Purgatory Artist-Chapter 184: The Banshee of the Woods

Outside York City.

In the forest.

Liu Ping came out from the hole of an ancient tree.

The Devil Lord followed behind him.

Liu Ping looked in the direction of York City and said:

"If you didn't meet me, what would you have done when you arrived at York City?"

"... I would have just looked around. If there were no special circumstances, I would have gone back." The Devil Lord said.

"Aren't you an inspector?" Liu Ping asked.

"Trainee." The Devil Lord said.

"Why didn't you use the prisoner-finding watch?" Liu Ping asked.

The Devil Lord looked at him and said with a complicated expression: "What if something went wrong? In fact, if I was the only one who entered the cell, I would have died there. "

Liu Ping fell into deep thought after hearing that.

The Devil Lord's soul did not fluctuate at all. It was obviously telling the truth.

In the history of the Ceylon Kingdom, on the 10th of December in the year 37, York City was destroyed.

The Devil Lord must have appeared at that time, but he probably did not use the watch and did not enter the cell.

And this time, he activated the watch.

This was what was completely different from history!

"Go." Liu Ping said.

"Huh?" The Devil Lord was confused.

"Report what happened here to your superior. Your target was the prisoner. I'm glad you found your target." Liu Ping said.

"But my soul — —" The Devil Lord said.

"It belongs to me." Liu Ping said.

"Can't you just let me go? I'm just a small level 35 Devil. Why do you have to make things difficult for a small character like me? "The Devil Lord begged.

Liu Ping did not say anything.

In the void of space, the frame of the card gradually appeared, and a number appeared in the upper left corner of his hand:

[3.]

Level 3.

The Devil Lord was sweating profusely and muttered: "This is impossible."

What kind of sin did he commit to be enslaved by a level 3 knight?

Liu Ping patted him on the shoulder and comforted him: "Fortunately, you managed to keep your life, right?"

The Devil Lord did not say anything.

"Go, report the situation and do what you should have done. We'll meet again." Liu Ping said.

"You're letting me go?" The Devil Lord was surprised.

"Of course, but you can only tell what you found. Don't mention me. You can still handle such a small matter, right?" Liu Ping said.

"... Alright." The Devil Lord replied.

It turned into a bolt of lightning and quickly flew into the sky, disappearing from Liu Ping's sight.

Liu Ping leaped onto the tree and looked in the direction of York City.

This city.

It had been destroyed.

The evil god hiding in the dark didn't give him the chance to change history.

But after the historical event of the destruction of York City, he released the devil and let it report the information of the prisoners.

The Supervisory Board was said to be an organization that dealt with prisoners.

In that cell, he saw countless insects, and these insects were exactly the same as Qian Wuzhou.

They belonged to that evil god.

Therefore, let the Supervisory Council deal with the Evil Gods.

What would be the result of something that had never happened in history?

This was his probing and counterattack.

After all, from now on, no one knew what would happen next.

Liu Ping jumped down from the tree and walked deep into the forest.

The Supervisory Council was about to intervene in this matter, so he couldn't return to York City.

Then ...

Get out of there.

To other cities in the Kingdom of Ceylon.

Since he had the Sacred meal, he wouldn't starve to death, and he was a healer, no matter which city he was in, he could always find a job.

...

A day later.

On the road outside the forest.

Yana finished her last bite of Sacred meal, put down her cutlery and smiled: "Thank you for your hospitality."

"Are you done eating?" Liu Ping asked.

"Yeah, my strength is continuously recovering, and I don't have any curses on me, this feels great" Yana said.

Liu Ping snapped his fingers, and the table disappeared.

"Go back and sleep, come out when you've fully recovered." Liu Ping said.

"Alright." Yana replied, turned back into a card and flew back into his hand.

Liu Ping put the card away and moved again.

He walked along the road, not long after, he heard the sound of people.

A group of people had set up tents and were eating and resting.

Liu Ping was delighted.

Now that he had finally met someone, he could ask around where the nearest city was.

He walked over and politely said: "Excuse me, may I — —"

A guard shouted: "Scram, scram, little beggar!"

He was about to draw the Blade in his hand.

Liu Ping was surprised, and couldn't help but take a few steps back and look at himself.

After the battle in York City, the imprisonment room, the long tunnel, and walking in the forest for an entire day, the clothes on his body had long become tattered, and there was even a smell of dust and charred flesh on his body.

No wonder he thinks I'm a little beggar.

Liu Ping smiled and said: "Sir, I just want to ask, how do I get to the nearest city?"

The guard glanced at him and scoffed: "Walk along the road on the left, keep walking and you'll be able to go to a new place to beg."

Behind him, the people who were eating with him all looked over.

"Thank you." Liu Ping nodded to him and turned to leave.

After he left.

The people around him all laughed.

"Old Stone sure is mean."

"That's right, if that little beggar keeps walking along the road on the left — —"

"Haha, he's dead for sure!"

