GOR Chapter 71: Number One Under The Starry Sky
Everyone, please help me buy some tickets … … Thank you ~
No matter how you look at it, Hussain is definitely not a good companion.
Du Wei had been with him for a whole day. They had prepared everything. Du Wei used a knife to cut down some branches and made a snowboard. Then, he placed the unconscious Hussain on the snowboard – don't expect Hussain to drag the snowboard. That is impossible. Knight's body was covered with wounds. It was unknown what kind of body his body was made of. Du Wei only took a few glances at him and he couldn't help but feel the urge to vomit. Those wounds were too horrifying! In many places, the flesh and blood had been torn open, revealing the eerie white bones inside! There were also some wounds that emitted a burnt smell. However, they were tightly wrapped with layers of cloth.
The most horrifying part was Hussain's lower abdomen. There was a black fist sized wound there. It was unknown what had caused the wound. It was probably some kind of magic. The muscles around the wound had turned completely black. Even those black muscles were still slowly wriggling, healing bit by bit … but as they healed, there were also faint crackling sounds coming from within the muscles!
The wound repeatedly healed and then burst open again! One could only imagine what kind of pain this was.
As Hussain was bandaging the wound, he explained: This wound was left behind by the Chief Judge of the Shrines. It was a type of magic corrosion. Even the holy water could not heal it. In order to heal it, a great magician would need to spend a lot of magic to cast a top level healing spell on him.
The strength of the Chief Judge of the Shrines was not to be underestimated. The wound left behind by the Chief Judge almost cost Hussain his life. If not for the fact that Hussain's strength was close to that of Paladin's, allowing him to use dou qi to heal wounds to a certain extent … …
But it was because of this that Knight was in so much pain. He had to constantly circulate his Fighting Aura to heal his wounds, and the wounds themselves were also corroding and bursting apart under the damage from the magic.
In this way, a delicate balance was formed, but Hussain was in "fresh pain" every moment.
A person, with a body full of terrifying scars, walking in this damned world of ice and snow for so long, enduring pain that could make a person collapse … But Hussain's face was cold and indifferent. Except for the occasional flash of pain in his eyes, he didn't even make a sound. When he walked, he tried his best to straighten his back.
This person's character was extraordinarily tenacious.
Under such circumstances, it was understandable for him to have a bad temper.
Even in his previous life, when Du Wei had a toothache, he would be irritable and easily angered. What's more, this Knight's body was constantly suffering from that degree of pain? It was already amazing for him to be able to endure and not have a mental breakdown.
Du Wei tried his best not to provoke this guy who was like a fiery bucket. He silently pulled the sled and followed Knight through the snow.
They followed the Great Circle Lake all the way north. The further north they went, the stronger the wind became. Du Wei had already pulled up the collar of his fur coat and a fur hat, covering most of his face. Only a pair of eyes were exposed, but the wind was still blowing so hard that it was almost impossible to open them.
He couldn't even open his mouth to speak. As soon as he opened his mouth, a gust of wind would immediately sweep the snowflakes into his mouth.
Almost completely instinctively, Du Wei walked behind Hussain. Hussain's tall body blocked a bit of the wind for Du Wei.
Walking in the snow was extraordinarily physically taxing. The two rested twice in between, Du Wei took a knife and ran to the side to chop down trees to make a fire for warmth. During this time, Hussain didn't say a word. He just sat there silently with his eyes closed. Occasionally, his body would circulate a trace of Dou Qi.
Du Wei knew that this Knight was using Dou Qi to suppress his injuries and warm himself at the same time.
This was like drinking poison to quench one's thirst. Even if Du Wei wasn't a doctor, he was still a knowledgeable alchemist. He could see that this Knight's injuries were very bad. His body was almost on the verge of collapse. Using Dou Qi to suppress the pain could only be endured for a while, but it would continue to worsen the injury.
But what could be done?
"Why don't you use holy water?" Du Wei sighed. "I still have some here. The old man left it before he left."
