Of course, it was the process of planting the spy that gave the fox-faced Serpico a deep shock.
Because he saw with his own eyes that all the knights, including the eldest lady, were touched by a humanoid monster with slender limbs, pale skin without hair, and swollen yellow eyes with long pupils. After just a few seconds, identical copies appeared.
These terrifying monsters can even accurately tell all the secrets in the hearts of the cloned people, and can also imitate their tone, habits and movements.
If you don't see it with your own eyes, even the most familiar person would find it difficult to find any flaws.
The creepy and eerie feeling made Serpico feel his scalp tingling and his hands and feet cold.
You know, he originally planned to use some clever tricks to rescue Farnese who was under house arrest.
But now that he is surrounded by a group of monsters that can transform at any time, he has completely given up the unrealistic ideas in his heart and is ready to do his promising job as a spy and guide peacefully.
For no other reason, I just hope that the other party can treat my sister a little better because I am still useful.
As for other requests, they didn't even dare to mention them.
Because after witnessing the horror of these monsters and the power of muskets, cannons, grenades, and barrels of explosives, he realized that Zuo Si's rise was almost inevitable.
Other armies composed mainly of feudal nobles and knights would never be able to defeat this powerful army on the battlefield. This army was well-disciplined, well-equipped, and highly motivated, where even ordinary soldiers had the opportunity to be promoted to generals.
To be exact, they would be crushed to pieces in the first battle and would not have any chance of winning at all.
The most terrible thing is that there is one complete difference between wars using hot weapons and wars using cold weapons, and that is the horrific death rate.
Why did all European countries begin to gradually shift from the original volunteer system to the compulsory military service system starting from the French Revolution, and even further developed a series of concepts such as citizenship and national consciousness in order to trick more soldiers into going to the front lines to fight?
The answer is that with the development of thermal weapons, the cost and price of war are becoming increasingly high.
The nobles could no longer wear sturdy armor and go to the battlefield as they did in the era of cold weapons. Even if they were defeated, they did not have to worry about being killed. Instead, they could come back safe and sound by paying a ransom, and then hold their breath to find an opportunity to get back on track.
In other words, thermal weapons have brought about fundamental changes in the form of war, and have also accelerated the breaking of the aristocracy's monopoly on military force.
If we want to fight it, we must carry out drastic reforms.
Such reforms would enable the lower-class common people to gain the power to resist the rule of the aristocracy, and often a mutiny or riot would sweep the king and the nobles into the dustbin of history.
But if there is no reform, the result will be defeat, destruction, and then the entire country will be conquered and annexed.
The history of modern Europe on Earth has been driven by hot weapons wars, which have led to continuous and drastic social changes.
Of course, Serpico might not know this, but he was aware of the terrifying power of this new regime and Zuo Si, its supreme ruler.
It's like a snowball rolling down from the top of a snowy mountain.
Maybe it is very small at the beginning, but as it rolls faster and faster and rolls farther and farther, it will eventually become a behemoth that can submerge everything.
As an extremely rational person, Serpico would never risk his sister's life and future.
This can be seen when the eldest daughter is asked to get married at the age of sixteen.
He was well aware of the serious consequences of doing so, and he was unable to give his sister a happy future.
In order to make Farnese live a better life, Serpico would be willing to make any sacrifice.
Zuo Si keenly grasped this point, and thus was able to turn it into a chess piece under his control.
After all, a "family hero" like this with very obvious weaknesses is simply a gift package delivered to your door.
As for the plot where one rushes into the enemy base and kills everyone to complete a stunning rescue for family or friends, it only appears in action blockbusters that lack logic and rationality.
Under normal circumstances, from the moment the alarm is triggered by the attack, the kidnappers should directly drag the hostage out and cut off an arm or a leg, or dig out both eyes and cut off the tongue, using the bloodiest and cruelest way to force the hostage to show up and kill him.
Therefore, anyone with a little bit of common sense and brains would never do such a stupid thing.
That is not a rescue at all, but forcing the other party to kill their relatives and friends.
