Chapter 1347 The Devil's Entrustment

Xia De still held the cross with his straight arms:
"I know what you are, but I'm not afraid of you. Demon, go to a dark corner and stay there. I bet more and more ring magicians from the three colleges and the Church of the Five Gods will gather here in the last few weeks A city. Even if you have your own plan, what do you dare to do?"

"What arrogance, what arrogance."

That slick tone praised Xia De:

"But you're right, I didn't appear in front of you this time to kill you or do anything to you."

"You want to prevent me from entering this manor? Is there really any secret hidden here?"

"No, young gentleman, I didn't intend to prevent you from entering this manor. On the contrary, since Stone Oxenfurt and Haila Oxenfurt can entrust you, why can't I?"

It asked with a smile, but that smile was really chilling.Moreover, this smile somehow made Xia De think of Mr. Demon Scholar Sean Asmond.

"Commission?"

Xia De snorted, and the heavy snow couldn't hide the mocking expression on his face:
"I thought you were eavesdropping around from the beginning. You should know what I said: one of the common senses of ring warlocks is that you can't make deals with any demons. I don't even want to deal with the undead you have corrupted , not to mention yourself."

Devil Goethe still had a smooth smile:
"No, I don't want to make a deal with you, but I want to entrust you to do things, just like Stone Oxenfurt and Haila Oxenfurt. I don't ask you to sign any contract, and I don't ask you to It must be done. But if you do succeed, I can give you something... interesting."

Xia De frowned slightly:

"You think I'm a very greedy guy?"

The howling wind took his voice away.

"Isn't it? I saw the duel between you and Oxenfurt under that dead tree. You have the power of a great crime, arrogant man."

The demon's voice was very soft, but Shad could hear it clearly.

"The task I gave you does not conflict with the other two tasks you are doing now. In fact, you can complete all of them at the same time and get all you want."

Its eyes looked at the cross that was motionless in the wind and snow, and its voice was quite soft:

"Besides, aren't you afraid of me? You're well prepared."

"Nonsense, if I'm really not afraid of you, why do you think I keep holding this even though my hands are sore?"

Xia De asked back, frowning slightly as if thinking, then narrowed his eyes and asked:

"I want to know first, what exactly are you going to entrust me with?"

"It's simple, very simple for you. Enter the estate, drive out some interlopers, find an item, and forge a weapon."

The demon looked at Shad:

"You should know the history of Watson Manor. The people in this manor offended me at that time, so I taught them some small lessons. And those ordinary people are really surprising. They actually found a It's a great thing to use against me, but unfortunately, it's useless to me, and they don't know how to use that treasure."

Xia De glanced at the manor in the snow from the corner of his eye:
"I'm going to enter the manor, is that what I found?"

"Yes."

"Who was the intruder in the manor?"

"You'll know in a while, they are a group of fearless, cowardly and dirty guys like rats. They also want to find that item, but don't worry, they don't have this ability, and they may not even need you , they'll come out on their own. But I appreciate you, you can do it, right?"

Its eyes narrowed.

"What does it mean to use that item to create a weapon?"

"The power of that item doesn't work for me, but it works for others. Therefore, it can be used to teach Stone Oxenfurt a lesson."

The devil said with a smile, the angle of his mouth was extremely scary:

"I know all the little tricks he made, and I'm also very clear about what he entrusted you to do. According to the contract between me and him, I can't punish him without reason, but that doesn't mean I can't let other people do it." do this."

"A typical devil contract trap."

"No, no, my friend, this is not a trap, it's just that he didn't realize it. Go find the item in the manor that the Watsons family once tried to protect themselves, and then make it into a weapon, and use it to teach a lesson Oxenfurt. Even if he had the immortality I gave him, that weapon could hurt him...even kill him."

Xia De still held the cross flat, which caused a layer of snowflakes to accumulate on his right arm sleeve:
"Don't you worry, I will use the weapon made from that item to defeat you or even expel you."

"Oxenfurt" pursed his lips and made a "tsk tsk" sound:

"It's arrogant, very arrogant. If you want to do this, I suggest you do it after I pay you the reward."

"Are you so sure that I want to take over your commission?"

