I Created the Myth of the Old Ruler

"Is it okay if he runs away?"

Shia asked, wondering where Stone had been gotten by this sludge monster.

"After all, he is also the son of an acquaintance. Keep a line in your behavior so that we can meet each other easily in the future."

Lu Tiao thought about the ancient capital that was still fighting against the gods behind the door, and did not pursue and fight Stone.

"Speaking of which, what should I do with this thing?"

He pointed at the blooming glass flower. The entire Catania family mansion was occupied by this flower. Amidst the ruins and decay, a bright flower bloomed.

Inside the glass-textured outer wall is gray, sticky mud. The surface of the mud is turbulent, and there seem to be countless distorted, hateful, and sad faces mixed in it.

No matter what world it is in, this is a stunning work of art.

"How about blowing it up?"

Shia's hands felt a little itchy, and she looked at Drizzt beside her.

"Drizzt, what's wrong with you?"

The famous detective from the abandoned city looked at this scene with his mouth wide open and speechless.

"You just defeated the leader of the biggest gang in this city and blew up his house?"

Drizzt seemed to have just come to his senses.

"Is there anything wrong?"

Lu Tan asked back.

"No, this is wrong. It's okay for you. You completed the mission of the Quiet Place and ran away, but I still have to stay here. By then, everyone in the Catania family will come to trouble me. Do I still want to eat?"

Drizzt felt his life in danger.

He just broke into the Catania family's mansion, and then Coneone died and Stone ran away. It was 100% his doing!

"It's that simple. Just throw all the blame to Stone."

Lu Tan said without thinking.

"You treat the son of an acquaintance like this? Didn't you just say that you should keep a line in your behavior?"

Drizzt was stunned.

"If Stone died here, then you wouldn't be able to defend yourself. He has run away now and will definitely not come back to confront you. Whatever you say will be whatever you say."

Lu Tan patted Drizzt on the shoulder to reassure him.

"So that's why you let him go?"

Drizzt suddenly felt that Lu Tan was quite scary. He looked like he wasn't thinking about anything, but in fact he was thinking about everything.

"That's not true. I think Stone may do something else in the future. After all, I'm not a devil. I won't do something like killing everyone."

Lu Tian felt that after the incident with Hejima, the life and death of the aborigines in foreign lands were sometimes not something he could decide.

After enduring the ravings of the great being, the sludge monster should have lost all its sanity, and would only become an infinitely expanding, blind and stupid existence like its counterparts in the hospital.

But it finally restrained itself and protected Stone.

Reminiscent of Stone's name for the sludge monster, the human characteristics it exhibits, it's hard to say whether it was a mistake caused by being forced to be born before it was fully born.

In this case, it would be pointless to forcefully pursue Stone, and it might even dig a hole for his future self.

"You can find an opportunity to track Stone's whereabouts. He is not an ordinary person. If you are willing, you can take him in as an assistant."

Lu Tan said again.

"???"

Drizzt couldn't understand.

Now the Catania family is 100% seeking revenge on Stone. He will be hunted endlessly, and even his dreams and hopes have been shattered. It is too late to kill Drizzt, so why would he help him?

"You don't understand. Stone is a smart man. He has witnessed extraordinary power. He knows the stakes very well, just like Cone. As long as he can benefit, he doesn't care whether he was a friend or an enemy before."

Lu Tiao explained.

"You have solved the case of the Catania family. The people in their family will thank you. The people at the top will provide you with shelter because you indirectly solved the case of Cone. The people in the Catania family will soon Because they lost their leader, they fell apart and began to fight among themselves. Lao Cui, your future is bright!"

"I hope what you said is true."

Drizzt felt exhausted.

"Remember to treat us to delicious food then."

Shia was only interested in food, but she thought about it again.

"So, who is this sludge, and why does it listen to Stone?"

"I think it may be that Stone himself was exposed to foreign pollution, so the monster regarded him as a kindred spirit, or he had helped Liz, so when the girl was swallowed by the rampaging monster, the remaining consciousness chose Stone. Pass?"

Drizzt pulled his thoughts away from the question of how to deal with the aftermath.

"It's better to ask it himself."

Lu Tan pointed at the blooming glass flower.

The monster is dead, and this glass flower may become a landmark building here, standing in the wealthy area.

But there must be a reason why it chose Drizzt to display those dreams.

Drizzt reached out and touched the crystal clear glass flower. In an instant, the scenery in front of him changed.

This is some kind of pollution penetrating his consciousness, bringing him knowledge but also erosion.

Drizzt saw that he was lying on a bed.

This is that room.

He felt that his body was very weak, and even breathing was exhausting all his strength.

There was a loud noise outside the door, and I didn't know what was going on.

Suddenly, a burst of footsteps came.

Drizzt's eyes turned to the direction of the door. The dilapidated door was pushed open violently, and Liz rushed in with a look of anxiety on her face. She hurriedly closed the door.

"There are many people outside, and they all have guns. It may be Mr. Tucker. They may be coming to see Mr. Tucker. We must leave immediately."

Saying that, Liz wanted to pick up Drizzt, but with the weak strength of a girl, it was obviously impossible to succeed. She failed once and twice. The sound outside the door became louder and louder. This time, Drizzt could Clearly heard, it was gunshots.

Bang bang bang——

The door was pushed open, and the yells were mixed with wails. Drizzt saw that the person outside the door had a bullet through his head, and the blood stained the wall red.

"ah!"

Liz screamed as she saw people in black suits passing by the door. Several of them came forward and shot into the next room.

After a while, the next door became quiet, and there seemed to be some sound, followed by another burst of gunfire.

Liz covered her mouth and hugged Drizzt. She stared blankly at the gangsters outside the door, unable to make any sound.

"It's him, it's him."

Drizzt saw the gang brought a woman, it was Flora, she identified Tucker's body, she laughed maniacally.

The gangsters exchanged a few words and prepared to leave.

At this time, Flora suddenly looked at Liz and Drizzt in the room and raised her hand.

"These two are also Tucker's mistresses, we cannot let them survive."

The gangsters looked at each other, and several people took Flora away. Drizzt saw that one of them was McGee, and then, a man who looked like a gang leader walked into the room.

The man pinched Liz's face to confirm the little girl's appearance. Then, he began to tear Liz's clothes off and cursed some extremely unpleasant words in his mouth.

Liz struggled so violently that she scratched the man.

The gangster became so angry that he took out a pistol from his waist and shot Liz.

Bang bang bang——

Liz fell backwards, her petite body falling like petals.

Drizzt's vision turned red.

He felt that something was gushing out from his body along with strong emotions.

The gray sludge burst out of the body and tore the gangster into pieces.

More gangsters rushed in and opened fire. The bullets failed to cause any damage to Drizzt. Instead, tentacles made of silt penetrated the bodies of these people one by one. The will of the dead flowed into Drizzt's brain, making him feel A moment of dizziness.

Finally, the gangsters are dead.

Drizzt came to Liz. He looked at the girl who depended on him. The silt spread and covered Liz's body.

In Liz's eyes that gradually lost focus, Drizzt saw his last appearance.

It was a face that was almost the same as Liz's, but obviously thinner and more fragile.

"Stay alive."

Liz used her last strength to say a word and a name.

"Io."
