Chapter 29 Ares
The man's voice was hoarse and broken, but even there was a bewitching meaning behind the voice.
Save him.
Get him out.
He will give you everything you want.
This thought suddenly appeared in Lu Yi's mind.
This sudden thought raced through his mind, urging him to step forward and rescue the trapped man.
He paused in his steps and narrowed his eyes slightly.
If Lu Yi had not obtained a three-high golden finger buff bonus before, which greatly improved his body's acuity and resistance, I'm afraid he would really try his best to rescue the man under the urging of this voice.
But Lu Yi only hesitated for a moment and continued to move forward.
The trapped man's neck was fixed with an iron collar, and raising his head would increase the pressure and cause more pain.
But he seemed not to feel any pain, still stretching his neck and looking up at Lu Yi.
He looked straight at Lu Yi walking towards him while continuing to lick the blood from his lips.
Lu Yi's blond hair and blue eyes were reflected in his inorganic black pupils. The contrast between the extreme darkness and the polar day was particularly strong.
Lu Yi walked into the cold pool.
This pool of water is indeed the holy water of the baptismal font. The holy water feels warm to the touch but chills you to the bone.
Fortunately, this pool was not as deep as the baptismal pool. When Lu Yi walked deeper, the water only reached below his chest.
However, it can also be seen from this that the trapped man should be quite tall. Lu Yi himself is 1.81 meters tall. With the same height of pool water, Lu Yi's body was flooded to below his chest, while the man, with his waist hunched and his back bent, was still only barely submerged above his hips.
Lu Yixing stopped in front of the man.
The man asked again in a low voice: "Sir, are you here to save me?"
The bewitching meaning behind the voice was even stronger, and even Lu Yi was in a trance and reached out to touch the black meteorite chain that trapped him.
When Lu Yi's hand touched the cold black meteorite, his consciousness instantly became clear.
His gentle movements changed in an instant, and the action of stroking the chain turned into pulling it out with great force.
The man raised his head high under the force, but the movement of raising his head caused the chain collar around his neck to tighten.
The pain made his brows furrowed, and there was blood on his clenched teeth.
"I don't like being forced to do something." Lu Yi frowned slightly and said, "No matter what abilities you have, I advise you to keep them to yourself."
"I didn't do anything." The man's neck trembled slightly.
His movements seemed to show weakness, but his eyes were cold and indifferent, as if he was in an absolutely superior position.
Lu Yi raised his eyebrows, moved a little closer to him, and looked at his dark pupils.
To be so evil, this guy must be a god, right?
It is impossible for humans to have pupils as black as ink.
I just don't know which god this god's heir is.
"You know whether you have done anything or not."
Lu Yi's expression was cold and his words were icy and heartless.
But Ares' heart began to beat wildly.
He had been trapped in this dark, endless cave for too long, so long that even Lu Yi's cold accusations sounded like sweet flirting to him.
He has a really nice voice.
Ares thought that he really wanted to cut open his flesh and lick his vocal cords. His movements would definitely be very gentle.
Ares ignored the severe pain in his neck - or perhaps he had already gotten used to such pain.
He turned his head and looked behind him. Lu Yi's hand was clutching the chain behind Ares. He could feel Lu Yi's warm wrist against his cheek.
A warm wrist is a beating heart.
What Lu Yi held was not the black meteorite that bound Ares, but Ares' gradually awakening heart of desire.
The more unbearable the pain was, the more excited he became.
Ares lowered his noble head in pain and looked at the back of Lu Yi's hand, which was as smooth as jade.
He struggled to get close to him, and before Lu Yi could react, he stuck out his tongue and licked the back of Lu Yi's hand like a harmless cub.
The tip of his tongue touched Lu Yi's back, and because of excessive excitement, countless tiny hairs instantly exploded on his skin.
Lu Yi quickly pulled his hand back, and the chain rose and fell violently due to his rapid movements. Ares took a low breath because of the pain.
Lu Yi saw blood starting to flow from his neck again.
