Three days have passed since two major cases broke out in Leipzig, the city of knowledge.
When Finn Heinrich von Leipzig finally returned by car to Leipzig, the city of knowledge to which he was most loyal, he immediately went to his residence.
When he first arrived at the door, the butler who had been notified in advance was already waiting here.
Seeing the old butler's hesitant expression, Count Leipzig guessed most of it.
——If nothing else happens, someone should be waiting for him at home.
"who?"
The Earl of Leipzig did not stop, but directly took off his thin coat and handed it to the old butler, and asked at the same time.
"It's General Karl..."
The old butler chased Leipzig, holding the coat he took off in his arms, and at the same time added: "In your study."
"He wasn't asked to turn over the things, right?"
The Earl of Leipzig asked subconsciously, but then he waved his hand directly: "Forget it, it doesn't matter...there's nothing wrong with you."
——Anyway, if old guy Karl wants to read his letters, these people can't stop him at all.
thought the Count of Leipzig.
And when he opened the door, he saw that familiar figure——
An old man with gray hair and a double-breasted trench coat-style military uniform stood quietly in front of his collection rack with his back straight and his crutches in front of him like a sword.
Seeing this scene, the Earl of Leipzig subconsciously breathed a sigh of relief.
His scarlet pupils narrowed slightly, and he smoothed back his golden hair, with a familiar friendly smile on his face. That smile made him look older than an earl or a prince.
He is more like a middle school teacher with a gentle temper who never gets anxious no matter how much he makes a joke.
"Long time no see, General... How are you?"
The Count of Leipzig smiled and asked tentatively.
General Leo Carl did not directly respond to his question, but said in a deep voice: "I thought you would be different from other Children of the Moon. The result... is still the same. Becoming a Son of the Moon means that
The depravity of human nature."
The moment the old man spoke, the Earl of Leipzig immediately realized... In the past, the voice that accompanied General Karl's words like the crackling of a campfire had completely disappeared. Although the voice was calm and stern, it no longer had that incomparable sound.
His overwhelming power made General Karl sound more like an ordinary old man.
...He really lost his demon incarnation.
Only then did the Count of Leipzig fully confirm the information he had received.
When the "Night of Stars" came, Leo Carl lost his power of transcendence - his power was completely transformed into the power of a warrior who adapted to the path.
This kind of cross-path power conversion is quite rare. Usually only a pillar god-level power can add a high-level path power to a soul out of thin air that the other party has not mastered.
And even if they are pillar gods, they are not without any constraints to accomplish this kind of thing. They still have to obey the underlying rules they have formulated.
At this moment, the Earl of Leipzig replied casually: "I can't resist my instinct, just like you can't refuse your mission...
"At least, the collections I have here are all done voluntarily. But that may not be the case for the soldiers you killed."
The huge wall that General Karl was looking at had spaces one after another.
Inside the grid are the works of art carefully crafted by the Count of Leipzig——
A woman with long white curly hair was placed in a white and slender porcelain vase, with her head placed on the mouth of the vase. Her peaceful expression was like a blooming lily, looking extremely holy under the light from above.
There is no doubt that this narrow and slender vase cannot hold a complete person at all - not even a complete body, at most it can only hold her internal organs.
In another grid, the heads of a pair of triplets were sewn together, looking like a mighty holy statue. They had three expressions of "happiness", "anger", and "sorrow" respectively, and the four extra arms
They also each posed and held magic spells. At this moment, their eyes were open and they were looking at General Karl.
A frightened young man's naked body was running on the snow in an awkward posture on all fours. The bulging muscles of his thighs and forearms reflected the texture of life. Behind him, there was a heart floating in the air.
The bullet was hit. There were pink petals solidified in the air floating around the bullet. A pair of stag antlers were embedded in the boy's forehead, as helpless as a young deer.
And in the middle of the entire wall is a twisted cherry blossom tree——
A mature woman raises her hands as if embracing the sun, showing off her fair and plump body. And this body is integrated with the cherry blossom tree, branches are pulled out from the flesh, and the complete whiteness is displayed in the gaps between the twisted tree trunks.
skin.
