"Can you explain how such a fine person died?"
When asking this question, Lu Ning saw the pain in the Dark Sage's eyes.
"Excellence cannot protect against death, despite the king's best efforts... No, it is precisely because they are so outstanding that death comes."
The Dark Sage took back the photo, put it and the book back on the bookshelf, and thought for a moment before speaking.
"We once thought that the three greatest things we could do for the kingdom were to drive away foreign enemies, conquer death, and abandon the oracle. The king led an invincible army and crossed territories that no one dared to imagine, in order to be able to permanently change peace and harmony. Stabilizing everything in this kingdom. However, on the eve of the expedition, Isabel's death added a layer of gloom to the war. Along the road she discovered leading to the underworld and heaven, the king headed towards the two people who were originally just legends. The march was launched."
Lu Ning didn't expect that he would suddenly reveal such a big thing.
"Wait a minute, you said the king... marched to these two places?"
"Yes, the king defeated death itself and also the carrier of faith. But between these two wars, first Feixiu died in a huge disaster, and then Wu Nuo went insane. The Pope and I We had to take Wu Nuo for physical and mental baptism to prevent him from really self-destruction. While we were away, heaven sent down divine punishment on the eve of defeat. Manden and the new city he was designing and building together with the four people there Tens of thousands of workers turned to dust in the light.”
War takes its toll.
"Later on, Vera stayed behind closed doors. Although we knew the news at that time, we didn't pay too much attention to the problems there because we had to take care of Wu Nuo. Tatyev completed the final integration of himself and his research. , this is also the technology that the king obtained after his return - super memory sealing technology. I am not sure whether Tatyev is still alive in that state, but those who died during that period will never come back."
"I saw a memory in Vera's research institute. The king said...he thought he had prevented Vera's death."
"Yes, when he came back, he had destroyed the mechanism of human death. Human beings will not usher in death, as it should be. But Vera still completed suicide... She gave the king deeper despair and at the same time, she also laughed fiercely. Check out what he did."
"Why did they die in this way? With the talent you mentioned, they should have been prepared in various ways, and they should have strong enough mental resistance."
"...This is another question, and even if you ask me, I don't know. Wu Nuo must sleep in the baptistery in the end. His spirit has become extremely unstable, and the last Leslie ...I'm afraid it has already withered slowly, and even if his body is immortal, his soul is also slowly aging."
"This seems to have serious consequences."
"The kingdom has just stabilized. Even if his companions leave one by one, the king must maintain this result. But just like in the beginning, he needs talents and people who can help him, but he can't find anyone who can replace those in a short time. Companions, those who continue those affairs, and on this basis, the Seven Nobles are finally born.”
The Dark Sage pointed at the only banner in the room.
“The evil between death and life has begun to emerge, and the incarnation of Isabel will rebalance life and death in this world.
With heaven and faith now gone, it was left to Leslie to revive and reign in the communion between God and heart.
Fragments of time are still raging in the world, and Vera and her researchers will still adjust for every second of oversight.
The land of the kingdom will not stop expanding, and Manden will continue to extend the city beyond infinite space.
Everything in the past will serve the future, and all memorized information will be entered into Tatyev's library.
Intense warfare maintains the stability of the military force, and any power eventually becomes a weapon in the hands of Wu Nuo.
The incomprehensible will eventually be understood, and Feixiu will always monitor the birth and death of all supernatural phenomena. "
These are the seven nobles.
No one knew that when the title was awarded, the most suitable person was no longer there.
"I have already given the answer to your question." The Dark Sage crossed his fingers. "If you think this is the answer that meets your expectations, I will give you my blessing and your mission."
"Basically, you have already given the answers to the questions I asked." Lu Ning nodded, "Then what is my mission?"
At this time, the light in the room dimmed. The Dark Sage held up the jewelry around his waist. The black stone emitted bright light in his hands, as if countless thoughts were emanating from the stone, but Lu Ning was unable to catch any of them.