The golden blood flowing into the holy water should have emitted light, but for some reason it seemed to have seeped into the abyss and did not cause any reaction in the holy water. The faint light from the blood was directly absorbed by the dark rock wall.
The firelight in Lu Yi's book is the brightest place in the cave.
His deep blue eyes, pink lips, and golden hair were all incredibly warmed by the orange light.
Even though his eyes were cold, Ares wanted to get closer to him.
Along with the pain, it was also a charity he gave.
"Are you a mermaid? Your blood smells so good..."
Lu Yi paused while wiping his hands, turned to look at him and asked, "What did you say?"
Ares was being stared at by Lu Yi and became visibly excited.
The blood on his lips had already solidified, but the bloodstains at the corners of his mouth were still extremely conspicuous.
"Don't you know that you are a descendant of the mermaids? The blue-blooded royal family—"
Ares's eyes were fixed on Lu Yi, moving down along his chest to the slightly exposed slender waistline.
Lu Yi's hips and legs were covered by the water, and Ares could only regretfully stop his gaze at his chest.
His white shirt above the water was slightly wet, revealing some pink through its semi-transparent surface.
Lu Yi said calmly: "What does it have to do with you whether I am a mermaid or not?"
Very good, now he finally knew what the question mark behind the race on his personal panel meant.
But where did his mermaid bloodline come from?
Lu Yi temporarily put aside his doubts and focused on the descendant of the gods in front of him.
The descendant of the gods stretched out his lips, as if smiling at Lu Yi.
He looked like someone who hadn't smiled for a long time. The curve of his mouth was stiff and forced. It was more like a sluggish machine starting to run than a smile.
"It doesn't matter," he said. "It's just that your blood is blue and mine is yellow. We are all different..."
Lu Yi interrupted him, "No, I'm different from you, my blood is red."
He had a fever a few days ago and his gums were bleeding red blood.
Lu Yi bared his teeth at him, and there were indeed some red marks in his mouth.
The man was stunned by Lu Yi's sudden action, and then burst into laughter.
He laughed more and more happily, his body vibrating slightly with the resonance of his chest.
Such an action would cause the black meteorite iron bone nails on his body to penetrate deeper into his body, but the man still smiled regardless.
His already terrible wound opened again, and blood continued to flow out from the wound and the corners of his mouth.
This scene was really weird. The hung man was laughing and spitting blood.
Lu Yi had a blank expression on his face. He stared at him with dead fish eyes and asked, "Is this funny?"
Lu Yi was afraid that he would laugh himself to death.
He didn't die even though he was bleeding so heavily. The gods are really hard to kill.
Ares shook his head with great effort and said, "I seem to understand why you were able to come in. Not only does He like you, I like you too."
Lu Yi raised his eyebrows and said pointedly: "It doesn't sound like you like me, but more like you are competing with someone."
"No, I really like you." Ares stared at Lu Yi.
Lu Yi chuckled, "Then your love is really cheap."
Ares blinked and asked, "Don't you believe me?"
Lu Yi shook the chains behind him and saw Ares frowning as he wished.
"I believe you, but that doesn't conflict with my feeling that your love is very cheap."
Ares pondered for a moment, then said, "If I can make you a god, does that prove that my love for you is precious?"
"You might as well think of a way to escape from here first." Lu Yi glanced at him.
Lu Yi didn't believe a word the man said.
Perhaps as the heir of God, the man really knew how to become a god, but he would never help Lu Yi become a god so easily.
It's just empty talk.
As long as Lu Yi is tempted, he will have the chance to escape from here.
If Lu Yi lets him go, the one who will be in trouble will be Lu Yi himself.
Although this is a world with gods, becoming a god is not what Lu Yi desires to achieve.
Rather than becoming a god and being high above others, he would rather lie on the sofa and count gold coins.
"I can't escape." Ares said, "So I hope you are here to save me, sir."
His eyes were burning, and the way he looked at Lu Yi was like looking at salvation.
