Chapter 30 The Conspiracy of the Dead
Chapter 30 The Conspiracy of the Dead
The black giant snake returned from the passage and came to Tianyi, like a hound carrying a frisbee back in front of his master, waiting for head caress and rewards.
Tianyi stretched out his hand, put his palm upwards, and placed it in front of the giant snake's mouth.
The Count was shocked by the side and thought to himself: Could he be asking the snake to lick his hand...
The giant snake seemed to understand what Tianyi meant. It secreted black liquid from its mouth and dripped on Tianyi's palm. These black liquids were obviously different from the ones secreted by its snake. They were not corrosive, not viscous, and the ink black color was more pure.
After spitting out this mouthful of black juice, the giant snake turned from solid to virtual again and returned to the snake flute in Tianyi's left hand.
Tianyi clenched his fist with his right hand, pinched the little bit of black water, and walked towards the count.
"What are you going to do?" The Count had a bad premonition.
Tianyi put away the snake flute, grabbed the count's chin with his left hand, stretched out his mouth, turned his right fist into his palm, and sent the black liquid from the palm of his hand into the count's mouth.
The count screamed, turned around and lay on the ground, pinched his throat with both hands, and coughed desperately, trying to cough out the liquid he had drunk, but it was obviously futile.
"Don't act like I've taken poison." Tianyi rubbed his right hand on the black robe he was wearing: "This is something that people can't see - power."
The Count didn't feel uncomfortable, but instinctively thought that this thing had to be spit out. It was like seeing someone grabbing a piece of black tar in his hand and forcibly stuffing it into your mouth. No matter how it feels to eat it, he must try to spit it out.
"You fed the poison from the monster's mouth into my mouth! And you said I would get strength!" The count's expression changed: "Does... do you want to turn me into a monster too?!"
"No, you are still human, but you are no longer an ordinary person." Tianyi said: "You have obtained the power from this black snake, which will be integrated into your blood. In the future, your descendants will also pass on this ability from generation to generation. They may be able to inherit a part of it, and may have high-quality people who can use it all. As long as your bloodline is not cut off, the power of the black snake will continue in your family."
"Why do you do this?" the count said, standing up from the ground with excitement. After he settled down, he realized that his legs had recovered their ability to move in an instant.
Tianyi smiled and replied, "Don't forget that our transaction, I said, will ensure your safety, at least not let you be killed due to treasure."
"You are still talking about transactions until now..." The Count showed an hostile expression: "From the beginning, you manipulated everything, your transactions are all based on lies and conspiracies!"
"But I will still finish it." Tianyi continued: "Do you still remember the eyes behind you?"
The Count snorted coldly: "You wouldn't tell me that that was also a play you acted, right?"
Tianyi replied: "Of course not, the owner of that eye comes from an organization called "Isaiah Monks' House". This organization itself has no reason to be enemies of you, but they are commissioned by someone to kill you in a "less obvious" way.
Seven years have passed since Black Friday, and this year your uncle was stolen. It was after he was burned to death that you entered Philip IV’s sight and became the target of public criticism. At the same time, you were also targeted by ‘that person’.”
"Hmph... the 'that person' you mentioned may be yourself, right?" said the count.
Tian Yi tilted his lips and smiled, continuing, "Do you think... Clemour V really died of sudden illness? Just the same year your Uncle Moray was burned to death, just one month after the curse of the man on the stolen rack was still there?"
Bore's expression began to change on his face.
Tianyi said again: "I dare to assert that it will not take too long for Philip IV to die, and it will not seem like a murder. However, he is the king. It may take some time to do this. However, there is no reason to guard against thieves for a thousand days in the world, and he will never escape the disaster."
"Are you trying to say that someone is moving in secret to make my uncle's curse come true? What does that have to do with me? Why did he even kill me? Could it be... for the position of the Grand Commander?" asked the Count.
Tian Yi said: "You are wrong. If you said that this person should be from your Templar, who is qualified to be the leader of the Great Commander but has not been arrested on Black Friday. If there was such a person who wanted to be the leader of the Great Commander, he would have been able to kill you long ago. Why wait for another seven years?"
"Then why did he do these things?" said the Earl.
Tianyi said: "It's simple, he is protecting his own things. Haha...at least he himself thinks that the treasure belongs to him."
"What did you say?" The count looked shocked. He seemed to have guessed who Tianyi was referring to.
