The golden flames in his eyes split into layers of flame patterns, like flowing lava. She squeezed a few words from her throat: "What are you talking about?"
"Because of this." Brando raised his hand, and a crystal traversed a beautiful arc, hitting the ground with a crisp sound, and then Gu Lulu rolled to Bai's feet. Bai hesitated for a moment before he leaned over to pick up the thing. It was a dark crystal with no brilliance, and it exuded a cold breath in her hand. The color at its center was removed, revealing an ugly piece. Come blank.
Bai observed carefully for a while, and finally realized that this crystal was one of the culprits who had previously conspired against herself, and her brows wrinkled deeply. "This is the soul crystal?"
"This is the soul crystal." Brando replied: "It used to store a spell in it, called a soul spike, which is a dark magic."
"What does this have to do with me?"
Brando raised his head and looked at the empty round hall. The towering vault is engraved with thorns, bright and dark, and gargoyles stand gloomily on stone pillars. It is said that the top of each stone pillar will be engraved with prayers such as'Atsh s von' (the glory of the kings), praising the Lord of glory. , Perkin, the sun god—architecture can show the time accumulated by the era it should belong to. This hall is filled with hundreds of years of history. "It really shouldn't matter." He said: "But how can a believer in the sun god use black magic to hide such evil things in its sanctuary?"
There was a thoughtful look in her white eyes, and she saw Bai Jia coming out behind Brando. Bai Jia smiled at her courteously, and accepted Brando's words in a gentle tone: "Sir Lawson was a true believer in his lifetime. He is an upright and noble knight, but he also has his own story. Many people Perhaps I don’t believe that this upright knight has never been disconnected from the term cultist in his entire life, but this is a fact. He was also exiled because of this taint, and he was not allowed to return to his homeland and family. The secret buried, outsiders thought that the jazz was tired of fighting for power and ran away. The family from which he was born would naturally do everything possible to conceal the truth that humiliated the family. Therefore, the real history is forgotten day by day. Just like this hall, all the past dust is sealed under the dust. But history is silent, time will tell everything, no matter how deep the secret is buried, there are times when the sky is inadvertently reappeared."
"A long time later, a ranger named Cui Cui found a diary in the ruins of a castle in Granu. He opened the diary with crimson sheepskin as the cover, and wrote on the first page of the diary in beautiful words. Given the name of the owner of this diary, she is called Grace Petty. Her true identity is Luo Ruisen's wife before her death. She is a shepherd."
She stopped here when she said that, and did not intend to continue. Brando went on to say: "I was thinking about such a problem before, no matter how the tide of magic roars and makes waves on the sea, how can Perkin tolerate so many undeads in his sanctuary? ? But when I saw this rotunda, I understood that this hall is not Perkin’s Hall of Prayer, but a holy cellar. Perkin’s followers used to seal evil monsters in the underground altar. . So the reason why the undead exist here is so simple, because they have existed here a long time ago—"
"Even so, it doesn't explain much."
"It's true, but the problem is that you showed your tail yourself. Don't forget that you used the magic of enlightenment on Lorison."
"It's not surprising," Bai said coldly, "I am the dark lord of Madara. It is normal to search for powerful undead as his subordinates."
"Then you can command the undead, why bother to turn on wisdom for Luo Ruisen."
"That's because the high-level undead with wisdom are stronger."
Brando shook his head. "In theory, this is the case, but Lorisson’s undead still retains the heart of a saint. It is a true saint’s soul. Even if it wakes up and is controlled by the powerful magic power of spiritual enlightenment and cannot attack you, it will choose to self-destruct. , What you can get is not a powerful entourage, but a pile of dry bones. Scrolls of Spiritual Enlightenment are very valuable, and the Madara Empire is not strong enough to squander it at will. The reason you dare to do this is because You need Luo Ruisen to restore his memories. Only as the designer and builder of this holy cellar can it be qualified to provide you with what you want—that is, the way to unlock the seal of this holy cellar and release Grace Pey Di's soul."
