I, with a long knife in my hand, can only do one move

After that, Stephen turned over a few pages of paper in his hand and continued: "Zab, Jeter, you two need to check the situation on Glasterling Street today. Some people say that something strange happened recently. matter."

"What's strange?" Jeter closed the book in his hand and looked up.

Stephen pulled out a photo that was clipped on the information board, and said, "Some witnesses said that this thing appeared over there."

"What is this?" Cheng Rang moved closer, and the photo showed a strange hourglass-shaped thing, with a blue and a red liquid filled on both sides of the hourglass, and a twisted metal wire wrapped it inside.

"The Scranton Reality Reversal Device is a mysterious item that only existed in legends." Stephen said, "It is an extremely dangerous item. If it falls into the hands of people with bad intentions, the destruction of the world may only be in the process of changing hands."

"Just let them do something so serious?" Cheng Rang asked.

Stephen threw the photo to Zarbu, "Just to check the situation and collect surrounding information, because there is only one side of the story from witnesses, so we can't completely determine whether it really exists."

"Then where did this photo come from?" Zhabu grabbed the photo and looked left and right, but he didn't see why.

"The literati at the Warlock Association grabbed it from the minds of witnesses." Stephen replied, "It doesn't matter if you have actually seen it or imagined it, but it is no small matter anyway, and I will leave it to you gone."

Chapter 1: Praying for the Death of Leticia

"Okay, half murloc, let's go." Zhabu got up with the photo and greeted Jeter who was beside him. The two stepped into any elevator one after another. With the sound of machinery running, they had already left here.

Cheng Rang was not in a hurry when he saw Stephen mentioned his nomination task and then started to talk about other things. Fantou probably wanted to wait for the others to leave before discussing this special task with himself alone.

Gilbert also silently walked to another room after serving a cup of black tea for Klaus. At present, only Klaus, Stephen, Leo and Cheng Rang were left in the hall.

"Klaus." Stephen closed the information board, turned back and whispered to Klaus: "Doug's application to go out was approved today, you can accompany the warden for a while."

"I know." Klaus nodded, packed up and left here, and took a car to the super-abnormal criminal restraint and protection facility.

After watching Klaus leave, Leo was afraid to make a sound when he saw the atmosphere in the hall gradually becoming empty and quiet.

"Leo." Stephen called his name.

"Yes!"

Stephen smiled and said, "Don't be so nervous, you don't have any tasks today, if you have to say...you haven't written to your sister for a long time, right?"

"Eh? Ah... yes..." Leo nodded.

Fantou Stephen has noticed Leo who has been in a daze with a pen in front of the letter paper more than once in the hall, so today he assigned the task like this, "Try to relax the family members who are worried about you today, send a letter Go back, it's a pity to miss the Halloween holiday, isn't it?"

Leo froze for a moment, then touched the back of his head embarrassedly and bowed to Stephen, "I see, thank you, Mr. Stephen."

"It's okay, let's go." Stephen smiled and waved to Leo.

After Leo also left, the gentle smile on Stephen's face gradually disappeared.

"Ah, Fan Tou can change his face so quickly. No wonder Sister KK always doesn't like to go on missions with you." Cheng Rang appropriately adjusted the somewhat solemn air, making Stephen smile bitterly again.

"So what's the content of the mission? As for the leader, you send everyone else away?" Cheng Rang folded his arms and sat back on the sofa.

"I didn't intend to send everyone away, it's just that I need to take you personally for this task." Stephen put the information board aside and didn't look at it again.

"Why is it so troublesome, just tell me who you want to kill?"

Stephen didn't reply, but walked towards any elevator, motioning for Cheng Rang to follow.

......

The black car was traveling at high speed on the highway, heading toward the center of HL.

It wasn't until no other vehicles were seen on the surrounding roads that Stephen in the car spoke to Cheng Rang, who was sitting in the co-pilot: "The reason why this mission is special is that the mission issuer is the same as the mission goal. people."

"Oh?"

"Undead, have you understood?" Stephen asked, staring at the road ahead.

Cheng Rang shook his head, "I don't know much, is it like Mr. Gilbert?"

"No." Stephen denied, "Gilbert's ability only recovers quickly, and it will only take effect when he is on the verge of death."

"Like the family members of the blood world?" Cheng Rang asked again.

"Those guys are just amazing at recovering." Stephen stopped being tricky and began to explain, "The undead are guys who have lost the concept of 'death'. They will be injured and feel pain, but the speed of wound healing Just like normal people, there is no way to speed up recovery, just maintaining the definition of immortality, even putting aside the point of not dying, there is basically no difference from normal people.”

"Oh, the guy who posted the mission is tired of his job, and wants to find someone to kill himself?" Cheng Rang concluded.

