Tribulation of Mysteries - Chapter 1118

[Chapter 1115 New Gravekeeper]
“Put down the king!”
The remaining demon hunter guards rushed forward bravely.
Then, Yeager I seemed to see the old man in black robe snap his fingers: “Rotation ray!”
Dark green light flashed through, and the demon hunters began to fester halfway, turning into white skeletons. Fell beside him.
“What…are you?”
Yeager I looked at Maska, the corners of his eyes were torn and blood was flowing out.
“Mortal, you never know what a huge and glorious civilization you have offended…”
Maska Warlock smiled, and suddenly grabbed Yeager I, a gray light flashed in his eyes.
Yeager I’s expression instantly became confused.
Then, he heard Maska’s voice: “When you launched a rebellion and exterminated the Rogge royal family, was it your own decision, or was it the instruction of others?”
“It was…my own…decision!” King Yeager I answered solemnly. , like a puppet on strings.
“Where does your witcher transformation technology come from?”
“It comes from my bachelor group, the chief bachelor of which is Stryker!” Yeager I continued to answer.
“Tell me everything about your past…”
Maska was noncommittal and asked a few more questions.
Grand Duchess Penelope came to Masca at some unknown time: “Sir… the situation in the royal capital has been brought under control. I believe that the remaining nobles will understand the situation and help us exterminate Lankai. The Ste family!”
“This is a necessary warning!”
Maska pointed at Yeager I: “In three days, under the watchful eyes of everyone in the capital, execute him with the most brutal punishment… Let the world know the challenge. Our price.”
“Other than that…there’s nothing special about these demon hunters. They just have a slightly new idea for improving potions, but that’s all.”
Grand Duchess Penelope was momentarily moved.
The Misri family also has the technology to transform demon hunters.
It’s just that no one in the family takes it seriously, and the mortality rate is too high, which is a bit scary.
If there is an improved version, it would be good to use it to make cannon fodder.
This little thought seemed to be seen through by Maska Warlock, and he smiled: “You, the descendants of official warlocks, have a lot of cards in your family, either blood brands or alchemy weapons… but you didn’t show any of them. Are you waiting for me to take action?”
If any of these official warlock families had taken action, Yeager I would have been defeated long ago.
But they just looked at it, as if they were watching a circus clown perform.
In addition to the distance, loss and other reasons, the biggest factor is knowing that the once-in-a-century selection is coming. With an official warlock leading the team, what are you afraid of?
“We are just pursuing safety… Master Masca, you know, these trump cards need to be used one less…”
Penelope looked pitiful. According to the family’s order, if she can talk to this official If something happens to the warlock, even if she becomes pregnant with the other person’s child, then she will definitely be the next queen!
Unfortunately, Maska has no interest in this woman.
He was about to leave when a figure jumped out of the darkness and lay on the ground: “This respected…respected…sir…please wait a moment, I am Yeager’s chief bachelor, my name is Stryker! “
Oh, what do you want to do?”
Maska stopped and waited for Stryker to speak.
“I hope to dedicate my knowledge, my abilities, and everything I have to your great Excellency… I just hope to be your servant… I want to gain more, more knowledge!”
Stryker had a look in his eyes. fanaticism.
He is a mad scientist type.
Now that I have seen the ‘truth’, I naturally want to get closer, even if I am a slave!
“You are so courageous. What qualifications do you have to be Lord Masca’s slave?”
Penelope screamed and was about to kill this ignorant thing with a sword.
To put it bluntly, among their families, the direct descendants of the warlock family are not qualified to become official servants of the warlock!
If Masca had asked her, the Grand Duchess, to be a servant, the family would have immediately agreed with great joy!
“Wait!”
Maska smiled: “You are already very old… But it doesn’t matter. I’m in a good mood today, so I’ll give you a chance.”
Without waiting for Stryker to show his ecstasy, he listened. Maska continued: “Unfortunately… we warlocks are not a group of people who pursue the truth. What we pursue is just to get closer to the original and chaotic… bloodline!”
