Chapter 158 The King in Yellow
Chapter 158 The King in Yellow
The four of them ran up the hill, just in time to see Zhuobi's avatar, which turned into three figures, and surrounded Asatel's rotten meat. A barrier of three mirrors was opened in front of them, trapping the rotten meat that was running around. .
"Space cage! Stinky monster!" Zhuobi finally came out of the shadow dream, and seeing Asatel was furious from the bottom of his heart, and his attack was his ultimate move.
The three mirrors quickly pressed over, and in a short while, the ball of rotten meat was crushed alive to the size of a fist.
The three Zhuobi quickly merged into one again, and with a clap of his hands, he sealed the ball of rotten flesh into a palm-sized mirror.
Kaka raised his eyebrows, and said to Bai Lin, "Our team... is very strong..."
"Everyone, don't move!" Bai Lin suddenly shuddered and shouted loudly.
Youqian and Qiqi, who were walking towards the ancient books in the grass not far away, were taken aback, but they looked dazed as if they had woken up from sleep.
"Stay away from that book! Read the mission introduction!" Bai Lin shouted.
Everyone glanced at the tasks on the illustrated book system:
[5. Assault on the Shadow: Destroy the assembly of the Hastur Order, get "The King in Yellow" (Note: This book will corrupt human sanity), and get 3000 contribution points. (in progress)]
The task has not been completed, but everyone has seen the task notes, this ancient book has the ability to corrupt human sanity.
"Yuqian, Qiqi, the two of you have the lowest resistance to spiritual magic, go a little farther away, and I will deal with this book!" Bai Lin shouted.
Youqian and Qiqi glanced at each other, they felt dizzy, as if something was calling them from the ancient book, as long as they passed by, all regrets would be made up for, Yuxi heard the voice of her parents getting back together ... Kiki heard the sound of her parents being resurrected and their family returning to live in the small town...
That was the voice they all wanted to hear in their dreams, but these voices were interrupted by Bai Lin's shout.
Bai Lin rushed over, hugged the two of them, and with a flash, he had sent them to Hagrid's side by teleportation.
Hagrid was covered in mud, grass blades were still stained on his face, and his complexion was not very good, but he nodded firmly to Bai Lin, and grabbed the back collars of the two cute girls one by one.
"Captain, that ancient book is very evil... I seem to have heard the voice of my family!" Zhuobi said, while holding the mirror that trapped Asatel, he kept backing away.
Bai Lin waved his hand to signal everyone not to approach, put away the Thunderbird that had been hovering in the air, and walked towards the ancient book alone.
"Lord in yellow? I want to meet you!" Bai Lin said to himself.
He didn't have the confidence to do so. Since the task of the illustrated book system requires him to "obtain "The King in Yellow", that is to say, the illustrated book system has assessed that he should have this ability.
In the dungeon in Cairo, he felt that Elia seemed to have been brainwashed by the Yellow Robe Bishop with the ability of the "Yellow Seal" for a short period of time, but this brainwashing process seemed to make Elia see the legendary "Yellow Seal". Hastur, the King of Clothes, is the old ruler who is as famous as Cthulhu in the Cthulhu mythology.
He walked slowly towards the ancient book and said to his teammates: "If I behave wrongly, attack me with ice arrows!"
The ancient book was lying quietly in the grass, and when he noticed Bai Lin's actions, the lump of flesh in the mirror in Zhuobi's hand desperately hit the mirror, but this mirror was just an appearance, in fact, the mirror surface was a magic barrier of space, how could it be possible to rely on it? Can it break through on impact?
The more Bai Lin walked in, the more he felt as if his head had entered a tropical jungle. It was hot, humid, and drowsy. He pulled himself together, and gradually he seemed to hear a voice, like Someone whispered in his ear:
come closer... come closer...
The door of truth has been opened...
Hattas is waiting in the deep space star sea...
Accept the yellow seal...
Homage to your master...
Shepherd will become the master of the galaxy...
Just like what happened to Elijah in the Cairo dungeon, Bai Lin walked up to the ancient book and saw the cover of the ancient book split by a machete. There seemed to be a mark on it that suddenly came into his mind.
Just as Bai Lin's fingers touched the book cover, he suddenly felt like he was sitting on a rocket. Those whispers seemed to have infinite magic power, and they flew up to the sky with his soul.
