I'm Really Not the Lord of the Abyss - Chapter 43

“He is…”

The words trembled crazily, echoing on everyone’s lips, but they couldn’t utter them.

Their pupils trembled, hesitating, even doubting whether the person enveloped in the golden glow before them was still the same person as before.

Was it the remnants of a god descending through him?

Or was it the originally sleeping god finally awakening?

Those silver eyes suddenly cast a gentle glance.

The clear eyes were neither sad nor happy, but they made the giants present unconsciously take a step back.

When they reacted, the giants’ faces showed a blush of shame due to their own retreat, but no one dared to speak at this time.

Kano raised his weapon and stood guard on the side, but he had already seen that the fighting spirit of these giants had been halved, so most of his attention was turned to the figure by the river.

In the crowd, the boy with the ghost mask slightly opened his mouth, the slightly rapid breath was all stifled behind the mask making him a little breathless, “…Is that legend true? What exactly is He…”

No one moved at this time, they seemed to be frozen, every move was completely led by the golden color suspended in the air, only the sound of the heart was madly jumping in the ear.

At the same time, inside the shipyard.

The enslaved fairy species and some other races were being held in the big ship.

This giant ship, apart from being unable to cross the River of Death, had all other functions. These slaves and shipbuilders were almost locked in the cargo hold of the big ship except for the time they were working.

The sealed doors and windows day after day eroded their will, they had long lost track of time.

“This is the place…!” Suddenly, a strange voice came, and then a group of people rushed into the cabin where they were locked.

The dazed mutants looked up, looking at the people who started to pry open their chains, and asked slowly, “…Who are you?”

“We are the resistance against the rule of the Asura species!” The man answered quickly, but frowned because he couldn’t open the lock.

The locked mutants just numbly watched their movements, like a pool of silent dead water, in this world without daylight they had long lost hope.

“Where is Ghost Face?” The man turned around and asked the others, “The message he sent back, his own people are not here?”

“Never mind him for now! This time it was too smooth to get up, where are those Asura species…” The people next to him were obviously uneasy about this abnormal situation and urged repeatedly.

At this time, a surprised exclamation suddenly came from one side: “Hey–you guys look!!”

That companion was clinging to a small crack in the cabin, not knowing what he had seen, his voice trembling slightly, his body shaking more and more violently.

Everyone looked at each other, and the first thing that came to mind was a bad premonition. Could it be that they saw the Asura species army gathering outside, this operation might be a trap?

Their hearts sank abruptly, and they quickly prepared for the worst. But when the first person gradually walked away from the cabin wall, his hand just touched the crack in the wall, and he was suddenly blinded by the light overflowing from the crack.

That was…!

–On the banks of the River of Death, people saw Lu Mi suddenly raise his hand.

The light ring worn on his wrist gently swayed out a bell-like ethereal sound, instantly dominating all their senses, and everyone stared intently at the direction of that hand.

The next second, the little golden light that originally gathered around him suddenly leaped out with a touch of his fingertips.

Each point of golden light dragged a long tail of light, and for a moment it seemed like the grandest meteor shower since the creation of the world, breaking through the mist of the River of Death.

“That direction is…not good!” At this time, the giants finally reacted.

They ran futilely on the ground with their legs, like the giants chasing the sun in the legend, trying to retain that radiant sun.

The entire earth was shaking violently because of the running of the giants, and everyone looked at their figures returning to the shipyard, and for some reason, a strange pity rose in their hearts.

They knew that the best method now was to attack Lu Mi as the source, maybe they could break the opponent–but they avoided it. Did they not think about it, or did they deliberately not want to think?

What are you wavering about? What are you hesitating about? What are you avoiding?

In the end, the giants couldn’t catch up with the speed of light at all, they could only watch as the light wrapped up the giant ship, and then lifted it up.

The rising giant ship flew over the heads of the giants and fell straight in front of Lu Mi.

Boom–

The sound of the giant ship falling into the port river, it seemed to be the sound of dust settling.

Numerous crisp cracking sounds came from the ship, and the chains that locked the people in the ship were all broken by the golden light attached to them.

The doors of the large ship opened one by one, and the wild wind howled in, flowing the atmosphere of the entire ship.

Under the gaze of Lu Mi and others, after a while, the staggering figures of those shipbuilders walked out one by one.

These people seemed to be underground creatures that hadn’t seen light for a long time, they tried to stick their heads out of the hole several times, before finally plucking up the courage to walk out.

Then, they saw Lu Mi who was gently looking at them.

