"I heard that the Son of Apocalypse is the messenger of gods and humans. He can fully understand God's will, spread God's glory wholeheartedly, and even return to the Kingdom of God in the end, and will live forever. What a pity..." Roger said with regret, his eyes hidden.
Looking at it with enthusiasm, Ian felt very nervous.
"Hey, you don't want to become the Son of Apocalypse, do you?" Ian asked uneasily. He suspected that this guy has gone crazy. The Son of Apocalypse is simply a disaster on earth. If someone really takes the initiative to pursue it, he will really be the public enemy of mankind.
"I can't ask for it. Unfortunately, the Apocalypse is appointed by His Majesty and is not something we mortals can ask for." Roger shook his head and quickly calmed down his emotions. He said, "According to what you said, I am not sure.
Assimilation that can resist the will of the sickle wielder, if it really becomes Apocalypse, it will be nothing more than a body without free will. This is not what I am pursuing, and it is not true eternal life."
"That's right, and the mentors will never let these things get out of Norton Mountain." Ian thought that Alfo, who has not yet fully awakened, has such lethality. If the Son of Apocalypse is really allowed to run around outside, what will happen?
A catastrophe. I couldn't help cursing in my heart, these bastard gods are really cold-blooded.
"But it's not over yet. You should pay attention to yourself and complete the task as soon as possible." Roger said to Ian thoughtfully, "You are now guilty!"
When Ian saw his strange expression, he couldn't help but feel a little uneasy. Was there something he hadn't considered?
(What is it?)
"Well, I've already been punished. It should have nothing to do with me." Ian said while staring at Roger, hoping he could say something.
Roger smiled, pointed to the east, and said: "Let's not care about the monastery. Have you forgotten that there are people who covet Elfo more than our monastery, huh?"
"Holy Light Charity Society!" Ian had a flash of inspiration, remembering the biggest driving force for this matter to develop to this point, so he blurted it out immediately.
"Correct answer!" Roger snapped his fingers, looked at him with some pity and said, "These guys are the ones who really want your life, so even in Appleton, don't stay too long...
...Don’t be confused, because even if Abel knows that Elfo is not here with you, are you sure he will tell the people over there, and even if he tells them, can the other party believe it? That is the son of the Scythe-bearing Apocalypse.
, no one is willing to give up a chance, understand?"
hiss!
It turns out that the real murderous intention is here. As long as there is a chance, the other party will definitely be willing to search for his soul.
A chill went from Ian's back to the back of his head, making him tremble. Then he remembered that Jasmine had indeed taken away most of the attention, the Sentinel's Sorrow, the Holy Light Mercy Society and other forces that coveted the Son of Apocalypse, but
As another wizard who participated in the escape, how could he, Ian, escape from this vortex so easily?
Indeed, the monastery has confirmed that it does not have Alfred Trevor in its hands, but who can prove that this was not released by the monastery itself to confuse others?
Therefore, the trip to Appleton is in danger!
(You have to find a way to get back as soon as possible!)
After a brief panic, Ian calmed down. He sincerely asked Roger for advice: "Roger, thank you for reminding me, but I can't go back now. I must take those thirty-five people back. Are you familiar with April?"
Can you help me with this situation? Please!" Ian lowered his head slightly.
Roger rubbed the envelope in his hand and agreed without much hesitation. As a pastor who walked through the villages around Appleton, he was naturally familiar with finding people. He nodded and said, "This is a reward for bringing the letter."
I can promise you a favor. You are familiar with the situation in the villages and towns around Appleton, but there is no guarantee that you can find so many people. To be honest, your workload alone has exceeded the total of previous years. Others..."
He sighed, not knowing whether he was pitying Ian's misfortune or what he was doing, and then he remembered something, so he continued: "The goals I mentioned do not include those noble lords and rich gentlemen, you know what I mean.
"
Ian's eyes lit up when he heard this, and he immediately smiled and said: "I know, I know!" It turns out that the real opening is here. You must know that these upper-class people in society are the biggest backup sources for wizards and knights, with their economic strength, cultural literacy and physical fitness.
Definitely meets wizard standards.
In the next few days, Ian followed Roger around and found a dozen children of school age in Avon Town and surrounding villages. Unfortunately, only two had wizard talents. What was even more pity
It's because these two nine-year-old girls are both illiterate, and the others are weak and do not meet the requirements of knights. This makes Ian feel like he is trying to get nothing.
But in the end, he chose six stronger children and decided to take them away. Then he went up to communicate with their parents to see what price they would have to pay to release them. The farmers here have lived here for generations and have listened to them all the time.
They had read the strange stories about Todes Cemetery, and there were also old people who had the same experience, so most of the parents agreed after Ian took out five gold coins.
Only one young couple refused because the girl named Yaya was their only daughter and her mother was really reluctant to let her leave home at such a young age. Besides, for countless years, the monastery has taken away countless children from here.
, but no one has become a wizard, and no one has returned home. It is absolutely unbelievable to say that these people have no ideas in their hearts, but for the sake of five gold coins, they all acquiesced.
Ann is looking for the sorcerer's apprentice.
After all, a gold coin is equal to 10 shillings per pound, and a pound is equal to 20 shillings, and a shilling is equal to 6 pence silver coins. In rural Camelot, an ordinary family with four or five children saves a little a year.
If so, 5 shillings would be enough for their living needs, and 5 gold coins would be enough for 150 shillings. In addition to their daily necessities, it would be enough for their daughters to get married in great glory. Such conditions could not be provided by slave traders.
out.
