This lich needs more money

Chapter 272 Those Forgotten Heroes and Secrets

Hildas glared at Amber Xiu, it was this lich that made him unable to retreat.

Looking at Arthur Lane with a confused face, Hildas could only sigh.

Hildas walked into the house, sat in front of Arthur Lane, and said in a sad tone: "I didn't want to tell you at first, because it has nothing to do with you. You have given too much to the world, and your heroic spirit should not Carrying these sad past events will not help the future.

"But since the lich has deduced the truth to this point, then I will tell you the truth at that time. All of this is related to the dragon tyrant."

Amber Xiu then asked: "Is it because of the dragon's blood curse?"

Hildas glanced at Amberxiu, and then said: "It seems that your research on history is indeed very in-depth, far beyond my expectation."

Amberxiu said proudly: "Of course, I am not an ordinary scholar."

Hildas' mouth twitched. This lich is not humble at all.

The old Elf King didn't want to listen to Amber Xiu's continued rant, so he turned to the topic:

"Arthur, you are the most upright and selfless person I have ever met, and the same is true for the country you established. It should have been the brightest country in the world. But unfortunately, you were killed in the final battle with the dragon. Dragon Blood Curse, the bloodline of the demonic dragon is closely integrated with you, and even the fragments of the demonic dragon’s soul are hidden in your soul.”

Hildas' explanation made James Watson exclaim: "This is impossible! How could His Majesty be contaminated by the dragon? He has never behaved as a tyrant!"

Hildas sighed and said: "This is what I admire about him. Originally, the blood and soul of the dragon were hidden deep in Arthur's body and soul, so that he himself did not discover it. It was not until the founding of Ryan that he worshiped the dragon. When the church was purged, Arthur was already in his sixties. In order to set an example for future generations, he firmly refused to use potions to extend his life. Coupled with the old injuries in the first half of his life, he was already very weak at that time. At this time, he discovered that the dragon's blood curse was beginning to take effect.

"The bloodline of the demonic dragon is engulfing his body, and the fragments of the demonic dragon's soul are affecting his consciousness. By the time he found me for help, he was almost unable to hold on. He has been fighting this curse alone for too many years, and his whole body They are all on their deathbed.”

Amberxiu interrupted again: "The Lord of the Dawn didn't take action?"

This time, it was Arthur Lane himself who explained: "With my personality, I should not ask the Lord of the Morning for help."

Amberxiu asked in surprise: "Why?"

Arthur Lane explained: "I believe in the Lord of the Morning, just because the path I want to practice is consistent with his teachings, but I have never prayed to him for anything. If it is the charity of the gods that can solve the dragon tyrant , then can another god also help this dragon tyrant? The dragon clan has more than one god, so the dragon clan has a greater advantage in this regard.

"Therefore, during our fight against the Dragon Tyrant, no god intervened. It is precisely because of this that we were able to hide from the Dragon Tyrant and steal his artifact."

Amber Xiu understood that this was the tacit understanding between the gods. No one interfered, and it was up to the believers to do their own thing. Otherwise, if a blessing is given here and an artifact is given there, the intensity of the war may increase, and the entire continent may be completely destroyed.

"Even if the winner has been decided, the Lord of the Dawn still can't interfere?" Amber Xiu asked.

The old elf king shook his head and said: "Actually, the winner has not yet been determined at that time, because once the dragon tyrant successfully controls Arthur, it means that the dragon clan has won. He can have a hundred ways to destroy the newly established Ryan, and there are other Kingdom, let the Dragon Clan return to dominance."

Now An Boxiu understood. What an insidious dragon, he could actually make a comeback like this.

Amberxiu continued: "So, Arthur Lane disappeared when he was eighty years old, because at that time he could no longer suppress the dragon's thoughts. In order not to be succeeded by the dragon, he chose to abdicate and then disappeared. ”

"How do you know so clearly?" Hildas asked.

“I studied history very deeply.”

James Watson couldn't bear it anymore and asked: "You said that His Majesty was controlled by the dragon, but why did he come back later? Historical records indicate that His Majesty actually traveled to the mainland and did not return to the empire until he was a hundred years old. and then enjoy his old age in the imperial capital."

"The reason why he came back is because Arthur lost." Hildas showed a painful expression and continued: "It is not Arthur who comes back, but the dragon. He has controlled Arthur's body."

Amberxiu interrupted: "No! Wait a minute! If the dragon controls Arthur Lane, why is he still dead? He can live longer by taking a sip of the youth potion!"

"Yes, the dragon is indeed planning to do this, but Arthur told me before leaving that if everything goes well, he will die in a place no one knows and rot completely with the dragon. Once he returns to Ryan, he will lose , and I am his final preparation..."

At this point, Hildas was already in tears.

Amberxiu guessed the cruel answer: "You killed Arthur Lane, no, you killed Arthur Lane controlled by the dragon."

James Watson stood up excitedly and said angrily: "Is what this lich said true? Did you kill His Majesty?!"

Hildas blushed and roared: "I killed him. That was my best friend's last request in life. I can only fulfill his wish! But I don't know. I can't be sure that it is Arthur who comes back." It was still a dragon. I had no choice but to kill him."

The aging Arthur Lane no longer had any ability to resist. At the last moment, the dragon still tried hard to play Arthur Lane, begging Hildas to let him go.

Over the years, Hildas often asked himself, could it be that he had made a mistake? Maybe Arthur really won, but just changed his mind and came back. Could he have killed his friend by mistake?

This doubt slowly turned into a shackles, making him age faster than other elves. Many elves of the same age looked to be in their forties or fifties, but Hildas's face was already wrinkled, as if he was going to die at any moment.

