quicksilver blood

Chapter 116 Limited Mercy

"what……"

Claude opened his mouth and looked up at Roland, but he couldn't make a sound.

The intense numbness that seemed to be petrified shook his whole body, his lips trembled, his legs were cold, and his internal organs twitched.

Kluveen on the side had been staring blankly for a long time, but under the warning of Claudia's eyes, he didn't dare to take any action.

"It took 13 seconds to attack... your body is really strong."

Facing Claude's eyes full of unwillingness, anger and doubt, Roland's face was expressionless, so flat that it was almost indifferent.

"I know you don't understand why I would kill you... To be honest, I don't understand why we have the same goal, but we have to fight each other."

"However, the biggest difference between me and you, Father Claude, is that I have a lower bottom line than you. So, I stand up and you fall - I have learned such things a long time ago... Yes, I have already learned Learned."

Roland muttered to himself, and walked step by step towards Claude who fell to the ground.

The black robe on his body was slowly untied by Roland, and gradually slid to the ground with Roland's steps.

At the same time, the spider web guard was thrown by Roland, and it was thrown high into the air.

Suddenly, the large gray spider web seemed to come alive, bouncing and trapping Roland in it.

A dark green light flashed before Roland's eyes——

Agares?what kind of rubbish is that...

Roland smiled contemptuously.

It's just the demon lord, not the two Sons of Twilight.At most, it is a waste of the highest spire level.

The origin of demons in Farnes World is different from other games.

These demons were all because the Silver Queen accidentally cut through the Furnace of the Wild with a sword during the battle of the gods, and part of the chaotic magic power that had not been transformed leaked to several elemental planes, piercing a big hole.

Immediately, under the constant pollution of chaotic magic power, none of the aborigines of these planes and some tourists from other worlds survived, and all of them were transformed into new monsters.

These creatures are known as demons in Lost Christmas.Until then, the word demon was a complement to the devil.

In this day and age, the only ones who understand demons are the Cultists of the Howler.

It's just a spider infected by the dusk. Even if Agares came and saw the Sleeping Mentor, he would have to pass by quickly with his tail between his legs—if it had a tail.

As expected, Roland did not expect it.After he put on this dress, the spider web, which was still active before, immediately let out a sharp scream.

It was sharp and full of hatred, just like the call of a demon before dying.The desperate cry was like substance, and the dust around Roland retreated to the surroundings. In front of Roland, Claude, whose resistance was completely stripped off, showed a painful expression as if someone had beaten his chest hard.

"Glory to the Master—"

Roland prayed in a low voice.

"You are able to strengthen me, because I am in harmony with the gospel you have preached, and with the truth you have revealed."

"Nirola, my lord, please take care of me and answer me, so that there may be light in my eyes, so that I will not fall into eternal sleep."

Immediately, the silver-gray light spot exploded centered on Roland, but nothing was damaged.Only the cobwebs on Roland's robe suddenly disappeared completely as if being scraped off by a wooden stick, revealing a pure black long black robe without any decoration.

Afterwards, a slender silver cross pattern emerged on Roland's chest, and the stench of flesh and blood on the original robe disappeared completely, replaced by a graveyard-like decaying smell mixed with the smell of spices.

And its attributes have also quietly changed——

- My god is here.

really.Same as in game.

Roland couldn't help showing a smile.

Demonic items become holy as long as they are washed with holy water or holy rites from the holy ones.Just like a sponge absorbs water, these things will also absorb the power of a saint while eliminating the devil's breath, until it becomes a higher-level equipment.

According to the power consumed by the saints, the quality of these demon items will vary from a small level to a large level.For example, Roland's change from dark green to dark blue is a situation where his character explodes.

Although it may be the care of the Eternal Sleeping Instructor, Roland would rather believe that this is compensation from the black hand he had in the Thousand Heads Tomb.

The so-called conservation of character...

However, although Roland smiled because of the upgrade of this piece of equipment, in Claude's eyes, this smile was an undisguised mockery.

"I heard your prayer...a prayer I've never heard before. Are you a priest of a false god? Roland?"

Claude growled hoarsely at Roland, the voice was so small that it was almost lost in the air.His chest was pumping like a bellows, and his face was red.

Roland almost laughed at his words.

False god?

"Of course not, Father Claude."

Facing Claude's question, Roland just shook his head frankly.

Roland still decided not to talk about saints and gods.

After all, in Claude's view, he was not wrong.Now that the revival of the plague has not yet come, almost no normal-thinking people will doubt the legitimacy of the authority of the gods.Let alone the pastors.

Roland would rather let Claude die in anger and become a heroic spirit, and finally be destroyed together with Sivir in Roland's hands, than let him go to hell with a shattered heart of faith.

He is a devout believer.

Believers should die like believers.
This is the limited mercy that Roland can give him.

"It's good that you're not a believer in a false god...you're not a cultist either, right?"

But Claude didn't seem to hear Roland's words, and just continued on his own: "Gods are one family. We love our gods as they love me. I'm glad you have your own beliefs, because you can hear Gospel of God, instead of taking the wind howling in the southern woods for truth—”

"Naturally. But I'm sure you didn't say that to me in the hope of your life."

There was no pity in Roland's eyes, as calm as water.

With that said, Roland took the black reagent bottle from Claudia.Then, black fangs grew out from the mouth of the reagent bottle.

Suddenly, Claude's face was full of anger.

"It's really scarlet fangs...the Ashes! Roland, you—"

"If you die while praying to Tyre, you will not enter Sivir's kingdom of God, but fall into Tyre's arms. This is probably more terrifying to you than death."

Roland interrupted Claude's words loudly, and waved his pitch-black fangs into Claude's neck like an injection, and the part that penetrated into the skin began to melt instantly.

Before Claude could respond to Roland's words, his pupils dilated instantly, and black lines like tiger stripes appeared on Claude's face.

He immediately fell to the ground and lost his vitality.

"rest in peace--"

Roland prayed in a low voice.

Facing Claude's corpse, he didn't lower his head, but held his head high, as if he was watching the sky and watching Claude's soul gradually go away.

There is only one thing that is different from what Roland thought.That is, until the end of his prayer, his eye sockets were extremely dry.

Roland was sad because of this.
