Pioneering

"Let's go!" The mirror image Zhong Ming's heart rang out, and he dodged behind the two of Orpheus, the afterimage was blurred, and the two of them felt a huge force in their hips almost at the same time, and then they flew into the air without looking back Kicked into the gates of hell.

Almost at the moment when the Orpheus couple disappeared in the gate of hell.

The erratic blue-gray clouds hang in the air, unable to move forward or disperse.

The cyan thunder that fell from the sky lingered there, as if it had become a permanent sky pillar.

The falling blue dust hovered in the air, and the breeze blew around it, but the wind seemed to stop there.

A drop of cold sweat emerged from Zhong Ming's forehead in the mirror image, and the pear-shaped beads of sweat were about to leave, half-remaining on his skin frustratingly.The sound of all things was also frozen in the pinnae.

Everything is silent and quiet, just like the oil painting when the painter stops his brush,
Time and space seem to be stagnant.

"Die, die, die!"

"Oh, I'm a mirror image now, that's fine."

Zhong Ming, who felt that his body was as burdensome as carrying the blue sky and could not move even a bit, thought silently.

Who is driving the fate of Orpheus behind the scenes?
Who has this ability?

It seems that only...

"Master of the underworld, Your Majesty Seranos, why don't you come out and see him?"

As soon as Zhong Ming finished speaking, everything stagnated for a moment, followed by the familiar nausea of ​​time and space changes.

Looking up, the surroundings are no longer the blue-toned hell of jealousy, but a completely different scene.

A misty river flows silently.Its waters were as black as ink, without ripples, as if mirrored to reflect the ghosts and memories of the dead.

On the pier by the river, masked boatmen and Styx ferrymen stood indifferently.His eyes were cold and unforgiving, and his robes rustled in the wind.Holding a long pole in his hand, he is ready to sail and bring the souls of the undead to the underworld.

The ground is full of saltpeter and black rock, and the walls of the sparse buildings are engraved with the great achievements of the ruler of the underworld and the rules of the underworld.

Sadness, depression, despair, wailing.

Ghostly dead wander silently, gazing into the void, their expressions filled with regret and anguish.

Zhong Ming glanced at the scene of the underworld from the perspective of a god from the corner of his eye. For a moment, he couldn't tell whether he had really come to the underworld, or was everything in front of him an illusion?

As for why I can only use my peripheral vision, because there is a big guy in front of me, a huge, huge, huge one.

Zhong Ming, a mirror image close to two meters, stood in front of this big guy, just like a human standing in front of ants.

A black robe, a tall and majestic body, silver hair like a waterfall, overflowing like a flame and burning like a flame, his eyes are as deep as black holes, and there is endless death in a trance.

And on his equally huge throne, the black stone reveals a chill full of strange light, and the gloomy shape seems to be composed of bones, which seems to reflect the near zero and end of countless lives.

When he stood on the throne, the underworld trembled, and all the ghosts and gods were overshadowed.

Theranos, lord of the underworld who forever imprisoned the souls of the unbelievers in the domain of his ruthless rule, sits on his majestic and mysterious throne.

An irresistible domineering aura was revealed from his deep eyes, looking down at Zhong Ming in front of him.

Zhong Ming, who just felt relaxed and able to move alone, once again felt the majestic power that stagnated in time and space.

Grand, mysterious, majestic!
"Long time no see, Theranos."

Zhong Ming has relaxed a lot at this time, and if he can come out to see each other, then he can talk:
"Aren't you tired with your head down like this?"

……

"Hehe~"

After staring at each other for a while, the corners of Theranos' mouth slightly raised, his huge body shrank rapidly, and the throne behind him also shrank accordingly, and soon reached the size of Zhong Ming's eye level.

"'Long time no see' is not very good, strictly speaking this should be our first meeting.

Even counting the Northern Continent War when you communicated with the gods through the Ice Goddess and Thok's Eye, it didn't take long. "

"It's just a matter of getting some sleep."

Zhong Ming saw that he had no intention of giving up his seat, so he stretched out his hand and tapped lightly in the air with a natural expression. A thick water throne, exactly the same shape as the one he was sitting on, appeared in front of Zhong Ming out of thin air.

Zhong Ming sat down calmly without changing his face: "Then what should I say? It's the first time we meet, please take care of me?"

"You don't even have the idea of ​​caring, otherwise you wouldn't even give him a seat.

