The final gentleman

A square brazier made of special stones.

It burns with a strong, hot and regular flame. Although the fire is warm yellow, there is a kind of white in the inner layer. This white flame layer seems to be alive, breathing with the rhythm of the flame. As if in a deep sleep.

When Yi Chen stared at the bonfire,

Like a fly stuck to grease, consciousness is firmly stuck on it,

Even if he stands twenty meters away, he can still feel the most intuitive burning, which not only heats up his body, but even sears his consciousness.

Those who failed to obtain fire in the past were not because the ritual failed.

But they simply couldn't withstand the direct burning caused by the bonfire. Before they got close, their consciousness was burned away and they became dementia. Their bodies were also scorched, and they were thrown into the brazier in a charred state.

This is why you can hear the sound of burning flesh on the mountain trails, because too many people died in this process. When a certain amount is reached, the death process will be integrated into the environment, making climbers have a desire for campfires from the beginning. of awe.

Yi Chen is completely different from other climbers.

Not only did his body and consciousness not feel any discomfort, but he was enjoying the burning from the ancient evil sun.

Because the little grape itself has evil yang attributes, Yi Chen, as a symbiont, is very familiar with, even friendly to, this burning heat, and is eager to take possession of the firewood as his own.

slowly,

Yi Chen, a painful body of flesh and blood, began to stir under the burning firewood.

The "acupuncture iron chain" in the body reacted, aching, dancing, yearning, and spinning under the burning flames of the evil sun, as if it could use the burning energy to forge the iron chain to a higher purity.

The needles symbolizing pain penetrated the skin, softened and swayed, and looked like slender and short iron tentacles, urging the subject Yi Chen to throw his body between the fire pots to be calcined.

Just when Yi Chen stepped forward and was about to approach the bonfire, a hand suddenly stretched out from behind and grabbed the corner of his clothes.

"Teacher, please wait a moment! I just felt the abnormal "greed factor" overflowing from your mind. Although I know very well that as a student, I shouldn't meddle in these matters.

But the bonfire in front of you is of great significance to the entire old world. If you try to plunder it, it will completely disrupt the balance of the old world, and you may fall into the central vortex of chaos, which is too dangerous. "

Yi Chen never ignores the advice of others, let alone his own students.

A jet-black substance overflowed from the epileptic brain, allowing reason to instantly gain the upper hand. He stopped and asked, "Thirteen, why do you say that?"

"Because the firewood burning in this bonfire is not a fragment of the evil sun... He existed long before the fall of the evil sun.

According to the records in the book, He is the second son of Evil Yang, the white flame-'Ozuen'.

He has been given an eternal mission since his birth. He has become one with the mountain range connecting the sky, cutting off the connection between life and death, and limiting the contact between life and death.

It is precisely because of his existence that even if the evil sun falls, the dead are still restricted in entry and exit, and most of them are confined to the valley. Any dead who dares to approach the bonfire will be burned by the evil sun in the most direct way.

Your body contains both the evil yang attribute and the dead attribute. If you get close to it, it will inevitably produce unimaginable reactions, and even cause the campfire to become unstable... Once the balance is broken, disaster will come. "

"Let me just say~ This thing must have existed before the fall of Evil Sun, and when I just looked at it, I could vaguely feel the vitality contained in the campfire.

The second son of Xie Yang turns out to be like this. "

Yi Chen used the epileptic brain's absolute control over the body to press all the iron chain needles back into the body, "Thirteen, go and accept the fire ~ I'll wait here for you."

"Thank you teacher for your trust."

Thirteen ignored the scorching heat and stepped forward.

When she got close to the campfire, a large amount of white smoke immediately rose around the brazier, making it impossible to see what was going on inside with normal vision.

But the ashes eyes provided by Little Grape could see a general outline, and saw a white individual wearing a crown rising from the brazier.

Thin, long skirt, unknown face.

The white individual reached out and held the candle above Thirteen's head, injecting special fire into it. In the process, the candle trembled slightly, and there was even a possibility of cracking and collapsing.

Finally stabilize and complete acceptance.

The white mist dissipated, and when she came back, the flames of the candle above her head were also embedded with a layer of white flames that looked like fresh life.

When Yi Chen looked at and felt the light of the white flames as a living person, his body seemed to be injected with energy, his strength increased by about 10%, and the umbilical cord in his body also seemed quite excited.

It is this white flame that allows the living to pass through the canyon and visit the dead.

At this time, the little grape in the body transmitted a message: "Hey!" William, don’t we really give it a try? Maybe we can get something good from the campfire to strengthen the embers like us. 』

"We will go there later. We have just arrived in the old world. Try not to touch such 'important nodes' that can tip the balance of the world."

The reason why we were stopped in Heikou City just now was not because of the 'risk aversion' that the person in charge wearing the crow helmet, Renato, said, but because he saw my specialness and used risk aversion as an excuse. Lead us up the mountain, trying to influence, shake or even extinguish this bonfire.

Even if we can really influence this bonfire, we have to wait until our strength allows it, that is, after passing the "pathway". 』

"Okay, okay~ Hurry up to the original tomb to get other opportunities for improvement, and quickly find a way that suits you. When you are strong enough, remember to come back here and pick off the two grapes from the crow for me to eat."

There is firewood everywhere, so there is really no need to touch this dangerous guy. 』

Yi Chen stopped responding and went down the mountain with Tong Shisan.

Returning to the streets of Heikou City again, due to the white light contained in the candlelight, the deceased people avoided and retreated to the dark place. Even if they only cast a moment of sight, the eyes of the deceased would be burned out.

In the room at the spire in the center of Heikou City,

Renato, the crow knight, also held the dark eyes in his palms and put them back under the mask. His decayed and old face was huddled in disdain and anger.

…

In Heikou City, Yi Chen failed to wait for anyone's guidance, so he had to walk through the city alone and headed for the mouth of the Bonfire Mountain Range.

The dead man above the city gate began to spin as he felt the burning white flames, the gears were driven, and the gate opened.

A dark and deep canyon corridor like a huge black mouth seemed to swallow up the visitor Yi Chen.

The light of the mountain bonfire also just fell on the mouth of the gorge, no longer going deep.

Without the illumination of fire, the endless darkness alone can peel off the skin of a living person, plunder the fresh flesh, and bury them in the depths of darkness.

"Thirteen, come here..."

"Good teacher."

Bang ~ An iron chain wrapped in black leather without any pain properties grew out, locking the candle puppet's wrist to ensure that the two would not be separated.

Yi Chen maximizes the effect of stimulating the "black dead skin" in the clothing and improves the appearance of his own death attributes.

Take out the dead spine and connect it to the tail vertebrae as a tail to further increase your dead content and blend in with the locals.

Immediately afterwards, another chain grew.

Bang bang bang bang~

A hollow metal mask made of needle-punched iron chains is worn on the face.

Some of the acupuncture needles are directly inserted into the mouth skin, gums and chin, which can not only cover up the appearance, but also provide the most direct pain to the brain, ensuring that one can stay awake in such darkness.
