Chapter 2373 Who Is the BOSS? (The Heating at Home Is Leaking.)
Quartz Gate.
It used to be the seat of the old city hall and the artificial island management company, and it has been completely emptied. The overall building looks like a huge gem palace, a gorgeous castle wrapped in transparent glass walls.
Now, this beautiful palace has been abandoned, but it still does not lose its former style.
Ellie followed Zaharias into the castle, and soon saw six ice coffins under the glass ceiling, which were exactly the same as the No. 12 ice coffin that Ellie had seen in the ruins before. There are also girls with the same appearance sleeping inside, but Ellie can feel strong magic power from them.
And in the center of these coffins, there is also a gray-haired girl wrapped in gem crystals.
"Welcome to my 'Flame Banquet', Miss Ellie."
Zaharias stopped, then suddenly turned around and bowed elegantly to Ellie, and when he raised his head again, the face of the middle-aged man had changed into a gray-haired The faces of teenagers.
This set of face-changing games is pretty good.
Ellie just looked at him quietly, with a smile on her face, her expression didn't change at all. Zaharias took a step back and looked at her with a smile.
"Let me introduce myself again. I am Baltasaru Zaharias, the blood follower of the fourth true ancestor."
"When does it begin?"
After listening to Zaharias' self-introduction, Ellie just glanced at the ice coffins, and then asked. Hearing Ellie's question, Zaharias' expression froze slightly.
He originally thought that the other party would ask why he wanted to resurrect the Fourth True Ancestor, and what he wanted to do, so that he could say everything he wanted to say. But Zaharias didn't expect this little girl to be so disrespectful to herself, she didn't ask anything, and coming here was like a routine, and she didn't care or care about why he wanted to resurrect the Fourth Primogenitor.
Something seems wrong...
As a merchant of death, Zaharias instinctively sensed a hint of danger. However, he calmed down his uneasiness and spoke again.
"Don't worry, Miss Allie, I don't intend to harm you, please don't be afraid, I just hope that you can reproduce the miracles you performed in the past."
Speaking of this, Zaharias paused for a moment, and looked at Ellie again. Now he is waiting for the other party to ask "what miracle", and then he can say what he said. However, Ellie just took out her mobile phone from her cloak and glanced at the time, then looked at Zaharias again.
"Can we start? I'm in a hurry."
“……………………”
Something is wrong, very wrong.
Looking at Ellie who was calm and composed, even a little bored, Zaharias felt more and more uneasy. This was definitely not the reaction he expected from the other party, but at this moment Zaharias no longer hesitated and raised his hands high.
"Then, let's start, the feast of flames...! Please wake up, Fourth Primogenitor! Your servants are here to offer sacrifices for you, praying for your awakening!!"
"Woo..."
At the same time, the body of the girl lying in the ice coffin began to emit a cold blood-red radiance, and as if corresponding to it, the same color appeared on Ellie's body. Seeing this, Zaharias finally breathed a sigh of relief, because Ellie's behavior was so strange that he even doubted whether this girl was really boarded by the soul of the fourth primogenitor as rumored, Frankly speaking, just now Zaharias even suspected that this girl might be just a trap, but now it seems that... the soul of the fourth primogenitor is indeed in her body.
"Woo... ah..."
At this moment, Ellie closed her eyes tightly, holding her head and trembling slightly as if in great pain. The bright red magic power condensed on her body like a torrent, and the next moment, the black wings condensed by the magic power suddenly flew from behind Ellie. It unfolded, and then several tentacles shot out from it, piercing the chests of the six girls in the ice coffin, and the blood vessels on them began to fluctuate rapidly, as if they were absorbing something.
Afterwards, the six girls who were sealed by the ice coffin were shrouded in brilliance and disappeared without a trace.
At the same time, Ellie is equally uncomfortable.
Although the fourth true ancestor's soul has been destroyed, her memory, knowledge, and power still exist. It's just that it was sleeping in Ellie's body like a compressed bag before. But now, with the input of the "decompression password", the compressed package was released in an instant, bursting out information dozens of times its capacity.
