Chapter 50
Adams' hands and feet were locked by huge chains, and his figure was also shriveled, as if he was about to die. He glanced at Suzy weakly and said weakly: "I have answered my question, so I should ask you, how did you come here?"
Susie told the whole story. After hearing this, Adams sighed: "It seems that Roosevelt finally understood the truth. It's really a good person who doesn't live long!"
Susie retorted: "The countess drank the blood of the virgin. When the count found out, he helped his wife hide it. Are these two people considered good people?"
Adams shook his head and said, "You don't understand. This is a conspiracy. Roosevelt and Miss Aker are both very kind people. The real abomination is the witch. She deceived the Countess and became what she later."
Suzy said unconvincedly: "Whether it is a deception or anything, the Countess did that thing. Could it be that the Countess is not pursued just because of a witch's deception?"
Adams continued to shake his head and said, "It's not what you think. In fact, the Countess didn't know that she was drinking virgin blood. She was a kind woman." At this time, Adams's mouth appeared with a smile and his eyes were blurred: "She was really kind. One year, the north of the empire had a severe drought, and the farmers had no harvest. Countless homeless people starved to death on the streets. I passed by and were surrounded by countless refugees. We can't do anything like this. The best way is not to worry about it, because once you take care of it, there will be countless refugees surrounding you, but she still gave everything on her body to the refugees. In the end, if I hadn't driven away the refugees with my sword, the consequences would be unimaginable.
But that's it. She still cried secretly. She thought that if she could bring more finances, she would save more refugees. She was such a kind person, how could she hurt others for her appearance?
Susie did not refute after hearing this.
Adams sighed, "Do you want to hear a story?"
Listen, of course you have to listen. If you don’t listen, how can you trigger the plot?
Adams was silent for a long time, as if recalling: "My father was an ordinary farmer in the empire, without power or power. If there were no accidents, I would be like my father, facing the loess and facing the sky for the rest of my life, or being the most ordinary soldier in the empire, but I was undoubtedly lucky.
That year, the Temple of Holy Light planned to recruit a group of temple reserves. My father signed up for me without my knowledge. Finally, after strict screening, I was honored to become a member of the Temple Reserve.
It is not easy to become a formal member of the church. There are tens of thousands of children recruited in the empire, and only ten will be selected to become official members in the end.
We have to get up early at five o'clock every day to run, pray, and train until eleven o'clock in the evening. Although it is boring, it is my happiest day because she, the countess you call - Ai Keer, also trains with me. Every time I can't hold on, I look at her, and I have infinite power.
Speaking of this, Adams smiled happily: "How great it would be if that day could be repeated! Unfortunately, it only lasted for three years."
In three years, my friends around me changed batch after batch, and she also separated from me. Perhaps she gave me endless strength. After many difficulties and obstacles, I actually persevered and was sent to the imperial capital for the final trial. If I survived the trial, I would become an official member of the temple.
At the age of eighteen, I entered the imperial capital for the first time and saw the prosperous imperial capital for the first time. The conflict with my heart was huge. I secretly vowed that I must enter the temple and make a name for myself. Now, thinking about it, how ridiculous the idea was at that time.
How could I understand that some people are destined to be as brilliant as the sun, leaving us of the same generation behind us.
Of course that person is not me, he is Michael Seus, hehe, do you know what people call him?
The clever Sius.
Sius was born a genius. He was very handsome, mature, very smart, and treated others very well. He was deeply loved by Duke Michael. He made him the heir of the family early on. At the age of fifteen, he was tested to have genius talent.
Such a genius with such a genius in terms of appearance, family, IQ, EQ and talent are all the best. Which girl wouldn't like it?
Speaking of this, Adams looked dim and said, "When a member of the church must give all of his own to the goddess of the Holy Light, we cannot have our own love, the only love in our hearts is God."
Ai Keer has a good fit for the Holy Light Element, and no one is even better than her. If she enters the temple, a female presiding judge may really appear!
But she fell in love with Xius! Think about it, the two most famous people in the imperial capital at that time were Xius and Ai Keer. How could both of them not attract each other?
Akeer loved Sius very much. She could even give up the final trial for Sius, but Sius not only loved her, Sius was too versatile.
