Chapter 163: Help
However, after Mineness's departure, he disappeared like Agnes, leaving Duke to wonder if he was being co-starred by the two men.
By the time Agnes found Duke again, it was already two days later.
Duke had just finished his day's work and was pulling out his treasured special drink and getting ready to relax.
Then, like a cat smelling fish, some unscrupulous saint ran through the window and snatched the bottle from Duke's hand.
"Eh, you save some drink, this thing is expensive!"
Seeing that only half a bottle of drink was left after being drunk by Agnes in one gulp, Duke showed a loveless expression, and his heart was dripping blood for his loss.
"Cut, isn't it just half a bottle of drink, I gave you two priceless treasures the other day!"
It's okay not to mention this, as soon as Agnes said this, Duke got angry, and a powerful ring at the end of the good end was actually replaced with two rotten beads, and anyone who put it on it had to go crazy.
"I say, did you come here tonight to entertain me?" Duke, who knew that it was impossible to regain the ring from this undisciplined madwoman, could only spread his hands helplessly, "I don't have anything worth thinking about here." ”
"Eh, with the relationship between the two of us, it's not that material!" Agnes waved her hand and came to grab Duke's bottle again, which he flashed, "I just think it's a bit of a loss to give you two pillars......"
Bang!
The thin clay cup that was originally pinched by Duke was shattered by him when he couldn't control it, and Agnes's next words were also abruptly stopped.
Casually cleaning up the pieces in his hand in front of Agnes, Duke smiled and said to her, "What did you say to me? ”
"Aha, nothing!" Agnes laughed dryly, "I mean, don't you wonder why I didn't give you the ring?"
"Am I not waiting for you to explain?"
"Actually, I'm not afraid to scare you. Agnes suddenly said mysteriously, "I snatched that ring for your own good." ”
Joke!
The unlucky saint snatched things and hid for two days before she came up with such a lame reason, Duke was really disappointed, just crossed his arms and sneered at her and didn't speak.
"Eh, don't believe me. Agnes was a little weak-hearted, "I'm telling the truth, more than the beads I gave you!"
"Let's not talk about the beads, then tell me how to protect me, and I won't blame you if it makes sense. ”
Eventually, Duke was ready to give Agnes a chance to explain what she could say to gag herself.
"That's it......." Agnes' eyes gurgled and rolled for a while before she seemed to remember something: "You know, this ring requires a lot of energy to activate, you, a little third-level mage, were sucked dry all of a sudden, I just saved you, do you understand?"
Well?
This statement is somewhat credible, and this statement quickly reminded Duke of the first time he didn't know how much mental power the epic scroll needed to activate, and directly forcibly activated it, and finally absorbed the mental power.
The stinging of the emptiness at that time, as if he had fallen into an endless void, he really didn't want to experience it again for no reason.
But if you experience this thing again to exchange for the magic effect of destroying the world, Duke thinks it is still worth it, whether it is a magic scroll or a ring, and the ring is weaker than the scroll in terms of power, and it is estimated that the consumption may be less.
"This won't convince me, you go on. ”
"You don't even know for your own good. Agnes snorted, revealing a look that you couldn't help but with, "You know what the back of this ring represents, right?"
"Patriarch of the North, Cardinal Rogil?"
"That's right! He's one of the leaders of the old faction! Now you know that the two factions are going to fight now, right? With this in mind, didn't you tell everyone that you were his faction?
Agnes finally remembered a reasonable reason, clasped her hands, and said to Duke very excitedly.
"There's some truth to that. Duke touched his chin, "Has the competition between the two factions reached this point now?"
Originally, Duke thought that no matter how hard the two sides of the church fought, they would not tear their faces and attack each other, but they didn't expect that now according to Agnes's meaning, it is estimated that the scope of this impact is not only as simple as the top of the church, but even the agents and supporters below will begin to be targeted, and even gather to exert pressure.
Hearing Duke's knowingly question, Agnes gave him a blank look and said, "Otherwise, why do you think I, the holy woman who was running around outside, would be invited back like this? ”
"So serious?" Duke was taken aback, "And you still agreed to Minnes' request to go back?"
"How can I refuse when the teacher says this!" Agnes shook her head and spread her hands helplessly, "Besides, Simon should also go back to help, he and the teacher have the same idea in this regard, and it is not easy for me to escape if I am caught in the middle, right?" ”
"It's also ha. Duke nodded, "What should I do in this competition, or do you need some help?"
"Hey, you poor duke, where is you qualified to play such a big game, you better mess with your outcasts!"
Thinking about how much they could be considered acquaintances, Duke felt that he had to help Agnes within his power no matter what, but he was directly ridiculed by her for her lack of strength, and Duke just wanted to beat her up with that cheap expression.
But when I think about it, what she said is also reasonable, the current strength of Duke is still not enough, and it may still have a small role in the north, and it is not enough to look at it in front of a behemoth like the Church of Light.
So Duke just wanted to get involved and get some benefits, but the idea was still too greedy, and it was very likely that he wouldn't get anything and put himself in it.
"Of course, you're not useless. ”
However, Agnes actually patted Duke on the shoulder very rarely to comfort him, which made Duke feel a little bad for an instant.
Sure enough, before Duke could react, Agnes hooked his shoulders and said with a smile: "For example, I have a very important matter that I need your help with, please be sure to agree......"
