With the advent of the steam engine, Invig won the glorious war that lasted for a hundred years, and with the end of the war, Invig became dominant in the Western world...... This is a history that many people are familiar with, but in this history that people are accustomed to, there are things that are deliberately hidden.

Victorian royal family.

The royal family is the supreme ruler of Invig, but the strange thing is that they seem to deliberately avoid the eyes of the people, and the executive power is coordinated by other departments, which is so deliberate that people sometimes forget that there is a queen in their country.

Even more coincidental is the history, with the rise of Victoria I, Invig entered the Victorian period, and it was also at this time that the Glorious War broke out, and along with the outbreak of this war, there are also those things that are now known, such as the steam engine, the purification mechanism, the snake of the Atrium, the original sin armor, the Dunling Project......

The emergence of each of these things is a great process of history, but it is concentrated in the Victorian period, as if from the time of Victoria I's coronation, Invig's history has been pressed the accelerator button, and everything has passed quickly.

"I remember the rumors, which Merlin told me, but with the royal lockdown of secrets, few people know about them. ”

Abigail leaned close to the glass case and looked at the mouse that had been injected with two types of blood, looking in pain, nestled in the corner, shaking incessantly.

"Curses run through the blood of the Victorian royal family. They say that Victoria I was the child of her mother and the devil, and that she had devilish blood in her veins, so she could easily get what she wanted, but in exchange, she and her offspring were also tormented by a curse.

Are you really the children of the devil? ”

Abigail turned and looked at the boy in the wheelchair.

"Abigail!"

Arthur scolded that the royal family had long since blocked information, and now fewer and fewer people know about these secrets.

"Don't get excited, just a little curious, after all, I'm a doctor, Ovis is a patient, I should always know why he is like this, shouldn't I?"

Abigail approached Ovis, and through the goggles, the boy could see the eyes of the woman behind them.

"Blood is difficult to clot, it's like an anticoagulant, as long as there is a little wound, you will bleed non-stop, the wound on the surface of the body is better to say, what is more deadly is the bleeding in your body...... I don't know if you should say that you are brave or stupid, with such a curse, you dare to pilot the original sin armor, and if you are not careful, you will die in the cockpit. ”

In Abigail's eyes, Ovis is a delicate glass doll that can shatter him with a little force, but such a glass doll that requires a wheelchair to move will become a nightmare for many people after wearing the original sin armor, and will be named Naranslot.

It's hard to believe that a single body of armor can change so much, make a person so contrasting.

"But what's even more strange is that the king's blood also has a 'withering' property, if you don't treat the wound for a long time, the flesh at the edge of the wound will wither and rot like a plant, and in this your blood is still extremely active, it is simply boiling blood, and there is also a property that is resistant to erosion, is that right? Arthur. Abigail asked.

"The above can be determined, as for erosion resistance, I don't know, after all, Ovis is the only member of the royal family known to be able to leave the Platinum Palace, and he is the only experimental specimen we have experimented with. ”

Arthur said that he was not only the head of the purification agency, but he was also the Duke of Phoenix, so he had a special status and knew more about these things.

"The Victorian royal family has a tough attitude towards the royal curse, and after realizing this, the Victorian royal family pretended to recall all members with royal blood, gathered them in the Platinum Palace, and put them under house arrest, I have to say that Queen Victoria's cruelty, in order to prevent the spread of this curse, she used the sacred palace as a cage, imprisoning all the royal blood, and it is still the case today. ”

"This is a restraint, but also a kind of protection, otherwise with the terrible nature of this royal curse, maybe we will fall and cause internal bleeding to death. ”

Ovis said at this time, he looked at his pale and somewhat withered arms, he was not the most miserable, compared to those royals who were trapped in the platinum palace forever, he had at least a short period of freedom, driving the original sin armor through the old Dun Spirit, which was difficult for those royals to experience in their lifetimes.

"It's a tragedy, to have the supreme power in this kingdom, and yet to be trapped in that vain palace. ”

Abigail sighed and continued.

"There was a response. ”

The eyes of the three were drawn to the agitation in the glass case, and the geiger counter made a sharp chirp, and the body of the mouse began to twist, and the withered and festering wound began to swell, far exceeding the amount of blood it carried, but instead of dying, it became more alive.

