Renus threw the ball to Gordon again. Now it's time for him to make a decision.
To be honest, Renus's mention is indeed very attractive to him. A pure, beautiful, and powerful paladin in the eyes of outsiders, but he is his secret lover, and he is obedient to him...... Just thinking about it makes my heart pound, and it is full of the sense of accomplishment that can only be found in men.
"Mr. Gordon, are you still hesitating? I ask this condition because I know that you are interested in me. β
"Uh......" Gordon touched his cheek. Is he really so simple that everything he thinks is written on his face?
Renus was amused by Gordon's movements, and a slight smile arose: "As you said before, you know my character, and you have a thorough grasp of my rules. I don't think a busy mage would spend a lot of time observing and understanding a woman if he wasn't interested in her. β
Well, Renus was right again.
However, the other party had a little misunderstanding that he was indeed very interested in this young lady of the Holy Warrior, but he did not have that strong affection.
Facing a very beautiful girl, traveling together, fighting together, eating together, resting together, chatting together. Over time, it is natural to have some good feelings. But this also stops at paying more attention to something and nothing, or going to bed before going to bed.
With Anissa, the goddess of love, on top, Gordon never thought of actually pursuing Renus. He is not a collector with obsessive-compulsive disorder, and when he sees a stunning beauty, he has to include her in the harem.
Gordon sighed, "I'm sorry, Miss Renus, I can't agree to your request. β
"Why?" Gordon's refusal surprised Miss Paladin, and her words quickened, and she said like a cannon: "Although I use my body as a bargaining chip. But that doesn't mean I'm a casual woman. Mr. Gordon, I have not been touched by a man, my body is pure. Sure, you may not care about that, but I do. I will only do this once in my life. β
"No, you're misunderstanding......"
Before Gordon could finish speaking, Renus added, "Or, you're afraid that after I have an intimate relationship with you." To pester you and ask you to help me get revenge? You don't have to worry about that. Whether it's the Emperor of Northumbard, the vanguard of Tiamat, Baron. Karak, or the ordinary soldiers of the Imperial Forbidden Army, or the nobles of Ferreton who have a foreign enemy, will be avenged by me. I don't need help from anyone else. β
"No, no, no......" Gordon said three words in a row. These are the details. There is really only one central problem we face now: I have made it my highest priority to stop the Three Holy Baptist conspiracy. And you. Helping the Goddess retrieve the Blood Grail is the highest priority. And now. These two points seem to be in conflict. How about you wait for me to set up the teleportation circle and let the army of Blue Water City enter the dungeon, and then I'll help you? Of course, it's free and doesn't require any compensation. We're friends, aren't we? β
Renus looked at Gordon quietly. The figure of the mage was reflected in the ruby green eyes, and there seemed to be a hint of strange emotion. She shook her head: "It's too late. Someone is using the Crystal Tower to extract the energy of the Blood Grail. After you set up the teleportation array, you can't get it back. This artifact, which was already damaged, was now on the verge of collapse with an energy imbalance. Another hour or two. I'm afraid it's going to be ruined. β
Renus wasn't lying. The previous strange spiritual influence, the blood-red mist that appeared from time to time, and the vibration of the entire crystal tower just now, were all due to the influence of the Holy Grail.
Moreover, this kind of abnormal damage, which can be said to be a surge of energy, may well mean that there is also a big explosion that destroys the mière.
What a tricky question......
However, the god of fate seemed to feel that Gordon did not face enough problems and needed to make trouble again, and the core hall of this crystal tower suddenly broke into a large group of guests.
Because the energy cast by the Blood Grail was so strong, Gordon's senses were much dullerβjust as it was hard to hear a conversation in a 12o decibel environment.
He didn't even show up with these intruders.
The person who came was the purple-robed female mage, Ephlan. Feng. Eisenstein.
This unexpected encounter made both sides stunned.
Gordon and Renus didn't expect that anyone other than them would be able to find such a secret place. And Ephran also didn't expect that the secret place she had worked so hard to reach had already been taken by others.
"The Blood Grail of Tydos......" Efran just glanced at Gordon and Renus with her slightly cold and mean eyes, and focused all her attention on the Blood Grail on the silver pedestal.
"Haha! I've finally found you, I've finally found you! Efran laughed, her voice full of ecstasy.
Gordon and Renus glanced at each other, then silently prepared for battle.
