To Four Thousand Years Later

v3 Chapter 48: walk in the sky

"How do you feel now, kid?" Phoenix said leisurely.

The two scimitars of the Phoenix Demon God were restored to long wings shining red. At this moment, she was pulling Leo to fly in the sky, passing through Frank at an extremely fast speed, and flying southward.

Maybe people on the ground can see a red meteor flashing across the sky. Such meteors have also appeared frequently in the past few hundred years. Leo is maintaining a strange posture at the moment, flying extremely fast in the air. Ruoyi was caught by Phoenix's arms, like lifting a fat dog. Pulling, except for being caught out of breath, it is no different from being on the ground. If seen from a distance. It's like hanging a bomb under the bomber. Originally, Phoenix wanted to buckle his shoulder like an eagle, but Leo was too scared. So under his strong request, Phoenix still used a more secure carrying method. Undoubtedly, this was the first time in Leo's life that he left the earth and enjoyed the magnificent experience of flying in the air. But Leo had little energy to look down on the scenery.

After the results of Leo's interrogation, Phoenix burned all the blood in the body and the room, and the ashes were blown out by her wind. Under her raging fire, not to mention the nuggets of the corpses, not even a single ashes could be found. However, Archbishop Leo, who had already found out the truth after slaying the enemy, was not very happy at the moment. The reason is also very simple - the truth he asked made him a little hard to accept.

He was indeed sent by the Pope to kill Leo. But not because the Pope wanted Leo's life.

Instead, the Pope wanted Leo to kill the man. The assassin claimed that the poison pill held in his left hand was a potion that allowed him to focus his attention extremely for a short period of time. Just bite the outer shell, wait for a few seconds after taking it, and then it will burst out with extremely fast speed and strength, ignoring the pain, so as to ensure that the assassination is foolproof. Because the medicine doesn't last long. He was about to take that "secret medicine" after hearing the sound of the door opening. But Mr. Assassin didn't even have time to take the drug, and was stabbed by Phoenix teleporting over with a knife in the back. Miraculously, Leo found that he thought he was telling the truth. The medicine contained the pope, so Leo's mood became very strange. Because Phoenix has identified that the pill is an extremely poisonous secret medicine. As long as it is taken, the muscles will become paralyzed and weak within a few breaths, and the movements will immediately become sluggish. Then he had difficulty breathing, his heart stopped and he died. In the end, Leo gave the pill to the assassin, and he soon showed symptoms of poisoning. Just being pinned by Phoenix's knife, he just didn't swallow his last breath. Leo couldn't help but wonder in his heart.

In that case, he would take off his coat after entering the door, and then walk to the bed. And this time the assassin had already taken the poison, and the poison had probably just begun to work or hadn't worked.

After being frightened, he will use magic to try to force him back. Since it is indoors and the situation is urgent, the only magic spell that Leo can use among the magic spells he has mastered is "knock down living things" and that is to immediately arouse electric light at the fingertips, by touching the heart or nearby A simple magic spell that makes people stunned in the area. Occasionally, it will cause sudden death, but the probability is not very high. Because it has to touch the heart, or at least touch the part not too far from the heart to be effective, so the magic spell used as a body protection is not of much value, and it is more used as a punishment spell to punish disobedient heavyweights. criminal. But at this time, the assassin was about the time when the poison began to corrode the body. His movements will quickly become sluggish, and his heart will be touched by him.

Then, of course, he fainted. And in a coma, the poison flowed through his body and took his life. And there is a 30% chance that he will be scratched by the poisonous dagger. If he was poisoned, he should run away immediately and try to find the Pope for help; if he was not poisoned, then he should be in the panic of accidentally killing and planning to hide the body. After all, even if he is an archbishop, once he is found guilty of homicide, he will still be excommunicated and sent to the border every day.

So... what does Adrian want to do? Leo feels that he seems to have vaguely grasped the Pope's thoughts. Now I have the handle of the Pope, which is the three things that he took in Goboga, murdered Du Juanhou, and secretly hid the royal blood. And the pope also promised himself the position of chief bishop, intending to develop himself into a confidant and even the next pope. In other words, the current self already has the Pope's handle, but the Pope doesn't have his own handle... Is he trying to create a handle?

Leo sighed deeply: "It's true. I'm tired.

"Do you hate power that much, Liyu?" Phoenix asked coldly. Leo frowned, and after thinking for a while, he slowly shook his head: "No, it's not, Lord Phoenix. I'm not experiencing evil power...in fact, I'm afraid.

I know too many examples of wise and kind people becoming vile and cruel once they are empowered. And I don't have the self-confidence to ensure that the current self will never change "Of course you will." Phoenix said calmly

"Using my king's words... the person standing on the **** will take it for granted that there should be a smooth road behind the mountain, because he is climbing up with such difficulty. If he does not believe this, it will be difficult for him to convince himself Do everything in your power to climb up.

Why did it become like that?

Leo was stunned for a moment, with mixed emotions in his heart: "My lord, can you explain in more detail?"

Phoenix said leisurely, and began to lower the altitude: "We are here.

"Where are you?"

Egypt, Alexandria.

Phoenix began to dive, and his voice became a little muffled: "Don't worry. I'll send you back before dawn.

Seeing the scenery below begin to grow rapidly, fear and excitement welled up in his heart, dispelling Leo's previous worries. He couldn't help shouting loudly: "In the world, only God's extreme speed can achieve this miracle!"

"No"

Unexpectedly, Phoenix denied it: "My king said before, 'One day, everyone will be able to act like you and walk freely in the sky. Geography will no longer divide the people on the earth, and this is the people. People can do it, only relying on the fire of their wisdom passed down from generation to generation, which is becoming more and more blazing... Is this the prophecy of King Solomon?" Shocked by the boldness of the words, Leo's voice couldn't help but become much softer.

Phoenix just kept silent.

"Probably. This is what he said when he was Jesus, and I don't really understand it," Phoenix said softly, "but I hope that will be the future.
