Ringer stood in front of the door, watching Carson Berg's back go away, gradually disappearing at the end of the street, and walking into the dark and dense black forest.
Night is gradually falling, but there is no distinction between day and night in the Evernight Woodland, so people can only judge the time by the luminous mushrooms and moss that gradually light up. The phosphorus moss will emit a faint yellow light at night.
, luminous
The mushrooms will not wake up until the moon rises in the sky, and their light seems to be bright silver. There is also a type that is similar to a firefly, but its tail will emit a dark red light. It is like a will-o'-the-wisp and is erratic.
Haunted at dawn.
Compared with the illumination of these natural creatures, the street lights that light up one by one on Yunjing Sky Island, the candles in Tianxin Church, and the orange fire in the Fairy Sleep Inn are undoubtedly warmer and will attract all those who are addicted to darkness.
The soul can't help but get closer. But this is not the case for the Gray Hill Eagle. Although he also longs for a light in the dark night, he can only feel at ease by staying with his companions.
Therefore, he declined Ringer's invitation to have dinner and decided to return to his companions, guiding them like a flag as always.
Although he still had many questions to ask, Lin Ge knew that now was not the time to act in a hurry, so he did not force him to stay. He just thought that he could ask the proprietress to send some food to the Ashes Guerrilla people later. It didn’t take too long.
A hearty, hot bowl of creamy soup must be enough for these determined warriors.
It wasn't until Carson Berg was completely out of sight that the young man withdrew his gaze and turned around and walked into the church. At this time, a figure also walked out from behind the statue of the goddess, a girl with gray hair and gray eyes, wearing a
Simple and cold-looking, with a gray-feathered falcon with snow-white feathers perched on its shoulder, this bird is widely distributed in the coastal areas of the Western Continent.
, all have a pair of blue eyes like the distant sea. Depending on its growth status, the color of its pupils will change back and forth between dark blue and light blue. This gray-feathered falcon is obviously well taken care of by its owner, so its pupils are the purest and clearest.
Blue, like transparent glass, clearly reflects the flickering candlelight in the church, as well as the young man who is gradually stepping out of the firelight.
The gray-haired girl stretched out her hand and gently teased the beak of the gray-feathered falcon. At the same time, she laughed contemptuously: "It seems that you are already well-known in the Eastern Continent as a 'heroic resister', Mr. Ringer."
.”
She mocked the young man with Carson Berg's words, but Ringer was indifferent and just shook his head: "This is not a good thing."
"You would say that, which really makes me happy, but also a little disappointing." Bai Ye curled his lips: "Solomon is indeed an insidious old poisonous snake. He is very capable, but this ability will only serve his own ambitions, and even
The Witch Association, for a moment, lost sight of it and was bitten by this poisonous snake. If you don't stay alert to it, maybe one day those words of praise will turn into poisonous fangs and bite through your neck?"
Having said this, she looked at the young man's neck maliciously, grinned slightly, and deliberately squeezed out a piece of red tongue tip from between a row of white and neat teeth, and gently licked along the edges of the teeth.
, as if he was thinking about where to eat it to make it more delicious. This aggressive gaze made Linger tilt his head and avoid her sight. His expression was quite unnatural, perhaps because he remembered
Maybe it's because of a certain daring little vampire.
"Let me take this as a kind reminder." He replied dryly: "Thank you."
"whispering sound."
Seeing that he was indifferent to her provocation, Bai Ye was quite bored. She snorted coldly and said, "There's no need to say thank you. It will only make me sick. It's better to leave it to Gloria, that little idiot. She likes to hear this the most."
This is disgusting stuff."
Well said, when will you replace Gloria?
Ling Ge thought in his mind, but did not dare to say it out loud. He was even more afraid that Bai Ye would see through his current thoughts from the details, so he forcibly changed his mind and began to think about what Solomon's intention was. It sounded like he had been paying attention to Lin Ge for a long time.
one line
The movement of the person should have happened at the latest when he came into contact with Gundaluff in the Xugen Swamp. This is not surprising. The question is why does he praise Ringer so highly? Could it be that he really feels that he is confrontational?
