Chapter 32: Peeping into the Key to Destiny (2)
Originally, Ron didn't plan to kill Herman so quickly. After all, this was a good experience pack.
But now, Ron has changed his mind.
Hermann, who was originally not worth mentioning, will increase his strength at an extremely fast rate after being parasitized by the young eggs.
Having experienced the disaster in the game, Ron knows the horror of the black beast better than anyone else.
As long as Ron determined that the threat posed by leaving Herman alive was more terrifying than the punishment from the Church of the Goddess of Dawn and the revenge from the people behind him, then Ron would kill Herman without hesitation.
At the same time, a thought flashed through Ron's mind: Such a drastic change in Hermann's fate, does this mean that he has become a chess piece in the convergence of the world line?
Just like... Partridge? He grabbed the Dark Bible in his right hand. Although a random punch should be enough to blow Herman's head off, Ron was still ready to use the power of knowledge to double the damage to ensure that Herman would die cleanly.
Without any hesitation, the Dark Bible smashed towards Hermann's head.
Hermann, who was originally stubborn, had his eyes wide open and exuded a strong sense of fear. He just wanted to pretend to be cool and save face.
They are just like a bunch of thugs who will utter some harsh words after a fight even if they lose. They want to act like real men and even though they have lost all face, they still want to maintain their pitiful dignity.
After all, this is the church of the Dawn Goddess Church. No matter how arrogant a guy is, he would never dare to kill people here at will.
However, he didn't expect that he would meet a real madman.
"Spare his life!"
Seeing that the Dark Bible was getting closer and closer to Hermann's forehead, as if it would smash Hermann into a paste in the next second, a hoarse voice suddenly came from a distance.
Ron's eyes narrowed slightly; he knew who the voice belonged to.
But the Dark Bible still did not stop.
On the contrary, Ron even increased his strength, trying to kill Herman before the obstacle arrived.
But at this moment, a breeze blew Ron's long hair on his forehead.
The wind was very gentle, but it contained a force that even Ron could hardly resist. His body tilted involuntarily and his steps were forced to stagger.
Advanced wind magic, a breeze blowing on the face! The Dark Bible almost brushed against Herman's body and fell to the ground.
Boom boom...
The moment the Dark Bible hit the ground, the entire church backyard shook three times.
Immediately afterwards, Hermann, who was close at hand, was blown away and rolled in the air.
After a long time, there was a loud bang and it fell heavily to the ground.
A faint cracking sound could be heard, as if a few more bones were broken, probably the thigh bones. The pale bone stumps poked through the skin, and it was bloody, looking a bit creepy.
The right arm was twisted in a weird way, almost like a pretzel, and the bones inside were obviously all broken.
I don't know how many bone fragments pierced into the flesh and internal organs.
It might hurt a little! Herman opened his mouth desperately, but no sound came out. He didn't even have the strength to crawl on the ground. His body trembled and twitched from time to time as if he had been electrocuted.
With its mouth open, it kept spitting out blood foam mixed with internal organ fragments.
In just a short moment, the blood covered the whole body.
All in all, it's a bit miserable.
With this injury, anyone else would have died long ago, but the black beast cub that was parasitized by the eggs had a vitality that was morbid, and this was a church, so the last thing it needed was priests.
Unfortunately... He couldn't kill Herman. Ron sighed with some regret. He was a little annoyed that he should have used more force to slap Herman to death. However, this regret was only fleeting. If Herman really became a pawn of fate, he would not be killed easily. Even if he tried his best, there would definitely be some accidents that would stop him.
Shaking his head, Ron looked forward: "Brother Virgil, what are you doing?"
It was Virgil who stopped Ron from killing Hermann.
In fact, Virgil had already arrived...
Virgil had been watching Herman being beaten up, and had no intention of stopping it. He even watched it with great joy. He was the one who laughed the loudest...
After all, Herman, relying on his father, looked down on everyone and offended many people. Even though Virgil was originally a clergyman of the vice-pope faction, he did not have any good feelings towards this so-called young master.
However, when Ron really wanted to kill Herman, Virgil could not sit idly by. As the current branch head, if Herman died, he would definitely not have a good ending.
Walking up to Ron and taking a look at the place where Hermann had been originally, Virgil's heart skipped a beat. That place was now a huge pit with a diameter of more than two meters and a depth of nearly one meter.
The stone slabs on the ground were all shattered into pieces.
Virgil's lips twitched slightly. If he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, who would have believed that this huge hole was made by smashing a book? Those who knew him knew that Ron was a wizard and that his profession in the church was a priest. Those who didn't know him thought he was an iron-blooded warrior. His strength was so exaggerated!
Even a catastrophic seven-star expert like him might not be able to withstand the blow from the Dark Bible just now.
Virgil quietly wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and smiled bitterly: "Brother Ron, I want to ask you, you don't really want to kill someone in the church in front of everyone, do you?"
Virgil deliberately emphasized the words "church" and "in public".
There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!
He thought his brother was an idiot. Even if he really wanted to kill someone, he would have found a secret place where not many people were watching. Didn't he even understand this? Ron shrugged his shoulders and said, "I swear to God, he asked me to kill him. I have never heard of such a strange request in my life."
"If we really kill Herman, we'll be in trouble." Virgil rubbed his forehead bitterly: "Do you know what the oath Herman took to join the church was called?"
"What?"
Virgil spread his hands: "My deputy pope father!"
After a brief pause, Virgil exhaled again: "Forget it, I will help you deal with the matter here, and try to suppress it. I hope it won't cause too much trouble."
For Virgil, the decision was not easy.
Although in Ron's opinion, this man was a cunning and treacherous old man, but Ron was still somewhat touched that he could do this for him.
"Excuse me, brother. By the way, brother Virgil, if you still have time, please help me find my notebook. I think I lost it when I was kidnapped by the Eternal Freedom Sect. The contents in it are very important."
Virgil's eyes narrowed slightly: "Could it be related to... the prophecy?"
Ron's lips trembled slightly. It was really just an ordinary notebook, and it might just record some of Ron's daily life. But... Ron finally nodded heavily and said shamelessly, "That's right."
Virgil looked solemn. Ron's notebook might record the future of the world. It was of great importance and he had to find it as soon as possible.
After giving some instructions, Ron walked straight out the backyard door.
"Where are you going?" Virgil's voice came from behind. He was afraid that Ron would cause trouble again.
"library."
Ron wants to investigate something about Archibald and Partridge.
Although Cecilia had read books and knew some history, it was certainly not as detailed as recorded in history books.
Ron was particularly curious about Archibald. He wondered what kind of legacy this predecessor, who traveled to the Dusk Continent thousands of years earlier than himself, had left for the world.
What did he discover that eventually led to him going crazy?
"Your Excellency, please spare some time in the next few days. I have something very important to discuss with you." Ron said quietly after taking another look at the half-dead Herman.
Suddenly, a barely perceptible smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.
This seems to be a key that can unlock the transmission route of the black beast eggs! The world line converged, rewriting Herman's fate and creating considerable trouble for Ron, but... at the same time, it also left a flaw that might be able to peek into fate!
