Chapter 23: Awakening (Part I)

The Tower of the End, the House of Inheritance, the Library of Truth. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

It's a huge, friendless warehouse, and the red light of the sunset shines through the roof of the original bigolite glass and shines on the rows of giant bookshelves, and the books and records made of various materials are shining.

"Can you be serious?"

A thin, handsome middle-aged man with short gray hair stood behind a row of huge bookshelves with an inextinguishable lamp, looking disapprovingly at the other side of the bookshelf.

There was a sickly blonde young man sitting on a bookshelf.

The second-level security officer of Eternal Star City, Cohen Karabiyan, looked up with a tired look and looked at his teacher, Jedi Tafner.

The vigilant officer raised his hand and said:

"Hey, I asked someone to take a month's vacation, and it took seven days to get to the Tower of the End without stopping!"

"I didn't even make up for it, I was pulled over by you!"

"I ate two loaves of bread in between!"

Cohen slapped his stomach weakly and protested weakly:

"You care about the lives of the students, right?"

His teacher, a middle-aged man, Jedi Tafner, snorted, put down the lamp, and picked up another book without paying attention: "You yourself proposed to refer to the Inheritor's Texts...... You know Shao won't agree - the old man of the Far East who strictly abides by the rules. I can only hurry up and come with you while he is away. ”

Thinking of Master Shao, one of the inheritors, and his temper, Cohen leaned against the bookshelf behind him, feeling that he really couldn't arouse his interest in finding books.

He said helplessly: "Shao ...... Didn't he give up his qualifications to inherit the First Sword Sect in the Far East and come to the Tower of End? I thought he wouldn't be so conservative and rigid if he did something like that......"

"How do I know, Shao's inheritance has all kinds of strange rules, anyway, I still haven't understood the operating rules of their "sects" - if we are from the Far Eastern Sword Sect, then you, as a student, should kowtow respectfully to me as soon as you enter the door,"

"If you are disrespectful to me...... Like this......"

Jedi glared at Cohen fiercely, "I can abolish your swordsman!"

Cohen rolled his eyes.

"Did you find any connection between the Sword of Calamity and the Blood Vials?" the vigilant officer asked listlessly.

"No, it's still the stuff you and I know," Jedi thrust back into his hand with the ancient parchment book in his hand, "because I'm very inefficient!

Cohen pretended not to hear the latter words, and muttered, "Well, then you might as well tell me what is the attitude of the Tower towards those 'Swords of Calamity' now?

Jedi stopped what he was doing, looked at his student, and was silent for a long time.

He finally sighed, "Okay, but if you want to know, then you have to join our secret group." ”

"Secret group?" Cohen turned his head curiously.

"To put it simply, it's a small group of people in the Tower of Finishes who have been given a special mission to fight against the Sword of Finish's lineage, the 'Sword of Calamity' outside the Tower. ”

"I'll join!" Cohen's eyes lit up!

He had to join.

It's important to learn more about the Sword of Calamity, about the power of the furious end.

Even if...... For Raphael and Miranda.

He secretly clenched his fists.

"So refreshing?" said Jeddy in surprise, then smiled happily, "Okay, there are Chartier and me in this group, and now you are one more." ”

Cohen opened his mouth wide.

"You-there are only three of us?"

"Group of three ......"

"To fight against the Sword of Calamity?"

Cohen looked at the teacher in disbelief with a pit on his face, "Are you kidding?"

"What's wrong with the three of them! We're a secret group after allβ€”but we have an official name!" said Jedi with a thigh on the thigh, looking inscrutable.

"Shao called us 'the purges.' ”

Cohen's expression froze.

Eliminate?

Purge the traitors?

Narafael he ......

"But Chartier thinks that according to the blood debt committed by Crassus, it is better to use the 'Avengers'......"

Jedi leaned forward and looked serious: "And I think we should call ...... according to the importance of our mission."

Cohen subconsciously wanted to cover his ears, but Jedi had already spat out the words:

"Kill Crassus, Heavy Light, Finish Tower, Rexing the Transcendent Sword, and save Errol's Jedi Squad!"

Cohen looked at his teacher with disdain.

"Haha, I'm kidding!

Seeing Cohen's poop-eating expression, Jedi laughed and patted him on the shoulder, but then sighed.

"But unfortunately, until now, we didn't know much about that furious finishing power," Jedi said disappointedly, "After all, what we feel when we are against them is not the full picture of their finishing power. ”

Cohen also solemnized: "There is no result?"

