Chapter 1347 The Devil’s Commission
Shad still held the cross with his straight arms:
"I know what you are, but I am not afraid of you. Evil devil, go to the dark corner and stay. I bet that more and more ring warlocks from the three major academies and the Five Gods Church will fight in recent weeks. Gather in this city, even if you have your own plans,
"How arrogant, how arrogant."
That smooth tone praised Shade:
"But you are right, I did not appear in front of you this time to kill you or do anything to you."
"You want to stop me from entering this manor? Is there really any secret hidden here?"
"No, no, young sir, I am not trying to prevent you from entering this manor. On the contrary, since Stone Oxenfurt and Sea Oxenfurt can entrust you with it, why can't I?"
It asked with a smile, but that smile was really terrifying. Moreover, this smile somehow reminded Shade of demonologist Mr. Sean Asmon.
"Entrust?"
Xia De snorted, and the heavy snow could not hide the sarcastic expression on his face:
"I thought you had been eavesdropping from the beginning. You should know what I said: one of the common sense of ring magicians is that you can't make deals with any demons. I don't even want to make deals with those you have corrupted. The undead trade, let alone you."
The devil Goethe still has a smooth smile:
"No, I don't want to make a deal with you, but I want to entrust you to do things, just like Stone Oxenfurt and Sea Oxenfurt. I don't ask you to sign any contract, nor do I want to ask you to sign any contract. You are not required to complete it, but if you really succeed, I can give you something... interesting."
Xia De frowned slightly:
"You think I'm a greedy guy?"
The howling wind took away his voice.
"Isn't it? I saw the duel between you and Oxenfurt under the dead tree. You have the power of sin, arrogant man."
The devil's voice was very soft, but Shade heard it clearly.
"The task I gave you does not conflict with the other two tasks you are doing now. In fact, you can complete them all at the same time and get everything you want."
Its eyes looked at the cross that was motionless in the wind and snow, and its voice was quite soft:
"Besides, aren't you afraid of me? You are well prepared."
"Nonsense, if I'm really not afraid of you, why do you think I keep holding this up even if my hands are a little sore?"
Xia De asked, frowning slightly as if thinking, then squinting his eyes and asked:
"I want to know first, what exactly are you going to entrust me with?"
"It's simple, very simple for you. Enter the manor, drive out some interlopers, find an item, and craft a weapon."
The devil looked at Shade:
"You should know the history of Watson Manor. The people in this manor offended me at that time, so I gave them some small lessons. And those ordinary people, it is really surprising that they actually found They bought a great thing to use against me, but unfortunately, it was of no use to me, and they didn’t know how to use that treasure.”
Shad looked at the manor in the snow from the corner of his eye:
"I want to enter the manor and this is the one I find?"
"Yes."
"Who is the intruder in the manor?"
"You will know in a moment that they are a group of guys who are ungrateful, timid but as dirty as rats. They also want to find that item, but you don't have to worry, they don't have the ability, and it's even possible They will run out without you, but I appreciate you, you can do it, right?"
Its eyes narrowed.
"What does it mean to use that item to create a weapon?"
"Although the power of that item has no effect on me, it works on others. Therefore, it can be used to teach Stone Oxenfurt a lesson."
The devil said with a smile, his mouth raised at an unusual angle?} Person:
"I know all the little tricks he made, and I also know what he entrusted you to do. According to my contract with him, I cannot punish him without reason, but this does not mean that I cannot let him Someone else does it."
"Typical devil's contract trap."
"No, my friend, this is not a trap, it's just that he didn't realize it. Go find the item in the manor that the Watson family once tried to protect themselves, and then turn it into a weapon, using Teach Oxenfurt a lesson. Even if he has the immortality I gave him, the weapon can make him suffer... or even kill him."
Shad still held the cross flat, which caused a layer of snowflakes to accumulate on the sleeve of his right arm:
"Aren't you worried that I will use the weapon made from that item to defeat you or even expel you?"
"Oxenfurt" pursed his lips and made a "tsk, tsk" sound:
"How arrogant, very arrogant. If you want to do this, I suggest you do it after I pay you the reward."
"Are you so sure that I want to accept your commission?"
