A killing, or a coronation.
Looking down, there are silver apprentices floating in the sea of fog, golden travelers walking in the rainy continent, and rainbow explorers sandwiched in the cracks of illusion... They are humble creatures, they can only raise their heads and look up at the great cause, their eyes are like twinkling stars, paving the way for the glory of this coronation.
Looking up, there were proud gods hiding in the shadows. They were disdainful, jealous, full of malice, and murderous, but they could only watch. Above the shadows were five great beings standing in the clouds. They lowered their gazes and turned into a violent storm, catering to the cruelty and ruthlessness of this killing.
Everyone's eyes were focused on the top of Ruby Mountain. The figure that Igula was very familiar with was standing on the other side of the mountain. Because his back was facing away from him, Igula could not see his expression or who was in front of him. He could only vaguely see the outline of a light and shadow.
At this point, Igula was no longer surprised by Ash's surfing the tide of the times, but he was not bored either, and only had strong expectations in his heart. Because he vaguely realized that this scene was not the end of the disaster, but the beginning of greatness.
When Ash raised his sword and slashed at the light and shadow, the entire virtual world seemed to be drawn by him. He was like wielding a paintbrush, painting the world with his own colors.
From the magicians to the gods, everyone could only watch his atrocities, watching him paint light and shadow into new colors. Then, like a drop of thick ink falling into a painting, the new color quickly spread, infiltrating the colorful airspace, the golden continent, the silver sea, and invading the shadows and clouds upwards.
Time is starting to speed up.
The most eye-catching thing is that above the clouds, in that high sky that even great beings must look up to, at that empty and unknown top, new colors are brewing and condensing.
All magicians are witnessing this historic moment with their own eyes. The era that has lasted for 1668 years ends at this moment, and the whole world will undergo drastic changes as a result.
Times are beginning to change, and the positions of the new and the old are about to take their place.
This is a killing that magicians must remember, and this is a coronation that the Void Realm proactively holds.
Iguala seemed to be able to hear the sound of the wheel of history rolling forward, and the wind of the times blowing the windmill.
From now on, the unbearable vacancy of the Throne of Heaven will come to an end, and someone will stand at the top.
At this time, Igula saw Ash take out a holy grail soaked in wine from the last light and shadow, then he turned his head towards him, raised the holy grail and gestured slightly, then raised his head, tilted the holy grail, and was about to drink the holy grail in one gulp, completing the last step of the ritual of coronation and killing -
What happens next?
…
Knock knock!
The knock on the door woke Igula up. He raised his head suddenly and found that he had fallen asleep sitting on the toilet, with his head resting on Ash's waist; in front of him, Harvey was resting with his eyes closed next to the sink.
Ash held the Trickster's head with one hand and placed his other hand behind Harvey to support the back of his head to prevent them from falling down due to grogginess.
Knock knock!
A female voice sounded outside, "Is the guest inside okay? Do you need any help? Hello?"
Igula asked, "How long has it been?"
"45 minutes." Ash replied.
"That should be fine," Igula stood up: "Let's go."
The three men opened the sliding door of the restroom and went out. The female flight attendant was stunned when she saw the three men coming out of the restroom together. She stammered, "Guests, three guests, what are you doing in there?"
"Just as you thought." Ash replied.
The flight attendant's face gradually turned red, and her eyes kept scanning between the three people. "But, but what you are doing is against the rules, and the bathroom is so small that it is easy to bump into things, please don't..."
"I know, but I can't help it because I'm craving for cigarettes. I have no choice but to smoke in the bathroom." Ash spread his hands, "I'm very sorry for causing trouble to you."
"Oh, are you smoking?"
"Yeah, what else could it be?"
The female attendant didn't know whether she was disappointed or relieved. "Smoking is prohibited in the carriage. We still have two hours to get to Jialeshi South Station. Please be patient until you get off the train. Also, you are not allowed to smoke in the restroom, as it will trigger the smoke alarm."
"Understood, understood. We also know our mistake, so there's no smoke or mirrors." Ash clasped his hands together, "Thank you for your understanding."
"Then please return to your compartment. I need to clean the restroom a bit." The female attendant said, "Because there will be children using the restroom, I need to make sure there is no strange smell or dirt in it."
Ash was full of confidence, "Don't worry, we didn't leak anything, and we washed it away. We are very clean--"
"Let's go."
After they left, the female flight attendant went into the restroom and breathed hard, focusing on checking the trash can, but did not find anything unusual. But this was already abnormal - there was not even a cigarette butt or ashes, so she was trying to trick Lala into believing she was fat!
Then she looked carefully and outlined the scene in the bathroom just now through the marks on her palm: there was a person sitting on the toilet, a person next to the sink, and a third person standing between the two...Wow!
…
…
Ash and the other two randomly chose a corner of the carriage where there were fewer people and sat down. Igula, who was sitting by the window, opened the curtains and observed the movements behind the locomotive under the starry sky. "They probably haven't caught up with us. They must still think we are hiding in that forest."
"Yeah, interesting." Harvey said, "It seems like this is the first time we have successfully escaped. It's a bit hard to get used to it."
"Indeed." Ash said, "It has been 24 hours since I came to the Starry Kingdom, and I still have the right to go to the bathroom freely, and my personal freedom is not even restricted. I feel that it goes against my professional ethics."
"If you want, I can give you a dog chain with an electric shock function. If you want to add a tail, that's fine too. You're welcome." Igula said coldly, "What kind of profession requires the quality of "being arrested every time you arrive in a new country"? We are still wanted, so you guys should be serious!"
This time of traveling is different from all the previous ones.
When they first arrived at the Kingdom of Gospel, they were knocked unconscious and taken away by An Nan who was lying in ambush, and they had no power to resist at all; when they first arrived at the Kingdom of Senluo, they appeared at the base camp of the Holy Fire Temple, and they could not escape, and were forced to become the last straw that broke the camel's back for the Holy Fire Temple.
But this time, after Ash and his companions traveled to the stars, they were neither ambushed nor in someone else's sphere of influence, but came to a deserted wilderness. This treatment is not really that good, it can only be considered 0 points, but the problem is that Ash and his companions' previous travels were all at the level of "hell" and "becoming a fat man and then entering hell". Now fate just whipped them a little less, which is enough for Ash and his companions to be grateful.
But the thanksgiving session only lasted 30 minutes, and the magician troops riding griffins appeared in front of them. At that time, Yaxiu was cooking, and his frying pan and stove were directly overturned by the miracle of thunder magic, but he did not feel angry at all, but relieved.
This is the right taste!
How is it possible that there is no escape plot triggered after traveling through time!
It's like hearing a boot falling upstairs, and now another boot falls too, and I can finally feel at ease!
