Chapter 585: [Finale!]

Previous Chapter

Coming to this underground dark room again, Char suddenly felt a trace of emotion in his heart.

The first time I came here, I had a secret meeting with Adeline here...... At that time, I was still stupid, not male and female, and when I remembered that time, I really sighed in my heart.

Poor worm...... Hey, after the ** thing, I always have to pick her up quickly. Garcia's knot will slowly dissolve in the future.

As he spoke, he took Nene's hand and walked over to the wall where he had been standing.

Wipe away the dust, revealing the tulip totem badge hidden beneath the dust.

"I remember saying there were four doors here. Char said, "What is the gate of glory on the left wall?" On the right is the Gate of Disillusionment, and on the wall in the middle is the Gate of Salvation. Finally, the fourth gate, called the Gate of the Fallen, is unknown. ”

"When the adults told me, they didn't say anything in detail, but they just said that the Tulip Family had a great relationship with the Holy City. ”

Char nodded: "I heard her talk about this before, the first generation of Grand Duke Tulip is actually one of the seeds thrown out by the Holy City to experience in this world, but he is too good, and finally grew into a rare powerhouse in the world, and when the Holy City sent a messenger to summon him back, he directly refused." He also led to the forcible arrest of the Holy City, but even Saint Laurent Garros at that time could not do anything about him, so the first Grand Duke of Tulip remained in the world. The Holy City was also forced to acquiesce in this kind of thing. ”

He suddenly moved in his heart, looked at Nene and said, "Isn't it that simple?"

Nene smiled bitterly: "At that time, where did the adults have time to explain these things to me slowly and in detail. Just told me how to open the door. ”

As she spoke, she pointed to the wall on the left.

"This gate of glory, my lord said, can be opened as long as the blood of the lord of the city, that is, the descendant of the queen of men, is sprinkled on this wall. ”

"Oh, it's that simple?"

"This is not simple!" "The descendants of the Human Emperor are basically in the Holy City, and they will not come to the outside world easily! Even if some of them go to the outside world for training, they are extremely rare!"

Char thought for a moment, looked at Nene and smiled, "Hey, wouldn't that just use your blood?"

Nene smiled, and took out a dagger to puncture his palm, smearing a little blood on the wall.

As the blood dissolved, the walls slowly melted, revealing a small space the size of a wardrobe.

Char glanced at it, but was a little puzzled.

It's just a gold plate.

Char took it and looked at it a few times, and couldn't help frowning.

"This is just a crimson murderous cultivation method. Char looked at it for a while and said, "But there are still some more experiences left by generations of cultivators, and they are not a great treasure." ”

Nene glared at Char: "Crimson murderous! You are a top powerhouse now, so naturally you don't care, but if it falls into the hands of others...... This kind of stunt can forge a master!"

Char frowned: "Could it be that this is the treasure left here by the Tulip family? In case the family is in the middle of the road, the descendants can get the cheats here, and then cultivate to become a master and revitalize the family? ”

Char looked at the other wall, "What about this Gate of Disillusionment?"

"Then you have to use the blood of the Saint Laurent Garros clan, that is, the guardian clan of the Holy City, the black-haired clan, so ......"

Char looked at Nene and said with a smile: "Fair and fair! This is very fair, you are a queen descendant with blood, and I also have some blood, everyone is even." ”

As he spoke, he punctured his palm and smeared blood on the wall as well.

After a few moments, the wall dissolved, revealing a small cabinet-sized space that was still a gold plate.

Xia Yana came over to take a look, but he was more and more disappointed.

"It's worse than the one just now. Char smiled bitterly: "This is the cultivation method of the brilliant fighting spirit, and my senior brother Hesting will do it." ”

"For ordinary people, it is also a peerless martial art. Nene sighed.

Char thought for a while, frowned, and said, "No, since the Tulip family is just a seed that has been thrown out for training, the case hand should only be a black-haired family, and the same clan as Saint Laurent Garros, but how could this door be made, but it needs the blood of the city lord emperor?"

"How do I know this?" Nene glared, then said, "Maybe the answer is behind the third gate?"

"Well, look at this door of salvation. ”

Char sighed.

"Is this door of salvation...... The adults said that they had to be smeared with the blood of the two of them before they could be opened. ”

Char didn't bother to comment, and directly smeared the blood with the two of Nene...... After a few moments, the front wall melted open, and there was still a gold plate inside.

