Chapter 5: True Confession of the Lord
"Occam, why are you so stupid, I warned you at the time, Lady Shirley is just trying to replace you ...... Damn me, you knocked me out and came to .......
Now, I don't know what Lady Shirley was trying to do, but I think it should be true that she said you would die in seven days, and I remember her expression, and her eyes were so determined.
Occam, are you going to die? Lady Shirley said that what you got is a token of the evil god, I don't believe it, but I don't think you can destroy the token, and you can't live! ”
There are a lot of implications in Nicole's words.
Lady Shirley said that what she got from the old priest was a token of the evil god, Doris didn't believe it, but said that she would die in seven days, which should be referring to the so-called God's trial, but why was Lady Shirley sure that she was dead, after all, even the Templar Knight only said that she had little hope of living.
But Doris could sense that the Templars wanted her to survive, and even Valentine seemed to think that if she did, her situation would be turned upside down.
Nicole said vaguely, it should be the Templar who was afraid of spying on her, but she knew about the existence of the Templar and dared to come to see her, how did Nicole do it?
"I know, you go quickly, in the future, take care."
Listening to Doris's calm reply across the wall, Nicole was a little strange, but she thought of how timid Doris was on weekdays, and she was willing to die for Occam.
Is love really so great?
But why does the innocent and innocent Doris sister fall in love with Occam?
Even if one of the Sea Clan had to die, it shouldn't be Doris.
In fact, Nicole guessed that Mrs. Shirley was speaking to her at the beginning, after all, she and Occam were the same age and the same race, even if there was an accident, it would be easy to deal with it.
Of course, perhaps for Lady Shirley, anyone could do it, as long as the person who died was not her son.
Who knew that Doris, who was a fish-man, would be so impulsive, and when she heard that she didn't plan to replace Occam and advised her not to be impulsive, she drank the potion and rushed to the temple.
"Nicole, let's go, let's go!"
A Templar rushed through the corals, the same one who had taken care of Doris when she was attacked by green algae, and he took Nicole's arm and walked out, Nicole was unwilling, but she resisted the trained Templar.
"Wait, Harperd, wait, I'll say the last word, the last word, to Ocam."
Nicole threw herself against the wall, "Don't die, don't die if you live, even if you die, I won't avenge you!" You can only live on your own and get justice for yourself! ”
"Hurry up, who can she seek revenge, Lady Valentine?"
Listening to the sound outside, Doris sat down against the wall, "Thank you, thank you for letting me see Nicole for the last time." ”
"Harperd likes Nicole, I'm good friends with him, and I hope you don't betray him." There was a sullen sound outside the door, it was the Templar Knights guarding Doris.
"Thank you."
Doris once again flipped through the memories of the original owner and confirmed that she really had a good relationship with Nicole, and Nicole usually took care of the timid Doris.
The situation at that time was that Nicole and Doris accidentally saw that Lady Shirley was going to die in place of Occam, but Nicole persuaded Doris not to hear, but she was knocked unconscious by Doris, and finally Doris stupidly drank the potion to find Occam.
When Doris arrived at the temple, the potion hadn't worked, otherwise Occam wouldn't have easily believed Doris's words, after all, it was another him standing in front of Occam.
Is it even this in Mrs. Shirley's calculations?
It seems that she underestimated this lady before.
However, where did Lady Shirley get such a miraculous potion, a sex change potion, could it be that the sea witch made it?
It's not a fairy tale.
Nicole also discovered that Lady Shirley is not simple, not because Madame Shirley is not smart, but because Nicole is smart.
is obviously an ordinary fish-people, but Nicole has been well-behaved and sensible since she was a child.
So did Lady Shirley adopt Doris and Nicole just because they were also Fish-Man Sea Clan?
Doris hadn't forgotten that Nicole had come to see her, and that was what Lady Shirley meant.
Tell her that if she doesn't destroy the shell, she will die in seven days, no, Nicole said, Lady Shirley confirmed that she will die in seven days, why?
Also, does Lady Shirley know about the gray robe, in the memory of the original owner, no one knows, Occam doesn't know, and the smart Nicole doesn't know, but what about Mrs. Shirley?
What does this seven days mean to her?
If Mrs. Shirley knew, how did she know.
