Chapter 1,416 Blood Princess
(I came back from Guangzhou, and I haven’t stopped updating for so many days during the annual meeting! What a blessing do you think this is! In addition, after being illuminated by the great God’s radiance, I feel that I have no sadness, no joy, and my heart has calmed down. I will update myself and work hard in the future. Finally, I will Another note: I recognize many names at the annual meeting, but I can’t match any of them. Being face-blind is really stressful.)
While waiting for Qianqian to come back, Bingtis and I were studying what happened in this world back then.
Bingtis put the several banned books she had "shunned" yesterday and the church books she had just bought in the fortress on the table, summarizing the information with a very serious expression: "According to what we just heard, , now it is certain that there are at least four people who are at the core of the incident: Zoya of the Dragon Clan, the Human Pope Edwinsa, the Dark Moon Lord on the moon, and a mysterious person called the "Blood Princess". Among them, Zoya is this The oldest dragon on the planet, and also the ruler of the Dragon Clan, but the situation of the Dragon Clan looks bad. According to the little dragon girl, it seems that the dragons in this world have ceased to exist in name only - we will study this matter later."
"The second key guy is the old pope. The dragon girl calls him Edwinsa. However, the name of the pope that I found out from other channels is not this. Obviously, the pope does not use his real name now. I, on the other hand, I found the words Edwinsa somewhere else," Bingtis said, opening the Goddess Cult Bible that she had roughly turned over, and pointed to one of the pages to show me, " This is the name of the pope during the First Dark Moon War: Edwinsa Adurien, whose race is human. Due to his outstanding achievements, this mortal's name was written in the divine book, and he was declared to have entered the divine body as a demigod. The goddess who serves the country. The divine canon records that the pope lived for two hundred years - probably later, the old man felt that if he lived any longer, he would be regarded as a living god and steal the spotlight from the goddess, so he finally made up his mind on the 100th anniversary of the Dark Moon people's exile. Hang up. Every subsequent pope has a different name, and of course the image should be different, but now it seems that each of them is Edwinsa - an ancient person who has been reincarnated dozens of times."
After thinking about it for a while, I always felt that there was something wrong with this method of reincarnation, and finally found the bug: "Hey, you said it doesn't take time for his reincarnation? He died before he was born. Or he was born before he grew up. What to do with time?”
Bingtis glanced at me dissatisfied: "You ask me who to ask? Anyway, he must have a way. Either he prepared the reincarnation body before he died, or he arranged for someone to take over temporarily during the gap. When it comes to the church, a person like this won’t be able to handle such a small thing. Now let’s talk about the third person, the Dark Moon Lord—this guy is the one with the biggest black mist.”
"The Dark Moon Lord, according to the church, is the king of the mountain barbarians who provoked the racial war. Later, he became an immortal demon due to excessive use of black magic." I recalled what Ron told me, "It is said that he He is resurrected every few hundred years, and every time he is resurrected, it is when the Dark Moon invades the earth. I thought this person was quite strange at first: he had been waiting for his resurrection for hundreds of years, just to come to the earth and let the goddess kill him instantly. Lost, now it seems that the process of his resurrection and sleeping is completely a pre-arranged drama. And whether this Dark Moon Lord is good or evil has to be completely subverted. "
Bingtis subconsciously tapped a book on the table with his fingers: "According to the conversation between Zoya and Edwinsa, the Dark Moon Lord is currently in a deep sleep period, which means that except for the 'discussed' point, , what is recorded in the sacred book is correct. Lord Dark Moon will indeed wake up only once every few hundred years, and then come to the ground and be cut off by the goddess with a knife. If this is a show, then their performance cost is high enough. "
"The last one is the Blood Princess..." I put aside the matter of Lord Dark Moon and mentioned the last one in the group of four, "We know the least about this one. We have never heard of Dark Moon Lord before. There is a person called the Blood Princess. Now we only know her name, and it may not be her real name."
