I'm Really Not the Lord of the Abyss - Chapter 55
Not only that, after the Star Network detected traces of Sikes visiting Lu Mi’s information, he was instantly locked by countless network monitors.
[Warning!]
The screen was full of scarlet fonts, as if this was not an ordinary extraordinary interface, but an SSS-level secret.
Sikes stared at the screen with a bewildered face.
At this moment, Lu Mi had already reached the second floor of the manor, right at the door of his own room, he saw the president of the K8 branch.
“Are you leaving?” The president seemed to have heard their conversation just now.
This man was still the lazy look when they first met, and the prosthetic leg on his left leg made him a little inconvenient to move.
Lu Mi nodded, “President, why are you here?” He rarely saw the other party walk out of the office.
“Look at what you said, one of the few subordinates is about to resign, and I’m not allowed to send it?”
“…” Ah, generally speaking, it’s okay, but you usually either disappear out of thin air, or you just don’t bother to move.
“Cough,” the president coughed awkwardly, then pressed on the scanning prosthetic eye on the left, that eye looked up slightly, as if it had passed through the ceiling and reached the outside world.
The president’s voice was slightly solemn, “Moreover, the power in the sky…..I can’t ignore it…”
Lu Mi paused, “I will take them away in a while.”
“Ah, no, I didn’t mean to urge you…” The president waved his hands repeatedly, and then suddenly changed his words, “No, it’s better to leave early. In fact, I just sent away a communication from the headquarters–although the headquarters intends to block the news, it doesn’t reveal anything, they were anxious and worried to ask if you had an attitude of wanting to return…”
He laughed happily at this point, looking at Lu Mi with piercing eyes, “It seems that you have done something remarkable!”
Lu Mi did not comment, and the president continued, “Although you may not be interested, but the presidents of various branches have just received a notice that the headquarters will soon be drastically rectified, and there are many high-level penalties, it is said that the current three candidates for the president are also among them, the Golden Clock is all withdrawn and waiting for investigation——”
“It is estimated that for a long time in the future, the entire extraordinary world will be in great turmoil.”
“Thank you.” Lu Mi knew that as the president of the K8 branch, the other party would inevitably be under pressure from the headquarters because of him.
This pressure must be malicious, and it would definitely not be easy.
“The one who should say thank you is me.” The president waved his hand.
Ever since he was exiled here, to put it bluntly, he had given up on himself long ago. He never expected that in his lifetime, he would see such a spectacle–the towering tree known as the “headquarters” was actually uprooted one day!
Although it was inevitable to suffer some injuries now, the rotten branches and leaves finally got the chance to be pruned, and it would be better in the future!
The president made way behind him, “If there is anything you want to take away or need help with, just say it. At least today, I can assure you that those messy people can’t get here.”
Lu Mi smiled and opened the door by himself, “I have sorted out some information in the file room, if you need it, just take it out.”
President: “Can I?” Although I don’t know what those materials are, they are definitely not ordinary things.
“Well,” Lu Mi walked into the room without looking back, “It’s just a matter of course.”
While speaking, Lu Mi had already come to the mirror in the bedroom. He paused for a while and looked back.
The president was leaning against the door, leisurely watching his movements. Seeing him look over, he even blinked, “Do you need me to avoid it?”
Lu Mi: “…No need.”
The ghostly thirst for knowledge and extreme curiosity were probably the common problems of all extraordinaries.
Forget it, since the headquarters already knows, there is no need to deliberately conceal it in his own home.
So, the next second, the president standing at the door suddenly widened his eyes.
It’s not that I didn’t prepare mentally. In fact, from just now, the president had made various assumptions about the identity and power of the silver-eyed youth, but the facts prove that the truth was always more surprising.
“King.” The first one to step out of the mirror had a pair of thin wings shining like diamonds. He nodded to the youth, and then a pair of emotionless cold eyes quickly locked the stranger here.
Just one glance, the top-level pressure from the spiritual level made the president’s heart cool by half.
