Chapter 2 Prayer
==============
In the darkness of eternal solitude, for the first time, he had subtle mood swings.
This emotion is like a tide, spreading in all directions.
Even the most ferocious and unruly demons dare not challenge the majesty of the gods at this time, they prostrate on the ground, trembling.
……very good.
He laughed angrily.
Originally, He didn't care about these believers.
Human life is short and fragile, and for the gods, it is just a pastime when bored.
In the face of those pious prayers and grand ceremonies, sometimes He would glance down, but most of the time he chose to ignore them.
He also never gave a response at the ceremony.
It's not that he's dissatisfied with the sacrifice, but... who cares whether the ants are holding grains of wheat or candy?
But now, he was rejected by the sacrifices.
In the past, all the sacrifices brought to the altar were praying in fear and fear, not daring to show any disrespect.
This was the first time he encountered such a perfunctory sacrifice.
He didn't even want to pretend, he was still on the altar, and he just wanted to believe in other gods.
Well, it's really good.
Originally, he didn't want to accept the tribute sacrifice, but now he heard the young man's heartfelt voice, and suddenly changed his mind.
He wanted to see how... audacious this sacrifice was.
……
Standing on the altar, Lin Qiao felt a cold gaze sweep over him.
He trembled subconsciously, and before he could recover, he saw all the black-robed believers around him kneeling on the ground with a plop.
With fanaticism on their faces, they raised their arms and shouted: "May the Lord of the Abyss come—"
Lin Qiao:?
Why did you suddenly get sick?
He realized something and lowered his head slowly.
The light on the altar circulated, circle after circle of runes lit up, and the ominous blood rushed straight into the sky.
Lin Qiao's first reaction was to run.
But when he thought about running away, a long and narrow gap opened in the air, in which black mist billowed, filled with the coldness of ominousness and death.
In the next second, Lin Qiao stepped into the air and fell into the endless darkness.
The howling wind surrounds the body, and the feeling of weightlessness blows over my face.
He kept falling, falling.
...to the abyss.
In the moment before he lost consciousness, he also heard the hymn ringing around his ears.
"The Lord of the Abyss has mercy..."
If Lin Qiao could speak, he would definitely swear: "Fuck, you've been fooled!"
……
When she opened her eyes again, Lin Qiao had come to a strange and strange place.
This is a cold and lonely castle.
The room where Lin Qiao lived was simple and made of stones.
There was no light, just a tall, narrow window.
Lin Qiao stood barefoot on the ground, his lips turned white from the cold.He leaned over to the window and stood on tiptoe trying to look out.
A blood moon hangs high in the air.
Farther away, the hillside was endless, and ghost-like figures could be faintly seen wandering around, and strange howling sounds could be heard from time to time.
This is the abyss, and it is also a place abandoned by the gods.
Lin Qiao was speechless: I only knew that I was unlucky, how could I know that I could be so unlucky?
As soon as he passed through the book, he was directly sent to the Lord of the Abyss as a sacrifice before he knew the situation.
Lin Qiao glanced at his thin arms and legs, and his expression became subtle.As far as he is like, it is estimated that he can only be a plate of snacks for the Lord of the Abyss, and there is not even enough space between his teeth.
Lin Qiao: Can you save me?
It seems... there is no way to save it.
In the original book, the abyss is a map of the later period.
At that time, the protagonist had already become the Holy Son of Light, bathed in the grace of the God of Light.He held the Bow of Dawn in his left hand and the Holy Sword in his right hand, so that his equipment buffs were full, and he barely defeated the Lord of the Abyss.
But now he hasn't even seen the protagonist's face, let alone when the protagonist will come to the abyss.
What if the main character came and he was buried in the ground?
After much deliberation, Lin Qiao decided to improve herself.
He turned around in the stone room, and by the crimson moonlight outside the window, he found a door leading to the corridor.But before he pushed it open, he heard footsteps coming from outside the door.
someone is coming.
