Sir Aven I Blood Pact

The secret room where George Donald slept was not as brilliant as I imagined. I think that since he is the ancestor, the place where he slept should be very solemn and grand.But what is in front of me now is just a bedroom that has been abandoned for many years.After illuminating the entire bedroom with a torch, I asked Aiwen puzzled, isn't this the place where he sleeps?

Alvin smiled and replied, of course not.

I held the torch up in front of him and stared at him.Ai Wen stopped laughing, coughed a few times, and explained: "Actually, I only know that this is the place where he sleeps, but I don't know where he is placed. Even my father, I'm afraid he doesn't know." I know. It is said that after Pope George fell into a deep sleep, some of the popes in the past came down to visit him, but they did not find Pope George here, and then they were busy governing the country, so they forgot about it."

Next, Ivan used a torch to find candlesticks in several bedrooms and lit them up.The whole bedroom is similar to the layout of royal bedrooms in European countries in the fourteenth century.From the incomplete bed curtains, tables, chairs and benches, it can be seen that this bedroom must have been lived by a very high-ranking person.

Ivan briefly talked about the time when this man named George Donald was asleep.

In AD 39, the Elder Charles L. Angus forcibly abdicated George Donald on the grounds of 'incompetence to rule'.According to historical records, when Charles asked George to abdicate, no one was present in George's bedroom except the two of them. No one knew what the two said to each other and discussed.Later, when Charles declared himself Pope, George disappeared with his wife and nephew, just like the world disappeared.

Over the ensuing decades, attempts have been made to crack this mystery, mostly in vain.After that, the "Public Nobility-A System" drafted by Charles triggered a dispute between nobles and commoners.In the 105th year of the Blood Era, Charles was assassinated, and the war between the nobles and the commoners was out of control.The civilians certainly believed that the nobles had assassinated Charles, but the nobles did not admit it, and the two sides had been in a stalemate for nearly 17 years.

However, when both sides had almost exhausted their manpower and material resources, an unexpected person pulled the whole situation back.He is George Donald.He actually appeared intact in front of everyone.His appearance surprised the nobles and civilians alike. At the same time, both sides respected the founder of Essatan very much, so the war subsided.

Then, under the rule of the awakened George Donald, Essatan finally returned to its former peace.And he himself told everyone that he actually discussed it with Charles at the beginning. He fell asleep and made Charles the pope. But what he didn't expect was that Charles' system triggered a struggle between the nobles and the common people. Thus disturbing his deep sleep.

After that, George awakened his nephew and let him continue to rule the entire Essatan, while he continued to sleep in their world with his dear wife.

"Why is he sleeping?" I asked after listening to Ivan's narration.

"This, no one knows, and he didn't say it himself. I guess only Charles knows." Ivan shook his head.

"And then what?"

"Later, Thomas Donald, the nephew of Pope George, took over the position of patriarch, and has been adhering to the belief of Pope George to rule the city of Zolai in peace." Aiwen said, "I will tell you later. Well, let me tell you something about the time when Pope George was still in power."

I'd love to keep listening to him.

"After Pope George fled here with the remaining vampires of this family to establish a country, he began to plan the selection of vampire knights as a traditional vampire knight as soon as he stabilized. But it is a pity, because there were knights among the tribe who escaped at that time. There were very few qualified people, so Pope George had no choice but to reduce the number of knights, and at the same time lowered the selection conditions. In this way, eight suitable people were selected to be vampire knights." Ivan said.

"Wait, didn't you say that seven people are selected every five years? Why is there one more?" I interrupted.

He smiled and answered me: "Yes, it is true that seven people are selected every five years, but this is the first batch of knights for Pope George. At that time, he did not limit the number of people selected. If there is a suitable one, I think There may be more. And what I want to say is about this eighth person."

"That man's name is Nari Andrew. And he has a twin brother named William Andrew. The two people look almost identical, but the only thing that can tell them apart is that the younger brother William is a The left hand is missing. Both brothers participated in the selection of knights, and their results were the same, but William only had one hand. According to the family rules, he did not meet the conditions of knights. Therefore, William was unfortunately brushed off .”

"William, who has always been cheerful, has always faced everyone with a smile and was very confident in front of everyone. However, the loss of the Cavaliers made William suddenly a different person. He became tyrannical and even self-harmed. His parents took He had no choice but was very distressed, so he tried everything possible to find Pope George and asked if there was any way to get William into the position of knight. The kind-hearted Pope George had heard about William a long time ago, so he ignored the opposition of the elders , so that William was selected as a knight, becoming the first one-armed knight in the history of Essatan."

