Shannon was silent for a while, then said slowly: "Because he dispatched the monsters under his command, and once killed the palace."
"Monster?" Angel looked at Shannon suspiciously.
"It was a terrifying humanoid monster, huge and tall enough to reach the top of this hall." Shannon continued to describe the monster's face, with a huge mouth like a crocodile, fangs turned inward, and gray skin that could be faintly seen. To the bruised blood vessels inside, there is no bridge of the nose and only five nostrils arranged neatly, its eyes are huge, but only one.
After listening to Shannon's narration, Angel seemed to have thought of something, and simulated a petite monster image on the desktop with illusion, which was almost the same as the appearance described by Shannon.
"Is this?" Angel asked.
Shannon was startled when he saw this phantom, but when Angel asked her, she realized that the other party seemed to be imitating the monster in some way.
"It's very similar, but the skin color looks a little darker than the adult's..." Shannon said after careful observation.
Angel showed a clear look and motioned Shannon to continue.
Shannon: "This monster came to the capital and attacked the palace. It was extremely ferocious, and could often rip out people's hearts with one paw, and then devoured it on the spot... That night, it killed almost one-tenth of the people in the palace."
When Angel heard that the monster liked to eat hearts, he was more convinced of its identity.
"This is a Gomito, and it is called a heart-eater by a popular name." Angle paused: "Usually, a heart-eater is not a thing in this world, but a summoned beast. However, they are relatively low-level, with insufficient IQ and good looks... So, they are either summoned by people with unique tastes, or there is no other choice, in short, it may be a wilderness wizard."
"Is it an official wizard?" Leon quickly asked.
"If it is an official wizard, can the Shannon royal family last for so long?" Angel said: "For example, Lord Eureka's shot, if you want to completely destroy the Goldfinch Empire, will not exceed a week. If you kill the royal family alone, Maybe a few minutes is enough."
This example of Angel made Shannon's back a chill, and he was even more afraid of the power of wizards.
"Since Shannon said that the heart eater's skin is very dark, then the other party summoned an old and frail heart eater. This kind of low-level summoning cannot be perfectly summoned, it is probably a first- and second-level apprentice. Let’s meet the standard.” After a pause, Angel said again: “It seems that extraordinary powers really intervene in this war. Moreover, he is still a low-level apprentice, who does not follow the default rules and acts recklessly, then I prefer The other party is a wilderness apprentice."
Angel finally gave a qualitative.
Although in Angel's words, the Heart Eater is a lowly summoned creature, but if it is faced with mortals, a Heart Eater can easily swept away a city of people.
Just the invulnerable skin of the Heart Eater is not something mortals can handle.
Just like General Mengen in Tan Hong Kong, his death form is also in line with the characteristics of a heart-eater. In a port where the army is stationed, a heart-eater can be like no one, not to mention the number of people is definitely less than the palace in the military port. .
Therefore, Angel was very curious: "Once the heart eater starts killing, it will never stop easily. Now there is no news of the death of the descendant in the Shannon royal family, that is to say, you kill the heart eater. Retired? How did you do it?"
Shannon was silent. After a long time, he said: "The royal family has a treasure that can protect and defeat the heart eater."
Leon said at this time: "If the royal family has such a treasure, are they still worried about Hailan's invasion?"
Shannon shook his head: "That treasure has strong restrictions, and only our Shannon family can operate it, and every operation will inevitably sacrifice one person. In order to kill the heart eater, the third brother has died, and the Shannon royal family has already There are few people, so using that treasure is not worth it. What’s more, the superhuman who is hidden behind him can continue to summon the Heart Eater. If we continue to consume it, our family will die and we will not be able to kill him.”
"So, we can only ask your lord." Shannon suddenly knelt down on one knee and gave a knightly salute: "Save our Gold Sparrow Empire that is about to collapse."
Angel still didn't answer, but was thinking about the treasure the other party said.
A treasure related to blood, and every time it is used, one person must be sacrificed? It sounds a bit strange. Having a blood connection means that when the other party refines treasures, they hope to pass it on. However, when using it, one person has to be sacrificed, which is not in line with the characteristics of blood connection.
It sounds contradictory. But Angel could see that Shannon was not lying. Could it be that the person who refined this treasure both loved and hated the Shannon family
Unable to figure out what kind of strange operation this was, Angel decided to put it aside for the time being, and looked at Shannon, who couldn't afford to kneel.
Instead of responding to Shannon's request, he asked:
"You just said that the Heart Eater came to attack the royal family, you haven't said yet, why did it come? How do you know that the Heart Eater is still standing behind me when I didn't say that the Heart Eater is a summoned thing? A supernatural being?"
