Chapter 510 The Defense of the Umbrella (IV)

Transaction?

Gu Shen looks warily at the throne in the dark.

He is very sensitive to this word. “Deal” is not a gift, but something that both parties have to “give”.

“How to trade?”

Gu Shen did not rush to deny, but spoke carefully.

This is the spiritual world.

The Time Flow Speed in the outside world is greatly slowed down here. Although I don’t know how this guy did it… But at least staying here is a good thing for me, he can get more more time to think.

“The current Time Flow Speed is ten to one.”

It seemed to see through Gu Shen’s mind.

The shadow on the throne said: “According to the development of the real world, in thirty seconds, you will be overtaken by the ‘Original Storm’, the realm of truth that you are currently supporting. , unable to resist this level of attack, your fleshy body will be crushed by the storm in the thirty-first second… So in the spiritual world, this dialogue can only last for three hundred seconds at most.”

Gu Shen understands what he means.

Three hundred seconds is five minutes.

This conversation…however maintained, will end in five minutes.

Because in five minutes, the storm will end everything, and this is also the biggest trump card for the Sombra of the Throne to negotiate with himself.

“What do I need to pay?”

Gu Shen is no nonsense, and the next sentence directly points to the essence of this transaction.

He always believed in one truth.

There is no such thing as a free lunch.

This is a life-threatening transaction. If you rashly agree, the Libra side will probably hide a huge price that you can’t bear…

The Shadow of the Throne His face was shrouded in shadows, and he couldn’t see his true expression, but he clearly laughed when he heard Gu Shen blunt’s words.

There seemed to be an expression of admiration and interest in the dark face.

“I said…you don’t need to pay for anything, do you believe it?”

He sat languidly, laughing magnetically.

“You just have to nodded, make this deal with me, and take it easy. Don’t worry about the rest, it’ll be over.”

It’s really nothing No need to pay.

Only noded is required.

Yes.

The deal will close.

The youngster standing under the light was indifferent.

Gu Shen stared at the shadow, and from the moment he entered the spiritual world, he silently counted the time here… This conversation has already started for fifty seconds, the guy’s The reaction was very calm, neither rushed nor slow, as if he had settled himself.

Gu Shen has no confidence in the Ruler of Truth’s master, Hades.

In his understanding, this is a “runaway” king.

How can one believe the spirit left behind by a “out-of-control person”?

And the “out of control” accident aside.

Twenty years ago, Pluto was also known as “brutal”, “indifferent”, “cunning”, “weird”… This is a divine throne with chaotic positions and unruly behavior.

“Nothing to do, just nodded?” Gu Shen spoke again, confirming.

The shadow on the throne nodded slowly.

“Here, as long as the spirit resonates, we can make a ‘deal’.”

He explained with a smile: “We are currently in a state of candid souls, I ask, And if you approve it, then it’s… a deal is established.”

Frank soul, it’s not the first time for Gu Shen… In the “spirit world”, every time he meets Chu Ling, It can be regarded as a “frank soul”.

Only this time, it is completely different!

He was making a deal with the devil, face to face with the devil, “naked” without reservation.

Under the cloak of human beings, what really cannot be hidden is not the “skin”, but the “spirit”.

The dark shadow sitting on the throne sees his soul clearly, perfectly clear, anger, joy, pain, joy, can’t hide in this space…

Gu Shen meets the shadow.

One hundred and thirty-one seconds.

One hundred and thirty-two seconds.

He seemed hesitant, but his eyes were calm.

Gu Shen soon spoke up.

“I don’t want it.”

The three neat and tidy words made that silhouette leaning lazily on the throne, almost fell down, and slipped his elbows over the armrests of the throne, He quickly straightened himself up and raised the volume to suppress his surprise: “Are you crazy and don’t want to live anymore?”

He was very confident in the deal he proposed, but he never thought that Gu Shen would directly gave such a response.

“In thirty seconds, the storm will come up, and then…”

“No need to repeat.” Gu Shen interrupted him and said calmly: ” I don’t want to make such a deal with you.”

