Infernal Artist

Outside York.

forest.

Liu Ping emerged from the hole of an ancient tree.

The devil lord followed behind him.

Liu Ping looked in the direction of York City and said:

"If you hadn't met me, what would you have done after arriving in York City?"

"...Have a casual look. If there are no special circumstances, go back." The devil lord said.

"Aren't you an inspector?" Liu Ping said.

"Apprentice." The devil lord said.

"Why not use that watch to find prisoners?" Liu Ping asked.

The devil lord looked at him and said with a complicated expression: "What if something goes wrong? In fact, if I was the only one who entered that prison room just now, I should have died there."

After listening, Liu Ping fell into deep thought.

There was no fluctuation in the other party's soul, and it was obvious that he was telling the truth.

In the history of the Kingdom of Ceylon, on December 10, 37 AD, the city of York was destroyed.

The devil lord must have appeared at that time, but he probably did not use the watch and did not enter the prison room.

But this time, he started the watch himself.

This is completely different from history!

"Go." Liu Ping said.

"Ah?" The devil lord was a little confused.

"Report what happened here to your superiors. Your target is the prisoner. I'm very happy that you can find the target." Liu Ping said.

"But my soul -" the devil lord said.

"Belongs to me." Liu Ping said.

"Can't you let me go? I'm just a little level 35 devil. Why do you bother a little person like me?" the devil lord begged.

Liu Ping said nothing.

In the void, the card's box gradually emerged, and a number also appeared in his upper left corner:

"3."

Level 3.

The devil lord was sweating profusely and murmured: "This is impossible."

What evil had he done to be taken as a slave by a level 3 knight?

Liu Ping patted it on the shoulder and comforted: "Fortunately, you saved a life, right?"

The devil lord remained silent.

"Go, report the situation, and then do what you should have done. We will meet again later." Liu Ping said.

"You let me go?" the devil lord asked in surprise.

"Of course, but you can only talk about your own findings and don't mention me - you can still handle such a small thing, can't you?" Liu Ping said.

"...Okay." The devil lord said.

It turned into a bolt of lightning, quickly flew into the sky, and disappeared from Liu Ping's sight.

Liu Ping jumped up to the tree and took another look in the direction of York City.

this city.

Already destroyed.

The evil god hiding in the dark gave himself no chance to change history.

——But after the historical event of the destruction of York City, he let the devil go and let him report the prisoner's information.

The Inspection Committee is said to be an organization that deals with prisoners.

In that prison room, he saw countless bugs, and these bugs were exactly the same as Qian Zhouwu's original ones——

They belong to that evil god.

Therefore, let the Supervisory Committee deal with the evil god.

In history, something happens that didn't happen originally. What will be the result?

This is your own temptation and counterattack.

After all, from now on, no one knows what will happen next.

Liu Ping jumped down from the tree and walked deep into the jungle.

The Supervisory Committee is about to intervene in this incident, and of course it is impossible for him to return to York City.

Then...

leave here.

Go to other cities in the Kingdom of Ceylon.

Anyway, I have the Holy Communion Technique, I can't starve to death, and I have a healing profession. No matter which city I am in, I can always find a job.

…

after one day.

Along the road outside the forest.

Yana finished the last bite of the Holy Communion, put down the tableware, and said with a smile: "Thank you for the hospitality."

"Have you eaten yet?" Liu Ping asked.

"Well, my strength is constantly being restored and there is no curse on me. This feels really good." Yana said.

Liu Ping snapped his fingers, and the dining table disappeared immediately.

"Go back to sleep and come out after you have completely recovered." Liu Ping said.

"Okay." Yana responded, turned into a card, and flew into his hand again.

Liu Ping put away the cards and set off again.

He kept walking forward along the road, and not long after, he heard the sound of people approaching.

I saw a group of people on the road who had set up tents and were eating and resting.

Liu Ping suddenly became happy.

Finally I met someone, now I can ask about the direction of the nearest city.

He walked over and said politely: "Excuse me, may I ask -"

One of the guards yelled: "Get out of here, get out of here, little beggar!"

He was about to pull out the long knife in his hand.

Liu Ping was startled and couldn't help but take a few steps back and looked towards himself.

——After the battle in York City, he entered the prison cell again, passed through a long tunnel, and walked in the forest for a day. His clothes had become tattered and exuded a smell of dust and burnt. smell.

No wonder the other person thinks he is a little beggar.

Liu Ping smiled and said, "Brother, I just want to ask how to get to the nearest city."

The guard looked at him and said contemptuously: "Go through the road on the left and keep walking, and you can go to a new place to beg."

Behind him, those who were sitting together looking at each other.

"Thank you." Liu Ping nodded towards the other party, turned and left.

After he left.

Those people suddenly burst into laughter.

"Old Stone is so mean."

"Who says it's not the case? If that little beggar keeps walking along the left road -"

"Haha, he's dead!"

