The Throne Under the Starry Sky Chapter 225: When the ghost reappears (medium)

"...what did you say."

"The leader of the assassins, the king of the assassins."

"...Can you say it again."

"It's not safe here, brother Jona, let's leave quickly."

Gu Tie stared at the opposite man blankly. Although his temperament had undergone earth-shaking changes, it was clear that Long Ji picked it up from Tantai's house and was sent by the Long Family Shadow Sect to perform an undercover mission. , The little dragon with mediocre strength but with a big heart of determination and unyielding, "Are you having a fever? By the way, your hand has a wound, is it corroded." The Chinese couldn't help but reach out and grab the other's hand,

"Farewell." Long Shenlin yelled, his arms turned over and choked and pulled out his weapon. Gu Tie found something wrong, turned his claws into his palms, bowed forward, his right hand lifted his opponent's elbow upwards, and his left palm Sliding his arms into his arms "stubbornly", and deeply imprinted his body's momentum into the opponent's heart, attacking and defending together, Bajiquan "holding the gun",

"Boom." With a muffled sound, Long Shenlin was hit a dozen paces away by abrupt volley. While the opponent was flying, the short sword in Xiaolong's hand was swung three times at an extremely swift speed, leaving three smoking sword marks on the ground. If it hadn't been for the impact of the body and losing the head, I am afraid that the Chinese had already been cut by this time. The four pieces are neat and tidy, and the glaze-like ground condensed by high pressure and high temperature can be easily separated with sword energy. This power is really frightening.

There was a loud noise, Xiaolong stood up from the rubble and patted the dirt on his body: "I still can't control this power, please stop doing dangerous things..." He was talking, and he suddenly opened his mouth. He spit out a mouthful of blood and smiled bitterly: "The body is still the original body. It seems that it takes a lot of time to get used to..."

"Explain." Gu Tie raised the sword of the Black Dragon King to the tip of Long Shenlin's nose, "Otherwise I can't believe that you are the original little dragon."

Xiaolong looked back embarrassedly, as if there was something that made him care about, "Well, I see, when I entered the Long Family Mansion with Senior Long Chang, the giant monster had not yet been born. With help, we crossed the southern city wall and came to the branch mansion. We wanted to find the person in charge of the Long’s Xingtang and asked about Miss Long Ji’s whereabouts. Later, the giant monster wiped out all the fighting power of the Long Family, and we finally saw a master of Xing Hall and got the necessary information."

Xiaolong’s honorifics for Asai and Longji have changed. This made Gu Tie feel faintly unhappy. The Chinese nodded and resisted not interrupting each other. Long Shenlin went on to say: "At this time, the Dragon Spine is already open. , The family was driven out. We knew that at the last moment, Senior Long Chang called me aside and said that he was going to fight with all his strength. He had serious wounds on his body, and his true power was blocked by the seal of the Twelve Councillors. , Once he uses his full strength, this body used to walk the world will definitely collapse, and once the'armor body' dies, it means that he has lost the only connection between the alien world and the world, and will never be able to return to this world. At that time, the wound on my hand began to deteriorate, and my mind was sometimes sober and sometimes blurred. I couldn’t remember what else he said. When I understood it, there was this steam pocket watch in my hand, and Senior Long Chang left such a period. Then turn around and leave."

"He said: "From now on, you will be the new king of assassins. These things will be kept for me. When I leave, my pocket watch will choose you as its master, and assassins all over the world will hear It’s calling to recognize your status. This title is nihilistic. It can neither give you power nor make you rich. You can choose whether to become an assassin, but remember that the exchange of money for life is to maintain this world. The important behavior of running the basic rules, in other words, the assassin is the maintainer of the world order, slowly realize the meaning of it, and finally, say sorry to brother Jona for me, let him not forget my request,' "Xiaolong walked over slowly, wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, and repeated it calmly, "Brother Jona, I'm sorry..., this is Senior Long Chang's request."

"He...didn't die, but he will never come back." Gu Tie murmured,

Long Shenlin nodded and said: "The curse of the wound and the backlash of forcibly breaking the seal, no human being can survive in that situation, but the blood of Senior Long Chang is the'armor' that hides his true body in another world. Therefore, he just sacrificed the body of Asai. The true self can still live well in the alien world. Fighting with the giant monster is the last time he has come to this world. The thread that tied him to reality has been broken. It's..."

Gu Tie buzzed in his mind, and he didn't know how to react for a while, "...then what about that pocket watch, what does it have to do with the identity of the King of Assassins."

