Calamity Crown

Chapter 371 Brothers' Night Talk!

Changed another house——

"It's safe here."

"It is a businessman's property. The businessman is busy with his business and has moved his family to Port Marne. He was hit by a tsunami before, and unfortunately his whole family died-this place was inherited by a distant relative."

"That distant relative?"

"On the way."

After lighting the fireplace, Skiffins Steinbeck explained while holding hot milk.

However, Goethe's eyes were on the hot milk.

The heir of the Steinbeck family frowned slightly, a little reluctantly, but finally brought Goethe a cup of hot milk.

"Add sugar."

Goethe said immediately.

call!

The heir of the Steinbeck family took a deep breath, conjured up a little more sugar, and added it.

He doesn't like to share food.

But if it is Goethe.

He gritted his teeth, yes.

Who made it his younger brother?

Skiffins Steinbeck hypnotized himself as best he could.

After passing the milk to Goethe, Skiffins Steinbeck put a ring on the table.

【The Eye of Fairness】!

Goethe glanced at it and confirmed the item information.

Then, he looked at Skiffins Steinbeck pretending to be puzzled.

The other party took out another prop.

[Scales of Predators: Among the ancestors of the Steinbeck family, the most famous one is 'Coward' Grant Steinbeck, because six hundred and sixty-six years ago, he was scared to death by a clown, and all the clansmen thought it was incredible Yes, I took it as a family disgrace, but two hundred and thirty-three years ago, Grando Steinbeck discovered the secret of his ancestors: Grant Steinbeck was a robber who was once known as the 'Predator', not Stealing other people's property, but stealing other people's ability - and this is his own ability! 】

[Effect: 1, Steal; 2, Satisfy]

[Steal: When you defeat or kill the opponent, you can steal the opponent's strength and ability, but it is absolutely impossible to obtain the opponent's memory and secrets, and you cannot exceed your due limit]

[Satisfaction: Your ability is extremely greedy. Once you gain a bit of strength and ability, you should give up a bit of your own strength and ability to satisfy it. When you are not satisfied, you will use life as a support point. 】

(Note 1: 'Predator's Scale' is the only ability awakened by Grant Steinbeck in this world. Only descendants of the Steinbeck family can awaken such an ability, but the awakening rate is almost negligible)

(Note 2: 'The Predator's Scale' is a prop that only descendants of the Steinbeck family can use.)

(Note 3: This is an ability-realized prop, which cannot be brought into the secret realm)

(Note 4: When one's own lifespan is insufficient, death will come, and those who hold and awaken the "Predator's Scale" will not be able to accurately predict their own lifespan)

...

This is a bracelet.

It looked dark and inconspicuous.

There is neither any special pattern nor obvious logo.

But the ability of the item made Goethe gasp.

There is such a 'ability'?

It seems to have seen Goethe's shock.

Skiffins Steinbeck explained softly.

"The power of warlocks is very special. In the 'Golden Age' they were called the descendants of gods and demons. In the 'Silver Age', a large number of intermarriages and mixed blood made the power of Warlocks even more unpredictable."

"As for the 'Bronze Age'?"

"The power of some warlocks can even chase ancestors."

"certainly!"

"The 'Dark Iron Age' ended all of that."

Skiffins Steinbeck said, making a mouth shape with his mouth, which is——

witch!

Goethe's heart trembled.

Another witch.

"Are you thinking, it's them again?"

"I don't have mind reading skills. Although I want to, I really don't have it."

"The reason why I know is because, when I knew this secret, I had the same thought as you."

Skiffins Steinbeck said and put [The Predator's Scale] into Goethe's hands.

On the black bracelet, there are flashes of splendor.

But it is fleeting.

But this is enough.

The fact that Goethe has a "lucky bloodline" has been confirmed again.

Of course, there are also 'misfortune', 'curse' and 'crazy'.

"You just want to tell me this?"

Goethe looked at the [Predator's Scale] in his hand, narrowing his eyes slightly.

