Chapter 202 Seven Deadly Sins

Boom! The 8000 alchemical shrapnel in the torpedo exploded, and in an instant a small storm appeared around Gu Ye and Norton. The sharp alchemical shrapnel kept cutting them like a chainsaw.

Norton's movements gradually slowed down. Under the protection of the dragon's phantom, Gu Ye approached Norton's chest with difficulty. Norton let out a scream, but the next moment a look of madness reappeared in his eyes.

The blood in his body was contaminated by unknown substances. Norton's sanity had disappeared, leaving only the instinct of destruction. He grabbed Gu Ye, still chanting the Word of Spirit.

The white scales on Gu Ye's body spread out inch by inch, making a crisp sound. He used his arms to push away Norton's giant claws, raised his right hand and inserted it into Norton's claws without hesitation.

His palm grasped the bone, and as he pulled, the bone of Norton's arm was pulled out from the flesh and blood, along with a thick dragon tendon. At this moment, Gu Ye was like the Third Prince in mythology, punishing the evil dragon.

After the dragon tendon was pulled out, Norton's dragon claw suddenly lost consciousness and let go of Gu Ye. Gu Ye pushed hard on the dragon claw and flew towards the chest of Norton's huge dragon body again.

The place he merged just now was the heart, so Norton's body must be there! Only by digging open the dragon body that originally belonged to Samson, can Norton be pulled out and forcibly stop the release of the World-Destroying Word Spirit.

Puff! Gu Ye's strengthened arm became like an alchemical knife and easily penetrated the dragon's body. With a strong pull of both hands, Gu Ye finally found Norton curled up like a baby at the place where Samson's heart was originally.

"You really took a lot of effort from me, Dragon King Norton..." Gu Ye raised his arms high, and the power of the divine dragon surrounding his body, along with the accumulated heroic spirit, gathered here.

"Intentional... Boom Fist!!"

The scorching air waves swept over the Moniach like a storm. A deafening explosion sounded on the river. Lu Mingfei could no longer hear anything but the sharp buzzing sound.

What he saw was the same pure white as before. He looked at the direction where Gu Ye was originally with a somewhat despair. Can Gu Ye... really survive such an explosion?

"I'm sorry, there's nothing I can do..." Tears rolled down his eyes and Lu Mingfei lowered his head helplessly.

So much has changed, why is it still the same as before?
"Do you feel powerless? It must be very uncomfortable to watch your friends die, right?" A faint human voice seemed to be heard in the strong wind, breaking the uncomfortable feeling of the continuous buzzing.

"Lu... Mingze?" Lu Mingfei raised his head and looked at the empty deck in front of him. He was a little confused as to whether this was an illusion or not. Zero, Caesar and Professor Mance were clearly by his side just now, but now the entire ship was empty except for him and Lu Mingze who was sitting on the fence.

Even the daylight brought by Zhulong disappeared. The starlight was shining overhead. Looking outside, it was pitch black outside the ship. There were no islands, let alone continents. On the boundless water, the lonely Moniah was floating. There were only two people on the ship, him and the guy in a black suit and lace scarf who claimed to be Lu Mingze.

"The world is about to be destroyed, but you don't seem to be afraid of death?" Lu Mingze sat on the railing beside the boat, swinging his legs, a hint of curiosity on his face.

"I only hate myself for not having the ability to kill the Dragon King with my own hands." Lu Mingfei stared at Lu Mingze's face, as if he wanted to see what was hidden under that malicious smile on his face.

"I know you have some thoughts about me, so you won't let me die. You came here to save me this time, right?"

"Well... you are still so smart. It's actually not wrong to say that." Lu Mingze jumped down from the fence and came to Lu Mingfei. He looked up at his slightly cold face. It was completely different from before. There was not a trace of stupidity in his face. He looked like a qualified... warrior.

"Tell me...what price should I pay to get enough power from you?" Lu Mingfei asked.

"I know you have read "Faust", right?" Lu Mingze did not answer Lu Mingfei directly, but asked him a question instead.

"I have read it, so what?" Lu Mingfei was not surprised at all that Lu Mingze knew his past experiences. He had long understood that this guy had been monitoring him.

