The people of the long-suppressed capital spontaneously held a grand rally, Rocco directly asked the knight to pull out large barrels of fresh yellow beer from the tavern to cheer up, this generous gesture won the favor of everyone, many girls danced beside him, little Gust was nowhere to be found, as the red man in front of the king, Rocco became the favorite son-in-law of many women.

The enthusiasm did not subside until midnight, and people lit fires to bake food. Lin Yanxiao asked people to advance a lot of gold coins from the Gust family to buy food, and people raised their wine glasses to praise this "selfless" mage.

Everyone was intoxicated by the beautiful summer night, Lin Yanxiao avoided everyone's attention and walked into the palace alone. The guards at the palace were looser than usual, and it seemed that many knights did not want to give up the party.

Lin Yanxiao walked to the place agreed with Keska, and when he looked up, he saw a back figure wearing a black cloak that blended with the night.

"What a good night, Your Excellency. Casca tilted his face slightly, revealing his red lips and white chin. The brilliant lights in the distance seem to be another world, and the noisy sounds become part of the background.

What do you want to do?】

Lin Yan asked with a smile, he noticed that Caska's cloak was bulging, and it looked like she was holding something.

"You'll know in a moment, now please follow me. Keska bowed his head slightly, and was the first to descend the stairs beside him. Lin Yanxiao glanced at the cold surroundings and followed her away.

"How did you get out, shouldn't you stay in the room honestly and reflect now?" Lin Yan asked with a smile.

"Your Excellency, I never felt that I had made any mistakes. Keska said in a soft voice.

Lin Yanxiao sneered, "Your father has a girl like you, and he has also poured blood mold for eight lifetimes." ”

Keska smiled, ignoring Lin Yanxiao's ridicule. Lin Yanxiao felt that he was the one who was making trouble, he shook his head, and walked with her silently, so as not to attract the patrolling knights.

Keska took Lin Yanxiao into a secret passage. The secret passage is located beneath the palace, where it is cold and damp, and rats roam it. Lin Yanxiao's eyes were not affected by the darkness, but Keska was still an ordinary person, she asked Lin Yanxiao to light the torch, Lin Yanxiao did so, and then Lin Yanxiao saw what she had been holding in her arms - it was a child, Lin Yanxiao had seen it today, he had short hair of the same color as his mother, and his round face and eyes were closed.

"This is your son, what are you stealing your son for?" Lin Yanxiao used the word "steal", the king would definitely not let Keska, who had not yet cleared his suspicion, continue to take care of his only son.

"I'm his mother, and I have the right to let him do something 'small' for me. Keska didn't want to talk more, she walked in front with the child in one hand and the torch in the other, looking at the child's face, Lin Yanxiao took the torch to light the way forward for her.

"What a gentleman you are. Keska quipped.

Keska had lived in the palace for several years, and she knew everything about it, and the road was unobstructed, and after about half an hour, a closed iron door finally appeared in front of the two of them. Outside the iron gate, the grass is overgrown, and it looks like this secret passage leads down the palace to the wilderness.

The two-year-old child weighed a lot, and Kester walked all the way out of breath, but she refused Lin Yanxiao's kindness to share it for her.

"I don't think I'm a weak woman who can open this door, Your Excellency?" Keska looked at Lin Yan and smiled.

Lin Yanxiao stepped forward and pulled out his white and flawless bones.

"Heavy hit. ”

"Smack-" The rusty lock fell to the ground, Lin Yanxiao calmly put the bones back, Keska exclaimed, and said, "You are really a 'strong' man." ”

Lin Yanxiao pushed open the door and let Keska lead the way in front. The road is full of rocks, and there are unknown weeds and vines, and several times I will trip the head of the dog in charge of walking. Lin Yanxiao wanted to remember the way he came, but the wilderness was the same scenery over and over again, even if Lin Yanxiao couldn't remember it, he couldn't find the direction he came from.

The two of them walked for about fifteen minutes, and the path gradually descended, and at that moment, a crack suddenly appeared in the ground, like a hideous wound.

