Have I said something similar?
"That... I also think it's inappropriate. +b\q′z~w?w·._n\e·t?"
Edward felt that it was inappropriate, simply because he thought that the chances of success for a group of people like them to assassinate the "master" were too small.
"Look, Zhang San also objects!"
Li Li looked over with a gloomy look, "This matter has been decided from the beginning. If you are willing to help, stay. If not, I can only seal them temporarily and let you out after this matter is over."
Medici stood up and said coldly: "You can try it."
"OK."
Li Li nodded calmly: "The Lord said, meet your request."
As soon as he finished speaking, Medici's expression suddenly changed. He seemed to be under great pressure and had to sit back. Then his feet began to petrify rapidly. He wanted to struggle, but it seemed that he had no strength at all. He could only roar angrily: "Li Li, you traitors!!"
After more than ten seconds, it turned into a whole stone sculpture.
"Zhang San, what do you say?"
"…"
Edward immediately looked at his nose and heart, "Everything is subject to your arrangements."
"Although this assassination was tacitly approved by the Lord, we must do our best to make it unexpected and prevent the original awakened consciousness from counterattacking before death."
Li Li looked at Amanesis: "So, Amanesis will keep it secret for you throughout the whole process."
The blonde girl, Amanisis, nodded: "Understood."
"Leodro, Osekus, you are responsible for the first wave of assassinations, Herabergen..."
She methodically assigned corresponding duties to each person, and finally looked at Edward: "Zhang San.?1\3?x!s!.~n¨e`t·"
"exist."
"You are responsible for waking up the Lord."
"OK."
Edward agreed, but after waiting for a while he didn't hear any further arrangements, so he asked in confusion, "And then?"
"No more, your mission is to wake up the Lord."
"…"
Uh, that's good too.
At least there is no need to fight to the death like others do.
"Okay, go ahead."
ah?
Edward was confused again, and looked up at everyone, "Now?"
Isn't this too sudden?
It feels like I dozed off and the grogginess hasn't even worn off yet, but I'm going to assassinate the most powerful god in the world. What's the difference between this and asking a small monster to capture Tang Monk?
Hmm? Who is Tang Monk?
At this time, Amanesis blinked and said, "Don't worry, after you wake up the Lord, I will help you hide it as soon as possible, and leave the rest to us."
However, no matter what your level is or what your master's level is, are your secrets really useful?
But since he had been forced to do this, he had no other choice.
"...Okay, I'll go then."
Edward stepped out of the shuttle space and came to a huge and magnificent bronze door. This was the former court of the giant king. After the Lord defeated the giant king, he made this place his own kingdom of God.
"My lord."
He just raised his hand to knock on the door, but the huge bronze door opened silently, and a ray of golden light poured out from the house, bathing Edward in the sunshine.
He slowly walked into the huge palace, as if he had walked into a golden ocean. The scenes on both sides changed rapidly, as if he was in a time tunnel that was moving forward at a high speed. When he came to his senses, he was already standing in a room made of gold. On the ridiculously large bed that once belonged to the Giant King, a black figure was curled up, snoring softly.
Taking a few more steps closer, Edward finally saw the owner's appearance clearly: it was a black cat.
"???"
The Lord who created everything, the omniscient and omnipotent God - God, is a cat.
Very good, as sloppy as my name "Zhang San"!
Of course Edward only dared to complain in his heart. After all, in his memory, this black cat led humans to defeat almost all the ancient gods, and countless gods had been torn to pieces by its sharp claws and fangs.
His roar can scare thousands of dragons to death, and his stomping of feet can frighten the ancient gods. He is the most powerful and greatest god!
"My Lord, are you awake?"
"What is it?"
The black cat didn't open its eyes, but just made some mumbling sounds like it was talking in its sleep.
"Li Li asked me to wake you up."
"How long have I been asleep?"
"More than a hundred years."
"How's the world out there?"
"As you wished, humans have defeated the barbarians and are gradually developing their own civilization, but they pray all the time, hoping to be bathed in your glory again."
He suddenly opened his eyes, revealing pupils that were like golden flames, and then he lazily sat up and said calmly, "No, humans don't need gods. I have completed my duties, and it is time for me to leave the stage and hand over the world to them."
"Well, are you going to continue sleeping?"
"Do you want me to fall asleep, Zhang San?"
"…"
Looking at his clear eyes, Edward was shocked and said, "I think... you have been working too hard for too long. You should really rest more..."
"Thanks."
He stood up and stood on Edward's shoulder with a light jump: "Do what you should do, don't think too much."
"Let's go, it's time to go meet them."
Edward nodded, turned around and walked back along the way he came, passed through the corridor that was like a time tunnel, and came to the bronze door again.
Just one step forward and you will be out of the Giant King's Court.
"Don't hesitate, just keep going."
"Does it have to be this way?"
"Um."
"Will it work?"
"I hope so."