Lu Yi's expression remained unchanged, and he turned to ask about the "he" he had just mentioned.
"Who exactly is this he you just mentioned? Why did you say he likes me?"
Ares shook his head, "I'm not happy when you mention others in front of me."
Lu Yi was speechless and said directly: "Answer me a question and I will answer you a question, okay?"
He just didn't believe that the man would be trapped in this cave for who knows how long without any doubts and curiosity in his heart.
Sure enough, Ares' eyes lit up and he immediately agreed to Lu Yi.
"Then I'll ask first." Lu Yi said without question.
"First question, who is this he you just mentioned?"
"He is a god." Ares said calmly, "But I cannot speak his taboo."
Lu Yi frowned and continued to ask: "Then why did you say that He likes me?"
Could it be that the [God's Favor] buff has taken effect?
Ares didn't answer, he looked at him with his eyes open and said, "Obviously it's my turn to ask you now."
Lu Yi shrugged and said, "Then ask."
"My name is Ares, what's yours?"
It was a very simple question. Lu Yi said, "Lu Yi Klein."
"Luyi Klein." Ares slowly pronounced his name, "It sounds nice. I don't have a last name, can I take your last name Klein?"
He looked sad and pitiful, but Lu Yi was cold and heartless.
"That's wishful thinking. It's impossible." Lu Yi urged, "Hurry up and answer my question."
"Okay." Ares said.
"If you must ask why He favors you so much, I don't know. When I was trapped here, I lost all my power. I can no longer explore His thoughts, nor can I influence the gods."
"Wait, you said, the left and right gods?" Lu Yi repeated.
Even though the gods are called gods, they are essentially just followers of gods and a race that is closer to gods than humans.
What qualifications does Ares have to influence the gods?
"Did I say that?" Ares lied with his eyes open, "You must have heard it wrong."
"Do you like the features of black hair and black eyes?" Ares asked.
"I like it." Lu Yi replied impatiently.
In his previous life, he lived in a country with black hair and black eyes.
No kidding, if Ares in front of him didn't look like a lunatic, based on appearance alone, Lu Yi would like him more than Astor.
But Ares didn’t care why Lu Yi liked girls with black hair and black eyes. He automatically identified himself with them and translated Lu Yi’s words as “He likes me too.”
"So we are in love with each other." Ares said with finality.
Although he is just a superfluous incarnation of divine power, so what?
Ares, the god of killing as his original form, did not receive Lu Yi's favor, but he did as a prisoner.
Ares thought excitedly, not caring at all that his original form also had black hair and black eyes.
Lu Yi was already used to the man talking to himself, so he calmly asked, "You are not an ordinary heir of God, then who are you? Or, are you really a god?"
Ares had a blank expression, as if he was thinking about Lu Yi's question.
After a while, he said, "I am not the heir of God, but I am not a god either."
Lu Yi frowned and asked, "No? Were you once?"
Ares shook his head, "I don't know, maybe I'm nothing? Maybe I exist just to wait for you here."
As a superfluous divine power, when he was abandoned like garbage in the underworld by Ares, the god of slaughter, he had already lost his identity as any existence.
Not a god, not a descendant of a god, and certainly not a human being.
What a stupid and cheesy love talk! Lu Yi resisted the urge to roll his eyes.
"I want to ask you, how did you come here? Did He guide you here?" Ares asked.
He wanted to ask why Lu Yi came just now, but he was afraid that it would be regarded as an accusation and make Lu Yi unhappy, so he could only ask in a roundabout way.
"No, I felt that there was a magical power in the back mountain of Bryside. No, it was divine power, so I decided to come here to take a look."
Ares was a little confused and asked, "Has the Church changed its name to Blessed now?"
"What Church? I fell into this space from the back mountain of Bryside."
"No." Ares shook his head. "I was imprisoned in the back mountain of the Church. If I remember correctly, this place should be called Kadifan. If the name has not changed in the past few hundred years..."
