Chapter 73: Chronicle of the Fall of Gods 16
[Continue what he said and see what he has to say]
Normally, Chu Cheng cannot descend to the heavens in Ferog and contact Ferog's apostles in his mind. After all, it is not his territory. But since Bing Keke can inform him about Ferog, Chu Cheng estimated that Ya should be able to sense him.
Sure enough, Ya quickly turned around and asked Akappon to continue speaking as Chu Cheng said. Akappon took a deep breath and took off his high-necked shirt, which was obviously expensive, revealing two scabbed blood holes on his neck.
Then Akappon lifted his lips again, revealing two sharp fangs. The knowledgeable apostles could not be unaware of what this meant. But they couldn't understand how Akapone, who had exposed all this, had the confidence to get such a group of people to sit down and listen to him.
Among them, only Crow remained low-key. After looking around, he arranged for the apostles present to leave in groups of three or two. In the end, only Akapone and Crow were left in the empty palace, plus a transparent man named Chu Cheng who turned into mist and floated in the air.
Akapone was not as smooth and unfazed as Chu Cheng had seen him in the new century. The apostles who were obviously sent away and the silent Crow made Akapone feel uneasy. He couldn't help but subconsciously rub his scabby neck with his fingers. The pain of the blood scabs being slightly torn and bleeding gave him some comfort of survival.
Crow did not speak, but walked to the other end of the room and lit a candle on the long table. The only light in the dim room was lit, illuminating the faces of the two people.
"Go ahead."
Of course, Akappone would not hand over the information he wanted to exchange so easily. He forced a pale smile, trying to make his expression look calmer. But Crow just glanced at him and did not speak. He was waiting for Chu Cheng's instructions.
[You asked him: Don't you want to save her?]
Crow paused for two seconds after hearing this, and met Akappone's eyes that were no different from dead water.
"You don't want to save her?"
After these words came out, Akappone's already shaky expression could no longer be maintained. Crow's light words shattered the man. He took two deep breaths, but his voice was still trembling.
"I...you...you know everything..."
Hearing this, Chu Cheng suddenly remembered what Black Eagle said, 'Piantiao knows a lot of things, he has been with the goddess Siye for a long time.'
If Crow and Piantiao are the same person, can it also explain the source of some of Piantiao's information? Soon Chu Cheng put his attention back on Akapone. Akapone was easily shattered by Crow's words, and it seemed that he was no longer able to cover up. The change
of race and the separation of time from his lover's life have tortured this man to exhaustion, and he didn't have the energy to hide anything. Now, this conversation has become truly frank and open.
Akapone made his request directly.
"Since you know everything, I won't beat around the bush... I hope to ask Lady Avro to save my love. Her physique is not suitable for transformation. If she is forced to transform, she will not live to see the transformation. I hope Lady Goddess Siye can save her."
Crow heard such a tearful and heartbreaking confession of true feelings but did not show any sympathy. It is better to say that there should be no expression on his face. He glanced at Akapone coldly and remained silent. Chu Cheng knew that he was waiting for his orders, but Chu Cheng did not want to move on so quickly. Although he had known that Pence wanted to rebel, he did not expect that he had existed so early.
This involved another person - Black Hawk, but Black Hawk could be put aside for the time being, but Chu Cheng did not want to let Akapone go. First, he really didn't care about Acapone's life or death. Second, he was indeed a vengeful person. The feud between him and Acapone could not be resolved by dying once. After all, Acapone had caused his death many times in a sense.
But Chu Cheng didn't like this description, as if the two of them were a pair of miserable lovers who had been entangled for a long time. This made Chu Cheng feel sick and wanted to vomit. He wished to waste Acapone's soul forever.
[Chat, no rush]
Crow followed Chu Cheng's idea and started to deal with Acapone. This was not difficult for him. In fact, Crow didn't even need any conversation skills. His face, which looked like a piece of wood and had no desires, was already very scary.
Akapone certainly wouldn't be scared of such a thing, but Chu Cheng knew what he was worried about. Crow's lack of desires means that there is no choice to please, and the lack of interest exchange is the most terrifying, so Akapone must firmly grasp the secret in his hand, the secret about Afro, which is the only way to link him with Ferrog.
