after waking up.

Chapter 162 You have no choice
It was dark and damp, everything was made of black stones, there seemed to be all kinds of strange roars in the ground, the bust sculptures on the surrounding walls seemed to be looking everywhere at any time, there was no wind, but the candles were flickering, it was obviously extremely cold, but there was no any ice.

This is the dungeon of Castle Black, where Gormos, nicknamed Shadow Fiend, was imprisoned. At this time, he had been entangled by a kind of black thorn, and was suspended in the mid-air of a cell, with black spikes piercing his body. There was no blood spilled anywhere on the watch.

And Mulan was leaning against the wall of the same cell.

"When I came down from the battlefield, I suffered from a serious mental illness. I always woke up in insomnia and nightmares. I went to a church by chance and met a priest. He taught me how to get peace of mind. It was the beginning of my friendship with Alvin."

Mu Lan calmly told the shadow demon about his past with Aiwen, until Aiwen was attacked and died.

"I thought that Aiwen could only survive in my memory in the future, but you seem to have something else to say?"

Mu Lan looked at Shadow Demon, who had chapped lips, sunken eye sockets and protruding eyeballs.

"Ho, ho, ho water, Lord Jones, please give me water"

"The black thorns will slowly suck your plasma, absorb your physical strength and even magic power. Water alone is not enough to relieve your thirst. Drink this."

Mu Lan raised a gooseneck jug in his hand, walked over to bring it to Shadow Demon's mouth, tipped the jug lightly, and a light green liquid was poured out of it.

Shadow Demon hurriedly struggled to pick it up with his mouth.

"Gollum, Gollum, Gollum."

It was cool and sweet, like the taste of the source of life, but after only a few sips, Mulan removed the gooseneck pot.

"Give me some more, give me some more."

The Shadow Fiend looked at the jug longingly.

"You said that someone can steal your magic power, but everyone knows that magic power cannot be stolen. Even if people with special professions seem to be able to do this, it is actually just an illusion. Even if you deprive your magic power Power, the moment it leaves you, ceases to be your magic."

Shadow Demon looked up at Mulan, racking his brains.

"Indeed, what you said is correct, but I can't explain what I saw. You have also come into contact with that familiar, so it's really not me playing tricks on you. I have no reason or the guts to do it!"

"You really don't have such a reason, but that is when you are mentally normal. You have already devoured a person. No one knows if you have done anything else in private. If you are backlashed by some evil rituals , then mental incompleteness is not impossible!"

Mulan stared at Shadow Demon, his cold eyes seemed to pierce his heart, and the latter's originally calm mood suddenly became agitated.

"No, no, I just ate people in the dangerous situation yesterday. I have never done this before. The potions I took are all specially for the royal family. Even if they contain some special ingredients with stimulating potential, they are also inherited by the royal family. Secret recipe!"

"Really? I don't have mind reading skills. I don't know if what you said is true or not. Do you want to go to the holy mountain and ask the holy relics of the holy church to have a look?"

The Shadow Demon was breathing heavily. He wanted to struggle but was stung by the thorns. He couldn't use his strength. He knew that Mu Lan was unlikely to believe him. To be honest, he might not even believe these words if he moved to another place.

But when Shadow Demon was in despair, Mu Lan gave him hope.

Mulan grabbed the shadow demon's jaw and lowered the head of the man in the air, so that the two looked directly at each other.

"But I believe you're telling the truth!"

what?
Shadow Fiend looked at Mulan in disbelief, even he himself doubted himself, and Mulan Jones actually said he believed him.

lie?Teasing and mocking me?
But facing Mulan's eyes, Shadow Demon had a faint feeling that what Mulan said was what he thought in his heart, and the emotional echo was extremely strong.

A sense of sincerity can be created and interpreted, especially when the opponent’s will is weak, the power of the devil can easily sense the opponent’s various emotions and negativity, and can better grasp the sense of reversal of the rope that appears in despair.

