Nidhogg Can't Keep Up

The black robe was lifted, and the bright golden stars rolled in the wind, like a leaping dragon, like a roaring tiger, giving people an unexpected beauty and ferocity.The moment the robe sleeves came down, behind him, a pair of leather boots stepped into what was considered his domain.

"You seem to like being here very much." The metal-like voice was like the ear-piercing sound of rubbing the tip of a knife against the glass, which made one's teeth sore.The same black robe is painted with a round of setting sun, which is very bright and eye-catching, but the fabric of the robe is so simple that it looks like an ascetic monk who has worked hard in the deep mountains and old forests just to get a scoop of clear springs. Unity and harmony.

The pair of leather boots on his feet is the unique mark of that person. Among the three masters of Huangya, he is the only one who wears those things, and only he is given the honor of wearing those things.

"Since you know, Li, what are you doing here?" The unceremonious voice expressed the master's indifference. The relationship between the three elders of Huangya can never be described as a friend, if it is not the same Belonging to the same owner, they may have been darkened long ago.Even so, the indifference and hostility between each other is commonplace. If there is no order from the Pope, things like helping each other will never happen.

"Longyuan Pavilion is my lord's residence, not yours. Since you can come to the balcony, why can't I come?" He smiled strangely, his voice was like the chirping of a night crow, and the impression he gave was obviously even stronger. It should be a vicious old man plotting plots and tricks, but under the shriveled robes is an abnormally strong body, and it is also a body with super high agility that does not match the strong body.Li took a step forward and just stepped on Xiao Xiao's critical line.If it goes any further, Xiao will not tolerate it, but the just right distance chosen by the other party makes him unable to get angry even if he wants to.

"As you please." With a snort, Xiao turned his head and continued to look at the setting sun in the distance.

The blood-thick color gradually infiltrated the world, and the clouds at dusk were like a huge melting pot, with red iron-like light shining through the holes, making people suspect that it would drip down and destroy the city. Burned in the flowing red gold.The indifferent sunset glow dissipated with the erratic wind, and the soft red smoke was hazy and clear, covering the sky above the city.He waved his hand suddenly, and the large cloud of smoke spread out as if hit by a heavy hammer, becoming thinner.

"It's so beautiful, this world." He muttered to himself with an indescribably lazy expression.

"But this is not our world after all." The gentle and jade-like voice is as clear as a silver bell blown by the wind, but it is also more solid than that, revealing a trustworthy firmness, and the pace is not fast or slow, as if walking Walking forward to the beat of the string song, elegant and comfortable.Dressed in white snow, with bright eyebrows, he looks like a nobleman who has walked down from an ancient mythical scroll. The light is so dazzling that one cannot look directly at it, just like looking at the sun with the naked eye, only to be blinded by the brilliant light, and feel ashamed.

No matter who it is, the evaluation of the person in front of him can only be four words.

Otherworldly.

Holding a folding fan in the palm of suet-like jade, warm red sunlight flows on the white clothes, the hair is tied behind the head by a narrow gilt ring, and tied into a long ponytail, the pair of clear and transparent eyes What is contained in the eyes of Rushui is not the indifference of the messenger of God, but a faint smell of fireworks, like the smoke rising slowly at the end of the horizon, like the hazy smell of alcohol in a teahouse.It was these smells of fireworks that made him show a completely different anger from the other two.

"It's really not up to you to say this, Yang." Glancing at his attire, Xiao's expression was rather helpless.

"You are the best among us at dealing with those ordinary people."

Li, who was leaning on the load-bearing beam, didn't speak, but he obviously agreed with Xiao's statement from his expression.

"The heart is like a bodhi tree, and the body is like a mirror stand. There is nothing in the first place, so where does the dust come from?" Yang slowly recited a verse from China, still in the leisurely tone of a nobleman.

"I'm just curious about the current world, and I'm not really integrated into this world. Don't forget what our real identity is."

"The living returned from the land of the dead by the mighty power of our lord, the ghosts who should have died but stayed in the remnants." After shaking the sleeves of his robe, Li's voice was no longer as cold and hard as metal friction, but turned for a more normal tone.

"This second life has long been decided to be dedicated to my lord. For the sake of my lord's order, I will not hesitate to sink into the dark eternal night again." With his right hand beating his chest, Xiao's tone suddenly became firm and forceful. It's like remembering the promise I made.

"I only wish to be my Lord's spear, my Lord's shield, to remove all obstacles for my Lord, and to fulfill my Lord's long-cherished wish." With a snap, the folding fan tapped on the palm of his hand, and a little silver light oozes from Yang's dark eyes , as if snowflakes in winter fell from the endless night sky, pieces drifting away, turning into icy liquid and penetrating into the heart.

"We are undead living in this world. We have nothing to ask for but to fight for our lord's wish, and we will die for nothing!" The three said in unison, and then suddenly knelt down on one knee without warning.

"My Lord." Facing the existence that was no different from the Creator to them, they bowed their heads humbly from the bottom of their hearts, and they stared at the spotless floor without moving their eyes.

"Get up." In the empty and deserted hall, suddenly there was an ethereal voice like the wind. It seemed to be floating from a very high, very high clear sky. It was exceptionally clear but blurry, like a drop of dew splashing into a lake. In the middle, a series of ripples appeared that quickly disappeared without a trace.Say it doesn't exist, but it does exist, say it exists, but it doesn't leave a trace, only empty delusions are left to attract people's daydreams, but you can still find false clues from the delusions.

