Chapter 378: The King Capital Comes

Zhu Tian got up from his chair and slowly approached the old priest.

He didn't stop until his shadow hung over the old priest.

"You old fellow, you've said so many mystical things," he said, looking down at Pastor Theon, "but my logic is clear, sir, and I've found a loophole in your logic!"

In the face of Zhu Tian's clumsiness, the old priest still had such a calm expression, shook his head slowly, and denied Zhu Tian's statement:

"I never lied to you. ”

Zhu Tian frowned slightly, narrowed his eyes, and said in a deep voice: "I clearly remember what you said! You said that I would become a big man in the future! But just now! You said that my future is chaotic, and you can't see my future! You old fellow! What are you hiding? My existence, and everything that is happening around me, have you foreseen it in advance!"

After a few seconds, the old priest took his eyes off Zhu Tian's body.

"I've tried to look at your future, to try to walk into chaos, but I've failed. Walking into the chaos, I only saw some blurry images, and I was irreversibly damaged as a result. ”

This statement is a bit vague, and the old pastor Theon, feeling the anger coming from around him, adds:

"I don't see your future, but I see you in the future. Unless there are special circumstances, I never spy on someone's future without permission, I am more accustomed to observing a certain picture after a few years, and it just so happens that I see you in a certain picture a few years later. ”

Thinking carefully about all the words that the old pastor had said before, and then observing the tone and expression of the old pastor's speech, Zhu Tian sat back in his chair and said, "Tell me, what do you see in the future?"

"It's not a good thing for you to know in advance about a certain outcome in the future. "If I tell me how things will turn out, everything will change, and what I can tell you is that you will be able to live a stable life in the last few years." ”

Obviously, Zhu Tian was completely dissatisfied with the old priest's answer, his face was gloomy, he was silent for more than ten seconds, stared at the old priest and asked, "Do you know the Tower of the Dead?" ”

Reverend Theon nodded hesitantly.

"I want to know everything about the Tower of the Dead!"

"The Tower of the Dead is a sacred object left by the God of Light on earth, located in the royal capital, and used to seal the powerful undead and demons on the Great Road. ”

Zhu Tian didn't think about it, and said directly: "If I go to the royal capital now, can I find the Tower of the Dead?"

Old Priest Theon shook his head, sighed and said, "No, because the Tower of the Dead has disappeared twenty years ago......"

Twenty years!

These three deeply touched Zhu Tian's heart. Twenty years is exactly Pique's age, and the Tower of the Dead has disappeared for twenty years?

How does a tower disappear, and who can remove a tower?

Since it is said that powerful undead and demons are sealed inside, it is impossible to dismantle them violently.

Letting a tower disappear into thin air is not something that can be done by man.

"It's a mystery, the Tower of the Dead disappeared one night twenty years ago, and no one knows why. The priests of the royal capital and the astrologers of the royal court all said that the Tower of the Dead was taken back by the god of light. They also celebrated for a whole month. Because the Tower of the Dead occupies almost one-fifth of the area of the capital. After hearing that the Tower of the Dead was gone, they built three schools, a church, and a garrison in that clearing. It's an exaggeration, when I first saw the Tower of the Dead, I thought it was where the gods lived, but it was the complete opposite. ”

The Tower of the Dead did not disappear, but appeared in my dream, the old priest Theon obviously did not know about it, Zhu Tian was hesitant to tell him his secret, hesitated, he still gave up. "How many floors are there in the Tower of the Dead?" he continued, "Do you know what's held inside?"

"One hundred, one thousand, no one knows, because no one can see where the top floor of the Tower of the Dead is, so the Tower of the Dead has another name - the Tower of Infinity. A thousand years ago, during the reign of the Yodelmans, the Tower of the Dead already existed. Ordinary people don't have a chance to approach the Tower of the Dead, and I'm not qualified. Twenty years ago, the Tower of the Dead was under the joint jurisdiction of the Royal Court and the Cult of the Illuminati, and in order to prevent people from approaching the Tower of the Dead, they even enacted Kingdom Decrees and Holy See Decrees - those who approached the Tower of the Dead were treated as traitors and infidels. Therefore, the radius around the Tower of the Dead is a hundred meters away, a no-man's land, and it is likely to be guarded by Kingdom Guards. No one can come close. I'm no exception, and that's all I know about the Tower of the Dead. ”

The old priest Theon is at least eighty years old in Zhu Tian's eyes, and such an old man only has a superficial understanding of the Tower of the Dead, it seems that the Tower of the Dead is not an ordinary mystery.

"You know, but someone will know. You said that the Cult of Light and the royal court jointly control it, so does it mean that these two powerful high-level leaders will know something. ”

The old priest slowly focused his thoughts on what had happened decades ago, and soon he thought of someone. "The Pope of Light," he said, "if you want to know about the Tower of the Dead, you have to find the Pope of Light......"

At this moment, three rapid and continuous knocks on the door suddenly sounded. Zhu Tian couldn't help but look out the door.

I saw that it was Pastor Ilyin who pushed the door open and walked in.

