Hearing the magician's words, Rogge got up from his chair, pressed his hands on the table, and asked loudly, "How is qíngkuàng?"
The magician hurriedly replied, "Mr. Murphy said that the mission has been completed and that he will go to the intended location Děngdài to return!"
Hearing the magician's words, the corners of Rogge's stubble mouth showed a smile of satisfaction, he closed his eyes and smiled, raised his head and let out a long breath, waved his fist excitedly, turned back to everyone and said, "Come, let's welcome the return of the 'Scorpion'!"
He asked Tali to summon the god of lights, and asked him to twist the dimensional passage and create a dimensional gate at the location agreed with Murphy, and a moment later, the adventurer flashed in front of the dimensional gate with two swords on his back.
"Welcome, my dear brother!" Rogge stepped forward and opened his arms, and Murphy stepped forward to hug him and whispered in his ear, "You are such a prophet, I still don't understand how you guessed this yīqiē!"
"You'll find out soon!" Rogge smiled knowingly and patted him on the shoulder, thanked the lamp god and asked everyone to sit down in turn, and then asked Murphy about the qíngkuàng of Thunder Castle, and Murphy told them what happened to Zìjǐ.
It turned out that when Murphy passed through the dimensional gate to the outside of Thundercastle as Rogge had ordered, he saw that Tyrell's army had broken through the outer city, and there were earth-shattering shouts everywhere, and the corpses of the giants were lying on the ground lying outside the city.
Murphy avoided the bloody battlefield outside the city and rushed into the city as fast as he could, and when he reached the palace hall of the castle in the inner city, he happened to see Thorin being carried out of the hall, and Tyrell was standing in front of the great sword of thunder, reaching out to draw the sword.
Seeing this, Murphy shouted urgently, and the shout echoed through the hall, causing Tyrell's hand to hold the hilt of the sword hesitate for a moment, and the Titan Prince and his generals followed the sound together, and when they found Murphy's figure, they couldn't help but be stunned for a moment.
Tyrell summoned Murphy to ask him about his purpose, and Murphy told Tyrell what Rogge had said, and the Titan Prince was shocked when he heard this, and hurriedly ordered someone to follow Rogge's prompt to inspect Thorin's hand, and found a small wound on his right hand, and a trace of black blood oozed from the wound.
Seeing this, Tyrell knew that what Rogge said was true, and hurriedly ordered someone to inspect the Thunder Sword, and found two small blood-stained thorns on the hilt, their existence difficult to detect without looking closely.
Tyrell ordered them to be removed, and the hilt was rechecked to make sure it was correct before he picked up the Thunder Sword, and the moment his hand grasped the hilt, the lightning-like blade of the Thunder Sword bloomed with dazzling light, drowning the entire hall in a white electric light.
With a loud shout, Tyrell pulled out the sword of thunder that was plunged into the ground, and a thunderbolt fell from the sky and struck the spire of Thunder Castle, the roar of thunder echoed in everyone's ears, and all the Titan giants fell to their knees at the same time, and the mountain shouted long live.
......
After finishing zìjǐ's narration, Murphy glanced at the joy and amazement on everyone's faces, dropped his curious gaze on Rogge's face, and asked with a smile: "My gùshì is finished, now you should tell us, what is going on with this yīqiē?"
"Also, how did you determine if Douglas was a traitor?" Antonio eagerly asked the question that had been buried in his mind for a long time.
Rogge looked back at Lilith, whose mouth was full of cookie crumbs, and smiled, "When I asked Lilith to hypnotize Douglas, I first asked him two questions, and that was what he thought of William and me. ”
Little Lori heard his name and looked up at him curiously, Rogge grimaced at her, turned around and continued: "I first confirmed that he was under the influence of hypnosis, because he called me and William to his face both enemies and criminals, and his desire to arrest me was even stronger. ”
He smiled and looked around at everyone and asked: "At that time, his life was in my hands, if he could really control Zìjǐ and had a conspiracy, he would not take the initiative to anger me before the big thing was accomplished, his performance was a natural outpouring of his inner subconscious, and under this subconscious, he called William an enemy, which means that he did not take refuge in William." ”
"I see," said Antonio, with a long sigh, "but unfortunately I didn't really believe Douglas until he was dying." ”
"This is exactly what William wanted, he first invaded Douglas's mind to get the whereabouts of the magic lamp, and then threw Douglas to us to create infighting, and the reason why he didn't attack Tali on the spot was because he was afraid that you and I were nearby. Rogge patted Antonio on the shoulder and said, "Fortunately, we didn't make a big mistake." ”
He paused for a moment and continued: "As for cracking William's plot, let's start with what he said to the Wright brothers and Douglas, he inadvertently left some key words: brother, sword, scorpion, death, last step......"
