Chapter 265: The Storm Gathers
Two figures, one large and one small, walked through the dense woods, and the adults pulled the children.
"Mom, why are we running!" Alain was dragged by her mother, and the force from her wrist was unexpectedly great, and while Jili was fighting with the mysterious man, her mother forcibly took her out of the back door, and the little girl had never seen her kind mother so decisive, until she took a short break, she couldn't help but ask.
"Unexpectedly, that young man is actually a necromancer......" Alain's mother turned around, her tone resolute, and a little sad, "Your father said that you must not be allowed to see you!" ”
"Father......" A haze appeared in Alain's eyes at the mention of her father, but she still raised her little face and tried hard to distinguish Sigma, "Brother Sigma is a good person, and you know Mom!" ”
"Maybe it's just appearances...... I'm sorry, Alain, I can't take any chances. Alain's mother smiled reluctantly, "Listen, we can't live here anymore, we have to leave, leave Carlo ......"
Leaving Carllow?
Alan was slightly stunned, at her young age, although she yearned for the outside world, but after all, she couldn't imagine what the scenery outside of Carlo was like, she was a little timid for a while, and she was reluctant to godfather, reluctant to the people here, but her mother's tone was so resolute, and there was a little sadness and vague pleading under the resoluteness, she lowered her head and sighed softly.
Immediately, Alain was startled for no reason, just as she had noticed Sigma at the first sight of the crowd, and she had also noticed someone approaching. Then, she heard a sinister laugh that made her scalp tingle, "Can't let the necromancer see it?" Why? Come, let me see. ”
A gray-robed figure suddenly appeared near the left. His face was hidden in the darkness under the hood, revealing only a pair of terrifying eyes, and from the first sight of him, Alain could not help the fear and vomiting in her heart, this man made her feel so bad, she hated, hated and wanted to stay away, this was the second stranger who made her feel strong emotions. The first is Sigma, who has a warm and peaceful aura about her that makes her want to be close and touched. There is a strong contrast with this person.
So Alan knew that this person was two people who were completely different from Sigma's brother.
As good as Brother Sigma is, he is as bad as he is.
She grabbed her mother's hand. Pulling her, I wanted to run backwards. However, a cold wind blew, and the little girl felt the world spinning for a while, and fell to the ground softly, and the moment before she lost consciousness, she heard the bad guy's malicious sneer: "I didn't expect that there was something that interested me, woman, you better answer my question obediently......"

Nina Vidora Manor, in the midst of a ruined wall. A basement sheltered from the thunder and lightning bombardment, and there were guests visiting. Wandering into the underground chamber, he heard a cold snort.
"It's too slow."
"Something went wrong, the paladin who stayed behind is very tricky, and it doesn't seem to be an ordinary character." Leslin put down a mother and daughter on her shoulders, "The manor is surrounded by imperial troops and a rabble, and it is difficult to go up the mountain. ”
Tesla, who didn't know what he was busy with, turned around, gently hugged Alain and her mother to the bed on the side, and carefully checked Alain's situation. ”
"Never trusted." Tesla replied unceremoniously.
"Hey, just treat me as a labor commander, and don't even say a word of thanks." Leslin chuckled, "That's it, my lord ordered me to cooperate with you, what else do I need to do?" Hurry up and say, I still have some personal grievances to settle after I finish it. ”
"One qiē will go according to the original plan." Tesla didn't look back, and said indifferently, "By the way, Cambra must die, if you want to stop me, just do it." ”
"It's a bit of a problem, he's useful...... Reslin frowned.
"He wants to make a move on Alain, and there's no way I'll let her go." Tesla said coldly, "If you want to block it, even kill you, you are not a good thing anyway." ”
"Sometimes I want to tear your mouth apart...... But for the sake of what you say is the truth, let you go. Leslin thought for a moment, and his eyes lit up, "There you have ...... What do you think of this? I guess that kid has probably already caught Cambra, and with his temper, the Marquis estimates that it will be difficult for him to survive, so I'll leave this task to him, haha, I don't know what his expression will be when he sees our two 'enemies' join forces......"
"You don't say I've forgotten about it." Tesla said quietly, "I led him to your disciple and indirectly killed your student, if you want to take revenge, I am also your enemy." ”
"Mages, especially necromancers, must have a heart without taboos, just a disciple, the reason why they pretend to be angry is just to paralyze some self-righteous fools, if they know that I am an executioner who ignores life, then they will not be able to sleep well......" Leslin laughed hoarsely, "That kid is very smart, but too naïve, if he knew that the bone material of my staff was taken from my mentor, my own son, and my biological father, Maybe he could detect something, but unfortunately, this flower that grew up in a greenhouse, thinking that the world was as beautiful as he imagined, would never understand what it was like to have a dagger stabbed in the back. ”
Leslin laughed grimly, "You know what? I love torturing this kind of genius boy the most, shattering their worldview, shattering their beliefs, and letting them know how childish and ridiculous what they once believed......"
