Chapter 45: The Ruins of Krimatha (6)

"Hydra Knight, not available?"

"Yes, he's not available. ”

"Are you so busy staying at Lorgotsenny?"

"Uh......" Belle replied hesitantly, "Actually, he's a little uncomfortable." ”

"Isn't it feeling well, do you need me to get the doctor over?" asked Cornelia.

"No, no. Belle smiled and replied, "How can the Blood Elf doctor understand the diseases of the Blood Clan?" The Hydra Knight can solve it by himself, so don't worry. ”

Cornelia looked skeptical, but she didn't say anything. Instead, he asked, "What about Miss Dora? and Mr. William." What about the two of them? Can I meet them?"

"Hmm...... Not very convenient. ”

"Why, are they sick too?" said Cornelia.

"No, they ...... To take care of the Hydra Knight, there is no time. Belle replied calmly.

"Okay, in that case, when the Hydra Knight recovers, please let me know. ”

"I will. The Hydra Knight is looking forward to seeing Her Royal Highness again before leaving. ”

"I'll arrange it for him. ”

"Thank you. ”

The two bowed to each other in silence, and then Cornelia left.

Belle stood in place with a helpless expression. He took a deep breath and sighed, "How long will it take for them to come back? It's just a ruin, it shouldn't take long, right?"

......

At this moment, in the ruins......

"This way...... Wait, just go this way. It's not right, it should be ...... this way."

"Don't you sense the Grave Keeper?" Jones asked, frowning.

"Yes, I do perceive it. But the location of the Tomb Keeper is not fixed. They're going to move, you know?" Andrew glanced at Jones, then moved on, casually saying, "I'll have to estimate their movements." It's always good to be careful. In case of a collision, you also know what the consequences are. ”

"Oh, I don't really know. We've escaped alive from the Grave Keeper more than once, and if we're careful, we'll be fine. Are you afraid I'll leave you?"

"Do you think there's only one kind of Tomb Keeper? There are many types of Tomb Keepers, and the weakest ones we've just seen. What will be the next Tomb Keeper, you and I don't know. Maybe it's faster than you? There's only one life, and we're not lich who can return to the soul box, so don't risk it. ”

After walking for a while, Andrew suddenly stopped, then turned his head to look at the eaves of a nearby door, and looked at it with wide eyes. It seems to be trying to discern something from the already mutilated text.

After looking at it for a while, he pointed to the door and said, "This way." Then he stepped in.

Jones, Dora, and Turu followed.

"Are you Andrew's mercenary?" Jones asked Turru as he marched.

"No, I'm the master's apprentice. Tulu replied a little stunned.

"Orc mage? No, I should say that it was an orc shaman. ”

"No, it's an orc mage. Not a shaman. Turu replied earnestly.

"How did you come up with the idea of taking this guy as a teacher?" Jones looked at him with a sneering expression: "Maybe you can take me as a teacher, I must be better than Andrew, and I won't take you to this kind of ghost place casually." ”

Turu looked at Jones cautiously and did not answer.

Andrew, who was walking in front, glanced back at Jones and didn't speak.

After another moment, Andrew led them to a huge, closed stone door.

"Jones, come here. Andrew looked back and said.

"What are you going to do?" Jones snapped into war.

"Nothing, it takes your blood to open the stone door. I hope this stone gate is not broken. Andrew pointed to a small groove next to the stone door and said, "Bite your finger and rub your blood into it." ”

"Wait, what do you mean? I don't understand. ”

"It is to open the door with your blood. This is called the 'blood gauge', and it requires human blood to open. ”

"But I'm not human. ”

Andrew was helpless: "The blood clan is human. If you want a drop of blood, you won't be able to try. ”

"Bloodlines are humans?"

"Yes. ”

"But the Bloods are not human. ”

"Shall we open the door first? As he spoke, Andrew bit his finger and wiped the blood into the groove: "It's like this." I've tried it myself, and you won't suspect that I'm going to hurt you, will you?"