This way of hospitality spread, and it was thought that the master of the underworld was so poor that he couldn't even afford a chair. "Zhong Ming gave him a nod.

Although Zhong Ming is like an ant that can be crushed to death in front of the ruler of the underworld, he is not in a panic.

It's nothing more than a mirror image clone, it's a big deal to lose one tenth of the power of water.

If the master of the underworld bullies the small by the big, not to mention martial arts, and snatches the seriously incomplete power of water, Zhong Ming will immediately pass the news that the master of the underworld has obtained the incomplete water power to Sea God Siri.

Then you can just sit back and watch the show.

Of course, it is best to be able to communicate.

Even if this is only one-tenth of the seriously incomplete authority, Zhong Ming has spent an untold amount of energy to erase the "external deification" pollution left by Hefnall, how can he give it away for nothing?

In recent years, Yashai's weather has been smooth, and this incomplete power of water has contributed a lot.

"Hospitality? Then you have to be a guest, right? If you ruin my good business, you can also be regarded as a guest?
How should I address you as?God of Wealth?Metal master?Your title of God of Industry that hasn't condensed authority yet? Theranos stared at Zhong Ming with great interest, "Or do you want to use the power of water in this body to compete with Siri for the title of Sea God?" "

"Or, Zhong Ming?"

The mirror mirror Zhong Ming's pupils shrank slightly, and he regained his composure in an instant: "Bad things? Where did you start? I, Zhong Ming, have always been friendly to people and gods. How can I ruin your good things?"

"As for the title, you and I hit it off right away, and I have admired Theranos for a long time, why not call him a brother?"

It's close, not shivering.

"Oh?" The master of the underworld folded his hands together, resting his pale chin on his fingertips, and said in a casual tone, "You just ruined my arrangement with Orpheus, isn't it a good thing for me? Zhong Ming, brother ?”

Listening to Theranos bachelor admitting that he was plotting against Orpheus, and the address is so greasy... Even the princess, lady, queen, and goddess have never called him that!You are a male god, even if you have the face of a handsome ascetic guy, Zhong Ming can't accept it.

"Ahem~" The corner of Zhong Ming's mouth twitched slightly: "Our custom is that we usually use the surname suffix Xiandi to address younger men than ourselves, and use the surname suffix Brother or Big Brother to address older men."

"Well, Brother Serranos, I did this purely carelessly, and I definitely didn't mean to ruin your good deeds on purpose.

I'm just passing by, passing by..."

"I'm so caring and responsible. When I see a lover like Orpheus and Euridae, it's reasonable to help me, isn't it?"

Theranos: "Compensation. No matter what your reason is, if you destroy my plan, you will have to pay a price."

"Brother Seranos, you and I hit it off right away..." Zhong Ming still planned to get close and try to play the emotional card.

"I don't know you very well," Theranos interrupted Zhong Ming, and said, "Besides, my brother's settlement seems to have come from Yasha in his hand, isn't it? 'Brother Zhong Xian'?"

Silanos emphasized "Brother Zhong Xian", the meaning is obvious, I know you and your Yasha very well, I didn't try to play tricks, it's useless!

"What's more, you and I are not as good as brothers. When Suoke asked me to help out against the God of Wind, I also clearly marked the price."

"If you are not willing to pay the price, then I have no choice but to take it myself. The authority in your avatar is also a good compensation, which is more than enough." Silanos stared straight at Zhong Ming, with a deadly and profound sense of majesty Overwhelmed again.

Damn it, the situation is out of control!Zhong Ming gritted his teeth secretly.

"The majestic master of the underworld, bullying the small with the big, bullying a demigod, won't it sound good to spread the word?"

Silanos looked calm: "Are you referring to Orpheus or you? Don't talk about it, as long as you want to fly to the star world, you can do it at any time, at least you have to be a powerful god."

"If you say, Orpheus, then there is nothing embarrassing.

It is normal for true gods to hunt demigods.

Since the wizards of the Silver Age brought the gods to the test bench, the gods have suppressed anyone who might threaten us.

After the Bronze Age appeared the method of achievement of acquired gods, it became more common for gods to hunt and kill demigods.

Authority is a good thing that everyone likes.

There are more hunters than me, but there are no more hunters.

