Bing Zhixie thought to herself if she could try other methods to get him to hand over Long Ling without using violence, so that would be the best, so he said: "Stop talking, I'll carry you to the room first."
.”
After randomly choosing a room to stay in, Bing Zhixie and Alice carried him to the bed together.
Rost said: "Alice, do your uncle a favor and go to the church to call the bishop?"
"Oh, okay." Alice ran out of the house and looked for a direction.
Bing Zhixie said: "You know my purpose very well, so I won't say any more nonsense. I must have Long Ling, and I'll say the ugly things first. If you don't give me Long Ling, I will kill him."
Alice, I believe you should know that I can do it."
Rost frowned slightly, then suddenly showed his face and said: "You don't have to threaten me with such words. In fact, I originally planned to give Long Ling to you."
"Oh! This surprises me."
Rost said: "Is it unexpected? There is no need to be surprised. I... I swore to my wife and the goddess that whoever avenges me, I will consider giving Long Ling to him. You remember the mysterious gift I mentioned in my letter
?"
Bing Zhixie nodded.
Rost said: "If I thought I should give it, the gift would be Long Ling, but your threat still worked. I have no children, so I can't bear the death of Alice like my daughter."
Bing Zhixie didn't believe it: "Long Ling... do you know what that is? Why would you give it to a stranger so easily? Moreover, what right do you have to give Long Ling to others? This is
It’s something from the Demon Moon Empire!”
Rost said: "Long Ling, no one knows what that is better than me. It is something that everyone in the world dreams of."
"Then why did you give it away?"
"Because..." Rost fell silent for a while and then said: "Because I hate it. If it weren't for it, my wife would not have been raped by that poisonous scorpion like a slave for seven or eight years, and in the end she was cruel to him.
of killing.”
Bing Zhixie listened quietly, and it turned out that there was another story in it.
Rost said: "I have this disease a long time ago. Because of my weakness, I can't go on long journeys, let alone go to dangerous places. But my family has been doing archeology and research on dragons for generations, and when I can't do it myself, I have to
Please let my wife take my place. That time I learned that there were ancient ruins at the bottom of the Dragon Falls in the Dattam Grand Canyon, so I asked my wife Angel to help me investigate..."
He coughed, took out a handkerchief to wipe away the blood and said: "But once I left, I never came back. I thought Angel was in trouble, so I held on to my last glimmer of hope and asked people in the church to help me find her.
Angel, I hope she is still alive. But after searching for it, there has been no news for several years. Just when I was desperate, a believer suddenly got news in the tavern that my wife was in the Dattam Grand Canyon and was used as a slave by a poisonous scorpion.
Just as insulted, she was later killed while escaping with the congregants who came to rescue her."
Bing Zhixie already understood in his heart.
"When I heard the bad news, it was... simply..." Rost's eyes filled with tears and he was choked up and could not speak: "I took advantage of Alice's tenth birthday to go to the palace to ask my sister for help.
She used the power of the empire to search out the poisonous scorpions, but she did not agree. Later, I wrote and begged many times, but she still refused. When An Jieer and I got married, she strongly opposed it, saying it was harmful.
In order to lose the reputation of the royal family and the family, I was forced to change my name and hide in Anmosidu. Later, the church people went to Dattamu Canyon several times to search for it, but the poisonous scorpion was too cunning and cruel, and the church people failed to find it.
Return. So I had no choice but to ask the church members to continue to help me search, and at the same time, I posted bounty tasks in various guilds, and repeatedly increased the reward amount, and finally..."
"It turns out that this is the reason why he changed his name." Bingzhi said heartily: "The politics of the empire are sometimes intolerant of humanity."
Rost sighed: "This dragon zero or whatever, it's of no use to me at all, and it was in vain that my wife died for it. So I really thank you. It's great that I can avenge myself.
My long-cherished wish has been fulfilled, and Angel's spirit in heaven can also be comforted."
Bing Zhixie said: "But Long Ling is a thing of the empire. They put things here with you without any precautions, right? How can you easily take them out to others?"
Rost smiled: "Oh, what the hell is this thing from the empire? This dragon zero belongs to my Yihubei family. Back then, countries all over the world started looking for dragon zero. This piece of dragon zero was found by my Yihubei family. Originally
It is the property of my Yihubeti family. It was not until my father and my generation unlocked the secret of this dragon zero that the seventeenth generation married my sister in order to obtain the dragon zero more openly."
Bing Zhixie nodded: "So that's it. Alice is a member of the royal family, so Long Ling naturally belongs to the Otillet royal family."
"That's right, most of the marriages in the royal family are due to... political means. The reason why the Seventeenth Emperor was able to take the throne was because he married my sister, because in this way the empire clearly and legitimately obtained Long Ling's power." Rost.
