After the Lord of the Abyss awakens

Chapter 49

Marbas was confused and turned around and said: "What impostor? Samikina, are you crazy too? Impos found an impostor to claim to be the Lord of the Abyss. I want to catch him and teach him a lesson!"

Samikina's expression remained unchanged, but his eyes became colder.

Marbas didn't know why. In his impression, Samikina had always been fair, so how could he allow Impos to be so pretentious and deceitful.

Could it be... Samikina, you have changed!

However, before he could react, the surrounding space suddenly distorted. When Malbus opened his eyes again, he saw a blazing continent beneath his feet.

Fires were burning everywhere, and fire tongues like beasts were constantly erupting from the cracks in the earth.

Malbus was confused, clenched his fists, and stared at Samikina.

"Are you going to fight me over this?"

He came up with a bad temper, and the golden light around him was bright, almost lighting up the entire space.

Samikina didn't answer.

Half an hour later.

Marbus rises, Marbus falls down.

He was taught a lesson and became even angrier. He stared at Samikina and said, "Why are you targeting me! Is it because Impos is smaller, so you are partial to Him?"

Hearing this, the young man landed on the red-fire ground, ignored the flames and walked a few steps, staring into those angry eyes, "Don't you know you were wrong?"

Marbus insisted: "I was not wrong!"

Samikina stretched out his hand, hit Malbus on the head from a distance, and said sternly: "That's not a fake, that's the real father."

"What!"

Malba's pupils trembled and he was almost shaken, then he shook his head and hummed, "Because Persia can't hide it, you want to mistake the fake for the real? Impossible!"

Samikina said calmly: "It's true."

All the air was silent, leaving only the crackling sound of tongues of fire.

Malba's eyes widened and his voice trembled as he said, "Is it...really?"

"real."

"..."

The two demons looked at each other in silence.

ah? !

Marbas couldn't believe it. Could it be that He had always regarded his true father as a fake? Are you always cursing at your father?

Why am I so damned!

Malba's mind went blank for a moment, then he suddenly came to life and stood up. He rushed forward and asked urgently: "Where is father?"

Samikina stared at Him and took a breath before saying: "Before you see your father, you need to know these things..."

The fire burned the earth and destroyed all living things, but they communicated as if nothing had happened.

Half an hour later, Malbus was stunned and murmured: "Ah, actually..."

His eyes changed, and he didn't know what he was thinking. He suddenly became angry and wiped away tears wildly.

"Father...have you been thinking about us?"

"Um."

"Does father still remember me?"

"We have not been forgotten for a moment."

"Well..."

Marbus buried his head in tears without any image, and couldn't even speak clearly at the end.

It’s real, not a fake, it’s the real father who’s back, great, great!

He turns his anger into joy, great joy!

Almost at the same time.

Hughes noticed that Samikina, who had just returned, was missing.

Where did this go?

Just as he was about to look for the child, the little puppet ran back and jumped into his arms with one or two jumps.

Hughes was a little surprised and hadn't asked yet.

The little puppet said it first, Samikina and Imposs will go back to check the store first!

Houston was shocked, "Do they know how to get back?"

The little puppets were super confident and said, of course they can. Even though they are like this, each of them is quite capable. It is just a trivial matter in the human world!

Seeing how confident he was, Hughes thought about it. His children would be safe in the abyss. They had just come to the human world and they should be able to adapt completely.

And...Sius believed in Samikina.

Samikina is a steady child and will not do anything risky. He went back early just to see the nest.

You don't have to worry too much.

However, when he turned around and looked, the clock showed that it was already 7:30 pm.

He had to go back quickly. He didn't know if there was any food sold on the road at this time. He wanted to buy something for the children.

As a hero himself, his body was shaped by magic and he did not need to eat, causing him to almost forget the taste of food.

Thinking of this, Hughes missed Lelagin a little.

His Zaizai is multi-talented.

Lelagin is brave and witty in battle, has superb archery skills, and is always on target. In life, he is good at cooking. He is a gourmet of the abyss at a young age.

I just don’t know if cooking skills have gotten better in the past 8,000 years or so.

