"The name is not important." Mr. Chong smiled as he spoke. His attitude was so gentle that it was as if he was meeting an elder of his own family. "Just like this body, it will only confuse mediocre people, but it will not fool smart people."
Although he had long guessed that Mr. Chong might have used the corpse of the Duke Of St. Hilde to play a "reincarnation", when Colin really saw the "resurrected" Duke Of St. Hilde with his own eyes and confirmed his previous guess, he could not help but be shocked.
Even in this world of Transcendents, such an "unscientific" thing was truly unbelievable.
Was arcana really so magical?
Or was Mr. Chong just too resourceful?
"I didn't expect to see you in White Dew Castle. It's truly an honor." Colin greeted with a smile. Although he tried his best to remain calm, the smile on his face was inevitably a little stiff.
To be honest, Mr. Chong's appearance was completely out of his expectations.
And what he hated the most was accidents.
This legendary figure who had stirred up the Northern Frontier twice by himself was not an easy character to deal with.
Especially now, after Mr. Chong had taken over the body of a Paladin, Colin really had no idea how terrifying his strength would be.
If such a person stood on the opposite side of him …
Colin would not naively think that Mr. Chong's appearance in White Dew City was just a coincidence.
Obviously, Mr. Chong had a plan here as well!
But he did not know if it would conflict with his plan …
"Count Angele, this should be our first official meeting, right?" Mr. Chong looked at Colin with interest and said with a sigh.
"Yes. I have long admired your great name! " Colin said respectfully. At the same time, he kept guessing Mr. Chong's purpose in coming to White Dew City this time.
"Actually, I have wanted to meet you for a long time, Count Angele. Among the rising stars of the Radiance Empire in the past ten years, you are the most outstanding one!" Mr. Chong smiled and looked at Colin, not hiding the admiration in his eyes.
"You flatter me."
"No, not at all. In fact, I feel that I have always underestimated you."
The corner of Colin's mouth twitched awkwardly. He felt that Mr. Cheng's praise was a little awkward and made him very uncomfortable.
Just as she was about to say something, she heard Mr. Kui ask again.
"Count Angele, you've reached rank 6, right?"
Colin could only nod honestly and say, "Yes, I was lucky enough to advance just now."
"What a young tier-6 knight!" "As far as I can remember, even the most talented Paladins of the St. Theon Family were not as powerful as you at your age."
"How can I be compared to my Holy Knight ancestors …"
"No!" Mr. Chong said seriously, "You're even stronger than them. At least when they were your age, none of them could lead an army to attack White Dew City.
Moreover, you can turn the Eastern Region upside down with only 20,000 Bloody Cavalrymen!
Is it because you're too powerful? Or is it because the people of the Eastern Region have been living such a comfortable life for so long that the army has become so weak? "
The bad premonition in Colin's heart was getting stronger and stronger. His brain was spinning rapidly, thinking about the real purpose of Mr. Cheng, and at the same time he responded.
"No, I was just lucky to win a few battles …"
Mr. Chang smiled and finally stopped praising Colin. Instead, he said, "
"When we were in Swan Castle, Archbishop Ajani told you all the secrets of the church, right?"
"Yes." Colin hurriedly nodded and said, "I agree with Archbishop Ajani's point of view very much. Nowadays, the church is too depraved. In the name of the God of Light, they keep interfering in the affairs of the empire and plundering private interests!
So when I heard that you and Archbishop Ajani were determined to change the current situation, I chose to join you without hesitation!
This time, I led the army to attack the Eastern Region because I want to cut off the church's biggest support in the secular world.
What are your plans for coming to White Dew City this time? "
In fact, Colin was also very clear that the alliance between him, Mr. Cheng, and Archbishop Ajani was actually very fragile. Although both sides intended to resist the church, there was no basis of trust between them, and there was no clear goal or plan between them.
There were even some old grudges and conflicts of interest between them.
Colin did not think that Mr. Cheng would forget that he had repeatedly foiled his plans. It could even be said that the failure of the St. Theon Family to successfully occupy the Northern Frontier was mostly due to Colin.
Now, he only hoped that Mr. Cheng could temporarily put aside the grudges between them for the sake of the foundation of cooperation between them, and unite to cut off the church's tentacles in the Eastern Region.
Mr. Cheng did not answer Colin's question, but said to himself, "Count Angele, in fact, I have always admired you, and I also very much hope to become your ally …"
Colin's heart sank, because he understood that generally, there would be a "but …" at the end of this sentence pattern.
And all the words he said before this "but" were all bullshit!
Sure enough, he heard Mr. Cheng continue.
"But, you are too outstanding, so outstanding that it makes me tremble in fear."
Colin pursed his lips and said helplessly, "Mr. Cheng, isn't it a good thing to have an outstanding ally?"
"It may be for some people, but not for me." Mr. Cheng stared into Colin's eyes, and there was a hint of regret in his eyes. "I am a person with a strong desire for control, so I don't like those who are too outstanding, and always bring me surprises and surprises."
Colin's muscles instantly tightened, and he prepared for the worst, but he still tried to persuade him.
"Mr. Cheng, you have overestimated me. I am just the son of a baron in the countryside. Even if I become a count, it is because of the shadow of the House of Saint Hilde …"
"No." Mr. Cheng interrupted, and the smile on his face disappeared. "Count Angele, I have carefully investigated your past, and to be honest, I have a guilty conscience. If I give you more time, I don't even dare to imagine how far you will go.
So, I am sorry. "
Hearing this, Colin no longer had any hope in his heart. His whole body surged like flowing water, and the holy light gathered in his hands.
But before he could make a move, he saw Mr. Cheng's eyes suddenly emit a dazzling light.
For a moment, he felt like he saw the sun right in front of him. His eyes stung, and tears flowed out uncontrollably.
Colin was shocked, and he immediately retreated.
But in his blurred vision, he saw an arm shining with golden Holy Light, thrusting straight into his chest with the force of a thunderbolt!
Puchi!
Colin screamed, and he was shocked to find that his heart was already in Mr. Cheng's hand!
"Farewell, Count Angele!"
Bang!
Mr. Cheng squeezed hard, and Colin's heart burst like a balloon filled with water.
Blood splattered everywhere.
