Chapter 109: The Divine Favor
"A piece of magical equipment that only Titans can use......" Richard smacked his lips, "sounds pretty good." ”
After he finished speaking, the field was quiet for a while, and no one answered, until Gangmanzi spoke.
"It's perfect, there's a Titan missing now. Gunther nodded pretendly.
"So, dear Gunther, where can we get a Titan back?" asked Hurt in a serious manner.
"Maybe...... 10,000 years ago?"
The two living treasures glanced at each other and laughed wildly at the same time.
The lord didn't laugh, he saw that Qiqiu was running not far away at this time, and beckoned and shouted, "Little come here." Suddenly, a black whirlwind swept over the turf, and then catapulted and landed on Richard's lap.
"Chiqiu. The straw stick was played vigorously in the claws of Qiqiu, and after a set of beatings, he stood on one foot and posed for a long time, and was scratched twice by the lord in the creaking nest, giggling and lying down and starting to roll around.
The little thing's claws have been getting sharper and sharper lately, and a slight rub has hooked up a thread on Richard's pants.
"This is the Titan. The lord grabbed Qiqiu with both hands and held it up, so serious that his face was expressionless.
Looking at Chiqiu, who was innocently blinking, Gunther and Hurt, who had just stopped, suddenly laughed back and forth. The intensity is undoubtedly unbearable for the trachea.
"Although no one can use it as a magical equipment, in any case, the value of this ring is far from being as simple as an ordinary antiquity. Hendra said that he was not sure whether it was true or false, and could only pray in his heart that he would at least get through the trick, "Maybe there is also a hidden alchemy technology of the Titans, and it is not an exaggeration to describe it as priceless." ”
"Very well, even if it's a story, I have to say that you made up a good story. Richard waved his hand to stop Gunther's reckless impulsiveness, "The treasures of the Doge, the hidden treasures, the hidden voyeurs, lo and behold—everything is popular, and it will be a big hit if it is turned into a play." ”
"Why don't you give him two hours to hang his fingers and calm down?" Gunther buckled his nose, and it was not a big deal to see the excitement.
"What do you mean by hanging fingers?" asked Hurt knowingly.
"It is to tie the two thumbs with hemp rope, tie them to the tree, and hang the whole person. Gunther grinned heartily.
According to the ancestral experience of the barbarians, this punishment was not particularly cruel at first glance, and it was not a deterrent compared to gouging out the eyes and cutting out the nose. But in fact, it is very effective, at most hours, ordinary people will even be a child at a few years old to play with fire and wet the bed.
Those who can grit their teeth and resist this are really tough guys, and it probably doesn't make sense to use other punishments.
"I swear in the name of the Holy Light God, this is not a story. Hendra's eyelashes fluttered, and the gray-green pupils that hid beneath them rippled like a lake.
"Perhaps, but Master Ben is curious, since no one else has been able to discover this secret, how did you find out?" asked the lord noncommittally.
"I've been interested in history since I was a child, so I can see some clues in the form. Later......"
"Lying, you are lying. Richard snapped his fingers, and everyone immediately turned their eyes to him, "How old are you? Twenty-four? Ten years ago, you were fourteen, and a fourteen-year-old child who is slightly interested in history will know more about history than a professional collector who is obsessed with collecting antiquities?"
"These are the things I have come to see from ancient texts, and it is not surprising that Magellan, though he is very knowledgeable, has not read a particular one-of-a-kind book. ”
"Dare to keep your mouth shut!" Gunther was furious.
"It's a possibility. The lord shook his head and laughed, laughing so hard that Hendra's heart was furious, "But—you said before that the ring's elemental fluctuations are almost impossible to sense, and you must not have been able to sense them as a child, right?"
"Yes. Hendra scratched his hair, which he hadn't combed for two months, pulled out a louse, pinched it to death, and threw it away, "The Titan's alchemy technology may be far beyond what is imagined today, and the elements are condensed to the extreme, but it is difficult to sense. ”
"Tell me, dear Legionnaire, why did you never suspect it to be an imitation?" Richard stopped smiling, his eyes as sharp as the tips of two sharp knives reaching his heart, staring at Hendra as if he were going to see him through to the flesh and bones.
Hendra said that it was nothing more than eyesight, but what made the lord feel strange was that when a normal person encounters such a thing, even if he can make a judgment purely based on the form, he should more or less suspect - could it be a fake?
What's more, even the slightest element fluctuation of a star cannot be captured, so it is naturally more inclined to identify it as a fake.
But Richard could sense from Hendra's words that the suspicion that a normal person should have had never existed for him from beginning to end.
The occurrence of abnormal events often means that there is a deeper problem. In Richard's view, there are only two possibilities at the moment - Hendra is mentally handicapped and living in his own world, unable to distinguish between east and west, or ...... He hid some of the key things and didn't say them.
"I don't want to take you for a retarded person, personal advice, you'd better not be treated as if I was. Richard pressed one hand to his chest, "If you have to go your own way, be prepared to bear the consequences." ”
Hendra was silent.
The lord waited patiently for nearly a quarter of an hour, but the response to him was silence and silence.
The wind was blowing the blades of grass, Chiqiu was pouting his ass and fighting with the rabbit hole in the grass, and occasionally a loud eagle's cry could be heard in the distance, and Richard's patience was gradually bottoming out.
"Gunther, push it down and cut it. He leaned back and snapped his fingers in a dashing manner, not touching half a wisp of fireworks, "It's not impossible to be clever in front of me, but you must be strict and remember it in the next life." ”
When Gunther began to push, Hendra finally couldn't help but speak. In the face of death threats, he simply could not remain indifferent.
This opening was the shock of all four seats—"Because I'm a god." ”
............
The world is not fair, there will always be some people who are just born and fall on the end of the life of others.
This is true not only of the worldly world of money and power, but also in the field of magic. For ordinary people, spellcasting is a skill that must be learned diligently, and every step is difficult and difficult. But for the other small group of people, there is no need to learn or work hard, they are born like monsters to master some of the magic abilities.
Some mages who hold back their sour stomachs call this kind of lucky person - the Divine Favorite.
As the name suggests, the lucky ones who are favored by the gods. Considering the mage's refusal to believe in the gods, it's not hard to see that the title also contains a lot of irony and disdain.
Because the vast majority of gods can only guard their natural spells and eat their old books throughout their lives.
