MTL - To Four Thousand Years Later-Chapter 8 solomon's ring
[Main task 1 shows wisdom, complete]
[You got: Fame 1, Solomon's Ring*1]
[You successfully detected the demon spell in the domain of the demon **** "Asmodeus": Shadow Distortion] [You successfully detected the demon spell in the domain of the demon **** "Baal": Awakening the Flame of the Sun] [Knowledge (demonology) has been improved . You can use known supernatural abilities in the fields of "Baal" and "Asmodeus"] It really is a demonic spell.
This guy Adonija is pretending. And sang the holy words while playing...
Squatting in front of the bonfire, facing the raging flames, Solomon snorted softly.
According to Benaiah, the priests of Israel had almost no magic skills to use since sixteen or seventeen years ago... Adonijah was able to perform such a great miracle by singing the holy words.
— There is no doubt that it can only be from the power of the devil.
…But, shouldn’t the real body of Baal be the supreme **** of the Semites?
Why didn't he die, but became a demon god?
Or is it that "the main **** left the god's seat" mentioned in the mission briefing just means that they are no longer gods, but have degenerated into entities?
In other words, if a **** falls, he will become a demon god...?
...then where is the God of Israel?
Solomon silently stretched out his hand towards the bonfire in front of him, feeling the temperature.
I saw a silver ring on Solomon's outstretched right middle finger. The middle of the ring is etched with a golden hexagram pattern, shining in the moonlight.
This is the task reward that Solomon received before. Legend has it that Solomon used it to control the treasures of the seventy-two demon gods
【Solomon's Seal Ring (Unique)】
【Wonderful Object/Holy Object】
[Use: Reach an alliance contract with Yizhu Demon God (0/4)]
[Wearing: Cannot be damaged by Demon God]
Solomon reached out and stroked the flames, and whispered softly: "And you can still get the loyalty of the marshal and the priests, even murdering another son of King David...?"
As his right hand suddenly approached the fire, the bonfire in front of Solomon instantly turned dark crimson.
The flame was not summoned by Solomon. It was the demon flame that was forced to remove its disguise after being approached by the ring. It looked exactly like the flame that burst from Adonijah's sword.
...Does getting close to this flame make people drowsy?
Because the demonic spell has no effect on him, Solomon can only deduce its original effect. If there is a drug in the broth, the person who drank the broth should also feel drowsy to some extent...
Solomon didn't have any special views on demonic spells. But Adonijah's behavior of turning innocent people into monsters just for the sake of temptation, and even killing them in front of everyone... In his opinion, it was too low.
It is not based on common interests, nor does it rely on controlling the psychology of the masses, nor does it rely on charisma. Just relying on violence and existing rights to rule brutally.
Perhaps in Adonijah's view, the only person who could communicate with him was Joab, who was the commander in chief. The only enemy is Solomon himself... As for the others, they are just inferior people who don't need to be concerned.
Solomon suddenly felt an unreasonable boredom.
- I can **** you. jpg
Solomon also knew that he was not a good person, and he couldn't be a good person-but he still felt uncomfortable when he realized that someone was killed by Adonijah because of him.
For the first time, he didn't want to kill Adonijah for survival—he wanted to kill Adonijah because of his own loathing.
"... Such a fool also wants to become the king of Israel? Can he still get the support of the military, political and religious circles?"
Solomon frowned tightly: "Or, he wants to kill me and has lost his mind? Does he know what it means to forcibly kill this guy in front of Joab and others?"
There was a strange sense of the absurd in him now. It's the wonderful feeling of being ready to fight PVP with a local tyrant with top-level equipment...
Now Solomon has a strong urge to grab the opponent's keyboard and shout "Get out, I'll teach you how to play".
"But that's fine."
Solomon pushed his right hand slightly forward, and the flame jumped away from Solomon's face, jumped two or three meters behind, and spread out in a vertical direction. It looks like he's huddled in a corner because he's afraid of Solomon.
"I probably understand the rules of your game, Adonijah."
Solomon whispered, eyes clear.
This is the age of slavery where there is no political art, but rule purely by tradition, blood, violence, religion, and primitive capital.
This is an age of ignorance and barbarism
"This is the age of God, not the age of man."
