Chapter 30: Provocation
The night of Valan has far more prosperity than that of Golin, the light of the magic crystal makes the city bright and bright under the night sky, among the countless buildings, the most worth seeing, one is the Temple of Light, the other is the Grand Duke's Palace, the former is still solemn, the latter is located in the central area of Valan, like an ancient castle standing still in the wall several meters high, here is far different from the noise of the city, behind the wall, there are more than twenty meters of gardens and fountains, all the noise from Valan will be covered by the sound of the fountain. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
In the largest hall on the third floor, in the Grand Duke's reception room, Grand Justice Corot said in a pleading tone, "Respected Grand Demon Guide Mejedorf, as the Grand Duke of Uli, I have already existed in name only, if you have pity on the people of Uli, please take action to stop their current war!"
Mejedorf put down his crutches with both hands, sat opposite the Grand Duke, smiled and listened to the Grand Duke's words, and said, "Grand Duke, you should know that I am eighty years old, my magic power is long gone, I no longer have the ability to stop the war, most of the magicians in the Wizards Guild today have also chosen to vote for one of their camps, nominally I am still the president of the Wizards Guild, in fact, the magicians who can be invited are only a few old friends, I am afraid that I will not be able to fulfill the will of the Grand Duke." ”
Grand Duke Coro's face was full of fatigue, and he sighed again and again, "If I hadn't been so mediocre, Uli wouldn't have such chaos, I, I, I don't know how to tell you, I'm ......"
Mejdorf's old face was still smiling, he slowly closed his eyes, leaned back in his chair, and said, " I know that you came to the Norhymic Kingdom from the Keton Empire to establish Uli, it was the royal family of the Keton Empire, I already knew this back then, but I still helped you establish Uli, because the Polan royal family is really mediocre, and the people of Noshymic can no longer continue to accept their exploitation and oppression, although you have secretly given a lot of Uli's resources to the Keton Empire in the past few decades, but Ulli is indeed much richer than when the Pollan royal family ruled, and because of this, I will come to your Grand Duke's Mansion today. ”
Grand Duke Koro looked ashamed and said, "It turns out that you all know that even if the people of Uri are richer and stronger than the Noshemik Kingdom, they are slaves controlled by the Keton Empire using me, this is also an indisputable fact, I am ashamed of all the people of Uri, especially now, I deeply feel my sin. ”
The Grand Duke sighed with remorse and self-reproach, and then said, "So now I intend to give up the position of Grand Duke, and I don't know if you have any reliable candidates." ”
The Grand Magister slowly opened his eyes, and his wrinkled eyes lit up with a sharp light for a moment, and then disappeared, regaining the depth of his wisdom again, and said, "I can understand your thoughts, either Baal or Moga wins, Odyssi will usurp your position as Grand Duke, and you can indeed avoid trouble by taking the initiative to give up the name of Grand Duke now." ”
"But I advise you to wait, for three magicians from the House of Ball have just visited Mejdorf City, and I think they will visit Barr and Brooklyn, and even O'Desi. ”
Archduke Koro was amazed, "The Bol family of the Pirosa Empire! How did they come all the way to Uri?"
Mejdorf did not answer the Grand Duke's question, on crutches, an aperture appeared in front of him, and the distorted space in the aperture shimmered with the light of the stars, and the Grand Magus walked into it, and after the aperture closed, Grand Duke Koro sat back in his chair and pondered Mejdorf's words.
Zimon, who rushed back to Valan, went to the hotel where he stayed with Brownie before, Chacha and Brownie were gone, and the innkeeper said that they had left ten days ago, and it was rare for a subordinate, and his whereabouts made the gangsters a little frustrated, as for Chacha, Zimon actually wished that she had been abducted and sold.
The thugs had felt that their situation was precarious on Yemeng's rare smile, and if someone became another faith other than him, the authority of Qimeng's words on Yemeng would undoubtedly be affected in the future.
