Law of the Devil

Chapter 90: The Rejected Transaction

"Now I understand why the temple has sent such a powerful lineup to hunt you down." Du Wei smiled wryly.

Two strongest knight commanders, a large number of high-level knights, and the judge... Such a lineup can be called the strongest lineup dispatched by the temple in the past century.

And the reason is that the secret that Hussein discovered is really amazing!

Who in the Roland Empire does not respect the great founding emperor? Who doesn't respect those founding heroes in history? Even now in the imperial palace of the imperial capital, in the living room of His Majesty the Emperor, there is a portrait of Aragorn Roland and his mysterious huge oil painting of the powerful Saint Laurent Knights.

Even, in the era when the Luo Lin family, where Du Wei was located, rose hundreds of years ago, the Roland Empire encountered the greatest crisis since the founding of the country, and the empire was once in a desperate situation. The emperors at that time had publicly issued something like "If I can be like If His Majesty Aragorn Roland, the ancestor, has a knight order like Saint Laurent in his hand, he will definitely not let the empire sink to such a state!"

If it spreads out, it will be known that the temple is actually doing such a terrible thing behind the scenes: It has been secretly cursing the souls of His Majesty the founding emperor and the heroes and heroes of the founding of the country for hundreds of years!

If such a thing is spread... it will arouse the anger of the royal family and the anger of the people of the empire, and I am afraid that the prestige of the temple for hundreds of years will be wiped out in an instant!

Under such circumstances, how could Hussein not die? He must die! Must die! ! Must die! ! ! That's what it means to kill people.

"But now, I'm telling you the secret." Hussein sneered.

Dewey's speech.

He couldn't help sighing: Curiosity kills people.

Even the most talented knights, who are proud of the holy knights that he has cultivated for many years and have high hopes for, can bear the heart to kill them quickly... Isn't it just to cover up this secret? What about yourself? I am a small nobleman, even if the Luo Lin family is deeply rooted in the empire...then the temple will definitely kill Du Wei!

This kind of secret. Knowing it is tantamount to courting death.

"Now, do you still want to listen?" Hussein's voice was mocking, and he could see the change in Du Wei's face.

Du Wei smiled bitterly: "Is there any chance for me to turn back? Please, I have been with you in this forest for so many days. If the temple finds out, I will definitely be the top three on the blacklist! You say or Don't talk about it, the result is the same. Anyway, we have already started, so we might as well continue talking."

There was a hint of appreciation on Hussein's face, but his tone was still indifferent: "You like to make trouble yourself, it's not me who is hurting you."

Afterwards, Hussein sighed and looked up at the sky: "The badge of Aragon..."

Aragorn is not only a powerful knight, but also a great magician.

There is a magic circle hidden on the badge he left behind, and this magic circle left an afterimage message of himself. Hussein entered the inner hall that night, saw those cursed badges, and at the same time, got Aragorn himself left a message.

How did the founding emperor of the Roland Empire die? Hussein couldn't answer this question, because Aragorn himself didn't mention it in his message... This is a very simple reason: when Aragorn himself left a message, he was of course still alive. How can a living person speak out about himself? How did you die?

However, the message hinted at a very important message, that is: when the founding emperor was still in power, at that time, the relationship between His Majesty Aragorn and the temple was already very, very tense...it was almost to the point of incompatibility!

It's easy to understand.

There is no doubt that Aragorn is a heroic figure with great talent and boldness, a generation of heroes. Such people are usually extremely intelligent and have a strong desire for power. He can start from a poor nobleman, and then fight north and south, tearing apart The unification of the mainland and the establishment of a huge empire that has never been seen in history, such a great cause. It can be said that there is no one before or after.

When such a super powerful figure unified the continent and leveled the world. When he was ready to hold the power, and he drew his sword and looked around, thinking that there was no opponent who could contend with him... suddenly found that there was a temple beside him exist!

How can a character like him allow such a thing? !

What is a temple? The temple is a religion, a belief! It is the endorsement organization of the supreme god in the world! It represents the will of the gods, the will of the great gods! It is equivalent to another... emperor who has extensive influence and authority on the entire continent!

Moreover, such influence and authority are not abstract, but actually exist! Aragorn received strong support from the temple in the war to unify the continent. In order to win over the temple, he even joined the temple and became a holy knight. The continent was unified, and Aragorn established an empire relying on the power of the temple. At the same time, The temple also rests on the Aragonese subway hooves

, Sprinkle the brilliance of the gods all over the entire continent!

