On the History of the Pope's Death

Walking to Arnold, he was holding an ordinary vine in his hand, noticing Lucia's questioning eyes looking at the vine, Arnold fiddled with the green vine in his hand, and explained with a chuckle: "Brother, this looks like a vine. It's no different from ordinary vines, but it doesn't feel like vines to the touch." He handed the vines in front of Lucia, "Brother, come and feel it."

Lucia took the vine from Arnold's hand and touched it carefully. The feeling was indeed very strange. It was not a plant-specific feeling, but like a rope. When she moved her gaze from the vine to Arnold, Lucia praised: "You do That's fine." Arnold was really good at noticing such subtle differences.

Arnold enjoyed his brother's praise and rolled his eyes with a smile.Sandy, who was standing aside, looked at the vine in Lucia's hand with lost eyes and annoyance. He was obviously the one who searched there first, so why didn't he find that unusual vine.

Lucia first tentatively tugged on the so-called 'vine' lightly, and there was nothing abnormal. Just when he wanted everyone to back off, and he tried to pull harder, Sandy walked over, from He took the 'Vine' in his hand, "Master Shengzi, please let me come."

Looking at Sandy's persistent eyes, Lucia silently passed her position, and then said to the people waiting behind her: "Everyone take two steps back and pay attention to safety."

Arnold stood next to Lucia, looking at Sandy with everyone.

Sandy turned to look at Lucia, and after he nodded, he pulled the 'vine' vigorously, and then quickly took two steps back, almost the moment the 'vine' was pulled, the entire mountain wall came from the inside There was a sound of 'Boom Boom Boom', and after a while, a gap that could accommodate an adult appeared on the far left of the stone wall.

When I got close, I looked in, but I couldn't see anything because it was so dark.

At this time, the footsteps behind her became clearer and clearer. It was obvious that the undead were chasing them. Lucia turned her head and glanced behind her. With the faint light of the torch, she could see the rotting bodies of the undead, and even some of them could be seen. Two undead rotted to the point of skeletons. Presumably, these undead should be the ancestors of the town of Rostock. They were buried in this mountain forest, but their sleep was disturbed by the dark mage.

Turning around, Lucia said in a deep voice, "Let's go in."

The knights also saw the undead chasing after them, and reacted quickly to Lucia's words and formed their formation. The four swordsmen and Sandy walked in front of the gap holding torches. Lucia, Joe Sling and Arnold walked in the middle, and the others followed.

The gap looks deep from the outside, but it’s not that long when you walk, but it’s about 50 meters away, and it gets wider and wider as you walk in. When you get out of the gap, you can see a huge area in front of you. There are more than a dozen torches placed on the walls around the cave, illuminating the entire cave as if it were daytime. When they entered the cave, the knights all extinguished the torches in their hands.

Looking at the entire cave, apart from a large bed, there is only a rectangular table that occupies a large area. On the table, there are many bottles and jars of different colors in a mess.

Lucia stepped forward, looked around but did not find the figure of the dark mage, judging from the things that hadn't been packed yet, he must have left in a hurry.Picking up a glass bottle on the table, the purple liquid in the bottle reflected a strange light, giving people an ominous feeling. Putting down the bottle, Lucia beckoned Arnold to put away these things on the table.

Not finding the dark mage as expected, Lucia and the others couldn't help but feel a little disappointed.Everyone checked the cave carefully again, and after confirming that there were no Tibetan traps, they all turned their attention to Lucia.

Lucia felt very pressured by the people's questioning eyes, and finally found this place, but was in vain, probably because of their undisguised behavior before.He looked up at everyone's tired faces and bloodshot eyes, looked at Sandy and said, "Send someone out to check on the situation of the undead, and then we'll make plans."

According to Lucia, if the dark mage really escaped after knowing their strength, then the level should not be too high. As long as they are still there, they dare not do anything again.

"Master Son, all the undead outside have disappeared!" The knight who came back from a hasty investigation bent down and reported to Lucia in a pleasant tone.

