Chapter 313: Speculation
"You're Jamie?" Shen Hao raised his eyebrows in some surprise. This person was one of the two king-level knights brought into the Nightmare Realm by Pope Robben, but he didn't know if he was also affected by this Nightmare Realm and lost his original memory, so he asked tentatively.
"It's me, Mr. Shen, Miss Shi, please come with me, our Pope His Majesty has been waiting for you here for a long time." Jamie jumped off his horse and bowed, and gestured to the hut he had just come out of.
Shen Hao and Shi Yuxuan glanced at each other, although their hearts were full of doubts, but since this Jamie could still maintain a normal memory, then there would be no ill will towards him. And obviously this place can't stay for long, if it attracts the attention of the warring sides, then it will be difficult to get out. He nodded to Jamie and followed him back to the cabin.
The hut was small, like most houses of this era, with two floors, but instead of taking them upstairs, Jamie tied the horses to a pillar on one side and led them around the back of the stairs. Only then did the two of them see that in the shadow of the staircase, there was a lifted wooden plank, and there was a square hole under the plank, and there was a faint light shining from below.
Jamie beckoned to the two and took the lead in climbing down. Shen Hao and the others followed him down to the ground floor, only to find that this was an abandoned wine cellar, most of the wine barrels had been emptied, and eight people were sitting around a wooden table. Shen Hao recognized at a glance that the person sitting directly opposite him was Pope Robben, he was wearing the white robe of the Holy Priest of Erathia, and the rest of them were all high-level nightmare hunters who followed him into the Nightmare Realm, they were dressed in different clothes, some were wearing priest's robes and some were wearing knight armor, and there was even a person with a golden armor that Shen Hao was quite familiar with, it was the Holy Crusader armor of Erathia.
"Welcome, Mr. Shen and Miss Shi, fortunately I was able to intercept you in time." Robben stood up with a smile and shook hands with Shen Hao and the two, "I guess you want to go to Avili, but now Avili has been occupied by Tiga, and if you crash in this direction, you will only fall into a more dangerous encirclement." ”
"This ...... What's going on? How did you end up here? Also, you all seem to be able to keep memories of the past, what is the reason for that? Shen Hao was stunned by his series of words, and the doubts in his heart were even worse, and he didn't care so much at the moment, and took out all the questions in one go.
"We Holy See clergy are different from ordinary Nightmare Hunters, and our strong faith gives us a great advantage in resisting spiritual interference, so everyone who enters this Nightmare Realm can keep their minds." Robben invited the two of them to sit down, and the other eight people greeted them politely, "And my 'Great Prophecy Technique' also has a certain help in avoiding risks and finding specific targets, after entering the Nightmare Realm, I immediately began to look for other people, Jamie They are in the same vein as me, and they also have a slight sense of each other, so I gathered together in the shortest possible time." ”
"Later, at a gathering of nobles, I heard about you beating a nobleman's heir, and I wanted to go to the fortress of Harion to look for you, but I didn't expect the war to break out suddenly, and you disappeared after a confrontation, so I had to venture again to use the Great Prophecy to perceive. Since I can't use the Nightmare Ability, my perception of you outsiders is very vague, and I have a vague premonition that I can meet you here, so I sneaked into Mologan City with everyone. ”
"Who knows, only two days later, it was reported that Diga launched a blitzkrieg against Avili, because Avili's main force was on the border of Korulod, and as a result, Diga was caught off guard and occupied most of the land, and even Tiga's army peak has been directed at Avili's capital Finland Sor. After receiving the battle report, Erathia immediately began to transfer troops to Mologan City, but after all, it was still a step too late, and Tiga's army seemed to fall from the sky, first covering the whole city with the plague of undead, transforming all civilians into low-level undead at once, and then releasing a large area of dark sky, trapping and killing the defenders in the city. By the time Erathia's reinforcements arrived, Mologan had effectively become a fortress for Tiga, and the two sides could only hold each other for the time being. ”
Speaking of this, Robben shrugged helplessly, "Actually, our situation has been very bad these days, because the undead entered the city too quickly, we did not have enough food and drinking water here, and then the whole city became the undead's world, and the food exposed to the outside was all contaminated and inedible." If you don't show up tonight, the few of us will be ready to leave here in the middle of the big battle between the two sides. Of course, our goal is to return to Erathia, and the road on Avili's side is no longer open, and if you force it, you will die. ”
Shen Hao was silent, trying to digest the news that Robben brought. The situation has changed too quickly, and in the blink of an eye, another empire has been involved in the war, plus the Nigon, Erathia, Tataria, Korulod and Avili encountered before, six of the eight empires on the continent have been involved in the war. Obviously, this time the Nightmare Demon is extremely cunning, they are not prepared to fight the human side at all, but use the war that affects the whole world to slaughter the souls of the human race, and the human beings are led to cannibalism without knowing it, including most of the Nightmare Hunters are also involved in this vortex of cannibalism.
