Chapter 285 Mysterious Gaze (1)
Anthony Andre.
The guardian of the destiny of the city of Larnaca.
After not seeing him for several months, his strength has improved significantly compared to before.
Back then, Anthony Andre was just a practitioner who had just entered the legendary realm, but now he has become a legendary three-star existence.
It doesn't sound too exaggerated, but you have to know that in the Dusk Continent, after the legendary level, each star level upgrade is extremely difficult. To upgrade from one star to three stars in a few months is an absolutely impossible feat without great opportunity.
However, Anthony Andre looked a little weird at this moment. Although he looked like an ordinary old man, his left arm was obviously unusually thick, and so were his legs. Combined with his skinny right arm and hunched body, there was a weird disharmony.
Even when facing the three great masters Antonio, Hercules and Holt, Anthony Andre's eyes did not show much vigilance, nor any admiration. There was even a hint of arrogance in his eyes, as if Holt's identity as King and the three men's strength far exceeded his, were not worth mentioning in his eyes.
He moved his body and walked towards the three people. As his legs moved, they made a creaking sound as metal rubbed against each other.
His right arm and both legs are all forged from metal?
Holt raised his eyelids. He was well-informed, but he had no idea what this method was.
"Who exactly are you?" Holt asked in a deep voice. Although the strength of this strange old man was only three-star legendary, Holt couldn't figure him out at first glance.
I'm afraid this person's strength doesn't match the realm he has displayed.
This made Holt feel like cursing. Damn it, what on earth was going on? Why were there more and more of these inexplicable masters?
This person appeared so mysteriously that even Holt found it difficult to judge whether he was a friend or an enemy for a moment, but Holt still subconsciously tensed his body. There were too many bad things happening recently. Even when facing an existence that was far inferior to himself, Holt was still cautious. After all, none of these things that suddenly appeared were easy to deal with.
Anthony Andre finally stopped when he was about ten meters away from Holt. He glanced at Holt, Antonio, and Hercules with a hint of disdain in his eyes. After a pause, he spoke: "I am Anthony Andre."
Andre Holt frowned slightly: "Are you also a descendant of a saint?"
Anthony snorted, his expression becoming more mocking: "A mere saint, he is just a son-in-law of our Andre family."
"The family I belong to is the real Andre family, the main family, the descendant of the saintly Adams, but it is just a branch. I hope Mr. Holt can make this clear."
Holt and the other two looked at each other, and they could see the shock in each other's eyes.
A saint, but just a son-in-law? My goodness, is this guy crazy? If this news gets out, it will be enough to cause a shock to the world.
However, looking at the appearance of Anthony in front of him, he didn't seem to be lying, and Holt really couldn't judge for a moment.
Anthony seemed to have seen some concerns in Holt's heart. He cleared his throat and spoke again: "Mr. Holt, you can rest assured. I am too lazy to get involved in the conflict between you and the branch family. I came here this time just to make a deal with you."
"Deal?" Holt raised his eyebrows.
"That's right. We all have a common enemy, so this deal can be done." Anthony finally forced a smile on his face.
Holt's eyes narrowed into slits: "The common enemy you mentioned, could it be... the prophet, Ron?"
"Prophet? Humph, a pariah who should have died a long time ago is worthy of the title of prophet?" Anthony's face, which had just improved a little, suddenly became ugly: "Mr. Holt, don't say such things in the future. In the Dusk Continent, the real prophet only exists in the Andre family. All other prophets are fake."
Although Holt was somewhat unhappy with Anthony's domineering and arrogant attitude, he was secretly shocked in his heart. Just from his words, he could roughly judge that this so-called Andre family leader was probably an incredible behemoth.
Anthony was too lazy to explain too much and continued, "Your Excellency should know that Ron had his heart removed in Larnaca City and died."
Holt nodded slightly.
"Then do you know who took out his heart?"
Holt's eyes suddenly shrank: "Could it be..."
"Yes, it's me." Anthony raised his head proudly. "I have accepted the destiny and will eliminate all those who disobey it. Ron is one of them. On that day, in the church of the Dawn Goddess Church branch, I personally took out his heart. I thought Ron was dead, but I didn't expect that this guy actually had some sneaky tricks that allowed him to survive even after his heart was taken out."
