Asura of Tomorrow's Ark

"I still want to ask you." Nian spread his hands and said inexplicably, "I just lost my mind for a moment, and the snake suddenly disappeared. Wasn't it you who did it?"

"...No," after a moment of silence, Li Ang shook his head, "I just chopped off its head and didn't do anything else."

"So...I don't know why that thing disappeared."

The two looked at each other, unable to understand this incomprehensible situation.

However, as the cold wind and rain hit their bodies, the two quickly put this incomprehensible question behind them.

"Does your injury not matter?" Li Ang asked.

Although the wounds on Nian's body had stopped bleeding, they still looked very miserable.

Hearing Li Ang's question, Nian was stunned for a moment, then shook his head, "It's nothing serious, but how are you? Your back looks a bit badly injured... I'm sorry, I didn't expect to hurt you, and , thank you for protecting Xi."

With no one else around, Nian Yezhong was finally able to express some of his inner thoughts.

"I'll just let Sangpao take a look at it later. There's no need to apologize. I understand."

After confirming that both of them suffered flesh wounds, which would heal naturally even if left alone for a few days, the two quickly dropped the subject. It was not suitable for them to talk about it in depth.

The two kicks they made in Nian blasted them to a place not far from the original cave. It didn't take much effort for them to return to the previous place, and found the two intact paintings from under a pile of sand and gravel. Picture scroll.

It doesn’t matter if the painting Adele and the others hide in is broken. At most, all of them and the supplies stored in it will be ejected, causing a gorgeous explosion. If the painting in Sagazaki City is If something goes wrong, it will be troublesome. Not only are there 10,000+ people living there, but there is also an extremely troublesome hd'si sealed inside.

However, the quality of what Xi painted is still guaranteed.

When Nian used his own ability to build a cover for this basically destroyed cave, Li Ang suddenly thought of a question and asked casually,

"By the way, what was the chess piece that appeared on that person before? It seems like you and Xi both know each other."

Chapter 82 Heizi

Li Ang clearly remembered that even if he lost the two creatures named Ajiao and Xiaocao, Xi was still a little hesitant and unwilling to be the one who stood out.

But after the black chess piece appeared, Xi's attitude changed drastically. The existence of that thing directly prompted Xi to make up his mind, and asked Zi Zai to plow all the surrounding ground.

So in Xi's mind... that black chess piece may be more threatening than the ability to erase existence.

"You said that..."

The movement of Nian's hand was inaudible, and then she connected the metal dome she had made with the remaining lower part of the cave, then she sighed and said quietly, "That's right... This should really be related to you." Tell me, I originally wanted to tell you another time, but since you asked now... let me tell you."

After placing the dome, Nian made a metal bed and placed Xi, who was still awake, on the bed. He sat beside her and let Xi rest on her lap.

"You should know that each of us incarnations has our own ideas, right? Some people have integrated into the Great Yan, some are trying to use the power of the Great Yan to prevent the resurrection of the Sui Beast, some want to take revenge on the Great Yan, and some They don’t want to care about anything and live as long as they can, and some people simply have lost their minds and actually want to actively promote the resurrection of the Sui Beast.”

As Nian spoke, he gently stroked Xi's long black hair. Only at this time did the two of them look like a pair of sisters.

"...Is it okay to tell me these things?" Listening to Nian's story, Li Ang's mood was a little subtle.

"What does it matter? Aren't you involved anyway?" Nian waved his hand nonchalantly, "It's not important whether you are or not. What's important is that those people now think you are, so you can only be. .”

Although what Nian just said sounded a bit riddle, Li Ang still understood what he meant.

It doesn't matter whether he is the incarnation of the Sui Beast or not. What is important is that if those people above the court think he is, then he must be the Sui Beast incarnation.

How arrogant...

Li Ang smiled, but he didn't really care much.

He is not the kind of weakling who can be manipulated by others, and his current identity is not from the Yan Kingdom. If those brainless guys dare to take action, just chop off their claws. The worst is to run away anyway, Yan Kingdom's The atmosphere just made Li Ang a little nostalgic, and he didn't really intend to take root here.

This is a different place after all.

Nian paused, and then continued, "Brother, needless to say, we, the beast incarnations, can stay in Great Yan safely, largely because of the existence of eldest brother, eldest brother... he can be regarded as one of the most important figures in this country. one of the pillars.”

In other words, as long as their eldest brother does not fall, Dayan's actions towards the incarnation of the Sui Beast can only be limited to testing. Of course, there is no way to control the force majeure of an individual's sudden brain failure.

"Eldest sister... your sister... although she once joined the army under the persuasion of eldest brother, she actually doesn't care about most things. Now she doesn't care about anything at all. She just stays in Shang Shu City." Nian couldn't help but scratch his head.

Ling's character... At best, he is carefree and unrestrained; at worst, he just muddles along. Even if he can hang out for a day, even when the Sui Beast is resurrected and all their Sui Beast incarnations dissipate, Ling also behaves very open-minded and indifferent. look like.

