"what!"
Lady Maria uttered a cry of surprise, staring at the memory crystal in front of her with shining eyes, and stretched out her slender hands to take it with trembling hands.
Everyone could see how excited she was at that moment.
However, a figure nearby suddenly pounced over and tried to snatch the memory crystal.
Shiyan had already noticed the movement nearby and immediately stood in front of it.
Hem hit the shield and fell backwards, then hit the table and fell to the ground, coughing violently. He was unable to get up for a while. Years of drinking had worn down his body.
Mrs. Maria originally wanted to take the memory crystal, but when she saw Hem lying on the ground, her expression suddenly changed.
"No, this crystal... I... I don't want it anymore..."
Chapter 69: The Mission of Transformation and Everything
"I don't want the memory crystal anymore. Thank you, thank you for everything you have done. I'm sorry."
Lady Maria's face showed pain, but it was obvious that she had made up her mind.
She walked to the side and helped Hem up from the ground, and said softly: "I'm sorry, Hem, I have been troubled by the lost memory all these years and have always ignored your existence. It is my fault that you have become what you are now."
"I now understand that lost memories are meaningless even if they are recovered. Instead of reminiscing about the past, it is better to cherish the present. I promise that I will accompany you well in the future, and I hope you will stop drinking."
Hem stared at his wife in a daze, then suddenly hugged Mrs. Maria, buried his head in her arms, and cried like a child.
This scene touched us even though we had not yet recovered from the sudden change in mission.
I glanced at the memory crystal, then at the expressions of Madame Maria and Hem.
You can't force the memory crystal into her hands at this time to complete the final step of the task, right?
Apparently, Sister Qiuli and Sister Shuiyan thought the same thing, and their expressions were somewhat complicated.
"Dear guests, I know you must have made tremendous efforts to find the key, but my ability is limited and I cannot give you a reasonable reward."
Maria calmed Hem down, stood up and said apologetically.
"It's ok."
I looked at the two of them, not knowing how to answer, and shook my head, then continued Maria's words, "Please don't mind. It's a reward for us to help you regain happiness, isn't it?"
"thank you all."
Madam Maria bowed to us with gratitude in her eyes.
"Excuse me, guests, thank you."
And Hem, who had always been hostile to us, apologized for what happened before and expressed his sincere gratitude.
System: You have gained the friendship of the Hems, Charm +2, and the respect of Qiu Luo Castle +50.
This is also a good reward.
"These may be helpful to you."
As they were leaving, Shisha, who was walking at the end, looked at the Hems, took out three hundred gold coins from her backpack and placed them on the table next to her. Before the two could stop her, she immediately left the house.
By the time the couple caught up with us, we had already left the street.
But not necessarily.
The street corner of Fashu Street.
"I didn't expect Maria to give up this memory, but it's a good thing for her now that she has a new life."
Wrapped in a robe, Achilles stroked the memory crystal and shook his head slightly.
Achilles did not enter the house just now, but stayed at the end of the street. According to him, he did not want to disturb the life of his old friend who was an ordinary person.
And from his mouth, I connected to the fragments in the memory crystal.
We finally learned everything about Lady Maria's lost memory.
Lady Maria was originally the daughter of a small noble family in Qiuluo Castle. She accidentally met and became friends with the Black Dragon Lord Amos in the Dragon's Breath Forest. As they got along, they naturally developed feelings for each other.
The black dragon lord Amos was born into an ancient tribe in the Dragon's Breath Forest.
This ancient tribe has believed in black dragons for generations, and they also have the blood of black dragons in their bodies. Among them, the one with the strongest bloodline will be elected as the leader and can transform into a black dragon.
Amos was the leader of the tribe at that time.
While the black dragon bloodline is powerful, the black dragon's curse is also buried deep within the bloodline.
This curse will cause the owner to lose his mind, but the leaders throughout the ages have not only bloodlines, but also strong mentalities to resist it, and the same is true for Amos.
Everything was originally going in a good direction.
But things changed after Amos and Maria discovered ancient ruins in a lava basin.
Because of Amos's negligence, Maria was seriously injured and dying.
In order to save Maria, Amos consumed most of the power of the black dragon's bloodline, but was cursed and suffered backlash.
Just at this time, the news of Maria's disappearance spread among her family, and her tribesmen and many troops from Qiu Luo Castle came to the location of the lava basin to help search.
But he saw Amos who was suffering from the backlash of the curse.
The two immediately launched an attack, and when the leader of the ancient tribe was attacked, they were also sensed and rushed to support.
Originally, both sides could have explained themselves and stopped fighting, but Amos' curse was so powerful that it triggered the curse deep in the blood of other people in the tribe, causing the entire tribe to lose their minds and launch a fierce attack on humans.
When Amos managed to regain some sanity, he saw that everyone had been slaughtered by him and his clan.
Endless self-blame exhausted all his mental strength. He issued a final order to the tribe, asking them to take Amos and completely seal the curse deep underground next to the ancient ruins.
The news of the missing army attracted the attention of many people, including Hem, who was an adventurer in his youth and discovered the ancient ruins with his keen observation.
When entering, he noticed the traces left by Amos and found Maria who was in a coma. He brought her back to the Churo Castle and took good care of her.
Maria woke up later, but had forgotten all her previous memories due to a protection mechanism.
Achilles and Phaolanthus had previously met Amos and Maria by chance.
In order to thank Maria for helping him, Faolans fulfilled Maria's wish and made two crystals for her to record and store the memories of their time together.
The one in Maria's hand is the main body, while the one in Faolans' hand is the sub-body for safekeeping and backup.
