Ring

Chapter 77

Rice drove through the fog.At first, Wei Shenzhi could roughly see some pedestrians passing by outside, but gradually, the whole car seemed to be shrouded in fog, like a ship lost in the Bermuda Triangle, not knowing where he was going.

All I could hear was the rumble of the engine.After an unknown amount of time, Rice finally stopped the car, and Edgar motioned for him to follow.

The thick fog was like a smoke bomb, and it was a vast expanse of whiteness. Even Rice, who was leading the way and was about three meters away, appeared and disappeared in the fog.It seems that Edgar stayed close to him in order to prevent them from getting separated.His hands intertwined with Wei Shenzhi's ten fingers until the fog slowly cleared, and a grand and tall castle appeared in front of them.

It's exactly the same as in the dream - Wei Shenzhi commented.The tall castle seems to be made of huge black stones, and it looks a bit dark and old in the torrent of time, but it doesn't seem to be decadent.On the walls of the castle hung great curtains, embroidered with shields with three dragon's teeth.This coat of arms will be familiar to anyone familiar with European history.Even if they haven't heard of Countess Elizabeth's famous and infamous names, they should know the coat of arms of the Black Governor Ferenc.The famous general changed his surname to that of his wife when he married the Countess of Bathory.Therefore, the family coat of arms of the Bathory family is also the symbol of the black governor Ferenc.

Edgar looked up at the majestic castle, and his heart was complicated.When he went to the Holy See alone, he never thought that he would be able to return here one day.But, after all, he came back.

Wei Shenzhi felt the fingers he was holding tightly with him, and couldn't help but look at Edgar.Although his lover's expression was a bit complicated and heavy, there was no dark cloud hanging over his brows.This realization made Wei Shenzhi feel better, so he squeezed Edgar's hand, and the other party came back to his senses and showed him a gentle smile.

"Lord Earl." Rice turned around and looked at the two of them seriously, "The chief executive knows that you are coming back today, so I am afraid that he has made sufficient preparations to deal with you. What's more, Mr. Wei gave Iraq a few days ago Ska is going to make a big move."

"Isaiah Crane Bathory." Edgar sneered, "I think so, I'm sure he's on the other side of the door now, waiting for me to throw himself into the trap." After finishing speaking, He looked past Rice, and shouted loudly at the closed door: "Master Kelan, I didn't expect you to lead the whole family to wait for my return. Flanders is really flattered!"

As if responding to his words, the gate of the castle slowly opened.A middle-aged man who looked to be in his 40s had a ferocious expression on his face, and his falcon-like eyes stared straight at Edgar, as if he wanted to dig out a piece of flesh from his body.However, Edgar's gaze crossed him impolitely, and glanced at the members of the Bathory family standing behind him one by one, then looked at the general decoration in the castle, and commented with some disappointment:

"Unexpectedly, decades have passed, and there is no improvement here." Edgar said, his sarcastic gaze finally shifted back to the Chief Manager's face, "Master Manager, it seems that you are not managing well?"

"Edgar Flanders!" Isaiah Crane's face trembled, and he seemed to be suppressing his anger, "You traitor who betrayed your blood and betrayed Bathory, how dare you come back? ?!"

Edgar chuckled disapprovingly, then waved his hand to Wei Shenzhi, and introduced: "Shen, this is the chief manager of our Bathory family, Mr. Crane." Then he said to Isaiah Keran Lan smiled and said, "As for this eastern warlock, he is my lover."

As soon as this remark came out, there was an uproar among the crowd, and there were many discussions.Everyone's unbelievable eyes lingered on the two of them. No matter Wei Shenzhi's identity as an Oriental, or Edgar's sudden "transferring love", they were all dumbfounded.God knows, when Victoria was taken away by the Lord of Darkness, Edgar was so out of control that he even regarded the entire blood clan as Victoria's "buried"!

Isaiah Crane's face shook again.He stared at Wei Shenzhi firmly, as if he wanted to shrink back from this oriental man who looked no more than 30 years old, but he was wrong.At any rate, Wei Shenzhi has been "trained" by Edgar for so many years, and he is like a fish in water on the business battlefield, so how could he be defeated by such a confrontation of eyes.Therefore, letting the other party stare at him in various ways, Wei Shenzhi just looked back indifferently, as if he didn't take him seriously at all.

At this moment, Kelan was no less shocked than other tribesmen.Ever since Iska came back with injuries all over his body a few days ago, he knew that this oriental warlock was difficult to deal with.Looking at it now, not only does he have high spiritual power, but he can also behave so calmly and calmly when everyone is pointing at him? !

