It took a full day for Ghalib to go there. By the time he returned to Iron Fist Castle safely, it was already the afternoon of the next day. When he returned to Iron Fist Castle, he also brought good news. The hateful demon general Astasler indeed left this plane through the teleportation magic circle. The tiefling lord Kuze kept gathering the tiefling army in the depths of Blackstone City. The severely injured lord sent an order The soldiers went to recall the tieflings who were marching in many directions such as the Imperial Capital and Moon Moon City. Although it would take a while to withdraw all the tiefling troops, the threat posed by the tiefling invasion It is an undoubted fact that it has weakened.
As the most powerful person in the Human Alliance and the only one in the field, Jialib's opinions have naturally become the focus of everyone's reference. This exiled adult dragon made no secret of his desire to participate in the Millennium War. In his opinion, he has been exiled from Dragon Island for thousands of years. During such a long period of time, he had to travel around in human form, and even crossed the space barrier many times to venture to other planes. The methods that can be found to improve the strength have been almost exhausted. Now the Hatred Demon General Astarot has placed another way to increase his strength in front of Galib. How can he not be tempted
"I've been wandering aimlessly for thousands of years. To tell you the truth, I'm tired." Ghalib slowly expressed his thoughts: "Loneliness, loneliness, loss, and the confused feeling of not being able to find the way forward are... My only companion on the journey, many times I even questioned why I continued to exist. I even gave up the pursuit of power and lived a bohemian life for a time, until I met Michelle, but It's a pity that from this woman, I only got betrayal in the end. This is probably my punishment. I failed a beautiful woman, so let me taste that betrayal from another woman. "
Ghalib's inner monologue left most people sitting in the study confused. Although everyone could guess from his words that Ghalib had had an unpleasant emotional experience in his early years, so that He is very miserable on the road to pursuing power, but the specific content involved is not clear.
Only Freya truly understood what Ghalib was referring to. The love-hate relationship between Ghalib, Queen Helis, and the adult dragon woman Daisy, Freya inherited from The Elf Queen’s inherited memory was clearly understood, and the past events about Michelle, a woman from the Night Wind Empire, whom Galibu met at the other side of the Hengduan Mountains, were secretly retrieved from Ryan’s memory through the moonlight brooch. She knew, so she understood very well why the man in front of her had such decadent thoughts,
Ghalib is not a person like Orlando who fights for justice and lofty ideals. His character is very similar to Ryan. They are both the kind of men who are only willing to fight for their relatives and friends around them. But unfortunately, there are people around Ryan. Faras has Alan Duo, but there is no one around Ghalib. He has no goal to work hard for, but he still has to bear a lot of responsibilities that he should not bear. This feeling makes Ghalib a little bit. Out of breath, he would rather give it a try.
"Okay, I'm too lazy to mention these old things. You can go out first." Ghalib waved his hands a little tiredly. When everyone got up and walked to the door of the study, Ghalib suddenly said: "Catherine... Can you stay? I have a few words to say to you."
Everyone's attention immediately focused on Catherine. This legendary strongman who was clearly a member of the Undead Army suddenly stepped forward at the most critical moment of the Human Alliance yesterday. Although everyone did not understand what this woman was thinking in her heart, but It is an indisputable fact that Catherine's appearance has helped the Human Alliance, so in the past day, except Faras who glared at Catherine, others were quite tolerant to her, but there was always Freya by Catherine's side. Accompanying her, Alando, Victor and Orlando took turns appearing in Freya's field of vision, but Catherine turned a blind eye to all this. On the surface, everyone was in harmony and peaceful.
When there were only two people left in the study, Jialibu sighed lightly. He looked at Catherine's face carefully and couldn't help but whispered: "It's so similar, so similar..."
Catherine directly pulled up a chair and sat across from Ghalib, with a hint of ridicule in her tone: "I heard the boy say, you are my father, tsk tsk, are you planning to stage a 4 As for the opera with one act, the plot is so vulgar that almost any opera troupe with more than five people can write and perform its own tragicomedy."
"You do have my blood in you. This is an undeniable fact." As if to verify this sentence, Jialibu's body suddenly exuded a dragon's breath of life. If other creatures were in his Anyone who is not as strong as Jialibu will definitely succumb to the breath of this adult dragon, but Catherine did not. Instead, she felt a friendly flavor from Jialibu's breath, which made her There was quite a bit of attachment in her heart, and Catherine's upper body involuntarily leaned towards Ghalib. This was a gesture of letting go of guarding and expressing intimacy.
