【Wandering】Section 3 Regulus (II)
"Stop the Demon God?"
"Yes, after the last encounter in Miller, coupled with the existence of the Otherworldly Gate of St. Lucas, which Dan Ke suspected before, I am even more convinced that the Demon God is the 'disaster' that the Children of God have to deal with, and the Demon God is also the common enemy of all of us!"
"So if we can make St. Lucas realize that the Demon God is our enemy, then this war can be avoided?" Regulus asked, "But wouldn't St. Lucas take the initiative to cooperate with the Demon God like Miller......?
"It was only Salde's personal plan to use the Demon God before, and most of Miller were victims in the dark, and I believe that those who rebelled against the Demon God must be in the majority. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info"
"But you still need someone to confirm the relationship between St. Lucas and the Demon God. ”
"That's exactly what Danco and Marshall are doing on this trip, so you don't have to worry about it. ”
"If they really encounter the Demon God, how will they seal the gate?" Regulus asked, "They need the help of someone who can seal the Demon God!"
"But didn't you say that you had exhausted all your power when you sealed the Demon God before?" and as far as I know from Danko, in the story that the Sword Spirit told you, the key to sealing the Demon God was the sword, but that sword is still sealing the passage opened by Salder in the land of Mille, and what can you help without the Sealed Sword and without the divine power?" Joshua asked mercilessly.
"There will always be a way, I believe that as the god of war, my strength will not be limited to this point. Although Regulus replied, he was actually completely unsure in his heart, he said this just to let Joshua help him go to St. Rucas, now he didn't think about how to deal with the demon god, his first task was to help Luna fulfill her wish, he just needed a reason to convince Joshua.
Joshua paced back and forth in front of the window, glancing at Luna from time to time, and after making sure that Luna was not running around, he said to Regulus solemnly, "I can't help you." ”
"Why?" said Regulus, who almost cried out, and asked Joshua with his hands in hanging, "Didn't you help Danko and them to St. Lucas?!Why can't you help us in the same way?"
"Dan Ke they walked over, and it is estimated that they have not yet crossed the sea of war, and this kind of infiltration mission cannot be too ostentatious. Joshua had a straight face, and his attitude was very resolute.
"Don't you have some teleportation spells and scrolls, you brought us back in an instant when we were in Miller before, can't you let us teleport to St. Lucas in an instant?"
"No, you can't. Joshua shook his head, "Teleporting back to Vasilian is based on the mystery of the cave that my father told me, and the cave in the Dead Forest and the cave in Miller both have a circle of teleportation, and a passage has been established that makes teleportation possible. As for the scroll I teleported to Clark to Oden, it was only after we formed an alliance with Oden that Oden had the connection between them and the circle on their tower. If it was really possible to teleport to another country so casually, then fighting a war and infiltrating assassination would not be so troublesome. ”
"So you don't want to help us?" Regulus didn't care about Joshua's explanation, he only felt that Joshua didn't want to help them at all, he began to regret that he had boasted to Luna before, if he knew that their trip was in vain, and he didn't know what Luna was going to think of him, "Then let's go over too, I don't believe there is no other way!"
"Not to mention the basic skills and spells that you will not be able to sneak into, you are now going to take a girl on a long journey across the ocean to a heavily guarded place, even if you can get lucky enough to reach the land of St. Lucas, but can you guarantee her safety?"
"I'll protect her with my life, at least I'd rather treat her as a friend than an enemy than you. Regulus felt that there was no need to dwell on the archbishop any longer, believing that he could find another way to St. Lucas, and he was about to leave, but then Joshua stopped him-
"Wait. ”
"What?" Regulus said, "since you won't help me, then I'll take my leave." ”
"If you have the consciousness to give your life, I have a solution, I wonder if you would like to try?" Joshua's expression suddenly became a little elusive, he bowed his head slightly, but he glanced upwards at Regulus, who was about to leave, which made the latter feel a little uncomfortable.
"What do you mean?"
"Come with me to my lab. Joshua walked out the door, and as soon as he reached the hallway, he turned back to Regulus and added, "You may also call that girl, and let her know about this kind of gambling if you take her seriously." ”
"Bet your life?" Regulus looked at Joshua's back as he walked deeper into the third floor, his mind full of questions, but he poked his head out of the window of the meeting room to call Luna up and down the statue of Ethel.
