Indescribable cyberpunk
Chapter 378 Face to Face
Zhu Jue never expected that Lobelin would actually say that he really just wanted to borrow the Searing Box. Now he was in an awkward position. After all, he had just said in front of so many people that he could borrow the box for a few minutes.
Fortunately, before this result, Zhu Jue also added a condition, that is, Lobelin would help him open the Searing Box, so there was still some room for mediation.
But before Zhu Jue spoke again, Lobelin suddenly stretched out his right hand towards him: "I hope you can lend me three minutes."
Hearing this, Zhu Jue was startled at first, his eyes fell on Lobelin's palm for a few seconds, he raised his eyebrows, and then grinned.
Don't get me wrong, the two of them didn't intend to hit it off immediately, and Lobelin didn't extend his hand to express his kindness or request.
In fact, even what he said was ambiguous. Normal people must have thought that he wanted to ask for Zhu Jue's consent, but this was not the case at all, because Zhu Jue could clearly see the surrounding circles around his palm. A layer of dark brown gravel, and there was no pleading look in his eyes at all.
I hope you can lend me 3 minutes. What I mean here is: if you have the ability, let me borrow it to get the Searing Box, otherwise just stand there obediently and watch me take the thing away!
Without any hesitation, Zhu Jue opened his hand and shook it.
The moment they held their hands, people within a few meters of each other immediately noticed the shaking of the ground and a heart-chilling cold wave. As a result, in this lively street, people were everywhere looking around at this moment.
They all saw the two people in the middle of the street, but they didn't pay attention because the two people acted like friends reunited after a long separation.
If someone is more careful, they will find that under the palms of the two people, there is an ∞ shaped like an infinity symbol, with dark gravel on one side and blue ice crystals on the other, competing and confronting each other.
The whole process doesn't take long, just less than 10 seconds.
Zhu Jue was the first to let go.
"I have to go to a cocktail party in half an hour. Let's talk somewhere else?"
Pointing at the people coming and going around him, Zhu Jue squinted his eyes with a smile on his face. The latter obviously had no intention of fighting in the street, so he nodded immediately, not caring that Zhu Jue would place the conversation inside the Shuojin Chamber of Commerce's inn. .
Lisanna's room was being repaired by a cement worker before. The two of them moved to another room. The people from the Chamber of Commerce brought two cups of coffee over and then they all left.
The competition on the street did not create conflicting emotions between the two. In fact, it was the hidden fighting that allowed both sides to have confidence in each other's strength without having too many negative emotions, so now they start to fight. The mood of the two people drinking coffee was actually quite normal.
"How did you know that the Searing Box was in my hands?"
Zhu Jue leaned against the stone fence on the edge of the balcony, coffee beside him, and glanced at Lobelin.
"This news should be a secret. Even I only found out about it in the past two days."
"Dream Eaters, I found one of their strongholds in Dilas Harbor and spent some time asking for information."
"You asked it from the Dream Eaters. It's interesting. Just a few hours ago, a few Dream Eaters came to me and wanted to ask for the Searing Box. The only difference is that I didn't ask. what."
Knowing the source of Lobelin's information, Zhu Jue nodded with satisfaction. The other party had a hostile relationship with the Dream Eaters. At least he didn't have to worry that the other party would attack the Chamber of Commerce when he left the Dreamland.
"Look, we have found something in common. There is a saying in my hometown that the enemy of my enemy is my friend. You and I have both fought against the Dream Eaters. So, it is still possible for us to become friends. .”
"Maybe. If you can give me the Searing Box, this process will be shortened very quickly."
Tapping his fingers on the mask, Lobelin was as calm as Zhu Jue.
"Haha, before shortening this process, can I ask you why you want the Searing Box? To be honest, my men and I still haven't figured out what's inside, let alone how to open it. On the contrary, Those of you who came to the door seem to know how to use it. I guarantee that if you are willing to tell me how to actually use it, I can lend it to you for a period of time. Far more than 3 minutes."
If the Searing Box is not opened, it is a piece of waste. Zhu Jue has no clue at this time. If there is an opportunity in this regard, he will naturally not miss it.
"I don't know what's in it."
Lobelin spread his hands and said.
Zhu Jue's hand that wanted to take the coffee cup stopped in mid-air. He was silent for a while, then looked at Lobelin: "You said you don't know what's inside, but you want to use it to solve your troubles. I look like Do you look like such a fool?"
