72. Back to the desert island (2)
After Quentin was designated as a genius by the Master of the Mage, the Eastern Lord gave Quentin's father the surname Brown and the rank of viscount. He also recruited twenty knights from the east. Even he himself advanced to become a knight because of the secret medicine.
Although such strength is still not worth mentioning, after all, with the status of a noble, the duke cannot sit idly by.
"Vissue Brown, I think there must be some misunderstandings in this. Why don't we talk about it later?" The Duke stood up and smoothed out.
The banquet ended unhappily, and everyone left with their own grief or hatred. Adam and his men came to the chamber together at the invitation of the Duke.
During this period, Brown kept staring at Adam, and the hatred in his eyes became more and more intense. As soon as he entered the chamber, Brown said, "Your Excellency, I need an explanation."
Adam's explanation is short: "He attacked me and was killed by me."
Not only Brown was stunned, but even the Duke was shocked. This sentence was more like a declaration of war than an explanation.
Brown's forehead and arms burst into blue veins and asked William and the others, "You all know about this?"
William nodded, not knowing how to appease Quentin's father, and he had never thought about making Adam admit his mistake and compensate him.
"Okay, okay, okay!" Brown laughed angrily, and after saying three words, rushed straight out of the chamber.
The Duke looked at Adam with a wry smile: "Young man, I hope you can understand the current mood of a father who has lost his child." As a mage apprentice, the Duke deeply understood the power of magic. He had no doubt that Adam could easily kill Brown, so he could only give him a little advice.
Adam didn't take this matter in his heart at all and asked directly: "Hisser Duke, I am the person in charge of this mission. Now please introduce the situation of the Supreme God Cult."
The Duke knew that since the academy appointed Adam as the head, Adam was the strongest in any sense, and he could only keep his worries in his heart: "You should already know the basic information that now, the entire western region has completely fallen into a dead land, the Supreme God Cult has extended its tentacles out of the west, and even the south has been attacked."
"Father, are you injured by the Supreme God's Sacrifice?" William was very anxious.
The duke showed a fearful expression: "Yes, the god suddenly emerged from the body of an ordinary civilian, sucked the flesh and blood of the civilians, and then shouted the words of the true god coming and began to kill and destroy frantically. I have never seen such a strange magic. He seemed to cast spells completely with flesh and blood. He kept cutting his body open. Every ordinary person contaminated by his blood would be infected and died by him. The most terrifying thing is that the corpse would turn into a monster and resurrected."
"Sorry, Lord Duke, I think this level of magic seems not enough to hurt you?" Corriester suddenly spoke.
The Duke nodded and continued, "Yes, although it hurts a lot to ordinary people, it doesn't mean anything to the apprentice. I thought so before, but just as I was about to kill him, he suddenly rushed to me regardless of everything and then exploded. His self-destruction had amazing power, and instantly broke through my defensive magic. Then, I became like this."
William's eyes were filled with anger, and his fists were thrust with a crisp sound. The Duke smiled at him and comforted him: "It's okay, at least I'm still alive, aren't I? I'll order a mechanical body from the academy and everything will be fine."
Ophelia suddenly said, "Hisser Duke, I wonder if you have retained the flesh and blood of the divine sacrifice?"
"Of course, do you need it now?"
Ophelia said: "Yes."
The Duke stood up in person, took out a small group of sealed flesh and blood from the mansion, and said to Ophelia: "I have completely destroyed most of the flesh and blood that exploded after the gods exploded, leaving only this group, Miss Ophelia, be careful, it has strong aggressiveness."
Ophelia stretched out a finger and pressed it on the seal. The strong magic power burst out instantly, destroying the seal directly. After the flesh and blood were exposed to the air, it began to twist extremely, and flew from the table to Ophelia, who was closest to it.
Ophelia's expression did not change at all, and she directly grabbed the flesh and blood with her hands.
The Duke said in surprise: "Don't use your body to directly contact the flesh and blood, otherwise...uh..."
Ophelia held her hard and blew up the flesh and blood. Under her unique magical power, the flesh and blood were obediently left in her hands.
The next second, Ophelia actually pinched a piece of minced meat and put it in her mouth, chewed it and swallowed it as if nothing had happened, and then said calmly: "It contains low-level blood energy, and has no ability to resist magic, so it can only infect and assimilate ordinary people."
