Shadow trail of the beautiful world

Chapter 409 43. Mysterious Guest. Ambitious Revenge -- Adding Updates for Cool Bubbles and Brothers [1415]

"I have to confirm one thing first."

Merlin said to Liana in front of him:

"Since you dare to appear here at midnight, it means that Bellacus is not omniscient about what happened on this land, right?"

"really."

Liana nodded, she said frankly:

"Although the area of ​​​​hell's border is not as large as a complete world, it is definitely not as small as you imagine. Bellacos was exiled here, and it was accepted by this land only because it stayed here long enough. , it never wanted to stay here forever."

The girl wrapped in a black cloak said in a sarcastic voice:

"It has always dreamed of gaining new power, and then returning to hell in a glorious manner, and trampled under the feet of the hell lords who expelled it."

"It has never liked this land, it just borrows its power, so as long as another person related to the border of hell takes control of the border of hell from it, this land will start resist..."

"You mean you?"

Merlin stroked Gu Gu's fur in his arms, and he said calmly:

"Are you going to take that demon's territory from it? Are you sure?"

"Who is 100% sure about this kind of thing?"

Liana said impatiently:

"To use the power of Limbo to compete with Bellacus, I still have a lot of things to do, and you can't help, so let's discuss the part that you can help."

This irascible hair girl pointed to her chest, and she said:

"I saw my soul. As you said, the filled chaos made my soul only one step away from being out of balance. Before solving this difficult matter, it is difficult for me to calm down and cooperate with Bellacus That old bastard was acting."

She looked at Merlin, with undisguised worry and longing in her eyes, and she said:

"When you left before, you told me that as long as I made up my mind, you would help me, so I'm curious, how can you help me?"

"It's not urgent, I still have some things to understand."

Merlin stroked the emerald ring on his left index finger, and said:

"To find the right answer, you have to ask the right question first. Given the current situation, what I want to know is, do you know now, what method Belacus is using to connect you with the will of the ancient evil god? Together?"

"It's a ritual, if I'm not mistaken."

Liana frowned and said:

"More than ten years ago, I was brought here by Bellacos. At that time, I was only a 6-year-old child who had just awakened my abilities, but my body was weak and I couldn't even adapt to the environment of the border of hell. The old bastard made it for me. A manor that is very similar to the environment of the earth, taught me like a mentor, taught me to learn black magic."

"It tells me that my potential is powerful, but I must go through rigorous training to fully develop this potential. In the first 5 years of my stay in Limbo, I was constantly learning all kinds of magical knowledge until I adapted to the environment here , the demon prepared a ritual."

"It told me that it was a ritual to establish contact with a great being and obtain knowledge from it. I was still young at the time, and such a ritual was indeed recorded in the magic book, so I didn't doubt it."

Liana sneered:

"Now that I think about it, that should be the beginning of it polluting my soul."

"Is that the ritual that split your soul?"

Merlin asked:

"How did you feel? Describe the ceremony to me in detail."

"It's hard, it hurts."

Liana touched her head, she said:

"I felt like I was being torn apart from my body. A lot of knowledge, those taboo knowledge, poured into my mind, like water filling a bucket, and even overflowing."

"As for the ceremony, it's a very simple ceremony."

Liana stretched out her hand, and a group of magic power quickly gathered into a weird pattern in her hand, which looked like an eye, an eye hidden in the darkness while waving like tentacles.

"It draws this pattern with blood, then lights candles around it, and recites it in a tongue-twisting language that I still can't understand. It allows me to stay in the circle of the pattern and empty my mind."

"I did so at the time, and after waiting for a few minutes, I felt an invisible door open in front of my eyes... Opposite the door was a huge, mountain-like consciousness. It is hard for me to describe the feeling of seeing it. Feel."

Liana frowned, and described to Merlin:

"It's like you are looking at the sea in front of you. Under the dark stars, a gigantic monster waving its tentacles suddenly emerges in the quiet sea. You stare at it, and it also stares at you. It may not bring Malicious, but you will instinctively feel fear, especially at the moment when the two parties' consciousnesses contact, your soul seems to be standing under a lonely and indifferent mountain."

"You are so small, it is so huge...it will give you an involuntary urge to worship it."

"But that's just an illusion."

Liana stretched out her hand and plucked the bangs in front of her forehead, she said:

"It doesn't care about you at all. No matter what you do, no matter what you pray for, it will just look at you so indifferently until you really arouse its interest."

Sister Mao sighed, and she said:

"This is the only experience I had with it. It was a ridiculous scene, but now that I think about it, there may be some things that I have overlooked."

"Your tone is also very abnormal."

Merlin reminded:

"I think a normal person probably wouldn't be so eager for the attention of an unknown spirit body. You have been affected by it, Liana, your will has already begun to succumb to that ancient evil god, and the most terrible thing is that your own consciousness is not By this point, you feel normal."

He frowned and said:

"It looks like the problem is bigger than we thought. But it's not without good news."

