CH.32 The Cemetery
The next night, An Rui took the Lord of Nissa Island and a group of officers and soldiers to the place where the blood inheritance was buried.
This matter is not trivial, it is related to the future rise and fall of Xingyue Island, Nissa naturally can't wait too long, and forced An Rui to bring her here early.
Although Nissa didn't say it explicitly, Anrui could guess what would happen if he didn't find the Blood Inheritance, and the female island owner wasn't that easy to mess with. Fortunately, he knows it in his heart and has full certainty.
"Here it is." An Rui snorted forward. Nissa and the others followed his movements, looking ahead.
Beneath the moonlight is a vast cemetery, surrounded by iron bars, each with marble tombstones. Around the cemetery, there are many plants, but in this dark and miserable night, they still look lifeless. Two crows stood on a branch that stretched out like ghost's claws, one combing its fur and the other staring at the people outside the cemetery with its round eyes.
At the main entrance of the cemetery, there is an iron door plaque with the words "Parker Royal Family Cemetery" written on the door plaque.
This is where Nissa's ancestors are buried.
Nissa's ancestors are buried here, and it makes sense that the blood inheritance will be here, but the problem is ......
"I've searched this place a long time ago, but I haven't found anything, are you sure the Bloodline Inheritance is here?" Nissa was skeptical.
The exact location of the blood succession is not a secret, and can only be passed down from generation to generation through the heirs of the island, due to the sudden death of Nissa's grandfather. She didn't have time to tell her father the specific location of the blood inheritance, which led to the loss of the location of the blood inheritance. Afterwards, her father, as well as herself, had searched for the location of the lineage on several occasions. But they all ended in failure.
"I'm pretty sure it's exactly what I saw in my dream, and I remember even the two crows vividly." An Rui raised his hand and pointed to the two crows on the branch, and the two black birds flew away, as if they didn't like to be pointed at.
"If the Blood Inheritance is here, why haven't I been able to find it before?" Nissa asked again.
"There are some things that you can't just find. You are a fire wizard. It should be known that the magic of magic is that wizards are better at hide and seek than ordinary people. ”
"Alright, you can find out the blood inheritance for me now. As we agreed before. If you can help me find the blood lineage, I will grant you two reasonable conditions. ”
This is the agreement that An Rui made with the owner of Nissa Island before he came, but the specific conditions have not yet been set. Before finding the Bloodline. Talking about any conditions is empty talk.
"Lord Nissa and all the officers and soldiers. Come with me. Anrui walked into the cemetery first, past one cemetery after another.
Most of the tombstones that stand in front of the cemetery bear the surname Parker, but there are also some people with other surnames who are side members of the family.
Finally, Anrui walked to a cemetery in the center of the cemetery. The cemetery is quite old, more or less dilapidated, and there is no inscription on the tombstone in front of the cemetery. It's bare, and I don't know which ancestor of the Parker family is buried inside.
"This is the gateway to the Land of Blood Inheritance. It needs the blood of the orthodox descendants of the Parker family to open it," Anrui stretched out his palm and wiped it on the old tombstone, wiping off a little dust. He turned his head sideways and looked at the Nissa Island Lord not far behind him, "It's up to you next, please cut your hand and write the surname Parker on it with blood." Once written, your ancestors will open this hidden door for you. ”
Nissa walked over to the tombstone and raised her palm, and now she had to do whatever Anrui said.
"Your Majesty, you are in noble health, do you want to call the other descendants of the Parker family to try?" An official leaned up and asked.
"No, I'll try it myself." With that, Nissa raised her other hand and slashed it down on the nape of her right hand, and a sharp flash of magic flashed, and a deep cut was made in the nam.
With a wave of her hand, Nissa magically wiped the tombstone clean, then pressed her finger down on it. Blood immediately oozed from the wound, staining the touched area red. Her fingers moved slowly, sketching out her proud last name.
Parker.
With the last stroke finished, Nissa withdrew her hand and stared at the surface of the tombstone expectantly.
The others also focused their eyes on the stone tablet, and even those who didn't believe in An Rui's heartbeat involuntarily accelerated at this moment.
What happened next did not disappoint everyone.
"Buzz."
The red handwriting buzzed, then brightened up visibly.
"Buzz."
It was a second sound, and the brightness of the font increased.
Then a third, a fourth, and even more sounds, as if something was about to break through the ground.
