Chapter 174: Negotiation and Collision
Hearing this voice, Ofaril's eyes widened in surprise, and even Yulian began to observe with interest at this moment. Offariel may not know, but Yulian knows that the so-called alchemists are not just about making magical items, in fact, through the entry and exit of various energies, transformation, to create new strange creatures, is also their ability. And now Charlotte is using such a strange thing.
"About this rune. ”
As she spoke, Charlotte flipped her hand and once again revealed the strange dark symbol.
"What does this have to do with your family?"
“........................”
Chelton, whose eyes were rolling, faced the question and thought for a moment, and then the dull voice sounded again.
"It's ............ Our Family...... The ...... of the Ancestors Relic. ”
"Ancestor?"
Hearing this, Judy and Yulian couldn't help but look at each other in surprise.
"Your Excellency, this is really surprising news. ”
"I thought I had killed them all at the beginning, but it seems that Xiaoqiang is really tenacious and tenacious, and he can't stop killing them. ”
"Who are your ancestors?"
"Malygos Morbius Nafia............"
"It's the man's cousin. ”
Hearing the name, Charlotte frowned slightly.
"I heard that he died of a fever many years ago, so it was just a lie?"
“.....................”
This time, Chelton didn't answer, he just stood there dumbfounded, his body shaking from side to side. Even O'Faryl was a little worried about whether there would be a strong gust of wind, so he blew this guy who was swaying from side to side directly to the ground. However, Charlotte obviously didn't need him to answer this, after all, that incident had passed too long, and the man in front of him naturally couldn't know the secret. So, the head maid thought for a moment, and then spoke again.
"Tell me everything you know. ”
"Yes, my master........."
Although I don't know what kind of worm Charlotte gave this young master, but now Chelton has swept away the arrogant appearance just now, and turned to tell everyone everything he knows like an obedient idiot.
It turned out that the ancestor of the Mobius family did have some relationship with the necromancer who imprisoned the geist in the first place, they were cousins, and it could even be said that the relationship was quite good. However, it was a time of panic, with all the countries on the continent fighting, and although the brothers were in frequent contact, they were eventually cut off from communication because of the war. In order to escape the disaster, the ancestors of the Morbis family migrated to the current kingdom of West, and slowly waited here for the war to subside. Since then, they have thrived here and become one of the most magical families in West.
Behind the rise of every great noble, there are some unknown secrets and methods, and the Mobius family is the same. Their reliance is on this Necromantic Rune, which is officially known as the Soul Control Pact, a type of legendary spell. Although this spell takes a long time and a large number of mages to supply magic power to activate, its power is extremely powerful - when it locks on the target, this spell will not be hindered in any way, nor will it be dispelled, let alone blocked and dodged, the moment it is cast, this soul rune will shoot into the target's body, firmly binding the opponent's soul, and then controlling the opponent's consciousness and body. As long as the spell is cast, the recipient will become his most loyal servant and slave, and there will be no complaints.
And this is the purpose of the Mobis family, in fact, the reason why they came here is even more terrifying - they simply hope to activate this magic when the war starts, and capture the talented knights of the Sith Empire!
This is a big gamble, and the probability of success is not small, the Morbis family has relied on this spell several times to gain the allegiance of many strong people, but has never had the existence of the knight class. This is also very simple, there are very few knights on the continent at present, and talented knights can be counted with one hand. Even the Knights of Grace, known as the "Cottage Knights", are only a few hundred in number. At present, on the mainland, in addition to the Sith Empire, the only remaining gifted knights are rumored to be in the Mage Association, and the other is in the capital of the Elven Kingdom. Neither of these parties is a target to be messed with, and the Mobius family is not bold enough to provoke the Elves and Mage Guild. Then, their goal had to fall on the Sith Empire.
And this is not difficult for the Mobius family, first of all, they are famous, the other party is an aggressor, and they are self-defense, once they succeed, then even the Sith Empire has nothing to do with themselves. Moreover, in this way, he has also made a great contribution, and the West royal family will also look at him differently, coupled with the talented knights under his control, the prestige and influence of the Mobis family in the West country can also be imagined. And, if the plan succeeds, then they can squeeze into the ranks of the top powers.
It's a no-brainer.
Of course, this plan was only known to the central members of the Mobius family, and no one else knew about it, so when the four high-ranking mages saw the twin sisters, they immediately moved to this idea, and in their opinion, if they could bring these two powerful little girls into the family, it would naturally be of great benefit - and because of this, they would activate this rune.
As for the true origin of this rune, Chelton is also vague, only saying that it is a thing handed down by the ancestors and used to protect the family.
