Kingdom’s Bloodline

Thales stayed in the dark for a while.

After he calmed down his emotions, he turned around and walked away step by step in the darkness.

What does that guy mean? Thales cautiously groped the cold rock wall beside him, thinking heavily: Turning around will find a way out?

But……

Thales raised his head and looked at the darkness in front of him. He felt a headache because he could hardly see anything.

Thinking of the possibility of finding a strange head on the dark rock formation, or suddenly seeing a stiff face, the furious prince finally gave up the idea of ​​mobilizing the crime of prison river to find the way, and used his hands and feet to find the way. Exploring the rock wall beside him and the ground under his feet, he did not dare to relax at all.

But the danger of the black path was beyond Thales' expectations. He hadn't taken a few steps before he immediately felt something different under his feet!

"crash"

The sound of rocks rolling.

Thales, who was startled, didn't react at all. He only felt that his feet were empty, and he lost his balance in an exclamation. His upper body leaned forward and fell down!

how

Knowing that it was going to be bad, he subconsciously hugged his head and chest to prevent further damage from the impact.

However, Thales' luck was obviously worse than that: his elbow barely touched the ground, but he couldn't stop his body's downward trend at all, and his whole body still slid along the inertia, and even rolled forward!

Oops!

Thales thought in panic and pain: This is still a damn slope!

"Crack..."

In the constant friction between his body and the rock formation, Thales tightly protected his head and face, curled up like he was beaten in an abandoned house a long time ago, trying to avoid damage during the roll as much as possible.

In the darkness, his back hurt from the impact, his knees and elbows were bruised a lot, and his clothes were frayed in many places on the rough ground.

The hot feeling spread all over his body, and Thales couldn't help cursing this damn place again.

Finally, after rolling the sixth lap or the sixteenth lap, the dizzy Thales finally stopped with a loud noise and severe pain in his left elbow.

He touched a flat ground that was not so rigid.

"Damn..."

In the darkness, Thales lay on his back on the ground, groaning in pain.

How on earth should I... how to get out?

However, in the darkness of invisible things, there was a low, hoarse, chilling voice: "Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!"

Thalesden, who was rubbing his injured elbow, felt his scalp tighten!

"Who is it..." The voice was intermittent and without rhythm, faintly resounding in the cave, light and mysterious.

"Who disturbed my dream..." It seemed as if the gasping before death followed.

A chill crawled up Thales' back.

no?

Thales let out a painful breath, shivering slightly in the cold air of the black path.

Unbelievable, he encountered those things again.

"Which idiot is it?" the voice continued, with a chilling rhythm:

"dare……"

Thales, who bit his lip tightly, held his breath and fell to the ground, not daring to move, let alone make a sound, only wishing that he was now a rock of insensibility and ignorance, for fear of being discovered by something unknown in the dark...

"Dare to rest in my old lady..."

Eh?

wait a minute.

Hearing the terrible low moan next to his ear, Thales had doubts in his heart.

this voice...

He raised his head abruptly, and tremblingly said in the darkness:

"Kurz?"

Thales, who was full of surprises and doubts, tentatively asked in the dark: "Is that you, Kez?"

There was a slight gasp in the darkness.

A few seconds later, the hair-raising mysterious voice turned into a colder laughter:

"Hehehe..."

The echo of the sneer echoed in the air and spread in a low voice: "So it's you, kid."

it sounds...

Thales felt another chill in his heart: Why does it sound so strange?

He swallowed desperately, and at the same time, puzzled and frightened, he asked anxiously:

"You, you, are you still alive?"

The silence in the darkness lasted for a long time.

During those few seconds, Thales could even hear his own heartbeat beating faster and faster.

"No."

The voice came again coldly.

Kezi's voice was slightly sad, even weak, with an inexplicable sense of gloom: "I'm already dead..."

Thales froze for a moment.

He closed his eyes and sighed softly.

well.

Kurz she...

At that moment, Thales said depressedly: "I'm sorry, Kez, it was my fault, I couldn't..."