Jones hesitated, but finally did as Andrew said, biting his finger and rubbing the blood into the groove.

Suddenly, the whole stone gate began to shake.

Jones and Andrew stepped back and looked up.

A white light slowly flowed along the outline, and after a while, the stone door slowly opened, revealing a long passage.

It was pitch black in the passage, and nothing could be seen.

Well, this phrase is superfluous, it is pitch black everywhere here, except for Jones and Andrew lit the fire letter.

"Let's go in, we should be in place. Remember to control your mana fluctuations, preferably to the level of a human, or below. I don't want to get into unnecessary trouble. With that, Andrew stepped forward and walked in step by step with the hyacinth in his hand.

Jones, Turu, and Dora followed.

By the light of the hyacinth, Jones saw a lot of murals on the walls around him, one after the other.

Indispensable on every mural is a human being in a mage's robe. As for the regulars, they are angels and demons. Interspersed are a variety of other races, such as elves, dwarves, orcs, dragons, ......

Jones paused and took a closer look.

Andrew, who was walking in front, urged: "Hurry up, we're not here for an outing." Stay here a little longer, and the more dangerous it is. If there's anything you want to know, just ask me. If you look at it yourself, you can't figure it out in the first half of the year. ”

Jones hurriedly chased after him: "What did you mean when you just said that the blood clan is human?"

"Didn't you Blood Clan elders tell you?" Andrew asked rhetorically.

"What are they supposed to tell us?" Jones said, confused.

"The Bloodline is a human being. Haven't you ever wondered why a Bloodline can turn a human into a Bloodline, but not an elf, or any other species, and what is the relationship between the two species? It can't be a coincidence, right?"

"I don't understand what you're trying to say. ”

Looking at Jones's frightened and stunned look, Andrew sighed helplessly and said softly: "I want to say that the blood clan is changed by humans. It's not just you who have been bitten, it's all the bloods who have changed from humans to blood, including your Great Elder, who is the ancestor, who have also changed from humans. The Bloods are simply the remnants of Krimasha, and they are the failure of humanity to improve itself in Krimasha's time. ”

Jones froze, staring blankly at Andrew.

Dora's eyes widened slightly.

Looking at Jones, Andrew laughed slowly and smiled, "Is there anything else you want to ask?"

"You're lying to me. Jones said bluntly.

"Am I lying to you? ”

"A single failure is wrong. How is it that the Bloods are failures?" Jones asked, "The Bloodlines have an infinite lifespan, while humans have a short lifespan. The Bloodlines have stronger magical talents and stronger physiques than humans. Are these all failures?"

"Huh. Andrew smiled even more. He sighed as he continued along the long passage with the hyacinth in his hand, "You're right, the Bloods have an infinite lifespan, they have magical talents that are stronger than humans, and they have a stronger physique than humans, and that's all right. In fact, these were also the goals set by humanity in the time of Klimasha when they were transformed. They did it, which shows the strength of humanity in the time of Krimasha. They succeeded in creating a new species. It's not just a new species, it's a new species that can be transformed by humans. This means that it is actually an ability that can become stronger quickly. But ......"

"But what?" Jones hurriedly asked.

"But is it true that infinite lifespan, great magical talents, and a strong physique are the ultimate goals of humanity in the time of Krimatha? Andrew smiled and said, "Their ultimate goal is to completely get rid of their dependence on gods and demons. On the surface, it seems that infinite lifespan, powerful magical talents, and strong physique can achieve this goal. However, it is not. If you want to truly get rid of the control of gods and demons, the most direct thing is to be able to defeat them without relying on any party. Or you don't have to beat, at least you have to be able to tie and have reciprocal bargaining chips. Can the Bloodline?"

As he spoke, Andrew glanced back at Jones.

Jones looked at Andrew blankly, his brain was a little confused, and he didn't react for a while.

