Chapter 018: Two Souls
Alan scratched his nose and his gaze drifted a little, and he quickly sorted out everything about the dam incident in his mind, and it seemed to be exactly what White had said. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
For Assyria, there is really no benefit in doing this, and if it were him, he should have joined forces and attacked Nippur, instead of bribing mercenaries and destroying the dam to flood the city of Nippur.
"Hey, guys, don't you believe what I said?" White spread his hands, and his high-pitched voice showed some pity, "I've sworn to the god Namu!"
"Hyde lied to you and borrowed troops from you as an emissary of the Nipur Alliance, right?" Alan asked after thinking.
"Oh!" said White, with a loud sigh, and paced back and forth at the table, muttering something as if he had discovered a new continent. "Guess what?" he asked, finally stopping.
"To be precise, it's extrapolated. Alan looked at him, "If you're not lying." ”
"There are nearly 700 statues of Namu in Assyria, and believers dare not lie in front of God!" White smiled, revealing a golden tooth reflecting the light, which stood out in the dimly lit side hall.
Suddenly there was a sound of the door opening behind him. An old wizard in a white robe and a square hat passed by the group and walked briskly to White's side. "My lord, I've been looking for you for a long time, so you're here. He bowed and took out a vial of brown potion from the sleeve of his spacious robe, "It's time to take the medicine, especially in front of important dignitaries." ”
"Oh, thanks, old man. White took the potion, tilted his head and swallowed it.
The protector frowned, his gaze resting on White's wriggling Adam's apple. "How does it feel?"
"Good, I'm back. White handed the bottle to the Dharma Protector beside him and opened his closed eyes.
"Welcome back, honor the ruling king. The Dharma Protector straightened up, stood behind White, and lazily stroked his short goatee, barely blinking in his eyes, as if he had accomplished a great thing.
"I'm sorry, three knights, I just laughed. White slowly stood up from the table, his tone swept away the high-pitched and excited just now, and his gaze became sharp and cunning along with his tone.
"I don't understand what's going on, Master White. Alan leaned back in his chair and folded his hands. The moment his gaze met White's, he felt that the man behind the table seemed to be a different person, and the sharpness of his pale blue eyes seemed to match the ivory and gold leaf-decorated cloak on his shoulders rather than the clown before, which looked out of place with the brocade dress.
"It's really hard to understand. White lowered his eyes, his face a little heavy, "To put it simply, there is another person living in my body. After he finished speaking, he raised his head and glanced at the three people in front of the table with his fierce eagle eyes.
The side hall was quiet again.
Seeing that the three of them were silent for a long time, White smiled gloomily. "That's why the three of them have survived until now," he suddenly stopped laughing and opened his mouth, "I've kept this secret alone for three years, of course, the Hess Protector knows all this, and he's been using potions to help me suppress another soul." ”
"Can I refuse to listen any further?" said Allen coldly.
"No!" White replied quickly, then pointing a finger at Allen, "you've heard the secret, and no third person in Assyria knows about it, and people are certainly more willing to discuss it than the inside story of the queen's ouster." He rolled his eyes, and his voice became sharper, "Listen, three knights, your time of death is long overdue, I have kept you alive until now, so you have to do one thing for me, and you can't let the third, fourth, or fifth ..... The sixth person knows. ”
Alan raised an eyebrow. "Must?" he asked, grimacing.
"Unless, you want to die by the knife right now, along with your two friends, and the five thousand Confederates outside the city!" White assured him by tapping the table.
"I have a question, Master White. Sersi interjected coldly.
"You only have one chance to ask questions, Chief Sercy. White leaned back in his chair, and the pale blue eagle eyes became more cunning.
"Your other soul, is that true?" Sersi thought for a moment, then added, "I mean, Assyria really wasn't involved in the incident at the Unun Dam?"
"As far as I know, that alien is not in the habit of lying. White frowned, reached out and tapped his brain, "We share the same brain." ”
"Don't you know everything?" asked Sersi, "can you tell me who started this? Wilson, Hyde, Maga, or someone else?"
"Head Sersi, I've just said that you only get one chance to ask questions. White raised his voice impatiently, "Also, that's him, not me, I'm human, I don't have the ability to foresee everything!"
"Alien?" Alan said in a rough voice, "the other soul in your body, an alien?"
"Doesn't that sound fucked?" White picked up the flask on the table and poured a glass of wine, his face a little displeased.
"Since this matter bothers you so much, why don't you send someone to fix it sooner?" Mike, who was sitting on the sidelines, opened his mouth.
"Woo....." White took a sip of wine and replied hastily, as if there was something unspeakable.
"I guess this has something to do with the Queen, right?" said Allen, looking at the somewhat surprised White, and added, "Because you don't want this secret to be exposed, you can only use the reason for the arrest of the Queen to search for the person who troubles you." He stepped away from the back of his chair, straightened up, and without waiting for White to open his mouth, added, "From your surprised expression, it is not difficult to see that that person must be someone next to the queen, if not the queen." ”
This sentence drew a chuckle from behind the table. "Lord White. The silent old protector suddenly opened his mouth, "It looks like you've found the right person this time, hehe....."
White put away the look of surprise on his face, and he put the wine glass back on the table, a flash of pleasure flashing between his eyebrows.
"Three years ago, after I ousted the Vicious Queen, a witch approached me and promised me the ability to foresee everything, on the condition that I would support my nephew to inherit the throne. He lowered the corners of his eyes and smiled briefly, "The human heart is always greedy, I promised her, but she used evil witchcraft to seal an alien soul in my body, and since then, I have become a two-faced person who lives on medicine." ”
"She's the Queen's man?" Alan interjected.
"Yes, I've been searching for them. White's tone changed, and he suddenly stopped soft, "Three days ago, the Tielin Army found them in the Dragon's Blood Forest, a team of five hundred people, and less than ten people came back!"
"Do they know witchcraft?" Alan asked.
"I don't know, maybe. White stood up, "I want to ask you to help me find the witch and bring it back here alive." ”
"Alive?" said Allen's tone, a little embarrassed.
"Yes, she must live!" White said coldly, "The Protector of Hess will sacrifice her blood and heart to that filthy soul!"
