Mystery: Undead don't die from passing fire

Chapter 289 Price
Several people looked at the center of the table almost at the same time, where a book made of yellow-brown parchment was spread out.

Wow~!

The book was flipped by an invisible wind, and when it reached the last page, Klein and the others saw the end:

"With the help of the brave warriors in the ancient dragon hunting war, the ring knights, Grossel fulfilled his promise and led his teammates to kill the 'King of the North' Yurisian, but their story is not over yet. "

"Will the story continue?"

The nobleman of the Solomon Empire, Mobet Zoroaster from the Fourth Epoch, gave a 'tsk', and his tone was a little uncomfortable:

"Speaking as if our destiny is still in its hands."

"Shatas, where do you want to go next?" Mobet said, suddenly turning his head to ask the elf singer.

Shatas' gaze was dazed for a few seconds, and then she said firmly:

"I……"

Before she finished speaking, she suddenly saw Mobet burning up!
It is truly 'ignited'!

The warm flames completely devoured his body, and only a vague figure could be seen through the flames.

Shatas reached out to touch subconsciously, but found that her body was also covered in flames.

Shatas's heart tightened, and after looking around, she realized that not only her, but Loen soldier Longzel, ascetic monk Snowman, and giant Grossel all ignited at the same time.

On the other hand, the three of Ember were still normal.

Mobet stopped Siatas who was about to explode, looked at the embers puzzled, and asked:
"What's the matter?"

Although his body was covered in flames, he didn't feel pain, instead he felt a healing warmth.

And the mutation on them was obviously related to Ember, who turned the ice and snow gate into a flame gate at the last moment.

Ember took out the Holy Bell of Youer Shika, and said calmly:

"The warm fire can provide continuous healing and guarantee that you will not die temporarily."

Mobate's heart sank, and he asked:
"What is temporary immortality?"

Ember asked back:
"How long have you lived in the book?"

Mobet suddenly fell silent, and he had obviously reacted.

Normally, although the Extraordinary of Sequence 5 has a longer lifespan than ordinary people, it is only a little.If it wasn't for the Extraordinary or extraordinary creatures of the blood race, living for 200 years is already the limit.

And he was stuck in that book in the Fourth Age, which was even during the Solomon Empire.But now it is the 1350th year of the Fifth Epoch, that is to say, he has lived for at least 1350 years!
In contrast, Grossel and Siatas lived longer.

They've been trapped in books since the Second Epoch, and they've lived for at least 3000 years!
Snowman is a little later, but also has been trapped in the books since the beginning of the Tertiary Age, and has been close to or even more than 3000 years.Even Lonzel, who was the latest among them to be included in "Grossel's Travels", has been trapped in the book for more than 100 years...

Under normal circumstances, they should have died long ago, and their corpses may have been turned into piles of loess.

"Is it just to guarantee that you will not die for the time being?"

Shatas murmured in a low voice, although she didn't know the path of this extraordinary ability, but any ability has a limit.When this extraordinary ability fails, they may usher in their own death...

"Mobate."

Shatas called softly, "I..."

"Stop talking!"

Mobet forcibly interrupted him, staring at the embers, and said in a deep voice:

"Can you save us? What will it cost?"

Ember had known all this for a long time, and knew that once they left the book world, they would die.

That's why he was able to prepare in advance and use that unknown extraordinary ability to temporarily save their lives.But the purpose of the other party entering the world of the book is to let Grossel serve as the tour guide for the other party to explore the giant royal court.

So the opponent must have a way to save them, at least the ability to save Grossel!
And since Grossel can be saved, saving them is just a matter of incident.

But the other party didn't do this, which only shows that they didn't pay enough!

Even the giant Grossel realized this, and hummed:
"Ash, they are our companions..."

Ember didn't deny it, and said frankly:
"This kind of thing is actually very simple. Any god can save you. You can try to pray to the gods you believe in."

Mobert asked back:

"Do you think the god we believe in is still alive?"

He believed in the Black Emperor Solomon, but Solomon had already died permanently with the passing of the Solomon Empire.

