Chapter 271: Demon Warlock
While Jack and Sully were in the awkward position of not being able to completely deal with the gargoyle, Andy was groping in the dark, as if his soul had left his body with the black air current, and had come to this place that looked like an abyss.
That's right, Andy's place now is like the abyss where he saw Menetha, the goddess of despair, in a dark chaos, with no light, no sound, as if time had stopped here, plunging it into eternal darkness.
Andy stopped, his front and back were the same, he couldn't tell the direction here, so he simply stopped, he didn't know why he was here, but he thought it was the curse just now.
Or is it not actually a curse?
"You're the first to come here, little one. ”
An old and frail voice came from behind Andy, his eyes widened, and he quickly turned around.
Behind Andy stood a scrawny old man, his eye sockets were deep, and his exposed hands and face were skinny and bone, which made people feel a sense of pity when they looked at it, as if this was a guy who would be blown down by a gust of wind.
But the old man's eyes were very sharp, as if there was an ambitious soul hidden in this rotten body.
"You're the demon wizard who left the Stone Gate?"
Andy looked at the old man, and he asked in a deep voice, in fact, Andy already had the answer in his heart, because this old man's dress and appearance were exactly the same as the dark wizard that people thought in their hearts.
Old and scrawny, like a candle about to be extinguished, but seemingly weak is actually immensely powerful, in the company of the undead and corpses, spreading sickness and curse.
There is no doubt that Andy had such an idea as soon as he saw this old guy.
"Giggle......"
The old man laughed softly, and his voice made Andy's face stiffen unconsciously, as if he was a criminal person about to step into a coffin, using his last life to bring the last horror to the world.
A kind of laughter that makes you fall into a nightmare when you listen to it.
"I prefer to be called ...... Demon Warlock!"
The old man said suspiciously, and he looked at Andy with scrutiny and appreciation in his eyes.
"Warlocks are dark wizards who are obsessed with studying the roots of demonic power, and in pursuit of the power of the roots, they can even dedicate their souls to eternal darkness...... Since you can get here, then you must have pushed open the cursed door with your own hands, and received some of the power I left behind, and...... With that power, he killed a gargoyle servant with his own hands......"
Andy nodded thoughtfully, and he replied, "It sounds like a hassle, but it seems to be true. ”
The cursed door in the old man's mouth should be the gate of the boulder, he did push open the gate of the boulder with his own hands, and the heart of the ocean also absorbed a part of the black mist, Andy originally thought that it was because of the heart of the ocean, it seems that if someone else pushed open the gate of the boulder, he can also absorb the power above.
And he did use that power when he dealt with the gargoyle.
"The more powerful the power, the more complex the corresponding contract, and you will only be here if these conditions are met. ”
"Then why am I here?"
Andy looked at the old man cautiously, and some bad rumors suddenly rose in his heart, it seems that some wizards who have studied souls will hide their souls in the so-called treasures after their deaths, and once someone tries to get the treasure, they will be extracted by the wizard and replaced the other party with their own souls.
"Giggles...... the old man laughed again, he seemed to be happy about what was going on, he looked at Andy, his old wrinkled face twitched, "Don't worry about anything, I'm not interested in you...... All my life is to seek knowledge and power, although my body has decayed, but my soul lives forever in this darkness!"
"I don't understand. ”
Andy said, he was still wary of this old guy, this is not something that can be lifted in three or two sentences, what demons are best at is deception and demagogy, who knows if this demon warlock is the same.
"On the wall outside my collection room, there is a demon pattern painted by the blood of a young girl, which I left behind when I was controlled by the demon's bewitchment, and when I wake up, I can't destroy it anymore due to the power of the contract......"
The old man's eyes dimmed for a moment, and suddenly became a little cloudy, and he took a few steps forward tremblingly, and then continued:
"My power comes from it, although it was defeated by the Seraphim, but it left behind the fire, I got my strength from the fire, but I was also unconsciously controlled, leaving something terrible, when that cliff wall absorbs enough sinful blood and greedy souls, it will awaken, and my soul will become its nourishment......"
The old man suddenly laughed evilly, he looked a little crazy, and the momentum of the whole person became evil and powerful.
"But that damn, greedy creature underestimated me! it didn't think I could have studied the demon's power so thoroughly, and I left a power and pact on the Cursed Gate in order to find someone who could destroy it before it awakened!"
"So, is that me?"
Andy was silent for a moment, looked at the old guy with madness and fear in his eyes, and asked.
"Of course...... Cute little guy, only those who can withstand the power of the cursed gate can withstand the power of demons, although I don't know what the curse on your body is, but it seems that you have been turned into an undead by the power of the curse, and you will not be afraid of its power, plus my method, you can completely destroy it......"
The old man said with his hands dancing, he looked very excited, the demon who was about to awaken was his henchman, because of the power of the contract, in front of the demon, he was a lamb to the slaughter.
His power comes from demons, and he is therefore subject to demons, and once the demons awaken, he will never recover, which also makes him spend his life exploring the relevant ruins and finding solutions to problems, which also makes him know many secrets that should not be known.
In ancient times, there were indeed warlocks, who threw themselves into darkness in pursuit of the truth of power, and powerful warlocks could even summon or enslave a real demon through a contract, but later, for some unknown reason, this power became taboo and disappeared into the torrent of history.
It's just that now, it's already a world of black witchcraft and curses, and even if it's him, the strongest power is only the cursed power from the demons.
And he has explored all his life, but he has not been able to discover the power of the contract to re-enslave the demons.
However, he found a way to kill the demon once and for all.
Let me think about it, hmm...... How many gold coins and treasures do you need to collect to help kill a demon?Why don't you just collect tickets!!