Skiffins Steinbeck first took out the [Eye of Fairness] to prove that he does not know how to peep.

He also used [Predator's Scale] to confirm his identity and bloodline again.

Some obvious answers began to appear in Goethe's heart.

He looked at "The Predator's Scale" again, and returned it to Skiffins Steinbeck.

The latter saw Goethe's reluctance.

Immediately laughed.

"it does not matter."

"When I die, these will all be yours."

"And what I want to tell you is naturally more than that - I just found that you are curious about my 'road', so I think I should tell you about the existence of the item [Predator's Scale]."

"And about them?"

"They are the remnants of the 'Age of Mythology' and maintain their rule by some means."

"The former Modeus is one of them."

"However, they were careless."

"Let Modeus discover the clues and cause resistance."

"So much so that the whole world was almost destroyed."

"It also cost them a heavy price."

Skiffins Steinbeck said softly, and put [Predator's Scale] on his wrist, using his sleeves as a cover—a very casual look, and this look reminded Goethe of every When meeting the other party once, the other party was wearing [Predator's Scale], but he ignored this item every time.

some kind of ability?

Or props?

"It's ability."

"It comes from [Predator's Scale]—it's easy to use, far beyond your imagination, Goethe, and the feeling of getting something for nothing is so great that I'm willing to pay for my life."

"Keren has a limit after all."

"My lifespan is coming to an end."

"You don't have to doubt that."

"Although [Predator's Scale] has limitations, I also have a rough estimate."

Skiffins Steinbeck shrugged his shoulders while saying such words.

"So, that's why you treat me well?"

"You want me to continue the 'Steinbeck family'!"

Goethe asked.

"certainly!"

"If I had met you ten years ago, I would have killed you—because, in my opinion, your naughtiness is ignorant and incompetent, and you are not qualified to inherit the family."

"Actually, that's what I did."

"When I was in Lust, I saw how miserable you were, so under normal circumstances, you would die."

"But you survived."

"Also, your performance makes me satisfied."

"Therefore, I think you can inherit the 'Steinbeck family' after my death."

Skiffins Steinbeck did not hide.

He took a sip of the hot milk and continued.

"I originally prepared some successors to allow the 'Steinbeck Family' to continue better, but these successors have some disadvantages, and they are far inferior to you."

"It was around the time of our second meeting that I had this idea."

"Unfortunately, it happened so quickly."

"You have inherited the 'inheritance' of Modeus... Don't deny it, the change in your strength has already explained everything, and I am happy to see you getting stronger and stronger."

"The stronger you are, the safer you are."

"After all, your bloodline has long determined that you will be stared at."

stare!

When Skiffins Steinbeck uttered this word, Goethe understood that the other party knew more than he imagined.

As for whether the other party is telling the truth?

Goethe could not confirm.

Perhaps most of them are true, and only a few are false.

For example: life is not long.

The most troublesome lie is nine lies and one truth.

Because it's ridiculous and helpless.

The most frightening lie is nine truths and one falsehood.

Because, really is the same as really.

And when you have an item like [Predator's Scale], how do you make up a lie?

Naturally, his life is not long.

I've used [Marauder's Scale] many times, and I'm dying, which makes sense.

However, Goethe has the talent of [Longevity Species].

Although the "Mad King" made it by chance, who can guarantee that the "Steinbeck Family" did not?

If anything, the lifespan crisis posed by [Predator's Libra] would not exist.

Therefore, even if Goethe really saw the various introductions of [Predator's Libra], he would not make people preconceived.

What's more, even if not.

Skiffins Steinbeck can also dig.

The simplest thing is to use it only once in a while, or even once when dealing with the 'bartender' agent, in order to gain his trust.

This approach is more effective and simple.

And what does Skiffins Steinbeck want to do?

Goethe didn't know.

So, he wisely chose to remain silent and just listened quietly.

When they first met, Skiffins Steinbeck impressed him too deeply.

