Law of the Devil

Chapter 287: Bets

Du Wei looked at this Lord Beast with full expectation, his heart was beating fast at this moment.

"I don't know very well." These words of qq undoubtedly made Du Wei's adrenaline secretion suddenly intensified! Those who know are "not very clear", so it means that they know at least a little bit? It's okay to know a little bit!

Probably Du Wei's eyes were too hot, which made QQ shrink his head in a weird way, "Okay... I think you probably know that in the legend, the gods have the spell of prophecy. Of course, there are also legends, and the prophecy is not the gods. Specialized skills. As long as your strength and spells reach a certain level, such as reaching the level close to the gods, you can also predict future people and things.

In particular, when the Goddess performed miracles, there was a record of 'prophecy' on the stone full of divine spells... But it is a pity that I think these divine spells are taught to humans by the gods. But they are all low-level things, really powerful and advanced. The goddess will not teach it to humans! Therefore, the prophecy was not written on that slate.

At that time, I was the head of the church. Of course, I have seen all these magical arts. I also put these spells. Secretly copied a copy and gave it to Master Aragorn.

Well, I think, maybe it's because Master Aragorn is powerful. Already close to the realm of the gods. Therefore, he probably has mastered the ability of prophecy. As a result, when we went north that time, on the sacred mountain of the Dragon Clan, he sealed me. before sealing. He said to me, 'In the future, someone will open this place to wake you up, and that person will inherit everything from me. He will also take good care of you. You also help him a lot'.

After that, the master used magic to put me into a deep sleep. And he. I know. He should have crossed the sacred mountain and continued to walk north.

However, at that time I was already asleep. So after that, I don't know anything about it. "

Du Wei's expression was not good.

Divination?

Damn divination! Du Wei didn't believe it was that simple!

There is actually "Hello Du Wei" written in Chinese characters on the sole of the foot of the little Lufik in Nanyang. Can this kind of weird thing be explained by a simple "prophecy"?

It seemed that every time I took a step, the lingering shadow of Aragorn always enveloped me. As if every step I took. They are all faintly involved in the calculations of Aragorn thousands of years ago!

This is definitely not something that can be explained simply by "prophecy"! Even if Aragon has the ability to predict things after a thousand years. But it doesn't make sense to know so many details clearly!

"So... what about Nanyang?" Du Wei sighed: "About Nanyang. How much do you know? Aragorn actually left a message for me on the bottom of that Nanyang boy..."

"I don't know." QQ shook his head: "I don't know anything about Nanyang. Maybe. The master went to Nanyang after I fell asleep. Hmm. It must be like this. After I fell asleep, he went to Dragon Race Mountain first. To the north. And then to Nanyang? Well, it must be like this.”

look. This QQ seems to have said everything it knows.

But Du Wei looked at this guy carefully, and still couldn't help but feel a little puzzled. This bird is not so honest! Judging from its consistent performance, it always hides many secrets.

"qq." Du Wei sighed, and tried to make his tone as sincere as possible. Since he couldn't be too hard, he could only be soft: "I said... since Aragorn left you to me, and let you give me a lot of money." Help me. Then, I think, you should be open and honest. You see, these things,. You didn't tell me before, but kept it from me! Now, I think... you should tell me everything you know Tell me, this way, maybe it will help me more. You can stop hiding anything, okay?"

After hearing Du Wei's words, QQ suddenly called out to Qu: "Oh, Master Du Wei, I really have nothing to hide from you...I can swear, I swear to the Goddess of Light!"

Du Wei scolded angrily: "Go to hell! Don't you believe in the goddess of light at all? You swear to the goddess, only ghosts will believe you."

He was even more certain in his heart that this hateful bird must have something to hide from him.

Du Wei was very angry, but there was nothing he could do with the bird. Finally, seeing Du Wei's sullen expression, QQ relaxed a little and said:

"Dear Master Du Wei, there are many things that are useless to say now. More things can only be beneficial to you if you say them after you have strong strength. If you say them too early, it may not be a good thing. ah."

Du Wei rolled his eyes: "Humph, that sounds good! Why are you willing to tell me these things today?"

"Because I think today is a very good time." QQ suddenly stopped joking, and its tone was very serious.

"opportunity?"

"Yes." QQ said very seriously: "Dear Master Du Wei. I think the acquaintance of you, Bishop Maximus, is a very good opportunity: a chance to reach out to the church! Remember me and Are you talking about Master Aragorn's plan to 'usurp the gods'? Since you are the heir of the master, we might as well continue with this plan of usurping the gods."

"Go to hell." Du Wei sneered indifferently: "I'm full to support the ground? Well, why should I take the initiative to go to the temple to trouble? I am my Duke in the northwest, I don't know how happy I am !"

QQ is not angry, just smiled lightly: "This is not right. My master. The relationship between you and the temple will always break down one day. Look... don't say anything else. Just say you don't know now How many things are taboo in the temple, such as... Hussein? For example, Her Majesty Queen Medusa? Take a look. These things can be hidden for a while. It may not be possible to hide them for a lifetime. If there is a day when the temple finds out..."

"Then let's talk about it when that day comes!" Du Wei still shook his head: "I just want to live my life freely. Overthrowing the temple? I have no interest in such a great cause. And... don't talk to me again. What the hell is Aragorn's mission inherited! I have no interest in this! Aragorn's mission, I am not interested in inheriting it! A guy who has been dead for a thousand years. What does it have to do with me!"