Thinking of Yemeng, Qi Meng went to the church of the Church of Light again, this time he didn't dare to go to the Temple of Light again, and learned from the church that Yemeng had left Uri in advance and went to the Keton Empire, according to the godfather, Nurbi meant that Uri was in an eventful season, hindering the spread of light, and temporarily evacuated a large number of church members of the Church of Light.
At night, Qi Meng, who was in a hotel, stared at the bright lights outside the window, and suddenly felt a little lonely, Morodis immediately called a few prostitutes when he came in, and went to have fun on his own, and the thugs who were responsible for guarding lived in the same room with Sophie, but the girl only scolded Qi Meng with a few words.
The thug was in a very bad mood, and sneered, "Dear Miss Sophie, since you think I am a demon, then you should have a little respectful attitude towards the demon, otherwise this lonely man and widow, the night is dark and the wind is high, and the demon and the girl are likely to have something happen in bed." ”
Sophie snorted coldly, ignoring Qi Meng's intimidation. In order to prevent her from escaping completely, Morodis also placed another seal on the girl's body, which not only further limited her magical power, but also weakened her half-dragon physique.
At this time, the girl was tied hands and feet, reclining on the sofa, the graceful body curve can be seen, the moonlight outside the window sprinkled on the girl's white gauze skirt, indescribably wonderful, the indifference on her face made the gangster a little annoyed, smiled coldly, and said, "It seems that I don't pay a little practical action, you still don't understand your situation and mine." ”
Saying that, Qi Meng stretched out his hand to the girl's chest, squeezed it hard, Sophie screamed, her eyes were red, she stared at Qi Meng, bit her lower lip tightly, and tried her best to endure the tears in her eyes did not fall, the girl's appearance made the gangster a little soft-hearted, I am afraid that no one in the world can stay angry under Sophie's resentful and tearful gaze, he has already lost all his anger, but he still regrets a little, sighed and said, "Miss Sophie, I hope you can understand me." ”
Throwing these words, Zimon walked out of the room, walked down the street of Valan, followed the route of memory, walked to the door of a hotel, and the contemplative thug paused for a moment, walked in, and sat down where he had sat in the past.
The men and women who came and went were all smiling, but the faces of the thugs were gloomy and terrifying, and his gaze swept across the dance floor, over the faces of everyone who came in and out, and finally fixed on a man in a gown with a wine glass.
A smile bloomed on the gangster's face, elegant and calm, a typical aristocratic smile, he took a glass of red wine, walked up to the man, and smiled, "Dear Mr. Mord, I haven't seen you for a long time, you seem to have mixed very well." ”
Mord turned his head in the conversation with others, and instinctively took a step back for Qi Meng's sudden arrival, but he thought of Qi Meng's ability, coupled with the smile on the gangster's face at this time, he quickly put his mind at ease, took two steps forward, came to Qi Meng's face, and said lightly" Oh, it's Zimon, it's a miracle that you can come back alive from the Valley of the Savages, and you still have the courage to come to me, it seems that you want to add to my ass like Timbar's feet, but you should know that I have always looked down on you as a dignified little bastard, and if you are willing to cut off your arms to make formal reparations to me, and hand over your sister to me, perhaps I will consider forgiving you. ”
Mod's words spread to every corner of the dance floor, and everyone noticed Qi Meng and Mo De, including the woman who served the gangsters red wine at the beginning, and immediately ran to Qi Meng, looked at the gangsters in amazement, and said, "This gentleman, do you remember me, I really regret watching them beat you like that, I'm very sorry, why don't I apologize to you tonight?"
Qi Meng looked surprised, and said, "Okay, but the environment of this hotel is too bad, you go to the door and wait for me first." ”
The woman winked at Mord, turned her head and kissed Zimeng again, and left with a girlish smile.
The thugs came out of the back door of the hotel with a smile on their faces, and when they reached an alley, Mord called two third-level warriors and followed them out of the hotel.
