-254- Prince Edward
After another month and eight days, the Imperial Army finally retreated for various reasons.
Whether it is domestic public opinion or material reserves, the army's war-weariness has reached the verge of collapse, and if it doesn't leave, the entire imperial army will be buried for it, for Yin Rena alone, so many vain sacrifices don't seem to be worth it.
This news reached Yin Rena's ears from the mouth of Augustus, who came to "visit".
It was like bad news, the Imperial army had retreated, the Bloodline's external troubles would be over for the time being, and soon, she would be transferred to the castle, and there would be no external factors to help her escape from prison, just like here.
With Augustus gone, Yin Rena's spirit was finally on the verge of collapse, and she no longer carved the traces of the past days, numbly picking up the dirty food that fell every day...... Who would dare to imagine that she would be in this situation when she was once like a fairy.
Did she bring it on herself? Apparently not.
Or maybe it is.
As long as she's on the spurt from the start...... From the time the Yord church received Miss Olivia, everything would not have developed to this point, she was still the same as Yin Rena Kaslana before, ugly and unstoppable, but she could live an ordinary and ordinary life.
And then......
She didn't want to continue imagining, even that life was too good, and too good imagination was poison for her now.
Two days later, Augustus came over again and told Yin Rena that she would be able to leave this ghost place tomorrow and embrace civilized life again.
"Civilized life? Hahahahaha......" she laughed presumptuously and a little maniacally, "I think this place is better than the civilized life you say, at least I don't have to be on the operating table like a guinea pig for you to study!" ”
She'd forgotten that the researchers had all been replaced by her own people.
Memories are consumed in continuous incarceration.
"Here I can move around freely! You can eat food anytime! Hehe, and a whole bunch of small animals to keep you company......"
Augustus finally looked down at the unkempt and embarrassed woman under his eyes, and turned to the guard: "She has gone mad, tell the council that I propose to perform an autopsy after the researchers have finally evaluated the physical condition of Number 1, who knows if that particular blood core will cause irreversible damage due to the owner's mental madness?" ”
After saying that, he walked away, and Yin Rena stopped screaming when she heard the sound of horses' hooves, and returned to the small corner where he had been for an unknown number of months, squatting down weakly, and crying for the first time with a headache...... Instead of crying, we sobbed......
How could she not hear Augustus's voice, death had stretched out its scythe and was hanging around her neck, but was there still hope now? Gone...... With all of them, she had to wait for herself to get on the operating table, then be divided into pieces and put into a can of formalin, labeled with an organ, and dated it......
Maybe it will be put in a museum for future generations to be visited?
The world was just beginning to show a big side to her, there were so many places she hadn't set foot before, so many anecdotes still in legends waiting to be explored...... She's going to die like this? Maybe the news of her death will make many people feel sorry, but time will rush everything, she knows very well that her current self will eventually be forgotten, and the only thing that remembers her is the annals of history.
At that moment, a lot of ...... flashed through her mind There are old people, hometowns, friends, and unfinished business......
"I really...... Don't want to die yet! ”
And at this moment, an abrupt and long-lost voice sounded in Yin Leina's brain:
[Ding~ Please note that the capacity of the theme ball is almost full, please open the ball in time to make more space. 】
Yin Rena just laughed miserably after hearing this:
"What's the use of having so many orbs if you're going to die? It's all open at once, just have fun. ”
[Ding~ is being opened for you, due to the large number, it will take a certain amount of time to ......]
Yin Rena leaned her head against the stone wall, and she seemed to be able to look at the blue sky in front of her all the time.
She couldn't feel the passage of time, and she didn't know how long it had been open.
[Ding~ The magic ball has been fully opened, and it has been detected that the current situation of the host is not optimistic, and the physical props have been stored in the system space and can be accessed at any time for a period of 5 years. 】
[Ding~ The blood-related knowledge obtained from the opening of the magic ball has all been absorbed by the blood crest, and your unknown knowledge has been copied and stored in the archive library, which can be viewed at any time. 】
[Ding~ The Blood Emblem has advanced to the seventh order. 】
[Blood Emblem Order 6 - Sacred Territory: In your territory, the distance limit of the Divine Blood Army disappears.