No matter how I treat Orpheus, I am very compliant. "

"Besides, what do I do, how do I do it, do I need outsiders to point me out?" Silanos' silver-gray hair slipped from his fingertips boredly, and his calm tone revealed his confidence and arrogance as the ruler of the underworld.

"The true god hunts and kills the demigod?" Zhong Ming tapped the handrail of the Water Throne with five fingers of his right hand in turn, "There is nothing wrong with the motivation and logic, it is the boat that crossed the river first.

However, I am also one of the demigods, why haven't I met anyone who hunted and killed me? "

Ever since Zhong Ming gained power, he has never encountered any gods who took the initiative to attack him. On the contrary, he snatched the territory of these gods first, alarming the sea god and the god of vacuum...

Zhong Ming is so comfortable and bold, does he seem to be out of place among the demigods?
"Because you are special," Sairanos, the lord of the underworld, said, "Your appearance is related to the promotion of the world. You are paid attention to by the will of the world and favored by fate.

According to Sok, the god who takes the initiative to attack you first will be disgusted and rejected by fate.

The gods are not truly eternal, and there is still the risk of falling. No god wants to gamble on whether he can resist the backlash of fate.

The feeling of entering the other side is not good, and I was replaced by someone like Hefner without paying attention. "

Mirror image Zhong Ming's eyes lit up: "Then Siranos, you can't..."

"I can't shoot you?" Theranos sneered and said what Zhong Ming didn't have time to say, "Yes, that's right, of course I won't shoot you.

But there are so many powerful people in the underworld and hell, if anyone has a crooked mind about your little clone, that has nothing to do with me. "

Zhong Mingxu rubbed his temples. Doesn't that mean, I'll let you go, my little brother never said I'll let you go.

Of course, the actual operation of Theranos will definitely be more precise, release his news, seduce some strong people who have no secret knowledge to shoot at his mirror image, and then kill it, it should not be too simple.

"So, are you sure of me? Do I have to agree to compensation?"

"What do you want me to compensate? Or, what do you want? You might as well say it first and listen."

"You and I are both characters with hundreds of thousands of beliefs every minute. There's no need to go round and round. It's unnecessary to waste time."

Theranos clapped his hands lightly: "Okay, okay, okay. How do you say it in your Asshai saying, talk quickly?"

"Please don't call a male fast, it's impolite."

"Are you a bit..." Theranos pointed at his head, shook his head, and said, "I need you to do me a favor."

"What's busy? Let me hear it?" Zhong Ming asked.

Silanos didn't answer directly, and said to himself: "What do you think of the underworld?"

"I feel very good, very underworld."

Silanos ignored Zhong Ming's shrewdness, and continued: "Corruption, silence, death, darkness... howling everywhere, this is the underworld.

But most of all 'crowded'! "

"Oh? I think you are quite spacious. Have you ever seen a wage earner who eats and drinks in a small room of ten square meters? I think you are showing off your many believers and engaging in Versailles literature." Zhong Ming said suspiciously.

Silanos was not angry when he was questioned, he just said lightly: "In the beginning, the creatures in the underworld were only insignificant, and even after thousands of years, it is difficult to meet other creatures.

When I first started, I was very envious of the followers of other gods assigned to the material world, and I even went there to manage forces, and I would try my best to find sub-planes to spread faith. "

"But now," Sairanos said with a look of embarrassment, "the dead souls in the world tree come to the underworld continuously, and they can only enter and cannot enter! Even if the underworld is as vast as any main plane, it is about to pretend No more!"

"Especially after peace for so long, creatures from all planes reproduce like crazy.

No matter how big the place is, there is a limit!

According to the current speed, in tens of thousands of years, the underworld will start to be soul-stirring! "

Even if the underworld has been throwing souls into the seven hells recently, it is only a temporary delay. According to the current surge rate of souls, filling the seven hells is just around the corner. "

"However, I can't destroy these undead on a large scale, not to mention that they are my believers when they come to the underworld, and the world consciousness does not allow me to do so."

"The reason why I plotted against Orpheus is because his music can speed up the natural dissipation of these dead souls."

"Since you released Orpheus for me, you have to help me solve this problem."

Zhong Ming wondered: "Isn't it a good thing to have more believers? Isn't it just...the population is a little more crowded after the population explosion? The soul stacking soul will not affect the quality of life of you, the ruler of the underworld, right?"

"Don't tell me, are you still a good God with compassion?" (End of this chapter)