A few minutes later, inside the archbishop's laboratory.
"Why are you two big men calling me back now, am I not going to get in the way of your discussions?" Luna sneered at Joshua with a straight face.
"Regulus is going to risk his life to take you to St. Lucas, and as his friend, I must let you see him and say goodbye, or else this will probably be the last time you two will meet. Joshua explained this to Luna, but it only made Regulus even more confused, and he didn't think Luna would have any friendship with him, after all, they had only known each other for a few days, and so far it was all just wishful thinking, but when he looked at Luna, he swore that he saw that Luna's eyes seemed to be touched a little, much more softened than when he glared at him angrily.
"Risking your life?" Luna's eyes widened, "What does that mean?"
"yes, what do you mean, how are you going to get us to St. Lucas?" said Regulus, who also asked his own question.
Joshua didn't bother answering their questions, but took out a small glass bottle from the small drawer of the test bench with some unidentified powder, and walked back to the two of them with the glass bottle.
"What is this?" asked Regulus.
"This is part of the remains of Salder that I brought back from Miller, he was blown to pieces by Jack's psychic magic, you know, and the powder is one of the things he can leave behind. ”
"How is this going to help us get to San Lucas?" asked Regulus.
"Do you remember that Sald absorbed the power of the demon god Dorag?"
Regulus remembered the half-dragon, half-human monster that had killed Sheon and many warriors, and that Hughne's death had triggered his hidden powers, and he had easily defeated the Demon God only to escape. Regulus considered that the explosion of power to be the most powerful in his memory, and if he could easily control that power, he could have ended Miller's war alone, and he could have fought against the demon gods when they attacked, and Alyssa would not have died to save him. He knew that Nadorag had the ability to open doors to the Otherworld in the air, and with this ability, he unleashed many demons who fought for him, and that Salder finally opened the door to the Otherworld. "I remember. He replied.
"I've been studying Salde's remains these days, trying to extract from these powders the power of Dorag's Otherworldly Gateway, and just yesterday I finally made progress, but it takes a living person to be the vehicle of this power...... It's important, I can't just ask someone to be a test subject, and I can't guarantee the safety of the test......" Joshua's voice began to grow a little uncertain.
"So I'm the perfect test to send to my door. Regulus replied for him, "But what does the power of Dorag have to do with us going to St. Lucas?"
"Dorag has the ability to open the gates of the Otherworld. Joshua repeated.
Regulus suddenly understood: "You mean to enter the Otherworld from here and then come out from there? Isn't it just a guess that St. Lucas has a gate to the Otherworld?"
"So this solution is a gamble, not only because of the risk of gaining Dorag's power as a test subject, but also because of the possibility of being trapped in the other world forever. ”
"How could you possibly let me take Luna with such a dangerous person?!" Regulus looked at Luna, who was listening to the conversation between the two of them with a blank expression, it didn't matter if he was in the other world, but he wouldn't let Luna suffer the same fate as him, so he freed her from that hellish pearl courtyard, and couldn't let her fall into another hell, a real hell full of demons.
"I didn't say you were going to take Luna to the Atlas. Joshua replied, "My plan is for you to successfully reach St. Lucas and use the method I taught you to build a teleportation circle in St. Lucas at the appointed time, and then I will teleport Luna to St. Lucas through the circle. ”
"This will also provide you with the conditions for infiltrating St. Lucas or conducting a surprise attack in the future, which is just the right time for you to kill two birds with one stone. Regulus saw Joshua's other plans, and he knew that if the teleportation circle was successfully established, Vasilian would have no trouble invading St. Lucas, and might soon be able to annihilate it and expand the hegemony of the Targarion dynasty.
"Not bad. "But you have no other way, and through this gamble you will be able to verify the truth of the Otherworldly Gate while gaining Dorag's abilities, and you will be able to make a great contribution to Vasilian without having to cross the heavily guarded sea of war, and you may die before you see the coastline of St. Lucas." The choice is yours. ”
Regulus looked at Luna, who was looking at him intently, and when she saw Regulus looking at her, she immediately turned her head away, but asked with a hint of worry in her tone that Regulus believed he felt, "Are you really going to do this for me?"
"I promised you, and I will help you make your wish come true. Regulus smiled at Luna and walked over to Joshua.
"Enlightened?" asked Joshua.
"Let's get started!"
