Chapter 571: Do You Like Red Bean Cakes?
Merlin and Sophia were the first to run to the castle lord's mansion at the top of the mountain, and the two of them were the strongest among the others, so they walked in front, and Sophia also deliberately pulled Nene who was left behind all the way.
The three women ran outside the city lord's mansion, and saw Char sitting in front of the collapsed palace from a distance, holding Saint Laurent Garros in her arms, mourning and weeping.
Merlin and Sophia glanced at each other, but they didn't immediately step forward, but their eyes showed a faint gloom.
Nene had already run as fast as he could, past Thor Hannigan, who was standing there slightly distracted. She ran to Char's face, looking at Saint Laurent Garros who was already silent in Char's arms, Nene then stopped, and looked at the tears on Char's face, she slowly knelt down on her knees, knelt in front of Saint Laurent Garros, and then stretched out a hand to help Char wipe the tears on her face.
"She's dead. Char's voice was hoarse, and he glanced at Nene, his eyes were blank, and there was a blankness in his voice: "She's dead." β
"Hmm. Nene endured his grief and whispered, "Lord Saint Laurent...... It's gone, you, don't be too sad. β
"She's dead. Char Buddha couldn't hear Nen's comfort, but whispered, "She's just dead, I'...... I had only seen her twice, and the second time I saw her, she was already dead. β
There was a sour feeling in my heart, and I couldn't help but go up and gently hug Char, and said in the softest voice as much as possible: "My lord has gone, Char, you ......"
"She's dead, dead. ...... dead" Char hugged the body of Saint Laurent Garros in his arms: "Do you know, she is my mother, do you know it, I haven't had time to call her yet......! I should have called her a long time ago! But I didn't say it...... I, I ......"
Nene didn't speak, just gently hugged Char, let the man's head rest on his arms, let his tears wet his clothes, and gently caressed the palm of his head.
Merlin seemed to want to step forward, but before she could take a step, Aunt Sophia grabbed her by the sleeve.
Merlin turned back. He raised his eyebrows and looked at Aunt Sophia.
"Don't go over. Aunt Sophia smiled bitterly in a low voice: "Let that child cry for a while." β
Merlin hesitated, and Aunt Sophia continued, "Didn't you hear what he said just now...... Saint Laurent Garros was his mother. After a pause, Aunt Sophia smiled bitterly: "This matter." You don't know, do you?"
Merlin shook his head: "I don't know. I only know that he is from the Holy City, and this kid's black hair is one of the seeds of experience sent by the Holy City at first glance, but the old drunkard was originally from the Holy City, so I never thought much about it. β
"Alas. I don't know. Aunt Sophia sighed,
Merlin frowned and glanced at Thor Hannigan, "I guess, he didn't know either." β
Aunt Sophia thought for a moment. Suddenly whispered: "Pulling that kid for a while, I'm worried that he will go crazy...... If he is desperate for Thor. That...... If Thor tries to kill him, none of us can stop him. β
Merlin's face darkened. She lost the battle with Thor so completely, and later saw Thor Hannigan and St Laurent Garros fight, which shattered all the pride of the genius witch and herself.
Aslan and Hesting finally arrived, and the rest of the people just stood in the distance, only Hesting, watching Char cry bitterly there, slowly walked towards Merlin and Aunt Sophia.
"Excuse me, the winner has already been decided?" Hasting's tone was still cold.
"The living won, the dead lose. Merlin said lightly: "That kid, he is actually the son of Saint Laurent, hum...... You're a disciple of an old drunkard, and you don't know it?"
"When the teacher adopted him, I was already gone. Hestine shook his head.
After hesitating for a moment, Hesting said lightly: "I'll go see him." β
Saying that, regardless of Sophia's eyes, Hesting walked up to Char and whispered, "Char." β
Seeing that Char didn't speak, but just continued to cry bitterly, Hesting frowned, reached out and patted Nene on the shoulder, asking her to get out of the way a little, and then directly grabbed Char's neck and dragged him up.
Char was defenseless, and was suddenly pulled away by Hesting, and immediately shouted angrily: "What are you doing!"
"The dead are gone, what's the use of you crying again. Hesting deliberately said in a very cold tone: "It's a joke to cry like this!" I think Saint Laurent Garros is such a master, the old enemy fought a battle, and she was afraid that she would have seen it a long time ago, but you are here to be a child, which makes people look down on!"
"What did you say!"
Char jumped up and shouted angrily, "Do you know that she is ......"
