Chapter 647 Tortola Contract ([-])

The body searched was a demon that looked very similar to a human in appearance and figure, except that its skin was fiery red and it had a tail. It was stabbed to death by a soldier with a spear. Its heart is still on it, from this point of view, the combat power of this demon does not seem to be very good.

The paladin who was in charge of searching for the corpse was wearing light white chain armor and the holy emblem of the goddess of moonlight on the chest of the blouse. Obviously he was a paladin belonging to the temple of the moonlight, but he was surprisingly young. Only a faint layer of fluff emerged, and it was a miserable green boy who looked only thirteen or fourteen years old.

Strictly speaking, he is not a regular paladin, but a preliminary paladin. Only after passing a series of tests can he become a real moonlight paladin. There are many such preparatory students in any temple, and they are usually temples. Orphans adopted since childhood, cultivated since childhood, will be extremely strong in both faith and sincerity.

"Miss."

Seeing Gwen Leia coming over, the young paladin preparatory student nodded quickly in greeting, his face a little red and his expression a little nervous and excited.
He was originally not qualified to participate in this war, and together with other preparatory students asked not to go out in the temple, but how can the young man's restless heart be restrained by a single order? After they all left to participate in the war, these young people also secretly left the temple, full of blood and passion, wanting to establish their own exploits.

Reality taught them a heavy lesson, and soon they encountered a small wave of demons, and the young prep students suffered heavy losses during the battle. If not for Gwenleia leading the team to arrive in time, they would have been wiped out , which means that his life was saved by Gwen Leia, so for Gwen Leia, he still has this kind of gratitude.

"is there a problem?"

Gwenleia stared at the demon in front of the paladin, pondered for a moment and said, "Secret demon?"

"Yes ma'am, this is a mystic."

The young paladin nodded and said, "That's why I find it strange that secret demons shouldn't appear here."

Mystic demons are an extremely rare type of abyssal demons. They are not powerful demons. On the contrary, their strength is very weak, but their innate abilities are very strange. They can break all magic circles and barriers, and instinctively find all demons. The secret room, even if the secret room is hidden in a different dimension, can also interpret all the secret language, no matter what kind of complicated encryption method the secret language uses, it can be directly interpreted in the eyes of the secret magic.

This is amazing. It means that all secrets no longer exist in the eyes of secret demons, even if the gods personally encrypt them. Fortunately, the number of secret demons is very small, and their combat power is weak. They belong to the first class in the endless abyss. Rare species, under strict protection, will never show up.

However, at this moment, there is a secret demon that should be strictly protected, and the strongest guard demons around are only extraordinary, and the number is not very large. There must be something tricky in it!
Liu Mei frowned slightly, Gwen Leia said: "Did you find anything on it?"

"Yes, ma'am."

As the young paladin preparatory student spoke, he handed over a small piece of leather. The leather was dark red, rough and tough, and exuded a strong sulfur smell. It was obviously peeled off from a demon and then tanned.

"Devil Wen..."

After receiving the leather, looking at the very complicated lines, graphics and text on it, Gwen Leia was a little helpless. If there was a mage here, a "knowledge of text" would be able to make her understand these evil symbols, but the ones here The only spellcasters are priests and paladins, and most of them are half-baked.

"Let me do it, Ms. Gwen."

A slightly nervous voice came from the side, speaking of a thirteen or fourteen-year-old delicate girl, wearing a thin priest's robe and wearing the sacred emblem of the Lord of the Dawn's trainee priest, but her elk-like eyes gleamed. The longing and admiration for Gwen Leia.

This is also a little priest who was rescued by Gwenleia. The difference is that she did not enter without permission, but the small temple in the civilian area of ​​Guangjuan Holy City where she was located was captured by demons, and most of the clergymen inside died in battle. , Gwen Leia arrived just in time to save her.

"Can you understand demon text?"

Gwen Leia was a little surprised. The devil text is very complicated. It is a kind of graphic text. A graphic can sometimes contain the analysis of hundreds of letters. Under such circumstances, few people will actively learn.

The little pastor nodded a little shyly, and said, "My lord bishop is responsible for handling the confiscated demon contracts and other documents. For the sake of convenience, I will learn."

After she finished speaking, she stared at the demon document in her hand for a while, and a shocked expression appeared on her small face, and she shouted, "This is a high-level demon contract!"

"This contract was signed by one of the Demon Grand Dukes, the Lord of Blood, and...and...His Majesty Tortola Tarton!"

As soon as this remark came out, everyone present was taken aback, and several priests couldn't help shouting: "This is absolutely impossible, you must have read it wrong!"

Tortola Tatton was the Emperor of the Glory Empire who reigned about 70 years ago. His position changed every ten years, and he left behind a good reputation among the Emperors of the Glory Empire, but he was His majesty the emperor changed his previous emperor's style of eating and waiting to die, and worked hard to strengthen the centralization and imperial power. He competed with the Sanguang Council, and even he himself became a legendary powerhouse.

Of course, in the end, Tortola’s efforts still failed, and he was kicked out of office once ten years later, and then disappeared in an astral expedition, but because of his resistance or ambition, the Sanguang Council promulgated Many policies that reduce the burden on the common people are remembered by people, instead of being forgotten as soon as the time is up like other emperors.

Most of the clergymen present were from the civilian class, so they had a good impression of Emperor Tortola who had fought for their own interests. Therefore, it was difficult to accept that His Majesty the Emperor would actually fight with the Abyss Demon and be the same person. It is related to the name of the Demon Archduke.

"The contract has His Majesty Tortola's autograph, and even the name of the contract is 'Tortola Contract'. It's not like you don't know the devil's contract, and you can't fake it in this regard."

The little pastor said with a complicated expression: "So there is no doubt that this is the contract that Emperor Tortola once signed with the blood master of the demon archduke, and its content is... when necessary, he will sacrifice all The lives of the residents are exchanged for the devastating blow of the demon army to the three temples of Dawn, Twilight and Moonlight!"
