There came a voice from up the stairs.
The atmosphere was heavy and dull, and became suffocating.
"I am sorry, Your Majesty."
The kneeling man slowly raised his head, revealing a fair face with hanging dark green curly hair.
"I broke my oath first."
"Please follow the agreement."
"Please kill me."
Chapter 54: The Source of Distortion
What…?
Hitzfeld's face suddenly changed color, but just when she wanted to move closer and take a closer look at the face to confirm his identity, the picture in the hall was shattered again.
She found that she was back - not back to the past when they swore an oath together, but she had jumped out of the whirlpool of it all and was standing in the reality - yet not the reality - of the dream city.
“Ai Suen!” Xia Yibing saw her body swaying from a distance. The unstable state forced her to abandon Lang En and run over. She held her shoulders and observed carefully, “What’s going on? What did you see?”
"Let's talk about it when we get back." Hitzfeld shook his head and forced himself to go find Ron to thank him.
"?" Now it was Lang En's turn to be confused.
He did finish the story, and also said that at the end of the notebook the great-grandfather seemed to have some regrets. He told Xia Yibing his guess, saying that it was probably because the great-grandfather had learned that he was seriously ill and would die soon. He regretted dying in this way, and even more regretted that he failed to keep his oath to accompany King Charuni to the end and truly build the country with him.
Build well - he had a reason to say that. Because just after King Charuni ascended the throne, Sara fell into a more serious predicament than before. Various disasters and evil disasters were everywhere, and the actions of the anti-Sunflowers were getting crazier and crazier. This was the period when the king's power needed to vigorously rectify the situation.
Anyone who were to put himself in that position would certainly have the same regret if he suddenly learned that he was seriously ill and would soon die.
But didn’t Count Xiyang listen much?
When she was talking about this past event, she had always been far away, standing under the big white mu tree, staring at its roots from left to right. Occasionally, she would show a strange expression, sometimes helpless, sometimes with a strange smile...
Lang En always thought that she was not interested in what he said, or at least, even if she was interested, she was so far away and he couldn't speak too loudly, so the Count probably couldn't hear the specific content.
Then why is she acting so grateful to me now?
Was she trying to comfort me? Or was she putting on a show? Was she trying to win me over after seeing that I wanted to work for her?
No matter how smart Long En was, he probably couldn't figure out the truth behind it. After being fooled by Hitzfeld, he went to class with a lot of doubts in his mind.
Then it was time for the two of them to be alone. Hitzfeld sat down on the steps to recover the energy she had lost from tracing back to the past. She also told Xia Yibing everything she had seen during the break.
"It's great to have bright eyes..." Xia Yibing was really envious after hearing that.
"We can only read the text and listen to the story, but you can see the pictures directly... Why did the Sun King only have one eye? Give me the right eye, and I will believe in her from the bottom of my heart."
"Did you think I wasn't here?"
The voice of the Blood Crystal Crow suddenly rang out in the void, sounding extremely angry.
"What do you think this is! This is the Eye of the Evil God! It was just washed with her real blood!"
"But there are nine such eyes." Xia Yibing retorted, "Look... you are just a drop of blood of Vincent Yusilian Zachariah, but even you were able to deal with the nine evil gods at the same time. Among those nine things, there were three such eyes."
She used this comparison to illustrate one thing, which is that "in terms of combat effectiveness, the Evil Eye is probably not strong."
The Blood King was just a drop of King Zechariah's blood, but she was able to fight against them for so long. Although she failed in the end, it was not because she couldn't defeat them, but because she couldn't completely destroy these things.
That drop of blood is definitely far less than the original body, that is to say, if it is replaced by Ms. Yusilian's original body, then there is a high probability that the nine evil gods will be doomed.
Continuing the comparison, Lady Yusilian's original body, King Zachariah, is far inferior to the Sun King Amen-Haven in terms of combat power. The Sun King should have been able to easily defeat the Evil Eye, so how come he only defeated one at the beginning?
"Not just one! Six!" Blood Crystal Crow corrected her, "I only picked the 'most suitable one' to integrate into the true blood, and the others were unsealed according to the rules!"