"I said Zimon ......" Modder smiled easily, but his words were as caught off guard as he was knocked to the ground by Qi Meng's sudden punch, his teeth flew to the ground with him falling, the other two saw this, and hurriedly took out the dagger and stabbed at the gangster, Qi Meng condensed the fighting spirit in both hands, held a dagger in one hand, blood overflowed from between his fingers, the two struggled to pull out the dagger, but the gangster's body seemed to take root on the ground, not moving at all, the two had to continue to stimulate the fighting spirit, at this time Qi Meng let go of his hands again, the two staggered back a few steps, just stabilized their footing, Qi Meng's spell had hit, and a third-level flame spell sent the two third-level martial artists to the sky。
Qi Meng, who was sold to the Sunset Mercenary for less than a month, changed from a third-level martial artist to a sixth-level martial artist, such a change was incomprehensible to Mode, after witnessing his companion being buried in the fire, he took out a dagger, and before Qi Meng turned around, he stimulated the fighting spirit of his whole body and stabbed it.
The thug only felt a sharp pain in his back, and immediately swung a punch back, and the blood-soaked Mord took a few steps back, dodged the punch, looked at the bright dagger behind Qi Meng's back, and sneered, "It turns out that Meng Tianyuan has grown in ability, no wonder he dares to come to me for revenge, but you still can't escape the fate of death." ”
But Qi Meng did not fall down as he imagined, the gangster with his spine pierced looked at him angrily, but there was no sign of falling, with angry red eyes, he approached Modder step by step, Mod was a little panicked, and screamed "You, what kind of monster are you!"
In fact, since Qi Meng was cursed by Manqi, his body has been modified, and it is difficult to inflict fatal injuries on his body with ordinary attacks, although pain and bleeding are inevitable, but they are difficult to fatalize.
With each step of Qi Meng, Mord felt that the surroundings were darkened, the cold breath slowly flowed, constantly sweeping on his skin, his legs involuntarily fell into trembling, Mord realized that something terrible was happening, adhering to the gangster spirit of hitting if he could fight, and running if he couldn't beat, turned around and wanted to run towards the exit of the alley, when he turned back, the dark energy quickly poured into his body, poured into every vein, every inch of muscle, and then sucked every drop of blood in his body!
At this time, the alley was safely shrouded in dark energy, and the light outside could not illuminate the alley at all, Qi Meng dispelled the dark energy, revealing the dry Mode, still maintaining a running posture, he was not dead, in the deeply sunken eye sockets, his eyes were still turning, a light breeze blew, the frightened Mod fell, and his soul disappeared at that moment, Qi Meng couldn't catch it, he was annoyed, and scolded "Damn, I actually forgot that there is no soul cursed by me, I can't control it, let Mod die like this, it's really damn!" ”
The thug pulled out his dagger, a burst of vertigo almost made him fall, he found that the mark of the demon contract continued to transmit the dark energy of Morodis at the same time, but also integrated a part of the dark energy into his soul, at this time, in his ears, the screams of several women sounded, although the sound was small but still audible, Zimon knew that this came from a few prostitutes beside Morodis.
The thug smiled bitterly, "With the power of Morodis, it really won't be that simple. ”
"You've summoned my power so quickly, faster than I thought, how does it feel like darkness soaking my soul?" Morodis's thoughts rang in Zimmon's ears through the demonic contract.
"The cold feeling is too good, but it doesn't diminish my enthusiasm for you in the slightest!" After saying that, Qi Meng shook a little and walked out of the alley.
Soon after, another female corpse appeared on the street in front of the hotel, and Valan, who rarely even had a fight, killed four people in one night, shocking the entire Valan, and no one dared to go wild in the open! The angry nobles turned their eyes to the Church of Light and the Berserker Knights.
Some people even think of the war between Baal and Moga in the distance, thinking that it is a sign of the fading light, while others believe that it has nothing to do with the light of Valan, but only a few outsiders who have brought hatred and killing, and the hometown of these outsiders does not have a light like Valan, and can only be regarded as outsiders defiling the quiet and peaceful holy place of light in Valan.
However, their discussion was not over, and the news of the murder of four prostitutes in a certain hotel followed, and the death of the strong was so horrific that they also turned into dried corpses.