"It is said that Easterners pay attention to etiquette, but this gentleman seems to be an exception?" Ironically, Kelan put on a persuasive tone, "However, Eastern warlocks, I advise you to stay away earlier." The struggle of the blood clan. The Mr. Flanders next to you once swore to go up the mountain of swords and into the sea of ​​fire for the sake of our previous patriarch. But now? Why don’t you abandon her and find a new love? Man, you should leave earlier, we won't make things difficult for you."

That being said, he has already made up his mind that no matter what Wei Shenzhi chooses, this oriental magician will be a disaster and must not be left behind!

Wei Shenzhi glanced at him indifferently, but did not speak, because he knew that at this moment he would leave everything to Edgar.Sure enough, Edgar immediately answered his words:

"Between me and the Lord of Darkness, Victoria chose the latter. I can't say much, after all, great power is what everyone yearns for. However, since she is unwilling to be loyal to me, there is no need for me to be loyal to her." One and all, such a simple truth, I believe that all the ladies who have read "The Second Sex" and "Sexual Politics" will understand."

"The Second Sex" was written by Simone de Beauvoir, the mother of French feminism. It mentioned that in the relationship between men and women, the patriarchal society confines women to the "one-to-one" object status, thus trying to use marriage. relationships to strengthen patriarchal social domination. "Sexual Politics" was written by the famous American feminist Kate Millett. In the book, there is an attack on the fact that women are required to be "single and faithful" to their dead or missing husbands.

No matter where, no matter what race, no matter what era, people will always worship the values ​​they believe in unconditionally, or selectively ignore some other intellectual considerations, such as now.After moving out of Beauvoir and Millet, Wei Shenzhi obviously felt that the attitude of those ladies towards Edgar suddenly improved by an unknown number of levels.This reminded Wei Shenzhi of the reason why Buddhism was so prevalent in ancient India—Buddhism has scriptures, which is contrary to Hinduism, which advocates the caste system, and advocates that all people are born equal.Therefore, many people voluntarily gave up Hinduism and chose to believe in Buddhism, because a person will believe in what he has-this is the most basic manifestation of individualism and an expression of subject consciousness.Faith can make people blind, and it will make people unconditionally worship the values ​​​​that they believe in, such as now.

When Wei Shenzhi was thinking about some irrelevant things, Edgar and Chief Kelan over there had already lost sight of each other——

"Flanders, don't try to confuse people as soon as you come back! Don't forget what you did to the Bathory family back then!"

"You are the chief executive, right? Back then, you joined forces with the De Rais family in order to bring down Victoria. I believe that after hearing that you have done this, the ladies in our family will probably not treat you any more. What a good feeling."

"Edgar Flanders!" The chief executive became furious, "You betrayed the blood clan, and you still have the face to challenge me?"

……

A tearing battle ensued, and Wei Shenzhi stood aside and listened to them tearing each other with great interest.It has to be said that Edgar's former president of the Western Open was not for nothing, and he was able to make the chief executive speechless almost every time.But the chief executive was also firm, repeating what he had said before in various ways, and Edgar refuted him in different ways.

Therefore, the level of the two is not at the same level.

While commenting, Wei Shenzhi looked at the Bathory family.The faces of many people are no strangers to him.Although he didn't know their names, in Edgar's dream, he had a chance with them.Wei Shenzhi's eyes swept across the chattering crowd one by one, and then met Iska's eyes.Her gaze still looked confused and charming, and when she met his gaze, she showed a meaningful smile.

Wei Shenzhi was a little puzzled, but the other party's smile seemed harmless, so he also smiled back.And Della was also standing among the crowd, looking at him and Edgar with some concern.

……

"Even if you inherit the title, it's not your turn to be a traitor!" Edgar was slick and eloquent, and he said that a deadly battle was like a court debate. Kelan couldn't stand it anymore, so he had to drop it. This sentence, "I once served Lord Victoria, so without my approval, you can never inherit the title and become Earl Bathory, unless you have the ability to defeat Iska, Savannah, and Luisa!"

After hearing this, Edgar laughed three times.Just when he was about to sarcastically say something like "Why, you're scared at this moment, you're going to hide behind others", but suddenly he heard the silent Eastern Warlock step forward two steps——

"Since Master Kelan is willing to give others a false hand, then Edgar, as the heir to the title, you will lose your status if you fight in person." Wei Shenzhi smiled and stepped forward, slowly pulling out the saber from his waist, "Next, Wei Shenzhi , willing to fight the three ladies for Edgar Flanders Bathory. What do you think of the chief executive?"
