Chapter 49: Engagement

Running all the way, the scenery around him swept by, and Jones hesitated.

Andrew, who was being dragged by Jones, hurriedly shouted, "I agree!"

"Are you sure? Mr. Blood Elf. Ansel asked softly.

"Of course, can I still disagree? What reason do I have to disagree with such a good condition?"

"Declare in advance that if anyone accepts this agreement and then breaks it, then I will definitely kill him. Maybe it's not just about killing, it's probably torture, and it's going to make sure that the soul is destroyed as well. Even if I don't do it, someone else will do it for me. Those who break the covenant, gods and demons cannot be saved. Are you sure you want to accept this agreement?"

"Uh......" Even Andrew hesitated.

"Why do you add this paragraph? Because I'm serious, serious. Death may not be the end. If you choose to reach an agreement and then break the contract, then the end will be countless times worse than being killed directly by the Tomb Keeper. I hope you will think clearly and recognize what you are facing. Ahem......"

......

In the distance, in the same dark underworld, Anse El coughed violently, blue fluorescent reflections on his haggard face.

"I'm sorry, I just woke up, so I'm still not in good shape. What I want to tell you is that we have waited 10,000 years and paid untold prices, and nothing can stop us from reviving Krimasha. For this goal, we can do whatever it takes. Including our own lives, too, are chips on the table. cough cough cough cough ...... In the event of a broken contract, there will be a disciplinary action. There will be people who inflict pain on you that you can't even imagine, not for the sake of gaining anything, but for punishment, or even for simple revenge. ”

Ansel's tone was slow, weak, but uncommensurably determined.

"I'm actually very disgusted by your move into the ruins. This place does not belong to you. It belongs to the remnants of Krimasha. But I understand, after all, you probably don't know what's inside. Otherwise, you would not have entered so hastily, and you would not have been so embarrassed in the face of the Tomb Keeper. But that's about it, my position only allows me to give understanding, not sympathy. Compassion is too much of a luxury for us. Jones. ”

......

"Huh?" Jones, who was flying rapidly, seemed to wake up.

"To the left. Ansel reminded softly.

"Good...... Okay!" Jones quickly changed direction and carried Andrew through a door at a rapid pace. Dora, Turu, and Lucy followed.

"Anse Elle. During the flight, Jones suddenly spoke: "I'm not sure if you're by that name." ”

"Yes, that's my name, though no one has called me that in a long time. Have you made a decision? Tell me about your decision. Anse El's voice echoed in Jones's head.

"Perhaps...... Maybe we can come to another agreement. Jones struggled to hold up a smile and said, "Maybe we can take the same side." I mean, we can be compatible with each other. I'm also a remnant of Krimasha, am I? The ancestors of the Blood Clan are the failure of Krimasha's human improvement plans, and I am their descendant. In fact, all humans are remnants of Klimasa. Their ancestors may have been refugees who had been locked up outside shelters, or they could have been at the bottom of the ladder and couldn't figure out what was going on from beginning to end, or maybe even what you call the leftists. They have illusions about gods and demons and use the wrong way, but you have to admit that they are still with Krimasha. They are your allies, not enemies. It may not only be you, but many, many others who wish for the revival of Krimasha. You are not alone. I...... I might be able to help you with something. ”

......

In the distance, Ansel's eyes slowly widened and fell silent.

Eugene, an artificial consciousness, was silently levitating, quietly watching Ansel with his hands propped up on the console.

"You can think about my suggestion, really, it probably makes more sense than the choice you gave us. We have a common enemy, and we can also have a common goal. I'm working on arming humanity, and maybe you can help me too. We also have the White Bone Holy Light Holy See, even if it is discovered by the gods and demons, it may not necessarily cause an accident. Jones continued.

Anse El was silent for a few moments before he whispered, "Thank you, Jones. Thank you, really. I would also like to see you one day. But alas, not now. I can't afford to risk this secret leaking. It's not that I don't trust you, it's that no one can afford this responsibility, it's too big. The right choice for us must be to lurk until everyone awakens and is fully capable. Until then, there should be no changes to the plan that would have gone smoothly and no additional risks should be introduced. I hope you understand. ”

"But ......"

"No, but. Anse El replied earnestly: "My mission is to fulfill the instructions conscientiously, and nothing can be changed." ”

......

Jones didn't speak again.

Instead, Andrew shouted, "Wait! I have a small suggestion, and of course, it may not be small." Maybe you're ...... You, Lord Ansel, can teach us a little bit of some of Krimasha's magical techniques. Jones needs it so much right now, very, very much! You don't want to wait until you're bathed in the sun again and find that the whole world has been completely controlled by the gods and demons, right? In that case, the so-called rise will be very difficult!"

"Shut up Andrew!" Jones shouted.

"No, you've got to let me finish!Anse El! Just a little, of course, if there were more, it would be better! Even if it's not an ally, wouldn't it be nice to have one more force in the world that is friendly to Krimasha?"

"Shut up! Andrew, I'll drop you down if you make another noise!"

"Okay, I'm not noisy! But I actually have a few more words to say!"

"You've said enough!"

"No! it's not enough! Ansel! We need the power of Krimasha! The Bloods are also remnants! All humans are remnants! Help us to your advantage! A powerful White Bone Holy Light Holy See can keep the gods and demons troubled! They will be even more unable to do anything to you, will they?"

"Andrew!"

"I'm done!Please think about it!I'm a blood elf, but I'm genuinely willing to work with Krimasha!More than ever!And if I can get Krimasha's magical mysteries...... That's what we want, so why should we talk about it? Wouldn't that be safer?"

