Chapter 937: The Legend of the Hermitage

However, we all know that the so-called fear of cold is just an excuse, and as long as a person with a normal IQ hears it, it will be impossible to believe it.

However, we also need to know that the Plateau Empire of Vecchia is a far more stubborn and xenophobic place than the rest of the countries. Artoria could have built a seclusion for the Bonniels under domestic pressure, but they themselves would never be treated fairly among the Nords, and it was more likely that they would be closely monitored by the Skyrim Castle all year round, and they were destined to have no happy situation. If that were the case, it would be no different from going to the Commonwealth entirely.

"And we really owe it to Mr. Gillit and Miss Asuna, who invited us to Neosfia, otherwise we would not have a place to stay. Later, by chance, I became a member of the Evergreen Retreat, and I finally established a comfortable little home. Bonnier nodded gratefully at Gillit.

"You don't have to thank me, in fact, I didn't have much kindness in the first place. We simply feel that you have done a great job in the campaign that completely wiped out the Empire of the Dead and the Plague King, and that it should not end in a tragic way. The half-elf swordsman was really a sincere gentleman, and he was not willing to accept such a thank you from the other party, but he couldn't help but change his words.

"On the other hand, however, your talents, your knowledge, and even your very existence are a great threat to the entire civilized world. You have a great talent for alchemy, and you have all the magical knowledge of the whole of Henas, and now you have almost infinite time to devote yourself to necromancy and alchemical weapons...... Let's be honest. You're actually becoming another plague king. You still had complete sanity and judgment, perhaps because the love between you and Lady Selmina was able to transcend the erosion and imprisonment of negative energy. But perhaps it is Kazan's desire for revenge that outweighs the undead's obsession with the living. At this moment when the Lord of Plague has fallen, no one can guarantee it. Will you and your lady become depraved anytime soon, uh, or rather, return to what the undead lords should be. ”

He said it realistically, even cruelly and cold-bloodedly, but there was no way to refute it. For a truly good and responsible leader, the consideration should not be absolute justice, in other words, the Virgin bitch, but naked "justice of results" and "justice of the majority." Hidden dangers that will endanger the vast majority of people and order should actually be nipped in the bud.

If you change to a more decisive master. Maybe there will be a reason for the couple to be "killed in battle" a long time ago, and then a large-scale funeral memorial service will be held, a few insincere eulogies will be spoken, and a bunch of dead people will be given posthumous names that are completely useless.

It's a pity that the leaders of the coalition forces at that time were either masters like Artoria who were full of discipline, or the Fanya elves and dragon knights who played soy sauce, or they were stupid colleagues who were full of fat brains and were blinded by lard. By the time they reacted, the non-mainstream undead couple had already left. Tut. It was Karin or Hurricane who was in charge there...... I'll go for it, that scene is so cruel to imagine, I really can't imagine it.

"We talked to Shino and the others. The Pogniers' stay in Henas will only complicate the situation and make it possible to leave. But it can't be completely separated from the surveillance of the Dragon Knights. It just so happened that they also had the idea of returning to Neosfia, so they finally gave me this task......"

"Is it that once someone has the possibility of getting out of control, you will do it immediately?"

Killitt did not answer positively. The implication is that this is a tacit acquiescence, and he adds: "In addition." The Throat of the World also sends a dragon knight every six months to check it out. ”

In all fairness, stand on the position of the "Interpol" of the Dragon Knights who maintain the normal order of civilized society. They can do this far, which is already considered benevolent.

"And yet, your mind eventually changed?" Lu Xi looked at the other party: "Why, you all get along quite happily." ”

"Because I met the elders." Killitt smiled slightly, "It's been an amazing experience. Before I met them, I never thought that there would be special immortals who had survived for so long, from the time of the Age of the Gods. They have never lost their memories of their lives, their missions, and even their sense of honor and morality. ”

"Age of the Gods......" Although Lu Xi was still mentally prepared, he still couldn't help but widen his eyes.

