Chapter 261: The Letter That Didn't Be Sent
"I don't believe Su Ye is so stupid." Luo Long Road.
"He's not stupid, but his willingness to take the risk of participating in this gladiatorial tournament means that he can sacrifice a little more for you, and if a poor butler takes the initiative to admit his mistake and compensate him handsomely, he will be willing to sacrifice a little more. What's more, he is a civilian, and civilians will always be blinded by immediate interests and fears. Civilians, never dare to stand up to the legendary family. Leobo said.
"His death will provoke the wrath of Palos!" Luo Long Road.
"She's a princess of the demigod family, but she's just a little girl. It is impossible for His Majesty Lutos to punish so many families for the sake of his daughter's momentary anger. Leobo said.
Luo Long sighed and said, "Yes, you are not even afraid of Master Plato, let alone an underage princess. But, is it worth it? ”
"I only know that whether it is Plato's Academy or the Pandeon family, they will definitely think that it is not worth it to be enemies of so many nobles for the sake of Su Ye and Lake, two commoners." Leobo Road.
"But the cost of killing him is more than you think." Rollon stared at Leobo.
He couldn't tell that Su Ye was a favorite of Athena, the goddess of wisdom.
Leob slowly handed out a metal disc two inches in diameter and half an inch thick.
"Place it on your waist, and if you are on the verge of serious injury, press the head of the giant eagle and the two hounds will spit out spikes and infuse powerful potions that will give you unparalleled power. After that, of course, you'll have to recuperate for a month. ”
With a trembling hand, Luo Long took the metal disc.
With the help of the magic light, he took a serious look at both sides of the disc.
One side is carved with a giant eagle and the other is carved with two hounds.
The giant eagle and the hound are both animals that the god of war Ares likes.
This is an item exclusive to the Temple of the God of War.
"No wonder you can't choose, no wonder you ......" Luo Long slowly put the disc into his waist and blocked it with his belt.
"You still have a choice." Leob stared at Rollon silently.
In the depths of his gaze, something was hidden.
"Choose...... Rawon laughed to himself, "no wonder I've always found Child's attitude weird, and although he always makes gestures aimed at me, I don't feel any murderous intent." That Egyptian mage was trying to kill Su Ye from the beginning, but unexpectedly, Su Ye survived. In the end, I had to make a shot. ”
"After it is over, the gladiatorial arena will cremate his body, and someone will erase all traces. We will also take you into the Temple of the God of War for a small sacrifice in exchange for the protection of the God of War. As long as you recuperate in the temple for a month, you will still be Lorron. Leobo's tone was very steady, but there seemed to be something more in the depths of his eyes.
"Aren't you afraid of angering the gods by doing this?"
"If the bell of calamity does not ring, the gods do not know."
Luo Long instinctively looked to the north at the Great Bell Tower, where the famous Calamity Bell hangs.
Luo Long lowered his head and looked at his hands, the wounds that had been scrubbed yesterday had just healed.
Between his fingers, blood gushed out.
He blinked vigorously and secretly breathed a sigh of relief, his hand was still fine, it was just an illusion just now.
"Why are you doing this to me? I can be a champion cleanly, study at Plato's Academy, hug my friends cleanly, hold a weapon cleanly, why are you forcing me? Luo Long muttered to himself.
"You've always been clean, I've never pushed you. The spear that pierced Ryker is in your hand, and the spear that pierced Su Ye is also in your hand. Leob said slowly.
"The spear that pierced your chest is also in my hand." Luo Long raised his head, his eyes flashing with hatred.
"I'm expecting you to do that, but, do you dare?" Leob held his head high and looked down at Rollon.
Luo Long only felt that Leobo stood in front of him like a huge demon king, blocking the earth, blocking the sky, blocking all light and warmth.
Scenes from the past flashed through my mind, and the fear in my heart was like a tsunami.
"Your name is Luo Long, and you are a good boy of Luo Long's family." Leob reached out and patted Rollon on the shoulder, and turned to leave.
Obviously, his whole body was cold, but for some reason, Luo Long felt that his grandfather's hands were very warm.
Perhaps, it was because Grandpa touched himself for the first time.
Mother said that grandpa never hugged herself.
The moment Leob stepped out of the door, Rollon suddenly whispered.
"Can you let me go?"
Leob's body trembled and he strode forward.
Luo Long stared blankly, curled up on his knees, hugged his knees, slowly lowered his head, and buried his face deep into his knees.
Su Ye's room.
The strong fishy stench seemed to roll around every corner, even if the toilet was covered by the quilt.
Su Ye sat quietly on the bed, flipping through the letters that he hadn't read.
These letters were all sent before the appearance of the Forbidden Demon Realm.
Most of them were congratulations from classmates.
Among them was a letter from Nedern.
In the pitch-black room, the white light of the magic pages shone on Su Ye's face, and his face became even paler.
Su Ye quietly looked at Nedern's long letter.
"I don't want to tell you, but, I have to say."