Lin Qiao held his breath and thought: Could it be the Lord of the Abyss who came to eat sashimi for himself?
……
The air scorched.
Time passed minute by minute.
Lin Qiao held her breath, quietly approached the crack of the door, and looked out.
The corridor is deep and narrow, and the bottom cannot be seen at a glance.
Under the candlelight, a figure elongated and walked staggeringly.
He... or rather it.It was more than three meters high, with red skin, and high shoulders that almost reached the ceiling.
It may be because there is no day in the abyss, and the eyesight is not good at night, and it can't see what other people look like, so it starts to let itself go, and the facial features grow freely in the direction of strange shapes.The most prominent ones are the fangs and the traces of the flames on the forehead.
Lin Qiao looked at it for a while, and came to a conclusion: not ugly enough, it should not be the Lord of the Abyss.
Good news: not Lord of the Abyss.
Bad news: it's the flame demons from the abyss, note - humans are also on their recipes.
Thanks to the complete world view of the original book, the author has arranged specific settings for all races, so that Lin Qiao can recognize what it is at a glance.
He thought about it carefully - the flame demon was born from the flames, manic, low-intelligence, and cannibalism.The weak point is at the ankle.
With a weakness, it doesn't seem so scary... What a ghost!
The flame demon is [-] meters tall. Even if he has a weakness, he can probably be dragged around the Ferris wheel in the sky with one hand.
Thinking of this, Lin Qiao suddenly found something in the hands of the flame demon, hanging on the ground, and rubbing against the floor made a toothache sound.
He fixed his eyes.
What the Flaming Demon held was...a corpse.
The corpse did not know how long it had been dead, its body was swollen, its body was covered with tooth marks, and half of its stomach had been hollowed out.In the process of walking, it dragged on the ground, leaving a winding and smelly trail.
Lin Qiao wanted to vomit, but he clung to the tender flesh of his arm, trying not to make a sound—if he was found, that corpse would be his end.
There is a stone wall.
Lin Qiao leaned against the wall, her heart beating rapidly.
Boom.Boom...
The footsteps stopped abruptly.
It is really that the more you are afraid of something, the more you will come.
The flame demon stopped, staring around with a pair of copper bell-like eyes.Coincidentally, beside it is the door leading to the stone chamber.
The flame demon spewed out a hot sulfur breath from its nose.
There is a breath of life.
It smells...so fragrant...
Where... I really want to eat...
The Flame Yamao hammered the wall hard, wanting to pierce the wall directly to find the source of the fragrance.
boom--
The entire stone wall trembled, and the gravel in the gaps in the wall "sanded" down.
Lin Qiao didn't dare to move, she wanted to cry but had no tears.
Shouldn't he be picked up by a low-level flame demon?
If I had known this, I might as well have been stabbed directly by the Lord of the Abyss, at least it would save face if I said it.
……
In the eternal darkness.
A pair of indifferent eyes fell on Lin Qiao.
With his nature, he doesn't care about the life and death of the sacrifices.
But this sacrifice really aroused his curiosity, woke him up from a deep sleep, and gave him a ray of consciousness to pay attention to.
He saw Lin Qiao's predicament.
The sacrifice was trembling with fright, like a deer being chased by hounds, his eyes flustered.
He is very interested.
Will the victim cry in panic, or beg for mercy in despair?
No one is not afraid of death.
They were afraid and struggling, but they couldn't escape their predetermined fate.Like a moth entangled in a spider's web, in false happiness, it goes unconsciously to the grandest death.
But don't care, He will forgive all this.
As long as the victim prays to him devoutly, he will grant him the mercy of the gods.
He waited for the sacrifice to repent of his decision, knowing that the best choice was to fall into the embrace of the abyss.
……
Lin Qiao is a non-firm atheist.
That is to say, he is selective in feudal superstition.
For example, when the left eyelid twitches—the left eye twitches and the right eye twitches disaster, I’m going to get rich, okay!