Even now, the memory is still fresh.

So much so that Goethe couldn't trust the other party at all.

Skiffins Steinbeck looked indifferent.

Now, he still looks like a good brother.

"They won the battle with Modeus."

"But it was a miserable victory."

"Even, let the third-party fisherman benefit—well, it's 'them' as you think, but it's not the 'they' of this generation, but the first generation."

"Those guys, when they were victorious, already called themselves 'gods'."

"pity……"

"'They' underestimated the madness of Modeus."

"Seventeen self-proclaimed 'Gods' eventually became sacrifices to the 'Mad King'."

"There are only three agents left, and 'Angler', 'Lord', and 'Lady' have inherited a bit of inheritance."

"And at that time, the 'Dark Iron Age' ended."

Skiffins Steinbeck tells the secrets that ordinary people don't know.

But Goethe frowned.

He always felt a little weird.

Not a lie by Skiffins Steinbeck.

Not about 'Anglers', 'Lords', 'Ladies'.

It's just that the title of 'age' always makes him feel a long time ago.

Skiffins Steinbeck took out a piece of nougat. Immediately, Goethe cast his eyes on it. The heir of the Steinbeck family pursed his lips, gritted his teeth, and took the nougat with distress. to Goethe.

I found another one myself.

When he was about to put it in his mouth, Skiffins Steinbeck just bitten half of it.

The remaining half will be eaten when it is finished.

It's going to be very busy these days.

No time to make sugar.

Skiffins Steinbeck sighed.

"What do you think the world is like?"

"Do you think the world you see is real?"

"Do you think what you know is true?"

Skiffins Steinbeck said suddenly.

It's different from the gentleness just now.

Skiffins Steinbeck, who was chewing nougat, had a look of madness in his eyes, and his voice began to rise: "The world we live in is just a 'reconstruction' after being smashed."

"From the long river of time, a projection was pulled over, mixed with the 'sand from the bottom of the river' and fixed here, and our current 'world' appeared."

"Otherwise, why do you think they won so badly?"

"Otherwise, why do you think 'Mad King' is called 'Mad King'?"

"Otherwise, why do you think the 'they' of the first generation dared to call themselves 'gods'?"

Skiffins Steinbeck's voice was already hysterical at the moment, gradually becoming low and muttering to himself.

"have no idea!"

"You don't know anything!"

"Those who know, pretend to be deaf and dumb—but why can't I? I also want to pretend to be deaf and dumb? Why can't I?"

"damn it!"

"Why should I suffer this?"

Skiffins Steinbeck murmured.

Goethe looked at the other party with a weird look.

Mental illness?

A bit like.

But not complete!

Goethe couldn't say exactly where it was incomplete, but Goethe raised his vigilance against Skiffins Steinbeck to a new level.

Psychosis is scary.

What's even more frightening is that this psychopath still has power.

"My dear brother, you will never understand the panic I felt the moment I saw the 'truth'."

"My brain told me it wasn't true."

"My heart told me that this was true."

"hehe."

"So, I'm going to struggle a bit."

Speaking of these words, Skiffins Steinbeck stood up, pointed to the bedroom in the house, and said, "Okay, brother, we talked late at night, and this is the end."

"I need to do something."

"Come back at about seven tomorrow morning."

"Don't worry, I'll be fine."

"I just made George's performance a little bit more perfect - when he was alive, he was always self-righteous, but he was still a little smart, but after using the 'Secret Art of Flesh and Blood', he became a little less smart."

"He'd probably die without my help."

After speaking, Skiffins Steinbeck left the house.

Goethe, who stayed in the house, added more firewood to the fireplace.

The flames blazed up all at once.

He stared at the dancing flames, lost in thought.

The world is all fake?

hiss.

Goethe narrowed his eyes, his eyes twinkling.

He wasn't intimidated.

But with more ideas.

if!

If all this is as Skiffins Steinbeck said, then the situation is even worse than he imagined!
