Chapter 424: There Are Thirty-One Days in August!

Sigma sat down on a bench outside the church and looked at the book that Clement had given him.

The Acting Pope sat quietly beside him, looking up at the cross at the top of the church, his eyes soft and full of memories, and occasionally Sigma asked a question, which he answered succinctly and forcefully...... Sigma has a lot of experience dealing with legendary powerhouses, and he still has basic eyesight, and Clement has no hiding at all.

There are all questions to be answered, and the method of explanation is simple and patient, and there is no arrogance of a legendary powerhouse at all...... You must know that Sigma's path to fighting qi only reached the bronze level, and he was captured by the necromancer before he could refine his fighting spirit, and he didn't get involved in the technical attack and high-level combat skills at all, and sometimes the questions raised were too naïve in the eyes of the legendary paladin of Clement - but even so, the acting pope did not have the slightest impatience.

Sigma also pondered what the hell this old creature was up to...... Clement's intentions were unclear to him, and they were simply unexpected. The Acting Pope's original intention was to keep an eye on him 24 hours a day, so that Sigma had no chance to play tricks at all, but now he actually carefully instructed and taught the necromancer with top-level martial arts and energy control techniques, and he did his best, without hiding any selfishness, not caring that Sigma might turn his head against him with what he taught.

But after thinking about it for a while, the necromancer didn't want to think about it, anyway, from Clement's mouth, he didn't want to ask anything, but there is absolutely no harm in learning these, the top goods of the Holy See, if you don't learn in vain, you can't learn in vain.

But...... After about an hour of answering your questions, Sigma couldn't sit still, because the Acting Pope seemed tired of the view from the top of the church. Instead of being intrigued by Uncle Sigma's handsome face, he had turned his head more than once to look at Sigma's side face. There was a hint of softness and inexplicable warmth in his calm eyes. This movement and this look made the necromancer feel like pins and needles.

After all...... After all, in the eyes of Sigma, who is super dirty, this kind of look means ...... Imply......

"Hmph, want to know why I'm so nice to you? You grinding little fresh meat......"

"Hmph, how powerful is this martial art? Do you like it? Want more? Hey, hey, hey, that's ......"

This kind of development is not to be grinning!!!!!!

The necromancer moved his ass a little further away from Clement, and the terrifying chemistry of his super-filthy mind and the immensity of his brain created a tidal wave of filthy thoughts, if Klement knew how to read minds like Tyrese. I'm afraid that at this time, I would already be so angry that I would raise my hand and kill this filthy bastard.

Clement noticed Sigma's movements, first stunned slightly, and then smiled bitterly: "I really didn't guess wrong...... You kid with too many eyes and a cunning kid will definitely get more and more uncomfortable, after all, this qiē is difficult to understand? ”

Sigma nodded calmly, "Absolutely...... Although the Lord of the River has a famous saying called making a fortune with a muffled voice, but the old man's gift of cheats must also be in accordance with the Basic Law, and we were still in tension before. And our relationship ...... Well, you know, there's something wonderful about it at times like these. You've done what you do......"

"The word "enemy" is not used well." Clement frowned, but quickly. His eyebrows furrowed, looking at the blue sky. The black clouds that overwhelmed the city a few days ago seemed to gather all the water vapor of the entire Holy Sword Province here. It was scattered to various places, so the weather in Cloudsdale was unexpectedly good in the past few days, the blue sky was like a wash, only the white clouds flowed and changed, and the flawless daylight and clear sky brought people a bright mood and full of hope.

The acting pope said lightly: "Sigma, whether you believe it or not, I don't regard you as an enemy, the enemy I have been fighting seems to be disembodied, but sometimes it can't be touched, and it exists in everyone's hearts......"

When he said this, he seemed to realize that he was talking too much, so he closed his mouth decisively, but the sincerity in his eyes was obvious, and the acting pope looked at the necromancer and said lightly: "Sigma...... As I said, I envy Sargeras for having a disciple like you, even if you are a necromancer who annoys me, I can't help but look forward to how far you can go in the future and what kind of achievements you can achieve......"

"I have had students, and I have taught many people, and I believe that the same is true of Sargeras, but the teaching between us is nothing more than influencing them with our experience, outlook on life, and way of thinking, so that they will unconsciously color us during their studies...... So they pass on our skills, our memories, our pretenses and our honors, and they follow our instructions and teachings and follow the path we have planned...... Such a student is, at best, a student. ”

He looked at Sigma and whispered, "But you're different...... Sargeras is not so much teaching you as watching you, and you always surprise and look forward to people, all of whom are looking forward to how far you can go on your path. It is not difficult to shape a student into the appearance that he is satisfied with, the difficult thing is to teach without guiding, and the difficult thing is to let go, especially for the legendary powerhouse, because the true disciple is often regarded by the teacher as a continuation of the qiē, and is given great expectations, expecting that the disciple who has been painstakingly cultivated will one day have achievements beyond the teacher. ”

"It's hard...... This is especially true for the legendary powerhouses who stand at the top of the world. ”

"But you have given Sargeras hope, you may become the person he will never become, your deep dislike of some necromancy, and your high opinion of necromancers, may mean that one day, you will be able to single-handedly lead the realm of death into a new era, and even free the necromancers from the inherent fear and evil feelings of the living beings towards them, and stand in the light of day, just like what you are doing now." The Acting Pope showed a faint smile, "Thanks to you, thanks to your continuous efforts, the favorability of some clergy in the Holy See towards the necromancer has greatly increased, and the people of Atlas should be proud of you." ”

When saying this. Clement looked at Sigma's eyes, full of appreciation and anticipation.