Her pupils were full of holy compassion, and her body glowed like a saint under the white light above her head.
——The most amazing thing is that everyone here is "alive". The vase girl's eyelids are still shaking weakly, and the tree man's chest is still rising and falling steadily.
The Earl of Leipzig raised the corners of his mouth gracefully, smoothed his hair, and asked ostentatiously: "What do you think? I think the masters of the path of beauty are at this level."
"Weren't you once a 'master'?"
General Karl sarcastically said: "Have you forgotten? What did you rely on to become a prince?"
The Count of Leipzig, Prince Heinrich, did not obtain this title through hereditary inheritance.
Valentine VI was a queen. But Finn Heinrich was once a commoner. He relied on his handsomeness and artistic attainments to become her third husband and obtain the title of prince. But
He is not a true extraordinary person on the path of beauty, but a demonologist... although he asks others to call him "Master".
In terms of seniority, the Count of Leipzig could once be regarded as the stepfather of the contemporary monarch.
Although he is considered a pretty boy, at least he has a good relationship with Valentine VI...if we don't mention the fact that when Valentine VI was fifty years old, he was only twenty-five years old.
Until the death of Valentine VI, he had not yet advanced to the fourth level. But relying on his special status, Finn Heinrich was also invited and joined the Rosicrucian Order.
The former Prince Heinrich hoped that his and Valentine VI's child would inherit the throne - even though the girl was only two years old at the time. Because of this, the unreasonable Prince Heinrich became a minister.
A thorn in my side, a thorn in my flesh.
In the end, he was easily assassinated...and relying on his adaptability to the path of love, he was resurrected by Hong Xiang himself.
The resurrected "Prince Heinrich" inherited the previous political legacy and changed his attitude... and instead supported Alfonso Valentine's rise to power.
This young monarch, who is only sixteen years old, is the successor favored by the Red Prime Minister.
It was thanks to the rewards of Valentine VII that today's "City of Knowledge, Leipzig" and the Count of Leipzig came into being.
And General Karl—when he was still an upright young man, he got acquainted with the Count of Leipzig.
He once regarded the Earl of Leipzig as his mentor, idol, and adoptive father... It was not until Leo Carl gradually became older that he came into contact with the highest-level circles of Star Antimony, and understood the darkness that he was not qualified to contact in the past, and then he gradually understood
How naive was my past self.
Faced with the sarcasm of General Karl, whom he single-handedly brought up, Count Leipzig just smiled gently: "It's not that I don't have the opportunity to become a real artist... But as a son of the moon, I can only embark on the path of transcendence.
The only correct way is to pursue the state of "perfect man".
"I obeyed my father's request, so I embarked on the road of transcendence. It's just that I'm really not very good at this road... Even if I had the chance to do it again and change my profession, I would still be stuck at the third level.
Can step onto the fourth level and become a great wizard.
"After that, General, you also know that I embarked on the path of authority - it was also my father's request. Of course, if this incident had not happened, I think I would have had the opportunity to embark on the path of beauty."
"hehe."
General Karl turned around and said sarcastically: "You listen to your 'father' in everything. Even a teenager will not be so good. I am not surprised that your ability to transcend the path cannot be improved."
"You don't seem to be in a good mood..."
The Earl of Leipzig just glanced at his collection wall and smiled gently: "It seems that you still feel pity. It doesn't have to be like this - I said, these people are all voluntary.
"It's not that I paid for them, it's that they fell in love with me. I live by absorbing their 'love'."
"So you just performed a harm transfer ritual? Do you think I can't tell?"
The old general sarcastically said: "You, one of the three giants of the 'Rosicrucian', are only third-level magicians. And I am the fifth-level transcendent..."
"What I don't know is what trick of the path of love did you use? The witch's potion? Or the enchanting kiss of the Moon Child?"
"neither."
The Earl of Leipzig put his hands behind his back and admired his work happily: "I will not do such a stupid thing... The love born by deception is fragile and thin. Use this kind of thing as a 'bed' for your own resurrection, then
But it's too dangerous.
"—The answer is, I shared myself with them."
