Chapter 179: Capturing the Mother of Gargoyles (Free Chapter)

"What? No way? Could it be... Could it be that my Black Dragon Clan still has... old subordinates?"

September 1, the ninth game cycle, the game world of the Endless Sea.

Li Feng, who met Xia again, told her about the visit of the troll last night.

Hearing that there were still trolls loyal to her, Xia sat down with the help of the table in shock.

"Wait, you said he is..."

"He claims to be a troll from the Island of Wrathful Sands, named Haizan."

Li Feng recalled and said:

"But he seems to have another identity, I have heard about it from the strong wine of the Violet Eye.

Their chief predicted that the new Haishi Tyrant is a troll holding a voodoo doll in one hand and a white candle in the other.

And the Haizan I saw last night is consistent with his description.

In short, light the candle tonight, and you will know when you meet him."

The strong sun in midsummer shines on the green leaves and casts shadows on the windows.

After hearing what Li Feng said, Xia was stunned for a long time with a complicated expression. After that, the young dragon who had sorted out his thoughts was slightly excited.

"That is to say... But, he is loyal to my mother. What if..."

Suddenly realizing this, Xia lowered her head and covered her face with her hands, feeling uneasy and guilty.

Looking at her, Li Feng suddenly found it funny and couldn't help thinking that Xia was like an outdated star.

Suddenly one day, I found that I still had a fan, and then I was worried that I would lose fans.

"Don't think too much."

Li Feng comforted her and continued:

"I feel that the troll is not low in rank. Maybe after seeing you tonight, he will break the oath and set up his own mountain."

"Hmm, hm?"

Hearing Li Feng's first sentence of comfort, Xia just felt a little relieved, but heard the second sentence, she was choked.

'Is this guy a demon? No! Demons are not as hateful as him! '

"Don't worry, I have a way."

Looking at Xia with a complicated mood, Li Feng, who had made a joke, added another sentence.

…

Under the clear night sky, the stars are shining.

“I should go out and avoid it, right?”

In the room with only moonlight at midnight, Li Feng said to the black cat sitting on the chair.

Because the troll Haizan has no body, but only an ethereal soul, he can only appear at midnight.

And normal people who stay up late at night and go to the room of the opposite sex will definitely arouse suspicion.

So after the maid Shirley fell asleep, Xia turned into a black cat and ran over.

But she was about to meet her loyal old subordinates for the first time, and Xia felt that it was too undignified to be in the form of a cat.

As for turning back into a dragon, she is still a young dragon, not much bigger than a cat, and can't be compared with her mother at all.

So after thinking about it, she decided to turn into a human.

But turning from a cat to a human involves the issue of needing time to put on clothes again.

Xia was sad at the moment, and felt that her dragon life was simply embarrassing to the extreme.

“I created a spell that can keep clothes.”

Xia replied.

Since the embarrassing problem happened on the new island last time, Xia has studied a spell that can help her avoid embarrassment when changing her form.

"Oh——"

Li Feng, who originally planned to go out to avoid it, suddenly became interested when he heard that the spell could be created by himself, and he was ready to study it himself in the future.

And now he also wanted to see how a cat turned into a human. He had only seen it in anime and TV dramas before, and it was the first time he saw it with his own eyes.

So he stood there, looking at the black cat on the chair and waiting.

"Uh——"

"What's wrong?"

"You should go out first."

"Why?"

"My self-created spell may not be useful."

"..."

The midsummer evening breeze blew the bright moonlight, and everything was cool.

"Sizzle."

The match slid and lit the candle.

The cold blue candlelight flickered, and the blue-gray smoke rose.

Not long after, a tall blue figure appeared by the window.

It was the troll Haizan.

In the dark room with only moonlight and weak candlelight, Haizan slowly opened his eyes and saw Li Feng and Xia.

Then there was a period of recognition between the monarch and the minister.

In Li Feng's opinion, the troll Haizan was a person who kept his oath and valued honor.

He did not have any disloyalty or disrespect because Xia was a young dragon or Xia's rank was far lower than his.

He was almost relieved, but the next second, Li Feng heard Haizan say to Xia.

There is a ritual that can kill the owner of the contract with him while preserving his life. As long as the owner dies, the contract will be terminated.

Although the ritual has been lost, the sincere troll Haizan said that he is willing to go to the marginal island for Xia to find the spell for the ceremony.

Li Feng: ? ? ?