Xia De asked again.
"Of course you will accept it. After all, it won't do you any harm, right? Besides, I told you these things, even without my commission, wouldn't you enter the manor and find the item first? To build weapons?"
The devil's voice is like the whisper of tarsal bones, light, smooth, but very reasonable:
"All you have to decide is whether to teach Oxenfurt a lesson."
At this point, it made an exaggerated expression of realization:
"I almost forgot, you accepted the commission from Hai Oxenfurt to pierce Oxenfurt's chest with a sharp sword and kill him. You see, I even found a weapon for you. As for Whether you can kill him or not is up to you."
"Have I fallen into your trap since the first time I met Oxenfurt?"
Xia De asked, the devil still smiled:
"Always winning makes people arrogant. Oxenfurt is like this, and so are you. But fortunately, I am not very interested in you. Your aura is too mixed. Experience tells me Me, that often means big trouble."
It stared at Shade:
"So it seems that you have no reason not to accept my commission. After all, this is what you want to do."
"What can you give me?"
Shad did not refuse this time. He needed to lure out the demon again so that Dr. Schneider could take action easily, so he accepted the commission and waited until the other party showed up to pay him, which would be the best chance to take action.
Besides, accepting the commission will also make the ancient evil devil think that Shade has fallen into his control, which can effectively make the other party relax their vigilance.
"I have many treasures that are good for mortals - eternal flames, relics that increase lifespan, alchemical items that turn stone into gold, and bottles of wine that never run out. I can even give them to you if you want. You have a treasure book that records the knowledge of demons. I know that even though it is dangerous, it is still very attractive to ring magicians... To complete my commission, you can choose any one of the five items.
Xia De deliberately waited for two seconds before asking:
"Besides these, may I make a request of my own? I want to know about another ancient evil."
"Oh, it seems your adventure is more exciting than I thought. What do you want to know?"
"Do you know, [Desire]?"
The name of the beautiful "Mermaid" was spoken by Shade in the wind and snow. In an instant, it seemed that even the surrounding wind and snow were trembling. For the first time since the demon's appearance, the smile disappeared from its face, but then reappeared and clapped just as it had just appeared:
"That's it. It turns out that your great sin was inspired by her. Yes, that's it."
It nodded to Shade:
"Then with this information, the reward is to choose one of the six. After you complete my commission, you can naturally choose what you want."
"But how can I find you again?"
Shade asked, if the other party can directly tell where it is hiding at this time, Shade will call Dr. Schneider tonight.
"When you complete my mission, I will go find you. I know the devil may have a bad reputation, but don't we always do what we promised?"
Xia De nodded slightly:
"Okay, I will enter the manor now to see who the intruder is inside."
Although the so-called commission from the other party seems simple, it is definitely related to the conspiracy against the "Guardians". Shade didn't believe that the other party didn't know that he had the power of the earth. This is a tacit thing, it just depends on whose method is better in the end.
"No, no, no, there is one more thing that has not been completed."
The devil shook his head at Shade:
"Although you agreed to the commission, what if you leave the city or inform the Zhengshen Church about this? Let me give you a mark, which is an ancient devil's engraved mark. This is even It can increase your probability of obtaining the power of blasphemy and whispers, and enhance your mortal sin power."
"I don't want any mark."
Before Shade finished speaking, a strange feeling suddenly came to his mind. In his eyes, the snowflakes blowing diagonally towards his cheeks were almost completely still, and "Ston Oxenfurt" seemed to be in slow motion. She walked towards him step by step, walking around in a large circle to avoid the blasphemous cross he was holding, and then stretched out her burnt-yellow hands in an attempt to grab his face.
[The power of time, it almost stops time. 】
"Since it stopped time, why did I almost forget it? Because I know the secret of time and understand the bridge that spans the five previous eras and the current era, I can be selectively immune to the power of time."
Thinking in his mind, while the snowflakes were almost still and the devil slowly walked towards him with an oily smile, Shade stared into his black eyes, turned on the spot at a normal speed, and aimed the silver cross in his hand again The devil.
Because of the other party's slow motion, Shade could clearly see how the smile on the devil's face stiffened and disappeared.