The distorted bone poked out from under the skin, and it slammed into the glass case with a fierce appearance, and for a moment the solid glass case was covered with cracks.

"Arthur!"

Abigail shouted that their experiment was still too risky, and Arthur opened fire at the first opportunity, the bullet piercing through the glass case and then through the guinea pig's head, and the viscous blood exploded, evenly smearing the surrounding instruments, splashing Abigail blood-red.

But this did not seem to be the end, the headless corpse paused for a moment, then became agitated again, and Ovis's eyes constricted, he knew very well what was going on.

"Demon ...... Arthur, you didn't kill it completely!"

In a short period of time, the secret blood not only restrained the curse of the king's blood, but also transformed the mouse into a demon.

The demon is an extremely terrifying creature, and if it pierces its heart, its violent will can still drive its body to continue fighting, and if it only cuts off its head, it will not die in the first place, but will follow its instinctive bloodthirst.

This is also the reason why the demons want to destroy the head and heart, only in this way can they be completely powerless, this is Arthur's negligence, he did not expect that the alienation would be so fast and so thorough.

By the time he was about to fire a second shot, the mouse had already arched itself and leaped in an extremely swift way, its sharp claws cutting directly through Abigail's hazmat suit, but fortunately she was wearing enough that it didn't hurt her, and it was at this moment that Ovis struggled to get up from his wheelchair and grab the lancet beside him.

He was a child, and he was Lancelot, and the crackling of steel rang out between the lightning and flint, and the lancet struck the mouse in mid-air with precision, piercing its heart and nailing it to the wall.

Ovis leaned forward in full, but Arthur was able to hold him in time, but even so, a large amount of blood was running down his arm.

He abruptly got up and pulled the needles off, and Abigail hurriedly treated his wounds to stop the bleeding.

Ovis gasped, the feeling of blood loss was really bad, like a bottle full of water, and he was being emptied little by little, as if his soul was flowing with the blood, until he was left with a dry shell.

This is the royal curse, as he grows older, this corrosion of the body becomes more and more intense, when Ovis was still young, he can still run the grass, but as he grows older, coupled with the blessing of the original sin armor, he becomes more and more fragile, even if he walks for a long time, it may cause his joints to wear and bleed, so he can only sit in a wheelchair.

The same is true of the royals in the Platinum Palace, whose souls are imprisoned in this mournful body, which is why Queen Victoria is so tough this time, and the Protestant Order brings a little hope, in which Lorenzo is not worth mentioning.

"That guy...... Lorenzo Holmes, it's terrible......"

Abigail asked as he palpitated as Ovis stopped the bleeding.

"You've been working with that kind of guy?"

"What's wrong?"

Arthur also helps, helping Ovis back to his wheelchair.

"Secret blood, such a terrible secret blood, in such a short period of time, has turned a guinea pig into this weird thing......"

Abigail said and glanced at the crucified guinea pig, which was still wriggling and wriggling, though it had been weakened.

Lorenzo had this blood all over his body, and this blood changed him little by little as he got older. ”

"Do you think the secret blood can cure the King's Curse?" asked Arthur.

"Perhaps, at least it did invalidate the spell. ”

Abigail got up and examined the mouse's corpse, the wound healing so quickly that the anticoagulant properties of the Spell had completely disappeared.

"Wait for Merlin to come, he is an alchemist, and this work of refining secret blood should be entrusted to him. ”

The two of them conversed as they dealt with the mess in the area, the demonic erosion was a memetic pollution that could be passed between different mediums, and while the effect would be greatly reduced, it might be alarming, now that it was covered with contaminants and had to be dealt with as soon as possible.

Ovis didn't make a sound, wondering if he didn't feel the pain, or if he was used to it, he looked at the crucified guinea pig, and after some time, he asked.

"What if you succeed in your research on the King's Spell and restart the Ranger Project?"

"Then the Victorian royal family will be freed from the curse, and you will no longer be bound by the Platinum Palace. ”

Abigail said without looking up.

Ovis was still staring at the mouse, its docile body was gone, it had become as hideous and terrifying as the monsters Ovis had killed.

"But is that really right?"

"What are you thinking, you stinky boy, we're saving your life!" Abigail yelled.

"No...... I just feel like it's like substituting one curse for another. ”

Ovis hung his head, not knowing what to think again.

"Another ...... An even more vicious curse. ”
