The core idea of Edward's round of talk is that "that person" wants to keep Roland until the Druid comes over, and then offer Roland as a visceral sacrifice. If Roland waits until the Druid comes,
If Mr. De comes over, Roland will be dead.
Roland said that he would be completely stupid if he believed it.
There are too many loopholes in Edward's words. From a God's perspective, they are simply full of loopholes:
Who "that person" was, Edward did not mention in the end; what important information Roland had on Roland that required a Druid master to personally come to perform visceral divination, Edward did not make it clear. These appropriate blank spaces,
Just let Roland figure it out on his own.
If Roland didn't know the details about Edward, he might have been tricked into playing tricks on him. For example, Roland might have thought that "that person" was Farina, but the Druid was actually a Druid who had broken into the Druid.
The Embers or Howlers inside came here to execute Roland in a fair and just manner.
As for when Falina had such great energy, and how did the "Master Druid" discover Roland's identity, Roland himself will give appropriate reasons. The power of preconception is so powerful, in front of it
, even tangible evidence will be distorted.
But now, the harder Edward works, the more Roland doubts his true purpose.
Although Roland's enhanced mercury blood was enough to allow him to escape from this level of prison, Edward didn't know about it.
Roland narrowed his eyes slightly.
If he were Edward, what would he do now...
That's right... After successfully capturing Roland, he could directly kill or torture Roland. This is undoubtedly the most direct way to vent his anger - but it is also the method with the lowest return. Not only did he reveal that he was not dead
In fact, it will also arouse the instructor's anger, and at the same time, it will not gain any benefits.
You must know that Higgs also cares for Roland. If Edward just kills Roland, there will be no substantial benefit other than letting him breathe. On the contrary, he will get into big trouble.
Then, the correct answer is to let Roland do things for him, and it is best to lure Roland into the twilight. Now it seems that Bernard is a temptation for Edward.
If Roland cannot bear the mental pollution after killing Bernard, it would be the best situation. And if Roland's willpower is so strong that he completely ignores the infection of dusk, then Edward will try to kill Roland even if he offends his mentor.
No future trouble.
However, Roland's eye color has turned into emerald. This means that Roland has been affected to some extent, and his willpower completely belongs to the category of mortals - that is, below 18 o'clock, facing the mental pollution at dusk, he can only rely on
stage of face.
Because of this, Edward decided to save Roland's life. Because Orwell is dead, all clues except the professor are cut off, and Roland has no way to trace who is behind the scenes.
And the professor was notorious for coming and going without a trace. By the time Roland found the professor, Edward had already made a lot of money from Roland's name. At the same time, he also got Roland into a lot of trouble.
……interesting.
A flash of understanding flashed in Roland's eyes.
That's right. With Roland's character, if he learns the truth by then, he will most likely put Edward aside and prioritize resolving the urgent conflict in front of him.
It was really close. If Roland hadn't happened to be familiar with Tanas...
But now, Roland can use his plan to his advantage——
"So, what can I do for you?"
After patiently listening to the pile of common knowledge about Druid, Roland asked very respectfully.
"Tannas" said nothing, stretched out his hand and pressed it on the iron chain wrapped around Roland. The surrounding starlight gradually shone and connected itself. In an instant, a large pattern was formed.
The dark golden flame ignited quietly between his fingers. His fingers gently slid over the iron chain on Roland's body. The strong iron chain melted and broke into two pieces like butter cut by a hot table knife.
Half. Before the chain broke and fell on its own, Roland's skin was burned and a circle of fine blisters formed, and his skin turned an intense red.
However, after all the iron chains fell off, Roland's skin suddenly flashed with a silvery white light and slowly healed at a speed visible to the naked eye.
[Your metal allergy (mild) is reduced to metal allergy (weak), and all checks receive +1 disadvantage]
[Your metal allergy (weak) has been relieved]
As the chains came off, Roland's slight discomfort gradually dissipated.