As the saying goes, a rational and smart person is always easier to deal with than a stupid and crazy person.
Because all the thoughts and actions of the former are predictable, but the latter is like a lunatic, you never know what outrageous thing he will do in the next second.
Obviously, Serpico is a typical example of the former.
Therefore, Zuo Si was not afraid of how smart he was, but was afraid that he was not smart enough and could not clearly realize the huge gap between them.
"Your Majesty, I will return to the Dharma King's Hall now. Do you have any other instructions?"
Serpico bowed respectfully and asked in a low voice.
At this moment, he was surrounded by hundreds of shapeshifters who had replaced the members of the Knights Templar, so he looked unusually respectful and submissive.
Because under this level of surveillance, he knew very well that even without the eldest lady as a hostage, he would have absolutely no chance of betrayal.
Even if he showed the slightest desire to resist, he might be killed and replaced by a monster, just like those noble knights who were thrown into the mines to work as laborers.
"No, there are no special instructions, you just need to remember to do two things.
The first is to find the black swordsman named Guts and tell him that I can help him get revenge.
Second, always pay attention to what is happening in the Tower of Judgment and the invasion of the Kusha Empire.
As for the rest, they will figure it out themselves.”
As he spoke, Zuo Si glanced at the cybershape monster he had summoned from New Phyrexia out of the corner of his eye.
Different from the traditional shapeshifters in Faerun, these are a new generation of shapeshifters created through cloning technology and oil refinement.
Its transformation ability comes not only from spell-like abilities, but also from biotechnology, nanotechnology, and 3D projection technology that is so lifelike that it can be mistaken for a real thing.
In other words, in addition to being able to perfectly replace another person, they can also influence hormone secretion by creating an atmosphere and stimulating the senses, and even give the other person unimaginable pleasure and satisfaction during a pleasure session.
Therefore, when performing infiltration and stealth missions, these guys often perform much better than traditional shapeshifters.
Especially in this low-magic world where magic basically belongs to myths and legends, it is a completely crushing existence.
Even though there are only a hundred of them, after returning to the King's Hall, they will immediately start to act separately, enter the high-level positions of various countries in a very short time and secretly collect intelligence and pass on messages.
If necessary, they will also control some important families and use the resources at their disposal to establish a huge intelligence network.
In short, there are many things these cyber shapeshifters can do, even completely turning the eastern region of the continent into a living hell.
"Understood."
Serpico nodded slightly, then glanced at his sister who was standing not far away wearing a noble long dress and a black veil covering her face with a look of reluctance. Then he mounted his horse and led this group of knights full of monsters all the way eastward, embarking on the journey back to the King's Hall.
After watching the team disappear at the end of the road, Berrant, the royal steward, immediately stepped forward and whispered, "Your Majesty, the envoy from the Kingdom of Alred has arrived. When do you plan to meet him?"
"The Kingdom of Alred? Is it the country that belongs to the nobles who attacked the border some time ago and were killed by us?"
Zuo Si asked without turning his head.
Through the maps he had previously found in the royal collection, he had roughly understood that this continent was basically equivalent to Europe in the late Middle Ages.
Among them, the Kingdom of Midlan, where the Eagle Group is active, is roughly equivalent to the Byzantine Empire, which is about to perish, and is located almost at the easternmost end of the continent.
And where I am now is equivalent to being in Western Europe.
As to whether it is closer to Spain or France, it is unknown.
After all, it is not a one-to-one replica. There are huge differences in both appearance and geography.
But what is certain is that every one of these surrounding countries is an absolute weakling, and they have not yet equipped their armies with either muskets or artillery.
On the contrary, some mercenaries occasionally use similar large-caliber primitive pistols.
Of course, its power is limited to causing effective damage within 20 to 30 meters.
If it were any farther, the bullet would have no idea where to go.
Berlant answered without hesitation: “Yes, that's them.
The messenger was very angry that you killed the nobles of the Kingdom of Alred for no reason.
