Samsara Paradise: Shadow King

Chapter 49 Dishonest Hands

Miles took two steps forward, placed the box containing the [Dreamland] ore in his hand on the grass, and then returned to its original position.

Zhao Zijin summoned Siwa, and she stepped forward to take the box back.

[Tip: The hunter has obtained the special ore "Dreamland" (15KG). 】

"Char. How are Charles and the others?"

William couldn't help asking questions, but he was afraid of getting an answer that would hurt his daughter.

Zhao Zijin had enough time to observe the colorful crystal ore flowing in the box, without raising his head, and told the truth:

"She's very good, very good, couldn't be better!"

Kain raised his hand to stop William from continuing to question, and said in a cold tone:

"You've got what you want, it's time to let the kids go!"

"You have to make sure I can leave safely before discussing this issue! And"

"boom!"

The roof of the orphanage was completely lifted, and two figures hurriedly escaped from inside.

"Your hands seem a little dishonest!"

Back to a few minutes ago, in order to protect the safety of Ciel and other children, two pseudo-god soldiers sneaked into the orphanage first.

They are the pseudo-god warrior "Arachne" Elisabeth Vesa and the pseudo-god warrior "Dopeluganga" Robert Alberu.

The prototype of the former mythical creature comes from the spider succubus Arachnid in Roman mythology. She was originally an ordinary woman in the world. She had a pair of skillful hands that were extremely good at weaving and embroidery. Whenever she worked, even Lin Zhonghe... The goddesses in the fountain couldn't help coming to watch.

Her otherworldly skills gave rise to her arrogance, and even the goddess Minerva was not taken seriously by her, and she tried to challenge the goddess's weaving skills with a mortal body. The goddess accepted her challenge, but she did not expect that the audacious Arachne would dare to insult the gods by weaving the ugliness of the gods on the fabric. Minerva was furious and rebuked and punished this woman for being disrespectful to the gods.

Arachne thought she had been humiliated and hanged herself. Minerva saw her hanging miserably on the rope, felt compassion for her, and reincarnated her into a spider banshee, with her upper body still retaining her enchanting figure. He is in human form, but his lower body is a ferocious and evil spider. He spends his days weaving gossamer.

The latter comes from Germanic mythology. "Doppelganger" is the transliteration of Chinese. The original name is the German word "Doppelganger". In the German dictionary, it means "another self" and can also be called "double body". Originally it refers to a kind of ghost in German folklore. Due to the age and the ideological control of the church, its specific origin cannot be determined.

Because the word itself means "another self", it later became a term for a psychological phenomenon, which refers to the phenomenon of seeing oneself in real life, that is, the phenomenon of autophagia.

More specifically, it means that people can see another invisible self hidden in their own hearts. It is somewhat similar to the concept of multiple personality, but it is just similar. Strictly speaking, the two are not the same situation.

The concept of doppelgänger has been used in many works of art and adapted, turning the doppelgänger into a specific monster. However, whether it is in film and television works or in psychological terms, it is explained that—— Although the doppelgänger and the main body are one, they are completely different existences. They are individuals with independent personalities.

At this moment, the two of them have sneaked into the interior of the orphanage, and they are ready to take action at the critical moment to rescue Xia Er and other children from Zhao Zijin's control.

Several spider threads hang down from unnoticeable corners. When the time comes, they can quickly tie up Ciel and other children and pull them away.

There was not much room for hiding upstairs. Robert plucked the silk thread next to him and complained:

"If I also transform, I'm afraid there really won't be enough room for the two of us here, right?"

"Didn't you check with Irene about the changes that happened to you? Maybe she will have a solution."

Robert's eyes flashed with darkness, and he rejected Elizabeth's proposal with a fake smile:

"It didn't cause any harm to my body anyway, right? Irene is already busy enough, so I won't cause any trouble for her!"

Elizabeth shook her head, seemingly confused by her companion's desire to hide his illness.

"Put it aside for now! The target is up, and we are ready. We need to act quickly and don't give the other party time to react!"

Elizabeth rolled her eyes at him and lowered her voice again and said:

"Take care of yourself, you don't need to order me around!" As she spoke, in a dark place that she didn't notice, the transparent tip of the knife was about to penetrate her heart.

"Pfft!"

Elizabeth finally reacted at the critical moment. The assassin's sword only pierced her shoulder. For a pseudo-god warrior like her, this kind of injury was still within the bearable range.

Crow Feather, whose shadow body showed some traces of lizard transformation, appeared in front of the two of them. The sword in his hand was slashed at the head, and Elizabeth crossed her spider legs to block it.

"Edgar?"

Robert exclaimed, and the next second, a kunai suddenly appeared, cutting off a large piece of flesh on his left arm.

Five shadows came out of the shadows, their blades flying, cutting off all the spider threads falling towards Ciel and the children.

They thought they were well hidden, and in fact they did hide it from the eyes of these ninjas, but they couldn't help but that the offender radar provided by the park kept giving Zhao Zijin feedback on their real-time location!

It’s hard to find them!

Die and Crow Feather launched a fierce attack, taking advantage of the sneak attack. The two pseudo-god soldiers were instantly at a disadvantage.

The spider on Elizabeth's lower body spewed out a web, and Crow Feather stepped forward and cut it apart with three or two knives, without giving them a chance to breathe, and continued to attack. The blade collided with the spider's legs, making a clear "ding-ding-ding-ding" sound.

"Elizabeth! Retreat first!"

The injury on Robert's left arm was gone, and the deformed and swollen muscles were bulging on it. He clenched his fist and smashed the roof above, and jumped out of it.

The two people who came out of the orphanage were immediately supported by their companions. Miles drew his long bow and fired several arrows in a row, which was fast and deadly. Die and Crow Feather who were chasing after them were forced to dodge and block, and missed two arrows. opportunity for people to stay.

Zhao Zijin raised his shotgun and released all the shadow soldiers. Tone turned into a rhinoceros giant, Siwa got into a fighting stance, St. Paul and St. George guarded their master on the left and right, and Black Rope and Yuan Zhen stood up. He raised his spear and stared eagerly, Sai Yao hovered in the air, waiting for an opportunity to control the field with [Sound of Sleep].

Miles transformed into the form of a mythical creature, switching to the posture of a centaur, replacing the bow and arrow with a lance, and stepping on four hooves, ready to charge at any time.

A pair of dragon wings opened the white coat, and William roared into the air, turning into a majestic and domineering dragon.

The scene became tense in an instant!

"Hey, hey, hey! Don't have such a big reaction! It was obviously you who made the little move first! Does this look like you want to start a war?"

Kaiin stared coldly at Zhao Zijin who was standing at the door of the orphanage, and said in a deep voice:

"Let the kids go! We'll get you out safely!"

"Do you believe this? Stop talking nonsense, that dragon, and you! That's right, it's you! I only allow you two to follow, the others stay here, I will retreat with Ciel and the others Keep a safe distance, and release one person every once in a while during the process. Do you agree? I can tell you that I have planted explosives in the entire orphanage. If I take action, I cannot guarantee their safety."

Zhao Zijin reached out and pointed at William and Robert, threateningly.

He didn't plant the explosives, he was betting that the pseudo-soldiers wouldn't dare take risks.

He won the bet!

"Despicable bastard!"

Kaiin gritted his teeth and complied with Zhao Zijin's request with a livid face:

"I hope you can keep your word! Get away! Just pray that we won't catch up!"

"Don't worry, one code, one code! Charles and the children will come back safely! I promise!"

Zhao Zijin put down the shotgun in his hand and saluted them decently. The smile on his face made people want to tear it apart.