I miss you so much. Hughes still remembered that when Lela King Kong was created, he was still a green cub. He could not stand up and could only crawl around. His eyes seemed to be congenitally deficient and he was always squinting to see things.

The abyss is full of darkness, and Lelakin is afraid of the dark, as if he was born with night blindness.

The abyss was hell to Lelakin.

He was worried about this. He tried many times but could not change the setting. He could only personally guide Lelagin step by step to get used to the darkness and learn to perceive things in the dark instead of seeing with his "eyes".

Lelakin didn't adapt at first. He was always trembling with fear and didn't dare to go into the darkness.

But one day later, He seemed to have overcome the fear in his heart, no longer afraid of the darkness, and even actively walked into it, making the darkness fearful instead.

Hughes still remembers that something happened to him that day.

In fact, it wasn't a big deal, it was just that the troll on the opposite side exploded before death, and his magic power flew everywhere, hurting him a little.

It's a small injury. It was just a cut on the arm.

He didn't react, but the children were very nervous, especially Lelakin, who was closest to him. His green eyes trembled as he looked at him, as if he was about to cry.

He didn't know what happened to the troll later. He only knew that the children were very angry that day. For the first time, they kept silent and stared at him to protect him. They were so serious that he thought they had grown up.

Also, Hughes recalled that Baal rarely used his power that day. Thunder rumbled in places he couldn't see all night, and the earth was shaking, as if it was dominated by the child's anger.

The next day, Lelakin said he was no longer afraid of the dark, and there was nothing to be afraid of in the dark.

When he spoke, he always squinted his eyes without showing his pupils, but he opened his eyes wide.

That was also the first time Hughes saw Lelakin's eyes clearly.

Like a lake in the deep forest, clear and beautiful, ethereal and quiet.

Inexplicably, he thought of the elves.

"..."

Xius fell into memories and was silent for a few seconds. He couldn't help asking, "Buyer, do you know about Lelakin's situation?"

The little puppet's pupils trembled slightly. I don't know what he thought of. His mouth opened slightly, but he pursed it again. In the end, he didn't say anything and shook his head to indicate that he didn't know.

Xius was worried and continued to ask, "You scattered later, so you rarely get together?"

The little puppet blinked.

According to Eliorg, they were scattered in the abyss and couldn't find each other. Basically, they didn't know where other compatriots were doing.

However, more than 8,000 years is too long. Even if the abyss is vast and boundless, they have so many cubs. It's unlikely that they haven't met for so long.

Buyer hesitated.

To be precise, after their father disappeared, they still gathered together for a long time. They didn't have a good relationship and often had conflicts. After their father was gone, the conflicts became more and more intense, but the abyss was so dangerous, and the principle that unity is strength is not wrong.

They worked together to occupy the territory of the Abyss, expanding it step by step, becoming stronger and stronger on the road of leveling, and finally successfully defeated the God of the Abyss, which meant that they gained the power to enter and exit the Abyss freely, as well as the power to control all the rules of the Abyss.

The first thing they did was of course to use the power of the God of the Abyss to find their father.

However, they searched thousands of times but couldn't find him.

That day, they were silent for a long time, so they began to suspect that their father was not in the Abyss at all, and they should look for him outside.

And it was here that they had disagreements and conflicts.

The center of the conflict was exactly-they were already strong enough, why did they have to endure their temper and be with the annoying guy?

They could have found their father on their own, right?

That day, they discussed for a long time and quarreled many times, and the final result was that they dispersed and went to the vast world to find their father separately.

Isn't this more efficient?

Moreover, at that time, even the weakest of their compatriots had the power of gods, so what was there to be afraid of? In that twilight world where a large number of powerful gods fell, did they need to worry so much? If they want to fight, then fight. What's there to say?

Let's disperse!

Of course, they will disperse, but they will not never see each other.

Compatriots with good relations will even join forces to cause trouble.

They also have a family meeting held every hundred years. As the name suggests, all family members must come to the meeting. Those who don't come will be caught by Baal himself.

The content of the meeting is very simple, just to exchange information about how they are looking for their father, whether there are any breakthroughs, etc.

At the beginning, of course, all members were present at the meeting. After all, Baal really knows how to catch demons.