Obviously, they want to condemn you to your face according to tradition, and then use this opportunity to recruit allies to form a coalition to fight us.
According to the news sent back by the spies, several surrounding countries have been sending envoys to each other frequently recently.
If nothing unexpected happens, this should be a multinational coalition of unprecedented scale.
Because what you did touched their bottom line."
"Hahahaha! Great, it's best if you come together, so I don't have to deal with them one by one."
Zuo Si laughed contemptuously, then turned his gaze to Hemit who had followed him all the way here: "My dear general, are you ready to give the world a little shock?"
"Of course, Your Majesty. I can't wait to tear these foolish nobles and kings apart with the roar of gunpowder and let them know that you are the true master of this continent."
Hemit clenched his fist, slapped his chest hard, and made a solemn promise.
After all, after learning the advanced tactics of coordinating line infantry, artillery and cavalry, the backward armies dominated by knights like those of feudal lords were nothing more than a group of lambs to be slaughtered in his eyes.
If there are too many casualties on one's side in a battle, it means the commander is unqualified.
Of course, considering that the range of muskets is still relatively short, spear phalanxes and crossbowmen still need to be retained.
As for the remaining messy arms, they can all be disbanded and eliminated.
"Very good, I will wait and see how you perform.
Remember, my principle in employing people is always ability first.
No one can always occupy a position by relying on seniority.
If you don't want to be overtaken by latecomers, you must constantly surpass yourself and become stronger and stronger.
Otherwise, I will ruthlessly clean out those useless people who are just sitting there doing nothing."
When saying this, Zuo Si's tone was full of naked and undisguised warnings.
As a typical dictator and tyrant, he doesn't care about nonsense like new clothes are not as good as new ones and old people are not as good as old ones, and he is not afraid of his subordinates rebelling because of dissatisfaction and resentment.
Theories such as "human affairs are politics" which can only be applied to mortals are obviously not applicable to a demon god who transcends life and death and even time and space.
"Please rest assured that we will never let you down."
Hemit and a group of promoted officers tensed up instantly and responded with a serious look on their faces.
After all, Zuo Si had used the heads of hundreds of corrupt officials to prove that he would definitely do what he said.
Therefore, no one dared to ignore such a warning.
Seeing that his words had worked, Zuo Si showed satisfaction on his face. He turned around and walked straight to Farnese, lifted the black veil covering his face, gently stroked the other's iconic face, and said meaningfully: "Come on, come back with me, it's time to conduct more experiments. You should know that your talent in magic is not limited to this, and there is more potential to be tapped."
Hearing this, the young lady couldn't help but tremble. She clenched her fists tightly and begged in an almost humble tone: "No, don't, don't make me do those weird things again. I can't bear it and will go completely crazy!"
"Go crazy if you want. This world is dark and hopeless enough anyway. Going crazy might be a way to get relief."
Zuo Si had a creepy smile on his face, and obviously didn't take the other party's overreaction seriously.
In his opinion, Farnese was still a long way from having a mental breakdown and going completely crazy. He was just spoiled since childhood and couldn't endure hardship.
What's more, even if she was really crazy, what would happen? Could she be crazier than Isadora, who tore her own personality into countless pieces and then tried to put it back together? With a little training and reshaping of her worldview, she could return to "normal" in a matter of minutes.
Now Zuo Si only wants to understand the magic system of this world through Farnese's magical talent, as well as the connection between the underworld and the deeper abyss.
"No, no, no, don't come over here."
The eldest lady was obviously frightened by the faint light flashing in Zuo Si's eyes, and turned around and wanted to escape.
But before she could even take two steps, the maid Paris blocked her way.
The next second...
Farnese was carried up by Zuo Si and walked towards the palace.
The other people around were obviously used to this, and no one paid any attention to the woman's noise and cries for help.
Because in their eyes, it is an honor for the king to be favored by him.
This is an opportunity that many people would love to have.
There were hundreds of big businessmen who were eager to send their sisters and daughters to the palace to serve as maids as a means of getting close to the king.
