Chapter 368: Fire in July
Something's wrong with me?
What's wrong? !
Of course Zheng Qing knew something was wrong with him - because he was a serious wizard, not a lich, and the red eyes were an accident - but these demons in the dark prison should not know.
After hearing the tiger-headed demon's words, he immediately held his breath, his brain gurgled like boiling water, and he began to think quickly about where he had gone wrong.
There is a slight difference between the dark red of the eyes and the scarlet of demons. Generally, it cannot be seen without looking carefully. Coupled with the dark environment in the dark prison, the eyes of these demons also have a layer of darkness and their eyesight has deteriorated. , in theory, this is the most reliable evidence that he is a demon.
He had just smeared the wolf demon's plasma on his robes, shoe uppers, wrists, etc. Although he could not completely conceal the wizard's aura, he had already thought of a good excuse - if these demons asked, he would He said that he had just eaten a few little wizards before he came in, and he must talk about this kind of thing in a sinister and arrogant tone.
He has even found a suitable identity for himself.
Just switch the role of Nikita to yourself. The monsters in front of them, whose bodies have changed drastically, must have been in the dark prison for a long time. No one should know about Nikita as a rookie monster. Zheng Qing knew everything about the process of her fall, her journey between lich and siren, the reason why she was on the wanted list of the Wizards Alliance, and even her preferences and what she was doing before she was captured.
During the time when he climbed back to Linzhong Lake from the dreamland along the ivy, because he was a little bored, the wizard poked the banshee with his gun, telling all the big and small things on the Mist and the withered land of the lich. I asked about many interesting details, enough to cope with the inquiries of these monsters.
Even compared to most monsters, Nikita's experience is bizarre.
But it was this 'weirdness' that gave Zheng Qing enough confidence to fool people - because everything he said was true. Many times, the more bizarre the facts are, the more people believe them. For example, many people believe that capital has a conscience. Another example is that people actually expected the An people to put down their butcher knives and convert to pagoda.
"What's wrong?"
The wizard laughed dryly, his mind spinning rapidly, and he was thinking about what he should do if his identity was really exposed due to some details, and these monsters pounced on him.
shot?
Or hold up a magic shield and hold back a big bomb?
Zheng Qing was naturally unwilling to waste his precious life on these bug-like monsters, but if there was a real possibility of being eaten by bugs, he would rather turn into a ball of light in the dark prison.
In the night.
Dozens of scarlet dots fell on Zheng Qing's body. Even the old lich shut up and looked at the wizard with a little more surprise.
Zheng Qing's heart was already in his throat. He swallowed quietly and slowly tightened his finger on the trigger.
The tiger demon walked around the wizard twice with a step of disowning his relatives. His long and slender tail beat him from side to side, smashing several rocks. His two huge eyes looked up and down, looking at him and muttering in his mouth. Gu, muttering something no one could understand.
After a long while, it grinned and asked: "Tell me, are you hiding something?"
"Huh?" Zheng Qing couldn't keep up with this silly cat.
"You must be hiding something secret!" The tiger demon glared at the wizard, with a thoughtful expression on his face: "The magic content in those two foods is obviously insufficient... You are a lich, you must have used something weird. The magic takes away the magic from the food...that's why you don't care about the food!"
The so-called 'magic content' refers to the total amount of magic power contained in the flesh and blood of the two corpses. This is also the basic indicator for judging the value among prisoners in the Black Prison World, and is comparable to the 'time' of the outside world.
The more the tiger demon talked, the more he felt that his speculation was reasonable, his tone became more certain, and his expression became more and more unkind. The other demons who were watching gradually began to make noises, and their eyes when looking at the wizard were not only scarlet but also drooling.
After Zheng Qing heard that it did not doubt his identity, he first breathed a sigh of relief, and then began to worry about how to explain that he did not 'hide something secret'.
After staying in the cat fruit tree for a long time, Zheng Qing understood one thing, that is, you can't talk logic or reason to silly cats. They will use their extraordinary stupid thinking to turn you into a fool - such as in In terms of his attitude towards his tail - although the tiger monster in front of him is not a serious cat, he was once a feline after all.
The truth is always the same.
"I don't lack magic power."
The wizard first denied the basis of the tiger demon's suspicion, and then explained very sincerely: "Before entering the black prison, I just ate a few little lichs...the Kunlun species with fine skin and tender meat, and the Europa that was over-pickled with spices. So... now my stomach is still very full and I have no appetite at all.”
In the night, there were some faint sounds of sucking saliva.
The wizard smiled secretly in his heart, then recalled what Nikita had once commented, and then simply packaged it and relayed: "...You may not know, but the 'preserved' method of eating is very popular outside now, which is to eat the little wizard you just captured. Cut into thin and translucent meat slices, the bones and flesh cannot be separated, and a layer of blood is brushed on top, so it tastes crispy and tough, and tastes fresh and sweet... Then dip it in the popular 'Duohua', and you only need One bite will make you feel full of magic all month long!”
"Before I came in, I ate more than one bite...I ate two, no, three complete little wizards! So now I feel like the magic in my body is about to explode...Why would I touch your food?"
The explanation was extremely sincere, especially the last sentence, because Zheng Qing had personal experience and his words came from the heart. It made all the demons present feel a subtle emotion, as if the little lich in front of him would explode in the next second.
In order to enhance his persuasiveness, Zheng Qing did not hesitate to waste his magic power, flipped through the spells recorded in the book, raised his hand and released a "July Fire" that required the support of huge magic power.
The surging magic power surged out of his body, disappeared into the depths of the void along the exquisite spells on the book, and then leveraged the huge and pure magic power among the clouds above the black prison, turning it into pieces of blazing flames, engulfing everyone. The heavy night above the demon's head was dyed in different shades of red.
Even the white rainbow that spanned hundreds of miles seemed a little dim among the burning clouds.
The tiger monster yelled.
The large and small demons that originally gathered around the wizard dispersed in a hurry, disappearing into the dark night in the blink of an eye, leaving no breath behind, as if those scarlet eyeballs surrounding Zheng Qing were his. the illusion.
That was certainly not an illusion, because in addition to the escaped demon, the old lich and the tiger demon appeared silently beside Zheng Qing, like two stones. If you didn't see it with your own eyes, you would judge it based on your spiritual sense alone. , Zheng Qing was completely unable to distinguish the difference between these two monsters and the large and small gravels in the wilderness.
It moves like a strong wind and is as quiet as a rock, switching between movement and stillness freely. Perhaps this is one of the main techniques for these weak monsters to survive in this dark world.
With this emotion deep in his heart, the wizard and the two demons looked up.
July is on fire.
Hundreds of fireballs broke through the thick clouds in the night sky of Black Prison, falling from the sky with long flame tails.