He was already out of breath as he spoke: "The reason why Long Ling was... put here with me is just to find out all its secrets. Hum, for the Seventeenth Life, everything is between myself and the empire.
Profit comes first. Although he is a good monarch, he is not a good husband or a good father."
Bingzhixie said: "As a noble, you are in the center of the whirlpool of imperial politics. You should be happy to have such an emperor."
Rost shook his head: "I'm not interested in power, I just want to do what I want to do."
Alice found the church and saw the scene inside the church from the side door. She was startled and her face suddenly turned red: "Nasty uncle, what are you asking me to do?"
Seeing those naked men and women, Alice didn't know which one was the bishop, so she shouted at the top of her voice: "Your Majesty Bishop, Your Majesty Bishop, who are you?"
The bishop turned back to look at the little girl: "Who are you?"
Alice covered her eyes and said, "My uncle Rost is looking for you, you... you come with me." After that, she quickly left here.
The bishop was blessing the naked believers when he realized that Rost had disappeared.
Gerardo, the three of them and the guards were looking for Rost in the courtyard and the residential area. They didn't see Rost in the church and panicked, fearing that he was in danger. While they were looking, Gerardo happened to see Ai Ai.
Liz ran past the corridor. She was surprised and was about to call her when she saw the bishop hurriedly getting dressed and following behind.
When they arrived at Rost's room, Alice ran into the room with a flushed face. She looked shy and wanted to speak but didn't know what to say. It took her a long time to complain and said: "Uncle!"
Rost smiled: "Why are you so embarrassed? Anyway, you will be like them in the future."
Bing Zhixie almost laughed out loud.
The bishop also came in: "Are you looking for me?" He saw Bing Zhixie again: "Why are you here?"
Bing Zhixie said nothing.
Rost said: "He is the one who avenges my wife, the priest Angel."
"Oh!" The bishop looked at the child in surprise. He didn't expect that he could kill a villain like Poisonous Scorpion at such a young age: "Great, this matter is finally over, and your wish has been completely fulfilled.
Already."
Ross nodded: "Yes, I have no regrets." Then he said to Bing Zhixie: "However, I can give you Long Ling, but you must agree to one condition."
"Okay, I promise you."
Rost said: "Did you agree without asking any conditions? It seems that you are really determined to get Long Ling."
"Yes, for it, I will do anything." Bing Zhixie stared at him coldly, her expression so determined that it could not be changed.
Rost turned to look at Alice and said: "I know Alice, she is innocent, longing for herself, and she is happiest every time I take her hunting. She is actually a happy little bird,
She is a happy bird, she wants to follow you, and I want you to take good care of her."
"No problem, I will definitely take good care of her." Bing Zhixie answered without any hesitation.
"No!" The shout came from outside the door. Bing Zhixie turned around and saw that it was Gerardo and the others.
Alice hid behind Bing Zhixie in fear, she didn't want to be taken away.
Herado said: "Lord Count Rost, how can you hand over such an important thing to such a villain who is detrimental to the empire? You know, he is suspected of being involved in the death of the great wizard Chen Wasileb.
He has also done many things that are detrimental to the empire. Now he is kidnapping the princess. How can you hand over Long Ling to such a person? The empire will not agree."
Alice hid behind Bing Zhixie and shouted: "I was not kidnapped, you are the one kidnapping me!"
The bishop was startled and looked at Bing Zhixie: "So he is the guy wanted for 10 million gold coins!"
Rost said: "Long Ling is mine. I can give it to whomever I want. You have no right to interfere. What about the empire? It has nothing to do with me. Even if it does, it is only with my sister, your queen. I
...Why do you want to protect Long Ling for the empire?”
Shwek said: "But you are the count of the empire."
"Huh, really?" Rost snorted coldly: "Then from now on, I will quit this count."
Shwek's face changed: "My lord, if you do this, you will be executed by the laws of the empire."
Rost was silent for a while: "Come on then, death is just the beginning of another new life for me."
"The goddess is with you," the bishop recited.
Regardless of his identity, Ledecche yelled: "You old guy, I'm the same size as you. Stop talking nonsense and just arrest this kid."
Having said that, none of the three people moved. They couldn't guarantee that they could capture Bing Zhixie alive, so the clever guards behind him had quietly called for reinforcements.
At this moment, a voice suddenly came: "The government people, the princess and the wanted criminals are all here. That's great. It saves me having to deliver the goods after arresting people."
Everyone's expressions changed and they looked outside the door. At some point, behind Gerardo and the others, there was a man in dark green armor and wearing a terrifying metal mask.
Bing Zhixie also stared at this person, and even he didn't notice when this guy arrived.
