My voice suddenly sank: "Alan, are you impatient again?"

"No, no...... Alan quickly explained, "I'm running out of magic again, and I'm about to fall into a short slumber. If you want to save your friend, you'll have to work with Annie. Only she can find a way to break the Siren's curse but me. You've got to cooperate!"

"Do you say that again?" I took out the last half of Allen's phalanx from my body, and Allen's voice had disappeared, and the half of the phalanx I was holding in my hand instantly lost its luster and became gray.

I simply threw the finger bone to Ye Xun, who didn't hesitate to smash it with a sword. Anne said at this time: "Wang Huan, I can guarantee you that none of your companions are dead. They were simply imprisoned by the Sirens. I can help you get them out. If you don't believe me, I can make a contract with you in a way that you can feel comfortable with. ”

"Miss Annie!" Elena exclaimed, taking a step forward, but was blocked by Annie.

As Anne looked me in the eye, I asked in a deep voice, "How dare you guarantee that my friend is okay?"

"The Siren curse may seem terrifying, but it takes a long time from the beginning of the curse to the death of the target," Anne said. It will take at least half a month for someone to die. The people who were taken into the underground prison by the sirens during this time will certainly not die. For that matter, I can vouch for it with my life, and if your companions die of the curse before we reach the dungeon, I am willing to bury them. ”

"No!" exclaimed Elena, "Miss, how can such a thing ......?"

Anne waved her hand to stop the other party, her eyes were as clear as water, I looked at each other's eyes for a long time, but I didn't see any emotional fluctuations in the other party's eyes, I said in a deep voice: "What are you paying such a big price to form an alliance with me?"

"To break the curse of the family!" Anne said with a deep breath, "Actually, every generation of family members who enter the Dark Castle does not just come and wait for death. They will try their best to crack the secret of the Dunhuang curse before they die. Hopefully, one day the Tulip family can be lifted out of their cursed fate. This time, we are infinitely close to breaking the curse. That's why we've dispatched so many family members, but ......"

Anne said gloomily, "Because of my command error, we lost too many men. If we can't find an ally, we'll lose a rare opportunity, so I can only choose to form an alliance with you. ”

Anne's words were slurred, but I understood the main meaning. As for the curse of the Tulip family, I don't think it's time to get to the bottom of it. At least, Anne won't tell me the truth now.

I clasped my hands over my shoulders and said, "I can form an alliance with you, but I must save my friends first, even if it is to let your Tulip family die, I must save my friends first." If you agree, we can give us a high-five. Otherwise, nothing to talk about. ”

"No! This is absolutely not possible!" Elena stopped, "This contract is too unfair! Miss, you can't make such an agreement with Wang Huan!"

Anne gently pushed the other party away: "I have no choice now, the only thing I can do is to believe in Wang Huan." ”

Elena wanted to say something more, but Anne raised her dagger: "What I say now represents the highest decision of the family, and no one is allowed to object!"

Elena saw that the dagger could only bow her head and step aside, she could not oppose the supreme decision of the family.

Anne walked up and held the dagger in both hands and sent it to my eyes: "This pirate dagger represents the supreme authority of the Tulip family, and I will lend him to you for the time being." Before we leave the Dark Castle, all your orders represent the supreme decision of the Tulip Family, and no one can oppose it. ”

I took the dagger and looked at it carefully, the dagger with a scabbard made of gold and a handle full of precious stones, although I don't know how many masters it had passed, it was still shiny and cold.

I looked at it for a long time, but I couldn't see how the dagger was made. So far, the only weapons that I can't see the creation technique are my bloody eyes of Contempt and Ye Xun, and now I'm afraid I will have to add this dagger.

After looking at it for a moment, I solemnly pinned the dagger to my waist: "Take me to my companion!"

"Not yet!" Anne instinctively replied to me, and when she saw me frown, she quickly explained, "If we want to break the curse of the sirens, we must first get the Church's lost relics in the dark castle. That holy relic will not only save your friends, but also the key to breaking the curse of Dunhuang. “

I wondered, "A place where demons and curses gather, there will be a lost relic of the Holy See?"

"Yes!" replied Anne solemnly, "that relic may have been cursed as well!" the family had always suspected that the artifact was the lost Spear of Destiny. ”

"Spear of Fate?" I couldn't help but gasp, "Are you sure?"