"Before Master Plato could finish recovering from his wounds, he appeared early and extracted residual memories from Ryker's eyes. Through the information provided by you and your classmates, we verified and finally came to a complete process and conclusion. ”
"Years ago, Lorlon's grandfather sent his butler Turner to buy leather goods, which were in excellent condition and more expensive. Turner wanted the other side to be cheaper, but the other party never let go. So, Turner told Rollen's grandfather about the matter, perhaps, Turner added fuel and vinegar to what he said at that time, Roller's grandfather was a little annoyed, so he asked Turner to solve it himself, but he had to buy the goods at a low price. ”
So Turner first gave a deposit, bought the goods, and then exchanged the goods for the bad ones, forcibly refunded them, and slandered the leather merchants. As you can guess, the fur merchant is Lake's parents. Lake's parents continue to come to the door to seek justice, but Lake's mother is beaten to death by Turner, and later his father is also beaten to death by Turner. The Loron family paid several times the total value of the leather goods to settle the matter. ”
"Lake was young at the time, and he doesn't remember anything about it, except for the family silver jewelry that Turner dropped when he beat his father. Lake buried this matter in his heart and never acted rashly. It wasn't until he was promoted to an apprentice in magic that he searched for the source of the silver jewelry, and kept going to an intelligence dealer on the west side of Socrates Avenue to buy relevant news. ”
"All of this we know from the intelligence traffickers. The informants told us that they had known that the silver ornament belonged to the Loron family, but they had been hanging Lake, not daring to offend the legendary family, and wanting to make more money from Lake. It wasn't until the Black Iron Trial that Lake found out that Loron had the same silver ornament in the Giant's Hill, so he found the intelligence dealer. The intelligence dealer had to admit that the silver jewelry was indeed a token of the Luo Long family. ”
While chatting with Lake, the intelligence dealer learns that Lake had heard from his classmates early on about Rollon's family asking for help from a combat skills teacher. The intelligence dealer thought that Lake would take revenge, but who knows, Lake said that he had changed and was ready to focus on cultivating magic, not to worry about anything else, and to become a master of the Sanctuary first. ”
"Later, when the intelligence dealer was drinking with his friends, he accidentally said this, and the people of the Luo Long family knew about it, and the Luo Long family came to interrogate him and gave him 50 golden eagles as a hush money."
"We suspect that the Luo Long family knows about Lake and thinks that Lake will be looking for trouble, so instead of waiting for him to be promoted to the master of the Holy Domain, it is better to strike first."
"We don't know exactly what happened that day, but from Lake's remaining memories, Lake and Loron had a battle, and at the last moment, Ryker suddenly relented and interrupted the spell, and Lorlon's war spear pierced Ryker's throat without hesitation. I saw the memories of Ryker extracted by Master Plato, and it was blood-red. I could even hear Lake's last painful voice. ”
"The reason why I tell you this is because not far from the scene of the crime, there is a magic book dropped by Lake."
"On the unclosed page of the magic book, there is an unfinished magic letter, and the recipient is you. He should have been writing to you as he went, and then when he saw Rollon, he lost his mind and rushed over. ”
In the unsent letter, it was written: I'm sorry, I may not see Zachary. Please redefine the world......"
Su Ye closed the magic book and bowed his head deeply.
Shoulders trembled slightly.
In the dark night, Su Ye sat quietly.
Until the faint sound of footsteps breaks the silence.
Su Ye raised his head and looked at the people outside the fence.
He was dressed in a neat brown robe, with a modest smile on his face, and his hair was gray but neatly groomed, as if even the wrinkles at the corners of his eyes had been carefully repaired.
Su Ye recalled it carefully and confirmed that he had not seen this person.
Su Ye looked at the pair of gentle brown eyes and said coldly, "Please do me a favor and throw the box containing the demonic poison a little farther away." ”
"Young Master Su Ye, hello." The old man bowed his head slightly and greeted him with a salute.
"We haven't seen that before." Su Ye Dao.
"I'm the steward of the Loron family, Turner." The smile on Old Turner's face was soft.
Su Ye's pupils dilated suddenly, and even if he tried his best to hide it, his expression changed significantly.
"I know you must be angry right now, you must be resentful of us. But allow me, on behalf of the Loron family, to express my sincerest apologies to you, everything is our fault and we will not quibble. ”
Old Turner bent down and bowed.
Su Ye regained his composure, looked at Old Turner quietly, and didn't say a word.
"But I also hope you understand that we are doing this for a reason."
"Yes, Young Master Luo Long trusts you, and I also think that you will admit defeat in the end, and Master also thinks that you will do what you say. But, as the steward of the Loron family, I shouldn't think so. We can't pin everything on an outsider, we can't bet the glory of an entire family on a child. It's not so much that we don't believe you, but that we don't trust anyone, including Young Master Luo Long. ”
"If there is an accident in the end, even if you are not careful, or someone secretly makes you defeat Master Luolong, then the Luolong family will become the laughing stock of all Athens, and even the joke of all Greece. How fatal this is to the Loron family, you should understand. ”
