Dragon Clan: Lu Mingfei returns from Sekiro

"Sakura, it's so cold. It's so dark. I'm so scared. I can't hear your voice." Eryi hugged Lu Mingfei's neck tightly. Her eyes seemed to be invisible, and the red-gold light was dim. Coming down, the original dark red pupils turned into pitch black at this moment.

Her shoulders shook like a frightened child.

"I'm here, don't be afraid." Princess Lu Mingfei held Hui Liyi in her arms, facing the light from the gate of the Kingdom of God, and walked forward firmly.

Eriki groped around in panic, as if to confirm whether Lu Mingfei was around.

Lu Mingfei held one of her hands. It was cold to the touch. The blood in her body was flowing very slowly at the moment and was slowly losing temperature.

The worm emerged from the thick fog, and Uesugi inspired the [furious] sword energy to draw a perfect circle.

"Where's your trump card! Don't wait until something happens to make you regret it!"

The black sun broke out into a more violent hurricane, and Eri's long hair was fluttering in the wind. They were in the eye of the hurricane, but they were not affected by the suction.

Uesugi cut his arm, and blood flowed from the wound. Although he was old, it was royal blood after all. The taste of the blood immediately attracted the attention of these insects. He fed the insects with his body and fought for Lu Mingfei. time.

"Lu Mingze." Lu Mingfei called loudly.

"Young one is here." Lu Mingze smiled: "Oh my, this is really a big crisis. Do you want to make a deal with me?"

As usual, the flow of time becomes extremely slow at this moment, as if the pause button has been pressed.

"Let Eli Yi recover." Lu Mingfei said.

But Lu Mingze spread his hands helplessly: "I can't do it."

"Why?"

"She is very healthy. There is nothing to recover from."

"You call this healthy?"

"Even if you send her to a well-equipped hospital now, the doctor will only tell you that she is healthier than what is written in the textbook. What she has been expelled is her spirit and soul. Those are the rules set. Only I can't change it now."

"Then send her away, send her outside, away from Nighogg's remains, and she can return to normal."

"How is it possible? Brother, do you think the rules are so easy to deceive the past? She has already triggered the conditions for expulsion. No matter where she escapes, it will be useless. She shares the power and power of the White King with Fenrir. You can help her When it comes to blood transfusion, it is destined to happen one day, it’s just that it comes early or it comes late.”

"Don't you think you can do anything you say? Think of a way?" Lu Mingfei hugged Eliyi tightly in his arms, but he couldn't compromise on losing her.

"I can't do it, but someone can do it." Lu Mingze pointed at Lu Mingfei: "Brother, you are the only one who can do this."

"Me?" Lu Mingfei was stunned: "But what should I do?"

"Should we save her no matter what?"

"No matter what, I'll give you my last quarter in exchange."

"Even if she loses you after the exchange, are you willing?"

"Yes, as long as she lives."

"Brother, you have never been so willing to treat me." Lu Mingze stared at Eliyi's flawless profile in a joking way: "But this time, you don't need to pay the last quarter. After all, I can't help. Why do I have to do this? I have to rely on you. Let me reiterate again, are you going to save her no matter what?"

"No matter what." Lu Mingfei looked determined.

"Well, it seems that I can't persuade you anymore, so let's go to Nidhogg to discuss it. I hope you can convince that guy, but don't give up halfway. If you give up, there will be no future for this world. You won't even have a chance to ascend the throne. Sacrificing the whole world for the woman you love is really a praiseworthy love. Brother, if you can't come back, I will work hard to avenge you, come on."

After saying that, Lu Mingze pushed Lu Mingfei.

The force was not strong, but Lu Mingfei staggered and fell forward.

He felt that his body became extremely light and floated, and then a huge suction force came from the front, and the dark keel was like a black hole, sucking him in.

He couldn't see anything clearly, couldn't feel anything, and it was like he was in a void.

When he opened his eyes again, he was surrounded by darkness, with fluttering bands of light flowing around him. Pictures he had never seen before flashed before his eyes like movie reels. A large amount of information poured into his mind, and he couldn't help it. Understand, but seem to understand everything.

