Just thinking that this undead priest was Kelanwo's priest and might know some information about the sleeping mentor, Roland ignored more important things.
That's right, when Roland discovered that the stranger was an undead, he should have noticed——
You know, Farina was just an ordinary druid before she became the Death Crow.
Even though her surname is Green Vine and she is good at making various poisons, it is absolutely impossible for her to kill an undead completely at her level.
As long as this is not possible, no one can kill the mouth of an undead. Even Roland can only inactivate the body of the undead.
By the time the young undead resurrected, Roland would have left here long ago. Even if he reacted, it would be useless to tell Farina that there was a druid pretending to be the Blighter. After all, Farina was originally a druid who was on the run.
The original guardian of this town came to power after his death. It is absolutely impossible to report Roland's information - that would be tantamount to falling into a trap.
Even Roland, a white man, couldn't do it, so how could a green vine druid who was good at poisoning kill an undead? The undead's poison resistance is already very high, except for fairy blood, which is made from materials of the silver race or above.
poison, all common poisons are ineffective.
Therefore, it is absolutely impossible for Farina to poison an undead.
In other words, Farina's diary did not record the real situation.
The diary itself is for her own reading. She could not have thought that she would die from the beginning and deliberately recorded wrong situations in the diary.
The only possibility for this kind of intentional misremembering is that Farina knew someone would read her diary, and she didn’t know when. In order to mislead that person, Farina made nine mistakes in her diary.
I deliberately misremembered many key things, both true and false.
As for the inheritance of the dead crow, the misleading of these information to outsiders must have its meaning, otherwise Falina would have no reason to deliberately conceal such an unrepeatable event. If her records are true, then she has also received the inheritance
, that person is also dead, she could just write it down openly.
So there is only one answer - the place where Farina obtained the inheritance of the Death Crow was not the stranger priest, but someone related to the Monitor. And the existence of the person she killed is of great significance.
, living and dying will greatly affect Farina's interests and even safety, so she deliberately concealed the fact that she was killed.
On the other hand, the things that are not recorded in Farina's diary are actually the most important things.
Roland felt that a hidden truth was getting closer and closer to him.
Considering what Roland saw in the game and what happened before and after Falina obtained the Death Crow inheritance, the answer becomes obvious——
In Falina's diary, she recorded that less than two days before she received the Death Crow inheritance, she also wrote: "The old liar under the bell tower said that I will be in bad luck recently, which is really bad luck. I see him every day
It’s really annoying.”
But about a day after that date, Old John disappeared.
Almost around the day that Old John disappeared, Farina received important information about Death Crow's job change.
After that, there was no mention of Old John in her diary. Before that day, she would say a few annoying words about Old John almost every day, but just after he disappeared, Farina never mentioned him again.
.There is no record of "I don't know if he is dead or not".
There was only one answer. That was that she already knew clearly that old John was dead. Naturally, she would no longer be confused about what she already knew clearly.
Let’s take a closer look at Old John’s astrology measuring instrument that was completely inconsistent with his identity. The star measuring instrument had been damaged when the player found his body, as well as his testimony that “I didn’t touch anything except the money he had on him.” Then what are the contradictions?
Obvious.
Thinking of this, Roland turned around and went downstairs without hesitation. He casually said "dispose of the body" and immediately ran to the gutter of the west gate.
Maybe it's not too late to go now.
"It should have been discovered long ago..."
Roland murmured.
A set of White Tower's regular astrological measuring instruments costs at least eight hundred gold coins. That is already a year's tax for a small nobleman. It can even buy two high-quality war horses.
And the remains of the measuring instrument, which was almost completely damaged, were actually sold for dozens of gold coins. Things of that level should never appear in the hands of people like Old John. Even in the most expensive Baidu
Tower, this thing can also be exchanged for a sea-view villa. In a relatively small principality, buying a lifelong viscount is enough.
If Roland guessed correctly, Old John was most likely undergoing a poverty trial.
It is a secret inheritance for the Gold-level White Tower wizard to feel the origin. After completing the trial, there is a good chance that he will initially feel his origin.
