Chapter 1184 The Devil’s Deal



In the Kingdom of Gospel, on Highway 47 leading to Azura, a floating car with electric light is speeding on the ground. The smoking and hissing chassis fully demonstrates that its anti-gravity module has completely failed. The two lights at the rear of the car are flashing red, orange and yellow in a high-speed cycle, indicating that the car's automatic driving module has completely failed. A crazy driver is speeding at full speed by stepping on the accelerator.

A ray of light flashed across the night sky and landed on the roof of the car, turning into an extremely thin and short goblin, only 90 cm tall, wrapped in only a piece of rag, holding a spring steel spike in his hand that was longer than he was tall, which was almost like a spear to him.

He aimed at the driving seat of the car and stabbed the steel spike through the roof!

The steel spikes didn't feel like piercing flesh and blood. Instead, a straight knife stabbed out of the car and cut off half of the goblin's foot! However, the goblin didn't show any pain at all because of the broken limb. He was given a "pain blocking" miracle before he set out tonight, although as a price, all his reflex nerves would fail - most melee tacticians wandering in the underground world don't like to use pain blocking. After all, pain can be overcome, but the weakening of reflex nerves caused by the loss of pain can mean the difference between life and death in a lightning-fast confrontation.

But Goblin is one of the few close combat tacticians who does not rely on physical skills, which can be seen from his movement miracle "Rainbow Light" - as the most famous and powerful miracle of the light magic faction, Rainbow Light can make the magician turn into a beam of light and move at a very fast speed. It cannot be blocked, interrupted or harmed, but the price is that the consumption of magic power is extremely alarming. Normal use can only move short distances. The only way to reduce the consumption of Rainbow Light is to reduce the weight of the magician himself.

The normal height of a Gospel Goblin is definitely not more than 90 cm. This Goblin Light Master deliberately cut his bones and flesh, reducing his weight to the point where he would float away if the wind blew. In return, he can almost use "Rainbow Light" as a regular spell, earning the illustrious name of "Stinging Light". As for his real name, no one remembers it.

But with a weight that is not even as heavy as a child, Ci Guang is doomed to be no match for a normal magician in physical combat. He can't even control the dagger freely, after all, a little more muscle will increase the consumption of rainbow light. By the way, the size and weight of the weapon will also increase the consumption of rainbow light, which is why Ci Guang uses a unique weapon like the steel spike. His weapon is the same as his body and his style, which is extreme and desperate to leave himself no chance of survival!

It doesn’t matter if you don’t hit the target, the steel spike is not a weapon, but a medium!

Magic spirit·Iron Flower!

Under the goblin's deliberate induction, the steel spikes pierced into the car exploded into countless spikes, performing cruel torture in the unavoidable space inside the car. Although Ci Guang prefers to pierce the steel spikes into the enemy's body and then launch iron flowers, making the enemy full of bloody iron flowers from the inside out, the explosion of iron flowers in the unavoidable space inside the car and sending a cruel torture to the enemy can also slightly relieve Ci Guang's inner depression that has nowhere to vent.

The endocrine disorders caused by forced long-term dieting have already forced Ci Guang into physical depression. He has an appointment for an online consultation with the Blood Moon psychologist at 3 pm tomorrow. Now, psychological treatment once every three days can allow Ci Guang to float to the surface and take a breath from his drowning life.

No one expected that Blood Moon's biggest output for Gospel was actually psychologists. Because of the education and guidance of the Gospel system, everyone, including the magicians, knew their correct path and life direction. The invisible social pressure and the morbid pursuit of "ranking" and "status" made everyone subconsciously force themselves to work hard, living in exhaustion but not daring to say it. Therefore, when this vast market was opened to Blood Moon, the psychologists from foreign countries were immediately sought after by countless patients.

But this shitty life can end now, Ciguang thought. If the urban rumors are true, and there is really a devil in Azula who can fulfill all wishes, then as long as he completes this vote, he can leave Gospel and go to the dreamy and free Blood Moon Kingdom to enjoy happiness... He can also go to see his psychologist Annabelle. Although Ciguang has seen many good-looking goblins, he was still struck by Annabelle's purity and cuteness. The goblins of Blood Moon are better than those of Gospel.