"Like the one on the Red Plains?" Hitzfeld thought.
"You mentioned that and it reminded me of that. The one on the Red Earth Plain and the three on the Elsa Continent, although they are all evil eyes and part of that thing, the powers they display are very different..."
The Evil Eye of the Red Earth Plains almost killed them all. If it weren't for the resonance between the Green Dragon's Eye and her Divine Eye, the final outcome would be hard to predict.
"The combat capability of the evil eye has nothing to do with it, because it is not a 'combat unit' among them!"
Seeing that she reacted so quickly, Ms. Yusilian finally calmed down her tone.
"It should be classified as a 'reconnaissance unit' or an 'information transmission unit'. The combat effectiveness of such units is not very good."
"Then..." Xia Yibing wanted to say, "How could three of them escape to Elsa? Shouldn't she have killed them all with one sword?" But she soon thought of it.
The evil eye on the red earth plain, the illusory shadow imprinted on the surface of the eyeball.
"They are 'eyes'." The lady's voice continued, "Guess what the function of 'eyes' is?"
"It's 'seeing'." She volunteered the answer. "Each evil eye sees something different. When they see something too powerful and terrifying, the power of that thing and the appearance formed by its power will be left as a shadow on the surface of their eyeballs, hidden deep in their pupils."
"What is this 'Lord of All Things'... What you were facing was just the reflection of that thing seen by the evil eye."
"Each evil eye sees something different, and the reflections engraved in the eyes are naturally different. And the reflections are actually the basis of their combat power. Their strength and power are determined by the reflections."
"In other words," Hitzfeld helpfully added, "the Sun King not only had to face the siege of many evil gods, but also the reflections engraved in these evil eyes."
"Of course, some of the reflections are very weak, such as the three reflections of Elsa, which have no special power, but there are also some as strong as the Red Evil Eye. It is not so easy to deal with the latter."
"There are still some smart people here."
Ms. Yusilian said calmly.
"I don't care if you guys just start messing around here, but remember, don't make fun of Harwin."
"..." Xia Yibing's expression became strange.
I thought she said so much because she was upset with me, but it turns out the reason why she was angry was the same as the reason why I was defending Aisuen.
King Zechariah must have loved the Sun King with all his heart, so much so that that love was divided into billions of parts and diluted to the point where it was still strong in a drop of blood.
Thinking of this, Xia Yibing suddenly stopped being angry.
Not only was she not angry, she even felt that Ms. Yusilian was beginning to look more pleasing to her eyes.
"What are you doing?"
Hitzfeld became alert - she suddenly felt that Xia Yibing's eyes became somewhat dangerous.
Sometimes he stared at the wooden hairpin in her hair, and sometimes he stared at her face.
What is this...
"Aisun!"
Then, as expected, Xia Yibing pounced on her sideways, hugged her upper body, and rubbed her face against his.
"Xia...wait...Xia!"
Hitzfeld was surprised at first, then he struggled hard.
She is crazy!
This is a school!
After all, Pusilint is still a school, in a place like this... especially since I'm a professor here!
The adults will know, but what if the students see it?
Fortunately, Xia Yibing seemed to be just suffering from an addiction. After rubbing and sniffing her for a while, he let her go and she completely returned to normal.
"..." Hitzfeld was deeply skeptical.
She moved her butt to the side, making sure she was at least 20 centimeters away from the woman, and then began to return to the discussion about Bai Mu and the oath.
"That is to say——"
After a brief discussion, the woman lengthened her voice.
“The historical record is false.”
"Richard Barish didn't die of a serious disease. He was executed by Charuni because he made a serious mistake."
"I'm not sure." Hitzfeld shook his head slightly.
"I didn't see the rest of the scene. It seemed that some kind of existence... interfered... with it..."
At this point, her expression froze.
Interference...interference?
This wasn't the first time she'd encountered this, was it?
Looking at it this way, maybe she knows what mistake Richard Barish made.
--------
I didn’t expect that I would add more chapters at this time!
hum!
Beat up Yanyan!
Chapter 55: All Overthrown
"Let's go!" Hitzfeld stood up immediately, "To the auditorium tower!"
"Aisun!"
