Christine looked at the dead knight in disbelief, her pupils constricted.
The so-called gods are the six tribes that lived on the continent of Arlen in ancient times.
Over the long years, these six tribes of gods gradually withdrew from the stage of history for various reasons.
Among them, apart from natural disasters and man-made disasters, the biggest reason is the pain of the strong, in short, it is reproductive ability.
The six ancient tribes had an extremely poor ability to reproduce, so poor that they were unable to give birth to the next generation at the end of their lifespans for thousands of years. Coupled with long-term wars and civil strife, the number of tribe members decreased sharply and could not be replenished, and they were finally on the verge of extinction.
Today, three of the six ancient tribes have intermarried with humans and established nations in order to continue their bloodlines.
The price of this is the dilution of the bloodline from generation to generation, but the benefit is that the bloodline of the gods is continued.
The other three tribes still maintain their ancestral teachings and do not intermarry with humans.
The three tribes are the vampires, the nine-tailed foxes, and the dragons.
Among them, the dragon clan was declining in population, almost on the brink of extinction. Although the nine-tailed fox still existed, it was not as strong as before and huddled up in the deep mountains of Kyushu.
As for the vampires, because of their special means of reproduction, the next generation can completely inherit the bloodline of the previous generation and there is no need to worry about inheritance issues at all.
But only the blood queens of each generation know that their 100% inheritance has limitations and harsh conditions...
“Could it be, him?” Christine walked towards the knight unconsciously. The aura became stronger and stronger, making her calm eyes filled with heat.
There was no mistake. He was the human race that she was looking for, the one with the same origin as their Lasambo tribe...
"Sizzle!" However, just as her hand reached out to the knight, a white-crimson flash of lightning suddenly jumped to her fingertips.
“Ah…?” Christine widened her eyes upon seeing the white peach-colored lightning bolt that took the shape of a fox demon.
This breath made her feel familiar and disgusted.
"Damn it... Damn you vixen, it's you again!" Christine rarely cursed. "Why do you always ruin my good deeds?!"
Seeing Fate surrounded by crimson lightning, Christine looked anxiously but was helpless.
Ordinary people certainly cannot stop the gods. Only forbidden spells cast by gods of the same level can stop the gods.
Why does he have the protective forbidden spell cast by the demon fox?
Why was he targeted by the demon fox?
Christine's face was uncertain. She clapped her hands and called her subordinates.
"Your Majesty, what do you want?"
"You guys, deal with this overconfident human and throw him out of the Crimson Land."
"Oh, right, deliberately create a few witnesses, understand?"
"As ordered."
Christine stared at the knight who was being carried on a pedestal by his subordinates, and an idea began to brew in her mind.
However, she had to confirm the authenticity of this idea.
Chapter 5: 4~So you are not human
About a week later, a group of hunters living in the border areas of the Kano Empire found his body on their way back to the village one day. They confirmed his identity through the sword in his hand and the armor on his body.
A month later, the news of the death of the [Commander of the Dawn Knights] spread throughout the entire continent and every country.
At first, people had different opinions about the death of this great man. Some believed that although he had done unforgivable mistakes, he was still the Knight Commander who brought tranquility and peace to the continent and should enjoy the treatment he deserved after his death. Others believed that his heart had changed and he was so evil that he had lost his title of knight.
The heated discussions finally ended with Wang Guo’s announcement of exoneration.
Afterwards, after a thorough investigation and repeated verification by the Holy Orchid Kingdom, it was finally determined that there were major problems with the princess's fiancé who was killed by Fate, and it was even very likely that he was the ultimate mastermind behind the cult's chaos.
After tracing the letter showing the Grand Duke's affair with the cultists, the truth became clear.
The knight was framed.
This is so embarrassing......
The plan detailed in the letter horrified every royal family member who witnessed it. If the plan in the letter were to go according to plan, the kingdom would be in real danger.
Fortunately, the Knights intervened in time to stop it all.
He knew that killing a great noble without any evidence was a capital crime and would bring him eternal infamy, but he still drew his sword without hesitation.
Because he knew that by the time the kingdom found conclusive evidence, the situation would be irreversible and the price paid would be thousands of innocent lives.
Even if he had to bear the slander and criticism from thousands of people afterwards, he would move forward courageously.
The knight used the remaining afterglow to protect all living beings.
Throughout his life, he never failed to live up to the title of knight.
Upon learning the truth, the Saint Lan royal family was filled with shame and issued a redress edict overnight, actively admitting the serious mistakes of the royal family, announcing the withdrawal of the sanctions previously imposed on Fit, returning his title, and conferring the title of Duke of Protector of the Country on him for killing the leader of the cult, ranking him as a first-class grand duke.
however.
It's too late.
The knight died forever before they could vindicate him. He was only 35 years old and had no regrets in his life.
After the kingdom issued the edict of rehabilitation, an uproar broke out on the continent. In an instant, the attitudes of the continental countries towards the Kingdom of Shenglan became subtle.
The biggest reaction to the kingdom's misjudgment and mistakes came not from any one country but from all the grassroots people.
They denounced the King of Saint Lan as a murderer who killed the Knight Commander, and even the people of Saint Lan were despised and hated by their fellow countrymen.
Peace returned to the continent, but the knight left forever.
When he was around, evil spirits retreated like turtles; after he left, he left the world a cleaner place.
After the hunters discovered the knight's body, almost immediately, the Empress of the Empire dispatched the Imperial Guards and the Royal Guard to the border to welcome the Knight Commander of the Empire "home".
