If possible, Qin Lun hoped to be able to delay a few days before replying to Baron Albert, so that the credibility would be higher. It's just that he has entered this world until now, and about half a month has passed. Although he felt that he was slowly approaching the heart of the mission, he was running out of time.

Therefore, after dinner, Qin Lun took the initiative to find Baron Albert and expressed his willingness to join the exorcist camp and contribute to the protection of the Odia region.

Baron Albert was very happy and led Qin Lun and Bony to a secondary castle hall on the right side of the main castle.

The hall is actually a library, surrounded by tall bookshelves and rows of well-maintained hardcover books that even smell the scent of ink. Above these shelves, numerous portraits of people hang from them.

These portraits are male and female, and judging by their faces, they all bear some resemblance to Baron Albert and Bonie, and they should all look like the ancestors of the Albert family.

Qin Lun's gaze fell on a portrait of a person in the center of the bookshelves at the back of the hall. The portrait is twice as large as the other portraits, and depicts a tall knight in plate armor.

The knight held his helmet in his left hand and stuck his great sword into the ground as a crutch in his right hand. He stood on the top platform of Albert Castle, staring intently at the great forest of Maia in front of him.

Underneath the painting, there is a line of small letters.

"A thousand years of duty, a thousand years of protection, a thousand years of glory! We are Albert of Odia! ”

A very familiar phrase! Qin Lun's eyes flashed and he rubbed his temples.

In the center of this library is a small salon with a large round coffee table and rattan chairs.

"Dr. Stan, it's great to have you on board! You may be seated! Baron Albert picked a rattan chair and sat down, and stretched out his hand to signal Qin Lun to sit down.

"Your Excellency, is there any ritual required to join the Exorcist?" Qin Lun asked with a smile.

"Haha, no, no!" Baron Albert smiled and waved his hand, "The Exorcist is not a religious organization, on the contrary, it is more of a loose mutual aid group. As long as there is an introduction from the old members, anyone can become an exorcist, but if you want to become an exorcist, you must have the courage and will to fight evil! ”

"It's an honor for the Stan family to serve the exorcists!" Qin Lun leaned over slightly, "In the future, I will ask His Excellency the Baron for more advice!" ”

"I can't talk about advice, since I introduced you to the club, then I naturally want to tell you some historical truths and the purpose of our exorcists!" Baron Albert took the glass from Bony and shook it gently in his hand, his gaze a little confused in his memory.

More than 3,000 years ago, there were various thriving human settlements on the continent. The increase in productivity led to the gradual emergence of classes and kingdoms in these human settlements, and humans at the top of the pyramid began to enslave others.

A great deal of wealth is concentrated in the hands of a few, who, after satisfying the most basic food and clothing, begin to pursue spiritual emancipation. Some of them devote all their energies to the noble cause of improving the overall well-being of humanity. Others are looking for higher personal pleasures and trying to prolong their lives.

Over time, the former group of virtuous people developed the concept of faith and began to spread the gospel on the continent. They hope that all human beings can have a spiritual sustenance, emancipate their minds and souls, and maintain a positive and optimistic attitude even in harsh living conditions.

The latter kind of self-interested people frantically began to amass wealth, persecute people, and plunder the lands of other countries. And use his wealth and knowledge to begin to study the mysteries of immortality.

Different from the time and space of the earth where Qin Lun was located, in the long river of time, both of these two people had discovered the mystery of immortality, as well as some other powerful spells.

However, the mystery of immortality discovered by these two types of people is not the same, and the former type of person has obtained the mystery of "immortality" through guò faith and firm will. And what the latter kind of people get is the real mystery of "immortality".

The mystery of "immortality" requires a pure heart and a strong will, and they call themselves "people of faith." The mystery of "immortality" relies on external forces, and they name it "witchcraft" and use "witchcraft" to create evil magical creatures, calling themselves "wizards".

Not only do believers and sorcerers gain diametrically opposed powers, but they are also at opposite extremes of the spectrum. Soon they had irreconcilable contradictions, and the war began!

At the beginning of the war, because the requirements for the birth of believers were too high, and it was relatively easy for wizards to rely on external forces, the believers were defeated one after another. However, at this time, ordinary people who had been oppressed and persecuted by shamans for a long time began to join the camp of believers.

These ordinary people do not have a long lifespan, but they account for 99.9% of the human world, and when united, they almost defeat the wizards. In the long war, some ordinary people also gained considerable combat effectiveness.

