Volume I: The Golden Pocket Watch Chapter 83: The Crimson Gate
South African mountains, Rust Plains, a winter wheat field!
The Illusory Gate shattered, and the scarlet eyes still flickered in the dim sky, and it took about dozens of seconds before they slowly faded.
"Voyeuristic eyes? A peeping eye on one of the legendary 18 magical items? Candace couldn't help but mutter, but when he looked at the flesh and blood corpses on the ground covered with eyes, he made up his guess.
"Candace, a native of Florence, a god who holds the projection of Adam, is now the attending doctor in the Eighth Asylum of the Hidden Organization, am I right?" The lady said it as if she were copying the text.
"You're a god too, aren't you? I feel the breath of another hidden being from you, let me guess, you are a descendant of the god of war? Candace tilted his head, his eyes mixed with unusual colors.
"Descendants of the God of War...... Someone from the Sodros family? ”
A deep voice came from Octavian's throat, and he had just gotten rid of his terrifying whispers when he heard the bombshell news that the Sodros family had appeared.
As a knight family active in the Far North Continent at the beginning of the Third Age, the Sodros family has the purest blood of the god of war flowing in their bodies, and is famous for their incomparable one-handed swordsmanship.
It's a pity that in that period of ancient history, which was covered by a thick black fog, the Sodros family, like the Capet family in the Arctic Continent, the Pieste family in the Rum continent, the Weitbach family, the Zarathu family, the Medici family and the Giger family in the Federas continent, were wiped out in a certain period of time, and only a few expatriates remained.
An ancient scholar once tried to find out the truth of that history, but in the end, he was polluted by the unknown and fell out of control into a monster with a pitch-black body.
"She is a descendant of the House of Sodros, but she wears the Crimson Holy Emblem of the rank of Bishop of Hornavich, could it be that the God of War and the God of Sleep and Crimson are two gods...... Already in the Union? ”
"Every time the gods stand in line, there are inextricable connections behind them, and it also indicates that something big will happen in the future."
Edward said to herself, she ruffled her languid blonde hair and fixed her gaze on Diana not far away.
"You're Diana, Patient 7 in 'Asylum No. 8', the one with Alice's Roaming Syndrome?"
Diana turned her head and looked at Edwarda without saying a word.
"Why are you staring at that young man? As far as I know, your organization doesn't have a specific faith, so there is no such thing as an oracle. ”
"It's hard for me to understand that an organization that doesn't have an oracle, or doesn't even believe in that being, would take action against the same person one after another, and even send out demigods."
Octavian said indifferently, for this kind of inexplicable targeted action, it is very rare in a secret organization, and this kind of thing has happened twice in succession, which is even more weird!
"In order to avoid this incident once again, on behalf of Honavich Church Ordinance, those who assassinate church personnel without cause will have the right to contain and supervise."
"Mr. Candace ...... Oh no, it's Mr. God's Favor, please take a trip too, Her Majesty Michelle needs to see you. ”
The lady said indifferently, lying in the wheat field not far away, Diana, who was covered with knife wounds all over her body, couldn't help but become hideous when she heard the containment: "Don't you think, I won't let you succeed!" ”
"Diana!" Candace walked over, shook his head, and motioned not to resist.
"But the teacher? They even want you to contain you......" Diana looked up with a delicate half-race face, her eyes full of blood-red meridians, as if she was unwilling.
"Under the eye of voyeurism, unless it is a land angel, it is impossible to escape by the person of the Holy One alone."
Candace walked up to the lady and said with a slight change in his expression:
"He wants to know about Eve, the King of Angels, right?"
........
Federal Mountains, the main peak of St. Hornavich!
A huge lake was crowded with young men and women.
"All line up, be careful not to push, start counting after the lineup, and now we are ready to enter Hornavich University!"
Gray pointed to the young freshmen who were fighting with each other on the shore and said loudly, these sons and daughters who grew up in the royal capital are a little too lively.
Venason and Ron consciously lined up, and just as they were about to count the numbers, Lilith and Carl suddenly squeezed through the crowd and lined up behind Vinason.
"Hi sir, my name is Lilith Moore, and this is Carl Horday, excuse me...... Can we rank here? ”
No, she's really here, huh...... I can't be nervous, although I am ashamed, but Miss "County Lord" should not know that I am Mr. Old.
Venason recalled his role in the old royal court, his face suddenly became hot, and he quickly skimmed his face, this was his instinctive reaction, the main reason was that he knew very well that Miss "County Lord" was a priest of the "Water Soul" path.
This path has a very tricky supernatural power, "Eyes! If she catches her attention, it is easy for her to open her eyes and interpret the secret of the essence from the changes in her expression and body language aura.
