Langdon stood under the towering dome of the abandoned conference hall staring at Lae's gun
Tipping.
Robert, are you with me or against me? The words of the royal historian echoed silently
Langdon's mind.
There was no answer that Langdon could answer, he knew that if
He said yes, he would have abandoned Sophie and if he said no, Ting would have no choice but to kill them both
Langdon's long years of teaching did not provide him with relevant skills
On how to deal with a confrontation at gunpoint. But classrooms have taught him to answer questions with serious paradoxes. When a question has no answer, there is only one answer that is true. The gray area between Yes and No.. Silence
Langdon stared at the Kritx he held in his hands, and decided to evade the answer.
Without taking his eyes off the carpetals, he retreated back into the emptiness of the vast hall.
Neutral ground, and hopefully his focus on the Kretex, has given Tig a signal that cooperation
With him was a bad prospect, and that his silence told Sophie he didn't abandon her.
Meanwhile, he was buying time to figure something out.
That was Teague and the Aye, and that was Lucky.
I feel illiterate in my decision. The British historian hoped that the Great Teacher's touch of Tex would push him to feel more guilty about his contents and to tickle his academic curiosity into overruling another account, forcing him to realize that his failure to conquer
The key stone could mean the ferment of history itself.
Langdon, looking at Sophie, who was at the other end of the room, thought
His shoulders for the puzzling password that will open up the Kreticus is his only hope to trade Tippeg for Sophie's release. If she can edit the map, Ting will be ready
To parley. Langdon tried to force his mind to focus on this dangerous task. He left his mind to fly the many astronomical images found in Newton's tomb.
You're looking for a royal ball that should have been on his grave.
It tells the story of a pink body and a womb that carried a soul in his heart.
Langdon turned his back on everything that was going on in the hall and walked to the high window, he did
It's inspired by anything from her tinted glass of Mosaic. But he never reached the conclusion of putting yourself in Sauniere's mind, Langdon incited his mind, and began contemplating the university garden. What
"Who he thought could be the ball that should have been on his tombstone? Images of stars, comets, and planets shone in the heavy rain, but they were all ignored by soniere.... He was not a man of natural science, but a man of human science, art and history, the sacred female. The rose.... Miriam Magdalene. The collapse of the female gods.... The Grail novels have always portrayed the Griffin as a brutal prostitute dancing in the dark.
Dark... Hidden away from the frame. Your whispering in your ear tempts you to take a step forward and then thicken in the clouds
Langdon, looking at the trees and listening to the rustling, felt her merry presence.
Everything around him was clear and simple. As a high-rise mist fantasy, it was the branches of Britain's oldest petal tree that carried flowering flowers with five petals, all gleaming as a Venus. Now, the gods were in the garden, dancing in the rain, singing songs of all ages, and peeking out from behind the buds as if they remembered. Lavedon had the fruit of knowledge growing beyond his hand At the other end of the hall, Sir Lei-Tieng watched the bug
That's exactly what I wanted, Tying thought. He'll come to his senses and do what I want.
LONG AGO, TING SUSPECTED THAT LANGEFDON COULD HOLD THE KEY THAT LEADS
To the grill. It is no accident that Tiping started his plan on the very night that Langdon was supposed to meet Jack Sauniere. And by listening to values, Tying was certain that the man's eagerness to meet Langdon on individuals was only one thing.
The draft of Langdon's Mysterious Book struck a deep chord.
Langdon had stumbled on a fact by accident, and Sauniere was afraid to expose it to the mullah.
Ting was almost certain that the Grand Master had summoned Langdon with the aim of silencing him.
It 's time to tell her secrets! She' s been silent for so long
TING KNEW HE HAD TO MOVE FAST. Silas will hit two birds.
With one stone. He will prevent Sauniere from convincing Langdon to hide the truth and will ensure that by the time Tying has the key stone, Langon will be in Paris if
Tipping needed his help.
The meeting between Silas and Saunier that would take the latter's life was very easy to plan. My ransomer.
Information about Saunir's greatest fears. And the other day Silas called Sauniere as a very troubled priest, Mr. Sauniere, but I need to talk to you right away. Although I shouldn't violate the sanctity of confession, but in this case I felt compelled to do so "A man who claims to have said some of your workers just confessed to me Sauniere's response was tense but cautious. My workers died because
"Unintended Research". The police report about it was crucial, "In a car accident," Silas said, putting this in his words to Sauniere in
The hook." The man who spoke to him said that he had forced them off the road and their car fell into the river
Sauniere's silence didn't say a word.
Mr. Sunyer, I wouldn't have reached you directly, except that man said Shana made me.
I fear for your safety. And shut up for a second. The man also mentioned your granddaughter, Sophie. So he started moving down the river. Farmer Silas.
