Chapter 31: Epitaph
Gail withdrew his fingers and placed them on his left chest, quietly lowering his head.
Heloise did the same.
Robin was stunned for a moment, and quickly followed them, raising his hands to his chest.
He quietly looked at the tombstone in front of him and the statue on it, chewing on the epitaph Gale had just read -
The Vampire's nemesis, and the last wish that the vampire will never come again, are indicative of the experience of this tomb owner, another warrior associated with vampires.
A.D. 1218 ~ A.D. 1244, 26 years old, really young.
Not sure what happened at the time.
What's more, Robin doesn't know exactly how many years it is.
However, Gail immediately told him the answer -
"In 1240, 107 years ago, after the end of the bloody war more than 300 years ago, the Western Continent ushered in another war with the Holy Blood Empire.
Catherine Jaylen Bartoli, the vampire king and king of the eternal night, regrouped her army and once again invaded the Western Continent from Longwan. “
"Wait a minute." Robin interrupted her and asked suspiciously, "I seem to remember that in the bloody war more than 300 years ago, the vampire ruler was called by this name, and the Catherine King behind was the same person as the one before me?" ”
Gail and Heloise nodded at the same time.
Robin's heart shuddered.
Mom, a vampire has lived for so many years?
"Yes, vampires live a long lifespan, several times longer than ours, and there are even legends that as long as they are not killed, they will live forever."
"But what does the vampire population have to become?" Robin bluntly voiced the doubts in his mind.
If immortality and the population swells, it will inevitably lead to a shortage of resources, and he suddenly understands that those vampires will be happy to invade the Western Continent again and again.
"So," Gail said with a frown, "the vampires, even after losing the bloody war and greatly reducing their population, have grown again and made a comeback in the space of 200 years. This time, the number of vampires who came was several times greater than the bloody war. ”
"After the first bloody war, after receiving the news of the invasion of the blood clans, the three kingdoms immediately united together, and this time joined the resistance, as well as the newly formed Pyroxon Alliance, the Windwingers, and the descendants of the frost giants and orcs, we united with unprecedented sincere cooperation, under the leadership of their respective leaders, unified under the command of the great [penitent] Thea Ross of King Itnell. But ......"
Gail hesitated, remembering what she knew, his eyes sad, "Even so, the war has taken a heavy toll on the whole world.
In this war, the Western Continent lost almost more than half of their lives, and the Holy Blood Empire also paid a terrible price for it, not only did they lose most of the population, but at the same time, in order to completely eliminate the vampires, the combined forces braved the wind and waves all the way to the Holy Blood Empire...... If it weren't for the fact that ......"
Gail couldn't find the right words for a moment, frowning and falling into thought.
"Split." Heloise took over her words and said in a low and hoarse voice, "There is no need to make any excuses for those people, it is originally a combination of different countries, and after gaining the advantage, it is natural that they will also break the covenant for the sake of profit." Therefore, the great opportunity to slaughter the vampires in order to get rid of the future troubles was given up by those stupid ancestors because of all kinds of selfish interests.
Itnair stopped when they reached the elven capital of Moonlight, and the Sykorids were anxious to take over the southeastern mines, while the Pyroxons made a deal with their own army...... In exchange for the result, it can only be a fiasco. ”
Heloise said this, with a look of regret, "At this point, we have to admire the bravery and greatness of King Catherine, even though she is a vampire, our mortal enemy, but, in the case of the imminent collapse of the Empire, the King of the Eternal Night used her powerful diplomatic skills to tear apart the alliance army and delay the pace of their attack.
Then, she resolutely launched an attack, and the Holy Blood Empire gathered the remnants and drove the alliance army back, and no one took advantage of it. The King of the Eternal Night has a strong military mind and extraordinary courage, and despite the fact that everyone is at the end of the crossbow, she still insists on fighting back to the Western Continent.
So, right here, on the Crimson Cloud Coast, where the holy blood flows, an extremely tragic battle took place.
The conscience of Sekorid, the hero of the future, Kaye Flynn, the Templar leader at the time, led the thirty-six knights to the invading vampire army when everyone was terrified.
Yes, you heard it right, thirty-six.
And the other party has more than 300 people. “
As she said this, she let out a low sigh and folded her hands to her chest.
Gail looked at her in surprise, never realizing that Heloise, the instructor who seemed to be not good at words, would actually talk endlessly.
And that kind of outspoken, truthful description of history may be more suitable to convey to Lord Robin.
Heloise's voice was hoarse and deep, and the history she spoke had a different taste of iron.
"The rest of the matter, Gail, you can go on." Seemingly tired, Heloise gasped for a long breath and spat on the ground.
"......" Robin looked helpless.
"Speaking of what came next," said Gail, his eyes shining with a light as if to tell of the great achievements of his own experience that made him proud, "thanks to the timely reflection of our King Thearose did not disgrace Itnair and preserved her reputation as the Immortal King, and because of this, King Thea was called the Confessor."
Thea I led two hundred knights and thirteen magisters to reinforcements, and it was in that war that the magicians established their high historical status.
In the face of powerful vampires, except for the hero Kaye Flynn and a few Sin Hell Realm warriors, the difference between others and vampires is too obvious, and the strength of the magus has become the key to the victory or defeat of this battle.
The Thirteen Magus wielded a powerful force that turned the tide of the battle.
After three days and three nights of fighting, we finally defeated the vampires and thwarted their invasion once again. It is only because all countries have suffered heavy losses and have no spare strength to fight that the pattern of the time has been retained and has continued to this day. ”
There was a hint of regret in Gail's eyes, and he used his fingers to ruffle his long, windswept hair to his ears, "But the names of those heroes have been passed down from now on. Kaye Flynn is remembered for her high quality and prestige. After her death, the people of Sekorid buried her here, in accordance with her wishes.
Kaye Flynn hopes that after her death, she will continue to watch over the land, and that the vampires will never come again. “
