Chapter 60: The Awakening Controversy
Ji Yijun pushed open a crack in the door and found that the entrance was a hallway, and there were no two people inside, so he opened the door and walked in.
"Huh?" Ji Yijun looked at the zenith in shock after entering the door. From the outside, the two-story house feels like it's four or five stories high. This makes the entrance extremely large and makes people feel like they are in the middle of a large hall.
"This must be the lost space magic of the Star Tower. Morey sighed softly, "In our time, being able to make space bags is already a master." ”
The interior of this house is both simple and luxurious. The ceiling of the entrance is entirely a collage of glowing 'mosaics' of starry sky, and the stars in the starry sky emit a soft glow, giving the whole room a long-lasting atmosphere. On the surrounding walls hang more than a dozen portraits, some of them wearing robes, some of them wearing regular clothes, perhaps the owner of the house and their relatives and friends.
The door from the entrance to the main hall was ajar, and the group followed the voices of the two men inside, through the two halls, to the door of a room that could be a laboratory, and they finally heard what was being said inside.
“...... It's too dangerous. Brother. How do you know what will go wrong when you wake him up? Although he is our ancestor, he is not a good person in any sense! A saint-level mage, no matter what such a person does, we have no room for resistance, right? Haven't you heard the story of a mage who uses his soul to take someone else's body?"
"You don't understand! It's about our family legacy. We've searched the whole house, but we can't find the two books! I'm sure they must have been in Emperor Rick's storage ring. We must open the ice coffin to confirm this. Perhaps, maybe open the ice coffin and he will be dead. Adan said.
"What the hell is a book, you still haven't told me!" shouted Ora.
A long silence ensued, and the two men were at a stalemate for a long time, and Adan finally said, "That's ...... Two copies of the Seven Holy Pagodas!"
"What, Holy Scriptures, Seven Holy Pagodas, how much else are you hiding from me. Why didn't I ever know that?"
"Ora, you are my sister, and since my father's death, I have watched you grow up in his place. These things...... I really don't want you to get involved in these things. ”
"But didn't you still bring me here, but you kept it a secret from me all the way here, and you deceived Your Excellency Luo Ling and them. How will you explain it to them then!"
"Listen! I can talk about this later, I can explain it slowly, but first and foremost, find the book. Otherwise everything will be in vain. ”
"What the hell are these two books? You have to make it clear, or I won't let you open the ice coffin. ”
"Okay, one is the Forge Tower's Soul Magic Book, and the other is the Star Tower's Secret Index," Adan whispered, "Aren't you wondering, why did the royal family of the Black Dragon Empire, which started by force, become a golem after a few hundred years of existence? It is because of this ruin, it is because of these two books. ”
"Do you know how those golems are given souls to fight on their own? ”
"Oh my God, do you still want to do something like extracting dwarven souls?"
"It doesn't have to be a dwarf, maybe an animal or something, or some dying person, like the magicians do now. The point is, we can do it too!"
"But the Black Dragon Empire also has these, and in the end they were defeated. ”
"It was different, the rebels had elves and sea tribes to help, and unhappy peasants joined their ranks. But today, where did they have any allies, and the object of dissatisfaction of all the peasants was themselves!
Unlike us, we can contact the Purple Eagle Empire in the north, the free city-states in the south, and even the elves who always have a lot of opinions about humans. And then there are the disgruntled aristocrats, there will always be some careerists in any era who are ready to move.
Now all the situation can be reversed, they have changed from hunters to prey, and if we have enough strength, we can join the hunt. ”
"Brother......
"And do you think there is any hope that we will wait any longer, and how many of those people in the camp still have hope for a recovery?"
"But those uncles and uncles are all loyal. ”
Of course, they are loyal in profitable things, but when they are asked to give up some of the things they hold in their hands and pursue more long-term things, they all become obsessed!
Some people want to wash their identity and become a little nobleman, and some people want to simply become a horse thief and grab a good time. There are still people who have the idea of selling us for credit, you know?"
"Huh?
"How do you think that old Johnson thing died last year? What kind of horse stumbling? It was me and Matthew who chased him for two days and two nights, and beheaded him outside Marca. ”
"How so!"
"Ora, you are my princess. I really don't want you to worry about these things, but we're in a much worse situation than you think.
You know why I only brought Matthew and the two of them, because I don't have a few people I can trust! If you think about it, we've fallen to the point where we can't even get a mage out of it, and we have to turn to these unknown people for help.
This time, I came here looking for opportunities to change, and I didn't tell you a lot of things, and I was worried that you would leak out. These things are so eye-catching. ”
"I, I don't know, I don't know what to do......"
"Just let me come, now you get out of the way, I'll open the ice coffin. ”
Ji Yijun outside was about to rush in when she heard this, but was stopped by Luo Ling, she moved her lips and said silently: Wait.
Sure enough, after more than ten seconds, Ola spoke again: "But you're not even a mage. Can what you're doing really change anything?"
Adan was silent for a while, and then said slowly, "Do you think that the emperors of the Black Dragon Empire in the past generations have all cultivated to the Holy Rank?"
"What do you mean?"
"The bloodline of our Black Dragon Empire's royal family is very special, when our family and the queen clan are combined, the offspring born have a certain chance to awaken an extremely rare bloodline - devouring bloodline. Under certain conditions, we can devour the entire spiritual power of a person and become a part of ourselves. And the more people are close to each other, the more likely they are. You haven't awakened this bloodline, but I've awakened and devoured the bloodline!"
"You, you actually want to devour the power of Emperor Rick!"
"That's right, he also devoured his father's power, just like at the beginning, the ancestor who discovered this place accidentally awakened his bloodline and devoured the power of a saint-level mage who was struggling in the ice coffin, and only then did he start our family's magic inheritance, which is our family's fate. ”
