Chapter 165: Kill Him (1)
In fact, Ron had no doubt that Dolores was the 474th daughter of Holt.
In the game, Dolores appears as the eldest princess.
In the subsequent plot, and in all the unearthed documents, letters, and NPC conversations, there is no explicit or even implicit indication that Dolores is not Holt's daughter.
But now, think about it carefully, not saying it doesn’t mean there is no problem.
After all, Dolores is so beautiful, virtuous, and kind. Look at Holt the 474th, he is ugly, twisted, cruel, vicious, and perverted.
Are they father and daughter? Who are they kidding? How could Holt have given birth to such an outstanding daughter? Think about it again, Dolores's older brother Antoine is portrayed in the game as despicable, cruel and cunning.
Dolores's second brother Nicol was also not a good person. When competing for the position of king, he poisoned Antoine 27 times and assassinated him 32 times...
Dolores doesn't fit in among the entire Holt family because she is not perverted enough.
Ron muttered in his heart: Holt the 474th must have been tricked.
I guess there are more than one, maybe a huge pile of them.
This was just a bunch of random thoughts in Ron's mind. Everyone continued to move forward. The closer they got to the depths of the mountain, the stronger the resentment they could feel.
Ron originally thought that it might be troublesome or even dangerous to subdue these evil spirits.
However, perhaps the pressure brought by the hearts of the Dragon Girl, the Moon Goddess, and the Dawn Goddess was too exaggerated. After sensing these auras, the evil spirits wandering in the back mountain did not dare to attack Ron, Lydia and others.
Some evil spirits turned around and ran away immediately when they saw the few people.
Holt the 474th had obviously set up some restrictions here. No matter how these evil spirits fled, they could not escape from the back mountain.
The group was searching in the eerie back hills when suddenly Lydia stopped.
This was the sensitivity of being a witch of the dead. She could feel a strong attraction and her body involuntarily moved to the left, where there was also a thick layer of fallen leaves, not much different from other places.
Lydia pursed her lips, squatted down, stretched out her hand to push away the fallen leaves on the ground layer by layer, and a finger bone appeared in front of Lydia.
There were messy bones everywhere here, but when Lydia saw this finger bone, she was suddenly shocked.
This finger bone was obviously different from the other bones. It did not show the paleness caused by being dead for too long and being exposed to wind and sun.
The entire bone was extremely smooth, and perhaps because of the moonlight overhead, the finger bones even sparkled with a crystal-like luster.
Lydia's throat moved slightly, and she continued to push away all the fallen leaves around her. A complete skeleton appeared in front of her, all white. It was not as gloomy and scary as ordinary skeletons. At first glance, it even had a kind of weird beauty, as if it was a work of art carved out of exquisite jade.
Lydia felt the dryness in her throat becoming stronger.
A legendary master.
This is the posture that a legendary master would display after his death.
If this kind of skeleton can be refined into a necromancer... then...
Lydia took a deep breath, suppressed the restlessness in her heart, and tried to take the remains away, but at this moment, with a snap, five white finger bones suddenly grabbed Lydia's wrist.
Lydia was slightly startled and subconsciously glanced at Ron next to her.
Compared to Lydia, the undead witch, Ron's performance was quite calm. He knew that the remains of such masters, after a long time, often possessed some special powers.
For some beings, the destructive power of their remains after death is even comparable to that of true masters.
It was Lydia's vision that enabled her to find the remains, but whether she could subdue the remains depended on her own ability.
These remains, under the tempering of time, may even give birth to self-consciousness. The so-called self-consciousness is actually the strong resentment before death, which has been entangled in the remains, persisting for a long time and gradually evolving.
They are not evil spirits, but they are more brutal than evil spirits.
"Don't worry, I'll take care of everything," said Ron.
"Infiltrate your consciousness and try to communicate with that guy to see if this resentful spirit has any unfulfilled wishes."
Most likely he wanted to kill Holt the 474th.
Lydia was somewhat suspicious. She was the first one to obtain the Book of the Dead, but it seemed that the owner knew more about it than she did.
Although she was confused, Ron's words clearly made Lydia feel more at ease. She suppressed the panic that suddenly grew in her heart, took a deep breath, and tried to penetrate her consciousness.
In this situation, you usually try to communicate first. If communication fails, then suppress them by force. If suppression by force fails, then you can only run away... Although in most cases you can't run away, after all, if you can't suppress the other party, you will most likely be swallowed up by the other party.