"She's your mother. Hasting said coldly: "I know now, since she is dead, do you just watch her body exposed here?"
Char looked at Hasting in a daze.
Hesting said coldly: "You are angry, you are angry, I understand it very well...... Of course I know your pain now, because I have experienced this pain firsthand! You will at least have a chance to see her for the last time, you will at least have a chance to say a few words to her before she dies, and you will at least have a chance to bury her with your own hands!"
As he spoke, a trace of pain flashed in his eyes, and he lowered his voice, and his tone was a little calmer: "Trust me, I can understand your feelings...... I've experienced it. I used to hide there and listen to the killing of my whole family, but I didn't dare say a word, I used to hide like a dog, I didn't have a chance to say the last word to my parents, I didn't even have a chance to bury them with my own hands. β
Xia Ya finally calmed down, he stood firm, took a few deep breaths hard, glanced at Hesting, hesitated, and said in a low voice: "...... Thank you!"
As he spoke, he bent down and hugged Saint Laurent Garros sideways, and Nene immediately helped him pick up the fire fork on the ground, and whispered, "I'll help you." β
Char glanced at Nene with tears on her face. Smiled miserably: "Okay." β
"Well, just bury it behind the altar, it's quiet. β
Nene hesitated...... She thought Char would refuse or object.
ββ¦β¦ It's good. Char actually nodded, and he suddenly became so calm. The calm is a little incredible, and the calm is a little weird: "It's quite quiet there...... This holy city is finished anyway, she has been guarding this place when she is alive, and after she dies, she probably wants to live here forever and watch this place. β
After a pause, he shook his head: "Unfortunately, I don't know where my father is buried, but ...... This should be a short distance from this mountain. If she lived, she must be willing to stay in this place. β
Char said, stepping over to Thor Hannigan's side. The turtle suddenly stopped.
The surrounding Merlin, Aunt Sophia, and Hesting immediately became nervous.
Nene's face was pale, but he was still standing tightly with Char, holding the fire fork tightly in his hand.
Solhannigan looked at Char. Said slowly: "What? If you want to take revenge......
"I know I'm no match for you. Char interrupted Solhannigan in a strange tone, and then his tone became even stranger: "I also know that she was not actually killed by you...... She had been poisoned before, in order to regain her strength. Using the guardian magic array here, it was probably a way I didn't know how to regain my strength. But it took her life - that is, she lost to you. But you didn't kill it yourself. β
"What do you want to say?" said Solhannigan.
"What I'm trying to say is, I'll seek revenge on you. Char's tone was still so calm, and he looked into the eyes of the Odin God Emperor: "Although she said before she died, it was not you who killed her...... But no matter what, she died because of you after all, and if you hadn't killed her, she wouldn't have had to pay her life to go back to the magic array. So...... Although you didn't kill her with your own hands, her death was because of you after all. β
"I said, if you want revenge, I ......"
Char interrupted Solhannigan's words again, and he still looked at Solhannigan's eyes so calmly: "I also know that it was actually she who made trouble for you first, and it was also her who went to Odin, and this grudge can be regarded as something she took the initiative to provoke...... It's okay for you to come to the door now...... Even, if it were me, I might have done more ruthless and excessive than you. But...... I still can't forgive you. Although I don't think you've actually done anything wrong, though...... You're still my wife's father. β
"You don't have to worry about that. Thor Hannigan said lightly.
"yes, so I'm not going to worry about that. Char's tone seemed to be very sincere: "So, I decided to take revenge on you because of one thing: she is my mother." That's all there is to it. Are you right?"
"It's enough. Thor also looked Char's eyes: "So what?"
"So...... Can you please wait here for me for a while?" Char's tone was very serious, very sincere, and there was a taste of absurdity, as if he was not talking to an enemy, but calmly discussing something: "I'm going to bury her now, can you wait for me here for a while?"
After a pause, he looked at Thor: "I know, anyway, you are not His Majesty the Odin God Emperor now, you should also have a lot of time, if you have nothing to do to leave in a hurry, please wait for me for a while." I'll be back in a moment, okay?"
ββ¦β¦ OK. Solhannigan smiled - he didn't understand what this guy meant, but for the proud Solhannigan, he didn't care about any of that, and he didn't have to care about it.
"Thank you, I won't keep you waiting. Char was actually very polite.
He was about to walk towards the back of the palace with Saint Laurent Garros in his arms, when Merlin and Sophia hurriedly followed, and Merlin whispered, "Char, you ......"
