Noble Emblem

Hearing Liang Lidong's inquiry, the skeleton sighed: "I also want to commit suicide, but I can only destroy my soul. But if my soul disappears, this body composed of magic power will lose control and cause The disaster is not just about these dozens of corpses. The dark magic is already eroding my body and soul, and I can't hold on for long. Fortunately, you are here."

At this time, Emma used the "Language Understanding" magic on Liang Lidong. This magic can designate someone as a medium to temporarily share his language skills with nearby companions.

At this time, everyone else can understand the language of the Zuze Kingdom.

Kyle was deeply moved when he heard that this evil-looking skeleton contained a noble soul. He took a step forward and asked enthusiastically: "People like you should not die. If possible, we hope to save Your soul,"

"Soul? My soul has been eroded by dark magic, and there is no way to save it." The skeleton sat back on the ground again, and he continued to chew on the arm of the mummy: "So you should just use light magic to purify me. , before my soul dissipates, I think I can suppress the murderous desire in my heart."

"But I think it would be even more regrettable if you really disappeared like this." Kyle persuaded from the side: "Is there anything we can do to help you?"

The skeleton hesitated for a while, but still shook its white head: "Forget it. Although the real world is very good, it is better for a monster like me to die, at least to get peace."

Kyle's eyes lit up when he saw the other party hesitated for a while. The other party's small hesitation showed that there were other methods. He said sincerely: "Mr. Lincoln, please don't give up your 'life'. Although these people's Death has an indirect relationship with you, but I believe you are a kind person. In order to prevent sadness from happening again, you have been restraining your passion. I deeply admire you, so I want to save you."

The skeleton still showed some hesitation: "But..."

"The world is very beautiful now. If your soul dissipates, everything will be over." Kyle glanced at Liang Lidong and said, "I remember the teacher once said that the soul is also a part of life, and a strong soul can also be reborn. Become a living creature, as long as you are strong enough."

Liang Lidong nodded. He did say something similar to the children when he was lecturing in Reed Village.

"Okay then." The skeleton thought for a while and then said: "Among the objects buried with me, there is a black box, which is one of the accessories of this coffin and the core of the curse. When the tomb robbers took my When the coffin was opened, they also stole the thing. Unfortunately, they didn't go far, so they were cursed and died nearby. If you find that thing for me, I can directly turn off the law of cause and effect on the coffin. curse."

Kyle clapped his hands. He said quite happily: "That's great, let's go and help you get that thing back. This quarry is not big, so I don't think it will take much time."

The skeleton scratched the top of his skull: "Then I'll trouble you."

Liang Lidong smiled and asked, "Aren't you going to look for it with us?"

"I can't go far." The skeleton took a few steps forward, but before it could go far, several tentacles composed of black mist suddenly appeared on the coffin behind it, pulling it back directly: "These black energies are the energy manifestation of the curse. , although I can forcibly break through the shackles of those tentacles. But as long as I go far, the curse of the law of cause and effect on the coffin will immediately erupt with more exaggerated intensity. By then, there will be few living people in the nearby cities. "

"Why is this happening?" Kyle looked very sad.

Skeleton Lincoln's voice was filled with some indifferent cheerfulness: "Because my father was afraid that my body would be stolen by tomb robbers and abandoned in the wilderness, so he made a magic circle mechanism like this. In this way, I can always stay in Next to the coffin. But he did not expect that the law of cause and effect he had laid would be forcibly broken and converted into another form of curse."

"Okay, let's go find it for you now. You wait." Kyle looked at Liang Lidong: "Teacher, are we leaving now?"

"You and Alice go together. Emma and I will stay." He looked at the dark passage behind him: "This quarry is not big, and you two can find it quickly. I'll stay here. , I have some questions to ask Mr. Lincoln."

Alice wholeheartedly agreed with Liang Lidong's decision. She wanted to be alone with Kyle all the time.

