[Before concluding the Demon Envoy, I don't make you enter the consciousness space without defense, and the complete separation of the spirit from the ** will put you in a dangerous situation. Don't underestimate the gods in the sky, no corner of the material world can escape their eyes, hidden deep behind history, the rise and fall of dynasties, the strength and weakness of species have the shadow of gods. Lorelei's figure faded away, and Link detached from the space of consciousness.
"Hey, hillbilly, it's time, you have to pay if you want to stay on. "Early in the morning, the mercenaries came knocking on the door.
In order to be more in line with the image of the stingy, Link also bargained with the mercenaries, but the other party refused to let him go.
"Phew, poor ghost. The mercenary spat on the ground. It happened that the tenant of the next room opened the door and came out, and the mercenary immediately changed into a flattering expression.
"Who's that?" the young man who lived in the wooden house next door to Link was richly dressed, and he knew at a glance that he was either rich or expensive.
"The guy who lives in the room next door to you seems to be a ranger. ā
"Natives?"
"Ha~ how is it possible. Only outsiders rent here. Worried that his words would collide with the nobles of the unknown territory, the mercenary pointed to the circular city that stood not far away, "The inner city is protected by the mage's enchantment, and only nobles and licensed craftsmen are allowed to enter. ā
The young man watched Link leave his back until he disappeared into the crowd before retracting his gaze and returning to the most expensive, furnished inn room.
Link wandered around the already busy market, making sure that no one was following him. The intelligence spies who had been squatting outside his cabin all night last night were gone, probably confirming that they were just ordinary people and had nothing to do with the children of nature, and left on their own.
Just as he was thinking about going around the outer forest and looking for a suitable place to gase, suddenly something on a stall caught his attention.
It was a pitch-black animal sculpture, with a demeanor and shape the size of a real wolf, lifelike from a distance.
The stall owner is a grocer, and the sculpture stands out in a pile of household items. Link walked over and saw someone stop in front of the stall, and the merchant immediately looked up and asked what he wanted to buy.
Link pointed to the sculpture made of unknown material, and when he saw that his interest was sculpture, the merchant looked embarrassed.
"This doesn't seem to be your average sculpture. ā
Noticing Link's outfit, the merchant's fat cheeks twitched slightly.
"You don't mind telling me how this thing came from, do you?" Link didn't say he wanted to buy it, but just asked about the origin of the statue.
Wiping the beads of sweat from his forehead, the merchant seemed to have made up his mind, and he leaned into Link's ear, "Tell you the truth, this is a cursed sculpture. ā
"Cursed?"
"Yes, it is said that it was originally alive, but it was changed into its current form by some kind of magic. Some collectors with strange tastes like to have this kind of thing of unknown origin circulated in the hands of many collectors, and I got it by some chance. Seeing that Link was very interested, the merchant said that if Link was willing to ask for it, he would like to stick a pickled pork leg upside down.
"There's such a good thing......" Link squinted at the uneasy businessman.
"IāI don't really like this thing. Originally, I had heard that this thing could intimidate the beasts of the wilderness, so I took it, but when I went to bed at night, I always felt that it was staring at me. I wanted to return it, but the other party said that he would not accept anything, even if he gave it away, he couldn't give it away, this thing is notoriously weird in the circle. The merchant wiped the sweat from his head and continued to sell to Link, adding a small bag of salt in order to give away what he considered evil.
In a medieval-like world like Edgar, the importance of salt is definitely number one among the daily necessities of ordinary people.
"Okay. Link pretended to be embarrassed to accept, holding the pickled pork leg and salt bag in one hand, and leaving with the slightly heavy wolf sculpture in the other.
The merchant let out a long sigh, glad that he had finally given away the strange thing that had made him uncomfortable for the last few months.
Link was also happy about the unexpected joy. He was short of demons, so I sent him one.
According to the original plan, he walked around the forest, found a place where no one was, put all the things in his hand into the dimensional bag, and returned to the inner city defended by the enchantment after Link's gasification.
Yoda was writing at his desk when he suddenly felt something strange, and when he looked up, he saw the Child of Nature in the appearance of the Ranger Melville appearing in the hall. He had gone from initial surprise to accustomation to the elusiveness of this man.
"Yo~ Are you there, didn't you go out to set up a stall?" Link didn't expect Yoda to be there, seeing that the gate of the union was closed, he thought that the head of the branch had gone to the market.
"The market is handed over to that kid Runny, I can't let him see you. Yoda was frustrated by Link's casual behavior of coming and going as if he were his own home.
Oh, the clerk...... For inconsequential characters, Link never bothered to memorize them. Say hello to Yoda and go to the storeroom.
Taking out the statue he found in the market from the dimensional bag, Link called out to Lorelei in his consciousness, can he tell what spell this wolf has fallen into?