Shatas believed in Sunya Solem, the king of elves, and Groselle believed in Ormir, the king of giants. Both of these ancient gods had died at the hands of the ancient sun god, and even the ancient sun god himself had already died. It fell away thousands of years ago.

Ember was not surprised, and said neither fast nor slow:

"So, I can offer you three options."

"One is the goddess of the night, one is the god of knowledge and wisdom, and the other is 'The Fool'."

While Ember was talking, three notes appeared on the table.

The honorable names of the three gods are recorded on it in Giant Language, Elvish Language, and Ancient Hermes Language respectively.

Klein's eyes twitched instantly, he knew it!

"I'm going to the bathroom." Klein whispered, preparing to leave the room quietly.

"Let's go later."

Ember called out to stop him.

"it is good."

Klein raised his eyebrows, immediately understood, and nodded slightly.

Mobet took a deep look at Ember, the other party seemed to give three choices, but in fact he only gave one...

Mobet held Shatas's hand and said in a calm tone as much as possible:
"We choose 'The Fool'."

Although he is an 'ancient man', Longzel is not.

He knew that the Fourth Epoch believed in the Seven Gods, and six of the Seven Gods already existed in the Fourth Epoch.

But in that era, all living beings surrendered to the Black Emperor Solomon.

Even the gods, in order to fight against hostile forces, also recognize the rule of His Majesty the Emperor——

The dark night, the God of War, and the God of Death confront each other. The three gods of Storm, Lieyang, and Wisdom have great conflicts with each other. The attitude of the earth is ambiguous, but they are more inclined to the God of War. Alliance fights.

Of course, historically.

The six finally reached an agreement, so the Black Emperor fell, and the Tudor-Trensost United Empire was established...

So in a sense, the six gods are Mobate's enemies, including the goddess of the night and the god of knowledge and wisdom.

of course.

Mobet chose 'The Fool' not because of such superficial reasons.

Although theoretically Liushen is his enemy, Liushen may not know him at all, and he will not care about such a small role as him.

Mobet also recognized himself very clearly, and never had the idea of ​​seeking revenge from the Six Gods——

Even the Black Emperor and the Solomon Empire have been destroyed, so what's the use of revenge if he wants to?What kind of onion is he!
But even if these factors were put aside, Mobet didn't think that the Evernight Goddess or the God of Knowledge and Wisdom would respond to their prayers.

They may be the protagonists in the book world, but who are they in the real world?

How could the gods pay attention to them?

Ember brought up the Goddess of the Night or the God of Knowledge and Wisdom, which was obviously a cover, only the last 'fool' was what he really wanted to talk about.

They had no choice but to pray to the Fool from the very beginning.

"'The Fool'?"

Ember seemed a little surprised, he had thought that there were still two people who would choose the Evernight Goddess.

For example, the former Loen soldier Longzel, for him who once believed in the Lord of Storms, choosing the Evernight Goddess was not an unacceptable choice.

After all, the Evernight Goddess is also the orthodox belief of the Loen Kingdom, and the three major churches do not object to conversion.

Edwina looked as usual, not dissatisfied that no one chose the 'God of Knowledge and Wisdom'.

Mobet saw some resistance from other people, and said earnestly:

"Just praying, no forced conversion required."

This is their only chance to survive, but don't be fooled at this time!

Especially you, Shatas!

Mobate crazily hinted at the elf with his eyes, regardless of whether the other party could see clearly through the flame.

Ember cast her eyes on Snowman, and said:

"You can try to pray to Ouroreus. He now serves the real Creator, who is the incarnation of the residual power of the ancient Sun God, and his honorary name has been changed accordingly."

Edwina took the initiative to cooperate with Ember, and wrote down the honorable name of 'Angel of Destiny' on the paper.

For the ascetic, praying to other gods may have been a little difficult to accept.

And the ancient sun god he believed in has fallen, and it is unrealistic to pray to the ancient sun god.

But the angel under him is still alive.

If he really resists, he can also try to pray to that angel of fate.

After all, Zhenzao and him are now considered a cooperative relationship.

As for whether Snowman can accept the fact that Zhenzao is the ancient sun god, it has nothing to do with Ember.

The ascetic Snowman was silent for a while, and said in a low voice:

"Thank you."

