…
The Church's influence in Europe was ridiculously large, and almost no one could go against it … But its sworn enemy, the Covenant of Darkness, had been standing tall for more than two thousand years.
Although the Covenant of Darkness was indeed very powerful, it was absolutely incomparable to the Church …
One of the very important reasons was that the Covenant of Darkness had a few powerful allies … The Nordic Odin's Domain was one of them, firmly occupying the Nordic territory and secretly supporting the Covenant of Darkness.
There were even a few times when the Covenant of Darkness was almost completely annihilated, but the Odin's Domain sent people to join the war against the Church, or to rescue the core members of the Covenant of Darkness.
As the saying goes, if the lips die, the teeth will feel cold …
The Church was powerful, and with the Covenant of Darkness restraining them, it allowed the Odin's Domain and other European forces to survive … Once the Covenant of Darkness was annihilated, the next to be annihilated would definitely be the Odin's Domain.
It was precisely because of such a strong alliance that although the Church's influence was shockingly large, it only occupied its own territory, slowly encroaching on the territories of the other major forces, and did not forcefully attack.
Fire God Loki, the youngest son of the Odin's Domain's current God King; Bilbados, the great chairman of the Covenant of Darkness, the disciple of the Dark Lord Summerfield … These identities destined them to know each other, and could even be said to be very familiar with each other.
Bilbados was not very clear about why Qin Fang had come to the Eagle Kingdom, but he had always sent people to follow Qin Fang, in order to prevent the Church's people from attacking in advance.
But he did not expect to discover the conflict between Loki and Qin Fang …
Based on Bilbados's understanding of Loki and Qin Fang, he rushed over as fast as he could after hearing the news … When he arrived, it happened to be when Loki sent down the Heavenly Fire. Bilbados hesitated again and again, but he still didn't make a move.
Firstly, he did not have any better way to deal with the purple heavenly fire, and secondly, he did not want to offend Loki …
But when Qin Fang swallowed the purple heavenly fire and sent it over to kill Loki, he could no longer sit still!
Bilbados thought that he had hidden himself well, but he did not know that he had already been marked on Qin Fang's minimap. There was no way he could hide!
If Qin Fang really wanted to kill Loki, he would have done it long ago. Why would he let Loki attack him again and again?
His purpose was to force Bilbados to sacrifice himself.
"Give you face?
Hmph … "
Qin Fang stared coldly at Bilbados. His eyes looked as if they could devour a person. His tone was indescribably cold and threatening. It seemed that he was really angry.
"Bilbados, although I agreed to cooperate with you, it doesn't mean that I have to listen to your orders … I'm not your subordinate. If you dare to stop me, I don't mind killing you as well!"
Murderous aura overflowed in all directions. The terrifying Gang Qi on Qin Fang's body vibrated, and the blood-colored fog rippled out in an instant, almost wrapping his entire body. Vaguely, there were waves of clear dragon roars lingering around Qin Fang's body.
"No, no, no … That's not what I meant!"
Bilbados' expression was quite ugly. He hated Loki to death in his heart, but he could only helplessly say that.
Bilbados didn't doubt the authenticity of Qin Fang's words at all.
Although Qin Fang had not advanced to the Supremacy realm, his fighting strength was completely disproportionate to his realm.
In the battle back then, Dorosi, who had the Golden Scripture, was not weaker than him … But what was the result?
Wasn't he still killed by Qin Fang in the most violent way?
If he really fought with Qin Fang, although Bilbados was confident that he could protect himself, he would definitely not be able to protect Loki … Moreover, if he really fought, the cooperation between the two sides would be declared a failure.
If the cooperation failed, he would not be able to protect Loki …
Even an idiot would know that such a loss was something that he absolutely could not do.
"Mister Qin, Loki is the son of God King Odin, and God King Odin has been a close friend of my teacher for many years … I know that what he did today has made you very angry, but I hope to use other methods to compensate for your loss!
I only ask that you spare his life! "
Bilbados had planned for the cooperation for a long time. He definitely did not want Qin Fang to go back on his words when it was almost time. If that happened, his loss would be too great … In order to help Qin Fang obtain that brocade box, he had already paid an incomparably bitter price.
However, he also could not watch Loki die in Qin Fang's hands …
Speaking of Loki's identity, it was possible to frighten others, but it was definitely useless to frighten Qin Fang.
What was Dorosi's identity? He was the Deputy Director of the Church's Inquisition of Heresy, the confirmed future Director, and even the successor of the Pope … However, falling into Qin Fang's hands was a dead end.
Bilbados had guessed Qin Fang's identity many times, and he also knew that there was definitely a very powerful sect behind him … He even felt that Qin Fang was very likely to be the Blood Emperor's disciple.
Every time Qin Fang's strength exploded, he would release a dense blood-red fog. No matter how he looked at it, it was very closely related to the Blood Demon Sect. The Blood Emperor was the strongest person in the Blood Demon Sect and Demon Sect. He was a terrifying existence that was on par with his teacher, the Dark Emperor. It was not strange that he could teach such a disciple.
Such guesses that were unknown who knew how far off from the truth made Bilbados feel even more fearful.
With the Blood Emperor's support, even if God King Odin came personally, he would not dare to do anything to Qin Fang …
Therefore, he could only find another way and use a roundabout tactic now!
