The most shameless alchemist in history - Chapter 852
Chapter 852 Don’t Pretend To Be Me
The sudden disappearance of Messiah disturbed everyone, including Durley and Bill.
Because Messiah is the core figure of this guard team, except for Du Lei, everyone else’s task is to protect Messiah and escort her back to River Bay safely, and Du Lei and Messiah are also friends for many years. Now, the reason why he appeared here was to escort the Messiah away.
Now I have searched all places inside and outside, but have not found the whereabouts of Messiah.
Suddenly, the stairs found at the secret entrance behind the stairs became the only possible place for the whereabouts of the Messiah.
Du Lei was the first person to go down the stairs to find the Messiah.
He was holding a torch in his hand, and although he was surprised by the existence of a part of the shadow tower underground, he was not too surprised.
Because he has seen similar buildings before, this is a typical mirror tower.
The so-called mirror tower means that during the construction process, the ground part is exactly the same as the underground part.
However, mirror towers are usually built on land, and it is quite rare to build on the sea like shadow towers.
Because the underground department is in the sea.
However, Du Lei still had a more intuitive understanding of the structure of the shadow tower.
Although he is now in the underground part of the Shadow Tower, the periphery of this part is surrounded by rock formations.
This is like putting a carrot in water, and the mirror tower is radish flesh, with a layer of radish skin wrapped around it.
“Here is… Messiah, are you here? Can you hear me? Messiah?” Du Lei held up the torch as he shouted the name of Messiah, and it was dark all around. Even if he held the torch, he could only see a small area nearby.
It is very difficult to find someone in this situation. He has no idea what is in front of him, and there is only a deep darkness.
“No one? Bill, don’t rush down, Bill…what’s the matter, why Bill is not there anymore?” Du Lei became more and more suspicious of the place in front of him. He originally wanted to warn Bill, but When he turned around, he found darkness behind him.
This made him even more puzzled. Could it be that Bill closed the entrance directly and didn’t follow it down?
Although he did want Bill to do this, he always felt something was wrong.
“Why… so cold…” Du Lei soon noticed a strong wind blowing over.
This gave him a feeling of being in the cold wind.
He raised his arms subconsciously to block the wind that was swept by, which temporarily blocked his vision, making it impossible to see anything.
But soon he heard the whistling wind in his ears, and at the same time he felt that his feet were soft.
This feeling is not unfamiliar to him, but isn’t it just the unique feeling of stepping on the snow.
He has grown up on Xueling since he was a child, and this feeling is perfect for him.
But he clearly remembered that he was not in the underground part of the Tower of Shadows? This is in the sea area of Numa no country.
How can there be snow? This season is wrong, or is it hallucinations?
“Did I have hallucinations? This is…” Du Lei opened his eyes quickly, and he looked around in surprise.
The original black piece disappeared, and replaced by a white piece, this is a world of ice and snow wrapped in silver.
There is soft snow under his feet, and snow falling down above his head.
Surrounded by snowy ridges, he was so familiar with this scene that he couldn’t be more familiar.
Isn’t this the mountain near the hot spring village where he grew up?
“Sleepy, sleepy, really sleepy, this kind of weather is really suitable for a good night’s sleep at home, so I miss the warm firewood, and it’s cold, hungry and sleepy outside… But there is no food left at home, so I have to go out and hunt. Order food, otherwise you will be starved to death this winter.”
There was a voice at this moment, and Du Lei looked over in a daze. He soon saw a little boy who was about ten years old coming over, holding a machete in his hand, walking up the road and leaving it on the ground. Make shallow footprints.
“Hey, there is someone here? Hey, who are you? You.” The little boy quickly noticed the existence of Du Lei, and he asked vigilantly.
“I’m… Du Lei, who are you?” Du Lei hesitated for a moment before he told the little boy his name.
He didn’t know what was going on, he felt kind when he saw the little boy.
“What? Your name is Du Lei, then who am I? Just kidding, you have to be a little reliable to pretend to be your uncle. You still pretend to be me like this?” The little boy sneered, and his words made Du Lei. Completely stunned.
“What did you say? Pretending to be you?” Du Lei was puzzled for a while.
“Yes, I know my Uncle Du Lei is very famous nearby, but you can’t pretend to be me like this, it’s wrong!” the little boy said old-fashioned.
“Pretending to be you or something… I didn’t pretend to be you, wait, you mean, your name is Du Lei?” After a brief period of consternation, Du Lei frowned and thought of something Possibility, asked in surprise.
“Of course, I am Du Lei, Du Lei from Hot Spring Village!” the little boy said very proudly.
“Du Lei of Hot Spring Village…Wait, you mean, this is Hot Spring Village?” Du Lei was still a little confused.
But gradually, he seemed to have some clues, and he immediately asked the little boy.
“That’s right, we are here in the hot spring village. This is a tourist village famous for hot springs. The hot springs in the village are super good. Soaking in the hot springs can relieve fatigue, beauty skin care, and even anti-aging. This is not too much. Great, how about it, isn’t it very exciting? So, if you go to the top bathing beach, you will tell me my name and say that I introduced it. The boss will definitely give you a discount.” The little boy crawled and patted his chest.
“Mountain Bath… Isn’t the owner of the Mountain Bath named Hart?” Du Lei quickly remembered something and asked.
“Hey, you know Hart, what? It turns out to be a regular customer. It’s really boring.” The little boy waved his hand, and suddenly lost his interest. Where is the amusement before?