The hope of the Witch Association will fall on him, right?
Mostly it's just an excuse.
Even if Carson Berg took it seriously, Ringo wouldn't take it seriously.
Perhaps for the people of the Eastern Continent, "becoming the next Solomon" is a kind of honorable praise. Although this famous "Father of Magic" comes from the Western Continent and was once a member of the Witch Association, he was finally able to
He resolutely rebelled against the association, let go of the past, and chose a path that was an enemy of evil and tyranny. Without firm consciousness and lofty beliefs, I am afraid it would be impossible to make such a choice, right? Therefore, those who know the above deeds are all wrong.
He feels recognized and admired.
However, in the minds of insiders, Solomon is by no means such a tall image. On the contrary, all his actions, logic and motives are worthy of vigilance.
Was Solomon's betrayal of the Witches' Association really because he was dissatisfied with what the association had done? He was indeed one of the few defectors in the association's history, and perhaps the one with the greatest influence. However,
According to Gloria, the real reason for his betrayal was because the association proposed a policy of "replacing magic with magic" in order to cut off magic power, aiming to further reduce the magic power concentration of the Mirror Star, which was very important to Solomon.
It's intolerable
His contribution to becoming a philosopher came from the establishment of the standard system of magic power. He formulated the basic unit of magic power based on the magic power concentration of parallel roses, which is still used today, O'S, which further standardized the magic system, and he himself also won the
He is known as the "Father of Modern Magic", and together with Merlin Ambrosius, the "Forefather of Magic", Ursula, the "Minister of Magic", and Nicol Flamel, the "Great Magician", he is also known as the most influential person in the new era.
One of the great magicians.
This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading! It can be seen that he must have enjoyed all the honors brought by this title so much that he raised fierce objections at that meeting, but at least, the witch at that time
In the association, the majority of philosophers had a clear understanding of the need for magic to replace magic, so Solomon's objections were overwhelmingly rejected at the voting stage.
The most exciting plot of the whole incident unfolded like this - on the same day the meeting ended, Solomon defected with most of the secret information about the magic system within the association. His decision-making and action were so fast that Gloria
When I saw this, I couldn't help but sigh, suspecting that the father of magic had actually planned it. If not now, he would defect at some point in the future. This meeting only accelerated the process.
Because what he enjoys is the process of being worshiped as the "Father of Modern Magic", but within the association, there are too many "philosophers" of the same level as him, except for Merlin and Ursula, who are also magicians.
Alongside Nicolas Flamel, who popularized magic
The system's "Beast Mage" Aleister Crowley, "Saint" Joan of Arc, "Red Bearded King" Barbarossa and "Marshal" Napoleon and others are not inferior in worldly fame, which seems to make him
I feel that I have been buried, or in other words, suppressed.
The signs of rebellion had already been planted, and Solomon's subsequent actions confirmed this. He couldn't wait to usurp the leadership of the secret organization Seeking Knowledge, renamed it the Society of Truth, and then held the so-called "Truth Society" in the name of the Society.
"Magic Conference" disclosed the existence of the witch association to the mysterious world and publicized its harmfulness, rendering it an evil force capable of destroying the world.
——In a sense, it fits the day and night fears of magicians at that time. Therefore, the Thirteen Hermits were established. Since then, this man has participated in various measures taken by the magic world and the secular world to join forces to fight against the witch association.
From the Battle of Sujuye to the Battle of Suzheng, from the Battle of the Fog River to the unintentional assassination, he almost completely experienced every war and conspiracy of that era.
But the end of the war was that magicians were slaughtered and withered, falling in pieces like wheat fields harvested in autumn. The end of the conspiracy was that magicians' status in the secular world plummeted, and they were reduced from mere guests to notorious criminals.
.In this process, Bisolo
More powerful magicians died one after another. Only he escaped each death crisis and made his status higher and higher until he became the leader of all magicians and the author of the Thirteen Hermits——
The actual head and core.
