Chapter 399: Demon Tide Theory
It turned out that the rumors about the pearl crab were false information, and Lin Qiu had never seen the shadow of any other monster since he encountered an innocent shell crab. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info But it doesn't matter, Rose and Anna are contented children, and they are smiling and playing with the shell crabs, completely forgetting about the pearl crabs.
And Leah, who always tries to keep herself as serious as possible, is also infected by two of her peers and participates in their training program about shell crabs.
The nobles of the court would be stunned to see their empress playing with a shell crab, and even her luxurious costume covered with sand.
A few people were not far from Lin Qiu, and there was Lilith next to them to take care of them, so Lin Qiu didn't go over again. The rare leisure time suddenly reminded him of another question, so he asked Helena without thinking, "By the way, what is the reason why you are here? Could it be that it is also for the desire for the Sith?"
"Unfortunately, I guessed wrong. Helena shook her head, she felt that not only had she not done anything serious lately, but she was about to become the personal nanny of those little girls. If it weren't for the fact that she valued the alliance with Lin Qiu and Lilith very much, she wouldn't have bothered to take care of Rose and Rose.
Helena has lived through many joys and sorrows, and she cares neither for the change of power in a small country, nor for the palace intrigues and the assassins lurking in the shadows.
"Tyr, I'm guessing you've never seen a real demon tide yet. Helena looked at the calm sea, as if something was hidden in the depths of this vast sea: "But I guess your little lover must have seen it." ”
Alyssa was a little unhappy with the title "Little Lover", but she still nodded. Anyone who has seen the demon tide descend, even if they can get away with it, the overwhelming monsters will cause indelible wounds to their hearts, even high-ranking knights are often not immune.
"About a month after the war, I saw it once near the Fourth Kingdom. Alyssa recalled that she had encountered a demon tide once in her life, and the monsters that had sprung up had almost leveled half of the Fourth Kingdom.
"To be precise, what you encountered was not the whole body of the Demon Tide, but the secondary rift formed by the unstable seal. Helena explained with great interest, "But even if you encounter a rift in time and space that has been weakened several times over, you are the only knight who fought alongside you at that time who can maintain consciousness. ”
"This is impossible, we went back to the imperial capital together, and they only suffered some minor injuries. Alyssa retorted firmly, and another reason she retorted to Helena was, "Three of those men are knights of the Inquisition. ”
Helena glanced at Alyssa lightly, and said lightly: "The fastest is a week later, as for the three knights of the Inquisition Army after three years - they are indeed excellent knights. ”
"What's wrong with them?" Helena's conversation with Alyssa successfully made Lin Qiu's head full of question marks.
"Subdemonized, and without warning. ”
After St. Gosya's improvement of the way the seals were made, the word subdemonization became a historical term for a long time, and in modern times, no one had ever heard of a high-ranking knight suddenly going berserk. And this matter involved three high-ranking knights in the Inquisition, and the Senate and the Church tacitly blocked the news.
"So it's normal that you don't know, the Inquisitor's main job at the moment is to patrol the world in case the tide of demons descends again. Do you know how much panic it would cause if they knew that the tide would cause the imprints in their bodies to run wild?"
"Then why am I okay?" said Alyssa, who disagreed, with Helena: "The longest cycle is three years, maybe something else." ”
"That's what I want to figure out. ”
Lin Qiu suddenly had a bad premonition: "Here?"
Helena looked at him with a smile: "You really should listen to the history class of the Wind Furnace Academy, although that old man is verbose, but his knowledge is still quite broad...... The concept of the so-called Demon Tide can be traced back to the time of Akalando, and some of the masters of Monsterology, including me, believe that the rift, which later generations called the "Eye of the Abyss", is one of the forms of the Demon Tide. And I'm used to calling it the highest form of the Magic Tide. However, after the migration of the people of Akarandu to the Empire of Horutia and Byron, the tide did not stop, and during the reign of King Az-Tris, the world was threatened by sudden rifts, the most famous of which occurred in the North, where the Winter Dragon Hero joined forces with the human king to seal the rift over the North. ”
"Of course, the next thing is not something that the monster scientists can't tell you - what is the true face of the demon tide? people only know that the demon tide is because a crack in the space has opened and released those vicious monsters from it, and no one knows where that number of monsters came from. Based on my long research, I found that the eight Primordial Monsters at the end of Akarando were not 'summoned' by Gruea, but that she had overlapped two unrelated worlds through some kind of spell. ”
"Hallucinatory space?" Lin Qiu almost subconsciously remembered the Calamity Moon, it was indeed a completely different world, and even the imperial capital at the center of the Helutia civilization was now shrouded in countless monsters.
"Yes, I don't know how you ended up in that world, but it wasn't an 'illusionary world', but a real world. ”
"In this way, the real meaning of the mark of the 'hallucination system' is actually ...... Gives humans the ability to communicate with that world?"
"Clever, worthy of my fancy ally. Helena did not hesitate to praise: "But it was just a small episode." The important thing is that the magic tide does not come out of nowhere, and the cracks will produce many signs before they appear, and in the past hundred years, I have studied all the known magic tides and completed a complete set of summaries. ”
"And I'm sure that this time the Demon Tide appeared at the end of this sea. ”
......
"Ahh The one who screamed was Anna, who was the least daring, and the shell crab, who was familiar with them, waved its pincers vigilantly in front of Leah and the others.
When the rickety man struggled to get to Leah, he finally collapsed from exhaustion.
What surprised Lin Qiu the most was that this man covered in blood was wearing the uniform of the captain of the kingdom army.
"What about people?"
"I saw him running to the beach!"
"Chase after him, don't let him run!"
A few seconds later, the sound was heard in the distance.
