Chapter 267: Two Questions
"Listen!" she said angrily, "for one, I know that you knights value honor above all else, and even exiled knights like you carry the reputation of nobility and the so-called Eight Virtues of Knighthood. It is your life's duty to abide by the dogma, so why are you willing to practice my spells? You know, practicing these cults and magic in the mouths of your knights is a move that deviates from the way of knighthood. β
"There are exceptions to everything. β
The boy smiled, not explaining too much.
If the other party can't believe it, if she has a secret technique that can search for memories, and she killed a priest of the Crimson Church, as well as her own origin, and her gold finger is all shaken out, then she will be completely finished.
"Okay. β
Obviously, the beautiful woman herself did not want to dwell too much on this question used to inquire about the mentality and motives of the teenager. After all, let alone a mentally abnormal person, even if he is a person with an extremely positive outlook, as long as he enters the Scarlet Church, he will go insane sooner or later.
Just as soon as the words came out, she seemed to think of something, and the corners of her mouth couldn't help but make a tempting arc.
"That's a good argument for you, heavy maniac, a crazy guy enough. β
The boy was stunned.
Did they notice themselves from the moment they started to compete in the gladiatorial arena?
No, maybe earlier.
What's the flaw?
The young man's mind was racing, and he soon came up with a plan.
"Whether or not to join your Crimson Church is not your business alone. If you ask me a question, I'll ask you a question too. When did you notice that I had practiced hemolysis?"
"We didn't know it at first, but we suspected that you had something to do with our Crimson Church, or our lord, the Scarlet Lord. β
The beautiful woman replied very simply, facing the young man who only had the strength of a great knight, she was full of confidence in her strength, so she didn't hide everything, and just said it bluntly.
Thus, although she did not say it thoroughly, the young man almost instantly realized many discoveries that were crucial to himβthat when he first arrived here, his power outside the city gate had been exposed, that his methods of concealing the vision of the blood well were extremely clumsy in the eyes of the master of hemolysis, or even to those who were a little more sophisticated, and that it was not only hemolysis but also his rare knightly power that might reveal his own details.
To be honest, for this last discovery, the teenager has actually had some scruples about this aspect for a long time. The massive memories in his head, I couldn't find the impression of the power of the Scarlet Knight, as if there was no such knight's power in this world. Originally, he thought that it was only because the blood color was too rare, and the original owners of those memories had limited knowledge, that they would give him such a cognition. Now it seems that it was my own brain that overmade up for it.
Now that he has figured out the reason, he secretly alerted himself, let alone hemolysis in the future, even the power of the knight cannot be easily released from the body to be revealed.
His thoughts turned, and he refocused his gaze on the beautiful woman again.
"Yes, but I have one more question before I answer your second question. What if I don't want to join your Crimson Church?"
"Whoever practices the spells of my teaching, and does not join my teaching, is an enemy of my teaching, and is punished with death as a heretic. The beautiful woman's eyes narrowed slightly, and there was a hint of coldness in her tone, "The knight only believes in the Eight Virtues, so not only does he not believe in the kingdom religion, but he also cannot join those cults like my Scarlet Church in the mouth of the Holy See. You are an exception, an exception with both knighthood and Crimson spelling. Your value is very high, if you believe in the Scarlet Maharaja, it will still not affect your knighthood, we may be able to find a way to match the two, so as to get ahead of those kingdoms and the Holy See, and win over the royal nobles of each kingdom. Therefore, it is only good for you to join us, and I hope you can consider it carefully, and do not rush to refuse and lose your life in vain. β
The young man's face sank, and he was in a bad mood, not only because of the threat of the beautiful woman, but also because he was unaware of his own changes, and he was helpless.
Seeing that the young man did not react, the beautiful woman did not care, and after a short pause, she continued to talk to herself.
"But that's all after the second question, maybe we don't agree if you agree, so you don't have to think about it for the time being. β
Speaking of this, she glanced at the young man meaningfully, and the last trace of emotion in her smile was also sucked away, like a corpse pulled out by someone with a smiling face, and it made people panic.
The taste of the hands of the people who are in the hands of life and death is not pleasant, and the meaning in the beautiful woman's words could not be more obvious, the young man was immediately solemn, a little wary, and the hand holding the hilt of the sword was also clenched tightly.
He nodded, "Please ask." β
"Second question, where did you get your hemolysis?"
As soon as the words came out, the beautiful woman immediately watched the young man's reaction with full attention.
"I ......"
As soon as the boy spoke, she stood up directly.
"Needless to say, my pupils are slightly open, my heart is beating slightly, and my breathing is paused for a moment, although you hide it well, but I have already smelled a lie in advance. The beautiful woman's tone regained her bewitching charm, and the fangs at the corners of her mouth became more and more conspicuous, "Give you another chance...... Oh, are you going to give up on yourself?"
Looking at the young man who had already poured the power of the knight into the broadsword while speaking, and put on the knightly skill starting style, the beautiful woman was surprised.
"On the contrary, I don't have a chance, but I don't want to just give up. β
The other party's means are unpredictable, and Meng can't be blinded, but to be honest, maybe the end will not be much better, and besides, even if he passes this test, he will not join the Crimson Church, sooner or later he will be the enemy, it is better to come simply. Moreover, he is not without a chance of winning, such as the blood sacrifice technique, he has not yet put it on the surface. No matter how high the opponent's strength is, if he is caught off guard, it is possible to give himself a chance to escape.
Speaking of which, the young man didn't leave himself a trace of leeway, and the situation instantly became tense, looking at the beautiful woman's cold face, it seemed that he would attack at any time.
However, just as the young man was contemplating the escape plan while concentrating on vigilance, for no reason, the beautiful woman's face changed and disappeared in an instant.
The boy was startled, and the broadsword wrapped in the knight's power swept again, only this time, he only swept a piece of air.
Looking around, there was not a single shadow on the empty path, as if what had just happened was just a dream. Fortunately, the dried corpses of servants and horses, the carriage that had broken through a hole, and the two daughters, who were delirious as if they were drunk, proved to him that they were not false.
The boy once again performed the knightly technique, and the power of the knight was poured into the broadsword, and then, like a sculpture, stood still in place. At the same time, he makes full use of all his senses, scanning his surroundings over and over again.
And so, half an hour passed.
The young man finally regained his momentum, and together with the broadsword in his hand, he picked up all the bits and pieces scattered on the ground and threw them on the cart, and then took the reins, pulled the carriage with brute force, and hurried towards the suburbs.
The road where the carriage had been parked was clean for a while, as if nothing had happened here.