The corners of Mulan's mouth raised slightly, and he let out a slight laugh.

"Heh, are you thinking, since I believe in you, why should I torture you?"

The Shadow Demon nodded subconsciously, and Mulan let go of the Shadow Demon's jaw, picked up the gooseneck pot and shook it.

"Even if you are telling the truth, based on your betrayal of the queen, these tortures are justified, not to mention."

Mu Lan turned to Shadow Fiend again.

"Even acting requires fidelity."

acting?

"I want to make a deal with you. First, I will submit the report to you within a credible range. Second, I will protect your family. Then, I will even find a way to get you free. Don't ask me how to do it, I can't guarantee that it will be achieved, but I will try my best!"

Shadow Demon swallowed.

"Then what will I pay for it?"

"Don't be nervous, I don't need you to sell your soul, I just want you to help me investigate something together!"

"what's up?"

"Actually, it has something to do with what you said. Do you know where the contradictory and compatible power of darkness and light comes from?"

Before the Shadow Demon could speak, Mu Lan continued talking to himself.

"Heretics from a church, even though the church is covering up some things, there are still obvious traces, not to mention that I may have happened to meet the victim that day, so the attack on the Bondi priest must not be that simple. "

"I want to know who that heretic is, why is he looking for Aiwen, and if he is looking for Aiwen, is it possible that Aiwen is still alive?"

"How can I find out about this kind of thing? Will the church tell me?"

Mulan smiled.

"Maybe not in the church."

"Then what are you talking about?"

Shadow Demon's voice suddenly dropped, he thought of a terrible possibility, and couldn't help but stare at Mulan with wide eyes.

"Hehehe, it seems that you have realized it. That's right, why did you get framed? Because you are a member of the Queen's special guard? Is it because of a coincidence? I'm afraid it's not that simple!"

Mu Lan looked at Shadow Demon coldly, as if he had seen through his cowardice and fear.

"He will come to you! The person you said stole your magic power, whether he is the heretic or not, he will definitely find you again!"

The shadow demon's pupils dilated slightly, as if there were endless negativity entangled him at this moment, raising the fear in his heart, and shattering his will, it was a phantom wandering in the shadows, it was eyes in the darkness!
Be afraid, be afraid, tremble with magic!

Mulan growled in his heart. Under his influence, the frequency of the Shadow Demon's magic power became clearer in his eyes. The magic power that returned yesterday became more active in the Shadow Demon's body.

"If, if so, how are you going to save me?"

Shadow Demon's face was pale, and his voice trembled. The fear of the darkness in his heart had far surpassed the fear of the Holy Tribunal. The darkness in his heart was the ultimate terror, as if it would swallow the soul at any time .

"I said, I will try my best. At least you still have a hope like me. Even if I want to know the truth, I will try my best to see you again, right? Can you still count on the Holy Church?"

Shadow Demon stared at Mu Lan, he gritted his teeth and spoke with an accent.

"Indeed, I have no choice, Lord Jones, I hope you can keep your promise!"

"I am a shining knight!"

Mu Lan replied solemnly, and raised the gooseneck jug again, and poured out the liquid. The Shadow Demon didn't care about anything at the moment, just drinking frantically.

After a while, Mu Lan walked out of the dungeon, looking back in that dark direction, his eyes were very calm.

Gormos' fear of the darkness has been stretched to a considerable height, coupled with the hidden magic power, from the will to the spirit to the magic power and then reacted on the body, it is enough to produce an almost dominant interference resonance.

Nothing is so perfect and lucky.

Cowardice is mixed with greed, arrogance is mixed with low self-esteem, there is no pity in the heart but longing for the pity of others, the desire is high in the heart but there is no one who dares to spy secretly, maybe only the loyalty to the queen is the excellence that Mulan can see directly for Gormos quality, but even that quality comes at a discount.

'Gormos, the power of shadow is too weak for you to use, you don't deserve to be called shadow fiend at all! '
