Chapter 388: The Stone of Light
Nie Yan was a little touched in his heart, although he had experienced all kinds of situations in his previous life, he still couldn't treat everything indifferently. He looked regretful and continued listening.
"I was drunk outside, Aina, I was wrong, and I would spend the rest of my life confessing my sins, but, when I got home, Aina was stuck on a beam with a rope, and she was quiet, as if in a deep sleep. Her face was pale and poignant, and she chose to make a silent accusation against me in this way. Aina, why don't you wait for me to come back, why! We still have Nia, we still have home! But no matter how much I shouted, Aina would never wake up and leave this world with resentment towards me. God, how can I be saved! Nya took my hand and asked me, is my mother asleep? Count Kerfield looked remorseful, and he wept bitterly, and wept silently.
Nie Yan saw Earl Kerfield's tearful appearance, and sighed in his heart, he knew this was the case, why bother in the first place.
"One day, Pexins suddenly found me with a blood-stained dagger, this crazy woman, what did she do! She killed Nya! She said to me that from now on, there will be no more obstacles between us, we can be together, she can give me a child, give me a home. This woman, she has lost her mind, what a murderous thing she has done! Enraged, I stabbed her to death with a sword, this vicious woman! And yet Nya, she also left me, she is an innocent child! Many years later, I finally understood a truth, in fact, home, the moment you did something wrong, can never be reached! I ruined it with my own hands, it was my sin, and looking back, I was alone, and the pain was destined to stay with me for the rest of my life. ”
In fact, home, the moment you did something wrong, can never be reached! Earl Kerfield's words touched Nie Yan deeply, everyone has a demon in their hearts, when you do something wrong, you will go further and further, make mistakes again and again, and finally regret yourself for life.
"Why don't you leave this castle and start a new life?" Nie Yan said, why did Earl Kerfield insist on staying here, this was one of the clues of the mission he had just dug up, and he took the opportunity to ask.
"Aina and Nia are buried in the flower fields below, and I will guard them. One evening, a man in a black cloak passed by my castle, and he gave me something and told me that if I gave it to that person, my sins would be forgiven, and the curse of the castle would be removed. I asked him who he wanted to give it to, but he didn't answer, and I stayed in this castle for thirty years, as if it had been a thousand years, until you appeared, and I suddenly understood. Earl Kerfield said, and his withered hands dug into his pockets for a long time, and then he found a strange stone, which was as white as a tooth, about the size of a thumb. He gave it to me, and if you take it, you can find what you're looking for. ”
Nie Yan stretched out his hand and took the stone, it was as crystal as jade, exuding a warm white light, giving people a refreshing warmth.
He looked at the caste of the stone.
Stone of Light: Demand, Will 60.

"Thank you, Dear Earl of Kerfield, for telling me all this." Nie Yan said, it seems that this long task will continue forever.
A glimpse of darkness is a condition that triggers the quest, and this stone of light is the clue that leads to the quest!
Count Kerfield smiled with relief and said, "Give it to you, and my mission will be accomplished, and I will have no attachment to this world, warrior, and may courage and faith be with you." ”
Nie Yan could feel that after the Stone of Light left Count Kerfield, the vitality of life was gradually fading from his body, and his withered face was aging at an extremely fast rate.
Militia Brecon and Militia Bernard had sad expressions, knowing that time was running out for Earl Kerfield.
The Count of Kerfield looked into the void, his gaze lost focus, and he muttered to himself: "I have heard the call of the Father, friends, please do not grieve for me, this moment I can finally atone for my sins, I will depart like the wind, may the Holy Light shine on the earth, may there be no more regrets and regrets in the world." ”
The Earl's body slowly dissolved in the air, and a soul slowly floated up and towards the window.
The Earl of Kerfield's body vanished, and a book was left behind, silently on the chaise longue.
This is an ancient book, Nie Yan picked it up and looked at it, it was a book of prayers, on which many prayers were recorded, and for a long time, the Earl of Kerfield kept chanting these prayers to atone for his sins.
The book is written in the ancient lingua franca, and there are several large gilded letters, the Holy Light Prayer.
Just an ordinary prop, useless, a small pendant chain is sandwiched inside the book, the top of the pendant chain falls a light blue gem, with metal borders, it looks beautiful, its edge is written in the ancient lingua franca with a line of small words: May the penitent be redeemed, may the world be happy.
