Dragon Clan: Restart your life
Chapter 223 Love and Justice
Caesar, who was walking among a group of people, suddenly stopped and looked back.
"What's wrong?" Chu Zihang at the end of the team asked with a frown.
"The sound of the wind chimes...has stopped." Caesar also frowned, but he did not stop Kamitachi, and now the sound fragments brought by Kamitetsu were missing the sound of wind chimes, and now the silence around them was terrifying.
That inexplicable palpitating feeling became more and more intense.
"Stopped?" Fingel looked back and said thoughtfully, "Maybe it's because we left? It seems that these wind chimes are used as a warning."
"Warning?" Yuan Zhennu suddenly turned around, her pupils blazing.
Startled by the girl's reaction, Fingel scratched his head and pointed to the wind chime hanging on the metal chain above his head.
"This thing is laid all the way from the palace to here, and there are more in front. If I guessed correctly, these wind chimes probably extend to the end of the stairs. There were no surveillance cameras in ancient times. How to warn if someone breaks in? I guess these wind chimes are anti-theft alarms. Once someone breaks in, it will jingle to alert the people above.”
Yuan Jingnu's pupils slowly dilated, her gaze shifted towards the back of the road.
They had already stepped onto the stairs and walked a long way. When they looked down, they could no longer see the palace. However, the path they came from suddenly became dark and terrifying in his eyes, like the esophagus of a giant beast, or the passage through. The narrow path to the gates of hell.
And he had just escaped from hell without knowing it.
"Let's go!" Yuan Zhennu turned around suddenly and quickened her pace. In the end, he was almost flying on the stairs.
The three of them could not help but be affected by some emotion contained in his urgent voice, and their minds were cast into a shadow.
That's fear! The young girl is afraid!
Seeing Yuan Zhennu's back rising rapidly, Chu Zihang whispered: "Follow! Only by following him can we find the way!"
Fingel said nothing and strode to catch up. As expected, he was the man who had raced the motorcycle before. He followed closely behind Yuan Zhennu.
Caesar and Chu Zihang also started running.
This staircase seemed endless, and Caesar soon discovered that the girl leading the way always changed direction somewhere. It was obviously a straight road, but he suddenly turned around, as if there was a fork in the road ahead.
He suppressed the doubts in his heart, knowing that now was not the time to be curious.
Fingel slowed down and came to them, and whispered: "This kid is familiar with the road. He doesn't look like he is here for the first time. From this road, it can be seen that the White King Bloodline is indeed well-deserved."
"What do you mean?" Caesar gasped and asked, "How long is this road? Why can't I see the end?"
"Don't be intimidated by the length of the steps, it's just using optics to create an illusion."
Fingel's physical strength was obviously superior to his, and he still had some energy left to spread his hands.
"This looks like a straight staircase without any forks, but this is an illusion caused by light. This staircase is actually twisted like a spider web, and has forks. You feel like you are moving forward, but in fact you are unconscious. Follow the steps and turn. If you make one wrong step, you will end up on the dead end."
Caesar looked up in surprise, but in his eyes, this staircase was still a straight staircase leading all the way to the end, and he didn't see the so-called fork in the road.
"This is a palace constructed with dragon technology. It is full of mazes, and the maze is full of traps. It seems that the eight ancient Sheqi families inherited a lot of dragon technology." Fingel said.
"Is it alchemy?"
"There are traces of alchemy, but overall it is the application of optics and engineering." Fingel sighed, "Didn't you find that the fog here is a bit thick? The fog here can bend light, so the road seems straight to you. Yes. The steps under our feet are actually inclined, but your senses are deceived by this maze. You feel that you are still standing on a level ground. You may even unconsciously tilt your body to overcome the influence of gravity and stand up straight. . So the eyes and ears can deceive people. Once they deceive your brain, your body will believe it. This guy..."
Fingel squinted at Yuan Zhennu's back, "He should have been to a similar place, or simply been here more than once."
Chu Zihang suddenly said: "What about you, senior brother?"
He looked sharply at Fingel.
Fingel smiled and said: "I have never been here before, I just experienced similar places before."
"Is it a mission from the Executive Department?"
"No, I like adventure. I often explored ancient ruins during my previous holidays."
"Senior brother, do you still have this hobby?"
Caesar was surprised. He originally thought that this guy's vacation would be to sit in a dark room, smile evilly at the dimly fluorescent computer screen, and then spread the latest sexy news about professors and students on the forum, trading thousands of miles away. outside.
Fingel bared his teeth and said: "It's okay, I live in the countryside. There aren't many other things in the countryside, but there are many ruins."
"Germany?"
"Um."
"If I can return to school alive this time, I hope I can be a guest at my senior brother's house and take us to see those ruins." Chu Zihang said calmly.
"It's okay to be a guest, but are you alone?" Fingel winked, "We have a lot of woods in the woods, why don't you bring your junior sister with you?"
Chu Zihang retreated.
Caesar was very interested: "Are there really many ruins in the German countryside?"
