100. The past

The woman looked at Easter, who still had a little childishness on her face, and Valentina, who seemed to be grinning, and she could see at a glance that these were two good girls who had never been touched by a man. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

She pondered for a moment, using a question as the beginning of her story.

"Two young ladies. I wonder if you know anything about the inheritance of the nobles?"

Cold, cold, cold.

The woman suddenly found that her problem was a little silly. One of these two girls is a legendary powerhouse now, and the other is a legendary powerhouse in the future, and they are both so young, how can they think about the issue of heirs!

She coughed to cover her mistake and continued: "According to the inheritance law of the Kingdom of Coronia, every nobleman, only the eldest son has the right to inherit, and the rest of the sons can only get an ordinary knighthood. (Coronia only has the titles of uncle, marquis, and duke) without a son, he will choose a daughter not to marry, and recruit to maintain the family.

The previous Duke of Pervas had a total of eight sons and seven daughters. But only two boys and seven girls grew up healthy. ”

"How is this possible!" Esther first felt that something was wrong. Coronia has a very low infant and child mortality rate. It is said that it is because food provides a large amount of beneficial substances. This is also the reason why Colognia has been able to maintain population growth, despite the continuous loss of a large number of people during the frontier development.

"It's impossible. How could it be that none of the girls died!" Valentina also asked. Growing up in the frozen land, she is used to seeing young children die, but she has never heard of such a thing as only a boy and a girl.

"Yes, how could this be!" the woman smiled wryly. "But it's true. The other six boys all died in various accidents. Such as accidental injuries during hunting, food poisoning, drowning, etc. ”

"Are they all murderous?"

"It's too old. I don't know. After all, the youngest of the boys was much older than me. ”

The woman seemed reluctant to talk about the cause of the children's death. Maybe it's also the contribution of her parents.

"One of the two boys who grew up in the end, my father chose to follow and support him as the next Duke of Pervas. ”

"Wait a minute. Doesn't it mean that the eldest son inherits? Esther interrupted the woman again. He really didn't understand what these people were doing.

"You don't understand that!" Valentina knew better. "The two boys are vying for the position of chieftain, and of course there is going to be a duel. She waved her clenched fist, as if she had seen a fierce duel between the two boys.

"That's right. Miss Valentina was right. The two had a duel. It's a pity that it's not that kind of duel in the ring, but a duel of all kinds of intrigues. ”

Mora Gault's mouth was a little dry, she lowered her head and took a sip of her drink, and continued.

"At the time, I was a trump card on my father's side. I was only twenty years old, but I was already a powerful Arcane Knight. ”

"Wait! Arcane Knights! Mora Gott, you are the Crimson Cloud, Maura Gott!" Valentina shouted suddenly. She jumped up in surprise and hit her head on the top of the cave.

Esther looked at Valentina in a daze. She hit her head all over the dirt, but she didn't seem to care.

"Aren't you dead? Twelve years ago, you died. It is said that he died of a spell backlash. Valentina shouted as she pointed at Mora Gott. The entire cave buzzed with her voice.

"Death by spell backlash? Sometimes, I really wish I had died twelve years ago. Mora Gott laughed to himself.

"I've been living in secret, but I still can't get revenge. It's a great shame. ”

"Could it be that you have spent the past twelve years in the hands of the Green Cross cultists!" Esther suddenly thought of a possibility and asked in surprise.

"That's right. I have lived in their hands for twelve years. ”

"You're a legendary powerhouse!" Valentina shouted loudly. "You are Mora Gott of the Crimson Cloud, a legendary Arcane Knight before the age of twenty. How could you possibly fall into the hands of those worm-like cultists!"

Esther was utterly shocked. Valentina was right. For the legendary powerhouse, the Green Cross cultists here are simply like chickens and dogs. Even against him and Sonya, they could effortlessly clean up hundreds. How could a legendary powerhouse suffer twelve years of humiliation at their hands!

Mora Gott's tone remained calm. It's as if we're talking about something that happened to other people.

"Indeed, I am a legend. But the legendary man can't resist the dagger from behind. I was deceived by my closest friends. Have you ever heard of Black Tea for the Undead?"

Esther and Valentina shook their heads at the same time, this kind of thing was obviously extremely rare, they had never heard of it at all.

