Chapter 136 Loss and Determination
"You" Raymond's stunned stunned gradually turned to it. He seemed to want to say something. But blood kept pouring out of his mouth. Never able to spit out a full syllable again.
Leia's face turned pale. I want to pounce. But there seemed to be concerns. Just standing there and trembling. She bit her hand hard. so that I don't cry out loud. The right hand involuntarily strokes the lower abdomen.
Richard still looked Raymond in the eye. Those pupils had begun to slowly lose focus. But it was still calm. It's calm and almost cold. It seems that even the end of his own life is not worth moving.
Richard suddenly stretched out his fingers and popped out a blue spark the size of a fingernail. Accurately ejaculated into Leia's lower abdomen. This point of Mars is extremely domineering. It burned through Reya's body in an instant. Coming out from behind. Then it didn't go into the wall. I don't know how much deeper.
Leia exclaimed. Look down at your abdomen. His face turned pale in an instant. In the middle of her abdomen. Leaving a hole the thickness of a finger. The wound has long since crystallized. For a Sanctuary powerhouse. This injury is actually not serious. But the location of the wound made her want to scream. She really couldn't stop screaming.
Richard turned a deaf ear. Still looking at Raymond. Said slowly: "The child in Leia's belly has been a month. If I'm not wrong. It's not your child who is born there. It's yourself. Your soul and memories. It has been quietly transferred to the past. So even if I choose to kill you in the end. You can still save it. Pity. Now that embryo has been destroyed by me. It uses the power of the blue moon. So you can die with peace of mind. in this world. There was no Raymond again. ”
Raymond's face was genuinely stunned this time. Staring at Richard, his gaze was full of inquiry. Richard finally whispered in his ear, "It's not just scholars and mages who can see through the reality of the world. ”
Raymond's eyes flashed with relief. His eyes finally closed slowly. Richard let go of his hand. Let Raymond's body fall to the ground.
Look at Raymond's body, which has completely lost his life. Richard didn't know what it was like. From the time he set foot on Faust until now. In Richard it was seven or eight years. At Raymond it was fifteen years. The two have been fighting openly and secretly. The battle has not come to an end until now.
This moment. Richard was a little stunned. One less weighty opponent. In a sense. It is also equivalent to one less confidant.
I don't know how long it took. Richard looked at Rhea. He said, "I've called the pastor." It doesn't matter if you hurt. A few days of rest will do. ”
Leia stopped reacting when Richard said that Raymond had broken the final layout. Slumped to the ground. She didn't cry now. There was no fuss. Just hands on your abdomen. Staring blankly at the floor. She was actually a long, long time ago. It's early to trade with Richard. I have a hunch that it will eventually come to an end in the way it is today. Richard was a man who could not tolerate betrayal. And Raymond never really bends his knees before defeat.
Until just now. She realized that the fetus in her womb turned out to be another Raymond. also knew that Richard could not have left Raymond. But for her. Whoever is in the womb is the same. Those were her children.
Richard sighed. Walked out of the room. A moment later, the split carried him to the sky. Fly at full speed in the direction of Bluewater Oasis City.
Several priests walked into the room. Begin examining Rhea's injuries. Treatments are applied. Leia sat still. At their mercy.
When leaving Faro. Richard still had a strong sense of loss. It's like missing a piece of my heart.
Finally killed Raymond. This result was unexpected by Raymond. But it was in Richard's sense. In the bottom of Richard's heart. Benefit. It is not the decisive factor. At least not in this matter.
Killed Raymond. It is equivalent to cutting a line with the scholar mage of Solomon Castle. The original Richard hoped to be able to be in the long years. Through Guò Raymond's line, he gradually found out the details of the mysterious Solomonburg scholar mage.
Although in Carlando, get the magic feather. Fort Solomon seemed to be showing kindness to him. And the war between him and Raymond seems to be just a personal grudge between the two families. But Richard had a wary of this mysterious and powerful organization. However, so many years have passed. Raymond not only does it himself. Instead, he used his soul to make up for the plan, which almost shook Richard's foundations.
Richard was not entirely fruitless, at least. He finally realized that the scholars and mages were a bunch of lunatics with no affection or affection. They are paranoid towards their goal. Stop at nothing. Play hard. Nor is it coerced in any way. Richard had thought that Raymond would be jealous of the blood relatives of the Joseph family. It will also be considered for Leia. But the moment he stabbed the dagger into Raymond's heart. Richard finally admitted in this way. I was wrong.
So many years have passed. If you don't think about the soul completion plan. In fact, Raymond's actions made Richard very satisfied. Whether it's Anlekara behind the scenes. Manage the planning of the entire Oasis City. and the logistics system now planned for Richard. All of them reflect a very high standard. Even in some respects, even Richard sighed to himself.
