Izaks once said this: the history recorded by short-lived races is unreliable, because their lifespan is short and they are easily trapped by their emotions, so their records always have fatal deviations after several generations , Now it seems that this statement is not false at all.
If it wasn't for seeing a portrait of a witch that couldn't be tampered with because it was preserved in a different space, and Vivienne's unreliable memory finally got a little stronger, I'm afraid no one would have thought that the Andre family would pass on three The hundred-year-old witch legend refers to this poor vampire: the truth back then is actually very simple. A poor vampire met two humans by chance, and felt guilty after ruining their fortunes, so After killing a wrath spirit, she gave the two people the spoils she got as a gift. One of the descendants is today's Andre family.
As for how these descendants accumulated such wealth today, how they built a castle in this ominous place, and how they were entangled by angry spirits for three hundred years, I am afraid it is difficult to find out again—but roughly The process can still be guessed.
There must be something wrong with Vivienne's seal, and the "gift" she left to Andre's ancestor was definitely weird.
Vivian found a way to deal with that angry spirit from her memory, and finally remembered why the angry spirit was bound in this world.
"This hall...wasn't like this," Vivian pointed to the surroundings, "It was rebuilt by Andre's descendants in a hundred years. They expanded the original crypt and reinforced it with huge stones. place. But I can still feel some aura left in the hall... It is the blood seal I left back then, and based on these auras, I should be able to find the location of the seal."
Hao Ren conveniently put Vivian's portrait into the portable space, then got up suddenly and pushed open the heavy door in the hall: "It's not too late."
The ancient and decayed hinges creaked, and the cold wind swept in from the outside, with gray and white snowflakes in the middle: Wrath seems to be recovering quickly, and the blizzard that was far away from this small mound has now gathered. Blizzard is the intense malice of that spirit creature. There was a faint glimmer of light floating in the deep darkness outside. Some malevolent, ancient energies are stalking you.
Nangong Wuyue created a water mist shield to resist the increasingly intense blizzard, letting Vivienne lead the way in front of the team. Vivienne recalled the events of the year as she walked: "I remember that I defeated the angry spirit in a cave... There was a door in that cave, and the angry spirit entered the material world through that door. At that time, the angry spirit also An alternate dimension was created, but not on the scale it is now. I think we're in the same cave now—andre's descendants must have built the castle on the site of the seal."
Lily held up the claw blade to illuminate the surroundings, looking at the vast and endless dark snowfield: "... I don't think this is a hole in the ground."
"Speaking of which, your memory is really hopeless." Nangong Wuyue was surrounded by strands of water, teasing Vivienne while separating the surrounding wind and snow, "Three hundred years ago was not too long ago." okay?"
"The main reason is that I didn't think of it all at once." Vivian was a little embarrassed, "This place has changed too much, and the Andre I knew back then was just an unlucky wool merchant, and the seal I left was only underground. A big rock in the depths—who would have known that after three hundred years, a big family and an ancient castle would have developed here? Three hundred years... man-made things change too quickly."
Hao Ren said that he could accept this statement, because he still can't remember the name of his elementary school teacher. Facts have proved that it is easy for people to forget things that they don't care about.
And more importantly, it is difficult for Vivienne to associate a very rich family with herself: as early as the time when Cleopatra was killed by a group of Romans, she no longer expected that she could be with anyone. Rich people make a connection...
Bai Huo has been looking at Vivienne curiously. The behavior of this strange demon hunter is quite different from other demon hunters when he is surrounded by aliens. He is not only calm and calm. And she doesn't hide her interest in the group. Of course Vivian noticed the other party's gaze: "What are you looking at me for?"
"You are... abnormal, different from what I imagined," Bai Huo said calmly. "It's also different from what I read in the book. Many elders among the demon hunters are very afraid of you, and they are even a little in awe. They call you an ancient, and suggest that the younger generation should never encounter you Conflict with you. I thought you were a stubborn eccentric and moody: that's what young witchers assume when they mention you."