However, Ci Guang did not hear any screams, only the sound of steel symphony collision and the vehicle drifting uncontrollably from side to side.

Was it blocked by a sword? He lowered his head and saw that the tip of the knife that had just pierced the roof of the car suddenly split open, revealing the round hole on the handle... No, it looked like...

Muzzle of a gun?

The high-explosive bullet instantly pierced through Ci Guang's head, blooming into a ball of blood that floated in the air, and then the body was also blown up by the wind, floating in the air like paper. The female orc Kaiwei, who was chasing behind with her golden and silver wings, avoided Ci Guang's body, flapped her wings to speed up, and kept approaching the speeding hovercraft!

When they were close enough, Kaiwei took out his rifle and shot at the rear fuel tank wheel. The hovercraft was a hybrid of oil and electricity, so it could also explode! However, the driver's skills were very good, and he kept drifting left and right. Kaiwei didn't cause much damage even after he emptied the magazine.

This was understandable. Although Kaiwei was a two-winged magician, orcs' fingers were not naturally good at using firearms. She didn't expect to achieve much by shooting with her rifle. She just wanted the hovercraft to dodge so that she could get closer!

Kaiwei accelerated and grabbed the roof of the car with both hands. He kicked hard with his legs and broke through the rear glass of the car and got inside! But in such a narrow space inside the car, the sharp knife light from inside made it impossible for the female orc to avoid it!

She doesn't need to avoid it!

The sharp straight knife cut through her camouflage pants and slashed on her avocado green skin, making a symphony of steel sounds - as a fist and claw master, her body is the most powerful weapon and the hardest armor!

Kaiwei propped up the roof of the car and kicked the wine-red-haired magician who was driving. Even in this posture that was not suitable for exerting force, she could easily kick the fire hydrant. More importantly, in such a narrow space, even the fist and claw magicians were not easy to use, not to mention the swordsman who needed to fight at a distance!

The sound of mechanical parts rubbing against each other erupted from the car. The wine-red-haired magician raised his right hand and actually withstood the attack from the female orc. The terrifying aftershocks completely shattered the sleeve on his right hand, revealing the silvery steel inside. It was obvious that what was blocking Kaiwei was not flesh and blood, but technology.

"'Metal Doll' Cecilia, hand over your magic spirit and I will let you go." Kaiwei growled, "No one can betray the Messenger Agency!"

"Ha," Cecilia laughed, "Would you give it to the painter if you took it? Now that you are so close to Azula, don't you want to take it to the devil to exchange for a wish?"

"Of course, the painter is right behind us, he will catch up soon!" Kaiwei directly dismantled the seat and threw it out of the car: "Now is your last chance to escape. If the painter catches up with you, do you think you can escape unscathed!?"

"If the devil can really grant wishes, then why would I need to be afraid of a mere painter?" Although she said so, Cecilia's voice became noticeably louder, and she yelled hysterically, "This is what I deserve! I will never miss this opportunity!"

"Stubborn!"

Kaiwei roared and punched with the force of thunder. Cecilia casually pulled out a sword from the sword tube and slashed at the female orc, but it could only leave a shallow red mark on the female orc's fist, and could not even break the skin!

Kaiwei punched down one after another, and Cecilia had to control the hovercraft while defending herself. She was clumsy and her hands were hit many times. Her left arm was even dented, but Cecilia remained expressionless. When the clothes on her left arm were torn, her second full-metal alloy arm was exposed!

But Seshilia knew that she was just struggling to survive. Kaiwei was a perfect magician with two wings, while she was just a silver magician who couldn't even use miracles flexibly. Kaiwei didn't even need to cast a spell. Her iron body, which had been tempered by miracles for decades, was enough to break all swords. If it weren't for the fact that the space inside the car was not good at Kaiwei's power, Seshilia wouldn't have been able to survive a few rounds in front of her!

Unlike guys like '刺光' who win by surprise, '铁拳'凯威 is one of the best fighters in the Courier Office, a flying master second only to the Painter. He had a conflict with Nabisteen's office last month and killed three golden magicians head-on!

