strengthened in this version?

Isn't this too shameless?

Soon, all the charred skin on the dragon fell off, and it returned to its original appearance, as if Edward's previous attack had no effect on it.

Edward immediately became alert.

boom!

The Frost Dragon flapped its wings violently, and its huge body soared into the sky. While spitting out ice-blue flames once again, it turned its head and flew towards the north without hesitation.

"Don't even think about escaping!"

The female elf Siatas trotted twice, gathering strength and pulling the bowstring to its full extent. Silver-white lightning flashed violently, while the ascetic monk Snowman beside her said solemnly: "God said, it works."

call out.

The arrow, mixed with silver and gold light, instantly hit the dragon, tearing its icy armor apart, spilling blood all over the ground, causing it to let out a low roar.

But the blow did not stop it from escaping.

Edward was no longer arrogant. He unleashed degeneration, thunder, exile, and all kinds of spells in an instant. Even if the frost dragon was a demigod, it would die if it didn't dodge!

But what was unexpected was that the huge body suddenly turned into a translucent phantom, allowing all attacks to penetrate through its body, and flew straight into the boundless darkness without any damage.

"Damn it!! What kind of ability is that?!"

Siatas angrily smashed her bow against the cave wall, "What's going on?"

Everyone looked at Edward at the same time. He thought for a moment and said, "To be honest, I'm not sure... Maybe something has appeared in this world..."

He wanted to say bug, but changed it to, "error."

"You guys stay here and wait. I'll chase after them and take a look."

Edward took a step forward, transformed into a spirit state, and then quickly flashed towards the north of the frost dragon, using the blood it had just shed as a guide to use the divination method to determine the direction - it was not that he did not want to teleport, but the spirit world did not seem to exist in the world of this book.

In this way, he chased all the way, stopping and starting.

Just like that, from darkness to day, as the dark night sky began to show a faint light, the goose feather-like snow gradually became smaller.

Through the dim light of dawn, Edward saw a mountain in the distance whose top he could not see. What was not normal was that most of the mountain was emerald green.

As he continued to approach, a huge primeval forest appeared in front of him, and the mountain that was originally right in front of him suddenly disappeared, as if it had never existed.

All this obviously indicated that something was not normal, so Edward stopped immediately, threw out a gold coin to divine that there was no danger around, and then recited a three-part prayer to himself.

Then he walked four steps backwards, entered Sefirah Castle in a hazy white mist, and sat on his bronze chair.

When he raised his head, he looked at the six crimson stars that lit up in the depths of the gray fog. Five of them belonged to Groselle and his group, and the other one belonged to him.

Edward stretched out his hand, spreading his spiritual energy and infusing them one by one, successfully establishing connections with the five people.

At this moment, he suddenly had an idea:

Huh?

Since they are all going to give up their bodies and become evil spirits, can I skip the plot and directly pull the spirits of Groselle and the other five to the Sefirah Castle, and then release them through the illusory gate of sacrifice and gift?

This way, no matter what problems the "resurrected" frost dragon has, I won't have to put myself in danger anymore.

Edward acted as he thought. An idea suddenly occurred to him. He injected spirituality into the five stars and was ready to pull them all up.

But this time, it failed.

The spirits of the five people were unable to leave their bodies and enter Sefirah Castle. It was as if they were locked in their bodies... No, it should be said that they were locked in the book "Groselle's Travels".

Tsk, I knew it wouldn't be that simple.

The original book also seems to have mentioned that the longer you stay in the world of the book, the more you will forget your original intentions, and gradually become confused and become like the characters in the book. Only when new characters appear will you regain consciousness for a short time.

The earliest dragon of these five people has been in "Groselle's Travels" for more than 160 years and has long become a part of the book. This book was made by the Dragon King and seems to be mixed with the power of the Chaos Sea.

As both are source substances, there should be no difference between Source Castle and Chaos Sea. However, these five people have stayed here for too long and have been branded with certain marks, so they cannot be pulled up directly, right?

Alas, it seems that there is no way to fix the bug.

Edward reconnected to his own star and completed the ritual of praying to himself and responding to himself before leaving Sefirah Castle and returning to the forest.

He continued forward, sometimes going straight, sometimes turning. After an unknown amount of time, he came to a steep, protruding cliff, and the view in front of him suddenly opened up:

A "deep-sea pit" appeared in front of them, with a city the size of an island in the center.

The foundation of the city is grayish white, with majestic stone pillars tens or hundreds of meters high standing on it. Some of them stand alone, while others jointly support towering and ancient palaces. The whole structure is both strange and magnificent.

Edward paused and murmured involuntarily: "The City of Miracles, Levished..."

"How did I end up here?"

In the original novel, Klein and the other two entered the collective subconscious ocean of Groselle, Siatas, and others through Audrey's ability to travel through dreams using the audience channel, and "pieced together" a path to reach this legendary city.

