Chapter 45: Fragments of the Dead Sea Papers and Clues to the Akshay Records
The classical man who came in greeted Lucifer elegantly, and then raised his head with a smile, the golden wig was unexpectedly soft, and there was no feeling of heaviness.
But Lucifer knew that every strand of the wig was brilliant gold because they were all made of gold.
You read or heard it right—it's real long blonde hair.
Not only that, but every aspect of the classical man's clothing can be described as truly luxurious—even eight different gemstone rings on his ten fingers.
Although his unique temperament and his nouveau riche dress did not look vulgar, Lucifer still understood this guy's dirty heart.
"Wolfgang, it's not Tuesday, why did you come early?" Lucifer, accompanied by Charlotte, sat in a chair encrusted with many gems.
Wolfgang was the classical man's name, and Lucifer did not like to call him by the surname that was embraced by later generations.
"There were some small things going on, so I was going to change my original plan. "Mozart...... Wolfgang was even more humble at this point.
For he knew very well what the identity of the noble woman sitting in front of him was: the child of light, the great star of the dawn, the king of hell, the lord of the army of fallen angels......
"Oh?"
Wolfgang said, "Your Highness has said that if I can play a hundred pieces that will move you, you will promise me to lead you once to the gap between the sides." ”
"It's nineteen songs, and time flies. Lucifer cupped his cheeks and chuckled, "But, Wolfgang, are you reminding me of my promise? Do you think I have a bad memory, or do you think I won't keep it in the end?"
"Of course not. Wolfgang shook his head, maintaining his composure.
Even if the one in front of him is the child of light who betrayed God in the teleportation...... But as a member of a special group, even if he can't be defeated, he can leave calmly - but once it develops into that situation, then the good relationship between the two parties that he has been working hard to manage before may be ruined.
Wolfgang couldn't help but smile bitterly at this time: "Your Highness, at first I originally thought that with my ability, to play a hundred tunes that can move you, even if it is difficult, it is not an impossible task. It's only thirty years later, and only nineteen songs have reached the standard, which is too slow. ”
"Once a week, but you begged me to give you a chance. Lucifer continued to hold his cheeks while narrowing his eyes, "What, you're going to get more opportunities from me?"
"Yes, I think it would be nice if I could get two chances a week. Wolfgang lowered his head, preventing Lucifer from seeing what he was looking like at this point.
He really felt like he was in a cocoon—no matter how great a writer and performer he had been, he had only been affirmed nineteen times in the past thirty years.
When I am full of enthusiasm, put a lot of effort into composing new songs, and come with hope, all I get in the end is an indifferent attitude...... I had my head caught in the door panel in the first place, so I came to this fallen lord!
Thirty years...... How many girlfriends can I find?
"I'm only in the mood to listen to you on Tuesday. Lucifer said indifferently: "Love doesn't come, don't come next time, and don't come again in the future." ”
Wolfgang's eyes jumped slightly. His self-confidence had been shattered by the king of hell over the past few decades.
In contemporary vocabulary, if you want to find a person who can describe your state at this time, it must be: suffering.
Yes, he was sure that he must be the most struggling of all the detached ones—after the recent news that other detached had succeeded in becoming the leaders of the new detached......
How can it be forced?
You see, even the Tibetan sword that is in the middle of the cracks and doesn't come out very often can pick up a human at home!
You heard it right, it was the one you picked up at home!
It's just heartless!
"Your Highness, please grant me a chance. Wolfgang was not going to give up just like that, he knew the rules of Lucifer's place, "For this I am willing to offer sacrifices." ”
"Sacrifice?" Lucifer smiled suddenly, "we can move on to the conversation." But, Wolfgang, this must be your sacrifice to satisfy me. ”
"Your Highness, please look. Wolfgang reached out and swiped lightly in front of him, then carefully pulled out a wooden box from the crack.
