Chapter 256: Farewell

"There is no danger in dreams."

Above the gray mist, Crane successfully got the divination answer, and muttered in a low voice.

This is not to be expected.

But now there is a small problem, that is, although the dream itself is not dangerous, and even has many benefits, the act of entering the dream contains great risks!

For the extraordinary, even sleeping spirituality can provide a degree of warning. But once the spirit enters the dream realm, his body will be in a completely defenseless state. And once someone takes advantage of this opportunity to attack him, even just an ordinary person can easily kill him.

Therefore, it is necessary to ensure that when you enter the dream world, you have someone around to protect you.

The reason why Duke Olmer of the Bloodline let the other Bloods go to him to sleep must have been for the same reason. The same goes for Miss Justice, who is protected by an angel, so naturally they don't have to worry about any danger.

But for Klein, who was alone at sea, let alone finding an angel to protect him, he didn't even have a trustworthy person.

As for the other members of the Tarot Society, the situation was much better than him.

For example, the 'Hanged Man' and the 'Hermit', they are both 'pirates' and also have their own pirate ships.

The former is a member of the Church of the Storm, and the ship's crew will presumably be no exception. As a fellow 'devout' member of the Storm Church, the crew would certainly not have done anything to him as a captain.

After all, once something happens to the captain, the Storm Church will definitely be held accountable in the future.

And the latter, as one of the pirate generals, must have absolute control over his own pirate ship. With the protection of a whole ship, there is no need to worry about safety either.

'The Magician' and the 'Judge' are clearly acquainted in reality, and they can protect each other.

And the 'sun', although he has the same safety concerns as himself.

But he is in the land of God's forsakenness, isolated from the outside world, and it is not certain whether he can even connect to the 'dream realm'.

Of course.

It's not entirely without a solution.

Because Klein also has his own messenger, and Miss Messenger's strength is very strong, at least at the demigod level-

This was something that Klein had already established when he first met Miss Courier in the spirit realm, seeing her massive real body and Gothic-style castle.

In addition, there is a contract between the messenger and the contractor, and the contract stipulates that the messenger cannot harm the life of the contractor, so the relationship between the two parties is completely mutually beneficial.

So if you can get the help of Miss Messenger, the safety aspect will definitely be guaranteed. But I'm afraid that Miss Courier won't agree, after all, the contract between them is to let Miss Courier deliver letters, not to be bodyguards.

The contract only stipulates that the life of the contractor must not be endangered, and it is not mandatory for the messenger to protect him in times of danger.

Thinking of this, Crane wrapped himself in spirituality, simulating the sensation of a rapid fall, returning to the real world.

Inside the hotel.

Crane looked at the quietly burning candle flame, and he took a step back and said:

"Me!

"In my name I call:

"The spirit that wanders in vanity, the friendly creature that can be driven, belongs to Gelman alone. Sparrow's Messenger. ”

Call!

Inside the spiritual wall, the wind was fierce, and Crane's half-height silk top hat almost rose into the air.

The candle flame faltered, swelling to the size of a human head, pale as if it had lost its temperature.

A translucent head slowly drilled out as if breaking through a membrane, her hair was pale blonde and smooth, her eyes were scarlet like blood, and her appearance was bright and magnificent, and she looked like a pretty good beauty.

However, the head was completely drilled out, followed not by the neck, but by the illusory palm that pinched the ends of her hair.

Behind the palm of the hand are the cuffs with intricate patterns but dark colors......

Renette. Tinicol came out unhurriedly, still wearing the long black dress that was gloomy and complicated, and carrying four identical beautiful heads.

Renette. Tinicol glanced at Crane, and the four heads of the blonde and red-eyed each turned around and said:

"No ......" "Faith ......"

"This time I have something to discuss with you."

Crane smiled and handed over a gold coin, "This is the summoning fee. ”

Renette. One of Tinicol's heads bit down on the gold coin, and the two who had not been able to speak before asked:

"What ......" "Things ......"

"I may be in some danger lately, I hope to summon you to help, is that okay?"

Klein struggled to make his gaze look sincere.