Under the advocacy of the believers, these powerful ordinary people united with the believers and jointly established the Exorcist Organization. The purpose of the Exorcist Organization is to exorcise "wizards" and their magical creatures and protect the human world.

In the final battle, most of the male wizards disappeared into the world, leaving only a few female wizards to flee into the forests, deserts, mountains, swamps, etc., and the living conditions were the worst.

The believers' camp was also greatly traumatized, and the remaining believers felt that whether it was the mystery of immortality or the mystery of immortality, there were too many temptations for ordinary humans.

Therefore, they used their lives to unleash a powerful guardian spell that sealed the mysteries of these two laws of this world forever. Aside from the remaining witches and a small number of potions in their hands that could give birth to the undead, the world could no longer give birth to any immortals and immortals.

The noble idea that believers will sacrifice at all in order to protect the world has touched all exorcists. They have vowed to protect these two secrets and will never see the light of day, and are willing to hunt down the witches who have returned to the human world for generations, as well as the magical creatures they have created.

In the years that followed, witches gathered their strength and repeatedly attacked the human world from all corners. Although they were all defeated by the Exorcist Organization, the ordinary people in the human world also suffered heavy casualties.

On this premise, the exorcist made a deal with the witch. Witches and their magical creatures no longer appear to ordinary people, and exorcists no longer hunt down witches who settle in remote corners.

The term of this agreement is one thousand years, and the exorcists believe that after a thousand years, humanity will be more powerful and a few witches will not be enough. The witches, on the other hand, believe that after a thousand years, the exorcists will lose their faith and inheritance powers, and they will be able to rule the world again, and use the power of the world's laws to break the guardian spells of believers and start the era of great wizards.

"The agreement between the witch and the exorcist is called the thousand-year pact, and now it has only been more than three hundred years!" The old baron shook his glass and drank it all in one gulp.

"Is there a witch in the Great Maia Forest?" Qin Lun's eyes flashed, and he asked quietly.

"There is more than one witch in the Great Maiya Forest, the territory of this forest is too large, and there are more than a dozen witches hiding in it. Unless humans burn down the entire Maiya Forest, as many people will die as many people as they enter under the cover of the terrain. Baron Albert said with a wry smile, "If it weren't for that, those witches would have been wiped out by the exorcist organization hundreds of years ago!" ”

"Doctor Stan doesn't have to worry, there is actually only one witch near the edge of the Odia region. And the exorcists surrounding the Great Maia Forest are not only our Albert family, there are five exorcist families in the Maiya Forest in the Principality of Maiser. Bony added with a smile.

"Since there is a thousand-year-old contract, why is my entourage still attacked by gargoyles near the castle?" Qin Lun suddenly frowned and asked.

The Baron and Bony looked at each other, and the old Baron explained, "No contract can be perfect, and the Millennium Pact has its flaws. At that time, when the contract was signed, the magic oath limited the attacks of witches and magical creatures on humans, but it did not include the magical creatures that witches remade after that! ”

"So, those cunning witches took advantage of this loophole and often sent newly made magical creatures to attack humans?" Qin Lun's eyebrows raised slightly, "Is this useful?" ”

"Well, they have limited resources at hand, and the purpose of doing so is to take individual humans into slavery and use them to test all kinds of evil black magic!" Bony nodded and said in a deep voice, "However, we are also the same, the exorcist family often allows some members to avoid the oath and enter the Maia Great Forest to detect the witches' movements. ”

"So, those gargoyles on the stone bridge of the castle ......" Qin Lun rolled his eyes and asked softly.

"Only a few are, the rest are real stone statues!" Bony said with a smile.

"Dr. Stan, do you have any questions?" Baron Albert looked at Qin Lun with a smile.

"Well, one last question!" Qin Lun pondered for a moment, then asked, "Is this plague the work of a witch?" ”

"We don't know yet, but using the epidemic virus to massively reduce the humans in the Odia region will indeed help them break out of the Maiya Forest in the future!" The baron's eyes flashed and he replied calmly, but Bony hesitated and kept silent.

The reactions of the two fell into Qin Lun's eyes, but he didn't question the two of them anymore, just smiled and nodded.

"Doctor Stan, in two days, we will organize a scout team to enter the Maiya Forest, I wonder if you are interested in entering with the scout team as a team doctor!" Baron Albert asked sternly.

"Hehe, if this is the Exorcist's test for newcomers, I'd be happy to show you the courage of the Stan family!" Qin Lun raised his wine glass and saluted the two Alberts opposite.
