Chapter 29 Preparing to Slay the Dragon

Chapter 29 Preparing to Slay the Dragon
The atmosphere became stagnant.

The Witch of Death looked silently at the Silver Knight in front of her. She was the only being who could bestow upon the gods the concept of death.

This is no longer an enemy of God, but a natural enemy.

And this man actually said that while he liked her, he also liked the goddess of life. Is his mental state really... normal?

"Don't look at me like you are sick." Waving his hand, Ximu looked at the subtle expression of the Death Witch and explained:
"Death and life are a perfect opposition." He looked seriously and spoke nonsense seriously, "And the person who can truly represent the concept of death is not the goddess of death who controls hell, but you who control the power of death."

"The goddess of death controls reincarnation rather than death, and the death you give is the real end of everything."

"Death is not the end of the soul, but the end of a person. It is the end of life. Only then can it be called death in the true sense."

"Having your memory erased after death and being given a new life is not considered death." The unhurried voice revealed a firm sense of belief.

Ximu seemed to completely believe what he said, although from his own standpoint, it was undoubtedly a good thing that a person could have an afterlife.

However, he is a game player, so there is really no need to discuss any philosophical issues. He only needs to know how to deceive the power of the Death Witch.

After all, if he wanted to defeat the cursed dragon, without the power of the Death Witch, he would have no way to break the dragon's defenses.

"The source of your belief is your philosophy, not your position." Nodding slightly, the Death Witch accepted the man's statement.

Her sapphire eyes reflected the figure of the knight in front of her.

"Then what's the reason for your summoning?"

"A more profound death." Ximu answered without hesitation, and the Death Witch was not surprised. She maintained her usual cold and mysterious tone.

"Yes, but you need to sacrifice to me, ten souls who have sinned the most."

"No problem." Ximu readily agreed, looking at the witch of death who was about to leave as her body began to light up with blue will-o'-the-wisps, and said:

"Sacrificing your soul after death is too troublesome. How about I kill you and sacrifice it to you now?"

"Kill and sacrifice now?" The Death Witch stopped and was about to leave, her sapphire eyes showing a hint of confusion.

This was the first time she had encountered such a thing. In the past, humans who longed for power from her would start summoning rituals for her after killing them.

This is the first time I have encountered the sacrifice ceremony of killing.

"It won't take long before I kill ten heinous people in front of you." Ximu smiled.

"Don't you save time on the trip?"

That seems right.

The Witch of Death felt that what this human being said seemed to make sense, but it also felt a bit inconsistent, as if something was not quite right.

However, Ximu didn't give her time to think, and continued to explain: "Now let's go out and find ten souls who have committed the most evil crimes. This city is not only rich in money, but also has many souls full of evil. You can find ten people who have committed the most evil crimes just by walking around. soul."

He opened the window and waved to the Death Witch.

"It won't take long. It will be much easier than having to make another trip."

Witch of Death: "..."

Forget it, she also wanted to see what other surprising performances this human being with a strange brain circuit could perform.

Hidden, she chose to leave with Ximu.

……

...

at the same time.

In the dark venue.

A dozen nobles sat at the dining table, holding high red wine glasses filled with blood, chatting elegantly, and beside each of them, there was a beautiful girl.

Their faces were pale, obviously due to excessive blood loss, their hands and feet were bound by chains, and their empty eyes were full of despair.

They were imprisoned by vampires...no, more accurately, a group of nobles who longed to become vampires.

The girls are blood bags selected by the nobles so that they can eat at any time.

"After drinking the blood of virgin girls, I feel younger." A noble lady touched her face and took an elegant sip of the blood in the cup.

"Eternal life is getting closer and closer to me."

"Mrs. Sipero, you...are already more like a vampire than a vampire." A noble man raised his red wine glass and complimented her.

However, he did not see Sipelo smiling back. Instead, he saw Sipelo's frightened eyes, as if he saw some devil behind him.

Before he could turn around, he felt a chill on his neck, and then he saw a knight in silver rushing out, stepping on the wooden table and rushing towards Sipero, splitting Mrs. Sipero in half with a knife.

Then he felt that his vision was reversed and he fell towards the ground, obviously his body did not move.

Ah... He has been beheaded.

"Wait, don't kill me!" Begging for mercy in horror, the remaining nobleman kicked on the ground and leaned against the stone pillar of the hall, with tears and snot covering his face.

Ximu did not waver, and swung down the hunting king's sword with an expressionless expression. As blood spattered, the noble in front of him lost his life.

The city in the sky is very prosperous, but it also contains sinful karma like dark sludge, which makes people feel sick.

"There are more than ten evil souls." He turned around and looked at the Witch of Death sitting by the window.

The Death Witch looked at the scene, looking at the girls squatting in defense with their heads in their hands, and then turned her attention to Xi Mu.

"Human, did you already know that they were eating people?"