"It won't be another martial arts cultivation method. Char frowned.

With his current realm strength, he really has no interest in any martial arts.

But fortunately, after taking it and looking at it twice, Char's eyes suddenly lit up!

"What a big gossip!" Char laughed: "It turned out to be a suicide note written by the first generation of Grand Duke Tulip!"

On this gold plate is his suicide note written by the first Duke Tulip, which has been passed down to future generations.

And Char couldn't help but sigh halfway through it - what a daring guy!

Saint Laurent Garros said he didn't say enough to himself!

I only said that the first generation of Duke Tulip was an experienced practitioner thrown in the world by the guardian of the Holy City, but I didn't expect this experienced person to be so simple!

The first Duke Tulip turned out to be a treasure from the Holy City when he left the Holy City and lived in the world!

He...... The kidnapped person was actually a girl with the blood of the queen of people, that is, the blood of the city lord!!

This guy kidnapped a girl, and naturally lived a chic life with her in the world. He became a master, then learned the art of war, took refuge in the founding emperor of the Byzantine Empire, and then fought a war to level the world.

Created a magnificent life.

A legend was born.

And when he wrote that he had achieved fame, someone from the Holy City called him back, and after he refused, the Saint Laurent Garros of that generation could not overpower the Grand Duke Tulip in strength, so he had to give up force and forcibly recall him.

However, Grand Duke Tulip felt his own life experience and his wife's life experience, and made a judgment that was almost prophetic: in the future, the holy city will definitely collapse, and such a cage is really against the human surname. I was born in the Holy City, and I really didn't want to see the Holy City fall to extinction.

So, the first Duke of Tulip and St. Laurent Garros reached a deal, Duke Tulip did not return to the Holy City, and St. Laurent Garros also guaranteed that the Holy City would not trouble the Tulip family, but set up a back hand in the Tulip Family, leaving behind the strongest martial arts of the guardian clan in the Holy City, crimson murderous and brilliant fighting spirit.

If there is a day in the future, the Holy City will be destroyed, then the two-day stunt of the guardian of the Holy City will not be lost.

As long as someone from the Holy City, whether it is a descendant of the Empress or a descendant of the Guardian, finds the Tulip Family, the Tulip Family will help them, at least to help pass on these two sets of martial arts.

Char didn't have much interest in this so-called backhand or the conditions of the exchange.

The things behind these three doors really made Char a little disappointed.

Whether it's crimson murderous or bright, Char really has no value - if someone else finds these things, they will naturally be overjoyed, but for Char, who is almost invincible in the world, it's ...... However, the suicide note of the first Grand Duke Tulip recorded a lot of things that interested Char.

In particular, the account of this grand duke, his magnificent life, the pacification of the country, the establishment of the entire Byzantine Empire, and so on, look as fascinating as a legendary story.

Char sat in this secret room and watched for half an hour before reading the contents of the gold plate.

"This first generation of Tulip Grand Duke seems to be a wonderful person, he is really amazing, and his surname is also very cute. It's just that what does he always say, 'It's a pity that although this world is good, Lao Tzu can't go back' what does it mean?"

Where do you mean by "going back"? I don't think I'm talking about going back to the Holy City.

"Where's the fourth door?" Char looked at None.

"Fourth door...... Nene smiled bitterly, "I know where it is...... And the lord said, The fourth door is in this third door. ”

"It's that simple?" Char frowned, "The Gate of the Fallen...... How do I turn it on?"

Nene's face flushed: "This ...... The Lord said that the fourth door needs the blood of the two bloodlines of the Human Queen Descendant and the Guardian Clan to open. ”

Char couldn't help but be stunned when she heard this.

Immediately, his expression couldn't help but become strange.

A mixture of two bloodlines...... Doesn't that mean?

Wouldn't it be possible to wait until he had a child with Nene...... Char couldn't help but laugh at once.

Three doors were opened tonight, and the receipt was not too big, so Char immediately put the matter aside and stopped thinking about it.

On the second day, Char returned to the ** city and began to be busy.

The city defense has been completely taken over, and Green and the follow-up troops have gradually gone to **.

Green set out to reorganize the army, and the armies of the former warlord party inevitably had to be dismantled and reorganized.

