Kingdom’s Bloodline Chapter 37: The spokesperson of the sunset
Thales, who was seriously injured, was carried on his back by a member of the guard. He was shaking and dizzy, but he continued to move forward with the large force.
The pain in his left shoulder and arm awakened his consciousness.
Where am I?
He shook his head vigorously.
It took a while for the traverser to realize that he was ignorantly escorted by the elite royal guards headed by the cloaked woman, steadily moving forward in a marching pace.
Gilbert and Gini walked with the cloaked woman and seemed to be talking in a low voice.
Thales took a deep breath, dragged his tired spirit, and looked up.
They passed through a thick gray-black palace wall that stretched far, seemingly unable to see the end. The wall was mottled and damaged from time to time, and seemed to have gone through a long time.
The guards stepped neatly and came to a giant steel noose gate controlled by complex brake cables. Under the dozens of giant crossbows on the top of the palace wall, the guards were in the same position as the guards. After the password was correct, he was released.
Thales opened his mouth blankly, looking at the stars and moonlight in the sky in a daze.
The ground at my feet ranges from muddy wasteland to rough stone ground, to elaborate floor tiles of unknown materials. The immortal lights on both sides are getting bigger and bigger, more refined, and brighter and brighter.
It’s like a huge slope, a magnificent pyramid-like building, rising from the ground to appear in front of you, as a member of the royal guard at ten steps and one guard, as a team of patrol soldiers, when coming and going When his servants nodded to them, Thales suddenly woke up.
They arrived.
Yongxing City is the tallest, largest, most magnificent, and most noble building.
Thales loosened his nerves and dropped his head again.
————————————————————
When he woke up again, it was already the next morning.
Thales found himself in a rough pajamas lying on a padded stone bed.
He was startled slightly, and moved his left hand and left shoulder, which had been bandaged. After realizing that there was no problem, he flexibly jumped off the stone bed and stepped onto the ground made of cold stone.
The cold temperature and rough touch came from the soles of the feet.
Thales frowned.
He took a step forward, touched the same cold stone wall, and looked at the place.
The ceiling is not high, but it is actually made of stone, the same material as the wall, floor and bed surface, giving off a faint chill.
He walked to the window sill, opened the wooden window, and the cold wind came in, making him shiver.
Fortunately, the winter sun, from the high stone window sill, luxuriously sunk into this pure stone room.
But unlike the warm Mindis Hall, even day and sunlight cannot dispel the cold and humid discomfort in this room.
is like...like an abandoned house.
Thales moved in his heart, thinking of where he had been for four years.
He glanced out the window.
The traverser suddenly took a breath.
At the moment when he probed, he saw a crowd as thin as ants, a carriage like a fingernail, a house the size of a checkerboard, a street like a fine pattern-without a doubt, this room was extremely high The place overlooks the square and colorful scenery of the royal capital.
is like a previous life—he said to himself.
At this moment, the only thick wooden door in the room was pushed open.
First-class court lady, Gini Barkovi appeared at the door of the room
"Ms. Ji Ni?" Thales felt relieved when he saw an acquaintance.
"It seems that you are recovering well." Ji Ni's face was a little pale and she didn't seem to be in good spirits, but she still supported her body.
is more than good...
Jini thought, the dagger from the previous day, the next day... this kind of resilience, even the orcs don't have it.
She sighed.
"By the way, Ji Ni! Uh, Ms. Ji Ni!" Thales even forgot to use honorific words in a hurry, he hurriedly stepped forward:
"Yesterday...Yordel, and Gilbert..."
Ji Ni stretched out a hand and interrupted Thales, only listening to her silently saying:
"Don't worry, Gilbert is by your Majesty's side, they have important matters to deal with."
"And Yordel, he is still alive..."
still alive? Thales was shocked, doesn't that mean...
Jini also seemed to realize that what she said was a bit too heavy, she immediately corrected: "He was hit by a few crossbow arrows and is currently recovering from his injuries-thanks to the other secret guards he informed his Majesty in time, the Royal Family The guard will arrive in time."
