Chapter 130 The Unknown Story

Chapter 130 The Unknown Story

According to the follow-up intelligence in Anvis's hands, after the Heavy Sword Mercenary Group encountered an incident, some family members of the former Heavy Sword Mercenary Group spontaneously investigated the whereabouts of the mercenary group members.

But soon, these people disappeared one by one.

One of them claimed that he had obtained important clues about the whereabouts of the Heavy Sword Mercenary Group and called on others to go search together.

The next day, the man's cold body was found on the roadside with several deep penetrating wounds on his body, and no one dared to take it.

Certain forces in the dark launched a thorough cleansing of everything related to the Heavy Sword Mercenaries.

The woman’s death is also closely related to this.

She was investigating alone, and because she had no experience in this area, she was soon spotted by someone with ulterior motives during her investigation. Then she was brutally murdered on the way to Manchenko Castle.

The bodies were carried by mounted animals and abandoned in the wilderness beside the road.

Before she died, her strong obsession and some soul fragments were left on the necklace, forming an obsession item of the lowest level.

Originally, with her ordinary person's strength, it was totally insufficient for her residual soul to develop self-awareness.

Not to mention asking for help from others and eliminating one's own obsessions during one's lifetime.

If this situation continues, after a long period of exposure to the sun and rain, her remaining soul will only become weaker and weaker, and finally disappear with the weathering and rust of the black iron necklace it is attached to.

But luckily, she met a player who had a game panel that could automatically trigger the task.

Even more fortunately, in order to explore the plot and trigger high-level tasks as much as possible, the last dragonborn took the initiative to begin digging for the truth behind this mission.

According to a warning letter, she conducted an in-depth investigation into the behind-the-scenes situation, attacked the secret transport team, handed over the evidence of the White Rose Legion's smuggling to Anvis, and buried her jewelry with the remains of her lover.

This series of actions happened to resolve most of the woman's obsession.

Thus, this strong obsession of relief, along with most of her prophetic gift, permeated the material of the necklace.

This turned this originally ordinary black iron necklace into a very rare material for prophecy accessories.

This is the process of the necklace in front of Avis forming——

Although because the woman was just an ordinary person, the final material was of a lower grade.

But it was a prophecy material after all. If it was sold, the price would be at least thousands of gold coins. … .….Stretching out his mental tentacles, Avis carefully examined the various properties of this prophecy material.

Because its predecessor was a necklace, it is more suitable for making jewelry.

The way to maximize the power of this material is to use it as the main material to refine a magic ornament that can enhance the prophet's predictive ability.

However, in this material, there seems to be a trace of obsession that has not yet dissipated——

Gently loosening his hands, Avis let the necklace hang in the air.

Then, staring at the blonde woman in the photo of the black iron pendant, Avis leaned his staff on the ground and spoke softly.

Unlike usual, his voice this time was mixed with a strange and obscure rhythm, as if he was chanting some ancient and mysterious ancestral prayer.

Moreover, the language he used at this moment was not Manic, but a very obscure variant of ancient Manic.

“I don’t know your name, but I know your story.”

"I'm so sorry for what happened to you."

"I am going to take this necklace away from you."

"But following the old principle of equal exchange, I won't take it away for nothing."

"According to intelligence, I understand that you have three children. Two boys and one girl."

"As a price for taking this necklace, I will send someone to look after your offspring until they are adults and have enough independence."

"If one of your descendants possesses professional talent, he will be eligible to enter the Professional Academy free of charge until he becomes a formal professional."

"In the name of Anvis Lo Olivendi, the Walker of the Soul..."

"【Spirit World Announcement】——"

As a lawful spellcaster, Anvis always abides by the principle of equal exchange...

Well, most of the time.

As Anvis finished his chant, the dark blue crystal on the end of the staff glowed slightly. Invisible magic ripples instantly spread out, echoing in the deadly canyon.

Although the name sounds powerful, the effect of this spell is actually just to communicate with the residual soul in the necklace.

Moreover, because it was a declaration, this kind of communication was one-sided. . ….….When Avis’s voice faded, a glimmer of light flashed across the surface of the pendant, and the last trace of obsession completely dissipated from the necklace.

At the same time, the quality of the pendant material has been improved again.

The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!

——From the original low-level prophecy material, it barely reached the mid-level level, and the value also rose to about two to three thousand gold coins.

In the dim light, when the last bit of obsession completely left the necklace, Avis seemed to see a faint shadow of a woman.

She has long golden hair that shines like the sun and skin as white as milk.

With a slightly sad smile on her face, the woman bowed deeply to Avis with great gratitude.

Afterwards, she floated towards the direction of the Hand of the Earth and slowly embraced the broken corpse lying in its huge palm, her eyes revealing a strong reluctance and attachment.

Once upon a time, she also had a happy family——

Points of light floated up from her body, and her figure gradually faded in the light.

A drop of illusory tear ran down her cheek, but before it fell to the ground, it drifted away with her body in the never-ending wind.

In the desolate and silent valley of stars, her unknown story came to an end.

——Even the intelligence about the Olivendi family never mentioned her name.

"it's over……"

Feeling the feedback of fate that suddenly increased again, Avis put away the necklace and looked at the corpse lying quietly in the palm of the earth, looking extremely lonely, and couldn't help but sigh.

A young and promising mercenary, a woman with the gift of prophecy, and three half-grown children who may have professional talents.

The reward for this mission was to completely destroy this family.

——Just two hundred gold coins.

After a moment's silence, Avis turned and left.

Behind him, according to the will of the controller, the giant hand of the earth clenched into a fist again, carrying everything that remained in its palm, and slowly sank deep into the ground.

The dead are gone, but the living still have to struggle for their own destiny. . ….…..Gu—— →Recommendation Ticket