No, this troll is so serious about the conspiracy, but he doesn't even avoid me, the person involved?

He was both amused and angry, but Li Feng also realized that compared with the troll Haizan, his strength is still far behind.

It's not that I don't want to avoid you, it's that I don't need to avoid you at all.

Turning his eyes to Xia, Xia stood by the table with her arms folded and frowned in the dark room.

Li Feng then realized that there was only one chair in the room. He was sitting while Xia was standing. This seemed a bit difficult for Haizan, who was loyal to Black Dragon, to accept.

"Haizan, if you have not violated your oath and are still loyal to me, then you must also be loyal to Mr. Rhine."

Under the faint moonlight, Sia's tone was majestic.

Li Feng was slightly startled. This was the first time he heard Xia use such a tone.

"But……"

Troll Hazan opened his mouth in surprise, and wanted to say something with mixed feelings, but was interrupted by Xia:

"No but! Mr. Rhine is my close friend and the person I trust most.

Hazan, if you cannot be as loyal to him as you are to me, then you can break the oath of allegiance to the Black Dragon King that the trolls have sworn for generations. "

When saying these words, Sia's tone was more stern and unquestionable.

"I don't dare! The Nusha Island troll is determined to follow the Black Dragon King to the death and has no intention of disobedience."

Seeing Xia's anger, Hazan immediately lowered his eyes and knelt on one knee, bowing his head to show his loyalty.

Seeing this, Xia was very satisfied. After packing up her subordinates, she looked at Li Feng.

Li Feng was still lamenting about Haizan's stubbornness and stubbornness in vows and glory. He was stunned for a moment before he came to his senses.

“What else do you know about the Theater of Sorrow?”

Li Feng asked Hai praised.

He had discussed with Shia before that Hazan might know everything about the collection of gargoyle heads at Storm's End.

Not only because he once picked up the goods of Storm's End that were lost at sea, but also because he is the "tyrant" in charge of the sea market.

The tidal scepter gives him absolute control over the sea market, so people with different needs will communicate with each other in the sea market, and sell items or news on consignment.

"Reporting to Your Excellency, um..."

Because of Xia, Hazan also treated Li Feng with the same respect.

But just when he was about to reply, his plump and pointed ears moved, as if he heard some news.

Then the expression on his lion-like face gradually became solemn:

“Master, Your Excellency, I just heard the news.

The governor of Storm Island prepared a ceremony with the head of a gargoyle. He intended it to be in the Theater of Sorrow, and there might be something big tomorrow. "

As soon as these words came out, Li Feng and Xia looked at each other, and they were both reasonably shocked.

"So fast……"

Sia frowned, because the power contained in the Theater of Sorrow belonged to her ancestors, so Sia was very unhappy now.

She whispered:

"Pangros Fell used gargoyle heads to set up a barrier. What was he trying to deal with?"

"I wonder if the master has heard the songs of the ancestors of mankind."

Hazan replied:

"Under the moonlight, on the bell tower, the blood of the python frightened her, and the heir's head imprisoned her..."

"What's the meaning?"

Shia was puzzled.

"The monster in the theater is the gargoyle mother, the princess who appears as the stepdaughter in the story."

Li Feng said that Haizan's words made him more convinced of his previous divination.

"Your Excellency is right, she is the mother of gargoyles."

Hazan didn't expect that Li Feng already knew the truth, and was slightly stunned.

"Is there any way you can destroy the governor's ceremony?"

Li Feng didn't want to talk in circles anymore and went straight to the point:

"I don't want Penlos Fell to get the power of the Theater of Sorrows. Besides, I have a way to kill the Mother Gargoyle."

"this--"

Fortunately for Xia, she understands Li Feng's approach and he won't do anything he's not sure about.

But Hazan took it seriously and stayed there for a long time. He couldn't believe it.

'This human actually said he had a way to kill the Mother Gargoyle? ’

The Mother Gargoyle is a monster that appeared in previous eras.

Legend has it that in that strange and primitive era, a palace exuding unknown and ominous appeared from the deep sea.

No one knows what race built those palaces, and no one knows who they belong to.

Because these palaces are magnificent and extremely exquisite in structure, they are completely unlike what the existing races in the Endless Sea could build at that time.

They are more like the creations of those legendary advanced races that have disappeared in the endless river of time.

The palace that appeared on the sea caused an uproar for a while, and some people were looking for clues on the palace.

