Blood Dragon

Chapter 360

Ashuruffat walked in the direction directed by Rodia, and soon came to the door of the room.The door was not locked, but ajar.Ashurfat pushed open the door, and what he saw was Hoshimi who was half-sitting on the bed with an unusually pale face.

He had already heard the news that Her Majesty the Queen and her servants fell ill in Gaohua City - at that time, he had just captured the White Castle and was dividing his troops to attack the chaotic remnants.However, the life of the little girl and her party was not a serious illness, but a minor illness caused by being overly frightened in the city of Newstria, tired from the journey, and irregular (or unhygienic) diet.At least Ashuruffat didn't take it seriously when he heard the news.

But at that time, he didn't realize that the twins were also in the Queen's retinue.In fact, he still doesn't understand why the little girl brought the two of them here.When did she make them officers?

"Ashrufat!" Xingjian let out a weak cry, and stretched out a hand towards him.

……

The little girl finally gritted her teeth and took the letter from Luo Diya.She quickly opened the envelope and began to read.

What must be explained is that this letter is sealed, so Luo Diya does not know what the content of the letter is.But with her experience, she can also guess that the old woman must have some purpose in writing to the little girl at this sensitive moment.Moreover, ninety-nine out of ten were to persuade the little girl to give up.

Prince Pol is really smart.He knew that he was completely inferior in strength, so he played the emotional card and wanted to win without a fight—but from another perspective, maybe he could really win everything in this way.Because Rodia also knew that the little queen was a very emotional person.Or you can apply the saying in the book: sensitive and fragile.What supports her to persevere in times of crisis is not the desire for power, interests or the throne, but the sense of responsibility because of family blood.This is rare.

However, the expression on the little girl's face (although she tried her best to conceal herself) slowly changed as she read.When she saw the end, the little girl's expression was already full of surprise.

"Your Majesty... this letter..." Rodia asked curiously.

"They are coming." The little girl put down the letter and said without thinking.

"Are they coming? Who is coming? Mother-in-law?"

"Mother-in-law probably won't come. But everyone else... will come." The little girl's expression was complicated. "Including my brother. Take a look." As she spoke, she handed the letter back to Rodia.

Rodia read the letter with great curiosity.It was indeed different from what she had expected, the mother-in-law didn't make any request in the whole letter.She was just saying bits and pieces—literally, the kind of stuff that a garrulous grandma would say to a granddaughter about to go away, honestly.

But at the end of the letter, the old lady said one thing clearly: Prince Boer will go to White Castle to meet the little girl.In the letter, the old lady asked the little girl to take good care of her brother.

What does it mean?Rodia put down the letter suspiciously.

"Rodia, what's going on?" the little girl asked.

Since Luo Diya has clearly stated that she will leave in the near future, the little girl is not very willing to discuss with her.But since she is by my side at the moment, it's by the way.

"This...I think...is..." Rodia wanted to speak, but found that her mind was very confused.This kind of weird thing made her unable to figure it out for a while.

In the current battle for the throne, Prince Boer's advantage lies in being recognized by Falcon City and the entire court, while the little girl's advantage lies in the army (in addition to her actual political achievements).According to the logic of normal people, Prince Boer must do two things if he wants to win.First, relying on the status of the king to buy, divide and disintegrate the army's support for the little girl (in fact, he did this).The second is to reorganize and train the new army as soon as possible, just in case.This is not to say that he will be able to obtain the military strength to fight against the little queen in a short period of time, but that he will at least be able to defend Falcon City and delay it for a few days.

But no matter what he does, he shouldn't come to Baibao to meet the little girl.Of course, the mother-in-law should not write such a letter.

This is not an attitude of compromise or negotiation, because after he quietly ran to Falcon City and became king, the two sides have completely opposed their positions.Humans are not elves, and a country does not need two kings, even if they are brothers and sisters.

"In any case, judging from the time on the letter." Rodia decided to throw away those parts that she couldn't figure out. "He may be coming soon."

"Recently... that's the time for early spring..." the little girl said softly.

