Chapter 38



"Abyss Esther".

This actually is a name.

It is a name with a surname and seems to have special meaning.

The moment he heard the name, Wu Xiangwang looked at the polite and gorgeous man in front of him and had the illusion that he was facing a handsome and elegant aristocratic gentleman.

The back of his hand felt like it was burned, and he pulled it back suddenly.

It was indeed an illusion—

The golden antlers and the ferocious black bone wings were right in front of him, and the red and black eyes were staring at him deeply.

How could such a being be a human?

But even when he was denying it so strongly, Wu Xiangwang couldn't help but think of a possibility.

His words, his appearance, and his thoughts which were almost rational except for his weird aesthetic taste, all made Wu Xiangwang want to think about that possibility.

only.

What if that possibility becomes a reality?

It was still a heavy and sad ending.

"So... Abyss."

Wu Xiangwang shook off all unnecessary thoughts and suddenly narrowed his eyes. "Can you tell me where those two gems you gave me came from?"

Rather than exploring this gorgeous and strange secret that is almost impossible to find the answer to, Wu Xiangwang is more concerned about the "two hundred million" that he has already obtained.

"Your so-called pursuit of beauty, pursuit of power, pursuit of everything you desire, isn't that just stealing gems from the auction house in the capital?"

Aren't you ashamed of giving a dirty gift?

Abis Ester showed a surprised expression for a short while, but soon he smiled happily.

"Oh, is that the ugly guy with eyes all over his head slandering me?"

"Xiangxiang, don't believe what Guiyi says, because they are all full of lies."

Wu Xiangwang felt his fist itching. "Do you want me to use a mirror to show you your horns and wings?"

I am a crow, so what right do I have to say that coal is black?

"Also, don't call me Xiangxiang! Do you want to have a life-and-death battle with me?!"

Abyss sighed, "I almost forgot, I'm also a weirdo who's full of lies."

"But I promise, I won't lie to the beauty in my heart."

"I was the one who gave them away. Why can't I take them back?"

Wu Xiangwang automatically blocked out the words "the beauty in my heart" and was filled with questions after hearing Abyss's last words.

"You took the gems to the trading house to sell, and then you stole them back. Are you... okay?"

brain.

Abyss chuckled, then turned his palm upwards, and the third dark amber gem appeared in his palm.

Wu Xiangwang discovered that the color of this gem was almost the same as the color of the thin armor he was wearing, and an expression of disbelief suddenly appeared on his face.

"Did you hide the Energem in a cave?!"

Why can he just casually take out a natural energy gem that looks like it’s worth hundreds of millions?

Gorgeous Weird chuckled and shook his head: "I'm just a wanderer with nothing. How could there be an energy gem in a cave?"

"I just found a beautiful gem while wandering around, and I wanted to let those ugly guys see this beauty."

Abyss suddenly stepped forward and placed the amber energy gem between Wu Xiangwang's collarbones, where there was no thin armor of deep red amber covering the area, revealing the astonishing white underneath.

And at this moment, an amber red is dotted on this whiteness.

"Just taking a look, I didn't say I would give it to them."

Don’t forget each other: “???”

The gorgeous weird one looked as if it was a matter of course: "The ugly weird one is not worthy of wearing jewels."

So you just went through the motions of competing auction houses and the bloodied nobles and weirdos, and in the end, you got it back the same way you gave it, right?!

This is true. Let’s see it.

"But after meeting you, I realized where those gems really belong."

"They should be on your body, highlighting your beauty in different ways~"

Looking at these two gorgeous guys with sincerity written all over their eyes, even the ultimate beauty-loving Wu Xiannan felt for a moment that he had lost.

This is what it means to use your entire life to reject ugliness and pursue beauty.

He is too sincere about beauty.

I guess he had been single for a thousand years before he met me.

Because I can't find any beautiful women.

Yes, he is the most beautiful beauty.

It's also a trick!

"You have good taste."

Wu Xiannan's praise was also extremely sincere.

But he didn't take the amber gem.

He could collect these gems before he knew their value and power.

After knowing this——

"Then I'll dance with you."

Once you know this, you must act quickly to make money!

Abyss laughed again.

He suddenly reached out and grasped Wu Xiangwang's waist, then spread his wings, instantly causing a violent gust of wind to blow around them. "Let's have a dance of pursuit! There are always those annoying creatures who want to hinder my pursuit of freedom and beauty."

The moment he was lifted up by Abyss, Wu Xiangwang keenly felt the powerful and terrifying pressure that was rapidly spreading from the center of the Carnival City.

He could conclude without much thought that it was the mayor of Carnival City who was chasing him.

The powerful force that suppressed him, which was of who knows how many levels, made Wu Xiangwang tense up. If it weren't for the fact that Abyss's arm around his waist was too strong, he might have been pinned down and unable to move the moment he felt the powerful pressure.