Hearing Angel's question, Leon also reacted at this time: "Yes, why are you so sure that there must be an extraordinary person standing behind the heart eater? Could it be that that extraordinary person also contacted you?"
Shannon hesitated for a moment, but still told the truth: "Before the Heart Eater came, a letter appeared in my father's hand. The letter explained his purpose, and he asked us to hand over the treasure... Father tore it up directly. He was attacked by the Heart Eater next, and later Hailan counterattacked from various places, and many provincial generals were killed by the Heart Eater."
"It can be seen that there is an extraordinary person behind the Heart Eater, and he is in Hailan's camp. He may judge that the attack on the palace is not successful, so he simply helps Hailan, and uses the method of nibbling to make Jinque completely lose power."
Angel was not interested in the owner of the Heart Eater. What Shannon said most concerned him was...
"He wants you to hand over the treasure? What treasure, the one you killed the Heart Eater before?"
"It's not the scroll... the treasure, he wants something else."
Angel noticed that Shannon seemed to use a strange quantifier for the description of the previous treasure, but he did not explore it, but continued to ask what the so-called other treasure was.
Faced with this question, Shannon was not as straightforward as before: "This treasure is a secret. If the adults are willing to help us... I can tell the adults this secret."
As soon as this sentence came out, Angel had not answered yet, and Leon's expression became a little worried.
"Are you threatening?" Leon squinted, stepped forward and stood beside Shannon.
Leon's indifferent tone made Shannon's heart tremble, but what made Shannon feel the most uneasy was that Leon, who was standing beside her, exuded a strong sense of oppression, which seemed to be born from the blood. She had that terrifying fear when facing an invincible beast.
Angel also noticed the strange pressure on Leon. The pressure came from the pure flesh, even stronger than the pressure when he first saw Nausicaa.
"In the past few years, what kind of training did my brother go through? How did the physical strength increase so much?" Angel pondered silently in his heart.
In the face of Lyon's bullying and pressure, Shannon's voice trembled a little: "I'm not threatening, this is the bottom line my father gave me. I know it's unreasonable to want the wizard to help us in vain. The only thing the adults exchanged is the secret of that treasure."
When Leon wanted to say something, Angel interrupted him: "I want to know, is the secret of this treasure related to it?"
Angel pointed to the broken knight's sword on the table.
Shannon nodded without hesitation: "That's right."
Hearing this answer, Angel fell into thought, as if hesitating whether to agree to Shannon.
This made Leon feel a little curious. When he was discussing refugees with Angel, he could see that Angel didn't care about the outcome of the war between Jinque and Hailan. He didn't even want to get involved. As a brother who has lived together for more than ten years, Leon knows Angel's thoughts very well, and it is difficult to change what he has determined.
But why did the fragments of a knight's sword make Angel hesitate? It seems that there are plans to change the decision
"Does this knight sword have any secrets?" Leon couldn't help but ask.
"I don't know the specific secrets, but there are some details that I am very concerned about." Angel said vaguely.
Shannon has also been watching Angel, and now the only hope of the Shannon royal family is that there is an extraordinary person on their side, so that they can fight against the person who can summon monsters. Only in this way can this war end as soon as possible.
Therefore, Shannon couldn't be more anxious at this time, looking at Angel's eyes with expectation and pleading.
After a long while, in Shannon's excited eyes, Angel finally nodded.
"I can promise you, but I also have a request."
…
An hour later, Angel had already taken Shannon to Haiyue City in a flying boat.
According to Shannon, Hai Lan's army had already assembled in the waters a hundred miles away from the Vichy port, and the next target of the attack would definitely be Haiyue City.
According to the past offense and defense, the wizard apprentice who summoned the Heart Eater would definitely let the Heart Eater kill the generals of Haiyue City first. The high level collapsed and the army was in chaos. city.
This is also the reason why Hailan frequently wins battles. It is because of the appearance of the Heart Eater that the success rate of their "decapitation operation" has been greatly improved.
"According to the request of the adults, as long as the adults can solve the other party's extraordinary person, the rest will be handed over to us." Shannon said respectfully.
Angel nodded. Although he agreed to Shannon's request this time, he did not want to intervene in the war of mortals. First, slaughtering mortals was not what he wanted, even for Hailan's mortals. Second, it was a waste of time.
Therefore, his request is that he only solves the opponent's superhuman, and whether the war is won or not still needs the Gold Sparrow Army to fight for itself.
And the time he arranged for himself for this operation was two days.