Renette. The eight eyeballs of Tinikol's four heads rolled at the same time:

"Can ......", "Pay ......", "Gold ......", "10,000 ......"

…… 10,000 pieces, equivalent to 10,000 pounds! The corners of Klein's mouth twitched slightly, and he squeezed out a smile with difficulty, and said:

"I don't have that much money......"

Renette. Tinicol spoke in turn with four heads:

"You ......", "Can ......", "Installment ......", "Payment ......"

"Installment ......"

Klein had a bit of a headache, and he couldn't pay in installments.

He entered the dream not once or twice, but every night.

10,000 gold coins at a time, who can withstand this?

Renette. Tinicol seemed to sense his embarrassment, and the four heads spoke again:

"You ......", "You can ......", "Let's talk ...... first", "What ......", "Busy."

Klein hesitated for two seconds before speaking:

"I need to pray to an angel and enter the dream she created every night. And during the time I was in the dream, my body needed someone to protect me......"

Renette. Tinikole's four heads rolled their eyes for a moment, and he spoke:

"...... each time", "Ten ......", "Gold ......", "...... occurrence", "Battle ......", "Count ...... separately"

"Yes."

Crane breathed a sigh of relief and nodded in agreement.

Ten gold coins at a time are equivalent to ten pounds, and at the end of a month it is only three hundred pounds.

In the absence of a fight, the complete additional expenditure of three hundred pounds is entirely within the acceptable range of Kleinβ€”

In the future, he would hunt a pirate with a bounty of more than Β£300 every month.

And in the event of a battle, although additional costs will be incurred. But that also means that his life is threatened, and it is worth the extra money!

"Whew!"

Klein took a breath and, without concealment, in the presence of Miss Messenger, began to pray:

"The fallen son of darkness of the abyss,

Forbidden jealous witch,

Chronicler of lost history.

I pray that you will let me have a sweet dream. ”

Renette. Tinicol didn't speak, but the four heads of the blonde and red-eyed looked at Crane at the same time, which suddenly made Crane a little panicked, what was going on?

How does it feel that Miss Courier seems to be reacting to this honorific name? Did they know each other before?

Renette. Tinicole's four heads spoke slowly:

"You got ......", "Where did you ......", "Get ......", "This ......", "Honorable ......"

"From a friend." Crane tried to restrain his expression.

Miss Courier's reaction proves that she and Calulah know each other, and that their relationship should not be bad, otherwise Miss Courier would not have reacted in this way.

However, this is not surprising, after all, the 'primordial world' came at the end of the Second Age, thousands of years ago. In other words, 'Kalula has lived in this world for at least a thousand years, and in her long life, it is normal to be able to know one or two friends, maybe Miss Courier has been Kalula's messenger before......

Klein's divergent thinking, Renette. Tinicol was silent for a few seconds, and the four heads spoke in turn:

"Tell ......", "I ......", "Dream ......", "......", "Things ......"

"Protect ......" and "...... without charge"

Klein remained silent, as if he hesitated for a few seconds, but reluctantly agreed:

"Yes."

What a good thing!

If you don't give money, you can prostitute the protection of an existence at least a demigod for nothing, and the price is nothing more than telling her what happened in the dream, and there is such a good thing?!

Not to mention anything else, he is very familiar with this 'dream'. Even if he doesn't go into the dream, he can tell the messenger what happened in the dream with his eyes closed! β€”β€”

Langdenheim.

The top of the magnificent castle has been restored, inside the hall with a soaring dome.

The blonde-haired girl sat on the huge blood-colored throne that did not match her petite size, and looked at the young man who was kneeling on the ground with an extremely indifferent expression, his clothes were messy and torn, and his hair was burned, and said coldly:

"So not only did you fail to kill that lizard, but you also lost hundreds of people?"

The young man broke out in a cold sweat and looked up in panic and said:

"Ancestor, your subordinates deserve death for their sins, but ......"

Bang!

Before the words fell, the young man's body was suddenly knocked out for hundreds of meters and slammed into the wall at the end of the hall.

