The mage arrives

In terms of strength, Clivesi and Travok are actually not too far behind.Even if the gray dwarf is weaker, he won't be defeated by the opponent with a single punch.But at this time, the gray dwarf was drunk and didn't have the warhammer in his hand, so he was punched by the monk and hit the tree trunk, causing the fallen leaves to flutter and rustle.

Travok, who was knocked dizzy by the monk's punch, stumbled up and wanted to take revenge, but after Gordon appeared and shouted him off, he could only step aside angrily.Only then did he know that the original visitor knew Gordon.

The gray dwarf, who realized that something was wrong, originally wanted to apologize to Gordon, but who knew that he was so drunk that he couldn't even utter a word.Seeing Travok sweating in anxiety, Gordon waved his hand, threw him another bag of ale, and welcomed the monk and Pensa inside.

Anyway, dwarves, that's the virtue.Finding a male dwarf who doesn't drink is as nearly impossible as finding a human who doesn't breathe.

—No—wrong— .{}{}{}{s}. Why did Pensa not follow Asa Augustus, but came to Qingmai Town to look for him? Gordon was very curious about this.And why he was with the monk was also very strange.And why did this monk come to him?For all these questions, after the three sat down in the room, Pensa began to explain to Gordon one by one.

Of course, in front of Crevisi, a series of things related to His Majesty the Emperor of Elements, Wanhua Illusion, etc., cannot be brought out.This quasi-god, apparently an Elder of the Elkan, first told Gordon about his encounter with the monk.

The seven sinners that the monks were looking for were killed.Definitely.Because he injected a trace of energy into that monster's body, he could sense the other's existence.However, since the killing of the Seven Sinners did not happen in reality, after Clivesi woke up.Something always feels wrong.

Although Clivesi, like other adventurers, cannot clearly recall what happened in the illusion.However, because of the monk's professional characteristics, the use of "Qi" and strong mental power, Crivise remembered more and more detailed things than ordinary adventurers.

Like the three girls, it was just a vague feeling that they had a dream.Then in the dream, I did a lot of sweet, shy and very comfortable things with Gordon, and spent a good time.But in Clivesey's mind, there are many clear clips of the battle with the Seven Sins.Gordon's pre-war preparations.The tactical organization and the various processes involved are still fresh in the memory of monks.The face and voice of the mage who led himself to destroy the Seven Sins.The monks also remembered it clearly.

When the illusion is over.When the monk woke up and found himself in the dark and gloomy Vesula Mountain again, his fists and feet seemed to still have the exhilarating feeling of blasting the enemy's body.

If a person like Gordon who pays attention to logic and rationality, in the situation of Crevisy at that time, he would definitely be very puzzled by the strange memory in his mind, and then determined to investigate the truth.But the monk didn't think so at the time, instead he only had one idea: to find the mage who helped him, and then repay him.

Because of the influence of special exercise methods.So the group of monks are basically very emotional people.What he pays attention to on weekdays is all metaphysical things in the eyes of ordinary people.So Clivesi easily accepted the incredible phenomenon of illusion.

Therefore, he prepared to repay Gordon, the hero who had made great efforts in killing the Seven Sinners.

According to the warrior monk, Gordon's appearance was the result of arrangements from the appearance of the gods he believed in.

Although the Seven Sinners were indeed killed by their own efforts.However, Gordon did not intend to publicize this matter everywhere.After all, the illusion involves too many secrets, and many things cannot be explained to outsiders.

So Kerry wants to repay Gordon. He feels both natural and weird.

"...that's my idea." After finishing his story, the monk took off an old bag and handed it to Gordon, "I hope you can accept this gift."

Gordon didn't think that a poor monk like Clivesi, who walked around the world in civilian clothes and a pair of worn-out shoes, could produce any precious treasures.He himself is quite strong, and if he swears allegiance to Gordon, it would be pretty good, and he can have an extra powerful thug.But this is delusional, and monks obviously don't owe their allegiance to a secular noble lord.

At this moment, Pensa, who was sitting on the sidelines, silent and motionless, as if in a trance, sent a code word to Gordon: "Take it quickly."

When Clivesy came to look for Gordon, it was Pensa who led the way and brought him to Qingmai Town.The quasi-god not only brought the monk, but also urged Gordon to accept the other party's gift, for some unknown purpose.

But Gordon took the package anyway.

He opened it and found it was a book.

If the big bald man sitting across from Gordon was a Shaolin monk with great martial arts skills, maybe Gordon would think this book is a secret book of martial arts.However, in the world of Tailos, there is no unified method for the monks to cultivate the "Qi" in their bodies.Everyone's practice path is different, and it all depends on one's own perception or the power bestowed by the gods.

This book has a green cover, and the paper is not the papyrus or parchment commonly used in the countries of the Northern Continent, but light yellow coconut paper.In the main material world, only the countries on the southern continent across the sea of ​​stars use this kind of paper.

