(Ask for a monthly ticket!! Now it is double the monthly ticket, brothers and sisters!)
The heavy red door of the Dark Moon Palace slowly closed behind everyone, the hinges and hinges creaked over the years, and finally with a bang, the last ray of skylight outside was also cut off.
In front of us is a long and wide rocky corridor. Burning torches are inserted in the stone grooves on both sides of the corridor, illuminating the lifeless place with the flickering light of the fire. There are no decorations or doors and windows in the corridor. The heavy and thick red carpet is the only colorful embellishment here. Gloomy, dim, and quiet, the Dark Moon Palace is such an unpleasant place.
The obsidian temple of the Bingtis family also has a gloomy shadow corridor, but this place is even more unbearable than the shadow corridor: it is filled with a kind of "dead energy", a kind of hopeless, as if waiting for death. dead air".
I looked to both sides: the gray and white walls can see the natural mountain rock texture, there is no doubt that this place is also directly excavated from the rock foundation, this is really a big project—at least for people in this world . The ruler of Redmoon has lived in such a strong and gloomy prison cell for many years, repeating the mission of life and death for hundreds of years again and again, and at the same time bears the huge pressure of being constantly swallowed by the abyss and fighting against the tyrannical side of his heart. Pressure, what kind of person would that be
If ordinary people live here, even if there are no other factors, the environment alone may make people crazy.
From entering the castle until now, we have only seen one person, that is the monster maid who opened the door to welcome the guests and is now in charge of leading the way. It is a girl with a faint smile on her face all the time, she looks weak and ordinary. She walked at the front of the team without saying a word, leading the crowd through this long stone corridor, every step she took was in order, and she always kept herself in a fixed position in front of Sonia, It looked no different from a normal, well-trained and courteous professional maid, but compared with the eerie and eerie environment around her, the sense of disobedience on this monster girl was enormous.
Sonia followed her for a while, and finally couldn't hold back her curiosity and anxiety: "What happened in the castle?"
"Nothing happened, it's just that everyone has left." The monster maid said politely while keeping her footsteps, she just tilted her head slightly, with an unchanging indifferent smile on her face.
"Leave?" Sonia couldn't help but hesitated for a moment, "There are only more than 20 people in the castle? The others left? Those guards and servants left? Where did they go?"
"It's an order from the Blood Princess. I'm just a servant, so I don't need to know that much." The monster maid still smiled, "There are indeed only twenty-two people in the castle, so most of the rooms and corridors have been sealed. Just go directly to His Majesty's bedroom. Please come this way, the other corridor has not been cleaned for several years, and it is not very clean—there is not enough manpower to keep busy."
The voice of this monster girl was very calm, it sounded as if she was answering the guests' questions in a normal way, and then talked about the daily life, but Bingtis gradually frowned as she watched her back, and then suddenly Cough twice: "Ahem, how long have you been infected?"
The smile on the monster girl's face faded instantly, and her footsteps stopped suddenly. But then she put on a smile again: "Sure enough, it's a distinguished guest brought by Lord Dragon King. It's amazing. But I haven't heard that the four adults have such a special friend. What you know seems to be... ah, sorry, I said it What a subordinate should not say."
When Bingtis' voice fell, I focused on the monster girl. At this moment, I finally felt that there was an unpleasant weirdness in the other party. A sharp blade wrapped in a few sheets of paper is dangerous and obscure. The feeling is all too familiar: the abyss. It's just that the abyss reaction on this monster girl was too weak, so I didn't notice it at first.
Of course, it is also possible that the similar ominous atmosphere lingering in the entire Dark Moon Palace diverted his attention.
"Are you infected?" Sonia was also stunned for a moment, and then realized what Bingtis meant. She immediately subconsciously grabbed the arm of the monster girl, but the next second she retracted her hand like an electric shock , "What's going on? Don't the people in the castle rotate every three years!? And the seal on that barbarian..."
"Other people in the castle can indeed be rotated once every three years," a voice suddenly came from not far in front, "but what about Brother Barbarian? The shadow of the devil has been entrenched on him for more than two thousand years, who will rotate with him? "
It was a voice that sounded very young, even so young that it was a little immature. The few of us looked around and saw a strange young girl standing at the door of the room not far ahead. The other party looked about the same age as Qianqian, with a slightly petite figure, wearing a gothic dress with a red background and black border, long red hair with a shawl, and fair complexion. Elegant and beautiful, her lips are thin and slightly upturned, which seems a bit cynical, and a pair of pointed black cat ears stand on her head-this is another monster, and it is also a cat monster. Most of the monsters on the dark moon seem to be cat monsters. This should be the aftermath of the war thousands of years ago: other monster tribes have declined and have not recovered much.
