"Wang Huan… "
Annie and Elena exclaimed almost at the same time, but I strode outside the five-pointed star, spread my hands and looked at the thick smoke floating in the distance: "I have stood up, you can kill me ?"
The voice in the thick smoke was silent for a moment before saying, "How did you discover my secret?"
The other party seemed to have admitted my speculation. Anne and Elena, who were still calling me back, fell silent at the same time and looked at me with disbelief.
I nodded slightly to the two people and then said: "The reason is very simple. If you showed up directly, I would not doubt it. But in order to prevent us from running around, you deliberately created a five-pointed star array. It is tantamount to directly exposing your falsehood."
I said in a deep voice: "None of us want to establish a contract with you, let alone draw a five-pointed star array. So, you helped us draw such a thing. In fact, this star array does not Any defensive effect, you can come in and out freely.”
The voice took a breath and said, "You're right, what else is there?"
I continued: "I conclude that your power has disappeared long ago, and it is still because of this five-pointed star formation. If your strength is still there, you will not use such a stupid method. You can kill one of us One or two people can't kill us all, and you can't even get far away from the church. So, you can only trap us and keep putting pressure on us? Am I right!"
"Yes, yes! Everything you said is right!" The voice suddenly lost control and roared hoarsely: "Damn Easterners, damned Eastern curse. If it weren't for you, I wouldn't be in this situation. I was almost out of trouble. Oh, it’s all you Orientals who have made me stay in this place, damn... damn... damn... "
The other party yelled "Damn it" three times before stopping. I hugged my shoulders and said coldly, "If you've yelled enough, we should talk."
The other party was silent for a moment and said, "What do you want to talk about?"
I said calmly: "Let's talk about how you got trapped in this church?"
"You..." The other party almost became angry with embarrassment.
It is already a shame for a devil who controls wind and rain to be imprisoned in a small church, and now I have to uncover his scars, how can he not be angry.
I didn't pay attention to the other party's anger at all: "I advise you to tell the truth. Whether you can leave here does not depend on whether you can sign a contract with us, but whether you tell the truth."
The other party took a few deep breaths and said: "My name is Allen. I am a bloody demon. Hundreds of years ago, I was summoned to this castle by a baron named Yaerlin and signed a contract with him... However, he But he betrayed me and the contract..."
Although I can tell that in order to prevent us from knowing the real name of his demon, the other party not only gave himself a human name, Allen, but also made up the so-called bloody demon. Judging from his style, Allen is not a proficient person. The murderous demon.
As for Baron Arlin's summoning of demons, it is possible that it is true. After all, the legend has been circulating for a long time.
However, these things are not important to me. What I am eager to know is what follows.
However, Allen's emotions were out of control again: "What the hell, I was about to break the traitor's seal and return to hell. What the hell... In the end, an Easterner came and he brought the devil from the East..., No, according to what he said, he brought a demon. The curse of the demon!"
I said coldly: "Please tell me clearly whether it is the devil or the curse of the devil."
"Curse... Curse... It's a curse!" Allen shouted a few times and finally calmed down a little: "Although the oriental man brought the curse of the devil, there must be the will of the devil in it. That devil is very Powerful, I even think he is as powerful as Lord Lucifer. Just a residual will can make me dare not resist."
I was silent for a moment and continued to ask: "Where is the demon curse you mentioned attached to? Is it something?"
"I don't know!" Allen shook his head and said, "I only know that the Eastern man brought in a dozen large boxes. He piled them all on the innermost floor of the castle. Then, the Eastern man left the castle on his own. Later, the curse of the devil began to spread in the castle. It was terrible, his power was really terrible."
"I tried to resist the other party, but he drove me out of the castle and rushed me to this church without any effort." Allen sighed and said: "Back then, the traitor Arlin summoned me from here. After I came out, the devil drove me here again and let me fend for myself here. According to him, this is called reincarnation."
I couldn't help but frown slightly: "Did anyone come here later?"
Allen admitted: "Some people have come, and many people have come one after another. Some come here to hunt for treasures, some come here to die, and some come here to bring other cursed objects into the castle. However, they did not One can get out alive.”
