Chapter 229: Street Patrol

"So what are we going to do next?" Roland finally calmed down and asked.

"Let's investigate the humans in the city who are related to demons first, these people are the most suspicious in the last incident of the Sky Split in the Double Moon City." Dingennier thought for a moment and came to this conclusion.

Gray asked, puzzled, "Then what are we sitting here for?" Hurry up? ”

Dingenier glanced at Roland meaningfully and said, "Don't worry, start with him." ”

He?

Who?

Roland felt a little confused, and then suddenly reacted.

Roland involuntarily turned around, and a large number of soldiers had appeared on the street to maintain order on the scene. Although there was no warning, Roland was still vaguely aware that someone was coming, and that person ...... It's the king.

As expected, when the streets had gradually become more and more orderly, Roland saw the king slowly approaching the road on a tall horse. He was followed by a large group of soldiers, who were truly majestic and unstoppable.

But the king's expression was now haggard, and his face was a little pale, and it could be seen that he was now pretending to be strong in front of the people. Seeing Rand like this now, Roland suddenly felt that he was not easy, and his heart involuntarily felt a little sour, and he quickly turned around.

Roland didn't plan to meet Rand again in his life, so let Roland. Kamel, let's disappear in this Moon Country completely!

From now on, Roland will only be himself, an explorer of the Holy Court.

Behind the scenes, the cheers of the people for the king were heard louder and louder. Roland knew that the king was getting closer and closer to him. Somehow, his body trembled.

Dingennier, however, remained silent as he stared at the king's figure, and his eyes became a little obscure.

This made Roland suddenly realize a question: why did Dingurnier know that the king had a relationship with the devil?

Dingenier glanced at Roland, seemed to understand his doubts, put down the teacup in his hand, and said, "What? You're wondering how I know he's a demonic contractor? Protoss and demons are inherently incompatible, and they can sense each other's aura even when they are far away, so I can feel that the king has recently come into contact with demons. I guess even though you've always lived as a human being, you can always be aware of something on a daily basis, right? ”

Roland was slightly stunned, and then reacted: No wonder as long as there was a demon before, he would feel uncomfortable, it turned out to be because of this!

Dingenier continued to stare at the king's back, and then said slowly, "It's just ......"

"Just what?" Roland asked, but after the words came out, he was stunned again, and then shook his head with a wry smile: I have already planned to give up the past, how can it involve his affairs, and I will continue to care?

"The person who signed the contract with him should be a high demon, and it matches the smell that has been left on you before. This shows that it should be this demon who spliced and repaired your body in the first place. It is impossible for a demon to volunteer to mend the body of a god. It seems that he must have fulfilled the king's wish, and the value of this wish ...... Not low. But don't you think it's strange that the king is still alive and well, and hasn't lost his soul because of the deal with the devil? ”

Listening to Dingenier's words, Roland was also a little stunned: Yes! Wasn't that the relationship between Freckles and that medium demon in the first place? At that time, as soon as the pigtailed man died, the demon took the soul of the little freckles. How did it get to Rand that the situation was different?

Sharon glanced at Roland and explained, "The devil is self-interested, and everything is clear. Nowadays, the situation is volatile, and in order to prevent accidents, most demons do the same thing for others, and they will charge the corresponding price as a bargaining chip in exchange. This kind of contract for one thing for one thing, the seal left behind, which the demons call 'single seal', is also the most common type of contract signed by demons. But look at this king, he has signed a full seal with the devil. You must know that even ordinary demons are willing to make a full seal with humans, not to mention, this time it is still a high-level demon who has made a contract with the king. ”

"That'...... What is Full Print? Roland couldn't help but ask.

Sharon looked up, glanced at Roland meaningfully, and continued, "High demons don't live for souls, so there's no reason why you have to sign a contract with humans to get souls. On the contrary, they think it is a vulgar thing that only inferior demons would do. They usually only shoot if they find it interesting or have a special purpose. But even in such a situation, most of the High Demons would only choose to print alone. Because this type of contract is the same thing, it is convenient and concise. After the exchange of chips for the granting of wishes, the demon and the contractor are not in debt to each other, but this is not the case with the content of the full print. In the content of the contract of the whole seal, the soul of the contractor is returned to the demon after death, and the demon has to pay as much as possible to fulfill the wish made by the contractor while he is alive. But in the process, if something happens to the contractor that makes the soul not well, then the demon will not be able to obtain the soul. If you were a demon and only wanted to get souls, what kind of contract would you choose? ”

Hearing this, Roland was slightly stunned, and then suddenly understood: Yes! If it's just for the soul, it's definitely more cost-effective for the demon to print a single print, not to mention the time and labor like the full print, and it may not necessarily be rewarded. So why didn't Augustin sign a single print with Rand, and instead chose a full print that was not cost-effective for him?

Sharon continued: "As things stand, the King's wish is not simple. So I wondered, what is it about this king that attracts demons that makes them willing to make a pact with him in such a way that is obviously unfavorable to them? Or is it a demon with great ambition to use the status of the contractor as a king to set off a bloody storm in human society? It seems that the demon who made a pact with the king, we really need to investigate it carefully. ”

"Actually......" Roland hesitated, "I know who the demon who made a pact with the king is." ”

"You know? Who is it? Sharon asked.

"It's the Eastern Lord of Castlevania, Augustine."

"Augustine? It's him? After hearing that the king's contract demon was Augustine, the expression on Sharon's face visibly became a little surprised.

"You know him?"

"The most basic duty of our Holy Court is to coordinate the relations between the various races and maintain harmony and balance throughout the continent. Augustin is the lord of Castlevania, and of course I know him. It's just that he shouldn't have been in contact with humans for a long time, so how could he suddenly have a new contractor, and he is also a king? Does he want to add a kick in the already chaotic situation? If a demon lord does get involved, then things are really not good! It's just that Augustine has always been arrogant, he should be the one who disdains to do these things, right? Sharon couldn't help but feel a little puzzled, she felt that there should be something else hidden in this matter!

Roland never knew that there would be such a complicated relationship between demons, humans, and the Holy Court!

Thinking of this, Roland remembered something again, and asked a little nervously: "The demon's seal, the form is different, and the meaning is different?" ”

This was because Roland remembered that most of the demonic seals he had seen were six-pointed star-shaped. The imprint on Rand and Augustine, on the other hand, is triangular in shape. So he always felt a little strange.

Sharon replied, "Do you mean the deed seal of the triangle?" This should have nothing to do with the content of the contract, but only show that the contractor himself is a half-soul. Do you mean that the king is actually a half-soul? ”

Half-soul?

So what?

Sharon glanced at Roland silently, knowing that he was confused again, so he explained: "In general, demons are born by grabbing souls. But in fact, not all races have souls. For example, you Protoss. And every individual who has a soul, the quality of 'soul' in him, comes from his parents. To put it simply, when both parents have a soul, the child will also have a complete soul. If only one of the parents has a soul and the other does not, such as the descendants of the Protoss and the human race, the prophet and the witch, then he will naturally not be able to obtain the inheritance of the soul from the side of the Protoss, so he can only inherit the half of the soul that originated from the human race, which is the 'half-soul' that I just said. I think the king must have the blood of a prophet or a witch, so he can only be a 'half-soul' ......."

Protoss has no soul?

Hearing this, Roland was slightly stunned: That means that he actually has no soul? So what was the spell that Catherine used to bind his soul in the first place? Catherine also said at the time that if Roland broke his oath, his soul would fall into hell...... Could it be that Catherine made it all up to deceive him?