To put it simply, it means giving up all your spellcasting abilities for a period of time, then giving up all props and money, and living for a year in a place that threatens your life every day. In this case, the wizard returns to the White Tower and holds the
A ritual can directly call upon one's origin.
This method of awakening the origin is simple, direct and effective. However, because of its obvious dangers, the group of White Tower wizards who value their own lives higher than others will definitely not choose this path unless it is inevitable.
Old John must have reached the limit of his age. If he could not awaken the origin, he would not survive for more than two years. In order to continue his research, he accepted such a harsh test.
And the reason why he was able to bring that measuring instrument was probably because the measuring instrument was not a "prop" at all, it was hollow inside! Old John judged that the weather should really be calculated based on astrology.
He very wisely chose to conduct the trial of poverty in a small town on the border of Karar. In this way, he would not encounter a few Blighters who were killing wizards, nor would he accidentally offend someone powerful.
people were killed.
Originally, Old John had a good chance of surviving the trial of poverty, but unfortunately, he was killed by Falina in the third month.
Perhaps Farina realized something strange about "Old John" from the fact that someone was watching her; perhaps she simply wanted to get Old John's measuring instrument - so she killed Old John, and by the way
Take away all the inheritance from him.
Even the way to kill him was probably not the poisoning in Bili that Farina recorded in her diary - she hated Old John to the extreme, and she had no place to learn that Old John was a golden man with limited abilities.
A high-level wizard would naturally not choose to kill Old John in this way.
If nothing else, there is probably something Roland wants hidden in that measuring instrument.
If it passes now, it might still be too late——
With this thought in mind, Roland stretched out the vines from under his robe without concealing it, and pushed it on the ground to move forward quickly.
No one dared to hinder Roland's progress on the road.
A man in black robes passed by in a hurry, and every passerby who spotted him quickly retreated to the edge of the road with a look of horror, to prevent themselves from being killed by the Blighter who seemed to be in a hurry because he was blocking the road.
After coming down from the third floor, Roland reached the west gate of Ram Town in less than a minute and a half and found the sewer.
Roland immediately breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that the broken measuring instruments in the video that Roland had seen did not appear in the gutter.
There is still hope.
Roland said nothing and was not afraid of getting dirty. He directly manipulated the vines that shared his senses to get into the sewage in the sewer and fished out the body of old John.
That's not hard to find.
The passerby who was probably instructed by Falina or guided by her to kill Old John had probably never killed anyone before. He didn't even know how to dig up the mud and bury the body shallowly. He just threw the body in in a panic.
into the sewage.
Even if it is winter now, a week is enough time for a corpse soaked in dirty water to rot. By then, the smell in the sewer will inevitably attract the guards. Guard Karar who has received Druid's education
The team is even more versatile than some of their armies. With the help of divine magic, it is only an easy task to conduct a simple autopsy and find out who was here a week ago.
So, the reason why Roland didn't really know who the murderer of Old John was until he came to this world is that it can only be because Falina has already killed the middle-aged man, or the entire guard.
They have been completely controlled by her.
Roland directed the vines to take out the measuring instrument from Old John's arms. As for other things, he basically left them untouched.
"As expected."
Roland whispered.
All I saw was a small, boxy, palm-sized black box that was not even wet, let alone damaged by dirty water.
Roland has seen people in the guild use this kind of thing before. If he remembers correctly...
He reached out and lifted the black box, bumped it, found the three heavier corners, then reached out and tapped it three times.
"Saor-sorrso. (Command: Open the secret layer)"
As Roland's instructions fell, the small black box began to buzz and vibrate, floating in the air out of thin air.
An old voice came from it: "Gageter? (Password?)"
...Password? What is that?
Roland raised his eyebrows.
But he didn't have any worries in his heart. Since the woman Farina could open her, there was no reason why he, as an Ember, couldn't open her.
With this thought in mind, Roland ignored the suspended little black box for the time being. Instead, he drew out the Kalal sword, completely cut open Old John's chest and abdomen, and then used vines to turn his body sideways.
Just when the black blood had just flowed out and the internal organs had not yet flowed out, a green light flashed in Roland's eyes.
