Chapter 63: The Secrets of the Gartnu Family

As for why General Gartnut can summon evil spirits to help in the military crusade, no one can tell the secret, and some people say that General Gartnut sold his soul to the devil, so in exchange for the ability to summon ghost soldiers.

However, the Gartnu family has a noble bloodline, why should they sell their souls, no one knows the mystery.

However, some people know that General Gartnu is very ambitious, and his family has always coveted the throne of Capricorn, and even King Arodor is in awe of the Gartnu family.

But because he has to rely on General Gartnu to help the Capricorn country expand its sphere of influence, he simply turns a blind eye to what the Gartnu family does, and as long as General Gartnu does not openly commit trouble, he will go through the motions.

The power of the Gartnu family is overwhelming, but because of their great achievements, no one dares to openly challenge the prestige of the Gartnu general.

Even some righteous people who openly condemned the impeachment of General Gartnu because they were not accustomed to the unscrupulous and tyrannical behavior of the Gartnu family, but they also encountered mishaps afterwards, and they were inexplicably strewn on the streets, and they could not even find a trace of scars on their bodies.

Therefore, some people speculate that General Gartnu killed him, but there is no evidence to prove that it was Gartnu's subordinates, and there is not a trace of wounds on the deceased's body, so many people suspect that General Gartnu drove the evil spirit to kill the opponent silently.

As a result, no one dared to openly oppose General Gartnu, and King Aroldo even shy away from Gartnu's power, hoping that General Gartnu could still obey the king's call and help him expand his territory.

As long as he can reap the benefits, King Aroldo will not bother with the idle affairs of General Gartnu, after all, King Aroldo can receive countless gold and silver treasures from the tribute of his vassal states every year, which can be squandered for his pleasure, which is nothing in King Aroddo's opinion.

General Gartnut looks like a bearded military general in his fifties, with a hooked nose and green eyes that are typical of his family.

Whenever General Gartnut looked at others, his green eyes were always staring at their faces, and there was a sly and sinister look in his eyes, which made people shudder.

General Gartnut knew why he was invincible every time he went on an expedition, and it was also a secret of his family.

The Gartnu family was not strong in the Capricorn country originally, but why the family became more and more powerful later began with his grandfather.

His grandfather, Gartnu I, had a powerful rival in the Capricorn kingdom, the Nonch family. The Nonch family has royal blood, but the family members are relatively upright. I have always been unaccustomed to the style of the Gartnu family, so I have been suppressing the Gartnut family in terms of power.

Gartnu I was depressed by the suppression of the Nonch family, and during an expedition, his army was clearly at a disadvantage, which made Gartnu I very depressed.

Gartnu I learned from the captured local population that there was a mountain in this place, on which there was a temple that had been abandoned for many years, and an evil spirit was sealed inside. Legend has it that if anyone unseals the evil spirit, the evil spirit will fulfill all the requirements of the person who unsealed it.

As if he saw a glimmer of hope, Gartnu I asked the locals to take him to the temple and find out what was going on.

As they walked through some winding mountain paths, they finally found the temple that had been abandoned for many years.

The temple looked dilapidated, with massive stones crumbling across the main hall. The temple was overgrown with wild vines, hiding the ruined temple in the twilight.

Gartnu I led his soldiers into the dilapidated temple, and at the end of the hall was a dusty altar with large weathered and broken rocks piled on top of it, which seemed to have been forgotten for years.

After King Gartnu I told his soldiers to push the broken rocks away, the round granite altar was carved with some strange symbols that no one could understand.

In the center of the circular mesa is a round stone hole, in which is a spear covered with spider silk and dust. Half of the spear was sunk into the hole, and the remaining half was exposed, the sharp head covered in cobwebs and dust.

Gartnu I took out a piece of linen and wiped the spearhead, and after wiping away the dust, he looked closely, and the spear revealed its original color.

The spear was cast with some legendary god motifs and some strange text symbols, but the tip of the spear was still as sharp as new, shining with a dazzling cold light in the night.

Gartnu I's curiosity was piqued, and he wondered why this spear had never been drawn for a long time, and what kind of evil spirit was it that made the locals so afraid?

He questioned the local, and the locals told him that it was a terrible evil spirit that would bring disaster to the world, and no one dared to break the seal on it, so no one had pulled out the spear all this time.

Of course, no one can draw a spear unless he has noble blood.

Gartnu I was very surprised, who could pull out the spear, and what strange abilities did this evil spirit have?

He was very curious, and stretched out his hand and tried to pull out the spear, and the spear moved, it seems that this spear should not be impossible to pull out.

Gartnut I's ambitions were on the rise, and he wondered if I unsealed the demon, then the demon might be at my behest and help me clear all obstacles in the future.

Then his excited blood rushed to the top of his head, and Gatnu I immediately stood on top of the circular altar, clenched the spear with both hands, and began to draw the spear with all his strength.

The locals immediately understood Gartnu I's intentions, and he was so frightened that he knelt on the ground and kept kowtowing and begging Gartnu I not to break the seal, otherwise it would bring endless disasters to the world.

With an angry wave of his hand, Gartnu I told the soldiers to take the natives down, still drawing his spear vigorously.

Gartnu I was sweating profusely, but he held back his strength, and his green eyes were about to pop out.

He let out a hoarse roar, and suddenly the spear was loosened, and it was about to be pulled out by Gartnu I.

The body of the spear began to slowly stretch upwards as Gartnu I's movements began, and white blinding light shot out of the round hole.

Seeing that the spear was about to be slowly drawn, Gartnu I closed his eyes excitedly, and with all his might, he took advantage of the situation to pull the spear out of the circular hole.