When Hem brought Maria back, he naturally noticed the memory crystal in her hand. After curiously checking it, he was particularly shocked by what happened inside.
Maria happened to have lost her memory, and he decided not to tell her about this painful memory. He took her with him and changed her name to start a new life in Churo Castle. The subject's memory crystal was destroyed and buried in an unknown corner.
In order to thank Hem for his care, Maria later accepted Hem's proposal and officially entered into marriage.
It's just because of the loss of memory that there is a subtle gap in the relationship between the two.
This led to the scene we saw earlier, where Hem was often drunk and had difficulty supporting his family.
After parting with Phaolanthus, Achilles heard about the tragic events in the lava basin and understood what happened. He was worried that Amos, under the influence of the curse, would cause harm to the surrounding villages, towns or Castle Chrysoberyl.
He came immediately, intending to suppress Amos and find a way to help him remove the curse.
However, under the effect of the curse, Amos had almost reached the strength to compete with the legend at that time, and the blood power of Achilles became weaker with the passage of time, so he was defeated by him.
Unable to kill Achilles, and with his remaining sanity still in place, Amos imprisoned him in a cave.
Decades passed in a flash.
Chapter 70 Generous Rewards
A love story between a human and a black dragon actually involves such a complicated and multi-faceted experience.
After listening to this story, I thought about the true feelings expressed by Mrs. Maria and Hem just now.
Shisha couldn't help but be touched and murmured, "So they are so real."
“After all, this is also a real world for them.”
Qiu Li also felt a little emotional.
Through this period of time together, after reaching such a common feeling, it can be seen that the previous hostility between the two has disappeared without a trace, and there seems to be a different kind of tacit understanding.
Seeing this scene, I couldn't help but smile, not only because of the closer relationship between the two people, but also because of the extra thinking they had.
Even if the stories of these indigenous people are just pieces of data, reality is nothing but the collision of atoms. Hill, Tracy, Satasia and others also live very vividly in this world.
And Achilles also put the final end to this past event.
"Perhaps Faolans happened to know what happened from the sub-body, but the main body was damaged so the sub-body can only show fragmented memories. You can only take this crystal to understand what happened."
"And you came to Qiuluo Castle to look for me at the request of my people."
"It all came together as if it were fate."
Achilles smiled and said, "Although Maria has given up this memory, your efforts will not be in vain."
As soon as he finished speaking, a prompt indicating that the mission was completed suddenly popped up in front of Shuiyan and Qiu Li.
It’s just that obviously, the reward for the mission has not yet been settled. The inheritance missions of the two people have been linked together due to special circumstances. In my opinion, it has almost reached the level of an epic mission.
The rewards naturally can't be that bad.
Sure enough, Achilles raised his hand and summoned a black shadow to form a tower shield with divine power, and then gave it to Shisha.
"This is a shield I used before. Since you can pass the black dragon's curse, you should be able to unleash its full power."
As for Qiu Li, Achilles infused a force into the memory crystal, causing it to glow with a different color, and handed it over, "Ofrans originally intended this crystal to be given as a gift to his future students."
"Now that I've activated it, I hope you can treat it well."
Immortal Glory of War【Legend】
Mystery·Law Recorder【Legend】
Needless to say, the title of legendary fully demonstrates its value. Moreover, according to Achilles, these two pieces of equipment can be upgraded to epic equipment or even mythical level through subsequent tasks.
Finally, Achilles turned his gaze to me.
"You have equipment used by Lawrence on you, right? I can sense his residual aura."
"Ah."
I nodded, took out the leggings and showed them to Achilles.
"Lawrence is my old friend. Unfortunately, human lifespan is short after all. Three of his precious relics were lost after his death. Fifty years ago, I found two of them and gave them to his descendants. I didn't expect that this one would be in your possession. It's really a coincidence of fate."
"His name is Albert Kahn. He lives on Ronghua Street in Qiu Luobao. You can take this and go find him."
Achilles' eyes flashed with nostalgia, and he scratched his palm with his fingertips, and a drop of blood condensed and formed into my hand. He didn't say everything, but I also knew that the value of this drop of blood was probably the other two parts of Silver Wing Lawrence.
But what I didn’t expect was that my reward was not over yet.
Achilles cast his gaze towards Ahri on my shoulder.
"This little guy's bloodline is very strong."
"This rare gem is what I intend to leave for Mono. She is a beast tamer."
The sigh in his eyes disappeared in an instant, Achilles regained his composure, and handed a dazzling gem into Ahri's arms.
Although she didn't understand why the human in front of her gave her this thing, Ahri, who could feel the strange power from the gem, hugged it tightly in her arms with joy.
Two legendary equipment that can be upgraded to epic, two clues to epic equipment, and a perfect exotic gem.
This is the luxurious reward for the epic quest.
If you really count it, the second seal of the Glorious Chapter, which has been half lifted, can actually be considered a reward.
It can be said to be full of surprises.
Finally, Achilles prepared to return to his hometown with the hookah to complete the inheritance of the latter [War Lord].
Although the black dragon curse had faded, the effects of the years of curse still remained in his body. In addition, Achilles had already gone through a long time, and only had one or two years left.
During this period, he planned to visit his old friends who were still alive, or their descendants, while teaching hookah.
Qiu Li also prepared to return to his mentor Phaolanth to tell him what happened and the news that Achilles was rescued, and to complete the inheritance of the mystic scholar.
However, before leaving, Qiu Li hugged someone mischievously. Faced with this provocation, Shuiyan did not show any weakness and launched the same counterattack.
Until someone couldn't help but whimper like a drowning person, which made Achilles next to him laugh.
This is how we say goodbye to each other and leave.