Thales let out a sigh of relief.
Another secret guard?
Thales thought of the young woman in the cloak.
He saved this message, and before he could digest it, his brain jumped to another matter.
"Also, those assassins, and the Duke Kevin Deer..."
Ji Ni’s eyes became severe, which reminded Thales of those hard training days, and only listened to her saying: "That’s not something you can care about, everything has been dealt with."
"Those problems will not be a problem soon... and you have to trust your father."
My... father?
Thales recalled this strange vocabulary with difficulty—it’s not that he didn’t care, but that after going from Hongfang District to Mindis Hall, he and his nominal "father" only met once, let alone him Treat yourself with that weird attitude
"I asked the servant to prepare hot water and breakfast. Let's take care of myself. We still have important things to do." Jini gave him a serious look.
"Servant?" Thales was taken aback, and quickly turned around to look around this room that looks more like a coffin than a bedroom: "So, we are here..."
Ji Ni nodded tiredly:
"Yes, you are in the largest and most important building in Yongxing City."
"The palace of the highest kings of the stars."
Jini uttered three words blankly:
"Fuxing Palace."
Thales opened his mouth, thinking of the great pyramid-shaped building he saw last night-no wonder it's so high.
He frowned and looked at everything around him.
Mottled walls, dark colors, dark lighting, cold temperatures, hard slates, rough floors, small rooms—compared to Mindis Hall, this place is like a slum.
Jini saw Thales' eyes.
"Why, not used to it?" She folded her arms and looked at Thales' expression with interest.
"No, it's not." Thales waved his hand quickly and shook his head.
He wanted to say something, but after all he sighed and lowered his head.
In fact, he wanted to say that this was his most secure night in the past twenty days.
The hard and cold bed and the rough and uneven floor made Thales rediscover it, and the soft bed in Mindith Hall could not give him a sense of security.
It turned out that... Thales found out sadly... that when he slept best, he was in the arduous abandoned house for four years as a beggar.
But obviously, Ji Ni took his truth as hard-talking, and she smiled sadly:
"I know what you are thinking, yes."
"The palace of the Supreme King is not as splendid and luxurious, exquisite and magnificent as imagined."
Jini walked to the window, her eyes focused on the high Fuxing Palace, countless residents of the kingdom.
"On the contrary...this so-called, the Fuxing Palace in the center of the kingdom is not even as good as an ordinary private house..."
Thales was stunned to see that the arrogant, domineering, and tough court lady, Gini Barkovi, sighed lonely in the next moment:
"It's very narrow."
"Very high."
"It's cold."
Ji Ni turned around, looking at Thales with a complicated expression.
"It's still dark."
———————————————————————
Thales followed Gini Barkovi, stepped on the hard, rough slate floor that is unique to the Fuxing Palace, and walked through the same narrow, cold and dark rooms.
The guards and servants who met on the road bowed their heads and saluted when they saw Ji Ni.
In the interior of this semi-pyramid-shaped palace, the lighting is so poor that even in broad daylight, lights are used to illuminate some tricky corners.
Because of the high altitude, the cold wind continues to pour in from the cracks. The only advantage is that it is often difficult to raise insects in such places.
The narrow aisles and low ceilings set off the atmosphere of the palace to be depressing and uncomfortable, sometimes even appear lifeless.
This place... Thales stuck out his tongue and sighed secretly: It's not like a palace.
is like a mausoleum.
Aren’t the Egyptian pyramids of the previous life just the tombs of the kings with countless ancient history buried underground?
"It's here." Jini stopped suddenly, and she slowly replied indifferently.
"It's...what?" Thales, who had just been wandering, noticed that he and Jini had already walked into an empty dim stone corridor with a double-opened stone door in front of them.
"Go in, boy," Jini did not answer him, but with a deep expression, nodded to Thales: "Be polite."
"What ceremony..." Before Thales was stunned, Ji Ni pressed the stone door and pushed it abruptly!
"Boom!"