“Warlocks are proud of their bloodline. Let me test it. Your bloodline, if you don’t have the talent of this chaotic bloodline, then don’t say anything, I will kill you directly!”
“If you have the talent, I will give you a chance to pursue the path of power.”
… …
Penelope was anxious: “But…my lord…”
“Are you going to question my decision?” Maska glared at Penelope, immediately telling the latter to be honest.
“I came to Adson Island to search for fresh blood… Although your family is the first choice, as long as you have talent, you can also get a chance.”
Maska smiled and let Stryker go up.
He then tore open Stryker’s wrist with his nails, letting blood flow.
At the same time, he took out what seemed to be a shriveled skull. The skull’s eyes were red, and a purple-black tongue suddenly stretched out, licking the blood greedily.
Then, it made a sound of “bah, bah, bah” and spit out the blood it had swallowed.
Looking at this scene, Stryker’s heart suddenly sank, as if he had fallen from heaven to hell in an instant.
“Sure enough… it is too rare for a mortal to have the talent of Chaos Bloodline.”
Maska shook his head, turned and left: “You are worthless…”
There are ten levels in total of the talent of Chaos Bloodline, the higher the level. , the closer to the ‘origin’!
If a genius is discovered, even he will receive generous rewards from the Warlock Organization!
But it’s a pity that this old man has no talent!
At the eleventh level, that is, not equal!
Stryker had a deathly expression on his face. When he saw Penelope step forward, he knocked him to the ground with a scabbard: “You are not qualified to be Master Masca’s slave… But, you can be my slave, hehehe …”
When the anger dissipated, Penelope’s sanity returned.
A bachelor who can improve the witcher’s potion is nothing in the eyes of a warlock, but he is still considered a top talent in the Adsen continent.
She looked around and gave an order: “Find all the Lancasters in the royal capital…Kill them all!!!”
…
Lancasters led.
As the place where King Yeager I started, it certainly has unusual significance.
But when the disaster of overthrow comes, they are also the first to suffer.
Groups of cavalry rushed into the small town of Yharnam, burning, killing and looting wantonly. Lancaster Castle not far away had already fallen.
The heirs who were the guards left here by Yeager were directly killed, countless servants were killed, and the maids were forcibly dragged into the bedroom…
The entire territory was instantly plunged into blood and fire.
Occasionally, one or two loyal demon hunters wanted to resist, but they were instantly eliminated by the two warlock apprentices accompanying the army.
“So weak… I can’t even withstand tricks that are not formal witchcraft. It’s too weak.”
The grey-robed warlock with freckles on his face sprinkled a handful of powder, let the flames engulf a demon hunter, and then complained road.
He enjoyed the awed looks from the knights around him.
This is a completely different feeling from being a servant next to Masca.
“Yes…but it will be very troublesome to find them…”
Another warlock was holding an alchemy tool that looked like a compass in his hand, and was a little speechless: “The bloodline plate can’t find any direct descendants of Yeager… Well, it seems that he only had so many children after he became a demon hunter. , but the demon hunter cannot give birth to descendants…”
Warlocks are very good at playing with blood, and the blood plate has the power to identify and find blood relatives.
This one was dripping with Jaeger’s blood.
It’s a pity…
They didn’t expect Yeager to have such a good time!
“Forget it… After killing Lancaster almost, we can explain it. Do we still have to find it slowly?”
The freckle-wearing warlock apprentice shrugged and called a knight: “In this castle Have you killed all the targets?”
The knight in full armor said in awe: “The last target is Yeager’s son – Seamus! The other party was hunting and escaped by chance.”
“Then issue a wanted order. That’s it.”
The warlock apprentice waved his hands and yawned: “Let’s go back…”
…
a few days later.
Lancaster collar.
Aaron wore a gray cloak and walked through the ruins of Lancaster Castle and the messy town of Yharnam.
Eventually, he stopped at the edge of a public cemetery.
Thanks to the fact that there was nothing to rob in the cemetery, the damage here was the least, that is, the tombkeeper’s house was knocked down, and the graves of Lancaster’s ancestors were dug out…
Little John who was poisoned by him didn’t know it either. Whereabouts, he probably died long ago.