"I almost want to admire your wonderful hypothesis, human beings. I didn’t expect you to know the saints and the undead. Your understanding of the world of the dead is deeper than I thought. I’m very curious. You are only about twenty years old. Age, what prompted you to understand the secrets of the dead? If you say you are a wizard who specializes in necromantic and dark magic, I believe, but you are just a swordsman, or the youngest swordsman in this thousand years "Bai said indifferently: "Unfortunately, hypothesis is after all hypothesis. It may have many coincidence similarities with reality, but after all, it is just a subjective speculation. You still don't have any evidence to support everything you say."
"Human aristocrats convict people, when do they need evidence," Andrrig said suddenly, very impatiently: "In my opinion, these are all nonsense. You can't resist anyway. This human wants you to be hanged. It’s a one-sentence matter whether you want to sleep or go to bed. Why do you waste your time so hypocritically. So your understanding of humans is nothing more than that, far inferior to me."
Brando was almost choked to death by this sentence. I really don't know if this sentence is boasting or taking the opportunity to speak ill of herself, but the vampire princess looks serious and seems to take her words deeply. But Bai smiled and sneered: "Others may do this, but I know your lord will not."
Brando knew that this was intentionally stimulating himself, but he didn't care. He shook his head: "I have reservations about your opinion. Under certain circumstances, I don't care about the means, otherwise I would never listen to a cultist like you say a little more. Right now, I am not going to bring myself down to the same level as you. If I say that you are a tree shepherd, there will naturally be accurate evidence. After all, this evidence is actually handed over to me by you yourself."
Bai's face was a bit ugly, anyone who was described as vulgar and vulgar would feel angry, let alone someone so proud of her, but she wasn't angry yet, she was just a little dissatisfied at best.
Brando continued: "Miss Tiamas, do you remember what you said to me before?"
"This question sounds familiar," Bai replied, "and my answer is similar. I have said a lot to you. I wonder which one did you ask?"
"That sentence is not important in itself, but you mentioned Amman when I took out the Demon Slayer Cone."
Bai changed his face. "So what? Speaking of killing the high-ranking priests in the temple, you still dare to appear in the empire grandiosely. It's really bold."
"Why go around again, Miss Tiamas, since I mentioned this name, you should understand. I already know another identity of Amman. He is a high-ranking member of the All Things One Society. I dare say that this world knows it at the same time. This person’s dual identities will not exceed ten people, and this will include me. But you can call out his name in the first place, which shows that you knew that he died in the ring of trade winds, and that he was in What does the ring of trade wind do."
Madara's black knight's face sank like water. "That idiot!" she cursed in a low voice, and readily admitted everything Brando had assumed. Her pride does not allow her to continue to deny, because she understands that it is meaningless, some things can be said to be coincidences, but coincidences cannot explain all the problems after all. Bai looked at Brando with golden eyes, and asked curiously: "I have another question and I am a little curious, Amman is a member of the One Society of All Things, why do you insist that I am a tree shepherd or one of the twelve patriarchs. "
Brando hesitated and replied: "In fact, the reason is relatively simple. It is because the One Society will not accept the undead. The members of the One Society have always looked down on the undead and spiritism, thinking that they were only bewitched by the magic of darkness. The fallen trail, they are pursuing chaotic truth, true eternity, and it is by no means comparable to the bones of Madara. The state of Shi Amman makes me suspicious, although that only means that it is secretly practicing the undead. Forbidden technique, transforming myself into undead before dying, but it is enough to attract my attention. Later I always thought that Amman went to the ring of trade winds for the inheritance of the dark dragon, until you called out his name before, It suddenly dawned on me to understand one thing. His purpose is the same as that of Andesa. He went for the blood of the gods on the dragon of darkness, which is the blood of the descendants of the true gods, and the trash gods you cultivated. Blood is never the same."
Brando did not say one more thing, that is, he has personally experienced it, and definitely has a say in it better than everyone else. As for why Bai is the patriarch, that’s another story. A person can hide a secret for a while, but it is difficult to conceal a lifetime. In fact, in "Amber Sword", many players suspect that Bai is the tree shepherd. It is Juka, the god of death among the twelve patriarchs, the patriarch who controls the power of life and death. Although Bai, as the black knight of Madara, has shown her superb skills in the realm of the dead most of the time, everyone knows that, including her ability to manipulate people’s hearts, she has many cards that have never been revealed. As a solo Xia, the strength is at the end of the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse, but being able to keep this position is enough to explain a lot of problems.