I'll it, isn't that at least 10,000 years old? This is the old driver of the old driver! Count the super old monsters who have survived most of the Epochs of Revival and Change, and they should all be considered your juniors.

Lu Xi stared at the other party with a stunned gaze, as if he had seen the mummy directly resurrected and jumped up and tap-danced in front of him.

“…… Like you, are there a lot here? Lu Xi looked outside the door: "Those outside, well, I mean that Mr. Mondson, and the people who teamed up to cast a spell on me to imprison, they won't be the same as you, the time of existence can be counted in epochs, right?" ”

"Of course, it won't get to that point." The elder smiled dumbly, and then said: "To be exact, after living for a long time like me, I have almost lost all my passion and emotion, and even the years before my life seem to be about to become a dream, and there are only five people left. To be more precise, the undead are the undead, and if you want to maintain your personality and spirit for a long time, you must have very harsh conditions. And we are the only place in the world that can meet these conditions. ”

His voice was indeed very calm, as if it were true, as he had said, that the time of existence had been as long as that of all present civilizations, and that it had worn away almost all his passions......

"So, Little Friend Lu Xi, first of all, I have to ask you, how did you know about this Green Shade Building and the existence of the Evergreen Hermitage?"

I know it from the mission and equipment descriptions...... Of course, Lu Xi couldn't say that, so he just took out the evergreen star.

"Evergreen star?" See the old ghost of this dagger. Gujing Wubo's plain and quiet expression finally had obvious ups and downs. He looked at Lu Xi with some incredulous eyes, and then at the short sword placed on the table. The smile was a little complicated and sour: "Isn't this the choice of fate?" ”

This is the aura of the protagonist, not the fate of Raushzi. Only story events that can be triggered by the protagonist. That's what can be called an event.

"This is the sword of Lord Hitzcliff, the first leader of the Evergreen Order...... He was defeated by the sword of the Abyss Prime Minister Orondal, and he himself was refined into the Knight of the Abyss. The elder muttered, "Unexpectedly, the thing ended up in your hands. ”

"That can only show that that little fresh meat of the Flame Demon is really very cute, and his master actually gave him such a good thing. Of course, it is also possible that it was touched by the treasure trove of Orodal. Considering the demonic discipline, this kind of thing is definitely done. "Lu Xi immediately explained how he killed a fire demon Orondar priest in the ancient capital of Titans, how he got the sword from him, and how he met that elven royal sister Kaileshien in Seroxia? Red. How did she get the information about the Green Shade Building from her, and told everyone everything.

Of course, as for how he was able to kill an Orodal priest two years ago, and why he deduced the existence of the Evergreen Hermitage with a short sword, of course, it can be completely covered up with the so-called Spring and Autumn brushwork.

"Kelly? It was a very good child, with good talent and character, but unfortunately he was a little impetuous. We had hoped that she would be able to accept some of the classical heritage in its entirety, but she seems to prefer to venture out into the big world. But. There are not a few companions like this in history, and the reason why those of us who have not seen the light get enough information and intelligence from the outside world is really thanks to their frequent letters. The old ghost said to Lu Xi.

I see. In that case, that Faceless 883 must be like that.

He knew that there was a green building, but he didn't know that the evergreen hermit existed. As a matter of fact. We have a long-standing relationship with the Faceless Society. We need outside intelligence, and they need our capabilities. to help them train their men. In this sense, these people walk in the gray area between darkness and daylight. In fact, they are all a group of pragmatic people. They are more secretive and don't mind who we are. The old man laughed.

"As for the Friends of the Red Forest, it is an industry that was built 50 years ago by the previous president, Lord Gilfert, and originally it was just to leave us a base and identity where we can communicate with the outside world. But when the bar first opened, we contained a few black (meow) people who were hunted down, but we didn't expect to cause more trouble. When we completely subdue these troublesome people and things, we find that before we know it, the Friends of the Red Forest has become an urban legend of the underground world of Neosfia, a so-called safe zone established in the world of black (meow). ”

"According to the gangsters: all fighting should stop here, or else you will be cursed by the spirit of morality in the underworld of Neosphia...... I heard this urban legend when I felt Neosfia. After returning from Henas, Asuna went to visit relatives in Twilight Island, and with the help of Mr. Mu, the business was regularized, and my adventurer committed an occupational disease, so he thought about unraveling the secret of this urban legend. ”

"That's where you go?" This is also the setting of the protagonist template.