Nian completely disagreed with the eldest sister's thoughts, but if the brothers and sisters had anything to do with Ling, she would still be very happy to help.

What they are talking about now has little to do with this eldest sister, and Zang Nian only mentioned it a little bit.

"Third brother Mao's ability is related to agriculture. Before I left Dayan, he was still working as an errand in the Ministry of Household Affairs. I don't know what the situation is now, but they should be the most comfortable among us."

After all, who would have trouble with a farmer?Do you still want to eat?

"Third sister Jie Yijiazi disappeared before. Now we don't even know whether she is alive or dead. The second sister and the fourth sister have no intention of getting involved in Dayan's troubles and left early."

"Fourth Brother is angry, he is the guy with brain problems that I mentioned. Maybe all the resentment when Sui Beast died is on him. He always thinks about how to take revenge on Dayan and resurrect Sui Beast every day. He was taught a lesson by his elder brother last time. After a meal, I felt a little calmer, and now I don't know where I am hiding." Nian looked like he had a headache, "If the beast Sui is resurrected here, then the things here are definitely inseparable from him."

"His ability... is to control emotions? I don't know how to describe it more accurately. In short, he is a good hand at fanning flames and hiding behind the scenes. In a head-on fight, even Xi can hang that guy up and beat him. "

Although Nian likes to bully Xi, her strength in the Sui beast incarnation is not weak. The power of Zi Zi is obvious to all, but Xi doesn't like to show it very much.

"I am ranked ninth, and that guy Xi is ranked No. 11. We are both firmly against the Sui beast, but our methods are slightly different." Nian shrugged.

"Our youngest brother, Chuan, is a pretty good cook. As for fighting...it's better not to make things difficult for him."

This time, probably because there was no one else around, Nian briefly introduced all the other incarnations of the Sui beast. Xi had been living in the world in his paintings all year round, so it was impossible for him to know the current situation of other brothers and sisters as well as Nian.

Excluding the tenth incarnation of the Nian beast who has some relationship with Li Ang, the only one Nian skipped just now is the second-ranked one, their 'second brother'.

"So, that black chess piece has something to do with your second brother?"

"...Yeah." Nian nodded with a complicated look, "To be honest, I really don't want to see that guy. He is definitely the most lonely one among us...much more lonely than Xi, that is. Only the eldest sister and the third brother can communicate with him."

"And since the third sister disappeared, he has become even weirder. Others can't understand what he is thinking every day."

"That black chess piece is his ability. He can divide his consciousness, just like the gods divide agents, and once again divide his own incarnation... He can even control other people through this chess piece, the one just now Man, if nothing else goes wrong, he is the unlucky guy controlled by my good second brother."

Nian sighed and said, "Since he appears here, we will have some trouble this time."

Chapter 83 Second Brother

In Nian's memory, her second brother was a very troublesome guy.

But Nian's self-awareness was relatively late, and he didn't know much about his second brother. Most of the things he heard about him were from his eldest sister, Ling.

Although the second brother was born very early, he is actually not very powerful. The clones he created are very weak and basically useless, while those with a slightly firmer will can basically resist his control, not to mention other clones. The Sui beast was transformed, which put him in a very embarrassing situation and he had to focus on other things.

When self-awareness was born, her second brother was already a conspirator that made people talk about it.

Behind many major events that happened in the Yan Kingdom and even in the history of Terra, he seemed to be behind the scenes, but this was just a guess, and no one could come up with substantive evidence.

But yes, it would be a pity not to be the mastermind behind the scenes with his ability. Lao Qixi can at most stir up public resentment and add some trouble to Dayan, but if the second brother's ability is not good, it is really possible to subvert the entire Dayan.

Therefore, because he danced too happily, he was arrested by Dayan not long after, and he has been imprisoned in Dayan's capital until now.

After all, even the complete Sui is no match for Dayan. As long as they are willing to pay a certain price, they can capture any one of the incarnations of the Sui beast. It is just a question of whether it is cost-effective.

The second brother's ability is too dangerous, and Dayan cannot let him develop.

Since this god's power is difficult to detect through ordinary methods, the arrogant Sui would not use such despicable methods, but the second brother is different. He can be said to be completely unscrupulous in using it. , it would be funny if one day one of his clones was allowed to climb into the position of the Three Lords, Six Ministries and Nine Ministers.

But Dayan also didn't dare to do anything to him. God knows how many back-ups he had deployed in Dayan, and how many of his clones were wandering on this land. Once the two sides completely broke up, the harm caused would be in a sense It's more serious than the resurrection of the old beast.

He promised not to do anything to him until he found a way to instantly kill all the clones through his body.

Nian recalled what the eldest sister told her back then, "Look, what's most powerful about that guy is not his layout ability, the most terrifying thing is his learning ability."

"Did you know? When we first became aware of each other, his chess skills were not even as good as mine. He could win or lose with me even if he taught me nine-piece chess. But after a few games, I didn't dare to continue playing with him. When it comes to chess, the speed of his progress... is really terrifying. When the time comes, it will be him who gives me nine pieces, and I won't let him."

