MTL - Fucking Beauty In Escape Game-Chapter 55
In the past, the gates of the city were always guarded by soldiers, but today they are empty and the gates are closed.
Li Xi looked up at the closed city gate, said after a moment of silence: "Go back."
Duan Zhen looked at him suspiciously.
The young man's expression was very complicated. He had expected this result long ago, but he still did not hesitate to get up early and come here just to take a look at the city gate.
"What are you thinking?" Duan Zhen asked.
"I was thinking that if I had the power I have now, maybe nothing would have happened." Li Xi gently stroked the mane of the horse under him, and said in a calm tone: "Let's go, if you don't go back, the city will be in chaos."
He remembered what happened next for decades. Every time he closed his eyes, he would see the river of blood in the city. People's desperate cries and the sound of blades piercing their bodies would surround his ears. If it wasn't for Senafel A force that he may have long been unbearable.
Duan Zhen is keenly aware that Li Xi is not in a good mood now, or in a bad mood.
He lowered his eyes and pondered for a moment, recalling what the other party said and the altar of the demon king below, and suddenly realized what kind of tragedy would be staged in front of him.
He caught up with Li Xi on horseback, and he was on an equal footing with him, he was silent for a while and said: "If you don't want to watch it, you don't have to watch it."
"You're right." Li Xi smiled, "But I want to see it as a reminiscence of my childhood."
He always used an understatement tone and wording to describe the events of the year, but Duan Zhen could feel that the scar hadn't healed, it traversed Li Xi's heart, just a light touch would cause pain.
But Duan Zhen didn't know how to heal the other party.
They just rode back to the city slowly, and the city was already in chaos. The people gathered spontaneously, with grief-stricken faces, and shouted to avenge the Duke. Among them, several people in black robes shuttled through the crowd.
"Those are the rebels." Li Xi said, riding on his horse, watching the scene from a distance: "The people who gathered spontaneously because the Duke was killed for no reason, and wanted to explain... Whether their ultimate goal is this or not, they All failed."
The royal family sent a great magician to directly destroy the city with a forbidden curse. Except for him, almost everyone died.
Of course, later Li Xi used the same forbidden curse to slaughter the royal family, which was regarded as an eye for an eye.
"Your Excellency Philote." A black-robed man suddenly appeared in front of them, and bowed respectfully to Li Xi: "The city needs you to take charge of the overall situation now, please cheer up."
Li Xi didn't dismount, but looked down at this man: "What do you want to do?"
"Help the Lord Duke get justice!" The black-robed man said righteously: "The Lord Duke was brutally killed by the royal family just to find Senafel for you. This is totally unreasonable and not tolerated by God."
Li Xi tilted his head: "Of course I will avenge my father's revenge, there is no need to sacrifice you."
"But the royal family has already regarded Senafir as their own, and they will definitely not let you go in the future." The black-robed man gritted his teeth and said, "Your Excellency Filot, why don't you leave here quickly, and we will fight for you with all our might." Time to escape."
Although he seemed to be thinking about Li Xi in every sentence, in fact, there was no young and energetic young man who obviously had the ability to resist after his father died because of himself, and would run away like a bereaved dog.
Li Xi didn't understand it back then, but now he can see it clearly.
He slightly bent his lips: "Okay."
The man in black was obviously stunned for a moment, but he didn't expect him to agree. Immediately afterwards, his body twisted suddenly, and his voice became hoarse and mechanical: "Your Excellency Philot, host, the overall situation."
At the same time, everyone outside, including the previous people, all turned their heads and stared in Li Xi's direction, their voices overlapping: "Your Majesty Philot, host, the overall situation."
"I really can't do anything about you." Li Xi's face remained unchanged, he nodded and said: "In this case, I will stay and organize my strength to seek justice for my father."
After finishing speaking, he lightly clamped the horse's belly and walked towards the Duke's mansion.
Along the way, everyone was staring at them with wooden mechanical eyes, their heads turning in the direction of Li Xi. Duan Zhen hid his face under the black robe, observing those people secretly.
In just a short moment, the people who were real and alive just now became lifeless, their eyes were covered with a layer of gray film, their muscles were stiff, and their faces were blue-gray.
Although he didn't become a monster like yesterday, he probably wasn't a kind person either.
The people in the duke's mansion were similar, the butler held up Li Xi's horse stiffly, but his eyes were fixed on Li Xi, his mouth was slightly opened, and there was a strange gurgling sound in his voice.