Finally, Edward stepped out of the door, and raging flames and forest-like thunder crashed down. At the same time, Edward felt as if something very important was stripped out of his mind, bringing a burst of tearing pain.
Then he was suddenly pushed away by a force, and a series of roars came from behind him.
Pop.
Edward fell to the ground. He quickly stood up and looked back, just in time to see the moment when the light of various abilities dissipated, and the Kingdom of Heaven's deputy Li Li pierced the black cat's body with a black weapon.
Golden blood dripped from the wound. The whole world became silent for a moment, and the only sound was the dripping sound of blood falling to the ground.
Tick, tick, tick.
The ticking sound became more and more urgent, and gradually turned into the crackling sound of raindrops.
After a brief trance,
Edward found himself standing on an unfamiliar, dark street. It was raining heavily and icy rain. The surroundings were cold and wet, and there was a strong sense of despair in the air.
who I am?
Where am I?
What am I doing?
He seemed to have lost all his memories and turned into a blank shell.
He looked around blankly, thought for a while, chose a place with light in the distance and walked over.
The rain is getting heavier.
He felt colder and colder, and could not help but hug his arms tightly and shiver. But no matter how far he walked, the light was still in the distance, as if he would never reach the end.
never mind.
Then don't leave.
He picked a tree with relatively lush leaves, curled up and sat at the roots of the tree, then looked up at the dark sky through the rain curtain with lifeless eyes.
He wanted to think about the current situation, but his mind was blank.
"Meow~"
A faint cat's cry suddenly came from the side.
He was a little surprised and glanced over.
"Meow~ meow~ meow~"
The voice became more and more urgent, but also weaker and weaker. After hesitating for a few seconds, he stood up and walked over, pushing aside a pile of dead branches and leaves, and found a wet black kitten in it.
It was probably only two months old, skinny and small, and very weak. It looked like it would be frozen to death soon.
"Well, although my current situation is not much worse than yours, I will still try my best to help you when I see you."
He squatted down and reached out to pick up the kitten.
Click!
Perhaps it was out of instinct to be alert to danger, the kitten opened its mouth and bit his finger, causing a slight sting. He didn't pay much attention to it, and with his other hand, he grabbed the cat's neck and forced it to open its mouth. Then, after hesitating for a few seconds, he stuffed it into his arms, which had not yet been wet by the rain.
Hiss, it's so cold.
He shuddered and shook his bitten finger to let the rain wash away the blood. /First, read ~ book? Wang! ~ Chase? 蕞\ 譆 / 璋 + 踕`
"Well, since I chose to save you, I will try to keep moving forward."
Shaking his head helplessly, he once again set foot on the road that seemed to have no end.
However, this time, the light in the distance was getting closer as he moved forward. After more than ten minutes, he had arrived in front of an ancient stone house.
A faint smoke was wafting out of the chimney of the stone house, and the dim light shone through the window, casting a thin halo of light on the door, which looked somewhat warm.
Edward quickly quickened his pace and smelled a faint aroma of rice as he reached the door.
Boom boom boom.
He knocked on the wooden door: "Excuse me, is anyone home?"
"who?"
"I'm just passing by and want to find a place to take shelter from the rain. Is that convenient?"
After a short wait, the wooden door creaked open, and a twenty-year-old girl with long black hair stood in the room. She looked him up and down for a while, then took two steps back and said, "Come in."
"Meow~"
At this time, the kitten curled up in her arms made a faint cry again. The girl frowned and said, "Cat? Where is it?"
He immediately took the little guy out and said, "I just picked it up on the road. If I don't take care of it, it will freeze to death."
He looked towards the burning fireplace and said, "I can..."
"Um."
He hurried over to the fireplace and brought the kitten close enough to the flames to keep it warm.
"Give."
The girl handed over a dry towel.
"Thanks."
He dried the kitten a little with a towel and wrapped it up again.
Girl: "The towel is for you."
"Uh, sorry, I thought..."
"Forget it.! Xin+Nan? This is the first time, I'm drunk. Xin-Zhang'踕~Geng-Xin`Kuai¢"
The girl sat down on the sofa by the fireplace. "You are not from our town, are you? I have never seen you before. Where are you from?"
"I... am a traveler, just passing through this town."
"Where are you going?"
"I haven't thought about this yet."
The girl nodded slightly and didn't ask any more questions.
"Meow, meow~"
The little black cat, which had regained some spirit, made a series of calls. The girl frowned and said, "It's hungry."
"Ah? Then, what should we do?"
The girl stared at him for a few seconds, then stood up and took a packet of milk powder from the table. She poured it into a bowl, mixed it with warm water, and handed it to him: "See if it drinks it."
"Thank you, thank you, thank you so much."
Edward placed the bowl in front of the kitten, untied the towel on it, dipped his finger in some milk and smeared it on its mouth. The little guy immediately licked his lips, crawled to the bowl and started drinking.
Seeing the little guy almost burying his head in the bowl as if he was afraid someone would snatch it away, Edward hesitated for a moment and asked, "Hello, as I just said, I am a traveler... I have no purpose, I go wherever I go, and I can't even take good care of myself."
