Chapter 71: A Commission from Hades
Yang Ni was shocked.
First of all, he not only could not tell when the owner of this sound came to him, but he could not determine the specific location of the sound until now, but he felt that the sound was a little familiar, as if he had heard it somewhere a long time ago.
But soon, a tall figure loomed out slowly emerged from the ground, but when I thought about it carefully, it seemed as if he had been standing there all the time.
The figure is similar to Yang Ni's height, but the body is more burly. She is wearing a yellow robe. I don't know if the robe is the true color, or because she has been stained with dust after walking too many places.
Yang Ni's warning has quietly raised to the highest point. As long as the robe guest makes a little abnormal move, he can react as soon as possible and then take action first.
As for whether you can beat it or not, you have to wait until you beat it.
The robe guest did not make any moves, but the distance was getting closer. Of course, it was also possible that he was gradually getting bigger. In this void, it was too difficult to make accurate judgments about measurements.
But with such a reference, Yang Ni felt more real, and unconsciously, a sense of intimacy arose.
It's like this [31 Novel Network ] figure is the only real thing in this entire space.
As he continued to get closer, Yang Ni finally saw his face clearly.
It is actually not accurate to say "see clearly". The face shrouded under the robe is not real. It seems to have seen clearly, but after thinking about it carefully, there is no impression at all. Only two eyes with glittering eyes moved with their bodies and left a phantom trail on both sides of the corners of their eyes, just like meteors in the darkness.
Somehow, Yang Ni felt that this "person" had no malicious intentions towards him.
The robe guest stopped 3 meters away in front of him.
"Who are you? Where is this?" Yang Ni asked in a deep voice.
Although he couldn't see his expression, Yang Ni knew that he smiled.
"Hehe, it's really an uninformed question. Don't you want to know how to get out from here?" The figure was covered with a layer of dim light, which made people feel a little dazed for a moment.
Yang Ni frowned: "Where are you talking about here? Is it this flying chess game or a place to die?"
"Is there any difference between the two?" replied the robe guest.
Yang Ni was speechless for a moment, and he was a little confused about the intention of the person.
I heard the man continue to say: "My real name has not been used for a long time. I am not even sure whether it is my real name. I only know that in this dying place, many people call me the 'King of Hell'."
"Yama!"
Yang Ni was shocked. Could it be that he was the maker of all the rules on Huangquan Street, the only man who got a whole deck of playing cards and had faced the Lord of Huangquan directly?
"You haven't left your dying place?" Yang Ni asked the most questions that all dying people are most concerned about.
The King of Hell waved his hand and said in a plain tone: "Sometimes, staying is to leave better, not to mention that I have not met the conditions to leave yet."
Yang Ni frowned and repeated what he said: "Stay... to leave better? Can't you leave after collecting all the playing cards?"
The King of Hell still had a plain expression, and he had an open-minded attitude who had experienced too many hardships but looked down on life and death. But somehow, looking at his meteor-like eyes, he unconsciously thought of his grandfather.
In my memory, my grandfather also had such eyes.
The King of Hell didn't seem to want to waste too much time, so he waved his hand, as if driving away something, and continued: "This is the inside of the chessboard stone. Unfortunately, I can only meet you in this form, and it only takes less than 2 minutes."
"You want to see me?" Yang Ni had a big question in his heart.
This time, the King of Hell did not answer him directly, but said to himself: "Do you want to waste all your time on asking questions, or listen quietly to me and finish your words?"
Yang Ni gave his own answer with his actions.
"Very good," the King of Hell nodded with satisfaction and continued, "There are two reasons why I want to meet you. First, I want you to help me find the last clue to leave here. Second, I have met your father."
"What!" Yang Ni was shocked and could no longer hold back. He stepped forward and sternly said: "Are you talking about my father?"
"Yes, he used to be... my best friend." The King of Hell did not refuse this time and answered his question.
Yang Ni grew up with his grandfather since childhood and has never met his parents, which is why he has such a deep relationship with his grandfather.
When he was young, he asked his grandfather where his parents had gone. However, whenever he asked this, his grandfather was silent. When Xiao Yang Ni was so anxious, he said to him: "Your parents have gone to a very far place."
After growing up a little, Yang Ni vaguely realized that his parents might have died unexpectedly when he was very young, otherwise it would not explain why they were not by his side.
But now when the King of Hell said this, there seems to be something else.
Could it be...
Yang Ni asked his guess directly: "Has my father been to this dying place? Where is he now?"
The face of the King of Hell finally showed a dull expression. He smiled slightly: "What do you mean to have come? He has never left at all."
"So, he is still alive?" Yang Ni was overjoyed.
"Is there a big difference here when you are alive or dead?" The King of Hell said another inexplicable sentence.
Before Yang Ni could get in touch, the King of Hell continued, "Okay, there's not much time left. I'll give you a chance now, a chance to win this game, and a chance to find your father."
After saying that, he stretched out a finger and pointed upwards.
Yang Ni immediately understood, I'm afraid this was the event inspired by 105 grids.
"You mean, can you let the chess piece move forward one more square?"
"Yes," replied the King of Hell, "even if I have rewarded you with advance."
Yang Ni pondered for a moment, and did not agree to him immediately, but asked, "What do you need me to do?"
The King of Hell said calmly: "You don't have to do anything deliberately, just keep playing this game. I only have one promise from you."
"What promise?" Yang Ni became more cautious. It was related to the outcome of the game, whether he could leave the dying place, and the only clue that his father was concerned about. He couldn't help but treat it with carelessness.