When she left Falcon City, she thought it was a short trip, starting in Falcon City and ending in Newstria City.Once back and forth, the time is about two months.But so many things happened along the way, that now three or four months have passed, even winter has passed, and spring has come, and she is still far away from home.

Of course, from another perspective, she couldn't go back for the time being.

This winter is not cold.In fact, it counts as a rare mild winter at all.Throughout the winter, there are only a few snowfalls, and the snowfall is not heavy.Moreover, the coldest time of the year has passed, and it will definitely be warmer every day in the future.It's not obvious from the side of White Castle, but in Falcon City... the branches should have quietly sprouted buds at this time, right?

"Well, almost." Luo Diya didn't pay much attention to the meaning of the little girl's words.

"Did something happen? For example, Belle..."

"Impossible!" Luo Diya immediately rejected this conjecture. "Your Majesty, you have to remember that Belle... Your Excellency and the church have made it clear... that they will not participate in this matter. He himself has already led the troops to leave. Although it is halfway now, since he has made such a statement How could it be possible to defect to Prince Boer's hand? Anyway, he is a foreigner."

The little girl also hesitated for a moment.According to what she could understand, her brother shouldn't have done this unless he had some kind of trump card.However, from another perspective, she knew that such a meeting would be beneficial and harmless to her.

……

Hoshimi sobbed and finished talking about what happened that night.

Ashuruffat looked gloomy and said nothing.It wasn't until he finished listening to Xingjian's description that he let out a long sigh.Intellectually speaking, this is really an accident within an accident, essentially like walking peacefully and falling into a somersault, it is the kind of power beyond human beings.

"I'm sorry, but..." He hugged Xingjian's shoulder hard. "It's an unfortunate incident. Your sister..."

He wanted to say a few words of comfort, but found himself unable to speak.He didn't know if it was because he was not good at comforting a woman, or because he was hit by the accident much more than he thought.

"Have they cleared out...the corpse?" Ashuruffat finally found that he could only say such dry and worthless words.

"Sister...she's not dead." Xingjian said suddenly.

"Rodia told me that the next day they only saw the burnt ruins...the temple." Ashuruffat said.

"Yes, the temple is in ruins, but my sister is still alive. She...she must have been captured by the Chaos Legion!"

"how do you know?"

"I..." Xing Jian hesitated a little, but said it anyway. "My sister and I... have a natural connection." Seeing Ashuruffat's doubts, she quickly explained. "A long time ago... when my sister and I started to study black magic..."

Xingjian's eyes looked outside the door.But Ashuruffat closed the door after he came in, and there would be no eavesdroppers here. "At that time, we actually saw some records about black magic in books. Black magic... can change human physique, prolong human life, and even cure some incurable diseases."

This effect of black magic is a fact that even the church cannot deny, and it is also one of the important reasons for attracting many latecomers to join this dangerous and evil profession.But, at the same time, the church also described in detail the changes caused by those who practiced black magic, such as pale skin, decreased body temperature, distorted personality, and so on.

"So at that time we had an idea that maybe we could control the effects of black magic... on humans. In this way, black magic would no longer be a taboo, but would become a kind of... to make human beings more Excellent... Because of this idea, we came into contact with some black magic books, learned some skills, and then summed up some knowledge based on our own guesses and reasoning, and finally carried out the first black magic experiment rashly... We want to use the effects of black magic on humans..."

"The experiment failed?" Ashuruffat decided to ignore all the details and asked the result directly.

"I don't know whether it was a success or a failure." Xingjian replied. "Our original goal was achieved...we...or my sister, constructed an absolutely rational...'third party' in my head. But for reasons beyond our comprehension, I found that I could no longer touch magic Wind, I can only become an 'extension' of my sister. This is a term we invented ourselves, which means that although my sister can use the power of magic in a very simple way, I have lost the ability to cast spells. I guess I have There is a sharing effect... Anyway, my sister and I have established a... thinking connection. It is a constant one, and we can feel each other's existence..."

"So, I can be sure that my sister is still alive!" Hoshimi held Ashuruffat's hand tightly.

"Can you feel where she is?" Ashuruffat asked. "Exact location or general direction?"

"I don't have this ability. I only know that she is alive!" Hoshimi said in a helpless tone.