"The devil Mephistopheles made a bet with Faust. Mephistopheles became Faust's slave. Once Mephistopheles made Faust satisfied with worldly happiness, the master-servant relationship would be dissolved, and Faust's soul would belong to the devil. My conditions are similar to this. I will sign a contract with you and fulfill your wishes..."

"So you want my soul? Then take it!" Lu Mingfei interrupted Lu Mingze without hesitation, his eyes full of determination.

"No, no, no, not your soul. What I want to exchange is your body..." Lu Mingze shook his head.

"You are always in such a hurry..."

"My body? What do you mean?" Lu Mingfei was a little confused. He knew that the guy in front of him definitely didn't have any obscene intentions.

"I want your life, body and soul! Do you understand?"

"The price is so high, what can you give me?" Lu Mingfei asked calmly. Since there is a demand, he can get what he wants from him.

"Everything... no, almost everything, haven't you experienced it? I once gave you a trial service." Lu Mingze raised his eyebrows.

"Can you get rid of that flaming dragon king?"

“It’s not easy, but it’s possible.” Lu Mingfei suddenly relaxed. Looking at Lu Mingze’s expressionless face and listening to his indifferent tone, he knew that this guy was not lying.

"If you succeed, will I die?" Lu Mingfei asked.

"Listen carefully, the terms of the deal are as follows. The enemies you will face are the four great monarchs of the dragon clan, the King of Bronze and Fire, the King of Sky and Wind, the King of Earth and Mountains, and the King of Ocean and Water. Then, I can accept your summons four times. Now I have become your summoned beast, but each summon will consume a quarter of your life..."

"One quarter of life? Can you guarantee success every time?" Lu Mingfei asked after thinking for a moment.

"Of course... I will only take your payment if I do what you ask me to do. If I don't do it, I won't take your life."

"I understand. It's a good deal. I agree." Lu Mingfei nodded and agreed to Lu Mingze's request.

The two previous instructions, or words, were unexpectedly useful. Now that it is a formal transaction, its power will definitely not be weaker than the trial service he mentioned.

"Then repeat our contract. I will give you four chances to summon me to help you realize four wishes. When all the wishes are fulfilled, or when you feel lonely in this world, my contract to serve you will be terminated, and your life will belong to me." Lu Mingze stared at Lu Mingfei.

"You said... I feel lonely in this world?" Lu Mingfei frowned.

"What does this mean? Are you prepared to break the contract at any time with this condition?"

"No, I don't have the final say, you have the final say... This condition will only take effect when you admit with your own mouth that you feel lonely, and it's not just ordinary loneliness, it's desperate... loneliness." Lu Mingze said.

"Can I do it now?" "I understand. Then give it to me! The power this time." Lu Mingfei continued to urge Lu Mingze.

"Put your hand out..." Lu Mingze ordered Lu Mingfei, and only smiled after he shook his hand.

"For thousands of years, you have been confused about other things, but you have never promised me this. This guy named Gu Ye has made you change so much... He even gave up his bottom line."

"I have lived a miserable life, but I have been able to help Brother Gu four times. It can be said that I died a worthy death. To be honest, I have never thought that I could obtain power comparable to that of the Dragon King..." Lu Mingfei sighed.

"I've been a coward for so long, I have to be cool a few times, right? Sometimes life is nothing compared to other things."

"Oh? For example?" Lu Mingze raised his eyebrows.

"For example... friendship... and dreams." Lu Mingfei looked into Lu Mingze's eyes.

"Hahahahahaha, you are so naive, my brother." Lu Mingze laughed out loud, bent down and couldn't straighten up for a long time.

“Maybe you think I’m naive, but the world always needs some naive people, doesn’t it? The moth knows that the candle flame will burn it to death, but it will still fly into it without hesitation, not because it is stupid, but because this is the only light in its life.” Lu Mingfei said.

“Really… You still naively believe in such cowardly emotions. One day you will be disappointed with all of this. When you are betrayed… My brother, when that day comes, you will definitely say the word ‘loneliness’ to me.” Lu Mingze stood up straight, his face turning a little ugly.

"Power is something that makes people addicted. Once you have experienced power and strength, it is difficult for anyone to turn back. Brother... I hope you will not regret having gained power."

