Chapter 45: Enlightenment

July 1733 Adventurers' Guild Hall in Kuro Town

At this time, there was no one else in the adventurer's hall, and those people had already fled into the guild, so there was a lot of space. Unconscious Kumar and Rod lay on the ground, while Modrella and Lott were staring at each other, the puppet holding the holy sword in his hand and Lott clenching his own sword, a gesture that was more of a confrontation than an exchange.

"What do you mean?" Lott was in the mood to guess Modelilah's riddle right now, and he asked directly.

"Just like the literal meaning, I ask you, if you were to trade your life for the lives of everyone here, would you do it?" the doll threw out the question, but the answer was obvious.

"I've long regarded death as home, and I'd certainly like to do it if I could. "Jasmine said just now that it's impossible, how can you save everyone in a blink of an eye? Although the price is herself, it is much better than everyone dying together. Lott didn't understand the doll's path.

"I know you're still doubting whether what I'm saying is true or not. After all, Lott didn't hide his expression at all now, it was a kind of suspicion, "I can assure you that it's the method I just came up with." She said as she walked over to Lot.

"What to do?" this is the most practical question, since the puppet said so, Lott chooses to believe it, after all, even if she can hide it, she must not lie.

"Put down your weapon and take it. Jasdella handed Eskar to Lot, "Rod just said, this sword contains great power. But he can't use it, with his current strength, forcibly liberating the force will be eaten to death, and Eskar will not kill his master. ”

"What do you mean... I'm coming?" Lott understood, his eyes lit up at once, so the town was really saved!

"Well, you're going to have to pay the price of death, and you only have one chance. The puppet looked at the boy with a face full of reluctance. According to the previous performance, the puppet was confident that the boy would do this, but he only picked up a life in the dragon's breath, and now he is going to lose it, which is too pitiful. Lott is really able to do things, and he is a free person, there is no organization to rob her, she likes this kind of person very much, but unfortunately she found it too late. Modrilla is now asking herself why she was prejudiced against Lott in the first place, perhaps because he was too smart and tough, and the puppet instinctively wanted to distance himself from him.

"Okay, thank you for giving me this opportunity, Miss Modelilah. The honorific title was used again, and there was a look of gratitude on the young man's face. I didn't expect such a good thing to happen in the end, he looked down at Eska, and the sword flashed a burst of white light and then became longer, "It's the first time I've officially used you, Escar, please advise." ”

"When the time comes, you just have to point it at the target, and Eskar will free herself. Jasmine taught the boy how to use the Sacred Sword, "I've discussed that with it." ”

"Okay, I'll go meet the dragon envoy. Without further ado, time was pressing, and Lott hurried to the door.

"It's all such a coincidence, I didn't calculate it at all this time, is this fate?" Modrilla crouched down and stroked Rod's face with her hand, she knew it wasn't over yet, "Now that fate has led us to this point, it's up to me next." ”

- Outside the door, after Mothrie pulled in -

"Hey. Calvin's voice came back to Retta's head.

"Are you still there?" the knight raised an eyebrow, "is this how you annoy people?"

"You go on like this...", Reta didn't seem to be trying to pick up his joke, "You will—" her tone was a little unusual.

"What do you want to say?" Calvin was looking down to confirm the activation status of the covenant, not caring what she said.

"You probably still have quite a bit of your Crimson Blood. If you're seriously injured or because of covenant backlash, a few drops of the wound will heal. The vampire said this advice in the friendliest tone possible.

"Why? You want to treat me for me

Is Kassandra cheating?" Calvin didn't like her.

"Hey, it's not a joke, you won't be able to carry that dragon for long even with the Covenant, and you haven't transferred the group to supply the Holy Energy. "Vampires have been dealing with saints for so many years, and they are also familiar with the priesthood. She knew how much the Divine Word of this protective series consumed the Holy Power.

"It's like I told Modrilla that death is death, I was prepared. "Calvin's attitude towards his life seems very casual.

"You don't have to worry about Modrilla knowing, the observation magic near the dragon's breath was blocked just now, and she didn't see it. Reta was still trying to persuade the knight.

"That's not the point, Raetta, I'm a knight, there's no way I'm going to take vampire blood. Calvin's tone became serious, and he again explicitly refused.

"Even if this can save your life, no one will know!" Leita was anxious, seeing that the crisis was getting closer and closer, Calvin's attitude did not back down in the slightest.

"Look at the color of my armor, and then look at what you did at the beginning, do you think I can ignore all this and accept your help calmly?" Calvin talked more, the more painful his heart became, looking at his dark silver armor, the past resurfaced one by one, coupled with the riots in the holy capital behind, the knight felt very guilty in his heart.

"Nalot..."

"He's a free man, it doesn't matter. But I can't. We had a good time working together, Leita, it's time to stop talking, okay?" Calvin said this, wanting to completely extinguish Leita's hope.

"So you decided to bury this town for this reason, didn't you?" Reta sounded more and more emotional.

"Yes," Calvin replied categorically.

"Bastard!" Leita finally couldn't help it, she yelled directly, "You sanctimonious hypocrite! You obviously cooperated with me at the beginning, and now you are so clean, who can show it!"