Of course, with Ron watching over them, he wouldn't let that happen.
This was a rather long process. With the cold wind blowing and the gloomy aura here, Ron's body was shaking unconsciously.
Half an hour had passed, and Lydia's communication with the other party had not yet ended. Instead, two balls of scarlet light gradually emerged from the remains' eye sockets.
It was obvious that Lydia's communication was not so smooth. The resentment in the remains did not believe that Lydia had the ability to take revenge, or rather, the resentment wanted to occupy Lydia's body and take revenge personally.
Ron could feel that this resentment had even begun to erode Lydia's consciousness, and the little witch's face turned slightly pale.
This is normal. Although she is an undead witch, she has not yet broken through the legendary level. It is not an easy task to subdue the resentment of the legendary level.
Ron curled his lips and slowly walked to the side of the remains and squatted down. Although he couldn't help much, he could do what he wanted... For example, he could use a healing spell or something like that.
A bright white light emerged in Ron's palm, and the faint light of healing magic even slightly dispelled the coldness around him.
The moment the healing light appeared, the red light in the remains' eye sockets suddenly flickered slightly, and it was instinctively afraid.
But it won't give in so easily.
Then, the healing spell turned into the hammer of judgment.
The huge hammer, which was flashing with dazzling light, was caught by Ron's hands and suspended above the remains.
The next moment, the red light in the remains' eye sockets suddenly grew stronger. It was enraged by Ron and wanted to resist... Then, the next second, the red light in its eye sockets suddenly disappeared.
There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!
There is no way. Although it has given birth to resentment, it is ultimately just a pile of old bones. If the hammer comes down, all the ashes will be scattered.
The finger bones holding Lydia's wrist also loosened.
Although it's just a trace of resentment, it's still smart.
Lydia breathed a sigh of relief, gave Ron a look of gratitude, and then took the remains away.
In the end, including the baby, Lydia selected thirteen evil spirits here, and carefully selected thirteen remains to take away, preparing to refine them into necromancers.
The owner of these remains was a magician with great talent and strength when he was alive, so it is most appropriate for them to be trained into necromancers.
Of course, Lydia did not give nothing. She promised these dead souls that if there was a chance in the future, she might be able to let them take revenge with their own hands.
This promise would make it easier for Lydia to refine evil spirits and necromancers. Otherwise, the struggle and resistance of the evil spirits would likely lead to the failure of the refining process, and even if the refining was successful, there would likely be many defects.
As for Holt the 474th, Lydia knew very well that her master would have to confront him sooner or later, and she would certainly have to take part in it.
This revenge is not just empty talk.
Thirteen evil spirits, thirteen necromancers, three of whose remains were all sparkling with crystal luster. When the Hammer of Judgment stopped above their foreheads, the resentment in these three remains voluntarily signed a contract with Lydia.
This did not reach Lydia's limit. She had to reserve some of her mental power to see if there would be a chance to obtain a skull dragon in the future.
Originally, after subduing these evil spirits and remains, tonight's goal would be achieved, and the next step would be to evacuate.
But at this point, Ron didn't want to leave.
After all, the bastard Holt 474 actually wanted to marry off his woman Dolores. If Ron didn't teach Holt 474 a lesson, he would never be able to get over it. No man could stand it.
Of course, Holt 474 is still very powerful.
Although he had a Moon Goddess on his side, she was... confused and stupid, so Ron couldn't expect her to exert much combat power.
There is a dragon girl, but she is seriously injured and has no strength left.
The only ones who can really fight are him, Lydia and Charlene. It would be difficult for the three of them to deal with Anthony alone, let alone His Majesty the King.
The old man, Holt the 474th, is very afraid of death, and he is always accompanied by two legendary masters.
If you insist on doing it, it will be no different from seeking death.
But...if I remember correctly, this guy seems to have a small treasury.
It's not the royal treasury, that place is heavily guarded.
It is the private treasury of the 474th Holt... It contains all the wealth that King Holt has secretly amassed in his lifetime.
Do you want to go and get him? "Hey..." Ron suddenly turned around and looked at Lydia and Charlene, his eyes flashing with light, which made Charlene and Lydia shudder: "Do you want to go to the palace?"
The smile on his face was even more creepy.
They knew that when their master showed this kind of expression, he must be planning something very bad in his mind.
He wants to cheat people again.