After realizing that she had lost some composure, Catherine tightened her face again, looking like the eternal ice. She was about to criticize Jialib, but unexpectedly Jialib spoke first: "Bloodline You can't doubt it, otherwise you really think that the demigod lich really only cares about your qualifications. Although your qualifications are also very good, my words today are not to redeem anything. In fact, I am not qualified to do it. Your father, because I didn’t even know you existed before the night you led your team to attack Iron Fist Castle at night.”
"You..." Catherine's inner anger arose spontaneously. She gritted her teeth and stared at Jialib, wishing to punch him hard, although Catherine knew very well in her heart that she could never hurt Jialib even if she tried her best. With every effort, after reversing from a lich to a human, Catherine's body returned to its previous state, and she gradually gained many human emotions. This was probably something the demigod lich had not thought of before performing the ritual. It was just that Catherine was very afraid of her teacher and barely showed the changes in her heart. However, when she met Ryan, many clues slowly emerged. When Catherine heard the true story about her life experience from Ryan After the secret, she felt angrier than ever before.
If given the choice, Catherine would not like to be transformed into a pile of bones, let alone experience long and boring years in the cold and dark Crazy Lich Tower. In Catherine's view, the biggest factor causing the tragedy in her life is her parents. , if they hadn’t abandoned him, how could he have fallen to where he is today? In the eyes of outsiders, Catherine and the others were powerful senior generals of the undead army, but these lichs who had reached the legendary realm were just demigod lichs. A vassal that is worse than a slave, because at least slaves can awaken to resist their cruel masters, but lichs cannot have the slightest idea of resisting their creators.
After experiencing a long period of time, Catherine believed that her mother should have died, but her father was still there, and he was still a powerful expert in the field. Therefore, the pain and anger accumulated in her heart over the years were eliminated by Catherine. All were transferred to Ghalib, not to mention that Andrew, the culprit who forced Catherine to follow the demigod lich Kangs to the other world, was trained by his own father. This further intensified Catherine's inner feelings towards Ghalib. Libu’s hatred,
"Don't think you can get rid of all this." Catherine yelled a little rudely,
"I have not denied that I was the culprit of all this. If I had not gone to the other side of the Hengduan Mountains and met Michelle, there would not have been so many things that happened later. But there is one thing I want to tell you, That is, there was indeed a happy time between Michelle and I." Ghalib said frankly: "I will not ask you to forgive me, let alone explain anything in a low voice, because all of this is I caused it myself, and the only consequence of regret is to make myself suffer even more.”
"Haha, you are actually in pain."
"In fact, I have hardly had any happy days in this half of my life." Ghalib said, "So I left you alone. I just wanted to say a few words to you. It's my... advice."
"Hey, if a powerful domain expert has any orders, small legendary experts like us can't just follow them, but I really want to know how you plan to deal with me if I don't disobey your wishes. Extract my soul or banish me to another dimension forever." Catherine replied disdainfully, with a mocking expression on her face.
"I know that any lich that is transformed by a demigod lich will have a fragment of its soul left by its side. This is also the most effective way for it to control you." Ghalib ignored Catherine's words and said to himself. : "Since it is called a demigod lich, its strength must have reached the realm of a demigod, otherwise the seven kings of the other world would not stay away from it. With my current domain power, I am naturally no match for it, but I may not be able to help you release this control."
The sarcastic expression on Catherine's face froze immediately after Ghalib said these words. There was an incredible expression in her eyes. She didn't know why Jhalib actually knew such a secret thing. Yes, half a year ago When the god lich Kangs presided over the lich transformation ceremony for Catherine, he did take away a fragment of her soul. As long as Catherine had the idea of betraying Kangs in her heart, even if she just thought about it, Kangs would immediately feel it. With its strength, just using this ray of soul fragment to cast a spell is enough to completely destroy Catherine's soul and body. It is completely wiped out from this world. Maybe even if the gods take action, it will not be possible again. Resurrection of Catherine or finding a way to reincarnate her soul is also this constraint that allows the demigod lich to safely let Catherine and the others leave their side to act in other planes, and Catherine must carry out this constraint unconditionally. Following his teacher's orders, Ghalib suddenly said that he could help Catherine break this bondage. How could this not shock her heart