"Know a little bit about astrology." Ximu explained casually, and the Death Witch did not ask any questions. It didn't matter what secrets this man was hiding.

Anyway, it has nothing to do with her. The only thing worth caring about in this world is revenge against those gods.

"Come and receive protection." Her voice was calm, and then she saw Ximu take off his armor consciously, exposing his upper body.

Why does it feel like this man has received the blessing of death many times?

Ximu came to the Death Witch and allowed her to draw a rune on his chest, with her fingers tracing the skin with the last stroke.

The Witch of Death looked deeply at the strange human being in front of her, then turned into a blue will-o'-the-wisp and disappeared, taking with it the corpse of the dead noble.

The Death Power upgrade is completed.

Ximu touched the runes on his chest and put on the armor again. If he died before, it would only be able to weaken the recovery of other people's health bars and slightly reduce the upper limit of the health bar.

Now, with one strike, he can significantly cut off the upper limit of the enemy's health bar. If he continues to upgrade the power of death, he can also significantly weaken the enemy's defense and have the effect of breaking through the defense with a knife. If he continues to upgrade.

Then he can forcefully give the concept of death to a life that originally had no concept of death.

However, since upgrading the power of death requires raising the favorability of the Death Witch to a certain level, it is difficult to raise the favorability of the Death Witch.

It is unlikely to be filled up in a short time.

"You will be free next." Ximu turned his head and looked at the frightened girls and explained, "You can choose to go to court to complain, or you can choose to run away."

His voice suddenly turned cold.

"But whether the court will trust your words, and whether the guys behind you will find a way to deal with you, is another matter." After that, he climbed out of the window and left the hall, disappearing into the night.

The surviving girls looked at each other, discussed a few words with each other, and quickly reached a consensus to hide their whereabouts first, and then find a way to escape from the Sky City.

As for revenge, they dare not think about it. No one will help them at all, neither the guards nor the court will stand on their side.

The only result of fighting is to die faster.

Not to mention that they are not residents of Sky City, they are just a group of people who sneaked into Sky City.

The law will not protect them.

……

……

Shortly after.

Ximu walked alone in the park. He sat on a bench, as if waiting for someone.

Now all his actions revolve around defeating the dragon, whether it is to obtain further protection from the Witch of Death.

Or wait for the upcoming npc.

After all, if he wanted to defeat the giant dragon at his current level, he would not even be able to break through the defense. Although the dragon had been cursed and eroded into confusion and was weak to a certain extent, he still could not do it at his level. Break defense.

Therefore, we must do everything possible to weaken the cursed defense and find a way to create conditions in which we can kill the dragon. "Human, you smell like a witch." A cold male voice came from the shadows. An invisible sense of terror seemed to distort the park. The hazy moonlight turned pale, and the surrounding trees twisted, and human beings grew. On his face, the branches turned into dry arms, reaching out to Ximu sitting on the bench.

The creeping horror feels... suffocating.

"After all, I am a person favored by the Death Witch." Ximu responded calmly, not shying away from the fact that he had received the protection of the Death Witch.

After saying these words, the huge feeling of terror disappeared, the surrounding environment returned to normal, and a man wearing a coat walked out of the shadows.

Holding a cigarette in his mouth, he came to sit next to Ximu, raised his hand and took off the hat he was wearing, revealing the face of a weathered middle-aged uncle.

"Siegfried's apprentice, a genius who extracted magic power in just one day, and a believer of the goddess of life." The man chuckled.

"Why would someone like you become a follower of the witch?"

"Is there any contradiction here?" Ximu asked, "One of them is a witch and the other is a god, but they are also very charming ladies, right?"

He... made sense.

The man suddenly didn't know how to refute. Although he was also a believer in the witch, he couldn't tell lies. He still had the ability to appreciate beauty.

And the Witch of Death and the Goddess of Life are undoubtedly beauties.

"Is it because you believe in the goddess of life that you still believe in the witch?" He covered his forehead and looked at the moon in the sky.

"I thought I was abnormal enough before, but now I feel like a normal person."

"If you just want to discuss with me what it means to be a normal person," Ximu responded calmly, "then maybe I should leave."

"What you said is too outrageous." The man couldn't help but complain. This guy beside him could not only believe in gods, but also believe in witches.

There is no so-called position at all.

However, Ximu completely scorned the man's words. Which gamer can't like the villains and decent characters in the game at the same time.

If it weren't for the fact that the Mysterious Door is not a love game, then he would have liked to attack the goddess and the witch at the same time.

How could you not like the witch just because you like the goddess?

"Forget it, it's not normal for me to be entangled in this issue." Shaking his head, the man asked Ximu, "Master Witch, did you say something to you?"

"There is a plan that requires your cooperation." Ximu's tone calmed down. He followed the example of the Death Witch and folded his hands and fingers on his chest.

"But only if I become a hero."

"In other words, you want us to cooperate with you?" The man's eyes were suspicious, and Ximu raised his finger to his chest.