"Yes! I'm so old that I can't finish digging!" Fingel rarely said seriously, "But we have to get out alive first. Oh oh, it's over!"
He looked forward, and the figure of the young girl in front suddenly disappeared, and the light seemed to be distorted for an instant.
Fingel quickened his pace, taking three steps and two steps, then jumped up suddenly and disappeared in the distorted light.
Caesar and Chu Zihang followed closely behind.
The fog dissipated, and they were already standing on the threshold of another hall. Looking back, they saw that the stairs under the thick fog were encircling, and there were many forked roads connecting the back. Once they walked on the forked roads, they would return to the starting point.
It's incredible that the ancestors of the eight Sheqi families built such a maze thousands of years ago.
What comes into view is an equally splendid hall, which is carefully carved from the ground to the dome. It is difficult to imagine the effort that the craftsmen spent on it.
There is no throne in this hall, only copper pillars that can only be embraced by two people. The copper pillars are covered with dense dragon inscriptions.
Yuan Zhennu just glanced at it and walked forward without stopping.
"The history and achievements of the eight ancient Sheqi families recorded on these pillars, as well as King Bai's prophecy, are not interesting. We must leave here as soon as possible."
"Book of prophecy? Are these words dragon inscriptions?" Caesar stroked the words on the copper pillar in front of him, "Why don't we take a group photo with such an important thing?"
"It doesn't make sense to me, and it doesn't make sense to you either. At most, I can better understand the origins of the eight Sheqi families." Yuan Zhennu turned around and said, "Believe me, don't waste your time here, I have bad intentions." Premonition.”
"Let's go, we don't have the tools to imprint the words on it." Chu Zihang patted Caesar on the shoulder.
"Okay, actually I have a bad premonition, but I still feel it's a pity." Caesar sighed and followed, "What is a prophecy book?"
Yuan Jingnu searched for the exit and spoke very fast:
"The White King once wrote a prophecy book that predicted everything in the future, and it was brought to the world by the ancestors. This thing is to the ancient mixed race what the Bible is to Christians today. In the prophecy book, the White King predicted his own future. Awakening and a new era, and the birth of a new era always means the end of the old era. This prophetic book begins with her birth and talks about her resurrection. It is in the form of poetry and is said to be more powerful than the Ramayana. Long. This paragraph is said to be the 'day of victory' described in the White King's prophecy when she will rule the entire world. It is more self-praising and uses the most gorgeous adjectives, just like the autobiography of a dragon king, so I say it is nothing interesting."
Chu Zihang hesitated and said, "Have you seen it?"
Will the Dragon King also write his own autobiography?
"You have also seen it now, it's on the copper pillar, but if you don't understand it, let's talk about it. What I saw was also the content translated by the family priest from the dragon script."
"Aren't the dragon inscriptions on these copper pillars carved by the ancestors of the eight Sheqi families? Didn't your ancestors pass them down?"
"There is an era called the 'Generation of Gods' in Japan. That was the real era when hybrids and dragons danced together. However, the Age of Gods has long been lost, and the eight Sheqi families have experienced a gap."
"Fault?"
"It was almost the time when Takamagahara sank to the bottom of the sea."
Yuan Zhennu came to a wall, which was full of incomprehensible words.
"Found it, here is the door, open it and we can get out."
"Very good, then where is the handle of this door?" Caesar looked at the wall without any gaps, and couldn't pry it open even if he wanted to.
Yuan Zhennu took a step back and handed the knife to Caesar.
The next moment, he punched the wall.
"...Are you going to smash him open?" Caesar said blankly,
No one knew how heavy this bronze wall was, but even a forklift couldn't break it. Caesar was suddenly horrified and remembered the scene he saw in his previous life. Yuan Zhisheng had done the same thing, and he smashed it open with his fist. closed their bronze doors.
He now truly believes these two guys are brothers.
Even the most excellent hybrid species, the toughness of muscles and bones cannot be compared with dragons, but these two brothers are bombarding hard bronze with their bodies, and their toughness has reached the level of dragons.
The delicate white hand was as delicate as a woman's when it hit the bronze wall. The wall vibrated and the loud sound was repeated like a church bell. This scene was enough to shock people's hearts.
Fingel put his arm on Chu Zihang's shoulder, narrowed his eyes and said, "Either this guy has a ridiculously high bloodline, or his spirit tends to be of the physically enhanced type."
"What is your speech spirit? It seems that no one knows your speech spirit." Chu Zihang whispered, "Is it the speech spirit of the bronze and fire systems? I saw you had a sword wrapped around it earlier. Layers of black fire.”
"Junior brother, you have such a sharp eye!" Fingel said sincerely, "It's a pity that I guessed wrong. It was alchemy."
Caesar counted silently in his mind until Yuan Zhennu completely cut through the bronze wall. His expression changed slightly. This guy was even more outrageous than his brother, and it took him half the time.
The bronze wall collapsed with a loud noise, and what appeared in front of them was a dark hole. The sound of rushing water could be vaguely heard below, which seemed to be an underground river.
