. Chapter 46 The story that the Pirate King and the Elf Queen have to tell
Ron stood between two huge trees, feeling the fresh breath coming from the air.
His demiplane has expanded a lot again at this time. At a glance, he can no longer see the junction of the chaotic atmosphere. Among them are lakes and swamps, surrounded by mountains, and there are actually some forests that are not very lush. Creatures live there, and using one word to describe it is full of life. As he walked, the sand under his feet seemed to be the same as the magic continent. It surrounded his ankles and made him feel comfortable.
The Pirate King, who was wearing a long robe, sighed and slowly put away the scroll in his hand.
"Is it him?" Ron asked upon seeing this.
"That's him," Pirate King Grispan nodded and said, "I didn't expect that he was actually Manrico. I heard you say it once before, but I wasn't sure yet. Now that I've seen the portrait, I finally understand. Luo Well, now you should know why you didn¡¯t want to take action before, right?¡±
Ron hesitated for a moment and said: "I know you are afraid that he will find out. But the information I got from the elves seems that Manrico's life experience has some connection with Twilight."
The Pirate King's face changed, and after a long time he said: "I didn't expect it was them. Maybe I should understand a lot of things now. Ron, do you already know something about Manrico?"
Ron nodded and slowly told the Pirate King Manrico¡¯s information.
When Ron talked about Jesmilla and the Elf Queen, the Pirate King's seemingly eternal indifference dimmed for a moment, and then recovered again. The time was very short, but Ron saw it in his eyes.
¡°This child, alas,¡± Grispan sighed, ¡°Ron, you have probably guessed it, I am that person, Manrico¡¯s biological father.¡±
Although Ron was mentally prepared, he was still a little surprised when he heard Manrico admit it personally.
¡°Perhaps all this is an inevitable fate, but the moment when I stood on top of the world happened to me,¡± Manrico said slowly.
"After I swept across the sea and established my undisputed hegemony, I fought back to the country of my birth, and finally killed my enemy with my own hands, and my great revenge was avenged. At that time, I felt that I had unlimited glory. When I was preparing to triumph, I met Arrived at Jesmilla.
At that time, Jesmilla was looking for a moon gem for his wife, the Elf Queen. It was an extremely rare treasure that was difficult for ordinary people to see. It happened that I had just seized a similar gem, so he came to me and asked to exchange this gem with me.
He is a genius of the Elf clan. No matter what he says or does, he exudes a kind of elegance and natural grace. I quickly became a good friend with him and gave him this gem for free. Jesmila was very happy. After learning about my identity, she even invited me to visit the Elf Fantasy Land. As someone who has always longed for the Elf environment, I immediately agreed.
Unexpectedly, something would happen as soon as I left.
I saw the beautiful elven fantasy and the even more beautiful elven queen. At that time, I was just amazed at her grace and had no special thoughts. I also received warm hospitality from the elves during my time in the Elf Fantasy Land. Looking back, it was an unforgettable time.
It¡¯s just that the night before I left, because we were going to separate, Jesmila and I got drunk. But somehow, when I woke up, I found that I actually slept with the Elf Queen, and we had a relationship that transcended morality.
I was so shocked that I had no idea why all this happened?
But what pains me is that I actually slept with my best friend¡¯s wife. I always thought this was immoral and disgusting, but I didn¡¯t expect it to happen to me. I suddenly found that I couldn't face all this, couldn't face Jesmilla, and couldn't face his wife the Elf Queen.
So I chose to leave without saying goodbye.
I¡¯m afraid of seeing them, and I¡¯m even more afraid of having my conscience condemned.
Although the Elf Queen was still asleep when I left, I knew she would definitely find out when she woke up, and Jesmilla would also know. So I left in a daze, not even knowing how I left the Elf Fantasy Land.
Standing on my warship, I suddenly found that my heart could no longer be calm. Even in the days when I was betrayed, hunted by my enemies, and floating in the ocean, I would insist that my mind would not waver, and no storms could make me give up. But when I own the vastest territory, control the most powerful army, and have power over the vastest ocean, my heart is??Leaves the most insurmountable obstacle.