Although your sister is also a bad chess player, this is enough to show how terrifying their second brother's learning speed is.

"So...can you understand how I feel now? I would rather be taught a lesson by my eldest brother than see my second brother appear in front of me,"

That's right. Nian shuddered and looked like he couldn't bear to look back on the past. "I think we should run away now. Second brother has already discovered us. If we run fast enough, we might be able to avoid him." calculation."

It seemed that the second brother named 'Yi' had really left a deep impression on Nian, to the point where Nian couldn't even think of a confrontation. His first thought was to run away.

troublesome guy...

After listening to Nian's description, Li Ang also felt a little headache.

But... aren't there too many people in this world who have the ability to transfer their body, consciousness, or soul?Why do I seem to see so many of them everywhere I go?

And that Yi seems to have the ability to clone himself, which is even more troublesome... Although his frontal combat effectiveness is not worth mentioning, Li Ang is not afraid of others fighting him... On the contrary, it is this kind of guy who is plotting behind the scenes. Troublesome.

Li Ang thought for a while and said, "I think...if your second brother is really as smart as you said, why do you think you can escape his plot by walking faster?"

"Huh?" Nian was stunned for a moment.

"Think about it, maybe even your return to Dayan at this time is part of his plan."

"Yes..."

Nian's face fell instantly. Based on her understanding of her second brother, it was obvious that this possibility was higher.

"Then what should we do now..." Nian said sadly.

She was not the type who was good at using her brain. Was there ever a time when her second brother didn't clearly arrange it?

And the most terrifying thing now is that no one knows what purpose Yi has. Since Jie disappeared, his behavior has become more and more radical. If his body was not still imprisoned in the capital of Great Yan, God knows What will he do.

"Let's take one step at a time."

In fact, Li Ang had no good solution, so he could only make do with it, "However, this place is really lively. If the people in Si Suitai knew that there were so many incarnations of the old beast here, they would probably explode on the spot, right?"

Nian, Xi, Yi, possibly related Xie, and Li Ang, almost half of the incarnations of the Nian Beast appeared in this mountain range.

Yanguo has been trying its best to avoid this kind of situation. It has used various methods to throw the incarnations of these beasts to different places to prevent them from joining together. The occasional meeting between one or two people is still within the tolerance range. But now this situation is estimated to have exceeded their expectations.

"Maybe more," Nian shook his head, "Sister your sister may arrive here at any time."

"I don't know how to describe it, but your sister's ability allows her to ignore the limitations of time and space. She can even travel through time and go back to the past. No matter where she is now, she can be in front of us in an instant."

Li Ang's brows couldn't help but jump. Even if this ability has limitations, it's a bit too exaggerated... Nian's ability is not at the same level at all, but even so, Ling is still not the strongest among them, and he doesn't know them. How powerful must be the big brother...

However, Ling should be the back-up man left by the old guy Zhang Daoling. She obviously knew their group's actions in the Tianyue Mountains.

Okay...it's really exciting now, I hope there won't be any surprises...

During the exchange between Li Ang and Nian, Xi gradually regained consciousness.

Just when she opened her eyes, her first words were,

"Sister! Second brother...Second brother is here!"

She even called out the word "sister", which shows how stressed she is.

"I know, I know, I've seen it all."

Nian rubbed Xi's head and said, "Relax, we are talking about this now."

Chapter 83 Good News and Bad News

"Is this something that can be solved just by talking?"

Xi patted Nian's hand away and said anxiously, "We must make preparations as soon as possible! Second brother will not show mercy to us!"

"Yes, you are right, we need to prepare as soon as possible," Nian said indifferently, "then can you tell us what we should do now?"

The atmosphere suddenly became silent, and Xi didn't know how to answer.

Facing the second brother who was full of conspiracies, they should make some preparations, but when asked what exactly they should do, Xi was a little confused.

They don't even know the purpose of Yi's appearance here, let alone make plans in advance.

Looking at Xi who fell silent, Nian shook his head slightly and said, "Calm down now, so it's not that I don't plan to do anything, but that there isn't much we can do."

"We will move on when the rain stops. If the second brother has any plans, it is impossible for him to reveal nothing. We will make plans then."

Listening to Nian's words, Xi gradually calmed down.

"Besides, the second brother's real body is still imprisoned in the capital. The only one who can come here is his clone. In fact, it is not that difficult to deal with."

Of course, Nian was just comforting Xi. For a guy like Yi who was good at using intrigues, it didn't make much difference whether the person who came here was a clone or a real person. Anyway, they were all Zhan Wushu who could be killed casually.

"Speaking of which, Xi, it seems like you haven't called me sister for a long time. The call you made just now felt pretty good."

Nian did not miss this good opportunity to tease Xi. She stretched out her index finger to lift Xi's chin and said with a frivolous expression, "Come on, call me sister a few more times."

"roll."

Xi rolled her eyes and said concisely that she didn't want to talk to this guy at all.

At this time, Li Ang was thinking about a question.
