Se Jialan's body was placed on a long table. Without the armor, Se Jialan also lost the edge that could not be described in words. Her lips were pale, her chest had stopped rising and falling, and her eyes were Half open and half closed, the pupils are dim and dull.
There was dead silence in the handsome tent, except for the faint sound of quarrels coming from outside. The death of Sejialan was a devastating blow to the people of Emperor Shansha! All the generals were quarreling about their future. Some advocated an all-out attack to avenge Sejialan, while some advocated retreating immediately to preserve the last strength for the empire. However, from dusk to dawn, no one was able to quarrel. Can convince the other party.
The most painful person is Prince Kierik. Although the generals have quarreling opponents, they also have colleagues who support them. However, Prince Kierik has nothing and is alone, like a ghost. Sitting quietly in the corner. Everyone knows that the reason why Sejialan was assassinated was because Kierik fell into the enemy's trap. If Sejialan had not left, no one could assassinate Sejia in this strong military camp. Lan, even a strong man from the holy realm can't do it!
As the only remaining leader of Emperor Shansha's army, he was not even qualified to visit Sejialan's body. Of course, this was not directed at Prince Kierik, and no one was qualified. The arrogant Manchusili forced his way into Se Jialan's handsome tent last night. Although he had good intentions and wanted to observe whether it was possible to save Se Jialan's life, he was immediately attacked by several mysterious guards around Se Jialan. Attacked, and finally escaped in embarrassment, even almost being injured. From then on, Se Jialan's handsome tent became a forbidden area.
At dawn, a dark shadow that didn't know when it appeared fluttered in front of Sejialan's handsome tent. The curtain opened without any wind, and the next moment. The black shadow disappeared. He came and went without alerting anyone, not even the few personal guards who were less than ten meters away from the handsome tent.
In the handsome tent, besides the breathless Se Jialan, there were three knights in black clothes and black robes who saw the black shadow. The three knights knelt down together.
The black shadow said nothing and floated straight to the long table, staring at Sejialan quietly. He looked extremely ugly. The cheeks are too thin. It can even be said that there is not much flesh and blood, and there are countless wrinkles on the face, even on the bridge of the nose, and the whole face looks like the tattered rag. His eye sockets are much larger than normal people, and his blinking speed is much slower than normal people, as if his eyelids can hardly bear their own weight. Every time he blinks, his eyelids slowly droop, and then slowly Pull up.
"You guys go out," Gorman said slowly.
The three knights stood up neatly. He turned around and retreated outside the tent, but they did not leave and stood guard at the door of the handsome tent.
Gorman stretched out his hand and stroked Sejialan's lifeless cheek. His knowledge was extraordinary. He can be regarded as the first person in mainland China. But such a person always makes irreparable mistakes in his life. No matter whether others fear him or respect him, only he knows that his heart is filled with suffocating vicissitudes of life and there is an extremely heavy burden on his shoulders.
The reason is that he often views human nature too optimistically! A long time ago, he learned some history and knew what kind of contribution the Necromancer had made to the mainland, so he sympathized with the Necromancer and believed that the Necromancer was just fighting for his own survival. In addition, he also wants to pursue eternal life, because he has too many things to do and too many questions to think about. If he wants to realize his ideal, he first needs enough time.
Ironically, it took him hundreds of years to realize that what he wanted, the great Minos I, the powerful man he had followed all his life, was not survival, but destruction, complete destruction! Gorman couldn't bear this result. There was only one way before him, to deny his life with betrayal!
Is it painful? Only after experiencing this feeling did Gorman realize that the most painful thing for a person is not separation between life and death, but when he is old and weak, and suddenly realizes that his life should be completely denied, and all his pursuits have no meaning. significance.
When I met Beeri, he made the mistake of being too optimistic again! He admired Bailey very much and regarded Bailey as a close friend. He pushed Sejialan to the front of the stage. In fact, just like parents like to show off their children's intelligence in front of others, Gorman was just showing off in front of his close friends. , but who would have thought that Beeri, who was enthusiastic and cheerful, had another side, and for some reason, he actually killed Victoria.
Princess Victoria is another close friend of his. He met Victoria first, and then accepted Sejialan as a student. Victoria did not alienate or fear him because of his identity or his ugliness. The two often held candles together. The night talks covered almost everything from ancient times to the present, from the royal family to people's livelihood. Of course, Victoria mostly chose to play the role of listening.
