Chapter 40: A Movie from Hundreds of Years Ago
There are two flowers, one on each branch.
The bewildered duo is now in a state of extreme bewilderment.
At the moment they are on the battlefield.
In front of them, a lanky samurai, dressed in tattered armor and armed with a two-handed greatsword, was slashing at a burly greatsword warrior.
The two swords collided, only to hear a "boom", and a ball of flame exploded between the two, and the samurai was blown up to the position of the stunned duo, and then passed through their bodies, flying backwards without hindrance.
The thin-looking samurai rushed after him, his sword in his hand and a slash in his hand.
At this time, the entire battlefield was dead silent, complete or mutilated, and the corpses of various ways of death were scattered in every corner. Smoke from the burning wafted through the air, and the dirt beneath his feet was soaked in blood.
Diana nervously grabbed Charles's hand, knowing that it was just a cinematic projection, and that she had used similar magical objects before, but it was the first time she had seen such a hellish scene.
Charles's situation was not much better, although he had seen the bodies of workers who had died on the construction site before, but the sight of the mountains of corpses and blood forced him to keep silently saying "this is watching a movie, this is watching a movie".
Now there are only two living people left. The samurai was kneeling on one foot, and she was vomiting blood as she had just taken off her helmet. Another man in light armor hobbled over with a magic staff commonly used by magicians.
Charles recognized the warrior woman in front of him who was being held in the arms of the man in light armor and fed medicine, the blood-stained face he had seen in Corn City.
"They are Catherine and Philip!" Charles told Diana.
Looking at the seriously injured and weakened heroine, the stunned duo already knew which movie they were watching now, which was the scene where the great sage Philip was about to assassinate Catherine that had been speculated by the world for hundreds of years.
And the man who was seriously injured with Catherine and did not forget to sprinkle dog food was Charles's ancestor, the great sage Philip, who did not run away.
Just as Charles was guessing whether his ancestor was going to stab with a knife, smash or strangle each other with a staff, and then blow himself up and die, he saw Philip and Catherine looking in the direction in front of him.
On the battlefield where there were no more living people, a green shadow quickly approached, and after two breaths, the shadow came in front of the two of them.
A "mountain elf" in green leather armor stood in front of the two of them and finally took a deep breath.
"This is Queen Victoria, Elizabeth's mother. Charles continued to introduce Diana to the characters.
Catherine, who was lying in Philip's arms, weakly shouted to Victoria: "Sister ......"
Victoria sat down on one leg in front of Philip and pitifully wiped the blood from Catherine's face.
"My silly sister...... Victoria's tone was doting, helpless, and more sad.
"I'm sorry......" Before Catherine could finish speaking, Victoria stretched out her finger and pressed her lips.
"There is no need to apologize to me, you have chosen your path, and I have chosen mine. "As I told you on the day I sent you back, since you are willing to take this road of no return, I will support you." ”
"Thank you, sister. Catherine said weakly, "Joseph he ......"
"Don't worry, I swear I'll take care of Joseph, not just him, but his children and grandchildren. Victoria said as she stroked Catherine's hair.
At this time, Charles noticed that one corner of Catherine's head had been broken, and the shape of the other corner was ...... Charles strangled me after seeing it clearly.
Then Victoria looked at Philip and asked, "What about you, is there anything else you would like to say to Joseph?"
Philip took a necklace with a ring from his neck with one hand and handed it to Victoria, saying, "Here are the books and notes I prepared, as well as the method of extracting the active ingredients from maple syrup, you can leave these to him." In the following peaceful days, let him and his descendants become scholars or businessmen. ”
Charles recognized the ring on the necklace as the one he used to store his books.
Victoria took the necklace and hung it around her neck.
"I'll let Samuel train him to be a talent. She said.
"Finally, I'm sorry......" Philip said to Victoria.
Victoria shook her head and said, "You didn't feel sorry for me. ”
Then she touched her belly and said, "Give the child a name, the man said it was a girl." ”
"Girl's words...... Philip smiled, "then Elizabeth, swear in the name of God." ”
"Swear in the name of God?" Victoria looked earnestly into Philip's eyes.
"Yes. Philip replied affirmatively, "In another three hundred to four hundred years, we will meet again." ”
"I can afford to wait for one four hundred years, and I can afford to wait for two four hundred years. But I don't know if I'll be able to wait for the third or four hundred years. At this time, Victoria's eyes flowed with tears, "In the name of God, please do not break your word." ”
With that, Victoria leaned over, put her arms around Philip's shoulders, and kissed him deeply.
Victoria then leaned down and kissed Catherine on the forehead.
At this moment, Philip's body emitted a burst of golden and red light.
"It's time. Philip said.
"Goodbye. Victoria said as she stroked Philip and Catherine's faces, then stood up and turned to leave.
The light on Philip grew stronger and stronger, and at the same time, the light flowed like water to Catherine in his arms.
"I'm leaving. ”
"Hmm. ”
The next moment, the intertwined light of gold and red broke through the sky.
When the bewildered duo wakes up, they find themselves lying on a large bed with an unfamiliar ceiling above them.
The two of them blinked, and for a moment they didn't come back to their senses from the scene just now.
"Ah, you're awake!" a female dwarf's face appeared in front of them, "you two keep your hands together, and it took us a lot of effort to move you here." ”
After the dwarf finished speaking, he looked at the two of them with an ambiguous expression.
The stunned duo remembered that they subconsciously grabbed each other's hands as the red light enveloped their bodies.
After letting go of his hand, Charles asked, "What time is it?"
Since the person who takes care of him is a dwarf, it means that this is the territory of the dwarf, and he doesn't have to worry about accidents.
"About two o'clock in the morning. The dwarf said, "Since you have woken up, I will retire, and it is common for you to fall asleep after receiving the grace of God, so rest well." If you're hungry, there's food on the table. ”
This is the guest room area on the north side of the wall of the Forge Temple, and it is a place for distinguished guests. As Charles, he is qualified to live in a suite here.
The two of them were hungry too, so they went to the table in the dining room.
In addition to the juice, the dwarves also prepared white bread with raisins.
"Do you have any clue about today?" asked Charles.
Charles, who was chewing bread, shook his head, "I don't have a clue other than knowing who the mother of the first Earl of Maccaden was and who Elizabeth's father was." My ancestors don't seem to know where they are going or what they are going to do. Looks like I'm going to have to ask the Elven Queen. ”
Then he said to Diana, "Wait for you to sleep in bed, I'll just sleep on the sofa in the living room." ”
