Your notoriety is known to everyone

Chapter 151 So, what’s the price? (4k)

Hohai grinned after hearing Luo Gesi's words. He just wanted to unmask the person in front of him and see if he was qualified to grant him a gift.

However, when he wanted to continue, he found that he seemed to have forgotten how to move his limbs.

After his spirit broke through the interference and recovered, his eyes suddenly couldn't stop falling.

While falling, he saw the sun-like bone spurs extending from the back of the guy's head, and the surrounding space was also distorted like ripples. The four elements of earth, wind, water, and fire were all rearranged and rearranged. More than average.

"cheat……"

Hohay tried his best to keep his eyes open, and at the last moment he wanted to angrily scold Rogers as a liar.

The ability to separate his head and body in an instant without him being aware of it, and to open up a field, was simply not something that a Silver Junior could do.

It's really despicable to deliberately show weakness despite having gold-level power.

However, when the words came out of his mouth, there were only extremely weak breaths, vague syllables that were difficult to distinguish, and blood foam overflowing from his mouth.

Luo Gesi lowered his head and looked down at the head that hit the ground with a thud, and the headless body that fell backwards from the millstone, and sent the millstone to the bottomless pit without hesitation.

He had just used the [Time Stop Special] once, and cut off Hohai's head with a large amount of magic power that exploded in an instant. Now that he had done what he needed to do, there was no need to stay any longer.

Moreover, he found that although he could expand the domain with the power of the Spiral Sword, it was only a rudimentary form, and he could not exert much of his own power. Moreover, the suppressive power of the Imperial Capital's magic circle was becoming more and more powerful, and the domain could be conquered at any time. Possibility of explosion.

The magic power was transferred to the silver ring in his hand. After Hohay's dying body was burnt to ashes by the fire, the figures of Logos and Lufia also faded away in an instant.

Everyone in the Discord Abyss who was originally fighting with the followers of the Abyss was stunned when they realized what was happening, and then simply started to run away.

The strong men of the gold rank wanted to kill them like chickens, without the slightest hope of confrontation.

But what they feared most was not Luo Gesi's strength, but Luo Gesi's display of his power.

The Imperial Capital will never allow any gold-level strong men to expand their territory at will within the Imperial Capital. What they will face next is something more terrifying than a bottomless pit of golden strong men.

The believers of the Bottomless Pit also had no desire to pursue them and also tried their best to escape.

……

In the magician's mansion, in the bedroom of the villa where Rogers lived temporarily, Alice sat on the sofa, lowering her head and quietly stroking the silver ring in her palm.

There was no shadow demon in the room, because the two shadow demons would immediately confront each other as soon as they appeared, and only when they needed to play the role of Logos occasionally would one of them be released.

"Is this incident also related to me?"

Alice's brows furrowed slightly, and her eyes were filled with uneasiness, as if she was engaged in a silent battle with her heart.

"Why don't you ask Luo Gesi himself?" Alina replied in a cold tone.

She was sitting cross-legged on the sofa, with a small wooden board resting on her legs. Various documents were placed on it, and she was correcting and marking them one by one with a quill pen.

"Because I don't dare and don't want to ask." Alice pursed her lips slightly for a few times, and then said as if she had exhausted all her strength:

“I’m not afraid of knowing the truth, but I’m afraid of putting pressure on Rogers, which is something I should feel guilty about, not something that needs to bother him.

"What should I do to make him feel more relaxed so that I can really rely on him..."

Alice's words were full of confusion. She wanted to swim upstream over and over again, going back to a past that felt dull when she had it, but now feels sweet.

But as more and more things are accumulated in the past, the sweetness becomes less and less. What is left is nothing but regret and guilt.

But she knew very well in her heart that Luo Gesi did not need this kind of worthless guilt, and even if she told him frankly, it would probably only cause trouble to him.

"Are you asking me this question?" Elena asked in an inexplicable tone without any pause in her hand movements.