But later... even Baal and Agares were absent. How can the meeting continue?

This tradition continues, but more and more people have been absent over the years, and there is no binding force. In addition, they often sleep and forget the time, so of course they get together less and less.

Speaking of which...

Buyer suddenly stopped, because

He remembered that the next family meeting...isn't it next month?

He looked like he was wandering, which made Xius think.

The little puppet may have realized that he was thinking too far, and quickly reacted and meowed, indicating that they would meet occasionally.

I don’t know if Xiu Si saw anything, and said lightly: "No matter what, you should get along well with your compatriots."

The little puppet nodded, looking obedient and well-behaved.

At this moment, Xiu Si suddenly slowed down, finally stopped, and turned to look at the research room next door.

Because it was night, many magicians had gone home, and this research room was empty.

This seemed to be a public magic laboratory?

Xiu Si was curious and stood at the door to observe.

The configuration of the magic laboratory is similar, basically a bunch of magic instruments, surrounded by several round tables in the middle.

The table is usually arranged with magic mirrors that are easy to clean, for magicians to draw magic circles and various arrangements.

In addition, it does not require you to inject magic power yourself. As long as you operate it slightly, it will automatically inject magic power and operate the magic circle, saving the magician a lot of work. At the same time, it is also convenient for universal verification.

From the position and angle of Xiu Si, he could just see the magic circle inside.

He was curious and walked in.

The magic equipment here was much more advanced and complex than that of the Os Empire. It was said that the mechanics here were more skilled.

Hughes didn't understand machinery, but he could understand their complexity. Because they are so visible to the naked eye, their differences can be seen from their appearance.

He stopped to take a few more glances, turned around and walked to the magic circle, observing carefully.

He was very familiar with the magic circle on the circular surface, and he could almost tell it at a glance. It was the movement technique that he had studied for several days. But it is different from the standard movement magic circle. It lacks some structure and is less complex. It is actually... a simplified version.

Hughes was a little surprised. He thought he was the only one who could study the simplification of movement skills, but he didn't expect it to be found in a random laboratory.

Isn't it really a special idea?

Hughes nodded silently, and he had the right idea. He could think of an idea, so how could others not think of it. The Oedipus Empire is doing relevant basic research in ordinary magic laboratories.

"but……"

Hughes took a closer look and found that the magic circle was wrong and could not operate at all. If he tried to inject magic, it would collapse within a few seconds. To use an analogy, it was like a tripod that was originally supported by three legs, but one leg was pulled out. , the direction of simplification is obviously wrong.

And it seems that this magic circle is about to be wiped off, and there are traces of wiping on the lower right position.

Hughes was silent for a while, then unconsciously suffered from obsessive-compulsive disorder. He picked up the chalk at hand and drew on it.

The little puppet didn't know if he understood what he was drawing, but he looked at it with interest, his blue eyes sparkling and his little paws dancing.

A few minutes later, Hughes finished the simple drawing, observed it for a while, and injected magic power to make sure it was running successfully.

Realizing that he had modified someone else's magic circle without authorization, he felt embarrassed and picked up the eraser board to erase it and draw it back to someone else.

But the little puppet suddenly meowed, as if to say it was okay, and it would be erased anyway.

Hughes put down the erasing board. In fact, he didn't remember how he drew it just now. He couldn't restore it to others. Since it was originally intended to be erased, it shouldn't matter, right?

?Hui Yutian’s work is first updated, the domain name [

He turned his head and looked outside and found that the sky was getting darker and darker, and it was time to go home.

At night, the monsters in the subspace will become active. Even if you are in a big empire and your safety is guaranteed, you still need to be careful.

And I heard someone say...the Lord of the Abyss often comes to Oedipus Empire recently?

Hughes was silent for a while, realizing that he paid too little attention to these news. Everyone acted like they were doing whatever they were supposed to do, which meant it wasn't a big deal.

He thought for a while, then went back with the little puppet in his arms.

Hughes's requirement for himself is that when his strength is insufficient, he should not consider too ambitious things, so as not to increase worries and pressure. As an ordinary person under the current of the times, just level up in an ordinary way, and do whatever level you have the strength to do.

