Chapter 285: The Dead
Thirty-six worlds, in addition to the spiritual world, the world-class ten thousand vines in the Hidden Forest and the world-class demon wolf in the Golden World are willing to cooperate with Xu Fei, but the ten thousand vines in the Hidden Forest are unwilling to leave the Hidden Forest, if they are willing to leave, this world-class life to guard the future Xinghai Sect, then I am afraid that the safety in the wild world will be greatly increased, but it is a pity that it is unwilling.
As for that world-class demon wolf, it is also an unrestrained existence, it would be good to be able to reach an agreement to be an offering, how could it be bound to the Xinghai Sect?
Xu Fei is not only interested in friendship with the world, but also because these worlds are extremely vast, although the environment is harsh, but there are all kinds of resources in them.
For example, all kinds of strange fruit wood produced in the Hidden Forest, wood with wood attributes can be used to forge some divine weapons, etc., and the world of gold produces some rare ores, which can be used to make high-strength alloys, and can also be carved and cast some weapons. These are what Xu Fei values the most.
With these worlds, even if there is any earth-shattering crisis for mankind in the future, there will be a way out and a place to go.
"Which world do you want to go to after that?" Lin Ziyi asked.
"The World of the Dead."
In the dark night, the cold wind was like a knife, mixed with snowflakes, and made a terrible whistling sound.
It stands to reason that very few people should go out in such a blizzard, even during the day, there is a danger of getting lost in the blizzard, let alone late at night. At this time, at the foot of the mountain, which is thirty miles outside Kaifeng City, two people braved the strong wind and stepped on the snow to walk hard towards the mountainside.
Lisa was dressed in a thick cotton coat, one hand was on a branch, groping in the dark, the oil lamp she brought when she came had already been blown out by the wind, and she could only walk forward by memory, the road on the mountainside had been repaired half a month ago, otherwise it would have been more dangerous.
The wind and snow were mixed and it was cold, but Lisa didn't feel the chill at this time, because the snow and strong wind made the road difficult to walk, which made her expend a lot of physical strength, and she was already tired and panting and sweating.
The people who were blown by the blizzard could hardly open their eyes, and it was dark all around, Lisa could only barely see the figure walking in front of her, and seeing the steady pace of the figure, a trace of admiration flashed in Lisa's eyes.
She didn't expect this Mr. Filin to have such physical strength and courage.
In such a blizzard, most people dare not go up the mountain even during the day, let alone at night. If you step on the air, you are likely to fall off a cliff and be seriously injured even if you don't die. And being seriously injured in this blizzard weather is tantamount to throwing yourself into the arms of the god of the underworld.
Lisa knew she couldn't do such a thing. Because she couldn't do it, she admired Filin very much.
After walking for a moment, Mr. Filin stopped.
Lisa gasped softly, wrapped her clothes, walked to Lin Fei's side, and asked in a puzzled voice, "Mr. Feilin, why don't you leave?" ”
Lin Fei's eyes narrowed slightly, the wind and snow and the darkness didn't seem to be able to block his vision, he reached out and picked up the branch in Lisa's hand and pointed forward.
"That's the castle on Moon Bluff, isn't it?"
Lisa covered the wind and snow with one hand, barely keeping her eyes open in the storm, and tried to look ahead, only to see that it was pitch black.
After being silent for a moment, she began to calculate the distance she had traveled and the direction of this mountain road in her heart, and gradually became surprised in her heart, although she had not been to this castle a few times, she still knew the specific location, and the direction that Lin Fei pointed to was similar to the location of the castle in her memory.
She was sure that Mr. "Filin" had never been to Moon Bluff, but how could he see the castle in the dark?
Doubts are doubts, but this thought did not hover in Lisa's mind for long before being replaced by joy, she felt that Lin Fei could do things that ordinary people could not do, and he must not be ordinary people, so she had a lot of confidence in what she wanted, and said happily: "We are almost to the Moon Cliff, there is a mountain road close to the cliff in front of us, just enough for a carriage to pass through, and after walking three hundred meters on the mountain road, we will reach the Moon Cliff, and there is a man-made bridge leading to the opposite mountain on the Moon Cliff, and the ancient castle is on the opposite mountain wall." ”
This mountain and the adjacent mountain look like a conjoined baby, just split from the middle of the general, divided into east and west two mountains, the east side of the mountain is lush with trees and natural mountain path, although winding and steep, but at least you can walk, and the face of the east mountain is like a whetstone mountain wall, very smooth and steep, and the east mountain across the canyon, this smooth mountain wall has a natural platform, and the east side of the mountain road is only two or three hundred meters away.
