137. Semi-prophet Ann Gess
The Earl didn't expect Yang Xiang to be able to take things out so quickly, but he knew how terrifying the idol knight guarding that kind of thing was, and the adventurer in front of him couldn't be stronger than his troops at all. The Earl didn't figure out the reason, and Yang Xiang didn't give the Earl much time to think, the sooner he handed over the Kaleido-Stone to Holden, he could return to Endor City as soon as possible, and the judgment day of Breed was getting closer and closer, and Yang Xiang had to meet Breed again before the Judgment Day came.
The reward that the earl gave to Yang Xiang was really as Yang Xiang thought, it was too picky, only a gold coin and a level 40 tabula rasa, but Yang Xiang didn't think that the earl would give him any good reward, and it was already the best result to get the last letter of recommendation.
The Marquis of Holden is a place not far south of Eagle Bird City, surrounded by several small villages, surrounded by the marquis's red iron castle and obelisk, the marquis generally only stays in the castle, and will only go out when necessary, unlike the marquise, the marquise is not necessary to stay in the castle, but the marquise will still come back at night, so as not to provoke gossip.
The Marquis would go to the surrounding villages every day to learn about the situation, not in the face and identity of the Marquis, of course. On this day, the marquis came to one of the villages, there was a stranger in the village, although the marquis did not know everyone in the village, but he could still recognize the appearance of the village, and this person, he had no impression at all.
This man did not stay in the village for long, and he wanted the Marquis to leave the village and walk directly towards the Red Iron Fort after asking the Marquis about the direction of the Red Iron Castle. He had come to find him, and the Marquis knew the man's destination, but what his purpose was, the Marquis did not yet know. The Marquis also left the village after the man had left, and walked on the way back to the castle.
Yang Xiang came to the Red Iron Castle and looked up at the outer wall of the castle whose entire faΓ§ade was made of molten iron, Yang Xiang did not feel new, because he had already been here in his previous life, and as a player who supported the Marquis's side in that battle, he had been allowed to enter here.
However, this life has not been allowed for the time being, and Yang Xiang was stopped by the two soldiers guarding the gate before he walked to the gate of the castle, "What are you here for, don't you know that this is the Red Iron Fort of the Marquis of Halton?" The soldier shouted at Yang Xiang loudly, and Yang Xiang didn't bother to care too much when he saw the soldier's arrogant appearance.
Yang Xiang took out the letter of recommendation and said to the two soldiers, "I was recommended by Earl Keane to come here to meet the Marquis of Holden, please inform me." Yang Xiang's words were very polite, and the letter of recommendation in his hand was indeed that of the Earl of Keane, and the soldiers recognized that the fire paint on the letter was the coat of arms of the Earl's family.
The soldiers didn't dare to snub such a person, they were just the lowest-level soldiers guarding the door, so that even the soldier who was originally arrogant stood up straight, and didn't dare to have any disdain for Yang Xiang anymore.
"Drive, huh." A two-horse carriage drove through the avenue, and the soldiers did not stop the carriage and ran straight to the castle gates.
"Who's in the carriage?" Yang Xiang still retains his politeness.
The soldier glanced at Yang Xiang and said a little incredulously, "The person inside is the person you are looking for." β
As soon as the soldier said this, Yang Xiang understood that the eyes of the emotional soldier were looking at a fool.
The soldiers who entered the report also came out, and the soldiers signaled that Yang Xiang could go into the hall to wait for the summons of the marquis, and Yang Xiang went in directly after thanking him, the hall was very wide, and the tone and layout outside the castle were similar, and there were metal products on the walls on all sides, not only swords, shields and guns, but also a piece of iron.
Yang Xiang sat on a bench in the hall, and the busy people in the castle didn't notice Yang Xiang, a stranger, as if he didn't exist.
This situation didn't last long, a middle-aged man who looked like a housekeeper came to Yang Xiang, he looked at Yang Xiang from a downward look, very arrogant, "You are the one who came here with a letter of recommendation from Earl Keane?" The housekeeper didn't ask Yang Xiang's name, he just confirmed whether Yang Xiang was the one who held the letter of recommendation, in his eyes, it didn't matter who Yang Xiang was, as long as Yang Xiang had a letter of recommendation in his hand.
Yang Xiang replied yes, and the housekeeper took Yang Xiang into a room, and there was no one in the room. The housekeeper didn't go in after taking Yang Xiang to this room, and after waiting for Yang Xiang to enter, he closed the door and left, leaving Yang Xiang to wait alone.
