Blood of Mercury

"May you drink wine and fight day and night in Sivir's Hall of Valor."

"—Rest in peace, as your Lord has promised."

Roland squinted his eyes and looked directly at the rare blazing sunshine in this winter, and his low and subtle prayer finally ended.

As early as when Roland was praying for him, his soul had risen from his body and returned to the kingdom of God, the dormant teacher.

After Roland's prayer ended, his body shattered into pieces, turning into large silver light spots, and then condensed into the cane he used during his lifetime.

[You killed a guardian (silver rank) with your own hands, and extracted the power of the source... Because the more you kill your enemy, the more experience you get, the 144% bonus you get, and you finally get 176 experience points 】

176 points of experience, not even a fraction of what Roland had at the moment. The only compensation is Claude's relic - the cane sword.

Roland stepped forward, bent down and picked up the sword.

The pattern of the wheel of the chariot has disappeared, replaced by a silver-gray cross.

【Glory of Claude】

stick sword

light blue delicate

Tough 5.3, Hard 3, Sharp 5.3, Weight 3.2

Special effects: Pseudo-iron (although it is very similar, but its texture is not metal, so it will not be affected by sorcery that resists or detects metal), Battle Edge (by injecting divine grace, the sharpness can be greatly increased, up to 10.0), hard (its texture is so hard that 3 points of sharpness can be ignored against the cut-off characteristic)

Enchantment: Attack Stance - Holy Blade

——The former owner of this equipment was only successfully attacked once until his death. And this will be the capital of his boasting in front of Sivir.

A light blue special weapon.

In a sense, this was Roland's only return for killing Claude.

"Claudia, do you think I did something wrong?"

Even though the prayer was over, Roland still stared blankly at the sky, expressionless.

His heart was still aching at the moment. It was like a mad viper dancing in its belly, but it was as heavy as lead.

shouldn't be...

Roland silently clenched his chest.

In Roland's impression, he and Claude didn't have much relationship. Even in the beginning, they were prepared to kill them after getting through the stubborn oak fan lock.

After that, Roland chose to let them go because he wanted to take advantage of An Ruosi's opportunity to infiltrate the White Tower.

At that time, Roland just regarded them as ordinary.

But since when. I began to realize that these people are not a piece of data with a background setting, but have a complete life, flesh and blood, who love them and their loved ones, are important individuals who cannot be isolated from the world?

- Unable to recall.

I don't know when I started to grieve for the loss of these lives.

At this moment, Roland's chest tightened like wax. Hearts and minds became plumb heavy.

Is this... is he starting to become weak?

Roland couldn't help asking himself.

"I don't like the way you do things, Your Excellency Roland."

Claudia frowned and said word by word: "Although I know that you are doing it for my own good, this method... really has nothing to do with justice, it's just a small method. If we can't stand on the side of justice The long-sleeping mentor will be very distressed."

Contrary to Roland's own expectations, Roland gained a little peace from Claudia's rebuke.

This is what is called "I'll be better off if you scold me."

Roland had never experienced this kind of feeling before, and this ugly feeling, perhaps mixed with guilt and shame, gave Roland a deep sense of joy.

Since Roland's records, Roland has not been able to realize whether what he is doing is right or wrong. In order to protect himself, Roland subconsciously believed that what he did was absolutely right.

Therefore, when Roland was very young, he was a very stubborn child. He will only stubbornly implement his initial decision and never accept the opinions of others. What's more terrifying is that Roland is learning very fast, much faster than his sister in a sense.

This is clearly a mental illness. This made Roland unable to contact normal society. It is not even possible to enter school before university.

However, when Roland was eighteen until twenty-four, his condition improved a lot. Unable to judge right or wrong, Roland transferred the decision-making power to his sister, which made him controllable and deepened his dependence on his family.

But after the death of his parents and sister, Roland's condition deteriorated further, and he even had frequent hallucinations. This made Roland have to perform mental treatment frequently, but in fact, it did not achieve any good results.

However, after Roland came to the world of Farnes, his mental condition has been improving.

The most intuitive point is that he began to deny his own opinion.

Question for Claudia. Roland did not respond.

"This robe is a little tight."

He just looked up at the air as if nothing had happened, felt that his breathing was a little suffocated, and loosened the neckline of the black robe.

"Your Excellency Roland!"

Seeing that Roland didn't seem to be ready to respond, Claudia's tone couldn't help being a little heavier.

"Okay. Claudia, I understand...I understand everything!"

"I don't want to kill Father Claude either! But do we have a way? Do you have it? Do you have it!"

Roland's hysterical roar suddenly made Claudia quiet.

She was silent for a long time, and finally lowered her head: "Sorry, I am..."

"A little anxious, right? Claude is your teacher after all..."

Roland whispered, his voice full of fragility: "You take Kluveen out of here and explain. Let me be alone for a while? I need to pray."

"Okay."

Claudia answered simply. She grabbed Kluveen who was not far from her side, and Kluveen also followed along very interestingly.

After the two of them left completely, Roland's fragile expression quickly returned to indifference like turning back time.

"I'll go to the White Tower next, and see if I can take the opportunity to investigate the matter about Edward together..."

Roland murmured.

At this moment, a muffled sound came from behind Roland.

In a very low voice, the wooden warehouse door behind Roland was directly blown open.

... is a shock technique.

This is a witchcraft unique to White Tower wizards. Seeing this witchcraft, Roland immediately realized that An Ruosi and Marken were probably inside.

After all, Macken and An Ruosi disappeared at the same time, and in a small place like Luther Town, it is basically impossible for two White Tower wizards to exist at the same time. Therefore, after Roland saw the wooden door blown open and An Ruosi crawling out from inside, he thought that Macken was also there.

But Roland stood for a long time, but no one saw it.

"An Ruosi, what about Captain Macon?"

Roland frowned and asked.

"Captain Macken? Didn't he hurriedly say that he had left beforehand in the morning?" An Ruosi was injured and her face was blank, "Isn't he with you?"

……Oops.

An ominous premonition appeared in Roland's heart.

"Do you think there's something wrong with Captain Macon? Like lying on his stomach for a long time, or laughing all the time?"

"You said... Captain Macon would laugh?"

An Ruosi almost laughed to himself.

Don't tell me, I couldn't imagine it at first.

Roland murmured.

It looks like it's real this time. At least it's not the two fake ones that Roland killed before~www.wuxiaspot.com~ However, if An Ruosi saw not the fake Macon, but the real one...

"An Ruosi, do you remember the last time you saw Macon?" Roland asked decisively.

Now the Dusk Seed is almost encircling the town. Macon could be killed at any time, and he might have been killed when Roland turned around to look for clues.

Macon was the most important nail for Roland to break into the Dumb Blade army. Once there was a problem with Macken, Roland's plan chain was directly broken.

"Remember, how..."

An Ruosi looked bewildered.

"Take me! Immediately!"

Roland was furious.

There was no time to wait for Claudia and the others to come back.

Let's go and have a look with An Ruosi first--(To be continued.)