In the scorching hot and water-scarce desert area, the long coconut tree is the most important economic plant.The dates produced on this tree are delicious and nutritious food, and the bark that falls off every year is also a high-quality fiber product. It is not only used by ordinary people to make clothes, but also an important raw material for papermaking.

Reminiscent of Crevisy's history of tracking down the Seven Sins in the great desert of the Southern Continent, it is not difficult for Gordon to guess the origin of this book.

"This book comes from the famous Ben Latu family." Clivesi explained.

Today, in the southern continent, there are two powerful countries, namely the Benlatu Empire and the Muland Empire.In addition, there are many small countries, city-states, and independent tribes.This is a political pattern in which two powers are opposed and many countries coexist.It is quite similar to the North Continent.

However, people from the southern mainland have their own unique culture.Their countries are always named after the family that ruled the country.In Ferelton, although the Anduin family has produced the most emperors since the founding of the country, there are also some people from other families who have been emperors in history.As for Northengard, the mortal enemy next door, the major electors came to power in turn.However, no matter how the ruler changes, the name of the country remains unchanged.

However, in the Southern Continent, it was another scene.

The Benlato Empire is okay to say.Because the powerful Ben Ratu family has ruled that land for thousands of years.It has started since the third era, so the name of the country has not changed for a long time.The Murand Empire next door was also called the Hashemite Empire 15 years ago. 37 years ago, it was also called the Farah Empire, and 120 years ago, it was called the Fatima Empire...

Such a complicated change of country name is probably not a senior scholar who is familiar with the history of the Southern Continent.It's easy to get confused.

Compared with the chaos of frequent changes of the ruling class next door.The reason why the Benlatu family was able to rule the entire country for a thousand years is because of its unique system and means.

Many of them involve things in the fields of law, culture, economy, etc., which are too complicated to mention for the time being.The Benratu family has been able to maintain its rule for thousands of years, and there is an advantage that anyone with a discerning eye can see at a glance: the helm of the empire promoted by this family in each generation is almost a strongman with abilities beyond imagination.

The emperor of Benlatu Empire is not only a wise king, but also a strong man with extraordinary strength.Among the monarchs of all dynasties.The weakest ones are all great warlocks who have mastered the nine-ring spell, and there are endless ones who have reached the legendary level.

so.The Benratu family has another name, the "Great Warlock Family".

Why is this family so powerful?In fact, the reason is very simple, good prenatal and postnatal care.

Warlocks rely on blood power to cast spells.They don't need to work hard to study, study, and practice spells, and they can easily become powerful spellcasters.As for mages, not only rely on innate wisdom, but also acquired hard work, good education, and certain opportunities, so that they can continue to advance step by step on the road of arcane arts.

For these two spellcasting professions, in terms of the upper limit of strength, there is no doubt that mages are stronger.But if it comes to the lower limit, there is no doubt that Warlock is better.There are so many useless mages who have no talent, have remained in the apprenticeship stage for decades, and can only use a few tricks.But if a warlock has lived for decades, he must have at least reached the spellcasting level of five rings or above.

Everyone can learn spells, but there are very few excellent mages.And Warlock is different.To cultivate an excellent warlock offspring, the Benratu family only needs to search for powerful and rare bloodline holders, and then breed them.

It is said that the ancestor of the Benratu family was a warlock with the blood of the ancient blue dragon.He took another female sorceress with the blood of the ancient red dragon, and since then embarked on the road of eugenic breeding.

It stands to reason that as the offspring reproduce, the blood of the family will become thinner and thinner, and the children's warlock talent will gradually decline.In order to prevent this kind of thing from happening, the Benratu family started a very special marriage culture called "Holy Marriage of Blood Relatives".

You can tell by the name that although it looks powerful on the surface, it is actually legal incest.

In order to maintain the strength of the warlock's bloodline, various marriages between brothers and sisters, siblings, nephews, nephews, fathers and daughters in the Benlatu family emerged endlessly.Gordon felt that instead of being called the "Great Warlock Family", it would be more appropriate to call it the "Lost Family".

After all, from the perspective of a time traveler like him, this kind of family with lost morality and etiquette is really... so fucking touching.

Judging from his mentality of being a bystander watching and gossiping, this tradition of the Ben Latu family is indeed a very touching topic of conversation.This kind of secret affair of the lower body is something that the people love to hear.Although in the Northern Continent, many nobles will adopt similar methods in order to maintain the purity of their blood and give birth to excellent offspring.But everyone still has to take care of face at least on the surface.If a younger brother wants to marry his own older sister, at least the family has to fake an accident, let the older sister "death" first, and then change her name and surname to marry her.

Of course, compared with the blatantness of the Ben Latu family, this kind of superficial skill is only the difference between fifty steps and one hundred steps.

Just like what Ania said to Gordon in the illusion, whether it is human or animal, it was originally for the healthy reproduction of the race.Inbreeding is prohibited to avoid genetic defects.In the world of Telos, Gordon had never heard of the fact that inbreeding would lead to genetic diseases in offspring.

