Chapter 1820 The Story of the Year
Chapter 1820 A Hundred Years Story
Although Xia De has never held a serious promotion ceremony, he knows that the promotion ceremony of ring warlocks is quite complicated.In the beginning, the doctor indirectly dragged the group members into the "Lake View Manor God's Fall Incident" because of the "fake Philosopher's Stone", an alternative material for the promotion of the fifth ring to the sixth ring. Of course, it may also be purely because of the doctor's bad luck.
Fortunately, Rezia is richer than Dr. Schneider. She just needs to be mentally prepared and invite Shad, who helped Dorothy to advance, to help her when the time comes.
In short, although Leiziya has been tired recently, all tasks are progressing in an orderly manner.Tomorrow is Saturday, she accepted Xia De's invitation to go to the opera house tomorrow night, and joked with a smile:
"It's a pity that Adelina is not here this time. I don't even know who to look for to watch the door for us."
Saying goodbye to Rezia, Xia De took advantage of his free time in the morning to go to the broken house outside the village of Lower Greor Village near the public cemetery in Green Lake City, and found Mr. Nicholas Green, a ghoul living in the underground tomb, and regretted not seeing the interesting and philosophical sheep this time.
Old Mr. Green really kept the agreement and still lives here.After being called out by Xia De and accepting the roast chicken as a gift, Xia De explained the purpose of his trip:
"Next week, I invited the descendants of Edwards to have a dinner together. All the living members of the fifth and sixth generations came, and besides that, two dead ones also came."
The time was actually tonight, and only one person died, but Mr. Green was related to the "ancestor" on the island, so Shade didn't tell the truth:
"Do you want to come together? Meet your family members, I don't think they will mind if you become an undead. At least, neither your son nor daughter will mind."
Mr. Green, who was still squatting aside and gnawing on the roast chicken, stopped eating, and he was in a daze:
"Is it a family gathering? I really didn't expect that there would be such a day."
He didn't ask Xia De for details, but stared at the half-eaten roast chicken in his hand for a long time.Xia De didn't bother him until he spoke up himself:
"I'm not going."
He opened his mouth, threw the remaining half of the chicken in, chewed the meat and bones, and swallowed them together:
"If I go to meet them, once the ancestors know, they will not contact me again. At that time, no one will give you any information."
"Actually, when you meet me now, your ancestors might have expected you to continue talking."
"In fact, I still know a lot of things, but I didn't decide whether to say it last time. You can ask, only one question, and I will tell you everything I know."
He burped and leaned comfortably against the wall of the dilapidated house.There is the sound of pattering rain outside, and the spring in the Green Lake area is really rainy:
"Just take it as a thank you for fulfilling my mother's last wish. Although you didn't say it, I think you held that dinner at the Green Lake Hotel, right?"
Shad did not answer:
"Let me ask a question: How much do you know about the whereabouts and current situation of the dead Edwards?"
Mr. Green thought for a while and sighed:
"A completely unexpected question, yes, yes, I know it all, I know it all. Why are you so surprised, do you think that I really just hang around reading books and doing experiments every day? Let's talk about it from the next generation to the next.
The six people in the sixth generation are all alive, you know better than me; there are five people in the fifth generation I belong to, and theoretically three people died.But in fact, among the three people who died, except for me right in front of you, the son of Uncle Hohenheim, the eldest son of the fourth generation, and the daughter of Uncle Edward, the second son, they were not dead at all. "
"what?"
Xia De was surprised:
"Not dead? What's going on?"
"Before they were dying, the ancestors took the potion of feigning death for them, and stole their bodies after they were buried."
The ghoul shrugged humanely:
"So you see, after four generations of the family, I'm actually the only one who is truly dead. Ha~ Regardless of Uncle Alphonse's two children, it is said that they are very powerful on their own, but the other two have relied on their ancestors to live to this day. The ancestors saved them, why can't they save me? This is one of the reasons why I don't want to go to the island, he is too partial to me!"
"This"
The old ghoul opened up the conversation box, and chattered endlessly:
"If I didn't know that the corpses of the three uncles of the four generations were all turned into ghouls after they died, I'm afraid I would be even more unhappy."
He seemed to have found a balance from it, but Xia De couldn't help but said:
"I saw your uncles a few days ago. I'm afraid they are not the same as you."
"what happened?"
Mr. Green was puzzled, and Shad explained:
"They don't look as human as you, but they are not ghouls, they are more like liches. Their souls are not in their bodies at all, so they are almost immortal. Even if their bodies are destroyed, they can be reborn. But if I read correctly, your soul is in the body in front of you. So although they are not very intelligent, all three are very strong, and there is still room for further improvement. But you can only rely on your own wisdom to teach yourself."
Old Mr. Green has taught himself to be an expert in necromology from books, so of course he knows what "Lich" means:
"This"
He opened his mouth, shock in his cloudy yellow eyes.For a while, Xia De actually felt guilty for telling the other party the truth.
