Looking forward to another world.
Chapter 1177 No bloodline left?
Chapter 1177 No bloodline left?
Lige had already asked Ivy and Leo about the matter of the high priest.
Therefore, he knew a lot of information about the high priest.
The high priest is not only the strongest in the entire hidden world, his strength is far beyond that of ordinary priests, and he is also a fictional adaptable person who can use predictive magic.
It is said that the high priest is almost 90 years old this year, which means he has a lot of experience in the temple.
Therefore, in Lige's imagination, the high priest should be an old woman, just like those old popes, kind but also intellectual and majestic.
However, when the high priest actually appeared before him, Lige realized how wrong he was.
Because, although he is an old man who is almost 90 years old, the high priest looks like a noble lady who has just turned 30, with delicate features and even a face full of collagen.
The aura she gave off was not that of an old person. She was not kind or majestic at all. She was clearly the high priestess in the temple, a clergyman who believed in "God", but she gave people the feeling of being more like a witch, with eyes full of wisdom and a hint of cunning.
If saints like Belluddi and Naisha are pure and innocent, then the high priestess is a person who is very worldly-wise and has seen all kinds of human affairs, but she just laughs it off. Not only does she not sink deep into the mud, but she also draws everyone who approaches her into her game and plays with them to her heart's content.
In short, this man did not look like a priest at all, let alone the head of priests.
"Are you really the high priest?"
Even Liz began to doubt and couldn't help but speak out timidly.
At this time, Lige and his party had already left the hall and were taken to a room.
The room was a bit like a chapel, with statues of gods placed deep inside.
Lige glanced at the Rubik's Cube-shaped statue, then calmly withdrew his gaze.
It is worth mentioning that the only people brought here by the high priest were Lige and Liz.
After returning to the temple, Ivy and Leo's mission was completed. After saying goodbye to Liz, the two were taken away by other priests, apparently for a reward.
Euroelle and Lilith were outside the room and did not come in with them.
After all, what Lige and Liz wanted to ask next would be somewhat private. Although Lige himself did not mind being heard by Euroaili and Lilith, the high priest seemed to be trying to avoid suspicion.
Therefore, only Liger and Liz entered the room, while Euroelle and Lilith stayed outside.
In response to Liz's question, the high priest asked instead of answering.
"What's wrong? Doesn't it look like it?"
The witch in front of him chuckled.
"No, no...it's just..."
Liz thought she had been a little rude, and so she became a little incoherent.
"I know what Your Highness is thinking." The high priest didn't seem to mind and said with a smile: "Everyone thinks so. They all think that I don't look like a priest."
"But there is nothing I can do. I am the oldest, most powerful, and most experienced person in the temple. The former high priest told me many things and treated me as someone he could manipulate at will, ordering me to do this and that."
"As a result, after the previous high priest stepped down and retired, I became the person with the most achievements and the longest seniority in the entire temple."
The implication is that she didn't want to be the high priestess, but she was pushed into this position inexplicably...
Hmm... I always feel like this guy is in Versailles.
"I really can't tell that you are the most senior person in the temple."
Li Ge muttered this in his mind.
However, upon hearing these words, the high priest was very happy.
"Isn't it? This is also what I am most proud of. Unlike other fictional adaptable people, I don't look like a human at all."
Is she scolding me?
No, there is still some information in this sentence.
The so-called fictional means that it does not exist originally.
Fictional aptitude, this is also a kind of aptitude that should not exist, but it will appear in those who also carry the qualities that should not appear.
Some people have a third eye...
Some people have a third hand...
Some people have thick fur all over their bodies...
When humans develop characteristics that they should not have, they are very likely to have fictional aptitude.
Lige has obtained the fictional aptitude because he does not belong to this world and is not a person of this world.
The Valkyrie of Queen Distis, Shardi Himalafuzi, possesses super senses that ordinary people do not have, and therefore has the ability to be in a fantasy world.
Since the high priest is also a fictional aptitude person, he naturally has some characteristics that ordinary people do not have.
What she said now probably meant that the reason why she could maintain the appearance of a mature and charming woman at this age was all thanks to this feature, right?
Perhaps it is because of her special physique that she is able to do this.
After all, witches like in fairy tales don't really exist in this world. Unless one uses forbidden magic rituals or rare and precious elixirs of immortality, no matter how powerful a magician is, he will not be like the witches in the legend, who not only will not age but will always maintain a youthful appearance.
of course……
"The potion of immortality. We also have the recipe for refining this rare potion preserved in our temple."
"It is one of the precious ancient books that has been handed down from the vanished ancient magic civilization. Even in this secluded place, not everyone is qualified to read it, and there are even fewer people who have the ability to prepare this potion."
"If Your Highness is interested, we can also provide you with the recipe?"
The high priest was like a real witch and began to seduce the little princess.
"No, no need..."
Liz quickly shook her head, as if she wanted to keep her distance from the high priest.
It is conceivable that the witch-like behavior of the high priestess must have been a bit too much for the innocent little princess to bear, right?
Seeing that the other party was still trying to harm his little wife, Li Ge quickly interrupted him.
“None of these things matter.”
As soon as these words were spoken, the high priest immediately asked a question in return.
"So what is important?"
Lige almost choked.
This woman...why doesn't she play by the rules? !
"Aren't you a magician of the predictive system?" Li Ge was not afraid of the stage and directly retorted: "Didn't you predict the purpose of our visit?"
