Chapter 173: History
"Bang!
β
Duanmu Huai stretched out his hand and threw the dead pig-like man on the ground, and then he sat down with a golden knife and glared at the other party coldly.
And beside Duanmu Huai, Guraya, Bambi, and the Vigilant also stared at him.
Bambi, in particular, is still angry at the moment, obviously she is still very angry about her home being occupied by doves.
"Okay, tell me, who are you? And why are you here? Why are you catching Bambi? β
ββ¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β
At this moment, the man has completely lost his previous arrogance, perhaps because he witnessed the demon god he believed in being defeated by Duanmu Huai, and the man at this time was already like ashes, and then he quickly confessed and explained everything.
And this has to start with the original vampire clan.
As mentioned before, vampires like Bambi are almost perfect creatures, but more importantly, they are all immortal creatures that never die unless they are killed.
This naturally aroused the peep of humans at that time, as Bambi said, there was a time when humans even deliberately deceived the feelings of vampires in order to obtain immortality, making them turn themselves into volumes. Later, the vampires also found out that these humans were only trying to deceive them for eternal life, so these vampires no longer believed in humans, and under the orders of the queen, they closed themselves and lived their own lives.
But humans naturally don't give up like this, and this man is also one of them, he was the king of a country at the time, and as a human being, he naturally longed for the ability to be immortal. But because the vampires closed the country and didn't give him any chance at all, this made the king angry, and at this time, a mysterious man appeared in front of the king and gave him a suggestion.
As long as you can eat the flesh and blood of vampires, you can inherit their power and gain the ability to be immortal.
Hearing this, the king was naturally very actual, but ......... Vampires are not lambs, where is there such a good deal to deal with?
If it were so easy to deal with, the vampires would have been wiped out long ago. Not to mention, outside the vampire kingdom, there is a magic barrier that cannot be broken through, and no creature is allowed to enter, in this case, even if you want to attack, you can't start.
However, the mysterious man gave the king a way to break the magical barrier, and he gave the king a suggestion, and said that as long as the king sacrificed the blood and soul of his family, he could make a contract with a powerful demon god, so that he could easily break through the magic barrier of the vampire kingdom.
Eventually, the desire for immortality overcame all else, and the king killed all his blood relatives with his own hands, as the mysterious man said, and then dedicated their souls and blood to the demon god. And get a powerful crystal full of magic, as long as you use this crystal, you can break through the magic barrier of the vampire kingdom.
So, on the day of the new moon, the king led a large army to the vampire kingdom, and he threw the crystal full of blood and soul in his hand towards the barrier, and soon, the barrier shattered, and the rich smell of blood and the screams of the necromancers instantly enveloped the entire vampire royal city.
And although the vampires at that time were vampires, they were not necromantic creatures, but living creatures. Weakened by the wind of death and blood, the king led his army into the city, slew the vampires who were celebrating the Crescent Realm, and then ...............
"Alright."
Looking at Bambi's pale face and swaying body beside him, Duanmu Huai directly interrupted the other party's narration, he glanced at Gruya, who nodded and reached out to hold Bambi's body.
"Bambi, you're tired too, let's go rest."
"Hmm............... Bambi doesn't want to hear it..............."
At this moment, Bambi also nodded in fear, and then was taken out by Gruya. It wasn't until the two left that Duanmu Huai looked at the man again.
"Go ahead."
Then, just as Duanmu had guessed, the man and his soldiers killed all the vampires and ate their flesh, and then, in the scarlet moonlight, they transformed into new monsters.
But soon, they discover that the vampire they transform into is fundamentally different from a pure-bred vampire like Bambi.
They don't breathe, they don't have a heartbeat, and they have to feed on blood to stay alive or they fall asleep, and they don't get sunlight or even other food.
The enraged king approached the mysterious man and asked him why, only to learn that the ritual of transforming vampires was incompleteβββ and that only by absorbing the purest essence and blood from the royal family, and using it to tainten the core treasure of the vampire clan, the Elder Scrolls, could he become a pure-blooded vampire, instead of the current defective product.
In the vampire kingdom, only the queen and the princess have pure-blood essence.
