Section 407 Debt of favors
The high priest buried his head and whispered, "False." Pen ~ Fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info"
"I promised you that as long as what you said was true, I owed you a favor. Angler paused and looked at the high priest: "If you have any requests, you can ask me now, as long as I can do it." ”
Now that he had made his promise, Ingres had no intention of breaking his promise.
The high priest was silent for a long time, and his thoughts turned back and forth a thousand times, and finally turned into a deep sigh: "In the past thousand years, I have felt the most guilty about my people. I don't know if my request will come true, but I have no other way out. ”
"What are you trying to say?" Ingres looked at the High Priest, who fell to his knees tremblingly.
The high priest made a long kowtow: "I hope your lord will save our people." ”
Although Ingres had roughly guessed what the High Priest had thought before he said it, when he did, Ingres still didn't know how to react.
The concept of saving a clan is too broad. He didn't know what the High Priest needed him to do, and if the scope was extended to the entire Kulakuka clan, with his current strength, he would definitely not be able to afford it.
The High Priest saw that Ingres was silent for a long time, and that it was impossible for him to save the whole race, and he sighed in his heart, and said the second sentence: "I am very relieved that my people will not be wiped out. ”
This sentence is the minimum limit in his mind.
"Actually, if you stay in the Garden of Living Souls, there is basically no catastrophe of extinction. Angels said calmly.
The high priest shook his head: "If you are shackled, you are a person under people after all." I hope that the Kulakuka clan, even if there is only one branch, will have absolute freedom. ”
"That's the change you're looking for?"
"I've thought about it for a long time since my lord went to the Holy Castle. Our people are already in a quagmire, and it is almost impossible to make a radical change. I thought about it for a long time, it was we who made this choice in the first place, and I was the only one left alive in that generation, so I could only be responsible for it. I also don't pursue sweeping change, because that's a slap in the face. So, even if there is only one clan, I can have freedom, and I am satisfied. ”
Angel was silent, and from the fact that the three Gao brothers were freely shuttling between the three worlds of the table, the middle, and the inside, it could actually be seen that the Kulakuka people were not grounded. They wanted to leave the Garden of Living Souls, not imminently, but unwillingly.
Therefore, the absolute freedom demanded by the high priest is actually from the root of the "bloodline", so that the Kulakuka clan can have an independent branch, so that they will not be affected by the magic energy array depicted by Sipolok, and can reproduce freely.
In fact, this requirement is still not very easy to achieve.
Angel turned his head to look at the shadows and said, "Gami, Gao, Gamiao, have been taken in Sky Machinery City?"
Shadow nodded, "Yes, the Kulakuka clan has a strong miniature carving skill, and my mentor values this skill very much, so he accepted the three of them. However, there is no formal apprenticeship, just hanging under the name of my mentor. ”
"Do you know what their blood is?"
"My mentor once said that the bloodlines of the three brothers were bound by a certain cornerstone, and I didn't understand it before, but now I probably know that the mentor is talking about the magic array carved under the West Pollock. The Shadow sighed and said to Angel, "This high priest's request doesn't seem difficult. But if you want to solve it, you have to start from the magic energy array, but if you really move the magic energy array, it will definitely affect the whole body. ”
Shadow's words, Ingres understood. Because no matter how far Kurakuka goes, after they die, their souls will still be attracted back by Sipolok's magic array. This is a fetter connected to the bloodline, and if you keep cutting it, you can't be truly free.
"It's really not easy to achieve, this old man just kicks his nose in the face. The shadow whispered and cursed.
Angel replied, "If you can give the three Gami brothers absolute freedom, wouldn't you want to?"
The shadow was silent for a long time before he said, "Of course I do, but it's not a problem we can solve." This is the magic energy array arranged by the third-level true knowledge great wizard, who can untie the shackles of their bloodline now......?"
"Isabel herself. Both thought of this at the same time.
Ingres lowered his eyes, and it took a long time for him to look up at the High Priest. The high priest was still kneeling on the ground, his body was half decayed, and he knelt on the ground for a long time, not only his arms were shaking, but sweat was constantly oozing from his forehead.
"I ......," said Ingres, after saying the first syllable, paused for a long time before continuing, "I don't know if I can keep my promise, but give me a week and I'll try it." ”
"If it really doesn't work, when I return to the wizarding organization, I'll consult my mentor. If he has a way, I will come back again. ”
Ingres didn't say anything, but there was still a glimmer of hope in the High Priest's eyes. He has lived for a thousand years, and the most reassuring thing is his own people. If there is a tribe that can obtain absolute freedom, then he is at least at ease.
"Thank you, sir. The high priest's forehead touched the ground with a long stretch, and a puddle of water smeared from where he kowtowed, and I don't know if it was his sweat or tears.
After a long while, the high priest stood up, wiped the tears from his face, and bowed reverently, "My lord, you are back now, does the festival need to be held now?"