Jedi looked at his student, and after a few seconds, he pursed his lips and said seriously, "No, there are still results." At least we know that the tyrannical and crazy finishing power that began with Crassus, the Sword of Calamity, ......"

"Actually, it's to imitate the ancients, a mysterious and terrifying power. ”

――――――――

"Look, Selene, why don't we sit down and have a good talk?" Tails said with a smile as he looked at a desperate Koterina, and a smug Serena, "There doesn't have to be so violent. ”

"Oh yes......"

Serena raised an eyebrow and threw Kotrina out.

"Bang!"

The latter crashed into a tree not far away and struggled to raise his head.

Serena walked towards Tails with a smile.

"Let it out?" Serena looked at the black coffin and smiled seductively, "How? kick it with your legs?"

Tails' heart was beating irrepressibly.

Calm down.

At least she let go of Corterina.

This is the only chance.

I have to grasp it.

"The Black Coffin of the Night can only be opened with the key that the monarch carries with him, plus the blood of Corleone's direct members," Serena laughed, "That is, the blood of me and Cortrina." ”

In the distance, Koterina struggled to raise her head and looked unwillingly to this side.

Her limbs were healing, but slowly.

Let alone being born again.

This sisterhood fights...... She thought desperately: there was no hope of turning the tables.

Really?

Tails took a deep breath, "Lolana and they must have told you how Rolf and I escaped from the dungeon of Vine Manor, right?"

Serena narrowed her eyes.

"I have a special ability," Tails shuddered, trying to weave his story and make it seem more believable, "to break all the shackles...... Why don't I try it on this coffin?"

Tails felt the sharp fragment of wood in his hand behind his back, and his heart was worried.

He couldn't cut the rope, but ......

Cut yourself, it should be fine.

Although the side effects of that power ...... It may be a bit big.

It's just that without the assistance of his hands, can his "loss of control" still work?

Tails smiled bitterly in his heart: I can only try to "kill you with my eyes".

Serena's steps got closer: "It turned out to be your ability." ”

"But why do you think I'm tying your hands?" Serena looked down and laughed coldly, "I asked Lorana as I was, your ability must cut out blood before it can be activated!"

"This is a bolt for you, Your Highness Tails. She said softly.

Tails was shocked.

She...... Have you noticed this a long time ago?

Serena continued to walk closer.

"Far enough!" Tails shouted, "Don't come any closer!"

He had calculated that at this distance, even if Serena flashed, it would take at least a second or more.

Enough for him to face the coffin...... Start that.

"I've got a piece of wood in my hand," Tails said, turning sideways to reveal a piece of wood and turning it back cautiously, gasping slightly, "enough for me to cut my own hand!"

"Do you really want to meet that magician?" he kicked the black coffin behind him, "Do you want me to knock on the door for you first?"

A chill appeared in Serena's eyes.

This little ghost.

Are you betting on whether I dare to take a risk?

"Dear Tails!"

In Tails' sight, Serena stood still, suddenly smiled, and spread her hands: "You must have misunderstood!"

"I didn't mean to hurt you at all. ”

"To me, a living heir to the stars is more useful than a dead heir to the stars, isn't it. ”

"We have a pact: with each other's help, you will one day be crowned king, and I will be reinstated. ”

"Have you forgotten, I still have a marriage contract. ”

Tails frowned.

This old witch.

Ugly face woman.

"Let's join forces!" The navies of your East China Sea Territory and the South Coast Territory, coupled with our natural geographical advantage in Wanghai Cliff, can each base the east and west coasts to end the southern sea rich in eternal oil," Serena stretched out her right hand and slowly clenched her fist: "It will become the inland sea of the Starry Night Alliance." ”

"The stars and the night, the benefits are shared, each other is to help each other, to deter the opponents on their respective continents, your Exter and Commas, our Nights and Humble," Serena looked straight at Tails, "This is what I originally thought. ”

"Don't believe her!" Corterina, who was in the distance, spat out a mouthful of blood and said hatefully: "Only the craziest demon dares to ally with this *** with a heart like a femme fatale!"

"Boom!"

Serena smiled coldly and threw a very fast snowball into the stunner.

Tails took a deep breath.

Selina continued with a blank face, "I know that you are not your average seven-year-old, you have maturity and wisdom beyond this age, and you know that my ideas are feasible. ”

She held out her hand to Tails: "We are allies. ”

Tails lowered his head.

