I'm not a tailed beast

Chapter 380 The Final Test (Two in One)

Crowley and Ferid's fight ended with Ferid begging for mercy.

On the morning of the second day when the accident happened, someone quietly left without saying goodbye.

They still remember that there are large wheat fields, fruit forests in the forest, and a safe area behind them. As long as they go back, they will be able to live well.

Anyway, it will become a living area sooner or later, there is no need to go to more dangerous places to explore.

Ferid didn't stop him, and even asked a few more times in a serious manner.

"Does anyone else want to go back? Maybe there are more dangerous enemies ahead."

Good guy, as soon as I said this, more than a dozen people left.

"Master Crowley, Lord Ferid really doesn't care?"

Qisi looked at the somewhat shabby team and asked in a low voice.

"Why don't you care? But if people want to leave, they can't be kept. It's better to say it earlier, and everyone will be happy."

After the magic stick's speech last night, he vaguely felt that something was waiting for the advance team ahead.

Maybe the gods still have the final test. After all, in many stories, the protagonists have gone through hardships, and only those who have been tested will be rewarded.

How could a brave man who flinched halfway on his way to defeat the devil be written into myths and legends?
Ferid was still full of smiles, and he was not at all depressed because someone quit.

The will of those who leave is not firm, but what remains is the essence, after the primary election.

"Very well, since there are still people following, let's go!"

The road began to become difficult to walk.

In the afternoon, an endless sea of ​​sand suddenly appeared in front of everyone.

"How can there be a desert in Japan? It's impossible!"

Tong Xiaoya exclaimed, but her whole body was lying on the sand, which was real sand.

"It's so soft, Sanye, come and try it."

"No, it's embarrassing. How old are you, and you still act like a child when you see a toy."

"No, I just want to see if it's true."

Tong Xiaoya stood up blushing, since the ghost in the cursed weapon disappeared, she became more cheerful, unknowingly affecting the people around her.

Crowley couldn't understand either. He flew several hundred meters above the sky in one breath, and when he looked down, he really saw an endless desert.

"When did it appear?"

As a vampire, the richness of knowledge far exceeds that of a human being, not to mention Crowley, a former crusader knight.

The formation of deserts cannot be achieved in a day, and Japan does not have the conditions to form deserts.

Then it can only be arranged by the gods.

To cross the desert, the most important thing is water.

Thinking of this, he immediately flew to Ferid's side.

"Ferid, do you have enough water ready?"

"Of course, but the water we carry is far from enough. Faith is needed at this time. A firm will and faith can keep us on the path guided by the gods... Then... oh, don't do it, I won't say it gone."

"It's almost there."

After a day of repairing and carrying enough water, the advance group entered the desert.

The desert seems to never end, and as a guide, Ferid still walks ahead.

But he didn't feel very well either, his lips were as dry as bark, and his originally fair and tender face was tanned to a wheat color.

In less than a day, such a big change has taken place.

In the whole team, only Crowley, Qiss and Scrude were completely unaffected.

But as they walked forward, Keith and Scruder also began to have a strange emotion in their hearts.

"Master Crowley, are you feeling unwell?"

"No, are you feeling unwell?"

Crowley asked strangely.

Keith and Scruder looked at each other, only to realize that only two of them had symptoms.

"No...we're fine."

For some reason, Scrude didn't tell Crowley about this strange emotion, but pulled Qisi down a few positions.

After walking a little further away, Qi Si muttered dissatisfiedly.

"Why are you keeping it from Lord Crowley?"

"No, it's not a secret. Don't you realize that we are different from before?"

"What's the difference? What are you talking about, Scrudder."

"Think about it carefully, since you can't suck blood, have you lost even the desire to kill, and you can't help but feel happy when you see beautiful flowers on the road, and you can calm down and listen to ordinary people telling their stories."

Qisi wanted to refute, but the words came to her lips and she didn't say it.

Originally, she liked to kill people the most, watching those people die in a pool of blood, and she loved to drink Lord Crowley's blood.

But now there is no desire to kill at all.

