Chapter 72
The dragon breathed, and as long as he gave Zarrik a chance, he could spray out in one breath, all he could do was to make the person spurt only bones.
But if Bruto is given a chance, he can even spit out a bone, which is the gap between the first and second levels.
Bruto blew away the remaining ashes on the ground and picked up the divine bloodstone the size of a thumb. This is the only remaining remains of Zarik in this world...
Should we give the Count a reasonable explanation?
Bruto smiled and swallowed Zarik's bloodstone.
Without any explanation, Zarik disappeared, the Count would be angry, and nothing would change after being angry.
He didn't cherish Zarik so much. He had never cherished anyone. He needed a believer of Ladong to do things for him. The second-level believer was better than the first-level. As long as he was useful, what would it matter if he was missing one Zarik?
The only thing that cannot be explained clearly is her eyes. Portia said that this matter cannot involve her in any case.
Bruto put on the blindfold again and lay quietly on the bed. Just like before, he could still see everything in the room through this blindfold.
It doesn’t matter whether you have eyes or not, as long as you use it yourself, it’s enough.
The next day at dawn, the Count returned to the valley and asked Worm some questions, but Worm used a limited truth to pass by.
After Worm left, the Count took a nap for a while. At noon, he asked Zarik to prepare for taking the Divine Bloodstone, but Zarik could not be found in the castle.
It was not until now that the Count realized that something happened in the valley last night. No one knew where Zarik was going. Although many people heard the quarrel between Zarik and the Leo, no one was willing to mention it, and no one was willing to offend the powerful Sphinx for a disgusting Zarik.
From being furious to returning to peace, the count only took one afternoon to know who the murderer was, and it was naturally Bruto who wanted to kill Zarik the most.
Regardless of the specific process, one thing is certain that Zarik died of his stupidity. The strong will choose to endure when the situation is unfavorable, while the stupid will understand the strong's forbearance as cowardice and then bully.
The Count has always been tolerating this bullying. He believes that Bruto has lost his value and that Zarik also has the capital to become a strong man.
It seems that he made a serious mistake that Bruto was able to kill Zarik quietly, proving that his strength was still strong.
Will he have resentment towards himself? There is no doubt about this.
Just kill him and let him and his resentment disappear?
Or keep him and let him continue to serve himself with resentment?
This is a difficult choice, killing him is the easiest way, but if you want to kill everyone who resents you, there may not be only one person left in the valley.
Late at night, the count called Bruto into the room. He did not ask about Zarik, but just wanted to invite Bruto to have a drink.
Bruto, who was blindfolded, chatted with the Count while tasting wine.
He trimmed his hair and beard and turned back to the mature and elegant handsome man.
Seeing him fumble on the pattern on the wine glass, watching him drink all the wine in the glass, gently put down the wine glass, then pressed his hand on his chest, leaned over to salute, and calmly retreated to the door. The count was sure that he had recovered his vision and had also recovered his full-level strength.
"Forget the pain of the past and return to the embrace of the gods. I will help you find the golden apple and get the name of God." The Count smiled.
Bruto saluted again: "Thank you for your tolerance. I am willing to serve you for the rest of my life, loyal and unswervingly until death."
Before the count could activate the Hundred Eyes Technique, Bruto disappeared from sight.
In fact, there is no need to verify the authenticity of this sentence. Even if the loyalty in words is true, it is meaningless.
...
Worm used spider silk to pass four ancient books to Manda. Manda lay on the table, staring with her blood-red eyes, and pointed at Worm, "If one day I learned the spell of inserting someone else's nostrils, you will definitely be the first victim."
"You begged me to help you!" Worm pounded the table, "It's time to fulfill your promise, and I'll take Toka back tomorrow!"
"I can't believe it if you say that it's not your son. He has only been away for a few days!" Manda rubbed his forehead in severe pain and lay on the bed. "Have those ten teenagers sent to the valley?"
"Sent, the Earl said they have a good talent."
"The count didn't say anything else?"
"No," Worm shook his head, "Zarick disappeared, and the count didn't seem to care."
Manda was stunned and said silently for a moment: "Did Bruto do it?"
Worm sneered: "Who knows, he deserves his sin anyway."
Manda murmured, "Yes, sin deserves, and pigs should not bare their teeth at tigers."
Worm frowned: "What is a tiger? Is the red giant tiger in the northern part of the mainland?"
"Absolutely, they are all beasts," Manda closed her eyes and said, "Go to the brewing bar, I want to sleep for a while."
"Don't cheat, take Toka back quickly. He can do a lot of things for you, and you don't have to work so hard."
"Isn't there any higher deacon?"
"How long do you think he can stand it?" Warm stood up and said, "He's going crazy, it's better to let him leave here as soon as possible."
Leo Frank is indeed going crazy. His temper is getting more and more irritable. He broke the can twice and almost attacked a guest. Late at night, when he saw Manda appear, Leo threw the can aside and walked to Manda and said, "I have shown enough sincerity and should at least get a little reward."
"I don't know what the reward you want is, but I believe the Lord can see everything you do, have a good rest, and the Lord will protect you."
Leo didn't know how to describe his mood at this moment. Manda just mentioned the Lord, and he must not speak slander under the Lord's gaze.
"I will not give up. I will never leave until I find his body! I can continue to entertain guests for you!"
"Let's rest, Lord Deacon, I can only entertain some guests."
Some guests are indeed only available to Manda. The business in the tavern is very good and can earn more than 40 silver coins every day.
But someone's business is better than the tavern's business.
Joel Morace, the young man who started the gambling game, according to Manda's rough calculations, he has earned at least five gold coins in the past three nights.
His bet opened again. Seeing his dice shaking, Manda whispered: "All the Lord."
Zhengjiang - a person who makes a living by gambling.
There are not many people taking the bait today, many customers have suffered losses before, and many new customers are waiting and watching.
Soon, the familiar businessman appeared again: "I was not lucky yesterday, so I'll try it again today."
He shook the dice cup, won three games in a row, and earned 6 copper coins from the young man.
It seems that the young man's gambling skills are not very clever, and the bets are not big. The guests who were still waiting and watching gathered around.
Manda pursed her lips and said, "Take a general."
Taxi - the person who leads the fish to the bait.
As more and more people entered the game, the beautiful girl who had changed into clothes spoke: "Two copper coins are too boring, let's raise the bet."
"Feng Zheng, this is still the eighth general."
Feng Jiang - Use special means to confuse the fat sheep into a trap.
Perhaps there are other names in this era, but I am extremely familiar with this type of character Manda. As long as there are more than two such people, all the guests who enter the game will be killed.
