Demon Lord

Chapter 263 [The Devout]

The Duke's Mansion in the snowstorm was quite different from the quiet and solemn one in the past. When the temple guards and private soldiers of the Duke's Mansion sent Rody's team to the front of the mansion, the whole square was overcrowded for a while.

As the welcoming party, seven or eight baron viscounts wore thick cloaks and stood expressionlessly beside the mansion, faintly highlighting the Duke of Angmar and Bishop Benjamin in the center.

The two high-ranking old men are so motivating, it is naturally impossible for Rody to wait for the carriage to stop in front of him before getting out of the carriage. Although he feels a little dissatisfied and helpless, he must choose an appropriate posture to deal with such ostentation— —

Rody, who had passed the political IQ, jumped out of the carriage all the way, cursing in his heart the schemes of these two old fellows against him, and greeted him with a flattered expression: Your Excellency, Your Excellency Bishop, Fortunately, life is not disgraceful, but this kind of courtesy really makes me a little unbearable.

Rody thought he would see the satisfied and even proud smiles of the two old men, but after getting closer, he found that the Duke of Angmar's face was not in a good mood—his face was pale, his lips were bruised, and although his eyes were still sharp, there were bags under his eyes. But it was swollen badly, and it was obvious that he was ill.

This is…

Let's deal with it first, and I will explain the specific reason to you tonight.

The Duke said this to Rody in a low voice—then he smiled and said loudly: It should be called a blessing that the Luciferon family has a member like you. I have seen all your efforts. As the captain of my guard, your contribution to the territory and even the kingdom is worthy of my cultivation of you.

Roddy immediately realized that Angmar's gesture was for the nobles next to him—although he didn't know why he became the Captain of the Guard, he still made a quick decision, saluted respectfully, and whispered through his teeth Asked, What do I need to do?

Just finish this meal...

After Bishop Benjamin finished speaking, he raised his hand and released a Holy Light Technique, and said with a pious face: Captain Roddy led the team to fight bravely, killing the Blightcaller, Magda, and made outstanding achievements. Cleared up the existence of another evil in the world...

As he said that, he took out a piece of parchment with a wave of sacred aura. The wax seal with two keys on it represented that this was the Sacred Word from the Rosary Cross temple. The surroundings were still contemptuous of Rody. The nobleman's expression changed slightly, and his body straightened involuntarily.

Captain Roddy will be Rose Cross, forever friend from now on.

This oracle is not limited to this brief sentence, but Benjamin only read so much--but the meaning it represents is also enough⊥The ordinary nobles gasped: there is such a formal oracle , Luo Di is equivalent to having the big backer of Rose Cross

Amidst the sound of discussions, the Duke of Angmar coughed a few times and announced that everyone would attend the dinner.

For Rody, wearing a fake mask and talking nonsense with these nobles for two hours is not difficult. What he cares more about is the specific reason that the two old people just said to him.

Could it be that they have other reasons for doing this?

The extravagant dinner ended hurriedly after more than two hours because the Duke of Angmar was unwell. The nobles all expressed their understanding. After bidding farewell to Rody politely, the Duke's mansion finally fell silent.

Su Lun and Nata were not qualified to attend the dinner, and Rody was not worried about their treatment, presumably Angmar would not treat his own people badly—after the last baron left the restaurant, Rody was led by the maid When they arrived at the large study room on the second floor of the mansion, they saw the Duke of Angmar and Bishop Benjamin again.

But this time, it was honesty.

At this time, the atmosphere in the study was not as festive as at the dinner table. The Duke of Angmar's cough was harsh, and Bishop Benjamin's face was slightly worried. The Sacred Edict handed it to Roddy with both hands, and said: The dinner in the afternoon is mainly to convey an attitude to the outside world, and at the same time to give you an identity. There is a reason for the incident, and I didn't have time to inform you. I hope you can listen to Angmar's words. sentence explanation.

These are actually very polite words. The identities of Roddy and Bishop Benjamin are completely different, but he put himself in an equal position with Roddy. Encyclical: I was just surprised and hope to find out what happened as soon as possible.

Cough cough... The maid heard the coughing sound and hurriedly brought hot water for the Duke, but Angmar waved her hand after grabbing the water cup: You guys step back first.

When the gate was closed, Angmar didn't exchange pleasantries, and said bluntly to Roddy: The deaths of Magda and Ansadin are public information, but no one knows that you did it. I also tried my best to arrange people to pass on some information. The information confuses the public and dilutes your existence, but there was an accident a few days ago-someone made your identity public.

Public? Mine?