Those dust-free silver eyes possessed a noble divinity, if you fear to look up, it appears cold and majestic. If you are grateful and fearful, it is as loving and peaceful as the creator of all things at the beginning.

So, the resistance soldiers who hesitated to follow them out, saw these numb shipbuilders suddenly move–like puppets breaking free from the line, for the first time moving their stiff faces on their own.

“You can’t…” The Asura species giants finally couldn’t sit still, this ship and these people were the result of their struggle in the Southern Area for decades.

But that immovable golden god just said lightly, “I can.”

The most irritable green-horned giant suddenly fell silent, and then the hand holding the weapon violently bulged with blue veins.

“What are you doing!?” The other giant pressed his hand that wanted to raise the weapon, “We are not his opponent now!”

As if afraid of being heard, the giants who never concealed their volume for the first time lowered their voices, and every muscle was secretly exerting force.

The green-horned giant’s chest was heaving violently, but that was not entirely due to anger, at that time it also contained a tremor of confrontation with some inexplicable awe, “If we do nothing now, what prestige and pride will our Asura species have in the Southern Area from now on!!”

The black-horned giant who had a vague thought in his mind, pulled his lips.

–Confronting a powerful, seemingly living legend, courage alone is not enough.

The black-horned giant didn’t know what to do for the first time, he almost desperately called their king in his heart.

Yes, only the king of the Asura species can guide them in this situation, only he can stabilize the situation…..it’s definitely not because he wants to escape!

The people on the giant ship didn’t know what had happened, but they knew–the person who seemed to have saved them refuted the words of the Asura species, and the Asura species did not fight back.

A sense of security! This person gave them the most lacking sense of security, so at least now that this person is present, they can cry out loud, right?

“West Law! East Law…” Left Law and Right Law saw the fairy species in the corner of the crowd on the giant ship, they called the names of familiar people, and their tearful eyes pounced on them and hugged them together.

“It’s great, Lu Mi really saved you!!”

That seemed to be a signal, and suddenly the entire ship was filled with cathartic crying.

Some slightly calm shipbuilders knelt on the ground in fear and fear, confessing their uncontrollable tears and noise to their savior, fearing that the golden light would be discarded because of disgust.

Lu Mi just quietly took this scene into his eyes, after a few seconds, his eyes moved slightly, and he suddenly looked up at a certain direction in the distance.

Only after him, the rest of the Asura species slowly raised their heads.

“This aura is!” The Asura species showed an extremely terrified expression on their faces, even stuttering, “It is…the King is here!!”

The black-horned giant’s face stiffened, feeling that his mouth was probably blessed, just after he had muttered about his lord, he really came, he immediately showed an extremely contradictory and tangled expression, for a moment he couldn’t tell whether the arrival of their king was good or bad.

The aura of death in the air suddenly became dense, even reaching a degree similar to overcast clouds.

Lu Mi didn’t know if the Asura species were more powerful the bigger they were, but the Asura King who appeared in front of him was obviously the largest giant he had ever seen–

The other party was like a motionless mountain, his whole body was enveloped in a mass of pitch-black death aura, completely unable to see his face.

Everyone was scared out of their wits by this sudden change, they seemed to really regard Lu Mi as a god, constantly calling out his existence and praying for protection.

What was amazing was that even those cries for help that only existed in the bottom of their hearts, Lu Mi could hear…was this also the power of the fairy species?

Among these many cries, there was one that was particularly deafening, like a corroded bell that had been ringing for thousands of years, piercingly mocking.

–“Why didn’t you come! Why didn’t you come!!”

That voice was mournful and crazily chaotic, clearly knocking on the bottom of Lu Mi’s heart, he followed this heart sound to look at its owner.

–It was the Asura King.

At this time, the Asura King’s huge figure was stepping on the top of the royal city buildings all the way, like a moving disaster, leaping from far and near in the collapsed rubble.

Finally, He arrived at the shipyard area, and instantly noticed the most obvious golden figure in mid-air.

“…!”

In that instant, the pupils hidden behind the death aura suddenly contracted and then dilated. He suddenly leaped up high, and with a boom, he landed directly in front of Lu Mi.

The earth was suddenly filled with flying dust.

That death aura that was as sticky as bone marrow had already reached the point where even the black-horned giant and other Asura species could not approach, but Lu Mi, who was very close to the other party, was not affected at all.

Even when those death auras tried to invade the golden figure, they were directly purified by the light points gathered around him.

“King…” The black-horned giant took a difficult step forward, resisting the death aura that was stinging his flesh and blood, just about to say something, but was directly interrupted.

