Chapter 659: Kindness from the Old Ancestor

The furnishings in the house are not too luxurious, but they are by no means the layout of an ordinary farmhouse.

There was only one person inside, an old lady sitting in a precarious position, with silver hair all over her head, and exuding a kind air all over her body.

There are some people, especially old men and old ladies, although they don't know each other, but at first glance, they can make people familiar and good.

The old lady in front of her is this kind of person.

Sean felt a strong sense of familiarity and intimacy in him, and a figure seemed to overlap with itβ€”the grandmother who had doted on him the most in his previous life.

This feeling has nothing to do with physiognomy and comes entirely from the breath.

The second feeling that the other party gave Sean was old age.

This sense of old age does not come from the body, but from the soul.

Judging from her face alone, this kind old lady would never be more than seventy years old, and although her face had deep wrinkles, she did not have the age spots peculiar to the elderly.

It comes from the old breath of the soul that has gone through vicissitudes, but it can't be concealed, just like the old pine tree full of wrinkles on the top of the mountain.

The reason for this feeling is that in addition to the breath emanating from the other party's soul, it is also somewhat related to Sean's preconceived sense of knowing the other party's true age.

"Sit down and talk. The old ancestor said to Sean very familiarly, "Don't be restrained, just like in your own home here." ”

"Thank you, Ancestor. Sean was as good as a stream, respectfully found a seat, and sat down under the other party's hand.

Before the formal meeting with his ancestor, Sean imagined countless possibilities.

At swords' points!

Infighting!

Spooky and thriller!

I didn't think about it, but there was a bit of warmth and harmony in front of me.

It seems that he is not facing an old monster with a bad reputation, but a blood relative he hasn't seen for many years.

In this mild atmosphere, Sean's body and nerves, which were as tense as a bow, seemed to be soothed a lot.

Could it be that the other party did it on purpose?

This is also a kind of spell used to dispel one's vigilance?

This thought startled Sean, and the vigilance that had just been a little relieved was raised again, and the speed of the spell energy around him increased, feeling the fluctuations of the spells around him.

But nothing was found.

The old ancestor's body, although it exuded powerful suffocating spell energy fluctuations, but this situation was not intentional, much like when he first came out of the mage tower, because his body retained too much spell energy, far beyond his own control, so he involuntarily emitted outward.

This kind of spell energy fluctuation is free and disorderly, and does not form an obvious spell loop, so naturally it will not form a spell that affects people's consciousness.

What's more, that familiar feeling did not arise after entering the small courtyard, but only after seeing the ancestor himself.

Could it be that I am thinking too much, this is really just a blood bond?

The old ancestor turned a blind eye to Sean's overreaction, and said kindly, "What are you doing sitting so far away?" Come, come, sit closer, let the great-grandmother take a closer look." ”

The kindness that the ancestor revealed in his expression or his eyes did not seem to be disguised, but completely from the heart.

"What the hell!" Sean couldn't help but scold in his heart, this atmosphere was too weird, he would rather have the scene at the beginning full of gunpowder and solve the matter cleanly, rather than the confession scene with a weird atmosphere in front of him.

Especially the blood relationship between the two parties, it is quite fantastical, before this, the two should have only heard of each other's existence, but they have never seen each other.

Well, at least I haven't seen each other, but if the other party hasn't seen me before, it's hard to say.

Relying on the other party's magic cultivation, even if the other party stood in front of him before, he might not be aware of it.

Judging from the other party's expression, she is definitely not a stranger to herself.

Although this atmosphere was a bit strange, Sean did not refuse the other party's request in the end, but still took a stool and leaned forward, although he did not show too much closeness and did not refuse.

Take things as they come.

The other party wants to stage an emotional drama where grandparents and grandchildren recognize each other, so he will accompany her to act.

Anyway, the other party has already set up the stage, and the atmosphere is almost the same, and the feeling of overlapping with the shadow of his grandmother in his previous life is also convenient for him to enter the play.

He wanted to see what tricks the other party wanted to play.

The old ancestor tilted his head, held Sean's face, and nodded again and again: "Like, really like, it's five points similar to your father!"

The old ancestor's eyes seemed to be a little moist.

Sean also took the opportunity to take a closer look at the ancestor, the other party's stature is not particularly tall, and he is only in his early sixties, so even if he sits on a chair taller than himself, he will still be half a head shorter than himself.

Judging from the body shape and facial contours, when she was young, she must be a beautiful woman with one top.

Somewhat unexpectedly, the style of the clothes on her body was not the style of the ancient Andes Empire, but the style of the eternal night wind, the kind of military uniform that fits better.

It's no wonder that after I entered the house, I had an indescribable sense of disobedience, and my feelings were in this clothes.

You are a princess of the former dynasty, especially the princess of the former dynasty who is obsessed with the restoration of the country, it is normal to wear your traditional clothes, how can you catch up with the fashion.

The old ancestor chattered: "I sent that little guy Chrystina to help you before, but I didn't expect that little guy to be resentful and act privately, almost ruining my plan, but this is good, it can let you figure out the ins and outs of the whole thing in advance, and it also saves my old man a lot of trouble on these old things, I know that you have a lot of questions and grievances in your heart, I came today, and I am ready to tell you everything, if you have any questions, just ask." ”

"Uh......" Sean was a little dumbfounded, the old ancestor's reaction was a little unexpected, before coming, he only thought about how to refuse the excessive requests that the other party might make, but he didn't prepare the corresponding questions.

For the Seven Apostles and the Old Ancestor, he did have a stomach question, but he really didn't know where to start asking.

