The boy did not lie.
But what is the Book of Truth
"very good."
It said, "Keep going!"
"What is the purpose of the man who came out of the gravekeeper?" Licinius asked again.
The Secret Keeper seemed to be lost in thought: "He wants to regain the body of the ancient demon."
Licinius was stunned.
The ancient demon clan masters black magic and powerful fighting capabilities.
The military advisor is obviously a weak black magician.
No wonder!
He thought for a moment and said again: "Anyone who reads the Book of Truth will die."
The Secret Keeper's body was shaking violently, and he was obviously getting excited.
Maybe after the next question, it will know what the Book of Truth is!
The empress looked at the young man deeply.
Obviously, she is far inferior to this guy in terms of forbidden knowledge.
"continue!"
The Secret Keeper was very excited.
Li Xini continued to ask: "Since that person wants to obtain the body of the ancient demon, what will he do?"
The keeper of the secret seemed to be very relaxed in answering this question, and said: "Of course it is extracted from those who retain the blood of the ancient demons. For example, the lion-men, vampires, ice wolves, night owls, and even you humans. Only when the huge blood and energy gather in one place can they be replenished through the ritual."
Li Xini's pupils suddenly contracted, and he had a bad feeling.
"battlefield?"
The empress made the first association.
"It's your turn, it's your turn!" the Secret Keeper said anxiously.
Licinius replied coldly: "The Book of Truth is from the ancient demon times."
Secret Keeper: "..."
What exactly is the Book of Truth
After three questions, he still doesn’t know!
He seemed to be going crazy!
"Lord Licinius."
The Empress suddenly said: "The fighting power of the ancient demons is very, very, very strong..."
She used the word "very" three times in a row, which was enough to show her fear.
"Your Majesty, don't be impatient."
Licinius looked at the corpse and asked bluntly, "Who was the last person who came to you to trade? What did you tell him? What did he want to do?"
The Secret Keeper was very principled. Even though he really wanted to know what the Book of Truth was, he still refused righteously, "Each person is limited to three times! You've already asked all the questions! And these are three questions!"
Licinius took half a step forward, almost reaching the face of the corpse.
"Look at me, son of a bitch!"
The Secret Keeper glanced curiously into his eyes.
boom!
At this moment, the boy's pupils seemed to be cracked into countless terrifying cracks.
It was like countless pairs of strange and evil eyes, staring silently.
The next moment, those slit-like pupils disappeared.
Instead, there was a mysterious and deep silhouette, as dead and decayed as a martyr.
Oh shit!
The Secret Keeper's coffin shook violently, as if it was in great fear.
"He, his name is Cyrus Via Salvatore, and the question he asked is also about the process of the descendants of the ancient demons completing themselves. He... also wants to become an ancient demon."
After answering these three questions, the Secret Keeper seemed to have exhausted his energy.
The green light in his pupils suddenly dimmed, and he was dying.
Even though it was about to fall asleep at any moment, it still held on to its last breath and looked at the young man.
Licinius nodded, gave it a reassuring look, and revealed three secrets in one breath: "The Book of Truth was originally in this tomb and was picked up by a group of tomb robbers. The Book of Truth is a book that records the truth."
Secret Keeper: "..."
The last time he was so speechless was the last time!
Chapter 101 Your Majesty, Be Prepared
The headquarters of the Loen Kingdom Army.
Duke Crazy Lion lay on the bed like a corpse. His injuries had been treated long before he returned to the camp. The scars all over his body had long since recovered and his breathing was heavy and steady.
Just one day passed, but he still didn't wake up.
The priests of the Kingdom of Loen were also helpless.
Outside the tent, the orc guards' respectful voices rang out: "Lord Augurola!"
With reserved footsteps, a loli girl with long cherry-colored hair walked into the tent.
Augurola had her hands behind her back, her Gothic black dress swaying with her steps. There was no expression on her childish and charming face. She glanced at the lion lying on the bed and narrowed her eyes.
For a moment, her ruby eyes grew more intense.
Blood immediately flowed from the corner of his eyes!
Memory peek!
The reason why the Mad Lion Duke couldn't wake up was because she had cast a forbidden spell on him, which imprisoned his spirit.
However, as a sixth-level warlock, the lion's mental strength is also very strong. Even though he has fallen into a deep sleep, it is still difficult to spy on all of his memories with ordinary means. If you are not careful, you may even suffer backlash. Not only will you not see anything, but your consciousness will also be impacted.
Therefore, Augurola could only be patient and take his time, coming to try every once in a while, and obtaining some valuable information by peeking into the lion's memory fragments.
Countless fragmented memory fragments flashed before her eyes like a torrent, accompanied by low whispers, echoing in her mind like a dream.
"Lord Crazy Lion, you must keep that owl in the Bernier Canyon at all costs."
"You mean, you want me to use the Hammer of God? But after using that magic, I may not be able to fight in the short term, and the command of the army may fall into the hands of Augurola. You also know that the Fourth Prince is her student, and she has always wanted to support the Fourth Prince to take the throne."