Just like that, amid the eldest lady's fierce resistance and struggle, a new round of magic experiments soon began.
Because only by better understanding the underworld and the sea of thoughts can Zuo Si get close to the God of the Abyss at the level of thought and consciousness, and ultimately achieve the goal of merging with or even devouring him.
In the following period, he did not personally lead the army to fight wars, but delegated power to his generals and senior officers, trained them and gave them the opportunity to accumulate more war experience.
Internally, we began to focus on system building and breakthroughs in various processes and technologies.
When the war broke out with several neighboring countries, prototypes of machine tools, hydraulic locomotives, and even steam engines were invented one after another.
Primitive industrial products are impacting the market at an extremely cheap price, forcing the entire society to make constant adjustments and changes.
This reborn country is developing rapidly in a way that the world cannot understand at all. It has completed a journey that took hundreds of years in European history in just a few months.
When the first chimney emitting thick black smoke rose in the planned industrial zone, several legions under Zuo Si had already defeated all the invading countries around them and began to advance in the opposite direction, unscrupulously attacking cities and territories in the enemy's territory, continuing to implement the previous policy of distributing land to serfs and tenants, and then supporting merchants, craftsmen and other urban classes.
After a series of combined blows, the rule of several kingdoms showed signs of collapse.
After realizing the benefits that ending aristocratic rule would bring to them, the lower-class civilians in these countries began to riot on a large scale, killing tax collectors, sheriffs, stewards and other aristocratic lackeys, and then welcoming the royal army with their heads in their hands.
Many nobles were frightened by this situation. They either hid in the last fortress, the royal capital, or cowered in the castle and dared not come out until the bronze cannon blasted through the gate and welcomed the arrival of doomsday.
Someone once said that the most important thing for a country is to create a centralized and efficient administrative system.
The division and decline of Rome was due to the fact that this system was not well built, while the reason why the distant East was able to maintain unity for a long time was because someone used advanced wisdom to create an effective administrative system and continuously improved it.
So this time Zuo Si planned to play this empire-building game in the style of a business simulation game.
Of course, it would be a different matter if a more powerful apostle emerged from somewhere.
In fact, during the army's conquests, he actually captured quite a few apostles hiding among nobles, mercenaries and bandits, probably more than a hundred in number.
Currently, these apostles are imprisoned in the dungeon of the palace and are undergoing inhumane and crazy experiments.
“Aa…
"Kill me! Kill me now!"
"Give me a quick death! Please! Have mercy!"
"Get out of here! I don't want to drink that disgusting liquid of unknown origin!"
…
Accompanied by the screams and wails, a new round of experiments began.
Especially the former, the confusion, fear and despair on his face were no longer there, but instead there was an evil and cruelty that could not be described in words.
It was obvious that under Zuo Si's insane training, this young lady had been completely ruined.
To be precise, it completely aroused the already extremely cruel side of her heart.
It is not difficult to tell from the sickly and enjoying smile that Farnese has been transformed into Zuo Si's own shape.
Of course, the other maid was no worse, and could also do extremely cruel things with a smile on her face, such as digging out the eyes of an apostle, or cutting off part of his internal organs or limbs.
And because of Zuo Si's magical transformation and swordsmanship training, her physical fitness has surpassed the scope of mortals. Even in a one-on-one battle, she can easily crush most apostles, so she has no fear of these strange guys.
Seeing that all the apostles drank the potion he prepared and showed pain, Zuo Si stroked his chin and said in a slightly playful tone: "Do you know?
According to the laws of natural evolution, whether a species will evolve into another species mainly depends on changes in the environment.
For example, fish close to the shore may gradually become independent of water and evolve into amphibians such as frogs and toads due to the lack of food and oxygen underwater.
Amphibians would gradually evolve into reptiles such as lizards and dinosaurs, and then into mammals and humans.
Of course, this process is very long, often measured in tens of millions or even hundreds of millions of years.