Char has blatantly exercised the power of the original Adric - no one dares to question it.

However, the original prime minister, Salembonili, has been living in the palace and accompanying the little emperor.

It's just that the two of them are together, and they are both closely monitored by Char's men.

After more than ten days, the Duke of Minas in the south finally went north.

The Duke took Roddy to ** with him - the old man still had some thoughts in his heart, so he brought 50,000 troops at the same time!

The armies on both sides camped opposite each other under the city, and the Duke of Minas was worthy of being a political veteran, and accepted Char's invitation to enter the city freely, and actually generously took Roddy directly into Osgilia.

Char expressed her satisfaction with the old man's ease.

But the next negotiations made Char a little helpless.

The old duke is old and strong, and he is even more uncompromising when talking about the conditions - Char didn't care about these conditions originally, but his subordinates Green, Reinhardt, Sophie, and even Ruhl and others refused to give in, and asked Char to grit his teeth to death.

Even when talking about the stalemate, both sides said such cruel words as "see you on the battlefield".

It wasn't until more than ten days of discussion that the Duke of Minas finally gave up excessive demands such as "autonomy of the three southern counties", and only asked for the fiefdom of the Minas family to be expanded, and there were many benefits for financial and tax issues.

Char knew that this was the old man's bottom line, and besides, he himself was a big nobleman, so he didn't care about himself.

In the end, the old duke became the chancellor of the empire, and Roddy took over as the emperor's minister.

As for Char...... He was given the official position of Marshal of the Protectorate.

Immediately, after this series of appointments, the whole ** was jubilant!

Everyone understands that the clouds of civil war have finally cleared completely!

The Byzantine Empire is about to be flattened!

Moreover, this is true peace!

The warlord party has been pacified, and the Duke of Minas in the south has changed his banner!

Then the good news came again.

Salvatore, the former chief boss of the Round Table and the governor of the RhodrΓ­a Military Region, sent an envoy to **, expressing his willingness to submit to Char, but only to keep his noble title.

Salvador knew each other like this, which made Char very satisfied - perhaps, Hughes's death gave his old partner Salvador enough shock.

The pacification of the RhodrΓ­a region has finally led to the collapse of the warlord factions that were still struggling at the end.

After March, Rodi of the Minas family led 30,000 cavalry north to quell the rebellion.

Half a year later...... The whole empire is pacified!

And it was the last night before the end of the war.

Queen Defanny gave birth to a son in the tulip family's courtyard!

Second, the imperial family issued a decree announcing that this son was the first in line to the throne of the imperial family.

For a while, the entire ** aristocratic circle fell into an unusual silence!

The common people don't know - but who doesn't know the core bosses of the aristocratic circles? Garcia is a rabbit, and the child born to the empress is by no means the emperor's species!

But then looking at the announcement made by Char, the Marshal of the Protectorate, and the Duke of the Minas Family and the Prime Minister of the Empire, which nobleman would dare to talk at such a time?

Even the Landis Kingdom sent a congratulatory letter as soon as possible, as well as a small gift.

This gift is that Lantis has completely ceded the port area of Osgilia, completely withdrawn from the Byzantine Empire, and the original occupied Catania region and other places have also begun to withdraw troops.

This decision has something to do with Merlin.

Legend has it that after Lord Merlin personally returned to the kingdom of Landis and met with the king, Landis changed his attitude.

Of course, if the Landis wouldn't spit out these places, Char wouldn't mind just sending them back to sea.

Just in ** fell into the celebration of the establishment of the heir to the throne.

On the second day of the celebration, His Majesty Garcia, Emperor of the Empire...... Death.

For a time, the aristocracy of the entire empire collectively lost their voice!

This Char thunderstruck...... What a ruthless method! It is also a bold and reckless method! He actually didn't care about it at all, in order to take Garcia's life, he couldn't wait?!

Finally, after Garcia's death, in the north, a convoy arrived late**.

Garcia's funeral was finally able to take place.

At the funeral, Char didn't care about the impact at all, and openly missed the emperor's funeral - with his current power, who would dare to say a word?

Even excuses like "I have a headache today" are too nonsense.

Above the funeral was poor Adeline.

The poor worm personally presided over his brother's funeral, and it can be regarded as his last wish for this brother.

