Chapter 878: Responsibility(1/2)
When Li Gaolou heard this sentence, he suddenly felt like he was hit by a heavy hammer in his mind.
He thought of a possibility, a possibility that he had never realized before.
"You stayed that library?"
Taking a deep breath, he asked at the Earl Nichola opposite him.
This time, Count Nicholas nodded directly.
"Yes, I stayed there. All the books, including Sunstone and the way to defeat the Nicholas cannibals, were kept there."
Without any hesitation, he said directly.
This made Li Gaolou stunned. He did not expect that the truth of the matter would be like this.
I had been thinking before, who would be the owner of the library?
It is actually possible to leave such a precious thing in this castle!
So now, he found the answer, but this answer was really surprising enough.
"Split personality?"
Continuing to look at Count Nicholas, Li Gaolou asked, this was the only reasonable explanation in his opinion.
Especially this is not the first time that Xiao Li has encountered two mental powers hidden in one body.
However, Count Nicholas shook his head.
"It's not a split personality, in fact... we have two thoughts since we were born. I am a human, and he is an underground cannibal. It's just that because the way my companions treat me was too cruel and ruthless, he kept occupying it.
The body's initiative…”
Shaking his head gently, Count Nicholas became more and more sad.
Li Gaolou was silent, but he was able to understand the person opposite him.
It's very simple. He has read the records, so he knows what kind of trauma caused him because Count Nicholas's parents came from different ethnic groups.
On the face in front of him, you can still see the scars of his facial features being destroyed by force.
So, his pain is imaginable.
Compared to the pain suffered on the body, the most important thing is the heart.
"Later he built this castle?"
Feeling that he was finally about to know the truth, Li Gaolou asked.
"Yes, you must remember what I said... This castle must be destroyed, and the Sunstone will be left behind the ninth door forever!"
Suddenly, Count Nicholas lowered his voice and said.
His words stunned Li Gaolou.
Especially the serious and solemn tone made Li Gaolou feel indescribable uneasy.
"Cannifers, they are ready to move! They have been underground for too long, I think... they may want to come out."
Sure enough, Count Nicholas threw a big bomb after following him.
This message is not an exaggeration to describe it as a bomb.
After seeing how terrifying these monsters are here, Li Gaolou could imagine that if the ninth door really opened forever, how many monsters would rush out from here.
Similarly, human beings will face unimaginable crises.
Just thinking about that kind of thing makes people feel very scary.
Following behind, Count Nichola suddenly jumped and pulled the box off the chain the next moment.
In an instant, the eyes of several people were focused on this box.
According to what was said before, the box... is the treasure of Count Nicholas.
Without any hesitation, Count Nicholas opened the box himself.
After opening it, there was a key inside!
Yes, it's a key.
"I will give you this key. From now on, you will be the owner of this castle. I hope... you can keep the ninth door closed forever!"
There is no doubt that this is the secret of Count Nicholas.
The so-called secret is actually always exposed.
It's this castle!
Standing there, Li Gaolou suddenly felt a huge pressure and responsibility.
Originally, he came here to find opportunities to make money, and on the other hand, he was to complete his own trial mission.
Who would have thought that in the end the entire castle would belong to it, and there was such an entrance to the underground cannibals.
"And you?"
Subconsciously, after taking the key over, Li Gaolou asked.
Count Nicholas himself shook his head.
"I'm going to die soon. Since I was born, our thoughts were connected. He was dead and I couldn't live long."
There is no sadness, there is only calmness.
Li Gaolou was silent, and suddenly felt that this person had an indescribable greatness.
Since he was born, he suffered all kinds of pain and grievances because of human relations.
However, to this day, he always knew that he was a human, not those dirty underground cannibals.
Even if it is the end of life, it is told Li Gaolou to stop these things from going out and protect humans!
With this thought, Li Gaolou nodded.
This action is equivalent to a promise he made to Count Nicholas.
This promise represents oneself and also represents a responsibility.
He smiled again, Count Nicholas's old face seemed to have happened a little differently than before.
"Can you tell me where Su Lan is?"
Knowing that Count Nicholas would lose his life soon, Li Gaolou asked quickly.
This is his last chance.
However, after hearing this question, Count Nicholas hesitated for a moment.
"That girl was sent to the depths of the cannibal tribe, and I don't know... what's going on with her now."
What Nikola said was already very tactful.
After hearing this, Li Gaolou was completely stunned.
Even though he thought of many results, he did not expect that it would be the worst.
Su Lan was sent to the deepest part of the cannibal.
In other words, God knows what kind of cave it is, and how far it is from the ground.
Subconsciously, Li Gaolou wanted to find her.
This impulse is a completely instinctive reaction.
However, Count Nicholas's voice rang out.
"It's time for you to leave now, otherwise your scent will attract more powerful cannibals to come. Even if it's sunstone, it won't have that much effect. That girl... may be helpless."
Seeing Li Gaolou’s thoughts, that’s why Nikola said so.
Hearing this, Li Gaolou remained silent.
He didn't know what to do, and this helpless feeling... made him feel uncomfortable, but he had no choice.
Especially in his ears, he could indeed hear the cannibal roars again.
You know, there was no movement at all for so long before.
Now that I speak up again, these things must have been the courage to be raised again.
If he really insists on doing it, not to mention whether he can save Su Lan, the ninth door alone cannot be closed forever, which will bring unimaginable danger to people outside.
Finally, after experiencing extremely painful struggles, Li Gaolou nodded.
And Count Nichola closed his eyes at this moment.
At the same time, the roar deep in the cave was also even louder.
"Let's go! Brother, it's too late if we don't leave."
He was afraid that Li Gaolou would have random thoughts and had other ideas, so the man in the suit and Asda both urged him.
They are not like Xiao Li, and they have so much strength.