That's why I said, everything is guided by fate! Because fate itself is a part of all things in nature, a kind of operation law in the dark. The old ghost once again showed that kind of godly smile, and said to Lu Xi: "Speaking of which, it's been so long, I really haven't had time to introduce myself, right?" My name is Nick Fruss? Nornd, the chief knight of the Forbidden Army of the Aydra dynasty, the first-class Guardian of the Holy Silver Tree, and the paladin of Sefastia, the god of nature. ”

"Of course, that's just my name and identity when I was alive. I am now a dead man, the Edra dynasty, the last unified dynasty of the Elves, has collapsed, and the Holy See of Sephastia has long since fallen in the war of the gods. So, I'm just the third president of the Evergreen Order, and the old Nick that everyone loves. There was a slight self-deprecation in his words, but there was a hint of kindness and curiosity in Lu Xi's eyes: "Kelly is willing to tell you about our existence, Mr. Killitt also values you so much, and I do often listen to other people tell your stories, and I can be sure that you are a person with a true noble soul and deep wisdom, and you should be trustworthy." ”

Ah, does that really sound like me? While I'll admit that sounds a bit dark, why is there always a bit of embarrassment and shame?

Could it be that my friendliness aura has affected you as well?

Having said that, we already have the aura of favorability given by the goddess of life, Sister Elune, and all goddess of life believers will be born with a sense of intimacy and friendliness towards the young master. Moreover, that goddess sister was originally Sephastia's younger sister, and basically inherited all of the latter's godhead, priesthood, and power. The breath should have a lot in common.

"I'm willing to answer all your questions, as long as you promise not to reveal our presence and whereabouts to anyone, including Tidlet? His Royal Highness Lin Ge and His Excellency Grand Elder Tifario, is it okay? ”

I can't believe you know so much about my relationships!

“…… If your existence really won't be any disadvantage to them, I can keep my mouth shut, and I can even convince Nicole, and my childhood sweetheart Nivia? Miss Lin Ge kept it secret. Well, let you know, she was there the last time we met Miss Kelly. Lu Xi said embarrassedly.

That being said, I'm actually more interested in the intelligence of this secret organization. Such an organization, which was obviously established by the undead of the remnants of the Ancient Elf Empire, why did it keep hiding in the cracks of the world as a hermit, but it did not completely escape from the world. In addition, since they are members of the ancient elves, why are they unwilling to deal with the current high-level elves? You must know, Daddy Tifario aside, Sister Tido, as the highest priestess of the goddess of life and the supreme leader of politics and religion of the Nolda Wood Elves, can actually be regarded as the seventh dynasty of the ancient elf empire, that is, the collateral bloodline of the last generation of the Aedra dynasty, in a sense, she can also be regarded as one of the heirs of the legal system of the ancient empire that has perished! ”

Of course, if that's the case, our eldest cousin Asuna is also counted.

"That's enough. For thousands of years, we really don't want to disturb the world, nor do we want to be disturbed by the world, including our clansmen, relatives and friends before our death. Although Lu Xi's attitude was a little sharp, Old Elder Nick also seemed to feel acceptable.

"So, where do I start...... Well, Age of the Gods? The period of the Unified Dynasty? Well, well, let's start with the fuse that led to the War of the Gods, and everything that followed, the Golden King Gil Salad. ”

Your opening is too grandiose, and the crooked building is too serious, right? Lu Xi can be sure that this will be a rather long story that can debunk a lot of the black history of the old era, and suddenly there is an urge to ask someone to send some popcorn and coke.

(System: Found Evergreen Hermitage President Nick Furs?) Nornd, complete the quest "The Secret of Evergreen", gain 5000 experience points, and trigger the quest S-rank "Lost Legend". (To be continued.) )
