Chapter 212: Belief is yes, and unbelief is not

However, this castle is wonderful, although it can change the size of the object, it does not change the strength of the matter.

This is very unscientific.

But isn't magic a force that is contrary to science?

Fortunately, Rowan's strength was strong enough, and the finger he pierced into the castle from the outside still crushed the magical creature with the head of a sheep and a snake!

Although this is also because the magic creature is strong on the outside, at least from the momentum point of view, the poking of such a big finger is still very scary!

Count Frank, who was about to manipulate the magical creature to attack the barrier, was frightened by this huge finger when he turned around!

This time, Rowan didn't have the leisure to pretend to be a demon god to scare people, he directly asked in a thunderous voice: "Count Frank, do you remember the owner of the Fire Tavern on East Main Street?" ”

Count Frank's expression changed slightly, how could he not remember the tavernkeeper, since he was suddenly sent into this castle by the "Zephyr", he guessed that it was mostly related to the tavernkeeper.

After all, tonight, he only ordered his subordinates to attack such a person.

Now, it seems, is it a failure?

So, what about his subordinates?

Count Frank thought of his own assassins who had spent a great deal of time and money to cultivate, and his heart ached beyond words.

He looked up at the tavern owner above him who seemed to have turned into a giant, and suddenly asked in a heart-rending voice, "What about the west wind?" Did he betray me? Although I Frank has few cruel words, I never owe anything to my subordinates. Let him tell me in person, why did he betray me! ”

This is certainly not a useless act, and once Zephyr does appear, Frank is confident that Zephyr will rebel again and join his side.

When the time comes, he will not only be able to understand the current strange situation, but also have the opportunity to take advantage of the situation to turn the tables!

But then, Rowan chuckled, and suddenly reached out in front of him and wiped it on his face.

In an instant, his face changed to that of Zephyr, and he winked at Count Frank.

Frank's heart withered with the appearance of that faceβ€”he felt hopeless.

Rowan turned back to his face and asked him, "Life or death, which do you choose?" ”

Count Frank frowned, trying to make a final struggle: "Let me go back, there is no hatred between you and me, right?" You shouldn't have anything to do with Countess Safi, right? ”

Rowan sighed: "But now there is." ”

Count Frank immediately spread out his hands and said loudly, "That's just a misunderstanding!" As long as you let me go back, I can compensate you! Whether it's money, treasure, or womanhood, I can give it to you! ”

"Forget it." Rowan said nonchalantly, "Why don't you tell me, what kind of conspiracy are you planning?" ”

Frank's face did not change: "Where did the word conspiracy come from?" ”

Rowan: "You sent someone to assassinate me because of the Countess." I'm curious to know now, what did you assassinate the Countess for? ”

Frank said in a deep voice, "Why ask? For power and money, of course! A decadent family like that only one woman can be in charge of the house should have been buried by history a long time ago! ”

Rowan looked at his expression and couldn't help but sigh: "Who are you going to fool with these words?" Let me tell you, this man, learn to give up. You see, you're like this now. No matter how long you wait, no matter how long you wait, no one will be able to find you. And maybe, a finger will poke down from the sky in the next second and directly poke you to death. Is it so interesting to bring the secret to the coffin? ”

Frank's face darkened by what he said, but he was clearly not prepared to tell the plot he was planning.

Rowan: "Really, not going to say? ”

Frank shook his head.

Rowan: "Really, really, not going to say? Even if I promise to let you go, you won't say anything? ”

Frank gritted his teeth and shook his head firmly.

Luo Wen immediately clapped his hands and said, "Oak, I understand, there is someone behind you who is instructing." ”

Frank's face changed dramatically.

Rowan continued to sigh: "This one after another, when will it be its turn? You say, 'Shall I give you to the Countess of Safi as a gift?' Or should you just be thrown to feed the dogs? ”

Beanie: MMP.

Frank remained silent.

