Monarch of Evernight: Forty-seven traditions and persistence
bsp;Hate flashed across Schil's face and he said: "Not long ago, a group of vampires came to Count Stuka's underground castle. Later, some of them occupied Qingfeng Mountain, and they didn't know what they were going to do. Four hundred For many years, Qingfeng Mountain has been the holy land of our Fengya Tribe, and every generation of ancestors rests there! But due to Count Stuka’s order, we Fengya Tribe’s werewolves cannot enter our holy land!”
Ciel tried to calm down before continuing: "After I came back, I was so angry that I secretly went up to Qingfeng Mountain to see what those vampires were doing on our ancestors' tombs. I'm good at stealth and sneaking, so I got there smoothly. On the top of the mountain, I found several vampires discussing together. They probably never thought that anyone could get close to me, but I accidentally discovered them when I was leaving, and they chased me all the way here. ”
When Siel said this, he began to gasp for breath. His wounds were corroded by blood, and he was no longer able to recover by his own strength, and his injuries kept getting worse.
Qianye glanced at the wounds on his body and asked, "Do you want me to help you treat the wounds?"
Seal instinctively shrank back, then shook his head and said, "I need to eat."
Qianye nodded, took out a few large pieces of dried meat for dry food, and threw them to the werewolf boy. After thinking about it, he threw another piece of blood crystal.
Xil devoured Qianye's week's worth of food in just three or five mouthfuls. He held the blood crystal, hesitated for a moment and finally swallowed it in one gulp. A moment later, the large wound on the werewolf boy's back rolled through a blazing dark force visible to the naked eye, and then the rolled flesh began to slowly close.
Blood crystals are as effective to dark creatures as black crystals are to human cultivators, except that they are particularly effective on vampires. However, the strong self-healing ability of the werewolf boy made Qianye a little envious. The dark race is indeed the darling of this world. They are born with many powerful innate abilities, while humans need to practice hard and use the special effects of various techniques to make up for it.
"What secret did you hear and you are going to be hunted all the way?" Qianye asked.
Xil looked at Qianye warily, and said slowly but firmly: "I can't tell you, and I won't tell anyone except the top of the peaks!"
Qianye smiled and said: "If it weren't for me, you would have died a long time ago. You also can't tell this secret to the top of the peaks. And from what the vampire viscount just said, their holy son is already taking action. .Are you really sure you won’t tell me? This may delay the matter.”
Siel still shook his head, "No! This secret can only be told to the top of the mountains!"
Qianye frowned slightly and tried to persuade him again. But no matter what Qianye said, Xier only said one sentence repeatedly: "This secret can only be told to the top of the mountains."
Most werewolves are like Seal, extremely stubborn, unable to adapt at all, and sometimes even seem a little stupid. Because of this, they will be the best warriors on the battlefield, but it is difficult for them to become excellent commanders leading an army, and they are not suitable to cooperate with the lords of a party.
People like William are completely alien in the werewolf tribe.
Even if I kill the werewolf boy now, I still can't figure out the secret. However, Qianye doesn't care much about this so-called secret. The vampires and demons in the dark race like to play conspiracies, scheming and intrigues all the time, especially such a shady-sounding thing. What the werewolf boy heard It was a big secret to him, and its true meaning probably didn't matter at all.
Qianye didn't intend to force Xier, but just said: "It doesn't matter if you don't want to say it. That's all I can help you."
Siel's eyes flickered, he looked at Qianye, and suddenly said: "I can tell you the information about Count Stuka."
Qianye was startled, "Why do you think I am interested in the count's news?"
"You are so powerful, you must be a big shot among humans, and you will never be a hunter or adventurer. A person like you suddenly appears here alone, and who else is worthy except Count Stuka for hundreds of kilometers nearby? Are you concerned? I don’t think the other viscounts care about you."
Qianye smiled slightly. This werewolf boy was unexpectedly smart. Although he had a lot of stubborn persistence, he couldn't help but feel more favorable to him in his heart.
This time, two bottles of spirits appeared in Qianye’s hand, and he threw one over, “Let’s talk about it, then?”
Most of the dark races like to drink, and Sil is no exception. However, he glanced at the vampire corpses on the ground and asked hesitantly: "Is it right here? What if other vampires come after me?"
Qianye said nonchalantly: "As long as it's not that Earl, it doesn't matter. If they come, it will save me some trouble." He still had two master-made bullets on him at the moment, and three more The Song Dynasty clan specially made the silver-refined Fiery Sun Bullet. Coupled with the suppression of his own blood energy, as well as the bonus of the Twin Flowers and the Original Wings, he really didn't take one or two low-ranking viscounts of the vampires seriously.
Xil was aroused by Qianye's calm tone. He found a big rock and sat down, then told all the secrets he knew.
Stuka is the Nerubian Count who rules this area. He is only the lowest count, and his age is approaching the end of the line according to Nerubian standards. In the final stage of its life, the strength of the spider demon race will not continue to increase, but may begin to decline. Ordinarily, Stuka should have started to select a successor to inherit his title and territory.
