Eagle Flag of Epirus

Chapter 6: contract

   "What is an international joke?" Justinian almost collapsed. He thought he was fearless after experiencing the journey, but what happened now is completely subverting his three views.

   He was already convinced that he was dead and couldn't die anymore. He was floating in the air watching Alex III and his guards throw his body into the secret room, and he couldn't do anything.

   "Your Majesty, are we really leaving here now? If I were to search now, then Muzfius might be able to be captured." His head of guard hesitated about the order given by Alexei.

But Alexei III said impatiently: "I don't have time to wait. If I continue to stay here, there is a risk of being discovered by the Crusaders, and sooner or later those Turkic people will find something wrong. Leave here now, from the sea. Go to Thessaly." Although Justinian declared that he would be captured by the Latins when he went there, Alex III, who was mean and unkind, did not want to go to Nicaea, because that meant he would completely lose his comeback. opportunity.

   "Take away all the softness inside, the gold coins and gems, don't care about the others." Although there was some pain, Alexey III gave the order. Although the art and antiquities of the empire in the vault are invaluable, he can no longer manage them when he is ready to flee, and he has no time to turn these things into gold coins that can make mercenaries work for himself.

   "Yes!" The guards were ordered to walk into the secret room. They were loyal and loyal veterans brought out by Alex III. They had also been on the battlefield, but they couldn't help feeling shuddered after seeing the **** scene inside. Those Turkic people who hit the arrow are like hedgehogs, and every gold coin is stained with their greedy blood.

   Despite this, the guards did not dare to neglect to transport all the gold coins out.

   "What about the corpse?" Looking at the Turkic and Justinian who had fallen to death in a pool of blood, the chief guard of Alex III asked.

   But as soon as he finished speaking, Emperor Alexei's temperatureless eyes fell on him, making him feel a burst of horror.

"Do you still need to ask me about this kind of thing? Put it all in the secret room and don't move." Alex III looked at the art and royal artifacts that could not be taken away, but still felt unwilling to give up. This is the empire that has been in the same line for thousands of years. Treasure, when Constantinople was besieged by the Crusaders brought by the Venetians, he finally relied on the Genoese smuggling boat to take it away, and now he has to give up.

   After everything was ready soon, Alex III nodded in satisfaction.

And Justinian was staring at him, but he couldn't do anything. He didn't understand why this insidious man wanted to attack so decisively. He even risked the notoriety of killing his allies. Now he is equal to Roma. The sultan was torn apart, and once the Turkic people outside noticed the murder inside, the castle would not be able to withstand it for long.

   It is impossible for them to escape here without knowing it! Justinian stared at Alex III's every move and wanted to know what medicine he sold in the gourd.

   At this time, Alexei III slowly walked into the secret room and walked to a corner. There was an inconspicuous silver wine glass. Compared with the other precious treasures in the secret room, this simple wine glass was simply worthless.

   But Justinian immediately noticed something was wrong, and the next moment, an unexpected scene happened. Alexei III turned the wine glass, which was actually not an ordinary silver wine glass but a cleverly disguised mechanism.

   I only heard the sound of the machine turning, another secret door opened in the secret room, and a long tunnel in front of me extended to the ground.

   It turns out that this is the hidden hole card of Alex III. He has long known that the Turkic people are untrustworthy, so only he knows this tunnel.

This castle seems unremarkable, but in fact it is indeed the mansion villa of Emperor Manuel the Great. The tunnel here was actually built by Manuel I at the cost of giving the Genoese trading privileges. It has always been here. It has been the secret command post of Emperor Manuel's counterattack in Anatolia. However, with the fiasco of Milleo Saiphalon, the emperor's aspirations were not paid, and the place was completely forgotten by the people. On the contrary, it became a land of desperation for the king of subjugation, so ironic. Alex III took his guards and walked into the tunnel with gold and silver treasures. Justinian couldn’t help but want to follow, but was bounced back by an invisible wall. He couldn’t get past the thunder pond at all. .

And Justinian, who witnessed this scene, muttered to himself unwillingly: "Does it allow you to escape so smoothly?" He really couldn't swallow this breath. With such a useless way of death, he didn't have a chance to show off his skills. Can't return to the original world.

"Damn it, even if you give me another chance, bastard, respond to me quickly, you will never get me here to die!" Justinian knew it must be caused. He fell down and snarled at the unresponsive locket. The desperate Justinian can only put his last hope on this weird locket, and he never thinks that he happened to be teleported here.

   At this moment, as if responding to Justinian, the original locket suddenly flashed with a strange light. The gleaming Justinian couldn't open his eyes, and was instantly swallowed by the light, and when he opened his eyes, he was in a space shrouded in white light.

   "Where is this?" Justinian asked subconsciously, even though there was no one around him.

   But just then a naive voice answered his question. "Here is the inside of the ark of the covenant. The space of spiritual elements is relying on this force to transmit you here."

   The dumbfounded Justinian took two steps back and couldn't believe his ears. The amount of information was too great. The things he encountered on this day were too magical that he could not believe that it was true.

   "What the **** are you...?"

   "It's a pity that I am not a ghost. To be precise, you are, and I am the Ark of the Covenant, the body of the locket that brought you here." The tender voice replied.

   "Then send me back!" Justinian roared excitedly. It was the worst thing in his life to come here. He doesn't care what mess the other party is now, he just wants to go back. If it weren't for the source of the sound, Justinian rushed forward.

   "It's a pity that I can't send you back now with my strength." There was no emotional fluctuation in the immature voice, and he directly refused Justinian's request.

   "Then you sent me here to send me to death?" Justinian asked gritted his teeth with a tremor in his heart when he got the reply. He tried to stay calm. Although annoyed that the other party broke his peaceful life and caused him to fall here, he intuitively told himself that there seemed to be a turning point.

"Of course not, at least I have been barely satisfied with your performance, so I can give you a chance. And you will no longer have nothing, I can provide you with some minimal help." The other party's voice is clearly childlike. , But there is an unquestionable coercion. It gave Justinian the opportunity ~www.ltnovel.com~ but Justinian also knew that it was not free.

   "So relative, what are my obligations?" Justinian asked vigilantly. The other party must have asked him to be uneasy, but even so, he actually knew that he had no room for bargaining.

   In the white light, the voice sounded again, uttering his own conditions. "Look for my fragments. There are still six lockboxes like that. Find them. When I have complete power, I can send you back."

   "Deal!" Justinian agreed to the other party's request without hesitation. Although he could not go back immediately, it was better than death. He increasingly felt that this self-proclaimed "Ark of the Covenant" was very weird. Although the immature voice seemed harmless to humans and animals, he thought with his toes that he also knew that the other party deliberately let Alexei III kill himself to force him to submit. There is no need to weigh the pros and cons, Justinian can only choose to agree.

   As soon as he said his words, the "ark" in the white light reacted.

   "The contract is signed, your soul now belongs to me." Suddenly the voice became cold.

   Before he even had time to react, Justinian felt a huge suction pulling himself violently, turning the world around.

   "Hoo--!"

   opened his eyes again, Justinian did abruptly and breathed the long-lost air deeply. He was already dead and came back to life from a pool of blood. At this time, he felt that he had just returned from **** and subconsciously touched his chest. Only then did Justinian realize that the original scary wound had healed.

   is incredible!

   At this moment, the locket still held in his hand rang that voice again.

   "I have given you a chance, then you must fulfill your promise next."
