After get off work, start speeding through another world

Chapter 20 You offered an excessive reward
The church was silent, and the sunlight passed through the stained glass, reflecting on a knight in silver and a praying nun.

"Your Excellency Akhtar, do you want to become a servant of God?" The nun suddenly asked. Her gentle voice was like a flowing spring, making people feel that their souls were being washed.

"You also believe in the goddess, right?"

"..." Ximu glanced at the statue of the goddess of life, and then withdrew his gaze. He shook his head. He was not interested in believing in an NPC, although many players like to call the goddess of life mother and want to indulge in the full heart of the goddess of life. , and that maternal nature that is so strong that it seems to be able to tolerate everything.

But he didn't have much interest in it. At first, he was really interested in the goddess of life because of her excellent modeling. But later, in order to complete the ending of the "Ashes" line, he killed the goddess of life with his own hands. Lots of fluctuations.

Although he didn't want to go to the ashes ending at the beginning, but if he didn't clear out all the game's clearance routes and took the routes that didn't meet the full ending, he felt... there was a knot in his heart that kept scratching in his heart.

Then, he took the ashes route, wiping out all life, civilization, and cities in front of him, and burning the entire world with a fire.

I feel comfortable and my whole body feels transparent.

"Is it because of that princess?" The nun stood up gracefully, looked at the knight behind her, clasped her hands in a praying posture.

"I hope you can successfully help Her Royal Highness regain the throne, so that you may be able to return to the embrace of the goddess with peace of mind."

"Maybe." Ximu replied in a deep voice. He had no interest in following the goddess of life. There is also an ending to this game, which is to become the companion of the god.

Of course, this partner is not limited to men and women. As long as the intimacy between the two parties reaches a certain level, the player can share authority with the god and become the agent of the god's will.

What players who take this route need to do is to help their god companions ascend to the throne and become the new master of the gods.

Players will also share the world with their divine companions.

But from his point of view, since he can conquer the world by himself, why should he share power with others, unless he really likes a certain god. For this reason, he will take the route of accompanying the god and forming a contract between gods and humans.

"In that case, do you need to learn some new prayers?" the nun asked with a smile, looking at the surprised look in the silver knight's eyes.

"It would be more helpful to you if you could learn to pray more."

"Please." Ximu nodded, and his attitude was not as alienated as before. Originally, he didn't think much of the nun.

However, I don’t know if it was due to game optimization or if he triggered some special conditions, but the NPC in the game actually volunteered to teach him to pray.

An unexpected surprise, yes.

The nun smiled upon seeing this, and patiently guided this genius to pray. She knew something about Akhtar, a man who could develop magic power in one day, and easily learned to pray to the goddess of life.

Such people deserve her special guidance.

As expected, Akhtar was as amazing as she expected. As long as she taught him once, he could use it skillfully immediately, as if he had learned it before.

So talented that it reminds me of the former... Witch of Time.

I hope he won't go down the wrong path and harbor ill intentions towards the gods like the Witch of Time, intending to assassinate them.

[Introduction to Life Nest]

Ximu glanced at the new skill that appeared in his field of vision. This was a way to strengthen himself through prayer and give himself temporary different life characteristics.

In theory, in the later stage, you can give yourself the breath ability of a dragon, the terrifying power of a giant, or the ability of a murloc to survive underwater.

However, you have to maximize your level and skill proficiency. Otherwise, you can strengthen yourself slightly and gain basic enhancements such as the strength of a bear, the vision of an eagle, and the speed of a cheetah.

The strengthening effect is not as direct as that of magic potion.

And at this time.

"Your Excellency Akhtar, I have recovered." The pleasant voice, accompanied by the oncoming footsteps, made Xi Mu subconsciously look along the direction of the sound.

Leticia was wearing leather armor and had a thin sword hanging from her waist. She ran towards him in a hurry, with a smile on her delicate and pretty face:

"Sorry to keep you waiting."

"It's okay." Ximu shook his head and said as if he was joking, "I don't need to go behind your back this time."