“Jizhou,” with Lu Mi’s call, the cold killing intent faded away like a tide, Lu Mi said, “He is not an enemy.”
So the powerful strongest insect race immediately obeyed, he was like the most loyal guard in front of the throne, anyone other than the silver-eyed youth could not be reflected in those eyes.
After that, the insect army staying in the Mirror World walked out one by one, and the bedroom soon couldn’t accommodate it.
Lu Mi directly raised his hand to open the floor-to-ceiling windows of the bedroom, and the gale rushed in through the window, blowing the light curtains flying.
“Go to the Ark in the sky.” Their king issued such an order.
Although they didn’t know what the Ark was, no one questioned it. One by one, the insect race immediately spread their wings and rushed into the sky like a stream of light.
The president standing at the door, his arms that were originally wrapped around him had unconsciously let go.
“I’m sorry, I arbitrarily made the branch our station.” Lu Mi thought he minded this.
But the president didn’t think about anything at all, he blankly opened his mouth, “Ah…no, it’s okay…” He paused for a while, and suddenly asked again, “Is the K8 branch already famous in the abyss?”
Lu Mi didn’t say that he didn’t realize it at all–there have been so many high-level abyss existences hidden in the K8 branch all the time! ??
No, compared to the fact that Lu Mi was called “king” by these existences, it doesn’t seem so unacceptable?
–What a ghost! !!
After the insect army, the mirror demon who came late was holding the red dragon’s claws in one hand, and his forehead appeared slightly messy.
“You…are back…Keir has been very irritable recently.” Jiabo’s current state did not allow him to approach the silver-eyed youth immediately.
Lu Mi saw the white-haired demon grabbing the red dragon’s claws with one hand.
The young dragon shrank to the size of a ball of fur, but that claw swelled to the huge size of the real body. In addition to this, the red dragon’s body was still growing–it seemed that it was about to return to its original size immediately.
Before rushing to see Lu Mi, the demon had already suppressed the red dragon in the Mirror World, but it also delayed some time.
“Wu——wu——” Until now, the red dragon was still making a low whimper.
Lu Mi quickly checked the state of the red dragon, “Keir?”
It was unknown if his call worked, the red dragon’s sharp vertical pupils slightly contracted, and then suddenly opened his mouth and sprayed a dragon flame towards the window.
“Boom!”
The red dragon violently broke free from the demon’s shackles and directly drilled out of the big hole.
Its body quickly enlarged in mid-air, and the wings that blinked open covered the entire sky of the manor, covered in the crimson dragon scales.
Looking at the red dragon who seemed to be unable to hear other people’s words, Lu Mi frowned slightly, “Keir’s state is indeed a bit strange.”
The body of the giant dragon was incomparable, and if this continued, the movement would be too loud.
Lu Mi immediately stopped lingering, he stretched out his hand to the demon who was staring at him, “Let’s go, Jiabo.”
With a slight pause, Jiabo unhesitatingly held that hand.
The two directly flew into the sky and fell on the back of the red dragon from the window.
Lu Mi touched the shaking spine of the red dragon and comforted softly, “Keir, go to the city in the sky, you can hear my voice, right?” He added some power of the fairy species.
“Wu——” The red dragon’s eyes were clear for a moment, and he responded somewhat aggrievedly.
“Good boy.” Lu Mi stroked its scales, “Fly to a higher place.”
In the manor’s upstairs, Sikes and Donald rushed in together.
Donald: “What happened, I heard a loud noise——”
The rest of the words were drowned in his stunned expression.
It was unknown why the wall broke a big hole, the shattered bricks still remained the flames that had been extinguished, and there came waves of heart-pounding energy.
The rolling smoke dissipated little by little with the surging wind.
The president took a deep breath, stepped forward to pick up the shattered window frame, “Really, it’s so hasty…”
“President, why are you here? Where is Lu Mi?” Donald finally came back to his senses and asked hurriedly.