Merlin says:

"Belakos needs you to become the container of the ancient gods, but the coming of the evil gods requires the container itself to have no resistance to succeed. It uses deception to stabilize you and cuts your soul. Bit by bit It’s probably because of this reason that they pollute you a little bit.”

"This means that as long as you remain vigilant without arousing Bellacus' suspicion, the power of the ancient evil gods will slow down in your soul."

"You still have time."

"this."

Merlin took off the emerald ring from his finger, and he threw it to Liana, saying:

"Hold it, there is a memory sealed inside it, it should help you."

"How to say?"

Liana took the ring, and she asked:

"What's the reason?"

"I asked a professional and the advice she gave was that if your soul is polluted, you might as well 'cut' it. "

Merlin says:

"Since the nature of your existence has begun to favor demonic creatures, and your soul has already been split by that ritual, so this method that sounds unreliable should be feasible for you."

"You mean, let me cut off my two souls that have been polluted?"

Liana looked at the ring in her hand, and she asked with some headaches:

"Isn't there a more gentle way?"

"Even if the devil's soul is cut off, there will be various symptoms, not to mention that I am not a pure devil, the lack of soul will bring me a lot of trouble, and my will may become unstable because of it. The situation. And I have already made up my mind to kill Belakos, cutting the soul at this time will make me very weak."

"So you have to find the perfect moment."

Merlin says:

"Regarding this, I may be able to help. I may be able to lure Belacos away at the right time and create opportunities for you."

"But if you need my help, you will owe me one favor again, and with the method of soul cutting, you will owe me two favors. Liana, my favor is not cheap."

His tone became playful, and he said:

"How are you going to repay my favor?"

"Make a request!"

Liana put away the ring in her hand, looked at Merlin, and said a little frivolously:

"As long as I can do it, it's not impossible even if I'm serving the bed..."

"you?"

Merlin glanced at Liana, he shook his head:

"I'm not interested in a naive girl like you."

His face became more serious, and he said:

"I need some magical objects, some items with powerful power, whether it is dark magic power or holy power, if you can get enough strange objects to me, I may consider waiving some of your 'debt'."

"Of course, if it is the knowledge in hell, the black magic used by Bellacos can also be exchanged, but strange things are necessary."

"You are waiting here!"

Liana said something to Merlin, and then walked into the dark red light of the transmission. A few minutes later, she returned to Merlin with a black bag, and she threw the bag to Merlin.

The latter took it in his hand, and found that the bag contained more than a dozen items that exuded black magic, most of them were pendants, and there were a few armor-like items.Among these hellish wonders, there are also several tomes exuding dark magic power.

"Is this enough?"

Liana crossed her arms and said to Merlin:

"If it's not enough, you can wait for a while, and I'll find a way to get some more out of Bellacos' treasury."

"Well, these are enough to repay the debt of soul cutting."

Merlin held the bag in his hand, and he said to Liana:

"If you need help, that's not enough...not enough."

"You are too greedy!"

Liana snorted coldly:

"Although I don't know much about the wizards on Earth, these things are invaluable in any magical dimension."

What Liana said made Merlin laugh, and he said earnestly:

"Son...you want me to help you deal with a hell lord, and that is not something you can dismiss casually. If I want to help you, it means that I am helping at the risk of being killed .”

"Life is priceless, whether it's yours or mine."

Merlin lifted the pocket in his hand, and he said to Liana:

"Do you want to hire me to help you desperately because you use such a little thing? Do you think it's appropriate?"

Liana didn't refute anymore, she just stood there, looking at Merlin quietly, after a while, she said:

"Beracos is the lord of the border of hell. Although this ghost place is barren, it is a complete dimension after all. The demon has been here for many years, and there are many valuable collectibles in its treasury... If If you and your friends can help me to be free and help me control this land, then everything in the treasury will belong to you."

"It's almost there."

Merlin nodded reservedly, and said:

"Look for an opportunity first. If you make up your mind, then send a little devil to sneak into the world to find me. In addition, I am a little curious. What are you going to do after you expel or kill Belacus? And ... about Piot, your brother, what are you going to do with him?"

"This land longs for a master who will not dislike it."

Liana squatted down, stroking the barren ground, she said:

"I have lived here for more than ten years. Under the guidance of Bellacos, I have also established a connection with Limbo... I know the thirst of this land, so after killing the bastard old devil, I will take over Its 'legacy'."

"I will be the queen of Limbo!"

There was a gleam of light on the face of the still young Maomei, she said:

"I have learned a lot of things here. The weak cannot survive in hell. Now that I have become a demon, I have to seize every opportunity to make myself stronger. Becoming a queen is just the first step."

"As for Piotr..."

Liana sighed and said:

"I hurt him, I hurt him even though I could tell myself it was all Bellacos' fault. I don't want to think about these things right now, it distracts me, so, what do I do with my brother Let’s leave it to me to talk about it after I’m crowned on this land.”

"Ah."

Merlin hugged the cat, he took a step back, leaned slightly towards Liana, and said:

"Then, I will wait for your news, the future...Her Majesty of Limbo."
