The high priest lowered his head and said in a low voice, "It's a mistake."
"I promised you at the beginning that as long as what you said is true, I owe you a favor." Angel paused and looked at the high priest: "If you have any requirements, you can ask me now, as long as I can do it."
Since he made a promise at the beginning, Angel did not intend to break his promise.
The high priest was silent for a long time, his thoughts turned back and forth, and finally turned into a deep sigh: "In the past thousand years, the people I feel most guilty of are my people. I don't know if my request can be fulfilled, but I have not The other way out."
"What do you want to say?" Angel looked at the high priest, who fell to the ground tremblingly.
The high priest made a long kowtow: "I hope the lord can save our family."
Although Angel had roughly guessed his thoughts before the high priest said it, when he really said it, Angel still didn't know how to react.
Save a family? This concept is too broad. He doesn't know what the high priest needs him to do. If the scope is extended to the entire Kura Kuka clan, with his current strength, it is absolutely unaffordable.
When the high priest saw that Angel was silent for a long time, he knew that it was impossible for him to save the whole family. He sighed in his heart and said the second sentence: "As long as the lord can guarantee that our family will not be wiped out. , I am very pleased.”
This sentence is the lowest limit in his mind.
"Actually, if you stay in the Garden of Living Souls, there is basically no disaster of extinction." Angel said calmly and directly.
The high priest shook his head: "Being shackled by others, after all, is a person under the people. I hope that the Kura Kuka family, even if there is only one branch, can have absolute freedom."
"Is this the change you seek?"
"Since the lord went to the Holy Fort, I have been thinking about it for a long time. Our family has fallen into a quagmire, and it is almost impossible to make a complete change. I have thought about it for a long time. It was us who made this choice at the beginning, and I was the only one left in that generation. I am alive, so I can only be responsible for it. I do not pursue comprehensive change, because it is slapped in the face. Therefore, even if there is only one branch, I am satisfied that it can have freedom."
Angel was silent. From the three Gao brothers traveling freely in the three worlds of the outer, middle, and inner worlds, it could actually be seen that the Kura Kuka people were not grounded. It is not impossible for them to leave the Garden of Living Souls, but they are really unwilling.
Therefore, the absolute freedom required by the high priest is actually from the root of the "blood", so that the Kura Kuka family can have an independent branch, and will not be affected by the magic energy array depicted by Xipolok, and can be free reproduce.
This requirement is actually not easy to achieve.
Angel turned to look at the shadow, and said, "Jami, Gao, Jiamiao, are they kept in the Sky Machine City?"
Shadow nodded: "Yes, the Kura Kuka family has a very strong micro-carving technique. My tutor values this technique very much, so he accepted the three of them. However, there is no official apprenticeship, but it is only under the name of my tutor."
"Then do you know the problem with their bloodline?"
"My mentor once said that the bloodlines of the three brothers were fettered by a certain cornerstone; I didn't understand it before, but now I probably know it. What the mentor said should be the magic circle depicted under Sipollock." Shadow sighed. , said to Angel: "The request made by this high priest does not seem difficult. But if you want to solve it, you must start with the magic energy array, but if you really move the magic energy array, it will definitely be affected. whole body."
Angel understands the shadow's words. Because no matter how far Kura Kuka traveled, after they died, their souls would still be attracted back by Sipolok's magic energy circle. This is the fetters connected in the blood, and it is impossible to achieve true freedom without cutting it.
"This requirement is really not easy to achieve, this old man just kicked his nose and face." Shadow cursed.
Angel replied, "Would you like it if the three Jamie brothers could be granted absolute freedom?"
The shadow was silent, and it took a long time for him to say: "Of course I do, but this is not a problem we can solve. This is the magic energy array arranged by the third-level true knowledge wizard. Now who can solve their blood relationship? shackles? Unless…”
"Isabel herself." The two of them thought of this at the same time.
Angel lowered his eyes and looked up at the high priest after a long while. The high priest was still kneeling on the ground. Most of his body was already rotten. He knelt on the ground for a long time. Not only was his arms shaking, but sweat was constantly seeping from his forehead.
"I..." After Angel uttered the first syllable, he paused for a long time before continuing: "I don't know if I can fulfill my promise, but give me a week and I will try it."
"If it doesn't work, when I return to the wizarding organization, I will ask my mentor. If he has a way, I will come back."
Angel didn't say anything to death, but there was still a glimmer of hope in the high priest's eyes. He has lived for thousands of years, and the people he is most worried about are his own people. If there is a tribe who can obtain absolute freedom, then he will at least feel at ease.
"Thank you, sir." The high priest's long forehead touched the ground, and a puddle of water was dizzy from where he kowtowed, and he didn't know if it was his sweat or tears.
