Chapter 73 - The cause of the advent, the choice faced
As for Nolan’s summons, Mordo unexpectedly did not refuse.
Just after curiously observing the sad-looking Archduke Demon, he continued to walk in with Nolan and Tony.
“This is the training ground.”
On a flat brick floor, dozens of apprentices were fighting each other and practicing martial arts.
When a few people saw the devil pushing the wheelchair, they couldn’t help but exclaimed, and then continued to train under the eyes of the instructor.
Mordo did not intend to stop and speak, and turned a corner in the corridor.
“This is the library. The administrator, Charlie Robert, is an Englishman and a senior mage of the London Temple.”
Across the open wooden door, an old man nodded to them with a stiff face, as a greeting.
Out of pity, Nolan nodded to him as well.
If he remembered correctly, the old man died quite tragically when Casillas invaded the library and robbed the Dormammu Summoning Ceremony.
I don’t know if the screenwriter has studied the history of China and learned the punishment of dismembering the body by five horses;
This hard-working old man was beheaded by Casillas himself after four followers tied his limbs with ropes.
It’s a pity that the other party is not like me, he is a destined dragonborn, and when he beheads, he will not be rescued by a single dragon. If there is a chance, Nolan doesn’t mind changing history, just save him.
“Here we are.”
After walking for more than ten minutes, Mordo pushed open a log gate and led them into a spacious hall.
“This is the temple of my master, Master Gu Yi.”
“I have a question, is this Gu Yi you’re referring to, is it the real name?” Tony couldn’t help but interrupted again.
Mordo didn’t answer, just stared at him calmly.
“Uh, ‘forget everything you think you know’, is that what you want to say? I’ll ask casually.”
No one answered the embarrassed Tony Stark, Mordo led them into the main hall of the main hall.
In the hall is a large open space with wooden floors, and several tables are placed around it. Unlike in the movie, there are no waiters and wizards waiting here, and it looks empty.
There was only a bald-headed, yellow-robed mage standing in the middle, smiling as they walked in.
The first sentence she said stunned Nolan:
“Welcome, grab Genbao.”
Despite some mental preparations, Nolan was a little caught off guard when he heard Gu Yi called him.
If it weren’t for her “Dragonborn” pronunciation, which was exactly the same as what he had heard in the game, he would have suspected that there was something wrong with his ears.
“Uh, ‘Catch Genbao’? Is this a code name? Or is it similar to a joint code?”
Tony Stark’s small eyes wrapped in bandages had big doubts.
“You are also welcome, Mr. Tony Stark. Don’t be so surprised to grab Genbao. With your wisdom, it shouldn’t be too difficult to guess the answer?”
Nolan shook his head and asked tentatively, “So, is all this a plan between you and a certain demon ‘there’?”
“No, it’s not that simple.”
Gu Yi waved his sleeves and looked at Tony: “Modu, take this guest to rest first. I have something to talk to Mr. Li.”
“Wait, your honorable ‘Gu Yi’, I don’t want this mage to touch my wheelchair!”
Tony hurriedly stopped him, thinking about listening to Nolan’s secrets for a while longer.
What did this yellow-robed mage say?
‘Devil’!
It sounds like a certain feeling!
It’s a pity that the black-faced Mordo did not obey his client’s wishes at all. He pushed up the wheelchair without hesitation and ran away, leaving Gu Yi and Nolan alone in the hall.
When the two figures disappeared completely, Gu Yi smiled and walked to the side of the case.
She picked up the teacup and teapot, poured a cup of tea for Nolan, and began to tell the story:
“One day about three years ago, as usual, I was wandering in the big world. Between the changes of the world, I came to a strange place.”
“Nin Star?”
“No, you said that I have been to Nairn later, but not this time. That space is full of indescribable monsters, mysterious flowers, and endless books…”
When she described it like this, Nolan felt that he was a little enlightened.
He couldn’t help but shuddered: “Shouldn’t you be talking about… Mora’s ‘Dictionary’?”
“That’s right.”
In the next second, Gu Yi confirmed his thoughts:
“That is a **** from another world known as ‘Hermaeus Mora’.”
There seemed to be admiration on her face:
“It can be seen that you are indeed a real warrior. After seeing that weird world with your own eyes, you can still communicate with me in a calm state of mind.”
God is such a ‘warrior’!
Nolan still remembers the first time he played this old VR game and accidentally entered Mora’s ‘Alien’ world, he was almost not scared to pee by the scene, and his skin got goosebumps! !
A strange pool, a pile of books that move without wind, and a monster with countless tentacles on its face…
And what happens when the protagonist accidentally falls into the pool…
His original profound concept of the term ‘Cthulhu’ also originated from this.
It’s just that he is different from Gu Yi. Compared with personal experience, VR equipment is still less exciting; let alone the difference between games and reality.
So Nolan shook his head again: “It’s not like you said, I’m just an ordinary person. What’s next?”
“Hermaeus Mora is very curious about our world~www.mtlnovel.com~ This may be due to his pursuit of knowledge?”
Gu Yi fell into thinking, as if thinking about the scene of the day: “But for some reason, he couldn’t come here in person. So after negotiating with me, he decided to exchange some knowledge of that world for an opportunity. “
Nolan understood in seconds, this should be Gu Yi’s self-effacing words.
Maybe it was after a ‘friendly exchange’ between the two sides that Mora made this kind decision: “So he ‘sent’ me here?”
“Yes. He said he had an agreement with you, and you promised to serve him.”
“Clam?”
When did this happen?
Nolan was completely stunned, he didn’t remember what he promised.
Suddenly, he thought of a past event, that is, a main quest that must be done in the old game: the first contact between the protagonist and Mora in “Outstanding Insight”.
At this time, Mora will give the player two options:
To be his son-in-law, to serve him;
Or justly refuse.
“But I obviously choose the second option every time?”
Nolan couldn’t help but wonder to himself.
Thinking about it was useless, he decided to ask Gu Yi:
“I don’t know about this. After coming to this world, I didn’t receive any tasks. Besides that, did he have any other requirements?”
“Yes. Have you finished your tea?”
Some doubts, but Nolan answered honestly: “Yes.”
Master Gu Yi waved down, and a portal that was still flashing with sparks appeared in front of him:
“He wants you to go back and see him after you find me.”