Rowan: "Do you have a wife, son, and daughter at home?" ”

At this, Count Frank finally smiled, and for the first time since he was imprisoned in the castle, he showed a smug smile.

Then, I heard him smirk: "Hehe, do you think that I, Count Frank, will leave myself with such an obvious weakness?" ”

Rowan: "It turned out to be a 10,000-year-old single dog. ”

Beanie: MMP.

Frank continued to sneer.

Rowan sighed deeply, he didn't remember how many times he sighed, but this time his sigh was a sigh.

He suddenly said, "I said, you are so proud that you even leaked your tail, haven't you noticed it all along?" ”

Hearing the word "tail", Frank finally reacted, and almost immediately jumped and spun and looked behind him.

But Rowan had already reached inside and pinched the tip of his tail with two fingers!

"A mouse."

Rowan sneered, then pinched the tip of Frank's tail and shook it violently.

In an instant, Frank's body began to change from the tail, and he turned from a middle-aged count with a serious face to a black mouse with a fat head and big ears!

It's a little bit of an incredible change.

Fernandi is a nezumi, but Count Frank's form is obviously different from the nezumi, it is a fat mouse, except for two thin dark red horns on the top of its head, its appearance is exactly like a mouse!

"That's the secret you're going to hide?" Rowan said coldly.

Earl Frank...... Frank Mouse screamed violently, "Squeak! ”

It seems that after it turned back into a mouse, it couldn't even speak.

Rowan was about to ask again, but a crimson fire suddenly lit up above the dark red horn of Frank's mouse.

And Frank Mouse also seemed to feel the sudden flames burning on the horns, and it was not afraid of death at all, but at this moment it struggled violently.

Rowan threw it to the ground, and it tumbled to its feet, scrambling out a mess from under its fur.

But in the time it was taking, the crimson flames on its horns were burning more and more fiercely, and in the blink of an eye, they had burned to its scalp.

It let out a squeaky squeak of fear, and finally found what it was looking for in the pileβ€”the soft pebble-like crystal that had been used to summon the magical creatures in the first place.

The moment it got its hands on the crystal, it began to chant mantras frantically, and desperately shoved the crystal into its mouth.

However, when it was halfway through its movements, the crimson flames suddenly erupted, and before it could react, its entire body was covered in the erupting flames.

Ten seconds later, all that remained of the place where Frank Mouse had been standing was a puddle of ashes.

After seeing all this, after Luo Wen sighed for the Nth time today, he reached out and picked up the only remaining crystal in the field, and gradually had an idea in his heart.

"It's a demon."

There are gods in this world, and naturally there are demons opposite to the gods.

Demons are all sorts of strange things, they may be in human form or dragon form, and the only thing they have in common is the horns on their heads.

But every demon has horns!

"Reasoning along the lines of what I wrote. The prototype of this Count Frank is a mouse, and the rat has two horns on its head, and those two horns contain demonic flames, and once Frank shows the prototype, the flames on the horns will burst out and burn it out. As for the real Count Frank...... Maybe there were, or maybe there never were. None of this is the point. The point is...... Am I caught in a bigger vortex again? Demon? Lying in the sky! Can't you just let people live in peace? ”

Rowan felt like he was about to collapse, and the only thing he hoped for now was that the so-called "demons" didn't notice him.

But this hope is clearly extravagant.

"No, what needs to be confirmed now is, is there really a demon in this world? Maybe this Frank rat is actually just a special monster with horns? I'll have to go find someone and ask for clarification. ”

And among the people who can be asked......

"Speaking of which, isn't the short old man who helped me last night a man with a lot of experience?"

Thinking like this, Rowan took the crystal, walked out of the kennel, and looked up at the sky.

"It's already this time period, I haven't slept since last night, and today's time miracle hasn't been summoned......"

Shaking his head, Rowan turned and left the Mist World, then walked out of the tavern's seclusion and looked into the lobby.