He took the little stuffed doll home and prepared to find something to eat, but most of the shops on the road were closed. It seemed that no matter what, he had to be careful in the past few days to prevent being involved in the conflict between the abyss monarchs.

Hughes looked into the distance, wondering why there was an Abyss Lord wherever he went? Is it just my luck, or just too much self-awareness?

He shook his head and said silently to himself: "How is that possible?"

before he comes back.

Samikina took Malbus to the door of the bookstore and explained that this was their temporary residence.

Malbus was stunned and looked at the bookstore carefully.

Then a very crucial question was asked.

"Why a bookstore."

Samikina didn't respond.

At this time, Impos on the opposite side was in a complicated mood, and wanted to say that the fourth brother was there to persuade Malbus to retreat. Unexpectedly, not only did he not persuade Marbus to retreat, but he also recruited Marbus.

His fifth brother Malbus... has a very restless personality.

I saw that Malbus asked the fatal question again, "Do you mean you have no money?"

Yinbosi complained in his heart, compared to you, of course you have no money!

"You're going to let father live in a place like this?"

Malba's eyes were filled with contempt.

He thought to himself, His father, Marbas, should live in the most luxurious, beautiful, splendid and gleaming palace in the world. How could he condescend to live in a busy city and in an ordinary bookstore?

Before the other demons said anything, Malbus stepped into the bookstore. He thought that the bookstore was just a disguise, but in fact it contained the universe. However, when he went in and took a look, it was the same!

This is an ordinary bookstore, and the books in it are all normal books!

Malbus was about to collapse and shouted: "How can you let your father live in such an ordinary place!"

Samikina didn't know anything about this matter, so he turned to look at Imposs.

Instead, Yinbosi showed an expression of "you don't know this", frowned, and said matter-of-factly: "Of course it is to make father less suspicious."

Samikina paused and had no comment.

Marbas immediately said: "You are stupid. We have lived for more than 8,000 years and have not saved any money for such a long time. Do you think this is reasonable? Even if we are exposed

It is reasonable to make a large sum of money! "

Impos choked.

Marbas said confidently: "Pigs can become sperm after living for more than 8,000 years! What's wrong with occupying several mountains of gold and silver?"

His tone was so natural and inexplicably convincing.

Upon hearing this, Impos seemed a little shaken and hesitated: "This..."

Malbus pointed at the door of the bookstore and said: "Even if we want to open a bookstore, it must be the world's largest bookstore made of gold!"

ah! No, how much do you like gold? Look at your shining gold. Is it possible to explode gold coins with just one punch?

Imposs couldn't help complaining in his heart, but he didn't dare to say it out loud, because Marbas was a violent demon and would really beat him.

Yinbosi is very confident in his magic, but the key to victory or defeat among his compatriots is more in [melee combat], and the strength of magic has little effect.

Because each of them has a huge magic immunity, it is very difficult to break their defense with magic!

Although they are all at full level, the values between full level and full level are different.

Because Persia is relatively weak in physical combat, his power is [Learning], but this power is more focused on mental learning rather than the acquisition of combat experience.

Experience comes from experience and does not require learning.

Just then.

Fortunately Samikina finally spoke.

He actually looked at Malbus and analyzed seriously: "Isn't this bad? It's too eye-catching and my father won't like it."

"W-what did you say?!"

Malbus paused for a moment, then put his chin on his head and thought about whether his father liked it or not.

He likes gold, does the Father like it?

Their father has a gentle personality, has no desires, is a good old man who loves to take care of others, is solid and stable in leveling, and lives an ordinary life.

Building a golden bookstore that attracts attention... will cause trouble to the father.

So, this small bookstore is the right answer?

Malbus stared at the bookstore, but he didn't want to admit it. He had gold and silver, so how could he not let his father enjoy the blessing?

Just as he was brainstorming crazily, Samikina suddenly patted him on the shoulder and said, "Father is coming back. Let's think about it later."

"……good."

Marbus, a fiery demon, only listened to Agares and Samikina.

