Chapter 658: The Mystery of the Old Emperor of the Night Country
"Any thoughts?"
"It's a curse."
Standing on the edge of a field of scorched earth, Dune questioned Nerossta at the end of the inspection, to which Nerosta replied.
This is the burned field of the Loki villagers, and not far away there is a demolished livestock shed where the carcasses of cattle and sheep can be found.
The scene is indeed tragic, and in this case, the Rockies only need the night village residents over there to apologize, which can be said to be reasonable enough in a sense.
Or rather, I'm afraid they also know that destruction on this scale is simply impossible for ordinary people to do quietly.
As for why he knew that he didn't want the people of the night village to apologize, he probably just couldn't be angry.
After all, the murderer can't be found, and the murderer who can do this kind of thing is not something that ordinary villagers can help, and they have nowhere to spread their anger but rely on the night villagers on the other side of the bank who are confused.
"Burned by the flames impregnated by the curse, this land will be left unusable for a long time." Nerosta shook her head.
"You helped them out." Dune clapped his hands.
"This ...... May point time. Nerosta hesitated, and with a little kindness, he did want to help.
After all, such a large field is the lifeblood of many people in the village in this era. Autumn is approaching, there is no more harvest here, and the imminent cold winter combined with hunger will take many lives.
However, if it takes time, it will be delayed again, and at present, because of the strange temper of the dunes, they have been delayed for a long time.
AdorΓ©'s complexion was not very good-looking.
As a person who came out of a rural village, in his eyes, the city is rich but hypocritical, and the old village is ugly, stupid and poor, but that is true. It can be regarded as a beautification of memories.
How many people would have to starve to death in such a large field.
"Anyway, if you curse now, the food won't grow in the short term, and someone will still starve to death this year." Sand Dune didn't say yes or no, got up from the stone on the side of the road, and walked away.
It didn't seem like an encouragement to Nerosta, but it did motivate him.
If there is no harvest in a year, many people will starve to death, so what will happen if there is no harvest after that?
"Mr. Adore, there are more things to do, I hope you can help me."
"Okay." Adore had no doubts and answered directly.
β¦β¦
The sand dunes walked all the way up the mountain, standing halfway up the mountain and watching the situation below.
Here you can clearly see the burned field below, and you can see the whole picture more realistically.
Not only the fields, but also the nearby mountains and forests were also burned down extensively.
Destruction is not an end.
"Nerosta's learning is still a little worse, hiding his whereabouts and drawing life force by the way is probably the purpose of the other party, curses are the most chaotic type of witchcraft, and it is the most convenient to use to confuse the public." In his mind, the director said after seeing the situation here.
"Don't be too harsh on a person who has been standing still for so many years, isn't this character quite cute?"
"We're not talking about the same thing."
"It's all good."
Dune pulls out the blood map, unfolds it, and touches a seemingly unnecessary spot of blood in a corner. The map shook violently for a moment, and the blood spot outlined a mouth in the corner of the map.
"Huh? Mr. Commander, did you have a good trip? Red's gentle voice rang out, refreshing.
"It's very pleasant, it's interesting, the customs of this world are not bad."
"It's good to be happy, but the scenery of this world has nothing to do with me. After all, I'm not like Mr. Demon Lord and Shang Yang, who carries the world on his shoulders. β
"It's not good for them to put pressure on themselves, and so are you, don't take too much care of yourself when it's time to retire, even if there is an accident later, you can try to let me deal with it this time." Dune said. Rhett has a criminal record, it's hard to say.
"Haha." Red laughed crisply.
"Isn't your time too tight over there? I seem to have been walking slowly for a long time. Seeing Red's attitude, Dune pursed his lips and changed the subject without saying much.
"Ah, nothing. Although there have been a lot of people hanging around recently, it is not a surprise to have me here. β
"Do you know about Merlin Eurolin?"
"That's the legendary wizard I've been talking about, have you heard of it during this time?"
"Well, yes, learned something."
Dune shared all of his experiences with Red.
After hearing this, Red first laughed and said, "Mr. Commander's experience is really rich." Then he returned to the topic, "The place where I am now and Mr. Commander's guess are correct, it is the alien space that Merlin has set up for his people. In fact, in order to break the seal of this alien space, I studied it for a while, and then made some unexpected discoveries. β
"This serendipitous discovery is what you think can be used as a test subject for the function of Earth Fragments?"
"Yes."
"Oh roar, it's quite a chicken thief, if I didn't say it at this time, would you want to surprise me in person?"
"Haha, it's a pity that it was exposed in advance." Although it was exposed, Red still looked very happy.