Seeing the two figures disappearing into the dark passage behind, Emma cast Breeze of Breeze on herself to purify the air around her. She couldn't stand such a stench-filled environment anymore.

Liang Lidong chatted with the skeleton and asked about things during Zuze's kingdom, such as the political system, military establishment, customs and so on.

Although Liang Lidong is not a full-time 'lounger', he is also a divine aristocrat in the template of an 'aristocratic scholar'. The more knowledge he learns and the more customs and customs he learns, the more character experience he has at midnight.

The Zuze Dynasty has always been a mystery in the game, and even the players 'loregelists' don't know much about this mysterious country that existed thousands of years ago.

Now that he met the soul left over from the Zuze Kingdom, he would naturally not let it go, and at least squeeze out some of the other person's knowledge.

Maybe it was because he hadn't chatted with anyone for a long time, but this skeleton also liked to talk to Liang Lidong. He started from some secrets about his ancestors and the royal family, to strange things in the market.

The two chatted happily, and not long after, Kyle came back, holding a black box in his hand. Although the box was black, it emitted white light, and you could feel the strong light magic inside. fluctuation.

"Is this it?" Kyle held the box with one hand and shook it towards the skeleton Lincoln: "In the entire quarry, it is the most special and conspicuous."

The skeleton stood up and seemed a little happy in his tone: "Yes, that's it. Throw it over to me. As long as it returns to the coffin, it will turn off the curse of Guoru."

"good."

Kyle raised his hand and was about to throw it away, but Liang Lidong suddenly said: "Wait a minute, show me, the magic circle above looks very interesting."

Kyle never refused the teacher's words. He handed the black box to Liang Lidong's hand.

And after that. Liang Lidong made an action that shocked everyone. He actually smashed the black box behind him and hit the stone wall. The box fell into pieces, and the light energy inside flowed out, and after a brief glow, . It disappeared without a trace and turned into the most basic colorless magic element.

Everyone was stunned, and Kyle opened his mouth wide.

The white bones on the skeleton were shaking slightly. After a while, it suddenly shouted in a sharp and angry voice: "Asshole, what did you do?"

"What can I do? I just don't want you to be resurrected." Liang Lidong chuckled: "Kyle is still a child and very naive, but I am just like you. We are both liars. Liars know liars best. What are you planning? I know everything.”

Although Kyle was a little naive, he was not stupid. At this time, he heard something: "Teacher, what is going on?"

"Actually, the thing is very simple. This skeleton is lying to us." Liang Lidong said calmly: "The curse of the law of cause and effect is its handiwork. He is not a good person. Those corpses were indeed killed by magic to prevent tomb robbing. But that was to prevent this The skeleton was artificially reanimated, not actually preserved to preserve its body.”

"Your name is Lincoln. Your father said you were a poor child, not because you were attacked and killed by someone, but because he had to kill his own child because his child was a monster."

The skeleton was silent, but Kyle was even more confused: "What do you mean, I don't quite understand."

"Generally speaking, skeletons are dark creatures. But this Lord Lincoln is an undead creature of the light system." Liang Lidong pointed at the skeleton in front of him: "Look at it, does it look different from other skeletons?" Is it the same? Most skeletons are light yellow, and are surrounded by dark elements, but you don't notice it. This skeleton is all white, as white as porcelain. In addition, the soul fire in its pupils is white, which is normal Soul fire should be dark purple."

"The dark magic set up by the coffin, as well as the law of trapped fruit, are actually used to suppress Lincoln." Liang Lidong explained: "Light and darkness are two sides of each other, which restrain each other and are interdependent. Only those who have light can There is darkness, and darkness can make light appear. Since dark magic can create undead creatures, the light magic can naturally do the same."

Liang Lidong continued: "Dark undead creatures are restrained by the light element, and the light undead creatures will naturally be restrained by dark magic. That coffin is used to control Lincoln. The box you found, if I can guess If it's correct, it should be a prop used to absorb Lincoln's light magic power. It's full of its magic power. If you give it back, his strength will be greatly increased."