"I see. ”
After listening to Chelton's unconcealed confession, Yulian sneered. It is true that this rune may be useful to others, but it has no effect on these geismas, because they have already been hit by the same spell, and it is several times higher than this in terms of level and effect, so this rune naturally has no reaction to them. As for where this rune came from, Yu Lian didn't care. Anyway, as long as you know that this rune is related to the Mobis family, his requirements are not high, as long as he knows who is related to this rune, then he can bring someone over to kill his whole family, it's as simple as that.
Things that are too complicated can shorten lifespan.
"Does this rune have anything to do with the royal family?"
And at this moment, Yulian suddenly asked a question that made Ofaryl's heart beat faster, and she raised her head uneasily and looked at the man in front of her. At the same time, I also felt Charlotte and Judy's gaze, although there was no malice in that gaze, but it was difficult to talk about friendliness.
“............... No. ”
Faced with this question, Chelton thought about it for a long time before answering.
"This is the secret of the family, and it must not be known to the royal family. ”
Hearing this, O'Faryl finally relieved himself and let out a long sigh of relief. In fact, she was also a little worried just now, after all, the Mobis family is responsible for the task of sending court mages to the royal family, but this is an important task, and ordinary nobles are not qualified for this. In the past, she didn't meddle in this matter, but O'Fariel also knew very well that the royal family had always put interests first. If they were really able to get their hands on this legendary magic, then it would not be surprising that they would naturally hold the Morbis family up. And now, seeing Chelton deny it, she can't help but breathe a sigh of relief. Although she is not technically a member of the royal family now, and has died once, it is unlikely that the geists will trouble her. But after all, she still has feelings for the royal family, and if Yulian just wants to toss it, then she won't stop it. But what the young lord said just now still echoed in his ears, and looking at Yuren's appearance, it didn't seem like he was joking. O'Faryl really doubted that if this matter really had something to do with the royal family, maybe Julien would kill the entire royal family as he said.
What should I do when that time comes?
But now it's okay and I passed the test smoothly.
"So, what's next...... What should we do?"
Thinking of this, O'Faryl immediately asked, after all, this matter has become a big problem now, in case it is not dealt with...... "The people of the Mobius family must not be able to stay." ”
You Lian's face remained unchanged, and he said coldly.
"We don't care about what is far away, we must not let go of these things that are close in front of us...... Judy, Charlotte, you should know how. Do you need me to send Messiah and Semiya to help?"
"Good intentions, master. ”
Charlotte's smile still didn't change, but at this moment, there was a little hideous aura flashing on her face.
"Our hatred must be resolved with our own hands. ”
"So, I'll go talk to General Celtic and have afternoon tea by the way. ”
Hearing this, Yulian didn't say anything more, but nodded at Charlotte, and then turned to leave.
Charlotte and Judy looked at Julien's back, said nothing, bent down deeply, and saluted. When they looked up, their expressions were full of determination.
"The Guards obey orders!!"
Judy "brushed" the long sword at her waist and raised it to the sky.
"Ready to go, target, the Mobius family station! Destroy them all, not a single one will be left!"
"Yes!"
With Judy's order, the rest of the geist warriors also drew their long swords and held them high in the sky, they looked at each other, and there was a faint trace of hidden evil in their eyes. Then they raised their swords and threw them at the ground.
Ice and snow, fire, thunder, all kinds of forces burst out at the same time, and then a high-pitched groan rang out from it.
Loud in the sky.
One after another, giant dragons appeared from it, and the power of the elements shone around them, and the powerful dragon power spread, and even the surrounding trees began to "rustle" and tremble.
This is Judy's true strength, and this is their capital as a Yulian Guards Assault Force.
"Let's go. ”
The high-pitched roar of dragons enveloped the land, and one after another soared into the blood-colored sky.
And all this, Yu Lian didn't care, at this moment he had completely recovered his usual expression, and walked into the fortress with an elegant and soft smile. As soon as he stepped through the gate, Julien saw the face of the Celtic general.
"Mr. Yuren, I suppose you should give me an explanation?"
“............ I'll give you an explanation, of course, General Celtic. ”
Although Celtic's face sank like water, it exuded a strange majesty. This majesty was too much for even Offariel to bear, and she hid behind Yuren in surprise, while staring at the old man in front of her in some surprise. In her memory, she had never seen Celt such a side.
"So, I'm going to have afternoon tea with General Celtic. ”
However, Yuren apparently didn't take this seriously, he just smiled, and then patted Ofariel on the shoulder. Offariel said nothing, and let Messiah and Semiya pull him back. And You Lian saw the three of them leaving, so he looked at the old general again, smiled and made a gesture of please. The old general did not say a word, and turned around and walked towards the inside of the fortress.