Finally, according to the earliest agreement between the two parties: the temple not only has its own armed forces (holy knights), but also has the right to tax!

With force, with taxes. This is almost equivalent to establishing a country within a country within the Roland Empire! The people of the entire empire inevitably have double identities: on the one hand, they are the subjects of the Roland Empire, and on the other hand, they are the believers of the temple.

These make the temple have the capital enough to challenge the imperial power of the empire.

(Regarding this point, Du Wei thought of the emperor of the Roman Empire who was forced to cooperate with Christianity in order to integrate the empire in his previous life. As a result, the power of that emperor was stabilized, and at the same time, Christianity was fully developed. Author's note: Regarding this point, friends who are interested can refer to the history of the rise of Christianity, or some information will be posted in the works of this book in the near future)

Aragorn is a smart person, he quickly saw the danger of this situation, or he had anticipated this situation a long time ago. But he refrained from speaking out before, because the war to unify the continent required the help of the temple. But the empire After it was established, he couldn't tolerate another existence within the empire that could challenge the imperial power!

As a result, the conflict between the royal family of the Roland Empire and the temple was on the verge of breaking out!

"By the side of the couch, how can you allow others to sleep soundly?!"

After Du Wei thought about it, that was probably what the great founding emperor thought at the time.

What's more, Du Wei knows that His Majesty Aragorn is a believer of the devil!

The various processes of the struggle back then. It must have been bloody, it must have been dark, it must have been intense...but I don’t know anything about it now. The only known result is: the great Aragorn obviously failed.

Because the temple has existed until today, and it is still faintly fighting against the imperial power.

However, Aragorn himself was secretly punished by the temple, and suffered from the secret curse of the temple for nearly a thousand years, and his soul could not rest in peace.

How did Aragorn die? Du Wei didn't know, but he guessed that most of them died in a dishonorable way, or a little bit shamelessly.

Such a powerful person, a strong man with the top strength of the mainland... Even if the temple hates it to the bone. It is definitely an extremely difficult thing to kill him.

Poison? Assassination? murder?

God knows.

And... to kill such a strong person...

Du Wei doesn't think there is anyone else in this world who can do it! That is the number one powerhouse under the starry sky! ! Who else could be stronger than him?

unless……

Du Wei shivered!

Could it be that the gods shot? The gods killed Aragorn? !

There is nothing impossible. Du Wei, who has been to Alcatraz, thinks this possibility is very, very high.

"The magic circle left by that person is about three important messages." Hussein said: "The first one, he told me that only people who have the blood of the thirteen members of the Saint Laurent Knights can trigger this The magic circle resonated and opened. And I am a descendant of the blood of members of the Saint Laurent Knights."

This is another surprising news.

Hussein has the blood of members of the Saint Laurent Knights, he is a descendant of members of the Saint Laurent Knights!

"I never knew this myself." Hussein smiled wryly: "My ancestors are a family of nobles who have never landed, and it is said that they were once brilliant in the founding war of the Empire. It has declined. And in my generation, it is almost extinct... You should understand how strict the temple is when selecting holy knights. In order to worry about the penetration of the imperial power into the temple, the temple has always been different from any noble family. The children of the holy knights who enter the temple will only select some poor children. As long as I can remember, my family was very poor. I never thought... my ancestors would have such brilliant achievements... Oh my god, The Knights of Saint Laurent...the most mysterious and powerful heroes in the history of the founding of the empire. You can't imagine how shocked I was when I saw the shadow of Aragorn in the magic circle telling me these things that day!"

"I can imagine." Du Wei smiled wryly. He interrupted the knight who was obsessed with memories, and asked cautiously: "Okay, this is the first message. What are the next two messages?"

"The second one is related to you now." Hussein smiled maliciously: "Do you still remember this set of movements I taught you? As I said, this is the basis of practicing a certain kind of magical fighting spirit Partly, this miraculous fighting spirit is the second message in Aragorn's message... Back then, Aragorn himself relied on the strongest martial skill that swept away the strong in the mainland and became the king of knights: starry sky fighting spirit!"

Du Wei swallowed hard and said, "Did he teach it to you?"