"I haven't heard of it either. But I drank the undead black tea directly. This tea is a precious specialty of the Dead Bone Plane. There is a lot of negative energy in it. In the Plane of Bones, only the most powerful undead monarchs are eligible to drink. This drink is a treasure that can increase the strength of the undead, but the most terrifying thing for the living is that it is highly poisonous. ”

As he spoke, Maura Gott pointed to his face. It was a mature and beautiful face in his thirties, and there were already faint fine lines at the corners of his eyes.

"It is said that legends are not old, but I seem to be twenty years old. This is the effect of the undead black tea, the most terrifying thing is that my body has been eroded by negative energy, and I have experienced rapid aging, and my professional level has also been lost. I lost eighteen class levels at once, at least eighteen strength, eighteen agility, and eighteen constitution. ”

The severity of this loss of rank and basic attributes frightened both Esther and Valentina. They looked at Mora Gott, who still looked very energetic in front of them, and estimated in their hearts that her original three basic attributes should be around thirty.

"After I lost my rank, my clan was violently attacked. I can't protect myself, so I can only hide in Tibet. In the end, it actually fell into the hands of the Green Cross cultists who came to the ground to plunder. ”

At this, Maura Gault smiled wryly.

"Although I have suffered a lot of torture at the hands of these cultists, my legendary constitution has allowed me to survive these tortures tenaciously. And because I don't look old, I haven't been eliminated. My appearance has made me suffer a lot, but it has also given me some preferential treatment. Some cultists even know me because I've lived here for so long. When they were on me, they often talked to me about other topics. This time, I also knew early on that the Green Cross cult was facing a massive offensive. I just didn't expect to be rescued so quickly. ”

"What are your plans for the rest of your life?" Esther couldn't think of how a once legendary powerhouse would live in the future.

"Stay alive. At least not shorter than that bastard Juniels Pervas. Speaking of this, Mora Gault hesitated for a moment and asked Valentina, "Can the Eldest Princess Guard temporarily contain me?" Although I don't have the strength of a legend, I still have the knowledge of a legend, and I will repay you." ”

"It's not a problem. I think Her Royal Highness the eldest princess will also want to see you. But why don't you want to find a way to regain your strength?" Valentina agreed to Mora Gort's request. After all, before Mora Galter was the eldest princess, Colombo's brightest star, and the eldest princess's childhood was spent listening to Maura Gott's growth story.

"Restore strength. How easy it is to say!" Mora Gott was a little discouraged. "If I had just drunk the Black Tea of the Dead and used a powerful positive energy treatment, I would still have a chance to recover. But now, twelve years later, those negative energies have long since merged with my body. If you treat me with positive energy now, I'm afraid that before the negative energy is expelled, I will already die. ”

"Is there any other treatment than countervailing treatment with positive energy?" East thinks that negative energy is just that, there should be many treatments.

Valentina shook her head and said, "This kind of negative energy, which has been completely entangled with itself for a long time, is the most difficult to treat. That requires a long and expensive treatment process. Moreover, there is no guarantee of cure. Of the known methods, the most effective is rehabilitation. But this spell used to be very common. But more often than not, it appears as a god-given spell. Since the Battle of the Gods, there have been few new Restoration Scrolls. Because Coronia is extremely rich in positive energy, it only needs to use positive energy crystals to resist the erosion of negative energy. Therefore there is no urgent need. So we don't have a recovery scroll in our hands. If you want to find it, the fastest way is to go to the Void and buy it through the Void Ship Fair. However, it is not certain that it will be available immediately, and it is necessary to send out a request for purchase. ”

"That's it. Alas!" Esther scratched his head. He felt some itching on his scalp. He also has a way to deal with the current situation. Who called it the "War of the Gods" pulled all the known gods off the throne. Now, even if there are gods in the multiverse, they don't know where to hide in the middle of nowhere.

"Didn't the alchemists think of making potions instead of restoration?" Easter thought, with the alchemists' personalities, it was impossible not to create a substitute for restoration.

"Nope. Valentina replied. "Because negative energy is not a difficult energy to deal with. There are many spells to protect against negative energy, and the technology to treat the erosion of negative energy is also very mature. A rare negative energy carrier like the Undead Black Tea would not flow out of the Dead Bone Plane at all under normal circumstances. ”

"Yes!" said Mora Gott. "If it weren't for the high-end negative energy erosion like the undead black tea. I myself was able to resist ordinary negative energy. Come to think of it, that old bastard in Juniels must have had a lot of effort to get the Black Tea of the Undead!"

"But when it comes to alchemical elixirs, I do know of an elixir that can drive away all negative energy. Do you know about the recovery potion? This thing, the Alchemist Guild should be making it!"