Maybe this stubborn old man with a bad temper and a lot of rules. There was no disgust with him as Sigma had imagined.

"I'm also looking forward to it and want to know how far you'll go. Want to know what kind of achievement you will achieve...... So I'm willing to teach you something, and by the way, add some sand to Sargeras, even if your achievements in the future are unimaginable, and he will always remember one thing that he is not happy about—that is, the reason why his beloved disciple has achieved what he is today is also inseparable from the teachings of some nasty ghost. ”

Sigma looked confused, and Clement saw what he was thinking, and said with a smile, "If you're worried that Sargeras will be displeased that you're learning the Legendary Saint Martial Arts without permission, then don't worry." From what I know about Sargeras, this casual guy will not only not be upset about this, but will laugh loudly at me for being an idiot. ”

Sigma nodded—yes, actually, I think so too, digging a canal to divert water, and then using his own water to fatten the fields of outsiders, but thinking that "even if this guy has a good harvest, he will be unhappy that 'the neighbor's water plays a big role'" This strange logic, isn't it stupid......

Clement said suddenly: "You must be laughing at me in your heart at this time. Because you and Sargeras are one virtue. ”

Sigma said, "How could it be! I thank you for your generosity! And not only taught me, but also asked me to teach Ji Li, and I didn't cook you a delicious dish called flower chicken, and I actually accepted us as apprentices so happily. It's really righteous to the extreme. Wait...... Wait a minute! The next plot is not that I was forcibly captured back to Peach Blossom Island by Sargeras...... Phew, Atlas, and then Kirie followed. Your old man is following you to propose marriage to Sargeras on Kiri's behalf. It just so happened that the high priest of the natural kingdom was also coming with an entire zoo and the daughter of his family's earth spirits...... Ah, yes. Aya hadn't appeared in a long time, and she only met at that time......"

Clement watched coldly, watching Sigma talk nonsense, casually obscuring the question just now, but doing it very conspicuously, for fear that others would not know that he was changing the subject...... I can't help but be angry and funny.

He was stunned for a moment, and then said slowly: "Besides...... I do want to teach you and get a feel for what it's like to be a teacher. Even if you're not my student...... I also once had a disciple who I was very satisfied with and was even able to fulfill my wishes, but my method seemed to be wrong, and she always responded to my expectations, although she was occasionally rebellious and willful, but she was always very good. But I didn't fulfill my responsibilities as a teacher, so much so that when I came to my senses, I ......"

He sighed, "Struggle, doubt, bitterness, sadness...... I thought that as long as it was the right decision and path, I would be able to move forward without regrets, but in the dead of night, there will always be inner struggles and interrogations......"

Sigma frowned, and he thought that Clement might not be out of sight...... After thinking about it for a moment, his eyes suddenly lit up, and he wanted to ask, but Clement sensed his intentions and preemptively interrupted: "I've said enough, this topic will end here, you don't have to ask again." ”

Sigma replied with a smug sigh.

Clement said suddenly: "Sigma, you know what, I've been thinking about it for the past few days, thinking about how to deal with your trouble, but just now, I suddenly perfected an idea, would you be interested in hearing it?" ”

Sigma also had a headache about how to deal with this piece of Clement brand kraft candy, and the old guy seemed to let go of his face and made up his mind to keep an eye on him twenty-four hours a day, so that he would not have a chance to do anything...... The consequences of a legendary powerhouse are destined to be ruined, and a high-level necromancer has no way to hide this kind of surveillance.

It's just as difficult for legendary blasters...... Unless he has the means to completely detonate the health system of Cloudsdale and then evade Clement's initial wrath until the acting Pope feels that he must return to the Papal Palace to preside over the work, not only will the Holy See be a laughing stock, but the clergy will also have a massive state of panic and non-combat attrition......

Other than that, there's really no way to get this old guy out.

So he nodded, choosing to listen to Clement's idea.

"These days, you have to follow me, not stay away, always in my sight."

Sigma frowned, but didn't protest directly, he was waiting for Clement's next step.

"And, I'll teach you something, whether it's martial arts, experience, or whatever...... You must do your best to memorize them, learn them, and relay them to the priesthood you believe in, as I command, if necessary. ”

The acting pope took a deep breath, as if he had made some serious decision: "And in exchange, I will tell you some stories, let you see something, and explain some ideas to you...... Maybe there are hidden answers to what you want to know, the truth you want to know, and after understanding these things, you must be able to make a more correct choice. ”

Sigma looked at Clement, and the Acting Pope looked back at the necromancer calmly.

He said calmly: "This is what I proposed...... The solution to the problem is the most peaceful way I can think of. Sigma, in this case, I have no interest in playing a game of wits with you, I don't even want to be your enemy, for whatever reason, I don't want to, so, I chose a more patient way. ”

The Acting Pope looked at Sigma, his expression calm, but there was a gradually turbulent undercurrent: "I hope you can understand and be mentally prepared...... After all, my patience is always very limited, and at the critical moment when I can't bear it anymore, I am not afraid to make a decision, after all, although you are a very interesting person, and I am more interested in you, but after all, your importance in my heart is far less than the things I cherish the most. ”

His words were always ambiguous, making it difficult to grasp his truest thoughts, but from the clues between the lines, Sigma gradually guessed Clement's intentions.

I suddenly felt flattered.

“…… I'm not an ignorant person, regardless of the truth and your intentions, but I want to say thank you for your love and patience. Sigma nodded and smiled, "That's it, Acting Pope, this offer is very tempting, I can't think of any reason to refuse." ”
