Dust of History Chapter 110: Variable (14)


In the center of the square, hundreds of scarred orcs gathered together, surrounded by thousands of swordsmen, priests and magicians. Oufu's strongest point is gone, and it is no longer difficult to wipe out the remaining orcs. But no one dared to move, because the pivot of the whole situation, the most critical point, had already been grasped.

"What I want is the lives of all the orcs here except myself and this girl. Of course, there is also this leaf of the world tree."

"You want to save these orcs?" Lancelot was taken aback.

"Boy, my life is not worth so much. At most, I'm only worth the lives of the two of you." Adela snorted lightly. "We have won now. These orcs are already the elite of Oufu. If we let them go back to heal their injuries and prepare for it, it will mean the continuation of this war, and tens of thousands of soldiers will lose their lives. .I will never agree."

Asa sneered: "Oh, it's so great, as expected of His Majesty the Pope. For the sake of the so-called overall situation, you can even take your own life."

"No, I don't want to. I think I can take a gamble now. With the lives of these tens of thousands of soldiers, and Celeste's victory as the gamble, I am willing to bet that you dare not kill me. Even if I really die It's not unworthy compared to the tens of thousands of soldiers who will die on the wild highlands." Adela said lightly. His face is still that beautiful like a woman's face, but the temperament shown now is completely different from the gentleness of the past. It is the temperament of a real superior, a leader, and a person with a vision overlooking the world. "What about you, kid. Would you rather exchange the lives of tens of thousands of compatriots for what you want?"

"I'm not as great as you, I just want to do what I think is right." Asa said lightly. He doesn't have the temperament of Adela, nor does he have the tone and gaze overlooking the world, but he is still calm and composed.

"You... don't you think you are more important than tens of thousands of lives?" Talis looked at Asa angrily. It's just that no matter how hard she tried, she couldn't bring out the real and pure anger of a warrior in her expression and tone. On the contrary, it is more of a strange helplessness and sadness.

"I don't know. I don't know how to measure these things. Maybe there is no way to measure them. You have your reasons, and I have my reasons. I just know that I want to do this." Asa looked lightly He glanced at Talis.

Adela and Lancelot looked at each other in astonishment, and then both sighed secretly. The intention of the words just now was to make Asa feel moved and guilty. The Pope knew Asa's nature very well. He will never be the kind of person who can ignore human life and do whatever it takes. As long as his mood is impetuous and contradictory because of what he said just now, once there is a flaw, Lanster will take action immediately.

But he didn't strike back with sarcasm or justify his actions. He no longer needs to seek a standard to measure himself, just like a mountain, no matter what direction the wind and rain are. There is no support at all, and there is no weakness. The most important factor of belief is not whether it meets the standard of one thought, but whether it can come from the real heart.

"It doesn't matter if you think you're worth it or not, as long as Lord Lancelot thinks it's worth it." Asa looked at Lancelot. "How? I know you will think so."

Lancelot sighed for a long time, and said: "Your Majesty, forget it. It doesn't matter if these hundreds of orcs are released. Gru is dead, and Sedros can't support himself alone... Glorious Castle is still alive. I need you, and the thousands of believers on this continent also need a pope who can really think about them. I am not willing to take risks."

"What are you talking about?" Asa was taken aback, but it was at this moment that his face fluctuated. "Didn't Sedros be assassinated by someone you sent?"

Although this surprise did not bring about a big flaw, it was still a flaw. Logically enough Lancelot made a move. But he didn't make a move. Because both he and the pope were more surprised than Asa.

"What? Sedros is dead?"

Not only the three of them stared at each other in astonishment, but the surrounding priests and Talis were also full of surprise. Although they had already planned and imagined capturing, assassinating, and burning the old man, the biggest leader of the hostile forces, at the stake, when they heard the news at this time, they were so surprised that they couldn't even feel the joy they should have had. .

"Someone is playing tricks." A cold light flashed in Adela's eyes. His life is still hanging in Asa's hands, even if he can't raise his hands or throw his feet. But his own temperament and aura did not hinder him in the slightest. "The one who can do this kind of shit, could it be..."

"I think we need to be clear about this matter. It just so happens that there is a clue..." Lancelot suddenly dragged Ai Yimei, and a burst of white magic flashed over her body, and she woke up slowly.

"Brother Asa." After waking up, Ai Yimei saw Asa first, and cried out in extreme surprise. Then I found that the surrounding situation was a little hesitant.

"Little sister, it seems that you have some agreement with Bishop Inham, right? Please tell us the whole story." Lancelot grabbed her arm and said.

Ai Yimei did not speak. Just looking at Asa, and the Pope in his hand. Asa nodded and said, "Tell me~IndoMTL.com~I want to know too. Did you have any agreement with that guy?"

Ai Yimei hesitated for a while, and then pointed to Adela and said: "Not only with that guy named Inham, but also with him. I know that the two of them are necromancers, so I and They traded and used the leaf of the world to let them find a way to release you."

"Necromancer?" All the great priests around screamed. Adela's face darkened. Although he is actually the Pope, this sentence will definitely cause him trouble in the future.

Asa's surprise was no less than that of several great priests. He also asked in surprise: "So you got the leaf of the world tree from the elves? How did you get it?"

"It was also a necromancer who helped me get it, but he seemed to be helping me. He asked me to bring it here for them to let them let you go, and this dagger..." Ai Yimei said from her arms He took out the oddly shaped dagger.

"Nick Dagger?" "Agrenel?" Lancelot and Adela fired at the same time. They already roughly understood what was going on.

"It turns out that all of this is because of you...Oufu actually settled the blame on us. They should kill you and then go to Agrinel to settle the score..."