"Yes." Hussein blinked: "Now, you have learned the basics. After you have practiced to a certain level, I can consider teaching you the latter part."

Du Wei was silent for a long time before digesting the news, and then he sighed: "Where is the last message? What is the last message?"

"The last one... is to guide me to find my companion."

When Hussein said this, he suddenly revealed a bitter expression: "Looking for other descendants of Aragorn."

Other heirs?

Du Wei can imagine that Aragorn left his powerful martial arts in the knight badge and passed them on to Hussein, who is a descendant of the thirteen Saint Laurent knights.

Then...don't forget, Aragorn still has unrivaled magic power!

Du Wei opened his mouth: "Could it be..."

Just then, a sigh came from the woods.

From behind the big tree, he slowly walked around a figure, and he just walked on the snow calmly, stepping on the soft snow without leaving a trace.

His beard is grizzled, the hat on his head is pointed, but the white mage robe on his body is full of stains, and some parts are even faintly burnt. There are two big holes in the two parts under his ribs. Looking at his embarrassed appearance, it is obvious that he has experienced a fierce battle.

Teacher Weiwei Andi hijacked the old magician Du Wei all the way. At this moment, he walked out of the woods. I don't know how long he has been here. I don't know how much he has listened. A kind of bitter thing, as he walked, he smiled bitterly in a low voice: "

"It's me. The heir who has inherited part of Aragon's magical strength, that's me."

"That's right, it's the old man." Hussein glanced at the old magician, as if he wasn't surprised at his sudden arrival, and said coldly, "He is my companion. But if it wasn't for him, I wouldn't It will be so miserable!"

The old magician was a bit haggard. He walked quietly to the two of them, looked at Medusa who was standing in the distance with her eyes closed and enjoying the sunshine, and shook her head: "You guys are making too much trouble, alas...Queen Medusa! It's actually Queen Medusa! Everything is exactly as predicted."

Du Wei immediately caught the words of the old magician: "Prophecy?"

The old magician ignored Du Wei's question. He walked up to Medusa, looked at the beautiful snake carefully for a while, and then slightly bowed: "Dear Queen Medusa, I would like to extend my sincere respect to you." say hello."

Medusa's calm expression did not show any waves: "You have been here for a long time and eavesdropped for a long time... Do human beings like to do this kind of thing? Or... Is this also a kind of human nature?"

The old magician froze for a moment, but he quickly returned to normal: "Human beings are much more complicated than you imagine."

Du Wei frowned: "You don't seem surprised to see Queen Medusa. Did you cast some magic on us? Or have you been spying on us all this time?"

"My dear children. I'm not as evil as you said." The old magician smiled bitterly: "If I'm not lucky, I'm afraid I won't be able to come to see you alive. Oh. Regarding your matter, I was in the forest On the other side, I met your friend Dardanelle. He told me everything."

Hussein seemed to have no patience for this kind of greeting, he glared at the old magician: "Old man, you came too late. Where have you been these past few days? Could it be that some high-ranking knights and magicians , already made it impossible for you to handle it?"

The old magician didn't care about the knight's stinky face at all, and his tone was very serious: "Yes, I almost won't come back... You should understand that the temple wants to kill you soon. They... have already photographed the elder People from the group! I met several high-level knights, and tried to lure them away, but soon, several high-level mages from the elder group appeared. If I hadn't hidden well, they would have almost discovered me whereabouts and identity.”

"The elders are also dispatched..." Hussein sneered twice, but the muscles in the corners of his eyes were beating, and his laughter was not so natural.

"Your life is very valuable now." The old magician smiled and said, "I overheard their conversation. The temple has officially announced your traitor status two days ago. The crime is: attempting to assassinate the pope and killing The two great knight commanders. The Pope has personally promulgated the decree of the temple, and you have become the most wanted criminal in the entire continent."

The knight snorted coldly.

"Hussein, I know you are a proud guy. You are not afraid of becoming the most wanted criminal in the mainland. But you must also understand that those old and immortal guys in the elders group are not easy to deal with!" Old Magic The master said, shaking his mage robe lightly: "Look, I met three guys, and I was almost killed by their teamwork."

"You cherish your feathers and don't dare to reveal your true identity." Hussein said coldly: "I don't believe that just three guys from the elders group can kill you, an old man. If you fight the enemy with all your strength If you don’t, even if you lose, you can still escape.”