"I'm fine. Char glanced back at Merlin, and then at Aunt Sophia: "I'll bury her first." β
"What do you mean by what you said to Thor, you want revenge?!" Merlin whispered, "You ......"
"I'm no match for him, I know. Char shrugged.
"Then you ......"
Char stopped talking, but directly hugged Saint Laurent Garros and flew away.
Walk through the already empty castle lord's mansion and make your way up the mountain. Came to the altar.
Char found an open space behind the altar, then dug a tomb with a fire fork, lowered the body of Saint Laurent Garros, and buried the tomb with his own hands.
throughout the process. He didn't say a word, didn't say a word, didn't let others interfere, and even Nene was pulled aside by him.
When Char had done all this, he cut a piece of stone from the wall of the palace at the altar next to him, cut it into a rectangle with a fire fork, and inserted it in front of the tomb.
Char hesitated. As if thinking about something, he finally scooped up the fire fork and carved the words on the tombstone.
"The last guardian of the Holy City is buried here, may she rest in peace. β
Underneath is a line of small print: "Your son, Char Thundering"
That's all it takes. Xia Ya Buddha let out a long breath, and his face was full of dust, sweat, tears, and bloodstains, all of which were mixed together. He looked at Merlin and hesitated, "Can you please ......?"
Merlin sighed, "Okay. I'll set up a magic array here so that her rest won't be disturbed, but it will take some time and materials to set up the formation. β
"I think. This holy city should be able to find the magic materials it needs. Nechi had the courage to speak: "There should be a treasury in the palace of the city lord's mansion......"
Merlin looked at Char, "What about you? What are you going to do with Thor right away?"
"Don't worry, I'm not going to do anything stupid. β
Char hesitated. He groaned, and then he looked at a few people. Finally, his eyes fell on Nene and he smiled bitterly, "I'm sorry, I have to leave for some time." β
Nene suddenly changed color, and she immediately went up and grabbed Char's arm: "What did you say?!What do you mean by that?!"
"I said, I'm going to leave a little bit. Char's tone was very calm: "Please do me a favor, stay here, and arrange the magic array here with Lord Merlin, is it okay?"
Nene became more and more anxious: "You ...... You...... What the hell are you going to do? Don't do stupid things, he's so powerful, you don't ......."
"Of course I wouldn't do anything stupid. Char said slowly: "Of course I know how powerful he is, even if it is ten of them tied together, it is far from his opponent." So, I didn't plan to fight with him right now. β
"Char. Aunt Sophia shouted in a deep voice, "What the hell are you going to do!"
"Do what I need to do. Char looked at Aunt Sophia and said in a respectful tone: "I know, I can trust you, and Lord Merlin, so her tomb is ......"
"You're really not going to tell us what you want to do?" Aunt Sophia squinted.
Char closed his mouth.
Then he smiled lightly, bowed deeply to the three women in front of him, and finally hugged Nene gently: "I have my own plans...... You set up the magic array here, and then, go home, go back to the north, and wait for me in peace, okay?"
Nene wept: "You...... Char, you bastard, don't scare me, you tell me, what the hell do you want to do?!"
Char stopped talking, gently wiped the tears on Nene's face, turned around and left!
He walked so fast that Nene screamed and flew after him, and Sophia and Merlin glanced at each other and chased after him.
Char ran back to the palace and walked to Thor's side, and then he whispered, "Let's get out of here...... You have a way to get rid of the people here, just the two of us leaving, you can do it, right? β
Solhannigan glanced at Char, a little confused, but nodded after all.
When Nene and Merlin Sophia chased after them from behind, they saw Char and Sol standing together and talking in a low voice, and then Char raised his head and smiled at the three women......
Solhannigan's palm pressed against Char's body, and the two of them suddenly disappeared from the spot!
"It's not teleportation!" Merlin immediately changed color and said, "Bastard! Thor just broke through the space!Where did they run to?!Char, that bastard boy, what the hell is he going to do!!"
As she spoke, she suddenly shouted at Hesting, "You just stood like this, why didn't you stop him just now?!"
Hesting met Merlin's gaze: "Why stop it?"
"You?!" Merlin said angrily, "Why don't you stop it?!"
"If he has his own plans, why stop him. Hesting shook his head: "This guy is a bit reckless at times. But look at the way he just looked...... Obviously, he has calmed down, and the decisions he makes after calming down generally won't let him suffer too much. And...... I can relate to his mood right now. β
Merlin was speechless.