Lu Mingze raised his palm and slapped it loudly on Lu Mingfei's palm.

"This is our contract, deal!"

"Deal... I don't know what you've been through, but I can tell you that I will never regret the choice I made today. You don't understand me... nor do you understand Gu Ye." Lu Mingfei sighed.

“Hehe… No one understands you better than me, and no one understands… the changes that power and authority bring to people better than me.” Lu Mingze shook his head.

"The gathering, spellcasting unit, unlimited mana." Lu Mingze slapped Lu Mingfei's forehead with his palm.

"Noglues, your opponent will not be able to use the Word Spirit, which is equivalent to the Word Spirit·Discipline. Both Word Spirits are only useful today."

“It sounds very powerful... How does it work?” Lu Mingfei was confused. Others needed to chant dragon characters to use their special abilities, so why did he only need to say the cheat code for StarCraft?
"This is of course a Word Spirit, a Word Spirit that belongs to you alone." Lu Mingze said.

"Thank you... If it works well, I'll give you a good review." Lu Mingfei nodded, turned around and prepared to leave.

"So can we dispel the illusion now? I'm going to go help Brother Gu."

"I told you not to be so anxious..." Lu Mingze sighed helplessly and took out a huge box from somewhere.

"The only way to harm the first generation is with alchemical weapons, and they must be the most powerful alchemical weapons!"

"Alchemical weapon? Is this it?" Lu Mingfei asked after looking at the box kicked over by Lu Mingze.

"There are a total of seven deadly weapons in here, forged by Norton himself at the beginning of the Christian era. According to alchemy, he killed the metal with fire, revived it, infused it with spiritual elements, and reorganized it, thus forging weapons powerful enough to kill dragons and himself. Its name is the Seven Deadly Sins!" Lu Mingze explained.

"The seven swords of the Seven Deadly Sins are named Pride, Envy, Wrath, Sloth, Greed, Gluttony and Lust. They judge the seven sins of the world respectively. The one that judges Norton is Wrath. You should use the heaviest one, Wrath. Do you understand?"

"I understand... Then... I'm leaving." Dragging the box with difficulty, Lu Mingfei waved to Lu Mingze.

"Tsk... I really can't do anything about you." Lu Mingze couldn't help but frowning, as if he had seen a familiar scene. He waved his hand and a wave appeared on Lu Mingfei's body. His muscles swelled up and his thin figure became taller.

"Since you are so straightforward today, I will give you another gift, the Word Spirit Bronze Throne, but just like the Word Spirit just now, it is only valid today."

"You are really dedicated..." Lu Mingfei felt his body become full of strength, and the huge box became extremely light. He picked up the box and couldn't help but sigh.

"Of course, all this is so that you can...judge these guys again." A hint of cruelty flashed in Lu Mingze's eyes.

"And I'm also very curious about what your fate will be after gaining such power..."

"What kind of ending?" Lu Mingfei thought for a moment.

"I've never thought about this question, but if I can save the world with Brother Gu, I think it should be a happy ending, right?"

"I hope so... I just hope you don't regret it when I take your body away, and don't think more about yourself when the contract is reached." Lu Mingze sneered.

“That’s good…” Lu Mingfei stopped and spoke softly.

"That's good. You won't understand the bond between people. I only see endless desires in your eyes... and loneliness. If I have the chance, I really want to know why you have become like this, but I can only wait until next time."

"That's not necessary, I'm fine... You'd better take care of yourself!" Lu Mingze snorted coldly, and in an instant the explosion scene appeared in front of Lu Mingfei again.

In the firelight, Gu Ye and Norton flew out together, and Samson's body fell weakly into the Yangtze River.

"Is it my turn to be a hero?" Lu Mingfei touched the box beside him. Very good... the contract just now was real.

“Then... The gathering!” Lu Mingfei opened his mouth, and the privilege he had exchanged his life for immediately became apparent.

Unparalleled power instantly erupted deep within his body. He couldn't help but be pleasantly surprised by the power that was so high that it even surpassed the world. He stretched out his hand and slowly clenched his fist, opened the box, and the seven swords unfolded one after another.

Lu Mingfei grabbed the largest saber, the alchemical knife that could kill Norton and represented rage, and jumped up in front of the surprised eyes of others.
