There was no response to Colin's words.
The yard was quiet, only the sound of the breeze blowing the leaves.
Colin showed sarcasm and said again:
"What? Do you think I'm cheating on you?"
Having said that, Colin walked slowly towards the southwest corner.
At the same time, the coercion of the souls of the legendary Paladins poured out like flowing water, and instantly enveloped the entire courtyard.
The breeze suddenly ceased, and even the fallen leaves in mid-air remained motionless.
This piece of time and space seems to be locked by Colin.
In the next second, Mr. Go, who finally couldn't bear the pressure, rose into the sky and fled without looking back. .
"Since you're here, just stay!"
Colin laughed and disappeared in place in a flash.
I didn't see how he moved, and when he reappeared, he was already by Mr. Ho's side.
Mr. Go was so frightened that he was about to turn around to fight back, but found that Colin's big hand had already grabbed the back of his neck.
Any struggle becomes futile under absolute strength.
So, the legendary sixth-order mage who stirred up the situation in the Radiant Empire was carried back to the yard by Colin like a chicken.
Bang!
Colin threw Mr. Ho on the ground and said with a smile:
"Okay, Mr. Ho, now we can have a good talk."
Mr. Ho probably also recognized the situation, got up from the ground without haste, brushed the dust off his body, and straightened his collar before saying:
"Duke St. Chapman, I actually wanted to talk to you for a long time."
When Colin heard this, he rolled his eyes and said sarcastically:
"Really? Last time you were in Bailu City, you ripped my heart out as soon as you met. Does that mean you want to have a good talk with me?"
Mr. Ho was not embarrassed, and explained lightly:
"Lord Duke, just like a lion won't talk to an ant, and a tiger won't cooperate with a rabbit. You really didn't have the right to sit down and talk with me on an equal footing..."
Colin interrupted with a sneer, "Then are you still qualified to talk to me on an equal footing?"
"No." Mr. Ho said without hesitation, and at the same time leaned over slightly to show respect for Colin, but said, "However, since you didn't kill me immediately, it means that I have value to you. , and that's the basis of our conversation."
Colin pouted and said coldly:
"Yes, I do have some questions I want to ask you, but don't think you can take this as a threat."
"Then you always have to give me a promise, right?" Mr. Ho said humbly, "otherwise, even if you could kill me, you wouldn't be able to get any information from me."
Colin smiled slightly and said:
"No problem, I have always liked a fair deal. But you, I have to kill. However, I can help the Saint Theon family return to the political stage of the Radiance Empire. For this, you can trust my ability and credibility. "
Colin knew that for a wise man like Mr. Hog, it was meaningless to lie. His hatred with Mr. Hoo was doomed. In that case, it was better to open up and say it, so that Mr. Ho could believe his sincerity.
Sure enough, Mr. Ho nodded calmly after hearing this, as if he had accepted his fate, and said:
"Lord Duke, can I make one more small request."
Colin shook his head and said:
"You answer my question first. If the answer can satisfy me, I can consider asking you to make some more requests."
"Okay, please ask."
Colin strolled to the Kurdish mage's coffin, lifted the lid, looked at the corpse lying quietly inside, and asked:
"You came back this time for Kurd's body, right?"
"That's right."
"What's so special about his corpse? Also, what's the matter with the forbidden curse of rejuvenation?"
Mr. Ho raised his head and looked directly into Colin's eyes. The expression on his face suddenly became extremely solemn, and said:
"My lord, have you reached the legendary realm now?"
"Yes."
"Then you are the mortal closest to the gods." Mr. Ho's tone suddenly became a little erratic, "Then have you ever thought about where the power of knights comes from?"
Colin's eyes flashed and he said:
"According to the Church, the power of knights comes from the gift of the Lord of Radiance."
"Yes, it is a gift from the gods. Therefore, knights can overcome the shackles of the sixth-order, unlike warriors, or mages like us, who cannot touch the sanctuary for life." Mr. Wu suddenly clenched his fists and asked in a deep voice Said, "But have you ever thought about why it is only possible to advance to the sanctuary for the profession of the gods?"
"Mortals need the gift of gods to set foot in the holy realm." Colin quoted the words of the first Pope, Myrcella.
This is also the Church's explanation for the question of Mr. Ho, and it is also the common perception of mortals in this world—
Above the sanctuary, it is no longer the domain of mortals.
That is the forbidden area of the gods, and only those who have been favored can step on it.
Therefore, the Paladins have such a high status and prestige in the Radiance Empire.
This is not only because of the extraordinary individual strength, after all, the strength of the individual is limited, no matter how powerful the Paladins are, they can be eliminated by the sea of tactics.
People revere the paladins more because they revere the gods.
After all, in the eyes of the world, a paladin must be recognized by the gods and received the grace of the gods.
However, Colin was never imprisoned by this thought.
He himself is not from this world. He has not been educated by knights since he was a child, nor has he been brainwashed by the church. On the contrary, he has always viewed the Lord of Radiance from a skeptical and even scrutiny perspective.
Therefore, when facing Mr. Ho's blasphemous question, UU Reading Ke Lin said with great interest:
"You mages seem to have different views on this."
Mr. Ho had been paying attention to Ke Lin's expression just now. The reason why he asked such a question was because of Ke Lin's previous actions against the church. At this time, seeing that Ke Lin really didn't care about his blasphemous question, Mr. Ho was completely thorough. sure-
The legendary paladin standing at the pinnacle of the way of knighthood in front of him really does not have much religious belief.
So, Mr. Go showed a smug smile and said slowly:
"That's right, mortals do need the gift of the gods when they step into the sanctuary, but have you ever thought about what the 'gift of the gods' is?"
If he was a devout believer, he would probably be provoked by Mr. Ho's question, but the interest in Colin's eyes grew stronger and he asked:
"Do you know what it is?"
"It's faith."
"Faith?" Colin was a little surprised.
"That's right." Mr. Ho said excitedly, "Archbishop Adjani should have shown you the holy pool in the back room of the church, right?"
"Yes." Colin recalled the holy pool he saw in the basement of the Swan City Church, and the "water" overflowing from it, and immediately blurted out, "Could it be that you are talking about the collection in the holy pool? Believe in the Force?"
