As if he was thinking about Rommel's words, after about a few seconds, Richard looked at Rommel and asked loudly: "Is this matter so easy to solve without a supervisor? I sincerely join the organization. No matter what I have done before, Can anything be ignored? Inspector Chekaf, can you agree?"
Rommel showed a smile: "This matter, it can be difficult to operate, or it can be very simple. The reason why it is difficult, of course, is not that easy to solve. The reason why it is simple... let me tell you something like this. "
"What's the matter?" Richard asked.
"Do you still remember that a few months ago, in order to ask me for the last part of the "Void Book", you made an agreement with me in the forest to fight in half a month?"
"Remember." Richard nodded.
"Then you must still remember that before I said goodbye to you, I killed an enemy with a level 4 wizard. Before killing him, the enemy kept shouting 'Jurgen'."
Richard blinked and recalled for a moment, the images of that day flashed through his mind:
At that time, he and Rommel were talking about the details of the battle half a month later, when a voice suddenly sounded from deep in the forest, interrupting the conversation.
Then, accompanied by a gust of smelly wind, a humanoid creature more than two meters tall, half human and half beast, rushed out. The other person has a face like a human and is wearing clothes, but his arms and shoulders have thick gray hair, similar to that of a bear. His feet are even more naked, and his nails are as sharp as tigers.
The opponent kept shouting "Jurgen" and launched an angry attack on Rommel.
After that, Rommel slapped the opponent on the head with a crisp palm, killing the opponent instantly.
From there, he deeply realized how strong Rommel was. Even if he used all his methods in the fight half a month later, he only injured Rommel, so he didn't feel much surprise.
After the fight, Rommel once said, "Unless the body is completely destroyed in an instant, even if only a heart and a drop of blood are left, it can be resurrected." He had no doubt about this.
After the memory was over, Richard looked at Rommel and said, "Well, I remember the other person called 'Jurgen'."
"Then do you know why the other party called 'Jurgen'?" Rommel asked again.
"This-" Richard hesitated. Although there was countless knowledge hidden deep in his mind, this question was not within the scope of the answer. After all, he had never seen that weird creature before, so how could he know why it called 'Jurgen'.
"Is it a fixed sound that expresses emotions, like a dog's or a cat's meow?" Richard looked at Rommel and finally gave a guessed answer.
"No." Rommel shook his head slightly and answered, "Actually, 'Jurgen' is my name."
Richard's eyes couldn't help but widen a bit.
"A little surprised, right?" Rommel smiled, with a bit of bitterness in his smile.
"So, does the other party know you, the supervisor? The other party is an intelligent creature, or a... person?" Richard asked.
"To be precise, the other person is my teacher." Rommel said.
Richard's mouth couldn't help but grow bigger.
"My full name is Rommel Jurgen." Rommel said slowly, "I was not a member of the Truth Society from the beginning, nor did I work for the Truth Society from the beginning. In the beginning, I was another Apprentice of the Wizarding Organization—Natural Balance School.
The Natural Balance School has a very ancient inheritance, advocating nature and wildness, and likes to tap into the deepest power of biological life and transform itself. When you saw my teacher's appearance, it was a branch of transformation. If there were no accidents, I would also be like this, turning into a combination of many beasts, even weirder and stronger than my teacher.
However, before it became like this, many years ago, a camp of the Natural Balance School was attacked by the Truth Society. Since then, I have had contact with the Truth Society. At first, I hated the Society of Truth, and as I grew up, I hunted its members. The biggest achievement is that I once paid the price of being seriously injured and nearly dying to get this. "
As he spoke, Rommel touched the item on his finger.
"Ring?" Richard raised his eyebrows.
Rommel chuckled and said: "Yes, don't be surprised, I snatched this gold ring. As for the fate of its original owner, you should have thought of it - dead. In fact, it is not accurate to say dead, after all, his memory backup It still exists in the resurrection room of the headquarters. But considering the massive resources required for resurrection and the fact that it cannot grow again, it is almost the same as death."