When the right eyelid twitches—it must be because I didn’t sleep well at night, it’s all right.
For another example, during the exam, he would beg him not to fail, but in normal times, huh?What god?Unfamiliar, really unfamiliar!
So, now he didn't even think about praying for help from the gods.
It is better to ask God than to ask oneself!
Lin Qiao tried hard to find a weapon that could be used to resist within sight, and reached out and grabbed a stick on the ground.
With a weapon in hand, at least it can bring a little sense of security.
The weak point of the Flaming Demon lies in the ankles.
If the thing dares to come in, poke it in the ankle, and then use the opportunity to escape.
Lin Qiao took a deep breath and clenched the stick in his hand.
Fortunately, the IQ of the flame demon is so low that it can't even find the door. After a while of beatings to no avail, it was attracted by the carrion in its hand, eager to eat, and walked away with heavy steps .
The sound of footsteps in my ears gradually disappeared.
Lin Qiao relaxed his shoulders and wiped it, only to find that there were beads of sweat on his forehead.
The stone room is still safe for the time being.
Are you going to stay here forever?
Lin Qiao shook his head lightly, and quickly rejected this possibility.
Still have to go out.
If you stay, it will definitely be served as a buffet, and if you go out, it may become a takeaway and delivered to your door.
Choose one of the two, he chooses the latter, at least there is still a little hope of life.
Lin Qiao's gaze became firm, he held a stick in one hand to defend himself, and pushed open the door with the other.
creak-
Lin Qiao got out from the crack of the door and came to the corridor. He looked left and right, and finally chose the direction opposite to the flame demon.
……
The Abyss is cursed with eternal night, making it difficult to tell the passage of time.
Lin Qiao didn't know how long he had been gone.
The corridors are intricate, like a Minoan labyrinth that traps monsters. Without a ball of thread as a guide, you will never find the right way.
After passing through two forked roads, he faced a similar road and fell into deep thinking.
Where is he?
Where is this again?
Lin Qiao didn't have a good sense of direction, and when faced with forks in the road, he became dizzy.
Now I can only use the most simple and stupid method-leave a mark on the wall to remind myself not to follow the same path.
Lin Qiao left a "X" on the stone wall. Just as he was about to continue walking, he heard heavy footsteps coming from ahead.
Boom.Boom!
... This movement is a bit familiar.
Lin Qiao stopped hesitantly, and a stench came over his face.He glanced around, and at the other end of the corridor, a tall figure could be vaguely seen.
Very good!Walking towards us is our old friend, Flame Demon.
Across half of the corridor, Lin Qiao and Huo Yamo looked at each other affectionately for a moment.
Lin Qiao: Scared!
Flame Demon: Surprise!
Lin Qiao is very considerate and understands the excited mood of the flame demon.
In this case, it is tantamount to saying that when the stomach is too hungry, the free takeaway happens to be delivered to the door.
When I opened it, it was fragrant, hot, and full of color and fragrance.
Who can't be happy?
But... you are too happy, right?
The Flame Yamo was so excited that his five sense organs flew around, his body became more energetic, and he no longer limped when walking.
This appearance is more exciting than seeing her own mother.
What else could Lin Qiao do?
Lin Qiao: I can't afford to provoke you, I'll get wet first.
He turned around and ran away without saying a word.
The Flame Yamo chased after him.
You chased me for a while, Lin Qiao glanced back from the corner of the eye.
The flame demon was not thrown away, but became more and more excited as he chased after him, and the saliva from the corner of his mouth was about to hang on the floor.
It also made a gurgling sound, as if saying: Xiangxiang, hungry, eat.
Lin Qiao: "..."
No, he can't run anymore, if he continues, he will die.
At this time, Lin Qiao finally prayed to the gods.
He urged anxiously in his heart: where is the god, where is the god?Can the gods save me?
The Lord of the Abyss fell silent when he heard this strange prayer: ...
Is this considered soft, or not soft?
