Chapter 65: Spirit of Ashes

The next thing was much simpler.

After getting Xu Nian's assurance that he would never hurt them, they told him everything they knew.

It turned out that they were indeed a pair of twins. The elder brother who spoke first was called Bordong, whose Chinese name was Zheng Lun; the younger brother was called Borsi, whose Chinese name was Chen Qi.

The reason why their Chinese names were different was that their father Bornan was very obsessed with an oriental classic before the disaster, so he named his twin sons after a pair of characters in it.

Xu Nian had never heard of it, but just thought it was a little funny, so he ignored it.

Then came the key points of what the two said.

Because they were twins, they had the same mind. After the disaster, they were stimulated by the mysterious energy and had the ability to communicate directly with each other.

If it was normal times, the two might be very excited that they had special abilities, but now it was the era of disasters, and their abilities had no combat power at all. Let alone protecting their families, it was difficult to protect themselves.

Until the Goddess of Glory built the city wall and established the last refuge for mankind, they wanted to escape to the city wall with their father, but they were still attacked by deformed monsters.

In the end, their father died, and the two were fortunately rescued by a man named Gert and brought back to the City of Aiden.

The two were still young at that time, and they didn't know that Gert was a bishop of the Corpse Eater Cult. Until they grew up, when they learned about the cruelty of the Corpse Eater Cult and wanted to escape, they were beheaded by Gert and their bodies were placed in a crystal coffin.

As for why they chopped off their heads, the two were not very clear, but they vaguely remembered that Gert said some sacrificial words.

Finally, there are some things about the Corpse Eater Cult. According to the two, the Corpse Eater Cult is a very large, strange and evil sect. Its headquarters is located in the distant West Continent. There is only one branch in this East Continent, which is the Corpse Eater Cult Branch in Aiden City. Gert is the bishop of the branch and the highest-ranking person in charge on the East Continent.

As for the red cardinal mentioned by Zhang Heng, the two knew nothing about it and had no idea that there was such a person.

After listening to the two's statements, Xu Nian asked some other questions, and after making sure that the two knew nothing, he took out Dret's notebook.

Since Xu Nian got the notebook last time, he tried to open it, but strangely, no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't open it, so he put it on his body temporarily.

"Do you two know this?"

Brother Bordon floated in front of Xu Nian and looked at it for a while, shaking his head and said, "I haven't seen this, but my brother and I have seen other priests use it when we were in the branch before. It seems that some seal has been planted."

"Seal?"

Xu Nian's eyes lit up: "Is there a way to unlock it?"

"I don't know."

Bordon seemed a little embarrassed, touched the back of his head, and apologized: "Respected sir, I'm sorry that I can't help you, but my brother and I have told you everything we know."

Xu Nian nodded, put the notebook back in his pocket with disappointment, and then smiled: "Okay, I promised not to hurt you and I will never break my promise, you can do whatever you want"

"Wait."

Before Xu Nian finished speaking, Bordon Bordong hurriedly said: "Respected sir, I wonder if you can do us a small favor?"

Xu Nian raised his eyebrows, but still said lightly: "Tell me."

"Well, actually"

Bordong hesitated a little, but after noticing Xu Nian's impatience, he hurriedly said: "Sir, it's like this, although my brother and I don't know how you reunited our souls, if you don't care about us, we will soon dissipate and return to God's arms."

Xu Nian chuckled: "That would be great, God's place is much better than this hell on earth."

Bordong smiled awkwardly: "Sir, you are joking, my brother and I still have unfulfilled wishes, so it's not good to bother God now."

Xu Nian rolled his eyes.

Bordon coughed lightly, looked at his brother behind him, and pleaded: "Sir, I would like to ask you to burn my body and my brother's body into ashes, and then turn us into ash spirits, so that our spirits will not dissipate, and you will have two ash spirits with special abilities."

Xu Nian looked at Bordon in astonishment, and it took him a long time to react to what he meant, and said in surprise: "Do you know the forbidden black magic of ash spirit?"

When he heard Zhang Heng talk about the use of ashes before, he heard Zhang Heng mention the forbidden black magic of ash spirit. According to Zhang Heng, ash spirit is actually to summon the spirit of the dead through the ashes of the dead, and control these spirits through the ashes for his own use.

But unfortunately, Zhang Heng did not know about this forbidden black magic. Although he was curious, he did not ask more.

Seeing Xu Nian's excitement, Bordong was shocked and couldn't help but said happily: "Yes, my brother and I made a deal with a priest of the branch, and we were lucky to know this forbidden black magic."

As he said, he was even more excited: "Sir, I hope you can help us brothers. Although we brothers don't have much combat power, we can communicate directly with our minds, which is hundreds of times stronger than any phone."

"Moreover, my brother and I also know that there are three sets of precious weapons and equipment stored in this temple. If you like, you can take them."

The wife watched with a smile, especially when she heard Bordon talking about the effect of the Spirit of Ashes, a complex flashed in her eyes, and she whispered: "Dear, they didn't lie to you. As long as the Spirit of Ashes is completed, they will rely on you to live. If you live, they will live, and if you die, they will die."

Xu Nian's body shook, and he looked at his wife in shock and said: "Wife, how did you know?"

The wife smiled slightly: "Of course I heard it from my father."

"So that's it." Xu Nian said.

Bordon looked at Xu Nian talking to the air and couldn't help but feel a little scared. He stuttered, "My Lord, who are you talking to?"

"No one."

Xu Nian interrupted Bordon and said seriously, "Okay, I promise you, but before that, what do you mean by storing three sets of weapons and equipment here?"

Bordon still looked at the empty space where Xu Nian had just spoken with fear, and then whispered, "It's the equipment made of special materials prepared by Gert for the three Samurai Knights. If you like it, I'll tell you where it is and you can go get it."

Xu Nian's eyes lit up and he hurriedly said, "Where?"

Bordon looked in the direction of the crystal coffin and pointed to the lantern hanging on the wall in front of the crystal coffin: "That's actually a mechanism. My brother's head was chopped off first, so I was lucky to see Gert move there."