When Cecilia found herself being caught up by Kaiwei, she knew that her chances of winning this time were slim. But she would be even more unwilling to give up!

Chaos is the ladder to rise. The unprecedented Star Supreme rules the earth. The unprecedented four kingdoms merge with the gospel. The wave of the great era submerges everyone. Countless dangers and opportunities follow one after another... and Azura's devil is the only chance that Cecilia can seize now!

At this time, Cecilia noticed that there was a railway ahead of the road, and a train was rushing towards them. Due to the spread of technology from Stars, Paradise, Abyss, and Blood Moon, countless orders were received. Now factories in various parts of Gospel were running at full capacity, and railways were running at full capacity to transport raw materials and goods, so the train was not only fully loaded but also running at full speed.

Cecilia's mind raced, and she suddenly took out a box and threw it out: "Here you go!"

凯威忍不住看了一眼,这时候瑟希里雅趁机拨动剑上的机关,将铳口瞄准凯威的脑袋!

砰!凯威瞬间反射后仰,高爆铳弹掠过女兽人扬起的脏辫,将本就风中残烛的车顶掀飞一小半。

繁星传过来的铳剑……凯威一眼就认出这种特制武器。武器总是扩散最快的领域,当繁星铳剑流入福音地下市场,第三天所有武器店就多出不同兵工厂的铳剑。但无论铳械还是剑术都需要长年累月的训练,铳剑这种特制武器会用的人不多,并没有在市场掀起波澜。

此前瑟希里雅在讯使事务所一直都是使用常规刀剑,没想到她还藏着这一手……但以为凭借这种铳术就想击败我,未免也太小看我‘铁拳’!

凯威心里冷笑,但当她抬起头,却看见瑟希里雅提着剑筒撞穿车窗跳出去。

轰!

全速狂飙的浮空车一头撞向疾驰的火车车厢,火车毫发无损,浮空车撞得翻转飞起,飞跃火车落到另外一边的山坡,轰隆一声炸成一团黑夜里的烟花。

瑟希里雅的一双钢铁长腿及时伸出刀刃插入火车车厢,刮出锋锐的火花,险之又险乘上火车。她的钢铁左手提着剑筒,金属右手攀住车顶边缘,一头酒红色的长发随风飘扬,看上去就像是一朵锋锐的金属玫瑰花。

她掏出怀里的盒子,打开盒盖,里面是一颗黯淡无光的「漆黑钻石」。漆黑钻石是最高规格的术灵封存容器,但现在躺在漆黑水晶里的,却只是一个二翼术灵。

寻日。

半个月前,阿祖拉不知从哪里传出一则都市传闻,凡是能将寻日术灵带过来阿祖拉,就可以跟魔鬼交易一个愿望。本来瑟希里雅也没在意,但连续出现几位从魔鬼获得力量的术师后,她就慢慢坐不住了。直到讯使事务所开始四处出击搜集寻日术灵,同时网络上出现许多混淆视听的谣言和辟谣,瑟希里雅便知道魔鬼不是都市传闻,是真实存在。

她将盒子收好,抬头看向前面灯火通明繁华如昼的二层都市阿祖拉。听说‘第一女巫’安楠就是从阿祖拉崛起,以不可思议的速度成就圣域踏入传奇,同时还能执掌权柄御极福音,连现在的依苏女皇也只是安楠的傀儡,无论是个人伟力还是权柄功业都到达极致……难道她当年是跟魔鬼交易过,所以才有今时今日的成就?

当瑟希里雅想入非非的时候,火车迅速驶入阿祖拉市区。本来瑟希里雅是想等到进站,但她忽然瞄到远处有人展翼飞入火车站,心中警铃大作,毫不迟疑跳下火车在地上滚了十几圈,提着剑筒往市中心狂奔!

她跑到停车场看见一辆鸦非空摩托,毫不迟疑骑上去,金属手指裂开露出里面的电磁万能钥匙,插入钥匙孔扭了好几下,在二翼术师飞过来之前成功启动摩托,引擎发出巨兽咆哮的声音,尾管喷涌烈焰,带着她呼啸一声撞穿停车场的栏杆!