“What’s the date today?” Du Lei continued to ask, he looked a little nervous and a little excited.
“I think you are crazy, why should I tell you, really, okay, I have to continue working, don’t hang around in front of me when you are fine, oh yes, you go over there, around here It’s my place. If you want to go hunting, go somewhere else, understand?”
The little boy looked suspiciously at the young man in front of him, how he looked at this guy and felt suspicious.
However, there are quite a lot of strange mercenaries in the village recently, so he doesn’t take it seriously.
“I… have you hallucinated? How can I see what happened when I was a child, and so real…” Du Lei is not stupid, he soon realized that the little boy was him back then!
Now he is watching himself doing everything he used to do when he was a child, which shocked him, and it was incredible!
“This day, what day is this, think about it…” Du Lei thought quickly.
He tried hard to recall things related to this day, and his mind was constantly flashing with various images.
These sporadic fragments are about memories of the past, but there is still a lack of a line that can connect all the clues together!
“It’s really unlucky today. It’s okay to encounter a neurosis early in the morning, but I didn’t expect that a prey would not be able to touch it, oh oh oh, am I hungry? No, just hold on. You must not give up easily.”
Not far away, the little boy was shivering with the cold, and his lips were black and blue from the cold.
If this is other people of the same age, I am afraid that they are all asleep by the warm stove at this time.
But he can’t. He has no family to rely on, so he can only survive on his own.
“Hey, what’s this here?” When the little boy felt very depressed, he suddenly noticed something.
Because not far ahead is a trap he dug before, which is used to trap prey.
After all, his age is too young, although he can use tools, but his strength is not enough.
If he encounters a slightly larger prey, he will not be able to defeat it at all.
In order to solve such a problem, he can only rely on traps.
For this reason, he dug many traps nearby, and was lucky enough to pick up some small prey.
If this encounters a large one, such as a wild boar, and is trapped in a trap, and then find a way to capture it, it will be enough for him to eat for many days.
“Have you caught the prey? I thought I would go back empty-handed today, but now it seems that I was still lucky today.” The little boy who was still frustrated just now walked over to plan the trap. After all, it has been snowing. , The traps are covered.
However, judging from the nearby traces, it is safe to say that prey fell into the trap.
The little boy who realized this was pawing the snow in excitement, and imagined what prey he had hunted.
“This day, I remember it was…” Du Lei, who was not far away, watched this scene all the time, and he thought carefully in his mind.
As time progressed, more and more fragments appeared in his mind, just a little, just a little, he was able to remember all of them!
“This day… I went out to look for prey… I didn’t find it… but found that there were loose traces in the trap… So I planed out the snow, and what was under the snow was…” Du Lei carefully recalled , He has remembered more and more details.
He continued thinking along this line of thought, and soon gained something, and he was about to remember when he saw it.
“By the way, he was the one I dug out in the snow!” Du Lei exclaimed, because he finally remembered which day it was!
At this time, not far from him, the little boy was still pawing the snow with an unknown mood.
“If it’s a wild boar, then I can safely pass this winter, and wild boar skin can also be used to sew a piece of clothing, if it is a deer? I can barely make do, anyway, I am not picky. Yes, then…” the little boy was planing excitedly.
He soon discovered something, just when he was extremely excited.
He suddenly realized something.
“Hey, what is this…what?” He digs for a while, and what he digs out is neither a wild boar nor a deer.
But… a hand?
“I didn’t make a mistake, there is indeed a trap I dug around here, what’s the matter?” The little boy felt confused.
He suspected that he had dug wrong.
“I must have dug the wrong thing. This is obviously a dead person, but… let’s figure it out first, maybe some valuable things can be pulled off from my body?”
If it were other little boys, they would have run away in fear when they encountered this scene.
But the little boy is very calm, because to him, this scene is really nothing.
He had done similar things many times a long time ago.
Before that, he had dug out dead people in the snow.
Because there are too many dead people nearby, he doesn’t know what the mercenaries and adventurers are, why they always like to come to the hot spring village… To be precise, their target is Beishan.
Come here, but many people encountered a blizzard in the middle, which made the little boy very strange.
He really doesn’t understand why these people are doing this?
At the beginning, he was still very scared when he dug up the dead, and there was still some awe.
But gradually, this feeling of fear disappeared. The reason was that he discovered that encountering a dead person is not a bad thing.
Because these dead people are wearing weapons, silver coins, and other messy things.
After they die, these things become unowned.
In the eyes of the little boy, instead of letting these things sleep in the ice and snow, it is better to dig them out.
This will also make them worthwhile!
Including this time, he also thinks like this.
So although it was not a wild boar or a deer, he was a little disappointed.
But he still chose to continue digging to see what he could gain this time!
“Hey, I’m really exhausted. This man… looks quite young, and his body is not badly decomposed, just like he just fell asleep. Is it because he was killed recently? But recently in the village, I have never seen a guy with this face either.”
The little boy tilted his head and looked at the man in front of him, feeling a little confused.
“Forget it, no matter how much it is, let’s first see if there is anything valuable on him.” The little boy can be regarded as not surprising, he immediately reached out and fumbled, but at this moment, his hand Suddenly was dragged.
“Huh?” The little boy was stunned. He saw that it was a hand that was pulling him.
A hand that does not belong to him.
“This feeling is…no? You scammed the corpse?”