"Neropo... Lord... He"
Chu Cheng did not ignore Akapone's suspicious hesitation, as if because Crow was here, he needed to maintain due respect for Chu Cheng. But why? Chu Cheng is also a powerful god who makes the goddess of fate feel a little tricky, isn't he?
Chu Cheng was in the air, flying around Akapone when he was unconscious, searching if there might be something wrong with him. No, could it be that Akapone simply thought that the God of Nature was not worthy of respect?
Crow was naturally on Chu Cheng's side, and he asked Chu Cheng the question that Chu Cheng was confused about.
"From your appearance, it seems that you are very disrespectful to Lord Nerobo."
Akapone was strangely silent for a while. He did not continue to answer Crow's question, but stiffly changed the subject, appearing a little anxious and flustered.
"Instead of talking about this... let's get back to our topic. You, Lady Night Goddess, can you extend my love's life without the need for transformation?"
"If you just want to extend your life, there are many ways, magic potions, supernatural powers, you can do it."
Akapone seemed to be irritated by Crow's constant Tai Chi. He took a few deep breaths, and his eyeballs bulged so much that every red bloodshot was clearly visible. He pressed his hands tightly against his trouser lines, wanting to grab Crow's collar and punch him, but in the end he could only clench his hands, letting his nails sink deeply into the whitened fingertips, stained with blood.
"I want her to live safely and for a long time."
[Promise him to give his lover eternal night]
In fact, the promise at this time is no different from drawing a big cake. Although Afro does have the ability to give believers eternal night, that is, to be accompanied by the night forever and gain a long, long life, the price is obvious. At the same time, even if Acapone accepted this proposal, it would not happen. Chu Cheng couldn't dig Afro out of the ground to bless Acapone.
The most important thing is that in the future plot, at this time period, Acapone's lover should have transformed and died long ago, and he would only face his lover's corpse when he returned.
After getting Crow's promise, Acapone was obviously relieved and no longer as tense as when he first entered the room. He was even more difficult to provoke after relaxing, because he had time to start thinking. Fortunately, as a veteran in the New Century, he was played to death by Chu Cheng, and now he is not qualified to come to the table.
"Show your sincerity, Mr. Acapone."
Acapone loosened the nail that had been embedded in his finger for too long, but his vampire physique allowed him to quickly recover and heal the wound. In the blink of an eye, it turned into a flesh-pink thin line, and disappeared when he looked again.
"Dear Apostle, at least, you have to let my lover come to Ferrog, so that I can hand over my secrets with confidence. Otherwise, if I die on the way, wouldn't it be a great loss?"
Akapone's obvious calculation and aggressive attitude did not make Crow show anger. He still had a dead face, and no joy, anger, sorrow or happiness could be seen. But Chu Cheng didn't want to waste time talking to him. The longer he stayed at each time node, the more unsafe he was. He didn't have time to argue with him. Or, Chu Cheng felt bored.
So Chu Cheng wrapped Akapone in the form of water vapor without hesitation, and the freezing cold quickly spread from Akapone's insides. It's hard to describe what it feels like, I just feel cold and numb, every breath brings out ice from my lungs, punctures my trachea, freezes my internal organs, and even makes my soul tremble.
[Ask]
Crow carried out Chu Cheng's order without hesitation.
"Show your sincerity, Mr. Akapone, otherwise I can't make a request to Lord Afro."
Akapone's lips were frozen to purple, and his face was obviously bloodshot, but he still bit his lips and refused to utter a word. Chu Cheng re-evaluated the relationship between Akapone and his lover, and then he thought of a threat that could be called somewhat vicious.
"If Lord Avro grants you eternal night, and your betrayal to the enemy is exposed, the God of Daylight grants your lover eternal day..."
"No!!!!"
Akappon anxiously interrupted Crow before he could finish. The ice was not enough to pry open his mouth, but the imagined separation from his lover made him waver without hesitation. Or rather, he didn't dare to imagine the pain of separation from his lover.
"..I said...the God of the Sky..."
Crow didn't urge him, just stared at Akappon stiffly, like a stone stake, until Akappon dropped his arms and head like a deflated balloon, and the last ring that he had kept in his heart and could never fasten was finally closed.
"The Sky God is a part of the Goddess of Destiny."
Akapone raised his head and stared into the void, as if he saw the city of Chu floating in the air, and said this somewhat hair-raising truth word by word.
"The Sky God is a creation of God, created against common sense, and should not be believed in, a false god."