So I often can’t help but wonder, if there is a creature with almost unlimited recovery ability, does that mean it can quickly adapt to all environmental changes in a short period of time?
To prove it, I gave you something stronger to drink.
I want to see whether you can adapt and complete the evolution, or whether you can’t bear it and explode all over…”
Before Zuo Si could finish his words, an apostle with the appearance of a lizard began to swell uncontrollably from the belly to the head. One could even see the violently twitching muscles and blood beneath the scales.
He was obviously terrified and screamed in panic: "No! Don't do this! Save me! I don't want to die!"
But in a flash, the apostle's body exploded on the spot and turned into a blood mist that splattered everywhere.
"Ah - what a shame, it seems you were unable to complete your evolution."
Zuo Si sighed with pretended regret, and that slightly sad tone was obviously crocodile tears.
"Master, look, that one over there is about to explode."
The maid pointed to another apostle that looked like a beetle not far away and reminded him.
But Zuo Si shrugged his shoulders indifferently: "It doesn't matter, it exploded, it can only be blamed on him being too weak, and the abyss power in his body is seriously insufficient. After all, the essence of the law of nature is the survival of the fittest, a small loss is still acceptable."
"Devil...devil! You are simply a devil!"
The Beetle Apostle let out a desperate cry in the last moments of his life.
Because he originally thought that he was evil, cold-blooded and cruel enough, having killed hundreds of people since becoming an apostle.
But after falling into Zuo Si's hands, he realized that compared with the man in front of him, what he had done before could only be described as venting his animal desires, and it was far from true darkness and evil.
Less than a second after he said this, the apostle's body exploded and he died completely.
Within a few minutes, more than two-thirds of the apostles in this dungeon, which was originally used to imprison prisoners, exploded and died.
From the energy that spewed out of their bodies when they exploded, Farnese could clearly feel the bottomless darkness and evil.
She was now finally certain that if these people were truly the so-called apostles of God, then this God must be incredibly evil and not the loving God that the French King's Office preached.
Just when the young lady thought that all these apostles would be wiped out after enduring energy that exceeded their own limits, an apostle without a fixed shape like a slime suddenly let out a shrill scream.
Then his body was blown up and turned into a huge sphere, and eyes, nose and mouth slowly grew on it.
"I...I seem to have become stronger? Hahahaha!
That’s right!
I have become stronger!
I am now a different person than I was before!"
The spherical apostle laughed hysterically like a madman, and the look he gave Zuo Si was filled with resentment and malice.
Just a second later, he suddenly sprayed a large amount of liquid with a pungent smell from his mouth.
Zuo Si took two steps back and just managed to avoid the sudden attack.
But although he dodged it, the ground under his feet was corroded by the liquid and bubbles quickly emerged, making a harsh hissing sound, and eventually formed a small pit half a meter deep.
It goes without saying that these liquids are a terrible strong acid. If ordinary people come into contact with them, they will be corroded in minutes without leaving even a bone.
"So... this is the ability you gain after completing your evolution? Interesting!"
Zuo Si looked at the large corrosion pit in front of him with an interested expression.
Because this is obviously not a problem of physiological structure, it is a spell-like ability transformed from the energy of the underworld.
To be precise, even the apostles' ability to transform is the result of the energy of the underworld.
In other words, the so-called apostles sacrificed their humanity in exchange for the God of the Abyss establishing a node in their souls.
Through the energy injected into this node, apostles can often gain superhuman strength and some magic-like abilities.
What Zuo Si was doing was to bypass the God of the Abyss and inject more underworld energy into them.
As a result, those who are unsteady, hesitant or confused will suffer an imbalance of energy in their bodies, eventually causing them to explode and die.
But if they had no hesitation or confusion, they would be able to merge the two energies into one, which is equivalent to some top apostles gaining greater power through secondary sacrifice.
Of course, the counterfeits made by Zuo Si are certainly not as good as the originals, but they are able to reveal the relationship between the Apostles and the God of the Abyss.
No wonder even the most powerful apostle could not stand up to the Hand of God.