Xia De asked again.

"Of course you will. After all, it won't do you any harm, will it? Besides, I told you these things. Even without my entrustment, wouldn't you enter the manor and find that item first to make a weapon?" ?"

The demon's voice is like the whisper of the tarsus, light, slick, but very reasonable:
"All you have to decide is whether to teach Oxenfurt a lesson."

Having said that, it made an exaggerated expression of sudden realization:
"Almost forgot, you accepted Haila Oxenfurt's commission to pierce Oxenfurt's chest with a sharp sword and kill him. You see, I even found a weapon for you. As for whether you can Kill him, then it's up to you."

"Have I fallen into your trap since I first met Oxenfurt?"

Xia De asked, the demon still smiled:

"Always winning will make people arrogant. Oxenfurt is like this, and so are you. But fortunately, I am not very interested in you. Your breath is too mixed. Experience tells me that this Often it means big trouble."

It looked at Shad:

"So from this point of view, you have no reason not to accept my commission, after all, this is what you are going to do."

"what can you give me?"

This time Xia De did not refuse, he needed to lure out the demon again, so that Dr. Schneider could do it easily, and after accepting the commission, when the other party showed up to pay, it was the best chance to do it.

Moreover, accepting the entrustment will also make the ancient demon think that Xia De has fallen into his control, which can effectively make the other party relax their vigilance.

"I have a lot of treasures that are good for mortals - unquenchable flames, life-increasing relics, alchemical items that turn into gold, bottles of wine that never run out. I can even give you a copy if you want The treasure book that records the knowledge of demons, I know that even though it is dangerous, it is still very attractive to ring warlocks... To complete my commission, you can choose any one of the five items."

Xia De deliberately waited for two seconds before asking:

"Besides these, can I make my own request? I want to know something about another ancient demon."

"Oh, it seems that your adventure is more exciting than I thought. What do you want to know?"

"You know, [Desire]?"

The title of the beautiful "mermaid" was said by Xia De in this wind and snow. In an instant, it seemed that even the surrounding wind and snow were trembling.For the first time since the demon appeared, the smile on its face disappeared, but then reappeared, and then clapped as it had just appeared:
"So that's the reason. It turns out that your big crime was inspired by her. Yes, that's the reason."

It nodded to Shad:
"Then with this information, the reward is to choose one of six. After you complete my commission, you can naturally choose what you want."

"But how am I going to find you again?"

Xia De asked, if the other party can directly tell its hiding place at this time, Xia De will call Dr. Schneider tonight.

"When you finish my mission, I will go to you. I know that the devil's reputation may be a little bit worse, but don't we always do what we promised?"

Xia De nodded slightly:

"Well, I will enter the manor now to see who the intruder is."

Although the so-called entrustment of the other party seems simple, it is definitely related to the conspiracy against the "Guardians".Xia De didn't believe it, the other party didn't know that he had the power of the earth.This is a tacit matter, and it only depends on whose method is better in the end.

"No, no, there is one more thing that hasn't been done."

The demon shook his head at Shad:
"Although you agreed to the entrustment, what if you leave this city, or tell the Orthodox Church about this? Let me give you a mark, which is an ancient devil's engraving, which can even improve your The probability of gaining the power of blasphemy and whispers enhances your sinful power."

"I don't want any mark."

Before Xia De finished his sentence, a strange feeling came to his heart. In his eyes, the snowflakes blowing obliquely towards his cheeks were almost completely still, and "Ston Oxenfurt" seemed to be in slow motion, step by step. Walking towards him, circled around to avoid the sacrilegious cross he was holding up, and then stretched out a scorched hand, trying to grab his face.

[The power of time, it almost stops time. 】

"Since it stopped time, why did I almost forget it? Because I know the secret of time and understand the bridge spanning the first five eras and the present era, so I can be selectively immune to the power of time."

Thinking in his heart, while the snowflakes were almost still and the devil slowly came with a slick smile, Xia De stared at his black eyes, turned around at a normal speed, and pointed the silver cross in his hand at the devil again.

Because of the opponent's slow motion, Xia De clearly saw how the smile on the devil's face stiffened and disappeared.
