Chapter 3028 Interrogation in Prison
The various movements caused by the first aid ceremony had already awakened the comatose Isaac. Facing the people who were looking at him in the prison, Isaac did not say a word, but stared straight at Rhodes with his unyielding eyes.
Perhaps in the previous battlefield, he was ultimately defeated by Rhodes, but the strong will of a hero that existed in his heart would not be defeated so easily.
After cleaning up all the traces left by the first aid ritual, Isaac was also led by a group of undead guards and was imprisoned in a separate cell in the deepest part of the dungeon. In order to prevent him from having any possibility of escape, not only were there nearby Demon banning rituals were everywhere, and even his body was bound with thick chains.
"Evil Lord of the Undead, if I can escape the current predicament, I will not let you go so easily!"
Staring into Rhode's eyes that were deep enough to see through people's hearts, Isaac let out a hoarse growl. His eyes were filled with undisguised anger and hatred. If eyes could kill, Rhode would be like this now. I'm afraid I've died many times. Even though he was bound by shackles, his body was still tense, as if to tell everyone that once he found an opportunity, he would not let anyone on the scene go.
Looking at the angel who refused to give in at all and had already made up his mind to die, the expressions of the undead guards in the dungeon changed slightly. If it weren't for His Majesty Rhodes' order, even the threat of death would not be able to do anything in the face of such an extremely fierce force. Only by completely transforming the enemy into an undead creature can you feel at ease if you make it surrender. If he is allowed to continue to exist, sooner or later he will leave a lot of trouble.
Rhodes naturally understood this truth, but he couldn't just order him to be executed. In addition to being an angel of the Holy Judgment, Isaac is also a powerful hero who has awakened his own will. His heroic specialties make anyone afraid of him. To execute him like this will bring extremely serious consequences. Big danger.
The battle of the Angel Legion's raid on the Magic City has ended, but the battle between Rhodes and the fate that wants to eliminate him has just begun.
The Holy Archangel Isaac is a sinister trap set by fate. Once it is not handled properly, it is likely to fall into an irreversible situation. Even the time realm cannot save the situation. Rhodes must be careful.
Facing the very troublesome Isaac, before Rhodes could reply, it was the Angel of Andorra beside Rhodes who spoke first: "Isaac, you are not allowed to talk to my lord Rhodes like this. Please be merciful, you have already turned into an undead creature, and there is no chance for you to be rude like this."
"Godmother of Andorra, you were just bewitched by those villains, but you can rest assured that fate will definitely save you and me." Faced with the persuasion of the angel of Andorra, who was also his own godmother, Isaac said without changing his expression, He was not affected by the content of the words at all.
It was only at this moment that Rhodes slowly spoke: "Do you think fate will come to save you? Save a hero who broke fate? Fate will not do this. The reason why you ended up where you are now is all because of fate. Granted, it was fate that drove you to where you are now, and ultimately made you die in my hands. But even fate could not have imagined that I had already seen through those tricks."
As if he heard the meaning of Rhodes' words, Isaac snorted coldly at this time: "So what? If the evil in the world can be eradicated, even if I sacrifice my life, I will do it." No matter what, I don’t care what fate does to me, as long as the final result is good and my sacrifice is meaningful, that’s enough.”
Listening to Isaac's firm words, Rhodes was slightly surprised, but also couldn't help but secretly said it was a pity in his heart. He originally wanted to use fate to use Isaac to persuade and try to instigate this angel, but now it seems The plan seems to be unworkable.
The Holy Angel's heart is so firm that it surpasses most of the heroes in Rhode's memory. Only a very few immortal heroes, such as the former hero Tanan, or the beast in hell Tularion, can survive in this world. Compete with it out of pure will.
Such a firm heroic will also means that all the methods Rhodes prepared previously are ineffective against him. No matter it is the influence of mental magic, or torture and torture, they cannot shake the will of a true hero. Isaac's heart was stronger than steel, which undoubtedly caused Rhodes a considerable amount of trouble.
"Since when can heroes be born among angels? How can fate allow a hero like you to stay in Yunzhong City?"
After shaking his head, Rhodes changed the topic. Heroes are born in creatures of all races. Generally speaking, the weaker the adult individuals of the race, the easier it is for heroes to appear. Similar to the giant dragons, even without any training after adulthood, there are powerful races with sixth-level strength. However, there are very few heroes born among them. Looking at all the giant dragons in the world, there is only one giant dragon hero. , that is the hero Moriel who transformed into a big red dragon.
Because of this, Rhodes was a little surprised by the angel hero in front of him. Theoretically speaking, it is indeed possible for a hero to be born among angels, but the possibility is extremely slim, even small enough to be ignored.
The strength of angels is comparable to that of giant dragons. The possibility of a hero being born among an already powerful species is extremely slim. Not to mention that angels have always been with the power of destiny in the clouds, and it is even less likely. To become a hero who breaks fate, even if this opportunity comes, the angel will give up his identity as a hero, which makes Isaac's existence so special.
"What happened to you? What on earth would make an angel give up the power of destiny and choose to become a hero? I don't believe you became a hero for justice or other illusory reasons. There is only one thing that can make an angel a hero, and that is the burning anger." Rhodes asked proactively without giving Isaac a chance to think carefully.
Faced with Rhode's aggressive questioning, Isaac just turned his head to the side and snorted coldly. He had no intention of answering the question and didn't even want to look at Rhode again.