Alice didn't answer when she heard this, she just stared at the silver ring silently, not knowing what she was thinking.

"I somewhat understand why Logos was willing to trust you in the first place." Alina sighed and said softly.

After a while, Alice patted her cheeks lightly, with a look of renewed excitement on her face. At this moment, the silver ring also reacted.

When Logos returned to the bedroom, he immediately put away the cloaks and masks on himself and Lufia, and at the same time asked carefully what happened during his absence.

The turmoil in the Osek District did not reach the Magician's Mansion at all. To the people here, it was as if nothing had happened.

In other words, even if they knew about it, not many people would care about the situation of the residents of Osek District. At most, they would reprimand the cultists for their rampage.

The day that followed remained very calm, as Rogers continued to handle his affairs in an orderly manner, while making some optional preparations for the Harvest Day celebration.

During this period, he directly used the achievements he had accumulated in the past to pray to the gods in the bottomless pit for a high-level special award.

What he most wants to have is special codes related to time and space, but the special codes related to time and space are too rare and buggy, and his achievements have not yet reached this standard.

Then he retreated to the next best thing and asked the gods of the Abyss to upgrade [Incomplete Praise] for him.

This time, the gods did not reject his request, and happily upgraded it to the [Eating and Storage Special Code].

This special code can not only store all kinds of power, but also swallow the magic power of other creatures or things with extremely high efficiency.

And the amount of stored power is completely decided by Logos himself, and he no longer needs to enter a "disabled state" like [Incomplete Praise].

After getting the [Erosion and Storage Bonus], the first thing he did was activate his ever-increasing charm, keeping it at the same level as when he first got the bonus, and storing all future increases.

This is not because he wants to obtain a charm skill with a very long cooldown, but because he has long discovered the hidden dangers of allowing it to grow.

In addition, he obtained a set of profound secret volumes about space magic, which not only detailed various types of space magic, but also related sacrifices, which allowed him to avoid the need to actually go to the real world if necessary. It can be activated by mastering space magic. As for the matter of giving the clock time symbol to the gods of the Abyss, it did not seem to be going very smoothly, because after Luo Gesi informed the Abyss of the Abyss of the matter when he was going to sacrifice the millstone, the progress of their negotiations showed that Very unpleasant.

However, Logos is not too concerned about this, because with the permission of the gods, he has entrusted this matter to the believers, and the gods seem to be happy with the scene of many religious groups fighting for them. in it.

It was not until the next day that he received a summons notice from the emperor, asking him to appear in court the next day.

In the early morning, the blue sky is like a pure and flawless picture, with clouds floating gently in it.

Luo Gesi was riding on the carriage that brought him, dragging the open magic book in his hand, observing the knowledge he had just gained.

This knowledge about space magic is not easy to learn. Even if it is combined with the sage's manuscripts, it is still a bit difficult. He plans to wait until he returns to St. Helta and spend a sum of credits to borrow many prerequisite books to help him with his research. .

Although the emperor's palace is called a palace, it is more like a city within a city.

The carriage that Rogers rode passed through several tall and thick doors, and outside the window was a solemn and calm exquisite building.

After driving for a long time, he stepped off the carriage and entered the luxurious and magnificent main hall. Under the leadership of servants one after another, he walked through corridors full of luxury.

During this period, in addition to the attendants, he met many courtiers and nobles. They wore gorgeous and exquisite clothes and followed a set of strict etiquette and rules unique to the emperor's court.

As they saluted each other again and again, Rogers felt that his hands and waist were almost stiff.

squeak-

When the two head officials pushed open a high door at the back of the hall, and he entered a garden under the leadership of his attendants, he was finally able to shake off the continuous greetings.

Luo Gesi had thought that the place where the emperor summoned him would be an imperial palace or a noble drawing room, but he never expected that it would be such a "private" garden.

Different summoning places had different political implications, and he had no idea that he was close enough to the royal family to enter the garden.