Are the genes in the organisms of the two worlds different?Or, creatures of the world of Telos.There is no such thing as dna.

All in all, the Benlato family is a powerful and wonderful family.Therefore, the books written by members of this family are certainly not common reading materials.

Because most of the southern continent is desert, the natural environment is harsh, and there is a lack of water and plants, so the people who live here have a tradition of advocating greenness.Only the royal family.Or high-ranking nobles who have received special favors are eligible to wear green clothes and green hats.

Well.Gordon was insensitive to such matters.Because to him, the green hat has another meaning.

So when Crevisi said that the book with the green cover came from the hands of the Benlato family, Gordon probably believed it.It wasn't that Gordon was worried that the monk would lie to him.Rather, he felt based on the knowledge reserve of this monk.I'm afraid I can't tell the authenticity of a magic book.

Gordon accepted the untitled copy.A book from the hands of the Ben Latour family.Clivesi briefly described the origin of the book.It is said that he got it from a lord of the Benratu family after he helped the lord of the Benratu family deal with the heretics polluting the water source in an oasis city.For a monk like him, this book is useless, and it is even difficult to understand its contents, but since it is a gift from a great warlock family, it must be very precious, and it is used as a thank you gift.It is just right to give to such a knowledgeable mage as Gordon.

After Gordon accepted the gift.Clivesi clasped his fists and saluted, and after saying goodbye briefly, he left alone.According to himself, he wants to go back to the Green Gorge Province, take a look at the graves of his fellow monks, and then rebuild Fengxi Monastery.

After seeing off Clivesy, Gordon dropped the book on the table, ready to have a serious talk with Pensa.

"Young man, this book is very important. It is related to whether you can help Vinya get rid of the power of the God of Hatred. You'd better put it away properly." Pensa reminded with a smile.

Gordon shrugged, put the book into the dimensional bag as he said, and then asked: "Then Mr. Pensa, you, the most loyal servant of His Majesty the Emperor of Elements, the most contented god in history, did not hesitate to take a detour to come to Qingmai Town, what are you doing? You know I have a lot of problems, and you must know what kind of problems I have, so..."

Gordon gestured please.

"Sigh, you young man has such a vicious mouth, you actually mocked an old man like me..." Pensa sighed, frowning.

Gordon disagreed.The other party is a quasi-god, and changing his image is not a matter of minutes.Pensa likes to show others the appearance of this old man, and it can only be said that it is just his own bad taste.

"Okay." Seeing that Gordon had no interest in chatting with him, Pensa said, "I came here to find you, of course, for the dissipated divine power of the God of Hatred, and for the matter of Vinia. In addition, I have to remind you Pay attention to that man named Alan Telfer."

Although Asa Augustus had just rebuilt his body, his strength was severely lacking, and he was in a hurry to leave, so he couldn't handle many things well.However, he still has a strong control over his hometown of Floating Void City.Gordon's series of encounters after leaving the illusion has been known to Neisser's number one arcanist.

"What I was going to tell you, can be done with a direct communication spell. But for the sake of Vinia, I decided to come to see you in person," Pensa said.

For Pensa, who had suffered a great betrayal, the girl Vinia was quite angry with him.So the female druid was eroded by the power of the god of hatred, and he didn't want to stand by and was ready to help.

However, Pensa's method of helping seemed a little different.

Suddenly, the gray dwarf stumbled in with a beer bag in his hand. While moving his short legs, he kept muttering, "Damn it, why are there so many people outside all of a sudden, singing and dancing?"

The gray dwarf ran into a guest room and fell asleep.While Gordon was in the living room, he also heard the noise of singing and dancing from outside.

"How is this going?"

Pensa chuckled: "It's nothing. It's just that the Lord Lord's simple and honest people spontaneously came to celebrate the news of your engagement with their respected matriarch."…

"got engaged?"

"Yes. I spread the news this morning. What I, the Elder of the Aikan people said, still has some weight, and everyone believed it without much doubt."

Gordon held his forehead, with a helpless expression on his face: "You must have a reason for being so reckless."

"I was trying my best to match up your marriage with Vinia before. Because the combination of the two of you can perfectly resolve the conflict between you, a foreign lord, and the local forces. After getting married, you and Vinia will naturally do some things. Things that a husband and wife will do—just like in a fantasy. In this way, you can absorb the divine power from the body of the God of Hatred and save Vinya's life."

"Wait... you mean, just like in the environment, I want to solve the problem of Mephisto's divine power through the union between men and women?" Gordon asked.

Although it sounds like there are precedents, this is a very reliable plan.But from one moment to another, Gordon's current situation is completely different from that in the illusion.It was the special energy in the Destiny Jewelry that he collected through papapapapapapapapa.But now, Pensa has to use the same method to absorb the evil divine power from Vinya's body.How can this be?