Hey, there seems to be a person next door in the afternoon, I don't know how much he knows.
At this moment, Doris focused all his energy on the sudden appearance of Nicole, but ignored the Templar Harperd, why did he say that if Doris wanted revenge, it was Valentine Priest who was looking for it?
Was it only because Valentine asked for a blood sacrifice that Ockam died?
Or is it that Priest Valentine doesn't want to let Doris go, and if Doris dies, she will die early at the hands of Valentine, instead of gambling on her life in seven days.
The next day, Doris went out for breakfast and inevitably ran into Clive.
Clive didn't expect that the Sea Clan, who had entered the God's Trial with him seven days later, would be so cute.
His fluttering eyes made Clive subconsciously think of himself when he left Galailta and returned to the family, he was also so hesitant and helpless, carefully observing this strange place, in vain to get a sense of security.
"Hey, boy, what's your name?"
Brat? Doris hooked the corners of her mouth, but she was not a kid, "I'm Occam, what's your name?" ”
There was no answer from the other side, and Doris wondered.
I don't know how deep this bottom of the sea is, although there is no skylight, but the blue light is enough to illuminate all places, but compared to when she just woke up, it is a lot darker, to be honest, if it is not for the inheritance of the original owner's memory, Doris really can't judge when it is time to rest, when is "dawn".
Just when Doris thought the other party would not answer, a faint voice came, "Clive." ”
Doris laughed, reluctantly.
"What are you laughing at, I'm just a little hesitant, if it weren't for the fact that you're either dead or gray robed in seven days, I wouldn't bother to pay attention to you?"
"Yes, thank you for your willingness to see that I might die."
Listening to the sound of laughter on the other side, for some reason, Clive, who had always been in a heavy mood, actually felt very good, it must have been too hard to run around for the gray robe in the past few days.
It's not because seeing each other is like seeing his struggling self as a teenager, giving him the illusion that he seems to have redeemed him as if he had helped his once weak self.
"Actually, you also have hope, I heard that the trial of the gods is actually more focused on wisdom, but it is too closed to go to the sea, and there is not even an academy, so people will think that the stronger the better. In fact, the real top people in "Gray Robe" are all wise men. Of course, I don't deny that it's better to have both brains and strength. ”
After all, the strong still have a chance to survive if they fail, and the weak have to accept their fate.
"Under what circumstances, like me, will never survive after seven days?"
Doris's voice sounded cold, as if it wasn't talking about her own life, Clive was a little strange, is there really anyone in this world who is not afraid of death?
"How is it possible, even if you are bad, there are lucky, if the goddess of luck looks at you, no matter how bad you are, it is possible to put on a gray robe, at least such a kid, I know one, although he also hates it, but he is quite lucky."
Sometimes Clive would envy that kid, obviously in the same situation, how could he be so optimistic, so lucky, is it because his mother is still alive?
"Are you not confident, in fact, this God's trial is fair to everyone, lucky to meet ......" Clive covered his mouth, this is a secret that only nobles know, he can't say it, otherwise he will be deprived of his noble status.
And the secret of "Gray Robe" cannot be told to ordinary people, otherwise, this ordinary person will lose his qualification to enter the world of gray robes.
Even if the Giles family is a top nobleman in Shanghai, they can only pinch the bottom line and give Clive a little hint.
For example, if you are lucky enough to meet a great god, hugging your thighs is always the most standard posture for soaring into the sky.
"Hey, why hasn't your gray robe been opened yet, and you're going to enter the God's Trial in six days?"
Doris looked at the gray-robed shell in her hand, a little strange, "Do you have to make any preparations before entering the God's Trial?" ”
"Your gray robe is coated with a layer of separator, and you have to tear it off by hand."
Doris touched the membrane on the surface of the gray robe under her hand, but she didn't expect to tear it open with a hard pinch.
Seeing Doris tear off the diaphragm, Clive breathed a sigh of relief, he knew very well how popular the gray-robed shellfish was in the lower seas, wasn't he also because he didn't get the resources of the gray-robed shells in the Shanghai area, so he had to rely on himself to hunt in the seas?
"That's right, only what you get in your hands is your own thing."
Clive's exclamation could only be exchanged for Doris's bewildered look.