The guard named Stone had a smile on his face and said, "Everyone, I'm just trying to lighten the burden on major charities."

the other side.

Liu Ping walked for a while, but found that the road ahead was getting more and more remote.

The road that was originally paved with stone slabs has turned into a muddy path.

Occasionally, there are spider webs stretched across the branches on both sides of the path, blocking the road ahead.

"No, if it's a road that's often traveled, why are there so many spider webs?"

Liu Ping recalled the man's expression when he spoke before, and after thinking about it for a moment, he understood the reason.

He sighed, feeling a little bored.

"Forget it, let's go back to the road and ask the others later."

After making up his mind, Liu Ping was about to turn around and return when the sound of gurgling water suddenly came from deep in the woods ahead.

Stream?

Liu Ping stopped.

I still have a few changes of knight uniforms, so why not take a bath in the stream in front and put on clean clothes.

In this case, if you ask for directions again, others should not dare to deceive you easily.

The decision is made.

Liu Ping pushed aside the branches on both sides of the path and strode forward.

soon.

The front suddenly becomes clear.

A small stream meandered and formed a deep pool not far away.

--bath!

Liu Ping took off his shirt as he walked.

This outfit had been soaked in the billowing black smoke from York City, and had turned pitch black. It was indeed uncomfortable to wear.

He came to the pool and was about to take off his pants when he suddenly heard a faint singing.

Someone!

And she's a woman!

Liu Ping hurriedly picked up the clothes on the ground, put them on his body, and looked around.

cliff.

Messy trees.

rocky beach.

Stream.

There was no one anywhere.

Where does this singing sound come from?

Liu Ping's eyes gradually fell on the pool.

I saw bubbles floating up from the depths of the pool one after another, and then, a woman wearing an emerald green robe floated up.

There were branches at both ends of her head, covered with flowers. Her eyes were a touch of light green, and she looked at Liu Ping curiously.

A line of small words floated above her head.

"The succubus of the woods."

"Those with this name guard the secrets of the world and have a certain power of the law of cause and effect."

Liu Ping's heart skipped a beat.

I actually encountered such an incredible existence here!

"Who are you?" the woman asked.

"Hello, I'm Liu Ping. I'm passing by here." Liu Ping said.

"What are you doing here?" the woman asked again.

"Take a bath...but since you have taken over this place, I'll move to another place." Liu Ping said.

He was about to turn around and leave, but the woman asked: "Did you hear the singing just now?"

"Ah, I heard it, was it you who sang it?" Liu Ping asked.

"Yes." the woman said.

"It sounds great!" Liu Ping praised.

"Are you telling the truth?" the woman asked hurriedly.

"After all, I am also a professional in musical instruments. You have to believe my evaluation. In fact, my standards are very strict and I usually never praise others." Liu Ping said with a smile.

The woman laughed, her expression as soft as a spring breeze, and said softly: "Those who hear my singing will only be afraid. It has been a long time since anyone has praised me so sincerely."

"Why are they afraid of you?" Liu Ping asked.

"Because when you hear my singing, you must answer my questions. If you fail to answer, your soul will turn into the nourishment of the forest." The woman said.

"What's the problem?" Liu Ping asked with interest.

The woman was slightly startled, looked at him and said, "Forget it, go ahead. I'm in a good mood today, so I won't ask you any questions."

"Ah, it's okay. If it's something like fighting, after all, I'm only fourteen years old. I haven't matured yet and my combat ability is limited. Of course I don't dare to make mistakes - but if it's a problem, I'm interested." Liu Ping road.

"Aren't you afraid that you won't be able to answer the question?" the woman said with a smile.

"What if I can't answer the question? Can I go find the answer?" Liu Ping asked.

The woman was startled again and couldn't help but ask: "Why do you want to find the answer?"

"A good question is very rare. It will teach us a lot of knowledge and secrets. I like questions like this and its answers." Liu Ping said.

The woman swam in the pool for a week, and suddenly sighed: "You are still very young...and you have such a heart, forget it, you go..."

Liu Ping said: "I feel your kindness, let's do this, you give me a standard, and when I reach that standard, you tell me the problem."

The woman said: "That's okay. When you figure out what the world is made of, you can come back to me and I will ask questions."

"Will you die if you answer the wrong question?"

"Yes."

"Did you get the answer right?"

"When you get it right, you'll know the answer."

"Okay, I actually know what this world is made of."

"What?"

"sequence."

"Be specific."

"Okay, I guess it's a deck of cards."

boom--

The water in the pool is like a backward waterfall, rising into the sky.

The woman floated in front of Liu Ping, exuding strange fluctuations all over her body, and asked: "My question is, after the death of this world, how can it be resurrected again?"

Liu Ping was silent for a while and praised: "What a good question... I didn't expect to hear this question here."

"Have you ever heard that question?"

"Yes, it is the final question in the trilogy of the Death of the World."