"I can't elaborate on this point." Xiaolong replied, "You can understand that the'King of Assassins' actually refers to the person selected by the pocket watch. This is called'Mary Bella's Bronze Hour Hand' The watch is an artifact that can give people power. It is not accurate to say that it is power. It starts a countdown after selecting the owner. Once the hour hand returns to the origin, the owner’s life will end; but as an equivalent exchange Conditions, the Assassin King can use the power that should have been gained in the long life in advance. For example, if the life of fifty years is condensed into five years, the owner will naturally gain five times the power. No one knows how long the countdown will be. Time, unless it’s about to end, even if you don’t come forward, Senior Long Chang’s lifespan will be scarce. This is why he often looks at his watch, and it’s the reason why he asks you last."

"Is that so?...I still have a lot of things that I haven't figured out..." Gu Tie raised his finger to signal the other party to pause, and wanted to think quietly, but the new generation of Assassin Kings said: "There is no time. , The remaining Long family members are retreating southward. They want to cross Yunmengze and seek assistance from the Jiedu envoy in Pingnan. If it is not safe, they will pass Yunmengze and seek refuge in Southern Shangguo."

"What does this have to do with me." Gu Tie raised his head and said,

"It doesn't matter." Long Shenlin said, "But they have something to do with you." He waved his hand, and two figures slowly walked out behind him. A strong and valiant man carried a thin, pale and unconscious on his shoulders. Both of them were scarred and bloodied. The man in black armor was covered with blood on his face, and he lost one eye and looked hideous, while the thin man didn’t have a complete shirt under his body, and his cut wounds spread all over his body. , It looks like the blood is almost drained,

"Long Shiyue, see." Even though it is difficult to even stand, this man bowed and saluted with rigor, his voice hoarse and said, "This is Long Shiyu, my brother." Pointing to the shoulder with his lower jaw. He bowed again, "...After waking up, I saw you fighting heroically, and I am grateful for the kindness you made for the Long Family."

Gu Tie was taken aback. These two people are important figures in Elliott’s story and are also representatives of the young generation of the Long Family. Unexpectedly, they both escaped from the hands of the giant monsters and nodded in return. The Chinese turned his head and asked, "What do they have to do with me."

Long Shenlin said: "Where are you going next."

Gu Tie thought for a moment, "There is no room for individual power in this war. My original intention when I came to Liang Sui Kingdom was to find Long Ji, tell me about her, and I will continue to look for her. "

"That's it." Long Shenlin said, "Miss Long Ji's news is on both of them. Let them speak for themselves. I must go."

"What." Gu Tie said strangely, "What is the news on them, where are you going."

Xiaolong said indifferently: "Senior Long Chang is someone I admire, but he is not a qualified king of assassins. He has great power, but he has been evading fate, and he refuses to face the path he should take. It’s different. When I was recognized by the "Mary Bella’s Bronze Hour Hand", a brand new door opened before my eyes. I am no longer a humble child of the Long family, but the leader of assassins all over the world. I I will have the ability to change the world...I will not escape, thank you for your care along the way, Brother Jona, I will learn to use this powerful power to become the true king of assassins."

The Chinese froze for a moment, and couldn't help but angrily said: "Then what you said before, what about your'grand grandmother in charge of punishment'? Do you want to give up halfway like this? You swear to find her even if you travel around the world, you Forgot."

Long Shenlin lowered his eyes and stared quietly at the colorful smooth ground: "I have been born again, brother Jona, when I think about it, the old me is too stupid. I will take these two children of the Long family. When I lead it to you, my responsibility for this surname is over. From then on, my name will be changed to'Bernino Deep Forest', completely separating the boundaries from the past, then..."

Before the words fell, the ground suddenly burst, and the figure of the new king of assassins disappeared in the smoke, "You bastard, coward, bastard." Gu Tie was stunned, and shouted in all directions, "If you have a little strength, just drag." Get up, right, the most wolf-hearted guy will not do such things, don’t forget, you still have the blood of the Long family in your body, and you are a branch of the family surnamed Long. Although Asai doesn’t care about it, In fact, it hasn’t changed until you die, and you,...get away, get away."

The voice echoed in the ruins, and it took a long time to finally calm down. Gu Tie hushed his breath and spit out, "If there is power, there is corruption, and when a man has power, he will become bad. This is the truth in any world. It’s the truth...Long Shiyue brother, let’s talk about it, what do you want me to do."

"Protect us to the north, cross the border, and reach the end of the Khanate." Long Shiyue said hoarsely, "Long Ji is there too."