The shadow on the throne was startled.

He narrowed his eyes and chewed on what Gu Shen had just said.

Not “I don’t want to deal with you.”

Rather “don’t want to do this with you”.

It’s not that this kid doesn’t want to trade, but that he doesn’t meet the current status quo. Does he want to put forward additional conditions?

“You’re running out of time.”

He held his breath, coldly said: “There’s still…”

“One hundred and fifty seconds. After two and a half minutes, I will leave this spiritual space.” Gu Shen said calmly: “Well… in order to avoid your repetition, I will take the initiative to say it, by then, I will be crushed to pieces by the storm. .”

Not waiting for the other person to speak.

“Actually, I want to make this transaction.” Gu Shen took the initiative to continue the topic: “If you offer a very expensive price, such as paying a part of the ‘blazing fire’, the accumulation in the Pure Land will be A lot of ‘source quality’ for a long time, maybe I will consider it, because this is a clear price transaction, and my life is worth these things.”

Slightly paused.

“But… there is no price, it is the highest price, you don’t need anything, you only need me nodded, that means you want to take away more from me than this.”

“…”

The Shadow of the Throne fell silent.

He propped his jaw up and stared at Gu Shen silently, a little curious what else this kid wanted to say.

“Somewhat interesting, your words.”

Gu Shen said slowly: “What you just said was that ‘we’ would be crushed by the storm, although I brought Eleven people fleeing for their lives together… But in the eyes of a devil like you, they shouldn’t be worthy of cherishment, right? If this is a deal, then you know very well that these people’s lives are not worthy of release. It takes weight on this side of the scale.”

Gu Shen is very sensitive to every word of this guy.

He had a vague feeling in his heart.

The “you” in Sombra of the Throne’s mouth does not refer to himself and this squad.

It’s…the distant, spiritually linked Chu Ling.

Then this is very terrifying.

How did he know the existence of “Chu Ling”?

Is it true that when we meet here at the moment, all the information in my soul cannot be concealed from its inspection?

“…continue.”

The Throne Sombra didn’t respond, but motioned for Gu Shen to continue.

No response, even if it is the default.

Gu Shen glanced at the dark tall shadow and continued: “Of course, these details are not that important. The most important thing is the ‘deal’ itself… You took the initiative to find me , and indicated his identity, to carry out this transaction…”

Gu Shen paused.

And the shadow on the throne frowned and asked, “Is there any problem?”

“Of course.”

Gu Shen smiled, “actively. The ‘devil’ who comes to the door is not a qualified ‘devil’, you should know my character, in extreme cases, I am a ‘gambler’ and I can make a ‘life gamble’ move.”

After discovering the “abnormal wind pressure”…

Change the escape route and take the shortest route!

Take out the Ruler of Truth and hypnotize the entire square!

These things are all things that can be gambled by a lunatic, but Gu Shen does it well, and his heart is calm and there is no turbulence. He would rather make mistakes and be swallowed by the storm than Do nothing and wait to die.

A real “gambler” is not just about having the courage to “bet your life”.

There are even more trump cards of “turning defeat into victory”!

“So you think, how can a gambler refuse a ‘live’ deal?”

Gu Shen exclaimed: “So you appeared, in the middle of my life. In the last five minutes, the deal was proposed, and you were wrong.”

“You shouldn’t have given me five minutes, it’s too long.”

Gu Shen faintly said: “If I were you, I would only give the other party ten seconds. After listening to the transaction, I have no time to think, and I have no right to refuse… In that case, you can get everything you want.”

The shadow on the throne re-examined Gu Shen, seemingly lost in thought.

Under the shroud of black mist, it was impossible to see his true expression.

But in fact, he was “shocked” by what Gu Shen had just said.

Although his body is shrouded in shadows, he looks like a devil, but if you want to talk about the degree of madness, it seems that the youngster on the opposite side is more serious.

Gu Shen is more of a real “devil” than he is.