Whenever the moon rises, the moonlight will pass through this canyon and shine on the entire cliff, which is very beautiful, so it is also called Moon Cliff.
This castle is hundreds of years old, located in the middle of this mountain, and the builders of this castle have made full use of the topography of this mountain, and built the castle on the platform of the mountain to the west, which looks like it is one with the mountain wall in the distance, which is very spectacular, and the only way to enter and exit the castle is the long stone bridge that connects the two sides of the canyon.
The two walked through the wind and snow, over a dangerous mountain road, and onto the stone bridge.
The stone bridge is located above the canyon, so the wind and snow are more urgent. Lisa breathed a sigh of relief in the darkness as she could faintly see the railing on the edge of the stone bridge and the faint light of the castle in the distance.
The railings were all newly built, and the weathered fences that were hundreds of years old had been replaced, so there was a sense of security when you walked up the stone bridge.
But as she got closer to the castle, Lisa's heart was replaced by worry. Looking at the back walking in front of me, I pinned my hopes on this Mr. Filin.
The lights of the castle passed over, making Lisa's heart feel a little warm, but as soon as she walked to the gate of the castle, two voices were heard in the dark night.
"This is the private domain of Lord Count Perio, trespassing to death." This was followed by the sound of a sword drawn.
Lin Fei's eyesight was excellent, he had already seen these two people, and stopped when he heard their cheers.
Lisa was not surprised when she heard the voice, and said in a loud voice, "Ed, Willy, it's me, Lisa." ”
The two also heard Lisa's voice, so they stopped their movements and said suspiciously, "Lisa? What are you doing here? Didn't you go to Iwata Castle? Who is he? ”
Lisa walked up and patiently explained to the two of them.
Lin Fei knew that Lisa was explaining her origin, so he didn't say anything, and raised his head to look at this majestic castle. There is wind and snow in the distance, and it is on the side of the mountain wall, so it is difficult to see the front of the castle without standing on the opposite side.
The castle is 800 years old and was built during the Holy Empire, and its first owner was General Andres, a famous general of the Holy Empire. The period of the Holy Empire was the most prosperous period in human history, because the territory of the Holy Empire during this period was huge, and great progress was made in all aspects, including architecture, humanities, military and so on.
But even such great empires have fallen apart, and six hundred years ago, the Holy Empire fell apart, splitting into five kingdoms and many principalities. In the midst of the war, many texts and buildings were destroyed, which led to a lot of regression in many aspects of human civilization.
There are not many castles left in the Holy Empire style like this in the entire kingdom of Pablos.
Lin Fei was not interested in mainland history, he knew it because it was related to his mission. He wasn't interested in architecture either, and the reason why he looked at the castle was to see if there was anything wrong with it.
From the outside, there was nothing wrong with this ancient castle, but Lin Fei knew that sometimes there was nothing wrong with it, but it was even more tricky.
Over there, Willy and Ed learned about Lisa's intention to invite Lin Fei, and entered the castle to inform the owner of the castle. After a while, Willie walked out, his face much kinder, and motioned for the two to go in.
Entering the castle, led by Lisa, through the bright corridor, Lin Fei came to a living room.
The living room is not big, but it is gorgeously decorated, and the flames in the white fireplace are very hot, and you can feel a burst of warmth as soon as you enter.
At this time, eight people were sitting at the presiding table in the living room. The main seat was a handsome blond young man in gorgeous and well-dressed clothes, who was none other than the eldest son of Count Perio, who was known as the "Knight of the Sun". Behind him stood a large man in armor named Kane, who was Vane's guardian knight.
To the left of the long table is a priest holding a sacred canon and two youths dressed in temple warrior uniforms. As for the three people on the right, they were wearing fox, wolf, and tiger masks, and wearing cloak robes, and when they looked at Lin Fei carefully, they all wore white gloves and wrapped themselves tightly, as if they didn't want people to know their true identities.
The clothes of the three people with masks were very similar to Lin Fei's, except that Lin Fei didn't wear masks.
Before he came, Lin Fei had heard Lisa say that there were three people with extraordinary abilities. Now it seems that these three people are those three people with extraordinary abilities. In the Pablos Kingdom, although the relationship between the temple and the supernatural ability is not as tense as in the northern country, there is still some friction, so Lin Fei can understand that these three people are dressed like this.