At this time, the Asura King could no longer hear any other voices, he stared straight at the scene of the death aura being purified, “Having this power… it really is you, the Yindu God!!”

The words of the Asura King obviously weighed more than anyone else, even those shipbuilders who had been imprisoned to the point of mental chaos, also came to their senses at this time.

“The one who saved us…is a god?”

“Is that really the Yindu God?” The resistance army and the ghost-faced demon asked incredulously, “The one in the legend? I always thought it was just a legend!”

Ghost face moved his lips, finally shook his head, “I’m not sure, but the Asura King seems to…” He looked at the golden figure with some worry and slightly frowned, “Very persistent.”

“That’s for sure!” Someone in the resistance army took a deep breath, “Crossing the River of Death is the lifelong wish of the Asura King, knowing that there is a god who can guide, what does he want the fairy species for!?”

But ghost face’s eyebrows were even more tightly locked. No, it’s definitely not just that!

“I have always believed in your existence, always believed in… day after day for a hundred years, calling you…”

Just as everyone was still immersed in the shock of the fact that there really was a god, the Asura King’s deep voice had already come.

The weight and deep emotion contained in that voice almost made them think that the other party had fallen into madness.

“But why didn’t you respond to me, a hundred times, a thousand times, ten thousand times! I am clearly the person in this world who believes in you the most devoutly, why did you abandon your most loyal believer!”

“Why did you come, could it be that the cries of these ants are more pitiful to you!!”

Lu Mi just quietly looked at the increasingly agitated Asura King, and slowly said, “I am not the person you are talking about.”

“…”

The Asura King’s voice suddenly stopped, he suddenly stared at Lu Mi, “No, you are.”

The tall giant suddenly raised his palm and pressed it towards Lu Mi, but how could Lu Mi be hit by him.

But the others were terrified to look at that shining golden wheel, like creatures in the dark seeing the sun for the first time, even every bit of afterglow was cherished a thousand times.

–No, don’t hurt him!

–Don’t take away our light!!

This was the roar that most people couldn’t say in time.

The fanaticism and faint madness on their faces made the other Asura species look sideways, even a fleeting chill of illusion.

“These ants…” The Asura species subconsciously widened their eyes.

But at this moment, Lu Mi, who had avoided the Asura King’s attack, had already flown above the River of Death.

The light wings behind him spread out infinitely to both sides, as if the dawn of the sky suddenly appeared in the eternal night of chaos, the pieces of death aura were washed away, revealing the turbulent river that few people could really see clearly in the River of Death.

At the same time, the Asura King’s empty strike hit the river, suddenly opening a waterway.

Woo–woo–

It was the sound of the ship’s whistle.

Lu Mi couldn’t help but look sideways, and found that a ship had appeared on the River of Death.

That unseen ship was swaying in the surging river–

“Save us!”

“Help!!”

Lu Mi heard the cries for help coming from the ship, and at the same time, several human figures ran out on the deck.

“God, please save us from here…!” These people desperately grabbed the ship’s pole, showing a desperate color.

A human ship?

Lu Mi was surprised. How could it appear here?

He was about to move, the crowd on the banks of the River of Death saw his movement and suddenly became agitated, and at the same time, the ghost-faced boy rushed out and quickly said, “Don’t go, those are illusions of the River of Death, they are like mirages that don’t exist!”

These abyss creatures who have lived in the Southern Area for many years obviously know this very well.

Sometimes illusions would even turn out a large continent, tempting ignorant mutants to wade into the River of Death, and then those mutants never came back.

On the contrary, the Asura King who should have taken advantage of the situation to chase after him paused when he saw that ship, and suddenly widened his eyes, “That is…”

But Lu Mi did not hesitate, because he really heard the heart sounds, that could not be an illusion.

So the golden god suddenly turned around and turned to the depths of the turbulent river, and the people standing on the shore were instantly dumbfounded, watching his figure nervously.

–At this moment, they even didn’t know who to pray to. If ordinary fools pray to God to protect themselves, then if they want to protect their gods, who should they pray to to keep him safe?

Then, everyone saw an incredible scene–that golden figure merged into the illusion.

As everyone knows, illusions are non-existent illusions, so they have no real sense and cannot be touched, but at this moment, the golden god clearly stirred the ship’s side, and even interacted with the people on the ship.

“Where are you from?”

The golden god descended from the sky and landed in front of the humans on the ship.

The group of humans’ tearful and embarrassed appearance froze, and the mutants on the shore could even clearly see their astonishment and shock.
