Chapter 697: Escape

A strong black light shrouded the desert, turning the entire area into darkness.

A person appeared in the middle of the darkness.

He was wearing a black robe full of runes, and a black hat with the brim pulled low, covering his face.

In the entire area, only the location where the Scorpion Demon Queen is located has not yet been swallowed by darkness.

The person looked around, and his attention was focused on the Scorpion Demon Queen.

"What about people?" he asked.

The Scorpion Queen covered her mouth with her hand, yawned and said, "Are you asking me?"

"Nonsense, of course I'm asking you." The man said angrily.

The Scorpion Demon Queen tilted her head, thought for a while before saying, "Well, I was still here just now, and now I don't know where to go."

"Do you dare to play tricks on me?"

"I'm telling the truth."

"Okay, okay, okay, I'll talk about you after I find that card."

The man stamped his foot and was about to leave.

Suddenly, his expression changed, and he waved out seven or eight cards.

Layers of light and shadow enveloped him, forming a dark wall, several solid large shields, a giant guard in armor, and a translucent dark defense cover.

--boom!

A streak of light pierced towards him with lightning speed.

In front of this streamer, the wall collapsed, all the shields were shattered, and the giant guard was pierced through. Only the last translucent defensive cover could withstand the streamer.

The man in black was blasted tens of meters away in one fell swoop.

He squatted on the ground in embarrassment, looking up at the defensive cover.

A sharp tail stabbed at the defensive cover and sank deeply.

It seemed that the tail thorn could pierce through the defensive cover only by a tiny bit.

"Scorpion Emperor, you took that card? Do you want to start a full-scale war?"

The man's expression became solemn, he took out a card from the void, and showed it to the Scorpion Queen.

There was nothing else on that card but a horn.

war horn.

The Scorpion Queen slowly withdrew her tail thorn, and said in a cold tone: "It doesn't matter if you call anyone. Anyone who reproduces the scene just now will think that I am defending my majesty."

"After grabbing that card, let's talk about my business?" She imitated the other party's tone.

"How do you think the gray hand will judge? I would be more than happy to have a duel with you. I guarantee that you will be eaten by me bit by bit. I will not make you lose consciousness until it is completely eaten."

The Scorpion Demon Queen wagged her tail as she spoke.

Her upper body is charming and charming, but her lower body looks like a scorpion.

The sharp tail thorn on her back was always pointing at the opponent's heart, and it seemed that she would strike again at any time.

"Hmph! Since you dared to move that card, you are the one who broke the agreement, and you are the chief culprit for the outbreak of the war." The man said unwillingly.

The Scorpion Queen laughed.

"I said how that card could sneak out by itself. It turns out that Gray Hand sent you such a brainless idiot to guard it. No one else can blame it." She said.

"When I get the evidence, you won't be able to laugh." The man said in a deep voice.

He had regained his composure and took out a card.

"The spell reappears."

The man let out a low drink, and immediately activated the card.

In the darkness all around, wisps of light formed the phantom of the card.

In an instant, phantoms of dozens of cards appeared in the void.

The man walked up to each card phantom and observed them carefully.

The war doll, the dark scimitar, the true red magic spear, and some equipment cards—every card the girl had used appeared in front of the man in the form of afterimages of spells.

He looked over one by one, and finally saw that kind of card.

"Sin Abyss Calls——The King Comes."

The man's expression changed.

Only then did he figure out that the Scorpion Demon Queen was summoned.

This completely proved the innocence of the Scorpion Demon Empress.

Thinking back to the tone of my speech before, it was indeed a bit offending to the other party.

but--

How could the Scorpion Queen do something insignificant?

The man looked at the Scorpion Demon Queen, and said gloomyly: "The summoning card has disappeared, but you are still here, why?"

The Scorpion Queen stared at the other party: "Are you questioning me?"

The man endured it, and finally changed his tone and said, "May I ask why you are still here?"

The scorpion demon queen said: "Pig brain, don't you understand this? Because I live in this desert, where else can I go?"

The man froze.

It's over, everything about the other party fits perfectly.

He suddenly understood that no matter whether the opponent made a move or not, the opponent had already delayed enough time for that card.

With my own strength alone, I'm afraid I can no longer track that card.

He sighed deeply.

That card was very important, but it suddenly disappeared, which disrupted his position all of a sudden.

It's also because I was too flustered for a moment, that I was played by this scorpion in the palm of my hand.

Thinking of this, he no longer hesitated, and immediately took out a card to activate it.

Soon, a deep male voice sounded from the card.

"did you find it?"

"Report to the teacher, that card summoned the Scorpion Demon Queen to stop me, so I haven't found it yet." The man stared fiercely at the Scorpion Demon Queen and said in his mouth.

"The Scorpion Queen?"

There was silence on the other side.