If Fangzheng or Red Ponytail were here, then the information flow erupted by the Fourth True Ancestor was nothing more than spring breeze blowing on his face, meaningless. But it was still too difficult for Ellie.
At the same time, what poured into Ellie's body were the souls of the six girls—no, strictly speaking, it should be the twelve beasts that belonged to the fourth primogenitor and were sealed in the bodies of the six girl dolls. The vampire feeds the beasts in his own blood, and now, they have escaped from the false shell and returned to their original masters.
To put it simply, this is like a computer with a medium configuration, and at the same time open the highest quality "Crysis", "Doom", "GTA", "Assassin's Creed", "Metro" and "The Elder Scrolls" with 4K high-definition texture ……………
This computer is about to explode!
What Ellie has to do now is to use the mouse to close these automatically installed and running games as soon as possible on the nearly crashed computer. Otherwise, I am afraid that her CPU, graphics card, memory, etc. will be completely destroyed, and the motherboard will definitely be scrapped. up!
"puff!!"
Blood spewed out from Ellie's mouth. At this moment, she was behind her, and the wings that had been congealed like flesh and blood gradually exuded shining colors. Seeing this scene, Zaharias clenched his hands excitedly and stared at the girl in front of him.
However, after a while, suddenly, everything gradually changed.
The wings that originally shone with colorful brilliance gradually lost their light, and then turned into a dark whirlwind, gradually wrapping around the girl's body, and then quietly dissipated.
Afterwards, Ellie slowly opened her eyes, she blinked, and then moved her hands and feet.
"I didn't expect the power of the fourth true ancestor to be a bit difficult to control, but it's okay..."
While speaking, Ellie nodded to Zaharias in front of her.
"Thank you for your assistance, then I'm leaving."
"Wait, wait a minute!!!"
Seeing the girl in front of him turn around to leave, Zaharia was stunned for a moment. He didn't understand what was going on at all. Could it be that the ceremony failed? This is impossible! It is obvious that the six flames Yebo have already resonated with her, and the powerful power just now really came from the fourth true ancestor! As the follower of the Fourth Primogenitor, it is naturally impossible for him to miss this point! !
But why doesn't this girl seem to have changed in any way, and what do you mean by... leaving?
"Aren't you willing to obey my wish? You don't accept the plea of my blood entourage? As the emperor chooser, I offered a sacrifice for you!!"
"I took it kindly."
Ellie turned around, the smile on her face unchanged.
"However, I didn't use those 'sacrifices' of yours, but returned them intact... Those magic powers came from the people in your territory, sorry, maybe the original Fourth True Ancestor needed this stuff, but it's too much for me, so I don't need it."
From the memory of the fourth true ancestor, Ellie has already clearly understood why this true ancestor needs a "flame feast" to awaken. As mentioned before, this world setting has the theory of "intrinsic time accumulation", which means that the longer a person exists and the more events he experiences, the stronger his magic power will be.
The fourth true ancestor is different from the other three true ancestors in that it was created, so her "intrinsic time accumulation" is far inferior to other true ancestors, so a lot of "intrinsic time" is required to fully awaken her , and to put it bluntly, the Flame Banquet is essentially to find hundreds of thousands or more people and dedicate their memories to the Fourth Primogenitor—well, it is equivalent to paying me one dollar per person, as long as 1.2 billion people Give me a dollar and I can become a billionaire.
To put it bluntly, it's like a vitality bullet like a vampire.
Of course, this is not without cost, and the person who dedicated the memory will lose this part of the memory. Of course, Ellie doesn't need this, because of the setting of this world, the magic power in her body is so overflowing that she can't use it up. She just didn't find the "decompression password" before. Now that she has the "decompression password", then Ellie is completely Relying on her own magic power can drive the power of the fourth primogenitor, and does not need any other people's memory at all—so she returned all those inherent times.