After a slight hesitation, Sean pointed to the core of the question and said, "What does the old ancestor want to do?

"Rebuild the empire?" "Rebuild the empire?" the old ancestor's eyes showed a hint of remembrance, and finally shook his head and said, "Two centuries ago, maybe I still had such ambitions, and now, hehe, even the most pure-blooded Andes people, there is no trace of belonging to the ancient Andes Empire, even I, an old immortal who is struggling to survive, rarely dreams of the empire in the middle of the night, time is the sharpest knife in the world, it will kill and consume many things, not only life, but also feelings."

Time will also teach people a lot of things, such as looking at things from a more long-term perspective, there were too many factors in the fall of the empire, but the main reason is still in the empire's own ruling philosophy, in this regard, you are doing much better than the empire.

According to your current development rate, sooner or later, the entire continent will surrender to your feet, and what is the difference between whether it will be called the Andes Empire or the Eternal Night Empire? After all, what flows in your body is the purest royal blood of the Andes Empire. ”

In the last sentence, the expression and tone of the old ancestor were obviously a little meaningful.

The other party's tone of speech is very clear and reasonable, which is completely inconsistent with the image of the mad ruler of the Seven Apostles envisioned by Sean.

The ancestor's negative answer made Sean even more confused, and he really couldn't think of what the other party and the seven apostles led by him were asking for.

The old ancestor seemed to see through Sean's doubts, and without waiting for him to ask again, he took the initiative to speak: "The old ancestor has been trying to establish an independent regime in the Andes Mountains all these years, and he does have something to ask for, but this kind of request is closely related to the general environment, I don't know where your research on magic has come, whether you understand the origin of warlocks and the essence of magic." ”

"The origin of warlocks and the nature of spells?" Sean said in his heart, "I once heard that the ability of warlocks to manipulate spells is not innate, but during the imperial period, someone fused demon blood in their own bloodline, thus gaining the ability to manipulate spells, is this true?

"This matter, it seems to be two problems, but it is actually one problem. The Old Ancestor nodded, and said in an affirmative tone, "What you heard is not a legend, but it happened, the warlock's control of the magic energy does come from a powerful humanoid creature from another world, and even the energy of the magic energy does not come from our world, but from those worlds that are constantly approaching us."

Those worlds are completely formed by this element as a foundation, and the degree of energy activity is far above our world, and what you call elemental tides, which I have seen, is generally correct, but not entirely accurate, and the approach of these worlds is not completely cyclical, but in a state of constant increase.

Each time the distance of the great tide, the two sides will advance a little further, until the two sides are completely glued together, the plane barrier completely collapses, and then the weaker world is assimilated and swallowed by the stronger one. ”

"Assimilation devouring?" Sean's expression became unusually solemn.

"That's right, it's assimilation and devouring, the world we live in can be regarded as a life, but this life exists in a form that we can't understand, living in a larger world, and there are wars between different worlds.

These worlds have different wills, some are ignorant, but they are just surviving like this, the world we live in is this kind of world, some worlds have existed for too long, strong enough, so strong that they have developed their own will, and have the desire to hunt and eat, and the whole world they are in will be ruled and dominated by this will, and work hard for this goal.

Unfortunately, that's how our neighbors exist.

The periodic proximity of the two sides is not an accident, but the other party has been locking on to us, trying to send their armies to our world when the two are close enough, and then find a way to completely bind the two worlds, so as to achieve the purpose of assimilation and devouring. The old ancestor said with a flat expression, as if she was talking about something completely irrelevant to her.

Sean, who felt that his heart was big enough, was a little dumbfounded when he listened.

This sounds a bit fantastical and incredible, but when you think about it, it doesn't make any sense.

Because the laws of the plane are real.

It is not impossible that the whole world is running according to a certain program or will.

Just because you can't understand it doesn't mean it doesn't exist.

Just like the bacteria in the human body, if they were really conscious, they would definitely not realize that they are living in a much larger conscious weight, and there is a big world outside that they can't imagine.

Compared with the complete world, human beings are as small as bacteria, let alone the naked eye, even with the help of developed instruments, they have not been able to peek at the complete appearance of the whole world.

After taking a moment to digest the news, Sean couldn't help but say, "Assuming that all of this is true, what does this have to do with the establishment of a unified regime in the Andes Mountains?

"Fighting against the invasion of otherworldly creatures, that's the business of you young people, I don't have the heart to take care of this anymore, there is only one reason that has supported me to survive until now, and that is to save my father, queen, and people from endless nightmares when the plane barrier is at its weakest. "The old ancestor finally confided his true purpose.

Sean was even more confused when he heard this, and asked, "Father, queen mother, clansmen, ancestors, are you talking about other members of the imperial royal family, didn't they disappear along with the imperial capital Brissan three hundred years ago?"

"As the last fortress of the empire, Bresan not only concentrated all the elites of the empire at that time, but also half of the wealth, and the entire imperial capital was transformed into a huge group of mage towers, how could it be so easy to fall?" said the old ancestor with a look of reminiscence of the past.

"However, the general trend at that time was indeed not on the side of the empire, the magic energy of the entire environment was declining, and the magic power that the empire relied on could not fully exert its own power, so the empire's think tank team at that time proposed a great revival plan to my father. ”

"Revival plan?" Sean repeated.

"A bold, crazy adventure plan. The Old Ancestor explained in detail, "They exhausted all the power of the empire and transformed the imperial capital of Brissan into a huge mage tower array, and then rose from the ground......"

"Floating City?" Sean blurted out.
