"The Desert Islands is a very interesting place, but people who have been there for a long time cannot understand the unique customs there. It has a large island full of deserts, surrounded by more than twenty lush islands, controlling a large area of ​​water. There are iron, coal, gems and endless sand on the island. Only the island can find food and drink, but only food and drink can be found."
Vantman sat down, and his servant also brought a fruit plate at this time, which contained several fruits from tropical and subtropical fields. The owner of the manor made a gesture of inviting, but the man was so mean that he did not explain how to eat these fruits. The Principality of Aria was in a temperate zone, and the road to the south was blocked by Feinberg, and the sea was not safe. The locals could not see these fruits at all, let alone eat them.
"I haven't eaten these things for a long time." Feiqi smiled and picked up the lychees, skillfully stripped them away, and frowned after taking a bite: "It's a little longer, and the flesh is yellower. Only by using enough ice to maintain the right temperature can it be transported for long distances."
"Try this, does it look like a crimson apple?"
Feiqi took the mangosteen, cut the nails and peeled the shell, and then took out the flesh remotely with his mind so that his fingers would stay dry and not become sticky. He looked at Vantman, shook his head and said, "Although you are a little unhappy to be tempted by you, I will forgive you for the fact that these fruits are usually hard to see."
While Fitch said, he picked up the fruit with his spiritual remote control, peeled it apart, cut it apart, and then gave it to Benny and Shani. Shani was very reserved to catch it with a tray, first looked at midnight, and confirmed that it was not interested, and then waited for a while before seeing if there was a chance to send it back to Feich's mouth. Benny opened her mouth unceremoniously, enjoying the feeling of being fed.
"I have only a few good things in total. Even if I want to continue, I can't do anything about it. It seems that the gap between the viscount and the Count is still very big." Van Tman waved his hand and asked all the servants to leave, then leaned forward and said: "Baron Goron has lived in the Desert Islands for twelve years. He has a fleet of ships, with more than twenty ships of all sizes. His baron title is not inheritance, but bought in the south with blood money. Be careful of him."
"Blood money?"
"Kidnapping, threatening, murder, the money earned in this way is called blood money. In the desert islands, blood money has another meaning. Transport slaves to the central desert island to grab territory to mine, and then turn the ore into swords and gold coins." Van Trmann smiled and lowered his voice, "He found me, I found him, we helped and use each other. But now I find a viscount that may not be able to suppress him."
"If you can't hold back, you should go find my father. I'm not an earl, I'm just a priest, monster hunter and..."
"With the magician." Van Trman took the conversation. "Feich, let's say that, my daughter is sixteen years old and is already at the age of marriage. Although I have three sons, if they are all dead, my son-in-law will get the title of Viscount from my daughter. Now, Goron is already pursuing my daughter, but fortunately the two are not doing well yet. I wonder, do you have this interest? You have enough knowledge and don't have the responsibility for marriage now, and the most important thing is that you are good at pursuing girls..."
"Stop it first." Feiqi waved his hand and said, "If you think Goron is a dangerous fire pit, then say that, I am a terrifying hell. It's just the first time you and I have met each other and don't know each other. Then when I was about to discuss the witch and ghost soldiers, it suddenly became such a profound problem? If you are really so urgent, why not just do it? Is it too late to find foreign aid now?"
Van Trman's face changed and began to sweat out again irritated. This was very abnormal. Feiqi used ice magic to control the temperature around him to about fifteen degrees. Normal people should feel a little cold. He just sat and said a few words and started sweating. Feiqi grabbed his hand, and the touch from his fingertips could feel his heart beating violently abnormally. "Didn't you go to the teaching master to find the bishop and pastor to see your physical condition?"
"No, I'm fine. I'm safe as long as I'm protected by the Witch Ghost Soldiers." Vantman shook his head and wanted to break his wrist, but he didn't succeed. He just looked at him, and the Witch Ghost Soldier next to him had already taken two steps forward. Seeing this, Shani took a step forward and stood face to face before the Witch Ghost Soldiers. She stood quietly, and the Witch Ghost Soldiers suddenly couldn't move, and stood still like a statue.
"You have some kind of spell item on you. I just felt its spell power fluctuation." Feiqi looked around and no one noticed this, so he turned around and squinted his eyes to search for traces of spell fluctuations. Soon, he locked Vantman's ruby ​​belt buckle, and it was this thing that emitted energy just now.
At this time, Van Tyman's eyes were full of anxiety. It was not the kind of anxiety that he was about to be killed by money, but the anxiety that he was worried that he would not be rescued. He gasped violently, and could shout to call for all the guests, but he just looked up at the sky and never bowed his head. Feiqi thought for a while, using the magic of aura to cover the magic, and took off the ruby ​​belt buckle.