"Andrew!"

......

In the distance, Anse El listened quietly to the quarrel between Jones and Andrew, looking tired.

After a while, he whispered, "Jones, go down." ”

......

"Down?" Jones, who was walking down the long staircase, paused in the air.

"Whew!" Andrew fell.

Dora and Lucy passed Jones at once, flew to the front, and hurriedly hovered.

......

"Yes, down. Anse El whispered, "I want to trust you and help Mega Snake City within a limited scope. And, of course, the White Bone Holy Light Holy See. I can give you Krimartha's magic technique. Of course, only partially. The ruins you're in have all the top-notch magic technology that has been destroyed. For the rest, you won't be able to figure out the answer. It is even misleading. But there are still some useful ones left. I can tell you which ones. ”

......

Andrew was in ecstasy.

Jones was stunned and stunned for a while: "You've been using 'you' for me." It's because ......"

......

"Because that's what I've been used to since I was a kid, and for no other particular reason. Anse El whispered, "Next, I'll tell you which ones. It should help you. I heard that during the time I was asleep, the condition of the White Bone Holy Light Holy Light Holy See was not particularly good. Hopefully I'll hear some good news the next time I wake up. ”

......

"Thank you, Ansel. ”

......

"Maybe it's time for me to thank you. You are the first in many years to discover this secret and are willing to help us. I still can't trust you absolutely. Anse El smiled and said, "But maybe I should support you a little bit too." ”

......

With Ansel leading the way, the rest is easy.

Anse El was able to circumvent all the Grave Keepers perfectly, saving Jones and Andrew the time and danger of searching the ruins aimlessly.

Of course, since it wasn't an aimless search, Jones couldn't have found anything like his previous diary. Although, in Jones's view, that kind of thing is perhaps more important.

In the depths of the ruins, Jones found a place full of discarded magic items.

"Everything here is damaged, in fact it's all waste that hasn't had time to clean up. But it should be enlightening to you. Moreover, these things are especially suitable for human use, they were originally designed for humans. With the help of the Lich, it should only take a while to restore them. But you may not be able to take them all, and you can only pick some of the more important or representative ones. ”

Under the guidance of Anse Els, Jones also found several hidden magic books.

"Actually, it's just a basic magic book, but it's completely different from the magic system of the lich, the Holy Spirit, and the demon lord, and it should be able to help you. Crucially, the things contained in these spellbooks are particularly suitable for human magicians. They were written for humans in the first place. Although they are not complicated, there are countless pioneers of magic who have devoted their lives to them. ”

"What about the Tomb Keeper?" Andrew asked, "Actually, what we value most is the Tomb Keeper, the Extraterritorial Summoning Technique. These are the ones that can really pose a threat to gods and demons. ”

That positive appearance, as if he was the lord of Giant Snake City.

Jones stood by and looked at him silently.

......

"That can't be given to you. Anse El said softly, "Not only will I not give you anything about extraterritorial summoning, but I will not give you anything about space magic or creature improvement magic." In fact, there is no such thing here, and all high-level magic materials have long been destroyed. By the way, you only have one chance. Take as much as you can, all you need. As soon as you leave, I will activate all the Grave Keepers. It's going to be a purgatory. It will take at least a hundred years for the Tomb Keeper to subdue and re-enter a dormant state. In a hundred years, even if you remember the path I led you on, you will not be able to enter this place again. ”

......

"Okay, thanks. Andrew clutched the spellbook tightly and smiled awkwardly.

"Jones, you shouldn't have a problem then, right?" asked Anse Elle.

"No, it won't. I understand how you feel. Jones replied.

......

"Thank you for your understanding. Anse El smiled, "Alright, it's almost time." It's time for you to get out of here. The people outside the ruins were already waiting impatiently. ”

......

"Someone outside the ruins?" Jones was stunned for a moment, "Adair?"

......

"Yes. Turning his face sideways, Ansel looked to the side at another apparition. In the video, Adair is standing outside the ruins with William, looking anxious. A large number of lichs had gathered around: "I'm surprised that Adair is still standing with you. ”

......

"Because we are members of the same brotherhood. Jones said seriously: "It's all thanks to you, and we wouldn't know each other without you." ”

......

Anse El was silent, looking at Jones in the video. He smiled faintly.

"Needless to say, time is pressing, bring what you want, what you think you need. Bring as many as you can, after all, I can't explain to you all what you've gotten. And then...... Leave. You know what I mean?"

......

"Yes. Jones nodded.

"Next, Eugene will guide you out. ”

"Eugene?"

"That's it...... A magical consciousness. Consciousness created by magic, completely following the orders of its master. Not really conscious, so you don't have to try to communicate with him further. ”

Jones nodded, "Okay, hopefully we'll see each other one day." ”

......

Anse El was silent for a long time before he let out a long sigh, "Hopefully." ”

All the apparitions from afar are gone. Only the eternal darkness of the underworld remains, as well as Ansel, and Eugene.

"I'm afraid you're not doing that in line with your strategy. Eugene whispered.

Looking at Eugene, Ansel said tiredly, "Yes, but I have the right to make some adjustments when I think it is necessary." Isn't it?"

"There's nothing wrong with that. Your grandfather, my creator trusts you absolutely. Trust your character, trust your ability, trust your judgment. He has granted you the highest authority. You have the right to make any decision. ”

"Do as I want, and take them out of the shelter. ”

"Yes. ”

Eugene, the phantom of the face made of blue fluorescence also disappeared. In the darkness, Anse Air was left alone.