Others only thought that the Elf King was busy with work and spent too much energy on him, but they didn't know that he had this secret hidden in his heart.

Arthur Lane's heroic spirit looked at the crazy old elf, patted him on the shoulder and said: "Hildas, don't blame yourself, you did the right thing. I have never failed to do anything I promised, and that one suddenly came back Arthur must be fake."

Hearing Arthur Lane's words, the old elf with white hair cried like a child. He had been carrying the guilt of killing his best friend for more than a thousand years, but he never expected that he would have the chance to hear the other party forgive him.

Amber Xiu agreed with what the heroic spirit said. This heroic spirit had guarded this artifact for more than a thousand years and was not at all relaxed when he was discovered by Amber Xiu.

The heroic spirits are like this, and so am I.

Arthur Lane is worthy of the name of a hero.

Before, Amber Xiu only thought that this person was quite powerful, but the more he got to know him, the more he admired him. Not only is he powerful, but more importantly, his willpower and spirit of sacrifice have surpassed most mortals.

After finally waiting for Hildas to calm down, Amberxiu continued to ask: "I have three more questions. First, why is Arthur Lane hiding instead of coming to Silvermoon Highgarden to ask you for help?"

Hildas did not need to answer this question. The heroic spirit explained: "If it were me, the reason is very simple. I am afraid that Hildas has been with me for a long time and did not notice that I have transformed. Because the magic dragon will also be here. Observing Hildas over time, in the end his acting skills will become even more flawless.

"Therefore, an agreement that cannot be broken is the best proof. Arthur Lane who violates the agreement must be fake."

Amber Xiu expressed his admiration, this is really not ordinary cruelty.

"Second question, after Arthur Lane died, why didn't this secret be made public?" Amberxiu asked again.

Hildas had also recovered at this time, and explained in a hoarse voice: "Because it will cause a melee on the mainland, too few people know about the dragon's blood curse, and I killed Arthur because only the two of us knew it. agreement.

"The Ryan people may not believe it. Once suspicion starts, it will trigger a big melee. Another point is that if this secret is known to everyone and everyone believes it, then Arthur's bloodline will be completely cut off. No one wants to take the risk Let the blood of the dragon be passed down to the world, so all of Arthur’s descendants will be killed.”

Amber Xiu asked strangely: "Then you are not afraid that the blood of the demon dragon will really be passed down?"

Hildas said: "Blood is blood, soul is soul. There are so many lives in the world with dragon blood, who has become a dragon tyrant? Because this tiny probability makes Arthur extinct, we cannot treat a hero like this ”

Amber Xiu chuckled, and then said: "Now it seems that you are wrong. The blood of the dragon is corrupting the Ryan royal family and turning them into new tyrants."

Hildas was silent, he could not refute.

"Hahaha, I used to wonder how the Lord of the Morning could see Ryan become like this, even if he just gave an oracle to correct it. Now I understand, because that war continues until now. This thousand For years, the dragon continued to use his bloodline to fight for control of the Lane clan.

"The war has not subsided, so the Lord of the Dawn still cannot take action. He can only use some indirect methods to affect the outcome. No wonder Ryan has not collapsed for so many years, because the promoted paladins and priests are all upright people, so Ryan Only the royal family was corrupted, not the important officials of the empire.

"It all makes sense that the Lord of the Morning is using this to maintain Llane's stability."

Amber Xiu finally figured out the biggest mystery. It turned out that the bet between the gods has continued until now and there is still no winner.

Is the coming drastic change in the world also related to this gamble?

Will there be a major change in the bet, or... will this bet end?

Amber Xiu's analysis shocked everyone. The war with the dragon tyrant has lasted for more than a thousand years and it hasn't ended yet?

Hildas said excitedly: "It seems that the Lord of the Morning's method is quite effective."

Amberxiu said: "What's the use of light blocking? The magic dragon is winning this war. They have polluted Ryan with their extreme thoughts. Now they are only one step away from complete collapse."

Hildas agrees with Ambrose's statement that Ryan is indeed in danger now, and it seems that he may collapse completely at any time.

"You said you had three questions. What's the last question?" Hildas asked.

"Oh, I just thought of the answer to this question. I originally wanted to ask, in the story, the demons are fighting for the body of the Holy King. It should have two meanings. One is that the blood of the demon dragon is fighting for Arthur Lane's body, and the other is that the demon dragon's blood is fighting for Arthur Lane's body. The double meaning refers to the dragon weapon made from the corpse of the dragon, right?"

Hildas nodded and said to Amber Xiu: "Yes, if the magic dragon wants to be completely resurrected, it must use the magic dragon arm. In fact, Arthur said before leaving that he hopes to use the parts of the magic dragon arm. Separately stored in each kingdom to prevent the resurrection of the dragon. Unfortunately, his son did not know the inside story and thought it was Ryan's most powerful artifact, so he rejected this arrangement."

Amberxiu suddenly understood and said: "So, this is what the representatives of various countries argued with Ryan at the funeral. No wonder after the funeral, the relationship between Ryan and various countries took a turn for the worse. The second-generation Emperor Ryan believed that other kingdoms were taking advantage of his father's death to compete for the empire. Because of the artifact, he had a grudge against the foreign races, and coupled with the influence of the dragon bloodline, he began to become extremely hostile to the foreign races. "

After figuring out all the secrets, Amberxiu turned to James Watson and said: "Now, I will use Arthur Lane's heroic spirit to exchange your magic dragon weapons. Shouldn't it be a problem?"