"Finally..." Vantman said two words, then slowly fainted, and snored at the same time. Feige patted his face hard, then poured some water before he woke up quietly.
"I knew you could save me, thank you..." Fantman's face turned black and his rosy skin disappeared, but he looked extremely tired. "There was a curse on that thing. He lied to me that it could make me stronger and have stronger endurance, but in fact he wanted to control me. Later I learned that Goron could do magic, and he also had three spells. He had always used magic to control slaves. If he hadn't been afraid of the witch and ghost soldiers, he would have killed me long ago. He was, why did that curse gem have no effect on you?"
Feiqi looked at Fantman coldly and lost his last bit of affection for him. Fortunately, he read a lot of silver-sealed spell books, and had a deep impression of those evil, sinister, spells full of various deceitful traps, and had never let go of his vigilance. This was why he would use the aura shielding spell to isolate spell detection to protect himself. Although the cursed gem is in his hands, the aura shielding completely isolated its sense to the outside world. Just as the priest could not detect Fitch's devilish aura, the gem did not know that it was on "someone", so it would not have the curse effect.
Evil cursed items are often baited by the harmless appearance of humans and animals. They will only play the role of cursed after they are confirmed to have entered the trap. Feiqi wrapped it with a light shield, and then turned it over and over with the remote control of his mind for careful observation. With his familiarity with spell runes, especially his understanding of various evil spells, he quickly understood the function of this gem.
"This is a blood-sucking and ancestral stone. The blood-sucking ancestral stone should be on Ge Long, right? He uses this to control you and collect your power for his use, just like a contract. How many blood-sucking and ancestral subordinates do he have?"
"In addition, I should have six, maybe there are hidden ones." Vantman tried hard to prevent himself from falling asleep, and said with his eyes stretched out: "If you know this, hurry up and report to the sect and ask the judge or the paladin to arrest him."
"Why don't you order the witch and ghost soldiers to deal with him at this time?"
"The Witch Ghost Soldiers were sold to me. I know these soldiers will definitely protect me, but I have also heard that Witch Ghost Soldiers may defeat anyone, but they are impossible to defeat the great slave lords of the desert islands. There may be some insurance measures. Goron is a lord. He may be fine, but he still has to be afraid that his subordinates and my Witch Ghost Soldiers and servants will fight against each other and lose all their losses, losing enough deterrent power and affecting his status in the desert islands, so he has to keep me."
"As long as he is sure to consolidate his power on the mainland, he will swallow you without hesitation." Feiqi thought for a while: "It's your idea that he wants to challenge me, right?"
Van Trman gritted his teeth, hesitated for a while, and finally nodded vigorously: "Yes. You are very famous. Being able to better establish your reputation, which is beneficial to his future development. He is a pirate and slave owner, and the people of the Desert Islands believe this theory. But what I think is that your brother will lead a team of Paladins in the Holy Trinity Castle. No matter whether you win or lose, he will always come to deal with the hateful Goron!"
It turns out that even Andrew is in his calculations? This Vantman is the guy who puts harming others and self-interest for the most. Even when saving himself, he only needs others to work hard to make himself happy.
He calculated this and that, Feiqi could see, so what about Goron? Is it true or false to focus on reputation? Feiqi thought about it. The desert islands were narrow and the resources were insufficient to support the wars that were always high and intense. Therefore, they formed a custom that paid more attention to "fame", or belief was also possible.
Unlimitedly pushing up the importance of individual bravery, advocating the power at the spiritual level, limiting the conflict between two forces to the level of individual competition. For example, if only ten people kill, it is worse than a hundred people kill. If you can't compare with your reputation, you can directly discuss winning or losing.
This is meaningless in Aria. The winner must be hedged by the Knights before the conclusion can be seen. Feiqi looked at the gem and pointed at it and said to Vantman: "Did you use a similar method to control the witch and ghost soldiers? Where is the control mechanism?"
Van Tman's face has never been as pale as it is today. Even the yellowish and thick dark circles of his skin changed color at this time. He stammered and did not want to speak, intending to escape, but he knew he could not escape. Feiqi nodded and said, "It's true that this is the case. No wonder you dare not go to the Holy Three Castle Cultivator to ask for help from the priest. It turned out that he was worried that the evil magic would be discovered!"
"I will die without the witch and ghost soldiers, and I will definitely not give it to you. Only when the greater evil disappears will I...I..."
"Well, I understand that your concern comes from fear, and fear is the most commonly used weapon of evil. It can reduce your confidence in goodness before it starts to hurt you." Feiqi sighed: "The priest of the Goddess of Truth, the priest of the Thunder Goddess of Truth, will take the eradication of evil as his duty. I think you are waiting for me to take the initiative to save you. After all, this is the requirement of the Scripture."