Because of his showing off, Victoria's beauty died. Who should bear this responsibility? Although no one had ever condemned him, every time he thought of Victoria, his long-lost heart always felt sharp pain.
He couldn't blame Beeri yet and could only choose to distance himself. Beeri was not only his close friend, but also the general of the Mayo Empire and the commander of the Death Roaring Army. He had to consider the problem from the perspective of the Mayo Empire. He understood Beeri's decision, but he couldn't accept it!
Gorman let out a long sigh, and slowly moved his hand towards Se Jialan's left hand, but as if he encountered some resistance, his speed became slower and slower, and finally stopped there, the red light in his eyes still flickering. indefinite.
He was too familiar with this student. After all, he had watched Se Jialan grow up with his own eyes. Se Jialan only had respect for him but no feelings for her. No matter how much he did for her, she cried and begged him to do it for her when she was a child. When his mother took revenge, his cruelty had deeply hurt Se Jialan. Do? Or not? Gorman, who is extremely knowledgeable, has become an ordinary person at this moment. He is hesitating. If he does it, he will face everything he has tried to avoid for decades. If he doesn't do it, he will not be able to forgive himself, and he will be even more ashamed of Xiangxiao. The dead Victoria!
If something unexpected happens to me one day, you must treat Sejialan as your own daughter! That kind of resolute smile with a bit of worry and a bit of coquettishness appeared in front of Gorman again, that's all! Gorman let out another long sigh, stretched out his finger, and hit the ring on the index finger of Sejialan's left hand.
What Se Jialan wore on her finger was originally a simple-shaped ring, but with Gorman's touch, the shape of the ring suddenly changed. On the mirror-like gem, a very dazzling blood-red light appeared. What's even more strange is that the six-pointed star array is constantly contracting and expanding in a stable pattern, just like the human heart.
Plop... Plop... Unique fluctuations that only necromancy magicians can sense spread out in all directions, centered on the handsome tent.
Plop... Plop... Morgan and Darth Vader, who were still staying in the mercenary country, first sensed the fluctuation. Even though they were very far away from the military camp, the two grand masters who looked at the entire continent and could even point their fingers at the sky and scolded them turned out to be like frightened rabbits. After a long pause, Morgan suddenly roared: "Gorman, are you crazy! Why did you activate the Ring of Immortality!"
Plop... Plop... The fluctuations spread to Greenwich Island. On the top of the Skeleton Mountain, a lonely and broken white skeleton suddenly raised its head to the sky and let out a hoarse scream. The scream was full of excitement and anger. .
Se Jialan's lifeless body is covered with red threads. Even though the Ring of Immortality has always been sealed, and even though Se Jialan's injuries are hopeless, the red threads are always flowing slowly. , as if trying hard to retain something. At this moment, the Ring of Immortality has been activated, and the red threads have not only become thicker, but also flowed faster, so that Se Jialan's entire body glowed with a dazzling red light.
"I really don't know whether what I did was right or wrong..." Gorman was talking to himself and suddenly laughed: "Forget it, I have done too many wrong things anyway, so I don't need to care about one more time."
Wisps of vitality condensed in Se Jialan's body. I don't know how long it took, but Se Jialan slowly opened his eyes. Just when he saw the black figure, Se Jialan seemed to be confused by Gorman's appearance. Not too surprised, she just gritted her teeth and tried to sit up. Unfortunately, she still couldn't control most of her body. She finally gave up and whispered: "Teacher, you are here."
"Do you know why I chose you to be my student?" Gorman said slowly without looking back.
"You said you saw my future in the stars."
"Yes, I said it, and I also said that I saw you became the queen of the Shansha Empire. Is this the source of your confidence?" Gorman smiled: "But do you know that these days? Why haven’t I talked to you about the stars again?”
"have no idea."
"Because everything is in chaos." Gorman had an extra stone in his hand and threw it into the basin next to the long table. A long-bright lamp reflected in the basin instantly turned into countless stars: "Although I don't I know the reason, but it should be similar to this basin of water."
"Teacher, I don't understand."
"Because there is an extra variable in this world for no reason." Gorman whispered: "Before I figure out what this variable is, your fate has become confusing, so you must learn to value yourself and don't Don't believe my previous predictions anymore." Gorman not only fulfilled his responsibilities as a teacher, he even acted like a real father. He did not confess what kind of danger what he just did would bring to himself. He only I want Sejialan to pay attention to protecting herself.