Both of them were so proud that neither of them obeyed each other. In the end, Aiko chose to leave Xius and walked with Xius's younger brother, Roosevelt. Later, Roosevelt inherited the title of Earl, Aiko followed Roosevelt, and I finally passed the final trial and became a member of the church. Xius suddenly disappeared. It was not until a few years later that I realized that he had joined the army, starting from an officer with the lowest level, and slowly becoming the commander.
Although I hate him very much, I have to admit that he is indeed the best in our generation.
In this way, after thirty years, we were all old, and Duke Michael was finally about to come to an end. He passed the throne to Sius, but at this moment, something that no one expected happened.
"What's the matter?" Susie asked subconsciously.
Adams narrowed his eyes and said, "The issue of inheritance. According to the law of the empire, Sius has no right to inherit the Duke."
"How is this possible without inheritance?" Suzy was a little disbelief.
"It's true." Adams said with a complicated look: "Sius's mother's surname is Catherine. The Catherine family was originally a family with a very long history, but later it was exterminated because she wanted to overthrow the empire.
At that time, Xius's mother was dead. According to regulations, the descendants of the criminals could not inherit the throne of dukes. Therefore, the old duke claimed that Xius was not born to Forrena (Sius' mother), but on the other hand, he began his plan to kill his other two sons. In this way, even if it was finally confirmed that Xius was born to Forrena, the old duke had only one son.
The scene was cold, and Suxi's heart was filled with huge waves. The tiger was poisonous and she couldn't eat her. How could the old duke do such a thing?
As if thinking about what Suzy was thinking, Adam Su relieved Suzy's doubts: "There is no other way. The Michael family was too powerful at that time, and it could even threaten the imperial royal family. The old duke and the imperial emperor had been fighting openly and secretly for life, and he was about to die, and His Majesty the Emperor was in full swing. If the heir was a waste, it would bring a catastrophe to the family.
Xius was the second child, and there was an older brother above him, but this brother was a waste and could not do anything except nostalgia for the flowers. The old duke personally found a beautiful woman for him and poisoned the woman's body. In this way, Xius's brother died on the woman's belly.
When dealing with Roosevelt, he found a vicious witch. The witch gave Aike a poison to aging quickly. Then he directed and acted as a clergy and told Roosevelt that he could detoxify the poison, but he needed a special material and allowed her to collect it on her own.
The materials collected by the witch are the blood of the virgins, but no one knows whether this kind of thing is useful or not. The witch killed the young girl without telling it, and deliberately exposed flaws, making people believe that it was the young girls killed by the Countess.
Then things went with the flow. The entire imperial capital knew that a countess drank the blood of a virgin for his appearance. Officials from the duke faction demanded severe punishment of the earl, and the old duke even wanted to destroy his relatives for justice.
However, the emperor did not think so. In fact, His Majesty the Emperor has been paying attention to Earl Roosevelt since the death of Sius' brother.
The result was that the old duke was better at it, and he actually thought of destroying his son in this way. The idea of the Holy Light Temple was the same as the emperor. The Michael family's strength was too strong. If Sius was allowed to inherit the title, it would definitely not be a good thing for the Empire and the Temple. So His Majesty the Emperor said that as long as the countess handed over, he would be merciless once. At the same time, the Holy Temple also sent someone to investigate the matter. It was me who was the captain of this mission, but after I found the result of the investigation, there would be no chance to announce it. The old duke told the witch about our whereabouts. We were ambushed and wiped out all the troops. All my team members were killed, leaving me alone. The witch tortured me in her castle every day, wanting to obtain the secret of the Holy Light. Until some time ago, she never came again.
After Susie silently listened to this story, Adams didn't know the rest of the story, but Susie knew it. The Count refused to hand over his wife, and the Empire sent troops to attack him. Maybe the one who led the troops was from the Duke faction and killed everyone, including the Count.
Susie said: "What do you want to tell me about this?"
After hearing this, Adams replied, "I just want to tell these things. I have been tortured by witches every day over the years. If I hadn't had a divine stone on my body, I might have been tortured to death long ago, and my body would have reached its limit. I can still survive in the past years, so someone can fulfill my last wish. My last wish is to give my inheritance to my brother's descendants. You can take half of the property inside, but you must hand over a note to them. There is a ring in my arms, and the place where my property is located is in that ring, you can take it yourself.