As the daughter of the royal family, she knows very well that many things, being in the royal family, are just involuntarily.

The end of Garcia's funeral also put a final stop to the turmoil in the Byzantine Empire!

Subsequently, under the auspices of Marshal Char, the Prime Minister Duke of Minas, the Minister of War Rodi, and the commander of the Central Army, Ruhr, the Byzantine Empire began a comprehensive recovery.

Five years later, the Prime Minister, Lord Duke Minas, died of illness.

Before he died, the old man called Roddy to his side and said this to his son.

"Char is not dangerous, he has no ambitions, so as long as you keep to yourself, our family will be rich and secure - just be careful, although that guy is not ambitious, it is difficult to guarantee that the gang under his command will not be happy. Fortunately, I know you well, you are very kind, and you will not have any contradictions with Char. ”

Speaking of this, the old duke couldn't help but sigh: "Actually, back then, if I was ruthless, even if I fought with him for this world! H......mph It's just that the reason why I gave up was because of you, Roddy. ”

When the old man said this, he coughed a few times, looked at the sad son in front of him, and said in a low voice: "You have no ambition at all, even if I have the heart to compete with Char for the world, but an heir like you, once I die, you will never be the opponent of him and his gang." So after thinking about it, I agreed to their conditions. Pity...... If you have half the ambition, my Minas family may just sit on the throne!"

When Luo Di heard this, he wept and said, "Father, I have never wanted power in my heart, but I just want peace of mind. ”

"But peace of mind...... Peace of mind......"

The old man recited these words silently, and finally closed his eyes.

The death of the Duke of Minas completely lost the position of Char in the power map of the empire. And the little duke Roddy is a guy who has no political ambitions at all.

In the following two years, Char Lei Ming was once again named the regent of the protector of the country!

Although there was an uproar, although Char married Princess Adeline, it was not a real royal family after all, and it was inevitable that he would be crowned king.

However, the big names in the inner circle of the elite, those who know the inside story, know that the little child sitting on the throne is actually the son of King Char!

I heard that in the palace, every day the child had to pester Char to hold him and coax him to sleep, and in front of the chamberlain, he dared to call Char "father" directly!

I don't even bother to hide it!!

If it weren't for the use of the surname "Klenma" to settle the hearts of many old and young people from the old dynasty and the people, I'm afraid Char would have ordered his son to change his surname back to Char a long time ago!

The Byzantine Empire at the time of the change of power. Odin's neighbors in the north are not untouched.

The current god emperor of the Odin Empire is an old acquaintance of Char.

The Kirkland prince was successfully crowned on the throne, while the other eldest prince Arwen was abolished after a big battle with Char, and he was silent.

His Majesty the Emperor Kirkland originally wanted to take the opportunity to send troops south to bargain for some bargains.

However, it is said that he personally led his troops south to the wildfire field, and before he had time to enter Byzantium, one night, Aunt Sophia personally entered the camp of Odin's army, met the young god emperor, and after some conversation, the Odin people withdrew that night!

Immediately, he sent a credential to the country, stating that the two countries had reconciled and that peace would be longlive.

Char smiled.

This Kirkland, on the other hand, is a very interesting guy.

In fact, Aunt Sophia entered the barracks to see Kirkland that day, and she brought a few pieces of news.

"The Old God Emperor is no longer in this world. ”

"Now Char's realm is already the best in the world!"

"Now all the strong people in the world who are still alive are almost all in that kid's camp. ”

"Kirkland, if you really want to fight, then it's best to think about it first, do you have the ability to beat a dozen strong people by one person, like your Lao Tzu. ”

It can be seen that Kirkland is a very practical guy.

Just after reading the letter sent by Kirkland, Xia Ya accompanied his emperor's son in the palace that night to practice swordsmanship, and then went out of the city and returned to his tulip courtyard in the evening.

Both Nene and Adeline live here. Adeline, in particular, has been pregnant for nine months, and her due date is approaching.

If it weren't for the fear that going out to fight would miss the birth of the child, Char wouldn't have let Aunt Sophia run to scare Kirkland. He directly led his troops to beat him back to the royal city of Odin...... This is more in line with Char's temper.

After lulling Adeline to sleep, Char walked out of the room and saw Nene standing there smiling at her.