Allen said solemnly: "This is a cursed place and a place of imprisonment."
I pointed behind me and asked, "What's going on with the relief on the cliff over there?"
Allen said: "Those are the people who have been cursed. The Eastern Demon God said that Eastern people believe in something called retribution. That is to say, if they do something bad, that thing will happen to them. On the body."
"Those who dug stone sculptures were eventually cursed and turned into stone sculptures." Allen said: "There are still people who are even worse than them. The devil not only has his own curse, but also amplifies other curses infinitely. This This place is heavily cursed, and you can’t even think about leaving without someone to guide you.”
I sneered: "You want to tell me that you can be the one who guides me, right?"
Allen said: "Yes! I am the only one who knows this place best. Without me taking you, you can't even think of getting out, so why don't you establish a contract with me? I don't want you to sacrifice anything, as long as you can take me out." "
"What if I say no?" I looked towards the direction of Allen's voice with a half-smile: "In addition to providing us with clues, what else can you do? Lend us power, or help us kill Demon God? You can't do anything, why should I sign a contract with you?"
"Humans, don't be too greedy!" Allen said angrily: "Isn't it enough to allow you to get out alive?"
I sneered and said, "If you had the ability to go out, you would have gone out long ago. Those clues you call are probably not worth a penny to us."
"Nonsense!" Allen roared: "I have lived here for so many years, how many people have I seen die from the curse? What I can tell you is far more than you think."
When I was about to speak, Annie pulled the corner of my clothes behind me. She can't transmit sounds into the secret like we can. This is the only way to express her meaning. She probably wanted me to consider Alan's proposal.
From the bottom of my heart, Allen's proposal is indeed heartwarming. In a crisis-ridden environment, it is much better to have someone act as a guide than to wander around blindly on your own. Even if Allen can play a role, it is just a guide.
I gently waved my hand to stop Annie, and said to Allen: "You didn't just say this to us, right? Have those people ever walked out?"
"That's them..." Allen stopped mid-sentence.
I said in a deep voice: "Let me ask you again, what are the reliefs on the mountain wall?"
Allen gritted his teeth and said: "They originally established a contract with me, but they didn't do what I said. As a result, the curse was triggered, and they wanted to escape from the cliff. As a result, they all changed just halfway there. It became a stone sculpture.”
"Who can blame this? It's all their own fault? If they would listen to me, we might... might have gone out."
Allen said anxiously: "As long as you are willing to listen to me, I guarantee that none of you will die. I guarantee it."
I suddenly asked: "What's going on with the iron drills on the chests of those corpses?"
"It's the church..." After Allen said three words, he realized that he had let it slip: "The knights of the church came here. They thought the cursed people were vampires, so they fixed iron hammers on their chests. Of course. , those disgusting things finally died under the curse of the devil."
Allen said eagerly: "Let's not talk about this first. Let's talk about the contract. As long as you are willing to establish a contract with me. I can give you a lot of things..."
I interrupted the other party with a deep voice: "I can tell you bluntly. The purpose of my coming is to enter the castle and find the cursed object. I can let you be our guide, but I will not establish a relationship with you. contract."
"You can choose to cooperate with me, or you can choose to stay here and wait for the next batch of adventurers to arrive. I believe they will come soon, and you won't have to wait too long."
Allen gritted his teeth and said, "If you don't establish a contract with me, how can I trust you?"
"I don't believe you either." I said in a deep voice, "I'll count to three. If you don't agree, I'll leave immediately."
"We must establish a contract, even an equal contract." Allen insisted: "We devils only believe in contracts."
While I frowned slightly, Annie whispered: "The equal contract is acceptable, it is just a cooperative relationship."
I raised my head and said, "Who do you want to sign a contract with?"
"With you!" Allen said: "You are not the most powerful person, but you are the leader of these, and you are more terrifying than anyone else. I can only feel relieved if I sign a contract with you."
I looked at the other party with a gloomy look: "Tell me the contents of the contract!"
Allen said: "I will help you achieve your goals. You take away my demon body trapped in the old castle. That body contains my real name. Before the contract is completed, we cannot hurt each other. After it is completed, we What do you think about them going their separate ways?"