Tesla showed a look of disgust and waved his hand, "You can go, goodbye." ”
"Farewell...... yes, you're dying. Leslin licked the corners of his mouth, "If it weren't for the fact that the adults ordered me to attack you, I really wanted to execute you with my own hands...... It must be a great pleasure to reap your life. ”
"You know what. Reslyn. Tesla sighed, "It's because of you guys that I hate the Temple." ”
"You're wrong this time. It is because of our presence that the great plan of the temple is not just empty words. "The brighter the ideal, the darker the means, and there are so-called messengers of justice in the Temple, whose hearts and ideals are not much worse than those of the purest priesthood, but the difference between the Temple and the Holy See is that. The temple has not only righteous partners with righteousness and mercy in their hearts, but also blood-stained depravities like us, who don't like each other. But we are willing to dedicate ourselves to the same ideal, but the means and tasks are different, and we are more pragmatic than the Holy See, which also had the opportunity to become another temple, but their heads have been burned by the Holy Light. Even the Inquisition is reasoning...... What about the facts? Follow the teachings of the Light. Sticking to their beliefs, generations of clergy have gone forward and lost their lives in order to make this world a better place, but more clergy have died, and this land is still this land, and all they get is sorrow, just like your wife......"
Tesla snapped, "Shut up! ”
“…… I thought you must have a burning flame burning in your heart, just like I did. Leslin sighed. Now it seems that we are indeed not all the way. ”
He turned away: "Farewell." Albert Tesla. ”
Tesla replied only with silence.
Leslyn stepped up the steps with an icy smile.
A terrible roar suddenly sounded from behind, followed by Tesla's angry roar: "Reslin, what did you do!" ”
Necromancer Shi Shiran turned around, only to see Alain's mother, who was originally lying on the stone bed, with a hideous face, reaching out to grab Tesla, the demon scholar manipulated the lightning and tried to bind the woman, Leslin sighed: "So, I have always said that you are telling the truth." Firstly, you must not trust me, and secondly, betrayal can happen at any time. ”
Tesla's face was cold: "Then ......"
"Before you do anything to me......" the necromancer laughed, "I promise that woman will explode in a second, and that little girl with whom you have inexplicable feelings is about to lose her mother, just like your daughter......"
Tesla's eyes were red: "Shut up!" Shut up! ”
"Shut up? Self-deceiving guy, hiding in Carlo for the past few years, in addition to burying his head in your research, has always been sorry, I feel sorry for your daughter, I feel sorry for your wife, so you happened to see this mother and daughter, what kind of mentality did you have? Think of them as a substitute, see them as an opportunity to start over, if you take care of them, you will take care of your wife and daughter......" Leslin laughed, "So, from beginning to end, they are just a false substitute for you, a substitute to comfort your soul that is more fragile than grass, and what is even more ridiculous is that you coward did not dare to show up from the beginning to the end......"
Tesla roared, and the air suddenly exploded with the sound of lightning, but in front of the thunder power that destroyed the nature, Reslin still did not change his face, and said indifferently: "Before I do it, I will tell you a small matter...... In fact, this little girl is awake all the time. ”
Tesla's heart suddenly shook and turned his head to look at Alain, but at the same time, he also held up an incomparably strong electromagnetic barrier shield, protecting the three of them from the possible sneak attack of Reslin, but the expected sneak attack did not happen, the moment he turned around, Alain also opened his eyes, this pair of godfathers and goddaughters with strange relationships, suddenly looked at each other.
No one can know the chaos in Tesla's heart, he wants to say something, but he doesn't know where to start, facing the girl's godless eyes, his heart is shocked, memories surface, time has passed ten years, when he was beside his wife's corpse, his young daughter also showed this empty expression......
Then he suddenly felt a sharp pain.
Lowering his head, Alain's slender little hand held a dagger deep into his chest.
"What am I talking about? Sometimes a deadly dagger can come from behind. Reislin smiled smugly, "It's a pleasure...... You know the sense of accomplishment that every time I use cunning and traps to send a powerful enemy to death, it makes me feel refreshed? Second only to refining something powerful or beautiful into an undead. ”
Tesla squirted a mouthful of blood, splashing it on Alain's immature little face. He said with difficulty: "For ...... Why? ”
"Why? Do you think I don't know your little moves? Since you're using us, don't blame me for using you, besides. Tesla, the people of the temple will not allow you to kill if you say so. Leslin said proudly, "You have a crush on that kid?" Want to give him your life's work and achievements? How could I allow such a terrible weapon to fall into the hands of the Dead Realm! ”
Tesla shook his head with difficulty and said, "It's not a weapon...... That's not a weapon......"