"Your uncle, Jacques de Mole, is not dead." Tianyi indeed made this shocking remark.
"Impossible! He obviously..."
"Burned to ashes?" Tian Yixiao said, "Your legs were obviously broken just now, why are you still standing and talking to me at this moment?"
The count's eyes flashed and he repeated dullly: "Impossible...Impossible..."
"Cremon V was still a God-fearing man. He was a complicated person. He exempted Mole from his crimes six years ago, including all other leaders of the Templars who were judged. From the essence of Christianity and deep down in his heart, he had already exempted them. Unfortunately, he did not have the courage to publish these materials when he died. In my opinion, it is probably difficult for these materials to appear before the public." Tianyi said: "The Pope forgives his sins, but Philip IV does not. After all, Cremon V is still the puppet of the King of France. The actual situation is that your uncle was not released, but was constantly tortured, confessed, and repeated in confession, and suffered all the torture, and was eventually pulled onto the stolen frame.
But there was one thing that Philip IV didn't know, that was, the pope betrayed him in secret, and before the stolen, Mole was transferred. It was not Mole himself who was burned to death, but a loyal and fanatical scapegoat. As long as you use some disguise methods of warlocks to pretend to be a half-human, half-ghost half-old man, it is no difficulty, anyway, it will be the same if it is burned.
The performance of that scapegoat was also very exciting, with the curse and curse before his death just right. Everyone believed it, right?”
"So... Uncle is still alive? Where is he now?" asked the count.
"He is naturally hiding in a safe place now, driving the people in the Monks' Academy to avenge himself." Tian Yi replied.
"You said Clemon V helped him, why did he still want..." the Count asked.
Before he could finish asking, Tianyi interrupted, "Nonsense! What kind of person is Molei? He even wants to kill you, do you think he will let the Pope go? Don't forget that the Pope once betrayed him and caused him torture and pain. Is it because the old man saved his life at the last moment, Molei will forgive the other party?
You underestimate the true commander of the Knights Templar too much. Dongfang has a saying - "No poison is not a husband." Mole will not be like you, but rather sacrifice his life for a few loyal subordinates.
Do you think the treasure he gave you is all? So where did the wealth he drove Isaiah's Monk Academy come from? Do you think you are really the best candidate for him to pass the throne? Isn't it because the situation was dangerous at that time, and he only has the blood relative who is closest to him to trust?
Alas... It's so sad, Mr. Earl. Let me tell you what your Uncle Moley is doing now.
He will hide in the dark and let his "curses" come true one by one. When the Pope and Philip IV were both 'dangled' and you died of 'accident', he would magically 'resurrection' like Jesus, come to the bright spot again, and naturally restore the status of the Great Commander, take back everything that "belongs to" him, revive the Knights Templar, and allow this organization to reach an unprecedented, mythical peak in history."
"Impossible... don't lie to me again!" the count shouted, "I won't believe you anymore! Wizard! Every word that is revealed from the tip of your tongue is a note from hell!"
Tianyi said: "Let us make it clear. My purpose has been achieved. The treasures are now sleeping at the core of the ruins. Unless you, as a person involved, cannot return to take out the treasures.
Mr. Earl, you must recognize the situation. When we return to the world above, who is your enemy, who is threatening your life, and who is your ally, try to make you live. Don’t make stupid and wrong decisions because of personal emotional likes and dislikes and a dozen dead people.”
The Count said: "I don't need an allies like you. If I have the chance, I will kill you!"
Tianyi spread his hands open, not angry at all: "Of course, this is your freedom, but my suggestion is..." He said, and suddenly took out a small piece of diamond-shaped crystal from his pocket and threw it to the count: "After we go up, you can use this thing to keep the marks of your Templars in the Colosseum, and draw the symbol I drew at the entrance. Next, I will be responsible for letting some reliable people release the news on the Tao, saying that the secrets on you have been buried forever with you.
After that, we will go our separate ways. You are no longer an ordinary person. In your own words, you are considered half a wizard. Moreover, all the people you have contact with have died. As long as you don’t take the initiative to reveal your identity, no one can trace your whereabouts. You can take the rest of the treasure to travel to other countries to live the life of a rich man.
However, if you try to chase me or go to your Uncle Molai to fall into the trap, I won’t stop me. My transaction also has a boundary. After my three-step plan, you can live a stable and safe life. But if you take the initiative to seek death, I can’t control it. I can’t help you, what will happen to you in the future.”