Among them, in order to protect the people, the queen was completely destroyed in the battle with the incarnation of the demon god, and her soul was imprisoned in the realm of annihilation of the demon god. As for the princess, she was nowhere to be found, so after that, the king kept sending people around to search for the missing princess, until not long ago, he finally found a clue and locked down the princess's location.
Therefore, in order to complete his plan and turn himself into a pure vampire, the man also started a plan. He first snatched the Star of Azula from a necromancer and transformed it, while sending others to find the place where the princess was sleeping. In the man's mind, as long as he can awaken the princess and then absorb her soul with the transformed Azula Star, then he can completely control the last pure-blood royal family in the world.
He even thought that after he became a pure-blood royal family, he would have a new vampire race with the other party, as long as a large group of vampire royal families who were not afraid of the sun appeared, then he would be able to conquer the world............... Then make this continent the territory of that demon god.........
"Poof."
The man's head shattered like a walnut in an instant, his brains mixed with blood splattered and scattered, Duanmu Huai shook his hand and threw the headless corpse into the fire.
"Okay, I've almost heard enough of the delusions, it's really boring."
"yes..............."
The vigilante also looked at the headless corpse engulfed by the fire with a complicated expression, and didn't know what to say for a while.
"I......... I used to think that vampires were the most evil monsters in the world, but I couldn't have imagined that humans would do such unimaginable atrocities. β
"That's also the result of the Demon God's bewitchment."
Duanmu Huai gave an expression of answer. Although in fact, after many similar situations, the evil gods who are the main messengers behind the scenes will say that it is the selfish and cruel nature of human beings that will commit such depraved behavior, even if they do not have themselves, it is only a matter of time before they go down the wrong path.
But for Duanmu Huai, it's all, okay.
Even without you? Reality is not if, reality is that you lure them to fall, okay?
It's like these guys, if you hadn't sent your own followers to bewitch them, would they have the courage to attack the vampire kingdom?
To put it bluntly, it's not you who did it?
What human nature is like this, without you would have fallen, as a judge you will not believe your nonsense?
This kind of thing, it's definitely not humans who are wrong, it's demon gods.
This is all the result of the demon god's bewitchment, okay.
Therefore, there is a debtor and a debtor, and the most important thing is to settle accounts with you.
In Duanmuhuai's view, anyone who pushes the crime to the "nature" is, the rabbit is in a hurry and bites, what, shouldn't the person who forced the rabbit to bite in a hurry, but blame the rabbit's bad nature? Could it be that rabbits with good natures don't bite when they're in a hurry?
What stupid logic?
If we really want to discuss this issue, when all of you demon gods and evil gods who like to bewitch humans are dead, we will have a lot of time to discuss what human nature is.
Until then, this pot is yours, don't try to pick it for me.
"Okay, that's it for now, and the rest will be tomorrow."
Duanmu Huai shook his head and turned to walk out of the room, while the watchman stared at the corpse in the fire, was silent for a moment, and then turned to leave.
In the hallway, Duanmu Huai saw Gu Leiya standing there.
"Where's Bambi?"
"Asleep."
Gurney glanced at the door next to her and replied in a low voice.
"It seems that Bambi has really been hit hard......... It's no wonder, after all, her clan has been destroyed, and she is left alone......... For Bambi, it was like a dream........."
Speaking of this, Gurney shook her head helplessly, she could imagine Bambi's mood at the moment, although for them, this is the past few hundred years, but for Bambi, she was still enjoying a happy life in the castle a few days ago, participating in a lively banquet, only to wake up, her kingdom has been destroyed, all her compatriots have been killed, and even the castle has been occupied...............
Well, things are not people, vicissitudes, but with this.
"You go and accompany her, and we'll talk about the rest tomorrow."
"Okay."
Gurneya nodded, and then went back to the bedroom, while Duanmu Huai walked to the nearby balcony and looked at the blazing bonfire belowβββ after killing the group of vampires, Duanmu Huai summoned a bunch of dolls and told them to throw all the corpses into the fire and burn them, while searching the entire castle to avoid any fish that slipped through the net.