"The Bloodline can't. Andrew sighed, walked on, and continued, "To heaven, I don't need to say how lethal the holy art is to you, right? You are vulnerable to the forces of Heaven. To hell...... You have all the negativity in your veins. With a little traction from the demons, you can become extremely greedy and irritable. You don't have to go to war yet, you will have civil strife. Becoming a Bloodline not only enhances the abilities of humans, but also magnifies their weaknesses. Otherwise, why would the Bloods stay on the Collin Peninsula? Why would the Bloods give up the continent to the Humans? They even have the ability to turn humans into Bloods. Why do you want to drink human blood? Don't you just drink pig blood? As long as you can drink the blood of hot-blooded animals, why do you choose human blood, is it to show your own evil? Why should the blood people sink in pleasure? Because for for them, the wisest choice is to draw a line with human beings, and never arouse the enmity of angels and demons. Once caused, it is a dead end. ”

Jones's ears suddenly rang with the words of Elder Barsalomu: "Bloods cannot have faith. He stood there in a daze, and didn't recover for a long time.

"You should thank me. Andrew said leisurely, "If I hadn't told you this, maybe you would never have known." People in Krimatha's time didn't depict this kind of thing on the frescoes, and even if you looked through the place, you wouldn't find anything about the origin of the Bloodline. They are always looking for ways to reinvent themselves, and that's Krimasha's biggest secret. It is also the real reason for the demise of Krimasha. Both angels and demons developed a fear of the humans of Krimartha. After all, they're all already capable of creating blood, so who can guarantee that their next experiment won't be successful?"

Dora behind her was stunned when she heard this.

"Where did you hear that?" Jones asked in a low voice.

"Shenmu Library. In the Tertiary Age, the elves were closely related to humans, and there are many records of Krimasa in it. Although it is only a few words, it is enough to deduce the whole outline. Andrew held the hyacinth to the mural next to him, looked at it carefully, and said casually: "All along, both the wood elves and the blood elves have very much wanted the technology of the Krimatha era. Why? Because these two tribes were closest to Krimasha in the Third Age, and they knew deeply how terrible the knowledge of Krimasha's time was, and how many secrets the people of Krimasha's time hid. It's a pity that the gods and demons also know. It is impossible for them to tolerate the emergence of a race beyond themselves on the continent of Celtes. ”

"In that case, why didn't the gods and demons destroy the ruins?"

"You brought in a lich, didn't you?" asked Andrew, turning his face sideways.

"Yes, Aunt Lucy. ”

"Where is she now?"

"Forehead ......"

"She's also in an accident and this place is dangerous for her. In terms of strength, she is only strong but not weak compared to the vast majority of angels and demons. Moreover, the defenses of this place were originally against heaven and hell. For the holy arts of heaven and the black magic of hell, there will be extremely sensitive sensing. Do you believe that as long as an angel or demon enters here, all the tomb keepers will be activated in an instant? Heaven and hell are very fateful. They opened the ruins of Klima and fell into a trap and suffered heavy losses. After that, they gave up. Of course, the most important thing is that they believe that even if they get the secrets in the complete ruins of Krimasha, they have the power to contain them, as they once did. And on the continent of Celtes, it is almost impossible for a race to inherit the secrets of the ruins of Klima in its entirety. In this case, it would be a bit redundant for them to venture into the ruins of Krimasha. ”

"Yes...... I still can't understand it. If Krimatha can make enough to defend against angels and demons, how can they be contained?"

"Because what can defend against angels and demons does not mean that they can control themselves. It's like using forbidden art to summon extraterritorial gods, the opponent doesn't know if he dies or not, and even if he succeeds, the first one to die will definitely be himself. That's the same end. Being able to use it is not the same thing as being able to fully master it. As he spoke, Andrew stopped, raised the hyacinth in his hand and shone at another stone door in front of him, and whispered, "We have arrived." ”

Set a small goal first, such as remembering in 1 second: book guest residence
