Chapter 160 Territory

When Palin turned around, Richard was surprised to see that he had a very young face! Yes, he must have been a young man, no more than thirty years old. But his hair and rickety body make his back no different from that of an old man in his sixties. Richard looked at Palin's back again, but smelled a real smell of aging from him. He glanced at Quicksand, who nodded slightly, confirming Richard's guess. Perrin's body is indeed aging, but he has a young soul.

Judging from the breath, Perrin is a low-level magician, only about six or seven levels.

The Duke gently closed the door for Perrin, then took Richard and Quicksand to a nearby lounge and sat down, personally prepared a pot of strong black tea for them, and then said with a little bitterness: "Perrin is my third son......"

Richard was slightly surprised, Duke Blue Wolf is only forty-six years old this year, so Perrin is in his early thirties at most.

The Duke paused for a long time, seemingly struggling to choose his words, before he said, "Perrin's mother, the woman I love the most, died in childbirth when she gave birth to him. And Palin has shown an incomparable genius from an early age, not the kind of genius that is unique in a million, but far above this standard, a genius that I have never seen in my life. What you have just seen is the result of his research over the years, which is said to be the path to the secret of the final level of the magic circle, and Perrin is confident that he has found the key to open that door. ”

So Richard was calm on the surface, but his heart was shaken again. Although the magic system of the Faro plane is at least a whole level lower than that of Noland, the similarity of the system structure is very high, so if it continues to develop in this direction, the ultimate secret of the so-called magic array is the magic pattern construction, or something with the same effect, no matter what name it is.

"Palin just turned 20 this year. The Duke said calmly.

"Is it a curse?" asked Quicksand, tentatively.

"Yes, I suspect it is a curse from Sinai, the god of time, but I can't confirm it. At the age of fifteen, Perrin publicly expressed his views on the origin of the plane. He believed that the system of the Pharotic plane was imperfect, and therefore not the perfect supreme plane as the gods claimed. In those heterotopes that we consider to be savage, barren, and primitive, there must be a system of power far superior to that of Faro. And the Faroese gods are not the most powerful gods, in the depths of the plane, there are likely to be powerful gods whose power surpasses the Farro gods. ”

Like Essien, this is a very bold guess, but it shows genius because it is close to the truth. And Perrin was only fifteen years old then!

Richard was silent. From history, we can know that those who are one step ahead of the times will be great men, but if they are two steps ahead, they will inevitably become pioneers of sacrifice. Especially the last sentence, about the positioning of the gods, is almost close to blasphemy.

Sure enough, the duke's voice turned bitter, and he said, "Shortly after that shocking remark, Perrin suddenly aged ten times faster for some reason! Now five years have passed, and Perrin is just twenty years old, but his body is already an old man who is nearly seventy years old. I know that many people are secretly saying that it was because Palin said those rebellious words that angered the gods, and the gods punished him. And since then, he has been afraid of the sun and the natural wind, and only in the depths of this mountain, after isolating the divine power with the magic array and the power of the ancestors, can he not be tormented by the curse of aging. Now, Perrin's only wish is to complete the foundation of magical mathematics before death knocks on the door. ”

"Is that the weight?" asked Richard, vaguely.

"Yes. Palin ...... I owe so much to his mom and I owe him so much. ”

Richard turned to quicksand and asked, "Is there a way?"

Quicksand nodded and said, "The level of the aging curse on Perrin's body is very high, and most of it is a curse directly descended by a god. In fact, this curse does not affect the flow of time, but catalyzes the body's functions to achieve the effect of aging. It is possible for all the gods to rain down the curse of aging as a divine punishment, and of course, the curse of Sinai, the god of time, is definitely more effective. At the moment, my magic level is not high enough to directly lift the Aging Curse on Perrin, but as long as I build an altar and successfully sacrifice to the Dragon of Eternity and Time, and receive the Divine Grace of the Torrent of Life, I can override the Aging Curse. However, Perrin has been under a curse for five years, and the decay of his bodily functions will require other divine graces to undo it. ”

Subsequently, quicksand explained the effect of the torrent of life. Finally, he concluded: "So, the altar and the sacrifice, are the key to saving Palin. ”

The Duke's eyes lit up for the first time, and in the past five years, he had not done nothing, on the contrary, he had searched all the ways except to plead to the divine graces, including looking through the ancient records of the library, and sending messengers to distant lands in search of herbs, magical beasts, magical items, and anything else that could prolong life.

For the first time, he felt that hope was within reach.

He carefully inquired about the level of the sacrifice required, and when he learned that the sacrifice required by the Torrent of Life Divine Grace had to be at least the level of the Great Demon or the Great Devil's strength, his face showed only a slight embarrassment, and then it was replaced by determination and fortitude.

The Great Demon or the Great Devil all have a power that surpasses the ordinary Sanctuary of Norland, and the powerful even have a level 20 power. It was a formidable enemy for Duke Blue Wolf to provoke, but he did not hesitate.

"Where is the altar going to be built?" asked the duke.

"In my territory, it's easier to keep secrets. Richard had thought about this question and answered it quickly.

"Okay! I'll do my best to support you. What do you need, supplies, gold, or troops?" the Duke asked. This can already be said to be an expression of alliance.

Richard pondered what he needed most at the moment. He would not open his mouth, because now that he and the Duke had reached a preliminary agreement, the relationship between the two sides was still very fragile, fragile to the point that perhaps a misunderstanding would break down.

After a moment, Richard said, "Thank you, Lord Duke, for your kindness. I do need help right now, mainly in three areas. One is that I need a stable trading channel where I can trade food, weapons, slaves, and magical materials. Secondly, I need a list, which should consist of two parts, one of which is your true friend and foe. The other part is the strong ones I need to pay attention to, including the legendary powerhouses, the more detailed the information, the better. Finally, and probably the most important request, I need a lot of magic materials in order to build the altar. I will pay the price for all the supplies I receive from you, and the only hope is that I will be able to guarantee the supply. ”

The Duke glanced at Richard deeply, smiled faintly, and said, "I don't want money and troops, very ambitious little guy." ”

Richard was slightly startled, but his face remained calm.
