Eliad looked at Reicelle's stubborn face, as if she saw the girl who was as tough as a cattail grass more than ten years ago.

After a moment of distraction, Eliad slowed his tone: "Rachel, I know what you've done over the years, and I understand that you want to find a path to freedom for the alien race. However, things are not as simple as you think...... Just by supporting a king to ascend to the throne, it will not fundamentally solve the current predicament of xenos. ”

Rachel seemed to have something to say, but she opened her mouth and eventually gave up her words.

"Don't talk about that. Eliad picked up the book on the table again, opened it and said, "I'm interested in these microbial theories written by Terrence, and if you have a solution, I'd like to see more books of this type." ”

Rachel nodded slightly: "I'll send someone to buy some more textbooks from the University of Twilight and send them here." ”

"Parasites, bacteria, viruses...... It's hard to imagine that there is such a wonderful thing in a space the size of a needle's eye. This theory opened up new fields of biology, and many difficult problems will be solved by this discovery. Eliad moved his gaze from the book to a model of a microscope not far away: "Theodore, if he were alive today, must have rejoiced in this great discovery." ”

"Elder Eliad, do you know that the founder of the microbiology doctrine is none other than the Holy King of Twilight. ”

Eliad turned his head and looked at Richel, a smile on his lips: "Of course I know that it was the man named Todd, who started from scratch and founded everything he is today...... You know, Rachel, whenever you mention that person, there's always a real joy on your face. ”

"I, do I have one?" said Rachel, turning her head to the glass jar, surprised to see a big smile on her face.

Looking at the woman's expression, Eliad instantly understood something.

"Richel, how is the Holy King of Twilight treating you?"

Richel's smile slowly faded, leaving only a hint of gloom on his face: "He...... Treat me well. ”

Eliad watched her expression and asked, "Really?"

Rachel nodded firmly, "Really." ”

Eliad stroked his beard, thought for a moment, and said, "You left Twilight City because he was concerned about your identity?"

Richer shook her head slightly: "No, I left him on my own initiative. ”

Eliad closed his eyes and let out a long sigh: "Alas, is it because of your body?"

Rachel didn't speak, just lowered her head.

"The ritual of resurrection is used to transfer the soul of a person, and the recipient body should preferably be a corpse that has been dead for no more than 12 hours. But this ritual has several biggest problems, one of which is that the body after the transfer of the soul, although it can speak and move, looks like an ordinary person, but some basic physiological functions have lost their effectiveness. Female fertility is one of them......"

Richel's mouth was full of bitterness: "I understand what you said. ”

Eliad touched his beard and said helplessly: "For a kingdom, the heir is indeed the most important thing. I can understand that you offered to leave him...... After all, it was you who helped the Holy King to build the city of Dusk West into what it is today. To leave like this is to give up everything. ”

Rachel smiled and shook his head: "A craftsman has carefully crafted a perfect work of art, no matter how much this craftsman likes this work, there is no need to forcibly occupy it." For this work, it is the desire of this craftsman to find an owner who can appreciate and care for it. ”

Eliade touched his beard's hand and stopped. He looked at the calm woman in front of him in surprise, and said incredulously: "Richel, you have changed. Or rather, you've grown up. In the past, you only had hatred and insecurity in your heart, but now, I see a strong-willed woman. ”

The old man stood up and said happily, "During the time you grew up, I was always worried, worried that you would become that woman one day......"

Seeing that Eliade was about to stop talking, Richer smiled and said, "I am me, she is her, I will never ......"

Before he could finish speaking, a long, continuous sound of trumpets came from outside the room.

Richel's smile froze on his face, and his composure and confidence slowly faded from his face.

Eliad looked out the window, his brow furrowed, his face serious.

The sound of this horn represents...... Elinor...... It's back. ”

——————————————

Twilight City, northern part of the port area, abandoned shipyard, late at night.

The werewolf Aldnan stretched out his sharp claws, grabbed the top of the stone fence, bowed his back, and his legs suddenly exerted force, and his body climbed over the high wall with a light posture.

Looking at the dark building in the night, Aldenan's eyes were fierce and his face was solemn.

"Hey, hey, Aldenan, help me, I can't get up!"

Hearing this rough, muffled voice, Aldnan rolled his eyes and turned to look at the orc Carol in the corner.

"Carol, perhaps, the task of winding would be more suitable for you?"

Carol craned his neck, looked at the werewolf on the wall, and said angrily: "I finally found the trace of that bastard, how could I just wait here?!"

Aldenan said with a headache: "Your body is too heavy to climb ......"

There was a loud bang.

Carroll punched a large hole in the stone wall, and with a step of his right leg, he went straight through the hole.

Looking back at the stunned Aldenan, the triumphant Carol blew the dust on his fist and said happily: "It's still this way, it's straightforward." ”

"You idiot with muscles in your head!" Aldenan jumped off the wall and gave Carroll a shudder: "Such a loud noise, it will wake people up!"

The two of them looked at the abandoned shipyard in front of them, and there was no sound except for the sound of the waves crashing against the reef and the wind blowing across the sky.

Carroll looked at Aldnan suspiciously: "Is there a problem with your intelligence, that guy named Wayne Dunlop will really be here?"

"There can be no mistake with intelligence. ”

Aldenan tiptoed close to the abandoned shipyard and looked through the cracks in the dilapidated doorway to see a huge dockyard, but overgrown with weeds and rubbish.

"The shipyard belonged to a chamber of commerce in the north, and I heard that it was originally intended to be used for the construction of medium-sized cargo ships, but it was later confiscated by the Bank of the West to pay off the debts because of the high debts. Aldnan said, as he walked through the planks into the dock, "I spent a great sum of money to get the following information from the best intelligence dealers: The scholar who inoculated us that day, Wayne Dunlop, a professor of microbiology at the University of Twilight, had been seen around here. ”

Carol squatted down, lifted a plank, looked at the insects and cockroaches scattered around, and said disappointedly: "It looks like no one has been here for at least a year, nothing!"

Aldenan lay on the ground, put the wolf's ears to the ground, listened for a while, got up and said to Carol, "There is a sound underground. ”

"Underground?!" Carol stepped on the stone under his feet, "The sea is under our feet, do you hear the sound of the sea?"

"Transformed into the current form, the ability to distinguish sounds and smells is a hundred times better than that of ordinary humans. I'm sure the sound from the ground is definitely not the sound of water!"

Carol scratched her head: "So what do we do now?"

Aldnan gestured to the water in the middle of the dock and made a jumping gesture.

"Jumping into the sea from here?!" Carroll's eyes widened, "Are you crazy?!"

Aldnan shrugged, "Do you still want to find Wayne Dunlop? ”

With that, Aldenan jumped into the dock's pool without hesitation.

Karloff shook his head helplessly, pinched his nose, and jumped into the sea.