Ingres nodded: "An hour later, it will be in the Centennial Palace." ”
When the high priest heard this, he hurriedly withdrew, for the time was too fast, and he had to go back to the temple at once to prepare for everything.
After the High Priest left, Shadow said, "Are you really going to Isabelle? Once she agreed, the opportunity and compensation she said to you would probably be gone. ”
"I didn't expect anything in the first place, so it doesn't matter if I have it. Ingres's mentality is very relaxed: "What I'm most afraid of is that he doesn't make a request, and the longer he owes a favor, the more he will be a thorn in his heart." I think it's good that he can make this request right away, even if it's hard to achieve. At the very least, you can quickly clear up the two feelings. ”
The Shadow pondered for a moment, and felt that Angel was right. The lifespan of a wizard is too long, and the more powerful he gets, the more difficult it will be to face human favors. Now the High Priest's request is only to ensure that the Kurakuka will not be extinct, and perhaps in the future his request is to protect the Kurakuka people, or simply to oppose the Black Castle. At that time, it will be even more difficult to repay the favor debt.
The two chatted for a while, and there was a knock on the door outside the hall, and the priest asked to see him.
Angel glanced at the shadows, "I'll leave it to you." ”
With that, Ingres hid his figure. The shadow also hidden, manipulating Fiona to face the group of selection priests.
Manipulated by the puppet of the Shadow, Fiona's performance deceived all the priests and ordered a few inconsequential things in ambiguous words, and the Shadow made Fiona go upstairs under the pretext of being unwell.
In the hall, the knights and craftsmen began to set up the selection grounds.
An hour later, the knights and craftsmen departed. A simple but exquisite stage that reveals ingenuity is set up in the open space of the hall.
Then, the high priest led a choir of nearly 100 people into the hall.
The priests lined up and greeted the high priest with the greatest ceremonial ceremony.
At the same time, Fiona also walked down from the second floor, looking bored and looking for a place to sit. Eyes swept over the choir, and the women lowered their heads.
"High Priest, come here. Fiona stretched out her hand, and the transparent silk threads, built a bridge, and landed in front of the high priest.
The priests looked at each other, and this was the first time this kind of opening had begun. And in the past, the high priest always stood on the temple on the top of the hill to preside over the ceremony, but he didn't expect to be welcomed by the advent today?
Naturally, it was the Shadows that brought the High Priest over.
As soon as the high priest took his seat, an illusion was placed in front of him. When he turned around, he found Ingres and the Shadow sitting nearby.
"A hallucination that can confuse their eyes, they can't see the specifics here. After Ingres finished explaining to the high priest, he said, "Where is the secret treasure that you said can purify the soul?"
The high priest stretched out his hand, and a white aura visible to the naked eye bubbled out of his hand.
As the aura of the gods materialized, a small object appeared in the high priest's hand, and the high priest threw it lightly, and the object grew larger and larger, and finally when it floated into the air, it had reached its normal size.
"Big or small?" Ingres looked at the object carefully, "At least it's an advanced alchemy item." ”
It is a black disc of an unknown material.
From the outside, there is nothing special, and there is a thick coating on the disc, which hides a lot of patterns.
Angel wanted to stretch out his hand to touch it carefully, but the high priest said, "The secret treasure has the mark of the Empress, except for me, anyone who touches it will be perceived by the Empress." ”
The so-called queen in his mouth is not Isabelle, but her disciple Isabella. He is now the ruler of Castle Black.
Isabella has a strange obsession with her mentor, and not only changes her name, but also her name. However, the nickname "Queen of Twilight" was given to herself by Isabella after Isabel left the wizarding world, and she was suspected of taking advantage of Isabel.
Angel withdrew her hand anyway, Isabella was too crazy to return to Castle Black without regard if he had access to this secret treasure. Who knows what will change.
Since you can't touch it directly, you can only observe it with the naked eye.
There is no trace of magic patterns on the disc, and it is estimated that it is "blended alchemy". The materials can't be distinguished, and Angels doesn't have much research on blended alchemy, so he can't figure out why he can't figure it out for a while.
But Ingres felt it carefully, and noticed a subtle familiar fluctuation on the disk.
It's very similar to the mysterious power he manipulated not long ago.
He looked at the shadow, which looked thoughtful.
"It's supposed to be something mysterious, and I feel a hint of mystery. The Shadow whispered.
Angel hesitated for a moment, and nodded: "It should be, but there is not much mysterious power." If, according to the High Priest, this is a prop that can be combined into one, then it may be a truly mysterious thing when combined. ”
Now, the level of mystical power in the single half piece is about the same as the revolver he had just refined.
Since this half of the mysterious thing can "purify the soul", then ...... Angel began to look forward to the mysterious qualities of the revolver he had refined.
