Chapter 53: Rooftop Chatter (I)
At night, the bright moon hung high in the sky, and the tragic scene on the land of District 11 did not affect its mood at all, and it still sprinkled a bright cold light.
On the roof of the bungalow, Uncle Lei sat alone, with two pots of wine and some appetizers next to him.
Warrier's body was returned to the sanctuary and cremated by members of the Society. After all, Warrill is the current supreme person in charge of Yoder City, and if he does not explain his affairs clearly, declaring him dead will cause unnecessary trouble, and it will also cause unease among the majority of residents.
With Warrill gone, the burden of responsibility unexpectedly fell to Tiger, who was the oldest of the remaining men, and no one was competing with him for the laborious position.
"It's not a good thing for uncle to drink alone."
Zhou Yao climbed onto the roof, came to Uncle Lei's side, grabbed a handful of peanuts, and said.
"How's Ru Xue?" Glancing at Zhou Yao, Uncle Lei said casually in a low mood.
"You've put up several sleeping spells, and of course it's impossible to wake up. If I'm not at ease, I'll let Saki take care of her 24 hours a day? Zhou Yao said with a wry smile.
As if in response to his call, the air behind him twisted slightly, and Sakiya appeared in form and was ready to stand.
"No, let's do it first, I'll go down with her in a while." Uncle Lei shook his head and said in a dull voice.
Infected by his emotions, even Zhou Yao felt that the air had become a little depressing. In order to break this atmosphere, Zhou Yao tried to comfort him.
"As long as you're still 'alive', it's a great luck in misfortune, take it easy, uncle."
This is Zhou Yao's consolation to Uncle Lei, and it is also his consolation to himself, otherwise he would not be able to let go.
Even if you become a Dead Apostle, it is much better than just die......
"Maybe so...... It's not that I didn't think that this would happen, but I didn't expect it to be Warrill who did it, and he ......" Uncle Lei's words were full of bitterness, and Warrill's betrayal hit him no weaker than the fact that Lei Ruxue was about to become a Dead Apostle.
"Well, Warrier...... Uncle he...... It was also because of the influence of becoming a Dead Apostle that he became like that, and he was to blame or Odd. Zhou Yao paused and said.
"I know that, but the impact may be just an introduction, and Warrill may have thought so in his heart." After taking a sip of wine, Uncle Lei said in a depressed tone.
He remembered Warrill's last words before he died, and couldn't help but take two more sips of wine to suppress the emotions that welled up in his heart.
"Uh, this...... Maybe. Zhou Yao was speechless.
Listening to Warrier's words, he did think so. If there is no root head, then the magnification will be zero no matter how many times it is magnified. Humans know how to limit their own **, but the Dead Apostles are not good at this, otherwise there would be no such thing as bloodsucking impulses.
"Hey, after so many years, I didn't expect him to still be able to let go of it. No wonder I've never been married. ”
What Uncle Lei said was a little difficult to understand, but Zhou Yao immediately understood it.
In his understanding, Uncle Lei, Warrill and Lei Ruxue's mother should be a typical triangular relationship, just like the kind in love comics?
And the final winner is Uncle Ray, so it is not incomprehensible that Warrill is still in love.
Hawkers, although he doesn't know much about this kind of feelings.
"Ru Xue's mother is called Bai Yin, can you tell me about her and the power in Ru Xue's body that Warrill has mentioned."
Talking to others more is also a way to vent your feelings, and this Zhou Yao still knows it.
And this is also what Zhou Yao wants to know the most, what is the true body of the power in Lei Ruxue's body, which must be suppressed through sealing.
In fact, Zhou Yao had already questioned why a magician as strong as Uncle Lei would take Lei Ruxue to live in seclusion in the town, and he had to seal Lei Ruxue's power.
Could it be that the so-called power is very ominous? Or will it cause trouble if it is allowed to wake up?
"Since you want to hear it, then I'll tell you about it, it was more than ten years ago......"
Uncle Lei fell into memories and recounted what had happened. Zhou Yao and Sakuya behind him acted as listeners and listened quietly.
It's a cliché story, two best friends fall in love with a powerful and beautiful woman at the same time, and then after a lot of competition, the woman chooses one of them.