My behavior is desperate, but that doesn¡¯t mean my personality is the same. I can't even calm down and manage my vast territory.
¡¡±
Ron quietly listened to Grispan's self-narration and the troubles of a king, and suddenly realized that the Pirate King and himself had one thing in common, and that was their principles of conducting themselves in the world.
This principle is, at best, integrity and perseverance, and at worst, stubbornness.
This principle of life is not only the basis for their success, but also the shackles that bind them to some extent. Many times, when doing things, you have to give up an "explanation", which is an explanation for yourself and others. Why Ron wanted to find Ron? It was to explain to Zhuo Dong's parents, because of that promise. Why should I find Celine? That is an explanation for myself and her. So is Grispan.
But throughout the ages, many heroes have been ruined by this statement.
Ron sighed with emotion, and then thought, was Grispan's sudden disappearance also because of this matter? The more Ron thought about it, the more likely it seemed that there must be a reason for the Pirate King's shocking departure and the collapse of the Pirate Empire. At least the reason in front of me is a bit far-fetched, but it can sway Grispan's decision.
Pirate King Grispan was silent for a while, seeming to be recalling the years at that time. After a while, he continued: "I spent a month in torment like this. Just when I was tossing and turning and couldn't feel at ease, then A man found me.
I didn¡¯t know his identity, nor did I know his face. At that time, I was only a ninth-level peak cultivator, but there were many powerful warriors around me, including several guards with holy-level cultivation, but these people Without exception, the person's true appearance can be discovered. He even came to my secret room without my soldiers knowing.
I was shocked, but my long-term experience and high position told me that panic has no effect. On the contrary, it is the best opportunity for the other party to see your strength. So I asked him who he was and why he came to me.
The man didn¡¯t tell me his name, he just said that he knew everything that happened to me in the elven fantasy world.
I couldn¡¯t sit still when I heard it. This is a secret that tortures me. How could anyone else know it?
The man said that he just wanted to make a deal with me. After the deal was completed, he would keep the secret and would not tell it. I don't need to pay anything precious for this transaction. I only need to hand over to him the tens of thousands of captives I have obtained during my long-term campaign.
For me, these prisoners of war have no other use except to waste my food. Giving it to him is a solution. After all, I can't kill prisoners of war. Many people come because of our empire's reputation of not killing prisoners of war.
The man¡¯s request was very few, which made me more and more suspicious. He asked our warship to be sent to a certain location in the ocean by these prisoners of war, and designated a specific time, specific place, and even those who would escort the prisoners of war. He also asked the masters of the pirate empire to protect him. This transportation allows me to deploy as many experts as possible to participate in this matter.
In order to appease him, I agreed first.
¡°Perhaps I am also a little scared in my heart, fearing that if this matter is exposed, it will cause greater harm to Jesmilla and the Elf Queen.
After that person left, I investigated these people as quickly as possible. After checking, I found that these people were all from a small pirate fleet that I had annexed. There were probably thousands of them, and there was nothing unusual about them. But I sent the shadow warrior Papa Lucas to secretly monitor them, and finally discovered some secrets. It turned out that although these people usually behave abnormally, they would fall asleep on time at the same time at night, as if suddenly. It's like being unconscious for a while, and then waking up at the same moment, exactly every second.
I realized that these people were being controlled, and they seemed to have some agenda when they joined my empire.
And the man who asked me to send these people and all the experts seemed to have an ulterior motive.
I vaguely felt that there was something fishy about the whole incident. From the time I met Jesmila to the events that happened in the middle, there seemed to be some connection between them. There seemed to be a more important factor. Plans are brewing. So I started to get involved in this matter and find the person who framed me.
That day came soon. "
Having said this, Grispan stopped.
Ron was fascinated by what he heard, so he interrupted and asked: "When is that day?"
"Do you know about the Day of Wrath?", Grispan said.
"Of course I know that this is a big event for Wallace," Ron said. He suddenly remembered something, "By the way, you disappeared at the same time on that day."
