"What do you mean? What is this core?"

Rhodes' voice was hoarse. He only hated himself for not having the talent for cultivation and for not being able to save his wife directly.

"Dear, child..."

Qianze Liuli's voice began to become unclear. After being strangled by the neck for such a long time, even a mixed-blood could hardly hold on.

She glanced at Laura coldly and said nothing more.

They both seemed to dislike each other, and Laura was the one who occupied

"This core is the truth about the child in your belly."

The runes in Laura's arms lit up, blocking the hot wind that was blowing towards her.

"Nonsense! You are talking nonsense!"

At this moment, Qianze Liuli shouted angrily, and the surrounding flames gathered on his arms, directly shaking Laura's arms apart.

But Qianze Liuli paid a price for this. Her arms were also set on fire by the flames. Seeing this, Rhodes rushed forward.

However, the dark shadow waved in the air and forcibly broke the flames. Laura walked out of the flames as if nothing had happened.

"Humph, half-blood, do you really think you can get pregnant? Even if you are pregnant, what would it be like to give birth without a soul?"

The long whip hit the ground violently, and from under the yellow sand, a giant made of white bones lifted up the heavy sand and stones, and his huge body slowly crawled out from under the yellow sand.

Summoning of the Dead?

Qianze Liuli's subconscious judgment was like this. She never thought that Laura would do this.

It seems that Laura has indeed gone further and further down the inhuman path.

Laura sneered. She looked at the two people in front of her and simply extended her still agile arm into the core.

"Look, this is its power."

call......

After exhaling a long breath of hot air, the mechanical arm actually turned back into a human arm.

"Let's make it clear today if we have anything to say. We won't stop fighting until one side is dead, and no one will get to know the truth! We don't need the core, you can take it, and don't bother us again."

Rhodes couldn't help but widen his eyes. He had indeed witnessed the power of the core, but this power undoubtedly made him feel terrified.

But Laura and Qianze Liuli's eyes passed over him, and there seemed to be a smell of gunpowder in the air.

In the end, the two of them kept their distance. Qianze Liuli put out the flames on his arms, and strange runes appeared on his forehead, while Baliya also eliminated the inhuman parts of his body.

"It seems that some people don't want to give up."

Laura snorted, crossing her arms over her chest and looking around.

"So what? My children are more important than anything else."

Qianze Liuli stared at Laura coldly. She obviously did not intend to give up the power of the core. She had not told Rhodes what it was for so many years, but today she had undoubtedly proved its importance with her actions.

"That's enough... Qianze Liuli, I think you already know my real purpose, and you don't need me to tell you the truth about the destruction of your hometown."

Rhodes really didn't have the strength to stand anymore, and the fatigue made him a little drowsy.

Qianze Liuli no longer intends to hide what happened at the beginning.

Hearing Laura say this, Qianze Liuli sighed deeply.

Rhodes was about to say something when Qianze Liuli reached out to stop her and shook her head slightly at her.

This is a person's obsession with his homeland, which is unquestionable.

"I was recovering near your hometown, and also collecting information about the border of the abyss..."

This time it was Laura's turn to speak.

The empire at that time had already been devastated by the dark creatures. If the power of the abyss overflowed into the real world, it would probably become an even more difficult disaster to deal with.

Thus, the spell of extinction came here.

At that time, no fluctuations in the power of the abyss were observed, and the Empire had already determined that it was a success.

But looking at Lola's appearance now, she might be even more terrifying than Qianze Liuli had imagined.

"I was the last person to know the news, and by the time I knew about it, I had already been carried out of the place by others."

Laura was seriously injured at the time and was completely unconscious.

Qianze Liuli, who was standing next to Rhodes, did not refute. She just supported Rhodes quietly and waited for Laura to finish telling her about the past.

After hearing all this, Qianze Liuli sighed deeply.

There was no rage, nor any other action, only a helpless sigh.

"You guys go back."

Qianze Liuli waved her hand, and a crack appeared on Rhodes' side, through which he could vaguely see the outside world.

Chapter 87 Questions

The cowardly expression no longer appeared on Qianze Liuli's face. On the contrary, she seemed to have returned to the state she was when she first met Rhodes.

Cold, aloof, and treating life as nothing.

"Sure enough, I said that a fairy who has lived for such a long time would not have any tricks up his sleeve."

Laura looked at Qianze Liuli in front of her with a sneer. She had prepared so much just for today.

They are all thousand-year-old foxes, why are they playing Strange Stories from a Chinese Studio here?

As a necromancer, Laura should have decayed within the limited human age, but through Rhodes's ingenious technology and the power of the core, she is now beginning to possess human flesh and blood again.

"Rhodes, please leave."

Qianze Liuli ignored Laura's provocation, and sent Rhodes out of the forest without even giving him a chance to speak.