"The settlement in William's heart has been opened. In order to repay his parents and Pope George, he worked very hard to do every task assigned by Pope George, and he also completed all the knight training. The pope saw William's hard work and loyalty, as well as his love for knights, so he held a meeting and wanted to promote him to be the commander of the knights. However, he was once again unanimously denied by the elders. They believed that the one-armed vampire was a His status as a knight is already very benevolent and honorable, how can the commander let a handicapped person take the position."

It's kind of discriminatory against people with disabilities.I didn't interrupt Ivan, and I condemned this vampire in my heart for discriminating against disabled people just like some human beings.

"This matter was suppressed by the elders, and when Nari learned that his younger brother was valued by George, he felt jealous. He secretly said some seemingly insignificant things as William's scandal and quietly spread to many people. Later, due to the public opinion of the elders and all the clansmen, Pope George deposed William as a knight, but Pope George still didn't think that William would have such a scandal, so he secretly found William, and the two stayed in the After talking in Pope George's study for a whole night, no one knew why William disappeared."

"Missing!?" I was surprised, why does this vampire like to play missing?

"Yes. After about a few decades, someone found William's body in the underground chamber of the castle. His head was cut off and turned into a pile of ashes. If a vampire is cut off, he is dead, no Will be resurrected again." Ai Wen said.Vampires have always been called the undead, and the way they can die, apart from being sunburned, pierced by a cross in the heart, or by cutting off their heads.

"Could it be that Pope George did it?" I asked him suspiciously.

"No one knows the truth about this." Ivan shook his head, "Also, let me tell you one thing, Pope George has a secret passage in this bedroom, which can lead directly to the castle dungeon. But it has always been No one found it. And I guess that the place where Pope George really slept at that time may be somewhere in that dark passage."

After Ai Wen finished speaking, he began to search everywhere for places where organs could be used.I looked at his busy figure, and couldn't help but start a series of things he told me.

How did Aiwen know that there is a secret passage here?

William disappeared after talking to George, and George disappeared after talking to Charles.George was involved in both incidents. Is there some kind of connection?Or is there some unknown secret in it?Or is this the same reason as Anwar wanting to enter the Sanctuary?

So I now make a few assumptions.

First of all, suppose that George wanted to do a very secret thing, but he couldn't do it by himself, so he took a fancy to William's strength and asked him to help him, but he didn't expect that William couldn't do it at all. That thing, died, so George had to think otherwise, maybe he'd do it himself.

So if the first hypothesis is true, then it is the turn of the second hypothesis.

Assuming that George told Charles about this matter, the two reached an agreement, and George felt that he should go out and do it himself, and it had to be done without anyone finding out, then it would be best to use George's deep sleep An excuse, so this matter was established.Then, Charles was killed. George didn't think about this happening, so he couldn't wake up from his 'sleep'. After dealing with the affairs, he used the excuse of sleeping to leave everyone's eyes and ears to continue his matter. .

If the second assumption is true, then come the third assumption.

George, Charles, William, the secret between the three was discovered by Anwar, so Anwar also wanted to do what George couldn't do back then, so he laid out this series of things, the great war 200 years ago, to The escape now.But why, Anwar wants to deal with Ivan?Maybe it's not just jealousy?Also, why did Anwar want to enter the sanctuary so much?What in the sanctuary is attracting him?And isn't the sanctuary where Mellon once lived?So what did Mellon know?

This last assumption raises too many questions.But my intuition tells me that I can be sure that George, Charles, William and Anwar must have a common purpose.

"Why are you in a daze?" Aiwen found that I had been staring blankly, walked up to me and stared at me.

"Ah?" I sniffed a few times and asked him, "Do you have any rumors about secret treasures?"

"Treasure?" Ai Wen was stunned for a moment, perhaps surprised by my words.He shook his head: "Where did the treasures come from here? When the tribe moved into this mountain, they were empty-handed. Except for some livestock such as cattle and sheep, there is nothing else of value."

If there is no treasure, what kind of things attract them?When the world fights, it's nothing more than fame, profit, and money.They thrived in this isolated place, what could they have to fight for?

"Hello? Are you okay?" Ivan shook my shoulder.

"It's okay." I don't think it's time to tell him what I think, "Oh, by the way, did you find anything unusual?"

"No." Ivan shook his head, "I've pressed and pinched every corner, and there is nothing like a switch."

After the two of us groped here for a while, Ai Wen sighed: "Xiao, let's go back, it seems that we have nothing to gain today, and I haven't seen any traces of my father's visit, it seems that he has not been here here."