Dune nodded, "That's fine." However, it is still necessary to pay attention to the changes in the Sunrise Kingdom here, the Sunrise King is so fanfare, and he may also have thoughts about Merlin's legacy. β
"It doesn't have to be just the Sunrise King. After listening to Mr. Captain, I asked Kira and Connell to help me investigate what had happened outside for the years. The death of the Old Emperor of Nightland may be suspicious. β
"That guy isn't dead, is it?"
The Sunrise King can become a master of witchcraft without saying a word, and it seems unlikely that the old emperor of the night country who has been tinkering with witchcraft for a long time has no follow-up at all.
"It's true that the old emperor of the night country is indeed dead, and as you said, Mr. Commander, there is a high probability that he has some kind of resurrection backhand."
Rhett's tone was a little heavier: "After Kira and Cannai's investigation, it was pointed out that the Old Emperor of the Night Country is actually a half-blood. The royal family of Nighttown was originally controlled by a blood clan, and the young people in the royal family regularly sent excellent child descendants to those vampires, and under the control of the blood clan, they were transformed into degraded species that did not have the ability to absorb blood on their own, and could only survive by sucking the blood of the original transformer. β
"That old emperor is such a degraded blood clan?"
"He's got a bit of a complication." Rhett's tone is somewhat odd.
"The old emperor and the blood clan who transformed him fell in love again and again, and I can't tell who secretly fell in love first, but the blood clan must have been the first to play with fire. One of the main reasons why the degraded bloodline can't absorb blood is because the blood witch spell mark engraved on the body is a sub-mark, and the blood power given is incomplete. β
"One, in this way, you can't escape the chain collapse when Azula dies." Dune froze.
"That's right, but when the chain collapse of the blood mark involves different blood clans, after my in-depth research, I found that it was actually the subordinate blood mark that was distributed to a certain extent and then caused the collapse. The Blood Seal will be strengthened as the Blood Clan becomes stronger, so no Bloodline related to it can escape. But the sub-blood mark that the blood clan that controls the royal family of Night Country somehow researched has stuck a subtle loophole. β
After Rhett paused, he directly said the method: "The blood seal of the child and mother is exchanged for blood." β
The director poked his head directly out of the neck of the sand dune, and said with some surprise: "Can you still play like this?" β
This picture is a little scary, but fortunately Rhett shouldn't be able to see this side.
"What?" Dune's brain didn't turn.
"To put it simply, when the chain collapse comes, it will instantly withstand the corresponding degree of collapse according to the strength of the blood seal, and the normal blood clan is completely unable to resist the blood drying up and dying on the spot. But this blood seal method of the Ghost Talent Blood Clan loosened the circulation of blood power between the two individuals. The sub-blood seal was born for control, and the half-blood clan connected to it was not much stronger than ordinary people, it was very weak, and the collapse caused by it would not be much stronger. β
"Then, if he hides behind the sub-blood seal when the collapse happens, but he gets a blood power far beyond the matching of the sub-blood seal, then the collapse that can easily eliminate the weak half-blood clan will not be able to eliminate an orthodox great vampire."
After the director finished speaking, Red said: "Yes, the blood clan that transformed the old emperor gave their blood to the old emperor at the last moment, and they dried up and died, but the old emperor relied on the strong blood power from his lover to survive the mismatched chain collapse. In a sense, his lover saved him from this catastrophe. Of course, this process is not without a price, his body is already in conflict with that powerful force, and after gaining the strength, he will suffer the blow of collapse without adapting, and I am afraid that even if he survives, there will be no strength left. β
"It can't be said that if he adapts to the blood given by his lover in advance, then his sub-blood seal will also quickly convert to the orthodox blood seal, and the collapse he eats will be complete at that time, and he will not survive." The director said from another angle.
Red thought for a moment: "It makes sense, but there is no way to do it. β
Dune takes a bite of the banana and then takes out another one and stuffs it into the supervisor's mouth.
"The Old Emperor of the Night Country is like this, there is a high probability that he has become the last survivor of the Azula bloodline by mistake, and his dedication to witchcraft in the last years of his reign probably came from this, and when he realized that these terrible creatures such as vampires were actually transformed from witchcraft, it is not surprising that he did not hesitate to hope for this at the time." Rhett Road.
"You just said that the suspicion of the death of the old emperor after the defeat of the Night Country is related to his half-blood status?" Dune asked.
"Yes, after the fall of the Old Emperor of Nighttown, although the escape route chosen is unknown, the direction is Loki's side."