"If you need convincing, you can personally feel the runes that the witch personally wrote for me."

The man was silent for a moment and asked, "What do you want us to do for you?"

"Help me aggravate the curse of a giant dragon." Ximu replied, "I need to become a dragon-slaying hero."

"Is it just to weaken the dragon?" The man frowned, then Ximu smiled mysteriously and explained to him.

"This is just the beginning, the Witch will have further arrangements." Ximu's eyes were dark and he was talking nonsense seriously.

"The follow-up still requires you to spread the idea that hell does not exist all over the world."

"Promote the idea that hell does not exist?" The man was stunned, not understanding what Ximu said. After all, the existence of hell is a well-known thing.

In this regard, Ximu explained:

"Whether hell exists or not, who of you has seen it with your own eyes? It might be a lie. As long as this concept exists, it will definitely cause panic."

“In order to prove myself, God will definitely take action.”

The man understood: "At that time we will have the opportunity to sneak into hell and unlock the seal of the witch!"

"Yes, that's it." Ximu nodded. The currently active Death Witch is not her true body, but just an incarnation.

The main body is still locked in hell and cannot move.

The followers of the Death Witch have been trying to save the Death Witch for so many years.

"I'm beginning to believe that you are indeed favored by the witch." The man took a long breath of smoke, "We will help you weaken the dragon."

"Okay." Ximu nodded calmly and walked out of the park. Then he heard the man behind him asking him.

"Witch-sama, did you talk about us?"

"Otherwise, why would I contact you?" Ximu replied and continued walking out of the park.

In fact, the Death Witch didn't even know that she still had followers alive, more than 10,000 years had passed.

After such a long period of time, the Death Witch has already assumed that all believers are dead and has no intention of re-establishing faith in her.

But this does not prevent him from using the power of these followers of the Death Witch.

The next day.

The sky is dimly bright.

"...are you serious about going to conquer the dragon now?" Siegfried asked, touching his chin and looking at the knight in silver in front of him.

"I'm not saying I look down on you, but do you really understand how powerful the dragon is?"

"Understood." Ximu replied calmly, "So, I have no intention of fighting the dragon head-on like you."

"Then what are you going to do?" Siegfried asked, and saw Ximu turning around and looking at Leticia, Geed, and Aslaki behind him.

"Poison, curse, recruit magicians to use long-range magic to consume the dragon's physical strength, and wait until the dragon is dying before taking action."

Siegfried was silent for a moment: "Can this... still be considered a dragon-slaying hero?"

"You just said that the dragon will die?" Ximu asked, and Siegfried was silent for a while before asking.

"If I become a dragon in the future, you won't use this method to target me, right?"

"No, I will kill you with my own hands." Ximu replied decisively. If he could kill the boss with his own hands, he would never let anyone help him in the battle. Otherwise, if he was killed by the helper, he would have to lose a lot. experience value.

Siegfried was silent for a long time, then turned his eyes to his daughter Aslach and asked:

"Why do you want to follow?"

"Slaying dragons is such an interesting thing, I also want to try it." Aslaqi explained. She was found by Ximu last night and asked if she wanted to slay the dragon like her father.

Of course she felt her heart flutter, and since the unlucky dragon was cursed and dying, all she had to do was spend some money to recruit an army, wait until the dragon was weak enough, and then chop a few times to gain a sense of participation.

When it is publicized afterwards, she will be considered a dragon-slaying hero.

"Forget it, you go ahead." After waving his hand, Siegfried felt a little helpless, but also a little relieved. It seems that the apprentice he chose is quite despicable, and he is not an overly righteous knight, so that in the future he can also Don't worry and leave the country to Akhtar's protection.

People with too much integrity...cannot survive in this world.

……

...

The next day.

The unnamed forest.

Ximu stood on a hillside, looking at the huge canyon in the center of the forest, and could occasionally hear the dragon roaring in pain.

It is true that the giant dragon is in a weak state, but it should still have the ability to attack. Just one wave can kill him.

The difference in attribute levels between the two sides is too huge.

"We will start poisoning at night." He turned around and explained to Geed, Leticia, and Aslaki.

"First use imperceptible toxins to weaken the dragon, and then slowly increase the amount. At the same time, arrange for manpower to curse the dragon at the back."

Having said this, he looked at the rich woman Aslaki and spoke.

"Leave it to Aslaqi to recruit mercenaries. The reputation for slaying the dragon afterwards will all belong to you alone."

Aslaqi asked curiously: "Don't you want to be a dragon-slaying hero?"

"I don't want to," Ximu replied immediately, "The purpose of attacking the dragon this time is mainly to deepen our familiarity with the dragon. Reputation is not important at all."

After all, he only wants the experience points of slaying dragons, and the reputation thing can only earn a dragon slaying achievement, which is completely meaningless to him.

Sooner or later it will come out.