After a while, the high priest stood up, wiped away the tears on his face, and bowed reverently: "Sir, you are back now, do you need to hold the ceremony now?"
Angel nodded: "In an hour, it will be in the Centennial Hall."
After the high priest listened, he quickly withdrew. The time was too fast, and he had to go back to the temple immediately to prepare everything.
After the high priest left, the shadow said: "Are you really going to find Isabel? If you make this request, not to mention whether she will agree. Once she agrees, she said that the opportunity and compensation for you will probably be the same. It's gone."
"I didn't expect anything in the first place. It doesn't matter if I have it or not." Angel's mentality was very relaxed: "What I'm most afraid of is that he doesn't ask for it. I can make this request immediately, even if it is difficult to achieve, I feel very good. At least, I can quickly clear the relationship between the two. "
Shadow pondered for a moment, and felt that Angel was right. The lifespan of a wizard is too long, and when he gets stronger and stronger, it will be more difficult to face human feelings. The request made by the high priest now is only to ensure that Kura Kuka is not extinct. Perhaps his request in the future is to protect the Kura Kuka clan, or simply propose to oppose Castle Black. At that time, the debt of favor will be even more difficult to repay.
The two chatted for a while, and there was a knock on the door outside the hall, and the priest asked to see him.
Angel glanced at the shadow: "I'll leave it to you."
After all, Angel concealed his figure. The shadows also hid, manipulating Fiona to face the selection priests.
With Shadow's puppet manipulation, Fiona's performance deceived all the priests, and ordered a few unimportant things with ambiguous words, and Shadow made Fiona go upstairs on the pretext of being unwell.
All knights and craftsmen were left in the hall and began to set up the selection venue.
An hour later, the knights and craftsmen left. A simple and exquisite stage that reveals ingenuity is set up in the open space of the hall.
Then, the high priest led a choir of nearly a hundred people into the hall.
The priests lined up and greeted the high priest with the largest ceremony.
At the same time, Fiona also walked down from the second floor, looking for a place to sit in a bored look. Glancing at the group of choirs, the girls all bowed their heads.
"High Priest, come here." Fiona stretched out her hand, and the transparent silk threads formed a bridge and fell in front of the High Priest.
The priests looked at each other in dismay, this was the first time this kind of opening. Moreover, in the past, the high priest had always stood on the top of the mountain temple to preside over the ceremony. I didn't expect to be greeted by the descendants today
The one who brought the high priest here was naturally the shadow.
As soon as the high priest took his seat, an illusion was placed in front of him. When he turned around, he found Angel and Shadow sitting beside him.
"A fantasy world that can confuse their eyes, they can't see the specific situation here." After explaining to the high priest, Angel said: "Where is the secret treasure you said can purify the soul?"
The high priest stretched out his hand, and streaks of white aura visible to the naked eye came out from his hand.
With the manifestation of the divine aura, a small object appeared in the hands of the high priest, the high priest gently tossed it, and the object became larger and larger, and when it finally floated into the air, it had reached its normal size.
"Can it be big or small?" Angel looked at the thing carefully, "At least it's an entry-level alchemy tool."
This is a black disc of unknown material.
From the outside, nothing special, and there is a thick coating on the disc, which hides a lot of patterns.
Angel wanted to reach out and touch it carefully, but the high priest said: "The secret treasure has the mark of Her Lady Queen. Except for me, anyone who touches it will be perceived by Her Lady Queen."
The so-called queen in his mouth is not Isabella, but her disciple Isabella. Now the ruler of Castle Black.
Isabella has a strange obsession with her mentor, not only changing her name, but also her name. However, the nickname "Queen Shenmu" was given to herself by Isabella after Isabel left the wizarding world, and it was suspected of taking advantage of Isabel.
Angel still withdrew his hand. Isabella was too crazy. If he came into contact with this treasure, she would return to Castle Black regardless. Who knows what will change.
Since it cannot be directly touched, it can only be observed with the naked eye.
There is no trace of magic patterns on the disc, it is estimated that it is "mixing alchemy". The materials can't be distinguished, and Angel didn't do much research on blending alchemy, so he couldn't study the reason for a while.
But Angel felt it carefully and found a subtle familiar fluctuation on the disc.
Very similar to the mysterious power he manipulated not long ago.
He looked at the shadow, and the shadow also looked thoughtful.
"It should be a mysterious thing, I feel a hint of mystery." Shadow said.
Angel hesitated for a while, and nodded: "It should be, but there is not much mysterious power. If according to what the high priest said, this is a prop that can be combined into one, then it may be the real mysterious thing after the combination. "
Today, the single half piece contains the same level of mysterious power as the revolver gun he just refined.
Since these half mysterious things can "purify the soul", then... Angel began to look forward to what kind of mysterious qualities the revolver he made would have.