"Not yet." Li Xi's eyes turned cold.
The butler's eyes flashed with clarity, and he led the horse away.
Duan Zhen continued to be his follower, walked in with him, and asked in a low voice: "These people will change soon, and it will be difficult to deal with if they are surrounded."
"It's okay." Richie said.
He gathered his black robe, led Duan Zhen all the way to the study, sat on the main seat, raised his head and sighed.
"Father is not so loved by others." He murmured, perhaps because he suddenly had the desire to confide in him. When everything happened, he was immersed in grief and disbelief, and he never looked at this place carefully: "He He was a stern and cruel man, at least from the outside. There is no doubt that he loved me very much, but he rarely hugged me or smiled at me. When I was a child, I always wondered if I was not loved by my father, even And because of this, I got into a lot of temper tantrums with him.”
"However... I didn't realize how important he was in my heart until he died." After finishing speaking, Li Xi sighed again, and took out a mirror-like thing from the drawer, with three words printed on it. Individuals, a young couple with a baby in their arms.
Li Xi stared at the mirror in a daze, and clicked his tongue after a long while: "This world is so realistic."
Duan Zhen was beside him, and saw the faces of the two men, the man had black hair and blue eyes, even at this moment he pursed his lips and frowned, showing seriousness. On the other hand, the woman has long blond curly hair, leaning against the man, with the corners of her lips raised upwards, and her smile is warm and warm. The blue-eyed baby in her arms sucked her fingers, raised a white foot, and looked towards this side curiously.
As long as you have met Li Xi, you can tell at a glance that he is related to these two people by blood.
He has inherited the woman's beauty very well, but the subtle changes in his face made his appearance as sharp as a man's. When the smile is suppressed, the eyes are as serious and cold as ice.
However, Li Xi always only showed a sweet smile to him, so Duan Zhen didn't know what those eyes really looked like until now.
Duan Zhen's mood became more and more complicated. He looked at Li Xi's profile and opened his mouth, but in the end he didn't make a sound to interrupt the other party's thoughts.
Whether it is Senafel or Li Xi, he is just a person who misses his parents now.
While Li Xi was looking at the magic photos, Duan Zhen began to look at the study again.
He came here once on the first night, and because of limited time, he only looked through the account books on the desktop and some other information. Looking at the bookshelf now, I saw a lot of books on human geography, and some magic books. Pulling it out to see, it is full of densely packed characters, but those characters are crooked and crooked, a type that has never been seen before.
...the books on the desktop are all in Chinese.
At this time, Li Xi had already put down the photo, and reached out to pick up the account book. Duan Zhen walked to him again, and saw that the text on it was still Chinese characters, but Li Xi did not have the slightest dyslexia, and his doubts in his heart deepened.
They stayed in the study for half an hour, Li Xi had no intention of going out, and there was no movement outside. Duan Zhen looked at him and said suddenly: "Li Xi?"
Li Xi didn't move, and looked up at him after a while, and said with a half-smile: "If you have anything to say, you can say it directly,"
"Do you have any impression of this name?" Duan Zhen asked.
Now that he has decided to ask, he did not delay: "Are you Senafir or Li Xi?"
"I couldn't see this thing before." Li Xi raised his wrist and shook it, and the smart bracelet was clasped on his white wrist: "But I can see it later, but there is no mission on it."
Li Xi got up, approached Duan Zhen, and looked deeply into his eyes: "If I am both Senafel and Li Xi, what are you going to do, part ways with me?"
Speaking of this, he gave a low laugh, took Duan Zhen's hand and put it on his chest, whispering: "Or kill me directly. In the game of four demon kings, if I die, I will get four points." The collapse of one of the worlds may save many people."
Duan Zhen's breathing was slightly stagnant. He looked at Li Xi, but he didn't expect the other party to say such a thing.
"Were you pretending before?" he asked.
Li Xi blinked and blinked: "Guess."
He stood up straight and stretched his waist: "I won't play after this time."
Duan Zhen frowned at him, suddenly grabbed his wrist, and looked at the smart bracelet. There is indeed no task on it, but it still shows that it is turned on.
"The game of the four devil kings, what's the matter with the system?" Duan Zhen asked: "If I'm not wrong, you are in a magical world. Is there such a technological thing as the main system?"
The author has something to say: Duan Duan: Could it be that the previous eachother lied to me!
Li Xi: ...You may not believe it, but I don't remember either.
