Chapter 65 Lies and noose
The fiery red sky, criss-crossing streets, towering buildings, and magnificent landscapes create a grand and busy scene. Tower-like buildings and wide streets complement each other, and radiant billboards shine with brilliant colors. The flying vehicles shuttled between high altitudes, leaving behind flickering trails.
Astra stood on the rooftop of the palace, overlooking the magnificent city below, looking a little dazed for a moment.
This is Krypton.
The red sun shines on the earth, and the bright cities shine under the sun, with typical Kryptonian-style buildings. Astra faced this majestic city, feeling dizzy and aching in her temples.
"Honey, what happened?"
Astra turned her head. Standing behind her was a tall and muscular man, with strong muscle lines wrapped tightly in a black, close-fitting combat uniform. He has a thick, messy beard and a chiseled face.
That was her husband Norn.
"I don't know." Astra rubbed her temples, "I feel like something is wrong, but I can't remember it."
"Relax, honey. There's nothing wrong." Norn said softly, grabbing her hand, "We succeeded."
"Succeeded?" Astra was confused for a moment.
"The Great Purge." Norn said excitedly, "Now everyone on Krypton has been affected by the Great Purge and has willingly surrendered to us!
We finally made it! You and I, together we climbed to the top of this country and this planet, and became the true and only master of Krypton! "
"We are right." Astra's face moved slightly, as if she had remembered something.
As his expression gradually became more exciting, he revealed an uncontrollable smile.
"We have succeeded in our dream ambition, becoming the king of this planet. Krypton will flourish in our hands!"
After that, the two looked at each other and laughed together.
After laughing for half a minute, Astra finally couldn't help but stop. However, her husband beside her showed no signs of stopping at all. He still raised his head and opened his mouth, laughing.
Seeing his appearance, Astra couldn't help but feel ashamed.
It turns out that it looks so stupid from a third-party perspective.
She coughed and patted Norn's shoulder, signaling that it was almost done.
However, instead of stopping, the latter laughed more and more wildly and exaggeratedly, until it was even unbearable.
As Noen suddenly turned around, Astra discovered with horror that her husband's eyes had turned into a pair of light bulbs, which instantly aroused the instinctive vigilance deep in her heart.
It was as if a big word had penetrated deeply into her mind.
Danger!
"Hahahahaha, conquer Krypton? You really dare to think about it. Take a look, who am I?"
Her husband's face was instantly stretched to pieces in front of her, and was replaced by a silver-white head as strong as steel. The red and silver body emerged from the skin bag, with a golden light that blinded the eyes of humans and dogs. At the same time, its size expanded rapidly until it became a giant standing tall on the sky and the earth.
In an instant, Krypton was in turmoil, and the entire world began to be destroyed. Buildings collapsed, the ground sank, the sky seemed to be on fire, and the sun exploded.
The giant stood in the center of the apocalyptic world, looking at her mockingly. Astra felt like she was falling into an abyss, and the great fear almost swallowed her up. She wanted to resist, but she couldn't even move a finger. She could only print on the strong wind, facing the terrifying and huge silhouette, heartbreaking. He let out a sharp roar.
"Uhhhhh!!!"
The next moment, the scene suddenly disappeared.
The burning sky, the destroyed city, and the giant standing among the destruction disappeared in an instant.
In the blink of an eye, Astra found that she was tied securely to a chair, with her mouth open and screaming at an empty wall.
A young man and an old man with a white beard, one on the left and one on the right, were looking at her with their arms folded.
Astra opened her mouth, blinked her eyes, and looked at the two people next to her with some vigilance.
The scene was a little awkward for a while.
Shen You glanced sideways at the old wizard beside him: "By the way, is it normal for her to scream so loudly?"
"That shouldn't be the case." The old wizard stroked his beard, "The 'Lose of Lies' on her body corresponds to the 'Lose of Truth' of the Amazons. It is an artifact woven from lies.
The trapped creature will see the lies carefully woven for it by the rope, an illusion that makes it difficult to extricate itself. But none of us know exactly what she saw, so it might be some um... indescribable scene. "
"That's it." Shen You nodded.
The Kryptonian woman glared at the two. In a fit of rage, she immediately tried to investigate the case, and used super speed to crush the two people who dared to offend her and still pointed at them into the concrete - well, part of it was because she wanted to kill someone and silence them.
Then I realized I couldn't do it.
She was firmly fixed in the seat beneath her, and the lie ropes tied her tightly. Although this thing is not as well-known and powerful as the mantra lasso in Diana's hand, it is still an enchanted artifact of the Greek god system, and it is not that easy to get rid of.
And after trying to raise her energy, Astra soon found that she couldn't use even half of her strength.
Even when I tried to use my heat vision and tried my best, I could only feel that my eye sockets were a little red and hot, but nothing could come out.
It was like these two had drained her dry in some way.
Astra narrowed her eyes and glared at the two of them angrily: "What did you do to me?"
"Well, it's nothing. I just used the Red Sun Juicer to squeeze out your solar energy to prevent you from messing around. This will be easier for us." Shen You crossed his arms and said, "Then we have two questions to ask. .”
"Oh, feel free to use your most filthy and despicable methods, evil Star of Light." Astra said coldly, "But don't expect me to reveal even a word of information.
I am a glorious Kryptonian warrior. We will never surrender, let alone compromise, and we will never bow to evil forces. Just do whatever you want to do. "
"It's not like I haven't heard of weirder names for people like Light Star."
At least it sounds better than Jushan Super.
"Don't say it so harshly." Shen You said seriously, "It sounds like you are the one who invaded other people's planets. We are good people here."
Good guy?
Astra narrowed her eyes and looked down at the classic "tortoise shell binding" rope tied to her body.
Then he raised his head and looked at the two people in front of him with empty eyes.
The expression is like saying, are you sure?
"Well"
Shen You turned to look at the old wizard.
The meaning seems to be that what he tied is none of my business.
The old wizard also turned his head and looked to his side, but stiffly found that there was no one next to him, and it seemed that he couldn't get rid of the pot. So he had to stroke his beard and said calmly: "I just cast a binding spell. The binding method is determined by the noose itself."