[You're really lucky, you said you want to find a demon, and it will be automatically sent to your door.] Lorelei usually only takes the initiative to talk to Link when necessary, as a wisp of remnant soul, she can't see or hear directly, and all she knows comes from Link's consciousness sharing.
I really didn't expect to see the deity here......
Link stroked the wolf eagle's head, whether it was a slightly mutilated ear or a snow-white foot, it was exactly the same as a memory.
[What, do you know it?]
I know it, but it doesn't know me. Jafar the Wolf, the Druid of the Pillars of Earth, was my natural ally and follower in the illusion. In the market, Link immediately recognized the wolf that had been turned into a sculpture by magic, and its appearance was so recognizable.
[Is it still alive?] Link's memories tell him that he senses the faint but unextinguished life force hidden in the statue......
[It's really alive, but I don't know what kind of spell it is, will it be dangerous to dismantle?] Link is most afraid of the death of the wolf after the spell is lifted, so the gain will outweigh the loss.
Lorelei gives Link a method, the Phenomenology, that can manifest the spells cast.
Relying on the knowledge of the former goddess of magic, a strange rune quickly appeared on the wolf's body.
[This is the language of the devil, the one who curses the devil, or the cao law who understands the curse of the devil.] Lorelei gave an answer that surprised Link, [I want to ...... This could be a trap. ć
[Is there a danger of backlash or danger to itself?]
[No, it's just an ordinary curse, but the caster can sense the lifting of the spell.] In other words, it's made for you. Don't forget, all parties are watching you closely. ć
Link was silent, he was in dire need of a demon now, druids and elemental creatures were the best choice, he didn't like Lorelei's summoning abyss monsters, demons at all. In Link's view, loyalty is secondary, the key is to bring a monster from the abyss is very eye-catching, the secret investigation can't be carried out at all, and if he encounters a guy who hates the opposing camp like the Dawn believer, it will definitely be a disaster, and he doesn't want to expose the fake identity that he has spent a lot of energy on.
Link thought for a moment and made a hypothesis, "Perhaps, it's aimed at me. But not necessarily now. ć
According to the merchant, the statue was some years old, but he only made an official appearance two months ago.
[What you say may be right, but who can guarantee that the merchant's words must be true?] Lorelei insisted that Link should not unlock the curse on the statue so as not to reveal his identity.
There's only one way to prove it now, and Link wants to take this opportunity to give it a long shot...... No, it should be said that 'Divine Knowledge', which has not been used since the crossing, this pure prophetic divine art can see everything that has been born with the help of the power of God.
As soon as Link heard that he was going to use 'Divine Knowledge', Lorelei stopped doing so. Knowledge, enlightenment, appearance, and solidity are the four most famous divine techniques of the pillar, and she also wants to take a look.
With the experience in the illusion, it didn't take much time to explore, Link used the core magic of the Wind Pillar Gasos - Divine Knowledge. In front of him was an endless desert, and under the blazing sun, the wolf Jafar was covered in blood, and its enemy was a female demon covered in flames.
"If I do it again, you're going to die. The demon stroked his cheek and admonished with a look of pity, "Say it anyway." ā
Jafar was silent, and even if he hadn't been poisoned, he wouldn't have survived long with his bleeding.
In the form of a spirit body, Link silently watched this scene that had been born. He's just a bystander and can't change anything.
[This is divine knowledge, recreating the past in a personal way?Interesting, only Zhu has such ability......] Lorelei let out a sigh, she also appeared in the form of a spiritual body.
"The pillars have been corroded, and it won't be long before the druids will be as wild as the beasts of the wilderness. The female demon continued to persuade, "We don't intend to kill the Child of Nature, on the contrary, the Abyss Demon Realm will protect him, and evil chaos does not mean that we like death." ā
Jafar's attitude remained unchanged, and displeasure flashed across the female demon's face, "I don't know what to do. She reached out and a red light struck the wolf, which turned into a stiff sculpture in a wail of pain.
"Cobbs. ā
A lower-grade demon appeared in response, and the female demon commanded her subordinates.
"Go, send this to Befast, try that newborn Archduke of Befast. ā
"What's the use of a child under a year old, who can't even walk steadily?" the demon named Cobbs didn't understand the meaning of the order.
"Fool! Lifeweavers can retain the memories of their past lives, and even if they don't have the ability to unlock the curse, as a child of nature, they will definitely recognize the difference of this statue, so you can keep an eye on it and take a closer look. Report any situation as soon as possible. ā
Perception ends with the demon Kobbs leaving with a wolf statue.
Link was right, the curse was indeed not aimed at him now, but to test whether Gonzalez was a child of nature. The Archduke of Befast was the chosen one of the god of war, and of course the result was a failure, so the useless wolf was discarded...... (To be continued.) )