The reason is nothing more than the psychological shadow of these two demons. Agares blasted his brain with knowledge, so that every time he listened to Agares' words, it was like listening to hundreds of monks chanting sutras. Even if it was an ordinary sentence or word, he just heard Agares' voice. , He will be unable to hold back and have a splitting headache.

Not to mention the educational pervert Samikina, whose later Spartan level was even worse than Barr's.

In comparison, He, Marbasto, is a normal demon. My father has one of him, which is better than the other twenty-three combined!

The more Malbus thought about it, the happier he became, his lip lines rose crazily, and his whole body began to sparkle with gold again.

"..."

Samikina didn't break Malbus's self-absorption. Don’t understand, but respect. The core of education lies in respect.

Just can you stop being so flashy? Dazzling eyes.

Most of the time, they will deliberately create some cognitive barriers and pass through

Passers-by can recognize them and recognize their looks, but they will never think that they are the Lords of the Abyss.

Not to hide, but to avoid necessary trouble.

Therefore, even though they were talking like this while standing in front of the bookstore, not many people recognized them as the Abyss Monarchs. They just thought...how could there be two such good-looking men.

What do they do in the bookstore? Is he a friend of the store manager?

Ten minutes later, Hughes walked back to the door of the bookstore. He had just put down the little ragdoll cat and saw a golden section of light cast on the ground.

It's not natural light. The oil lamp is not that bright. It looks like... a pure gold night pearl?

Just as he thought about it, a shiny little golden cat suddenly ran out of the door.

It was so dark outside, but His appearance lit up the entire alley. Every hair on His head was shining and it looked absolutely dazzling!

It's actually a short-haired golden gradient!

"Meow meow!"

The little guy rushed over excitedly.

Hughes recognized the little guy at a glance. Wasn't it his favorite golden Malbus?

He caught the little guy who jumped up, held his hair, and said happily: "Today is such a good day, I found you and Samikina at the same time."

The golden cat nuzzled his favorite father excitedly. He was a little unhappy when he heard the names of other cubs, but he finally met his father!

"How did you find this place? I found that you searched more than I did."

Hughes came home with the golden cat in his arms, beaming with joy and talking a lot.

Marbas was so happy, thinking about his father and his father.

It's real, not fake, not a fake!

Ah ah ah how could I misunderstand my father and fail to recognize my great father!

After being put on the table, Malbus beat his chest, learned from the pain, and regretted it!

However, before he could chat with his father, other cats also climbed up.

He almost screamed, won't you guys give me some space to be alone together again!

Impos snorted, you stupid fifth brother, you didn't even recognize your father, you said your father was a fake, why are you asking?

Malba choked, because he didn't see himself.

Because Persia is even colder, you doubt my feelings towards my father. How could I find a counterfeit to replace my father!

The little puppet smacked his tongue: "The stupid fifth brother should be beaten to the point of breaking the gold coins!"

Malba said to himself, "Good guys, none of them give me face." But He was indeed wrong about this matter. Even if it was a misunderstanding, He was indeed too outrageous! How could you make a judgment before even seeing it?

Thinking of this, Malba's eyes darkened, and he thought it might be because he had been disappointed too much over the years, so he subconsciously ruled out that possibility.

But fortunately, my father was found anyway!

Seeing His excitement, Samikina patted the golden cat on the head and reminded: "I know you are happy, but pay attention to the light."

Malbus suddenly discovered that the entire bookstore was illuminated by Him. What should I do if it flashes into my father’s eyes!

Hughes didn't notice their dark clouds, but he just asked more questions than before.

How did they escape from the abyss? Are they basically in the abyss?

In other words, these questions asked Him

They were frightened and finally managed to fool them.

Because Bos wants to call him Eliog, none of them left behind can speak well.

Fortunately, Hughes' Zaizai filter is also extremely thick, and it doesn't take a few words to believe it.

In fact, Hughes was not doubting them, but worried that they were hiding something from him. For example, he actually suffered a lot in the abyss but refused to tell them.

"Is it really nothing?"

"Are all the compatriots you didn't find okay?"

Just as Malbus was about to speak, the little puppet rushed forward and covered his mouth.

Samikina walked out helplessly and told his father...a white lie for the first time.

He said that his fellow citizens were all right.