"Where is your end?" Lin Yanxiao held the torch and looked down, the valley bottom was very deep, and the light of the torch could only illuminate the vicinity of the crack, but there was an artificially dug staircase, but the staircase was very narrow, less than a palm's width.

Lin Yanxiao went down the stairs, this steep staircase was no pressure on him, after all, it was not him who walked, and the weight of the skeleton was low, and he didn't feel pain yet, not to mention that Lin Yanxiao had a high physique, so there was no problem at all when he fell from here.

Keska finally allowed Lin Yanxiao to hug Allen, the poor two-year-old child was probably scared by his mother, and there was no reaction at all along the way.

The depths of the valley were full of stones, and a half-man-high hole was like a monster with a wide mouth waiting for people to enter his esophagus. Lin Yanxiao felt uneasy and followed Keska into the cave.

The light of the torches filled the narrow passageway, and the further they went, the wider and brighter the passage, until at last they came to the end, a circular hall. It was like the belly of a mountain, but there was a circular opening in the top of the head, through which the bright moonlight illuminated the inside, and Keska stood in the middle of the moonlight with Alan in his arms, looking a little holy.

【What do you want to do?】

Lin Yanxiao's heart became more and more strange, the cave was empty, there was nothing, and he even felt the dark element around him, which was lower than other places usually.

Keska ignored Lin Yanxiao, she carefully placed Alan on the ground, and let him clasp his hands on his chest. Keska looked at her son with loving eyes, and she stretched out her fingers, which were almost transparent in the moonlight, and rubbed them lightly against his face.

Lin Yanxiao looked at her vigilantly until Keska stood up and whispered, "When I was a child, I never liked to play with children my age, and I spent my days following those wandering dark elements to see where it was going. ”

"Until one day, the maid in the house was lazy, and I ran away from the house and finally found this place. Here, I met a person, a handsome man......" Keska's tone made Lin Yanxiao wonder, could it be that she was empathetic and don't fall in love?

"He told me a way, a way for me to never be separated from the dark element. Caska's next words negated Lin Yanxiao's speculation. "There are so few dark elements in this world, I fear it every day, for fear that it will die out completely, but as long as I do what that man says, I don't have to worry about it anymore!"

Lin Yanxiao's uneasiness came true, and he hurriedly asked, "What method?"

Keska let out a loud laugh from her mouth, her smile has always been gentle, even if she doesn't speak, her face is a gentle smile, but at this moment, her eyes are dyed with crazy color, and her whole body trembles with excitement, "This is a sealed dark gap, as long as I unlock it, a steady stream of dark elements will come to me through this tunnel!"

"You're crazy!" Lin Yan's eyes widened with a smile, and he said in disbelief, "Don't forget your identity, you are still a human being, if you open this seal, it will not only be the dark elements that will come to this world, but also the demons who are ready to move!"

Keska sneered and said loudly: "What does that have to do with me, I don't care if a human being lives or dies, as long as it's by my side." Her cheeks turned red with excitement, and she asked, "Don't you want to increase your strength, as long as you have the dark element, you can control an army of necromancy, and when the time comes, who will doubt you because of your appearance?" ”

"You're a skeleton after all, and even if you use the Light as an excuse and many people doubt your motives, you might as well go to the dark camp. ”

Lin Yanxiao said coldly: "My position has never changed, if you don't bring me here today, maybe your plan will come true, but with me, I will never allow you to lift the seal of the dark gap." ”

"It seems that I can't impress you at all......," Keska sighed, and said leisurely, "but you want to be stubborn, and even if I bring you here, you won't succeed in stopping me." ”

With that, Keska lowered his body, and the silver light in his hand flashed, and red blood immediately flowed down Allen's arm. All this happened in the blink of an eye, Lin Yanxiao never expected that she would really attack her own flesh and blood, and before she had time to think about it, a holy word technique fell on Allen.

"It's useless, just a drop of blood—a drop!"

Keska opened her arms, and the wind blowing from nowhere stirred her robe, the wind was getting stronger and stronger, Lin Yanxiao took advantage of Keska's madness, and hurriedly took Alan out. His holy word technique had just worked, and the child was breathing steadily, with only the clothes on his arms open, and the rest of the world intact.

