Chapter 11 The Passing Years I
The sky of the 'Windfury Rift' returned to its watery purity, and a huge light blue moon wheel floated silently in the air.
The dragons are long gone.
In the daytime battle, the only Witnesses today are a thousand dried corpses in different postures.
Under the cover of night, several figures sneaked up on the edge of the rift. They watched cautiously until they were sure that all the dragons were gone, and then they leapt into the rift and searched the valley one by one.
Except for a chubby figure with clumsy movements, the other three were as fast as lightning, and in the blink of an eye, they had searched for the 'Wind Fury Rift'.
Moments later, the four gathered in the middle of the rift.
"Dead fatty, we have searched the entire valley floor, and we haven't seen the dragon eye of the three-headed dragon, which dragon may have been taken away. The body of the Silver Dragon King is also gone, and it should have been taken away by its people. Looking around, there are only a few dozen dragon scales that are useful at the bottom of the valley. ”
These four people are none other than Rogge and the others who went and returned.
The dragon's entire body would glow softly with gold in Rogge's eyes, especially these rare high-level dragons, which were priceless! Although Rogge was close to bankruptcy, he knew that the act of harvesting the dragon's corpse and treating it as a precious raw material was a great insult to the dragons. Although he remembered the corpse of the Silver Dragon King and the eyes of the three-headed dragon, he would never pick them up in front of many dragons. In case of angering these dragons, especially the mysterious colorful dragon, Rogge estimated that all four of them would be buried with the Silver Dragon King.
Looking at the dozens of huge scales that still had a trace of the silver dragon king's flesh and blood, Rogge felt that it was somewhat rewarding. Although the dragon's eye is precious, he doesn't know what he can do to use it. Maybe it's a good idea to sell it to the royal family and nobles at a high price, and the dragon eye can provide these people with a rare opportunity to show off, and they will definitely pay a lot of money.
Seeing that Rogge was a little unwilling, Xius immediately said, "Lord Rogge, judging from the traces at the bottom of the valley, the red dragon injured by you left in the southeast direction alone. The Red Dragon is not known for its resilience, and with such a serious injury, it is estimated that we will be able to catch up with it in a few days. 'Pure Red Fury' should be worth a lot. ”
Rog was about to say something when a violent cough interrupted him, and even a little blood star erupted from his mouth.
Hughes sighed, "Lord Rogge, although the cursed scroll is cheap, the more powerful it is, the more powerful the curse. And this kind of scroll is much less powerful than normal scrolls, such as the steel golem scroll you use, which is surprisingly short in time. Therefore, it is better to use this kind of thing less in the future. ”
Rogge had calmed down his violent cough and gasped: "It doesn't matter, these curses are nothing, even if I can't solve them, I can still stand up, just survive these few days." The Red Dragon...... Let's let it go for now, the internal situation in the principality is still unstable, we have been out long enough, it is time to go back. Don't let the druids take advantage of it. ”
As soon as he returned to Dresden, Rogge received an urgent report from the Eye of Wisdom that the main temple had been attacked by unknown assassins and that the Holy Child had been killed!
Rogge's face was expressionless, and he immediately rushed to the main hall of the Eye of Wisdom.
In a secret room in the main hall, Mora and Elder Calmon had a long secret discussion with Rogge, who finally had a rough idea of what had happened.
Soon after Rogge and the others left, a group of killers raided the main temple of the Eye of Wisdom.
The time of their attack was chosen at noon. It was early autumn, and the weather in Dresden was still very hot, and many people would take a nap at noon, which was the time when the defense was at its most relaxed.
There were more than ten killers who came to raid this time, all of whom were well-trained, cooperated tacitly, and used ruthless methods. But in terms of their style, these people are all professional killers, which is completely different from the previous druids and warriors in Cloudnight City.
These killers are targeting the Holy Child. Knowing the layout of the main hall of the Eye of Wisdom, they attacked the back of the main hall and rushed to the room next to the prayer room where the Holy Child was placed.
In fact, Rogge had already arranged everything, and when Mora brought out a good baby girl, this baby girl was usually placed in the prayer room, before the altar, and occasionally accepted the worship of the believers. A baby girl was also housed in another well-guarded chamber, and Mora would spend a short time in that chamber every day. At the door of this room, there are several guards with good martial arts skills at all times. Every few days, Kalmon would replenish the magic of the defensive magic array on the door of the room. The dozens of other selected girls were placed in several small buildings behind the main hall, where they were cared for by some congregants.
The target of this group of killers is the baby girl in the secret room. However, they did not spare the baby girl in the prayer room, and under the attack of forgetting their lives, the killers opened the way to the altar and the secret room almost at the cost of their own lives. They moved extremely quickly, and by the time Mora and Kalmon got the news and arrived with a large group of guards, the killers had already killed dozens of guards and two magicians, successfully stabbed two baby girls, and were about to retreat.
