Lord of Mysteries: Yao Guang

Chapter 557 Must abide by the rules

Esther and Kah continued to approach the golden clouds, but before they could get completely close, they stagnated in mid-air.

The objects moving among the clouds were all stone statues like armor sculptures. Black armor and white armor walked in pairs. Several of them flew downwards at the same time, blocking Esther and Kah. After the two men's flight path, they quickly surrounded the two outsiders from all directions, silently raising their weapons.

The two armors with opposite colors, although they are also nearly two meters high, show an extremely uncoordinated style when compared with each other:

The left shoulder of the black armor is covered with spiral spikes of different lengths, and the right shoulder is covered with bumps and iron nails. This weird design extends down to the breastplate and leg armor, and the front end of one iron boot is raised high. , but the other one is a pair of high heels with sharp knives, leaving no doubt that if someone puts them on, they will fall to the ground when walking in the next second.

White armor is another style - complete symmetry. From the elegant streamlined armor, the tight gaps covered by the armor, to the delicate and gorgeous carvings, all angles and lengths are uniform. Including the seemingly cut gap on the right side of the helmet, there are also identical traces on the symmetrical left side. It is so perfect that no deviation can be found, which is enough to satisfy any obsessive-compulsive disorder's pursuit of symmetrical aesthetics.

Gray-black wings in the shape of steel bones and iron feathers extend from the backs of both armors. However, when those stiff wings are spread to both sides, there is no extra movement, they are just slightly raised. It is obvious that their function is not to fly, but to fly. It is some kind of special attack method.

The black armor's left hand holds a spear that is the same height as his own, and his right hand holds up a curved crescent-shaped machete, which looks like it will chop down at any time, while the white armor's movements are more uniform, and they pull out two symmetrical machetes from behind. The long swords were crisscrossed in front of him in a defensive posture.

When these wary armors floated around, Esther couldn't help lowering her voice and asked the crow on her shoulder: "Do we really not need to go back to the ground to play chess? Both black and white chess are ready... …”

Even when she was muttering in a low voice, Esther's attention never moved away from these movable armors for a moment. She did not want to cause unnecessary accidents due to carelessness. Although she didn't think these armors could hurt her, the large number of them surrounding her still brought an invisible sense of oppression.

However, Crow and Kahe were not affected at all. Kahe even had time to reply to Esther: "The prerequisite for playing chess is that the chess pieces must be obedient, right? Do you think they will pay attention to your orders?"

Just when Kahe finished these words, a black armor and a white armor took a step forward. The black armor slammed the machete down hard, and slammed it on the two swords set up by the white armor, making a rather dull shock. ring.

This can't be an internal fight. These armors themselves don't have any consciousness, they just act according to certain rules. Thinking of the "rules" mentioned by Kach before, Esther had a bad feeling in her heart, at least until So far, she has not seen anything with the rules of this place written on it, and there is no text displayed nearby.

So, another way to "show" the rules is to demonstrate them with actions.

When Esther thought of this, she felt a sudden light on her shoulders. The figure of the crow had disappeared, but she didn't know where it was hiding.

But soon, Esther understood the reason why the crow was hiding.

The two stepped forward, first approaching the black and white armor of Esther and Kah. At this moment, they ended their previous brief sword fight and turned around.

"Don't move." The crow's hoarse voice sounded in his ears.

Although Esther frowned, she suppressed her instinct to dodge.

The spear in the black armor was pressed down, pointing directly in Esther's direction, while the two swords in the white armor were raised forward, aimed at Kah next to him.

Kach pinched the monocle of his right eye: "What? I should obviously be more in line with the aesthetics of 'Black Chess', right?"

Esther's spirituality began to give stronger and stronger warnings, but she only had a vague guess about what she was going to do: "So what they mean is..."

"Yes, they have already demonstrated their actions. Don't be stupid. You also have weapons in your hands."

The "Logan's Claw" on Esther's right hand was clasped between her fingers, but she still didn't lift it up: "They want me to have a fight with you? Is this the rule here?"

"It's obvious, isn't it?" Kahe put a hand beside her cheek, which made her cheerful smile look particularly playful, "I thought this would be something you have been looking forward to for a long time."

"But--"

Esther swallowed the rest of her words. It was true that she had a problem with Kach, but as for the urge to attack, why didn't she go to Amon?

He couldn't beat him anyway, at least Esther was sure of this.

Kahe didn't care what Esther was thinking at the moment. Even if she stole, she couldn't steal her ideas. He simply nodded with a smile: "It's not up to you to decide. You either abide by it or wait..."

"wait?"

Before Esther's voice of doubt fell, she felt another pressure that made her shoulders heavy. All distracting thoughts were abandoned, except for the idea of ​​obeying orders.

An invisible push surrounded Esther, gradually exerting it on her shoulders and elbows, lifting her right arm, causing the claw knife to jump up briskly with the push of her fingers, as if staring at the prey. The falcon is ready to go.

But Esther's expression was dazed for a moment, and she quickly regained her composure. She blinked at Kach: "This is really an unpleasant sense of control... You can catch it, right?"

"Of course, after all, 'catching your attack' is also part of their demonstration."

Esther glanced at the pairs of black and white armors from the corner of her eyes: "What will happen if you don't follow their instructions?"

"How about we give it a try? Maybe something interesting will happen."

Seeing Kah's malicious eyes, Esther immediately put aside her previous hesitation.

With a twist of her body, she passed the short distance between her and Kach. The "Logan's Claw" in her hand imitated the previous movements of the black armor and struck down in the direction of Kach - Esther immediately realized Even if she wanted to take back her strength, the invisible pressure brought by the "rules" would not let her get past it so easily - a circle of shadow attached to the outside of the claw knife, forming a heavier and majestic black blade, crossing Esther's control fell on Kah's head!

Kahe's response was even simpler. She raised her arms and simply crossed her two fingers to easily hold Esther's claw knife and the black blade with invisible pressure.

Then the white sword shadow lit up from between Kahe's hands. After a stalemate for a few seconds, it disappeared beside him at the same time as the black blade.

Esther immediately felt the pressure on her shoulders dissipate. Kahe's light response made Esther feel relieved. She really shouldn't treat Kahe as an ordinary extraordinary person...

Oh, Kahe is also Amon, so that’s okay.

As soon as Esther thought of this, she subconsciously touched the blade of "Logan's Claw". She was still not used to Kah's appearance as a woman.

The black armor and the white armor moved again, but this time the roles of the attack were reversed. The smooth long sword in the white armor's right hand pointed diagonally, and then slashed heavily in the direction of the black armor, while the black armor completely gave up on the confrontation. .

Although the white armor only uses the sword on the right hand, when the long sword extends from the shoulder armor to the outside of the breastplate, it leaves a nearly half-meter-long hole in the black armor. On the other side of the completely symmetrical armor, an identical second line is also displayed. crack.

The black armor, which had a chaotic appearance, instantly turned into a piece of scrap metal.

Esther's heart skipped a beat. If she followed the "rules" just now, would she have to change people this time? When she looked at Kahe, she happened to meet Kahe's interested eyes.

Seeing Esther observing his expression, Kah smiled even deeper: "Look, it's my turn this time?"

But when the black and white armor separated again, Kahe's smile froze.

The long sword in the white armor was pointed at Esther, but the one demonstrated by Kah changed into black armor.

Esther innocently wiped the claw knife twice: "That is to say, you really can't blame me..."