The wooden box itself was no longer mortal, and Lucifer could feel a hint of the divine aura emanating from the wooden box. She frowned, then suddenly said, "A branch of the Apple Tree of Eden?"
Wolfgang smiled, "That's right, this box is made of the branches of the apple tree. ”
Lucifer shook his head: "Although this box is precious, it is useless to me. But you can send it to the Holy See, and I'm sure they'll be willing to return it to you with a mountain of gold. ”
"It's just used to preserve what is truly dedicated to you. Wolfgang slowly opened the lid of the box.
Lucifer's eyesight was excellent, and in an instant he could get a glimpse of what the box was inside—a yellowed page.
"This is ......" Charlotte had already glimpsed it at this time, and showed a hint of surprise for a moment.
Lucifer didn't wait for Wolfgang to continue speaking, he reached out and grabbed the void, and the pages hidden in the box flew directly into her palm.
She looked silently.
"Lucifer, is this the ......" Charlotte already had some speculations in her mind, but she didn't seem to be sure.
Lucifer closed her eyes—but when she opened them again, she seemed to be moved, "It's the real thing...... Dead Sea Papers, Wolfgang is really sorry you were able to find one of the fragments." ”
Wolfgang smiled slightly at this time: "According to legend, the Dead Sea Papers record the origin of history, the birth of the gods. And the one I have in my hand happens to record the battle between His Highness and the Archangel back then. ”
"I'm curious where you got this page from. Lucifer seems to have avoided Wolfgang's reference to 'the battle of that year', and instead asked directly about the origin of the page.
"As luck would have it. Wolfgang smiled and said, "This is something that one of my descendants accidentally got during an archaeological expedition...... Of course, I also used a little method to replace the fragments from his hands. ”
Lucifer said interestingly: "I really didn't expect that you who were once known as a musical wizard...... Later generations actually went to archaeology. ”
Wolfgang smiled wryly: "We have no reason to limit the development of our children and grandchildren. Although he aspired to be an archaeologist as well as a paleophile. ”
Lucifer nodded, but she clearly heard the bitterness in Wolfgang's words.
Wolfgang looked at him inquiringly.
Lucifer was silent for a while before he said, "I have accepted this sacrifice...... I have my rules, and since you have sacrificed something good to me, I will give you a fair amount in return. Unlike Him, I never speak of the ethereal...... Let's give you something substantial. ”
"Thank you, Your Highness!"
Lucifer stood up and said, "From now on, every Tuesday and Sunday, you can come to me and play for me. In addition, the number of 100 tunes can be reduced by 50. ”
Wolfgang was overjoyed, this was equivalent to his original task, which was several times simpler—he could finally see the end, and he could not satisfy the master of hell without having his hands cramping every time he played the piano.
"In that case, I'll go and prepare it right away. Wolfgang said happily: "Your Highness, I have just written a new movement!"
Lucifer played: "Starting next week - because I'm not in the mood for today, and it also disrupts my original schedule." ”
Although Wolfgang was a little disappointed that he could not do it on the same day, it was enough good luck that he had received the promise from Lucifer...... Waiting a few more days is not unavoidable for Wolfgang, who already has a long life.
"Then, I'll step back first, Your Highness. "Wolfgang practiced very standard court etiquette.
"Wait, if your descendants can still find the fragments of the Dead Sea Papers in the future, they can continue to bring them to me. Lucifer chuckled, "If there are enough of them, maybe I can directly agree to your request and accompany you back to the gap between the two sides." ”
Wolfgang was not as happy as he imagined when he heard such a promise, but nodded—such a promise was not much different from a blank promise—and it was great luck that his descendants would be able to find a fragment.
Therefore, even as an ancestor, Wolfgang himself is not optimistic about the next luck of this descendant.
Because, according to legend, the complete "Dead Sea Papers" contains the secret of opening something else...... The Aksya Record, which records the roots of everything.
......