"So, can I leave this cat to you to take care of?"
Chapter 628 The Beginning in the Mirror
"Meow?"
The kitten suddenly turned around and looked at Edward, with some confusion in his blue eyes.
The girl said calmly, "I don't care, but after all, you saved it. Is it appropriate to just throw it to someone else?"
"I'm not throwing her away, I'm just... finding her a safer and more suitable place. It's better than following me, right?"
"But it seems reluctant to leave you."
Edward laughed: "How is that possible? It hasn't been long since I picked it up, and it just bit me..."
Before he finished speaking, he felt his trouser legs fall down, and when he looked down, he saw the little guy standing up, resting his two front feet on his calves, and kicking his hind legs to climb up.
The girl added: "It likes you very much, take it with you and leave."
He picked up the little black cat and placed it on his lap, stroking its head and making it purr. "Forget it, it's better for it to stay here."
If I were really just a traveler, there would be no problem in taking it with me on the road, but I have forgotten everything and don't know anything. I don't even know what to do next. It would be irresponsible to take it with me.
Although, he also felt that he had an inexplicable sense of intimacy with this little guy.
I don't know how long it took,
A ray of golden sunlight came in from outside and reflected on Edward's face. He turned his head and found that the rain outside had stopped at some point. The sun broke through the dark clouds and dispelled the darkness.
"The rain has stopped."
He murmured, picked up the kitten and handed it to the girl: "I'm going to continue on my journey. I'll leave this little guy to you."
"Don't you want to think about it again?"
"No."
He stood up, smiled, and turned to the door, "Thank you for taking me in."
"Meow~"
The little black cat struggled in the girl's hands and meowed at Edward.
He couldn't help but smile: "Oh, I'm so popular with small animals. They have developed feelings for me after just knowing me for a while."
Maybe when I regain my memory, I will come back to pick you up, little one.
Pushing the door open, he waved and walked out of the stone house.
The girl just sat there quietly, stroking the black cat's fur with her fingers, and said calmly: "See, the last bit of meaning in your existence is gone. Is there any need to continue to persist?"
"I was trying to persuade him to take you away the whole time, but he resolutely abandoned you."
She said calmly: "So, Lilith... you are fake, and only Li Li is real. Stop resisting in vain. Become one with me, and then we will be complete."
As she spoke gently and calmly, the black kitten's eyes became dimmer and dimmer along with its body. Its figure gradually became transparent, as if it would disappear at any time.
When he walked out of the stone house, Edward looked up at the bright sunshine. The depression brought by the dark clouds and cold rain disappeared, and his steps became lighter. He couldn't help but fantasize in his heart:
It would be interesting to take the little guy with me on the road. It is much better to have a cat as a companion than to be alone.
Just like many travel bloggers bring a dog or a cat... uh, what does travel blogger mean?
So if that little guy was given to me to raise, what name would I give it?
Well, seeing that it has black hair all over its body, why not just call it...
Wang Gangdan!
It's decided to be you, Wang Gangdan!
Phew, he couldn't help laughing: Before I lost my memory, I must have been a person with a very good sense of humor.
However, Wang Gangdan definitely can't do that, because he just took a glimpse of the little guy and it was a little female cat. Well, it was pitch black and small, so it should be a good name to call it Little Coal Ball, right?
Edward looked back at the stone house that was gradually disappearing into the distance and murmured, "I wonder what name that kind girl will give it?"
Little bean? Little sesame? Tom? Jerry?
Just as I was daydreaming, a childish and serious voice suddenly sounded in my mind: "Edward, from now on you must call me Miss Lilith~ Because I see other people address girls like this, it shows respect!"
clatter.
He stopped.
"Edward? Lilith?"
What was that sound you just heard?
Who are these two names?
Why is it so familiar and intimate?
He closed his eyes and tried to recall more information from this passage. With waves of stabbing pain in his mind, broken images flashed and disappeared, and the kind voice kept ringing in his ears:
"Edward, you...are back...I have been...waiting for you...obediently~"
"Edward, Miss Lilith is the smartest cat in the world!"
"That's how cats are."
"Did you really give me this little red flower? Hehehe, Miss Lilith is really the best!"
"Edward, thank you. If it weren't for you, Miss Lilith would have been like Isabella and the others, wandering around without enough food or clothes."
"With Edward here, Miss Lilith is the smartest cat~"
"…Edward, I'll wait for you in the future."
…
The stinging sensation became more and more intense, and he couldn't help but let out a low groan, but...but why can't I remember anything except these fragments, except these few words?
No, whether I remember other things or not, I am sure of one thing:
That black cat... is very important to me. I am here just to find her - but I clearly found her just now, why did I just throw her to someone else?
no,
I want to go back.
He turned around and was about to return to the stone house, but the moment he turned around, he felt a sharp pain that almost made him unable to bear it.
