Chapter 172 The Tale of an Old Friend's Reunion and the Mocked Cross-dressing General
"A loyal minister, guarding the state for a thousand years, thinks of his wicked son in the darkness for ten thousand lifetimes, only to return in an instant."
After reaching an agreement with Lufa, Mislin returned to Hope City with Lufa's black robe.
Human vehicles are actually much faster than he can use his remaining energy.
Following the instructions of the road law,
Misslin did not linger at all.
They arrived directly around the Demon Suppression Tower.
He wore Lufa's black robe as clothing, and possession also required energy, which he needed to complete the final step.
Lufa wouldn't expend any extra effort; granting Misslin's wish was also a way of exploiting her greed and awe of mysterious powers.
To put it bluntly, it's just empty promises.
Therefore, we must be fast.
We can't let her realize what's happening.
"What does this couplet mean...?"
Upon seeing the ancient pagoda and the inscriptions on it, she felt that this place was very mysterious and had a story to tell, but she couldn't quite put her finger on it.
Misslin has survived in Hope City for so long.
It's amazing that this place, which looks so old, hasn't been developed into a tourist attraction.
This should be a great place for taking photos and checking in.
"Humph……"
"It's impossible for me to turn back..."
This was the first time Lufa had seen this seal from the outside... no, it was the place where he had temporarily stayed for a thousand years.
The couplet on the door was undoubtedly the advice given to his former boss and senior by those three "traitors".
"You calloused brat, do you really think you've done something great? I'm afraid your family will be unhappy because you've lost your breadwinner, and your unborn child won't be treated well... So what if you've accomplished something great?"
A hint of disdain flashed through Lu Fa's mind.
"Let's go in."
Lufa came to the Demon-Suppressing Tower not to reminisce about the past.
"Yes."
Misslin slowly walked in, wearing a black robe.
The instant I went in.
She was startled by the sheer number of ghostly demon statues.
The road rule is another manifestation.
"There are already so many?"
Lu Fa saw the progress of Zhang Zhao's resurrection of the Netherworld Demon.
Moreover, some of the fluctuations clearly just happened. His former subordinates might not be far away now. Has his perception weakened to this extent?
Lufa gave a wry smile.
"And we've lost all contact with each other..."
But Lufa knew that instead of lamenting, he should speed things up.
"Take a walk around inside this tower."
This tower, built atop the Afas, holds many secrets, but Lufa knows that, aside from preserving such an important item as the Vajra Pestle, the already dying Gorfa cannot manipulate anything else.
Most of the work was done by the three people he hired.
So it's something that those Earthlings don't know.
They dared not discard it.
At the same time, their methods of hiding things must not be too sophisticated.
It may contain some of their human creations and some of Ares's creations.
"Stop here..."
As Misslin walked under the wind chimes.
Lufa spoke.
"Is it a mechanism achieved through magnetic beads?"
"Although your skill level is decent, you're still no match for me..."
"The trigger mechanism is ingeniously designed, but the defense system is just so-so..."
"Go in that direction."
When Zhang Zhao forced him to hand over the Netherworld Legion and the Asura Armor Summoner at the Demon Suppression Tower, Lu Fa already had this plan, but he knew that the time from finding it to opening it would be enough for Zhang Zhao to kill him.
"Master has arrived."
Misslin was like an obedient, sexy little wildcat, completely following Lufa's orders.
"Now is the time to use your body."
His spiritual power slowly extended like tentacles, spreading towards Misslin's consciousness. Misslin felt a slight tingling sensation in his head.
Misslin's once lively eyes were gradually replaced by Lufa's deep and dignified gaze.
Her eyes were like pale purple flames that had been lit.
His fingers slowly bent, feeling the movement of the joints, the contraction and relaxation of every muscle.
The hands that emerged from the black robe had delicate and soft skin, a stark contrast to the powerful and resilient gauntlets of his former armor, which made him sigh inwardly at the frailty of the human body.
He gently raised his arms, moved his shoulders, and turned his neck, each movement carrying the awkwardness and novelty of entering a new body for the first time.
Lufa tried to take a step forward, but stumbled slightly due to his unfamiliarity with the woman's body's center of gravity. He frowned and muttered to himself, "This Earthling's body is so delicate; I'll need some time to get used to it. But now I have to make my move..."
Lu Fa steadied himself and began to gather the energy he had collected during this time.
He closed his eyes tightly, concentrated his mind, and gathered power from every corner of his body. He slowly raised his hands, palms facing forward, and a faint blue light flickered in his palms. At first, it was just a faint halo, but as the energy continued to gather, the light grew stronger and stronger.
He took a deep breath and thrust his palms forward with a sudden burst of energy, which surged towards the wall in front of him like a raging wave.
Under the impact of this force, the wall first developed spiderweb-like cracks, which spread rapidly, and stones began to fall off.
A huge gap was punched into the wall, and a mysterious space emerged after the dust settled.
There is also a stone platform here.
There seemed to be something on the platform.
But Lufa didn't pay much attention.
They seized the opportunity and rose to prominence.
