Chapter 171: The Game of Reality and Illusion

Chapter 167 – The Game of Reality and Illusion
“Let me see, a young man of great talent, noble and mysterious, with an ancient and powerful bloodline, what an enviable life.” The devil’s voice wasn’t hoarse, nor did it seem exorbitant, instead, it gave off a gentle and gentlemanly feeling.

This was not surprising, as it was a must for the devil to say what he saw and what he said.

A low, seductive voice was preferred when faced with a gambler whose desires were hard to fill.

When faced with a robber with malicious intent, a high, hoarse voice will teach them to be in awe.

Facing aristocrats who are good at hiding their hearts, a gentle voice is more likely to gain recognition.

Owen’s appearance and demeanor and temperament are undoubtedly in line with the aristocrats, so the devil shows his elegant side.

Unfortunately, although it was the first time he dealt with the devil, Owen knew that he couldn’t trust any of the devil’s words, even after signing the devil’s contract, because the devil’s nature was greed and evil, a combination of sin and evil, and abiding by the contract was only because of the limitations of the laws of hell.

Believe in the devil? Befriend the devil? You’ll know what regret is when your soul falls into the devil’s hands, so Owen didn’t have the intention of opening his mouth to respond, but instead, he let the warm baby start scanning the black magic book.

“Golem? Devil statues? What a strange creation, just as mysterious as you.” The devil tried to continue to raise the conversation, as the look in Owen’s eyes reminded the devil of certain unpleasant memories.

Owen still didn’t have much of a reaction to the Devil’s words, as he was synchronizing what the Warmaster had scanned.

It was interesting, witches, wizards, mages, alchemists, a book of black magic contained so many things, if it wasn’t for Owen’s equally many professions, I’m afraid that he would easily fall into a dead end and not be able to get out.

Owen stretched out his hand and used his spiritual power to construct a rune on his fingertips, then slowly pressed it towards the black magic book.

The face of the devil made of water mist on the black magic book shook for a moment, as the devil knew that he was in big trouble, as the person in front of him was the kind that devils hated the most, and could see that the rune was used to close the sealing loophole on the black magic book.

As long as this rune was filled, then it would be equivalent to the other party controlling the switch of the seal, and the devil would have to depend on the other party’s willingness to open a hole if he wanted to take a breath.

The devil is very patient is not false, but before being sealed for hundreds of years, just had the hope of getting out of the trap and was interrupted, encountered or the most unwanted kind of people, even the devil can not help but want to lift the table.

Because the devil was too weak now, once this part of the origin went wrong, nine times out of ten, the essence in hell would fall in rank and would lose its only chance, especially the latter, which made the devil make a risky decision.

“Human, let’s play a fair game.” The devil suddenly spoke the moment Owen’s finger had just fallen, then without waiting for Owen to react, a dreamlike point of light touched his finger.

Owen’s consciousness instantly broke away from the bondage of his physical body, and entered a world full of colorful bubbles, where he experienced the feeling of flying freely for the first time, which was more refreshing than standing on the terrace of the castle naked with only a nightgown for his morning exercise, but he quickly reacted, and the original consciousness that was letting go of itself transformed into a humanoid form in a twinkling of an eye, which was exactly the same as his physical body.

In fact just now Owen was faced with two choices, one was the image of Yan Xu in his last life, and the other was the image of Owen in this life, in the end he chose the current life, because there are many women in this life, and there will be more in the future, so it’s not hard to choose isn’t it.

Owen had just coalesced his form when the scene around him changed to the castle he was most familiar with, and across from him was a scene of hell.

If you look further away, you can find that this is a strange space, except for the castle and hell is solid, the rest of the place is full of twisted space made up of colorful bubbles and ribbons, just like chaos.

“This is the devil’s game?” Owen’s face said with some gravity, obviously he had underestimated the devil’s tactics.

But Owen’s heart wasn’t very panicked, because even if he was only conscious, he could still clearly feel the existence of the system, and with the system dad there, he was fearless. However, as the rules of that space were injected into Owen’s consciousness, he realized that it was not the devil’s ability, but the other party was lucky enough, or he was lucky enough.

This space wasn’t real, as it was made of fragments of the authority of the God of Reality and Illusion.

A long time ago the Devil obtained this fragment, but the Devil who was only a part of the origin could not bring it back to hell at all, and could only expect to absorb it in the material realm, by which to get rid of the bondage of hell and become an independent god, and for this reason, he was not hesitant to be sealed by a powerful sorceress into a book of black magic.

But the devil underestimated the god of reality and illusion, even if it is only a small fragment of authority, its essence is still far above the devil’s origin, the devil’s origin is like a water mist attached to a crystal shard, want to absorb the crystal, this is not a miracle, but a miracle.

But regret is also too late, the devil also have been interests blinded, also have to ride the tiger difficult time.

But the devil’s opportunity came, as long as the body and soul of Owen were seized, this part of the origin would be able to get rid of the bondage of the hell essence, and obtain the foundation to exist alone in the material world.

With the knowledge that the devil has mastered, in the future, it may not be impossible to step on the road to becoming a god, and then absorb the fragments of authority, one step to become a god is not a dream, so this time the game, the devil is bound to win.

After reading the rules of the space, Owen did not panic, because this is not the devil’s means, in fact, the devil, like him, are just players in this space, the only advantage of the other side is to play longer, and know the rules better, but this does not mean that the devil will definitely be able to win.

It was like two people playing a game machine together, the game machine was taken out by the other person, can you say that the other person won without playing?

Obviously you can’t, even if the other person takes out the game console, the winner has to be decided through a fair game.

Interestingly enough, the devil really put down money, exchanging his origin and true name for Owen’s body and soul.

This is not that the devil lost his wits, but the devil did not even expect the quality of Owen’s bloodline and soul to be so high, not to take out all, the power shard simply does not recognize it, without recognition the game can not start, the helpless devil can only gamble everything like the devil who lost his wits.

Owen withdrew his emanating thoughts and concentrated on preparing for the game.

The game was simple and complex at the same time.

The authority of the God of Reality and Illusion broke the boundaries between the real and the unreal, at least in this space, so both sides needed to compose reality out of fantasy.

Starting with the simplest method, fantasy constructs a sword which is real in this world and can be used to kill the other side for victory.

But if the other side constructs a musket, the victory belongs to the other side.

If you take it a step further and build a Cyclops that follows orders, it’s useless to build a cannon, let alone a musket.

So the core test of this game is fantasy and construction, there must be enough fantasy, but also to fully understand your fantasy out of the creation, so come up Owen unconsciously constructed the castle, and the devil constructed the hell, because this is the two sides are most familiar with the place.
