Chapter 3 Contracts
From the first sight of the statue, Monro understood what had happened to him. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
It may take a lot of effort for the nobles in other places to determine the identity of the other party, but as a member of the frozen coast, Monroe's vigilance was already operating to the limit the first time he smelled the sulfur smell.
"It seems that you have understood, so what are your options?"
The mysterious voice still teased Monroe, the murderous intent in his words reminding him to make a wise choice.
"What do you need me to do, sir. ”
Monroe's tone was more humble, and his ruddy countenance faded from blood. Originally, he thought that the owner of the voice was just a clever wanderer, but he didn't expect that he would encounter a demon.
Yes, the pungent smell of sulfur is only found on two creatures, a rebellious red dragon and a terrifying demon.
"Damn, how can there be such a thing in the house!"
Monroe cursed inwardly, trying to soothe the fear in his heart.
"Isn't it normal to have such a thing, have you forgotten the identity of your ancestor?"
The guy who called himself Mephistopheles seemed to see through Munroe's inner thoughts, so he answered directly.
Hearing the other party's answer, Meng Luo first suddenly realized, and then the whole person fell into great fear. He smiled flatteringly at the statue and lowered his forehead, not daring to think nonsense any longer.
The Frozen Coast was once home to the temple of the goddess of winter.
Unlike other gods, this goddess with powerful divine powers is not keen on expanding her power. So apart from the frozen shores, her temples are barely to be seen anywhere else in the Material Continent.
Because of this, other gods would not choose to build the temple here to annoy the goddess of winter. As a result, the devotees living on the frozen shores proudly call this place the land of the goddess of winter.
In the year 325 of the Divine Calendar, the demons of the Endless Abyss and the gods of the astral plane fought a fierce battle.
In this battle, the demons died en masse. Corresponding to the horror of the demons, many gods have fallen in this battle, and the Goddess of Winter is one of them.
The death of the deity entails a series of subsequent reactions. Chief among them is that the temple's charismatic knights and priests have lost their divine powers.
Without the attention of the gods, the priests gradually became ordinary people.
The Divine Grace Knights are different, although the fighting spirit blessed by divine power has been lost, but their powerful flesh is still there, so they divided their territories with each other and became the first nobles of the Frozen Coast, and among them are the ancestors of Monroe.
In fact, Monroe's ancestors were not recognized in the "Morte" family, mainly because the lord had gone too far.
After the fall of the Goddess of Winter, the Knight of Iga simply took over a small territory, and then passed on the so-called earl title and dominion to his son. He chose to go deep into the endless abyss alone to avenge his gods.
No one knows what this knight who has fallen out of the legend after losing the blessing of divine power thinks it. Many people tried to dissuade him, but to no avail.
No matter what others say, he just wants to go to the endless abyss to die in ********.
In the end, he really died......
When Knight Iga left the Material Continent and went to the Endless Abyss, his son was only four months old.
The little one, who inherited the title of earl at the age of only four months, was raised by the Knight of Iga's mount, a gold-rank ice bear.
It is precisely because of this that he will take it upon himself to cross his father's name out of the family tree, and treat this ice bear as his biological father.
Until now, although some noble families of the lineage knew that the Iga knight was the true ancestor of the "Morte" family, no one dared to say so in front of the members of the "Morte" family.
Whether it is the "Moorte" family itself or other nobles, when referring to the ancestors of the Moorte family, they all use the term "ice bear" to refer to it.
Although Monro did not receive the education required of the nobility, he was also familiar with the names and legends of the family's ancestors.
This is what all people of noble blood must do, just as commoners never forget the names of their parents, if they knew.
Now that he understands, Monroe naturally doesn't wonder where this statue with a demonic aura came from.
As one of the many charismatic knights under the throne of the goddess of winter, the Iga knights fought against demons during the "Twilight Era". This statue is a souvenir or a trophy.
Thinking of this, Monlo couldn't help but smile bitterly in his heart. If this ancestor of his own, knowing that the items he left behind would now harm the lives of his descendants, I don't know if he would have left this statue behind.
"I think so. How can a person who can leave his four-month-old biological son in the ice and snow and let him be the companion of the ice giant bear, how can he care about a descendant who does not know how many generations have passed?"
The mysterious voice "kindly" explained the doubts in Monroe's heart, but to Monroe's ears, it was more like a coercion.
In a cold tone, he clearly dissected the indifference in the bloodline of the "Morte" family, and then put it in front of Monroe with blood. While shocking Monroe, it also stirred up memories of the past that he did not want to mention.
Mephistopheles' mind-reading ability frightened Monroe again, and he didn't dare to think nonsense, so he had to change the topic stiffly: "What does the adult need me to do, although I say it bluntly, I will definitely try to complete the adult's explanation." ”
"Do you want to be the master of the 'Moult Collar'?"
"Yes. ”
Now Monroe doesn't dare to be clever in front of this adult anymore. In any legend, demons are moody slayers, and if you don't have enough power, it's better not to sell your poor wisdom.
"Can adults help me, what do I need to give?"
After thinking about it for a long time, Monroe decided to communicate with the other party directly. Only in this way can you avoid causing impatience and tyranny in the other party's heart, and save your life as much as possible.
"Don't be afraid, I just want to make a deal with you. As long as you agree, we can even sign a contract under the will of the law. ”
"Contract?"
Monroe was a little moved. Although the contract is not absolute for the demons of the chaotic camp, it is also binding enough.
"Of course, as long as you can do things for me with peace of mind, I won't hurt you. Now, you should understand my sincerity, right?"
"Think about it, when you become the master of the 'Morte Collar', you will be able to enjoy all that your father can enjoy!power, wealth, beauty, ......"
"Can I enjoy everything my father enjoyed?"
Monroe muttered. The empty eyes showed that he had fallen into a beautiful fantasy.
"No, more than that! Because you have my help, you can get not only what your father can get, but also what he can't. ”
"Can't get it?"
"Ageless youth, eternal life, handsome face, and unparalleled strength ......"
Mephistopheles's voice was full of bewilderment, and the excitement in his heart made Monroe's face a little distorted and hideous. His eyes were red as he stared at the statue, and his pupils shone with a luster called greed.
PS: During this time, we must start to establish the worldview of the book, and we will start saving the manuscript in a few days, so as to ensure that the book will not be interrupted within the month when the author goes home during the summer vacation, so there may only be one update per day, forgive me.
However, I will guarantee the content of the book, after all, I have accumulated a lot of experience in the previous book.