"Compensation?"
Hearing Bilbados's words, Qin Fang frowned slightly and muttered to himself, "Tell me first, what kind of compensation … If it can't satisfy me, then you'd better stay aside!"
Actually, Qin Fang had been waiting for Bilbados to say this for a long time!
When he forced Bilbados to take the brocade box, he was already thinking about tricking Bilbados for the second time … He didn't have a better opportunity before, but he didn't expect to come to the Eagle Kingdom and meet Loki. His eyes suddenly lit up.
"This …"
Bilbados was also slightly taken aback. He didn't know what to say.
After the brocade box incident, he already understood Qin Fang's appetite … Most importantly, he faintly felt that something was wrong. He felt that he had fallen into Qin Fang's trap.
But …
Did he have the right to choose?
Obviously not!
From the moment he was forced to jump out helplessly to protect Loki, he could no longer turn back!
Unless he gave up on cooperation and gave up on Loki …
But he could not give up on either of these two!
"Mister Qin, tell me … How can I let Loki go?"
After understanding this, Bilbados felt a little more relaxed as he asked with a bitter smile.
"It's very simple. I heard that King Arthur's tomb is not far from here … I know there's a sword buried inside …"
Hearing Bilbados's words, Qin Fang naturally knew that he understood everything. Now was the time to negotiate. Qin Fang was not the least bit ashamed of scheming against others. Instead, he said with a smile.
"Sword in the Stone?"
Hearing Qin Fang's words, Bilbados's face became extremely ugly.
The Sword in the Stone was King Arthur's sword. It was a legendary divine sword with supreme power. It could be said to be the most precious treasure of the Eagle Country … It was stored in King Arthur's tomb and was protected by the Twelve Knights of the Round Table.
The Twelve Knights of the Round Table should be the most powerful experts in the Eagle Country. At least four of them were in the Supreme Realm, while the weakest of the other eight were at the peak of the Supreme Realm. Most of them were in the half-step Supreme Realm.
Moreover, these twelve people were good at joint attacks. The terrifying combat power they could unleash was definitely enough to fight against a late-stage Supreme expert. Even some of the Sect Masters of the major forces would be wary of them.
The Sword in the Stone was the object of their protection …
Seizing the Sword in the Stone was extremely difficult. It was basically equivalent to charging into the Holy See and killing a Cardinal. Unless his teacher, Dark Lord Summerfield, personally took action, it was unlikely that other late-stage Supremes would be able to accomplish it.
As for late-stage Supreme experts, even if they were not the Sect Masters or Supreme Elders of the top forces, they were definitely supreme experts. They were not people that Bilbados could invite!
Not to mention that such experts might not succeed.
In other words, the success rate of this mission was close to zero!
"Of course not …"
Seeing that Bilbados was imagining so much, his face completely changed … Behind him, Loki, who had just seen a little bit of hope, was also scared pale by Qin Fang's request.
Qin Fang slowly denied at this time.
"Although the Sword in the Stone is a divine sword, it is not something from Long Province. I have no interest in it … The sword I want to take is a treasure sword from Long Province. It should be placed in the outer tomb of King Arthur's tomb. At most, only four of the Twelve Knights of the Round Table will take care of it …"
This sword was originally one of Qin Fang's goals. He came to the Eagle Country this time not only to cooperate with Bilbados' plan, but also to take this sword with him.
But now that Bilbados had taken the initiative to jump out, Qin Fang did not mind using him to complete this mission.
"The outer tomb … at most four Knights of the Round Table!"
Although Bilbados did not fully believe Qin Fang's words, this condition was obviously acceptable …
Among the Twelve Knights of the Round Table, there were only a total of four Supreme experts, and only one of them had reached the middle stage of the Supreme realm. Their strength was about the same as his … That sword was obviously not valued by the Knights of the Round Table. Even if he faced these four Supreme level Knights of the Round Table, Bilbados still had a good chance of getting it.
If the four weakest Knights of the Round Table were to come, Bilbados would be able to crush them easily with his strength …
However, Bilbados felt that things could not be so simple …
Unfortunately, he had no choice!
"Mr. Qin, is the information reliable?"
Bilbados could not help but ask.
"It is very reliable …"
Qin Fang said solemnly. Whether it was his tone, eyes, expression, or even his heartbeat and breathing, there was almost no fault to be found. It was as if this information was 100% confirmed.
As for the real inside story …
Qin Fang obviously could not tell Bilbados everything!
"Alright, I can agree to this condition of yours …"
Anyway, there was no choice, and Bilbados had to protect Loki, so he could only grit his teeth and agree … Even though when he said this, the uneasiness became even stronger, but he couldn't care less.
"It's a deal!"
Qin Fang's face revealed a bright smile. "Loki … This time, I won't be calculative with you!
If you dare to do this again, don't blame me for being impolite … Hmph! "
"I …"
Loki's face turned from white to red.
When he heard Qin Fang agree to let him go, he had just relaxed a little … However, when he heard Qin Fang's impolite words, the naturally arrogant him almost subconsciously wanted to refute.
However, when he thought of Qin Fang's terrifying methods, Loki swallowed the words that were about to come out of his mouth.
The situation was stronger than the person. Although Loki was a little stupid, he was not stupid!
It was not easy to save his life. If it was destroyed because of his words, then he would be too far gone …