Alvin's father?Ah yes, how could I forget him.In addition, if my hypothesis is true, Ivan's father must have discovered what George and the others are going to do, and his disappearance now may be the same as William's disappearance.

"By the way, Xiao." Ivan said to me after extinguishing the candle in the bedroom, "I'll take you to see a photo before I leave."

photo?very curious.But naturally, a name came to my mind—William Andrew.

Sure enough, as I expected.Ai Wen took me to the place where the faces of the vampire family were placed before. We turned from the left, and there was a small half-collapsed room. Looking at the wreckage inside, it seemed that there was no decoration in the room. There were four framed pictures on the wall.Ivan pulled me to the wall on the right and pointed to the mark: "This place used to hang a photo of William, which was set up by Pope George to commemorate the first one-armed knight."

With the help of a torch, I found that the traces of this photo frame did not seem to be caused by standing for a long time, it seems that there are... traces of fire. "Ewen, this trace...?" I looked back at him.He understood what I wanted to say, and nodded: "You read that right, the photo of Knight William was burned a year before the castle collapsed."

"Isn't it an accident?" What I actually wanted to say was 'Is it an accident? '.

"I don't think it was an accident." Ivan's answer surprised me. He used 'think' instead of an affirmative tone.

"How to say?"

"I can't say that either," Ivan looked a little embarrassed, "I just guessed that."

Ai Wen paused for a while, then suddenly looked at the traces of the photo frame and said, "Maybe——what kind of story is behind this, maybe we don't know, after all, it has been many years."

"This photo was burned a year before the collapse of Fort Zoela. Such a coincidence is somewhat surprising." I nodded. Did Queen Mia collapse at that time?"

Aiwen looked at me, a little surprised: "Do you know Queen Somia?"

"En." I nodded, "Melon once told me something about Queen Somiya."

Aiwen smiled and said: "Oh. That's it." Then he said: "When Zoeira Castle collapsed, it was when Queen Somia launched a crusade against Murich, and the battle between the two sides led to the collapse of Zoeira Castle. A large area collapsed."

"They actually managed to make this castle look like this?" I was even more surprised by the vampire's ability, "Isn't this too powerful?"

Aiwen laughed a few times: "Human instincts are also very powerful, otherwise we wouldn't have stood at the top of the food chain for so long." I agree with Aiwen's words, although dinosaurs were at the top of the food chain during the Cretaceous period, but It didn't last long, and was wiped out by a meteorite.Human beings, perhaps destined to rule the earth, have not reproduced the disasters of the Cretaceous period, and have been at the top of the food chain for so many years, which can be regarded as having a strong ability.

"Then the coincidence that the knight figure was burned is a bit unbelievable." I said, "Could it be that the knight figure itself hides some secrets? And Queen Somia had already discovered it before she competed for the Pope's throne. , and then she quietly destroyed this portrait in order to prevent people from discovering the secret she discovered?"

Ai Wen touched his nose and agreed with me: "It's very possible. Well, the time is almost up, we have to go back, I think those guards should be back, we have to get out of here quickly."

We were lucky that the guards were returning just as we came out of Zoeira Castle, and we missed them.After this incident, I didn't see Sally until we left the next day. Aiwen told me that Sally should have been sent back to her father by the guards, and there was no danger.In this regard, I feel relieved a lot, thinking about that little girl is also very alert, I really like this little girl.

After returning to the underground base, I asked about Aiwen's father, and Aiwen told me about that incident, which made me feel incredible.

Aiwen said that on the eve of the day before Anwar's sex, his father Tom called Anwar into his bedroom, and the two stayed in the bedroom for more than two hours. After that, Anwar's face was heavy. He left Tom's bedroom without hesitation, and Tom didn't leave his bedroom all night. Tom didn't come out of his bedroom until the next day when Anwar led the troops to attack.And facing Anwar's siege, Tom didn't have much reaction until later, after Anwar pushed into Fort Esomi, Tom escaped from Fort Esomi under the escort of others, and went straight to Zoe. Rabao, and finally disappeared in Zoe Rabao.After that, Anwar took people to hunt down Aiwen, until finally Aiwen was sent to the outside world by Taylor, and has been sleeping until now.

This made me feel puzzled, Tom's weird behavior alone made me very curious, why did he stay alone with Anwar for more than two hours the night before Anwar's suicide?In the end, Tom ended up missing again, so where would he go?Was it killed by Anwar?Or have you escaped?These mysteries one by one made me feel that my brain capacity was not enough. I became very curious. I wanted to know what happened 200 years ago.