Nene had already given birth to a daughter for herself two years ago.

This child inherited Nene's beauty, and also inherited Nene's naughty surname, a little girl, only two years old, began to crawl around in the company of the guards, like a boy.

"Char. ”

"Huh?"

Nene walked up to him, and then a hand came out from behind his back, "What do you think this is?"

Char glanced at it, "Huh?"

It was a blood-stained handkerchief.

"What is this?"

"The boy ran and turned over the trunk of a tree today, and he fell down and suffered a lot. Nene smiled, her eyes gentle: "This is the handkerchief she used to wipe her wounds, I took it back and was about to throw it away, and suddenly I remembered something." ”

"What?"

"You, remember...... In the basement, there is still a door that has never been opened. Nene smiled: "That door can only be opened with the human blood of the common bloodline of the two of us...... If it weren't for the kid's injury and bleeding today, I would have forgotten about it. ”

Char looked at Nene with a strange expression: "This ...... Is it really the blood that children shed when they wrestle? It can't be the blood you take from your children to satisfy their curiosity!"

Nene gritted his teeth and kicked Char hard.

"Okay, it's okay anyway, just go check it out. ”

Char shrugged.

The two of them came to the secret passage underground, and the dark room was again.

The fourth door is inside after the third door on the front opens.

"Just smear the blood on it, right?" Char smiled.

Although there was not much expectation in his heart, Char couldn't help but feel his heart beat a little faster when the bloodstained handkerchief was pressed and the wall finally slowly dissolved again.

Nene, who was next to him, widened his eyes and didn't blink.

Behind the Fourth Door...... The Gate of the Fallen?

What a quirky name.

Inside, it's still a space the size of a cabinet.

This time, only an iron box remained.

Char took out the iron box and opened it, and first saw a piece of parchment, on which was written a line of words.

"This is the last and only thing of that world that has been preserved in my hand, and perhaps, this is the only vestige of that world left to me!"

Char casually flipped through the parchment, only to find a line of scribbled handwriting on the back.

"Grass!!The battery still has electricity, but there is no fucking Internet in this world!!"

Char was confused, where could he understand the meaning of this?

Flipping through the parchment, there was only one thing left under the box.

It seems to be a small black box, not enough to be the length of the palm of a hand, four fingers wide, very thin. One side is smooth like a crystal mirror.

The portions are lightweight.

On the back, it's black shiny.

The only thing that is slightly peculiar is that there is a small silver-white pattern on the back.

Char could see at a glance that this pattern was clearly a ...... that had been bitten Apple.

...... "This is the most precious relic left by the original Grand Duke of Tulip?"

Char fiddled with the essentials for a long time, and angrily threw the thing back into the box.

Then he threw the box directly back into the cabinet in the wall.

After taking over Nene, he walked outside indignantly, "Sleep sleep!,, the relics of the first Duke Tulip...... What bullshit. It's just a useless little broken box. ”

The disgruntled turtle didn't know.

At that moment, he had almost come into contact with another different world in a strange way...... However, life is like this, and sometimes, everything is predestined.

As for the little "black box", it lay quietly in that cabinet.

Waiting, maybe one day in the future, some of Char's descendants will find this thing.

"And electricity...... It's a pity that there is no internet ......"

And also...... Electricity!

- End of the book.

(Don't be in a hurry, there is an "Afterword" behind!) [Postscript]:

Hunting for three years!

It's the longest I've ever written in the industry.

Of course, not because of the most written...... It's really because I'm too wasteful.

Many people think that the pace of the ending is too fast, but in fact, a lot of foreshadowing was left before I broke off for half a year, Adric's death, and the disappearance of Oak and the God Emperor...... In fact, when Char stepped into the Holy Stage, there was actually no suspense in the hunting country.

As for impreggating Queen Daphne.

As early as a year ago, I had already passed the drama in the QQ group, using this child's identity to directly usurp the empire. This idea had been decided a long time ago, and it was never thought of on the spot for the sake of the end.

Having said that, the only thing I regret is the two characters.

One is the Heavenly Attack!

Do you remember the goblin king who called "wife, wife"?

It's a pity that the goblins are engaged in the foundation, and this kind of bridge section is strongly forbidden. Both in the public and on the Internet, I was asked not to write anymore...... So the scene of the Heavenly Attack was cut.

