Chapter 177: The Oath Succeeded
“...... Negotiation? ”
Father Andre frowned.
Mr. Bishop once told him that when he met Raspuchin, he could temporarily back down knowing that he was invincible.
However, being adopted by the Great Sanctum since childhood, and growing up in an environment full of sacredness and solemnity, Imprinted on Andrei's sense of responsibility, piety to the Lord, adherence to his faith, and loyalty to Lord Joan, it is impossible for him to choose to surrender without any resistance.
And his colleagues in the Internal Affairs Bureau basically have similar life experiences to him...... Father André observed them quietly, and found that none of them retreated, but quietly pressed their hands on the handles of their weapons one by one, staring at the uninvited guest as closely as he did.
"You know why I'm here, don't you?"
However, the black-robed wizard seemed to completely ignore the guarded and hostile gazes of the crowd and their slow drawing of their weapons, and walked slowly towards the central carriage.
When he was about to come within a few meters of the Queen's car, Father André finally couldn't hold it anymore. He let out a roar, and the two red points of light in the black crystal pupils suddenly expanded, from the original tall and mighty body, to a terrifying-looking and bulging inhuman monster.
The soles of the priest's feet erupted with dazzling firelight, and with his waving arms, muscles as high as steel casting, crossed the distance between the two men in a fifth of a second, raised his fist and slammed down—
The power of this iron fist, even if it is a "tin can" that is fully armed and charged on horseback, may be able to turn the opponent into a lump of meat sauce on the ground.
But in the next second, Father André was sent flying out, and fell into the cliff with a "whoosh" like a spring-loaded projectile at a faster speed than when he came; At this time, the black-robed wizard didn't even make any moves, and still maintained a leisurely attitude like a walk.
Immediately after, an illusory halo slowly rose behind the legendary wizard.
It was a giant with dark blue skin, his expression was wide-eyed, and he stretched his strong, colossal body without a word.
The members of the Internal Affairs Bureau saw their colleagues being beaten away by a blow, and their tense emotions suddenly collapsed, and they pulled out their sword blades one by one, the cold light flashed, and the long sword was like a forest, and the blade pointed directly at the black-robed wizard-
At the same time, an exclamation belonging to a young woman was heard from inside the carriage.
"Father Andrei! He—what's wrong with him?! ”
"Don't worry, ma'am." The black-robed wizard said, "With his physical fitness, he won't die even if he falls from here into a deep valley a few hundred meters below." ”
......
Richard wasn't lying.
Because he had already examined this group of people with the Prophecy Realm spell before that.
He came out in such a big way after he was sure that none of his opponents' energy value was higher than that of the Spell Spirit Lord.
Speaking of abusive dishes, Richard naturally took the lead.
And in addition to confirming the strength, he also accidentally discovered that there was a secret in this group of priests that was not a secret:
In terms of the occupational classification of the extraordinary, this group of people should all belong to the knights, but their bodies are completely different from ordinary people-according to the judgment of the "all-seeing eye", the limbs and even the inside of the body of this group of people contain a large amount of metal.
I'm afraid it's a modified prosthetic person, Richard thought to himself, the kind that is semi-mechanized all over his body.
In this era, they seem to be collectively referred to as "Craftsman Knights" or "Iron Knights".
The bodies of this group of people have been transformed by alchemy, so that they can exert a power far beyond the flesh and blood; But on the other hand, they sacrifice the right to live as ordinary people. Even in the pursuit of power, not everyone can make up their minds to become a monster that merges with the machine.
......
"Excuse me, who are you......?"
The woman in the carriage asked timidly.
"My name is Rasputin Nowikh, a member of the Steppenwolf Wizards' Council, a Blacktower wizard. I wonder if you've ever heard my name? ”
“...... I know. You have a way to dispel the curse on me, right? ”
"Not bad."
Richard snapped his fingers and replied with a smile.
"Pay with one hand, deliver with the other. Dear Madam, I promise to restore you to your new normal. ”
“...... Okay, I see. ”
Queen Mary, who was seated in the carriage, did not hesitate for long. It seems that she has already made up her mind.
"Wait a minute, Her Majesty—"
Someone among the members of the Internal Affairs Bureau suddenly shouted loudly, as if trying to stop the deal, but in the next second, the unlucky guy was treated the same as Father Andre, and was smashed off the cliff by the Cursed Lord as a baseball punch.
"Are all the people of the Holy See so rude? I don't remember ever allowing you to speak. ”
Until this moment, Richard hadn't even looked at the group of members of the Internal Affairs Bureau who surrounded him, all of them looked like they were facing a great enemy. But from his visibly muffled tone, everyone present could smell the danger of the storm coming from it......
Especially, when there was a legendary guardian spirit full of persuasion standing behind him.
"Mr. Raspuchin!"
At that moment, Queen Mary's voice was eagerly stopped.
"Please don't make a move on them, I'll give it to you!"
As she spoke, a small ball of light floated out from the inside of the carriage.
Richard was slightly stunned.
Isn't that what this is......
He had the talisman of the Great Demon God, and he was not afraid of any spells or curses, so he decisively reached out and took it.
From the moment that magic key was included in the "temple of knowledge" belonging to Rasputin's mind and disappeared from reality, he was already able to confirm the authenticity.
This is the legendary oath, the agreement that allows any existence to be signed, and no one can resist it-
As long as he is there, combined with the power of his real name, he has a chance to control anyone in the world.
And this Queen Mary didn't even have any bargaining, so she gave him the thing directly......
The coveted treasure was now in his hands, but it made Richard's heart feel a little unreal.
Richard couldn't help but look up at the thick curtain hanging from the carriage, as if he wanted to see through it the face of the woman sitting inside.
Judging from that pleasant and light voice, it is indeed likely to be a peerless beauty worthy of its name.
Richard suddenly had the idea of stepping into it and seeing the queen's true face.
No one will be able to stop him now anyway. Even, if you want to go further, you can ......
But instead of doing so, he pulled out a pitch-black prismatic thorn from his bosom.