They soon discovered that on the spiers and corners of the palace, there were exquisitely carved and lifelike statues of humanoid monsters.

The faces of those monsters resembled bats and evil spirits, their torsos and limbs resembled those of humans, and their backs had broad wings that were longer than their body length.

Unlike the wings of legendary angels, those wings are similar to those of bats or flying squirrels, with a very thin layer of skin.

People have never seen such weird creatures, let alone what race they are, and what kind of relationship they have with the owner of the palace.

But not long after, on a full moon night, someone discovered that these lifelike monster statues could absorb the brilliance of the full moon, and then they came to life.

The monster flew away under the bright moonlight and disappeared, leaving no one able to find it.

But since then, various horrific, strange or tragic news has gradually spread from various islands in the Endless Sea.

Later, a priest asked the gods for instructions, and the gods informed people that it was the immortal mother of gargoyles.

They are afraid of the blood of pythons and are at their weakest at sunrise every day. If you want to imprison them, you can only use the heads of their offspring.

This is where the songs of human ancestors came into being.

But at that time, the gods only showed people how to imprison the mother gargoyles, but did not tell people how to kill them.

So whether it is the Black Dragon Queen of the previous generation or the current Dragon-Slaying Governor.

They can only use the head of the gargoyle to imprison the mother of gargoyles in the Theater of Sorrow, thereby seizing the power in the theater.

But now, what even the Black Dragon Queen and the Dragon-Slaying Governor cannot do, this human being actually does so lightly and easily.

Although he was horrified and doubtful in his heart, Hazan did not show it. He could not question those whom the Black Dragon King believed.

After pondering for a while, Hazan said:

“With the master’s black dragon bloodline and the troll’s secret method, we can indeed stop the ritual.

You can even tamper with the anchor point that gathers power in the ritual so that the owner can obtain the power of the ancestors, but..."

Hazan looked at the moonlight outside the window when he said this, and paused, as if he had something to hide.

"but what?"

Shia asked with a frown.

"Compared to Master, Your Excellency has already discovered it."

Hazan's eyes turned back from the window, he lowered his head slightly and looked lonely:

"I am just a soul that has lost its body and is like duckweed..."

"It's still a very weak soul that can't even withstand the moonlight rising to the sky. Why?"

Li Feng interrupted the troll and asked, this is the only thing he doesn't understand so far.

Hazan's soul state reminded Li Feng of the former Mrs. Alvin.

Madam, a mere mortal, would not be so weak in her soul state.

As for the Hazan in front of him, he looked like a high-level transcendent when he was alive, but why was his soul state so weak after death?

Li Feng's straightforwardness made Hazan temporarily speechless. After a moment of reflection, Hazan didn't intend to beat around the bush.

He carefully waved the broken voodoo doll in his hand, and then countless blue light spots lit up around him and outside the window behind him.

Li Feng and Xia looked carefully and saw that among those blue light spots were weak troll souls.

"This is Nusha Island, the last three thousand warriors."

Hazan looked at the blue light around him with pity and explained:

"In that protracted battle with other clans, the entire Nusha Island army was wiped out. As their clan leader, I couldn't bear the demise of the clan that had lasted for thousands of years.

So I used a secret method to collect the souls of the three thousand warriors who fought alongside me in voodoo dolls, and waited until one day to find a way to resurrect them.

But the voodoo doll is not a perfect object to carry the soul. I can only continue to inject mana and work hard to maintain it. "

Hazan said, holding up the white candle. The candle was half burned, leaving only a short section:

"Master, your Excellency, please see, when this eternal candle burns to the end, it will be the day when my soul and the warriors of Nusha Island will die."

Under the moonlight, Hazan's shoulders slumped, and the tall troll lowered his head, like a defeated rooster. He had no energy at all and was left feeling lonely.

And the blue light spots behind him were also trembling and gathering around their clan leader.

Although I couldn't see their faces clearly, I knew they were sad and crying.

Seeing this, Xia was a little moved, not only the same hatred of genocide.

Also, I originally thought there was only one subordinate, but suddenly discovered that there were three thousand more subordinates. But the next second, I was told that these three thousand and one subordinates would soon be wiped out.

It's like riding a roller coaster.

But after thinking about it, she had no choice, so Xia looked at Li Feng silently.

