Chapter 431: The Blood of Sin
After speaking, Pan Xi moved again, and Duke Garcia's hands fell off automatically, and then two long-handled machetes were turned out from them.
Anya remained motionless, but she knew she was in big trouble.
Stannis looked up at the sky, and the sun was still half an hour away, and that was the time of his own death.
On the ground, the commoners and nobles were still on their knees, and it seemed that Pedro enjoyed the feeling of being worshipped.
"That's right. Pedro remembered one more thing, and he decided to provoke Stannis one more time before he died, "That so-called Anya of yours should be dead by now." ”
But Stannis didn't beat his chest as he imagined, and was tied to an iron pillar and swayed back and forth like a barbecued char, and if the woman had abandoned him so ruthlessly, why did he care about her life or death?
His reaction disappointed Pedro, and he hoped that the man would add a little more to his laughter, but now he was really bored.
"Don't you want to know why she died?"
Stannis didn't even bother to lift his eyelids this time.
However, Pedro still said to himself, he had been holding back for too long, and he thought that the man in front of him was actually the same kind of person as himself, and only he could understand what he was doing.
"You're such an interesting fellow, but I'll tell you how stupid the woman you love is, and she doesn't have to take the initiative to take revenge on me, because her enemy, my father, is long dead. ”
His words finally succeeded in attracting Stannis's attention, "Dead, what do you mean!"
Pedro laughed like a child, and he scooped up the long sleeves of his purple robe, revealing his white arms from underneath, which were covered with horrific tattoos, and those twisted patterns were like the words of a lost civilization, which could drive people crazy just by looking at them.
"That's where my strength comes from, and this tattoo is the power given to me by my owner. But you know that the King of Labyrinths is not good at giving strength for nothing, and he always asks the giver to give an equal price, in His words, a fair deal. ”
Of course, Stannis knew this about the Abyssal One, and the Lord of the Deep Sky Star Sea had tempted him to make such a deal, "Offer your loved ones, and it will fulfill all your wishes." ”
"That's right, so how do you think I got this power over the world?"
It only took a second to think about Stannis to come up with an answer, and he shouted in astonishment: "Is it difficult...... Could it be that you sacrificed your father!"
Pedro nodded, he had only gained such great power by killing his father, but a father alone could not satisfy his ambitions.
"You're right, but I'm not entirely right, because I have to get my father's approval to become a duke, and a dead duke obviously can't canonize his sons, so what I have to do at first is to sacrifice the woman I love and the child she secretly gave birth to with me, and get the power from my master to charm others. ”
When he said these words again, he finally became emotional, and it was only then that Pedro became a little human, and he had loved until he was martyred for his ambition.
"After sacrificing the woman and her child," Pedro seemed to say something else, "I have gained enough power to charm my father, and although he is still the same as before, he has actually obeyed me. ”
It is no wonder that this inconspicuous eighth son of the duke can become extremely popular in just one year and become a popular candidate for the next duke, not because of any miracle, but because he completely sold his soul.
"But that's not enough, although I can get my father's approval, I know that if I don't have a lot of power, there will be many people who will disagree with me, especially my lovely brother. ”
Stannis glanced at Hunian and saw that he was still as untouched as a dead man.
"So three months ago I made another deal with my master, to sacrifice my father, to give me the power of this right arm, so that I could destroy everything!"
The man tied to the iron pillar began to tremble, he had already seen the darkness of this world, but he didn't expect that this darkness was far from the lower limit, and the evil of human nature was once again revealed in front of his eyes.
"How can you do that? He's your father after all!"
"Father?" said the word clearly with his tongue and lips twice, and suddenly he began to laugh out loud like all madmen, "Father, I am doing this to learn from my good and respectable father! Why do you think he became the ruler of this country from a destitute nobleman with nothing? it is because he sacrificed the woman he loved the most, that is, my mother!!"
What? Duke Garcia also made a deal with the Abyss Master!
This news is the first time Stannis has learned, but now that I think about it, there is indeed a clue, otherwise why the always wise and martial Duke Griffin suddenly obeyed his words like a demon, and now that I think about it, the bloodline of the entire family of the Golden Griffin has almost been cut off, and it must be Duke Garcia's stalk.
But Stannis still has a question, since Duke Garcia has lost his conscience, why not kill his illegitimate son together?
"He sacrificed your mother, why did he bring you back, did he think he was sorry for you?"
It's just that Pedro's smile made Stannis completely desperate, "I thought the same thing, but a year ago I found my father kneeling in front of a dark-haired boy and begging him to give Hunian the same strength, and at the cost of my life. But the boy rejected him, because the father had no love for me as a son, and my existence turned out to be just a bargaining chip that he could use to trade. After learning the truth of all things, I did not hesitate to crawl at the feet of the Lord of the Abyss, and at that moment I had already given up everything I had. After sacrificing my lover, my son, and my father, now I am the king of the land!"
What kind of family is this? Without the slightest morality, the husband sacrifices his wife, the father abandons his children, and the son kills his father, tearing away some of the so-called blood tenderness, and presenting this greatest evil blood in the world.
Is this what the King of Labyrinths wants, play with everyone!
