Chapter 195: The Truth

In Hugo's impression, Christianity began to spread to England on a large scale It seems that it should be after the 6th century AD, that is to say, Francis lived at least in 600 AD or even later, and it is not a short time from now, this time should be the time when the Christian faith began to explode on a large scale, in England around the first millennium AD, Christianity has been very common, even in the countryside is full of devout believers, it can be said that the Holy See has been doing a good job in mission!

Then Francis and Shortleg should be just in time for the time period when Christian missionaries went to England to preach on a large scale, and in such a large era background, the most worthy of people's vigilance and fear is undoubtedly the Holy See with fanatical believers! If there is any conflict with the Holy See, I am afraid it will really be difficult! This is also the reason why the two of them are very concerned about the Lareol hermitage.

Hugo wanted to know if there was something going on between them and the Holy See, but he looked at the bloodstained and pitted parchment in his hand, and the resentment in his heart continued to increase with the lack of the content of the record, since he had the habit of writing a diary, why not just write it clearly? Even if the parchment was magically processed, the habit of personal handwriting, the incinerated parts, and all kinds of stains made Hugo's process of distinguishing the contents of the parchment very unsmooth, and very incoherent.

For example, what happened next? Did Francis and Short-Legs come into contact with or even clash with the Lareor Order? Who is the mysterious family that the ancestors of the short-legged side branch followed? And why did they leave them? What kind of family can make the elves who are obsessed with human domination follow?

Hugo secretly felt that this was a very important thing! It may even be the crux of the whole incident! But this part of the content was burned! At this time, Hugo, like the King of Death, scolded the stupid exorcist in his heart, and had no concept of protecting cultural relics! He deserved to be killed!

When I find the part that can clearly distinguish the content again,,It's already broken off from the previous record.,A lot of things can't be connected.,Most of the middle plots can only be guessed.。。。

For some unknown reason, the two peculiar explorers crossed the treacherous English Channel to Calais, France, on a sea ship! and then continued south, and their destination seemed to be straight to Limoges! It seems that they may have received very useful information, otherwise it would have been too child's play and too casual to have traveled thousands of miles to explore with a single place name, and it could not have been the behavior of an experienced explorer, but unfortunately the reason for this is not recorded, and it may have been burned.

Along the way, the atmosphere between the two seems to have been relatively solemn, during this time Francis's diary is mostly a simple record of daily life, in addition to a few places actually mentioned the mysterious family that was followed by the short-legged ancestor!

However, it seems that Francis is very secretive about that family, and there is no name or origin for them from the remaining notes so far, and if it comes to them, most of them are also mentioned in one stroke, and it seems that they are reluctant to put their names into the parchment, or it may be because the part with their names has been burned, anyway, this lack makes Hugo's mood deteriorate very quickly, and the resentment against Thomas is multiplied, at this time, if he is still alive, Hugo may have run up to make up for him two knives, let him go to God!

What a goddamn guy who has been brainwashed by faith!!

Although he hated this intermittent feeling, driven by curiosity, Hugo still had to pinch his nose and look at it, and it didn't take long for a large part of the content to disappear under the burning of the flames, Hugo felt that the green tendons on his forehead were bulging, and he had an urge to whip the corpse, so he had to skip this part and continue to look down, and then finally saw what he was looking forward to in this scattered parchment!

The short-legged man sat beside a fire with a bruised and miserable expression, and his body spread with layers of black smoke and an eerie aura, and his inseparable partner Francis Bacon was not next to him.

The short-legged tears rolled out of a pair of big eyes like beads with broken threads, and it held a thick roll of parchment in its hand, trembling all over its body, and after a while the crying of the short legs slowly calmed down, and it carefully unfolded the parchment, and with a strong sense of sadness and fear, it continued to write along Francis's notes, recording its own state and experience.

Hugo carefully distinguishes the scroll with sudden changes in handwriting, and from here on, most of the content is recorded in the remorse of the short legs and the three words sorry over and over again, Hugo seems to be able to see a thin figure kneeling beside the fire with great remorse and guilt, crying in extreme pain, and the black roots on his body began to slowly extend out like bean sprouts, shaking his teeth and claws!

Short legs are cursed!!

It and Francis must have befallen something so horrible in Limoges that it is highly likely that Francis died! And judging from the remorse of Shortlegs, could it be said that the cause of their great danger and the death of their good partner was actually related to Shortlegs?

Seeing this, a lot of speculation instantly surged into Hugo's heart, such as what kind of murder for money! Abandoning his good partner at the moment of death! Its own mistake detonated the trap!

But Hugo's next record shocked Hugo, although it was incomplete but the leaked content made Hugo's calf a little numb, and he finally understood why Thomas burned the scroll on his hand at all costs!

'I'm sorry, Francis, it's all my fault, I shouldn't have hidden it... I have known for a long time who our ancestors served ... But I thought I could find a way to change the status quo of the goblin race, but I was worried that I wouldn't be able to do it alone... I didn't dare to tell you the truth ... I'm sorry!Partner!I'm sorry!I'm sorry!'

'I'm cursed!I'm cursed by the power attached to the Shroud of Turin!I deserve it!I should have known that beings like that don't like to be offended!'

'The Patriarch's departure was not punished by the Merciful Lord, so I thought that our expedition should not be too dangerous, and it was my fault! I took the Ancestor's admonition as a deaf ear!I should not covet the relics!I just wanted to find the way of the elves and see the way forward... It's my fault!'

'Mary Magdalene, forgive me, I was wrong, please don't perpetuate this curse, I am willing to bear all the faults alone!'

Mary Magdalene!!

Could it be that the master whom the short-legged patriarch served was Mary Magdalene?