"But, no matter what, this Ron is someone I must kill. I failed to kill him last time, but instead made him stronger. It would be a bit troublesome to take action now."
"That's why I came here to cooperate with you."
Tsk.
Holt was disdainful in his heart. You talked so arrogantly, but in the end, you still couldn't handle it yourself, so you needed to find help?
I thought you were some big shot who could kill Ron by yourself.
Of course, even though he was disdainful in his heart, Holt's cunningness would not let him show it: "That's great. If I can get Mr. Anthony's help, I will definitely be able to kill Ron this time."
"I am also preparing to contact experts from all sides. I wonder how much force Mr. Anthony can arrange?"
Anthony said: "In addition to me, there are two other guardians of destiny brought from my family."
"Also, you don't need to worry about the descendants of the saints. As long as the family gives an order, no matter what conflicts they had before, they will just obey."
This is really good news.
Guardian of Destiny? This title sounds awesome.
This is equivalent to having three more legendary masters out of thin air. There is no need for Augustus to bow down to him. As long as he can deal with other forces, it will be enough to form an unprecedentedly powerful force!
There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!
"Of course..." Just as Holt was thinking, Anthony Andre's voice sounded again: "After killing Ron, our Andre family will take half of all the treasures that Ron has looted from the Dragon Valley and the Temple of Dusk."
Holt's pupils suddenly contracted. Good fellow, this so-called Andre family is a little too greedy. So many masters, so many forces are planning together, and you want to take away half of it before it's even started. Even a rich landlord would not be as greedy as you.
"How do you know that Ron has the dragon's treasure?"
Anthony smiled proudly: "I said that the Andre family is the only prophet. We know everything."
"Okay, that's all I have to say. Next, I will go to the branch family, and you should finish your business as soon as possible."
These words can be said to be extremely arrogance, and he did not take Holt, the so-called king, seriously at all. The tone of his words was completely commanding.
Holt did not show any dissatisfaction with Anthony's attitude at all. It was not until Anthony left that Holt's expression gradually became gloomy.
"Your Majesty, are you really planning to cooperate with this man?" Antonio couldn't help but ask. Perhaps because their names were similar, he had absolutely no good feelings towards Anthony. His condescending attitude was even more disgusting.
Holt smiled grimly. "The most important goal now is to kill Ron. As long as this goal can be achieved, anything is fine. As for dividing the spoils after killing Ron... ahem, I mean, the spoils. If the Andre family wants to take half of the spoils, it depends on whether others agree. Do you think Dominic, Apu and others will be so generous?"
“By then, I’m afraid that this so-called Andre family will have money but no life to spend it.”
"Let's go and take a look at Dominic first. That old guy is very ambitious. I'm afraid he won't miss this great opportunity to make a fortune."
After saying this, Holt took the two people beside him and headed to the headquarters of the Magic Association.
On the other side, Ron has arrived at the Dawn Goddess Headquarters... In the game, this is the most important area, with countless tasks, various treasure chests, and even a lot of advanced skills to learn.
Even though he had seen it countless times in the game, when the headquarters of the Church of the Goddess of Dawn actually appeared in front of Ron, he still couldn't help but feel amazed.
As expected of a building that has been passed down for thousands of years, even though it has undergone dozens of repairs, it is still majestic, ancient, and filled with a mysterious and holy atmosphere.
A building that towers into the clouds, like an ancient castle, with a stone pillar on top reaching into the sky, should be the headquarters' sanctuary. In front of the sanctuary is the headquarters' main church, which is broad and grand. The walls of the church are carved with murals symbolizing a mysterious atmosphere, and the symbol of the goddess of dawn, Ostara, is almost everywhere.
In front of the cathedral is a high wall, and above the wall are 360 statues. Each statue is an apostle, saint, or sage who once appeared in the Church of the Goddess of Dawn.
Just as Ron was admiring the holiness and grandeur of the headquarters of the Church of the Goddess of Dawn, he suddenly felt someone was watching him.
His heart trembled slightly. Ever since he knew that there was a being who controlled fate in the Dusk Continent, Ron had become very sensitive to all kinds of attention.
Who is looking at me this time?