"First of all, what Wright Jr. told me, William said that he liked to die by the same sword, and I believe that William's words were in no way aimed at these two children who had nothing to do with him, and the ones we have known to have implicated the most with him are the brothers Thorin and Tyrrell. ”
Rogge glanced at everyone's thoughtful expressions and said, "It's a coincidence, isn't it? The two Titan brothers also have a sword horizontally, and this is the key to their contention, and William's words indicate that he wants the brothers to die under this sword, and what can do it?"
"Jumbo snake venom!" Murphy said first.
"Yes," Rogge nodded in agreement, "but neither Thorin nor Tyrell got this sword, and it was inevitable that the sword would hurt both of them at the same time, so it was impossible for William to achieve his goal by applying poison to the blade." ”
"But if you poison the hilt of the sword that both of you can hold, William's poison is not enough, and the venom of the Jumbo snake cannot enter the body through the undamaged skin, so William added an iron spike to the hilt of the sword, and painted snake venom on its surface, like a scorpion's tail hook, and he has a weapon foundry in the Tomb of the Titans, which is easy to do. ”
"I see!" Murphy and Catherine exchanged glances and nodded in understanding.
Rogge drew a circle around the key words with his finger and said with a smile: "This is the meaning of brothers, swords, scorpions and death, I think when William invaded Douglas's mind, what he thought in his heart should be: that sword will be like the poisonous tail of a scorpion, bringing them all to death, and now I have only one last step left......"
"What's the last step?" asked Tali, looking at Rogge curiously.
"The last step is you and the god of lights!" Rog said with a smile, pointing to the oil lamp on Tali's waist.
He turned his gaze back to Antonio and said, "William led us to Elland Island in order to stall for time, he designed to lead you to the Ice and Fire Cave of Singing Falls, and then besieged your griffons, weakening your mobility. ”
"After that, the only thing that can stand in his way is the Lamp God," Rogge turned his gaze back to Tali's face and smiled, "If he takes the magic lamp from you, even if we find out about his plot, we won't have time to stop it at Thundercastle, and both Tyrell and Thorin will die from the Treasure Serpent Venom!"
He brought the coffee in front of him to his mouth, took a shallow sip, and said with a smile: "When we arrive at Thunder Castle, the time has already passed the 24-hour antidote validity, even if we have the antidote to the venom of the treasure snake, we can't save Tyrell, the Titan royal family will be destroyed, and the Titan clan will fall into turmoil, this is a big game of chess played by William." ”
After listening to Rogge's explanation, the people present couldn't help but suddenly realize that they all had a feeling of waking up from a dream.
Rogge glanced at Catherine with a smile and said to everyone, "Speaking of which, thanks to Miss Catherine's reminder, if she hadn't erased the letter 'n' from the word 'Scorpio' for me on the Organ Coast, I might have missed a big deal by mispronouncing the word in Douglas's mouth!"
After hearing this, everyone present looked at Catherine with appreciation, the girl blushed and shook her head, but she couldn't say a word, her shy cheeks were hot, Lilith, who had been eating snacks with her head bored, picked up a cookie and came to her and smiled: "This is a reward for the stupid girl, you are smarter than me this time!"
The people present were amused by the little Lori, Catherine smiled and took the biscuit handed over by Lilith, held her in her arms and kissed her delicate little cheek, gently took a bite of the sweet biscuit, and glanced at Roger with a smile, the appreciation in Rogge's eyes made her heart sweeter than the biscuit in her mouth.
"This time, we won the game for the time being, but that doesn't mean we can rest easy, because the holy artifact hasn't been found yet. Rogge drank the coffee from his cup and said to everyone with a smile on his face.
After learning that Murphy had left the antidote to the venom of the Treasure Snake to Tyrell, he said to Antonio: "I'm afraid the Knights can't rest for the time being, we need to search the Organ Coast for William's whereabouts, that bastard may not die so easily." ”
"I will also send someone to assist Captain Antonio in the search. Kevin, the dean of the School of Magic, responded.
Rogge nodded in agreement, and then everyone went back to their rooms to rest. When he awoke from his sleep, it was already sunset, and he learned from Kevin that the knights and magicians sent to search had not found William's body, nor had there been any evidence that he was dead, and William had disappeared.
"As I thought, this guy won't die that easily!" Rogge sneered softly, turned back to Antonio, and said, "It seems that our troubles are far from over!"
"What do you suggest next?" asked Antonio, concerned.
"Now we have lost all the clues, not even William is gone. Rogge walked to the window, looked at the blood-soaked sunset on the horizon, and said meaningfully, "But we will definitely meet him again, because we have the same goal as him, and that is the holy weapon!"
"What do you mean......" Antonio and Kevin asked as they walked up to him and looked at him.
"We know that the Hallows must be combined into three pieces to be useful, and that William's plot on the Ice Isle has failed, and he will not continue to waste time here, he will turn his attention to the second part of the Archangel's Staff, the white jade staff guarded by the dragons. ”
Speaking of this, Rogge turned back to the two of them and smiled mysteriously and said, "That's right, that's it! Sun and Moon Forest, let's give William a time to wait for the rabbit! A new chess game begins!"