Despite all the things that happened to Rowan, the Flame Girl Tavern was still stable, and this kind of ordinary daily life was especially precious, and people couldn't help but want to cherish it.

And in the reading corner of the tavern, it is rare for someone to flip through books today.

Rowan looked at it slightly, and then walked over slowly.

Those two were none other than the two guests who had helped him last night, a beautiful Miss Dark Elf and a venerable little old man.

The old man's limbs weren't thick, so Rowan didn't mistake him for a dwarf.

When he got closer, Rowan found that the old man was reading "Journey to the West", and Miss Dark Elf was reading the "One Piece" manga.

It's One Piece again......

Rowan grinned slightly, and greeted the two of them separately.

Both of them are frequent diners at the tavern, with Miss Dark Elf's name being "Freya" and the short old man's surname being "Black".

Since the old man introduced himself like this, Rowan pretended to have heard of the surname "Hei" and respectfully called him Hei Lao.

Although Hei Lao is short, he is a very bold person, with a big belly and a lot of alcohol and energy.

Miss Freya, on the other hand, is a girl who loves beauty and fashion, and it is said that her greatest wish is to find a secret treasure or magic that can turn her skin white.

Rowan remembered his soap, and thought about giving her a small piece when she left, but he didn't know if the soap could wash black skin into white skin?

But since you can wash yellow skin into white skin, black skin should also work, right?

Rowan thought very casually, and served the two guests to the table.

It's just that after the table, they are still reading books on their ownβ€”and they seem to be completely fascinated.

Rowan took a sip of water, waited patiently, and took advantage of this time to sort out the experience from late night to early morning.

"Boss, are you worried?" Hei Lao seemed to have finished reading a short section before suddenly noticing Rowan pondering and asked.

Rowan opened his eyes and sighed to show that he was tired.

Then, he simply took this opportunity to ask the question in his heart: "Hei Lao, do you say that there are really demons in this world?" ”

"Demons?"

Hei Lao's eyes lit up, obviously interested.

He spread out "Journey to the West" on the table, pointed to the pages, and said, "The so-called demons are not the same thing as the demonized orcs (monsters) in this book?" In the final analysis, it is just an alien race with long horns. ”

Rowan frowned: "So, demons do exist?" ”

Hei Lao Ruo smiled meaningfully: "Of course." We humans are in the habit of branding unrecognized, incomprehensible, and communicative creatures as xenomorphs. And the devil, in fact, comes from this. For example, the dragon that we often refer to today was actually called 'demon' a long, long time ago. But when we got to know the dragon, we separated the dragon from the 'demon' genre and called it the 'dragon'! ”

Rowan realized a little, and then asked casually: "Since demons exist, what about gods?" ”

Hei Lao was noncommittal: "It depends on whether you have faith or not." The same creatures are called gods by some and demons by others. Do you understand? ”

"Got it."

Rowan nodded solemnly.

This black old man has been around for a long time, and it seems that he is acknowledging the existence of demons and gods, but in fact, he has been saying that there is no such thing as demons and gods.

If you believe, you will have, and if you don't believe, you will not.

"It seems that this black old man is an untrustworthy person!"

At the same time, Rowan did have some enlightenment.

He realized that he didn't need to worry about whether the demon existed or not.

The so-called demons are, at best, a group of monsters that must have horns and special abilities.

Just as he was thinking about this, the dark elf Freya raised her head and complimented: "Boss, your book with both pictures and words is really beautiful, has it been placed here before?" ”

Rowan nodded.

The dark elf suddenly sighed, "It really has been here all along. I just hate that I've been here so many times and I haven't noticed the books there! ”

Hearing this, Luo Wenluo's heart suddenly moved, and he said, "What did you just say?" Can you repeat that? ”

Although the dark elf was puzzled, he still repeated, "It really has been here all along. Hate me only ......"

"By the way, this is it!"

Rowan clapped his hands violently, and finally understood what he had been feeling wrong all along, what it was!