As Scrude said, not to mention Lord Crowley's blood, even hearing that a life was hurt, he would feel palpitations.

Although every time it is well concealed, only you know the real situation.

She is no longer a vampire, not only can't kill people, but the kindness in her heart even swells to the point that she doesn't want to harm any life.

The same is true for Scrude, and it is precisely because of this change that the two of them are terrified.

Afraid of being noticed by Crowley, he kept suppressing his heart.

It's just that Qisi has a big mind and Scrude has a more delicate mind, so she has been hiding it well.

Well, I thought I was hiding it well.

Not far away, did Crowley look in the direction of Keith and the two of them?

"Are you sure you don't need to worry about it?"

"It's not children, as long as they follow along, it's fine."

Crowley had known what an elf was from Ferid early on.

However, when it comes to World Tree, there are some surprises.

"What kind of tree can be called the world tree? How do people grow from the tree?"

"The answer to this question can only be known by seeing it with your own eyes. I don't understand if you ask me. Anyway, it's right that you are very powerful. At that time, you will no longer be Mr. Crowley as others say. Maybe you will call Qi instead. Lord Si, Lord Scrude, haha!"

Crowley ignored Ferid's ridicule, this guy must have plans in mind.

After getting along for so many years, he still chose to believe in Ferid.

While joking, Ferid suddenly looked serious.

"The second wave of tests is coming, get ready, it may be the last wave."

"Is it undead again? I'm ready this time, no one will die."

"Not sure yet, maybe a natural disaster."

A group of sandstorms, stretching for hundreds of miles, covering the sky and the sun, came menacingly from a distance.

The advancing group immediately noticed something was wrong.

But they have no experience dealing with sandstorms at all.

Many people panicked and didn't know what to do.

"What happened? Is the sky falling?"

"The sand is blown into the air and we will be buried alive!"

"It's the god's fault! It's because there are disrespectful people among us! If I knew I would go back, why did I follow along?"

"Get down, get down!"

"It's useless, even such a big rock has been rolled up, we will all die here!"

At the moment of life and death, life is full of vicissitudes, and all kinds of feelings come to mind.

Some went mad on the spot, weeping bitterly about their sins, about the fears hidden in their hearts; some kept blaming Ferid, Crowley, everyone he saw, and even cursed at the gods.

Anyway, I'm going to die, so what's the point of respect?
But there are also companions who embrace each other in times of crisis and enjoy the last moment of peace.

There is peace and calm on their faces, but there is no reluctance and anger.

It is enough to be able to face death with the people you want to be with.

The sandstorm is getting closer and closer, flying sand and rocks, rolling up everything, with unparalleled power.

The entire sky darkened, and the sun was completely blocked.

In the sandstorm, there are even faint figures of undead.

Holding broken bone swords, they were murderous, far exceeding any undead army seen before.

As if the sandstorms were what they caused.

Many people who were originally strong have also collapsed. This is like a catalyst, which has aroused the emotions of many people.

"Impossible, we can't stop such a large number of undead army, we have to escape."

"Where are we going? We won't be caught in the back within a few minutes."

"so what should I do now?"

"How do I know what to do!"

The two companions of the Emperor Ghost Army, who were called brothers before, glared at them like enemies on the verge of swords.

It seemed as if they would draw out their weapons and fight each other on the spot in the next second.

But Yuichiro Hyakuya stood up.

"Stop arguing, aren't we companions?"

As a fellow viral spreader, Yuichiro's words had a calming effect.

"Now, listen to me, dig the sand down, we bury ourselves, although we don't know if it will work, but if it works, it will be fine?"

"good idea."

"Dig!"

Junyue Shi Fang He and Yu continued to praise him, and even though they didn't know if it would be useful, it was better than just sitting and waiting to die.

"It's useless. Look at the stones on the sandstorm. Even such a big stone can be blown away. If you keep digging, how deep can you dig?"

The captain of the Aihara team, Aihara Xiangzi, said in despair.

"As long as there is still a chance, as long as my companion is still by my side, I will not give up."

Hyakuya Yuichiro pulled out the ghost-free sword, and digged desperately with the sword.