The nobles of Valan may still have nothing to fear, but the commoners of Valan only rely on the light, and now they are completely panicked, and there are many more people who go to the church to pray!
And the nobles who went to the Berserk Knights to ask them to catch the murderer quickly were much more than in the past.
As the two murderers, Zimon and Morodis, who had just entered the Temple of Light at this time, were able to walk in here on the grounds that they had caught the demon who committed the crime, and wanted to meet Nurbi in person and present the prisoner, of course, this could not stop the Knights of Light from doing their duty, but after being intimidated by Morodis's soul, their bodies went against their will.
There is an angel statue in the temple of light supported by fifteen or sixteen meters of stone pillars, and the smooth and mirror-like ground is paved with spars, and you can faintly see the magic symbols hidden in these spars, there is no doubt that there is a light magic array here.
Qi Meng hadn't set foot in it yet, and he was already feeling a little uncomfortable outside the hall. With a smile on his face, Morodis gently patted Qimeng's shoulder, and used a concealment technique on Qimeng's body, and the gangsters settled down in the temple nervously, making sure that the magic array was not triggered, and boldly followed Morodis to Nurbi who prayed in front of the temple.
The archbishop made a final prayer and turned to greet him with a gentle and peaceful smile, smiling and saying, "I have long known that the followers of the Believers of the Light will not tolerate impunity from the demons, and you are welcome, faithful believers of the Light. ”
Morodis stared at Nurbi, a strange smile appeared on his bewitching face, did not respond to Nurbi, and in the face of the archbishop's greeting, Morodis was also indifferent, and the atmosphere suddenly became awkward.
Qi Meng hurriedly coughed dryly, and said, "Dear Lord Nurbi, I have taken the criminals out of the temple, and I hope that Lord Nurbi will personally adjudicate them, so that the bastard who insults the light and defiles Valan, I propose to be executed publicly, so that the nobles and commoners of Valan can witness the fate of the demons, and the light will always be served!" Saying that, Qi Meng became more and more excited, and his saliva unconsciously sprayed the Temple of Light.
Nurbi's smile remained unchanged and said, "The fate of the demon is deserved, but in order to ensure that the criminal is indeed a criminal, I still need to take a look first, as far as I know, among the few people who were killed, several of them had demonic power remaining in their bodies. ”
"In order not to pollute the sacred place of mercy of the God of Light, we have pressed him out of the temple, and we have troubled Lord Nurbi to take a look at him himself. ”
There was a man kneeling on the stairs outside the temple with a bloody face, his eyes were blood-red and bloodshot at this time, and his hands and feet were chained, but he didn't care about biting Nurby, but unfortunately his legs were blurred with blood, and he couldn't stand, and he gnawed on the stone steps of the Temple of Light before Nurbi could bite it.
Nurbi stretched out his hand and put it on the man's shoulder, the faintly lit white holy light enveloped the man's whole body, a look of pain appeared on his hideous face, a black light rushed out of his body, Nurbi's hand was shaken away, the archbishop looked at the man on the ground in shock, and glanced at Morodis again, his solemn face was fleeting, and he said angrily" It seems that it is a believer in the demon, such a strong dark force, this demon must have killed a lot of lives before meeting the two, such a demon let everyone know that his demise is necessary, at least the demise of sin, is what every light believer should know. ”
"In that case, honorable Lord Nurbi, we will retire first, and I hope you will also inform us on the day of the execution. Zimmon saluted Nurbi, and Morodis stood behind him, his eyes swept over the angel in the temple from time to time.
When the two of them had completely walked away, Archbishop Nurbi breathed a sigh of relief and shouted angrily, "Come, come!"
The knights of light, who were guarding the temple of light, trembled their legs, and when they came to the archbishop, they heard Nurbi angrily scold, "It's you incompetent knights, you let the demons desecrate the temple, and don't let him loose." ”
The Knight of Light followed Nurbi's finger and saw the prisoner kneeling on the ground, and he only realized it when he watched carefully......
This so-called criminal turned out to be a bishop of Valan!
