Overturned Tower

Chapter 217 The Wizard of Babel

Russell immediately became nervous.

He clearly used the body of a barber, and his spiritual relative should be Bluebird, but Zhongxiang called him "little kitten"...

Is this... has he been seen through?

...However, Russell was not particularly surprised.

Just when Zhong Xiang roared angrily, he was almost shocked back to his original shape——

At that time, Russell's body fluctuated violently, and his entire body turned into an illusory, translucent ultramarine color, and lines like water waves rippled repeatedly from his body...

——Just like the special effect when he was killed in the transformed state before and was forced to return to his original form.

When he looked down and saw his arms, Russell realized his condition.

When he was on the airship and was knocked out of Alice's transformed state by a robber, he could say that the scene would never be forgotten and unforgettable.

When the fluctuations reached their peak, Russell could even see his original image from his arms.

It's like being embedded in ultramarine slime without any clothes on... When the slime fluctuates violently, the inner self will vaguely emerge. From the color block, you can at least see his cat ears and his head, which is a full circle smaller than the Bluebird.

But, isn't he about to be exposed here?

The strangulation was still watching from the side...

Although his chest was still pressed against the anvil by Zhongang's left hand, Russell still reluctantly raised his head and tried to look at the wall where the strangled man was knocked away.

When he looked up, Russell was stunned.

——I saw that Strangler had disappeared without knowing when, and only the pits on the wall were left to prove his previous existence.

"I just sent the big lion back."

Zhongxiang smiled hoarsely: "Since you want to hide yourself...I won't expose you."

"...Send it back?"

Russell murmured.

He immediately guessed Zhong Xiang's method.

——It was that angry roar just now!

That roar not only nearly penetrated Russell's transformation, but also kicked Strangle directly out of the dream world.

It sounds like this trick has a bit of Pokémon flavor...

"No one can remain calm and themselves in the midst of my anger. No one can. Not even this world."

Zhonggo Shen Shen muttered in a low voice: "Even this world will be shaken by my anger... This is the divine self I forged with pain and anger.

"Do you understand, this is the way of the melting pot. It is not suitable for you. You are not self-centered enough."

"...Then why did you catch me?"

Russell sneered and said: "Maybe I can also go to other schools after getting the certification..."

"That's for later."

The lizard man smiled lowly: "You are Russell, right... I know you are coming.

"I want to... give you a gift."

Russell's words were stuck deep in his throat for a moment.

His eyes widened.

There is no need to pretend anymore... Zhongang even named him directly!

If he was strangled, he might not even know Ultramarine's real name.

But this old mage, who theoretically should have always lived on land, actually knows the name "Russell"...

...Does anyone know that "Russell" has relied on his own psychic powers to become a "legal mage" with a chip?

But this shouldn’t be right?

"...how did you know?"

"It's Tokifat."

Zhongxiang laughed softly and said: "She told me. She said you might come to my place and let me take care of you."

Tokifat...who is it?

Russell was confused for a moment, searching for this elf-like name in his mind.

Then he realized it quickly.

"Is it...a deer-headed statue?"

He suddenly remembered... the deer-headed statue once said that apart from her, there were other mages living on the ground in the Tower of Babel.

So it turns out to be this "Zhongxiang"?

"Are you also from the Tower of Babel?"

Russell suddenly felt intense joy.

No wonder the strangulation who inherited the path of Zhongang still hasn't got Zhongang's name; but when Russell met him for the first time, Zhongang directly told him his real name...

This can be regarded as a kind of meeting an old friend in a foreign country.

"It was."

The scales on his body were as black as steel, reflecting the dull light of matte metal, and the bright red lines on his body... looked reminiscent of a lizard man like Godzilla. He sighed expressionlessly: "But I can no longer leave the dream world.

"Nothing more than a mutilated piece of trash."

Zhonggo murmured softly.

If another person were to say this sentence, the tone might be decadent and powerless.

But although Zhonggo's tone was calm, it inexplicably frightened Russell.

It has a terrifying temperament of "he might really do something", like seeing a furious murderer on the street and being able to tell at just one glance that he must not approach him.

...But he was still pinned down on the anvil by Zhong Xiang's left hand.

Russell felt like his back was being burned.

"If you get hit by this hammer..."

Russell glanced at the heavy-looking mace covered with metal thorns, and said euphemistically: "I might die."

"Will not."

Zhongxiang replied good-naturedly: "This is the hammer of pain.

"If you get hit by it, you'll only feel pain... but you won't die."

But I don’t want to feel pain either!

"...What gift do you want to give me?"

Russell asked nervously.

Zhongxiang smiled lowly: "I'll give you a wedge.

"A wedge of pain... driven into your heart."

As he spoke, without waiting for Russell to reply, he raised the hammer in his hand.

"Be patient for a little bit. If you are in the dream world, you won't die, and you will feel better after that..."

Zhongang said, knocking down the hammer in his hand hard.

The moment it landed on Russell's chest, Russell thought he would vomit blood and collapse his chest.

But there was only a crisp sound of hitting metal——

Ding!

But with that hammer blow, extremely severe pain flowed through his limbs and bones in an instant. His brain went blank and he completely lost consciousness.

Even the world in front of me stopped and got stuck at that moment!

And when Russell's consciousness slowly recovered again, the scene at the moment when the weight fell still remained in front of his eyes like an afterimage.

Only then did Russell notice that Zhongxiang was like an old blacksmith, holding Russell's ankles and sinking him into the river of anger.

Remembering what he said before the strangulation, he struggled fiercely, but could not break away from Zhong Xiang's grasp like a steel pliers.

When Russell was sunk into the river of anger like Achilles...the boundless rage that could overwhelm his consciousness began to seep into his blood vessels using his skin as a medium!

If the pain hadn't made him feel numb, I'm afraid he would have gone completely crazy and wanted to destroy the whole world at that moment!

The dark red fire in his pupils intensified several times in an instant, and was submerged into pure bright red.

He roared irrationally, lying on all fours like a beast and trying to escape, but was caught back by Zhongang and pressed on the anvil.

As he swung the hammer again, something bright red seemed to be shaken off Russell's body.

His whole body was shaken, and the pain of being nailed miraculously neutralized the boundless power of anger.

With his rationality briefly restored, Russell was shocked to realize that his consciousness had become extremely pure in an instant. It's like some toxins have been expelled.

Zhonggo actually didn't lie.

Still, it feels a little comfortable...

I have a cold and have slept...

Chapter 2 will also be a little later, but it’s still there!