In European mythology, the famous "Spear of Destiny" is also known as the Spear of Longinus), a weapon that once pierced Jesus.

According to the Bible, when Jesus was crucified, a centurion stabbed him in the flank with a spear. The centurion was called Longinus. The blood of Jesus dripped into Longinus's eyes, and Longinus was instantly moved, after which he gave up his former identity and became a monk, and possessed the power to perform miracles. Later he was posthumously recognized as a saint and called "St. Longinus".

Legend has it that as long as you hold the spear of destiny, people within a radius of 120 feet are surrendered, and you can control the fate of the world, but those who lose it will be killed instantly, in the ancient Roman Empire, this gun became a symbol of power, many successful monarchs, holding this gun in their hands to win countless battles.

However, the spear of fate was later interrupted into three sections after countless battles, which were circulated in various places. One of the Spears of Fate is in the Holy See, while the other two are inconclusively authentic. Many people have legends that the Spear of Destiny is still wandering somewhere.

If the lost relic is really the spear of fate. So, why are holy relics cursed?

Anne shook her head and said, "What I said is just a family guess, and no one can prove what that holy relic is. Otherwise, the Knights of Light would not have penetrated deep into the Dark Castle. ”

"Are you talking about the knights who are chasing us?" Although Ye Xun and I killed ten knights, the luck factor accounted for most of them. If, all the knights who hunted down us came out to fight against us, Ye Xun and I would be divided into corpses by the blade.

"Yes!" Anne nodded, "That's one of the Church's four secret knights." The most terrifying thing about the Knights of Light is their armor, which is said to have come from a mysterious place. If, according to your words, it is the mythical forbidden zone of the West. The Holy See paid countless costs to get those armors and equip the Knights of Light. “

I said to myself, "I knew I should have grabbed a few pieces of armor!"

"Even if you get the Holy Light Armor, it's useless. Anne shook her head and said, "It is said that the Divine Armor can only be worn by knights of pure faith to exert its power, and even if others get it, it can only be called a burden." ”

As I narrowed my eyes slightly, Anne continued, "Did you notice that one of the characteristics of the Knights of Light is that they don't use firearms?"

I've been aware of this for a long time. With the defense of the Holy Armor, if combined with firearms, the Knights of the Holy Light will be invincible, and it will be easy to leave us all in the moat.

Anne said, "To the Knights of Light, they are adhering to the traditions of the Knights, and to me, it is just a sign of eating the old. ”

"Western knights have had centuries of glory, and they appear in almost all stories, and many are even worshipped as gods. It was not until the advent of muskets that the myth of knighthood was shattered and the age of knights ended. When musket units were built up in large numbers in the West, there were still a group of people who fantasized that knights could reproduce the glory of the Middle Ages. ”

When I heard this, I couldn't help but nod and said, "There are people everywhere who hold the coffin, and later, they succeeded?"

"It can be said that they succeeded, and it can be said that they failed. ”

Anne continued: "Those people of the age of Phantasmagional Knight are not crazy people who only know fantasy. They knew that the knight's armor could not stop the bullets of the musket. So, they set out to find the legendary vanished Holy Knights. Legend has it that the Knights who once assisted the angels in the decisive battle against the Lords of Hell had indestructible armor and swords that could cleave everything. Only with these can they gain a foothold in the West, where firearms are prevalent. ”

Anne paused and said, "Although those knights have succeeded in finding the Lost Knights, most of them cannot use the Holy Armor, and only a few knights from the Holy See can use the armor freely. They failed to restore the glory of the knights, but they brought back news of a thousand sets of sacred armor. Let yourself live an aristocratic life. ”

"The Holy See, having received the armor, used the armor to form four knightly orders and a papal convoy. What you see is the Knights of Light, the weakest of the four Holy Knights. ”

The weakest knight order has such a strong combat power. How terrifying should the strongest knights be?

I frowned and said, "If you work with the Knights, you are not afraid of offending the Holy See?"

Although the Holy See is no longer in its former glory, it can no longer be above the royal power. However, the position in the West is no less negligible. It is not necessarily a wise thing for the Tulip family to offend the Holy See.