Only after he had gained the strength to resist the terrifying force that locked them did Wu Xiangwang turn to look at Abyss in disbelief.

"What did you do? Why is the city lord chasing you?!"

Could it be that this guy stole the gems from the city lord's treasury?!

Abyss was flying at a high speed in the air, and his voice was filled with the same doubt and confusion as Wu Xiangwang's.

"I'm also confused. I just admired a beautiful woman's transformation, why did you keep chasing me?"

"ah……"

Wu Xiangwang heard the gorgeous and strange reason he finally thought of in the biting wind:

"Maybe I accidentally injured some of His people when I was clearing the area."

Wu Xiangwang instantly thought of the overly quiet streets around him when he woke up.

So, how many weird things in Carnival City have you cleared out, you damn guy?

Wu Xiangwang thought that he would be taken to the ends of the earth by Abyss, and he might not be able to find the way back to the City of Carnival if he turned back.

But that's clearly a mistake this gorgeously elegant, yet overly cunning creature wouldn't make.

He only danced this "dance of pursuit" for half the court before Abis dragged him out with his waist and arm in a beautiful spin.

Before he fell in mid-air, his cheek was unexpectedly touched by those soft and cold lips.

Wu Xiangwang suddenly opened his eyes wide, and before he could vent his surprise and anger, he heard Abyss's smug laughter.

"The dance isn't finished yet, so use this as a substitute."

"Looking forward to the next beautiful meeting and... even sweeter... w."

The wind was so strong that Wu Xiangwang didn't hear the last word clearly.

But he unilaterally thought it was a "dance".

He rubbed his cheeks hard with his fingers and felt that he was overly sensitive.

In the end, I could only curse that guy a thousand times in my heart.

An ordinary person would be smashed to pieces if he fell from a great height.

But Wangwang, the fierce ant who had activated the strange transformation of the big-toothed fierce ant, would never—

His agile body flipped over in mid-air, and the large horn-like teeth on his head opened and closed violently, and the powerful airflow impact slowed down his fall.

Then, he jumped lightly and landed steadily on the ground.

At this time, the night carnival in Carnival City is still going on.

Wu Xiangwang didn't want to waste any time in this crazy and countless weird things.

He had already wasted the entire afternoon and most of the evening. His King of Kidney Deficiency and his fellow mushroom-fighting friends must still be waiting for him in the courtyard, worried about him.

He had to rush back to report that he was safe.

When he is in a hurry, he has to use the power of Mosquito's wings. He will never use the deadly hands of the Ant to do crazy jumping jacks to speed up!

After Wu Xiangwang transformed, he suddenly realized that the crystal spider silk cloak that Scallop had strangely given him seemed to be... missing???

He clearly remembered covering himself with it before he fell asleep on the roof.

Forget it, luckily there is still the last cloak given to him by Captain Weird.

While rushing quickly towards Old Czech's house, Wangwangxiannan had an inexplicable intuition that he would need to prepare more various sturdy cloaks in the future.

When Wu Xiangwang flew to the old street, he lifted the strange transformation of the Aedes albopictus. But he thought again and activated the bloodline bonus of the Bigtooth Ant.

If he ran into the antenna monster staring at him at the door, he would definitely give him a critical hit with the Ant Scissor Hands on the spot.

However, Wu Xiangwang did not see the ugly yet cute antenna-shaped eyes in front of the old Czech courtyard.

Instead, he saw the new adventurers in the courtyard with nervous expressions, fear and anger.

Something happened.

Wu Xiangwang's heart sank and he suddenly jumped off the roof.

The moment he fell into the yard, he was regarded as a target of defense by almost everyone in the yard.

"What happened?" Wu Xiangwang pulled down his hood and revealed a familiar face.

But even so, there were still people who looked at him with suspicion.

"Wangwang! When you go back, you must come to my house to get autographs for my mom, sister, and brother!" Shang Chong spoke amid everyone's vigilance.

Wu Xiangwang frowned, having already guessed a possibility.

"When did your sister change gender to become your brother?"

"So, Brother Wangwang, do you remember you said you would send my dad to the best nursing home and give him 20,000 yuan a month in pocket money?"

Wu Xiangwang rolled his eyes.

"Don't even think about 20,000. I'll give your mother 2,000 at most!"

Only after he answered two questions correctly in succession did the atmosphere in the yard relax a little.

Then, Wang Xiao looked at Wu Xiangwang carefully in everyone's expectant eyes and nodded, and everyone finally relaxed.

"Wangwang, you're finally back safely! You didn't even know that twelve people had mysteriously disappeared from the yard before you came back."

"We still haven't figured out how they disappeared, but we suspect something has infiltrated our ranks."

"Or perhaps there is some mysterious presence luring us away from the safety of the yard."

Wu Xiangwang frowned instantly.