"Click!"
With a crisp sound, the stele cracked open and moved to the sides, and a staircase leading to the ground flashed out, black underneath, without any light, like a staircase leading to hell.
"Oh my God! There was a staircase! ”
"Is the Blood Inheritance down there?"
"It's incredible."
There was a burst of exclamations from the crowd around them, some of them couldn't believe what was happening in front of them.
Nissa's performance was the most intense, after all, it was their family's blood lineage, and it was inextricably linked to her, and she was more anxious to find it than anyone present. She looked at the stairs leading to the bottom, her delicate body trembled with excitement, and the pair of extremely plump balls on her chest shook violently a few times, and the soft waves surged.
"Judging from the magic fluctuations emanating from below, this should be an 'independent space', no wonder I couldn't find this place back then." Nissa looked down the stairs, her eyes glowing with fire, this kind of independent space is not something that anyone can carve out, only extremely powerful wizards can do. The appearance of this staircase has added seventy percent credibility to An Rui's words.
"Yes, this place is located in a rift in space, and it cannot be found without specific means." An Rui nodded and said happily. Before, these people always didn't believe him, but now that the facts are in front of him, he finally raised his eyebrows.
"What's down here, and what can I do to get the bloodline inheritance inside?"
"It's a little complicated to say, the blood inheritance is below, but it's not that you can get it by going, and you still need to go through some tests. There is a magical enchantment here, and you can only go down to two people at most, and more than two people will be ostracized. My suggestion is that you go down with the two of me, so that I can be there to guide you on what to do and help you find the blood lineage. ”
"You're going down with me?" Nissa looked uneasy.
"In the dream, I went down with you and helped you find the blood inheritance. If someone else goes down with you, I can't guarantee that there won't be an accident. Anrui took out the dream as a shield again. The reason why he insisted on going down with Nissa was, of course, not to be a good person, but to take the sheep by the hand and get something from here. The value of this thing is no less than the blood inheritance itself!
After some hesitation, Nissa finally agreed, because she was afraid that not following Anrui's dream would cause an accident, and second, because she was a very powerful fire wizard and had the ability to protect herself.
Against all odds, Nissa and Anrui walked down the stairs together, one lit by flames and the other with glowing stones, illuminating the path below.
Halfway down the road, there was a staircase engraved with the following line: "This place is forbidden to be disturbed by outsiders, and at most only two people can enter by one descendant of the Parker family and a loyal guard." ”
"I'm the loyal guard." An Rui patted his chest and said cheekily.
"I hope so." Nissa stepped over the staircase engraved with words and continued her descending.
Anrui shrugged his shoulders and followed.
The staircase was very long, at least a few hundred steps, and the two of them walked for a long time to reach the bottom. At the end of the staircase is a long corridor, which is also so long that you can't see the end at a glance. The promenade is flanked by unpretentious stone walls with no superfluous decorations.
"There's no danger here, is there?" Nissa looked at the corridor in front of her and asked with a thin frown, it's not that she doesn't believe in her ancestors, it's just that it's too eerie.
"The danger is ahead, not here." An Rui didn't stop when he spoke, he was still walking forward, looking relaxed.
Infected by Anrui, Nissa relaxed a little, regained her steps, and walked forward boldly.
The two of them reached the end of the hallway, and a door appeared on the opposite side, and a few lines were written on the door: "Behind this door, my power is buried, and the descendants of the Parker clan can come and obtain it when necessary." In order to prevent the power from falling into the hands of the unscrupulous, I have set up a threefold test, and only through the test can we obtain this power. The triple test is very dangerous, and before you open the door, you must have the awareness of dying here. ”
"Well, I'm right. The danger is ahead. Anrui pointed to the door in front of him.
"What do these three tests refer to?" Nissa asked nervously.
"The test is courage, wisdom and love. Fire will test your courage, riddles will test your wit, and illusions will test your love. An Rui replied mysteriously.
"I don't understand, you are talking about the specifics."
"I don't understand it, but after opening the door, you'll naturally understand what I'm saying." Anrui pointed to the door in front of him.
Nissa hesitantly raised her hand, pressed it against the door, and gave it a gentle push.
The door flashed with a flash of light, and then it opened on its own, revealing the path ahead.
Behind the door, there was a raging sea of fire. (To be continued......)