A smile finally appeared on Vantman's face, but he quickly covered his smile and turned into a begging look: "Can you save me?"
"I'm sorry, although I am a priest, I'm in a bad mood today." Feiqi threw it casually, threw the cursed gem back to Van Turman, and at the same time removed the aura-blocking spell. Van Turman's face was horrified, but he still had to tremble his hands and put the gem back on his belt. In just a few seconds, he became rosy and energetic again, just sweating.
"Where are you, you can do whatever you should do, even if you report Goron, I don't care. I guess he is not showing up yet, is he preparing some magic? Hey, look at your eyes and you will know that I guessed it right. Vantman, you think you are very smart, but in fact you haven't figured out one thing. In fact, no matter whether you have this curse gem on you, you are serving him. Although you plan in your mind what if I lose, what if he wins, in fact, you make a judgment based on the result of my loss. Think carefully, and when you really think about it and start to repent, maybe rescue will come."
Feiqi stood up and took Shani and Benny away, leaving Fantman and his witch soldiers. "Sir, he has been watching us behind him." Shani could see the situation behind him without looking back, and Feiqi was the same.
"Yes. I think if we want to leave here, we will encounter attacks from witch and ghost soldiers on the way. Vantman will not let us really return to the sect with the truth. However, if we stay and fight against Goron, he will still have hope and will not order the witch and ghost soldiers to intercept. Based on this consideration, he still has the gems to carry, which can still play a certain confusing role. But I am more worried about what Goron is doing at the moment."
"What is that blood-sucking derivative stone?" Benny asked.
"That is an evil spell that uses one's vitality to strengthen another, and at the same time it has the effect of controlling and imprisoning thoughts. I... I have seen it in the Silver Sage Book, the banned spell of the church."
Feiqi once used the "Environment Transfer" spell to help survive midnight, and the Environment Transfer spell is an improved version of the blood-sucking-derived spell. This "improvement" turns the original master-slave relationship into a symbiotic relationship, thereby increasing the power of the spell. The blood-sucking derivative cannot create a demon pet, but it is more primitive and evil, and is close to the devil's soul contract in terms of control.
There are detailed records of the blood-sucking spell in the Silver Seal Spell Book, but it does not say what it has to do with the slave owners of the Desert Islands, let alone the witch and ghost soldiers. This is related to the long-term lack of connection with the Desert Islands in the mainland, and only simply regard them as "slave dealers" and "pirates", and always cannot change their preconceived contempt.
"The blood-sucking spell allows the controller to absorb the physical strength of the servants, so that he will not feel tired, the wound recovery speed is accelerated, and the experience can be concentrated for a long time. An evil mage encountered by the church put the blood-sucking spell on several bears, which made him seize the opportunity to tear the two guards apart, and ran out of the prison. Fortunately, he caught him back afterwards."
"Wouldn't that mean that Goron uses the power of many people to fight an opponent? No wonder he only participated in single competitions and did not sign up for the melee!"
Fitch nodded: "Beney is right. Although he can have greater strength and endurance, he still has only two eyes and cannot cope with the particularly chaotic situation. Then, he is a desert islander, perhaps he has been a pirate, and he is confident that he has the ability to master balance to deal with my greasy technique. Well... I think I can formulate tactics."
He didn't plan to leave in fact, so Feiqi took Benny and Shani to the other end of the birthday celebration, where Tron was practicing his "evil eyes". He used too much force and did not achieve the effect of driving men and women. Instead, he was about the same as "Clean Street Tiger". He occupied half of the buffet table by himself, and was eating fruit pudding in great depression.
"What you said doesn't work." Tron complained: "I still can't fit in them."
"The knight is something that makes people follow, not to integrate into others." Feiqi said: "There is a dangerous thing left to you. Can you help me with it?"
"Danger doesn't matter, as long as it's a just cause." Tron looked around and lowered his voice, "Feich, aren't you going to make a reason to let me help you kidnap a beauty?"
"If you want to fall, please don't pull me!" Feiqi said: "I find that this duel is very dangerous and there is a possibility of chaos. I hope you can be fully prepared to block the witch and ghost soldiers when an accident occurs, protect the guests and hosts here, and give priority to protecting the Viscount Gust."
"But I am your duel assistant. I'll protect others, what do you do?"
"The hardest part of this mission is that you have to believe me," Fitch said. "Don't be shaken in any situation. The enemy will deceive you in various ways. You must firmly believe that I am with you. What I want to do is to eradicate evil and never join in with evil."