So to say that Bai is the patriarch is only a tentative guess. This guess seems to have been confirmed right now. Brando can imagine that this title must also be inherited from the blood of the evil dragon. From this inherited name, you can know that, That is also a kind of God's blood.
Bai was completely silent. It was about a rare moment when her trump cards were completely exposed, which made her a little confused. She was silent for a while before slowly asking: "Since you already know my identity, I choose to cooperate with you. Set me free again?"
"Of course not." Brando replied frankly: "But you told me so much before, you just wanted me to make some trouble for Constance and that one, because'you' don't want to see civilization and order. Reunified under the name of an empire, only chaos can meet your aspirations. You are paving the way for the dragon of twilight, and everything will come together for a while. If so, why not hurry up, you want me to become the Maldos Empire A stumbling block to revival, why not expect me to do more."
Bai looked at him with a complicated expression: "Do you think you can contend with those two people? They are an incarnation of a dark dragon resurrected on this earth, the well-deserved master in the prophecy, and the other is Madara Thousand Years. The king who is here to wait, she will surely bring an era belonging to the dead moon. The two of them are the echo of the order of this era. This is the general trend of civilization. Except for dusk, no one can be an enemy. Don't you think you are too much Be arrogant, human."
"The more arrogant I am, the better for you." Brando replied.
"That's true."
"So if you want me to cause enough trouble for Constance, please tell me more in detail."
"Very well," Bai sneered: "What do you want to know?"
"I said, all."
"Well, you can breathe a sigh of relief for the time being, human. The Silver Queen hasn't planned to mobilize the undead in the Alkhash Mountains. She has no such ability for the time being, but in the eastern part of Metz, it has been a pastoral tree hundreds of years ago. People’s traditional sphere of influence hides a huge dark force here. Luo Ruisen is just a victim of the struggle between the dark forces and the church in the past 100 years. The relationship here is too complicated, so I won’t repeat them one by one, you It’s enough to know a little bit. There is not only one person like Lorison’s wife in this place. They have many identities, dark wizards, cultists, or other things. The church suddenly initiated a hundred years ago. The final result of the great cleansing was that our power here was uprooted, and everything was brought back to the ground for a while, but we did not let the temple please, after that, the disputes that lasted for decades and the three empires later We initiated the jihad between us." Bai said proudly. But the audience next to him felt cold behind his back. This dispute between light and darkness eventually caused blood to flow across the continent. Behind this was the ambition and revenge of a few people. Brando had secretly made up his mind. This woman and the tree shepherd must not be allowed to exist any longer.
Even if she might really have something to do with Medissa.
Bai may have seen his plan, or he may not have noticed it at all, but she didn’t care, and continued: “Going back to the great purge a hundred years ago, a small number of people were uprooted by the dark forces. Execution, but most of the people were secretly imprisoned or sealed, such as the Lord Roclair, who was caught and imprisoned at that time. The reason for this is complicated, but the main reason is that the dark forces have completely eroded the noble class of the empire. If this scar is to be completely lifted, the empire will not only become bruised and bruised, but may even die of blood loss. The result is that the church’s arbitrariness caused a backlash from the nobles. At that time, the empire was fighting over and under, and the truth and the lie were intertwined, leading to even worse. Few people really understand what happened in the empire during this period. In short, the final result is that the influence of the church has plummeted, and the imperial power has returned to the religious power under the support of the noble power."
Only then did Brando understand the truth behind the dispute between church power and kingship. Perhaps from that time on, the Cruz Empire began to inevitably go downhill, and everything will be unified before it can infiltrate the nobles and even the church unscrupulously. , Everything in this world must have its cause and result, and there can be no exceptions to everything.
"... In short, the final result is that most of the dark creatures are buried deep in the ground-together with the secrets of the nobles, like this holy cellar. And these people who are eroded by darkness, and those The saints who have fallen in the struggle are the group of people who are most likely to be transformed into undead by the dark magic after their death. The Silver Queen obviously knew this. I came here on the order of that person to retrieve the authority for her. "
"authority?"
Brando didn't quite understand the word.
