quicksilver blood

Chapter 358 Demon Hunter

The core idea of ​​Edward's talk in this round is that "that person" wants to keep Roland until the Druid Lord comes over, and then offer Roland as a sacrifice for internal organs.If Roland waited until that Lord Druid came over, Roland would be dead.

Roland said that if he believed it, 24K would be a fool.

There are too many loopholes in Edward's words. From the perspective of God, they are simply full of loopholes:
Who is "that person" in the end, Edward did not mention it in the end; what important information Roland has on Roland that requires a master Druid to come and perform internal organ divination, Edward did not make it clear.These appropriate blank spaces are for Roland to make up for himself.

If Roland didn't know the details of Edward, maybe he might have fallen for him.For example, Roland may think that "that person" is Farina, and that Druid is actually an ashes or howler who penetrated into Druid, and he came here to execute Roland in a fair manner. of.

As for when Farina had such great energy, and how the "Master Druid" discovered Roland's identity, Roland himself would give appropriate reasons.Preconceptions are so powerful that even tangible evidence can be distorted in its presence.

But now, the harder Edward worked, the more Roland doubted his real purpose.

Although Roland's strengthened mercury blood was enough to allow him to escape from this level of prison, Edward didn't know about it.

Roland narrowed his eyes slightly.

If he were Edward, what would he do now...

That's right... After successfully capturing Roland, he can kill or torture Roland directly. This is undoubtedly the most direct way to vent his anger - but it is also the one with the lowest returns.Not only did he expose the fact that he was not dead, but he also aroused the anger of his mentor, and at the same time he did not get any benefits.

You know, Higgs also took care of Roland.If Edward just killed Roland, there would be no real benefit other than saving himself, on the contrary, he would cause big trouble.

Then, the correct solution should be to let Roland do things for him, and it is best to lure Roland into the road of twilight.Now it seems that Bernard is Edward's temptation.

It would be the best situation if Roland couldn't bear the mental pollution and twilight after killing Bernard.And if Roland's willpower is so strong that he completely ignores the infection of Dusk, then Edward will kill Roland even if he gets into trouble with his mentor to avoid future troubles.

However, Roland's pupil color has turned into emerald.This means that Roland has been somewhat affected, and his willpower is completely in the category of mortals—that is, below [-] o'clock, when facing the mental pollution of dusk, he can only rely on his face.

Because of this, Edward decided to save Roland's life.Because Orwell is dead, all the clues except the professor are cut off, and Roland has no way to track down who is behind the scenes.

And the professor is notorious for coming and going without a trace.By the time Roland found the professor, Edward had already made a lot of money by using Roland's name, and at the same time caused Roland a lot of trouble.

……interesting.

There was a flash of understanding in Roland's eyes.

That's right.With Roland's personality, if he learns the truth at that time, he will most likely put Edward aside and give priority to resolving the urgent conflict before him.

Really close.If Roland hadn't happened to be familiar with Thanas...

But now, Roland can do whatever he can—

"So, what can I do for you?"

After patiently listening to the pile of general knowledge about Druid, Roland asked very respectfully.

"Tannas" said nothing, stretched out his hand and pressed it on the iron chain wrapped around Roland's body. The surrounding stars gradually shone and connected themselves, forming a large pattern in an instant.

A dark golden flame quietly ignited between his fingers, and his fingers lightly slid over the iron chain on Roland's body. The solid iron chain melted and broke in two like butter cut by a scorching knife. Half.Before the chains broke and fell off, Roland's skin was also scorched and a circle of fine blisters swelled up, and a strong redness appeared on the skin.

But after all the iron chains fell off, a silvery white light flashed across the skin of Roland's body, and healed slowly at a speed visible to the naked eye.

[Your metal allergy (mild) is reduced to metal allergy (weak), all checks get +1 disadvantage]

[Your metal allergy (weak) has been relieved]

As the iron chain fell off, the slight discomfort on Roland's body gradually dissipated.