Suddenly a book jumped out of the card and flew in front of the Scorpion Queen.

The Scorpion Queen smiled slightly, and pressed her hand to the cover of the book.

The book immediately shouted: "The agreement has not been damaged in any way, Her Majesty the Queen was only summoned!"

The man panicked immediately, knelt on the ground and said, "Master Gray Hand, she attacked me!"

"We'll talk about this later, you must go get that card back immediately." The deep male voice on the other side said.

"Yes!" The man responded quickly.

In front of him, another book appeared.

The book opened automatically, and there was a card embedded in each page.

"This is the five hundred and thirty-seven card restraints I set on that card. You are allowed to use it now, go and grab that card immediately!"

"yes!"

Holding the book in his hands, the man immediately flew up into the sky and disappeared.

However, the card he used to communicate still hasn't expired.

The man named Gray Hand said solemnly: "Queen, I must solemnly tell you that that card is very important to me, I hope you understand this."

"What does this have to do with me? I was walking in the desert, but I was suddenly summoned. I still don't understand it until now." The Scorpion Demon Queen chuckled.

Gray Hand was silent for a while, then laughed: "I don't think you will interfere with my card sacrifice, after all, this is my personal matter, and you are a noble king."

"Of course, you take care of your black market, and we will live our lives here in peace. This has been agreed a long time ago."

"Exactly." Gray Hand agreed.

"But your apprentice has the natural arrogance of a card master, and I think this will make him more and more stupid."

The Scorpion Demon Queen continued: "It is very obvious that meddling in your affairs will not bring us any benefit, so you should have trusted me a long time ago, not that idiot who messed up everything."

The other side was silent for a while, then sighed suddenly: "I can't help it, I have some things on my hands, and I can't rush back for a while. I can only let the disciple take charge of the black market. Who knew he was so useless."

Gray Hand's tone was a little irritated.

He had already seen those tracking spells, and understood that the Scorpion Demon Queen was indeed summoned.

Even the letter of agreement between the two parties did not have any problems.

And everything is just as the other party said, blocking yourself will not bring any benefits to the other party.

A character like the Scorpion Queen doesn't have huge interests, and she doesn't even bother to look at you.

so--

The whole thing was indeed messed up by his useless apprentice.

It's really stupid. Although the card master has surpassed many professions from the beginning, if he can't maintain humility and calmness, sooner or later he will be unable to advance because of his self-righteousness.

As an apprentice, I always think too highly of my identity.

He must accept the most severe reprimand, and re-cognize the truth and laws with a sober attitude!

It's a pity that I am still outside the hundreds of millions of world layers, and I won't be able to make it back in a while.

Whether it's teaching his apprentice a lesson, or looking for that important card, he can't do anything by himself.

So I have always been as calm as gray hands, and now I feel a little bored.

"If my disciple is rude, I apologize to you on his behalf." Gray Hand said.

The Scorpion Demon Queen said: "It's okay, it's just a trivial matter, I just hope you don't call me at will, after all, I have a lot of things to do."

Gray Hand paused, and his tone became softer: "Don't worry, I have set hundreds of restraint techniques on that card, and I will definitely catch it back and take strict care of it, so that it won't cause you trouble again. "

"Well, that's good." The Scorpion Demon Queen said with satisfaction.

"Then we shall meet again."

"Goodbye."

The card disappears.

All spells disappear with it.

Gray hands left.

The Scorpion Demon Queen stood there quietly, seemingly lost in thought.

for a while.

She sighed softly and said, "I can only help you so much."

...

In the boundless desert.

Gu Qingshan is still running.

Although there was nothing chasing after him, his heart was filled with depression and tension.

To be able to imprison such a card, the strength of the opponent must be extremely strong, even invincible.

If this card is really important, the opponent will definitely not leave only one method.

At a certain moment, Gu Qingshan's expression changed.

The sense of urgency in my heart suddenly soared, and a vague desire to die quietly appeared in the spiritual sense.

Compared with other professions, it is very difficult for practitioners to advance through the catastrophe.

But practitioners also have one advantage, that is, their spiritual sense is very keen, and they can predict some vague situations in advance.

Although the current location of Gu Qingshan is quite far away from the place where he fought before, Gu Qingshan vaguely understands in his heart that the matter has just begun.

Something is coming after you.

Gu Qingshan stopped suddenly.

He slapped the storage bag and released the card.

As soon as the card appeared, it turned into a girl in white.

"Use the spell card to investigate and see if we are safe." Gu Qingshan said.

"Not at all," the girl said anxiously, "I have been imprisoned by many card laws, and there must be a tracking method among them."

Gu Qingshan took out the card "Blood Marine God" and asked: "I will give you this card, can you remove those confinement and tracking techniques?"

"I need time." The girl said.