What is the difference between waiting here and waiting in the hall, Yang Xiang thought at this time, but after seeing the decorations in the room, he knew that this might be the marquis's reception room, and there was a huge deer head specimen on the wall facing the door, and there were two swords on both sides of the window, a double-edged sword that shone red to symbolize war, and a ceremonial sword that flashed golden to symbolize peace, both swords were not placed in the scabbard, allowing the environment to destroy them.
Babbling, the door opened again, and a tall man walked in, the awe-inspiring momentum of the man's statue-like face gave Yang Xiang a sense of familiarity, this familiarity was not because Yang Xiang had seen him in the previous life, but more like the two had only met not long ago.
"You're Yang Xiang, right?" The marquis began a conversation between the two, "I'm sorry, I'm just back in the castle, I have to take care of some things before I have time to come." β
The Marquis's tone was very gentle, which was really a bit inconsistent with his appearance, but this was just the usual Marquis of Holden, and he didn't look like the same person at all on the battlefield.
"Show me Keane's letter, I need to know why he recommended you to see me, you know, I'm not easy for anyone to see."
"I understand that, Lord Marquis." Yang Xiang handed the earl's letter to the marquis, and the marquis's originally calm expression suddenly became nervous after reading the contents of the letter, and he didn't seem to know whether to be happy or worried.
"I don't know how to explain my mood at the moment, but you're bringing good news, isn't it." The marquis motioned for Yang Xiang to follow him, and the two of them came to another room, this was a room inside the obelisk, and there was a person in the room, it was a woman, she was smoking a pipe at the moment and closing her eyes and thinking about something.
"It's finally waiting for you, adventurer." The woman didn't open her eyes, but she seemed to know who was coming, and when the woman opened her eyes, Yang Xiang saw her eyes clearly, a pair of eyes with iron yellow pupils, and the whites of the eyes were covered with bloodshots, "I've been waiting for you for a long time, so long that I can't sleep!" β
"This is the Warlock who once told me that she could use something to help me resurrect someone, and she calls herself the Semi-Prophet Aegis." The marquis introduced the woman to Yang Xiang, and at the same time introduced Yang Xiang to the woman, on the way over, Yang Xiang had already explained his identity to the marquis, "This is ......"
"I know I know that the Guru has told me his name and that he will lead us against the scourge and remove the source of the scourge." The woman named Angels interrupted the Marquis's introduction, the Marquis's expression was a little displeased, but he didn't say anything, Angels grabbed Yang Xiang's shoulders tightly, her iron-yellow pupils were facing Yang Xiang's brown and black pupils, "Adventurer, do you remember me?" β
Adventurer, you can remember me.
In the end, Aegis still failed, and Yang Xiang couldn't recall anything and her memories at all, because there was no such memory at all. After Yang Xiang took out the Ten Thousand Flower Stone, Aegis was asking the Marquis, which one the Marquis wanted to resurrect, sister or sister, there was only one place.
"Which one do you think I should resurrect, adventurer?" The Marquis consulted Yang Xiang, because he was already undecided, and now he needed an outsider to make this decision for him.
"It's better if the two of them are not resurrected, let the kaleidolites continue to be kaleidolites, and let the people who have died continue to stay where they should be, their souls have been separated for too long, and their minds are about to disappear, is such a person still the person you want, the marquis?" Yang Xiang spread out his hands, and he handed the kaleidolite to the marquis, but the marquis did not take it.
The Marquis was silent, although he had thought of this result a long time ago, but if he really had to accept it, he would be a little sleepy for a while. As Yang Xiang said, they are already dead, and if they continue to die, let them stay where they should be, he just wants to resurrect them because of some kind of longing that is more than love, and it is a bit ridiculous in retrospect.
When the marquis was silent, Angels pulled Yang Xiang to talk, talking about those past memories, she seemed to want to evoke the memories that Yang Xiang might lose, but unfortunately, Yang Xiang was still the same Yang Xiang, there were no so-called lost memories, but Angels was not discouraged, she said to Yang Xiang, "Then you may know my mentor." β
"Who is your mentor?" Yang Xiang could only respond to Aegis like this, but Yang Xiang didn't really know the mentor who counted on Aegis's mouth, this was Eagle Bird City, not Endor City, Yang Xiang didn't even know a few NPCs, let alone know a mentor of a semi-prophet.
"You're going to know her." "No one knows her name, but her title is 'Ye', and everyone else calls her the Great Prophet Ye." β
Great Prophet Ye, this name Yang Xiang really hasn't heard of, is it because of the butterfly effect caused by the crossing, it is very likely. But speaking of Ye Zi, Yang Xiang really sounded a person, one of the two people who wanted him to come into this game, that is, his mother.
If this Great Prophet Ye is Yang Xiang's mother, then Yang Xiang really has to ask Aegis about this Great Prophet this time.