Not only the Empire, but also the Kingdom, the Forest of Elves, and Kyushu sent their own envoys and honor guards to take the knights "home", but the Empire took the initiative and drove away the honor guards of other forces and countries.
Soon, the knight's funeral was held grandly in the imperial capital. Queen Beatrice personally presented him with the national flower of the empire and held a final farewell ceremony for the knight.
On this day, there was a heavy rain, but the people who came to see the knight off came regardless of the weather, and the huge imperial capital was packed with people.
The sound of the funeral music seemed as if even the gods were crying for this upright knight.
The Empress of the Empire, the Twin Princesses of the Elves, the Empress of Kyushu, the Brave Man of Arlen, the Princess of Saint Lan, and the high-ranking fox priestess Si Qing, all were present and gathered in the imperial capital in silence. The heavy rain concealed their backs and distanced them very far from the knights.
The knight was buried in the Imperial Palace. The ceremony ended, but people still missed the knight.
Many private chambers of commerce jointly built temples for the knights in the local area, using pure marble as the material and enshrining stone statues of the knights in them.
The knight in the temple stood solemnly, leaning on his sword, just as majestic and upright as people imagined.
Not only did the people of the Empire do this, the people of the Kingdom, the Elves, and Kyushu also built the Dawn Temple in their local area, using their own culture and methods to commemorate this upright knight.
In fact, the size and number of the Dawn Temple are almost surpassing those of local churches.
In this regard, all the countries on the continent expressed their tacit approval and did not prevent their people from commemorating the knight.
At this point, the knight named Fit Saint Lun ended his life.
one-one-one-one-one-one
...........
'Wake up, Mr. Knight, wake up........'
..........Who is calling me?
...........In peaceful times, there is no need for knights.
Ah, so sleepy......
The shouting gradually subsided, and the childish voice of grief and crying rose and fell.
"Mother, mother..." The little fox girl with snow-white hair knelt in the cold cage, her lotus-root-white limbs entangled with chains woven with spells.
The little fox girl's eyes were filled with tears, and she stretched out her little hands towards the heartless fox-eared girl who turned her back and left without looking back. She cried and shouted, begging her to turn back and look at her just once.
However, the white-haired and fox-eared girl who looked 80% like the little fox girl was as cruel as her incomparable brightness and beauty. She locked her in this dark dungeon without considering her blood relationship, looked at her coldly and left without looking back.
The sound of the bell on her ankle was getting farther and farther away from her, and she could no longer hear it.
"Mother, what did I do wrong? Why do you treat me like this?........." The little fox mother stared blankly as the fox-eared girl left. Soon, her world returned to pitch black.
Despair was reflected on the young face of the fox-eared loli, which was beginning to show a bit of charm and attractiveness. She looked pitiful, desperate and helpless.
Mother, please don't leave me...
"?!" Fate suddenly woke up from the nightmare, and a depressed feeling surged into his heart.
Her world was still pitch black, but she could see faint spots of light outside the cracks.
Without thinking, she smashed the stone slab on top of her with one punch.
"Huh, whoosh..." The light poured into the sarcophagus like water. Fate breathed in the air in big gulps, his whole body soaked with sweat.
Hearing her own breathing, she subconsciously felt that something was wrong, and then looked at her hands.
Soft, small, white...
In addition to this, there are several more tactile 'limbs' behind her.
This was obviously not her human hand.
And the tail?
Could it be that her current state is? ?
"My guess turned out to be correct."
"Hmm?" Hearing this familiar teasing voice, Fei Tao subconsciously looked up into the sky. Above her, a silver-haired girl in a Gothic dress riding a giant scythe was looking at her meaningfully.
"You are not a pure human being."
"...Christine??"
"Ah, you were calling me Your Majesty and showing me great respect before, but now you are just calling me by my name?" Christine jumped off the scythe and looked at Fei Tao with a smile on her face.
"You really tricked me into coming here."
"So, you are of the Nine-Tailed Demon Fox Clan."
"............." The fox-eared loli with snow-white hair stared at Christine silently, and the three big white tails like dusters behind her swayed with the fluctuations of her emotions.
"I, didn't die?"
"Of course you can't die. You have the blood of the nine-tailed fox in your body. Even if you are chopped into fox mud, you won't die."
"What a shocking secret! You actually have fox blood in you. Tsk tsk, who is that old, stinky vixen Yurou Jiushuang to you?"
Tsk, she looks exactly like that stinky vixen, except for the eye color, they are simply cast in the same mold.
"........Tell me what you want to know?" Fei Tao's small and delicate nose moved and she puckered her cherry-like mouth.
"Well, just treat it as satisfying my curiosity. But don't forget that you still owe me a favor~?"
"It's not a special relationship." When mentioning this topic, Feitao's childish and lovely voice had a hint of dullness.
"Oh, that's like a distant relative..."
"She's my mother's."
“……….” Christine’s voice stopped abruptly.
"What did you say??"
Chapter 6: 5~ Changed back, but not completely
"What did you say? What is that? Who did you say Yu Rou Jiu Shuang is to you?" Christine had never been so shocked in her life. Her petal-like mouth opened so wide that an egg could fit in it.
Of course she heard it very carefully, but the amount of information contained in these few simple words was so explosive that she seriously doubted its authenticity.
Are you so surprised?
Fei Tao pursed her cherry-like lips and focused her attention on her hands and the three tails that were swaying unconsciously behind her.
I haven't seen this body for a long time.
