Chapter 427: I'm a gunslinger with no feelings
If the soul trial has to take place, let me take her place. ”
As soon as these words came out, all the women present were stunned, and even Eloy, who had always been as calm as a mountain, changed their faces. Only Ezreal, who couldn't figure out the situation, scratched his hair in confusion.
"Don't you think about it!" Sarah hurriedly pressed her lips close to Jeno's ear and whispered dissuasion.
She originally wanted to use her feminine charm to influence Jeno to escape the temple with her under the double inducement of her words and deeds, and completely tear her face with Aloy.
She can't care so much about what kind of turbulent waves this will set off in Bilgewater in the future, so she will save her life first and then make plans.
But Jeno's words directly disrupted her plan, and she began to wonder if it was because she was emitting too many hormones that caused Jeno to be a little overhead, so that Jeno acted so impulsively and irrationally.
Then she inevitably thought about what Chong Guan was angry about, although she was very moved, but she still felt that Jeno's idea was too stupid.
After all, she is not a beautiful snake who wants men to fall under her pomegranate skirt and sacrifice herself to die for love in order to fulfill her.
However, it turned out that she was thinking too much, in fact, Jeno had coveted the soul trial for a long time.
Naga Kapoloth's soul trial was a life and death test to others, but to Jeno, who had a strong soul and was gifted, it was more like a promotion test, and he dared to conclude that this soul trial would definitely bring him many benefits.
So even if Aloy doesn't ask Sarah to participate in the trial, he will find a way to get Aloy's attention and win himself the opportunity to participate in the trial.
"You don't care so much." Jeno elbowed Sarah away indifferently, causing the latter to cover his heart and grumble all over his face.
"Aloy, Sarah is just the one I pushed to the surface, I was involved in the fight against the Night of the Eclipse, and the statue of Hekarim left in Pickpocket's Square is my masterpiece, a powerful necromancer that you can't defeat head-on. If that's how you judge someone else's denomination for a trial, I think I'm more qualified than she is. ”
Jeno broke free of Sarah's hands and stood in front of Aloy, staring at her without fear.
This left Sarah in a dilemma, as she wanted to escape the trial and didn't want Jeno, a partner who couldn't find a lantern, to take the risk.
For a while, a thousand words were blocked in my heart, but I couldn't say anything.
Looking at the two people in the middle of the temple, Ezreal approached Sarah and asked quietly, "Eh, can you tell me what happened?" What exactly do you mean by soul trial? ”
Sarah, who was in an impetuous mood, glanced back at Ezreal's slightly childish face, and immediately sent it impatiently: "Didn't you see that the old lady is annoying?" When you're done with your homework, come to such a dangerous place, and hide for me. ”
After training this ignorant little child, Sarah was much more relaxed, and she also understood that she could not do anything, so she could only hold the amulet behind her and silently pray for Jeno.
Ezreal shrank his neck as soon as he was reprimanded, and immediately pulled his face down, took two steps back and sulked with his arms folded, thinking that the Bilgewater woman was worse than the Zuan.
And Aloy here can't make up her mind for a while, she has never heard of such a strange request, and there are even gentlings who take the initiative to ask to participate in the trial.
Even if they are replaced, generally only those who want to compete for high-level priesthood will want to prove that they are qualified to become the most devout believers of Naga Kapolos by passing the trial, and get the recognition and support of the clan in the priesthood competition.
This is also the fact that Aloy has long become the true one who controls the divine power and bows down to the person, while the older middle-aged woman next to her is only a second-level person, but the power is very different.
It is precisely because Eloy fearlessly participated in and passed the soul trial, but the person next to him has managed to survive to this position by virtue of his qualifications.
If the effort is not equal, the achievement will not be equal.
But this is the first time she has seen such an example.
"Aloy, what's the point of hesitation? Am I far better suited than Sarah to the trial in terms of merit, or is there a subjective element to the selection of your candidates? You chose Sarah because she threw your old friend into the sea with one shot? ”
Seeing that Aloy was silent, Jeno added another fire to the fire, trying to ignite her anger.
"Everything moves, and Naga Kapoulos doesn't take sides!" The speaker immediately took over the topic, she wanted to take the hand of Eloy, so that the despicable heretic in front of her would be annihilated and vent her evil anger.
"It is precisely because I have no grudge against that person that I can better prove the fairness of Ms. Beard by letting me, an outsider, participate in the trial! If I pass the Soul Trial, maybe I'll make a prosthetic leg and thank you, you can give it to Planck, I won't mind. As he spoke, Jeno patted his left arm: "This is Piltover's high-tech, you can't buy it in Bilgewater, it's the best for Planck." ”
Eloi is not without a temper.
Jeno's sneer at Planck fell to her ears as sharp as a knife, which made her mindset change somewhat.
Is Jeno, who is also disabled, qualified to taunt Planck? When Planck went to loot the Noxus warship, I was afraid that the clamoring boy in front of him had not yet been born!
At the same time, the messenger kept instigating her in her ear, so that she could solve the big problem in front of her through the trial. If Jeno is not addressed, the supremacy of the Mother Serpent faith in Bilgewater will surely be shaken.
"Then let me test whether you are qualified to speak wildly!" Under the influence of many factors, Aloy was emboldened and reached out to push Jeno to the ground.
Jeno wasn't angry, but had some anticipation.
He was half-lying on the ground, his eyes wide open at Aloy, who was high above.
She stretched out her spirit, calling on the energy of the Mother Serpent and waving the idol forward.
A glowing green mist poured out of the idol's mouth, and a swirl of blue-green energy surrounded the face of the mother snake, and the energy gradually materialized, turning into spirit tentacles, bubbling as it grew.
Against the backdrop of gold, these tentacles are as beautiful as the sunrise on the surface of the sea, and at the same time as terrifying as the darkest abomination of the sea.
Tentacles continue to grow out of the idol, as if they are multiplying with some incomprehensible mathematical rule. They swelled and grew exponentially, as if every tentacle could hold the hopes and fears of the world.
Jeno sensed that reality was distorting, but he didn't have the slightest fear, his eyes staring at the surging green light emitted by the gods, as if he was desperate to get a glimpse of it.
"This is the first lesson, your soul is detained by me, if you have the ability, come and take it away!"
With a chant from Aloy, a spirit tentacle went straight through Jeno's chest, dragging his soul out!
Jeno gladly accepted it all and smiled.
At the moment, he is a gunslinger who has no feelings, just come on for the test or something!