However, as if aware of his emotions, Kertz's voice came faintly again.

This time it was very different: "But..."

"If you climb off me right now..."

Kerz's weak voice became more and more clear, and the dissatisfaction and anger in the gnashing of teeth in the words were gradually grasped by Thales: "Stop suppressing my words..."

"I can still be resurrected."

Thales' scalp felt cold first, and then he realized what was happening. He let out an "ah" in fright, and hurriedly got up backwards.

Leaving Kurz's poor back.

I said...

Why is this land so warm and so...

soft?

Amidst Kerz's painful groans and hisses of dissatisfaction, Thales, who was embarrassed and terrified, apologized repeatedly, at least escaped the crime of manslaughter.

In his fuss, he picked up the poor Kurz, who had escaped unharmed and was lying on the ground panting.

"You, you're actually okay...I saw you from..."

In the darkness, Thales pulled Kerz's arm with surprise and excitement, and blurted out, "You're actually fine!"

Thales could feel it: Kerz gave him a disdainful look in the dark.

"Look at what you said, what is this..." The seamstress was still weak, but her words had returned to normal: "I grew up among the dead!"

The seamstress leaned against a protruding rock, gasping for breath: "Life is hard!"

Thales let out a deep breath and pulled the corners of his mouth.

"Is it."

"I'm glad you're all right," the prince whispered.

Kurtz's complaints paused.

A second later, her loud voice sounded again.

"It's just that the rock formation collapsed for no reason," Kurz seemed to be beating his back vigorously in the dark, "It's really unlucky, it feels like it's going to collapse wherever you go..."

"I must have forgotten my lucky leggings when I went out..."

Thales raised his head.

"The rock collapsed," he repeated with a nod, "so,"

"You can't see those dead souls..."

Thales whispered.

In the darkness, Kurtz's questioning voice came: "Huh?"

"Those what?"

Thales snorted and shook his head sullenly.

"nothing."

Therefore, only he can see, and only he knows that those collapses were caused by the dead souls.

Thales thought of them that appeared in the rock wall.

Whether it was the sin of Hell River that made them appear violently, or after being washed by the power of the end, his eyes could see those dead souls...

Thales sighed: It seems convenient to use the crime of prison river to strengthen eyesight or hearing, but...

This is simply the "hell senses" of opening your eyes to see the devil.

at this moment.

"Boom..."

With the low roar, the ground shook again!

Thales and Kezi's breathing stagnated.

"Isn't it?" The seamstress' voice sounded unbelievable: "One more time?"

"Where do you really go?"

A huge collision sounded from their ears: "Bang!"

Feeling the crushed stones rushing towards his face, Thales subconsciously raised his arms to protect his head and stepped back.

The shaking of the ground became more and more violent.

A strange ominous feeling came to Thales' heart.

No.

this vibration...

Thales had a wonderful feeling, as if he knew what was about to happen here.

The prince suddenly remembered what the silver shadow man said before, and his face turned pale.

"No, this time it's..." He tried his best to suppress his panic and palpitations, but he couldn't remain optimistic: "This time it's for real..."

Thales jumped up from the ground suddenly, and grabbed Kurz's arm, with uncontrollable panic in his words:

"Go!"

Holding the rock wall in the dark, he became more and more panicked: "The whole black path, the whole black path is going to collapse!"

Thales urged loudly: "Leave!"

Kerz let out an "ah" and said in confusion, "But why..."

"Snapped!"

Another rock fell not far from them.

Both of them were stunned by the shock!

"Fuck!" An exasperated Kez didn't hesitate anymore, she struggled up from the ground like a rabbit, ignoring her injured legs, leaning on Thales' shoulder, and limped forward.

"boom!"

The slope they rolled down was buried by rubble.

But after advancing several meters in the dark, Kurz sighed heavily and pushed Thales away.

"no."

The ground trembled unceasingly, but Kertz's voice sounded slumped:

"This is not the route I know...the lights are out, it's too dark, I can't find the way..."