The girl stood in front of the gap, stared down for a few seconds, then turned around and said, "That's it. If we jump down, we can leave the Nibelungen."
"Wait, how are you sure?" Caesar asked doubtfully, "Have you never been here before?"
Yuan Zhennu said softly: "It's intuition. When I came here before, I relied on intuition to escape. The Food of the Night was an extremely strange place for the emperor. For the first emperor, this place was Their home, but to us, the last descendants, is the tomb of our ancestors, and we enter and exit by feel.”
"I can't explain it to you in detail. I really couldn't sense the existence of the 'door' before coming here, until we were sent into this palace by the undercurrent..."
Yuan Zhennu suddenly froze for a moment, as if she thought of something, her face became extremely ugly.
He took a deep breath and said, "I have a feeling that all this is not a coincidence, but has been arranged a long time ago, and the undercurrent cannot happen to send us here. Do you remember the sound of the wind chimes just now? The wind chimes are indeed used for It’s an early warning, but I’m afraid it’s not the intruders that are being guarded against, but the monarch who is locked inside.”
The atmosphere suddenly condensed.
Fingel laughed dryly and said: "Don't make trouble, didn't that monarch run away a long time ago? The thing just now was just like a projection, otherwise she would have hacked me to death."
Yuan Zhidong looked at Chu Zihang and said quietly: "Do you still remember what you said before we came in? Who can take the initiative to open the Nibelung and involve irrelevant people? This level is equivalent to giving the brand of entry to irrelevant people. There is only one person who can do it, and that is the master of this Nibelung."
"Master..." Chu Zihang's face turned ugly and he couldn't help but look back in the direction he came from.
"But didn't you say that the Night Food was originally created by the ancestors of the eight Sheqi families? What maintains this Nibelung is the alchemical matrix."
"This is not what I said." Yuan Jingnu said word by word, "This is what the history recorded by the eight Sheqi families said. But even the White King will write a prophecy to praise his return, and human beings will only do it even more... this!"
"I don't like the word righteousness, but human beings will always glorify themselves in order to show their righteousness, just like George W. Bush said that they decided to kill Saddam because he was researching weapons of mass destruction, just like the school board eleven years ago After the accident in the Greenland ice sea, they said that they did not expect that the embryos would suddenly hatch, and that everything they did was to kill the dragons..."
Chu Zihang and Caesar's expressions changed drastically, and they looked at Fingel at the same time. This move attracted Yuan Zhennu's attention.
Fingel's face was calm, and his eyes were quietly staring at the passage behind Yuan Zhennu.
But the appearance of such a calm expression on his face meant that he was not calm.
Caesar made a calculation in his mind. Considering the distance between him and Yuan Zhinu and Yuan Zhinu's reaction speed, it would be difficult for him to interrupt him with a slap in the face like he did when Yuan Zhisheng mentioned Xia Mi.
Yuan Jingnu's last words sent all three of them into shock.
"... Just like the secret party still shouts the slogan of exterminating dragons and fighting for the welfare of mankind. Do you believe this kind of thing? The eight Sheqi families said that they were the ones who created the Night Food. This kind of thing Just listen to what you say, don’t take it seriously.”
Huge panic exploded in their minds, making them almost forget to breathe.
"What do you mean when you mentioned the last example?" Caesar took a deep breath and tried to calm the waves in his heart.
Yuan Jingnu smiled and said: "The war between the secret party and the Dragon Clan has lasted for more than two thousand years. Do you really believe that a group of idealists with dragon blood flowing in their veins will fight to the death without regrets for human beings who are completely different from them? Two thousand years. Members of the secret party have watched generations of their ancestors die in secret wars. Have they not been afraid? Then what makes them insist on fighting for humanity and paying the price of blood and not giving up? "
"Is it love and justice?"
His eyes were full of contempt, "Wrong, it's power and strength. If you know the Secret Party, you should understand that the Secret Party has firmly held the power of the human world from ancient times to the present, and the only one standing above them is the Dragon Clan. .Without the Dragon Clan, they are the real masters of this world."
Fingel frowned and said: "I have a question. You were saying from the beginning that you had a bad premonition and urging us to leave as soon as possible. Then why now that the door is open, you told us in a hurry. so much?"
Yuan Zongnu fell into silence.
Behind him was the passage that could leave the Nibelungen, but he was uncharacteristically talking to Caesar and others about unrelated things.
"Because I suddenly figured out something just now." Yuan Zhennu said with a wry smile, "The hunter carefully introduced the sparrow into the cage. Do you think he will let the sparrow fly away easily?"
The three Caesars stood blankly in front of Yuan Jingnu, with a beautiful and ferocious figure reflected in their pupils. That figure was between an angel and a devil, and was one of the greatest creatures of this generation.
Yuan Jingnu's face became increasingly bitter. He could see the existence behind him from the eyes of Caesar who was closest to him. It was the source of the eight Sheqi families and the highest after the Black King.
They are really in a trap.