"You can go ask those three iron knights," Bingtis said casually. "After all, what we can see from these books is limited. Some things should only be passed down by local people. Now I am the most curious. Or what exactly did these four people do back then... If what I heard today is true, then each of them has changed the world. It can even be said that the current situation of the planet was shaped by the four of them. They look like they should They were partners, but now they acted as hostile forces in pairs. The Pope and the Dragon Girl organized a resistance war on the ground. Lord Dark Moon and Princess Blood organized invasions again and again on the moon. This is definitely a stage where human lives are taken seriously. It's a drama. But they seem to have a reason for doing this. What did the dragon girl say? Saving the world...this is not something ordinary people dare to say. "
"It's a pity that the relevant records can't be found," I sighed with regret. "They definitely don't want people to know what they did back then. Even the 'banned books' you found don't have any information about these four people."
At this time, the tent door was suddenly opened by someone, and Qian Qian came in humming a strange tune with the same joy as always. I raised my head and glanced at this girl who was full of talents: "What are you still doing?" Can you really talk to that facially paralyzed dragon girl for such a long time?"
Pandora hit my waist with a horizontal headbutt without changing his expression: This little girl also knew that she had been shot.
"Well," Qian Qian happily sat down next to me, "Actually, she's pretty easy to deal with, but she just doesn't like to talk."
Being able to evaluate a stranger with iceberg and facial paralysis as "very easy to deal with" upon first contact, Qianqian's ability is really hard to imitate. Lin Xue looked at her curiously: "Then what did you talk to her about? Did you get any information?"
"We were just chatting, and we found out a lot of things," Qianqian clapped her fingers, "Now I know that Suoya likes spicy food and doesn't like sweet food. Her favorite color is purple. She is 1.73 meters tall. , likes to turn to the right side when sleeping. I bought the shoes in the city of Moresa. The owner of the shoe seller is a fat man. The owner’s second cousin’s third uncle’s brother is called Paul. In addition, Zoya’s bust...oh, I won’t talk about this anymore, Arjun, you are not suitable to listen to this...Why are you all looking at me?"
Except for Pandora, who was pretending to be a porcelain doll with no expression on her face, all of us stared at this magical girl dumbfounded. I held Qian Qian's paws excitedly: "Girl, if you have a little more imagination, Just a little smaller. You can definitely work as an agent and infiltrate anywhere in the world..."
Of course, Qianqian couldn't find out anything useful. Firstly, this girl's thinking was not on the normal axis at all. The only reason why she chatted with Zoya was out of curiosity and had no other purpose at all. Secondly, it was that The Dragon Girl is definitely not as familiar with everyone as Qian Qian. Qian Qian can find out about Zoya's bust, but she definitely can't find out what the female Dragon King did thousands of years ago...
The next step is to wait and see when Zoya plans to leave for Dark Moon. At first, I thought it was best to find a reason to act with her and find a way to make this cold dragon girl trust our group. In this way, the rest of the things will be much simpler. However, Bingtis analyzed it and felt that it was not very reliable. After all, not everyone has the same natural talent as Qian Qian. The facially paralyzed eldest sister does not seem to be an easy person to contact. People, and a group of strangers like us appearing out of nowhere hanging around could easily make her suspicious. This is not good. So after some discussion, we decided to just follow her secretly. Anyway, according to Bingtis’s original plan, everyone is going to go to Dark Moon to investigate, and the departure date has not been determined yet. Now everyone just waits for this. Dragon Girl, we will follow her as soon as she moves. Firstly, we will not miss the key situation. Secondly, we can just observe what the Gemini teleportation station is.
Of course, I also remembered to ask about the Blood Princess, because we don’t know anyone else here at all. That stupid big guy may have limited knowledge, so the only reliable people to inquire about are the trio of iron knights. With the help of Bingtis' Lice Spirit, it is not difficult to know the movements and rest time of the trio. They just changed shifts with other night watch knights this evening, and then went to the tavern in the lower area of the fortress to have fun: These should be three people Set daily habits. I didn’t take anyone else with me this time, so I went to the tavern to find them by myself.