"The final plan is about to start, and we have made long preparations for it before that." Yuan Lufeng wore a white robe that was completely different from the past, and his expression was as solemn as a wax figure painted with gold powder.Xiao suddenly felt that the reason why Yuan Lufeng would build this towering building, and why Yuan Lufeng would sit in this dark and gloomy Longyuan Pavilion for decades, was because he was originally a clay sculpture placed on a lotus platform A puppet, except that he is a smiling Maitreya Buddha, and they are just a group of heavenly dragons and eight tribes.

At its root, it is just a pawn in the hands of a higher-level being, so grand and yet so small.

"The living must wither, the strong must be destroyed, and everything cannot escape the cycle of fate. This is the only gift I want to leave in this world."

Yang, Li and Xiao didn't say anything, they knew that Yuan Lufeng must have something to say.

The candlelight was slightly rippling, and the surrounding thousand-layer gauze curtains were dyed with a faint water-like halo, which looked gorgeous and mysterious.

"I called you here this time because there are some steps and precautions that you need to understand. After all, this is our last curtain call ceremony, and it is not in line with our current status if it is not grand and unusual. Moreover, since we want to act, we must act It is a grand and unparalleled drama that will make the whole country dance in our hands, and make the world remember our existence and that we have come to this world after thousands of years." Yuan Lufeng continued.

"Please show me, my lord." As the disciple who had followed him the longest among the three present, Yang said softly.

"First, I need you, Xiao, as an outpost." Raising his right hand, Yuan Lufeng pointed to Xiao who was standing on the closest balcony.

"Yes, my lord." Knowing that the only thing waiting for him was death, he still knelt down on one knee without hesitation and nodded in response.Because this is his destiny, an order he must execute, and the reason why he got a second life.The feeling of waiting is uncomfortable, he is often awakened by his own imagination in his dreams, not to mention that he has been waiting for this time for more than a hundred years, and the days of being awakened during this period are too numerous to count.He once imagined the thoughts in his heart when he received the order, but he was finally freed from the pressure until the moment he actually received the order. At this moment, he had no thoughts in his heart, only the empty and lonely state of mind like a lotus pond , Gujing no waves.

"I allow you to use all the force of the 'Sabi' Ministry and the Third Guard Office at any time, any place, anytime, any place to take all hostile activities against the forces to which the target belongs, regardless of the cost, just to anger the target, after all attacks are completed , you play in person, this is your curtain call."

"Understood, my lord." Xiao nodded, stretched out his black robe, and his figure faded away like pen and ink wiped off by orpiment on rice paper, and disappeared without a trace in an instant.After a short while, he came to the street hundreds of feet away.

He couldn't wait to meet his destiny. As the first actor in the last and most gorgeous performance, he knew that what he had to do was to stir up the atmosphere of the scene, even directly to the highest point.

Assassination, this is his favorite method of killing. In the past, he was not able to fully enjoy himself because of the constraints of the plan, but this time, he got Yuan Lufeng's personal promise to use all his means.

Facing the bright orange lights, he smiled and walked towards the unknowable darkness. Only there is his real destination, just like the place where he will sleep forever.

After Xiao's figure disappeared in the hall, Yuan Lufeng pointed his finger at another person - Li.

"Secondly, Li, your task is to stir up all the separatist forces, let them move out one by one, come here..." Pointing down, his face was still indifferent, even though he sent out consecutive Despite the ruthless instructions, his face did not tremble in the slightest.But only this is the Yuan Lufeng they are familiar with, the big pope who is always indifferent to others, he doesn't care about life and death, and he doesn't care about other things, even if he is a disciple who has followed him for many years and was pulled back from the side of death by himself, It's just his pawn.

The chess pieces know their status, but they have no choice but to be willing to be pawns. This is the life they got for the second time. Before receiving the final order, they might as well enjoy this moment of nothingness. Yuan Lufeng obtained it in his hands, so it is only natural to repay him.

He bowed his head respectfully, waiting for the order to call off the curtain.

"Burn us and this city!" With sonorous and forceful words, Yuan Lufeng's instructions have been clearly delivered.After receiving the task, Li Zhan straightened his body and disappeared into a sudden burst of fireworks, leaving not even a trace of scorched black on the spot.

At the same time, the Huangya'Yang' and the Yawei's first guard almost came out in full force. Continuous black banners covered the sky and the sun, winding out in the starless night. The heavy carbine, driving the strong horse below him, turned into a long dragon wearing black scales and went straight to the outside of the city. The torches that stretched to the sky can be seen in a radius of ten miles.

The huge war machine began to run under the command of the master, and the gears that destroyed everything buzzed and roared breathtakingly. The First Guard of the Dental Guard, which was in charge of war and killing, attacked with all its strength. The only foreseeable thing for Japan, which has calmed down, is that under their agitation, it will turn into a purgatory-like Shura field again.They are the messengers of the God of Destruction, only to spread destruction and finality to all directions equally.

"Finally, Yang, you should lead 'Yin' and the second guard of Yawei to stay in this city. At least until the 'steps' of the two of them are completed, I don't want this city to have any problems." Waving his hand, Yuan Lufeng signaled Yang to step down, his face was a little tired.

"Yes, my lord." Looking at Yuan Lufeng who was obviously tired, Yang slowly stood up from the ground, turned and left.

With a click, just as he left, the door of Longyuan Pavilion closed automatically, sealing everything in the hall again in darkness that even he could not see.

Going down the stairs, Yang stood at the gate of Tianxu. The sharp-eyed disciples of Huangya Cult saw him coming and saluted quickly, but he stopped him.

The surroundings were pitch black, and the night was already deep. His white clothes were eroded by the boundless ink, like an iceberg floating in the dark water, swaying unsteadily.

Walking out the door, raising his head, he looked deeply at the starless sky.
