Chapter 592: Above All Living Beings
..
The scene in front of him was extremely terrifying.
Other than its terrifying appearance, Matthew also felt an extremely sinister and cold aura from the dried corpse.
It was definitely not a natural coldness.
Instead, it was a power that came from a high-level domain.
Facing Isabelle's cold gaze.
Matthew hurriedly said,
"It's not that I'm unwilling.
"I just don't understand why."
Isabelle shook her yellow face, her pale eyes filled with a terrifying resentment.
"He betrayed me and imprisoned me!
" Most importantly, he betrayed the Alliance and betrayed Yin!
"The original intention of the Seven Saint Alliance was to exile the gods and protect the world. However, he and his supporters chose to cooperate with the gods. They are all traitors!
"Traitors should die!"
Matthew was shocked, and his scalp went numb.
He naturally knew that Yin was referring to the Calamity Mage. In the entire Alliance, Isabelle was the only one who was willing to use her original name to address that legendary great existence.
Matthew had sensed the discord between Edmond and Isabelle.
But he did not expect it to be this serious.
Isabelle's killing intent and resentment were definitely not fake.
She had been enduring it all along.
Matthew had no doubt that Isabelle would kill him if he rejected her request!
Hence, he lowered his head and said,
" I understand. To me, I will always be on your side."
Isabelle's resentment subsided a little.
She tilted her head and looked at Matthew.
"You're very smart, and you know what's good for you.
" But I must warn you that Edmond is only one of the traitors. There are many others I'm talking about, including Fei Ziben, Soria, and that unfathomable fellow."
Matthew shook his head.
"I know very well that I have no choice."
Isabelle laughed.
" You really don't have a choice. I'm just telling you to be mentally prepared. Once you board my ship, it won't be so easy to get down in the future.
"However, you don't have to be too nervous. Although Edmond is in charge of guarding me, he can't do anything to me. As for my current state, it's actually my own doing.
"I told you before.
"Our world is long dead.
"Only by letting himself die could he see the truth of this world.
"So, Matthew, are you willing to see the truth of this world?"
Matthew pondered for a moment.
He looked calm on the surface, but the pressure in the depths of his heart was already full.
A moment later.
He found a way to deal with it.
"I'm willing.
" However, I wonder if I can only see the truth by letting myself die.
"I hope I can make my own judgment.
"I want to use my own eyes to perceive this world.
"It was still too early for me to witness the essence of the world.
"I hope to make a decision only after I have mastered great power.
"I have to be at least Legend rank, right?"
After saying this.
Matthew was actually a little nervous.
Isabelle smiled weakly.
"Very good, a very cunning delaying tactic. Not only did it show your loyalty to me, but it also tactfully rejected me.
"You're much more tactful than Ronan was.
"But in terms of scheming, you're not as good as Blinken.
"You are the middle ground between the two of them.
"I hope you're not a mediocre person."
Matthew forced a smile and heaved a sigh of relief.
However, he thought about it carefully.
Isabelle probably wouldn't turn him into something like her in the short term.
She might need to develop her own strength to fight against Edmond.
Then, before that.
Not being discovered by the headmage was the top priority.
It could only be said that Legendary powerhouses were all shrewd people. They said one thing but meant another.
Matthew wasn't sure if his answer would satisfy Isabelle.
However, the latter's state of mind was quickly restrained.
The bad luck and dark light that filled the sky dissipated.
Isabelle turned from a dried corpse into a peerless beauty again.
Her lips were rosy, and her skin was white.
Her bright eyes and white teeth were extremely moving.
Where was the terrifying and sinister appearance of the dried corpse from before?
" I'm not interested in low-level spells. I planned to teach you after you became a Legend, but since you're already a Tier 4, I'll give you some pointers."
Isabelle said lazily,
"You must remember that the true source of the Path of Undying is not in the Underworld but in the Rootless River.
" There's no trace of the Rootless River. There's only one person in the Alliance who's been to the Rootless River, and that's the Holy Mage Link."
Matthew recalled the name.
Margaret had once introduced him to Lord Link, who was also one of the three Heavenly Mages. He had the power of a Holy Mage, but because of the Intelligence Mystery Lock, he had always been stationed in the Astral World and suffered the destruction of starlight.
"When you become stronger, you can go to the astral plane to find Link and ask him to guide you in the Rootless River. Link is a neutral person, so he will give me face and help you."
Isabelle said.
Matthew nodded and asked curiously,
" Since Mr. Link has been guarding the astral plane, why has the power of the Alliance of Seven Saints always been involved in the outer planes?"
His current mentality was also very clear.
In any case, he was already on this ship.
What was wrong with asking a few more questions?