"Don't be idle, everyone, maybe this method will work!"

Tong Xiaoya shouted loudly, but unfortunately there were very few responders.

Not far away, Ferid and Crowley sitting on the sand dune were very calm.

"No matter how you look at it, no matter how many times you look at it, human nature is still an ugly thing. Human beings can destroy the world for the sake of power. In the final analysis, it is their self-destruction genes."

Crowley was also a little panicked at first, but Ferid motioned him to be quiet. After observing carefully for a while, he also saw that there was something wrong with the sandstorm.

No matter how loud the momentum is, the sandstorm is still fake.

Like a phantom, if such a violent sandstorm is at such a close distance, the wind speed alone can lift people up.

Unfortunately, no one noticed.

Instead, a farce of all kinds of life was staged in front of him.

"Not yet? Some people may commit suicide in despair."

Crowley pointed to a man who was crying bitterly, shouting desperately that I don't want to die, but took out a dagger and pointed it at his heart.

Sometimes, dying is more painful than dying.

Being caught by the undead, it is better to solve it by yourself.

"No, since it's a test, there are successes and failures. No one forced them to make a choice. They always choose by themselves, so even if they die, they can't blame others."

Mikael, who was assigned to the Xiaoya team, also noticed something was wrong.

As a vampire, his sentience is significantly better than others.

Seeing that he was about to break through, Ferid sighed and stood up.

A loud shout attracted everyone's attention, and it also attracted Mikael's sight.

"God says everything will be peaceful!"

Time seemed to stand still for a moment.

The sound echoed between heaven and earth.

Everything fell silent in an instant, and the sandstorm that seemed to destroy everything dissipated immediately under Ferid's command.

How can there be any sandstorms and undead in front of me?

In addition to the endless desert, there is also an oasis.

It's just that there is only one big tree less than ten meters above the oasis.

"world Tree?"

Crowley frowned, then looked at Keith and Scrude, his eyes were blurred, as if he had lost consciousness, and he began to walk slowly towards the trees.

"Crowley, look at these two guys, I'll go over there."

"it is good."

When Ferid walked into the advance group, many people looked rather ugly.

After pushing away a few people, a dead body with a dagger stuck in the heart was exposed, unable to withstand the fear.

Before he died, he couldn't close his eyes, and there was fear and relief on his face.

"This is the end!"

Ferid yelled suddenly.

"No matter how many times you worship the gods you made, if your inner beliefs are not firm enough, and you always have doubts and disrespect to the gods, no matter how much you worship, the gods will not forgive you!"

"Look at your ugliness just now. God saves those who seek help, but not those who seek death!"

The faces of those who originally wanted to attack Ferid turned pale.

Recalling the scolding of the gods just now, I only feel that the fear in my heart is deeper, more fearful than facing the sandstorm and the army of undead.

On the contrary, those few people who saw through everything and remained calm were full of joy.

They felt that their choice was right, but when they took out the statue of the god hidden in their arms, they suddenly found that the statue seemed to be glowing.

And the roughness of the carving is also gone, as if the real shrunken god is the same.

"This is a miracle, the gods have manifested themselves!"

"The gods have been watching us and protecting us."

The light emitted by the idol is very warm, dispelling the fatigue of these firm believers.

Even the strength has increased a lot.

Many people also realized something, and quickly took out the statues they made.

Some people's idols did not change at all, but others' gods also glowed.

"Micah, mine is also bright! Haha, I have been approved by the gods. My lord, please resurrect my family members. I beg you. As long as the family members come back, I am willing to give everything I have."

Hyakuya Yuichiro's crying made Miga's heart ache, and he was about to comfort him, but saw a scene that made him also stunned.

"Xiaoyou...your idol...the light is disappearing..."

"what?"

Hyakuya Yuichiro wiped away his tears and said in surprise.

"Is the god angry? I just want to resurrect my family members, and I didn't say anything disrespectful."

"No... look behind you..."

Mikael patted Hyakuya Yuichiro on the shoulder.

The stiff neck slowly turned back, and familiar faces appeared in Hyakuya Yuichiro's eyes.