Hussain hugged the stick and closed his eyes. "I can't touch holy water. I'm a traitor of the Shrines. I've been cursed. The holy water of the Shrines is indeed good for healing, but because of the curse on my body, not only will it not heal me, but it will also corrode my skin when it comes in contact with the holy water! This is how the Shrines treat traitors. "
Du Wei thought for a while and took out some medicine from his chest. Some of these were left behind by the Old Magician, and some were some magic plants that Du Wei collected while walking in the frozen forest with the Snow Wolf Mercenaries. These were some simple potions that he made himself.
Although he hated this guy, they were now companions. In this damned place, if there was any danger, he might need to rely on this guy to protect him. Du Wei took out some of his own medicine.
Hussain's face became a little more amiable, but his tone was still cold. "Thank you, but there's no need."
He returned the medicine to Du Wei and closed his eyes to rest.
"Why?" Du Wei frowned. "This is something I made. It's a combination of frost moss powder and chikel grass juice. It can heal wounds, and it's the only medicine that can be found in this forest."
Hussain opened his eyes. "No, I said, thank you, but there's no need."
After a pause, the Knight finally added. "The wound on my body was caused by the Ninth Rank Knight's Dou Qi. This kind of injury contains the power of the opponent's Dou Qi, and it can't be healed by ordinary medicine. Unless there's a powerful magician who can dispel the Dou Qi and the curse with a top-level healing spell, I can recover. Otherwise, your medicine will only increase my pain. "
Du Wei was silent.
Think about it … … Think about this Knight's experience. He killed two Chief Knight of the Shrines' Holy Order! Two of the top Shrines' Knight, and a Chief Judge! And then there's the Eighth Rank Knight, as well as several high-level God Paladin!
This was a glorious battle result that made people fearful, but it wasn't hard to imagine that after going through so many bitter battles, the injuries on his body would be severe!
"Perhaps, this will be of some use to you." Du Wei suddenly felt around in his bosom for a while, and pulled out a white fruit like thing.
This thing looked like a lump of ice, but its surface was covered with fine veined patterns. Holding it in his hand, a cool feeling could be felt on his skin, and there was also a faint, light fragrance … … It was just like the mint leaves that Du Wei knew from his previous life.
However, this thing wasn't anything interesting. To many people, it was more frightening than a demon!
This thing's name was:
Ice Berry!
It was the kind of thing that could be used to create hallucinogenic drugs, just like drugs. (Thorskei had once considered whether this thing could be used as a raw material to stimulate people's spiritual energy, but later gave up).
"Ice Berry?" Knight showed a trace of surprise.
"Yes, Ice Berry." Du Wei laughed: "This kind of thing is very hard to find, I just happened to find one on the road. You should know about this thing, it has hallucinogenic ingredients … … However, if you take a little bit, it can be used to relieve pain. You can give it a try, bite a little bit, and take it, it can reduce your pain a little. "
Just like … … opium. Du Wei added in his heart, in his previous world, opium and morphine were both drugs, but they were also used to relieve pain.
There was no distinction between good and bad things, the key was how you used it.
Hussain knew what was good for him, and this time he didn't refuse, perhaps because the pain of these days and nights without rest had already tormented him to the point where he couldn't stand it anymore. He took this Ice Berry, lightly used his fingernails to pry open a little, and put it in his mouth … …
This kind of mysterious thing was really useful, not long after, Knight's tightly knitted eyebrows relaxed a little, and he seemed to let out a sigh of relief. He opened his eyes with a trace of gratification, and his voice was a lot more amiable: "Thank you … … I really do feel a little better. This damned pain has already tormented me to the point where I couldn't sleep for several days. "
After a pause, Hussain looked at Du Wei: "You've also studied magic potions? Nowadays, very few mages spend time studying magic potions, most mages put their energy into magic experiments, and potions … … Only people who can't study magic would study it. "
Du Wei laughed: "Then you're right, I'm a magic potion master. In fact, I don't even have the qualifications to be a mage. "
Hussain didn't find it strange, and said indifferently: "Oh, then what's your relationship with that old fart?"