"Oh, this isn't Aiden. Lindeman? After fully releasing the joy in her heart, Efran finally looked at Gordon. She still calls the latter by the fake name she used to confer when they first met.
"Hello, beautiful Lady Efran, what a coincidence." Gordon smiled.
The opponent was obviously coming for the Blood Grail, but Renus would never give up the Blood Grail, so the battle was inevitable. Still, Gordon hoped to delay for some time, at least to find out where his companions had gone after he had fallen unconscious during the night.
"It's not a coincidence at all." Efran smiled extremely coldly, "According to the information I have found in the literature, in order to enter this hall, you need to unlock the six Nine Ring Spell Seals. How is it possible to enter here without having a clear purpose and being well prepared? β
"Master, why bother talking nonsense with those two people, just kill them. Last night, we had quite a few deaths. Eflan's side said a man wearing a feathered helmet and looking like a captain of the guard. He gritted his teeth and stared at Gordon and Renus, the hatred in his eyes as if it could be turned into a substantial sword.
It seems that in the conflict at night, the other side suffered a lot.
"Jackson, don't be impulsive. That conflict was just a misunderstanding. The culprit was the blood-red mist escaping from the Blood Grail. There is a power in that mist that makes people crazy. Efran persuaded his subordinates before speaking to Gordon, "Mr. Aiden, perhaps we can sit down and talk about the ownership of this great artifact peacefully." After all, your employer, Miss Yashna, has already run away, so why should you be loyal to that spoiled aristocratic little girl? β
When Efran saw Gordon appear here, he thought that he was a free mage hired by the nobles, so he naturally came to the conclusion that Ashna didn't know where she learned about the legend of the Blood Grail of Titus, and then led a large group of people into the dungeon to hunt for treasure. Now that Ashna is gone, there's no need for Gordon to be hostile to him for a little commission.
Seeing that Gordon didn't speak, Epran thought her persuasion had worked, and she added, "I know, Mr. Aiden. An artifact of infinite power is extremely tempting for any mage. But you should know that without targeted preparation, it will be difficult for mortals to grasp the power of the artifact. This Holy Grail of Titus Blood is something that only I am entitled to own. β
When Gordon heard this, he wanted to laugh in his heart. Whether it is herself as a blood mage, or Renus as a holy knight of blood and vengeance, I am afraid that she is more qualified to possess the Blood Holy Grail than Eplan. However, he didn't break it, but said in a deliberative tone: "Then Ms. Efran, what kind of conditions are you willing to offer to let Renus and me withdraw from this competition?" β
In a show of sincerity, he pulled Renus back a few steps, revealing that he was not determined to have the Blood Grail.
"A wise choice." Efran laughed, "I can give you a large sum of money, twenty thousand gold coins, how about it?" And you will gain my personal friendship and the favor of the Eisensteins. β
The purple-robed female mage twisted her flexible waist like a snake and took a few steps in front of Gordon, as if she was showing off her mature and beautiful body.
"This is the aristocratic woman who can really trade her body as a trade item and exchange it for benefits again and again. Renus is so reserved compared to her. β
Gordon could see at a glance what Evelan's plan was up to. But it's a pity that he didn't have a relationship with Jude. Frey's bad taste as a "cave brother".
"Twenty thousand gold coins is really a lot of wealth, enough for me and my lover to live a fairly comfortable life." Gordon glanced at Renus. The latter stood there silently, as if he had really accepted this identity.
"But," Gordon added, "isn't 20,000 gold coins a little less for an artifact?" β
"And what do you want?" Eflan remained patient.
"By the way, can I ask where my companions have gone?" Gordon abruptly changed the subject.
Efran was stunned for a moment, wondering why Gordon suddenly mentioned it. She thought for a moment and said, "Ashna, this little girl, is with a big man with a two-handed giant sword, and a few other warriors. The priest and the other young mage couple were captured by some warriors in spiked black armor......"
The young mage couple mentioned by the other party should be Ruth and Jiaxi. And the warriors in the spiked black armor are exactly the same as the minions of the Three Holy Baptist Church.
"Ruth, they were caught? It's not going to be good. If they can't withstand the interrogation, tell the plan...... It seems that we have to hurry. β
Gordon made up his mind and asked, "What about Jude. What about Frey? β
"Oh, you mean the glamorous Mr. Battle Priest?" Effran's smile suddenly turned extremely sinister, "He's right here. β
The purple-robed female mage snapped her fingers, and the warrior behind her snapped the white on a stretcher. (To be continued......)
