Dust of History Chapter 24:


Aiyimei let out a sound of surprise with Talis next to her. It goes without saying that the temple knights have extensive knowledge. Knowledge and vision are also one of the prerequisites for knights. The things in Celeste's reference room Naturally, everything is available, so she can recognize most of these specimens and souvenirs.

Not only that, she seems to see the extraordinary value of these small things more than Ah, the collections in Celeste are all superb, and there are complete explanations from experienced naturalists, all of which make her The resolution can even see many details that Asa doesn't know.

"This Mimura Sa's hair has red scales, at least she is still a tribal chief... These should be the nails of a wyvern... These are difficult things to deal with. An adventurer Have these collections? I don’t think there may be any in Erasia’s Kingdom Collection Hall.”

"Hey, come and have a look." Talis picked up two things and called Asa over. Her voice had changed from surprise to calm.

A kind of surprise reached a certain limit, and became the composure only when shocked and guarded.

"This is the eye of a savage bull in the Lizard Swamp. You know it." Taliss left hand is a fist-sized eyeball, which looks like a strange toy after special treatment, and the huge pupil on it is black. Reflect the figure of the person.

"I know, it's still the eyes of an old man." Asa nodded. Only the pupils of the old bulls will slowly turn black.

"It's not just the eyes of an old bull, it's the eyes of the strongest old bull. In other words, it should be the eyes of a king of bulls. You can see that the pupils have completely turned black, and there are magic waves coming out. This kind of bull king is said to be able to use sight to produce effects similar to necromancy. Their eyeballs are also necessary for making necromancy magic scrolls. This kind of bull king is extremely difficult to catch. I remember it seems like Lian Selai There is only one ster."

Asa frowned. He knew that this was indeed the eyeball that had been randomly placed here for more than ten years. It seemed that any passing villager could secretly open the door and take it away when the owner was away. A rare magic item with only one. But with his current perception, he could also detect the faint magic fluctuations on the eyeball.

"Preserving this kind of eyeball is not just a simple antiseptic method. It must be instilled with magic power at intervals to ensure that the necromantic magic in it will not be exhausted... What needs to be instilled is also necromantic magic... .”

Asa's eyes twitched. He could tell it wasn't nonsense. Talis didn't seem to have any reason to talk nonsense.

"And this thing. I'm sure it shouldn't be an adventurer's land." Talis's voice became colder, and she had a half cane on her right hand.

"Well, this... seems to be just half of a very ordinary walking stick." Asa replied. This is indeed just a half cane.

Although the wood is very good and the workmanship is very fine, there is no magic wave or any strange smell. When he was young, he played with it more than once in his hand, used it to scratch an itch, and took it to poke a bird's nest. . . It's too familiar.

"Let me tell you. In Celeste's showroom, the upper half of this cane is placed on the highest altar. This is the cane owned by the last pope, His Majesty Durken." Talis The voice trembled a little.

Asa and Aiyimei were completely stunned.

"Could it be sister, you are wrong?" This is Ai Yimei asking. It was also hard for her to believe that the cane of the previous pope could be seen in an open wooden house in a small village.

"This wood is the wood core of a thousand-year-old elf tree, and the patterns and broken lines on it are also completely in line with the broken lines of the upper half of the scepter in Celeste. I can't remember it wrong, because Magnus His Majesty used this to click on my forehead. He awarded me the title of Templar Knight."

Asa forced a smile: "Oh, I didn't expect that the thing I used to scratch my back when I was a child would have such a history... This collection of my mother-in-law is really..."

"Do you know another reason why I remember this thing so clearly?" Talis interrupted Asa's words with a frozen face. Spit out word by word.

"The greatest ideal of every Templar Knight is to arrest the murderer who assassinated the last Pope Durken."

The somewhat forced smile on Asa's face also completely cooled down. He knew that it was unlikely that anyone would be willing to imitate this thing. Also, he now knew why it felt weird to be here again.