However, what caught my attention most about this new monster girl was her eyes, which were a pair of blood-colored vertical pupils, which shone with strange fluorescence under the dim and flickering light. Because the light was very dark, the vertical slits in the pupils Opened a little, looking like an apricot pit. Seeing those familiar blood-colored cat pupils, I couldn't help but look down at my side. Sure enough, Viska was looking at him with his neck tilted. The little girl's eyes would not be in the dark like normal cat pupils. Adjust the pupils, so she thinks the other party's cat eyes are very interesting, and now imitating others to slightly open the vertical slit in the eyes, I couldn't help but press her head, and there was a soft "bang", Wei Scar popped out the cat ears again.
After this girl's playfulness came up, many actions were unpredictable. I judge that her current mentality should be similar to that of a brat holding a water gun when she sees a shootout movie: seeing a girl with the same eyes as her, She began to imitate each other.
"Hello, my name is Meowska!" Viska touched his ears and tail to confirm that the transformation had been completed, and then happily waved to the girl in front. She usually does not treat strangers Shows a warm personality, but now it's hard to see a person with eyes so similar to his own, it's just a little overjoyed.
The moment I saw her, I guessed the identity of this monster girl, and the castle maid who led the way proved my guess as soon as she opened her mouth: "Princess Blood, your guests have already arrived."
Sure enough, the strange girl who appeared in front of everyone was the famous Blood Princess, the monster beast scholar who was rumored to be vicious in the earthly world, but her real identity had nothing to do with ferocity and blood.
"Well, it's hard work, go down and rest." The blood princess nodded to the monster maid, and then turned to this side after the other party retreated. Her eyes stayed on our family for a while, and then fell on Dragon Girl Suoya: "Long time no see, Suoya, just now I saw you crashing into the next hill, I thought you should be here by now."
"Lily, what's going on here?" Sonia hurriedly walked up to Blood Princess and grabbed her arm, "Where are the people in the castle? Where's the idiot? Normally, preparations for the Dark Moon War have already begun at this time..."
"There won't be a sixth war, and there won't be any Dark Moon Wars in the future," Blood Princess shook her head. "As for how many days of 'future' this world will have, it's up to fate."
"Why..." Sonia only had time to say one word, and forced the rest into her stomach: she seemed to have guessed something. Blood Princess ignored Sonia, who was in a state of trance, and she slowly came to us, her blood-red cat eyes, which were exactly the same as Viska, looked at everyone curiously.
I am also curiously looking at this great monster scholar. She was the leader of the four-person team back then. From the story told by Sonia, it can be seen that this blood princess used her strategy and foresight to lead the three immature young people step by step from the precipice of destruction. The world was abruptly pulled back, and this out-of-control binary world persisted on the edge of a cliff for two thousand years. She is also the de facto ruler of Dark Moon: Although Lord Dark Moon is the supreme leader in name here, anyone with a discerning eye can see that the monarch called "Barbarian" is actually just on the table. Its role is to take the knife from the goddess during the Dark Moon War. The one who really rules this planet should be the girl in front of me.
Looking at her appearance and demeanor, I suddenly thought of four words: noble as a cat.
Well, she is indeed a cat. Viska was still waving at her: "Hello, my name is Meowska! If you don't make a sound, I will blow up this place!"
I hurriedly grabbed the irritable cat girl, but the blood princess smiled and nodded to Viska: "I didn't expect to see you here, I was completely deceived by you... Now I don't understand your identity and identity at all." Here comes the history."
I looked at each other in surprise, and Bingtis next to me showed a thoughtful look, but what she asked was another thing: "Listen to your tone, the abyss on the Lord of the Moon, that is, The demon power you mentioned is out of control after all."
"I don't know how much you have mastered, and I don't know where you heard about these things." The blood princess seemed a little surprised, but she quickly calmed down, "But since Sonia brought you here, There must be a reason for that. Come with me if you're interested, anyway... this secret won't last long, and sooner or later everyone will face it."
After she finished speaking, she turned her head and walked towards the room she had just come out of. I could only lead a group of people to follow behind in a daze. We walked into the gorgeous door that looked like the king's bedroom, and then found the The situation is somewhat unexpected:
I thought this was the dormitory of Lord Dark Moon, at least it should be a place for people to live in, but when I entered the door, I found that it was a stone house with no windows. There was no furniture in the spacious room, not even a chair and a bed None, it's just a simple stone chamber, not so much a house as a carved grotto.
If you have to say that there is any decoration in this "cave", it is the complex magic circle carved on the ground. This is a huge array of runes, which even extends to the wall. The light looks weird and mysterious, and the center of the room should be the "magic focus" of the magic circle, and there is a person lying there, a giant-like person.
Seeing that huge figure lying on the ground, I was stunned: "Damn, stupid?!"
"Damn, it really developed like this... The previous hunch was correct, is my mother going to become a prophet too?" Bingtis slapped himself on the forehead, then looked up at Princess Blood, "You are that cat, right? Looking back now, the temperament is indeed a bit similar."