At least for now, it seems that everything is going well.
However, at this time, suddenly, a voice emerged from Duanmu Huai's head.
[Mr. Knight, Mr. Knight, have you slept? γ
"Ann? What's the matter? β
Hearing Ann's voice, Duanmu Huai smiled, through the soul card, he can telepathize with his summons anytime and anywhere, which is also a relatively convenient ability. At least as it is now, we can still communicate from thousands of miles away.
It's just that they can only contact Duanmu Locust, but they can't contact each other.
[Haven't slept yet? What about Gruya? Are you all right? Nothing happened, right?]
Sure enough, three sentences without leaving Gu Leiya are also Ann's characteristics.
"Grua is fine, just a little trouble..............."
Duanmu Huai briefly explained the matter of the vampire kingdom to An, and the latter also seemed a little complicated.
[I really didn't expect such a thing......... Is that Bambi better? γ
"I went to sleep after being hit, I let Guria accompany her, it shouldn't be a big deal."
[That is, Gurella is actually very good at taking care of people............ Ah, by the way, Mr. Knight, I'm looking for you]
"Oh? What's up? β
Duanmu Huai also knew that it was impossible for An to be idle at night and chat with him.
[That's right, recently, the academy organized an exploration activity for us to explore the dungeon, and then we also found a very interesting thing under the dungeon! What is it called......... ......... of Magnus's Eye
"Uh-huh......... Well!? Wait a minute, Eye of Magnus?! β
Hearing this name, Duanmu Huai suddenly perked up and hurriedly opened his eyes.
The Eye of Magnus? Is that the Eye of Magnus?
"What does that thing look like?"
[Hmm......... It's a very large sphere, glowing on the inside, and it's wrapped in a metal shell that is still spinning.........]
"Damn! Sure enough, it's this thing!
β
Hearing this, Duanmu Huai suddenly burst out foul language.
The reason is very simple, he is very familiar with this thing!
This also starts with the sixteenth gene protogen possessed by Duanmu Huaiβββ the owner of the sixteenth gene protogen was once one of the children of the emperor of the human empire, named Magnus, the crimson king, who is the psyker with the most outstanding psionic talent among all the emperor's children. At that time, among Magnus's army of thousands of sons, there were many psionic mutants.
To put it simply, Magnus is like a knowledge-seeking, powerful mage, leading an equally powerful mage army into battle, and his home planet is also a treasure trove of books full of knowledge and command.
Magnus, however, had only one eye, although he himself claimed to have dedicated his right eye in pursuit of knowledge. But according to gossip from all walks of life in the subspace, Magnus lost her right eye in a bet with the deceitful god.
After that, in order to boast of his victory, the god of deceit made Magnus's right eye into an artifact, known as the "Eye of Magnus", and it is said that Magnus also tried to retrieve his right eye, but it was never successful.
In the game, the Eye of Magnus is a psionic amplification device, if you use game terms, it means that within the range of the Eye of Magnus, the magic attack power of all psionics will be greatly increased, and even the wielder will be covered by psionic energy, gaining almost invincible defense.
If it is used as the flagship artifact of the fleet, then all the ships in the fleet will double the Void Shield protection ability, and even be able to safely pass through the turbulence of subspace.
Well, it's very easy to use, it's very powerful, and of course, there is a side effect that is not marked in the description at all.
As we all know, the more psionic people in the real world use psionic energy, the more mutations will occur in their bodies. And this Eye of Magnus is no exception, in fact, there have been mage players who used the Eye of Magnus on the battlefield, and after using it, they found that more than half of the psionic legions under their hands had turned into blue-and-pink monsters.........
Of course, for soul walkers, there is no such danger, after all, the soul card itself is already a subspace projection, and it is impossible to mutate anymore!
"Where's that thing now?"
[Huh? The Chief Mage transported it to Winterhold Academy, saying it was to investigate.]
"Wait, I'll be over tomorrow!"
At this moment, Duanmu Huai's depressed mood just now was swept away, I really didn't expect to be able to find the Eye of Magnus in the Fragment World!
It seems that this continent has not come in vain!