In a flash of thought, Venason quickly turned his head back and turned around, showing his trademark slight smile towards Miss "County Lord".
"Yes, no problem."
Just now directly dodge, the problem is more obvious, it is better to be bold directly, anyway, Miss County Lord is also beautiful enough, a gentleman, when meeting an unusually beautiful lady, it should be normal to take a few more looks.
"Thank you!"
Lilith smiled in response, but at the same time, in her mind, she sensed the abnormality of the gentleman in front of her.
My previous guess was completely correct, under the wrapping of the water soul power, my appearance and presence should be extremely hidden, and he was able to focus his attention on me.
For Lilith, it was normal to be stared at by strangers without the effect of the supernatural power of the Water Soul card, and she had encountered too many similar situations.
For example, after some aristocratic children saw her at the banquet, they would indeed subconsciously turn their heads, revealing an intoxicated reaction.
But the problem also appears here, the situation that can occur in the past is without any disguise, and now with the blessing of the extraordinary power of the water soul card, he looked away at first, and then turned his gaze back, the performance is too strange......
What is he hiding? Is it your own supernatural power? Still is......
With such a question and a shallow smile, Lilith crossed her gaze and continued to follow Ron in front of her, greeting the other freshmen who were clustered together.
Venason was secretly relieved to see that Miss "County Lord" didn't pay attention to herself anymore.
"Wait a minute, I'm with Miss County Lord...... No, it should be Miss Lilith, yes, that's right, I am now classmates with Miss Lilith, not Mr. Old and Miss County Lord, who are above the royal court, and play the role of a good classmate, and can't be seen by her 'spirit eyes'. ”
"But Miss 'County Lord' is indeed a noble lady, with pale blonde hair, crimson pupils, and few features, I remember that vampires seem to be this kind of characteristic, well, there are vampires in this world, right?"
In the midst of his thoughts, Venason's spiritual intuition was suddenly touched, and he always felt that he was being watched by someone, and he was busy following the feeling of spiritual feedback, and glanced around.
Standing behind Lilith, Carl Horredday, in a tweed coat, a half-height velvet top hat, and a gold-silk cane, was looking at him.
"Are you all lined up?" Gray shouted again.
...... Venason looked at Carl, who had been staring at him, and for a moment he didn't know whether to cry or laugh.
After a few seconds, he couldn't help but say hello:
"Hello! Mr. Horedi. ”
"Hello, Mr. van der Rohe." Staring –
Uh, what a glaring stare, and Vinason was uncomfortable being stared at.
In any case, at present, Mr. Hordry and Miss "County Lord" are quite kind, and they are easy to get along with, without the usual domineering feeling of nobles...... Venason grunted as he straightened up, his gaze returning to the lake that reflected Hornavich University.
At this time, Gray stood at the junction of the lake and the ground, and shouted, "Now on..... Go ahead! ”
As soon as the words fell, the surface of the mirror-like lake suddenly rippled, and then the water was removed from the left and right, and sections of ancient stone gray masonry staircases appeared in front of him.
Everyone opened their mouths wide and stared at the huge castle that towered into the sky beneath the lake.
"My crimson god, this is a miracle."
"It's amazing, it's magical, I'm sure I'm not dreaming?"
"Extraordinary power, great extraordinary power."
Gray nodded in satisfaction, the exclamation of the freshmen was always the most pleasant at this time of year.
"Let's go in now, mainly the distance between the front and back, and the foot!"
As the first line of freshmen made their way up the stairs, Gray shouted.
Everyone consciously stepped on the steps, and Venason also walked up with the team, the stone steps were covered with a layer of water stains similar to slippery slime, and the soles of the feet were easily slippery, and many freshmen in front of them had already fallen to the ground, causing the people behind to laugh.
Venason wrapped himself with mental power, excellent mental power made the body abnormally balanced, Lilith has the blessing of the water soul card, and she is like a fish in water in this slippery place.
Ron held Vinason's shoulders and moved forward little by little, and Carl didn't seem to care about the delicate slime, as if he were walking on the ground.
Looking at it, only a few of the hundreds of freshmen could stand on it.
They followed the slippery stone staircase, followed Gray's direction, climbed the stone staircase and turned again, until they reached a gravel and small cobblestone floor in the shadow of the castle, where the grand stone vermilion gate appeared before everyone.
"Thank the gods for their favor!" Ron shouted in ecstasy with his arms outstretched.
"Is this Hornavich University?" Lilith looked up at the towering spire of the castle, and felt a little dizzy for a while.
"Yes, step through this crimson door, and inside is St. Hornavich University."