Stephen said: "Although you are right in summing it up like this... But how can I put it, she is now considered to be a dangerous existence, and the situation is far more complicated than you imagined."

"Her?" Cheng Rang noticed Stephen's words, "Woman?"

"For that kind of existence, gender doesn't mean anything. Don't tell me you can't do anything to women?" Stephen asked.

"No, she's not a human being, and it's not like I haven't killed a human being before."

"That's good."

After that, the two fell silent until three hours later, Stephen stopped the car in front of a magnificent villa.

"We have arrived."

"This place, I remember that guy Don Alur also lives nearby?" Cheng Rang looked around at the strange landscape hidden under the thick fog, the world seemed to be upside down in the mirror in the sky above his head, Full of whimsical atmosphere.

"It looks similar, but the distance is a thousand miles away. If we hadn't made an appointment with her this time, I'm afraid people like us would never be able to come to this place in our lifetime." Stephen walked towards the villa, "Although I met you this time The status of her is not low, but she is different from the etiquette in our world, so it's better not to greet her indiscriminately."

"I understand." Cheng Rang nodded and followed Stephen's pace.

In the center of the platinum hall, which is as big as a football field, is a wide road paved with blue carpet. On both sides of the road are hundreds of transparent crystal pillars carved with exquisite patterns extending upwards infinitely.

At the end is a huge golden throne that is extremely luxurious.

On the throne, sat an elegant figure. The style of her clothing looked like a long skirt, all in all, it was glittering with gold, elegant and luxurious.

"Queen Leticia, the giver of the dead has come." (Other world language)

A waiter stepped into the main entrance of the hall, took only one step, crossed the tens of meters long blue carpet paved road, and came to the figure on the throne.

"Ask them to come in." (Foreign Language)

"Yes." (Foreign Language)

Stephen and Cheng Rang were waiting in front of the two red gilt carved gates.

"Leticia de Gesse Brissac, the ruler of the royal family in another world, the queen of the millennium, the founder of the Brissac spell school, and the undead." Stephen introduced the two of them to Cheng Rang. The person I met is also the person who announced the nomination task.

"No one knows how long she has lived. They only know that she has been in charge of the different world she lives in for thousands of years. She is a peerless genius with strong luck and curse. Because everything she pursues is within easy reach, she is bored with the living world. I want to follow the footsteps of death to find the truth of the end. But as an undead, I can’t touch the realm of death by all means, so I am full of longing for the only thing I can’t get.”

"It's nice to say, isn't it that you're tired of living and want to die and go crazy?" Cheng Rang curled his lips and disapproved of what Stephen said.

Stephen's tone paused, then he shook his head and smiled bitterly: "Okay, if you still think so after I have said so much, then that's right."

"I said, if I really kill her, will the people in her other world come and chase me down?" Cheng Rang asked.

"Two guests, please come in." The waiter who just went in to inform has come out again and invited the two of them.

"Sa, who knows, why don't you ask her yourself." Stephen turned his head and looked at Cheng Rang, and walked into the red gilt door that opened slowly in front of him.

"If you can do it..."

Chapter 1: Giving to the Dead

Cheng Rang and Stephen followed the waiters ahead through the long road to the throne.

"welcome."

Under Cheng Rang's curious gaze, Qianying on the throne stood up and raised her arms across her chest in a strange manner.

She was wearing a silver mask without any patterns or openings, like half a balloon, tightly covering her entire face, making it impossible to see what she looked like.

Her voice is quite pleasant, dignified and majestic, and the confidence and arrogance in it make people know that she has been in a high position for a long time, and it is completely natural with her own temperament, so that people don't feel abrupt.

Cheng Rang's first impression of her was not bad, at least she made people feel very comfortable, unlike the crazy chess player he had seen before, which gave people an involuntary sense of oppression.

Remembering Stephen's exhortation, Cheng Rang didn't answer anything, and didn't make any moves, just stood quietly in front of her like Stephen, waiting for Leticia to speak again.

"Steven Allan Starphase (Stephen's full name), is the person who contacted you before, the one who gave death, the one next to you?"

"Yes." Stephen introduced to Leticia, "This is the strongest blade of Labra, the first human sword god in history, the owner of the ultimate sword, Cheng Rang."

Uh... The corner of Cheng Rang's mouth twitched, and he subconsciously looked at Stephen, who was beside him and introduced him with a serious face.

I haven't heard that you are going to come to this set, Fantou!

Stephen continued as if he didn't notice the awkward look Cheng Rang cast: "The naming task you initiated will be completed today."

When I come to keep my appointment, he will be your gift to die. "

For the dead?A name I've never heard of.

"Very good, I hope you won't disappoint me..." Leticia stepped down from the throne and came to Cheng Rang, "Your Excellency the Sword God."