Ban would come to see him at once in the safest place the values know, his office in the Louvre. Then the cobbler would describe her guessed that he was in danger, completely forgetting his meeting with Langon But now Langdon had parted ways with Sophie on the other side of the
Hall, Ting felt that he managed to keep the couple apart. Sophie stayed there challenged, but Langdon obviously could see right where he was trying to work out the password.
He knows how important it is for the grizzly to open up the latex, said Sophie Broad. Even if he can do it.
Tying was looking at Langdon still pointing his gun at Sophie. It was a pretty good one.
I'm sure now he'll have to use his weapon. Although the idea upset him, he knew he would not hesitate to say it if she continued to act this way. You 've given her more than a chance to do right.The crow is bigger and more important than any of us
At that point, Langdon stood up and bluntly said, "The shrine...." And he looked at them and looked at them.
Of hope shining in his eyes.
I think I know where to look at Newtons tomb, yes, I think I can find
The password?
"Almost selling, flying for joy, where, Robert... You tell me?
"Sophie seemed terrified. No, Robert! You're not gonna help him, are you?
Langdon came at them in stride with the Kreticus in his hand, and he's settled.
"No," he said firmly, and he gave Leigh a hard look. Only if you are released will the fight that has illuminated Ting's face turn into apparent pessimism. We've come a long way.
"Steps from getting to us, Robert, will you start playing me? I never want to mess with you, but this is a cop.
I will take you to Nyon's mausoleum so that we can open the Kritx together. "I will not leave this place," said Sophie insistently, with her eyes glazing. "If
"My grandfather left this latex to me, it's not for you to decide to open it. Sophie, please! You're in danger. And I'm trying.
"! To help you.
And how is that? By revealing the secret my grandfather died to preserve? He trusted you.
"! Robert. And I met you.
The horror in Langdon's blue eyes was now so that Ting could not hide the opacity.
That drew on his face as he saw them turn against each other. Langdon's attempts to look like a naughty man were truly pathetic. Hoar is on the verge of uncovering the most important secret of human history, and instead of taking care of it, he has occupied himself with a woman who has proved unworthy of the task.
"Sophie, Langdon called her a beggar. "Please... You should go.
She shook her head stubbornly. Not until you give me back the Tex or throw him on the floor and see him.
It's completely shattered.
What?" Langdon gasped.
Robert, my grandfather would rather lose his secret forever than see it in my hands, he said."
Sophie seemed to have tears in her eyes, but she did not cry. And you stared right into my eyes." Pick me up if you want, I won't leave my grandfather's legacy in your hands. Ting had his gun on her.
For 2a, Langdon shouted, raised his arm, stretched out the Tex and was about to throw it at me."
The hard stone floor. "Lai, if it ever occurred to you to shoot, completely trust that I will throw this on the ground without responding," Ge Ting. "This trick fell on Remi, and it won't. On me. I know you so well, you could never do that.
Yeah, I know you, and you need a better mask than the one you're trying to cover up.
Now your face, my friend, you cheated for only a few seconds, but I can see now that you're lying, you have no idea where the puzzle solving is hiding in Newton's tomb. Yeah, yeah.
Langdon had hesitation in his eyes and tried to hide it, but Tipping was able to spot it.
His eyes tell a lie. A pathetic, desperate trick to save Sophie. Ting felt very good, very hopeful, Robert Langdon.
I'm a lone knight, surrounded by frivolous spirits.
Langdon and Sophie now pose a great threat to Ting and the grill.
A coffin. The solution would be difficult for him, but he knew that he would do so in good conscience. But the only challenge in this case will be to convince Langdon to put the key stone aside so that Ting can put this farce to rest peacefully, a mortal token of confidence from me said, and lower his gun, which was aimed at Sophie.
"Put the key stone aside so we can talk softly.
Ting had read his intention to do evil and knew that their hour had come. At the moment.
Where I'm going to put the carpetics away, it's going to wake me and Sophie. He heard her heartbeat pleading to him in the silent Yas, Robert, that this man was unworthy of a stranger... Don't put it in his hands, no matter what manna.
Langdon had reached a decision a few minutes ago while standing alone at the window
Overlooking university park. You have to protect Sophie... AND YOU HAVE TO PROTECT THE GRAIL
Langdon almost screamed desperately. But I don't know how to do it, for those moments of desperation were accompanied by a clarity of vision that he had never known before. If
Truth before your eyes, Robert, did not know where this vision came from. The grill don't make fun of you.
Yes, you beg for a noble spirit.
So Langdon bowed down as a slave, kneeling to his master a few yards from Tipping, and then lowered.
"Hey Robert, Tipping whispered, put him on the floor."