"Don't think of me as a fragile princess." Leticia's smile was bright, and her emerald green eyes revealed confidence and awe. Her recovery of mobility not only meant that she gained more initiative, but also represented that Akhtar You don't have to sacrifice your body for her.

In response, Ximu smiled, turned to look at the nun beside him and thanked him: "I hope you will have a good life in the future."

"I hope you and the princess can be happy forever." The nun smiled softly and watched the silver knight leading the princess out of the church.

She has begun to look forward to the happy news that Akhtar will help the princess regain the country, and then the knight and the princess will live happily together.

at the same time.

Duel field.

Hiyer yawned slightly, looking at the fierce fighting in the duel field, feeling lack of interest. After seeing Akhtar fighting, he felt that today's battle was particularly boring.

"Is it that boring?" A chuckle suddenly came from beside him, as if it was a greeting from a friend, revealing a hint of kindness.

However, Hiyer's expression froze. She felt someone holding her shoulders, and the woman beside her said something.

"I've been looking for you for a long time. If it weren't for the hood you gave us, we would have had to wait until you came to the temple before we had a chance to take action."

"Who are you?" Hiyer did not turn his head and looked at the woman beside him, his expression very calm.

As a god, she has no concept of death and does not have to worry about being killed.

"Chronos." The woman beside him replied, and then the time of the whole world seemed to stop.

Hiyer turned his head and looked at the black-haired woman wearing a witch's robe beside him. His pupils subconsciously tightened. This woman was obviously dead.

Kronos smiled charmingly, slid his hand on Hiyer's shoulder, and gently pinched Hiyer's chin, his black pupils reflected an indifferent luster.

"You are the first god to die." As he finished speaking, a black short knife pierced the audience and penetrated Hiyer's heart.

Blood dyes clothes red.

Hiyer vomited a mouthful of blood, turned around suddenly, and saw a woman with blue wavy hair. She drew out the black dagger she used to stab her, and then stabbed her neck hard, blocking her desire. the sound made.

Why...the Witch of Death appears here? Isn't she forever sealed in the gap between life and death?

No one gave her an answer.

"..." The Death Witch drew out the black short knife, flipped the blade, and stabbed Hier on the forehead, completely cutting off the life of the Plague Goddess.

God has no concept of death.

However, this does not mean that it cannot be killed. As long as someone gives the concept of death to the god, the god can be killed.

And she is the one who can give the gods the concept of death.

"That guy is coming." Chronos stood up with a chuckle, took off the witch hat he was wearing, and covered the face of Hiyer who was still staring at death. "Leave it to me to handle the rest."

"Yes." The Death Witch nodded slightly, took a step back, and her body turned into a blue will-o'-the-wisp and disappeared.

And she held the black short knife and fell down out of thin air.

"Pa~" Kronos took the fallen dagger, and time resumed its flow. The blood of the Plague Goddess who fell in the audience of the duel turned into... a curse, which began to spread, and the moon in the sky instantly turned blood red. .

The blood is flowing, and the curse of deathly resentment is spreading.

"Ahhhh!!!" screams suddenly resounded throughout the duel field, and all the spectators present were seen bleeding from their orifices, blood vessels bursting directly, splashing out a large amount of blood, and everyone in the entire duel field died in an instant.

And this curse is still spreading towards the entire Lion Heart City at a speed visible to the naked eye. Anyone who comes into contact with the breath of the curse will immediately be unable to help but vomit blood.

Only some strong people can resist this unintentional curse before death, unlike most people who will die as soon as they are exposed to it.

Even if you don't die, you will still be entangled with the disease.

"What on earth is this?" Leticia's eyes were a little confused, but she quickly regained her composure and observed the streets littered with corpses.

Although she didn't understand why everyone seemed to have bombs detonated in their bodies in an instant, she understood one thing deeply.

"Let's leave here immediately!" She pulled the knight Akhtar beside her and quickly fled outside the Lionheart King's city.