Lily was overjoyed all of a sudden, so of course Vivienne punched her.
"You are also different from the demon hunters I know." Vivienne also looked at Bai Huo brazenly, and at the same time raised her finger to the guide palace Sanba, "Of course not counting this: the one next to him is a problem child, let's not discuss it for now The demon hunters I have seen are as stubborn as stones, and they only have naked killing intent after seeing a different kind. But you are very strange, I can feel that you are hostile at the beginning. But there is no killing intent at all, and until the end Now... even the hostility has subsided."
Bai Huo nodded: "The mentor said the same about me, and he has been trying to cultivate my killing instinct against aliens, but it doesn't seem to have much effect. The elders said that I should naturally feel hostile when I see aliens, but I find this strange: why should I be hostile to a creature I don't know, or even see?"
As he said that, Bai Huo blinked thoughtfully: "The instructor said that my mentality is a kind of disease, and I thought so before, but today I came out alone to contact with the alien for the first time, and I found that you are not the same as us. Too different—you guys seem to have feelings too? Then my worldview is fine."
"Aren't you talking nonsense?" Hao Ren couldn't laugh or cry, "Of course aliens have feelings."
And Vivienne was more surprised than everyone else, she looked at Bai Huo in disbelief: "You said you don't have the instinct to kill when you see aliens?"
Bai Huo nodded, and Vivian immediately asked, "Are there any other demon hunters like you?!"
Bai Huo looked at Vivian vigilantly: "Why are you asking this? Spying on information?"
It seems that although this strange demon hunter has a more relaxed attitude towards aliens than other demon hunters, the hostility she has been taught since she was a child is still real. However, Vivienne had already got the answer from the other party's reaction, so she stopped asking further questions, but Hao Ren looked puzzled: "What's wrong?"
"Do you still remember the natural hostility between normal vampires and werewolves?" Vivienne said casually.
Hao Ren suddenly remembered: under normal circumstances, werewolves and vampires are naturally hostile. Even if they have never met each other, and even if they don't even know the existence of each other's race in the world view, they will become hostile the moment they meet. In fact, not only werewolves and vampires have this kind of hostility, other kinds of aliens will almost always have this kind of racial instinct hostility when they meet, and this phenomenon does not exist in the dream plane, so Hao Ren has always suspected What happened to the aliens after they came to the earth from the dream plane caused them to have this weird inheritance.
"As far as I know, the hostility between demon hunters and aliens is a similar reaction," Vivian said in a low voice, "and the natural hostility of demon hunters to aliens is even more serious, reaching the point of absolute killing intent. Basically As long as we meet each other, there is no need to introduce each other's identities, but anyone who detects each other's breath will burst out with killing intent."
"The natural hostility between the younger generation of werewolves and vampires has weakened due to unknown reasons," Hao Ren immediately reacted, "Demon hunters also..."
"It must have been a mutation in the bloodline after crossing from the dream plane to the earth, and both the demon hunter and the alien were recruited," Vivienne said in a very serious tone, "I seem to connect many things... Now the alien and the hunter This kind of 'hostile' disturbance in the bloodline of the demons is weakening, but it seems that the situation of the demon hunters is more serious, and their descendants are weakening with their physique...except for the gifted child Bai Huo."
Bai Huo looked suspiciously at Vivian and Hao Ren who were biting their ears: "What are you mumbling about? Conspiracy? If you want to fight, please speak up. I'm in a hurry."
Hao Ren couldn't bear it any longer: "Why do you have such a bad name, but your words make people angry!"
At this time, Becky's eyes were sharp, and she suddenly saw something appearing in the wind and snow in front of her, and interrupted Hao Ren: "Is that a seal?!"
Hao Ren and Bai Huo followed Becky's line of sight at the same time.
In the wind and snow, one can faintly see a huge boulder with a strange shape in front of it, and a lavender light curtain is constantly expanding and contracting and surging over the boulder.
The surrounding wind and snow suddenly began to intensify. (to be continued~^~)
