Chapter 476 For the Sake of Children (5k5)

The Arder family is a family buried deep in history. As the shadow eagle of the unified empire of mankind in the second era, let alone the documents that record this family, I am afraid that its existence is unknown.

Among the various materials left over from the Second Era, very few traces of its existence can be found. Probably only the Aqiman royal family has some detailed records of Alder, but this is obviously not Roja, the Akate. available to the heirs of the family.

It is precisely because of this that Roja has always known very little about the enemies of the ancestors, but the young man never expected that this time through this heart, Roja unexpectedly learned some information buried deep in history. .

After watching the three most memorable episodes in Veronica's life, Roja's heart was almost uncontrollably filled with grief and anger. In the last firelight and screams, as a mother, Veronica made a The choice made the boy moved, and based on his last memory, Roja basically guessed what happened.

According to the family meeting in the second memory, the Alder family, or the human world it guards, should have encountered some trouble, and there is more than one trouble. After giving birth to a son and staying in the main family, he was attacked by the enemy and finally died to protect his clan.

At the end of the second era, the only people who could attack the Alder family were the most powerful Savior believers at the time. This battle left in Veronica's memory should be the first time the Savior believers started, and If Roja guessed correctly, this incident is probably the turning point of the Alder family from prosperity to decline.

For a family, it is possible to get everything quickly, wealth, territory, army, these are not impossible to have in a short time, even more so for the Alder family, but there is only one thing that cannot be done, that is population.

Although there are not many strong people in the Alder family who died due to this attack, the ordinary family members suffered heavy casualties. The death of this part of the old and weak women and children will drastically reduce the family's population, plus a series of subsequent Crisis and the danger of bloodlines, the population decline of the Alder family is almost inevitable.

The black-haired boy who thought of these sighed secretly, through the memory of a family member, Roja speculated that these can be said to be the limit, but what he did not expect was that after the three paragraphs of memory came to an end, there was an unexpected surprise. reward.

That was part of the memory of the treant priest who used Veronica's heart.

Originally, as a spell, Veronica's Heart cannot have the function of recording the user's memory, but this spell using Veronica's heart as a part is very special, so it needs to maintain its vitality. , and was buried in the body of the tree man.

The tree-human race has always been the representative of vitality, even the fallen dark tree-men. Because of this, even after more than a thousand years, Veronica's heart has remained good, and in the long time His soul was also naturally contaminated with the memories of some tree-human sacrifices.

For Roja, it was different from the previous memory. He could see and hear the nearby situation more clearly, but it was completely illogical. The messy memory revealed a madness, and many things he saw made him shudder.

For example, Roja saw the scene where the people around him respectfully saluted him under the sunny sky one second ago, but the next moment it turned into a dim plain, surrounded by corpses with grim faces. The scene, and the next moment is the scene of the tree man absorbing the nutrients of the earth and growing up in the mountains.

There is no logic, no order, but the content that flashes occasionally is shocking, and even the san value is crazy, but even so, Roja still resisted reading, and tried his best to collect information.

In the continuous patchwork, the black-haired boy basically grasped the situation of this tree man's sacrifice. He was born in the mountains in the far east thousands of years ago. Due to the fog in the mountains, he did not grow well at first, and his clan also did not grow well. They are all weak, but because of the nature of tree people, no one is willing to leave this familiar land.

In this case, the frail tree-man disagreed and chose to embark on a journey of migration alone, after more than ten years of hard work, it finally made it out of the mist-shrouded mountains, when it first appeared. When there was no fog to block the sunlight, the magic power in the tree began to activate like never before, causing it to grow rapidly.

Since then, this tree person has deeply worshipped the sun in the sky, and after an unknown number of years of growth, he entered the world and became a priest serving the sun god. After that, his status gradually improved with time. Eventually he became a priest in the city that never sleeps.

Up to this point, Shuren's memory is still an inspirational story. In Roja's view, it is similar to the boy who went out to work hard despite his parents' objection. .

As the priest closest to the gods, the priests, including the tree people, keep the [eye of Potas] at the top of the city that never sleeps, but the fall of the savior changed everything. Quickly transformed from the illuminating sun lamp to the seductive maddened and depraved demon pupil, the priests closest to this artifact were immediately affected the most.

Under the light of the light, the whole city began to enter chaos and madness. The priests started to fight for the divine weapon, and the people who fell into madness in the city also started to kill. The corpses of various races on the street were layered on top of each other, and the screams were everywhere. Soaring fire.

After falling into madness, the tree man's memory is very confusing, and the commotion in the city that never sleeps seems to have caused various races at that time.

At the same time, a large number of mad fallen people were surrounded and killed on a plain, while the tree people, relying on the memory of the past, took the [eye of Potas] to hide in the mountains and jungles.