Not to mention what these people thought, when Warren came up to give money, Roger asked doubtfully: "They don't meet the conditions, why did you spend money to take them away?"
Ian smiled mysteriously. He still didn't tell Roger the truth, so he made up a joke: "Those two little girls are just illiterate. Take them to your church and let your apprentices help with literacy. I will give them a few months to get to know each other."
The basic letters are enough, anyway, I just want to pass the test now. As for the others... I am also the heir to the earl after all, and my family has given me several cavalry teams, so I plan to let Valen train them and enhance my guard strength.
, I don’t think it’s enough for a ten-person team.”
This was half true from Ian's mouth, and Roger had no intention of verifying it. He just assumed that this was what he thought. In the next few days, Ian ordered Warren to take these children to the Scythe Bearer in Appleton.
The church asked the apprentices there to teach them how to read, and also gave them a large sum of money to send people to improve the food of these children and provide them with some nutrition as soon as possible.
"But your safety... How about I stay with you, so I can feel more at ease!" How could Warren be so worried that his young master was wandering outside alone? The last time Ian came home alone, there was someone behind him.
A number of high-ranking knights chased him one after another, but luckily they got home first so they were fine. "I won't let you go out alone, no matter what I say."
Ian looked at Warren speechlessly. He pointed at Roger beside him, and then at the five Warrens, and said: "Believe it or not, he can beat five of you alone. Roger and I can only fight together."
Safer.”
Although Ian only saw a little bit of strength shown by Roger, the combat experience and strength he showed were enough to reassure him.
"I only care about my safety more than you do, what do you think, Xiao Wa!"
Warren was about to say something more, when Roger raised his hand and said, "Don't worry, your young master will be fine." As he spoke, he met Warren Bolton's eyes, and Ian felt a twinge.
A tenacious and powerful mental aura flashed away, and then he saw Valen suddenly take a few steps back, his muscles tightened, and a weak but dangerous hot energy began to activate under his lower abdomen.
The team members behind Valen immediately realized that the captain, who was already a senior knight attendant, was on high alert, so they subconsciously became nervous and prepared to deal with emergencies at any time.
(So ​​strong, just one look almost inspired Xiao Wa’s fighting spirit. Counting the time, he should be at the top of the Awakened Ones. He is really strong!)
A past full of stories, strange beliefs, mysterious powers... In Ian's eyes, Roger seemed even more mysterious.
On the other hand, Roger didn't show much. He just smiled calmly and said, "Relax, now you believe it."
After hearing this, Warren slowly calmed down his fighting spirit. After looking at Roger fearfully, he raised his hand and clenched his fist to signal his men to relax.
…
After breaking up with Warren, Ian also temporarily separated from Roger. Because there are a total of five large farmers in Avon Town, all of them are members of the Autonomous Assembly. According to Roger, only three of them have children. Ian originally planned to
The visiting Locke is not among them.
Therefore, the two of them agreed to split up and find a house to check on the situation. Ian also had a dozen level 4 magic stones on him, one of which was a reward for completing a mission with Jasmine, and the other was a full gift from Sheen before leaving this time.
The rest of the fourth-level magic stone for mental power was brought from home. He originally planned to give the new piece to Roger, firstly for testing, and secondly as a way to thank him for his hard work these days. Who knows?
The other party didn't want it, which made him a little strange.
If you don’t want it, just don’t want it. Maybe someone with a rich net worth doesn’t like it!
Ian suddenly felt sad when he remembered that Roger had a mentor-level teacher.
Coincidentally, the farmer he was looking for happened to be the operator of the hotel where he stayed when he came to Avon Town. After inquiring, he learned that in addition to this hotel, the other party also had a bar and a cargo ship in the town.
, he is considered to have a small fortune locally.
The Achill family has a boy and a girl, a younger brother, Warner Achill, and an elder sister, Whittier Achill. They are twins. However, the younger brother died when he was seven years old. I heard that the elder sister studied well and is in good health.
But unfortunately, when Ian came to visit, Whittier was studying at a boarding school in Appleton and would not be back until the end of December.
Aqil is a businessman in his 30s and 40s. He is best at observing people's emotions. Because he is in the Autonomous Conference, he is no stranger to the Hyderian Monastery. He knows very well what kind of transcendent force these words represent. Therefore,
He was extremely surprised when Ian came to visit him. Whittier had a chance to become a wizard, so wouldn't he be able to walk sideways in Avon Town?
Achill had small calculations in his mind, but Ian ignored them. After asking about Whittier's boarding school, he said goodbye and left, leaving the other party with nothing to say.
While it was still early, he went to another congressman's house, and he found the person. Unfortunately, he didn't have the talent of a wizard, but Ian saw that the little girl was in good health and could read and write, so he took her out. Then
When the congressman heard that he wanted to take his daughter to the monastery, he naturally did not dare to stop him in the slightest. He quickly packed his luggage and sent the two of them out without even staying overnight. Ian lamented that this family was so unkind.
After meeting Roger at night, I found that the other party also brought a little girl. He suddenly asked with some surprise: "Roger, you found one!" Roger nodded.
Ian continued: "I went to two families. The Archil family's children are studying in Appleton. I asked them about their addresses. However, there is only one girl in Henry's family, the one behind me, Yule. Tomorrow we will leave for Appleton.
Purton."
Roger looked at Yule for a while and then asked: "Is the Achill family a girl?"
Chapter completed!
