Chapter 114: Soul Allegiance
Strange things, since crossing over, Lynch has been through a hundred battles and has seen a lot. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
For example, the kind of particularly unscientific summoning can be called out with cards.
But something as puzzling as today still puzzled him.
How did Manna win?
Even if it was cheating, Lynch couldn't figure out how she cheated.
Suppressing all kinds of thoughts for the time being, now Lynch is more concerned about why the voice that suddenly came out is so familiar?
Is it Elliott?
Is there a backup?
At first, when he heard the voice, Lynch thought it was the Holy Demon King who had reinforcements.
But the voice felt familiar, and when I thought about it, wasn't this the voice of my dear friend Elliott?
I see, there is a great god covering, no wonder we won, the goddess Nabis bless, this time when I go back, I will definitely donate more gold coins and talk about my heart.
Lynch breathed a sigh of relief, and in the face of such a miracle, he immediately became a believer in the goddess Nabis, a believer in donating money.
"Are you here to grab the loot?" said Manna in a very unhappy tone.
In her opinion, the Holy Demon King was already a boiled duck, how could she let Elliott cut off his beard.
Mana's attitude caused Lynch to overturn his judgment.
Could it be that the reason for the victory has nothing to do with Elliott, so how did Manna win?
"It's better to come early than to come at the right time. I happened to be researching how to find him in reverse direction according to the magical city of Endymion, and this happened to happen. Elliott smiled, and he was always tolerant of Mana's unkind questions.
As an elder in the field of magic, he has always been very tolerant of his juniors.
"He's important to our research, and it's a shame that such a magician died. Elliott didn't talk to Mana, but to Lynch.
Grasping the key is a necessary skill for any truly smart person, and Elliott brushed aside Manna and consulted directly with Lynch, which hit the heart of the matter.
Lynch has enough influence over Mana, and Elliott has a better relationship with Lynch.
"But he's the enemy. Lynch offered thoughtfully.
The Holy Demon King was plunged into a sinking darkness, stripped of all consciousness.
There's no better chance to eliminate him.
But Lynch didn't say dead, and used a word to indicate that it was negotiable.
Elliott is a person who knows what he means by listening to the strings, how could he not know what Lynch meant?
What can I gain from this, even for me to unleash a dangerous enemy?
"So far, we have not made a substantial breakthrough in the study of the magic city of Endymion, and we cannot directly mobilize the power of the magic city like him. ”
Elliot had come to Toposo, of course, not for a vacation, but to study the magical castle that was said to have been left behind by the gods.
Research doesn't progress fast, and for a magician, time is of the essence.
If you can get enough information from the Divine Demon King, then you will definitely be able to speed up the research considerably.
But what is this about Lynch?
Lynch's expression told Elliott what he thought.
"If we can make faster progress, I think His Majesty the Emperor will be very happy about it. "Elliott hinted to Lynch that we would be rewarded more.
One step closer depending on the benefits unearthed.
Due to Elliott's intelligence error, he didn't know that the magic city of Endymion was not a so-called god's legacy at all, and Lynch didn't have much confidence in how much he could get from its research.
Such a small gain cannot compensate for the loss caused by letting the enemy go.
Lynch prefers to send the Holy Magisters to the graveyard here.
"Second, I can guarantee that he will never be our enemy again. Elliott certainly understood that Lynch was a shrewd man, and if he couldn't offer something more beneficial than the death of the Holy Demon King, Lynch would certainly not agree.
Although Elliott can rely on his own strength to win hard, but everything depends on grabbing, you will not have any credit in the future, the master does not mean that the world is invincible, it does not mean that you can not talk about any order.
And the key to Elliot's desire to convince Lynch is that the Holy Demon King must no longer be an enemy of Lynch, and if this foundation is not solved, it will be difficult to convince no matter how many benefits there are.
"How can you guarantee that?" Lynch finally got a little interested, and gently waved his hand to signal Manna not to speak yet.
"My request to save him is to make him loyal to His Majesty the Holy and Inviolable Emperor of the Flying Dragon Empire, and once he is loyal to His Majesty the Emperor, he must swear by his life, forget this festival, and become His Majesty's royal magician from now on. Elliott explained, believing that this would resolve the dispute between the two.
Are you kidding me?
Lynch didn't expect Elliott to come up with such a bullshit suggestion, and he was kicked in the head by a donkey and still thought he was an idiot.
No, no, Elliott didn't take himself for an idiot.
He used the laws of this world.
Allegiance is above all else, and the Lord is above all else.
"I'm sorry, my friend, I can't agree to such a suggestion, it's for me to put my own life above his morals. ”
"There are no guarantees about this. Lynch said firmly.
"Yes, I confess, there are too many examples of obedience to the Lord and renunciation of hatred. ”
"But don't forget, my friend, that there is no shortage of vile villains and people of inferior moral character. ”
"And I never believed in the character of the enemy. ”
When Lynch finished speaking, crisp applause rang out on the side, and Manna held the magic wand in one hand and clapped her little hand with the other to cheer on Lynch.
At the same time, he grimaced at Elliott.
This kind of childlike nature sometimes makes people laugh and cry.
"Mr. Lynch is right. Viscount Lanto said in solidarity on the side, now that the Holy Demon King has lost, then of course Viscount Lanto can't be on his side.
Although at first he was also a guest of Viscount Lanto.
But the aristocracy was often on the side of the victors.
As for Elliott, a legendary magician, Viscount Lanto also has a certain understanding, and is not an unreasonable magician.
"Lynch, I can understand your concern. Elliott nodded, even though allegiance is the strictest moral requirement in this world, there is no shortage of people who refresh the lower limit.
If Elliot can't 100% guarantee the harmlessness of the Holy Magi, then why would Lynch agree to such a suggestion that would likely cause him damage?
"But there is a hierarchy of allegiance. ”
"If he wants to be redeemed, he must dedicate his soul to His Majesty the Holy and Inviolable Emperor of the Wyvern Empire. Elliott said confidently.
"Soul allegiance?" Viscount Ranto took a breath of cold air.
Death is not the highest punishment in this world, the soul is.
Once soul allegiance has been performed, then the possibility of mutiny is nil.
At least for now, no one who has performed soul allegiance dares to betray the lord.
If this allegiance is so useful, why is it still rarely used by nobles?
First, the cost of this allegiance is too high, and it is directly proportional to the strength of the loyalist, and the stronger the strength, the greater the cost.
Second, after this allegiance, the growth of strength will be frighteningly slow, or even stagnant.
Thus the Church has explained that this allegiance is not blessed by the goddess Nabis.
This type of allegiance is often reused against the betrayer.
For worthy betrayers, the nobles will allow them to perform soul allegiance, ensuring that their valuable lives will not be wasted.
Lynch was quite satisfied with this, if this was the case, plus other benefits, it was not impossible to let go of the Holy Demon King.
Just will Manna agree?
The two of them have a grudge.
Lynch turned to look at Mana.
"Ha, if the thief falls to this fate, I will die of laughter, I wonder if the thief will survive without a backbone, or accept the punishment now?" Manna does not have to be the life of the Holy Demon King, if he falls into becoming a puppet led by others, let him live the rest of his life like this, maybe it will be the greatest torture.