During this period, a large number of warriors of various races searched for it, trying to find and destroy the magic weapon transformed by the eyes of the savior, but they found no trace of the tree man. Eye of the Eyes] began a hidden life, until after an unknown number of years, the believers of the savior found it with guidance.

Due to the long-term contact with the [Eye of Potas], the tree people at that time had fallen to the extreme. In order to restore their basic consciousness, the fallen people at that time used the human heart as a curse, and used the human heart as a curse. The madness transferred a part and taught it the spell of free movement developed by the fallen tree people using part of the human body.

Based on this, the treant priest holding the artifact became one of the leaders of the fallen, and participated in the attack on the Alder family. Veronica's heart was obtained at that time, and then the treant priest was also involved in the attack. The Alder family fought several times, but although they were wounded, they never died.

Since there are still crazy emotions, the tree man's memory is very confusing, but it has to be said that the information Roja wants is exactly the situation when he was with the believers of the savior in the years after the tree man's fall, In the continuous search, a scene appeared under the unremitting efforts of the teenager, and Roja got unexpected information.

It was in a dim room with almost no light source, the fallen tree man was hidden in the darkness, and in front of the tree man's sight, there was a man with blurred cheeks, the moment he saw this man, Roja's His mood couldn't help but fluctuate, because this person was the [Collector] who had had a confrontation with him.

[Collector], who was unable to see his face, was sitting across from him at this time, and was reaching out and stroking the curse container on the table in front of him. Something like a mass of meat was floating in it, and it looked like a human organ.

"Finally, is it finally going to be collected? As long as I get that part again, Alder's damned seal will no longer be able to stop me..."

[Collector] touched the container and said so, and the fallen tree man pointed at his body and said a language that Roja couldn't understand. The man shook his head when he saw this.

"Hehe, Okter, don't get excited, I don't lack your heart, I lack other parts, it doesn't matter, the blood of that family still exists, and we still have a chance."

The man's words ended at this point, and the fallen tree man who heard this resumed his silence, and the picture was distorted and began to be replaced by other bloody content.

Yes, this is the most valuable thing that Roja endured and found in the fragmented memory of the fallen tree man. Although it was only a scene and a few short sentences, the amount of information contained shocked the black-haired teenager. .

[Collector], this title Roja once thought it was the name given to the chairman of the tasting meeting, but now it does not seem to be the case, but it has a certain meaning. Through his dialogue with the fallen tree man , it can be basically determined that he is collecting the remains of the Alder family war dead.

Although Shia had a tradition of collecting the bones of enemies in the past to show her strength, it obviously did not include internal organs, and the [collector] himself had already stated the purpose, which was the so-called seal of the Alder family.

Roja naturally doesn't know what the seal of the Alder family in the second era is, but through the reaction of the fallen tree man, the black-haired boy can infer the general content.

The sacrificial treeman named Okter, after hearing the words of the "collector", he was so excited that he wanted to give up Veronica's heart, as a human being who used it for a long time to incarnate a human, and could suppress the madness of the treeman. Curse, this heart is obviously not something that tree people can easily send out. In fact, in the battle with Roja, it has been protecting this heart.

So what is it for, so that it can be excited to donate the important spell? Considering the status of its former high priest and its current situation, there is almost only one answer to this question, and that is the resurrection of the savior.

And with the unraveling of this mystery, the reason why, whether it is Alder or the Akart family, has been targeted by the believers of the Savior for a long time, becomes clear.

Although it is not written in history, I am afraid that the fallen savior will put a seal on it after falling asleep to prevent its believers from awakening the savior, and this step is completed as Shia's legacy, the Alder family who has the blood of the king of.

Because of the blows of various races and the existence of seals, the fallen have not been able to awaken the savior, but the short awakening of the savior in the late second era created an opportunity for his believers, but when the believers wanted to wake him up completely, However, it was found that except for the bloodline awakeners of the Alder family, no one could enter the sleeping enchantment.

Because of this, the believers of the Savior will frantically attack the Alder family, seize the remains of the bloodline awakened, and want to enter the seal in some way, and in the words of the [collector], they are almost done.

"I am afraid that this puzzle, which is mixed with blood and hatred, has reached the last piece, which means that in the next time, the [collector] will definitely attack us, and neither senior sister nor I will be defeated. "

The black-haired boy said this with a serious face, and Lilian fell into silence when she heard the words. After knowing the conspiracy of the fallen, the lives of the two are no longer their own, and they are more likely to become enemies and enter the savior. The key to where it is, releases endless disasters.

Invisible pressure hangs over the two

Between people, even Lilian, who has always been calm and calm, frowned rarely. If the two people in the past only hated the cult, then now they are in a state of immortality for the fallen.

Whether it's for the sake of the ancestors' blood feud, the savior's recovery, or for their own lives, the two people who have the awakened bloodline of the Akart family in this era are the mortal enemies of the fallen, and they will not completely smash each other's conspiracy. , the two will never have peace.