As soon as Lin Fei came in, everyone looked at Lin Fei, except for the earl's son Vain, who frowned slightly, everyone showed a puzzled look. Apparently, the guard named Willie had only been informed to Vane alone.
Lisa stepped forward and was about to explain the specific situation to the young and handsome earl's son on the throne, but the young man stopped Lisa, who was a little helpless, but did not dare to disobey the earl's son, so she had to walk behind the big man in armor.
Lin Fei put down the hat of his cloak, revealing his short black hair and black eyes, and gave a chest salute to Vane, "Demon Hunter Filin has seen Sun Knight. ”
The name "Sun Knight" has nothing to do with his own strength, it is a symbol of status, and he has been canonized, and this name is more noble than his status as the son of the earl, so most people call him Sun Knight when they see Vane. Of course, if he inherits the title of earl, this title of Knight of the Sun will be gone, and people will call him Count Perio.
Black hair and black eyes were not common on the mainland, and everyone was a little surprised when Lin Fei revealed his true face.
Vane didn't expect Lin Fei's appearance to be different from ordinary people, and after being slightly stunned, he frowned imperceptibly. Generally speaking, at this time, Vane should have introduced the identities of the other people to Lin Fei out of politeness, that is, the three mages and the priest of the temple. But Wayne's performance at this time was extremely cold, and he ignored Lin Fei.
Although Vane knew the purpose of Lin Fei's coming, he was very disgusted with Lin Fei's identity.
Seeing Vane's cold attitude, Lisa glanced at Lin Fei apologetically.
Lin Fei didn't mind the young nobleman's coldness, because he knew why the young nobleman was like this. And he didn't come because of this young nobleman, if it weren't for the fact that this young nobleman was the son of the owner of this castle, he Lin Fei wouldn't have bothered to greet him.
Speaking of which, the main culprit that caused Vane to hate witchers so much was Lisa.
In the past few days, Lisa has invited several "senior" witchers, but these witchers died and were injured in the process of removing spirits in this castle, not only did they not save Epheria, but also caused Count Perio to spend a lot of money to comfort these dead and wounded. All of this was seen by the young noble young master, so he didn't have a good impression of these so-called witchers at all.
Seeing Lin Fei's thin and even somewhat weak body, Vane's guardian knight Kane couldn't help but sneer: "Lisa invited you here?" You can go back. There is a priest of the temple and three noble Beings of Extraordinary Ability, so there is no need for a low-level witcher like you. ! ”
The Demon Hunters are basically composed of wandering warriors in the kingdom of Pablos, and most of these people have only mastered some of the most basic methods of eliminating demons, using tools made of salt or silver and holy water to eliminate demons, and they do not have miraculous powers or extraordinary powers.
The priest and the three supernatural beings in the living room are all people with miraculous powers and extraordinary powers in Kane's opinion, and with the existence of such people, it should not be difficult to get rid of the evil spirits in the castle, and there is no need for ordinary witchers to deal with the evil spirits in the castle.
What's more, Kane felt that Lin Fei was thin, not like a martial artist at all, but more like a liar.
Lin Fei had heard of Kane when he came to Kaifeng City, this person was the number one master under Count Perio, born with divine power and bravery, but his personality was extremely arrogant and irritable, so Lin Fei didn't want to entangle with him, so he found a place to sit down and said lightly: "Mr. Kane, I think you have misunderstood something!" I have not accepted the commission of you or His Excellency the Sun Knight, nor the commission of Count Perio, I have come here at the commission of Miss Lisa. She had already paid me a hundred gold coins, so Miss Lisa was the only one who was entitled to let me go. And you're not one of them. ”
"You ......" Kane was furious when he saw that a small witcher dared to contradict him, and wanted to teach Lin Fei a lesson, but was stopped by Vane waving his hand.
Vane heard Lin Fei's words before he stopped it, although he didn't like Lin Fei either, but he held his own identity and didn't want to see Lin Fei as a civilian, and in his mind, the best outcome was that Lin Fei could contribute to the rescue of his sister, and the worst result was that he died in the hands of evil spirits, which had nothing to do with him, anyway, it was Lisa who paid for it. Even if she dies, the person who spends money and money to pay for it is Lisa.
Since it has nothing to do with yourself, it is good to have more strength.
"Young master, why did you stop me, let me teach this kid a lesson who doesn't know the height of the sky!"