Pope's Special Treatment: With the protection of the gods, you will no longer be affected by any psychic attacks, illusions, bewitchments, etc., and will not be able to teleport involuntarily. 】
[Blood Emblem Seventh Order - Revelation of the Gods: The Divine Blood Ones Occasionally Hear the Inspiration of the God of Life: Prophecy, Knowledge, Relationships, Creative Inspiration...... (Except for the Ancestors), compared to 'work ethic', Revelation will have more categories and the probability will also increase. 】
The blood core beat violently again, and the shock brought by advancing to two levels at one time made Yin Rena feel the power of her heartbeat again, but it didn't help.
She opened the system's temporary storage space with a bored attitude, only to glance at it casually and lose interest, because those things couldn't keep her alive.
When her heartbeat subsided, Yin Rena continued to cry weakly, but there was a vision.
She felt a flower in front of her, as if the phantom of a man was slowly rising from the pile of corpses like a hill, standing proudly above the bones of the corpses.
It should only be a soul body, but around him, you can still see countless iron chains binding his soul tightly.
Who is he?
Yin Rena felt a very strong power from him, stronger than everyone she had ever seen, probably excluding the angels and the Great Elders of the Holy See today, who were just restrained in themselves.
If she was allowed to guess, this person would be at least the seventh order or above! As for the ninth-order...... Yin Rena didn't dare to imagine that such a character would be imprisoned here.
I saw that the man slowly turned his head, staring at Yin Rena in the corner with a pair of deep eyes, tears running down his face, and leaving marks on her face.
"You smell of Blood, but you're not Blood, are you?"
Yin Rena didn't see the man open his mouth, but he could make a sound, a conversation between souls?
Yin Rena also followed his appearance, and sure enough, the words she silently recited in her heart could be conveyed to this mysterious man.
"I am indeed not a Bloodline, but a combination of a Bloodline and a human."
There was a slight surprise on his face, "I didn't think there would be such an interesting thing in the long years that I had been asleep. ”
"You haven't told me who you are."
Etiquette is still exchanged, Yin Rena told him his identity, and he should also tell himself.
"Who am I...... emm, gotta give me some time to think about it. ”
"It's okay to think about it slowly, anyway, we're both locked up here now, and time is the least valuable thing."
"Haha...... That's right, oh! I remember! As soon as the man joked, his memory suddenly returned, and he said:
"My name is Edward, a former Prince of the Blood."
Prince?
Yin Rena was taken aback for a moment, isn't that the level of the eighth order of the blood clan!?
Would the Bloodline lock up such a character instead of using it as a nuclear bomb?
"Surprised, right? That's normal, I'm the first prince in the history of the blood clan to be imprisoned in the dungeon of the Hidden Mountain, and I guess I'm the last. ”
"Then why are you locked in?"
"Why ......" Edward recalled for a while, and after a while he seemed to remember, but a touch of sadness also appeared on his face:
"I don't know how many years ago, I fought for peace between humans and the Bloods, and I spent most of my life for this, and finally achieved a phased success, the warlike Bloods were forced to swallow their anger, and the Bloods, who wanted to exchange cultures with humans, became the catalyst for this operation, and some neutral tribes disappeared...... Everything is going in a good direction. ”
"And at the last moment, as a representative, I was about to sign a friendship contract with the leader of the Human Empire and declare peace at the ceremony, the damned Mokawi suddenly went insane and began to attack humans frantically during the ceremony!"
"You may not know what kind of people the Mokawi are, but they are perhaps the most chaotic clan. Sometimes they are graceful and shrewd, and sometimes they fall into serious insanity, because of their wrong actions, the ritual breaks down, and the other bloods think it is a sign of a sudden war, so they rise up together and slaughter all the humans who participate in the ceremony! ”
"It's a good thing that the leader of the human race managed to escape, otherwise history could have changed dramatically because of this......"