Solomon clenched his right fist.
The age of man... When will it come?
The dark flame in front of him seemed to be strangled by something, it stopped jumping instantly, and froze in place as if it had been frozen. A few seconds later, as Solomon slowly released his right hand, it also shattered with a snap, fell to the ground and turned back into an ordinary flame.
Solomon added more firewood, then closed his eyes and lowered his head in front of the fire to meditate.
This level of staying up late is nothing to him at all.
He used to be the product manager of a newly established game company. Every day I live the days of being sprayed by design, sprayed by tests, sprayed by the front end, pulled to various meetings, and staying up late at night to write product requirements (PRD). When I have free time, I will be pulled by various people to help with setting or testing something.
If it wasn't for their boss—the skinny Chinese black man who seemed to be a very kind and talkative guy, who would come to comfort him if he had nothing to do, and if he was paid bonuses every three days and pulled out to eat and chat, He has long since quit.
As a result, he had only slept for an hour or two at night for a week before the time travel. On the last day, he felt his heart start to fluster during the day—writing PRD until 3:30 in the morning, he finally felt his heart throbbing, and his fingertips felt numb when he touched the keyboard, as if he was wearing gloves.
So he hurriedly took a few quick-acting heart-relief pills, and went to the sofa to take a nap and catch his breath.
...and ended up here as soon as I woke up.
Although there is no notebook, no pen and paper at hand, fortunately, Solomon has plenty of time. He recalled everyone he saw from time travel to now, chewing every detail. At the same time, recharge your batteries while half asleep and half awake.
When he opened his eyes again, there was already a pale white edge on the eastern horizon.
It will be daylight in about an hour.
-it's time.
If we get them up at this time, it won't affect our journey.
Solomon looked around and noticed that no one had left the tent, so he inserted his ringless left hand directly into the dying fire without hesitation.
The next moment, the severe pain of burning skin came, and the veins burst out on his forehead instantly, and the unbearable pain made him almost cry out in pain.
His whole body was trembling violently, his teeth were trembling, the whites of his eyes were red, and his right hand was tightly clutching the soil on the ground. But his left hand has been pressed inside the fire.
Finally, just as his skin began to bear visible burn marks, he managed to pull his sore, almost immobile left arm out of the fire.
The part from the wrist forward was the source point, and the entire left arm was continuously radiated with severe pain. Some burnt arms were exposed in the cold air, so painful that Solomon could barely breathe.
But his will is extremely sober.
The ring on the **** of his right hand lit up, and the spell "Awakening the Flame of the Sun" used by Adonija was instantly used by Solomon.
Using flame as the casting material, the activated dark flame instantly stood up, and the two-meter-high flame demon roared and saluted the summoner Solomon.
Solomon couldn't bear it anymore, but wailed at the top of his voice.
"Help—"
In less than three seconds, Binaya rushed out of the tent.
He saw Solomon with his left hand scorched and sweating profusely, and the roaring fiery figure baring his teeth and claws in front of Solomon, and roared without hesitation: "Enemy attack—"
Then, he pulled out his saber from his waist, and charged towards the flame figure without hesitation.
The fiery figure, which has not received the order, looked around blankly. When it saw Benaya rushing towards Solomon with a sword, it roared and rushed forward with only simple intelligence.
At this time, the awakened guards and generals rushed out one after another and gathered in the middle of the camp.
Seeing the ferocious fight between Binaya and the flame figure, it will be difficult for them to charge up for a while. On the contrary, a few smart people rushed towards the lake not far away with the utensils, and a clever priest looked at the injured Solomon, and trotted towards the carriage where Noam and Abigail were resting without hesitation. go.
At this time, Adonija, who looked sleepy, rushed out of the tent with messy hair holding the sword.
In order to restore the magic power of summoning the demon flame last night, he didn't sleep until the middle of the night... Now he has only slept for less than three hours, and he was attacked one after another by "enemy attacks", "be careful", "get water" and the like outside The shouts woke me up.
Looking up, Adonija looked dazed at the group of flame demons fighting bravely with the warrior Benayah in the middle of the camp, and Solomon whose left hand was scorched and fell to the ground.
...wait, I didn't let it attack Solomon did I?
