After the temperature slowly dropped, Lid also regained his sobriety.
During the poisoning period, his head was always dull, and the first thing after detoxification was to concentrate on dealing with the enemy in front of him. Only now did he have time to think about the current situation.
And after thinking about it, Li De couldn't help but look at Huang Yan.
Just after a hearty battle, Huangyan's face was still beaded with sweat, her skin was rosier than usual, and her hair was still covered with unmelted snowflakes. She seemed to be in a good mood, probably because she came at the right time to help Lide resolve the crisis at that time, and she didn't know that Lide had stayed behind.
It is also a very happy thing to fight side by side with Lide. She has been a lonely person since she was born. After she grew up, she waved the knife in her hand and kept fighting in the world. Afterwards, she gradually gained a large number of followers. , but the front is still deep darkness. But just now when the two of them were leaning against each other, Huangyan suddenly felt that the world is not only bitter and cold.
It reminded her of her adoptive father.
The last time Huangyan felt warmth was when her adoptive father was still alive. At that time, the adoptive father would touch her head and tell her about his travels. There was a small pot in front of the two of them, and the game she hunted was cooked in it. There is no salt and no spices, so it is not delicious. Huangyan still remembers the fishy smell of the bloody meat after boiling, but every time she listens to the story of her adoptive father, she can eat half of the pot without knowing it. .
Huangyan was recalling her adoptive father, and Lide was also thinking about other things.
From the high giant, Lid heard about the necessary condition for resurrecting the giant race—blood sacrifice, and the "key" to awaken Clenas, the pillar of eternal life.
The so-called key is the powerful resentment and hatred towards the old gods.
At that moment, the words of the little slime came to mind.
——"Serge... As the name suggests, the son of Tianyan is a child that the old gods don't like, in fact, he is a child who is not tolerated by heaven. People who have suffered misery or injustice have resentment towards the gods. These resentments accumulate over time and turn into human forms. Born through the mother's womb, they are the so-called sons of heaven."
The hatred for the old gods and the struggle against the injustice of heaven are all vividly reflected in Huangyan.
She is the key Kleinus needs to be resurrected!
But is it really such a coincidence? Why did Huang Yan appear in this place? Why is it at this point in time
Lide closed his eyes and thought about it for a while, then he recalled what Huangyan said when he was in the hotel.
——"The foster father took his own life to change my life. Going north to Lingwu to go to the giant clan is my only way of life. I don't want to die, I want to live, I want to fight against the law of heaven... So I came here .”
It's very simple, because someone told her that only by going to the giants can she have a chance to escape her fate.
Is this suggestion really for Huang Yan? Lidd became skeptical instead. If they stayed in the human territory, the Heavenly Tribulation might fall as usual, but with the existence of the National Defense Array, it would never be easy for the Kungu gang to take away this resentment. But now on the land of the giant race, the catastrophe has fallen, and that Kleiners is likely to benefit from it...
From this point of view, the Church of the Abyss may not have started to act recently, perhaps it had already started planning more than ten years ago, or even earlier. Crazies like them don't care about the length of time, even if they sacrifice the lives of several generations, they can still continue to fight for the ideals in their hearts.
The question is in this game, what does Lord Lingwu want
The hidden guards will intercept here, which means that Lord Lingwu has long planned to silence him. The commander of Yinwei didn't know if Lide could get the news and come back alive, but he gave Lide considerable respect and tacitly agreed that he could find out what happened, so he arranged for someone to intercept and kill him here in advance.
What is the purpose of the Lingwu Lord? The simplest guess is that Lord Lingwu is also a believer of Kungu, so she cooperated with the Church of the Abyss to plan this matter, and she was worried that Lide would find out so she silenced her. But this conclusion cannot withstand scrutiny, because Lord Lingwu has been guarding against church members since a long time ago, and that woman does not seem to be the type who will cooperate with anyone.
Lide thought for a while, but due to insufficient information, he did not draw any conclusions, so he asked:
"I remember you told me that you came to the giants to find a way to deal with the catastrophe. Have you found it?"
Huangyan was taken aback for a moment, smiled lightly, and replied:
"No."
She didn't look at Lid, but turned to the white snow in front of her, and said with a smile:
"Sorry, Lied, I still haven't been able to pass the hurdle of eighteen years old."
Lid's heart suddenly ached.
He believed in Huangyan's ability. After so long, she hadn't found any clues. There was only one possibility. It’s just that this matter was a complete scam from the very beginning, and there was no way to save it. Huangyan was destined to die on her eighteenth birthday, and her existence was to make up for Kleiners’ resurrection. jigsaw puzzle.
She has struggled with her own life for so long, stumbled through nearly eighteen years, but in the end she could only meet a cruel fate, and even the good memories of the past may not be true. The outside world has so many speculations about her, the royal family and various lords are afraid of her to the bone, but in Lide's eyes, she is just a girl whose life is thinner than paper.
Lied didn't tell her his conjecture, because it didn't make sense anymore. In the end, she had to know that the adoptive father she had always respected was probably not a good person, and that her coming here was probably arranged by the Church of the Abyss. What else could this cruel fact bring besides pain
Lide also briefly thought about whether he could prevent the final tragedy from happening if Huangyan's life was ended by him. But this thought was only fleeting. The living Huangyan can control her emotions, but no matter how she dies, her resentment will flow back into the world, and Kleiners will definitely be fully resurrected at that time.
Thinking of this, Li De felt relieved. He patted Huangyan on the shoulder and said:
"It's nothing, actually it's nothing. A person's growth and maturity are instantaneous. Turning eighteen is just a ceremony. Some people are already very mature before they turn eighteen, and some are old and naive."
Huang Yan also smiled and said to him:
"Don't say such frustrating words. Where are your two maids... Da Bing and Xiao Bing? And that chubby creature named Serge, I haven't seen it anyway."
Lid exhaled and replied:
"Those two maids are following Lingwu. They have nothing to do with this incident. Lord Lingwu should not embarrass them. However, the situation on Lord Lingwu's side should not be optimistic. The opponent she will face is likely to It exceeded her expectations, and I wonder if Lord Lingwu can protect them under such circumstances. As for that Serge..."
Lide blinked his eyes, froze for a while, and then slammed his palm:
"Fuck, almost forgot about it."