The energy levels in their bodies were not on the same level from the beginning.
If the node in the apostle's soul is compared to a grain of rice, then God's hand is a basketball.
While Zuo Si was observing and analyzing with great interest these apostles who had just completed their evolution, the latter had spontaneously stood together and united, as if they wanted to use their strengthened powers to kill the madman who had tortured and abused them.
"Master, please be careful. The auras of some of them have become very dangerous."
Paris, the maid, warned nervously.
If it was a one-on-one fight, she would naturally not be afraid of these defeated opponents.
But the problem is that there are obviously about thirty apostles who have completed the second evolution. If a fight breaks out, the danger can be said to be quite high.
But Zuo Sigan shook his head and said, "Don't worry, they can't turn the tables. Besides, these are excellent experimental materials, I won't waste them."
After saying this, Zuo Si gave the eldest lady a look that was half a smile.
Farnese understood instantly, closed his eyes suddenly and began to chant a spell to shape the energy from the underworld.
"Damn it! That's a witch! Kill her now!"
The leading Beetle Apostle shouted loudly to the others.
But unfortunately it's all too late.
Under the inhumane and cruel training of Zuo Si, the "famous teacher", the eldest daughter has long since been reborn and has completely cut off her own weaknesses.
She completed all the steps in just a few seconds, pursed her lips with a sneer, raised her hand and released the completed spell.
Boom!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! With a deafening roar, a huge shock wave pushed forward along the wall of the dungeon, knocking all the apostles along the way to the ground in less than a second. Even the walls were covered with cracks as dense as spider webs.
Some even suffered internal injuries and lay on the ground spitting out blood.
There is no doubt that although the energy used by Farnese comes from the underworld, it belongs to a completely different system compared to the witches in this world.
Or perhaps the way fairies and witches utilized the energy of the underworld was too inefficient, so Zuo Si simply looked down on it, so he simply created another magic system out of thin air.
After a successful attack, the eldest lady did not give these apostles any chance to fight back. She cast a second spell to create magical tentacles out of thin air and bound them to the seal one by one.
After doing all this, she turned around and stared at Zuo Si like a puppy longing for praise from its owner.
"Well done, you have made progress."
Zuo Si smiled faintly and gently touched the other person's head.
moment!
Farnese narrowed his eyes and showed an expression of great satisfaction.
I'm afraid Serpico would never have dreamed that after only a few months of his absence, his lovely sister would become a loyal dog who obeyed Zuo Si's orders.
Even if there is a chance to save people now, the young lady would not be willing to leave with him.
However, this fox-faced young man couldn't take care of anything else at the moment.
Because he was being forced to retreat by a heavy sword.
Especially the hand holding the sword, which had been shaking uncontrollably due to several parries and blocks, and there were huge holes and dense cracks on the sword that were difficult to detect with the naked eye.
The reason for this situation is that he finally met Guts, the legendary black swordsman, one of the leaders of the Cult of the Great Sword, who wields the Dragon Slaying Sword.
If Serpico hadn't seen it with his own eyes, he would never have believed that a human arm could wield a weapon of this weight.
And the other party used one hand! "Damn it! Can't you calm down and listen to what I have to say?"
Serpico dodged and complained with sweat all over his forehead.
If he had known this would be the result, he would not have chosen to come himself, but would have asked those shapeshifters to come.
"How do you know about the feud between Griffith and me? Are you also an apostle in human skin?"
Guts was now obviously completely dominated by anger and hatred and turned into a berserker. He exuded an aura that showed he didn't care about his own life or death and only wanted to kill the other person.
"I told you! All this was told to me by His Majesty King Roald I! I am just conveying his meaning to you! If you have any questions, you can go west to the country he rules and ask him in person.
According to the latest news, his army has just conquered the Kingdom of Sita.
By horseback it would only take about two weeks to reach the border.”
When saying this, Serpico's tone clearly revealed helplessness and impatience.
What he hated most in his life was dealing with such a brainless and reckless man, especially when this reckless man's strength was so terrifying.