——Visceral divination, start!
The last scene in Roland's eyes was the sign that Old John's intestines had just come out. The moment after that, a projection of consciousness from a higher level covered his five senses, and he felt like a divine revelation.
Appearing before his eyes like this——
Quickly, Old John's life passed in front of him, and the picture was dim and dim.
Roland pursed his lips tightly and stared at any picture that passed before his eyes.
Entering the White Tower...
Advanced silver...
Discovered Tal-John's theorem...
Advanced gold...
dispute……
The trial of poverty...
"That's it!" Roland's eyes instantly became sharp.
It was as if the picture had been cut open along with Old John's body. After Roland wanted to see it more clearly, the flow of the picture slowed down dozens of times.
This is what happened after Old John decided to start the poverty trial.
Afterwards, Roland saw Old John having an argument with someone, then entering his laboratory and taking out the dark box!
Roland's heart moved, and the flow speed of the entire picture became the same as that of the normal world.
Old John was wearing a dark purple mentor's robe embroidered with complicated patterns. He unfolded his astrology monitor with a serious look on his face, then without hesitation he left it empty and stuffed another piece of paper.
"Orfe-Gageter. (Set password)"
After finishing all this, he breathed a sigh of relief and said in a deep voice.
"Gageter? (password?)"
Old John pondered for a moment, and then read in a light and cheerful language: "Evening is approaching, and the tired bird leaves the nest and never returns -"
The scene ends abruptly.
Roland's eyes were dazzled, and then he saw that Old John's body seemed to have just been kicked by someone and rolled down the gutter again. Because the rhythm of the flow of his internal organs was disrupted and it left Roland's sight, this kind of
The divine revelation from the Father of Gaia ends here.
Afterwards, Roland found a guard in full body armor standing in front of him, with the sword on his waist resting on his neck. Behind him, twelve or thirteen fully armed guards stood ready to look at Roland.
Roland didn't pay attention to them, but recalled the scenes he saw before.
Roland has never doubted the authenticity of the picture. Any life born on the earth will never hide it from the Father of Gaia. Even if the Father of Gaia is now contaminated by the Dusk Species, he has snakes in his eyes.
Higgs, but he never lost this ability.
What makes Roland more concerned is why Old John finally encrypted in the language of the winter elves instead of the White Tower language commonly used among White Tower wizards?
Baita language is an advanced form of encryption derived from the language of the devil. Speaking or writing in this language, neither priests nor their gods can hear or see this language.
If Old John only wanted to hide something, encrypting it in Baita language would undoubtedly be the best choice.
As for the last sentence he read but did not finish, Roland also knew its origin.
As dusk approaches, the tired bird leaves its nest and never returns.
This is a section from the winter elf's long poem "The Ravens of Ilamath".
That long poem is a spiritual poem written by the wise men of the winter elves that contains hidden prophecies and life lessons. It also reveals the locations of three ancient treasures.
Roland even remembered what the next sentence of "Never Return" was -
"Are you listening to me!"
Suddenly, Roland heard the guard in front of him yell angrily.
Roland didn't even bother to respond. He just raised his head and looked at him coldly. The guard took a half step back out of fear, and the sword he held tightly in his hand lowered his head.
But then, the man seemed to feel embarrassed, and immediately took two steps forward, and raised the sword again, even closer to Roland's neck.
Roland could even feel his hands trembling.
"I am the captain of Ram's city guard! We suspect that you are posing as a Blighter and committing many murders - now you are going to be handed over to Lord Falina for trial."
The captain of the city guard swallowed his saliva and said in a stern tone.
Falina?
Sure enough it was her.
Roland sneered.
"Okay, I'll go with you," he said, "but hold your sword more firmly. If you're shaking like this, I suspect you have the intention to assassinate me."
"——If you can't kill me with one sword, just wait for the people of this town to bury you with you."
A voice like that coming from the land of the dead rang faintly in the ears of the guard captain.
As a result, the man trembled violently, then hesitated unwillingly, fearfully, and cringingly, and finally put down the sword in his hand.