"Not long ago, Aveli sent an envoy group of Pegasus knights to contact the nearby empire to resist the war provoked by Krurod, can you find the location of this envoy group, Robben Crown?" Shen Hao was still thinking about it, but Shi Yuxuan on the side suddenly asked. Shen Hao was slightly stunned, and immediately raised his head and looked at Pope Robben with the same eager gaze.
"This ...... Sanders: Your honor guard is under the jurisdiction of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, is there any news about this? Robben looked back at a man in silver knight's armor sitting on the left side of the wooden table, the man nodded and stood up and replied, "Mr. Shen, there is such an envoy group, and the griffin brigade to which I belong was responsible for greeting and escorting them. After a pause, he continued, "Avelli's envoys first stopped in Tartaglia, then our Erathia, and then they appeared in the northern part of the empire, and their target was Bracada, the magical kingdom in the far north. ”
"Mr. Shen, could it be that there are also our companions in this envoy group?" Seeing the changing expressions on Shen Hao and Shi Yuxuan's faces, Robben immediately understood.
"Yes, Your Majesty Robben, we have known for sure that there are at least four or more Nightmare Hunters in this legacy, but it's hard to say if they retain their memories." Shi Yuxuan once again preempted Shen Hao and replied, "In addition, among the Korulod troops who invaded Erathia and Tatalia before, there are also our companions, and one of them has been captured by us together, but none of them have memories of the past, I wonder if there is a way for Your Majesty to awaken their memories?" ”
"I'm sorry, I can't do it without using the Nightmare Assist." Robben spread his hands helplessly, "We clergy originally have faith as the basis for protecting our minds, and with a little mention of my Great Prophecy, we can completely recover our memories, but this method is limited to us in the Holy See, and it has no effect on the infidels. ”
Seeing the disappointment on the faces of the two of them, Robben hesitated for a moment, and then spoke: "Maybe someone can do it, I heard that the teachings of Buddhism are based on the universal benefit of all sentient beings, and that Zhan Lin Zen Master may have a special method." ”
Shen Hao's originally gloomy expression suddenly became invigorated again, what is the effect of Zhan Lin Zen Master's ethereal Zen method, he has a deep understanding, and immediately asked: "Your Majesty the Pope, may your Great Prophecy Technique predict the location of Zhan Lin Zen Master?" ”
Robben smiled slightly, took out a roll of parchment from his arms, and slowly unfolded it on the wooden table under the eager gaze of everyone. Shen Hao glanced at it and understood that this was a map of the entire continent, and the borders of each country on it were distinguished by different colors, even the known underground world. But that's not the point, the point is that there are a few names in each country, some have been determined, and some are still marked with question marks, but the number is roughly the same as the number of Nightmare Hunters they have entered the Nightmare Realm this time.
"This is the first time I used the Great Prophecy Technique to obtain information after entering the Nightmare Realm, because I didn't dare to call Nightmare Energy on a large scale, the information here is not complete, but it is still somewhat helpful for us to try to gather them." Robben explained with a smile.
It's not just a little help, it's a big help! Shen Hao was overjoyed, respectfully saluted Robben, and then leaned on the map to look at it carefully.
This time, everyone came with the mentality of fighting to the death with the Nightmare Demon, and there were quite a few people who entered the Nightmare Realm, but the main force among them was still a few powerhouses who had reached the Supreme Realm. And perhaps because the higher the strength, the better the effect that Robben can sense, therefore, including Shen Hao, the names of the eight supremes are clearly marked, while the other king-level and pseudo-king-level are more missing.
Shen Hao and Robben are in Erathia, Shi Yuxuan is in Tataria, the three elders of the Ten Thousand Immortals Hall are in the underground world of Oufu, and Zhao Yin is actually in Korurod, and the location of the Zhan Silent Zen Master they are looking for is the elven kingdom Avili who is about to fall into the hands of Tiga.
At the same time, Shen Hao also saw several other familiar names, such as the names of Kim and others in Millerkel appearing in Bracada, and Xin Suran's name was actually in Nigon in the Underground Dragon City......
"So scattered...... Shen Hao's eyebrows twisted into a pimple, the people on his own side were actually scattered to such an extent, how easy it was to unify them, and there were their own people everywhere, where was the enemy? Thinking of this, Shen Hao's eyes suddenly froze. No, the eight empires, but the map is generally marked with only seven colors, and there is an empire that has never had a fixed territory, and they can appear anywhere on the continent at any time, and wherever they pass, it will only bring endless death...... That's right, they're the realm of the dead - Tiga!!
Shen Hao raised his head, and Robben on the opposite side also stared at his eyes, seeing his expression, Robben nodded and said: "That's right, only this country has no Nightmare Hunters to join, under the premise that the Nightmare Demon has no way to directly distinguish the difference between Nightmare Hunters and Living Souls, it is likely that there are no human living souls in this country." ”
"There is no soul, only for killing, I can't find anything more suspicious than it, a force that belongs directly to the control of the Nightmare Demon!"