Probably because of the body of mercury, the chains on his body always wanted to enter Roland's body.But Roland's body really couldn't tolerate these foreign bodies, so he had a very strong rejection reaction.

The characteristic of the body of mercury does not mean that Roland has become a Terminator.For mercury, sulfur, and salt have special significance in the world of Farnese.Although mercury is still considered a metal, at a higher level, it represents "will", just as sulfur represents "desire" and salt represents "reason".In the realm of the covenant, those who violate the contract will be turned into a pillar of salt or a block of brimstone according to the specific situation, which represents the imbalance between "desire" and "reason".

If he wanted to be a qualified death crow, Roland had to abandon his own judgment.But as a pope, he doesn't have to.

Feeling the gradually revived sanctified quicksilver, Roland clenched his fists.The burns on his skin have healed.

Seeing this, "Tanas" said in a deep voice: "I guessed right. You are indeed an undead."

"...That's right."

Roland hesitated for a moment, showing a puzzled expression: "Is there any problem? Wizards should not reject undead."

"I don't reject it...but..." The old wizard hesitated for a moment, his eyes showed determination, "I should let you know. It happens to have something to do with what I want to ask you to do."

The show is coming——

Roland immediately cheered up and listened intently.

"There is a witcher among Earl Orwell's followers. If he is here, there will be a delay in any witchcraft I perform."

Roland's pupils shrank slightly.

Sure enough, "Tanas" said something that Roland didn't know at all.

The witcher is the sworn enemy of the Wizard of the White Tower, and his sphere of influence is near the Broken Isles in the south of Titan.They hate undead, wizards, barbarians, and even silver species such as elves.They are a very small number of extreme humanists among the Titans. They don't believe in any gods, but they execute inhuman heretics according to the standards of gods.

Although their leader is not very powerful, but because he holds two relatively high "shards", after paying a huge price, he also has a strength that cannot be ignored.What's even more frightening is that the "forbidden" ability in one of the fragments can replicate itself.

Every witcher has a copy of this shard.In the Witcher's vicinity, any supernatural abilities will be slightly disturbed, becoming more pronounced the closer one gets.For spellcasters like priests and druids who win by quantity, it's okay, but the power of divine spells will decrease-but for wizards, which perform delicate tasks, it's just positioning errors and a decrease in success rate.

Because of the threat of demon hunters to wizards, the White Tower sends a group of combat wizards to attack them every year, but the demon hunters finally managed to survive until the White Tower was crusaded... Although in the end they still entered because they were on the wrong team. Ben.

"It seems that you probably know what a demon hunter is... Then you should also know how powerful a demon hunter is to interfere with a wizard. Especially this demon hunter is a gold-ranked weapon master. There is simply no way to take him."

"Tanas" spread his hands helplessly.

Roland was silent for a long time, and then asked: "Then what do you mean? Do you want me to kill him?"

If Edward really said that, Roland would have punched him in the face on the spot.

Are you kidding me... I only heard that the silver-ranked ones can't beat the boss and ask the gold-ranked ones to help, but I've never heard that the gold-ranked ones can't beat the boss and ask the silver-ranked ones to give away their heads.

But Edward is obviously not stupid.

He shook his head and explained: "I just want you to lure him away. Just stay 300 meters away from here... In that case, I can build the starry sky gate."

"...You don't think I can outrun a weapon master, do you?"

Roland looked unhappy.

Edward shook his head quickly: "No, no, no... I will send you back after the Star Gate is summoned."

"I'm relieved when you say that."

Roland nodded.

...If you put it that way, I will be able to determine in what link you are trying to trick me.

Roland would bet that Edward would never teleport himself back.But it doesn't matter, Roland didn't intend to fight him at all.

He thinks for himself.

"So, what's the name of that witcher?"

"Arsu. Arzu Favill, a pure-blood mountain man," "Tanas" said meaningfully, "you will recognize him when you see him."