Charlotte took the page from Lucifer's hand, very curious: "The legend of the Dead Sea Papers is related to the search for clues to the 'Aksha Records', and Wolfgang is willing to show it to you. ”
Lucifer said indifferently: "The transcendent relies on the cracks on both sides to obtain almost eternal life, and the 'Aksha Record', as one of the root things, is one of the important carriers of the consciousness of the Lord in this world, and its preciousness may be willing even if he exchanges the whole of Eden...... However, such a treasure is equivalent to poison for this group of transcendents. ”
As he spoke, Lucifer sneered: "This group of guys who betrayed the world don't dare to stand in front of the world and shout. In exchange for a permit from me, others may seem like a big loss, but in fact, for Wolfgang, it is at best a waste use. Again...... It's just a fragment of a page, but it doesn't really do much. ”
"And you promise him?" asked Charlotte, puzzled.
"Is it waived? In the end, whether I can be satisfied or not, is the initiative still in my hands? What is the difference between one tune and a hundred? Besides...... Who made this page a fragment of my war with my brother?"
Lucifer suddenly sneered, "Although the most important function of the Dead Sea Document is to serve as a road marker to find the 'Aksha Record', it also has the ability to make people excited. ”
"Oh?"
"To have the complete Dead Sea Papers is to have the power to rewrite history. Lucifer's eyes lit up: "The bearer can use it to rewrite history - of course, such a rewriting does not really change what happened in history." What it rewrites is people's perception of relevant history. ”
"I don't understand. "Charlotte was straightforward.
Lucifer said, "Let's take an analogy. A man named Ryan, who died in battle a hundred years ago, and who was just a nameless creep. But by rewriting the Dead Sea Papers, we can let posterity know that Lane was a great king, once invincible, and even founded a great nation. Then, all history will serve Lane, and in all our cognitions, learning, and literature, this great monarch will appear - but the real Lane is still the unknown soldier. ”
"It's not so much a rewriting ......," Charlotte was shocked, "it's better to say that it's the ability to manipulate historical memory!
"No matter how terrifying it is, you need to have the complete Dead Sea Papers. Lucifer said with pity, "That said, there has never been a guy who has been able to obtain the complete Dead Sea Papers. It is also unknown whether this ability exists. ”
"I might be able to figure out where the rest of the pages are. Charlotte picked up the fragment, her fingers curling her hair, her face full of excitement, "If it's a clue, the success rate should be pretty good." ”
Lucifer was silent...... Why do you like divination so much?
"Hmm...... I don't know why I suddenly got better. Lucifer said coldly: "Charlotte, accompany me to the courtyard for tea." ”
"Okay. ”
But in the next moment, Lucifer suddenly stopped and frowned. Charlotte looked at it with concern, but Lucifer said, "Bucky is calling out to me." ”
"Bucky, did he show up?" Charlotte was stunned, "Looks like he's in some danger?"
Before the conversation with Wolfgang, Bucky's aura had just disappeared and reappeared so soon?
Lucifer's expression suddenly became strange: "It is indeed calling to me, but it is very weak...... It seems that something really troublesome. ”
Lucifer shook his head and waved his hand, and a black six-pointed star circle suddenly appeared on the floor in front of him, "I don't know who you are, but don't you plan to pay a little price for the idea of hitting my prey?"
Once a child of light, a star of the dawn, now the king of hell...... Each of them is a figure who shocks the Three Realms by stomping on the transcendent side world - she really doesn't take much into her eyes.
Charlotte shook her head, probably not knowing that the indigenous gods that had popped up there, or the descendants of the gods, had captured Bucky in the arrangement.
After all, that guy from Bucky had the gift of Lucifer: a super lucky.
However, at this moment, Lucifer suddenly spit out a mouthful of blood, and the black six-pointed starlight array in front of him was directly shattered at the same time.
Before she could even remember to say a word, she fell to the ground with a frightened look in her eyes.
"Lucifer!" Charlotte was startled.
After falling to the ground, Lucifer was in a coma at this moment!
