Chapter 46: Secrets
Ye Feng stepped forward and was about to take a closer look at who was in the coffin, but Mars's voice came from behind. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
Turning around, he saw Mars dragging the black-robed man in, he looked a little tired, and it seemed that he was greatly consumed.
Throwing the black-robed man on the ground, his body was firmly restrained by the confinement formed by the wind element, unable to move a bit, Mars said to Ye Feng: "It was not easy to capture him alive, and I almost let him run away just now." ”
When the three of them heard this, they all gathered around, and Ye Feng introduced to the two: "This is Mars, he was originally the Great Magister of this country. ”
"Hello Master Mars." Li Qiuming said hello simply.
Then Ye Feng introduced Wang Zhizhi and Li Qiuming to Mars, and the three of them simply got to know each other.
Then, Mars crouched down and stretched out his hand towards the hood on the black-robed man's head: "Let me see who you are." ”
The hood was lifted, and a pale face was unexpectedly revealed, Ye Feng was a little surprised, he originally thought it would be an old man or something, because this black-robed man had a little hunched back, but he didn't expect to be so young.
"Y-You're Streich!" Mars cried out in surprise, his expression extremely uneasy.
"Who's Streich?" Li Qiuming asked curiously, judging from Mars's expression, this person was obviously his acquaintance, otherwise he would not have shown such a surprised expression.
Mars was still shocked, but he still spoke: "He is the son of the Duke, but at that time he didn't know dark magic at all, I remember that he should have majored in divine magic, how did this happen?" His brow furrowed, looking a little confused.
And Ye Feng's surprise was no less than Mars, this person's appearance was exactly the same as the portrait he saw when he was in that mysterious mansion.
It stands to reason that the man should have died in that dark room, but isn't that person himself?
There are too many doubts, but Ye Feng has a feeling that he is close to the truth.
"If I'm not mistaken, did you come back from the dead?" Ye Feng said slowly, he wanted to test this guy named Stredge.
When Strelch heard Ye Feng's words, he immediately showed a surprised expression.
Sure enough, Ye Feng thought to himself, there is something wrong with this guy, but isn't it too to say that he came back from the dead or something? So why did the bones remain in their original dead place after the resurrection?
"How do you know?" After a brief moment of surprise, Stredge's expression calmed down, and then he spoke slowly.
"I've seen your bones." Ye Feng's words were concise and to the point.
"Yes, I see, it seems that you are the one who entered the secret room, and the king ring is also on you?" Strachey calmed down, making it impossible to see what he was really thinking.
Ye Feng was noncommittal, he was calculating in his heart, this guy came back from the dead, but it couldn't be that he resurrected himself, otherwise it would be too strange, and if not, then there was probably another person, at this time, a figure popped up in his mind.
Renault!
Ye Feng suddenly opened his mouth, this matter must be related to him, since he entered this country, he has not seen many living people at all, except for Mars who is locked in a cage, it is the bearded Renault.
At this time, Mars asked in a deep voice, "Tell me, what is going on in this country?" ”
"Country?" Strachey showed a hint of nostalgia, but in the blink of an eye, he changed back to his expressionless appearance.
"Speak quickly!" Mars could not calm down, the person in front of him was the only one who knew what was going on in the country at the moment.
"It's okay to tell you, anyway, the formation is broken, and it's already too late." Straggie said slowly, and from his mouth, those dusty past events began to appear in front of several people.
Things have to start from a hundred years ago, when Aram was one of the most powerful countries in the world, and its most commendable thing was the power of magic, there was the famous Aran National Academy of Magic, which brought together almost all the world's magical geniuses, and this kind of environment where almost all people practiced magic created the country's attitude towards magic and its tolerance, almost any magic can be studied and learned here, including black magic, of course.
As we all know, the attribute of black magic is darkness, and its power is generally more evil, which is roughly divided into three categories: curse, undead magic, and blood magic.
Necromancy is the most disgusting, as it is often associated with tomb robbing, as the person who practices it must have a corpse for practice.
But Aram is different, because of the unique atmosphere of this country, black magic is also very popular here, and one of them has produced a genius who is famous for necromancy.
The man's name was Jan Steele, and as time went on, his fame grew, and he gradually attracted the king's attention.
The king then received the genius, and it was then that Steele came into the sight of the palace, and soon the man made a suggestion to the king that he wanted to rekindle the flame of origin.
The flame of origin had been extinguished, and generations of kings had been unable to rekindle it with all their efforts, and when he heard that he had a way, the king should be tempted.
Immediately, Steele suggested that the Flame of Origin originated in antiquity, and that ordinary methods would certainly not be able to rekindle it, but if the soul was used as firewood, it might be possible to rekindle the Flame of Origin.
Impressed, the king rejected the attempt, but not long after, summoned Steele again, and he agreed to Steele's suggestion.
But the matter must not be known to the world, so it was always done in secret, and the king built an underground labyrinth for him to study.
But strange things happened, and as his research deepened, the king's visits to the underground labyrinth increased more and more, and his temperament changed dramatically.
Finally, on the night of a full moon, the king brought in the few remaining archmages of the country at that time, but just after that, the country changed, and a violent wave poured out, and the entire country died, even if they did not die, they were infected in some way.
Streich was still a human at the time, and that night, he was temporarily living in the palace because of something, and it was not long before he saw the king stumbling towards him.
Stredgey was surprised, and he asked the king what had happened.
The king told him that he was wrong, that he had created a demon, and then he stumbled to the palace chamber, and Strachey was very strange, so he followed the king, and the king put the ring on the stone platform, and then rushed into the chamber, and he was so hurried that he forgot to take the ring.
Soon, the chamber was closed again, but Strachey was not of royal blood, and the king was not dead, so he could not open it again, so he had to remove the ring and drive all the way back to his mansion.
After that, strange things happened, almost everyone in the family died, and all of them became walking corpses, and Strachey was terrified, so he set up an exorcism to keep all creatures out.
But as time went on, he also felt that he was cursed, and in order to prevent his corpse from becoming a corpse, he finally committed suicide and was in the secret room.
"That's all I know." Strachey said.
"And how did you come back to life?" Ye Feng asked, according to his words, he should have died in the secret room.
"It's Steele, that guy got my genes somewhere, used black magic to resurrect me, and he was going to take control of me later, but I took advantage of his carelessness to escape, and I found out that he was afraid of divine power, so I set up an exorcism on the path of the palace to stop him, and that's all I know until now." Strachey said.
"And what's going on with that letter you wrote? And who is Renault? Ye Feng continued to ask.
Strachey said, "Renault, that's the king." ”
"The King?"
"That's right, he was also resurrected by Steele, and every year he tricks a lot of outsiders in, but those people eventually die and become Steele's men, and it would have been difficult for me to escape without his help at the time, but now it's too late." Strachey said, as if he was a little depressed, after hiding for so many years, what should have come is always coming.
