048, Urban I (2)

Urban I's offer was tempting, there was no doubt about it, especially after he had just been very thoughtful in dissecting the enemies that Talos would have to face in the future.

God can testify to what a terrifying lineup, from the gods who are high up and control all the beliefs of the main material plane, to the evil gods who can compete with the gods in the outer void, he has inadvertently stood on the opposite side of the two most powerful forces in the order and outside the order!

Only God knows how difficult it will be to fight against the Church of the Gods in a theistic world, and besides, Talos will have to face an entire camp of gods in the future.

As soon as he thought of this, the knowledge of the gods themselves turned into a heavy pressure, and they weighed heavily on Talos's heart.

What's even worse is the double trouble caused by the soul fire itself, one is the counterattack from the primordial desire, and now Talos has learned that Jane, the queen of the ancient Sadinian dynasty and the wife of Urban I, died of gluttony.

The seven primordial desires, the further you go back, the greater the power of the counterattack, and the more difficult it is to want to submit.

Although Talos successfully stripped [Gluttony] and [Jealousy] from his body, it is undoubtedly a lie to say that he can 100% pass the counterattack from [Laziness].

You must know that Queen Jane was a high-ranking bloodline knight when she died, and there was a mysterious Venerable Urban I by her side to help, but the result was not to die of starvation.

The second is the fate of undying with other soul fire holders, which is destined to become a stepping stone for the other.

If he meets a Bruce today, what if he meets a soul fire holder who reaches the fourth order before him?

In contrast, it is easier and easier for the will to descend on other material planes to collect faith.

What's more, Talos's identity in this life is extraordinary, and after Sandra was promoted to the fifth rank to become a six-armed Naga and a legendary mage, he is one of the most noble people in the Naga Kingdom, the future prince of Gorgon.

Even if he doesn't do anything on the path of bloodline knighthood from now on, he can live a very chic and carefree life, with power and beauty at his fingertips, and those who flatter him can line up from the Black Sea to Hasima.

However, was that really what he was hoping for?

Talos asked himself, before he was changed, he was definitely a hundred willing, to be honest, how many people in the entire main material plane could refuse to have an identity, a status, a status and a gold coin?

Lustful dogs, lasciviousness, laziness, and unearned gains, it's heaven!

What's more, Talos will not only be able to live such a life, but also for the rest of his life.

- After Sandra is promoted to Legendary, if nothing else, the Legend rank itself has at least a lifespan bonus of 1000 years, and Naga's racial talent is given an additional 500 years.

But that was before Talos opened his eyes.

After standing tall, looking far, being a messenger and a god with the help of soul fire, accepting worship and faith, and seeing the "Seven Days Bible" and "Sonata of Truth", Talos felt that his pursuit was different.

There may be a subconscious sense of vanity and satisfaction in falling in love with being worshipped as a god by other creatures, but Talos is sure that he not only wants to master his own way of life, but also wants to reach the pinnacle of power and explore the secrets of the whole world.

Having figured this out, Talos shook his head very firmly under the gaze of Urban I.

So is Bruce.

Urban I sighed heavily: "Sure enough, there is some trouble. ”

Talos was stunned and looked at him with a puzzled look.

The middle-aged man composed of light and shadow looked at the two of them with a very appreciative gaze: "A small lie, there is no way to strip the soul fire at all, it is a special power that even some powerful divine powers are coveting, otherwise I wouldn't have watched Jane die in front of me." ”

Why did you ...... just now?

It dawned on Talos that it was a test!

Urban I's next words confirmed Talos's suspicions: "My body and soul have been annihilated, and this is the last soul that holds the secret of my life, but it is only when it is about to dissipate that the black dragon turns into a dragon vein to attract others, and I want to lock the secret in someone's soul at will and pass it on." Now it seems that everything is fate, and there is no one more qualified to know this secret than the Chosen One. ”

"Butβ€”" said Urban I, in a tone of unusually seriousness, "only one of the two of you will know. ”

This is also the main reason why he said that he was conflicted after meeting Talos and Bruce at the beginning, only one person can walk out of the Frost Crown alive and become the new owner of the Frost Crown.

Talos nodded in understanding, but couldn't help but ask, "What if, I mean if, I just nodded?"

"I would like to thank you from the bottom of my heart for helping me solve a difficult problem that is not too big or small. Urban I grinned and pointed at Bruce, "Then imprison you and let him kill you with a spell, absorb your soul fire, and complete the fate of the two of you." There is not much time left for us, and I can already feel the proximity of the Order and other clergy such as the God of Knights. ”

Talos couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat at Urban's words, he didn't doubt the former legendary mage's control over the Frost Crown, fortunately he had just held himself and was not tempted by the power and beauty.

"But don't worry, I'll arrange the fairest duel for you, and decide the winner. ”

Probably because of Queen Jane, even though he knew that only one person would survive, Urban I's eyes on the two of them did not change much from beginning to end.

"Fair?" Talos snapped his eyes and thought of an idea, pointing to the gargoyles that were frozen in the air and should have been attacked by chain lightning, "They should have been buried by the avalanche." Andβ€”"

A smug smile bloomed on Talos's face: "This Chosen One's surname is Finch, and he is a noble prince. ”

Bruce's face changed drastically, and to be honest, after guessing the identity of the middle-aged man, he had been worried that the other party would ask about the origin of their names - Urban I was killed by his ancestor, Albert, the founder of the Golden Empire - and now he was suddenly exposed by Talos, so he was naturally terrified, and quickly pinched the scroll in his hand.

However, he did not leave in the end, because Urban I did not attack him because of Talos's provocation.

Bruce looked at the middle-aged man in confusion, Talos looked at him puzzled, and the four-armed Naga had the luxury of hoping to get Bruce out early with the feud he had since many years ago.

Urban I looked at Talos with a smile: "The strife and grudge between mortals are just an irrevocable past for me, and they have long been unable to influence my decision. Besides, the information I remember is too important for me to give to someone who is qualified to know. Speaking of which, I prefer mages to bloodline knights. ”

"Oh my God, I'm in trouble, am I?"

"No, not really, I said I would make sure the duel was fair, and you can rest assured of that. ”

Bruce took a deep breath and asked the last question, "So, how are you going to accomplish it?"

"Desire. Urban I said, "You will enter into an illusion at the same time, and whoever can be the first to break out of the sinking of all desires will be the victor." ”

"However, I do not rule out the possibility that the illusion will trigger the curse of primordial desire in advance. ”