"They're all dead, what are you doing here?"

Lilith withdrew her palm and said lightly.

The young man was so frightened from the ground that he didn't even dare to wipe the blood stains on the corners of his mouth, and quickly fell to his knees in panic.

Lilith looked at the other young man on the right side of the hall and said lazily:

"Olmer, this task is up to you, don't let me down."

"They will live up to the trust of their ancestors."

Olmer bowed his head deeply and said respectfully.

Since Lilith took over Langdenheim, the city's upper echelons have been shattered.

The original patriarchs of the twelve families were all hunted and killed, and none of them were spared. In their place were twelve newly promoted blood demigods.

As the first to show kindness to Lilith, and even to a certain extent, Olmer, who led the way, unsurprisingly gained an extraordinary demigod's characteristics. Although it is not as good as one step to the sky, it is directly promoted to Ornia and Alyssa from the gods. But Olmer is also the most respected and trusted of the demigods.

"As for you,"

Lilith glanced at the young man kneeling on the ground and said lightly:

"You go with Olmer, and if you fail again this time, you know what the consequences will be."

"My subordinates understand."

The young man nodded hurriedly, with a hint of surprise in his eyes.

Although he is also a demigod, that doesn't mean his position is secure.

Because Lilith didn't trust them as demigods, she simply ordered eleven people to come out to replace the original position of the twelve patriarchs, and the implementation was also a competitive employment system-

All demigods must contribute enough to the Bloodline, or their status will be taken by someone else.

However, the patriarch of the twelve families was too capable, resulting in a large number of descendants who wanted to become demigods.

And in this competitive environment, there are too many, too many people staring at the position of these demigods. Once they make a mistake in their position and fail to fulfill their due duties, they are in danger of being replaced by others at any time.

Except for the two slaves and Olmer, everyone else has to worry about whether they will be replaced tomorrow. It's just that the status of those two gods actually makes a considerable number of people in the blood clan feel a little absurd.

Her Royal Highness Ornia is the younger sister of Lord Lilith, and is naturally qualified to become a god.

But the other, Olmer's sister Alyssa's godhood, only makes them feel ridiculous-

Because the reason why the other party can become a god is simply because when the adult asked them what name they would give themselves if they became gods, only Alyssa took the name of the goddess of life very seriously.

This is undoubtedly unique among the bloodlines who have tried to avoid being associated with the former god of life, Lyzius.

But it was because of this god name that she obtained the god position that others coveted......

"Stand down."

Lilith said lightly.

Olmer bowed his head respectfully and stepped back out of the hall, followed by the young man.

When everyone left, Lilith's figure disappeared silently in the moonlight.

Reappeared, already in a luxuriously decorated room in the castle.

"Ah, I'm so tired!"

Lily threw herself on the bed without any image, burying her head deep in the soft pillow, a far cry from the cold image she had previously used to reprimand a demigod in front of the other Bloods.

Ember glanced at the girl who was lying on the bed in large letters, and spoke:

"Pay attention to the image, you are now the ancestor of the Blood Clan."

"So what?"

Lilith looked up from the pillow and muttered quietly:

"It's not what I want to be......"

Ember said calmly:

"If you really don't want to be, I can let Ornia do it too."

"No way!"

Like a kitten with a tail on it, Lilith jumped up from the bed with a burst of hair, and said in annoyance:

"Absolutely not!"

Ember smiled dumbly and didn't say anything, just took out a ring and handed it to Lilith.

"What is this?"

Lilith asked in confusion as she looked at the emerald set in the ring, which was riddled with numerous scratches.

"Sacrificial Ring."

Ember explained slightly, "It can bear death in place of the wearer." ”

As he spoke, Ember slowly stretched out his hand, and flames rose from his palm.

Immediately afterward, a small ring condensed from the flames.

The ring is translucent, as if made of pale red amber, and is topped with a blood-colored gemstone half the size of a fingernail, emitting a faint glow.

Ember brought the ring to Lilith and whispered:

"This is for you, and it contains a portion of the power of the First Fire, enough to sustain you until you become a true god."