But, I was tracking the Frost Dragon using the Divining Staff Technique, so why did I end up here?

At this moment, he suddenly thought of the "void" of the Frost Dragon when it was avoiding all attacks. At that time, he thought it was some kind of bug, a mandatory "damage immunity". Now it seems that it is the audience's ability of [Dream Travel].

But why did it not only travel into the collective subconscious ocean in the dream by itself, but also follow me in unknowingly?

Isn't this too outrageous?

Chapter 548 Cooperate with Amon?

Edward's heart suddenly became alert, thinking that something must be wrong!

If it was just "Groselle's Travels", with his current strength, he wouldn't have to worry too much, but the miracle city in front of him was different!

Especially...

He looked straight at the huge palace with a gray appearance and more than two hundred meters high not far from the "deep sea pit". If he remembered correctly, it should be the residence of the "Dragon of Imagination" Angerwede, the so-called "Hall of Honesty".

Edward threw his cane again, and the direction it pointed was clearly the "Hall of Honesty", but this time he did not dare to move forward rashly.

Since the Frost Dragon was able to escape all the way to this miracle city, it obviously thought that coming here would be beneficial to it. God knows what kind of "big surprise" is hidden in this floating miracle city - the polluted personality of the Dragon King sealed in the Hall of Honesty alone is enough to give me a hard time.

But if we don't catch up and kill it, won't the progress of the story of this book be stuck? Then everyone can't get out, and the promotion ceremony will also be stuck.

After hesitating for a moment, Edward flew out on tiptoe, flying along the outermost edge of this "deep sea pit", observing this miracle city from all angles while fortune-telling.

At this moment, a loud explosion was heard, and the huge pillars of the suspended city below collapsed one by one, echoing in this strange space.

He immediately looked over there.

A man in a magic robe and a monocle flew out from the collapsed pillar. His expression showed a rare annoyance. Behind him was an old man with three heads and four pairs of black wings.

It's Amon and Stif!

Edward's pupils shrank. Why were they here? !

Then he understood that the reason why the frost dragon appeared in the original book and attacked the adventure team was because of the entry of Klein and his companions, which just made up the number of people required for the last few pages of "Groselle's Travels".

But when Edward entered this time, there were clearly two people missing, but the icy dragon still appeared - I was a little confused before, I didn't expect that Amon and Stiver would also come in?

At this time, Stifel was obviously chasing Amon. The scarlet soul-flesh blade kept swinging out sword energy full of corrupted power. The three heads switched among various abilities and attacked Amon.

As Amon was running away, he would occasionally turn around and steal Stiver's thoughts and abilities, but the effect was obviously not good and he looked quite embarrassed.

Don't think that in the original novel, Amon at Sequence 4 was almost killed by the siege of Pallez (Sequence 1), Klein (Sequence 4), and the foreign aid of Snake.

But Pales and Little Snake were so weak at the time that they were not sure whether they could exert much of their strength.

Stive is a genuine Sequence 2!

"Hello!"

Amon's eyes lit up when he saw Edward, and he shouted to Stiver, "See? He is your real target. Stop chasing me."

Upon hearing this, Steve glanced at Edward, and a surging murderous intent suddenly flashed in his crazy eyes. However, the appearance of two targets at the same time made him hesitate, and he didn't know who to chase.

However, Amon made the decision for Him. He suddenly stretched out his hand, stole the position and replaced Edward, allowing Edward to appear in a closer position.

Steve didn't hesitate any more and rushed towards Edward who suddenly approached.

Alpaca's Amon!

Edward flashed repeatedly, forming a continuous afterimage, quickly moving away, turning around and escaping the way he came.

"Don't bother. Once you're in, you can't get out."

Amon watched him being hunted by Stifer at ease, with a faint smile on his face, "Otherwise, I wouldn't have been hunted by Him here for so long."

Sure enough, when Edward flew back to the cliff, he found that the forest and the road he came from had disappeared, leaving only a void of darkness. Although he could not see anything in the depths of the darkness, his spirituality told him that there was a terrible danger hidden inside!

boom!

Without giving him time to look or think, Stifel had already chased after him, swinging the Soul and Flesh Blade.

His condition at this moment was obviously very abnormal. As a shepherd, he possessed extraordinary abilities in many ways, but he was like a berserker, only knowing how to simply and roughly chop people with his "big knife".

However, just by looking at the surging breath coming towards him, Edward could easily judge that although Stiver had fewer means in this state, his speed, strength, destructive power, etc. were much stronger than before. Once hit by his soul and flesh blade, the demigod would lose half his life.

Edward dodged quickly, and the knife full of the aura of corruption almost grazed him. He looked at Amon with a smile and reached out to grab him: "Enlarge, steal!"

The next second, the positions of the two changed.