"Is what you said true?"
Guts was obviously calmer now, and he no longer continued to swing the terrifying dragon-slaying sword to attack.
Serpico rolled his eyes in annoyance: "Do I have to lie to you? You should know that the French King's Office has issued a warrant for your arrest. I took a huge risk to inform you."
"But how do I know this isn't a scam or a trap? As the monarch of a country, you shouldn't be able to see just anyone, right?"
As a former member of the Eagle Group, Guts had obviously seen a lot of the world. At least he had seen the faces of the nobles of the Kingdom of Midland and knew how big the gap in identity and status was between the king and the common people.
"Here! This is a token and a bag of gold coins. It should be enough to cover your expenses on the journey."
Serpico's first impression of Guts was undoubtedly terrible. He didn't even want to say a word and just threw the things he brought over.
As a subconscious first reaction, Guts used his other prosthetic iron hand to catch the leather bag thrown by the other party, then put away the Dragon Slaying Sword, opened it and took a look, and found an exquisite badge inside, and more than 400 gold coins of excellent quality.
You have to know that a few years ago when he was a mercenary alone, killing powerful enemies and helping the noble lord win the war, the reward he received was only a small bag of silver coins.
But now, someone actually spent enough money to allow most people to live a comfortable life just to see him.
Especially the exquisite emblem that represents noble status, which is definitely not something that any low-ranking noble is qualified to use.
Just based on these two points, Guts basically believed it, and immediately raised his head and asked, "What do I need to do to meet His Majesty Roald I?"
“It’s very simple.
You just need to arrive at the area under his rule, then find the local officials or army and show the token, and they will naturally send someone to escort you to the palace.
Well, I have told you everything I need to tell you. If there is nothing else, I will go back.
Remember to be respectful to His Majesty King Roald I.
He has a bad temper and his swordsmanship is terrifying."
After saying this, Serpico glanced at the apostle who had just been killed and whose body was scattered on the ground, then rode on his horse and planned to leave this damn place as soon as possible.
As a very sensitive person, he could sense that these monsters were definitely coming for him, so he decided to keep a distance from these dangerous elements.
"Wait! If you don't mind, can you tell me about this King Roald I? I'm very curious about him."
Guts called out from behind the fox-faced young man who gave him a big gift when they first met.
But Serpico showed no intention of stopping, and climbed onto the horse's back, and then whispered back: "I'm sorry, I don't know much.
All I can tell you is that according to rumors he comes from a country on the other side of the ocean, with facial features that are completely different from ours, and black hair and black eyes.
He is very powerful, as powerful as a monster, perhaps even more powerful than the apostles you killed.
If he wanted to kill me, I probably wouldn't be able to withstand even one strike.
Oh, by the way, in the process of launching wars and conquests, he would kill all the original nobles and kings, and then distribute the land to the poor.
So everything will be very different within the scope of his rule.
Most importantly, he put a lot of emphasis on the development of gunpowder weapons, and created cannons that were much larger and more powerful than the cannon you have in your hand."
As the last word came out of his mouth, Serpico squeezed the horse's belly hard, then trotted away from this troubled place.
Guts, who stayed where he was, remained silent for a long time, his eyes became extremely terrifying.
Because of Zuo Si's actions, he couldn't help but think of another person, that is, his former captain and best friend, and now his sworn enemy - Griffith.
For the next few days, Gus hesitated whether to go to the appointment.
After careful consideration, he finally spent a large sum of money to buy a horse and some food supplies in a town, and turned around to head west.
But what he didn't know was that from this moment on, his destiny had deviated from its original trajectory and began to develop in an unknown direction.
As a fish jumping out of the water, he was not originally under the control of the law of causality of the God of the Abyss, otherwise he should have been killed like the other members of the Eagle Group during the sacrifice.
However, it remains to be seen whether falling into the hands of the great devil Zuo Si is a good thing or a bad thing.
After all, Zuo Si's goal was not to destroy the God of the Abyss, but to devour it and become one with it...
