Chapter 31: The Knight's Confusion
Zhuzhiqu was very tired, so he went straight back to his accommodation to rest. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info and Zhong Lan wiped the sweat on his forehead, with no intention of going back.
Because just now I received a message from the system.
"Ding...... Congratulations to the Brave Photometric for triggering the first phase of the third ring of the 'Ring' quest - The Knight's Secret. You'll be meeting Fashu outside the base, so head out and about, this may be the tip of the iceberg of the knight's secrets. β
If it weren't for the system's reminder, Zhong Lan would have almost forgotten about this ring task, just finished training, her clothes were already soaked, she spent some experience points in the store to change into a new coat, put it on the outside of her upper body, and hit the road.
According to the meaning of the system, as long as you keep going out, you will meet with Fashu under the arrangement of the system.
But there should be a reasonable reason to arrange - such as Ansaja's commission.
Sure enough, it was almost at the end of the river, and when I was about to leave the suburbs, I saw the trace of Fashu. The other party also saw Zhong Lan, flashed in front of Zhong Lan, and bowed slightly at her.
"Ansada has something to say?" Zhong Lan asked.
Fashu nodded, "Your strength has reached the standard approved by Lord Ansaja, and Lord Ansaja has decided to make an appointment with you to personally settle the remaining old ministry with you." β
"Huh...... Ansada can not be threatened by coercion, why didn't you come together last time? Zhong Lan touched his chin, "I'm a little curious, so many moves really just make me wear out my strength?" I always think it's a coincidence......"
Zhong Lan's eyes were tricky and strange, sticking to Fashu's face, but the other party couldn't move like thunder, and he didn't show a single gaffe.
Just briefly explained: "Please believe the adult, the adult chose you as the object of cooperation, there must be his meaning." β
"Shouldn't I defend myself? Next time, he decides to do it. Zhong Lan smiled, changed the topic, and asked again, "You guys...... Can you perceive the strength of our 'braves'? β
This Fashu did not deny it, nodded and said, "We know that you are different, but the abilities of the brave below our level can be seen. And, strange among you...... Leaderboards are also visible. β
Dawn's access to NPCs is really high.
Zhong Lan no longer pressed him to answer more questions. Seeing that he seemed to look behind him, he remembered the rumors about vampires, and asked in his heart, "You were turned into a vampire by Ansa Jia?" β
"It's disrespectful to call us 'Bloodline' and 'vampires.'"
"Heh, alright, Bloodline."
"I'm ...... The adults picked it up. Fajushri did not hide it, and explained, "I have long forgotten all the memories of the past, and it is the glory of all the blood clans to be able to obtain eternal life with the mercy of adults." I'm a good person, and it's my honor to be the most loyal knight on the side of an adult. β
"The knight's 'father' is not the prince?" Zhong Lan asked.
ββ¦β¦β
Seeing that he turned his head a little evasively, Zhong Lan then asked, "It's okay to ask about some internal things as a companion, right?" Or is it this...... Involving the core of your bloodline? β
"It's not." Fashu replied lightly, "No matter who found the knight, once you can advance to the knight, you must swear to the blood clan to be loyal to the prince forever. It's just that the prince is under the throne, and the king that Okili and I follow are adults. β
"Oh~ what a worrying loyalty." Zhong Lan looked like a joke.
After Fashu finished reporting the news, he was about to leave, Zhong Lan hooked the corners of his mouth slightly, and seeing that the system did not trigger the first stage of the plot by himself, he stepped forward and stretched out his hand to block the other party's whereabouts.
Pointing to the moon in the sky, he suddenly showed a different smile from his usual smile.
Imitating the down-and-out boy with a smile and eight teeth, he tried to bewitch and said: "There is a moon tonight, although there is no wine, but we can talk about it." β
Fashu didn't eat this set and was about to leave, and she said, "How long have you been a blood knight?" β
ββ¦β¦β
"Huh?" Zhong Lan sat on the grass and patted the ground beside him, "Sit down and say." β
In the dark night, the blue light in her eyes flashed.
Fashu stiffened, followed Zhong Lan's orders and slowly sat down, and when he came back to his senses, he realized that he had been tricked by her as he had done last time.
But he was silent for a while, and he didn't mean to turn away.
Suddenly, he asked rhetorically, "Do you know what it feels like to have all your memories gone?" β
Of course, Zhong Lan didn't know, so she didn't interrupt Fashu's words, and stared at the other party with her head propped up.
"As a Knight of the Blood Clan, it has been hundreds of years." Fajuri lowered his eyes, as if he was thinking about something, "When I first became a knight, I only had the voice of 'father' in my ears, and I knew that I had to be loyal to my father, and even more so, I had to bear the loyalty of a knight to the prince. β
"But in reality, there is no memory in my mind. I don't know where it came from, and I spent a hundred years in immortality. Ochri and I both followed the old prince, but after the split, we chose to be an adult. β
"Oakie is different from me, she is more bold and spicy, and she seems to be easy to overreach, but she is actually far more loyal than me. For from the very beginning, I have committed the last thing a knight should have doneβdoubting the past. β
Fajushri paused slightly as he said this, as if he was thinking about something.
"Because I know that I am not qualified, I have always forced myself to absolutely follow the rules of knighthood." The corners of Fashu's mouth twitched slightly, revealing a smile that was almost invisible, "The battle within the blood clan is too strong, and all knights who make mistakes will be executed." β
Seeing his strange smile, Zhong Lan's heart suddenly moved, and asked, "Do you want to get your memories back?" β
"It's not." He directly vetoed it, and said seriously, "What can be easily discarded must be unimportant." Why should unimportant memories be retrieved? β
Zhong Lan didn't say a word.
"But......" Fashu paused suddenly, "I don't want to change back to my old self, but I wonder why I accept eternal life." Is this an obsession? β
"Immortal...... Zhong Lan nodded, beginning to understand the crux of this task.
What secrets can a vampire have, the so-called secret is hidden in his confused memory. Isn't it the memory that makes up all of a person's personality? Losing all memories in exchange for eternal life, and for this is to offer eternal loyalty.
But the outwardly loyal knight began to be confused about himself.
Zhong Lan stood up, Fashu lowered his eyes after speaking, and left the river in a few flashes.
Seeing his back as he left, Zhong Lan suddenly laughed.
When you lose your memory, you will also forget all your misfortunes. Since you choose to be a vampire but you have to be confused about the choice, this is ...... Aren't you looking for your own death?
Zhong Lan was suddenly happy, if she had such a knight, she would definitely break his legs.
On the way back, she met a lot of vampires, and she had no interest in killing, so she quickly rushed back to the base and began to think that she should go to the dungeon tomorrow morning. (To be continued.) )