Like most recreational places in the lower area, this tavern on the corner of the street is also maintained by the retinue and is exclusively open to soldiers. It has the same characteristics as all similar places in the fortress: noisy. lively. Everywhere is filled with shocking news of men and women bragging and spanking. The trio of Iron Knights were particularly conspicuous in the tavern, not just because Anna had a particularly eye-catching red hair. And because Joseph’s bragging was more than ten decibels louder than anyone else’s…
I almost knew the rules of this place. Like everyone else, I ordered a large glass of low-alcohol wine like a small barrel on the long bar. Then I swung my arms and came to the table of the trio: "Hey, again We met."
"Hey, look, it's the one with a bunch of girls." Joseph looked up and saw me, and immediately shouted happily. He might have drank a lot, and his face was red. "We are really destined, we will be here in the morning We met at the old cripple's restaurant, and now we meet again! Just because of this fate, you have to treat us to a drink..."
Before he finished speaking, he was slapped by Anna, who was full of momentum: "Can you be more handsome?"
I was robbed before I even opened my mouth, but I didn't mind at all - although the words "a bunch of girls" almost attracted the attention of everyone around me, I could see that the scene in front of me was He didn't mean any harm, he was just a little too straightforward. This trio may have been a little out of touch, but I had a good impression of them, so I sat down with a cheerful smile and said, "Okay, thank you for taking care of the silly big guy. I'm inviting you today."
Joseph blushed and laughed: "What you're saying, actually we don't take care of much, we just follow the rules - boss, another barrel of ale!"
Anna sighed and looked at me a little apologetically: "Don't mind, Joseph is just a little bit greedy, so you spend money to survive. Let's invite him back next time - boss, let's have a big platter!"
I had a dumbfounded expression on my face. In the end, the handsome elf guy in the trio maintained a bit of elegance and reserve derived from racial genes, and of course a bit of moral sense. He looked at himself awkwardly as both of them drank a little too much. Partner, he bowed slightly to me, stood up and walked to the bar, then came back with ale and platter...
"Where are the girls around you?" Anna looked behind me and didn't notice anyone else following me. She was a little curious, but soon she nodded clearly, "Oh, I know, they should be taking care of the children at home... Ah, right. Oh, those two are not children, I always forget."
I was overwhelmed as I dealt with the other party's inquiries. Xin said that the group of happy girls he led had finally made a name for themselves. After a few words, they finally found the opportunity to talk about the business. So I asked in a seemingly casual tone: "By the way, do you know the Blood Princess?" Bar?"
It's okay not to ask. When I asked, almost half of the bar could hear the needle drop.
The sudden change in the atmosphere made people tense up. I thought to myself that it was terrible. I had completely underestimated the intimidating power of these three words before - why is the name Blood Princess more sensational than the Dark Moon Lord? !
From the corner of his vision, the soldiers or mercenaries at several nearby tables stopped talking. Some of them were still holding wine glasses, and some had food to go with the wine in their mouths. However, everyone stopped there and looked secretly at this side. These big men licking blood from the tips of their knives were just there. It was as silent as an experienced driver who heard someone talking about a car accident just as he was about to get out of the car. This is the effect that can only be achieved by mentioning something absolutely unlucky among a specific group of people. This situation lasted for a few seconds before slowly recovering. The drinkers around him returned to their own topics again, and Joseph asked in a low voice with a bit of complaint: "Why do you mention such an unlucky thing?"
I was still guessing how powerful the Blood Princess was, and how powerful it was to make a group of big-name mercenaries change their minds to such an extent. But I had to answer Joseph's words, so I had to make random remarks: "Uh... I'll go to the fortress during the day. While walking around, I met a white-haired woman, and she said she was looking for a blood princess or something..."
This sentence was unclear, and no matter how many loopholes there were, Joseph would never have imagined that I said it without knowing what the Blood Princess meant. There was a look of astonishment on his face. Then Heiran said: "You must be crazy. Now An Yue is about to open the door on the ground. What those of us who want to fight are most afraid of is the word Blood Princess. Does anyone dare to take the initiative to find her?"