"It seems that you want to hide...but can you hide?" QQ laughed: "Master Du Wei, think about it, Bishop Maximus boarded your boat, and you helped him drive away the pursuers People. It is tantamount to offending the Yeni faction in the temple! And... the daughter of the eldest prince. Your highness the saint in the temple has always been against you. If you don’t mess with them, won’t they come? you?.

You will have dinner with Bishop Maximus tonight. By the time……"

Du Wei was silent for a while: "I really can't avoid the temple. But let me tell you, I may deal with the temple, maybe do something... But, I will not participate in your plan to usurp the gods! Then I It seems that the temple is just like the magic union, which can be used and traded. But I definitely don't want to set up such a big enemy! So, I might trade something with Bishop Maximus. But - to subvert the temple? Hmph, such a great cause. I'm not interested!"

After finishing speaking, Du Wei left QQ alone, turned and walked out of the room.

Looking at Du Wei's back. qq sighed, then smiled and said to himself: "Look, I'm right. There are many things, even if I tell you now, it's useless. You have to wait for the day when you can't avoid it before you can accept it." .Now let me tell you, you are not willing to take responsibility. Hmm...do you think it is easy to deal with the temple? My master...the temple is a quagmire. It's hard!" Du Wei's boat drove all the way downstream, and in the evening, it passed the last bend in the river, and after passing this bend, it was only a few days away from the imperial capital. Afterwards, the river gradually became wider and flatter, and there were more and more boats on the river.

Under such circumstances, no matter how much the temple wanted to send someone to assassinate them, there was no chance in broad daylight and with so many boats on the river.

In the evening, Du Wei invited the bishop to have dinner together. However, Du Wei was slightly surprised that during the dinner, only Maximus attended the dinner, and neither Archdeacon Ramsay nor Rhine came.

"Ramus is a little seasick, resting in the room. Rhine...he doesn't understand etiquette, I don't think you need to let him participate in the Duke's dinner." Maximus changed into a clean robe, although still It is an old robe, but it is very clean and starched. He should have taken a shower in the room in the afternoon, and his hair stood on end.

From the looks of it, he looked like a neat and simple old priest who paid attention to his appearance.

Du Wei knew that the bishop probably had something to discuss with him, even if there was no one around him.

Immediately, the two sat down, and Du Wei sent someone to serve delicious food and wine, mainly some Northwest-style delicacies. After the two started chatting for a while, Maximus directly cut to the point.

"Master Duke, first of all, I would like to express my gratitude for your help today. Please allow me to toast you." His Excellency the Bishop raised his glass.

After the two had a drink, Maximos put down his glass and continued: "It's just that I'm worried... What happened to you today has ruined Yeni's plan to kill me. Yeni has always acted The style is resolute and cruel, and revenge is inevitable. You offended them for me today, I think..."

Hmph, here comes the drama. Du Wei sneered in his heart, but smiled peacefully on his face: "Oh, I'm not worried. Dear Bishop! Even if I offend these guys. I believe that in the great temple, these Yeni sects , you can’t cover the sky with one hand, right?”

"That's what you say." Maximus sighed: "But now it seems that the Yeni sect has indeed overwhelmed our Mossah sect. After all, their teachings are more in line with the appetite of most people. And we ... Advocating frugal penance and beating with boiling hands. In this world, there are not many people who are willing to economize and penance. Most people think that the Yeni faction’s idea of ​​expanding the influence and power of the church is more in line with their appetite. Of course, now Yeni The Ni faction has not taken power yet, and maybe they dare not openly retaliate against the Duke of the Empire like you, but if they get it..."

"Pope succession?" Du Wei smiled slightly.

"Yes." Maximus sighed: "If you let Yenis become the Pope, then..."

Speaking of this, he deliberately paused, and then said with a sincere look: "Speaking of which, these troubles are all because of me, if I hadn't boarded your boat, then you wouldn't have been involved either. "

Du Wei waved his hand and said lightly: "It's meaningless to say these things now, my lord bishop. Let me say something frankly. I didn't completely save you for what happened today. If anyone is on my boat, I will I will protect it! After all, with my identity, if word spreads and someone comes to my ship and kills my guests, I, Duke Tulip, dare not speak, but shrink back in fear, how can I mess around in the future?"

Although his words were a little rude, the truth was tenable. Maximus nodded, and said softly: "Well, what the Duke said is true, but you saved me after all. This cannot be erased. No matter what, when I return to the Imperial Palace, I will definitely deal with it, As long as I am still in the temple, I will absolutely not allow these guys to take revenge on you."

This can be said to be wonderful. Du Wei sighed secretly in his heart, how can these people who are born as masters always talk about things that are obviously a naked exchange of interests, so high-sounding?

"As long as I'm still in the temple, I won't allow them to retaliate against you" sounds nice, but the meaning is very clear: If you want them not to retaliate against you, you must ensure that I am still in power in the temple! Only my power in the temple can ensure that they dare not retaliate against you.

It's that simple.

Du Wei understood that this was a test of his own words, and if he accepted it, the next step would be for the two parties to negotiate terms.

Thinking of this, Du Wei picked up his wine glass, pondered for a while, and said slowly: "Master Bishop, I don't know why they are in such a hurry to assassinate you on the way back to the imperial capital this time? Could it be... His Majesty the Pope... ..."

Even if I want to make a bet, I always have to see if you are worth my investment. Du Wei smiled, as if humans and animals were harmless. .