Our Abbey Langdon moved from the ground to the top, where the vast space was under the dome of a hall.
Meetings. He smelled more of Langdon's kneeling, and he got his eye down on Tipping's gun at him.
I'm sorry, for any...
In a blip, Langdon leaps up, waving his arm up and comes
By the Crityx, forcefully up to the dome.
Lai Tiping didnt feel his finger pulling the trigger, but Medusa fired a bullet
Dot in the hall like a thunder. Langdon's position changed from kneeling to full erection, but the bullet exploded on the ground near Langdon's feet. Half of Tinch's infuriating brain tried to point his gun back at Langfon, but the more powerful half dragged his eyes up to the dome! The key stone
Time seemed to have succeeded a mutant who had become a lame scholar.
THE WHOLE TING IS THE KEY STONE, AND WATCH IT REACH ITS RISE.. He's been swinging in space for moments. Then you flip down in a lol motion, he descended to the stone floor and with all of Ting's dreams and hopes collapsing. It shouldn't hit the ground! I can hold on.
In it! Tipinach's body moved instinctively. He threw the gun, walked forward with his staff, raised his soft hands, extended arms and fingers, and suddenly grabbed him in the air. When Tying lost his balance, he fell forward with all his might
With the Kretex, but he felt it fell too fast. FIRST, THEIR EXPANDED ARMS HIT THE GROUND WITH CARPTEX, AS THERE WAS NOTHING TO MENTIFY HIS VIOLENT FALLING. THE GLASS BREAKS INSIDE AND SCRATCHES TINY TO THE GROUND
A whole moment, Tying didn't breathe, and he stayed on the cold ground, staring at me.
The marble cylinder, which was in the palm of his hand, touched the glass vial inside. The air caught a sharp scent of vinegar, and he felt the cold liquid flowing out from among the tablets listed on his hand. He was overwhelmed by a strange horror. No! It was just dripping vinegar and tippeg imagined how the papyrus would melt now, Robert, you idiot! The secret was lost. Ting felt his own hair and he wept madly. The grill is gone. And everything is ruined.
Incredibly stunned by what Langon does, Tin tries to open the cylinder by force, eager to have a glimpse of the obsolescent date before Job is forever. He was shocked when the key was pulled on both ends of the stone, as the cylinder opened, he gasped and looked inside. It was empty, except for shards of glass.
That wetted his vinegar. There was no cryopy decomposing, and Tipping rolled over and looked up, staring. Banddon. Sophie was standing next to him, and I pointed the gun at Tipping. Ting looked back at the key stone in astonishness, and noticed that the disks were not the letters
It was arranged to form the word apple.
That's the ball that Eve bit off from, "said Langdon Berud. "Where I got angry.
"The Lord. The first step, a symbol of the sacred fall of the female, Tina's hair actually hits him in the head as simple as it is. The ball that should have been
The tomb of Nin is not the pink petals that fell from heaven and fell on Newton's head, and was the revelation that inspired him to deposit his life. The fruit of his work. The pink pulp with the light in it!
Youdaoplaceholder0 Reuert, Tum Tipping, who is still affected by the shock. I uncovered it, where."
The map?
Langdon extended his hand into the pocket of his coat, without blinking an eyelid, and carefully drew a thin papyrus. Only a few yards from where Ting was lying, Langdon answered the manuscript and looked at it. After long moments of silence, Langdon had a smart smile on her face.
He knows! Ting's heart yearned for this knowledge. It was his life dream.
In front of it all, tell me, "Cheerleader, please. Oh, God, please! Why is it too late?
And when Langdon ended up hearing steps in the lobby next to
Wrap the papyrus manuscript and put it in the forehead again.
Don't do that, please. Tien said as a beggar, and tried to stand but without merit."
When the doors were violently opened, Pizo Fash entered the room like a bull into the arena and began sweeping the place with his brutal eyes in search of his target, Leigh Tig, lying powerless. He pulled his gun out of his cover on his arm and turned to Sophie Agent Novo, I was very relieved to learn that you and Mr. Langdon were all right." You should have heard me when I asked you to come to the police station. The British police entered on Fash's heel, arrested the agitator, then put him down.
With handcuffs.
"Sophie seemed surprised to see Fash. How'd you find us?
Fash referred to Tipping. He made a serious mistake showing up his ID when
He walked into the church, and the guards heard a police report saying that he was a courtier for justice, that he was in Landon's pocket. A map that directs
"To holy lime?
While the police picked him up and carried him outside, Ting threw his head back and took
"Screams madness, Trobert told me where she is.
When Tping passed through Langdon, he looked him right in the eye. "The sheriff is the only one
Find the grill. Lay, you know that.
