Chapter 1078: The Lord Without Flame
Under the dark sky, fire patterns floated, as if there was magma about to explode behind it, with a pressing force.
Angel stood on the roof, looking at the fire patterns floating in the night, feeling uncertain.
A lot of things happened in a short period of time, which made Angel a little confused.
Looking at the sky, it seemed that it was a sign that Ye was about to take that step, but at this moment, Rasudelan was under martial law, and the descendant of the demon god, Orusia, appeared here again.
It seems that everything has come together, and this Castlevania suspended in the void is both a stage and a battlefield, full of fog that makes it difficult to see clearly.
While Angel was thinking, several sounds came from the distance.
It was the soft rustling sound of fallen leaves and dead branches, which was particularly harsh in the quiet night.
Angel looked towards the source of the sound and saw Prapa and Canaan walking over the winding forest path.
Prapa looked a little embarrassed, his head drooped, and his face looked frustrated.
After Prapa saw Angel, his expression was filled with frustration: "Shopkeeper, I went to inquire about the things you asked me to ask, but when they heard that they were looking for a way to dispel the curse of bad luck, they all avoided it. There was also a demon who thought I was cursed with bad luck and almost killed me, but I managed to escape..."
The curse of doom can be said to be a source of fear in the abyss. It is normal that Prapa said this in the past and caused such a big backlash.
It was also thanks to Prapa's strength that he had been promoted, otherwise it would have been almost impossible for him to escape from the demon's attack.
"It was my lack of consideration." Angel apologized, and at the same time took out a small bag of devil gold coins and handed it to Prapa: "You don't need to ask about this anymore, I have already found a solution."
Prapa opened his mouth, and originally wanted to ask who was hit by the bad luck curse, but looking at the heavy purse in his hand, he finally swallowed his words: "Then shopkeeper, I will go back to the hunting hall first. "
After Prapa left, Angel looked at Canaan. When Prapa spoke before, Canaan looked like he was hesitant to speak.
"What do you want to say?" Angel asked.
"Nothing!" Canaan replied reflexively, but after finishing speaking, he seemed to feel that his reaction was a bit big, and added a little to cover up: "Shopkeeper, I really don't have anything to say. I went to the core area to inquire about it. , nothing gained.”
After saying that, Canaan said "I'll clean it up", turned around and went into the yard.
Angel looked at Canaan's behavior suspiciously. He remembered that Canaan was going to inquire about the reason for this martial law. Is it like this?
In fact, after Orusia appeared, Angel already knew that this martial law must be related to Orusia. He was about to tell Canaan about this, but he didn't expect it to run away with a vague voice. He didn't know what happened?
Angel shook his head and was too lazy to care about Canaan's situation. He sat cross-legged on the roof again and continued to stare at the night sky. He always felt that this night sky would soon be completely burned by flames, just like Feng's "Night" painting.
However, not long after Angel sat down, Canaan walked out of the store coyly.
"Shopkeeper...Actually, I still got some news when I went to the core area this time, but these are all rumors and the credibility is very low." Canaan paused at this point and asked cautiously: "Shopkeeper, are you Do you still want to listen?"
"You tell me, I'll listen."
Canaan hesitated for a while, then slowly said: "I heard that the reason for this martial law seems to be the arrival of a big shot, and this big shot is most likely a descendant of the demon god."
After Canaan finished speaking, he let out a deep breath as if he was letting out all the burden that was weighing on his heart.
At this moment, Canaan had the illusion that he had betrayed the devil and became a "traitor".
The demons in the abyss basically know that the human wizards on the surface seem to covet the descendants of the demon god. Because of this, Canaan has been in a trance after learning that the descendants of the demon god came to Rasudran.
It knew that the shop owner was a human, and Canaan had never asked about the purpose of its visit to Rasudelan, but the coincidence of time made it mistakenly believe that Angel came for the descendants of the demon god.
Therefore, on the way back, Canaan had been thinking about whether to tell Angel about the descendants of the demon god visiting Rasudran.
It's not good if you don't tell. After all, when it left, it told where it was going.
But once it tells the shopkeeper, and the shopkeeper is the human wizard's spy, then it will probably become a typical human traitor.
Canaan was very confused.
It thought for a long time, thinking about the store owner's generosity to it in the past few days, and thinking about how it was bullied by the snake-tailed demon before, and finally turned over completely because of the experience trip. All of this was the kindness given to it by the store owner.
Therefore, after weighing the two aspects, Canaan finally spoke out.
However, Canaan’s self-described “impassioned” words only received a response of
"Oh, I see."
