Throne of Magical Arcana

In the muddy swamps, all kinds of strange plants grow in a mess. Some of them look like ordinary trees. The canopy blocks the sunlight, but the roots are like humans. They have two legs covered with bloody vines, and they drill into the mud. I don't know where to go, there are many similar creatures, each of which adds countless mystery and horror to the swamp.

Vicente was hiding behind a stone that was half a person tall. The mud under his feet had a rare dry and firm area. The nose was filled with a foul odor.

At this time, he was sitting on the ground daringly and daringly, looking at the front with trembling eyes. On top of the black sludge, a python with a bucket was thick, wandering towards him, his eyes were like candlesticks With an unusual green light, all the swamp creatures in the surroundings are far away from the terrifying breath.

He has been dealing with corpses all the year round, and recently Vicente, who has begun to dissect, is not timid, but his reason is difficult to resist the deterrent breath emitted by this extraordinary python. This is an instinctive reaction of the body. Even ordinary people who are not knight servants and magic apprentices are simply unable to get rid of it.

His legs were sluggish, his body was shaking, his teeth creaked, and Vicente wanted to turn around and run away, but he didn't even have the strength to stand up, only to watch the python close to himself a little bit.

In the past, he has never been in the depths of the swamp for so long, often following a familiar path, carefully looking for special plants nearby, and then returning immediately, and this time, he has lived here for five days, picking along the road The fruit is almost finished, so naturally, we also encountered one of the scary creatures deep in the swamp.

The black python approached Vicente leisurely, as if preparing to enjoy today's lunch. Gradually, the distance became shorter and shorter. Its strange skin covered with patterns and scales, the smell of the mouth, was deeply imprinted in Victoria. Center of mind.

Just when Vicente was desperate, the front part of the black python suddenly stood upright, the crimson tongue stretched out with a circle of green streamer, and a pair of giant eyes stared at the muddy ground behind the stone.

After a few minutes, the black python turned around and fled in haste!

Vicente looked at this scene in disbelief, and this terrifying python just fled like this?I haven't done anything yet!

After staying for a long time, Vicente's eyes fell into the mud behind the stone, and an idea burst into his mind: "Is the magic book and the pale palm I buried scared the monster? But they are still there In the mud! "

Gradually, he had a conjecture that perhaps the black python was much stronger than his senses and touched the "breath of death."

Perhaps, in its eyes, the stone side has become the underworld or hell!

After Vicente recovered, he tried hard to resist the urge to dig out the magic book and walked out of the swamp along the secret path he found.

Half a day later, he quietly hid to the edge of the swamp, but there was no familiar mark on the trees.

"Is it so troublesome that the baron can't guarantee it?" Vicente thought with frustration. After all, he was caught and blasphemed before the result. It was a standard evil behavior, even if it was not a magician, it would be tied up. Fire frame.

He sighed and decided to wait another five days, so he returned to the swamp and collected food along the way.

…………

"What? Shirley is dead?" Baron Brunzel looked at the night watchman in front of him, as if he was still dreaming.

This night watchman has two huge eyes, wide forehead, and mouth full of canine teeth. When he is not talking, he gives a honest and honest impression. Once he speaks, the canine teeth are exposed, and it is very terrible, so, see this look , Baron Brunzer is a nightmare.

"Mad Dog" drew a cross on her chest: "Yes, she died under divine magic in order to keep the evil magician's secret."

"You are crazy, crazy! Actually tortured her!" The baroness screamed first.

Baron Brunzel maintained his final reason, staring at the vigil and said: "That is to say, Shirley actually said nothing, that is to say, she was a pure believer before death, you have no evidence! "

The anger in his chest is burning, even if he is killed in front of the gate of Cooks, he must let the Grand Duke and all the nobles confirm this problem. The night watchmen of the church are crazy, and they must be curbed!

"Crazy Dog" once again drew a cross: "The Lord tells us that only the power of the devil can make her stand the torture, confess nothing, and only the power of the devil can make her die before confessing, and keep the secret , So your daughter is undoubtedly tempted by the devil to fall into an affair with the magician. "

"Crazy, really crazy ..." Hearing the strong words, Baron Brunzer became more and more unreal in the world, so that he did not growl, refute, or attack.

"Crazy Dog" hey laughed: "Based on this, we have reason to suspect that you colluded with the magician. You agree that Shirley married Vicente. This evil magician is proof. Please return to the referee with us. This is the Lord. The will is the order of the bishops. "

"What?" Baron Brunsell and his wife only felt like the sky was falling. The bad news of the only daughter's tragic death had to be digested in the future, and she himself met a crazy night watchman.

The night watchman swarmed up and grabbed the baron and the baroness.

"No, you let go, we are nobles!"

"We are nobles!"

…………

In a villa in the city, Andrew and his two companions listened dumbfoundedly at the report.

"How is it possible? How could Shirley die?"