Richard looked at Rommel and was really surprised. He really didn't expect Rommel to have such a past. He subconsciously asked: "What happened next?"
"What happened later?" Rommel said, "Then it's a long story. To make a long story short, after killing a golden ring supervisor of the Society of Truth, some time passed and I met the supervisor, Lord Foehn.
For me at the time, it was an irresistible force, so I was defeated without any surprise. However, Lord Foehn did not kill me. Instead, he took me to the headquarters of the Truth Society. While curing me, he allowed me to see the bigger world. Since then, I have become a new gold ringer until now. "
Rommel was quiet for a few seconds, as if giving Richard time to consume the information, then waved his hand and said: "Look, I have killed the supervisor of the Golden Ring without any problem, so what problem can you have? Is it possible for you? Killed the Color Ring Manager? So, as long as you join the Truth Society sincerely, there may be some twists and turns, but in the end you will be safe.
I believe in my vision, just like Lord Foehn Feng believed in his vision before. I killed the weakest gold ring of the Truth Society, but gave the strongest gold ring to the Truth Society. And you... No matter what you have done before, I believe that your contribution to the Truth Society in the future will be far greater than the loss caused to the Truth Society. "
"But how can I prove that I sincerely join the Truth Society?" Richard thought for a while and asked a key question, "It's impossible for me to just say it and be recognized, right? In that case, I should have been recognized long ago."
"Of course not." Rommel shook his head. "There is only one way to prove that you sincerely join the Truth Society, and that is to let your soul experience true light."
"Um?"
Rommel explained: "To be specific, it is to let go of your defenses and let your soul be baptized by the light of the true God. You can think of it as a kind of magic. In the process, you will connect with the true God and gain more knowledge about the truth. , get a special gift and leave an immortal mark on your soul.
After the experience, your personality will undergo some slight changes, but don't worry, you are still you, you just have a deeper understanding of the world. In this way, you can be regarded as a true core member of the Truth Society and have the qualifications to become a high-level member of the Truth Society. At the same time, you will have an unchangeable loyalty to the true God, so that Chekhov's questioning of you can be completely ignored. "
After listening to this, Richard asked seriously after a while: "Am I really still me? If after this experience, I have unchangeable loyalty to the true God, wouldn't this be considered a shackles?"
"It depends on how you look at it." Rommel said softly, "In my eyes, this is more like you have understood a truth, like one plus one equals two, which is completely impossible to violate. You know , then you will no longer deny it and will always think that one plus one equals two is right. The same is true for true God. When you come into contact with His light, you will be sure that He is a truth that is more impossible to violate than one plus one equals two. , you will naturally believe and be loyal to Him.
Richard was silent for a long time. I wanted to say something, but I pursed my lips and didn't say anything in the end.
Rommel looked at it, but did not force it. He sighed softly and said: "Your reaction is not what I expected. It is true that you are hesitant. After all, you have always been very attached to your inherent ideas. Therefore, in order to Persist in your research and do not hesitate to fight with me. That is why I am optimistic about you.
But... the matter of true gods is still somewhat different from research. I appreciate you, but I can't make changes for you. I can give you some time to think about it, and I hope you can give me an answer in the early morning three days later, before I reply to Chekhov. If you choose the light, then you are my successor. but you… "
Rommel did not continue, but paused and said: "Okay, there is no but. I don't want to have a but, and I don't want you to choose a but. So, within three days, I want you to give me the only answer, that's it."
After saying this, Rommel took steps and walked towards the town of Pompeii.
After walking a few dozen meters, a voice came: "Wizard Richard, you have to be clear: I have always been very optimistic about you, and I hope you will not disappoint my expectations of you. I can guarantee that as long as you are willing to break through yourself and take this step The most important step is that you will never regret it.”
Under the night, Rommel walked farther and farther...