Upon hearing this, the high priest actually rolled his eyes.
"Do you think that foreknowledge is such a convenient thing?" The high priest shrugged his slender shoulders, looking helpless, and said, "This kind of advanced magic that can peek into the future is obviously not a power that can be used anytime and anywhere, right?"
"If it's just something insignificant and not too far in the future, then it can be predicted relatively easily."
"But the further into the future we are, the more significant the impact it will have on history and the world itself, and the more difficult it will be to predict."
At this point, the high priest gave an example.
"Take Her Highness for example. She is already 15 years old this year and has lived in the outside world for more than a decade. However, it was not until recently that I suddenly felt something in my heart and activated a premonition, and only then did I realize Her Highness's existence."
"In order to predict His Highness's location, condition, and future development as accurately as possible, I almost used up all my magic power and consumed some of my vitality. In the end, I relied on the assistance of other priests and the power of some precious treasures to successfully make the prediction."
"But even so, I can only confirm where Your Highness was at the time, and "see" the future in which those two little guys, Ivy and Leo, brought you back here."
"As for the other things, I can't see them anyway."
The high priest's words reminded Lige of the existence of Belluddi.
Although Beiludi did not learn predictive magic like the high priest, she was able to foresee the coming of some disasters.
This kind of foresight is also uncontrollable, and can only see very limited fragments of the future.
"Sure enough, predicting the future is not only troublesome but also very intriguing if you want to actually realize it."
Li Ge was suddenly inspired.
“Is that so?” The high priest sighed with the same feeling, and actually complained: “Such an inconvenient magic, I don’t know what was wrong with me that I actually went to learn it, and studied it for more than ten years.”
"It took me more than ten years. I was in my prime at that time. It's really not worth it for a girl to spend more than ten years of her most precious youth learning such inconvenient magic."
"Oh, I regret it so much. I wish I hadn't been attracted by the idea of 'predicting the future'."
Seeing the high priest start to mutter, Lige and Liz were both shocked.
Fortunately, not long after, the high priest's attitude changed completely.
"That being said, I can actually guess what Your Highness wants to ask me." The high priest suddenly looked straight at Liz and said, "Your Highness wants to know your life experience, who your parents are, and where they are now, right?"
Hearing this, Liz's eyes lit up immediately.
"Do you know where my parents are?"
At that moment, Liz hurriedly asked.
The former king of the Kingdom of Jinas was not her biological father, and she was not actually a princess of the Kingdom of Jinas.
If that was the case, why was she sent to the palace and treated as his own daughter by Hemulin?
He is not his biological father, so where are his biological father and mother?
And Grandma Mia...where is she now?
These are what Liz urgently wants to know.
In response, the high priest continued to look at Liz for a while, and then spoke softly.
"I do know something."
"No, it should be said that after learning about His Highness's existence, the priests of the temple and I spent a lot of energy and finally found out a lot of things."
"That's why, although I'm not sure about His Highness's condition, I have some rough guesses about His Highness's background."
The high priest paused for a moment, then spoke with deep meaning.
"If Your Highness wants to know, I will tell you everything I have investigated and speculated."
"But you may need some psychological preparation."
"Because, what I am about to say next, even the priests of the temple were shocked for a long time when they learned about it."
This sounds like a deliberate bluff.
The little princess was naturally easily intimidated. Not only did she look timid, she also swallowed her saliva unconsciously. Finally, she stretched out a hand and tightly grasped the corner of Lige's clothes, like a frightened bird, giving people a trembling feeling.
Lige frowned and was about to warn the high priest to stop when the little princess took a deep breath and looked determined.
"Please tell me." Liz said courageously, "I want to know my life experience. I don't want to be kept in the dark anymore."
"please!"
As she spoke, the little princess bowed to the high priest.
But her bow made the high priest a little flustered.
"No, no, no, you don't have to do that. I will tell you, Your Highness." The high priest not only dodged Liz's bow, but also waved his hands repeatedly, saying: "You are the honorable Reinnail, the king of our distant ancestors, and naturally our king as well."
"You are the most noble royal family in this world, and you have the most noble blood flowing in your body."
"So please don't be so polite to me."
It seems that even the high priest with a witch-like personality has respect and love for Reinnail.
Although the high priest is the person with the highest status in the entire hidden world, even in the ancient magic civilization, he is second only to the queen. Even when facing ordinary royal members, he does not need to be too humble. However, Reinnail is not only a royal family, but also a heroic family that once led all mankind to survive in this world.
A hero, even a high priest with great power, needs to be respected.
Eleven thousand years have passed since the destruction of the ancient magic civilization. Now they have finally welcomed back the noble descendants of heroes and the royal bloodline. Naturally, the high priest would not let Liz bow to him.
then……
"Since Your Highness is mentally prepared, let me tell you something first."
The high priest helped Liz up and his expression became serious and solemn.
"First of all, I want to tell you that there is something fishy about your existence itself."
Strange?
What does it mean?
Lige and Liz were both slightly stunned.
Seeing this, the high priest did not keep anyone in suspense and spoke bluntly.
"We looked through the historical records left by our ancestors and confirmed one thing."
"That is, after the "disaster" broke out, there were no surviving bloodlines of the royal family left in this world."
"In other words, after the demise of the ancient magic civilization, it is impossible for the royal family to continue to reproduce in the outside world."
"Your existence itself is problematic."