"They didn't have any evidence, just caught the baronets and couples?"

"In the future, they will do the same to us in the future ..."

The trio's faces were extremely pale, and their bodies shivered involuntarily. The "false accusation" of Vicente by others and others seemed to lead a monster that was more terrifying than the devil.

…………

"Huh, their bones are not as hard as their daughter's." The interrogator came out with a chilling smile.

"Good results?" "Mad Dog" asked urgently.

The interrogator nodded: "Several years ago, when the Battle of Aalto stalemate, they secretly contacted a magician, but as the death lord was killed by the pope's crown, they broke this connection.

"Very well, this shows that our methods of doing things against evil are very useful, and dug out the hidden depraved baronets." "Crazy Dog" is very proud of his means of arresting people and then torture to find evidence. He believes that he waits for the vigil People have the most religious beliefs, and they can directly identify fallen people without external evidence. Therefore, this style of doing things is most suitable for themselves and others. Of course, it is easy to make credit.

The interrogator chuckled: "I have long seen the swaying nobles as unpleasant."

"Hang their daughter's body on the torture rack for a week to see if it can lead to Vicente." "Crazy Dog" grinned, "As for them, I think the executioner's hand can't wait."

…………

Andrew paced back and forth anxiously in the hall, waiting for news from Cooks. His two companions sat on the sofa, completely unacceptable to such a situation.

"Master, there is news from Cooks to keep the nobles restrained." The butler came in breathlessly.

Andrew stopped at once and collapsed weakly on the sofa: "I know, I know ..."

It may not have been clear before, but when the night watchman seized the baron and his wife, they were frightened to find that even if all the nobles united, they could not compete with the clergy and night watchman of the church!

Boom boom, the knock on the door suddenly sounded.

"Who?" The butler asked in consternation.

"I'll get my reward." "Mad Dog" appeared at the door.

Andrew and others jumped in shock: "You?"

"Why? Want to pay the bill?" "Mad Dog" smiled kindly.

"No, no, this is the final payment." Andrew took out a purse full of Quintal.

"Mad Dog" tossed his money bag and weighed it: "Yes, sincere."

Then he said with a smile: "Thank you so much for this matter, Mr. Andrew, you made us understand our strength."

When he had finished speaking, he turned and walked away. Andrew stayed petrified and stood on the spot. The open door blew through the breeze and made Andrew's body and mind cool.

…………

A few days later, Vicente dived out of the swamp again and still found no mark.

"Did there be any accident?" He became more and more worried, and decided to quietly go back and take a look.

Taking advantage of the night, he sneaked back to the village where he was. Just when he was planning to "kidnapp" a child for careful inquiry, he suddenly heard two peasants talking.

"Hey, Miss Shirley is so pitiful, I don't believe that she was lured by the devil ..." Under the church's propaganda, even the peasant woman knew how to use the word "temptation to degenerate".

"Yeah, Miss Shirley is so gentle and kind, just like an angel. It was all the damn Vicente who cheated on her, or she would not die in the tribunal, and was tied to the torture rack ..." In addition A peasant woman agreed.

Dead, dead, Shirley is dead?

The news was like a sledgehammer hitting Vicente's brain, making him dizzy and almost falling out of his hiding place.

The conversation between the peasants and women made him understand the course of the event. A face became very pale, his eyes had no expression, he dangled, and he walked back to the swamp without knowing there were other things outside him.

Perhaps it was the blessing of the goddess of luck, he actually walked back to the depths of the swamp alive.

"No!" After a long time, there was a scream of heartbreak in the swamp, which was more sad and desolate than the lone wolf Xiaoyue.

Vicente's face was full of tears, and his eyes showed the ultimate spark of hatred. He lay on the ground, his hands dug hard into the dirt, and blood oozed out of his nails, stained red.

A few minutes later, two black covert books and a pale palm appeared in Vicente's hands.

The remaining expression on his face had faded, leaving only numbness, despair and resentment.

…………

"Don't come?" "Mad Dog" secretly looked at the body on the torture rack.

"The Beast Trainer" smiled and said: "This simple trap is easy to see through, and the magicians are very cunning."

"Poor girl, she values ​​emotion so much." "Crazy Dog" spread her hand.

The torture rack is only used to "purify" living people, so no corpses are burned.

Many citizens around watched and spurned the evil man who collaborated with the devil and the magician. Only a few people who knew Shirley secretly sighed, but they dared not defend her.

In the crowd, a man with a dark complexion looked at Shirley's body with compassion, sympathy, and self-blame, then gritted his teeth, turned around, and walked toward the gate without looking back.

As he walked out of the city gate, he suddenly removed the cross worn on his chest and held it tightly with his right hand, so that the tip pierced the palm of his hand, and the blood stained the surface.

He calmly inserted the cross on the wall beside the city gate, and then walked slowly and slowly towards the dim distance.

I will return!

I will come back to resurrect you!

I will return with death and destruction!