At this moment, Rhodes seemed to have a revolving lantern flashing before his eyes.

"Hurry...Hurry and save me!"

He was washed ashore after a shipwreck.

"How did this sea beast appear here? It should be just some ordinary marine creatures..."

Under the cliff on the coast, a sea beast exuding the breath of death greedily stretched out its tentacles and tightly wrapped Cheka who was hanging on the edge of the cliff, as if it was planning to pull him off the cliff directly with brute force.

But his companions did not hide the fear on their faces.

“…There’s nothing I can do about it! Go to hell!”

After being stunned for a long time, Rhodes finally reacted and was pushed off the boat by his companions.

But this cannot be blamed on him. Rhodes knew that he had only learned magic for a few months, and sea beasts were legendary monsters. There was no hope of winning at all.

"Yeah...sorry!"

Watching his companions crawling away, Rhodes finally couldn't hold on and fell into the sea.

The moment he fell to the ground, Rhodes realized that he was not far from death.

"It's not entirely shameful to die at the hands of a legendary sea beast..."

Just as Rhodes was thinking this, closing his eyes and preparing to face death, the legendary monster disappeared before his eyes.

Gray-black blood splattered on Cheka's face, his internal organs leaked to the ground, and a new shadow appeared in the field of vision.

Ah, so that's how it is...

"Succubus?"

Before Cheka could continue thinking, he fainted.

After waking up, the healed body, the unfamiliar place, and the shackles naturally made him extremely confused.

"Boy, your dark magic power is too strong..."

Before Rhodes could become more confused, the succubus he had seen before fainting appeared.

Sitting on the bone chair, looking down at her, her extremely revealing clothes and hot body did not attract Cheka's attention.

"Dark magic? What is that?"

Cheka, who had never been exposed to magic, was naturally confused.

But the oriental girl explained it very enthusiastically.

When the entrance to the forest disappeared in front of Rhodes, no one knew what happened in the forest from then on.

"Why does this story have no beginning or end?"

Ye Qing looked at Natalia beside him with some confusion, but Natalia also stopped here.

Looking at Ye Qing's expression, Natalia instead revealed an intriguing smile.

"Who said there's no beginning or end? Didn't I tell you the ending?"

"The people were directly driven out of the forest, and then...what?"

Ye Qing asked subconsciously, but fell into deep thought the moment she said it.

This story almost names the characters, Rhodes, Laura, except for the name Qianze Liuli.

Combined with the so-called mechanical technology, no matter who it is, it is inevitable that everyone will associate it with the young captain and the girl "Lola" behind him.

If we simply match the characters in the story with them...

Ye Qing suddenly felt a little nauseous. If it really corresponded to the character in the story, then under the "shota" skin of Captain Shota, there must be a person of unknown age.

"This matter is not that simple. This is all I can tell you."

Natalia patted Ye Qing on the shoulder, and the chaotic world around them slowly disappeared, and the two of them reappeared on the deck.

Many players around were also startled by the sudden appearance of the two people. After they reappeared, Ye Qing discovered that a hidden achievement had actually appeared.

Achievement: History in the Shadows

Reward: Player's current experience +1

Although the achievement system is indeed more about giving players a sense of immersion, the rewards themselves are not particularly important.

But isn’t this current experience +1 a bit too stingy?

"I have told you everything. I hope you don't make any mistakes when you get to the Empire~"

"...Ms. Natalia."

Just when Natalia was about to fly away on her sword, Ye Qing suddenly called her.

"Is there anything else? If I were to tell you about what happened just now..."

"you guess."

After Ye Qing finished speaking, he immediately logged off.

You guys like to be a riddler, so I’ll be a riddler today too!

After Ye Qing went offline, in Natalia's perspective, Ye Qing turned around and trotted back to the cabin, leaving Natalia with a confused look on her face.

After going offline, Ye Qing was not idle either.

She simply grabbed the tablet and imported all the information she could remember into it. She was unable to record Natalia's conversation in the area just now.

But just remembering this much is enough. The story Natalia just told is not complicated, but there are a few points that Ye Qing must remember.

Artifice, Great Forest, Core, Fairy.

From the perspective of the NPCs in the divine fantasy world, perhaps fairies and succubi are the same.

But from the player's perspective, these are two completely different "creatures".

There is a detailed description in the entry about fairies. Fairies are spirits born from various treasures, which means they are a kind of treasure guardian.

The succubus is a true demonic creature that relies on sucking the essence of men to become stronger, but its survival is not dependent on essence.

"If we talk about two kinds of creatures, I'm afraid there is a lot of subjectivity in this story."

Ye Qing leaned back on the sofa, thinking about the relationship between the three characters.

Apart from Rhodes, who seems to be kept in the dark, the story of Qianze Liuli and Laura actually revolves around the core of the great forest.