“别让她跑了!”

“寻日术灵在她身上!”

“快拦住她!”

瑟希里雅骑着摩托在陌生的城市闯**,眼前全是霓虹招牌和光幕广告,却感觉自己像是行走在最凶恶危险的森林。街口、天上、公路,所有方向都像是会冒出虎视眈眈的术师,每一双行人的眼睛都仿佛在射出觊觎的目光,贪婪的呼喊声如同闹钟惊醒了这座还没沉睡的城市,串联的电波在夜空四处扩散。

她以为自己是带着钥匙进入宝库的幸运儿,但现在看来她更像是主动送入狼群的绵羊。

“交出寻日术灵!”

随着一声铳鸣,鸦非空瞬间炸成碎片。瑟希里雅抓紧剑筒飞了出去,刚站起来就看见一个精灵骑着摩托正面撞过来,他高高拉起车头,想直接用车轮碾死瑟希里雅!

瑟希里雅踏前一步,从剑筒抽出一柄直刀高高举起,纤细的身躯绷紧到极致,金属手臂冒出灼热的蒸汽,发出尖细的破音怒吼猛地斩下,圆月刀光将精灵连人带摩托一起砍成两半,混着血肉的钢铁撞向两边的店铺,撞碎临街展示的玻璃墙!

不过直刀也直接崩断了,她经过改造的金属手臂可以瞬间爆发出恐怖的力量,但刀剑可承受不了这种蛮横的对抗,因此她最想买的道具莫过于空间戒指,这样她就不用一直带着剑筒到处跑了……瑟希里雅扔掉破刀,转身跑进最近的巷道试图甩开追兵,但巷道四面八方都是喊骂声和脚步声,她已经被包围了。

这群家伙居然舍得用福音书定位……瑟希里雅现在也反应过来,漆匠不可能将她的情报传给阿祖拉的本地事务所,因此只可能是阿祖拉的术师消耗功勋,用福音书锁定所有进入阿祖拉境内的寻日术灵。

但这样做消耗功勋极多,而且未必有效,为了魔鬼的愿望,他们居然愿意先付出如此沉重的成本?

根据都市传闻,魔鬼在阿祖拉的荔湾区出没,只要到达荔湾区就能跟魔鬼交易,而自己距离荔湾区还有……

600米。

看见堵在前面小巷的术师,瑟希里雅深吸一口气,从剑筒抽出一柄直刀,**的金属双腿踩在坑坑洼洼积满污水的地面上。天空下起小雨,夏天的凉风在吹拂这座城市,许多美好的故事即将上演,美食,约会,烟花,恋爱……但那些都跟她无关。

当她双手双脚装上金属义体的时候,当幻肢痛与神经痛日夜折磨她的时候,当她用比常人羸弱的身体花费数倍努力才能踏入虚境的时候,她就注定没法过上平凡庸碌的生活。

都已经过得这么痛苦,如果还不够精彩华丽,那她的人生岂不是就是一场悲剧?

“交出来,或者死。”

钢铁双腿重重踩在污水上,酒红发的金属玩偶沉默掠过雨幕,挥舞直刀砍翻第一位挡路的术师。第二位、第三位……当她杀出小巷的时候,剑筒只剩下五柄剑,而她距离荔湾区还有550米。

小巷外的大街上,数十位术师站在一排,就像一面城墙拦在她前面,手持铳械瞄准她。

“现在阿祖拉所有寻日术灵都必须交给我们巫毒事务所。”为首的小头目说道:“老实交出来,不仅饶你一命,甚至会给你足够丰厚的回报。”

雨水流入金属手臂的缝隙,传来奇异的麻痒感。瑟希里雅强忍挠痒痒的冲动,环视一周问道:“你们这么多人,但魔鬼好像只能满足一个愿望吧?”

小头目摇摇头:“你不用挑拨离间,我们也没资格跟魔鬼交易,真正的大人物正在赶过来。你现在赶紧交出来,说不定还能获得那位阁下的赏识。”

瑟希里雅想了想,放下剑筒将盒子拿出来,特意掀开盒盖让他们看一眼里面的东西,再说道:“既然你们要听命大人物,说明你们不敢破坏寻日术灵,那么……”

“我拿寻日术灵当挡箭牌,我看你们敢不敢打上去!”