Facing Thales' confusion and anxiety, Kurz said sadly:

"Also, my legs...we can't walk fast..."

Thales frowned.

No.

No!

"Let's go," Kurz said with a sad smile amidst the roar, "If you're lucky, you might be able to touch it out..."

Thales managed to stabilize his balance amidst the vibration.

In a hurry, he subconsciously grabbed Kez's arm: "No, we must have a way, we can't let it go..."

But he was held down by Kerz!

"If you go out, tell the cripple that I have fulfilled his order," Kurz panted, and chuckled softly: "Also, let him forget about that girl."

"No!" Thales categorically refused, and roared, "Get up!"

Thales wrapped Kezi's arm around his neck, supported Kezi's waist, desperately trying to push her up: "It's not the end yet...Get up for me, bastard!"

There was a crisp sound, and the rock formation behind them shattered inch by inch.

"crash"

A cave not far from them appeared to have completely collapsed.

The boy lost his footing, and fell down on the rock wall together with Kertz.

"Let's go..."

Panting, Kurz pushed his shoulders, urging him to leave: "If you don't want to be buried alive now..."

No.

In the darkness, Thales gritted his teeth.

Isn't it just that you can't find your way?

As long as... as long as you can see clearly...

As soon as he held on to the rock wall, unwilling to do so, he recklessly urged the crime of prison river and entered the "hell senses" that he once hated.

But before he could call out the crime of prison river, the moment he held onto the rock wall...

Thales felt the trembling in his hand, but his heart was silent at this moment.

strangeness.

slidely different……

Thales was stunned.

how he feels...

"Hey, if you don't leave, we will all die here..."

In the dark, Kurz, who pushed Thales desperately, but urged him to no avail, swore a few words angrily.

But then she figured something out and laughed out loud.

"Forget it, forget it," Kezi laughed softly, with a sense of fatigue in his voice: "I died with a prince, and before I died, I still flirted, hugged, and never left..."

Thales was immersed in his own feelings and had no time to care about him.

At that moment, Thales touched the cave wall, felt the roughness and layers that belonged to the rock formation, and felt a strange throbbing in his heart.

"When I was a girl," Kurz sighed, and leaned on the rock wall in a daze, "I always dreamed of this day, dreaming of a certain powerful, handsome, unrestrained and single-minded dignitary. Good man, he found me, a beautiful little white flower in the mud, and rode a horse to take his princess home..."

Thales didn't pay attention to Kerz's words. He touched the rock wall, only to feel that the surroundings in his senses were different, and he became more and more surprised.

This is……

it feels like...

It's like touching the pulse of some living thing...

One after another, one wave after another, one after another...

like...

It's like the earth is breathing.

It's like the mountains are dozing.

Like rock and earth snoring.

Thales touched the rock formation tremblingly, feeling the information from inside, extremely surprised and amazed.

What is this...

No.

It does not matter.

important.

The most important thing is that Thales raised his head in a daze, and looked gently in one direction: there.

Although he can't see anything.

But he knows.

There.

There it is!

"Until that night, those drunken soldiers came into my tent..."

"Son of a son of a bitch..." Kurz sneered, and slowly shook his head: "What prince, what wedding, the stories I heard when I was young are all fake, the prince will indeed marry the princess, but don't worry, there is only one princess , and that's definitely not you..."

"In the end, you will find out that the most reliable man is actually that bastard beside you who is cursing all the time, who is full of problems and never repents..."

"That's it, his eyes aren't on you yet, he's always thinking about a bitch in his dreams..."

at this moment.

"Will not!"

Thales struggled to get up from the ground, and as Kerz exclaimed, he put his arms around the seamstress' plump waist and forcibly helped her up!

The prince, who figured out what was going on, breathed heavily, and his body couldn't help trembling because of his excitement:

"We will not die here!"

The ground began to tremble again.

The rocks behind him fell more and more frequently.

In the darkness, Thales tried his best to drive Kurz forward, shouting angrily:

"follow me!"

"I know the way out!"
