Chapter 511, Cunning (Fifth Update)
The question of the black dragon was also the confusion in Xiao Yan's heart. As for what is the relationship between the Shijie Tree and the "Lord" of the European Shijie, Xiao Yan is still confused. Although in reality there are some Catholics in Shijie who regard the Shijie Tree and the Lord as two in one, or worship both sides of the same coin, such as the pious Father Quist. But it must be said that there is a certain difference between the God and the shijie tree that the Catholics say.
And in this trial shijie, in fact, it is also chaotic, it is the lord who does not know what to do, and there is a small shijie tree in this shijie. There is a clear difference between the two, but there seems to be a special connection. At least the actions of the "Lord" are not too much interference from the Shijie Tree.
However, such a question is like a question that I thought about before, and when Shijie no Tree thinks that Xiao Yan should know, it will naturally leave enough clues. And now, it is obviously not to the point where Xiao Yan can care about this kind of thing.
"I don't care about the relationship between Yggtra Sil and the Lord, and I have deep sympathy for your situation. Other than that, there's nothing I can do about your current situation, tell me, how can you help you? β
Xiao Yan turned his head to look at the black dragon, and then said, "We can make a transaction, just like I said just now, without paying, it is impossible to get." You already know how to break the seal, but all that's missing is the person who does it. β
"A pure-blooded elven descendant, capable of unleashing level 4 or above divine magic. But at the same time, he can also unleash spells from other systems, and more importantly, he can't be an elf. β
The black dragon said calmly. Then he turned his head to look at his black and oppressive kingdom. Whisper: "You seem to have been made for this." That's what happened. And your two successive miracles are precisely to embody this coincidence, so that you can 'justly' break my seal. β
Xiao Yan nodded slightly, and suddenly remembered the just right rest points he had stayed in these days, and agreed with the black dragon's opinion, he said, "Yes, we will definitely meet here, and then we will inevitably face such a situation." Then we make choices with each other. Or rather, I'll make a choice, whether to save you or not. β
The black dragon looked down at the dwarves who had already reached the realm of their kingdom, and said, "Our respective chips are already here, and if you don't save me, you will face my wrath." Not just you, but all of the team will die. But if I kill you, I'll lose the chance to leave this underground pit forever. β
Xiao Yan smiled slightly, not particularly concerned about the threat of the black dragon. Imperative to unlock the seal of the black dragon, little Fryman found the cave on the hillside outside and began. He had already re-embarked on the Shijie Tree to set the haode track. This black dragon will inevitably appear in the shijie outside, just like the black dragon just said. Of the Lord's two miracles, the first was a bit too frivolous, the second was a bit too frizzy. The conversion of hundreds of dwarves led to such a miracle by the Lord, and such a reason is too casual to think about now.
What's more, even Bishop Gogel of Speyer knew that Xiao Yan was actually a mage, and it was impossible for that "all-knowing and all-powerful" "Lord" who was high above not to know this. But the reality is that the "Lord" did not stop Sylvester II from killing the European mages, indicating that the Lord approved of this kind of action, but on the other hand, he gave the green light to Xiao Yan, knowing that Xiao Yan was a mage but kept sending miracles. This kind of thing sounds like the biggest contradiction.
So, what was the purpose of the Lord sending down such a miracle before Xiao Yan arrived at this cave, and even specially using the image of the angel to prepare enough gems for Xiao Yan? Stop the black dragon from leaving this cave? It seems that this is not the original intention of the "Lord".
Conditionally unsealed? Because even if there were no miracles, the Lord would not be able to stop Xiao Yan from having a 4-ring mage and a level 4 priest. Even if he didn't keep in touch with the Divine Pool, with the Shijie Tree's arrangement, Xiao Yan still had a chance to lift the seal of the black dragon. Then the succession of the Lord's miracles, in now it seems, was to take advantage of this opportunity to gain something.
Xiao Yan suddenly remembered the oracles in the second miracle.
"You are good."
"If you do evil, you need to think a lot."
"If you do evil to the wicked, it is good and permissible."
"Do evil to you and you will be punished sevenfold. Even the descendants of those who have done evil deeds will be punished in the same way. β
"Your offspring will be good."
"The offspring of those who do evil will surely become thy slaves, and thy offspring servants, and thy future slaves unto the seventh."
At the time, I thought it was just a few simple oracles, but now I think about it makes sense. While the Lord is issuing some kind of warning, he is also paving a way for Xiao Yan.
