Royal City.

Taboo Arms.

Under the huge ring of true silver, a man in white robes rushed over and shouted: "Chief! Something big has happened!"

On the silver altar, a figure wrapped in silver light suddenly turned around.

"What did you say?"

——

When Rhodes opened his eyes again, he had returned to his room in the dungeon.

Recalling the last moment, he jumped up suddenly, picked up a robe and put it on, and rushed out the door.

In the hall outside, the soldiers who were queuing up to be purified all turned around.

O'Hara was surprised: "Commander, when did you come back?"

Rhodes didn't answer. He used his spiritual power under his feet and jumped straight up along the wall.

O'Hara shouted: "Commander, where are you going?"

No answer, the person has disappeared.

Everyone looked at each other, and Annabeth hesitated: "Why does it seem like it's empty inside?"

Mina, who was studying the relics brought back from Fanxing Town, glanced at her: "Are you crazy about men? Do you want me to help you?"

Annabeth immediately blushed and said angrily: "Come on, think I'm afraid of you!"

"Haha, you said it."

"Come on!"

"Let's go!"

"Come on!"

……

O'Hara turned his attention to Baywood, who shrugged and expressed his helplessness.

——

——

Rhodes didn't even bring a lantern and went straight into the black mist.

After exploding with all his strength, within a moment, he stepped into Fanxing Town and returned to the point where he exploded just now.

All the monsters have disappeared, not even Ash is left.

The architecture has not changed at all. Some of the squares, pools, fountains, and street lights from 1,500 years ago have been destroyed, but they still exist.

Mavis, wearing a white robe, is standing in the center. Her figure is like a non-existent white ghost in the ancient town under the dim black fog.

Rhodes was startled suddenly and shouted: "Mephis!"

She did not move, but a slight breeze blew and her robe swayed, proving that she was an entity.

This... what's going on? The exploding void swallowed the monster, why didn't it swallow her?

Rhodes remembered his prophecy to her and shouted again: "Mephis! Are you there?"

Mavis moved for a moment, as if he had just come back to his senses from some kind of trance.

"It's Rhodes..."

Rhodes was overjoyed. He could speak, so he was not a monster. He shouted: "Mephis, what's wrong with you? How did you... survive? Didn't the void swallow you up?"

Mavis did not turn around, her voice was very soft and toneless, like the ashes after the emotions were burned out.

"The strange hollow energy bypassed me, and all the monsters fell into it...but I didn't. Why, I couldn't even die?"

Rhodes was horrified and shouted: "Mephis! Why did you commit suicide? Isn't it good to live? Although the world is dark, there are also days like Hanukkah! We wait for the light in the darkness, and we will eventually see the light.

, isn’t it bad?”

Mavis lowered his head.

"No...I don't have light."

"Why not?"

Rhodes shouted eagerly:

"Didn't I promise you? As long as you are here, I will take care of you. You will not be treated differently and no one can hurt you."

"Don't look at me now, and there is nothing here. Soon, Fanxing Town will return to human territory. When I light the fire in the town, countless residents will come over, and there will be a new human race here.

The settlement is a paradise comparable to the upper part of the royal city, a promised land full of happiness, joy, laughter, and no discrimination, prejudice, or hatred."

"And I will also become the new generation pillar of Trolian. I said, I will break your shackles for you, believe me, okay?"

Mavis said softly: "It's useless, everything is a lie. When everyone sees my true face, their admiration will turn into hatred, enthusiasm will turn into fear, fascination will turn into hatred, and admiration will turn into contempt. There is no exception.

I am just a monster in this world..."

Rod shouted: "No, you are not! I am the exception! My admiration is admiration, enthusiasm is enthusiasm, infatuation is infatuation, admiration is admiration, and it will not change just because your appearance changes. Come back quickly, we are

Best partner, I have come up with a wonderful battle plan..."

There was a hint of sarcasm in Mavis's voice.

"...Really?"

With a sneer, the rotten black substance came out of the robe behind her back, extending like a branch, forming a pair of withered wings. It was sticky and gray, and liquid like a brain mixture seeped and dripped from the dead branches.

Cold air radiated from her body, solidifying the liquid into an even more disgusting gray-white substance.

Rhodes couldn't help but took a step back, but his reason immediately froze his feet to the ground and said softly.

"Is your curse out of control? Don't worry, it's okay, I..."

Mavis turned around, and a face that was far uglier than that of Yao Po came into view. Her deep wrinkles were covered with abscesses and corruption, and pits formed by rotten flesh and blood were spread all over her cheeks. Her lower jaw was rotten, and her hair was

With her black tongue dragging in front of her neck, she no longer looked like a person, but like a banshee.

"Look."

Mavis moved the corners of her mouth, revealing an ugly but sincere smile that she had never seen before, as if she had lost all restraints.

"This is what I look like now, after all the curses are out of control..."

Rhode suppressed his fear and nausea and shouted: "I will remove them!"

Mavis’s smile turned happy for some reason.

"I'm sorry, that beautiful me is also cursed. Even if you save me, you won't get a beautiful woman."

"I'm sorry to disappoint you..."

Without even thinking about it, Rhodes immediately shouted: "No, no matter you are beautiful or ugly, no matter what you become, my promise will never..."

Mavis interrupted him.

"Kiss me."

She opened her hands, her silver eyes were curved, as if she had a cunning plan to succeed, but deep in her eyes was a deep sadness.

Pus and blood dripped from her face, the blackened tongue trembled in the air, and the rotten lips just wanted to make people vomit.

But Rhodes did not hesitate for a moment, took a leap, held her in his arms, and kissed her lips before she could react.

Humanity dropped crazily at this moment. Rhodes had saved up for so long, but his total humanity was only over 800,000, and he had lost more than 100,000 in the blink of an eye.

The body in her arms moved and she wanted to break away, but Rhodes tightened his grip and hugged her tightly.

The deep kiss is almost breathtaking.

The body in her arms gradually became soft from stiffness. A dazzling white light rose from her body. The flickering mist of light engulfed them. The black mist retreated thousands of yards at some point, revealing the high sky and the entire town.

.

At some point, Mavis's hands hugged Rhodes' back. Her breath was warm and her lips were soft. The curse dissipated and she became a human.

But she is not the beautiful Mavis before, but a rather ordinary girl. Her skin is not smooth and tender, and her complexion is not white. Her eyes have turned to gray-brown, her silver hair has turned to black hair, and her cheeks are

There are some freckles, and the appearance has become ordinary, with only a little girl's delicacy, just like the daughter of a commoner family.

She no longer had the beauty of a goddess, but Rhodes didn't care, and even moved his hand down uncontrollably.

But this time, Mavis did not stop him, but stood on tiptoe.

Rhodes felt her arc and warmth, but he did not take any further action and instead let her go.

Mephis' face was slightly red, and her eyes seemed to be filled with water, and she only looked at Rhodes.

The next moment, with a cold snort, dozens of people wearing white robes with silver rings on their chests descended from the sky, surrounding them, with long silver tridents pointed directly at them.

"Mephis!"

The one-eyed dragon in the lead said coldly and vigilantly.