Adam remembered that William once said that Ophelia joined a laboratory, and now it seems that she should have conducted research on body refining and bloodline magic, but this kind of research seems to be really cool.
Ophelia did not care about the duke's strange eyes and continued: "There are more samples missing, but if it is only this level, it will be vulnerable."
A beautiful girl ate the indescribable flesh and blood plainly, and this scene is really weird.
The duke suppressed the unnatural emotions that surged in his heart and said, "It is natural for formal apprentices, but for ordinary people, the harm of the divine sacrifice is extremely huge. Although it is rude to say this, I hope you can solve this matter as soon as possible, otherwise Madeira Island will be over." Originally, he actually hoped that the formal mage would come to solve the Supreme Divine Cult, but it was obvious that no formal mage was willing to come to this magic desert.
Ophelia stopped talking, and Adam asked again: "Is this only capable of the gods?"
"No, I listened to the people who fled from the west that some gods have mastered the power of nature, while some gods are invulnerable and have different abilities. However, one thing can be confirmed that they were all ordinary people before, and they only gained abilities after offering sacrifices to living people."
William noticed a huge problem, that is, they only have four people, even if they are relatively strong, but these gods have the evil magic to turn ordinary people into monsters. Faced with overwhelming enemies, they have no choice, "Father, how powerful are the infected ordinary people fighting?"
The Duke said: "Vulnerable. As long as you abandon your fear, those resurrected monsters can be killed by women with weapons. The only ones that are truly threatening are the gods."
Then Adam got some news from the Duke, and everyone moved into the adjacent luxurious room under the arrangement of the servants. Before resting, Adam suddenly asked William: "Duke, Earl, who awarded these titles?"
William was still worried about his father's affairs. From Frank, he knew the harm of incompatibility of cheap mechanical bodies. He was hesitating to Adam how to teach his father the meditation of the power meditation. He was stunned when he heard this: "Of course it is King Madeira, and the royal city is in the middle."
So that's it. Adam originally thought that the title was awarded by the Tower, but "Why didn't he see an apprentice from the middle?"
"The central part is a royal city, just a city. The royal family is just a nominal symbol. The real strength is very weak. The mage will not take into account the face of the royal family. If you have no qualifications, you don't have qualifications. Speaking of which, there is actually only one city in the north. I just didn't expect that this time there will be three geniuses of this level."
Adam expressed his understanding and then pushed open his door. At this moment, William hesitated and called him: "Adam, my father..."
Adam looked at William quietly.
William made up his mind and said directly: "Can I teach my father the idea of meditation of the mind and motivation?"
Adam looked at him strangely, not knowing why he asked himself about such a thing. William thought Adam was going to refuse and showed a depressed feeling. At this moment, Adam said: "Of course, just pay fifty units of energy stones and teach you who your freedom is."
"Thank you, Adam." William ran towards the Duke's room after thanking him from the heart.
......
Viscount Brown left the Duke's Mansion directly and summoned all his knights to leave the Southern Harbour City overnight.
"Master Viscount, I don't think anyone can catch up with us anymore. Should you tell us the reason?" asked Brown's Knight, a Knight who had only entered the level of the Great Knight in the last strong stage of his life and would not make any progress in his life.
The other knights also looked at Brown in confusion. No one would be happy if he was pulled away when he was about to enjoy it.
"My child who was supposed to be a mage, Quentin Brown, died."
The knights were suddenly in an uproar. They all knew where the title of the man in front of them came from. Now that his hope is gone, can the title be preserved?
Brown ignored their thoughts and continued, "You must have heard of the Supreme God Cult, have you?"
"Of course." Everyone didn't know what Brown mentioned the evil and what he taught him to do at this time.
Brown turned his horse's head to look at the Knight Master: "Kyle, you are very old and your strength will not improve. You have not yet won a hereditary title for your son. Are you willing?" Before the Knight Master answered, he shouted loudly to the other knights: "Many of you do not have even the lowest level title. Although you have a higher status than civilians, you can only respectfully obey the nobles. Are you willing?"
Kyle asked in a deep voice: "Master Viscount, what do you mean?"
"If you don't have strength, you can only be enslaved, but now, I have a way to get your strength."
Kyle was frightened: "You are going to join the Supreme God Cult? Are you crazy? Master will not let you go."
Brown smiled gloomyly, "Master? No, they are just mage apprentices, just like my son..."