Doing evil things to Xiao Yan, isn't that the black dragon? It is permissible to do evil to the black dragon. In other words, no matter what you do to the black dragon, you will not be punished. Conversely, if the black dragon did evil to Xiao Yan, he would not only be punished seven times more. What's more, he will become Xiao Yan's slave, and even the descendant of little Fryman on this shijie, until the seventh generation later.
When thinking of the oracle of the first miracle, the "Lord" let Xiao Yan have many descendants, and the two oracles together are to let Xiao Yan and Xiao Yan's descendants continue to control this black dragon.
The Lord's intentions have been made clear by such oracles. Black dragons can appear in Trials Shijie, but they must be restrained. It is best to let this black dragon take the initiative to attack Xiao Yan to make sure that this oracle has an effect, and after that, the black dragon will automatically become Xiao Yan's slave. As for what will happen to Xiao Yan after being attacked by the black dragon, that is another consideration. Xiao Yan had a feeling that he would not die, he would definitely not die, but he would fall into the hands of the Holy See. The Holy See restrained the black dragon by restraining him. So that this black dragon will continue to serve the Holy See.
That's the problem. The Tree of Shijie only wants to get the black dragon out of the cave, and the Lord wants to use this opportunity to regain control of the black dragon.
Xiao Yan must decide whether or not to let the "Lord's" intentions be rewarded.
Of course, he hoped more that he could enslave the black dragon in front of him, and at the same time not be controlled by the Holy See. But it's a thing to dance on the tip of a knife, and it's not as easy as you think. Wanting to use the oracle of the "Lord" for his own benefit, and then putting the Holy See aside and getting all the benefits for himself, this kind of thing would probably not be strange if it was put on the fourteen-year-old Fleman, but if it was put on the will of Xiao Yan, of course, he would not be so easily fooled.
"You've heard the oracle, haven't you?"
Xiao Yan suddenly asked, "So you didn't plan to launch a real attack on me just now, because you don't want to be my slave yet." You want to get out of this cave easily, not as a human slave. β
The black dragon squinted at Xiao Yan and said, "What do you want?" It's impossible to return the gems to you. β
The brown-haired boy shook his head and said, "I'm just confirming this, it's not me who makes the decision here, it's you." Even if I don't lift your seal, you won't take the initiative to attack me, because it will be neither you nor me who will benefit the most. You are not stupid enough to give the Holy See a chance to enslave you in the future for the sake of immediate freedom. β
The black dragon was quiet for a while, looked at Xiao Yan and said, "So, what do you want?" β
"It's not that I think, Mr. Black Dragon. It's you, I can turn around and leave without any repercussions. But you either seize the opportunity in front of you, or you never have it again. β
"Name your terms."
"The Holy See wants to use the oracle to enslave you through me, and the premise of this chain is that you have launched an attack on me. In other words, if you don't attack me, you won't touch the oracle, there will be no possibility of me enslaving you, and the Holy See won't be able to reap the ultimate benefits. β
Xiao Yan looked at the black dragon and said, "So, what price are you willing to pay for your freedom?" β
"A legendary black dragon became a servant of you and your descendant VII, what do you think can be compared to such a price? Or don't you want that to happen? β
The black dragon said with some indignation: "That 'Lord' has been watching us, and he will do everything he can to achieve his goal. That's a cunning guy who always wants to get the most out of the process. β
Xiao Yan smiled slightly and said, "I don't want this to happen, I mean, the seventh generation is too long, and I don't even know how long my descendants will reproduce." So, if you agree, two lives are enough. And not a slave, but the guardian of my family, I am the lord of a territory in WΓΌrttemberg. If you wish, I can paint your image in the family coat of arms. You've got enough freedom, I mean, after me and my first offspring, you can do whatever you want. β
The black dragon's eyes shrank suddenly, and after a while, he said, "You will make the 'Lord' angry like this." β
Xiao Yan nodded and said, "Of course, I know this, but I also know how to calm the Lord's anger. Now the problem is not between me and the Lord, but with you. Well, I've got a showdown, now tell me your options. β
Staring at the dragon, Xiao Yan said, "Either become the guardian of my family, and after two generations, you can do whatever you want." to pay the price I paid for breaking the seal for you. Or just suddenly go crazy and attack me, and then become a slave under the indirect control of the Holy See for hundreds of years. β
"You're more cunning than I thought, and you're more like a nobleman."
The black dragon said suddenly.
Xiao Yan saluted and responded: "They all say that, I'm used to it." (To be continued......)