"It doesn't matter. I can certainly deal with her."
"What about the Brentanian Empire? If I lose my fighting power, what about Cyrus?"
"Heh, I just want him to see you use the Hammer of God!"
The last scene shows the lion nodding respectfully and turning away.
Augurola frowned despite the pain, and a hint of confusion gradually appeared in his bright red eyes.
"How could this happen? Did Crazy Lion do this on purpose? Given his personality, why would he be so respectful to this military advisor? Even if he is a descendant of the ancient demon clan, he shouldn't be like that."
Her intuition told her that there must be some unspeakable and shocking secret hidden in it.
Augurola hesitated for a moment, then flipped her white little hand and a blood-red gem appeared out of thin air in her palm.
"Xiao, there is something wrong with the military advisor and the mad lion. They were deliberately defeated by you in the Bernier Grand Canyon. It seems that their purpose was to lure Cyrus to do something, and they even wanted to deal with me..."
After injecting this ray of consciousness into the orb, she put it away with her backhand and walked out of the tent quickly.
Augurola claims to be powerful, but there is something weird about this matter, so one must be cautious.
"Lord Augurola?"
As soon as she walked out, she heard a soft voice.
Princess Nanali had been waiting outside the tent for a long time, with a quiet and sweet smile hidden in her eyes.
"your Highness?"
A hint of surprise appeared in Augurola's beautiful eyes, and she asked calmly, "What are you doing here?"
Princess Nunnally said gently, "The military advisor is waiting for you at the headquarters for a meeting."
Augurola clearly felt something was wrong. The orc soldiers on all sides tensed up at the same time, and their hands behind their backs unconsciously clenched their weapons.
She could even hear her heartbeat, which was accelerating like a war drum.
And the sound of blood flowing rapidly.
Snapped…
A drop of sweat rolled down someone's chin and fell onto the ground.
"interesting!"
o
o
Endless fog gushed out from the ruins of the ancient city of Hera.
The Queen rushed out of the thick fog and strode towards the command room. Holding the communication mirror in her hand, she asked, "Red Dragon, report the battle situation on the front line immediately. I want all of Cyrus's movements."
A moment later, Red Dragon's voice came from the communication mirror: "Your Majesty, according to the commander-in-chief's orders, I have led the troops to launch a full-scale attack on the Loen Kingdom's front. As for Cyrus and his Iron Legion... I ordered them to contain the enemy on the southwest front."
At the same time, countless sounds of fighting and shouting, accompanied by the roar of artillery fire, were heard through the communication mirror.
The empress was silent for a moment: "Did the spy you arranged for him observe anything unusual?"
"not at all."
The red dragon replied, "On the battlefield... I noticed that there was something wrong with the number of troops of the Loen Kingdom Army. It seemed to have dropped by more than half. I was worried that they had a conspiracy, so I didn't go in too deep."
The empress put down the communication mirror and her expression changed from gloomy to bright.
"Your Majesty, there must be something wrong with Cyrus, but he is not a fool. If he really wants to do something, it must be a thunderous attack, and your spies may not have time to pass on the news."
Li Xini said meaningfully: "Is the fighting power of the ancient demons really that strong?"
"In theory, it's very powerful."
The Empress' eyes were gloomy as she replied, "Moreover, none of us know what the military advisor's status was in ancient times. Was he an ordinary demon soldier? Or a demon general? If he was a demon duke in his lifetime and he recovered to his peak state, the consequences would be disastrous."
Licinius pondered for a second and said, "Then we must prepare for the worst, Your Majesty. I will inform Tria and the others now to help me prepare the captives and alchemical matrix. I will convey the exact news to you through divination, and you... must also be prepared."
The empress raised her eyebrows: "You want to use divination magic at this time? Don't forget that the people from the Holy See have already arrived at the ancient city of Hera. There is no guarantee that there won't be people from the Inquisition hiding among those priests."
Licinius certainly knew that the group of Vatican members were there to keep an eye on him.
The purpose is to observe whether there are any black magicians in Brentanya's army.
He smiled nonchalantly and said, "It's already this time, what is there to worry about? Besides, isn't the situation you are facing dangerous?"
The empress could not deny that the realization the young man had just mentioned meant that she might have to take action herself.
The first thing is to stop the military advisor from using blood sacrifice to complete himself.
Secondly, it is to prevent Cyrus from doing anything stupid.
This is something that only she can accomplish with her overwhelming fighting power.
"Okay, I will go to the southwest front myself."
She paused and said, "Sir Licinius, be careful. If there is any danger, use the ring."
Li Xini coughed dryly and said, "I understand, Your Majesty. You should also pay attention to your safety and don't let anything happen to you."
The empress took off her military cap, and her long, brilliant golden hair cascaded down like a waterfall. As the sunlight poured down from the sky, her dark golden eyes burned with a fiery glow.
As the sun rises...
