Blood of Mercury

Vol 2 Chapter 53: flaw

An old man sat in front of Roland, turning the pages of the book quietly with his back to Roland.

Roland squinted and looked at him vigilantly through the dim candlelight.

His gray hair was sparse and sparsely curled over his shoulders. His shoulders were slightly hunched, and he wore a silver-white ring on the **** of his right hand.

The candle light was too dim, and Roland couldn't see what was engraved on his ring for a while - it seemed to be some runes, and it was a bit like a thorn, with a mysterious glow on it.

Roland held his breath and thought silently.

The unidentified old man appeared to be a scholar. But Roland knew that his identity was definitely not simple.

The ring on his right hand, although he could not see the rune on it, Roland had already recognized the ring.

This is one of the status symbols of the Great Wizard of the White Tower, representing an academic wizard who specializes in academic research.

This mithril ring, called the Ring of Wisdom, is an enchanted accessory made by the Starcaller. The two witchcrafts "clear thinking" and "memory" are permanently enchanted on it. Although the level is not high, it is a very sincere prop for a great academic wizard who has been engaged in academic research all the year round.

I heard that if you sleep with a clear mind, it will cure insomnia, but Roland doesn't know if it's true.

Then, although the shirt the old man was wearing was not high-profile, it could even be too domestic, but in Roland's soul vision, the faint blue starlight on it was almost blinding—

For Roland, this dress has violated some taboos.

This is a star protection enchanted with soul dust as a raw material. It is a robe lining assigned to a star wizard of the golden rank. It has the ability to heal soul injuries, save mental control, and reduce physical consumption. Although it doesn't have many combat attributes, this piece of equipment has already turned blue and purple, and it belongs to the most advanced item of the exquisite class.

Later, when Isma was running around, this rare equipment that could increase the resistance to illusion suddenly became popular. It was because of this that Roland also remembered this bulk.

Although Roland didn't know why he was wearing a shirt to see him, at this time Roland already knew his identity.

He is undoubtedly an astrological wizard. And a great wizard.

Even if there are the most great wizards in the astrological system, it does not mean that the great wizards in the astrological system are worthless. After all, he is also a professional at the gold level, even if he is not very good at fighting. It is definitely enough to crush ordinary silver-level professionals.

It's hard to find a gold-level professional... It's also difficult for Farina.

Roland chuckled and said slowly, "I guess you won't let me go."

"right."

The old man answered succinctly.

"I guess you won't kill me."

"right."

"Then I have nothing to say to you."

As Roland said this, he closed his eyes slightly: "If you don't kill and don't let go, talking to you is a waste of saliva."

"You can't say that. Brother."

The old man laughed, put down the pen gently, closed the pages in his hand, stood up slowly and turned around.

"I might be with you."

Ha ha.

Roland's mouth twitched.

Since you can say this, it means that you are definitely not with me.

"It hurts her. Found such an obedient old dog like you."

Roland chuckled lightly, mocking recklessly.

His mood is very good. Because Farina made a fatal mistake, that is, she underestimated the ability to sue the crow.

After all, she is not a death crow, and I don't know how much a death crow with the blood of mercury can do.

After Roland put the second talent on the mercury torso of the death department, Roland's body could be partially transformed into mercury, and then condensed into various attacks.

This was reflected when Roland attacked Bernard before. Not even limited to his limbs, Roland could even control the mercury to stab out of his chest into an awl or a short sword.

Conversely, Roland could also turn his hands and feet into mercury to escape from the chains.

Facing Roland, killing him is much easier than capturing him. Roland's immortality is temporarily ineffective after being stunned by cold damage. In other words, it only takes an extreme cold shock or a frost burst to instantly kill Roland. Wait until Roland gets a death torso of level 5 or higher. Roland can even turn his entire body into liquid and shape it at will.

To seal Roland, the really effective method is to stuff Roland naked into the full-coverage armor, then seal the gaps and joints with iron juice, and coat the outside with a thick layer of ice. In this way, the coma caused by the cold and the weakness caused by the strong metal allergy can form an inner cycle, sealing Roland permanently until someone helps him touch the seal from the outside.

Knowing that Roland was imprisoned with metal chains instead of the popular activated vines in Caral, this is enough to show that Farina has a certain degree of understanding of him.

After all, Farina is a Druid. Her mind set makes her subconsciously solve all problems in the way she is good at.

But at this moment, a strange light flashed in Roland's eyes.

He noticed that when he said, "It hurts her," there was a momentary blankness on the old man's face. Although his expression quickly recovered. But Roland would bet that the old man hesitated for a moment when he said "she".

……What does it mean?

Does it mean that Roland's guess was wrong? In fact, it wasn't Farina behind him, so he was so surprised when he heard unexpected lines?

No... On the other hand, it is also possible that he did it on purpose to show Roland. He just wanted Roland to think that Farina was not behind him, that's why he made such a gesture to distract the suspicious Roland's thoughts.

Can be reversed. It is also possible that the old man was worried about whether Roland was cheating him. Roland didn't know whether the boss behind him was a man or a woman, so he asked this question - as long as Roland had the ability to identify lies, whether the old wizard admitted or denied Roland's speculation, it would bring more information to Roland.

Perhaps based on this consideration, the old wizard hesitated for a while, and then decided to avoid answering: "I'll introduce myself first..."

"My name is Tanas."

"Tanas? Tanas of the White Tower?"

Roland rolled his eyelids slightly and asked in surprise.

The best teaching wizard of the White Tower, the old wizard who claims to be able to remember every student, has now been reduced to this field?

The result was unexpected~www.wuxiaspot.com~ Tanas also showed a surprised expression on his face: "What? You know me?"

you know me?

you know me?

wait, no—

The moment he said these words, an incredible possibility exploded in Roland's head like a bomb.

Roland's eyes suddenly widened, and after a few seconds of maintaining an expression, he showed a strange smile one by one.

That's right... At that moment, Roland connected everything together.

The guy in front of me is not Tanas at all, but something else with Tanas memory!

Most likely... the enemy of Kabbalah--

—Or rather, Roland thought he was dead from the beginning, Edward! (To be continued.)