"........."
Hearing this, Zaharias' expression gradually froze.
"What do you mean by... 'original'?"
"Literally."
Ellie looked at him with a smile.
"The fourth primogenitor was killed by me two years ago, and her soul has been completely wiped out by me, and only the power remains in my body. I had thought about how to release this power... I didn't expect you He actually came to my door and held an awakening ceremony for me, well, thanks to you, I have successfully recovered six beasts, ah, including the original ones in my body, it should be counted as seven? All in all, thank you very much."
"you you……………"
Looking at Ai Li who put his hands together and thanked him with a smile, Zaharias' face was livid. He raised his hand tremblingly and pointed at Ai Li. His face became red and pale, but soon, he forced himself to After calming down, he looked at Ellie and begged in a low voice.
"Even so, I still beg for your help, the great Fourth True Ancestor. I am your emperor chooser, and I held a 'Banquet of Flames' for you. I only have one wish!"
Roaring, Zaharias pointed at the gray-haired girl's body that was originally wrapped in the ice coffin.
"That's my sister! She used to be the number one guardian priestess, but in the end, she died protecting your beast, and I was killed trying to protect her, but my sister resurrected me in the end, making me Became the No. 1 Blood Servant! So, I hope you will be merciful and bring my sister back to life!"
"Aha……………"
Faced with Zaharias' painful begging and screams, Ellie sighed helplessly.
"Mr. Zaharias, that, although it's hard to say, but the memory of the beast is shared with me, do you understand what I mean?"
"........."
"Your sister did die to protect No. 1, but ah, she died in your hands. Well, you killed your sister in order to obtain No. 1's ribs, and then robbed The number one rib became the blood follower of the fourth primogenitor..."
While talking, Ellie looked at him and shook her head.
"It's just an excuse that you want to resurrect your sister. By the way, I'm also a witch. Do you think I didn't find the magic trap you hid in your sister's body? I really don't understand it, Zaharias Sir, what gave you the courage to think that you can fool the Fourth True Ancestor with such a trick?"
"No...I..."
"By the way, you originally thought that the soul of the fourth ancestor was in my body, so you wanted to capture the soul of the fourth ancestor and manipulate it, but I'm really sorry, the soul of the fourth ancestor has completely disappeared So it seems that your wishful thinking is not going to work."
While talking, Ellie snapped her fingers. The next moment, the blazing Fierce Fire suddenly emerged as a big snake, opened its mouth and devoured the crystal in one gulp, turning it into ashes together with the sleeping girl's body.
"I hope you don't find such a retarded brother as your brother in your next life."
Looking at the girl's body that disappeared into ashes, Airi muttered something in a low voice, and then looked at Zaharias not far away again. But this time, the gray-haired boy had a terrified expression and staggered back. He looked at Ellie with fear in his eyes, as if he saw some big devil...
Ok? Shouldn't he be the BOSS who tried to wake up the Fourth Primogenitor and use it for manipulation?
Why does it feel like I've become a BOSS now?
"Oh, by the way, I have to take something back from you in the end. Number one is also very angry. It's time to settle the shame of being forcibly taken away from your ribs."
As she spoke, Ellie took out her wand.
"Flying ribs."
"Woo... ah..."
Accompanied by Ellie's chanting, Zaharia suddenly stopped at the next moment. He grabbed his chest in pain and scratched hard. But soon, his chest exploded, and then two broken ribs flew out of it. At the same time, Zaharias, who had lost his ribs, turned into a cloud of dust, shattering like broken sawdust.
And those two ribs were also engulfed by flames on the way, and completely disappeared.
Ellie raised her hands, stretched her waist, and looked around—the men in black who were following her had slipped away completely without a trace.
It's really a tree falling and macaques scattered.
Thinking of this, Ellie shrugged her shoulders and sighed, then she glanced at the broken hall in front of her again, and turned around.
It's time to go home, Nagisa is still waiting to make dinner by herself.