At this moment, eternal silence enveloped him. He saw the birth and annihilation of countless stars, and saw the rapid collapse of galaxies.

He was as small as a mayfly, helpless in the explosion of bright light and silence.

But suddenly, everything stopped, the light of the stars dimmed, everything returned to nothingness, darkness enveloped everything.

In the next still moment, he felt that he had passed through the "door" and reached the reality of the world.

There was still nothing here, it was pure white. He suddenly woke up and saw "himself" on the opposite side.

Just like "Lu Mingfei" in the mirror, he was wearing the same black trench coat as Lu Mingfei, carrying the same Immortal Slash as Lu Mingfei, and hanging around his waist was the same wedge pill as Lu Mingfei.

But Lu Mingfei was standing, but he was sitting cross-legged in the pure white space, his eyes quiet and calm.

The concepts of space and self disappeared at this moment, and Lu Mingfei could clearly feel that the person sitting there was "himself".

If you have to use a metaphor, it's like the difference between "left and right brains" that the vice-principal once mentioned to Lu Mingfei.

For people who have undergone pons surgery, the left and right brains will work separately, but even if the physical connection is cut off, there is an invisible connection between the left and right brains.

At this moment, Lu Mingfei felt that the severed pons was connected. Although he and the person sitting there were not connected individuals, they shared a "self".

"Are you me?" Lu Mingfei looked at him and said his first words hesitantly.

"That's a good question." The mirror image Lu Mingfei stood up with his hands and stretched out his hand towards Lu Mingfei: "Yes, I am you, you are me, I am your body, and you are my soul.

Soul, how are you? Have you found the answer you want? Has your understanding of life become deeper? Is the outside world wonderful? I'm looking forward to your return. Come, let's re-integrate into one, bring our spirits back, and then go find the 'truth'. "

"No, you are not me." Lu Mingfei shook his head: "You are Nidhogg."

"Nidhogg?" The mirror suddenly laughed loudly: "Does the name mean anything to us? I am you, you are me, don't run away from yourself, and don't run away from the truth."

"I'm not you, and you're not me." Lu Mingfei still shook his head.

"If you have forgotten, then let me remember it for you." Mirror Image flatly stretched out his right hand, holding the sun in his hand!

No. It's not the sun, it's a molten rock emitting extreme heat. It's suspended and rotating slowly.

That was the newborn Earth, where there was no life, just flowing magma.

Another black meteorite slightly smaller than the earth struck. The meteorite and the earth merged together, causing an earth-shattering impact. The lava wrapped the meteorite. The impact caused the magma to fluctuate violently. It rotated and swung rapidly like a twitching top. The outgoing magma gathered to form the nascent moon.

Seeds were wrapped in the black meteorite. As the earth's surface cooled, the seeds took root and sprouted, growing into a towering tree whose shade covered the entire continent.

As time passed, the tree bore fruit, which fell to the ground and turned into a black dragon.

"That's us, we are the black emperors, dominating all things in the world." The mirror said: "The body, soul and spirit are perfectly integrated. We are the greatest creation."

"But we are separated, the body is divided into two, and the soul and spirit each dwell in it."

Lu Mingfei had seen that scene. The original black dragon formed a cocoon and differentiated into an older brother and younger brother.

Then came the birth of the White King and the four dragon clans, and the day when the dragon clan prospered, all of which was staged on the earth stage in the hands of the mirror.

Those dragons, as tiny as ants, built spires and erected copper pillars on the land. Life exploded. The once silent world became noisy, and humans also appeared on this stage.

"You gnawed at the roots of the trees, and for the pleasure of spreading the seeds of life, you allowed them to develop, watching everything until your favorite child betrayed you."

One day, the white dragon gathered one-third of the clan, that is the White King, who refined one-third of the dragon clan into the Philosopher's Stone. Even if he owned one-third of the world, he was not satisfied. To replace its father and become the supreme emperor.