Compared with other people who were still struggling, Snowman did not hesitate at all, and skillfully recited the honorable name of the Angel of Destiny:
"Heroic spirits who linger,

Favored of the true Creator,
Gazing into the eyes of fate..."

During the chanting of the honorable name, Snowman didn't even have time to say his prayers.

A figure suddenly appeared in the room.

It was a man in a simple and plain linen robe, tall and thin, with silver hair that reached to the vest.His facial features are gentle, his face is beautiful, and his silver eyes are gentle with a little indifference.

"Forgive my disrespect, Master Destiny Angel!"

Snowman fell to his knees all of a sudden, with an extremely devout gesture.

Because he recognized the man in front of him as the 'Angel of Destiny' serving the Lord!
For most people, when it comes to the King of the Eight Great Angels, their first reaction is the 'Angel of Imagination' Adam and the 'Angel of Time' Amon.

But for devout believers, they are very clear that among the eight kings of angels, the Lord trusts the 'Dark Angel' Saslier the most.He is the leader of the king of angels, the left hand of God, the vice prince of the kingdom of heaven, and the one who is closest to the Lord!

Besides, the Lord trusts most is the 'angel of destiny' Ouroreus.

Even if everyone betrays, these two will definitely serve the Lord!

So he was sure almost instantly that the real creator was the incarnation of the ancient sun god!
Ouroreus glanced across the people in the room indifferently, and didn't even stop at Snowman's body, but instead looked at Ember.

He seemed to hesitate for a moment, then suddenly nodded towards Ember.

In the next second, he and the pious Snowman disappeared at the same time.

Like it never happened.

"..."

Mobate's expression moved slightly, a little tangled.

The True Creator used to be an ally of the Black Emperor anyway. In theory, he can pray to Ouroreus now, right?After all, the true Creator was also the orthodox belief of the Solomon Empire, and he could accept it better than some 'fool'.

Just thinking of the action of Urolius nodding at Ember before leaving, he felt a little thumping in his heart.

The other party obviously has a lot to do with the real Creator, and even the King of Angels treats him with a straight-up attitude.If he changed his mind and prayed to Ouroreus or the real creator, the real creator would probably ignore his prayer in order not to offend the other party...

"I'll come first."

Grossel sighed.

Because of his height, he had to half squat on the ground and staggered forward, wanting to pick up the piece of paper with the name of 'The Fool' written on it.But when he was about to touch the paper, Grossel suddenly remembered that it was still in a state of 'igniting', he hesitated to withdraw his hand, and just looked at it with his head.

"The fool who does not belong to this age,
The mysterious ruler above the gray mist,
The Yellow and Black King of Good Luck..."

Grossel's expression was a little confused, he did not receive a response like Snowman's.

"I'll see a ghost if there is a response..."

Klein complained silently in his heart.

Layers upon layers of illusory prayers sounded in his mind. The question is, would he dare to answer the prayers?

Fortunately, he didn't need to take action, and he didn't feel that Ember needed the help of 'The Fool' to do such a trivial matter... After all, if it was something that even Ember couldn't handle, the 'Fool' would probably have to pull the trigger...

Chanting the name of 'The Fool' is just an excuse.

He just wasn't going to let Grossel and the others get 'salvation' unconditionally, they had to pay something to cherish it.

Suddenly, the flames on Grossel's body dissipated quietly, and the feeling of being healed instantly disappeared without a trace.

Grossel felt extremely weak, his body began to age at an unimaginable speed, his skin became wrinkled and shriveled in the blink of an eye, and his muscles atrophied rapidly, making it difficult for him to support his huge body. Kneeling on the ground.

But in the next second, a more majestic vitality emerged, quickly filling Grossel's body.

Let his body return to its peak state in a short period of time, and finally fix it.

Mobate asked in a low voice:
"how do you feel?"

Grossel scratched his head and said honestly:

"It feels good, and I think you should all try it."

"Shatas..."

Mobet breathed a sigh of relief, and immediately wanted to persuade the elves on the side again.

"I'm not as fragile as you think."

The elf, who was silent from beginning to end, glanced at him and said calmly.

"It's a good thing."

Mobet didn't care either, and shrugged with a smile.