Old fart? Du Wei felt that this kind of address was very interesting.
"What about you? What's your relationship with him? "Du Wei didn't answer, and asked a question in return.
Hussain was silent, he thought for a moment, and said indifferently: "Nothing, just that, he can be considered my senior brother, our strength comes from the same teacher."
Senior brother?
Du Wei couldn't help but laugh: "I heard you're only thirty years old, right? That old guy is probably a few hundred years old … … You … … "
"No, I'm thirty-one years old this year. That old guy … … God knows how old he is! Hmph. " Hussain didn't seem to want to talk about this topic: "We're just brothers in name, but I actually don't like him." After a pause, he didn't want to talk about this topic, and changed the topic: "What about you? You don't even look fifteen years old, who are you? Why did you come here? "
"It's not that I'm not fifteen years old, it's that I'm not even fourteen years old." Du Wei shrugged: "I'm from the Rollin Clan. Why did I come here … … You'll have to ask that old guy. He's the one who caught me. "
"Rollin Clan …" Hussain thought for a moment, and suddenly laughed. He actually laughed, this guy with a face full of murderous intent, his eyes carrying joy as he looked at Du Wei: "Ah! I seem to have heard of you. You're quite famous in the imperial capital. Rollin Clan's idiot son, a few years ago, the imperial capital's aristocratic circle was talking about you. "
"You've actually heard of me." Du Wei didn't care about the idiot's words in the slightest.
"Yes." Hussain seemed to be immersed in his memories: "Knight Luke's uncle is an aristocrat, I was once invited to his uncle's banquet … … At that time, Luke told me that the biggest news recently was that Earl Raymond's son is an idiot, and his uncle originally wanted to marry Rollin Clan, but after hearing the news, he was so scared that he didn't dare to mention it again. I remember Luke, he … … "
At this point, Hussain suddenly closed his mouth, his eyes flashing with a trace of haze.
Du Wei also didn't dare to say anything, only quietly looking at this Knight.
"Luke … … was killed by me."
After a long time, Hussain suddenly whispered such a sentence.
His cold voice carried a trace of indescribable, bone-deep sorrow. This Knight's eyes flashed with a trace of deep pain, he forcefully shook his head: "Yes, Luke was killed by me, and Knight Hoyt as well. They all died by my sword. "
Du Wei didn't say anything, but Hussain had already turned his gaze to the distance, his voice seemed to be talking to himself: "Oh … … Lord Luke, Lord Hoyt … … and brother Fitt, poor brother Fitt, I was the same age as him, we received training together in the Shrines when we were young, we passed the examination and entered the Holy Order together, he was like a brother to me … … my brother … … but I personally pierced his heart. Let me think, who else … … oh, and Stella, that passionate southerner, he always had a thick southern accent when he prayed, we even laughed at him when we were young … … oh, he was cut in two by my sword! And … … "
Du Wei suddenly saw in surprise, a drop of tear slowly rolling down Hussain's cheek.
"They were all my friends, my brothers, my comrades, we trained together, learned martial arts together, trained together, rode together … … but now they all died by my sword … …" Hussain's eyes began to turn crazy, he suddenly roared: "Why! Why! Do you bloody know why?! "
He suddenly stood up, his bloodshot eyes staring straight at Du Wei as he growled: "Do you know why?! Do you know?! "
"… … I don't know." Du Wei knitted his brows, he realized that there was something wrong with Knight's mental state and he cautiously stepped back.
"Because … … ha ha ha ha … …" Hussain suddenly laughed, his laughter filled with a frivolous tone: "Because! Because of His Majesty Pope! Damn it, His Majesty Pope said 'Oh, this is God's will!', then we'll bleed for blood! Then, they want us to bleed, they want us to die!! It's all because of that damned sentence! That damned sentence 'God's will'! "
"Hussain, Knight." Du Wei said in a heavy voice: "You're too agitated, sit down first."
