Chapter 939: True Impression
The conversation finally turned to the real point, and Cordia quickly calmed down.
He thought about it again and again, and felt that the identity of Lin An and the others was indeed undoubted, and no matter what was strange in it, this was the closest the remnants had come to opening the path in the past thousand years, and he couldn't miss the opportunity, so he thought about it for a long time, and finally told Lin An what the remnants knew about the return path.
Angus watched their conversation with twinkling eyes.
With the addition of radish sticks, reminiscences, and the temptation of the future of the race, Lin An finally relented to Kodia.
He had no doubt that if Lin An had directly coerced and tortured him just now, the result he obtained would never be as true and comprehensive as he had now - this is the complexity of people's hearts, and the young master of the remnants may not know Lin An's purpose, but he is still willing.
In fact, based on Angus's understanding of Lin An, from the time he learned the identity of the bereaved people, Lin An should have made his attitude towards them clear - Huairou is more useful than coercion.
What's more, for these last descendants of the Magic Dynasty who have wandered in the Demon Realm and dreamed of returning to their homeland, showing their identity as a kindred race, giving them respect and equality, and then tempting them with hope, step by step, can even turn these powers that do not belong to them into help.
Regardless of whether the trip to the underground palace is successful or not, the power of the remnants is a force that cannot be ignored for Lin An and them.
"Do whatever it takes to increase your own power? Who would have thought that before they entered the dungeon, they would almost kill you? Angus already understood Lin An's thoughts, "So, what can I do with these conditions?" ”
The surprise of the survivors is not bad news for Angus:
What's worse than change is that there is no change.
On the other side, Lin An also confirmed the existence of the passage connecting the Demon Realm and the Muse Continent from the mouth of the young master of the remnants.
This is no longer the unverified existence that she and Angus had speculated about.
They also have a definite purpose and motivation for this trip.
According to the young master of the remnants, nearly a thousand years ago, the "return path" passed down by the remnants was opened for the last time, indicating that the passage between the two realms in the underground palace must have existed - at least it had existed.
"Pathwaybringer?" Comparing what the young master of the remnants said with the situation he imagined, it was not difficult for Lin An to find a key point, "Every time the passage is opened, there will be a passage messenger to guide you." ”
"That's right, the passage has been opened seven times, and each time there is a passage messenger to guide ......"
The news of the return path is the greatest secret and hope of the bereaved people, if not ...... Cordia gave a complicated and heavy look at the black-haired and black-eyed young female mage, and continued, "Until the last passage was opened, the path messenger did not reappear, and we did not wait for the passage to open. ”
After that, there was a thousand years of waiting.
Since then, the ancestors of Kodia have begun to shoulder the heavy responsibility and secrecy of continuing the bloodline, waiting until they are almost desperate, because of this, the appearance of Lin An and others has become very important, compared to their own life and death, they cannot make the remnants less tolerant.
A thousand years ago......
Lin An and Angus met their eyes, and Angus nodded silently.
This time roughly coincided with the time period when Ye Si's activities in the Demon Realm disappeared as they knew.
But Venice had also mentioned that it felt that the time when Ye Si left the Demon Realm and the connection with his soul was broken was seven hundred years ago.
Among them, there was a gap of nearly three hundred years, Ye Si had not been active outside, and even Venice could not know her whereabouts.
Where did Ye Si go?
What happened?
Traces can be concealed, and audio can be blocked, but the induction between souls cannot be isolated.
During this period, Ye Si must have encountered something that she couldn't resist, and she had to let go of the rescue of the remnants, and she couldn't even contact Venice.
"According to this, the messenger of the passage in your mouth is likely to be closely related to the master of the underground palace, and may even be the master of the underground palace. And the reason why the other party did not appear again is likely to have suffered a change, or even ...... It's gone. ”
Hearing this, the young master of the remnants was silent for a moment, "Although it is difficult to accept, this may indeed be the closest possible thing to the truth." ”
"In that case, then why don't you still give up entering the dungeon?" Angus interjected, his temperament made this move not abrupt, but only made the remnant of the young lord look at him more.
"The labyrinth on the periphery of the dungeon has never disappeared, which means that it is functioning normally, but if there is a glimmer of hope, we will not give up."
"I'm afraid it's not only that," said Angus lightly, "if I were your ancestor a thousand years ago, I am afraid that the existence of the Pathway Messenger would be more likely to be regarded as an obstacle than a help, and the first thought that comes to my mind when I learn of the disappearance of the Pathway Messenger is to occupy this borderland."
In this way, you will no longer need to be restricted, and you will be able to save your people as much as possible - until you find that the Pathway Messenger is gone, and you will no longer be able to enter the dungeon. ”
Cordia was shocked, the hand holding the handle of the short knife tightened and loosened, and his face sank like water: "What do you want to say?" Are you the inheritors of the master of the dungeon? ”
"Young master, don't be nervous, we have no intention of pursuing anything, and we are not ordering the ancestors to act. In fact, if we change places, I am afraid that there will not be much difference between what we do and Ling Zu. Lin An sang with a white face and said calmly, "Of course, we are not the heirs of the original owner of the underground palace, although we do have something to do with it. ”
"You're telling the truth," Cordia's face softened a little, "If you pretend to be the original inheritor of the dungeon, I won't trust you anymore." ”
Lin An and Angus were both a little surprised.