"Later, a full-scale war broke out, and this war was also called ...... by later generations"
Yin Rena's face turned pale, she had seen the history of this aspect, but it was far from what Edward described, the blood clan was infinitely smeared and turned into a heinous bastard, she took Edward's words and said, "That is, the origin of the first holy war, right?" ”
Edward bowed slightly:
"That's right, after the war began, the warmongers who returned to power took revenge on me, and also to warn future generations that they can never reconcile with humanity, they sent me here, and in order to torture me, they also imprisoned my soul and made me suffer from the torture of time."
Such a punishment was arguably the most vicious, but Edward said it in an extremely calm tone.
"I've said so much, then, the combination of humans and bloodlines, I have a question, if you were to sit in my position at that time, what would you think about the relationship between blood and humans?"
Yin Rena thought for a while and replied:
"I also hope that the blood clan can get along with the human race, war will only bring suffering, I have seen the bottom human beings fall into the hell of this world because of the war, and I have also seen the hard life of the people at the bottom of the blood clan, the war between our two races is said to be two races, and in the end it is still a war that tortures their respective people, such a battle will never have a good result, no matter which side wins."
After listening to this, Edward nodded approvingly:
"So, what would you do if you were given strength?"
Yin Leina, who is not mentally stable, blurted out the answer she thought:
"I will kill all the belligerent bloods and humans, of course, I mean the leader, not all in the real sense, the guy who has no obstacles will have a chance to make peace!"
"Well said!" Edward applauded, "If I had the consciousness of you at that time and killed them beforehand, especially the Dogday's Mokavi, everything would have been different!" Unfortunately, I can't go back. ”
At this time, he looked at Yin Leina:
"You know what? When a person's level is high to a certain level, there will be more expansion of the senses in the world, far more than the experience brought to us by the five senses, cause and effect, future, and fate...... Mysterious and mysterious things are in our open, and we can already touch some clues, although it seems a little abrupt directly, but I think you are the one who can change the current situation! ”
"Me?" Yin Rena pointed at herself, her face full of disbelief and self-deprecation, "You said that a guinea pig who can't even get out of the dungeon and will soon be taken to the laboratory to be dissected and then soaked in a can of preservatives can change the future?" Sorry, please don't make me laugh, it's not funny. ”
"I believe in you."
"Just because of what I just answered?"
"That's right."
"Hehe......"
"Don't be so negative, I naturally won't waste so many words on a dead man, what if I say, you still have a chance to escape?"
Yin Rena didn't believe that an old guy who had been imprisoned for an unknown number of years could have any way to escape.
"With such ability, you wouldn't have been locked up here for so many years, you should have gone out a long time ago, right?"
"Hey~ I'm ashamed...... Let's not talk about it, let me tell you the truth, in order to allow me to escape, my previous subordinates spent a lot of effort to carve a teleportation circle at the bottom of the coffin where I was imprisoned, and the teleportation location is behind the mountain of the Hidden Mountain, which is the southernmost point of the Western Continent, as long as you walk a few steps back, it is the Southern Ocean. ”
Yin Reina's eyes lit up, "You mean to say ......"
"That's right, as long as you lie down in my coffin, you can activate the teleportation array with your consciousness and go out unscathed. It's a pity that I haven't had time to use it, and even my soul is bound, and I thought I had failed a piece of hard work from my subordinates, but I didn't expect it to be a foreshadowing for the seeds of the future. ”
"Is this also the result of your understanding of cause and effect?"
"Sort it off, junior, I can sense that you want to get out so badly...... No, it should be a very determined desire to live, as long as you promise me two conditions, I will tell you where my coffin is. ”
Yin Rena knew that the Blood Clan Council did not have much time left for her, and she would soon be transferred, so she didn't have time to find it from place to place.
After thinking about it again, Yin Rena still agreed to Edward's deal.
"Okay, you say, condition."