The magic world is getting weaker and weaker, and Solomon is getting stronger and stronger. When the former declines to a certain extent, and the latter reaches a certain level of strength, he naturally proposes the policy of going to the Eastern Continent to join forces with other forces to jointly resist the witch association.
This not only allowed him to avoid the liquidation from the Witch Association after the war, but also gained him a huge reputation in the Eastern Continent. No one called this behavior an escape, but praised the father of magic for his foresight and wisdom.
Just imagine, a magician from the Western Continent could occupy a place in the "Holy Alliance" of the Eastern Continent with extraordinary beings and aliens as the core. Didn't he encounter obstacles from opponents, attackers and people with malicious intentions?
?Think again about where those people have gone, and you will understand how terrifying and secretive Solomon's methods are.
If we say that he is just deep-minded and unscrupulous and does not have the meticulous side of a magician, that is not entirely true. At least, before Lin Ge and others came to the Eastern Continent due to various accidents, he was already in this land.
He went on to publicize the deeds of the young priest. Whether he truly believed that those people would come here one day, or whether he was tempted and made an idle move, at least he could clearly understand that the key to fighting against the witch association is not
Western Continent, but lies in the Eastern Continent.
As a former philosopher, he is more experienced than others in deducing the motivations and intentions of the witch association.
They will meet one day. Linger only hopes that day will come later, at least after he has thoroughly understood the situation in the Eastern Continent and has a certain understanding of Solomon and his Thirteen Hermits. That way,
This way you won't step into the trap without knowing anything and become a pawn of Solomon.
Pressing down the complicated thoughts in his heart, the young man's spirit returned to reality. When he raised his head, he found that Bai Ye had walked to the altar at some point and was standing behind the altar where he usually preached sermons to the believers.
Her misty pupils looked down at her. Her face was expressionless, but there was a bit of doubt and questioning in her eyes.
"Sorry." I don't know why, but seeing such a look, Ringer subconsciously apologized: "I've been thinking for too long..."
"Do you think I'm mad at something stupid like this?"
Bai Ye said disdainfully, and then she felt that her tone seemed a bit too casual, but it seemed that she had a good relationship with Ringer, so she put on a straight face again and said in the tone she usually used to scold the little idiot Gloria: "
Have you forgotten the purpose of calling me here?"
Lin Ge was stunned when he heard this.
"It seems that I really forgot, or are I just pretending to be confused?" Bai Ye sneered: "At first, I was asked to hide behind the statue of the goddess, and use the power of the soul to test what the guy named Carson Borg was thinking and saying.
Are they all coming from the true heart? Isn’t it you?
Of course, I don’t object, on the contrary, I agree, otherwise I wouldn’t listen to you and hide behind you like a fool for half an hour. But that guy has been gone for so long, and you never asked me what the outcome was.
Starting from the information revealed by that guy,
Think about countermeasures based on the premise that he is true and correct. Have you not considered that he is completely deceiving you? Just because your first question has exposed the fact that you know nothing about this continent, and we are indeed
There are interests worthy of his pursuit,
So it is not impossible to fabricate lies and deliberately deceive for this, right? Or do you think that as the leader of the Ashes Guerrilla, a rebel soldier who resists the invasion of an enemy country, his moral character is pure and flawless, and he will not lie to outsiders like us? Also?
Or-"
Her body leaned forward slightly, her short gray hair fell from her ears, and her gray pupils were fixed on the young man's face: "You feel guilty about your unreasonable suspicion of others, so you deliberately avoid this result? What if?
If it turns out you're wrong, you'll feel even more guilty, and if it turns out you're right, you'll be disappointed. Oh my God, Ringo."
She straightened up again, spread her hands, and said in a deliberately exaggerated tone: "When did you become so gentle and considerate? Or, as Xino said, this is not gentleness or understanding.
People’s will——”
"But what about weakness?"
call--
The wind poured in through the half-open church door, making the doors, windows, tables and chairs rattle.
The shadow elongated by the candlelight is reflected on the stained glass window, swaying in the complicated and gorgeous painted patterns, like a shadow in the heart, with teeth and claws.