"It's not easy for you to remember the temperament of a cat." The blood princess smiled decently, and then under my surprised gaze, her whole body was enveloped by a cloud of flowing gray mist. It twisted and slowly shrunk, and when the gray mist dissipated, what appeared in front of everyone was a familiar black kitten: green eyes, a small body, black fur without a trace of variegation, and that kind of kitten. Lazy as if everyone owed him five hundred dollars... It was Xiao Hei, the psychic cat next to the silly man!
I:"… "
"That's right, that's the temperament," Bingtis nodded, "with a bitter and vengeful look and a lazy look."
The gray mist appeared on the little black cat again, and then it turned into a girlish form again. She blinked her eyes and looked at everyone with a half-smile: "I hide it well, don't I?"
I just recovered from the surprise at this time, it may be that I have experienced too many surprises in the past few years, and my nerves also tend to develop towards the lack of heart and lungs of Qianqian and Bingtis, so I was a little surprised After the change, he accepted the new identities of the silly big man and Xiao Hei: the black cat in front of him was Blood Princess, and the silly big man who was currently lying in the middle of the room, looking like a dead body, was obviously the Dark Moon Monarch—except that it was bizarre. Are there any other adjectives? !
"What the hell is going on with you guys!?" Qianqian yelled in surprise, this girl has a big brain, but she still likes to bluff when encountering bizarre events, "Who can Explain it?"
"There is nothing to explain. Brother Manzi is dying. I just want to accompany him on the last journey with ease," said Blood Princess, who seemed to be indifferent to everything. Our sudden appearance here should be something worth investigating. However, she was not even interested in looking at us more. When she was talking, her eyes were always on the big man lying on the ground as if sleeping, and she didn't turn away until Sonia forcefully pulled her arm. Open her eyes.
"Lily, what's going on? Can't the seal on the stupid barbarian last forever?"
"How can it be so perfect?" Blood Princess shook her head and smiled wryly. "The seal is made by imitating the runes on the artifact, but the things of the gods are too profound. Only by imitating a few runes can they exert much power. Now it seems that fakes are after all It is a miracle that a fake can last for two thousand years... Brother Manzi became like this a few years ago, the demon power has invaded his spirit, and now he puts all his strength on fighting against that shadow, and he can't even speak Now, I can only build this room to prevent him from suddenly losing control... If he voluntarily leaves the magic energy focus of the magic circle, it means that the demonic power has gained the upper hand, and the entire castle will immediately sink into the ground, but who knows if this can stop it from happening? What about the shadows? Do your best."
Sonia frowned: "So you started to disperse the people in the castle a few years ago, and now the remaining twenty people..."
"They were all there when the demon power leaked a few years ago. Everyone has sworn to sink into the center of the earth with the castle, including me. I'm sorry, Sonia, I didn't tell you and Ed about such a big thing Wensa, because it’s useless to tell you, there is no one in this world who is more proficient in rune technology than me, and even if we know the principles of those runes, we don’t have time to make a second set of seals.”
"Wait a minute!" I had no choice but to interrupt the endless conversation between these two people, and now I am still confused, "Lily, right? Listen to what you mean, Lord Dark Moon has been in the past few years. Li has been imprisoned in this place? Then what happened to the silly big guy and little black we met in the above world?"
"The avatar is just connected to the dream," Blood Princess smiled, "The silly big man and the little black cat on the ground are all clones created by me. I directly control the cat, and Manzi brother controls the silly big man in the dream. For Brother Manzi, the days on earth in the past few years were just a long and peaceful dream, and now he is still dreaming, he dreamed that he came to a place called North Fortress, and now he is a trainee Recruits—do you understand? As for the barrier of the Sky Bridge... Couldn't Sonia sneak in too?"
It dawned on me, I really didn't expect the matter to be so simple: the silly big man and the black cat on the ground do exist, but they are just two incarnations! As for the dream control mentioned by the blood princess, it is a simple principle that does not need to be explained too much. Bingtis slapped his forehead vigorously from the side: "Oh shit, my mother's stain appeared, I should have seen what was going on, but I didn't think about it at all..."
I know that when Bingtis was on the ground, she once had some doubts about the stupid big man, but at that time she just thought that the stupid big man's abilities were weird, so she didn't pursue it at all, otherwise how could she see it with this female hooligan's ability? There is no connection between that one person, one cat and An Yue.
Qianqian thought for a while, and suddenly asked Blood Princess curiously: "By the way, I remember that when I was on the ground, the big fool said that he grew up in the world on the ground since he was a child. His appearance doesn't look like a lie—so He's not just dreaming, is he, you moved your hands and feet?"
"I sealed most of his memories, and then made up a background for him," Blood Princess nodded, "I just want Brother Manzi to live a peaceful life that he has been looking forward to for thousands of years, hunting and chopping firewood every day, just like It's the same as it was more than two thousand years ago... It's a pity that I can't become Antill, so I can only stay by his side as a cat. If someone pretends to be Antill, Brother Manzi will be angry."
So far, the last bit of mystery has been cleared up. RS