"At the beginning, because there was a huge threat, I was also controlled by you, and it was a helpless move. Calvin tried to explain.

"Then you still negotiate terms with me, and let me save you in times of crisis!" Leita was a little hysterical, she couldn't stand Calvin's attitude that he would rather die than accept help.

"Since cooperation cannot be avoided, bargaining is always necessary. Calvin didn't feel like he was doing anything wrong.

"Then you could have killed yourself! You didn't threaten me with this, didn't Kassandra do the same?" Reta became more and more outrageous, and her voice grew louder and louder, like a child in a temper tantrum.

"Because the Black Rose was really concerned at that time, and I had to find out, I chose to cooperate, and my own name was not as important as the safety of the world. Each of Calvin's actions had their own reasons and stood up to her skepticism.

"You... The blood will drain out naturally when you drink it, and you don't have anything to lose!" Calvin couldn't say it, and Leita chose to go around again.

"It's endless, that's all for it, I said I don't want to be unwilling, if you can't control it, I'll shut up. Calvin was annoyed with her a little.

"You really are..."Leita, who was in a dead end, was also jumping to her feet in a hurry, and it seemed that no matter what she said, the knight would not accept the blood, "I said, if you can survive, but you are paralyzed, will you drink?"

"No, it won't. ”

"It's just a broken leg and a disability?"

"No, it won't. ”

"What if you lose Lott because of it?"

"No, it won't. ”

"Then you will never be able to accompany Lott in the future, don't you regret it?"

"No regrets. "Four in a row, unable to get rid of Leita's entanglement, the knight can only be forced to communicate with her. However, no matter how much the vampire gave in, the knight's attitude did not change in the slightest, "By the way, if there is a day, I will forget something, Leita." Calvin thought of something, and he screamed

Blood ghost names.

"I really don't want to pay attention to you right now. The vampire sighed.

"It's obvious that you've been bothering me. Calvin's tone was a little innocent, "I'll ask you something, you talk to your Jasmine there, after I die, let Lott go to Lindra, let Lindra go to the Holy Capital to pick up Lot, this child is worth her teaching." ”

"Say it yourself, survive it. Reta still didn't let go of the stubble.

"It's useless to say more. I'm not going to touch Scarlet Blood. Calvin's position remains firm.

"You... Beware, the dragon is coming. Ratta's warning flashed in his head, and the knight looked around, and could indeed hear the roar of the dragon envoy, which was the irritability and anger caused by the repeated inability to find anyone. This town played him hard, Calvin had already demolished most of the town when he was chatting, and now he was finally here.

There was already a risk of being attacked, so he could only choose to be exposed, Calvin made up his mind, he took a few steps outside, held the shield in his hands and raised it high, and the white roses that flashed on it suddenly burst into dazzling golden light.

God the Father is above,

I swear by the name of the covenant.

I will guard the Catechism,

Guarding justice,

Guarding the peace.

With my body,

Resist the darkness,

Resist disasters,

Resist the fall.

In spite of all kinds of torture,

There is no fear or regret.

After chanting, a protective word that shone with golden light appeared, and it enveloped the entire adventurer's guild, and Calvin's shield clinged to the edge of the word. The whole Word is translucent, and the white rose symbol of the Church appears from time to time on the surface. This is somewhat similar to the protective words that Yass Langley released in the church of the mysterious town.

The appearance of the covenant was too conspicuous, and the dragon envoy immediately spotted the adventurer's guild, "Are they all hiding here?" Aarbord roared and squirted all the way with a powerful dragon's breath.

The dragon's breath crackled on the covenant, and Calvin frowned, and the attacks on the protective word would be transferred to him with a painful feeling, this time, it was enough to tear his heart, and the knight gritted his teeth and snorted.

However, the protection of the covenant is indeed perfect, unlike the enchantment of the magic guide just now, there is no remnant of flame on the surface of the covenant, and the golden word cannot be concealed by the dragon's breath.

"Can it hold on?" asked Reta with concern.

"You're not gone yet. Swallowing his saliva, Calvin gasped, and soon the second wave of dragon breath came again, and the pain made Calvin's painful brows furrow again, "I can't die, for the time being, thank you for your concern." ”

"Well, I don't even know what to say, cheer you on or laugh at you?" Reta smiled wryly.

"Whatever you want, you can be as happy as you want, I don't care. Calvin squeezed out a smile as well.

"At this time, I am the only one who can talk to you. Isn't it time to thank me. Reta didn't know what to do, so she started chatting again.

"I'm going to spend the last moments of my life with you like this?" Calvin didn't seem to want to say.

"And what do you want to talk about?" asked the knight rhetorically.

"Is Lindra okay?" At the last moment, Calvin thought of his distant friend, "Is her cultivation going well with you?"

"That's a terrible woman, but luckily she's not from the church. "Since Calvin is going to talk about this, Leta is willing to accompany him. Even as the sound of the flames outside, the snorting of the knights, and the roar of the dragon envoys were all heard in one go, the vampire's tone remained calm as if he hadn't heard it.