"Treasure... everyone can only have one. It is a method that the king combined with countless technologies. Even I can't understand the secret. I just got a gift."
The Dark Sage murmured in a low voice, and now his tone was more like his appearance.
"Based on what just happened, determine the mission and future of the person in front of you... [Remorse Nursery Rhyme]."
Lu Ning suddenly felt her head shake, as if she had been hit hard on the head. Finally, a ray of thought entered Lu Ning's mind. This strand of thought turned into a piece of information in her mind, and that was exactly what she got. mission.
[Go to the inner city of the royal capital, meet the greatest bishop, and liberate his soul. 】
Upon receiving this piece of information, the Dark Sage's eyes flashed.
"You can choose a blessing...a blessing that only belongs to you. Choose one of the four. Once you decide, you won't change it."
Following these words, Lu Ning felt a blur in front of her eyes. Countless things seemed to be displayed in front of her eyes, and only the four most clear ones could be identified.
【Your will will be with your life. 】
【Your status will be noble and full of glory. 】
[The death of others will turn into your new life. 】
【Your soul will not be infected by evil spirits. 】
Lu Ning shook his head, his calm mood suppressing all complicated thoughts again.
“Where will I go when I make my choice?”
"Where you come from, where you go." The Dark Sage replied.
"That's good, I choose..." 187

At the elevator entrance of a high-rise apartment, Yan Rong finally grabbed Shao's neck and pinned him to the ground. However, after being suppressed for nearly thirty seconds, Shao did not faint yet, but continued to resist. Yan Rongteng didn't want to knock him out, so he gritted his teeth and shook his head and hit Shao's forehead directly. A loud noise finally knocked him out.
"It hurts...Is this guy's head made of iron?" Yan Rong rubbed his head and stood up. He glanced into the corridor first and suddenly found that no one was there. He was surprised and tied up Shao with a rope first. He stood up and carried him to the door of the room.
"Lu Ning? Zhu Qinyuan?"
"I'm here."
Lu Ning released her invisibility and revealed herself. Yan Rong breathed a sigh of relief: "Fortunately, I saw no one here and thought you had gone somewhere."
"We did go somewhere, but those people haven't come back yet." Lu Ning shrugged helplessly, "But it looks like you still won. As expected of you."
"That's right, after all, this kid still has his own skills." Yan Rong laughed, "As long as I don't fight the kind of guy who gets stuck, I'm confident."
"Seriously, is he tricky?"
"There are two brushes." Yan Rong also calmed down, "I'm sure he also has treasures and is in a high fusion state, otherwise he wouldn't have been able to fight with me for so long."
"It's normal. After all, according to the intelligence, Ruhr's treasure was given by this group of people. Since they are willing to give away the treasure, they must have plenty in their hands. It is estimated that everyone is a person who has integrated the treasure."
"The treasures that the nobles released are really quite a lot, and they can actually give them away casually."
"Not necessarily." Lu Ning shook her head, "This group of people is quite special. Yoshimitsu Katayu's team itself should be following orders... They don't understand why the Dark Sage is tracking them down."
"Do you know?"
"I didn't ask this question, but I can make some inferences from some circumstantial evidence. If you just have the treasure or use the treasure to trace it, then the Dark Sage is too busy. These people must be focused on for more special reasons. . As for this reason...it's probably because relatively few people do it, exploring the stories behind the treasures."
"It's like he discovered some secret and wanted to kill him to silence him?" Yan Rong asked.
"Absolutely. After all, it's better not to let too many people know about the things behind the treasure. If these people have integrated the memories in the treasure, they should have some understanding of the past. And the person behind the scenes is very interested in this. people."
"The person behind the scenes?"
"They are quite aimless, aren't they? At least these three people are just here to find out why the Dark Sage is investigating them. And I think if they really have a purpose to discover the secrets behind the treasure, that person will completely understand the Dark Sage. Why would anyone pursue it?"