Nene, however, suddenly weakened, sat on the ground and cried bitterly...... When Char opened his eyes. Finding himself and Thor Hannigan already standing in a jungle, the lush and tall woods around them, it was obvious that they were standing somewhere in the middle of the forest of the Chaos Realm.
He took a deep breath and felt a dull pain all over his body.
Obviously, this kind of ability to break through the space and directly cross the domain is not something that anyone can bearβespecially through the cracks in the space, the painful feeling of tearing. If it weren't for the power of Thor Hannigan next to him to protect him, I am afraid that he would have been torn to pieces by the turbulence in the spatial rift.
(The gap between the realms is so far away.) οΌ
Char smiled bitterly in her heart.
It must be a long way from the Holy City, he jumped easily. When I crossed the height of the woods, I saw that the high mountain in the Holy City was indeed far away.
"You can rest assured. Solhannigan waited for Char to land and said, "They haven't reached the realm, so it's impossible to break through the distance of the space and chase them directly...... Of the few people left, only Merlin could barely do it, but her realm was only a small yuan realm. It's impossible to catch up with my power, so it won't be possible to capture our location. β
After a pause, Solhannigan stared into Char's eyes: "If you have anything to say, you can say it now." β
Char laughed - he actually laughed!
He looked into the eyes of the Odin God-Emperor. He said a word in a very resolute and serious tone.
"I think, please teach me. Teach me strength, teach me how to break through where I am now. Teach me how to be stronger, teach me, how to catch up with you!"
Thor was a little surprised: "...... Just like a teacher and a disciple?"
"Just like a teacher and a disciple!" Char nodded resolutely.
ββ¦β¦ Why?"
"Why not?" Char asked rhetorically, "I have heard of the grudge between you and Aunt Sophia, didn't you also receive the teachings of Aunt Sophia's father back then, and finally challenged him, and then Aunt Sophia's father also died at your hands? β
"I mean, why should I teach you. Thor squinted.
"Because, don't you want to pursue a higher realm? don't you always want to find an opponent that satisfies you?" Char seemed to be laughing, "Saint Laurent Garros is the closest to you, but she's dead now." Of the rest of the people, only Merlin has surpassed the realm of the strong, but you yourself have said that she is too extreme and has no potential to reach your realm. β
As he spoke, he pointed to his nose: "But I'm different, I'm young, I'm only in my twenties now, young means potential, and ...... Because of my hatred for you, I will work hard to train myself, and I will force myself to keep moving forward, and finally surpass you, defeat you, and kill you!" After a pause, he looked into Solhannigan's eyes defiantly: "Where do you go to find a second potential opponent like me?"
Even, he said even more explicitly: "You have told me all your true meaning and mysteries about strength, so that I can learn and improve while understanding you to the greatest extent! Understand everything about you, your strengths, your weaknesses, your strengths, your habits...... Eventually, I'm going to be a very, very tough opponent for you! an opponent who has grown up to be quite strong and knows all your strengths and weaknesses β isn't it difficult for someone like you to be more challenging?"
Thor Hannigan smiled - he kept staring into Char's eyes and then made sure that the kid wasn't crazy or talking crazy.
He's serious!
"Don't you refuse?" Char sighed, "Then I'll assume that you agree." β
Thor was still smiling.
"Actually...... You don't have to laugh so early. Char said lightly: "I'm not a decent gentleman, my whole intention is to kill you...... And to kill you by any means necessary!So...... I'm going to try to improve my game, but ...... When we are together, you have to be careful when you eat and sleep, maybe I will always look for opportunities, maybe you drink a sip of wine that is highly poisonous to deal with the strong...... I'm not a good guy, I'm just a vile villain. β
Saulhannigan sneered.
"It's challenging. Char took a deep breath, "Then let's get out of here now...... Shall I ask you for advice now?"
The two men turned and walked west towards the woods, and Thor finally spoke, "What do you want to ask?"
"What level of power can kill you?"
Solhannigan glanced at Char: "You can't understand the realm yet. β
"Is it the realm of gods?" Char asked, "Above the Great Yuan is the realm of gods, can the power of the realm of gods kill you?"
ββ¦β¦ Maybe. β
Char suddenly remembered something: "By the way, after a whole day, aren't you hungry?
Thor seemed very surprised by Char's attitude: "You are really the strangest guy I have ever met. β
"No matter how good you are, you always have to eat and. Char pouted: "Do you like red bean cakes?"
His tone was meaningful: "I know a guy who likes to eat red bean cakes. β
