Chapter 340: Suspicion
Kuitun gave birth to more than 200 children during his long life, and it was not until he felt the onset of old age twenty years ago that he stopped doing so.
The birth of his children spanned more than two hundred years, and these children branched out, and the Andean family continued to grow and grow.
Today, in the entire Andean family, the number of direct blood relatives in Kuitun has increased to an extremely large number.
Eve's father and grandfather have not awakened for two generations, so she belongs to the kind of family members who are judged to have little chance of awakening, and have a low status in the family.
Although she may not be able to awaken for the rest of her life, after all, Kuitun's blood flows in her body, and the offspring born by her combination with the awakened person still have a higher chance of awakening than the combination of ordinary people and the awakened.
So as a member of the Andean family, Eve's greatest value left is to breed bloodlines for the family.
She has been instilled with this idea since she was a child, learning this ability, and when she grows old enough, she will be used by her family to entertain those who are awakened.
It doesn't matter who the father of the offspring is, as long as they have the blood of the Andean family in their veins.
This is one of the means by which the Andean family continues.
......
Li Xing thought of the deviants who were locked in the dungeon, and then looked at the defenseless Eve, his eyes were slightly heavy.
Being born in such a family is their greatest misfortune.
Except for the few lucky ones who successfully awakened, the other members are just tools of the family.
"You're not an adult. Li Xing looked at her and asked softly.
"I'm two months away, and I'll be sixteen. Eve nodded meekly.
Then she smiled softly and said softly, "But Eve is already very skilled at this kind of thing." ”
As she spoke, Eve slowly leaned down and made a seductive pose.
"So...... Please enjoy me to your heart's content. ”
She looked sideways at Li Xing, with a soft smile on her face that did not match her age.
Li Xing looked at Eve, who had a soft face, and was silent for a while.
In the end, he didn't attack Eve, because he didn't have any interest at all.
However, he still used his magic finger to blur Eve's memory, making her subconsciously think that she had completed the task.
......
The next morning, it was just dawning.
Eve opened her eyes, carefully removed the large hand placed on her chest, and glanced at Li Xing who was asleep.
Seeing that he did not wake up, he got out of the quilt, put on a thin pajama to cover his body, got out of bed barefoot, and left the room.
The door had just been closed.
Li Xing on the bed opened his eyes, his eyes were clear, and he didn't have the slightest confusion and tiredness when he just woke up.
He glanced out the window.
The sky was still a little gray, not too bright, and it was clearly too early.
It was quiet outside, and it was clear that the Andean family had not yet discovered what was going on in the dungeon.
Li Xing closed his eyes again and continued to pretend to sleep.
Until half an hour later.
"Knock, knock, knock. ”
There was a knock on the door.
"Master Pato, your breakfast is here. At the same time, someone shouted softly outside.
It was Wu San's voice.
"Come in. Li Xing got up and got out of bed and put on a red nightgown.
The door opened, and a middle-aged white man walked in from the outside, followed by two servants with plates.
The two servants placed breakfast on the table in the room, saluted and left the room, closing the door.
"How's it going?"
Li Xing picked up a shortbread and took a bite, and asked softly.
"Not almost. Wu San shook his head slightly.
"How much worse is it?" Li Xing frowned slightly, "Tell me to be specific." ”
"It's going to be at least two nights. Wu San paused.
"Do you want two more nights...... Li Xing let out a heavy breath of turbidity, "It's really troublesome." ”
Wu San replied: "The area deep in the ancient castle is too big, and I only had time to detect about 30% of the area last night. ”
"Can you be sure that the mysterious pages are stored in the depths of the castle?"
"At least a ninety percent chance. ”
Li Xing ate the shortbread in his hand, silent, not knowing what he was thinking, and Wu San didn't speak.
All that was left in the room was the sound of chewing food.
"I also went out last night and did something. ”
Li Xing finished eating the shortbread and took a sip of milk.
"There should be some unusual movements of the Andean family today, and the garrison of the ancient castle will probably be tightened. ”
"Martial law, this is okay. Wu San's expression remained unchanged, "As long as your identity is not revealed, it will not affect my actions." ”
His tone was calm, apparently not paying attention to the martial law of the Andean family.
"Don't worry about identity, it won't be revealed in a short time. Li Xing shook his head slightly, "But it's hard to say after a long time, so you'd better move quickly." ”
"The subordinates understand. Wu San nodded.
"Another ......"