"After talking for a long time, who do you think is behind the scenes? Is it a noble? It must not be?"
"No... in the outer city, there are some people who are rumored to have visited many ruins. They possess treasures and use them to turn themselves into legends."
Lu Ning didn't pay special attention to it before, but after meeting the Dark Sage, she realized that there may be many people who have treasures, but not many people can use them properly. Referring to Ruel's fate, failure to control the treasure can only lead to greater disasters.
"You mean what Ana said before..."
"It is rumored that the Lone Ranger 'Chen Dusk' will go to various ruins to collect treasures, but now we know that one person can only be equipped with one treasure, so what is the use of his massive collection?" Lu Ning narrowed his eyes. "What happens if he gets tired of being a lone ranger? In the same way, does the elusive assassin not act alone?"
"Are they behind this kid?" Yan Rong glanced at Shao on the ground.
"It's just a guess. Because these people may be the type of people who best meet the requirements. They have strength, can be curious about the mysteries of the world, and have enough capital to take action."
Lu Ning took out a communicator, which was a communication tool that everyone bought when they left. She pressed the button and waited for a moment, and the voice connection was connected.
"Hello?" Jean's voice was very low, and there was some noise around him.
"Jean, I have found another way to the Dark Sage. You can try your best. I have asked about the events that happened to the seven nobles and the king in the past. You can avoid those. By the way, you can decide for yourself whether to let Alex knows - I saw that Bingham has become the gatekeeper of the Dark Sage, and that state is probably due to some kind of deal, which is not optimistic."
"Is it just him?" Jean asked.
"Yes, only him. I think there must be more extreme transactions possible with the Dark Sage, but I won't try it. Now I will tell you the method, and you can try to find it..."
Lu Ning walked to the corner and whispered to Rang about the dark secret order. Yan Rong knelt down and checked Shao's condition. After confirming that he was still unconscious, he stood up and prepared to carry him to a safe place. At this moment, a muffled sound suddenly came from the corridor.
Lu Ning and Yan Rong turned their heads at the same time. At the same time, a man rushed out from the corridor and reached out to grab Shao on the ground. Yan Rong instinctively stopped him with a horizontal shot. Lu Ning took a closer look and found that the second person who came back was actually Gis.
"It's not that easy to save people."
Yan Rong casually picked up Shao, who was on the ground, and moved him two meters back, and took a step across to stop him in front of Jisi. Jis suddenly failed to succeed, his face suddenly darkened, he turned to look at Lu Ning: "Your strength is beyond my expectation."
Lu Ning had never shown his body in front of Jisi before, so he probably mistakenly thought it was Shao whom the two caught two-on-one. Lu Ning was not prepared to explain anything to Ji Guis, but just smiled and said: "Yi Guang Pian Yu? Am I right?"
"You are indeed companions. It seems that she told you a lot of things." Geese threw out a folding wave knife, "But being able to defeat Shao doesn't mean you can defeat me."
"You are very confident." Yan Rong laughed, "It seems that you are the leader among the three of us? That's fine, as long as I beat you, I can always figure out who your boss is."
"snort……"
"But we don't have that much time to spend here with you."
As Lu Ning spoke, she suddenly approached Shao who was on the ground. Seeing this, Jisi immediately wanted to come over, but was easily intercepted by Yan Rong. A large number of film strips appeared behind Lu Ning's back. She took out one of the strips with her backhand and pressed it directly on Shao's forehead.
"What do you want to do!" Gis roared.
"I think it's too troublesome to go around trying to argue. It's faster to use threats." Lu Ning answered the question, then tore off the film and held it between his fingers. "My treasure can Take a personality photo, now your companion's spirit is in my hands, even if he can act normally, I can destroy his mind at any time."
After saying that, she blended the film into her robe and grinned.
"Now, you must meet my request, otherwise something will happen to your companions."
