Chapter 223: Zamrin 4
"That elder of yours is dead. Gell smiled coldly.
Zamlin's face stiffened, and he originally wanted to use the non-existent elder to press Gehr a little, so that he would have some pressure, and the words to create a glimmer of life for himself were suddenly blocked in his throat.
Looking at Zamrin's expression, Gehr also roughly guessed what he thought, but he didn't bother to expose him, and continued to urge directly: "Go on." β
"Yes...... Be...... We have had a patron in the Sainz family, and this Ring of the Faris Oath is his relic. β
"Go on. β
"Before the elder died, he passed on the ring, and blessed it with a power with his most powerful power, so that once he got close to the other Faris Oath Rings, the ring would glow and heat......" Speaking of this, Zamlin's gaze secretly moved to the ring in Gehr's hand, and at that moment, there was greed and fanaticism, as well as remorse and sorrow.
"That's what you call a secret?"
Looking at Gehr's smiling expression, Zamlin immediately shuddered, and quickly replied: "The Ring of the Oath of Faris is actually a token, as long as you find the contact point set up by those patrons in the city, you can get a chance to become a patron through the Ring of Pharis Oath." β
Gehr nodded, what Zamrin said was more accurate than the concealed information that Nisler had revealed before his death, confirming his previous suspicion that this so-called patron should be the identity of those demon hunters who came to this world after their transformation.
"What do you know about your so-called patrons? β
"Patrons are the name given to a group of people with mystical powers, and they say they are a group. But in reality, there are many different organizations, and some of them cooperate with each other to form alliances. Some will be hostile and even war-like. But I look at the records left by the elder. As far as he knew, although the Protectors were based on various small groups, they were also a united group as a whole, and the Ring of the Faris Oath was created at that time to identify their identities, but later due to their respective ideas or interests, the entire Sponsor Group was divided, forming various Sponsor Organizations. They don't usually enter the areas where ordinary people are, they all live in remote areas where people are rarely inhabited, and ordinary people may never see them in their lifetime. Tomlin told him everything he knew.
"Then what are you going to snatch my Faris Oath Ring for? Why don't your family look for a patron point of contact and get the opportunity to become a patron?"
"It's not that I don't want to go, it's that I can't go. Zamrin smiled wryly and shook his head, "You see the cracks in the ring, in fact, the ring has been shattered in a battle in the hands of my elder, a battle with other patrons, and my elder was seriously wounded and died after only living a hundred and sixty years. What you see now is that my elders have reglued it together with the power of their care, and it looks pretty good. But except for the ability to sense other Faris Oath Rings in the vicinity given by the elders, there is no difference between the other and a normal ring, but without an intact Faris Oath Ring, then those who patronize will never agree with you. β
"So what is the function of the intact Faris Oath Ring?"
"Power Core. After activation, it can interact with the mysterious power in the body of the patron who owns the ring, and generate a force that is so powerful that it distorts the rules of reality, but once the patron is irreversibly injured. Then the ring will automatically share a portion of the damage, or even damage. Just like this one, the above are the original words left by my elders. I don't know much about most of it. β
"Well, I see, but you're doing this today just for a chance to be a patron?"
"It's just? Do you understand how important it is for a family to have such an opportunity? As long as it succeeds, my family will have the opportunity to become a principality, and even if it fails, it will have the opportunity to become a peripheral subsidiary organization of the patrons, which will not only make the family position stable, but also gain some relevant knowledge about the patrons, so that the next generation of the family and the next generation will start learning from an early age, and have a far better chance of becoming a patron than others, isn't this enough?" Speaking of this, Zamrin looked a little excited.
"Let me tell you a real secret, the first generation of the royal family of the Mannheim Alliance countries was either a patron or a patron bloodline, and they also had a secret pact with each other. If there is no such identity, then the nobility will always be the nobility, and even if he reaches the top, he is just a prominent nobleman. In the face of this kind of opportunity, I will never let it go!"
The so-called Mannheim Union states are the federation of states on the edge of the Γesco Ocean, including Carbol and Placia, whose members are mainly small and medium-sized principalities, and are an important force dominating the continent.
Hearing this, Gehr was stunned. For the sake of these interests, Zamrin's actions are nothing.
Zamrin told everything he knew, and on the contrary, he let go, as if he had let go of a burden, and the whole person was relaxed.