Probably because of his mercury body, the iron chains on his body always wanted to enter Roland's body. But Roland's body really couldn't tolerate these foreign objects, so he had a very strong rejection reaction.
The characteristic of mercury body does not mean that Roland has become a Terminator. Because mercury, sulfur and salt have special significance in the world of Farns. Although mercury is still considered a metal, at a higher level, it represents "will"
", just as sulfur represents "desire" and salt represents "reason". In the realm of the covenant maker, those who violate the contract will be turned into pillars of salt or sulfur blocks according to the specific circumstances, which represents "desire".
The imbalance between "hope" and "reason".
If he wants to be a qualified prosecutor, Roland must abandon his own judgment. But as a pope, he does not have to do this.
Feeling the mercury gradually reactivating and consecrating, Roland clenched his fists. The burns on his skin had healed.
Seeing this, "Tanas" said in a deep voice: "My guess is correct. You are indeed an undead."
"...That's right."
Roland hesitated for a moment and showed a puzzled expression: "Is there any problem? Wizards should not reject the undead."
"I'm not against it...but..." The old wizard hesitated for a moment, with determination in his eyes, "I should let you know. It happens to be related to what I want to entrust you with."
The real drama is coming——
Roland immediately cheered up and listened attentively.
"There is a demon hunter among Count Orwell's followers. If he is here, any witchcraft I cast will be delayed."
Roland's pupils shrank slightly.
Sure enough, "Tanas" told something that Roland didn't know at all.
Demon hunters are the mortal enemies of White Tower wizards, and their sphere of influence is near the Broken Islands south of Titan. They hate undead, hate wizards, hate barbarians and even hate elves and other silver species. They are one of the very few extreme humanists among the Titans.
, does not believe in any gods, but executes non-human heretics according to the standards of gods.
Although their leader is not very powerful, because he holds two "shards" that are quite close to the front, he has a strength that cannot be ignored after paying a huge price. What is even more frightening is that one of the "shards" contained
The "forbidden" ability can be self-replicated.
Every witcher has a copy of this fragment. Near the witcher, any supernatural abilities will be weakly interfered with, and the closer they are, the more obvious they are. For spellcasters such as priests and druids, who rely on quantity to win.
It's not bad, except that the power of divine spells will decrease - but for a profession like a wizard who plays a delicate job, it means positioning errors and a decrease in success rate.
Because of the threat posed by witchers to wizards, the White Tower would send out a group of combat wizards to attack them every year. However, the witchers finally succeeded in holding on until the White Tower was conquered... Although in the end they still entered because they were on the wrong team.
This is it.
"It seems that you probably know what a witcher is... Then you should also know how powerful a witcher's ability to interfere with a wizard is. Especially this witcher is a gold-level weapon master. I
There is absolutely nothing we can do against him."
"Tanas" helplessly spread his hands.
Roland was silent for a long time, and then asked: "Then what do you mean? Do you want me to kill him?"
If Edward really said that, Roland would punch him in the face on the spot.
Are you kidding me... I've only heard that if you can't beat the boss at the silver level, you'll ask the gold-level boss for help. I've never heard of you that if you can't beat the boss at the gold level, you'll ask the silver-level boss to kill him.
But Edward is obviously not stupid.
He shook his head and explained: "I just want you to lure him away. Just stay three hundred meters away from here... That way, I can build the Starry Sky Gate."
"...You don't think I can outrun a weapons master, do you?"
Roland looked unhappy.
Edward quickly shook his head: "No, no, no... I will teleport you back when the Starry Sky Gate is summoned."
"I feel relieved when you say that."
Roland nodded.
...If you say that, I can be sure at what point you want to trick me.
Roland bet that Edward would never teleport him back. But it didn't matter, Roland had no intention of fighting him.
He has his own thoughts.
"So, what's the name of that witcher?"
"Arsu Arsu Favel, a pure-blooded mountain man," "Tanasi" said meaningfully, "you will naturally recognize him after you see him." (To be continued.)