Li Feng didn't expect this to be the case. After thinking for a moment, he asked:

"So, you sent ogres to lock the fallen crew members in a cave, just to use their bodies to resurrect them?"

"yes."

Hazan admitted, but he thought that Li Feng was also a human being, so he explained:

"I did not harm them, and in fact, resurrection is not feasible."

"Then what are you going to do?"

After clearing up this doubt, Li Feng didn't want to get entangled, so he continued to ask.

"To be honest with you, in order to revive, I have been inquiring about the whereabouts of the Tide Scepter.

Just a few days ago, I worked together with the warriors to seize the Tide Scepter. Now I am the tyrant of the sea city.

I plan to reopen Hai Market soon. "

Hazan replied, and Li Feng could feel the hope in his tone.

But Xia didn’t understand:

"Is there a causal relationship between the reopening of Haishi and your resurrection?"

"The master may not know something."

Upon hearing the Black Dragon King's inquiry, Hazan immediately replied:

"Last month, the demon in the sea came ashore and said that Faranir's notebook had appeared, and in that notebook, the mermaid's spell on resurrection was recorded.

Unfortunately, not long after, there was news that the human king had obtained the notes.

The subject is already a weak soul, knowing that he cannot seize the notebook from the king, so he can only become a tyrant and reopen the sea market, just to collect clues and contents of Faranir's notebook.

As long as the sea market reopens and all forces and races exchange what they have, I believe that it is impossible for the human king to give up this opportunity.

When the time comes, the minister will let him use the resurrection spell as a bargaining chip in exchange for what he wants. "

So that's it. After hearing this, Li Feng suddenly wanted to laugh.

Remembering the fortune-telling results he once obtained using a fortune teller's letter opener——

“Storms at sea bring opportunities.”

At that time, Li Feng thought that the storm at sea had brought a new island, and that he discovered the lost goods of Storm's End on the new island, which was already an opportunity.

What I didn't expect was that this opportunity turned out to be the leader of the trolls on Nusha Island and his three thousand warriors.

and his tyrannical power over the sea market.

"If I could give you an excellent item that carries your soul, how would you repay me?"

Li Feng's words are concise and concise.

"Varied……"

Hai Zan thought he had heard wrongly. Under the moonlight, his lion-like face was stunned for a long time before he said:

"If you can really give me an item to carry the soul, I will offer the Tide Scepter after I find a way to revive."

Hearing Hai Zan's words, Li Feng raised his eyebrows slightly. He didn't expect Hai Zan to be willing to pay so much.

But since he became a tyrant just to revive, it is not difficult to understand.

Exceeding the expected requirements, Li Feng threw something to Hai Zan.

Hai Zan instinctively caught it and took it in his hand. It turned out to be a bag with gorgeous patterns.

"This, this is..."

In the Endless Sea, the trolls have always been good at recording and collecting various secret methods. Hai Zan naturally understood what he had in his hand-the dragon bag.

And it was a dragon bag that was promoted using tailoring skills and could perfectly carry the soul.

Once upon a time, Hai Zan had considered finding or making such a bag. After all, it is much more useful than a voodoo doll in carrying souls.

However, both the production process and the required materials have long disappeared in the ever-changing history.

It is said that the last clue is still related to Faranil, so Haizan tried every means to find the Tide Scepter and reopen the sea market.

But unexpectedly, this human being, who is so hard to obtain, actually...

Haizan was shocked again, and he suddenly understood the attitude of the Black Dragon King towards this human being.

"Sir, are you really willing to lend such a valuable thing... to the trolls of Nusha Island?"

Haizan asked cautiously. He knew that the luggage was valuable, so he didn't dare to say that he would give it, but only said that he would lend it.

Li Feng didn't agree with it. He nodded, but added:

"I have another condition. Since the souls of you and your subordinates have found a place to live, you don't have to endure the suffering of sunlight and moonlight.

Then tamper with the ritual of the gargoyle head now, change the anchor point, and let the Black Dragon King get the power of her ancestors.

As for the mother of the gargoyles who was imprisoned by the ritual, bring her to see me."

Li Feng arranged the rest of the plan.

Haizan listened carefully, because his soul already had a place to rely on, these requests were not worth mentioning to the three thousand troll warriors.

At that moment, Haizan bowed his head and accepted the order:

"Please rest assured, your Excellency. I will use the secret method to change the ritual anchor point.

When the sun rises today, I will bring the mother of gargoyles to you."