The girl with black hair and purple eyes thought of this and looked to her side, looking at Roja, who was thinking about something for a long time, and frowned as she recalled the words of the boy before.

Roja told Lilian that he couldn't defeat, although it was not wrong, but there was always a feeling that the girl just needed to defend, but can this problem be solved by defense? Always on guard against enemy attacks, that kind of life no one can endure, and no one will ever show flaws.

Lillian knows these things, how could Roja, whose head is turning so fast, not think of it? So why did he say that, to induce the girl to adopt defensive tactics?

There is probably only one answer.

"It's just that I can't defeat it? I can indeed do this. After all, the performance of [Ten Cities] is very good in terms of defense, but... let your beloved fight, while you are safe. Place, I can't do this kind of thing."

"Senpai, what are you talking about..."

"You should know what I'm talking about, right?"

Looking at the boy beside him, the girl with black hair and purple eyes said this calmly, her amethyst-like eyes staring at Roja's cheek, as if she had determined how the boy would act. Under the eyes, Roja's eyes could not help but shake a little.

"Let me live a safe life under the protection of the heavy army, but solve the source of the problem by myself, is that what you think? Tell me about this because you are worried that I am careless, otherwise you will go without saying a word. Go after that man."

"..."

Under Lilian's almost complete questioning, Roja, who understood that he had been seen through, turned his eyes a little unnaturally. The girl with black hair and purple eyes sighed slightly when she saw this, and her face showed a slight loss.

"Originally, after this incident, I thought you could rely on me more, but I didn't expect to put me aside in the face of such a serious matter. Am I so unreliable in your eyes? Or... .In your heart, I'm actually a burden?"

"No, senpai, I don't think so!"

Seeing Lilian's dejected face, the black-haired boy immediately and resolutely denied it. After thinking for a while, Roja explained seriously:

"I just think this is too dangerous. Even if the Alder clan is as strong as before, they cannot defeat the fallen ones. I will not talk about my own safety for the time being. If you are in any danger, senior, I will regret it for the rest of my life."

"And from a standpoint, this matter should also be handed over to me under the direct line of the Alder family. Although senior sister also has the blood of the king, but after all, she is not a member of the Akart family and should not be affected by this matter. Roll in."

The black-haired boy pondered for a moment and then gave his reasons. Lilian heard the sad expression on her face slowly receding. After thinking for a while, she stepped forward and hugged the boy's body.

"Sister?"

"I'm very happy that you can stand in my point of view for me, but like you said, this matter is very dangerous. If you have an accident, I will also regret it for the rest of my life."

"..."

"If something goes wrong with you, I'm afraid I will never forgive myself for the rest of my life. I can only live in sadness and regret every day. What's the point of living in those days when life is better than death? And... even if I Not a member of the Akat family, and this matter has a lot to do with me."

"Um?"

The black-haired and purple-eyed girl said this seriously, causing Roja to be puzzled for a while, and her mouth could not help leaking doubts. Seeing this, Lilian's face turned slightly red, and she said in a low voice:

"Fool, I'm not really a member of the Akat family, but my child is."

"!"

The moment she heard Lilian's words, Roja's body was stiff, her golden pupils could not help shrinking, and the girl with black hair and purple pupils blushed and continued:

"Although it's not possible in recent years, it's small, the baby will be there sooner or later. I'm the mother of the child, how could it be possible for others to stare at his life?"

Lilian said this, her voice gradually became tougher, and her attitude became extremely firm, which was very different from her usual indifferent appearance, which made the black-haired boy stunned for a moment. In fact, Lilian was also a little surprised at this time. .

If it's about himself, then even if the other party has murderous intentions, Lillian will not have any feelings, and will only obliterate the other party, but this time, when it comes to the love crystallization with Roja that he may have in the future, he will be stared at, In the girl's heart, there were rare mood swings, and even a little anger.

Perhaps it was the life and death of the ancestor Veronica a thousand years ago that touched the girl. When she thought that her and Roja's children might be targeted for their lives, Lily's murderous aura could not be restrained. Outwardly, the purple pupils also sharpened.

"..."

Looking at the maternity girl who suddenly appeared beside her, and the murderous girl in her eyes, Roja was silent for a moment and didn't say anything. After thinking about it carefully, Roja had to admit that what Lilian said also made sense. This matter It really shouldn't be excluded.

However, child?

Thinking of the future depicted by Lillian, Roja couldn't help but be moved slightly, but he shook his head again when he remembered the current situation of the two.

It's a sweet dream, but... I'm afraid it will be a long time later.

The young man who thought so sighed slightly for the distant future, and reached out to hug the girl in his arms, but Roja at this time did not know that everything had already been settled.
