"Master Saintess?!"
Seeing the person coming, several cardinals immediately stopped their movements and bowed slightly. Although the tone could not be called respectful, it was still somewhat respectful. Of course, this was because bowing in private, let alone in public, It would be nice to speak politely.
The visitor was none other than Menglu, the Saintess of the sanctuary. She was dressed in a pure white robe and looked extraordinarily noble and refined, giving one an ethereal feeling.
Not only a few cardinals, but all the other church members who were gathering around, some knights of the Holy Knights who must have received orders to encircle Xu Xiang, all stopped their movements and bowed to Meng Lu. The status of women second only to the pope is reflected at this time.
"Is this the person who uses the holy scroll of forbidden words?" Meng Lu asked faintly, glancing at Xu Xiang with a hint of deep meaning.
"Yes, he is also the owner of this year's Balladion. We have pushed him to a corner and are about to kill him." The old cardinal is probably the most respected among the several cardinals. Kind, replied as a representative, a moderate voice spread in the huge central square, and disappeared in an instant.
However, the influence of the old cardinal's words did not end like this. Many members of the church looked surprised and looked at Xu Xiang. The confrontation between Baladion and Exelid is well known.
As the current gathering point of all eyes, Xu Xiang remained calm, did not take the opportunity to escape, and did not open his mouth to speak. Knowing that it was difficult to escape was one reason, and his trust in Meng Lu was another factor. To kill him, he could have been killed the last time he sneaked into her residence.
"Very good." Hearing the old cardinal's answer, Meng Lu said softly, and then changed the topic, "But don't you think it's too cheap to kill him like this?"
NPCs know that players can regenerate infinitely. If a few cardinals just kill Xu Xiang like this, they will lose three levels at most, and then a few irrelevant equipment will be exposed. After all, there is no support for the magic elements of the light department. He couldn't even use the Prayer of Resurrection to expose all of Xu Xiang's equipment, let alone Baladion.
Compared to the loss of the church, this is indeed a drop in the bucket.
"I don't know what the Holy Maiden can do to make him get the punishment he deserves?" Naturally, the old cardinal would not let Xu Xiang go so easily, but he, who is good at observing words and expressions, heard what Meng Lu wanted to express, so he Asked down calmly.
"I have a scroll here." Menglu took out a scroll exuding strange fluctuations from the pocket of her white robe as she spoke, and said in the same tone, "It can make him return to his original state every time he is revived." land."
Return to the original place every time you resurrect? !
Compared with Meng Lu's calmness, the surrounding cardinals, including other members of the church, were a little calmer, but it was not a simple surprise, but more a joy from the heart. For them, Xu Xiang Those who desecrate the Holy Land should receive the most severe punishment. There is no reason to refuse something that can increase the punishment. On the contrary, it is welcome.
"Please do not hesitate to use this scroll, Mrs. Saintess, so that he will get the punishment he deserves." Although the old cardinal had doubts about why Meng Lu had the scroll with the effect of "returning to the original place every time she is resurrected", Still begging aloud, the scene is full of flavor.
deserved punishment? I believe that the old cardinal will say this no matter how much punishment he faces.
"That's exactly what I meant." Meng Lu nodded, and responded. At the same time, a slight arc flashed at the corner of her mouth that no one noticed. Then she took a few steps in Xu Xiang's direction, tore off the scroll, and began to guide. Strange fluctuations of how to express it pervaded her.
When Meng Lu was guiding, the cardinals and other church personnel around them were all staring at Xu Xiang, but they were puzzled because they didn't find any resistance from Xu Xiang. It was a look of complete indifference.
Didn't he hear the function of this scroll just now
Or does he have a way to deal with it
These two thoughts popped up in the minds of everyone present except Xu Xiang and Meng Lu.
Of course Xu Xiang didn't hear it, and it wasn't that he was confident. If Meng Lu was indeed using the scroll of "returning to the original place every time he is resurrected", he would definitely run away at all costs now, or desperately interrupt Meng Lu's guidance. , there is no doubt about it, otherwise the consequences would obviously be very serious.
But since it is said to be if, it is not true. The scroll that Meng Lu used was not the scroll that "returns to the original place every time she is resurrected" as she said, but a scroll that Xu Xiang was very familiar with, more precisely, it was handed over by him. The scroll given to Menglu—
The shackles of slavery!
In fact, Xu Xiang was startled when he heard Meng Lu say that it was the scroll of "returning to the original place every time he is resurrected". He thought it was true, and he also had the idea of running away. With keen observation skills, she found that the scroll that Meng Lu took out was very familiar and judged that it was the slave's shackles, so she didn't move.
However, Xu Xiang was completely at a loss as to what Meng Lu wanted to do.
Xu Xiang remembers the effect of the slave shackles very clearly. Forcibly signing a master-servant contract with a living body, so as to enslave the other party and make it completely obey orders, but it is undoubtedly useless in the current situation. If you want to enslave the cardinal with your own strength, you can't do it, and if you aren't a cardinal, you can't play a key role.
But out of trust in Meng Lu, Xu Xiang did not show any changes, allowing her to smoothly guide the scroll of the slave's shackles.
It's a pity that Xu Xiang couldn't hold it any longer, because he found that Meng Lu's scroll target was him!
"What's going on? Isn't this scroll the slave's shackles?!" Sensing the direction that the strange magic wave emanating from Meng Lu's body was pointing at, Xu Xiang's heart began to fluctuate violently, and he couldn't help but start to doubt what he had just decided on. Guessing, the Baladion and the Elegy of Soul in his hands are getting tighter and tighter.
If the scroll used by Menglu really had the effect of "returning to the original place every time it is resurrected", then once it was used, Xu Xiang's situation would undoubtedly be very, very bad.
However, Xu Xiang couldn't make up his mind to interrupt Meng Lu's guidance or to break the stone wall to escape. end…
