-34- Sleep again

The golden-red flames continued to burn, and the wails of pain resounded through the palace.

In the flames, the blurred face continued to distort, and the expression that looked at Charlotte was full of resentment.

It stared at Charlotte with a grim gaze that seemed to draw Charlotte into the depths of its soul.

I saw it wailing and saying sadly:

"Don't think that's the end of it, you ...... You can't escape, you...... Can't escape! ”

"Night, I've remembered you, we...... I already remember you! ”

With that, I saw that the gray-white mist suddenly reversed, and a faint energy fluctuation invaded the flames, turning into an illusory trident mark, and spread rapidly towards Charlotte's arm along the cage condensed by the blood divine power.

"Oh? Is it? ”

Charlotte gave the other a faint look.

She stretched out her left hand, and the power of blood flowed again, and a thick illusory book slowly emerged.

The book was gently opened, emitting a crimson halo, and before the illusory trident mark could penetrate Charlotte's body, it was sucked by the book and instantly twisted into pieces.

"Fragments of the primordial! You...... You actually have the original shard!? ”

Looking at the illusory book that "devoured" the imprint in Charlotte's hand, jealousy, shock, and fear appeared on the illusory face.

With a soft sound like glass cracking, it collapsed into cloud-like fragments in the golden-red flames, and was finally "swallowed" by the illusory book in Charlotte's hand.

"The primordial ...... Fragments. ”

Charlotte thoughtfully, put away the embodied "Blood Sacred Text" in her hand.

After devouring the "blurred face", she could feel the blood holy book in the depths of her consciousness, and it seemed to be faintly more perfect.

With a light breath, Charlotte removed the empty cage of divine power.

All the divine power was absorbed into the body, and peace was restored inside the palace.

But Charlotte's mood was not at all calm:

"It has just seen the Blood Tome, and it calls the Blood Tome the Original Fragment...... So, the Blood Sacred Book is also part of the 'Primordial'? ”

"It tried to leave some kind of mark in me, but it failed, because the Blood Sacred Book consumed its power."

"Its power is very similar to the gray-white mist behind the strange stone gate, and it is ...... behind the stone gate. Is it all primordial power? ”

"And the mark it condensed...... The Trident, if I'm not mistaken, is the symbol of Aquaman Oceanus, but ...... The mark it condenses is the opposite of the Aquaman mark I see in the text. ”

"There's a little bit of an ocean in its power, but ...... It feels cloudy, or rather, chaotic. ”

"It says it's the god of the sea, isn't it...... Is it really Aquaman Oceanus? Merely...... Is it already contaminated? Or rather...... Crazy? ”

"And ...... It concludes by saying 'we'......"

"What does that mean exactly? Does it mean that it is just a wisp of the thousands of wisps of consciousness of 'Aquaman', or is it ...... Meaning more 'polluted' gods? ”

Charlotte muttered to herself, her brow furrowed.

Although she successfully solved the other party, her mood did not improve, on the contrary...... Instead, it became heavier.

"Something went wrong with Cauchy the Stargazer, something went wrong with Rowena, the true ancestor of blood Lilith was forgotten by all beings, and Lilith's brother Harald was left with the title of 'Creation God'......"

"Now, even the Sea King Oshennas, who was once as famous as the True Ancestor of Blood, is likely to have a problem."

"Is it possible...... The myths in this world, have problems? ”

"The words of 'Aquaman Oceanus' are not credible, but...... If it was to deceive me, then it could not be all false, and if it wasn't all false, how far was it from the truth? ”

"If the myths really have something wrong, sober ...... How many more? ”

"Advent Day...... Is it really just the gods who wake up? ”

The more Charlotte thought about it, the more she felt a little tingling in her scalp.

There are thousands of myths recorded in the Miriaa continent, and even today, there are countless well-known gods.

But since Charlotte became a demigod, any myths she's encountered turned out to be abnormal.

It's just once, and if it's like this every time, it's not her own problem.

Charlotte felt a hint of urgency.

Ever since becoming a demigod, she had once again felt that sword-of-Damocles urgency.

Being a myth doesn't mean sitting back and relaxing.

Forgotten myths, crazy gods, twisted history......

Obviously, some of the secrets left behind by the Age of Mythology are the real danger behind the world of Miria.

This prosperous world may seem normal, but I am afraid that there is an undercurrent in reality.

"Regardless of whether 'it' is a 'crazy' Sea King or not, since it is just sending a wisp of consciousness to investigate, it means that the other party has not been able to win my confidence."

"But in the same way, the other party dares to threaten so much before disappearing, which means that the other party's strength will definitely not be weaker than mine, and may even be stronger!"

"Fortunately, the Blood Sacred Book seems to have the power to suppress the opponent, and even the opponent's mark can be expelled."

"But...... It's not enough. ”

Thinking of this, Charlotte sank into her consciousness and once again sensed the Blood Sacred Text.

"Devouring" the consciousness of the "Sea King", this supreme artifact of the blood clan has indeed been perfected, and even directly added the innate magic of the dark path used to track and locate.

Of course, for Charlotte now, she will have enough talent magic.

One more is not much, and one less is not too much.

But that's not the point.

The divine fire that penetrated deep into her heart, Charlotte sensed her divine power.

Unlike every "devouring" in the past, this time although she eliminated the consciousness of the suspected Sea King Oshennas, and even the Blood Sacred Book faintly benefited, her divine power did not increase but fell.

Or more accurately, her divine power consumption is greater than divine power absorption.

Although it didn't consume much, it also gave Charlotte a wake-up call.

Her "devouring" does not always bring her a positive gain of divine power.