Grispan nodded: "You finally remembered that that day we arrived at the designated place. I had made a lot of preparations before and designed many traps on these ships. I even had people take these ships away if something was wrong. I sank myself, and I also mobilized my elite power to closely monitor this place. Once anything is discovered, countless masters will come. I think that under my careful arrangement, even that mysterious master will come again. , I won¡¯t be afraid either.
We waited until the designated time, but the person still didn¡¯t come. I thought the man was just playing a trick on me, but when I was about to leave, something strange happened.
There were purple lightning everywhere, falling from the sky and covering the entire sea area. An extremely powerful magic wave disappeared between heaven and earth, shrouding my entire fleet in it. Then a black channel appeared in the lightning, and a strong suction force surged out of the channel, sucking us in as well as the boat.
Those low-level warriors were torn into pieces after entering this passage, turning into pieces of flesh and blood flying around. However, the high-level warriors above level seven barely survived, but none of them survived. The exception fell deep into the channel under this strong suction.
The entire fleet is so huge, but there is no way to get in or out of this passage. No one can go back by their own strength. But I saw a glimmer of light, which was wrapped in a ball and rushed from the other end of the passage.
The moment I met that ball of light, I saw something like a pair of eyes, which seemed to stare at me, and then its eyes passed across my body. Suddenly, I felt a sense of powerlessness all over my body, and was sucked into the endless darkness by suction.
I don¡¯t know how long it has passed, it seems like an instant or a year. By the time I found light from the darkness, we were already in another place. All kinds of strange and ugly creatures are rampant there, the air of death is permeated, and it is full of killing and silence.
We later realized that this was the plane of hell. We arrived in the hell plane. I and almost all the elites of the entire pirate empire were sucked to the hell plane. During the whole process, it seemed that a guy from the hell plane made an exchange with us and went to the magic continent.
After that, it was my conquest in the hell plane. This sudden change made my strength seem to have changed greatly. I actually found that I was very suitable for practicing in the hell plane, so my cultivation level also improved rapidly. With the elite strength we left behind, plus my own strength, A huge breakthrough, I became a king of the hell plane in a long time. Until I met Bayer, who was transformed by you, and then got to know you. "
This story is not long and the plot is not twists and turns, but the mystery in it makes Ron confused. Could it be that all of Grispan's experiences were designed by others? But was the person who planned all of this really related to Twilight?
"Manrico seems to know his origin, but he doesn't know who his biological father is yet," Ron said.
Grispan nodded and said, "That's fine."
"That's fine?" Ron said in surprise, "Aren't you ready to recognize him?"
¡°I won¡¯t appear in front of him until certain things are resolved,¡± Grispan said. ¡°Even if everything is resolved, I don¡¯t want to appear in front of him.¡±
Ron was stunned for a moment, seeming to understand Grispan's mood.
"After these hours of investigation, I have determined that there must be someone behind this. Both the Elf Queen and I were drugged, and I finally know who the drugged person is," Grispan said.
"Who is it?", Ron asked.
"Balzebul," the Pirate King said coldly.
¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª
¡°A month from now, Apollo is going to challenge Yunus,¡± Jackson said.
¡°Very good,¡± Martin said calmly, sitting on a comfortable large stone chair.
¡°In other words, we only have a month, but we don¡¯t seem to have many people,¡± Jackson said.
"Don't worry, I have my own arrangements. Jose still has a lot left for us," Martin said, "Have you sent a message to Zhuo Dong?"
"It was sent," Jackson said. He hesitated and said, "But he almost killed me. If I hadn't quicklyTell me your purpose. "
"Haha," Martin said with a smile, "I knew it. If it weren't for this, our lives would have been lost long ago. It was precisely because I saw Zhuo Dong's purpose that I sent you to contact him, otherwise wouldn't I have asked you to die? "
"But Master, will he really agree to cooperate with you? After all, there is too much hatred between us and him," Jackson said.
"The hatred we have with him is nothing compared to the hatred he has with that person." Martin sighed, as if he was sighing for himself.