I considered my words, thinking about how to make the other party not suspicious, and said: "I know that the Blood Princess has a bad reputation, but... to tell you the truth, I was not a mercenary a few days ago. Those girls were dragged out to do this business, so..."
Anna looked at me with a very sincere expression (acquired through many time travels). And my reason seems to make sense. So she nodded: "No wonder, I don't think you are experienced mercenaries. Rather, you look like a bunch of guys who have nothing to do to experience life after studying spells. Since you have never been a mercenary, you don't have enough to do with the Blood Princess." It’s normal to understand—but you should know that during the Fifth War, the coalition forces on the ground organized two suicide squad expeditions, right?”
What else could I do? I can only pretend to know and nod: "Well, I know about this, but I don't know the details very well. I used to just do some learning."
Joseph drank the rest of the ale in the cup in one gulp. He first glanced at the silent Joe across the table, and then sighed: "During the fifth war, the coalition forces on the ground reversed the Dark Moon teleportation for the first time. door, opening a passage from the earthly world to Dark Moon - now people say that it was actually done intentionally by the Blood Princess, because that scary guy couldn't leave Dark Moon, so she used this method to lure people on the earth to her However, the coalition commander at that time felt that he had encountered a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, so the coalition forces on the ground organized an expedition or counterattack against the Dark Moon World for the first time. For the first time, an advance legion of 20,000 people was sent. , there was no news after crossing the portal, and the second time we sent 30,000 people, only four came back..."
The strong man as thick as a bear in front of me almost started to tremble when he said the last few words. I widened my eyes and already had a guess in my mind: "...This is the handiwork of the blood princess?"
Anna and Joseph nodded at the same time, and the latter said in a low voice in a scary tone: "According to the people who ran back, it was simply a feast of murder. How long would it take for tens of thousands of people to be killed one by one? The Blood Princess used sorcery to surround them all, and she ran rampant through the crowd. As long as she came into contact with her, whether it was a human or a horse, it would turn into a puff of white smoke without even having time to breathe, and she would kill all of them. For several days and nights! She killed for several days and nights as if she wanted to vent her frustration of not being able to kill as much as she could in the previous Anni Moon wars! It wasn’t until she had enjoyed herself that she let An, who had been watching the good show for a few days, let go. The moon demons gave the remaining soldiers of the expedition a happy one. The four lucky ones who came back survived because they were treated as trophies by a dark moon demon. Now you know why you can’t mention those three words, right?"
"Since then, people on earth have known that Dark Moon is actually ruled by two people. Lord Dark Moon's invincibility is well known to everyone, but it wasn't until the appearance of the Blood Princess that people understood that Lord Dark Moon was sealed by the goddess every time for hundreds of years. , who is organizing those Dark Moon demons to prepare for war," Anna slowly added beside her, "Blood Princess... She is Lord Dark Moon's right-hand man, a demon who is also immortal, but for some unknown reason, she never She has never appeared in the earthly world, and some people speculate that she was completely imprisoned on the surface of the Dark Moon by the power of the goddess."
"Does anyone know what the blood princess looks like?" I asked curiously.
"...Three of the four people who ran back were crazy. The last one who wasn't crazy said that the Blood Princess was a monster woman." Joseph moved his buttocks on the stool as if goosebumps were rising on his body. "That monster looks like a monster." She looks like a human being, dressed in black, as red as blood, and her face is paler than bones. She doesn't make any sound, and is like a machine when harvesting lives..."
"Because she is so cruel, is she called the Blood Princess?" I suppressed the huge confusion in my heart, frowned and made the same worried expression, and asked in a low voice.
"No, Blood Princess is not a nickname. It should be the name of the monster. At least it is also her official name on Dark Moon. This is what the soldier who survived and came back to report heard the devil call when he was locked in a cage. of."
I nodded and asked no more questions, but the doubts in my heart became more and more. Slowly, I fell into deep thought... (To be continued.