After a fierce battle, more than 20 of the attacking killers were killed, three were seriously wounded and captured, and only two managed to escape.
Elder Kalmon immediately informed the Grand Duke's Mansion and summoned several torture experts to see if he could get something out of the captured people. But after a few days, all the torture has been tried without any results.
Hearing this, Rogge immediately set off to the large dungeon where several killers were being held. The fat man knew that these killers must have undergone special training and were very capable of torture. But no matter how strong their will is, in front of Rogge, a necromancer who is good at indulging souls, they can't keep the secrets in their hearts.
The dungeon is located not far from the Grand Duke's Palace, and has always been used by the Principality to hold the most dangerous felons, so the main body of the cell is hidden deep underground.
The warden received the news that Rogge was going to interrogate several prisoners in person, and immediately hurriedly gave the three killers a simple treatment and fed them some spirits to lift their spirits, so that Master Rogge would not accidentally kill the prisoners by overweight.
Therefore, when Rogge walked into the dim and damp torture chamber, the three captured killers, two women and one man, who hung on the wall, somewhat regained their appearance. Seeing Rogge come in, their cloudy eyes only subconsciously rolled a few times.
Rog walked back and forth in front of the three of them several times, and finally stopped in front of the male prisoner, placing his hand on his chest. The male prisoner's face immediately distorted, as if he had seen the most terrifying thing in his life, and screamed desperately. But despite all his might, he couldn't make a sound in his throat!
Although the fat warden standing behind Rogge was accustomed to all kinds of cruel scenes, the strange scene in front of him still made his face pale and his forehead covered with fine sweat.
The male prisoner struggled for a while, then suddenly convulsed and stopped moving.
Rog frowned slightly, shook his head, and came to the female killer again, his hand gently pressing her chest.
To Rogge's surprise, the female killer struggled only a few times before her head hung limply. Roger thought for a moment, reached out and ruffled her loose hair, and looked at her face. He tore the tattered clothes of the two female killers with a few more clicks, looked at their bodies, and walked out without saying a word.
"Lord Rogge, are you done with the trial?" asked the warden cautiously, hurriedly following behind Rogge.
"Their physical strength is so poor that there is no need for another trial. Rogge said lightly, "Anyone who has them, I will see their heads before they fall." The dungeons are full of important prisoners, and since they can't control their lower bodies, I'll help them. You know, only the dead are the most self-disciplined. ”
Rogge suddenly stopped, stared at the warden, and said slowly: "These two girls are good-looking, how many times have you done it?"
The warden was so frightened that he almost sat down on the ground, and said with a crying voice: "Lord Rogge, I just want to sit in this seat until I retire, in the name of the goddess Odreh, I have not moved a finger of these two prisoners!"
Rogge stared at him for a long time, then smiled and patted him on the shoulder, and said, "Okay, don't be afraid." Do your best in the future, and I can guarantee that you will have a rich and happy old age. ”
After leaving the dungeon, Rogge pondered all the way and returned to the Eye of Wisdom.
The killers apparently came from a tight, large organization. The most critical parts of their memories have been cursed with great skill. Even though Rogge himself is a master of dark and necromantic curses, and tries to be as careful as possible, he still inevitably triggers the curse. The second female prisoner was too poor to even withstand Rogge's search magic, and the curse died before it could be triggered.
These killers didn't know much, but Rogge only knew from the part of the assassination plan that he had spied on, and he knew almost everything about the arrangement of the Holy Child by the Eye of Wisdom, and even had a way to crack the defensive magic array placed on the door. It can be seen from this that the Eye of Wisdom already has the internal annihilation of the enemy, and the status is not low.
"Lord Rogge!"
Rogge replied nonchalantly as he mentally analyzed the composition of the curse.
"Lord Rogge!" the man called out again, pulling Rogge.
Rogge looked back and saw that the carriage had entered the main hall of the Eye of Wisdom. Saint Mora had already sat down beside him at some point.
Originally, the fat man's vigilance could never be so low, but by instinct, he knew that Mora had no hostility towards him. Maybe it's because of the goddess Audreych, maybe it's because of that overnight fate, maybe it's something else. Rog was now completely unsuspecting of Mora, so she was able to sit beside him silently.
"Mora, you've come just in time. All I know now is that the killers came from an organization to be reckoned with, and that this assassination may have been a tentative operation. In a moment, you can pick two random baby girls, one on the altar and one in the secret room. Every week, we'll get two more baby girls......"
Before Rog could finish speaking, Mora suddenly fell on his face!
Her little mouth was almost close to Rogge's ear, and her voice was already extremely low: "Lord Rogge! Goddess...... It's just coming!"
Rog was shocked and stared at Mora. Mora nodded slowly.
Rogge's joy is not trivial!