He came to the territory of the Holy See? Lu Yi was dumbfounded.
[“857, how long has it been since I accidentally entered this cave?”]
[It's been an hour, Canaan is looking for you outside like crazy, almost all the teachers in the academy are out.] 857 gloated.
Lu Yi froze, turned around and walked out of the pool.
He walked quickly, splashing water.
Ares behind him became anxious and shouted his name.
"Lu Yi!"
"Lu Yi!"
"Are you leaving now?"
Ares wanted to move closer to Lu Yi, but the black meteorite behind him trapped him, preventing him from getting close to Lu Yi.
He struggled hard and the blood flowed out twice as fast.
But Ares didn't care.
He had been trapped in this underground cave for hundreds of years, and the black meteorite iron had almost melted into his flesh and bones.
For the first time, Ares hated the chains that trapped him behind him.
He wanted to reach out and touch Lu Yi's back as he left without hesitation.
He wanted to take a step forward and follow Lu Yi closely.
But he couldn't do anything.
This made Ares extremely angry.
He could no longer endure this endless, timeless night.
"Lu Yi——"
He roared so loudly that blood oozed from his throat.
His broken last words kept echoing in the empty cave.
Lu Yi, who was in a hurry, was startled and turned to look at Ares.
At this time, Ares stretched his hands forward, and his neck was covered with bloody marks from the collar.
Golden and red divine blood flowed from his eyes and the corners of his mouth. He looked like a fallen, desperate god, or a giant demon beast that had crawled out of the abyss.
His hysterical madness once again appeared in Lu Yi's eyes without any concealment.
This didn't sound like a call for Lu Yi, but more like a request for his life.
Seeing Lu Yi turning his head to look at him, Ares shed clear and transparent tears.
"If you talk to me, you can never leave me behind."
Lu Yi was a little frightened by his madness, but more of it was an inexplicable sense of confidence.
"Did I say I was going to abandon you?" Lu Yi turned the tables.
Ares seemed to have suddenly lost his ability to understand, staring blankly at Lu Yi.
"You're ready to leave here—"
It was pitch black here, and Ares knew that no one would want to stay here.
And Lu Yi, who was loved at first sight, obviously wouldn't be willing.
He must have so much love that he wouldn't care about a trapped beast's begging.
He regarded his words as lies and his likes as cheap and worthless.
But even so, he wanted him.
He wanted to force it, to force the unattainable thing to be trapped by him.
Stay with him forever in this dark underground——
"Yes, I'm ready to leave here." Lu Yi said, "I was here by accident, and there is something urgent that needs my attention."
"Will you come to see me again in the future?" Ares panted.
Lu Yi had originally planned to come back and investigate further, but Ares's sinister look made him feel inexplicably guilty.
"I will definitely come back." Lu Yi said.
"Then will you come to me?" Ares only wanted to hear the answer he wanted to hear.
"I will." Lu Yi said.
There is a being here who is suspected to have been a god, but for whatever reason, Lu Yi will come to find Ares again.
"Then swear to God." Ares said stubbornly.
Lu Yi felt a little helpless, but seeing Ares's wounded and stubborn appearance, he still took a step back.
He raised his hand and said, "God of Light, I..."
"No." Ares interrupted him, "Swearing to the god who represents war and murder..."
Ares knew that the God of Light had already fallen in the Ragnarok ten thousand years ago, and there were not many gods still alive.
Only killing is eternal and strong.
Even if swearing would alarm Him, he still wanted Lu Yi to swear.
"Swear to Ares, the god of killing." Ares stared at Lu Yi.
Lu Yi paused when he heard this, and also stared closely at Ares's dark eyes.
He extended his hand, and as Ares wished, he whispered, "God of Slaughter, Luy Klein will definitely come back here."
Ares was finally satisfied and revealed a somewhat scary smile.
He said sweetly: "Lu Yi, please go this way, the exit is behind me..."
"Remember to come and see me..."