Canaan asked unwillingly: "Shopkeeper, aren't you surprised? Or you don't want to try it and inform your human companions?"
"Companion? Who are you referring to?" Angel looked at Canaan in confusion, "And why should I be surprised? The descendant of the devil you mentioned was still sitting in the shop not long ago."
"Huh?!" Canaan looked in disbelief.
Angel briefly described the situation of the descendant of the demon god coming to the store. In Canaan's dazed expression, Angel asked: "By the way, it said its name is Orusia. Do you know its background?"
Canaan nodded mechanically: "Orusia is the descendant of the Lord of Flameless."
Angel had heard this from Fafnir before. What he actually wanted to know more was Orusia's personal information and the information of this Lord of Flameless.
How many demon gods are there in the abyss? Angel is not sure, but he knows that all the demon gods in the abyss are above the legendary level.
According to the classification of demon gods, there are peerless great demon gods, great demon gods, and ordinary demon gods.
Among them, the peerless great demon gods are at the top. For example, the "Crown Clown" who pursues all balance and the "Lord of the Abyss" who pursues all sacrifices are peerless great demon gods, shining on thousands of planes and are the most powerful force in the abyss.
The Great Demon God is a slightly lower level existence, such as the "Ominous Evil Play" who likes to play with desires and human hearts, the "Cruel Scholar" who created the Abyss Inscription Literature, and the "Sunrise" who almost destroyed the wizard world ten thousand years ago, are all at this level.
As for ordinary demon gods, Angel didn't know much, but there is no doubt that each one is extremely powerful.
"The Lord of Flameless is a great demon god." Canaan still had a dull expression when he spoke. He still couldn't accept the fact that he had been out for only half an hour, and the descendants of the demon god came to the psychedelic hut.
Although Canaan was still in a trance, he didn't stop telling the story, and told the information he knew in great detail.
As Canaan told the story, Angel also had a general idea of Orusia and the Lord of Flameless.
The Lord of Flameless is a great demon god who controls flames. He pursues eternal burning. Burning to the end, without any fireworks, the space can collapse. Around the Lord of Flameless, you can't see any flames, nor can you sense any fire elements, but in fact you are already in the flames. Therefore, he is called the Lord of Flameless.
As for Orusia, Canaan has never come into contact with her, but according to rumors, the path taken by Orusia is not the trajectory of the Lord of Flameless, and it seems to want to open up its own path.
Another point worth mentioning is that it is said that Orusia has been looking for something, which seems to be related to a peerless demon god before the fall of the gods, but this can only be regarded as a rumor and has not been confirmed.
However, Canaan's words also made Angel have some reverie.
Orusia came to the surface of Rasuderlan, and there must be a purpose. It first released the young fire demon and the fire demon as a sentinel, probably to explore the way. Then, could the purpose it seeks be something that Orusia has been pursuing in the rumors?
And now, it happens that Ye is about to break through this step again. Is there some connection between the two?
Angel thought for a while, and there was no reasonable answer, so he simply put it aside for the time being. Anyway, the answers to these questions are at most to satisfy Angel's curiosity, and there is no other meaning.
After sending Canaan away, who was still in a daze, Angel continued to look at the night sky.
Unconsciously, the floating fire pattern in the night sky became brighter and denser, like a spider web, wrapping Rasuderan layer by layer. But at the same time, it became more and more ferocious, as if there was an endless flame about to fall from the sky.
"Is this fire really related to the Night Pavilion Master?" Angel muttered to himself in a low voice, looking at the floating fire pattern, and was lost in thought for a while.
The night entangled with fire patterns, the eternally lonely Demon City, and the boundless and lonely wind in the void.
The scene at this moment was completely fixed in his eyes.
This is a night without stars, but it is unusually beautiful.
As Angel looked at it, he suddenly felt his earlobe begin to heat up. He suddenly came back to his senses from the haze, but saw that the fire mark on his ear, for some reason, began to actively release fire elements.
These fire elements formed dense ghost flames, floating up and down around Angel.
"What's going on?" Angel found that he was completely unable to control the flames around him, but these flames had no intention of leaving or dissipating. They just jumped up and down around him, as if expressing joy, and as if expressing... worship.
Angel's abnormality also attracted Fafnir's attention. Especially since these flames were from the mark of Odkras, she was even more concerned.
Fafnir tapped her toes and flew from the treetops to Angel's side. She frowned and looked at the leaping flames with a look of suspicion.
A breeze penetrated the place where the flames jumped, as if trying to find out the truth, and seemed to dance with them.
After a while, Fafnir suddenly thought of something and suddenly raised his head to look at the sky full of fire patterns.
"Could it be... the birth of the source fire?"