Ally.

Alas.

"You wanted to kill me before. Tails frowned.

"It's to distract my sister and finally defeat her," Serena smiled, "It's a pleasure to work with." ”

But Tails looked up slightly, shaking his head slightly.

"CΓ©line, this is the last time I'll call you that. ”

Serena's face changed.

"That's the end of the deception," Tails sighed, "you don't see me as an ally at all...... Ugly face woman. ”

Serena's gaze flickered.

"The first time we met, your words were full of lies - you said that you were the true heir of House Corleone, the rightful and legitimate ruler of the Hill of Pain. ”

"I'm not lying about that. Serena blinked her big seductive eyes, but Tails, who was impressed by her 'other side', was unmoved.

"I am indeed the Nightwing Monarch, the first in line to the throne of His Majesty Lanley Corleone. Serena grinned, stretched out her index finger to wipe a trace of blood from her cheek, and then put it in her mouth and sucked.

This action makes her more seductive and bewitching.

Tails was secretly anxious: how long could it be delayed?

What about Edda?

With Selene's speed, there is only one chance to use "Out of Control", and the effect is uncertain.

This hole card must not be used until the last moment.

"But you didn't mention the fact that you killed the previous king," Tails shook his head, "that is, you are not a pretender to the throne who has failed to compete for the throne, but a repeat offender who killed the monarch's father, and the crime is unforgivable, and everyone will be punished." ”

Serena's smiling eyes began to freeze.

"Even if you become strong, I am afraid that no one in the Night Realm will support your coronation. ”

Tails looked up at Serena and said word by word:

"There's no way you're going to reset at all. ”

The sun is about to set.

There was silence in the snow.

Serena looked at him and didn't look away for a long, long time.

"I've had enough of you," Serena's smile vanished, and her voice was extremely cold, "self-righteous short-lived." ”

"You're right. ”

"Even if I'm here to kill Koterina. ”

"The legions of the Holy Blood who are loyal to her, including the warriors, behind the Castillan, Sullivan, Lori Roa, and those clans who covet the throne of the Sea of Blood, will not be able to crown me. ”

"So, your real enemies are the opponents of almost all of the Night Realm. Tails closed his eyes tightly and exhaled:

"So, you need the power of a nation to destroy those opponents that you can't match. ”

"Originally, I only wanted to use your strength to intercept Corterina, but the assassination of the Exter Mission has given me a great revelation," Serena, whose face was frosty, nodded: "The heir died, triggering a war between countries." ”

"After all, the King of the Stars has made a sacred oath in public, and if you die, the one who avenges you...... It's the next king. ”

Tails sighed.

"The next heir of the stars died in the shameless volley of the Queen of Night, who disappeared for no apparent reason," Serena shook her head and sighed, "How many careerists do you guess will attack the Night Realm at all costs, at least make a relevant oath, just for the throne of the stars?"

"After all, it only takes a week to cross the Sea of End from the southern shore of the stars to the Land of Night. ”

"War will cleanse the opponents of the Blood Legion and give me a more obedient Night Realm," Serena took a fanatical step, "and the true Heir of Corleone will turn the tide at the last moment." ”

"So that's the purpose of the Alliance, to purge your opponents by the hand of the stars," Tails looked at Serena's face and said quietly, "The Starry Night Alliance is completely a hoax. ”

"You don't understand, childish imp," Serena sneered, "the alliance is for the enemy. ”

Tails glanced at Koterina, who had fainted.

"No," Serena said coldly, "I mean, ally yourself with your enemy and betray him at a critical moment." ”

"Betrayal is the true meaning of the alliance. ”

Tails frowned deeply.

I see, this is the logic of her survival.

The Starry Night Alliance, Tails' first diplomacy in his life, has failed completely.

In the days that followed, when Tails sat at the negotiating table countless times, he couldn't help but think of this scene, and at the same time vigilantly remembered "the true meaning of the alliance".

Many historians are amazed at how the Starry Night Alliance was so strong between two incompatible races at that time, but only a few know that the First Starry Night Alliance lasted just over a month before it failed.

Sure enough, a cute, capable, arrogant and naΓ―ve Lori vampire who had lived for hundreds of years suddenly popped up, with red eyes and silver hair, shouting at me angrily Brother and rushing to marry me. Tails sighed:

"This routine...... It's me thinking too much!"

He bowed his head lonely: "This is not Xiao Baiwen's world." (To be continued.) )