…
The exit was above his head. For some reason, he couldn't use magic inside the cave, so Lu Yi could only climb to the exit with great effort.
After finally seeing the light of day again, Lu Yi hadn't even had time to breathe two breaths of fresh air before he was surrounded by the Knights Templar in front of him.
Several knight swords pointed towards Lu Yi, and the silver sword light almost flashed his eyes.
Lu Yi immediately raised his hands, making a safe and non-threatening gesture.
"I'm Lu Yi Klein, a freshman in Braceside. I accidentally came here. May I ask where is this place? Whose knights are you?" Lu Yi asked preemptively.
Some of the knights retracted their swords, while the others remained vigilant against Lu Yi to prevent him from suddenly attacking.
"A freshman from Bressaid? Why would a freshman from Bressaid appear here?" a man who looked like the captain asked doubtfully.
The person next to him rolled his eyes at him, "God of Light, you must have scored zero in geography! Don't you remember? Bryside and Saint Dover are both backed by the same mountain. If this student accidentally got lost in the back mountain of Bryside, he might have mistakenly entered the back mountain of Saint Dover!"
Just based on this face, this blonde hair and blue eyes, the person in front of him doesn't look like a bad guy, okay? ! The knight who spoke for Lu Yi thought biasedly.
The knight captain waved his hand and said simply and rudely, "Never mind! We'll know whether he's a good guy or a bad guy after we take him to the bishop for a look! Aren't there two cardinals talking in the front hall?"
The knight captain dragged Lu Yi forward without saying anything.
Another knight held his sword and poked him in the kidney with the hilt, saying in dissatisfaction: "You are too rude! His identity has not been confirmed yet, how can you treat him like a criminal? If he is really just a student who strayed in, or even a noble, have you thought about the punishment you might receive?"
The knight captain snorted, "Don't pretend to be so arrogant. You are just soft-hearted because he is handsome, right? I tell you, a true knight will not be tempted by external things!"
Although he said this, the knight captain still calmly let go of Lu Yi's hand.
The dissatisfied knight was therefore able to get close to Lu Yi.
He looked at Lu Yi, whose clothes were soaked, with some pity, and without saying a word, he took off the bright red cloak behind him and put it on Lu Yi.
"Although the weather is not cold, you may still catch a cold if you are exposed to the wind while wearing wet clothes..." He kept reminding her, "I believe you are not a bad person. Don't worry, the archbishops are all righteous and kind people, and they will soon clear your name."
"Please wear my cloak for the time being. I will immediately find two suitable clothes for you."
A group of people led Lu Yi towards the front hall.
Sure enough, there were two cardinals in red and white robes talking in the front hall.
Lu Yi's eyes lit up when he saw the two men.
Because those two people were actually his acquaintances, the brothers Gun and Good!
Gungud and the other two were also very surprised to see Lu Yi. Seeing the Templar Knight behind him still holding his sword, they immediately shouted at him to retreat.
Lu Yi looked at those respectful knights and explained: "Actually, this is a misunderstanding. These knights are all great knights!"
Good smiled and said, "I know that they are indeed loyal and pious knights of the Temple."
Gu En also looked at Lu Yi with a smile. He did not ask Lu Yi any questions, but looked at him gently and said, "Long time no see, little Lu Yi."
"Bishop, long time no see, are you all right?"
"I'm fine, I'm just a little surprised to see you suddenly!"
"Lu Yi, do you want to meet the Pope?" Gunn suddenly asked.
"The Pope has always wanted to meet you, but unfortunately he never had the chance. Now by chance, he happens to be in the Vatican. Do you want to visit him?"
The author has something to say:
As the God of Slaughter disguised as the God of Light, the killing power in his body is seriously exceeded. In order to achieve a delicate balance, he had to cut out a part of his power. It's a bit schizophrenic.
The small tentacles are projections of the attacker's original body, and the prisoners are clones that were cut out.
Someone asked about the time for additional updates. It will probably be next week or the week after next, so there will be two updates. Thank you.