While she was lost in thought, Xia Yibing was also thinking about the case - she was stroking the girl's thighs wrapped in black stockings while thinking... She judged that kind of comfortable and pleasant feeling as "can greatly accelerate the activity of the spirit". In the past, there were indeed several times when she relied on this feeling and experience to solve cases extremely quickly.
As a result, the little angel slipped away directly... She hurriedly caught up and asked, "Where are you going?"
"I have to ask." Hitzfeld didn't know how to describe his thoughts to her for a moment: "How should I put it... that Bai Mu has a high possibility of being related to what we are investigating now."
"Is there such a thing?" Xia Yibing frowned, and her originally careless expression suddenly became serious.
Originally, he came to the corridor to ask for medicine because he had nothing to do. He decided to accompany Ai Suen to relax after meeting her. In other words, in Xia Yibing's view, this action in Dream City was "playing" or "taking a vacation".
Work hard when you are working, and have fun when you are playing. This is how she has always arranged her life. She is still hesitating whether to follow Ms. Yusilian's suggestion and find Aisuen to experience the fusion of the dream world.
In the end, the case was brought back to the original one... How could she have such talent that anything could be a clue?
Hitzfeld had no idea what the people around her were upset about. She had basically sorted out her thoughts, and her language became clearer and more fluent.
"This case—do you remember in what form it first appeared?"
"Of course, it was originally just a jewelry theft case." Xia Yibing would definitely not forget this basic element.
"You know that the crown is valuable, but no one else in the world knows this except you, me, and her who told us this... Otherwise, Alvin and the others would not have agreed to take this thing out and lend it to those people for the treasure exhibition."
"Of course." Xia Yibing frowned slightly. Based on what Hitzfeld had said so far, she couldn't tell how the two things were related.
"Then Alfred committed suicide, and a bloody battle broke out in the corner tower." Hitzfeld nodded, "Or maybe it can't be called a battle, it should be called a bloody massacre..."
"Yes, according to your inference, the massacre was caused by our presence." Xia Yibing narrowed her eyes. "That guy named Amura, if he planned all this and faked his death to get away with it, then he would need a group of witnesses who are important enough."
"I immediately went back to the scene of the Ross Golden Crown after the incident that day," Hitzfeld said. "I also told you the reason at that time, you should remember."
She said the reason...
Xia Yibing raised her eyes and recalled for a while, then hesitated and said, "Yes...you plan to use your divine eyes to see the past scenes?"
It was impossible a long time ago, but Hitzfeld can now control this eye more freely. Theoretically, as long as her mental state allows, she can use this eye to see some historical scenes involving the extraordinary.
Note here: there is a difference between its "startup conditions" and "browsing content".
To activate this function, Hitzfeld had also told himself that there must be traces of extraordinary power. Here it can be understood as a kind of primer, just like the example the girl gave her at that time, similar to making incense, the extraordinary trace is the incense primer and the first scent.
But after it is activated, there is no such restriction, and the images seen may not contain supernatural powers. For example, if she wants, she can completely "not do her job properly", ignore the guidance of supernatural traces, and go to see how ordinary people live.
It's a terrifying ability... Although there are still many restrictions, such as the conditions for activation, and its activation and continuation depend on Hitzfeld's own mental state, it is still too strong. It can only be said that it is worthy of being left behind by the Sun Goddess, whose function includes the element of "time".
Time... Xia Yibing didn't understand why the sun god was related to time at first, until she read an ancient book and saw that in ancient times when the time scale had not been invented, primitive people relied solely on the position of the sun to determine the time. Only then did she suddenly realize it.
"Yes, I was going to do that," Hitzfeld answered her last question, then shook his head, "It's just that I failed, just like in the turret, and didn't see the key information."
"You also said this." Xia Yibing immediately followed up, "You said it was because of the power of the crown, but you didn't know the specific principle."
"I understand now." Hitzfeld immediately brought out what he had learned in class today and explained to the woman what radio is, what information flow is, and what the interference effect on information flow is.
"Is that so?" Xia Yibing was stunned.
"It means that information flows are everywhere, and only people with certain powers can discover them... like you and those eyes."
"Yes."