“I decided to reject your proposed deal because I think you need it more than I do.” Gu Shen slowed down, “I’ll tell you why, there are still ninety seconds left. , don’t interrupt, otherwise ‘we’ won’t have enough time.”

“From the very beginning, you become very relaxed and don’t care about time… But from a hundred seconds later, your sitting posture changes. Now, I’m counting the time, and you’re counting the time, and obviously the ebbing of time is putting pressure on you.”

“What are you afraid of? Others… If you think about it carefully, it is not difficult to find that the essential result of the failure of the transaction is that I die in the ‘storm’. You know very well that I have no other power to fight the next disaster, so what you are afraid of is obvious. now…”

“You’re afraid of my death.”

Gu Shen said: “You’re more afraid of my fleshy body being shattered by the storm than if the deal failed…as long as I Still alive, even if this time the deal is not done, there may be a chance next time, but once I die, then the deal is completely closed. You want my ‘fleshy body’, the ultimate purpose of this deal , is ‘looting’ or ‘occupying’ my fleshy body. The premise is that this fleshy body is alive and usable.”

The man in the dark was truly speechless.

What did he want to say.

But not a word came out.

It’s not because he is powerless to justify…but Gu Shen’s timing is too good, at this moment the countdown of the “spiritual world” has reached the last thirty seconds.

“Don’t worry.”

Gu Shen indifferently said: “Here is the deal I propose, you activate the ‘full power’ of Ruler of Truth to help me fight this storm , these forces are under my control, and in return I will thank you for your help, and I promise you that we will have another chance to talk next time we meet…”

heard.

The shadow on the throne was astonished. He absolutely did not expect that this “transaction” would evolve into this.

“You can choose to refuse. We will die together, buried by the storm of the [Old World]. In a place like this, no one will pick up this ruler in another five hundred years.”

“But you have no choice, because only if we live together, you have the probability of the next transaction.”

Gu Shen looked at him calmly.

The shadow got up in anger.

His deep voice echoed throughout the spiritual world.

“You’re threatening me?!”

Gu Shen didn’t say anything unnecessary.

He just kept a calm and indifferent gaze, returning the coldness he had felt in the dark to the long-awaited devil.

There are only ten seconds left.

Gu Shen opened his mouth and counted down the last ten numbers to the shadow of the throne.

“Ten…Nine…”

The storm of the real world roared, as if it had descended to this illusory world.

There is a vague illusion that something is torn.

That seems to be a barrier between the soul and fleshy body.

Or something more solid… Judging from the picture reflected in this pure land space, the “realm of truth” has produced shattered cracks, and the violent Originium on the outer edge of the storm is torn apart. Break everything, and even the field of “Ruler of Truth” will inevitably be cut.

“Five…four…”

The shadow on the throne looked at the youngster standing in front of him expressionlessly.

This is a countdown to death that symbolizes the end of life.

But that youngster doesn’t seem to care at all.

If it’s a gamble…then the price of losing the gamble is truly nothing.

In this world Is there really such a “human being”?

The shadow clenched his fists, and his body began to tremble faintly.

“Three.”

However, Gu Shen’s countdown voice didn’t even tremble.

“Two.”

“One…”

The last voice has not yet fallen.

The game is over.

“get lost!”

An angry roar sounded with “One” in the spiritual world, the darkness exploded, and the large pieces of light shattered. The silhouette of the tall and hanging “suspense wood” was fragmented, and the meeting in the entire spiritual space ended.

In the real world.

Gu Shen opened his eyes, and an unusually cold voice sounded from his Divine Sea.

“This is the only time, the deal is done.”

The fighting golden hoop used to restrain the Ninth Layer spirit strength shattered with a bang, and the power from the ring ruler poured in frantically. Between Gu Shen’s eyebrows.

The realm of truth of silver white becomes bright like a big moon at this moment.

In an instant, the destructive power of the outer edge of the storm was swallowed up!

Gu Shen issued his first order to the real world shrouded in the realm of truth.

“Increased energy combustion efficiency——”

“1000%.”