The giant black dragon rushed over with a mournful cry. He erected a copper pillar in the center of the sea and locked the white dragon in the gap of the copper pillar with an iron chain. Thunderstorms fell there every day and the ice was frozen for thousands of miles.

"Even if it betrays you, you still love it. You hope that the punishment will make it beg for mercy. You go to see it a hundred years later, but it already hates you to its core."

The black dragon looked up to the sky and let out an extremely sad roar. That was his first child, which entrusted him with his original hope for beauty.

In the end, the black dragon tore the white dragon into pieces, sank into the volcano, swallowed the ashes, and banished its soul, never to be resurrected.

That day the whole world could hear the wail and pain of the black dragon.

From that day on, the Black Dragon slept under the World Tree, leaving everything to his younger brother.

"You feel confused. You have the greatest power and power. Everything in this world is born from you, but you have lost the child you love most."

"Life is just a toy in your hands. In an instant, you can destroy the so-called civilization, even cleanse the memory of the traitor, and create an identical one. The new children will be more obedient than the previous ones."

"But what's the point of doing this? What is life?"

"In order to solve this problem, you and I separated."

The body and soul of the black dragon were separated. The body remained under the World Tree, retaining almost all its powers. The soul cleaned away all memories and reincarnated in that weak human civilization.

Then, the body woke up, and the younger brother realized that his brother's soul was not there. He only cared about his brother, so he also abandoned his body and pursued his brother's soul.

The bodies of the two merged together again, and the new Black King was born, who called himself Nidhogg.

"This is the birth of Nidhogg. I am the supreme emperor. I am the body abandoned by you. You are me and I am you."

The mirror explains everything calmly.

"This is the Father, the Holy Spirit, and the Son. We are one and whole. As long as we return to unity, we will be the Trinity."

Lu Mingfei looked at "himself" and finally understood the relationship between Nidhogg and him, the relationship between him and Lu Mingze, and what the Holy Spirit was.

But he hasn't exchanged the last quarter with Lu Mingze, so he is still himself, not the omnipotent god.

"Soul, although you have not reached the agreed deadline, you have come to my side, so have you found the meaning of life?" Mirror Image asked.

"I don't know, and I'm not here to talk to you about this." Lu Mingfei has not forgotten what his purpose is.

"Shh." The mirror raised its index finger in front of its lips: "I am you, and I know what you are thinking, but have you forgotten, that is the rule we set together."

"How do you want to change this rule?" Lu Mingfei asked.

"Why change it? Does it mean anything whether humans exist or not?"

The mirror tilted its head.

"I am also thinking about the meaning of life. The result of my thinking is that life other than ours is meaningless at all. Only we are real, and everything that is not me is empty.

Humans, birds, reptiles. What is the significance of their existence? Except for us, all other life will perish. The so-called immortal dragons are just because they are part of us. We should be reunited and unified, break away from the shackles of this world, and pursue a real life like us. '.

Soul, this is the answer you long for. Give up that dusty human being. There are endless possibilities waiting for us. As long as you accept me, we can get everything. "

The mirror image opened its arms, as if waiting for Lu Mingfei to hug him.

At this moment, Lu Mingfei finally understood what the word "greed" written by the author in that notebook meant.

What can satisfy "Greedy Mario" is not modifying the invincibility code, defeating Baku, and taking away the princess.

No matter how beautiful the princess is, she has no attraction to him. What he wants is to jump out of Mario's world and jump to a higher level. For this, both the princess and Baku will become his victims.

But Lu Mingfei is "Selfish Mario", he is selfish, he only wants to protect what he has.

"You are me and I am you."

Lu Mingfei already understood this sentence.

"Let's make a bet."

"Bet?"

"If I lose, then I will accept you wholeheartedly. You don't have to pay any price if you lose. The condition is that you have to abolish that rule with me."

"For that human? What do you want to bet on?"

"Betting on my future."

"Do you want... Hahaha, do you want to stay with me? Okay! Then bet, bet on the future of you and the world!"