As they fled all the way, the scenery they saw was shocking. The suddenly exploded corpses stained the walls and floors red, and the painful wails and cries of some people who were lucky enough to survive were even more horrifying.

Something is wrong, this is so wrong.

Leticia bit her lower lip, raised her head and observed the sky and the miserable state of the dead bodies, and then turned her gaze in the direction of the duel.

The source of the crisis lies in the duel arena.

"Don't think too much, what we have to do is leave." Ximu held onto Leticia's delicate hand and pulled her to run out of the city.

The easiest way to resist the curse after the death of a god is to possess magic power, or possess alchemical tools to resist abnormal conditions.

And he happens to have a tool to resist the curse. The crow hood given to him by the God of Plague himself can effectively resist the curse, especially the curse of the God of Plague.

Otherwise, when the Plague Goddess dies, he and Leticia will be shocked for a split second, and they will fall into coma even if they don't vomit blood.

Leticia nodded. She had no intention of exploring why there were mass deaths. She was very self-aware of her abilities.

As the two escaped, more and more survivors came into view, all fleeing outside Lionheart King's city.

They didn't understand the current situation, but they had no intention of investigating.

……

...

The next day.

On the hills far away from Lionheart City.

"There shouldn't be a curse spreading here, right?" Leticia was panting with her hands on her knees, her short blond hair sticking to her face due to sweat.

She and Ximu ran around all night, and they were still thinking about whether to find a horse to represent them. As a result, they found that except for a few people who survived, basically no living animals could be found.

They had no choice but to run on their feet.

"This touches on my knowledge blind spot." Ximu shook his head and glanced in the direction of Lionheart City. Of course, he knew that he would not be affected by the curse if he escaped here.

However, he could not explain why he knew the scope of the curse's spread.

"We have to stay away anyway." Leticia raised her hand to push away the golden hair stuck to her face, and then showed a somewhat twitchy look.

She was worried and asked Ximu cautiously.

"Sir Akhtar, where do you plan to go next?"

"I want to go to the Sky City." Ximu expressed his thoughts, and Leticia's expression darkened after hearing this.

Now that she has healed her hands and feet, it is reasonable for Akhtar to part ways with her. The other party is not her knight, and there is no problem in leaving now.

She had already been mentally prepared for this.

"I still need to go to see the gods." Leticia expressed her thoughts. She also needed to see the gods to establish her legitimacy as the heir to the Kingdom of Iris.

Hearing this, Ximu nodded as if he understood: "I'm going to apprentice with Siegfried. With the help of this dragon-slaying hero, it should be very helpful for you to take back the country."

He watched Leticia's expression change from disappointment to surprise.

"Siegfried intended to teach me everything he knew."

"If that's the case, can you wait until I meet the gods and then go to the Castle in the Sky to visit Siegfried?" Leticia suggested softly. At this time, she lost her awe and confidence, as if she was an unconfident little girl. .

Theoretically speaking, it is undoubtedly the most efficient option for her and Akhtar to act separately now.

But she doesn't really want to be separated from Akhtar.

"Okay." Ximu readily agreed, looking at the town in the distance, "Let's find a place to rest first."

"Okay." Nodding slightly, Leticia and Ximu walked towards the distant town together, one after the other, walking through the jungle paths.

Leticia looked at the knight leading the way in front of her and asked a little nervously: "By the way, Sir Akhtar, how can I repay you?"

Commit yourself to each other.

Of course, you can't say that. With the virgin character of the Mystery Gate Game Official, there is no hope of getting Leticia's body as compensation.

Even if you get married, you can only get the status in the marriage contract. Even if you are exposed, you will be blocked by the holy light, which is the extent of holding hands and hugging.

Even more extreme, such as kissing, it is impossible to do it.

"Sorry, I don't seem to want to get anything." Ximu lied without changing his expression and walked forward steadily.

"Just treat it as a risky commission, and just give me tens of thousands of gold coins afterwards."

Leticia: "..."

At this time, you don't have to abide by the chivalry so much. You can ask for something a little more excessive, and she may not refuse.