Nie Yan took a look at the surname of this pendant chain.
Holy Light Pendant (Dark Gold): Requires Focus 30.
Surname: HP +500, all Holy Light magic levels +1.
Exclusive: Used by the Mage of the Holy Word.
It is the item of the Holy Word Mage, seeing all the Holy Light magic level +1 this surname, Nie Yan was excited, this Holy Light Necklace is definitely much more valuable than some ordinary sub-legendary-level items. The caste of a lot of equipment changes randomly, and the probability of hitting all magic levels +1 is small and small.
It's something from the Holy Word Mage, he can't use it, so he thought about it for a while, give it to Xie Yao.
Xie Yao's equipment is second only to him in the Cattle Tribe, and with his outstanding strength and beautiful appearance, Xie Yao has become one of the goddess-level figures admired by everyone in the Cattle Tribe. The most dazzling beauties of the Niuren tribe, Xie Yao, One Hammer Love, Ten Miles of Painted Yarn, Yue'er, Yulan, etc., each has its own merits and is difficult to distinguish.
Thinking of Xie Yao, the softest place in Nie Yan's heart was touched.
Nie Yan threw the Holy Light Pendant into his backpack, it was almost time to leave here, and he didn't know what new clues would come next.
Suddenly, Nie Yan felt the Holy Light Stone in his backpack tremble, and he was shocked, took out the Holy Light Stone, and performed a search skill, and the coordinate map showed that a part of the Talent-Reading Arbuckle's suit was being left nearby.
"Brecken, Bernard, can you lead me around this castle?" Nie Yan looked at the militia Brecon and militia Bernard next to him, he was not familiar with this ancient castle, and letting the two militiamen lead the way would definitely get twice the result with half the effort.
"Yes, honorable Demon Slayer, University Scholar, Mr. Grand Thief." Militiaman Bracken said respectfully, "Please come with me." ”
Militia Bracken and militia Bernard began to lead Nie Yan towards the rest of the castle, Nie Yan felt that the more he entered the castle, the stronger the reaction of the Stone of Light became, and when he reached the intersection of the two corridors, Nie Yan looked at one of the corridors, there were dense rooms over there, the doors and walls were very dilapidated, and the ground was also full of dust, obviously no one had passed for a long time, and an iron fence was pulled on the corridor.
Brecon was about to take Nie Yan in another direction, when Nie Yan stopped and asked, "Why don't we go that way?" ”
Bracken explained: "The Earl of Kerfield had decreed that the area was a cursed land, and that two servants had died there in a horrible manner. So the Earl of Kerfield cordoned off that area, and no one dared to go there. It's a no-go zone. ”
After taking a look, the iron bar at the end of the corridor was made of ordinary metal, and there was no protective magic, and he swung the sword of Zeenard, only to see a bang, and the iron bar collapsed and flew out, shattering to the ground.
Nie Yan's actions startled militia Brecken and militia Bernard, the power of this sword is too strong.
"So we can go in." Nie Yan put away Zeenard's sword path, he walked towards this corridor, and for a long time, he was very surprised to see Brecon and Bernard behind him not moving, and turned his head and asked, "What's wrong with you?" ”
"The Earl of Kerfield has warned us not to enter this area, he is a respectable elder." Brecken was a little embarrassed.
"Then you should stay here for now." Nie Yan said, since Brecon said so, he understood that in the setting of the mission, Brecken and Bernard would not follow up.
Nie Yan has a very keen sense of the mission, and from every word of the NPC, he can immediately judge what the plot of the next mission is.
He walked towards the corridor in front of him, stepping on the planks of the hallway, which creaked and creaked farther and farther through the silent hallway, giving a sense of emptiness and distance.
The ground was covered with dust everywhere, and when he walked by, bursts of dust were raised, Nie Yan slowed down, and through the thick dust, he could vaguely see the blood stains remaining on the ground, which had turned black, and he didn't know how many years had passed.
From these blood stains, he could judge that this was left behind when a person was killed, as if he was targeted by something, and after biting to death, the body was dragged away, and blood flowed all over the ground.
There was a powerful dark aura left in this vicinity, and Nie Yan could be sure that there must be a powerful dark creature here.
