Chapter 40: The Contract of Blood
Tonight, the atmosphere in the living room of the mansion was very awkward, and in the spacious and abnormal living room, only the magic flame kept flickering, reflecting the figures of several people in the hall on the ground, shaking silently. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
At Laksha's orders, Charlie, who was pale, brought Alan a knight's undershirt made of high-quality ice cotton, plus a brand new knight's full body armor. The protective performance of this armor is not even one-fifth of the armor issued by the knight's branch, but it is better than the gorgeous shape, the decoration is noble, the armor is wrapped with magic silver wire, each piece of armor is crystal clear, translucent, the surface is carved with complex patterns, and there are even hollow patterns in some places, if it is not for the restriction of style, it can be comparable to the paladin armor, however, this armor is only good-looking, if you go to the battlefield, such equipment will only make the opponent despise, and will kill yourself.
Alan looked at this suit with a complicated expression, and the handprint left on Laxa's right cheek was still faintly recognizable, just like the touch from his fingers just now, and it didn't go away for a long time.
Next to this armor, there is also a pile of golden gold coins. In fact, not only Allen, but at this time, the other three people were all piled up with high-grade equipment, as well as gold coins that were enough to dazzle their eyes.
After a moment of silence, Laxa simply got straight to the point. In Laksha's words, she decided to fully support Alan and Crete in pretending to be oracles and spreading oracles in order to expand the influence of the Klein Chamber of Commerce. And what Alan and the others have to do is to fully cooperate with Laksa and complete the plan for the rapid expansion of the Klein Chamber of Commerce, and another effect of this plan is to find the real fifth main god faster.
"So, what we have to do now is try to get stronger, right?" Dolan sighed with some excitement as he grabbed a handful of gold coins with a twinkle in his eyes.
Alan picked up a glove on his arm, moved his wrist, adjusted the position of the gauntlet, and then looked at his palm in a daze, without saying a word.
"Yes, you still need to be harder to strike iron, and your strength is still too weak. The best plan is that one of you can wake up," Laxa, who had already changed into a fiery red evening dress, sat on the sofa with a cold and arrogant face, lit a cigarette and said. When she saw Allen's hand hanging in the air, she suddenly remembered the scene that had just happened, and her originally white neck suddenly flushed slightly, however, thinking of Allen, who seemed to be a different person, and thinking of the incomparably majestic voice, goosebumps suddenly rose on her tender skin.
"Awakening? That's what I have to do, Laxia, I'd like to ask, is there anything I can do to wake up quickly?" Alan said as he took off his gauntlet and looked at Laxa earnestly.
"Allen, I won't hide it from you, the awakening of knights is extremely difficult, once the awakening fails, you will become the same as Ballon, you can only be a high-level knight for the rest of your life, and you will never have a chance with the guardian, if you choose another profession now, I think with my strength, it should not be difficult for you to awaken. For example, berserkers and swordsmen are much easier than knights."
"No, Laksha, I just want to awaken in half a year, and as a knight, this is my agreement with Christine. I can endure how hard it is. As Alan spoke, he took out the blue six-pointed star badge, glanced at it, and then clenched it tightly in the palm of his hand, and looked at Laxa with a resolute look in his eyes and said.
"Will we also be able to awaken?" Crete asked with a light cough as he looked at Dolan with a greedy face and Minos with a confused face.
"Based on my relationship with Dean Jambert, I'm going to get a few training sets for you with the Divine Armor and the Divine Martial Arts," Laxa hesitated for a moment before continuing
Crete frowned and pondered the credibility of Laksha's words, because the City of Oracles clearly stated that no one could take the training of God Armor and God Martial Arts out of the Guardian Academy, and violators would be severely punished. This punishment is definitely not something that humans can bear.
But with the financial resources of the Klein Chamber of Commerce, it may be possible.