Seeing Leticia standing in front of him, Cheng Rang looked at Stephen, blinked and asked, "And then?"

"Then you can start, start trying to kill me." Leticia answered Cheng Rang's question for Stephen.

"Right here? Now?" Cheng Rang looked around the hall, and the waiter who just brought the two of them in was standing quietly aside, as if he was accustomed to the way her Majesty the Queen wanted to die.

Seeing Cheng Rang's hesitation, Leticia spoke to him. "Do you need to prepare anything else? I can ask my subordinates to do it immediately."

"That's not true, but I have a question." Cheng Rang shook his head.

"But it doesn't matter."

Cheng Rang carefully looked at Leticia, who was standing in front of him wearing a mask, and said to her, "We have accepted the task, but have you paid?"

"Hello!" Seeing Leticia's sudden movement of raising her head, Stephen quickly pulled Cheng Rang's arm, and said to Leticia, "You're laughing."

A chuckle came from under her mask, and Leticia raised her hand to signal to Stephen that it was okay, she said: "The reward for the task is [-]% of the property I own, and you will pay after you successfully complete this task Give you."

"Ha, when you're all dead, how do you pay? Besides, how much is [-]% of your property? What if your subordinates renege on the debt?" Cheng Rang spread his hands, "This task is quite special, although generally It is the client who will give the money after the task is completed, but this time, I want to get the reward first."

Leticia's tone was still calm, "It seems that Mr. Cheng is very confident in this mission, but I have seen many dead givers who are as confident as you, how can I believe that you can succeed based on your family's words? After completing this mission, let me hand over my property to others?"

"What, you just want to renege on your debt?"

"Ah..." Stephen let out a long sigh, slapped himself on the forehead, and said to Cheng Rang, "You can't even imagine the wealth she owns, so why would you say that."

"I can imagine, there are a lot of gold and silver, and diamond banknotes are like rain~" Cheng Rang opened his hand and drew a mountain-like outline in midair, "Isn't the Queen? I know she is rich~"

Stephen listened to Cheng Rang's embarrassing speech and actions, turned his head silently, and could hardly bear to look directly, "Queen Leticia, the different world in charge is an entire parallel universe, Cheng!"

"Ten percent of the precious wealth contained in tens of thousands of civilized planets... Can you imagine it?" Stephen asked.

"Huh?!" Cheng Rang's gesticulating arms froze in the air. He mechanically turned his head to look at the masked Leticia in front of him, and slowly squeezed out two words: "Damn it?"

"Fan Tou, how dare you accept such a big order?! Can our Lebra eat it?!" Cheng Rang was shocked and grabbed the collar of Stephen next to him and shook it vigorously, as if you wouldn't give it to him! I asked him as if I would not let you go after I explained clearly, "If you really want to pay, Zell with the largest face value can submerge our entire planet, right?! This is a major event that will destroy the world!" Hello!"

"Well..." Stephen raised his hands to signal Cheng Rang in front of him to calm down, and then said with a smile: "The task content sounds interesting, doesn't it, but I don't actually have much hope for you Come on, wouldn’t it be better if we can succeed, so that we will have endless funds for activities.”

"Fantou! In the end, you were the one in the eyes of the fucking money?!" Cheng Rang rolled his eyes and yelled.

"Because there are too many..."

"Ugh!" Cheng Rang's arms stiffened, and when he let go of his hands, Stephen was free again.

"I won't take this task!" Cheng Rang waved his hand and was about to go out, "The only joy I have is to be a little local tyrant and live with everyone in Labra, now everyone is not short of money , where else am I going to have fun?!"

"The day I let Zhabu live a good life, I will never let it come! Forever!" Cheng Rang raised his fists and shouted loudly.

"I retreated despite the difficulties. Although the name of the sword god is very famous, it is nothing more than that." Leticia looked at Cheng Rang's leaving back, with a hint of disdain in her tone, "I don't even try. If you dare, you just find an excuse to give up, are you humans all such cowards?"

Obviously provocative.

Cheng Rang's footsteps stopped, and Stephen's expression on the side was also a little troubled.

He said to Leticia in front of him: "My Lady Queen Leticia, I suggest you take back what you just said."

The left hand of the black-haired boy slowly grasped the long white knife at his waist.

"Though that guy's excuse is a bit confusing..."

The long knife was out of its sheath, and the smooth mirror-like blade in the boy's hand reflected a dazzling white light.

Stephen said in a deep voice: "But there is no doubt that he is a... hero who has saved many lives and maintained the balance of this world."

"Hmph, it's just a name." Leticia turned around in disappointment, and waved to the waiter beside her.

"Send off guests." (Alien language

"Yes." (Foreign Language)