"So that the ancestors know that she ...... Identity? ”
"'She'? - So, the true identity of the messenger of the passage is indeed the Daughter of the Night! ”
The young master of the remnants said unexpectedly, and then the right color:
"There is no legend among the Terrans who have been captured to the Demon Realm, and we Terrans cannot be promoted to legends in the Demon Realm, so although the Passage Messenger has not revealed her true face from beginning to end, we all know it by our hearts that she must be a high-level Demon Race - it is not difficult to delineate her identity within such a small range."
Cordia sighed and said calmly, "In fact, in the beginning, our race was scattered all over the Demon Realm, and we were able to survive and develop in the shadows, and we all directly and indirectly received her blessing and protection, which was later inferred. Although the ancestors were hesitant about her purpose for helping us, the people who had been blessed were not ungrateful to her. It's just that the thinking level of the superior is destined to only rationally weigh the pros and cons, and compare it with the safety of the entire race-"
He didn't go on, and the omitted content was self-evident.
"Then you found out that the dungeon was closed, and you didn't find out about her whereabouts again?" Angus asked.
"Of course there were, but we didn't dare to be blatant, and since more than ten years had passed, there was almost no gain - you can imagine our situation in the Demon Realm, it was difficult to access the secrets of the upper echelons of the Demon Realm."
"So what did you hear?"
"One of the biggest takeaways is to narrow down her identity to the Maiden of the Night - of course, the real confirmation comes from your mouth.
As you can imagine, she doesn't directly help us in her true identity, more often than not, our ancestors just felt that there was a protective force coming from the upper echelons of the demon race, but they couldn't tell who it was, and they didn't even know if she was male or female. It wasn't until after she disappeared that our ancestors found that the ethnic situation was becoming more and more difficult, and she was the only one who disappeared during that time - but for a day no one was sure, and we can only speculate. ”
Cordia smiled self-deprecatingly, "Ridiculous, isn't it?" We have only now figured out who our benefactor really is, and even now, we have not figured out why she helped us. ”
Lin An can understand this mentality.
Suspicious, cautious, is the necessary mentality of their survival, suddenly get great help from the enemy, but the price paid is minimal, the ancestors of the remnants of the year holding such a big hot pie, I am afraid that they don't know the taste at all, tossing and turning, worrying at any time that there is an unpredictable catastrophe falling from the sky, or the cat and mouse of the demon powerhouse......
Under such a premise, it is no wonder that the ancestors of Kodia have such a complicated psychology towards Ye Si, and it seems that they are ungrateful and mercenary, and for them, they have to do it as a last resort.
A hint of mockery flashed in Angus's eyes, which was keenly captured by Lin An.
She immediately understood what Angus was mocking.
Kindness, kindness, what Ye Si did, even after learning that she was from another world, Angus still couldn't understand what she did.
With the caution of the remnants of the Terran people, it is almost impossible for both sides of the enemy camp to establish faith in any difficulty.
Even now, Ye Si still did not have all the trust of the remnants of the Terran race.
But judging from the fact that Ye Si has been gone for a thousand years, and the remnants of the human race still regard the underground palace as their greatest hope, Ye Si can be regarded as a success.
Not to mention the difficulty of winning the trust of the bereaved people, it is difficult to measure the painstaking resources spent on finding the passage between the two realms and establishing an underground palace here - especially when she cannot use the resources of the open face with great fanfare, and can only act in secret.
And what Ye Si brought to the remnants of the Terran was not just a temporary shelter and help, but a monument of faith, if there was no symbol of hope to condense the faith of the remnants, I am afraid that the remnants of the Terran may not be able to pass it on to this day.
From this point of view, it is not without reason that from the suspicion of the ancestors of the remnants thousands of years ago to the respect and shame of Kodia today, time is the best touchstone, which verifies Ye Si's kindness back then.
Compared with Angus, who is difficult to distinguish between true and false, and Venice, who is skeptical of them, Lin An believes more in the true image of Ye Si reflected in the mouth of the young master of the remnants who have not really come into contact with Ye Si:
Ye Si, she ...... It should be a real human rights activist, an intellectual from the modern era with a complete higher education.
is not a "stupid woman" like the Virgin in the mouth of Venice,
Not to mention the madman in Angus's mouth,
It's a modern woman like her.
Cordia's dictation may be one-sided, but the existence of the underground palace has proved that Ye Si has come, encountered, and done something.
Lin Anxin had a faint sentimentality.
She seemed to see that the auspicious light and feathers in her impression of Ye Si constituted a familiar back in front of her-
Turning around slowly,
Look at each other and smile.
In the next second, a feeling of weightlessness suddenly came.