The most important thing is…
“There are still no signs of growth of the Resentful Spirit Flower… But this time so many people died and there was so much resentment, it’s probably… almost done?”
He thought so, regardless of the numbness buried in it. The townspeople who were their relatives slowly walked away.
…
a cave.
The middle-aged Simo had a bandage on his back, his eyes were closed tightly, and his forehead was covered with cold sweat, as if he was having a nightmare.
Suddenly, he opened his eyes and gasped.
“Are you awake?”
He heard a voice and looked outside the cave.
There, I don’t know when a figure stood.
The other party’s whole body was covered by a cloak, and his face could not be seen clearly.
“Did you…save me?”
Simo asked, recalling everything before he fell into coma.
He was originally Jaeger’s son. Although he was not favored, he had a king’s father and should be indispensable for a future viscount.
Therefore, I lived a good life for several years.
But soon… everything suddenly changed!
Father died! The family is ruined! Even he carries a wanted warrant!
What’s even more ridiculous is that he, a knight who even learned a little bit of swordsmanship from a witcher, was actually captured by a farmer who stabbed him with a pitchfork in the countryside!
Well… the people of Lancaster don’t care whether you are the lord’s son or not.
All they know is that the Lancasters are doomed, and there’s a reward for catching Seamus!
As for the lord?
What is that?
“It’s me.”
Aaron made a hoarse voice: “Now… you have two choices. The first is to get out of this cave and continue to be a fugitive!”
“The second is to swallow these herbs, they will change you The appearance will make you ugly and hunchback…and then regain your life!”
Simo was silent for a long time: “Why do you want to help me?”
“Help you? No, no, no… I just find myself a subordinate… …Did you see the black line on your belly button? You have been poisoned by me and you must swallow the antidote once a year, otherwise…”
Aaron was not a hypocrite and said everything directly.
Simo smiled bitterly: “I don’t seem to have any other choice? Isn’t it?”
Although he is just a failure of Yeager’s Gu son, he is also very aware of current affairs.
Aaron liked that about him.
“Very good. From today on, just change your name… Just call it Quasimodo!”
A smile appeared on the corner of Aaron’s mouth: “Your first mission is to return to Yanan Elementary School. Go and be the tombkeeper there…maintain the cemetery and notify me immediately if there is any movement.”
“Cemetery? The tombkeeper?”
Simo, or Quasimodo, fell silent.
Aaron didn’t care about him. This originally proud man still needed some time to adapt.
When he came outside the cave and looked at the dense forest, his thoughts turned to other things.
“Sure enough…these royal families and the great nobles are all connected with each other, and there is a huge force above everyone…the warlocks?”
“The records of the demon hunters are not reliable…encirclement and suppression of the warlocks? Is the one who was surrounded and eliminated really a warlock? “
“The legendary flying ship in the royal capital of Rogge… and one person with the power to suppress hundreds of demon hunters… Warlocks are indeed the mainstream in this world…”
“Judging from the previous heraldry research, is it corrected every hundred years?”
Aaron felt that he had missed this opportunity.
But it doesn’t matter, he has another chance, and the next one.
Anyway, he lives forever, just a few hundred years is nothing.
“But the plan needs to be changed… In the remaining one hundred years, should we infiltrate the upper echelons of other kingdoms?”
“In this case, maybe they will be willing to share their secrets with me?”
Aaron pondered.
He knew that although the royal family and great nobles also recruited talents from outside, it was difficult, very difficult!
Even the best talents cannot gain their complete trust!
But I am different. As long as I have enough patience, I can survive those who doubt me!
“Well, this is just an alternative plan.”
“In the remaining one hundred years, just travel around the continent and look for information about warlocks…”
“The blockade of knowledge and information in this era is really too serious… …And Yeager was also unlucky because of the information gap. “
If he knew these inside stories, Yeager would definitely choose a softer approach.
It’s a pity… there is no if.