Seeing that a few people were hesitant, Laxa was a little uncertain in her heart, and reminded again, "The equipment matter can always be solved, but the difficulty lies in how far you can go, I am a businessman, if I find that you don't have the value of my investment, then I think you will also know the consequences." So, let me make sure again, are you all mentally prepared, and if so, sign an agreement with me." Laxa said, then beckoned, Charlie expressionlessly put a piece of parchment in front of each of the four people, as well as four very complex silver makeup knives, everyone looked at it, a little puzzled, Charlie explained to everyone in a cold voice, after listening, the four of them were surprised, this is a kind of contract signed with blood that was popular in the mainland a long time ago, the silver makeup knife and the contract book are attached to a powerful death curse magic, if someone violates it, it will trigger the curse, but as long as the agreement is reached, the curse will dissipate by itself。
"I don't need to ask, awakening is my only goal right now. Alan frowned, picked up the silver knife and slashed it in the palm of his hand, and the red blood suddenly dripped on the contract, and the contract was like a sponge absorbing water, absorbing the blood, and then burning out of thin air and turning into ashes.
"If I still have the possibility of awakening, I think I'll give it a try," Crete said in response to Allen's words, and then gripped the blade of the silver knife tightly, blood sliding down the handle of the silver knife onto the contract.
Dolan's attention was all on the gold coin in front of him, he picked up a bright gold coin, and played back and forth in the palm of his hand, "Money is a good thing, it can make people willing to abandon their lives, I used to think I wouldn't, but when so many gold coins are piled up in front of me, I actually think it's worth risking my life? After that, like Crete, he concocted the same way and signed a contract.
Seeing Laxa's cold and arrogant eyes looking at him, Minos was a little nervous, and said hesitantly, "Since Crete and Dolan have joined, I'll join too, Miss Klein," and then gently poked his fingertips with a silver knife and pressed his bloody fingers on the contract. Immediately after that, he performed a healing technique to heal the wounds of himself and the other three, and Allen's wounds were particularly deep, and Minos used a second-level healing light to heal.
Laksa nodded with satisfaction, and picked up a contract in front of her, "Well, very well, for the sake of fairness, I also have a contract here, if I break it, I will be strongly attacked by the curse power of your four contracts, so I will also keep my promise and will not joke with my life," and then cut his finger and slowly dripped dark red blood onto the contract・・・・・・
After signing the contract, several people began to plan how to make themselves stronger, Dolan's suggestion was to go to some mountain places to fight the thieves and bandits, but Minos wanted to find a place to meditate, Crete and Allen had surprisingly the same idea, learn from each other, grow together, everyone knew that the profession of the four was to restrain each other, but Laxa chuckled and vetoed everyone's suggestion.
"Although strength and weakness lie in the strength of the individual, but the key lies in cooperation, the last time the four of you cooperated in my tavern, it was an eye-opener for me. ”
Laxiha's words made the four of them stunned. However, the next sentence surprised the four of them.
"Are you interested in challenging Warcraft?"
・・・・・・
That night, Laxa didn't say much else, just told the four that there was a surprise waiting for them tomorrow. Charlie led the four of them to rest, and Laxa also returned to her bedroom, changed into a wide and soft nightgown, and stood in front of the mirror frowning and thinking about what she had thought about during the day, without the slightest sleepiness.
"That's not Allen, that's not Allen, it's not him, but who is it?・・・・・ how does he know that I have the blood of the Dark Elves... Allen, who are you, and why did the oracle I want to hear come out of your mouth・・・・・・・・?
This night, Charlie separated the four people and led them to four rooms, along the way, only Alan was silent, and Allen, with a complicated expression, lay on the soft bed and prepared to sleep in his clothes, but at the moment of closing his eyes, his consciousness suddenly became in a trance, and the next moment, a person who was exactly the same as himself stood in front of him, looking at himself expressionlessly, the only difference with himself was that there was a golden six-pointed star on his forehead, and a pair of eyes were like a vast starry sky.
"Who are you?" asked Alan calmly.