As expected, it seems that this dark mage's ability is not outstanding, and he is just a low-level mage.The undead summoned by a dark mage is also divided into quality. A low-level dark mage can only summon a few hundred undead at a time, and there is still a time limit. When the time is up, the undead will disappear. The number of undead will be about twice that of the low-level ones, and the time will last longer. Usually it will not dissipate for a few days or nights. At the holy level, although the number of undead summoned will not be more than that of high-level dark mages, But the undead summoned by the holy ranks are truly immortal. If the light magic or the dark mage are not killed, then those summoned undead will never dissipate.

After confirming the thoughts in his heart, Lucia breathed a sigh of relief, and said gently to everyone who was still looking at him: "It will be dawn in a few hours, let's take a rest here tonight, We'll go down the mountain again tomorrow morning."

After tossing around for most of the night, after listening to Lucia's words, the knights found their positions in the cave, and simply laid down blankets and lay down to rest.Only Lucia, Arnold and Sandy were left standing there without moving.

Lucia went to bed early last night, so he doesn't feel too sleepy now. He walked to the stool not far from the long table and sat down, and said in a low voice to Arnold and Sandy who had been following him every step of the way: " Why don't you go to sleep."

At this time, the two who had been faintly at odds before said in unison with a rare tacit understanding: "We are not sleepy." "We are not sleepy."

The two insisted, and Lucia stopped talking.He just tilted his head and whispered to Sandy: "You can report the situation here to His Majesty the Pope tomorrow, and ask him to send some great magicians of the light system to come over here, and be sure to catch this dark mage. We We can't stay here for too long, I'm afraid he will come back once we leave."

"Yes, I will take care of it. Please rest assured, Lord Son." Sandy's mellow and full-textured voice sounded low in the cave.

Sandy always felt at ease when dealing with Lucia, so he didn't speak anymore.The three of them fell silent for a moment. Lucia took out a book from the space, intending to pass the time. Anyway, the light in the cave is not weak.

For a moment, apart from the light grunting of the knights, the only sound left in the cave was the sound of Lucia turning the pages of the book.

Arnold stood behind Lucia, watched him not turn a page for a long time, and took a light step forward, only to realize that his brother had fallen asleep with the book in one hand and his chin in the other.He carefully took the book out of his brother's hand, put it into his own space, and took out a thick cloak from the space, and gently put it on his brother.

Sandy moved to the edge of the gap into the cave when Lucia started reading, and stood quietly against the wall.Seeing Arnold's movements, he just raised his eyebrows, silently retracted the foot he had already stepped out, and looked at Arnold with an inexplicable expression on the corner of his mouth, and then kept staring at the torch on the opposite stone wall, as if Like in a daze.

With a slip of his arm, Lucia nodded his head fiercely, waking him up from his sleep. When he raised his head, Lucia blinked his hazy eyes, stretched out his hand and rubbed his sore arm, and then realized that he I fell asleep while reading a book.

"Brother, are you awake?"

Arnold's voice made Lucia wake up completely. When he saw Arnold bent down to pick up the cloak under his feet, he knew that it must have fallen to the ground when he woke up just now, and he knew whose masterpiece it was without thinking. His heart was touched. The boy Arnold cared, with a natural smile on his face and said: "Thanks for your hard work."

"It's not hard at all." Arnold replied softly.

Standing up, Lucia realized that everyone else in the cave was gone except him and Arnold. After moving his stiff legs and feet, Lucia asked suspiciously, "Where are there others in Sandy?"

"Brother, they are all awake and outside."

Even if Arnold didn't say anything, Lucia knew that he probably didn't want to disturb his sleep, so they all went out after waking up. That's why it's good to be a holy son. If it wasn't something urgent, basically no one would disturb his sleep. of.It was the same when he was in the Holy See. He slept until he woke up naturally almost every day. For Lucia, who was essentially an otaku, he couldn't have been happier.

As Lucia walked out, she smiled and said to Arnold, "Then let's go out too."

After going out, I saw Sandy, Jocelyn and others eating a simple breakfast by the stone wall.

After finishing breakfast as easily as everyone else, Lucia couldn't wait to take everyone back. You must know that they have been here for more than two days, and Kleist's school day is coming soon, don't hurry up , It is estimated that they will not be able to catch up, which is why Lucia gave up on chasing the dark mage before. Anyway, their original task is to find out the situation, and I believe the Holy See will solve the rest.