Luo Di was greatly surprised, and raised his eyebrows immediately: What's going on?

I can't find out, this is where I find it difficult. Angmar shook his head, tried to breathe steadily and continued: The news appeared suddenly, and some things you did before were made public. position, current territory location, how many heretics have been killed...

This information makes you immediately wanted by cross B. In order to protect you, we have to do this.

These words made Rody frowned deeply.

Such an explanation barely satisfies him, but he is still a little upset, because now he is tied to the Rose Cross and the Luciferon Family to death, and he not only has to bear the burden of being wanted by the Viper Cross risk, but also to bear the open guns and hidden arrows of the enemies behind these two forces at the same time...

There are good and bad results. Rody was silent for a moment, not wanting to talk, but in order to avoid embarrassment, he looked down at the Sacred Book - but then the prompt that jumped out in front of him caught Rody's eyes. Bright: This parchment issued by the Pope himself actually gave Roddy a new title

【Pious】

The prestige of Rose Cross is automatically increased to [Respect], and the effect increase is increased by -0 when receiving divine blessings (it will still be maintained after switching).

Obviously, Rody made great contributions to the sect by killing the two great enemies of the dead, Magda the Blightcaller and Ansadin, and the destruction of Kevin the Executioner was also a great achievement. The title is really a one-shot fight, there is no fluke.

3% BUF effect increase is definitely a big number, if it is the power blessing of fl2 power, with this title, the effect can be increased to fl3 power. And a divine animal husbandry who is intensively cultivating the Benefit System can generally obtain 6B similar BUFs. If he obtains all BUFs with such a title, it may not be a problem to double his strength.

The most powerful thing is that the BUF gained by the title of [The Pious] will not disappear because of switching titles... Open the [Pious], brush up the BUF, switch to the title of [The Last Demon Hunter], then there will be more The 3 buff effect does not reduce half points at all

worth it

Relieved in his heart, Rody raised his head, only to see the blood oozing from the fingertips of the Duke of Angmar when he coughed violently.

this--

He immediately realized that the Duke's illness might not be that simple, and immediately looked at Benjamin next to him, but the bishop shook his head: I have used too much magic, and it has no effect.

These words made Rody narrow his eyes, Duke Angmar slowed down, hunched over his body, raised his eyes, and said word by word: I know you still have resentment in your heart... To be honest, here you are, captain of the guard. , the title does have my selfishness in it.

...If the war is really coming as you said, I only hope——you can use the resources of this family to protect Sally and not let her be wronged.

Helping Sally instead of helping the Duke of Angmar, this is already the most obvious ordering the funeral.

People are selfish, but is Angmar selfish or selfless in doing so? Luo Di couldn't come up with a complete definition for a while, but he felt that... such a father should be worthy of his respect

Anyway, I don't plan to continue to live in seclusion behind the scenes anymore, and such a change, it is not a major event that cannot be dealt with.

Roddy exhaled slowly, and the last trace of dissatisfaction in his heart disappeared. Seeing the Duke wiping the blood with a handkerchief, he asked, Have you ever taken any medicine?

I drank a dozen mid-level healing potions, and it doesn't work much now.

Benjamin's voice was heavy, and it was obvious that he had given up any hope for the potion.

There are some rare potions in Ansadin's legacy. I'll ask someone to look for them. Maybe... it can delay for a while.

Rody is telling the truth. Although the potions in the game are powerful, the law of birth, old age, sickness and death cannot be ignored. The Duke of Angmar has been tossed by the soul extraction potion for five years, and his body is exhausted. He can survive until now because of his good foundation in the past. If he were an ordinary person, he would have died long ago.

What tortured Angmar was the weakness of the body and serious illnesses. If I remembered correctly, Rody did have medicine to alleviate the symptoms—although it could not be cured, it could guarantee Angmar to survive for a while.

How long is the delay?

Ansardin looked up slightly.

Should be able to survive this winter. Rody didn't ask the other party if he wanted it, and said directly: Now send someone to Paarling, and they should be able to get it in a week.

Angmar nodded silently, without saying thank you or other polite words.

The atmosphere was somewhat silent, Benjamin thought for a while, and said: I received a letter from Bishop Rubens the day before yesterday, which was a notice of a change in position... Next spring, I will be promoted to the archbishop of the diocese.

Efta Parish? Rody raised his head slightly, recalled it, and changed his words: No, it should be Bodog Parish.

Benjamin glanced at Roddy in surprise, nodded and said, It's Bodog Parish.

Congratulations, Lord Bishop. In five years, you may be able to take the position of Lord Rubens.

This is the second good news Roddy heard today.