Most of the dark races have long lives and respect the strong. Therefore, when they enter their twilight years, most of them will choose to transfer their power and resources to the most outstanding descendants. They will either wait quietly for the end of their lives, or enter A long sleep to delay the coming of death.
But except for the blood race, if other dark races want to enter slumber, they must either have the strength of a duke or above, or possess special secret methods, and they must consume massive resources. No matter which one, the gap between Stuka is too far, and the only way is to obtain the essence and blood of a powerful person.
But according to Schill, the Count of Stuka was obviously not willing to let his life go silent, so he actively participated in the affairs of the upper continent, hoping to serve a certain big shot effectively, so as to gain recognition and be rewarded with a few drops of blood. .
The essence and blood from a truly powerful person has various miraculous effects. It can activate the blood of young descendants and heal fatal injuries. If used on Stuka, the most intuitive effect is to extend life.
In order to obtain the essence and blood of the superiors, Stuka did everything possible. Not only did he firmly hold all the resources on the territory in his own hands, he also desperately searched for and exploited various vassals and tribes. Once someone disobeys, the count will incur crazy revenge and **** suppression.
Werewolves are a weak race in this area. The Fengya tribe has even had the sacred mountain where their ancestors rested was taken away from them. Naturally, they are full of hatred for the count. There are many tribes in a similar situation to Fengya. Even werewolves suffered like this, and the fate of the small races outside the four major races was even more miserable, and they were often hunted and expelled.
The entire earldom is actually in a state of turmoil.
This is good news that Qianye did not expect at all. He originally chose this place largely because the earl did not have a strong heir. Without strong leadership, the resistance encountered after occupation will be much weaker.
Now it seems that the only obstacle to the westward advance is Count Stuka, who is approaching madness. As long as the count is defeated, his seemingly powerful army will immediately fall apart. Moreover, Qianye felt that the closer to the end of his life, the less willing the Earl of Spider Demon was to risk his life.
Xil took off a necklace of animal bones from his neck, handed it to Qianye, and said, "I owe you a life. This is my token. If you need help in the future, you can hold the necklace. Come to me. Even if it requires a **** battle, I will fulfill this promise."
Qianye suddenly smiled and said: "If I plan to drive away Stuka and replace him, will you help me? I will set aside a piece of land for you to live in."
Ciel hesitated now, sharing territory with the human race? Although there are many such gray areas in the Realm of Eternal Night, even in the upper continent, it is still a bit unbelievable for the werewolf boy to make a contract with a human race.
Qianye is not in a hurry and is waiting for Xier's decision.
The werewolf boy glanced at the vampire corpses on the ground. After a moment, his eyes became firm and he said: "As long as you promise to return the holy mountain to us and not slaughter my people, the sharp fang will be on your side. ! ”
"Yes, I promise you."
Siel slit his wrist and poured the hot blood on the necklace. The beast's teeth immediately sucked in the blood, and his whole body turned dark red. This is the most sacred ritual for werewolves, and the promise made in this way requires the entire tribe to defend it with their lives. It seems that his status in the Sharp Fang is extremely high, otherwise he would not be able to easily decide the future of the entire tribe.
Sier handed the necklace to Qianye and said solemnly: "I don't believe in you, but I believe in Sir William and the top of the mountains. If one day I find that you have used the sharp teeth and failed to abide by your own Promise, then no matter where I am, no matter how many years pass, I will find you and kill you!”
Qianye immediately laughed and asked, "Do you think you can do it?"
The werewolf boy suddenly suffocated, and his momentum immediately subsided. There was a huge gap in combat power between him and Qianye at the moment, and it would take at least several years of hard work to make up for it. But Qianye is very young even by human standards, which means he has a long future. By then, who knows how powerful he will be.
However, there is no word fear in the werewolf's dictionary. Sil said very seriously: "If I can't kill you, then I will continue to fight until I die!"
Qianye sighed and said: "For William's sake, I can only tell you that excessive bravery is the same as stupidity."
"Werewolves have their own traditions and persistence!" Siel replied persistently.
After a while, Sil's physical strength and force power had recovered a lot, so the stubborn werewolf boy insisted on leaving by himself.
Qianye then cleaned up the battlefield and swept away all the valuable loot. Although none of the equipment, including Duras, was of any taste to Qianye, now that he had two trading lines, one overt and one undercover, between Song Zining and Beard Lao Dao, these vampire equipment were equivalent to gold coins.
After hearing Count Stuka’s crazy behavior, Qianye became interested in the secrets told by Sil. Although the werewolf boy refused to say anything, he actually revealed a key location, Qingfeng Mountain.
The vampires involved in this secret must still be there, waiting for Viscount Duras to return and answer his orders. As long as Qianye moves quickly enough, he can find them in Qingfeng Mountain. According to Schier, there was no count among those vampires, which made Qianye even more interested in finding out.
Qianye unfolded the regional map, determined the direction, and rushed towards the settlement of the Fang Fang tribe.