Put Raymond in Faro to plan the overall construction. It's like Richard himself is directing here. It should be said that the effect is better. After all, Raymond already had a lot of experience in running the Joseph family's plane before. And from the point of view of a lord. There really is no better candidate than a scholar mage.
So many years. Among so many enemies. Raymond was the only one who had nearly killed Richard twice. He even trapped Gordon's army on the Rocky plane. What means were used. Until now, it is unknown.
If Raymond is not a scholar-mage. That's good
Richard sighed. Put on a solemn and majestic expression. Met the Akmund family guards who were coming. Richard handed over a few letters that had already been written to the old butler. Let him send someone to the appointed person at once. Then he made a special trip to invite Neres.
It didn't take long. Nereus rushed to the floating island.
Richard waved back to the left and right. looked carefully at the four princes who looked obviously haggard. After a while, he said, "You've lost weight." ”
"Life is like a year. How can it not be thin. Nereus said with a wry smile. He hesitated for a moment. Suddenly, there was a look of broken jars. Say, "Richard." I'm ready to get engaged to Max. I, I"
"Mex. Wait a minute. Richard stood up. Pull down the genealogy of the contemporary aristocracy of the continent from the bookshelf next to it. Rummaged through the inside. Look at one of the pages. said: "I said how I think this name is a little familiar. It turned out that she was the granddaughter of Emperor Garan. It is also a famous beauty and young strong man of the millennium dynasty. His father was the Prince of Tumen. Oh. The status of the thousand-year-old dynasty is similar to that of the iron-blooded Grand Duke. Look at it this way. Her background is not lower than yours. Especially at this time. ”
Richard looked up. smiled and said, "This marriage contract." There doesn't seem to be anything bad. ”
Nereus's face changed suddenly. Said angrily: "Richard." You but I don't want this woman. ”
Richard frowned. Ask: "You hate her so much." Is there any particular reason? ”
Nereus stopped talking. Suddenly there was a soft sigh. "I just don't like her." Is this justification okay? ”
Richard pondered for a moment. For political zhì marriage. To like or not to like is too rash to reason. But. Richard nodded and said, "Yes." But. I've heard about it. You're not in a good position right now. ”
Richard didn't go any further. But what he meant was already clear.
This time. The indefinite majesty was not idle. Instead, he is constantly cleaning up the people in the royal family. She especially hated Philip's harem. has found an excuse to kill three once high-status imperial concubines in a row. And their own children and even their families are collectively silent.
Now Nero has gone to the exclusive plane of the royal family to explore resources. Ryan, on the other hand, joined the Eternal Dragon Temple as a priest. Initial display of talent. The level of the gods has increased rapidly. Both former candidates are contributing in their own ways. It is also equivalent to self-protection in disguise. Count it out. Only Nereus seemed to have nothing to do. Still staying in the Imperial Palace.
As a prince. Nereus's marriage is part of the government. If not, it's not normal. Nereus should know that. And Max is also said to be a beauty. Just from the point of view of the conditions. This marriage is really good.
And more importantly. Mex's sprawling background also protects Neris' maternal family. No matter how crazy it is. It is also impossible to make an enemy of the Galan Emperor for no reason just to trouble Nerith. That's what Nereus needs most right now.
But Nereus kept his head down. Never lifted up again.
Richard suddenly thought of a possibility. So he tentatively asked, "Do you have someone you like?" ”
For a long, long time. Nereus nodded.
Richard let out a sigh. Stood up. Walk back and forth in the room. He frowned and said, "That's a bit of a problem." I can't get it. You have to face the pressure of both the uncertain majesty and the millennium dynasty. Who is that person. ”
Nereus shook his head slowly but firmly. The meaning is clear. He would never say it.
Richard was not reluctant. He took a few more steps. Then he came back and sat down in front of Neris. Sincerely looking at this long-time friend. Ask: "What do you need from me?" ”
Neris's breathing suddenly became rapid. Some didn't dare to look at Richard. His gaze flashed to the side. Nono was speechless. After a while, he said, "You promised me to protect me." Is this sentence still valid? ”
Richard smiled. Said indifferently: "Of course." ”
For a moment, Nereus seemed to breathe stagnantly. Said: "Even if it means being the enemy of the indefinite majesty." ”
"I don't want to be her enemy. But that doesn't mean she'll be left to do whatever she wants. Richard's tone became more and more indifferent. And this time. The more bland. In fact, the more he showed his determination.
Nereus seemed to have made up his mind. Suddenly, a smile bloomed that made the world lose color. Stood up. Say, "Thank you." Richard. Don't worry about me. I figured it out. I'm going to get engaged to Mex. ”
After speaking. Nereus turned and left.