He felt that he was no longer the college student of Xia State named Bai Lin, no longer the time traveler who strayed into the world of wizards, no longer "Magic Beast Expert and Summoner" Kailin White, no longer the messenger of the sun god, the night emissary. The apprentice of the mentor, the ranger of the chaotic good alignment... not even a human anymore.
He became a more advanced existence, detached from all creatures on the earth, he felt that his soul was sublimated, he almost thought he had become a god, and everything on the earth became extremely small.
Then he flew into the sea of stars in the universe, countless stars seemed to be within reach, and he could reach any place he wanted to go with his will.
Finally, he came to a mysterious planet, a "sacred place" among billions of planets.
In the ruins of the ancient city of Carcosa, the calm holy lake rippled, and Hastur, the "great king in yellow", leaned out of the lake with his huge figure.
Hastur's figure is not real, but Bai Lin feels unpeekable, untouchable, and indescribable. He seems to have a huge octopus-shaped upper body, but he also has bat wings like a dragon. He has countless eyes. There are countless faces...
But unlike what Elia saw, a human-like "clone" appeared in front of Hastur before Bai Lin's eyes.
The clone was covered with a yellow cloak, and there were thousands of tentacles supporting him in the water under the cloak.
Unlike Elia who felt the inspiration from Hastur when he saw his figure at the beginning: as long as he accepts the yellow seal, he will become a member of the master, and he will become a protoss who rules thousands of worlds. The figure in the yellow cloak directly He said to Bai Lin: "You are a special existence... The old ruler has seen a future different from ordinary people from you..."
Bai Lin felt that he had almost lost himself. He turned his head and saw that the summoning guidebook that had been with him had disappeared, but the scar on his forehead felt a tingling pain, which brought his rationality back to his soul.
"You don't talk, I thought this scene was just a large PPT that played automatically, and it was used for brainwashing anyway..." Bai Lin complained. Now that his sanity has returned, he is not afraid of Hastur at all. How many light-years away from Hastur could hurt him, and the earth would have fallen long ago.
Hastur said calmly: "In front of the king in yellow, you are too presumptuous..."
Gu Bailin shrugged and said, "Let's be more realistic. You and I are now in a hostile relationship. Do you still expect me to worship you?" What is important and special about it? Is it about... R'lyeh?"
"Raliyah" is the ancient city where Cthulhu slept in Bai Lin's "previous life" memory, hidden somewhere at the bottom of the Pacific Ocean, and Hasta and Cthulhu, who is also the old ruler, are old enemies.
Asta seemed to be staring at Bai Lin, and said after a few seconds: "Special earthlings...you managed to get the attention of the king in yellow...we will meet again..."
Bai Lin suddenly felt as if he had fallen into an ice hole for three or nine days. His whole body shivered from the cold, and a light flashed in front of his eyes. He felt that his soul had been pulled back into his body.
As soon as he opened his eyes, Bai Lin saw a bucket of water with ice cubes poured down his head.
"WTF! I'm so cold!" Bai Lin shivered, and then he saw clearly that Zhuobi was holding his shoulders to prevent himself from losing his balance and falling, while Hagrid was holding a large bucket in his hand, watching happily. look at yourself.
Youqian quickly gave Bai Lin a "waterproof and moisture-proof" protection, and within a second, Bai Lin felt that his clothes and hair were completely dry, "Praise the magic!" Bai Lin still shivered again.
"How long have I been in a daze? Where are the books?" Bai Lin asked.
"In less than ten seconds," Kaka said, "the ghost book is there, it seems to be sealed! You just shot a light from your eyes..."
Yuqian hurriedly stepped aside to let Bai Lin see the ancient book still thrown in the grass, but at this moment it was surrounded by a golden unknown magic circle, and a golden miniature owl the size of a finger was flying around the ancient book, as if it was The patron saint of Bailin——Hushen Eagle Owl.
With a wave of Bai Lin's hand, the ancient book disappeared in a flash, and was directly put into the summoning illustration book.
At this time, all teammate's illustration systems were notified:
[One-time reward task: Assault on the shadow is completed, get 3000 team contribution points. ]
[Seized a special foreign text, assessing its value...]
[Successfully uploaded to the Wisdom Tree Array of Myriad Worlds, as a reward, the habitat space of the Summoning Illustration Book has been increased to 27.4 hectares (previously it was 14.5 hectares, almost doubled), and the increased area is water space. ]
Seeing the last reminder, Hagrid's eyes widened, and he felt refreshed all of a sudden.