The president did not answer him, “What are you holding in your hand?”
“Ah, oh, it’s a camera. There are still a few photos that can be developed. I want to leave a copy for Lu Mi.”
Donald, whose attention was diverted in an instant, made the two shake their heads.
“…Has he already left?” Sikes walked to the president, asked with a strange tone and a complicated expression.
The president looked at him strangely, “You know?”
“Only the headquarters has the authority to prohibit my access.” Sikes thought of the webpage filled with “prohibited”, and suddenly sighed, “And, just now at the window of the first floor corridor——”
He remembered that moment then his pupils dilated and he was stunned.
“How can you not see such a red color that spreads across the sky… except for that fool.”
Donald, who was named “fool” by Sikes, was staring motionlessly at the photo that was not easy to develop in his hand.
In the photo, it was not the simple single photo he thought–
The golden deity was surrounded by stars.
The deity stood in the universe of stars, his palm held the stars, and the stars in the distance were falling towards him.
It’s not like a photo, it’s more like the first scene in the creation story in the cathedral.
It seemed that in the next scene, the planet at the fingertips would breed endless life, and the deity who was looking down would really look up.
“Every person’s soul is a star.” For some reason, Donald suddenly thought of the old man who sold him the camera. He was just an ordinary and even down-and-out merchant, but only a pair of eyes, shining brightly, left a deep impression on him.
The man said, [If you are lucky, you can see the appearance of the world’s souls from the photos, some are weak, some are shining.]
“Everyone…is a star…” Donald murmured, suddenly clenched the photo in his hand, and held the blue steel that was given to him around his neck.
If that was the case, the existence surrounded by stars must be devoutly worshipped by countless followers.
This faith, even unconsciously, elevated his soul, so in this photo–
Others are stars, but you, are the sun.
Suddenly, Sikes sighed in his ear, “The world outside the world, he has walked ahead.”
When all of them were still stuck in their vision, the story beyond their imagination had already happened around them.
Above the sky, the red dragon that kept rising flew across the blue sky.
On this day, in this small and remote sector, everyone heard a long dragon roar.
For a sector that could be talked about for a long time, it quickly became a new legend in the town.
…….
“You’re back.” The demons waiting on the Ark came face to face.
“How did you get hurt?” Lu Mi looked strangely at their large and small wounds.
“We haven’t seen each other for a long time, we spared.”
“It seems that the battle was fierce.” Lu Mi raised his eyebrows slightly.
Not to mention, even the demon’s self-healing ability did not stop the bleeding from the wound, which showed that everyone was really serious.
Seo opened his mouth and licked the remaining blood in his lips, “It’s still not enough.”
Looking at his satisfied look, Lu Mi knew that this guy was really happy.
Lu Mi looked at the red dragon who had calmed down a bit, and said to everyone, “So next, go to the gate of Tartarus, we will return to the abyss.”
Everyone obviously waited for this sentence for a long time.
“That’s right, I also look forward to seeing the land you conquered.” Alonfus’s eyes were bright.
“Where to go first?” A demon asked.
Jizhou, under the crazy hint of many Zerg races, stepped forward to ask, “King, you have not been to our Western Area.”
“I have heard that the Western Area is desolate and waiting to be revived. It is better to return to the Southern Area, at least there are remnants of civilization.” Shi Guang whispered softly.
Lu Mi, who was watched by everyone, quickly made a decision, “Go to the Northern Area.”
He stroked the depressed Keir, “Now the Northern Area is the safest and most familiar, let’s go there first to rest, and then…”
“And then?” Everyone was excited.
“Keir said that it felt a dangerous breath coming from the east.”
“Is this the reason why it has been restless?” Jiabo knew that Lu Mi could “hear” the voice of the red dragon, “Is it related to the dragon race?”
Only related to the dragon race, would it be noticed by the young dragon alone, and would not have an influence on these demons.
“But, hasn’t the dragon race been extinct for a long time?”
“Who knows…”