Nothing has changed here, what has changed is my vision. before that. Even after spending more than ten years in this cabin, he still didn't see the extraordinary in this seemingly ordinary cabin, or he didn't have the ability and eyesight to see it at that time.

The location of this room, the size of the room, the direction of the door, the distance between the two cabinets, the location... and the location and arrangement of all the things in the wooden house are actually the most reasonable and cautious It allows the owner to make the fastest response in any situation and any position.

This should not be done deliberately. After all, this is just an undefended small wooden house. Never let your guard down.

If the current Asa is allowed to decorate his own wooden house, it may be almost the same as this small wooden house.

"But didn't you hear that His Majesty the last Pope Deccan died of illness twenty years ago?" Ai Yimei asked.

"It's not that he died of illness. The night before his sudden death, His Majesty Deken personally killed three assassins who assassinated him without using magic. Even without magic, his skill was enough to rank among the top ten in the mainland at that time However, he was assassinated on the way to the Ainfast Empire. However, this fact cannot be known to outsiders, so it was announced that His Majesty Durken died of a sudden illness."

"Although this matter has been going on for twenty years, it is still the largest case in the history of the church. I have only heard about these things. But His Majesty Magnus has used His Majesty Durken's This half of the cane is used as a prop to bestow the title of Temple Knight. I believe that everyone, including me, who became a Temple Knight after being instructed by this scepter, has already regarded this as their ultimate goal. This must be The intention of His Majesty Magnus."

Talis's hand holding the scepter was trembling slightly, the weight of this thing was too heavy for her, or any temple knight.

"But I can guarantee that if you tell Magnus what you saw here, the first thing he will do is kill you with his own hands."

This was not Asa, let alone Ai Yimei. It was a thin, clean old woman with long brown hair who said this. She was standing by the door, smiling and looking at the three uninvited guests in her room, holding a bag of bread on her chest.

Including Asa, no one found out how she appeared.

"I knew you would come sometime, but I didn't expect you to bring two such beautiful girls with you." The old woman looked at Talis and Ai Yimei, smile. "One is a very talented water magician, and the other is actually a temple knight."

The old woman came over and patted Asa on the back and said, "Little Sa, you have grown up."

"Grandma, you are back." Asa smiled and nodded.

Although Talis didn't draw her sword, and didn't take any precautions, her aura was disturbed and tense. Although the person in front of her looked like an ordinary old woman without the slightest threat, she knew that this was also an enemy she couldn't deal with.

Even if she is staring and paying attention now, she feels that her perception and attention are completely unable to concentrate, and she is locked on this person.

"Little girl, take it easy. Would the temple knights draw their swords against an old man who has no strength to restrain a chicken?" Grandma Al put down her pocket on the table and took out the bread and some daily necessities~ IndoMTL.com~ Her expression is very relaxed and peaceful, she is indeed an old woman who just came home from shopping.

"I have reason to believe that you will never be powerless, but I dare to draw my sword against you..." Talis said the truth. Even at such a close distance, the opponent was so defenseless, but she knew very well that no matter what she did with the sword, it would definitely fail. The seemingly ordinary old woman in front of her seemed to be a phantom formed by phantoms, and also seemed to be a monster existing independently in a special space, which could jump into the void and disappear at any time. Of course, the fatal blow of backlash can also reappear from anywhere.

"However, I hope you can tell me, who are you? Why is the half scepter of His Majesty Durken here? And... what do you mean by what you just said?"

Asa hesitated for a while and said nothing. He also wanted to know these things just now, and he also knew that Talis was no longer that reckless and reckless personality.

"You don't need to know who I am. That thing is just a souvenir of my last commission, and I can tell you that Magnus knows that this half of the scepter is in my hand. And I think he also No temple knight will be allowed to know the truth of this matter, so you better not inquire about unnecessary things.” Granny Al smiled at Talis faintly, then looked at Asa and asked: “Why, Don't you have something important to find me?"