"Don't even think about using the habitat to raise fried-tailed snails!" Bai Lin said.
Hagrid: "..."
Kaka said: "The matter here is over. Leave the aftermath to me. I have experts to deal with it."
Bai Lin nodded gratefully to Kaka and said, "Thank you for your hard work..." He was worried about the messy flower fields, hillsides, and churches, and he didn't know how much trouble it would cause. There should be some not-so-good memories..."
Kaka nodded and said: "I will report to the Italian Department of Magic. I still have some contacts with the Vatican, and I should arrange them properly. The boundary stone at the back will be cheaper for me. You can think about how to distribute it." I don’t need the team’s contribution points, you buy some equipment for everyone.”
Bai Lin took it for granted, especially those who charge forward like Qiqi need to invest in equipment.He called out to Phoenix in his heart, and within a minute, Phoenix was teleported from the hotel beside Genoa Bay.
It's not that Bai Lin doesn't want to fight with Phoenix. It's because the scene of a Hastur cultist controlling dozens of goblin mages with a single spell in the arena really frightened him. Brainwashed races are more susceptible to mind magic.
"Take us back to Hogwarts, oh my old waist, I feel like I'll have to lie down for a week to recover..." Bai Lin grinned.
Worried about his weakness, Youqian hurriedly stepped forward and hugged his arm, feeling the tenderness on his arm, and Bai Lin also felt his heart flutter.
"Um, captain, how do we deal with this thing?" Zhuobi pointed to the mirror that closed Asatel's rotten flesh.
"Old Addison will find a way. Throw him into the furnace. Whether he is a god or a ghost, he will be wiped out." Bai Lin waved his hands.
Bai Lin and Kaka shook hands heavily, and bid farewell. This time, Bai Lin never thought of Kaka as a sissy, but was impressed by his powerful holy light magic and organizational ability.
"What's the matter? If you want me, come to Paris to see me~" Kaka blinked and said.
Old Bai Lin blushed, and quickly let go of his hand, letting Phoenix take him back to Hogwarts. Phoenix swallowed, looked at the teams standing in a row waiting to be transferred, and wiped the cold sweat from his forehead.
The team who returned to Hogwarts almost fell asleep. The shadow dream, the witch-hunt dream and the meeting with Hastur above, the three games were all spiritual magic. Feeling extremely tired.
When Bai Lin woke up, it was already Monday morning, and he just turned over, only to find that there was someone sleeping beside him—Yuqian was sleeping soundly with his arm on his head.
"Damn it! What happened?" Bai Lin was really frightened. Although he had a good impression of Yuqian, she was well-behaved, hardworking, and understanding. She was definitely an excellent candidate for a girlfriend, but Bai Lin Lin has not yet gotten out of his relationship with Catherine, nor is he mentally prepared to start a new relationship.
What's more, in a corner of Bai Lin's heart, there are two figures.The first one is Xuelin who is already a little blurry, and the other is Lulu who kissed Bai Lin in the basement room of Rose's house.
Bai Lin has always felt guilty towards Xuelin, but towards Lulu he feels that he is not worthy of her, not because she is the heir of the Ross family, nor because she is a well-known singer, but because he feels that Lulu is an extremely self-reliant Girls, sometimes Bai Lin feels that she can solve all problems without herself.
Regardless of the mixed feelings in Bai Lin's heart, Youqian squeezed into his arms with a happy face.
Because it was early autumn, everyone didn't wear much, but when Bai Lin saw Youqian in her pajamas neatly, she felt a little relieved at first, and then a little regretful, which can be described as quite complicated.
Bai Lin wanted to pull his hand out, but Yu Qian was still awakened.
"Captain...you...I..." Yuqian rubbed her eyes, her face flushed immediately, and her shy look aroused pity.
Bai Lin scratched his head, and didn't know how to explain it for a while. Could it be that he just told the girl that we were fine, and just hugged and slept together. Nothing happened, and the labor and management would not be responsible?
"I'm sorry... Captain... I can't sleep well... Only by your side can I not have nightmares..." Youqian apologized to Bai Lin like a child who has done something wrong.
"What?...Oh...it's okay...next time...tell me in advance..." Bai Lin felt like a fool.