"I thought we should be able to reach some consensus, but now it seems you are not interested."
As soon as he finished speaking, the fine dust floating in the orange sunset light on the balcony was blown into ice crystals by the cold wind.
When it comes to fighting alone, Zhu Jue has never been afraid of anyone!
"You misunderstood. I really don't know what is in the Searing Box, but I know the origin of the Searing Box. It is related to the God of the Sea. The ancient books I checked mentioned that in the past, people would be near the Sunken City. Perform sacrifices to the God of the Sea, and the contents of the Searing Box are the key props. As for what is contained in it, and the God of the Sea, there are no detailed mentions in the books, only vague mentions of them in a few words. Origin, as if those existences shouldn’t be talked about.”
If he didn't want to talk, Lobelin wouldn't be sitting here.
"So, it is a sacrificial item for Poseidon. Does this have any extraordinary significance to you?"
According to Lisanna, the Searing Box was indeed found in the sea near the Sunken City. Lobelin's explanation was very credible, but Zhu Jue still didn't understand what he meant.
"Of course, since it can become a key prop for the Poseidon's sacrifice, there is no doubt that the Searing Box must contain some kind of powerful power that is closely related to the ocean. I need it."
"do what?"
"My name is Lobelin, survivor of the curse of the Gateless City, Sandstone Lobelin!"
Raising his head, the man emphasized his identity, his tone filled with pathos and pain.
The evening breeze blew by, blowing the tall coconut trees next to the house, and the broad leaves rustled, and Zhu Jue scratched his chin in embarrassment.
Zhu Jue could feel that the title of the other party must contain some kind of meaning, but he really didn't know what it meant. He was not an aboriginal resident of the Dreamland at all, but a time traveler. However, the atmosphere was so heated. Zhu Jue I even doubted that if I said something like "I haven't heard it" at this time, the other party would become angry and fight to the death with him.
"Heh, it seems you don't know about Gateless City. It doesn't matter. You will understand it soon."
Lobelin saw Zhu Jue's expression in his eyes, laughed bitterly, raised his hand to press the mask, leaned back on the chair, and immediately took off the mask.
Hiss~
Taking a breath of air, Zhu Jue's eyes were fixed on Lobelin's face. The cool night breeze that was supposed to bring him a chill now made his whole body feel chilly and his scalp numb.
Zhu Jue has seen all kinds of disgusting existences, and it goes without saying that the monsters that are the source of mental pollution are curious, but the scene before him is something Zhu Jue has never seen before.
Except for a pair of eyeballs that are almost the same as gray glass beads, that face no longer has any other organs!
Nose, eyebrows, mouth, face, even the most basic bones and flesh and blood. Nothing, nothing!
Just a ball of gravel or dust that keeps falling apart and coming back together again
At this moment, what appeared in front of Zhu Jue was such a terrifying scene that was difficult to describe in words. An ordinary person would have screamed and fainted by this time, but Zhu Jue was Zhu Jue, and his will had long been After surviving the "low-level taste", I can now barely appreciate even some "high-end existence".
Now it was Lobelin's turn to be surprised.
"Are not you afraid?"
Everyone who has seen his face in the past has been frightened, and there are also a lot of people who have fainted. It's not that he has never seen someone pretending to be calm, but he has never seen someone with his eyes wide open and leaning forward. A "wonderful" step.
"You may not believe it. In the past few years, I talked and laughed with many monsters. I have also seen glimpses of monsters more terrifying than you, so I have some resistance. In addition, my appearance before was also terrifying in another sense. Now I really have no right to laugh at you."
To say that he is a monster, Zhu Jue, who is still able to carry out complete mutations, seems to be not much different. He smacked his lips and continued,
"How did you get to look like this?"
He picked up the coffee on the table and drank it in one gulp. To be precise, he drank it all in one gulp, because from Zhu Jue's perspective, Lobelin just poured the coffee on his face. This scene even made the former laugh. made a sound.
Not only did Lobelin not feel embarrassed about this, but he was in a good mood.
In the past few years, he has been wearing a mask, and this is the first time he has met such an interesting guy.
"You are the first person I have met who is not afraid of me. You asked me how I got this look. Since you want to hear it, I am willing to tell you as your reward for talking to me face to face."
Face-to-face conversations have been something Lobelin has been looking forward to for years!