It took old Mr. Green a long time to recover from the shock:
"The two people who died in five generations of suspended animation: Uncle Hohenheim's son, Jarvis Edwards, was arranged by the ancestors to join the [Tyranny Club], and he is now a believer in the [God of Tyranny]; Uncle Edward's daughter, Nadia Furren, was arranged by the ancestors to become a member of the [Dragon Feast Sect] composed of followers of the evil god [Dragon Eater]. However, my cousin has not heard from me for a long time."
[Tyranny Club] and [Longxiang Cult], like [Drowned Cult], secretly supported the organization of the thirteen-ring fortune teller, but they were hidden very deeply, and Xia De has never encountered it so far.
"In this way, I know the whereabouts of six people from the sixth generation, and I also know the whereabouts of five people from the fifth generation. Four people from the fourth generation, and the three boys are now liches. Only your mother's whereabouts are unknown to me."
Xia De looked at Mr. Green, who nodded with a sad tone:
"I respected my mother's will. After my mother passed away, I buried her in a traditional lake. She really died, and her soul returned to the central island of Green Lake. But according to my investigations over the years, my mother's soul was unwilling to be controlled by her ancestors. She was a kind person, and she was unwilling to be controlled by her ancestors to do bad things, so she ran away. I believe that her soul was bound by her ancestors and could not escape, so she still wanders in this land, but I can't find her."
Xia De was silent for a moment:
"Do you understand the five members of the second and third generations?"
"I don't know much about this. They are all the dead before the Green Lake Town was abandoned. I have never seen them before I was alive, and my mother didn't talk much. The news I know so far is that the eldest daughter of the second generation, Ruster Edwards, is said to be the only one who died. She is the ancestor's first child. The ancestor probably knew what family affection is at that time."
Thinking of the scene in which she was killed by Laplace Klein Howard in his memory as a little girl, Shad pursed his lips and shook his head.
The old wight saw his movement, but only sighed, and went on:
"My great-grandfather, Sloth Edwards, the second son of the second generation, voluntarily accepted the transformation because of the fear of death before he died, accepted the power of evil things, and turned into a group of wriggling tentacles. He has been assisting the ancestors on the island to complete various tasks. When the weather is fine, I go out for a walk at night, and occasionally I can see him walking on the water."
Now, Xia De finally knew who the tentacle man was.
"For three generations, my grandfather, the last lord of Green Lake Town, Pride Edwards, is the second son. He encountered a terrible thing demon."
The ghoul shivered. Normal undead don't have such fear:
"He was transformed into a demon by his ancestors and demons. Yes, it's quite a terrifying thing. As for the grandfather's elder brother, the eldest son of the third generation, Envi Edwards, who died young, is actually not dead. He was kept in a secret room under the well by his grandfather since he was a child, and experimented with various elixir.
Old Mr. Green dispelled the fear, this time with a sad sigh:
"This is a family scandal, young man, I really hate to tell you this, but I know you need this information."
Xia De's eyes sharpened, and he felt that he was about to hear something great.
"Grandfather's younger sister, the youngest daughter of the three generations, Gratoni, actually loves my grandfather and her elder brother, Pride Edwards. After my grandfather was transformed into a demon, she also voluntarily accepted the power of the demon, and after experimenting and drinking the potion that her ancestors obtained from the [Dragon Row], she gained the power of a dragon and became a half-demon and half-dragon monster."
Old Mr. Green covered his face:
"Compared to what happened to my mother's soul, compared to the threats my children encountered, and compared to what happened to my other blood relatives, the most difficult thing for me to understand is that the ancestors were actually infected with the power of demons. Those evil spirits from the third era are the enemies of all intelligent life. I respect and respect the ancestors, but I don't understand his behavior."
Xia De understood Mr. Green's mood at this time, and he concluded softly:
"Ghosts, evil things, immortals, demons, experimental half-dragons, three liches, hidden souls, you are a ghoul, two cultists, ordinary people, and ring warlocks. You are right. Your family composition is really complete. Oh, the ghost refers to the eldest daughter of the second generation who died early. She left the Green Lake area earlier and came back a few days ago."
In fact, there are "witches", but this can't be said.Moreover, Xia De didn't know whether Megan and Audrey's becoming witches was also planned.
Mr. Green laughed dryly:
"More than 200 years, all the stories, all the fates, are condensed in the discussion we just had. Edwards, Green Lake, everything was planned long ago, the family that proliferates, the roots that spread, the descendants from generation to generation, and each person is like this. Look, the ancestor has done so many things. Do you really think you can beat him?"
PS: Because I accidentally forgot the location of the "core spirit rune" in the language of sublimation, I revised the description of the language of sublimation at the end of the last chapter.Those who are interested can take a look, only the language of sublimation has been modified, and no other changes are involved.