Li Xing took the milk cup in his hand and muttered: "How much do you know about Kuitun, I mean places other than strength." ”
"Anything other than strength. Wu San thought for a while and said, "Kuitun is actually very famous, and his fame is far above his strength. ”
"Huh?" Li Xing was slightly interested.
Wu San explained: "Because it often takes at least three D-level awakened people to form a family of awakened people, and Kuitun has achieved this goal by himself, and the Andean family has developed very well. ”
Li Xing understood, "It's because Kuitun is very capable of life, right?"
"Yes, exactly. Wu San nodded, "But the drawbacks are also obvious, that is, as soon as Kuitun dies, the entire family will be unable to continue, and it will decline rapidly." ”
If Kuitun died, the Andean family would not just lose a D-class powerhouse.
What's more, without his spread, the probability of awakening the offspring born to those low-level awakened in the family is too low.
If it is said that among the offspring born to Kuitun, who is a D-class, on average, one out of ten can have a chance to awaken, and the offspring born to those who are low-level awakened are almost one in a hundred to have a chance to awaken.
Therefore, if there is no new D-class in the family, and the bloodline continues to decay, the Andean family will probably never be able to produce an awakened person for a long time.
Since Kuitun stopped reproducing twenty years ago, the entire Andean family has begun to show signs of decline during this time.
"No wonder. Li Xing was slightly stunned.
If the family is facing an existential crisis, it is understandable to use those unimportant women in the family to entertain the awakened to achieve the purpose of multiplying the bloodline.
Wu San was puzzled: "What's the reason that's so?"
Li Xing told him about Eve last night.
Wu San laughed after hearing this, shook his head and said: "My lord, you are thinking too much, these awakened families in the western country have always been like this, even if the Andean family does not decline, they will let that Eve serve the adult." ”
Li Xing couldn't help but be stunned.
"But not everyone is treated like that. ”
Wu San said with a smile: "Because my lord, the Pato you play is also born in the Awakened family and has the identity of an ancient nobleman, so he will receive such hospitality from the Andean family.
They have been such a tradition since the Middle Ages.
Although I am also an E-class awakened like you, I am only your servant, so no one bothered me last night. ”
Li Xing was speechless for a while.
Guiquan ...... It's really messy.
The two then talked for a while, swapping the areas they had explored the previous night.
Unlike Li Xing, who only went out for a short hour, Wu San explored all night and got more and more comprehensive information.
Then it didn't take long for Jeyt to come over.
......
......
Inside a dark underground prison.
Warwhite, the steward of the castle, stood in the passageway, looking at the scene inside the cage through the iron fence, with no expression on his serious face.
There is an aura of indifference that rejects people thousands of miles away.
"Your Excellency, you've finished counting. ”
A masked man in a black uniform walked quickly up to him and said respectfully, "All sinners are dead, all with one blow." ”
"Even the gatekeeper of the dungeon, [Meat Monster] Baggio, is dead......"
A muffled voice came from the far side of the passage.
"How could the sinners of these families resist the intruder. ”
A young man in a white cloak walked slowly.
"Master Kareen. ”
The black-clothed guards on both sides of the passage along the way all bowed their heads and saluted.
"Chief Warwhite. With one hand on his chest, Karenne leaned forward slightly towards Waughwhite in a simple courtesy.
He said softly, "Father asked me to cooperate with you in this matter. ”
"Since it is the intention of Lord Kuitun, then the young master will follow behind the old man. Warwight glanced at the youngest son of Kuitun, and the indifference on his face did not ease for a minute.
Karien didn't care, looking at the headless corpse in the cage that had been shot off in the head, and a flash of doubt flashed in his eyes.
"No sinner escapes, not to save anyone, and what is the purpose of the intruder?"
What he couldn't figure out the most was why the intruders wanted to kill these sinners.
"Chief Warwhite, what do you think about this?"
Karene looked sideways at Warwhite.
Warwight said, "No opinion. ”
"Ugh. Karien was stunned, "So what are you going to do......"
"Master Jayt brought back a guest yesterday named Pato. Warwight glanced at him.
"Yesterday's guest. Karene groaned slightly.
"This is what happened at night...... There is indeed a big suspicion. ”
"Of course, it's more likely to be a coincidence, but it's better to investigate. Warwight said lightly: "That guest has a special status, so I will ask you Young Master Kareen." ”
Karene nodded slightly.
"I see what you mean. ”