Led by Celtic, the two of them once again arrived in the reception room inside the fortress. The dress here is the same, but the atmosphere is very different.
"I really didn't expect your men to be so strong, Mr. Yuren. ”
Celtic sat on the sofa, staring at Yulian, who had been sipping black tea for a long time, and said coldly.
"Dragon Knight, you're really hidden. ”
"I just didn't release it, I didn't hide anything. ”
Julien shrugged his shoulders and placed two pieces of sugar in his teacup.
"So, what exactly is the purpose of your visit? Mr. Yuren?"
Celt knocked lightly on the table, and now he no longer hid his displeasure.
"You know, Lord Celtic. ”
Yuren's expression didn't change at all.
"I'm here to help you defend the Red Fortress, and you must know more about the royal family's announcements than I do. ”
“.................. Who are you? ”
"It doesn't seem like you need to ask. ”
“...........................”
The conversation reached an impasse for a moment, and General Celtic looked at Yuren, who was just staring at the teacup in front of him, admiring it intently as if there was some fine sculpture on it.
"So, what's going on between you and the Mobius family?"
General Celtic had to change the subject, and although he was very annoyed in his heart, he still divided the weight. The strength that Yu Lian showed today was completely beyond his expectations. Of course, this doesn't mean that he is not annoyed by this matter, after all, the Red Fortress is also his own territory, and it is really unreasonable to be provoked by outsiders like this. But fortunately, long before leaving, Yulian sent someone to say hello and inform Celtic that this was a problem between the nobles, so the old general calmed down. After all, he really didn't care much about things between nobles. If it was the army, then the old general would never let go.
However, just now, Celtic got information that Yulian had already fought with the Morbius family, and even caused a fatality?! This was really too unexpected for Celtic, although he also knew that Yuren had already hinted at asking for trouble with the other party when he sent someone to inform him. However, it is different when it comes to the actual death. You must know that the Mobius family is one of the few big nobles in West, although he has no interest or position to intervene in this dispute between nobles, but if the two sides make trouble in the Red Fortress, he is still responsible.
But despite this, Celtic still chose not to tear the skin with Yulen, after all, although it was a bit troublesome. But at the moment, the biggest crisis is the talented knights of the Sith Empire, compared to them, the strength of their side is really weak, and now, to be able to have so many knights, even dragon knights, join their side, then it is very helpful to defend the fortress. Although the old general is old, he is not the kind of person who is stubborn. Since the benefits that these people bring to him far outweigh the troubles, then he can only choose to accept them. It's just that the old general still has some ideas after all, you know, the series of actions of Yu Lian before were too ostentatious. Although it is understandable that young people will be a little swaggering with such strength, in the eyes of the old general, this is a very dangerous thing.
"Mr. Yuren, I want you to know that there are priorities, no matter what kind of problems you have with the Mobius family. At present, we should put national affairs first. Can't personal grievances be put aside?"
"I see what you mean, Admiral Celtic. ”
Yuren put down his teacup, smiled and crossed his hands, leaning back in his chair.
"But, I'm sorry, I can't. ”
"Can't do it?"
Hearing this, Celtic's face changed slightly.
"Why?"
This time, Yulian didn't answer immediately, he was silent for a long time, and then he spoke.
"General Celtic, do you have a goal and a belief in your heart that you must adhere to at all times and under all circumstances?"
“............ ............ mean?"
"No matter what the situation, put it first, never waver, never compromise, and never give up. ”
As he spoke, Yulian looked up.
"Have you ever had such an experience and decision?"
"I ............"
General Celtic opened his mouth, he wanted to say that he had, but suddenly realized that it seemed that this was not the case. Perseverance, never giving up, and no compromise? These words sound beautiful, but they should also be divided into time, place and occasion. Moreover, from my teenage years to the present, I have been growing, and although my goals have not changed, my means have gradually changed. As he grew older and broadened his horizons, Celtic gradually realized that he was no longer the Celtic of the past. How many ideas, dreams, and beliefs from his youth are left to this day?
"That's why you can't become a knight, General. ”
Yuren's smile didn't change in the slightest.
"Knights are paranoid, in a sense, but some of them are paranoid for good, and some of them are the opposite...... You still haven't been able to understand the knight's dedication to his goals and beliefs. ”
"Perhaps........."
Celt let out a long sigh, he seemed to understand what the other man was trying to say, but he couldn't say anything.
"So, what do you want to do next?"
"I want to ..............."
Yulian spread his hands.
You'll soon find out. ”