However, as Rhodes asked this question, his heart was inevitably touched, and his memory seemed to return to those things in the past. For Rhodes, this was enough. Isaac might not want to answer these questions, but his heart would not lie. Under the influence of the Peeping Eyes, Rhodes could see what he was thinking in his heart. As I thought, I saw Mingyue City burned down by the Doomsday Judgment, and I also saw the Demon King of Hell who was questioning him angrily.
In the previous battle, Rhodes also used the power of the Peeping Eye to vaguely see the unusual things that happened to Isaac, but what he saw was not real. Now that there is no interference from the noisy outside environment, Rhodes' heroic specialty has also been greatly improved in strength. This time, with Rhodes' gaze, everything in Isaac's heart can be seen clearly in front of Rhodes.
After understanding all the things that happened to Isaac, Rhodes took a deep breath and couldn't help but close his eyes. The experiences that happened to Isaac and made him a hero were too harsh. , if Rhodes hadn't seen it with his own eyes, even Rhodes wouldn't believe that such a thing could happen.
"You actually met Lucifer... It seems that he played a big role in making you a hero." Rhodes said slowly.
Listening to Rhodes' words, Isaac's expression changed slightly for a moment. Even the angels in the Holy City in the Clouds rarely knew about his encounter with Lucifer, but Rhodes said it in one word. Regarding this matter, his tone was also very determined. It didn't seem like a test between words at all, but he was completely sure of the matter.
"Can you guess what I'm thinking?" Recalling the various rumors about Rhodes, Isaac undoubtedly thought of something, and his expression became ugly. If there is anything worse than falling into the hands of the enemy, then Undoubtedly, he fell into the hands of an enemy who could see through his own thoughts, and Rhodes happened to have that ability.
"What I can see is not just your thoughts." Faced with Isaac's surprised eyes, Rhodes simply replied, "When you think about it, the memories hidden in your heart, the precious memories of your past, I can see it all clearly if I want to."
Seeing a hint of doubt in Isaac's eyes, as if he didn't believe these words at all, Rhodes couldn't help but sneer: "I now understand why you are so fearless of death in your heart that you even long for it. That's not because you're not afraid of death, or you just want to trigger your heroic specialties, but because you want to atone for your sins in this way."
This time, Isaac's expression completely changed. He no longer had the calmness that Rhodes had when he first saw him. His body was slightly trembling: "What on earth are you talking about?"
Rhodes just looked at him and said: "Sanya's death is not your fault. You don't need to blame yourself for her death, let alone pay for it with your own life. You just gave her the angel of justice." Judgment.”
Under the stimulation of Rhodes' words, Isaac could no longer maintain his previous calmness. He immediately let out a loud roar, broke away from the chains that bound his body, and rushed straight towards Rhodes.
The Sania mentioned by Rhodes was the girl who was taken to the Griffin House by Isaac. She had full trust in Isaac, but in the end she failed to escape the doomsday judgment sent by Lucifer. The reason why she failed to escape that trial was that Isaac listened to the devil's words and finally gave up completely, leaving the hope of living to another girl.
After the incident was over, Isaac was always filled with self-blame for this, thinking that it was his fault that led to the girl's sacrifice. Even though he became the holy angel who judges the world, every time he thinks back to that moment, He still couldn't get out of the situation at that time and only hoped to use his own life to make up for the mistakes he had made.
All the thoughts in his heart were now exposed to Rhodes' prying eyes. The excited Isaac suddenly exerted force, but he couldn't get rid of the shackles of the chains on his body. He could only pull the chains and make crisp sounds. He could only sit back and gasp.
"You have no idea what I've been through." Isaac said in a deep voice.
Facing Isaac who refused to change his words, Rhodes just shrugged: "I have told you, I have seen what happened to you. Didn't you realize that you have always mistook the target of your hatred? Really? It was not you who caused Sania's death, but Lucifer who brought down the Doomsday Judgment. You must and should hate him. How about this, I will kill you now, and you use your heroic skills to punish Lucifer. How about revenge?”
Listening to Rhode's proposal, Isaac just glared at him, with no intention of compromising Rhode: "That was a decision I made myself, and it had nothing to do with Lucifer. Lucifer just wanted me to see it. When it comes to people's ugliness and cowardice, it is humans themselves who really do those things. It is you, what you did is the most evil. If I want revenge, I will also take revenge against the villains in this world."
Isaac's answer was naturally not beyond Rhode's expectations. It would be great if he could persuade the Holy Inquisition Angel so smoothly. However, Rhodes just gave it a simple try and did not hold out much hope. You can only put your mind on other things.
"So, it's not that you are not afraid of death, it's just that for you now, you no longer have the hope and courage to live. It seems that the hero's specialties can only be triggered by sacrifice, which is more in line with the ending of a hero."
Looking at Isaac in front of him, Rhodes saw clearly all his experiences and thoughts, and easily found the crux of the problem. Isaac was not seeking death. If there was hope for him to live, he would Everyone is willing to live, but with the sacrifice of Sania in Mingyue City, the hope in his heart has been destroyed, and what Rhodes has to do is to help him find that hope again.
As if he noticed the malicious intent in Rhode's eyes, Isaac immediately became alert: "What are you going to do? If you are going to execute me, then do it now."
However, Rhodes just shook his head: "Will you be executed so that you can trigger that heroic specialty? I will not be stupid to that point. Not only that, I hope you can live well. Since you no longer have any chance to live, hope, I have no choice but to help you find a new hope."
As he spoke, a circle of blazing flames appeared around Rhodes: "What's the name of the girl you rescued from Mingyue City? Let me think about it, is her name Irene?"
Isaac was shocked. Just as he was about to say something, Rhodes' figure had completely disappeared in the flames.