In fact, I still want to say that it is the other guys who are in trouble.

But maybe... there is a compatriot whose situation may be a bit complicated.

Lelagin's name came to Samikina's mind.

Lelagin... I haven't seen him for a long time. It must have been more than three thousand years since we last met.

That meeting was at the 52nd family meeting. Lelagin didn't know what he was thinking, and his expression was very ugly. He found Him and told Him that he wanted to try something that had never been tried by any being before.

He asked Lelagin what was going on, but Lelagin didn't say anything. He only said that as long as they succeeded, they would be able to find their father. He also revealed that it was an extremely dangerous matter, and even He was not absolutely sure.

He asked how unsure he was, but Lelagin didn't say. He also asked if he wanted to help. He could ask some of his compatriots to help.

Since there is a way to find the father, they have a greater chance of winning with many demons involved.

But Lelakin hesitated for a long time and did not speak out until the meeting was over and they parted ways.

After that, Samikina never saw Lelakin again. Even if Barr tried to catch the demon, he could not catch Lelakin. He didn't know where the demon went.

Lelakin was also the first compatriot to miss a family meeting without being caught.

Agares said something meaningful about this.

——"Perhaps he went to a place where no existence can be found."

He was a little worried at the time, and had searched all over the world for Lielajin, but could not find him. He only knew that the last place where Lielajin appeared was at the end of the Western Continent, where the elves lived - the Aurora Island.

Unlike them, Lelagin seems to be closer to the elves.

Including Lelagin himself, his long light green hair, pointed ears and white skin are also similar to those of the elves.

In a sense, that similarity is unusual.

On the surface, Lelagin's human form looks exactly like the elves.

No matter what, if something happens to Lelakin, they, as compatriots, will definitely sense it. If they don't sense anything, it means that Lelakin is still alive, and may still be challenging the method he said.

Samikina thought a lot for a moment, but did not tell his father about it.

He has been dragging this matter for too long. Today he knows that his father is fine and looks forward to the reunion of all his compatriots. Then, He has the responsibility to find Lelagin.

At least tell Lelagin - "You don't have to work hard, because your father has come back."

Samikina thought while chatting, and secretly finalized his idea

About two hours later, Hughes didn't ask them any more questions. He said it was almost time to go to bed and went to the dormitory to make the bed.

"You guys wait outside."

Marbas tiptoed to follow, but was grabbed by Samikina's paw.

Samikina whispered in Malbus's cat's ear, Follow me to a place. █”

What what?

Buyer and Impos tilted their heads at the same time, not understanding what Samikina suddenly said.

Of course Malbus didn't understand. He had just reunited with his father. Why would he go to the same place with you?

Don't don't!

The golden cat refused and made a cross with its paws.

His body is glittering with gold, and if he changes his movements, he will definitely be no different from the Lucky Cat.

But Samikina was not asking His opinion.

Samikina turned his head and said to Buyer and Impos: "You must protect your father carefully. We will go there and come back."

Impos was a little surprised and didn't understand where Samikina was going.

But Samikina did not hide it and said directly: "I will take Malbus to find Lelagin."

The little puppet paused. Although he subconsciously opposed the increase in compatriots, for Lelagin...

He nodded and said: "Okay, you go, we will protect father."

Malbus was confused and retorted: "Why? You are so strong, just get rid of the devil."

Samikina shook his head, "That place is special."

In the end, Malbus's protest was ineffective and he was taken away after a few struggles.

Before leaving, Samikina left a message to Buyer and Impos, reminding: "There is an extremely weak line of sight surrounding my father. Please pay attention."

Buyer's eyes widened and he asked: "Strong enemy?"

Samikina shook his head, "Maybe it's just the opposite. It's too weak, so weak that it's hard to detect."

No sense of existence, but existence.

Buyer and Inbos remembered it in their hearts and nodded heavily.

Peeping at his father? Humph, die!

On the other side, in the magic laboratory.

Several magicians who had just gone out for dinner came back again.

"Eh? Has this magic circle been changed?"

"It seems so."

"Who changed it?"

"... I don't know."

They stood around the magic circle, perhaps on a whim, trying to inject magic power.