Thales looked at the scene in Shimen in surprise: It was a dark room, with only a few corners lit with inextinguishable lights, and the central one was holding a back facing him— —Women's hands?
Taylor was still surprised, but Gini pushed him into the room.
"Boom!"
The stone gate is closed.
Thales managed to gain a foothold, only to find that he had been locked in this stone house by Gini.
"So, it's you, kid?"
At this time, a mellow, nice, fine and charming voice came from the center of the room.
Thales turned around suspiciously and looked at the woman with her back to him.
The woman turned around slowly holding the unextinguishable light.
Thales' eyes lit up.
This is a beauty with an oval face with bright eyes and white teeth. She is thirty years old. Compared with the charming and mature Ji Ni, she is a bit less swift and neat, but she is more charming and charming.
She wears a dark veil and a robe adorned with half a red sun—wait a minute, half a red sun?
Thales was surprised: "Are you... the sacrifice of the Temple of Sunset?"
"Sunset Temple? Ha ha ha..." The beauty chuckled, but Thales didn't feel the slightest tenderness from the laughter, but also tasted a faint indifference.
"Let me take a closer look at you, kid." The beauty approached him with a waist, but Thales frowned: From her, there was no warmth or kindness.
From this woman, he felt something uncomfortable.
"Sure enough," the 30-year-old coquettish beauty lowered herself in front of him, squinted her eyes, and observed Thales: "You are also a pair of gray eyes..."
"Just like your mother."
Thales’ pupils shrank!
mother?
Thales was taken aback for a second.
"Do you know... sorry, ma'am, do you know my mother?" He asked suspiciously, and at the same time remembering Ji Ni's "be polite" order, he quickly changed his honorific language.
"Of course, your mother, um, that's a tough character..." The charming beauty curled her mouth, her eyes coldly: "Didn't Kessel tell you?"
Thales' breathing unconsciously rushed.
"No, ma'am." Thales said embarrassingly: "Except for her name, father... father didn't tell me anything else."
"That's it, okay, you can go out." The charming beauty sneered and shook the inextinguishable lamp in her hand. The two figures flashed in the stone house.
"Tell Kessel, I am ready."
Is this the end? Ji Ni, or that father asked me to meet her...what does this mean?
"Lady," Thales took a deep breath, bowed respectfully with the etiquette learned from Jini: "If you tell me about my mother, I will be grateful. All."
The coquettish beauty covered her mouth and chuckled.
but she immediately turned cold, her voice cold and authentic:
"Since your father didn't tell you, why did you and I tell you?"
Telston is speechless.
but he cannot give up easily:
"But... but that is my mother, I have the right to know! And I will repay you!"
The beauty just sneered and turned around.
"But you are not my son, I have no obligation to tell you. Moreover, I don't need your return."
Thales was choked again, from Yordel to Gilbert, except for his own "father" ~ IndoMTL.com~ He had never encountered such a person.
This—it's really more tugging than the king.
But a pathway seemed to connect instantly in his mind.
is more tugged than the king?
Thales’ brain continues to work--he thought of something.
He took a deep breath and looked at the coquettish beauty.
"That's it."
"I know who you are."
The charming beauty turned her head in surprise
"I heard my father and Gilbert talk about you," Thales frowned tightly, restoring the memory in his mind when he was rescued by Yordle in Mindith Hall.
"I remember." He said slowly.
"You—you are—" Thales took a deep breath, raised his left hand, and looked at the shallow scar on it.
He hesitated for a while, but then categorically said: "You are the bloodline lamp...the lamp used to find his father's bloodlines...the caster of the bloodline magic spell!"
"You are the chief priest of the Temple of Sunset...Li Xiya!"
Charming and beautiful-Li Xiya's face is hard to look immediately.
"You deserve to be your mother's son," she said slowly: "Even her cunning and memory are inherited well."
"Yes, I am Li Xia Allende."
"The chief priest of the Temple of Sunset."
"The sunset goddess, the only spokesperson in the world."
"It will also be the person who verifies the identity of the royal blood for you."