"My identity is still useful to us. I can't openly be an enemy of the temple yet, otherwise, it will be an endless pursuit." The old magician shook his head: "You need a companion who hides in the dark."

Du Wei was not happy.

He coughed a few times suddenly, and after attracting everyone's attention, Du Wei looked unhappy, and then looked at the two guys in front of him:

"Okay! Both of you are the top powerhouses in the mainland! One is the number one knight in the mainland! The other is a top magician! Both of you are descendants of Aragorn... You want to make enemies of the temple! You

To inherit Aragorn's last wish... you must do great things! But..." Du Wei narrowed his eyes: "But what the hell does this have to do with me! ! What are you going to do, just do it! I am not a powerful knight, nor a powerful magician! I'm just a little nobleman, a little nobleman who usually likes to mess around with little things! Why did you drag me into this? Especially you, don't you..."

Speaking of this, Du Wei suddenly remembered the scene where the old magician used that miraculous magic to slap himself. The original sentence "Immortal" came to his lips, and he quickly changed his words: "Old... You! Why did you hijack me all the way to this ghostly place? This place can freeze people's noses off the ground? You want me to go all the way north... What use am I to you?!"

silence……

After a while, Hussein also coughed, and the knight looked at the old magician with cold eyes: "This is what I want to ask too. Old man, you want me to take this little guy on the road, and you want me to protect you?" Looking at him, why?!"

The eyes of the old magician flickered. He suddenly took off his pointed hat gently, revealing his messy white hair. He tidied his hair, then poured the snow from the hat, and sighed: "Okay, I think it's time to answer the question."

As he said that, the old magician looked at Hussein, and then at Du Wei: "Little friend, Hussein doesn't even know about this. It's about where Aragorn's power comes from. Others Don't know. But you do, don't you? Because you've been on Alcatraz. Seen that old Chris, right?"

As he said that, the old magician raised his hand suddenly, and shot out a wind blade from his palm. The speed of the wind blade was extremely fast, and before Du Wei came back to his senses, it cut off Du Wei with a thud. The hat on Wei's head also cut the rope that tied his hair!

Du Wei let out a low cry, his hair fell into a mess, and the "devil's horn" that Chris had made for him that had been hiding in his hair was exposed to everyone's eyes!

Hussein glanced at it, and couldn't help but moved: "What is this...you, you have horns on your head?! Are you not a human being?"

Du Wei gave the old magician a hard look, and said angrily, "Of course I'm human! As for this horn... well, it's just a thing to enhance my magic sense. With it, I to use magic."

The old magician looked at Du Wei with a smile, he didn't care about his angry eyes, and smiled softly: "Okay, my little friend, now, tell Hussein what you heard about Aragorn on Alcatraz Island I never told him about it, and he doesn't even know as much about it as you do."

There is really nothing too complicated about the things on Alcatraz Island. To put it simply, there is a demonic servant, a powerful and terrifying old guy, who is good at making deals with the humans on the island.

And Aragorn is one of the traders. Aragorn's powerful abilities can almost be regarded as trading with the servants of the devil.

Du Wei originally had a good eloquence and personal experience, so he naturally told the story in an extremely thrilling, exciting, twisting and moving way.

Hussein was almost stunned! This is naturally a great shock to the knights!

The old magician had already guessed the knight's reaction. After Du Wei finished speaking, he immediately said, "Actually, I have also been to that island. I have seen old Chris..."

"Wait!" Du Wei frowned, doubts flickering in his eyes: "Old...you are lying! When I met Chris, he told me that before me, the last human being who traded with him was Aragorn!! After Aragorn, no one has traded with him!"

"That's right, what he said is absolutely right." The old magician smiled and said, "I did go to that island, and I met that bastard old Chris...he was indeed a bastard, but he was a cuter Just a bastard. I offered to make a deal with him... but he refused."

"Why?" Du Wei asked in a deep voice: "He is even willing to trade with a lowly boy like me, why reject you? Reject a powerful magician?"

"Because..." The old magician smiled: "He refused to give me what I asked for."

"What do you want?" Du Wei suddenly felt his heart beat faster! He has thought of it!

He guessed what the old magician asked for!

"I asked him..." The old magician was smiling, but his smile was very strange, and his voice was low, with an indescribable smell...

"...I ask him to return the heart of His Majesty Aragorn! Return the heart of the king!".