Although he was afraid of Odrech very much, she had always been on his side all along. Not to mention the level of her godhead and the size of her godhead, just having a godhead is enough to reverse the situation in the entire north!
Although there are many worshipped gods in this world, apart from the supreme god of the Cult of the Illuminati, only Rog knows that the great elf of war Shiloh has shown miracles. The Empire's once-glorious goddess of ice and snow has been silent for decades, and the goddess of nature worshipped in the City of Nighttime has not heard of any famous miracles that have been displayed recently.
And the goddess Odrech not only performed miracles frequently, but now even descended directly on Dresden! What does this mean? Rogge was already a little excited and couldn't think about it.
As for the goddess's divine might, as far as he had seen recently, he had easily gouged out one eye of the mysterious three-headed dragon Istalaze!
"Quick! take me to the goddess!" Rogge's voice trembled.
The goddess has just arrived, although it is on a baby, but where there is a preconceived idea, this first few days of sycophants are crucial. Rog has been determined to pull the goddess Odreh into the water at all costs and drag her chariot onto his chariot.
Mora seemed to know what Rog was thinking, and smiled softly, "The goddess has sent down an oracle to allow no one to enter her room except me. Lord Rogge, I think you'd better not disobey the Goddess's oracle, or you'll ......"
Rogge nodded helplessly.
Mora suddenly approached Rogge again, and whispered with a smile: "Lord Rogge, with your lustful surname, if you have a lustful heart for the goddess, it will be a great disrespect......!
The fat man snorted twice, trying to hide the embarrassment. It's just that his laughter is dry, and his heart is empty, which is really obvious when he hears it.
Rogge suddenly remembered something and whispered to Mora, "No one else knows about the arrival of the goddess, right?"
"The Goddess only asked me to inform you. ”
Rogge was a little flattered, and said, "The goddess has descended into the body of the Holy Child, does she need protection?"
Mora smiled and said, "The goddess is omnipotent. If anyone dares to offend the goddess, then his fate must be very bad. ”
Rogge nodded and said in a low voice, "Where the real Holy Child is, you must not let Androni know." If she asks, you can point to a baby girl to her. If she wants to snatch the baby girl away, you can resist a little and let her snatch it. ”
Mora was startled and whispered, "Although Miss Androni is a strong martial artist, if she offends the goddess, it is not a trivial matter......!" Does she ...... Just like you?"
Looking at Mora's flushed cheeks and her small mouth open in surprise, Rogge was shocked by her ice and snow cleverness, and didn't know what to say, or could only laugh a few times.
The carriage bypassed the magnificent main hall and headed for the complex behind the hall.
No one noticed that there were two shiny boots swinging on the roof of the main hall. The heroic swordsman stretched his waist and said to himself with a low smile: "Dead fat man, you dare to play tricks behind my back!
As a saint with the eye of wisdom, Mora herself occupies a beautiful small building behind the main hall, which is isolated from the hustle and bustle of the outside world by a high tree wall.
The interior of the building is exquisitely decorated and luxurious, and most of the decorations are mainly religious themes, which fully fits the identity of the Mora saintess.
In Mora's large bedroom, a tiny baby girl is rolling in bed. It seems that this little baby girl is not yet old, with blonde hair and dark blue eyes, and she is extremely beautiful.
But her every move was full of weirdness.
As soon as one of her white and tender little hands was propped up on the bed, her little body would fly off the bed like lightning. But every now and then, a long, crystal-like finger would appear, and with a touch on her forehead, the baby girl would roll in the air a dozen times, and then fall back to the bed.
The little baby girl's blue eyes burned with rage, she turned over, her little hands and legs on the bed a little, and threw herself at the hateful black-haired silver-eyed woman standing in the void in front of the bed!
This time, Feng Yue seemed to sense something, and suddenly disappeared into the void.
The little baby girl obviously couldn't control her body yet, so she suddenly jumped into the air and rushed straight towards Androni, who quietly pushed the door in!
Androni subconsciously grabbed the baby girl in her hand, and when she saw that it was a very beautiful little guy with blonde hair and blue eyes, she couldn't help but smile, and wanted to kiss the little baby girl's tender little face.
The little baby girl struggled as she screamed as if she were calling for someone. Androni looked around, and in the whole room, only she and the little baby girl, there was no second person at all.
The baby girl screamed for a long time and did not respond, and her little face was red in a hurry. Suddenly, she opened her mouth, and a cloud of lightning erupted from her toothless little mouth!
Androni was startled, but her martial arts skills were amazing, and she dodged the lightning with a slight side of her head. Looking at the struggling little baby girl, she couldn't help the smugness in her heart, and said with a smile: "Xiao Fengyue, I will raise you slowly." Hmph, I'm not afraid that you won't obey when the time comes!"
The little baby girl was stunned, and suddenly laughed out loud.
The temperature in the room suddenly dropped sharply, and in an instant, early autumn had become winter!