"That's what I hate you the most, or rather, what I hate most about you so-called 'geniuses'. Squandered his talents, because he would achieve higher achievements than others and have more strength than ordinary people. So what is the so-called bottom line, what are you dreaming about, you know? In your group of geniuses, they are proud of their achievements. Smug for the sake of your own bottom line and principles, others who are not as talented as you are working a thousand times harder, and will do whatever it takes to reach your heights......" Leslin's eyes burned with crimson blood. "You said it before. Is your weather control instrument to regulate the weather, control rainfall, control drought and waterlogging, and develop agriculture? What a disgusting face, I tell you what this kind of thing is really for...... If you shoot a gas bomb full of plague virus into a cloud, then use it to control rainfall. What kind of role will it play? Tesla, we necromancers. is the best person to use it! ”
Tesla's pupils shrank suddenly, and he struggled, "You...... Don't you ......?"
"The brain doesn't turn slowly." Leslin sneered, "Now that Nina Vidora's Manor is surrounded by all kinds of people, from the Imperial Legion to the various forces of Carlo, from the Imperial Princess to the Diagoon Friar, and even to the entire city of Carlo, if so many elite forces, so many innocent civilians all died in a rain of destruction and death full of undead viruses, what kind of uproar can be set off on the mainland?" Tesla, your plan is too petty, and full of your own selfishness, how can my plan be so cool? ”
The Demon Daoist Scholar said with difficulty: "No, you can't ......"
"Can't? Why? This qiē is in the service of your ultimate plan, isn't it what you expected that the constant killing of the whole continent would attract more attention, and eventually attract a Sacred Realm master, causing it to fall, and attracting the attention of the whole continent? Leslin sneered, "Then your crazy revenge plan will have a chance to kick in...... If you can wantonly kill innocents because of your hatred, why can't I? Don't you think it's ridiculous? ”
Tesla was speechless for a while.
Leslin snorted, then sneered, "And...... Now that self-righteous boy, aware of the clues I have deliberately left for him, will begin to plan and make all arrangements, and he will feel that he is sure of victory, and he must be hurrying here with Cambra at this moment, ready to grab the fruits of victory, and enjoy a hearty victory—and then he will find that his friends, and those who have come together because of his plan, ready to win, are all dead because of his conceit and stupidity! What an exciting scene! I can't wait to see his face at that time! ”
Reislin looked at Tesla, who was struggling to speak, and said with a smile: "You must want to say, I can't get it, but it's a pity that you are disappointed again, you think you are secretive, but we have long known the location of the celestial weapons, although I am not very proficient in alchemy, but it is still possible to control it to gather clouds and rain, and leave the rest to the alchemy masters of the temple to study." ”
The demon scholar still wanted to speak, but the mouth had already spit out gurgling blood, Alan still maintained the posture of stabbing out the dagger, his eyes were hollow, his face was dull, she was still under the control of Reslin, the necromancer sensed that Tesla's death was approaching, and reached out and popped out a magic power, sealing his ability to move, but maintaining his vitality: "Don't die casually...... You have one last use. Don't forget, you killed my disciple, and you have to pay me one. ”
Leslin looked at Alan and said with a smile: "It's really unexpected, I actually came across a rare piece of good material, compared to her, my last disciple is simply a broken stone...... But no matter how good the material is, it must be carefully polished, otherwise it will become the naïve and childish waste of that kid, okay, my future disciple, the first class is about to begin. ”
Tesla obviously understood what Alan wanted to do, what he wanted to say, but he didn't have the strength to speak, Leslin laughed and said: "By the way, I didn't panic just now, although this child was indulged by my body, but her consciousness has not disappeared, she can see and hear, it has always been like this, from the topic of substitutes, to the godfather who killed him with his own hands......"
He reached out a little.
Alain's body shuddered.
The girl still maintains this posture.
And incomparably empty eyes.
Her mouth grew and her body trembled, as if she were crying silently and desperately.
Looking at Tesla, who was dying, and looking at his mother, whose life and death were unknown.
"That's right, that's it, feel the despair, feel the despair that goes deep into the marrow......" Reslin's voice seemed to be a curse from hell, "this is how the world is...... To be wantonly bullied by others, to be ravaged at will, to take the lives of those who cherish them, to trample on precious things, and then you will understand how happy it is to bully others, to ravage the weak, to kill others, to destroy them at will, to kill them wantonly, to control the fate of others......"
Satisfied with the little girl's hateful gaze, Leslin left a "enjoy" and left the basement, the thick walls of bone sealing the way out, and the necromancer smiled feverishly and excitedly as he looked at the gray sky above Nina Vidora's Manor.
At this time, the elite of Carlo's major forces left the city and rushed to the manor.
At this time, a signal flare was found rising in the city, and a group of cavalry of the Iron Bear Legion roared out of the camp and rushed in the direction of Carlo, and according to Witness City, the Iron Princess was in the ranks.
At this time, the Phoenix Chamber of Commerce's enshrinement rendezvous with the assassination master of the Dark Brotherhood was beating a certain butler around.
At this time, Kiri's whereabouts are unknown.
At this time, Sigma took the Marquis of Cambra hostage and rushed to the manor, and along the way, the Marquis understood what is called verbal violence and the greatest malice of human beings, and wanted to hang himself.
None of them knew what would happen at the center of the storm. (To be continued......)