Kessa stood in the moonlight, and a tornado appeared around her, rattling her robe, and a silver light like lightning swam in the wind, as if ready to split something.

"To open this passage, you need the blood of Doyle's direct royal family, in the beginning, the king of Doyle was also a great light mage, but now this - just a waste. ”

[It's really hard for you to give birth to a son for waste. 】

Lin Yan laughed and mocked. Keska didn't seem to be affected by the wind at all, she walked over, stroked Lin Yanxiao's face, and said in an affectionate tone: "You are really hard-mouthed, this is just part of my plan, and thank you to my father, he just helped me a lot." ”

Lin Yanxiao sneered, touched the bones, and smashed a heavy blow at Keska!

"Bang-"

There was an invisible film between the bones of Keska and Lin Yanxiao, and no matter how hard Lin Yanxiao tried, he couldn't break the barrier between them.

"It's useless, Eren is just a key, and I'm the real sacrifice. ”

Keska stepped back, her arms outstretched, and she stepped into the wind. With long hair flying, the woman, who had faces that had made countless young girls jealous, turned around and chanted loudly: "When it's time to leave, you must go."

No one will stop you, only your heart needs to be firm.

What kind of unquenchable fire is shining in your eyes?

What kind of incessant heat is running in your blood?

What is the calling that urges you in the darkness?

Don't slow down, it's a sign that everything is beginning.

Come, my revered faith, I give everything to you.

My blood, my bones.

My spirit, my soul.

Thousands of people who worship me!

......”

This is a poem that the necromancer once recited, and Lin Yanxiao finally knew what it did. Keska pulled out the knife from her previous one, which still had her loved one's blood on it.

Without hesitation, she made a hole in her hand, and then slid it on her arm until her arm was so bloody that she couldn't even lift it.

"I don't want to do that, you forced me, if you promise me to teach me dark spells or you don't show up at all, maybe I'll never open this seal. Keska had an innocent smile on his face and a sparkle in his eyes.

"I shouldn't be soft-hearted. Lin Yanxiao looked at her coldly and said.

The red blood fell down without money, and the moment it landed, it seemed to become some kind of corrosiveness, and there was a "zig" sound, and a black, rich dark element flowed out of the blood, flowing in the direction of Keska.

"Yes, that's it...... I want more—more!"

"I'll grant your wish. A man's voice came from the darkness, his voice was like a kitsch, making people's hearts numb, "Sure enough, it didn't make me wait long, my lovely little girl." ”

A black shadow appeared suddenly, and as soon as he raised his hand, the direction of the wind around him had never disappeared like before, and Keska was bleeding so much that she turned pale and fell to her knees.

"It takes a little bit more to hold on to my lovely girl. A large black hand appeared, and it pressed against Keska's injured arm, and more blood rushed out.

Lin Yanxiao saw that the rich dark elements formed a gate, and the wind and clouds inside the door were chaotic. The man stood inside the door, he had a handsome face, black hair and red eyes, a pale complexion, and a powerful presence.

"Demons. The moment he appeared, Lin Yanxiao knew his identity, and Lin Yanxiao could feel his coercion. This is a demon clan that is at least two levels higher than him, Lin Yanxiao can't beat him at all! What makes him even more helpless is that from the beginning, Lin Yanxiao couldn't stop this ritual.

"There's a lot of fresh blood out there, if only you can get me the dark elemental ......," Keska said weakly.

"I'm not one of those low-class cannibals, and as for your wishes, I will definitely let you make them happen. ”

Keska fainted with satisfaction, but her blood was still flowing out, and Lin Yan smiled and said that she would just let her die like this. However, the demon didn't want her to die like this, he popped a black mist from his fingertips, causing her to land on Keska, and Keska's original weak breathing resumed. Half of this demon has stepped out of the chaos, and the other half is still in the other world.

[Demons, go back to your darkness. 】

Lin Yanxiao raised the skeleton in his hand and looked at him fearlessly.

The demon man finally found that there was still a life here, he glanced at Lin Yanxiao with interest, and said in surprise: "One...... Skeletons?"