"Is there anything else you'd like to ask?"
"It's okay, I think everything I know is already clear, and you can't answer the rest. Gell nodded.
"I have been training under my father's strict requirements since I was a child, just to increase my chances of becoming a patron after obtaining the Ring of the Vow of Faris, for this slim hope, I have lived a life that is not even as good as the untouchables outside, and now that I have this opportunity, I will never let it go! Zamrin closed his eyes, and with his brain, he wouldn't expect Gehr to let him go, just as he wouldn't let Gehr go if he had the upper hand.
"There's only one request, let me die a happy death. β
"As you wish. β
Gehr exerted force with his left hand, so that Zamrin's body turned away from him, and he held the hilt of the sword with his right hand, drawing the sword, stabbing it, and returning it to the sheath in one go, like a bolt of lightning.
Only at this moment, the tip of Geer's cross sword had pierced the back of Zamrin's head, destroying the tissues inside, allowing him to enter the arms of the god of the underworld almost painlessly, and the corpse was not too damaged.
With a pop, Gehr's left hand let go, and Zamrin's body fell limply to the ground.
Squatting down, Gell carefully examined Zamrin's body on one side, except for a money bag, everything else was some gold, silver and gem jewelry, and nothing else.
Throwing the trinkets in his purse, Gehr looked around a little more, and when he was sure that nothing was missing, he walked away quickly.
As for Tomlin's body, nature will give it the best way to dispose of it.
Arriving at the place where the battle had taken place at the beginning, Camerita had already moved the corpses together, and found some dry branches and leaves to pile together, as if to make a fire to destroy the corpses.
"You're done?"
"Well, let's go. Gell greeted Carmerita and walked in the direction she came.
"Gehr, don't you take care of these corpses? Camerita looked at the dry pyre that was almost forming at her feet, and wondered.
"It's okay, the one in charge of dealing with it has already arrived. β
At this time, there were several wolf howls from the depths of the dense forest, and only for a moment, echoing wolf howls were heard from the other direction.
"It's the wolves, and the smell of blood draws them in. They will eat all the corpses there, and nothing will remain. Gell looked behind him, and a pair of emerald beast eyes had begun to faintly appear in the shadows of the bushes.
Seeing that the guests for the banquet had begun to arrive, the two did not stay any longer and left the incident point quickly.
"What's next for us?" After leaving a long enough distance not to attract the wolves, the two slowed down a bit, and then Camerita asked.
"Let's go find a place to get some clothes. Gehr understood what kind of image he was now, and although Camerita was a little better, there were also spots of blood on her white robe, coupled with the thick bloody aura on her body, both of them belonged to the kind that would cause great vigilance and vigilance when they went out of the crowd now.
"Then we went back to Amenas as fast as we could. β
"Hmm. Carmerita nodded her head in agreement with Gehr's opinion.
The two of them walked extremely fast, and soon disappeared into the woods. After a light breeze, the leaves that were floating in the air swirled, and the faint bloody gas also accompanied the wind into the distance, dissipating away.
......
A week later, in the wee hours of the morning, somewhere in the underground secret passage of the Amenas Tavern for the Blind.
In the dark tunnel, a light slowly moved forward, and the light trembled with the sound of footsteps crashing back and forth between the walls of the narrow passageway.
The light came from a bronze oil lamp held on top of an old hand owned by Buda, the owner of the Blind Tavern and the head of contact for the Ring of El in Amenas, the Visitor's organization.
Behind Buda, Gell and Carmelita walked side by side, carefully following Buda's footsteps.
Both were carrying a dark bag. With a cross sword at his waist, he looks like someone who is going on a trip.
In fact, what the two of them are facing is indeed a trip, a long journey.
Along the way, none of the three of them spoke, just walked quietly, only the sound of footsteps proved their real existence.
"Alright, this is it. Buda finally spoke, breaking the silence in the tunnels and ending the more than hour-long underground walk.
I saw Buda groping for a while on a stone slab that looked no different from the other walls of the tunnel, and then pulled up a ring, and as soon as he exerted his strength, a sound of mechanism transmission sounded, and a square opening appeared above the tunnel, and the starlight poured down from the sky, shining the dust falling down the exit.
"Come on. Buda climbed the ladder at the exit first.
Gehr and Carmelita followed. (To be continued......)