The second character is ...... Dora.

To be honest, the story of Dora and Darwin can be written in tens of thousands of words.

I originally wanted to write about Char and Dora going to the dragon's graveyard together, but I gave up after thinking about it - I feel like too many people have written about it. Moreover, with the appearance of so many strong people around Char - digging a dragon cemetery really can't bring much improvement to Char. So I simply deleted the scene.

There's nothing to write about Dora's ending...... Let's live and die with Char, she's used to it anyway.

Maybe King Char will get tired of it one day and catch a dragon to use as her body - let's make up for it ourselves.

I don't want to add tens of thousands of words for such a small tail.

Oh yes, there's a bug!

Hesting!

The foreshadowing left before. One of the old drunkard's apprentices would die at the hands of another.

Hesting will die because of Char!

I later modified this scene.

No other...... As I wrote, I became more and more fond of this cold-faced and hot-hearted Hesting.

His fate was too tragic, when he was young, he was slaughtered, and his father coaxed him to hide and hide in the shadows, and only ran out alone when the whole family was killed. Then he met the old drunkard and was taken in.

As a Byzantine, he mixed up with the commander of the legion in Odin, the Odin Valkyrie.

Such a heart, such a person...... I really don't want to write him to death in the back!!

This is also a disadvantage of writing online articles!

After writing to the back, many times I will change my mind, the foreshadowing of the original plan, and suddenly I thought later: Why did I think so much at the beginning, it is too **, it must be changed!

But when I look, it's been fucking out for months, and it's hard to get rid of it!

So...... I just had to close my eyes and pretend I didn't write that!

Silent thought in my heart: I didn't write I didn't write I didn't write...... I've basically written all the other general lines very cleanly.

This one, my favorite supporting character, is the number one ...... Well, Todoro.

Especially in the early and middle stages, the magician who would hug Char's thighs and cry would pretend to be a poor and obscene guy. However, in the later period, with the improvement of Todoro's strength, he was no longer so obscene...... Instead, I lost interest in writing about him.

The second one is Ruhr.

Fat people are cunning, but they also have their own persistence and beliefs.

I myself think the best passage I wrote about the fat man was not that rainy night, taking Rodria to launch a suicidal charge and sending the rabbit into the city to become emperor.

I recalled it myself, and I think the most satisfying passage I wrote about the fat man was a scene after the destruction of the city of Osgilia: the fat man took a group of veterans to fight guerrillas in the city, and he lurked in the dilapidated city alone, quietly taking a mouthful of snow and slowly melting it in his mouth...... A cunning warrior.

Well, that's it.

As for Adric...... All I can say is that if I am a son, I don't want to have such a father. Because he doesn't value family affection, he is dedicated to the public.

If you're a friend...... I don't want that kind of friend. Because he does not value personal friendship, he is upright and strong.

But if we are a small citizen, we all wish that there was such a general in our country!

Finally, let's talk about Char's turtle.

I haven't written the surname of the turtle, so I don't know if it's appropriate.

Actually, I'm a dark-bellied and more Sven type.

So, in fact, when I write the surname of the turtle, I write it quite distorted.

Is the most satisfying surname Ge Guanghui...... It's the part where the dragon's blood wipes the crotch, and I think it fits the bastard's surname very well.

He...... Really dry out!

In fact. The turtle is a tragic figure.

It was lonely at the beginning, and his adoptive father died.

Later, he found his biological mother, only to recognize each other, and his biological mother also hung up (I'm guilty!) Lover, Adeline is his favorite, but unfortunately in the end he had to kill Adeline's brother Rabbit Emperor. The relationship between the two will definitely leave a shadow.

As for Daiffany, I think it's a relationship triggered by passion - it's all because the moonlight is too beautiful that night, and you're too gentle.

And the inner ...... I have always thought that Nene really loves the turtle, but whether the turtle really loves Nene in the end, I'm afraid he doesn't know in his own heart. Perhaps, it is a kind of impure love mixed with emotion, a sense of responsibility, and "righteousness".

But it doesn't matter, Nene is a girl with thick lines, and if she can be with Char, the eldest lady is already very happy and satisfied.

Well, the journey of the hunting country is here, although I have been reluctant to give up the past three years, but there is no feast in the world.