瑟希里雅用力甩动剑筒,剩余的直刀明晃晃地砸向敌阵,然后她左手拿着盒子,右手握紧直刀杀进去。巫毒事务所的人果然左支右拙,不敢射击她用盒子覆盖的要害部位,而她的双手双脚都是金属义体不怕射击,居然还真被她趁乱杀出来,钻进骑楼里面一路狂奔!

骑楼下面是街道,上面是建筑物,二翼术师的飞行优势在这种地形发挥不出来!

这附近似乎是宵夜一条街,两侧有许多正在营业的餐饮店,路人们听到铳声都慌乱起来四处逃跑,街上也有不少摆出来的桌椅,瑟希里雅在这种混乱环境如鱼得水,凭借地形数次阻击巫毒事务所,愣是没有被抓住!

400米!

350米!

300米!

瑟希里雅紧盯着小食街的尽头,就快到荔湾区了,只要到达荔湾区,她就能——

咚!

突如其来的沉重压力瞬间压垮了瑟希里雅的平衡,她像是玩偶一样重重摔在地上,姣好的脸蛋被擦破流血,但四肢的神经连接节点传来的剧痛更是让瑟希里雅额头汗如雨下,浑身颤抖。

一位衣着得体举止优雅的金发中年人从天空落下来,巫毒事务所的小头目迅速跑过来,恭敬说道:“抱歉,格里高利阁下,属下办事不力,居然劳动你亲自出手……”

金发中年人瞥了一眼瑟希里雅,微微皱眉:“你们连一位白银术师都拿不下,看来我平时对你们还是太宽松了。回去你们自领三十下鞭刑,不许治疗。”

“是。”小头目低下头。

此时瑟希里雅终于认出金发中年人是谁——‘君王’格里高利,最近半年声名鹊起的土术术师,以重力立场奇迹闻名福音,号称无人不跪无人不低头,而且他还是……

圣域术师!

“为什么?”

格里高利眉毛一扬,低头看向被压在地上痛得声音打颤的金属玩偶。

"You are already a Sanctuary Magician, why are you still trying to steal my things?" I couldn't tell if it was rain, sweat, or tears running down Cecilia's face. "You already... have everything you want."

Gregory chuckled, then burst into laughter again, shaking his head and saying, "A sanctuary magician is not as noble as you think. I can't have whatever I want. At least I haven't seen the devil yet."

"Besides, even I am attracted by the power of the devil." He murmured softly: "Maybe it is some kind of virtual facility that has drifted to the human world... If I can catch the devil..."

"Then go find the Sun Spirit yourself!" Cecilia bit her lower lip and struggled to get up: "Why did you steal my things!"

Gregory pressed down lightly with his fingers, and immediately even greater gravity pressed down on Cecilia, and the metal limbs creaked under the heavy weight.

"Because you don't deserve it." He said slowly, "How can you, a piece of trash like underground mud, deserve such an opportunity?"

"All the Sun Seekers who enter Azula belong to me, Gregory. Only I am qualified to make deals with the devil! You arrogant people who think you can change your life overnight deserve to be my sacrifice!"

Cecilia said nothing and silently endured Gregory's humiliation. She thought she had escaped from the pursuit of the Messenger Agency and seized her own opportunity in the tide of the great era, but she never thought that she was still making wedding clothes for others. She tried again and again to get rid of her identity as a weak person and to control her own destiny, but she became an exploited weak person again and again.

With her face pressed against the cold ground, the pain in her neurons and internal organs spread throughout her body. She was unable to move and suffered in every way. Cecilia felt like she was really mud in the ground. In her tear-blurred vision, she vaguely saw that there seemed to be people sitting in the shop opposite. At this time, a sorcerer from a voodoo office came over and cursed, "What are you eating? Get out of here!"

"I'm eating beef brisket and fried sauce noodles." The young man replied, "I haven't finished yet."