The two best friends are, of course, Uncle Lei and Warrier, and that powerful and beautiful woman is Lei Ruxue's mother, Xi Baiyin.
"It's not an exaggeration to say that she is strong, at that time Warrill and I were a little famous in the association, but the two of us together are not enough for her to level with one hand, hehe." Recalling that experience, Uncle Lei, who had been emotionally suppressed, laughed softly rarely.
Seeing that he was no longer dull, Zhou Yao was also happy to follow and ask for details.
"So you've been mistreated?" Zhou Yao pretended to laugh and said.
"Hmph, I was young and vigorous at that time, and Bai Yin was one of the members of Kabbalah at that time, so of course my strength would be stronger than me." Uncle Lei glared at Zhou Yao with a little unpleasantness, as if he was making excuses for himself, and explained.
"Kabbalah?" Zhou Yao was naturally attracted by the novel vocabulary again.
"Well, the strongest force of the Gate of Truth is equivalent to the burial mechanism of the Church." Uncle Lei said with a sigh.
"The strongest force?"
Kabbalah Zhou Yao really hadn't heard of it, but he had heard of the church's burial organ, which could be said to be the strongest fighting organ under the church. The members inside are basically the strongest of the surrogates.
Although nominally part of the church, it is in fact close to an independent organization.
The so-called vicarious agents are the inquisitors of heresies in the Templar Church, responsible for excluding the executors of heresies that do not exist in the doctrine. And the strongest people in it are all strong people with perverted strength, because of the implementation of the "strength priority doctrine", and even the existence of the ancestor of the dead apostles in it, you can imagine how powerful the burial mechanism should be.
And the "Kabbalah" that Uncle Lei is talking about now can actually be compared with the burial agency, and Zhou Yao can't help but be curious.
"Of course, the door of truth...... It's still convenient to call it a guild. Guilds seek the strongest internal force and the strongest external weapons. The department that directly embodies these two principles is the Kabbalah. After stopping to take a sip of wine, Uncle Lei continued, and the decadence and dullness just now were swept away.
"There are ten members of the Kabbalah, and each member is a warrior himself, and each of them has inherited a set of heroic spirit weapons."
"Heroic Spirits, what is that?"
"Uh......" Hearing Zhou Yao's curious question, Uncle Lei was stunned.
Isn't it supposed to talk about the past? How did it now turn into satisfying his curiosity? Forget it, there's nothing wrong with that...... Uncle Lei thought so and continued to speak.
"I've only heard that the Heroic Spirit Armament is the inheritance of the Heroic Spirit Template, and to put it bluntly, it seems to be a spell that can be passed down from generation to generation. Not only will the Inheritor receive a bonus to his or her strength, but he will also be able to use the skills and Noble Phantasms of the corresponding Heroic Spirits. It can be said that it is a heroic human. ”
"If that's the case, it doesn't seem to be very strong, right?" Zhou Yao asked.
According to the meaning of Uncle Lei's words, the inheritor seems to have just omitted the process of accumulating strength, there are so many holders, and there are many strongmen designated, so it seems that the inheritor may not be so prominent.
"Of course, if you just inherit the Heroic Spirit template, it is not enough to be called the strongest force. However, Kabbalah's Heroic Spirit Armament is all inherited with divine attributes, and the level level is far beyond that of ordinary Heroic Spirits. Uncle Lei was prepared and said unhurriedly.
"Uh, the god attribute is very strong?"
Zhou Yao immediately thought of the attribute of "divinity".
It is said to be a pit because in Zhou Yao's impression, the heroic spirits with divinity are all used to be abused by Shining, because Shining has a heavenly lock that restrains divinity.
I don't know if the divine attributes and divinity that Uncle Lei said are the same ......
"Of course it's very strong, every set of Heroic Spirit Weapons contains the power of the gods." Uncle Lei said in a natural tone.
"The power of the gods, eh...... That must be very strong. ”
Zhou Yao didn't know much about the concept of gods, and in his opinion, the prototype of gods in this world should be natural phenomena or some kind of abstract concepts.
Contains the power of the gods, which means that you can control a certain phenomenon or concept?
…………
PS: As for the understanding of the gods, blank is understood in this way, as if the god of wind symbolizes the natural phenomenon of wind, and the god of music symbolizes the concept of music.