"It should be the price of destroying that 'consciousness', it seems...... Not everything can be transformed into divine power, and it will be even more difficult to erase the spiritual power at the mythical level. ”

"I've never been a godslayer in the true sense of the word, and even defeating the god of abomination and aberrations has only imprisoned him, perhaps...... The difficulty of killing gods is even higher than I thought. ”

Charlotte pondered.

"I ...... It's time to further strengthen yourself as soon as possible. ”

"Demigods are not enough, under the legend, as long as you are careful, it is already difficult for someone to threaten my life anymore, but above the legend is different......"

"What I'm going to have to face next is probably going to be those mythical forces behind the scenes."

"I have to be stronger, even if I can't become a real myth right away, I have to accumulate more divine power......"

Charlotte once again had the desire to get stronger quickly.

Of course, she also knows that the further she goes, the more difficult it will become.

Even with a plug-in like the Blood Codex, when Charlotte truly became a demigod, she clearly felt that the growth rate of her power began to slow down.

Charlotte also knew why, the energy intensity required to enhance the power of the myth was far beyond that of mortals, and the current Miria continent was in a period of magic slump, and it was difficult to find the corresponding energy.

And the shortcut she can think of is probably ...... The only way to go back in time is to find the wool of the old gods of Miria, who she had beaten.

"Deal with the many matters of the falling star as soon as possible, and then ...... Fall asleep early and go back in time to find strength. ”

Charlotte muttered to herself.

……

In the days that followed, Charlotte picked up her movements.

The situation in the Kingdom of the Falling Star is basically settled, and the main thing that remains is secondary internal conflicts, the most critical of which is to stabilize the turmoil caused by the fusion of the Bloodlines and the acceptance of immigrants from the Free Tribal Alliance.

As for how to stabilize the turmoil caused by the integration of the blood clan, Charlotte also thought very clearly, which was nothing more than to pacify and restrain the human nobles and blood clans.

The most effective and reliable thing that can bring everyone together in a short period of time is naturally profit, and Charlotte feels that she may be able to join the Ness clan and the Hortsosh clan and join the alchemy company she is preparing together.

This time, I really have to thank the Khortsosh clan, the 250 million quintana tribute is enough for her to attract all the forces within the kingdom and invest in development and construction.

Of course, the more detailed work, Charlotte directly threw it to the following to do.

She is not a master who likes to do everything herself, just grasp the general direction, give money to people, and leave the rest to professional people.

This is called knowing how to delegate power.

Of course, the reason why Charlotte dared to do this was also because she held the core power in her hands.

As a demigod walking the earth, no one in the kingdom of the falling stars can truly disobey her.

On the whole, although it is bumpy, it should not be difficult for the blood clan to integrate into the falling star society.

And half a month later, the first batch of immigrants from the Free Tribal Alliance also officially arrived in the northern part of Luoxing Island, with a total of 50,000 people.

Charlotte secretly followed the entire immigration process.

I have to say that Gale does have something, and the migration of tens of thousands of people is handled in an orderly manner, even in Charlotte's eyes, there is no big fault.

Of course, this is also Charlotte's enough money for immigration.

Once again, thanks to the Khortsosh clan for their contributions.

With the first resettlement, the rest is actually very easy to do, everything is difficult at the beginning, and many things only need to have the first time, and the repetitive task set template will be done.

Charlotte didn't plan to pay attention either, and the rest was enough for the Duke of Gael and the Night Order.

Of course, all of the above is an internal conflict.

Outside the falling star, the situation remains grim.

The Crescent Kingdom on the mainland is still eyeing the Duchy of Romance and the Castells, and the Luna Island in the North Sea has become the most dangerous place in Charlotte's heart at the moment.

Fortunately, the internal contradictions of the Crescent Kingdom have not been completely resolved, and according to intelligence, Charlotte learned that Louis V was still suppressing and uniting the forces of the nobility, and it seems that he has no plans to use troops against Roman and Castel.

But with Charlotte's understanding of the other party, she knew that the other party would definitely not give up, even if she had signed a mutual defense treaty with the North now.

Now the other party's calm is just a kind of forbearance.

There is no solution to this matter, unless Charlotte really gives up the territory on the mainland.

But she didn't intend to give up, the Principality of Romance was an important crop producer, and Castel was her treasury and hometown, as long as she wanted to develop, she must not lose it.

Charlotte probably only had to reject the nobles' idea of establishing a "United Kingdom of Falling Star-Castel", not to touch Louis V's nerves for the time being, and pretending that she was a vassal of the Crescent Moon and the king of the Falling Star, and that she could delay it for a day.

Of course, there should still be a few months of stability, and Charlotte estimates that she can still take the opportunity to sleep.

As long as she can further improve her strength after waking up, coupled with the various arrangements after she threw money, she should still be able to compete with the Crescent Moon Kingdom.

In fact, it was Luna Island that really gave Charlotte a headache.

But Charlotte didn't dare to investigate rashly.

She personally made an observation of Luna Island, and the results were not good.

Even her spiritual sense was faintly warning her that she must not go to Luna Island now.

If she didn't go there herself, she couldn't send someone, so Charlotte simply directly closed the northern border against Luna Island as the Queen of the Falling Stars.

Of course, this is not a long-term solution, even if the border is closed, as long as the "things" on the island want to come, Charlotte will not be able to stop it.

Charlotte just wanted to drag it out, relying on the other party's jealousy of her, until she could "wake up".

By the time Charlotte had everything in order, it was almost a month later.

After explaining her slumber to Sebas, Nice, Jurst, Bardock, and Margot, Charlotte once again lay down in the black coffin that Sebas had prepared for her.