Just as he was thinking about what the emperor wanted to say, a beautiful pavilion made of white marble came into view.

Delicate carvings decorate the columns, and the interior of the pavilion features an ornate round garden table and armchairs.

"Go back."

A middle-aged man wearing a golden robe and sitting on a chair gave instructions to the attendant.

The other party's thick and full blond hair was interspersed with a strand of white hair. His face had clear lines and clear cheek contours, and he bore a vague resemblance to Prince Leiaide.

But unlike the prince who was so unkempt, his beard and sideburns were trimmed extremely delicately.

"Your majesty, your subject Rogers Braid has come to see you in accordance with the imperial edict. May your glory last forever and shine brightly."

Rogers did not use a cane when he came this time. He put one hand on his chest, leaned forward slightly, and made an impeccable appearance to pay his respects.

"Sit down first. Do you have anything you want to drink?" Frederic III nodded slightly, looked at Rogers affectionately, and stretched out his hand to let him sit on the opposite side.

In addition to the emperor, there were also his two heirs, Pertus and Ilias, at the table.

"Thank you for your hospitality. Ordinary black tea will be fine." Rogers replied shyly, showing an extremely reserved manner.

The first impression Fredrick III gave him was completely different from what he imagined. There was no sense of oppression or majesty at all. His eyes were like those of the leader of the family, which made him subconsciously feel that he should be easy to get along with. a feeling of.

"I'm just an emperor, not a man-eating tiger. Just be more relaxed." After giving instructions to the attendants standing nearby, Frederick III spoke with a smile.

He smiled, with a gentle and loving look on his face, carefully looked at Rogers' face, and continued after a while:

"You not only inherited your father's wisdom, but also inherited your father's handsomeness very well. You are a good young man.

"Since last year, I have often heard of your name, first the deeds related to the saint, and then the description of you in Richard's reply to me.

"Later, more and more people talked about you, as if everyone around me had to say something about you.

"Especially Elias, she keeps writing to me explaining your amazing knowledge and your tragic experience of being misunderstood by the world.

"She feels sorry for you. For this reason, she specifically asked me to explain to the world that your reputation is not as bad as the rumors say. Oh, in addition to this, she also..."

Just when Frederic III seemed to be getting excited and wanted to continue talking on this topic, Ilyas beside him gently tugged on his sleeve, and a shy blush rushed to Ilyas's face. .

Seeing his daughter's anger, Frederick III laughed and said bluntly: "No more, no more."

"I can prove to you that Ilyas is indeed concerned about your situation." Pertus continued to add in a brisk tone, ignoring the look from Ilyas.

Listening to the singing of the two father and son, Luo Gesi gradually understood the idea of ​​the emperor summoning him to the garden, or that the other party had revealed his intention to him without any secret.

"Luogesi Qing, what do you think of this matter?" Frederick III sat upright, looked directly at Luogesi, and asked curiously as if talking about everyday matters.

"In principle, because this involves royal matters, I need to carefully consider the favor given to me by Her Royal Highness from the overall situation, and need to carefully avoid vague wording, rather than focusing on simple considerations..."

Luo Gesi sat upright and began to sing very seriously.

After hearing this for a long time, Frederick III laughed, clapped his legs, and said to Pertus who was standing aside: "This child has the wisdom to serve as a minister in my palace council!"

Pertus did not agree when he heard this. Instead, he slowly frowned and looked at Logos worriedly.

After laughing, Frederic III lowered his eyes, with a heavier smile on his face, and said in a more friendly tone:

"I can give you a territory in the north that is no worse than Lord Breed, and I can also promote you to a hereditary honorary title, and allow you to hold important positions in the fourth-level parliament, and allow you to enjoy the same royal education as a prince. It can even help you promote the formation of a student community..."

When Rogers heard the benefits that Frederic III kept promising, his originally calm mentality was slightly shaken, but at the next moment, he couldn't help but think of a famous question asked by Old Roar to Gul'dan in his mind. ——So, what’s the price?