The guard called Stone smiled and said: "Everyone, I'm just trying to lighten the burden of the charity organizations."

On the other side.

After walking for a while, Liu Ping realized that the road ahead was getting more and more remote.

The road that was originally paved with stone slabs had turned into a muddy path.

Occasionally, spider webs would cross the branches on both sides of the path, blocking the road ahead.

"That's not right, if this is a path that people often walk on, why would there be so many spider webs?"

Liu Ping recalled the expression of that person when he spoke, thought for a while and understood the reason.

He sighed and felt a little bored.

"Forget it, let's go back to the main road and ask the others later."

After making up his mind, Liu Ping was about to turn back when the sound of flowing water came from the depths of the forest ahead.

Stream?

Liu Ping stopped in his tracks.

He still had a few sets of knight's uniforms to change into, so why not go to the stream ahead to take a bath and change into clean clothes?

This way, when he asked for directions again, the others wouldn't dare to lie to him easily.

He made up his mind.

Liu Ping pushed aside the branches on both sides of the path and strode forward.

Soon.

The path ahead suddenly opened up.

A small stream meandered here, forming a deep pool not far away.

— — Time to take a bath!

As Liu Ping walked, he took off his clothes.

This set of clothes had been smoked by the billowing black smoke in York City and had become pitch black. It was indeed not comfortable to wear.

He came to the pool and was about to take off his pants when he suddenly heard a faint singing voice.

There's someone!

And it's a woman!

Liu Ping hurriedly picked up the clothes on the ground and put them on, looking around.

Cliff.

Messy trees.

Rocky beach.

Stream.

There was no one around.

Where did this singing voice come from?

Liu Ping's gaze gradually fell on the pool.

He saw bubbles floating up from the depths of the pool. Then, a woman in an emerald green robe floated up.

She had two branches on her head that were full of flowers. Her eyes were light green as she looked at Liu Ping curiously.

A line of small words floated above her head.

[Forest Banshee]

[Those with this name guard the secrets of the world and possess a certain amount of power of causality]

Liu Ping's heart skipped a beat.

He actually met such an incredible existence here!

"Who are you?" The woman asked.

"I — — Hello, I'm Liu Ping, I'm just passing by." Liu Ping said.

"What are you doing here?" The woman asked again.

"Taking a bath ... But since you've already taken this place, I'll go somewhere else" Liu Ping said.

Just as he was about to leave, the woman asked: "Did you hear the singing just now?"

"Ah, I did, was it you who sang?" Liu Ping asked.

"Yes." the woman said.

"It's very nice!" Liu Ping praised.

"Is what you said true?" the woman hurriedly asked.

"I'm also a professional when it comes to musical instruments. You have to believe in my evaluation. Actually, my standards are very strict, I don't usually praise people." Liu Ping smiled and said.

The woman smiled, her expression as gentle as the spring breeze, softly saying: "Those who heard my singing only felt fear. It's been a long time since someone praised me so sincerely."

"Why are they afraid of you?" Liu Ping asked.

"Because when they hear my singing, they have to answer my question. If they can't, their souls will become nutrients for the forest." the woman said.

"What question is it?" Liu Ping was interested.

The woman was slightly startled, she sized him up and said: "Forget it, you can go. I'm in a good mood today, I won't ask you."

"Ah, it's fine, it's fine. If it's about fighting, I'm only 14 years old after all. I haven't matured and my combat power is limited. Of course, I won't dare to be rash – but if it's a question, I'm interested." Liu Ping said.

"Aren't you afraid you can't answer?" the woman smiled and said.

"If I can't answer, can't I go and find the answer?" Liu Ping asked.

The woman was startled again, she couldn't help but ask: "Why do you want to find the answer?"

"A good question is very rare. It can give us a lot of knowledge and secrets. I like such questions and their answers." Liu Ping said.

The woman swam around in the pool for a while, suddenly sighed and said: "You're still very young ... and you have such a heart. Forget it, you can go ..."

Liu Ping said: "I feel your kindness. How about this, give me a standard, when I reach that standard, you can tell me the question."

The woman, seeing his persistence, told him, "Okay, when you understand what the world is made of, you can come back to me. I'll ask you the question."

"Will I die if I answer wrong?"

"Yes"

"And if I answer right?"

"When you answer right, you'll know the answer."

"Alright, I actually know what this world is made of."

"What is it?"

"Sequence."

"Be more specific."

"Alright, I guess it's a set of cards."

Boom — — -

The water in the pool was like a reverse waterfall, shooting all the way to the sky.

The woman hovered in front of Liu Ping, her body exuding an eerie fluctuation as she asked: "My question is, after this world dies, how do you resurrect it?"

Liu Ping stayed silent for a bit, then praised: "What a good question ... I didn't think I'd hear this question here."

"You've heard this question before?"

"Yes, it's the last question in the Trio of the Death of the World."