Some dim dim daylight shone in from behind him, and before he knew it, it was already dusk. After the fat pastor Yi walked in, he saw Zhu Tian sitting on the chair, and was obviously stunned. Soon, he reacted, walked to the bedside of the old priest Theon, and said to the gray-haired old man in front of him, "Teacher, the cardinal is here. ”

Suddenly, Zhu Tian jumped up directly from his chair, scaring the fat priest Yi Lin into taking several steps back.

The fat priest was in his early thirties, with a sleek face and very white skin. He just looked at his face close at hand, and the corners of his mouth twitched, "What are you doing?" he said tremblingly.

"What did you just say?"

I said...... I said the Cardinal is here. ”

"Hmm. After a few seconds, Zhu Tian suddenly calmed down, because he suddenly thought that there could not be only one cardinal on this continent. It is very likely that what the fat pastor Ilyin said was not the same person as he thought. "Where did the red-clad host come from?" he began to knock sideways.

Yi Lin felt the oppression in front of him disappear, his face returned to blood, and he subconsciously replied, "The cardinal is from the royal capital. ”

At this time, Zhu Tian became inexplicably nervous.

Cardinal......

The cardinal who came from the royal capital......

It shouldn't be the person you think you are.

But you have to be vigilant!

Zhu Tian silently turned around, came back to the old pastor, and then stretched out two hands towards the old pastor's neck......

Fat Pastor Merlin just breathed a sigh of relief, and after seeing this scene, his heart rose to his throat again. didn't have time to say anything at all, he took two big steps directly and came behind Zhu Tian. But when he saw the scene in front of him again, he was stunned.

I saw Zhu Tian stretch out two hands...... It was to help the old Reverend Theon button up his collar.

The white jade buttons were closed at the collar, Zhu Tian let go of his hand, and slowly said to the old priest: "I will leave first today, I hope you can live a few more years, I still have a lot to ask you." ”

"Well, I can live for a few more years......"

Fat Priest Merlin watched Zhu Tian leave the bamboo building, turned to the old priest Theon and said, "Teacher, look, do I ask the cardinal to come to you, or ......?"

"You receive him yourself, I'm going to rest, if he wants to find me, just say I'm asleep......"

Zhu Tian walked quickly in the back garden of the church, his speed was not ordinarily fast, three steps into two steps, he did not avoid the flowers in the flower bed at all, and stepped directly over the flower bed.

Just a moment later, he walked out of the church.

Unharmed, he untied the hemp rope tied to Big Blackfoot's body on the other side of the church, turned over on the donkey, and walked away quickly.

What Zhu Tian didn't expect was that at this moment, a gaze full of deep meaning was cast out from the door of the church.

The church was empty, with a huge stone pillar standing in the middle, and the cardinal from the royal capital was standing next to it. He withdrew his gaze from the door and stared silently at the ground beneath his feet, not knowing what he was thinking.

He wore a red priest's robe, had blond hair, was over fifty years old, and had a thin build. At this time, his face was tired, and the wrinkles at the corners of his eyes were extremely deep, which seemed to represent infinite sorrow and worry. "Doesn't Pastor Theon want to see me?" he said, turning his head to look at the fat pastor who had just run in front of him. "I just came over and asked him a question. ”

The fat priest Merlin, whose face was flushed, was puzzled, obviously he hadn't spoken yet, but the other party already seemed to know what he was going to say. Could it be that he used his mental power to follow me? No, if he used his mental power to follow himself, who is also a pastor, he will definitely be discovered by himself. Moreover, the cardinal in front of him must know that it is extremely impolite to use spiritual power to come here to investigate at will. This is also expressly forbidden among pastors, after all, there are many pastors who do not want others to use their mental power to probe into their private lives.

"The old priest is already very tired today and is going to sleep. Why don't you come again tomorrow, Your Majesty?"

"Don't prevaricate me with such reasons," he thought for a moment, and said, "Since the old priest is not in good health, I should go to him myself." With that, he strode out of the church and into the backyard of the church.

The fat priest stretched out his hand behind him, but how dare he stop the cardinal, so he could only let him go out.

However, a short-haired man in an earthy yellow linen suit stood in front of him and stopped him.

"You're a church gatekeeper?" said the cardinal, "you shouldn't be standing here, you need to go and guard the door, you're going in the wrong direction." ”

"The gatekeeper should guard all the doors in the church," said the gatekeeper, "the door in the backyard will not be open today, so please go back the way you came." His tone was cold, completely non-negotiable.

"Even if the Knight of Light stood in front of me, he would be ten times more respectful than you. The cardinal grimaced and rebuked: "Get out of the way at once, or the decree of the Holy See will come upon you." ”

"The decree of the Holy See has always been above my head," said the gatekeeper, standing there in a muffled voice, "the decree of the Holy See tells me to guard all the doors of the church, and I always obey it. ”

"Who do you obey?"

"All the priests in the church in the town of peace can order me. ”

"Then you should know who I am, as a cardinal, I can command all the priests in this church!"

"If Pastor Ilyin told me to go away, I would naturally go away. ”

The gatekeeper is neither humble nor arrogant. The cardinal frowned, the crow's feet at the corners of his eyes deepened by three points.

There was a distance of three steps between the two of them, and they didn't see any movement from the two people, but at this moment, the air between the two people suddenly became agitated, and ripples appeared out of thin air!

Then, the cardinal took an unhurried step towards the ripples in front of him!The next moment, he appeared directly behind the gatekeeper!