Not a single bit of energy is wasted.
It flew up and kicked the stone platform.
The stone platform also could not escape the fate of shattering.
Beneath the shattered bricks, a silver egg appeared.
"really."
Lufa revealed an expression of complete control.
I walked over and took the egg in my hand.
Despite having mentally prepared himself countless times, he hesitated when the moment actually arrived.
"Have I really come this far?"
He touched his chest.
Ask yourself.
It was soft, a completely new experience...
We've gone off-topic...
But this also made Lufa hesitate even less.
This body, still burdened with its own weight, is certainly not enough.
Although it is very safe in this zero-gravity, high-magnetic prison, it can still be opened with a unique password.
After a simple spellcasting.
The light on the silver egg grew stronger and stronger. Suddenly, a small crack appeared on the eggshell, and a dazzling silver light shone out from the crack.
Immediately afterward, cracks spread rapidly like a spiderweb, and with a "crack," the eggshell shattered completely. A powerful energy wave surged from the egg, scattering the surrounding rubble and dust. In the light, the figure of a bald, muscular man gradually appeared.
He was meditating there.
He was tall and muscular, with bulging muscles that seemed to contain boundless power. His skin had a bronze sheen, exuding a wild aura.
He also had some tattoos on his face.
His eyes were tightly closed, as if he was still adjusting to the feeling of regaining his freedom. After a moment, he suddenly opened his eyes, and two beams of light shot out from them as he scanned his surroundings, finally fixing his gaze on Lu Fa.
Thousands of years of confinement had no effect on his physical or mental health.
He was puzzled for a moment.
He was somewhat bewildered as he looked at the woman in front of him.
But he quickly realized something; this seemed to be an acquaintance, and then he burst into laughter.
It was as if I had heard the funniest joke in the world.
Amidst laughter.
He stood up naturally.
It was just such a small action.
This already made Lu Fa's heart pound with fear.
The zero-gravity, high-magnetic-field prison doesn't just restrict a person's freedom. Under these extreme conditions, your muscles don't need to fight gravity, so their usage frequency is greatly reduced, and your muscles will atrophy. Here, you can't run or exercise; you can only watch your muscles shrink.
You will lose bone mass...
Your cardiovascular system will have problems...
Your sensory system and sense of balance will disappear...
Under the influence of a strong magnetic field, your nerves will be disturbed, and you may go insane due to the effects of the magnetic field and endless loneliness...
It was already inconceivable that Emperor Yan could survive for such a long time in such an extreme environment, but Lu Fa had always known this. But the fact that he could adapt instantly to a relatively normal environment after suddenly arriving at it was even more inconceivable.
Everything in the universe is affected by magnetic fields and gravity.
Emperor Yan's booming laughter echoed through the space, only gradually subsiding after a long while. He crossed his arms, tilted his head slightly, and looked at Lu Fa with a mocking and sarcastic gaze, saying, "Haha, Lu Fa, I wondered who had the ability to open this zero-gravity, high-magnetic prison. It turns out it was you. I just never expected that the once mighty commander of the Ares Army's armored forces would fall to such a state, possessing a woman's body. This appearance is truly utterly ridiculous."
Emperor Yan once imagined the scene of him breaking free from the prison.
They should have immediately sought out the treacherous French dog to take their lives.
But I never expected that Lu Fa would be so... so hilarious? Is there anything more hilarious than this?
"You once came to me boasting that you built an excellent armored force using our Flame Star's armor. Where is your arrogance when you were the chief armored force? Where is the armored force? I can't see it. Is it invisible? Or is your Ares' new technology just about posing as women to seduce the enemy? You, Lufa, have quite the eye for beauty. This one is quite pretty. Do you sometimes play with Pierre?"
"I originally thought your loyalty to him was because of the relationship between the two of you men... I never expected you to have this kind of fetish."
"Also, why are you so weak now? Is it because you feel your foundation is unstable that you've exhausted your strength and are starting to cultivate again? That's something only someone with great courage and perseverance can do."
Hearing Emperor Yan's sharp, sarcastic, and utterly humiliating words, Lu Fa's face instantly flushed red, and the veins on his forehead bulged like angry little snakes writhing beneath his skin. His wrists clenched into fists involuntarily, his knuckles turning white, trembling slightly with rage.
The body lines that were originally slightly softer due to the possession of Mislin were now stiffened by anger, the chest heaving, the breathing rapid and heavy, like a volcano about to erupt.
But for now, he can only endure it.
He didn't have the strength to unleash his full power... It was all for his dream!
He originally thought that the worst outcome would be if Emperor Yan killed him with one punch.
But now it seems that being beaten to death is just another matter.
The greatest pain is seeing your former mortal enemy in your current wretched state.
But we have to endure it.
"Brother Yan, I'm here to negotiate..."
Lufa gritted his teeth and spat out a few words. He was very unwilling, but he had no choice but to do it. This was his last straw.
People who don't know how to lose face will never succeed!
Emperor Yan was amused by Lu Fa once again.
"negotiation?"