Kyle was very smart, and he finally understood at this time: "In other words, if the quarry had not been developed, Lincoln would have been suppressed in the coffin forever, but the quarry was mined and the Taut family took it away. He found the box, which brought Lincoln back to life. Then he passed on the law of sleep to the members of the Taut family, while he stayed here and slowly regained his strength by eating human flesh. "

"In this way, when he first said that we should use light magic to purify it, it was actually a lie. If we use light magic, not only will it break the magic circle on the coffin, but it will even increase its strength. Teacher, right?"

Liang Lidong nodded: "That's true."

A wave of anger at being deceived and being played with good intentions welled up in Kyle's heart, but he suppressed it with all his strength, and then asked: "Teacher, since you knew this was a scam early on, why didn't you remind me earlier."

"Only the wrong things you have personally experienced will leave a deep impression." Liang Lidong smiled and said: "In this way, even if you are old in the future, you will still remember what happened today. In the future, you will not listen to anything casually before making any decisions. People say that this world is full of deception, and today’s lesson is enough for you to use for a lifetime.”

"Indeed." Kyle gritted his teeth and looked at the skeleton in front of him: "Can we kill it now, teacher?"

Alice's eyes widened as she listened. Like Kyle, she thought the skeleton was a good person. She couldn't help but walked to Emma, ​​gently tugged on Emma's clothes, and asked: "I see you are not surprised at all. Do you also know that this bone is not a good person?"

Emma nodded, she admired Liang Lidong even more now. In the illusion of prophecy, although Kyle had awakened the power of his bloodline, due to his lack of experience, he often listened to outsiders' opinions. He was also very stubborn and did not like to listen to the advice of his own people. He suffered a lot every day. Emma had to deal with the aftermath every time.

But now, Beta's little trick is enough for Kyle to remember for a lifetime. Being played by a skeleton like an idiot, he will think carefully no matter what he does in the future. This kind of educational method is really powerful.

The skeleton looked at the embarrassed Kyle and laughed loudly: "You idiot, you want to kill me? No one can kill me without a legendary dark magician coming over."

Liang Lidong took out the Pseudo-Emperor Fallen Sword from his space backpack and threw it to Kyle: "Indeed, except for dark magic, other magics want to kill him, and it is impossible to eliminate it. But Kyle, you can do it, Your blood magic can do it.”

A layer of blue flame began to attach to the long sword in Kyle's hand. When the skeleton saw this image, he actually took two steps back, his voice trembling: "No way, it's actually Phoenix!"

It’s indeed Phoenix! Liang Lidong confirmed what he was thinking. He had this suspicion a few days ago when Kyle used his first blood magic. Because according to the knowledge he learned in the game, among the special bloodlines, the only race that can cast blue flames is Phoenix.

flaming Phenix!

The fire phoenix is ​​said to wipe out all evil in the world.

Whether light or darkness, it is just a kind of force, and there is no distinction between good and evil. Only thoughts can differentiate between good and evil... The blue flame of the Fire Phoenix does not burn the camp of good and evil, but evil thoughts.

Furious, moving nimbly, the hero charged... Kyle appeared in front of the skeleton almost at a teleporting speed, and the blue sword directly pierced the skull's head.

Skeleton Lincoln's head exuded huge light power, but soon his bones turned into fly ash, and his soul was instantly burned into nothingness by the blue flames.

Liang Lidong's retina prompted: The elite mission is completed, and the mission rewards will be settled at midnight.

Elite missions are generally not difficult, but there are many traps. If you want to use light magic to purify Lincoln at the beginning, the mission will become a nightmare difficulty. If you give it the recovered light box, the mission difficulty will change. To the level of hell.

Hell-level difficulty...the four of them simply had no choice but to die.

Fortunately, Liang Lidong was cautious enough. (To be continued.)