Hussain cast a deep look at Du Wei. There was a strange look in his eyes, as though there was a trace of … … disorder.
However, he still sat down. This action of his caused Du Wei to feel slightly relieved.
"Hey, kid, do you know why I am being hunted down by the Shrines? Why did I become a traitor to the Shrines? I, Hussain! Since I was 13 years old, everyone in the Knight Guild saw me as the pride of the Shrines! They think that I am the greatest Knight in 100 years! They even think that I will definitely become the Guild Leader of Holy Order in the future! Only Paladin can become the Guild Leader! Holy Order has not had a Guild Leader for 100 years! However, I will definitely become Paladin! I will be the leader of the Shrines' Holy Order! Ha ha! But now, I am being hunted down like a mouse! Hide! "
Hearing Hussain's increasingly violent tone, his eyes grew increasingly chaotic. Du Wei's heart gradually grew uneasy!
Suddenly, his heart skipped a beat!
This is bad!
Looking at the Ice Berry in the knight's hand, which was bitten by a monster!
Du Wei understood where the problem was!
Ice Berry! He had probably taken too much of the Ice Berry! Knight's mind had been affected by the Magic Plant. It was similar to the state of mind of a person who had taken drugs!
Pa!
A clear sound rang out and Du Wei discovered that the tree branch in Knight's hand had been crushed!
"Do you know … … if I could do it all over again … … I would never choose to enter that damned Holy Hall! Damned … … Holy Hall! "Hussain gnashed his teeth.
Holy Hall?
Du Wei knew this name. The Holy Hall was the place of the Shrines, a place dedicated to storing the badges of the deceased God Paladin.
All the badges of the deceased God Paladin would be stored in the Holy Hall to receive the blessings of the Gods.
"Two years ago, before I became the third Head Knight … … according to tradition, His Majesty the Pope appointed me as the Guardian of the Holy Hall for a year," Hussain's voice became low and his mind was completely immersed in his memories.
"Guardian of the Holy Hall. This is the process that every Head Knight of the Holy Order has to go through before taking office. When I was appointed as the Guardian of the Holy Hall, everyone knew that I would become the Head Knight … … however, I did not expect that to be the beginning of my nightmare! The beginning of my nightmare! " Hussain suddenly laughed out loud. His laughter in the world of ice and snow, along with the wind, his voice vibrated like a ghost … …
"Boy, do you know who the strongest and greatest God Paladin in the history of the Shrines is? Do you know? "
"… … Uh … … It's you?" Du Wei answered carefully. He felt that the Knight had gone crazy. His mind was not normal at the moment, so it was better not to anger him.
"Me? What am I! Compared to that person, I am just an ant! "Hussain's tone suddenly became reverent.
"For hundreds of years … … No, even for a thousand years! Countless strong people have appeared on the continent, the strongest Warrior of the continent, the strongest Knight of the continent, the strongest Magician of the continent, the strongest Magician of the continent … … and so on. For hundreds of years, there have been many such strong people … … but there is only one title, in this thousand years, only one person has obtained it! "
"What title?"
Hussain took a deep breath, a sickly red color appeared on his cheeks. "The strongest person under the stars!"
The strongest person under the stars?
This title is indeed more impressive than the strongest Warrior of the continent and so on.
Du Wei licked his lips. "Who is this person?"
"This person is a former God Paladin. His God Paladin badge is stored in the Holy Church." Hussain shook his head. "Unfortunately, it has become my nightmare."
Du Wei's interest was piqued. He carefully used gentle words to guide Hussain to speak. "This person is … …"
"The great Emperor of the Roland Empire, the founder of the great empire … … the only person in a thousand years who is qualified to be called the strongest person under the stars … … Aragon Roland! His strength lies in the fact that no one can replicate him! Because he is not only the strongest Magician! At the same time, he is also the strongest Knight of the time … … "Hussain paused for a moment and added.
"God Paladin! His Majesty the Founding Emperor once joined the Holy Order! He has the God Paladin badge, which is stored in the Holy Church! That badge has become my … … nightmare! "
