This isn't a souls-like game at all.

But this was just an ordinary oak tree, and the hymns were of no use to it.

Unless the sacred hymn "Take Solid and Give" from the faith of the same dense forest deity is used to give it simulated divinity and transform it into a sacred oak first.

"You can't use the Deprivation and Requirement 40 Faith..."

Ye Yiyi rolled his eyes, put away the hymn book, took out a curved sheep horn hammer from behind him, and raised it high with both hands.

"boom!!"

A violent explosion accompanied by shock waves spread outward, breaking the branches of tall trees and shattering them, with limbs and flesh flying outward.

Si Luo was knocked to the ground by the violent tremors from the earth.

He looked up in panic, only to see Ye Yiyi putting away the sledgehammer in his hand, lowering his head and looking at the collapsed mud ground.

"There's a tunnel."

Ye Yiyi showed an expression of "as expected", then took out the lantern and hung it around his waist, then turned to look at Si Luo.

"Come on, we've found the way."

Walking in the slightly narrow tunnel, Si Luo looked at the rough and dry rock wall in the light, with a slightly strange expression.

"Here... there's actually a tunnel?"

"That's normal. It would be strange if there were no tunnels."

Ye Yiyi answered casually, his eyes moving away from the bright red bloodstains on the ground beneath his feet, and then looking around.

"But what surprised me was that the tunnels here were so rough."

“Rough?”

Si Luo looked at him strangely.

"Indeed, such a crude tunnel can only mean that it was dug later, not left behind ten thousand years ago."

“Oh, that’s it!!!”

Si Luo nodded, not quite understanding what was said, but halfway through his words, a long, tough tail wrapped around his waist and hung him up.

"There are no enemies ahead, speed up."

Ye Yiyi said this, ignoring Si Luo's wailing, and rushed forward with his wings of light.

As we moved forward along the deep tunnel, we did not find any enemies along the way, but there were more and more bloodstains under our feet.

From a drop of blood at the beginning to a pool of blood later.

Ye Yiyi couldn't tell whose blood it was, but he was sure that one of Eddie and Fulton was seriously injured.

After a few minutes, he finally reached the end of the passage, the inner wall of a well extending upward.

"This well is quite deep..."

Ye Yiyi looked up at the blood-stained inner wall of the well, watched the scent trail disappear all the way up at the wellhead, then looked down at the water.

A strong smell of blood came from both the bottom of the well and the top of the well, but fortunately, there was no human corpse in the well.

This means that both of them are still alive, or at least they didn't die on the way.

“But they shouldn’t go out…”

Ye Yiyi whispered to himself, then flapped his wings and rushed out of the well.

A raging flame accompanied by scorching air appeared before my eyes.

"Crash..."

In the distance, a house completely engulfed in flames collapsed.

"The law is supreme..."

Si Luo looked at the street in front of him that was completely covered in flames, his eyes widened in horror.

The well was located in an open space. Ye Yiyi lowered his head and looked around, his eyes sweeping over the remains of many puppets with holes wide open on their chests, and finally fell on a corpse whose lower body was completely cut off and whose upper body was struggling to climb forward.

"Eddie..."

Ye Yiyi fell from the air and looked down at the half-old man who had long lost his life.

"Lord Eddie..."

Si Luo looked down, but the light in his eyes gradually dimmed.

"Lord Eddie is dead..."

"I know, but Fulton should still be alive."

Ye Yiyi leaned over in front of the old man, pried open his clenched left hand, and picked up the blood-stained antique pocket watch.

"Om~~"

A faint white light lit up in the pocket watch, then turned into a streak of light that flew out and disappeared into the ground.

Soul Echo +1380

Ye Yiyi looked at the disappearing streak of light with complicated eyes, then glanced at the light screen that popped up a prompt, and then looked down at the pocket watch in his hand.

【Jade-bearing Golden Boy】

Chapter 430 [Replacement of Life] and the Stone Tower

【Jade-bearing Golden Boy】

Requirements: Intelligence 30, Faith 30

Attribute correction: Intelligence B, Faith B

Durability: 147/150

Item Description: A catalyst used to cast the magic of the kings.

An item given by Ars to the butler Eddie.

Etty, who married the prince's daughter and became a retainer of Ars,

It is said that he was once one of the captains of the Golden Cup Knights.

At the same time, he is also one of the few recognized by Yars.

A Campbell who takes care of the offspring.

The accompanying magic of the kings: [Vector Protection] [Self-suggestion] [Rebirth and Reincarnation]

After reading the item description, Ye Yiyi's expression looked a little strange.

"The prince's daughter? The captain of the Golden Cup Knights?"

What does it mean?

Does this mean that the woman who married Ars and gave birth to three children for him, including Fulton, was actually the daughter of a prince?

And Edie was actually the "dowry" that came along with the prince's daughter?

"This……"

Ye Yiyi couldn't help but take a breath in his heart.

What kind of person is that prince who can take a Knight Commander of the Golden Cup as his "dowry"?

"and many more!"

Ye Yiyi suddenly reacted and was then stunned.

Prince Campbell, who has an extremely noble status, could he be Dino Campbell?

"Silo."

He looked up at the guard crouching on the other side of Eddie, closing his eyes with his hands.

"What do you know about the Lady of Ars?"

"Madam?" Si Luo raised his head blankly, "You mean Madam Noah?"

"Why? Ars has another wife?"

"That's not the case. Ars only has one wife... After Madam Noya died in childbirth, he didn't remarry."

"Then who is this Noah?"

"She is Prince Dino's eldest daughter, Noah Campbell."

"Fuck, I actually guessed it right..."

Ye Yiyi couldn't help but bared her teeth.

So, Fulton and Adam should be of the same generation, one is the grandson and the other is the grandson-in-law!

"How many children does Prince Dino have?" Ye Yiyi asked.

"Two." Si Luo replied: "The eldest daughter Noah Campbell and the second son Noah Campbell."

"Noah?"

"Lord Noah died relatively early..."

Si Luo recalled and said, "I remember that Lord Noah passed the test of the Drowning Golden Cup and was named the Son of God by the Holy Nineteenth Church."

"The Holy Son of the Golden Cup?" Ye Yiyi glared.

"Yes. Later, after Ars was crowned the King of Engineers and married Lady Noah, Lady Noah also assisted Ars in developing the construction field.

"It's just that they were attacked by an ancient artifact in the tectonic field. Although Ars is fine, Lord Noah was seriously injured and unfortunately passed away..."

"This……"

Ye Yiren was a little stunned.

So, Noah is not only Adam's father, but also the Son of the Golden Cup, whose soul merged with the Vacuum Seat?!

"What then?"

"Later...Dino-sama and Ars had a falling out."

Si Luo rubbed his eyes and swallowed as he spoke. The scorching air around him made him feel a little uncomfortable.

"...Although Prince Dino and Ars don't have a good relationship, he is very fond of Lady Noya's offspring. I've even seen him take the eldest young master to the Morning Star Bathhouse.

"But unfortunately, the eldest and second young masters were frail and died within two years. Madam Noah also died during childbirth of the third young master. Furthermore, at the time, Lord Noah's son Adam was being tried by the church in the Judicial Court...

"After that, the prince rarely appeared in public..."

"This……"

After listening to Si Luo's story, Ye Yiyi always felt something strange in her heart.

Why does this series of family and child losses seem to be specifically targeting Dino?

Considering the anger in Ars' words about the life and death of others, Ye Yiyi didn't believe that no one who cared about the life and death of others had intervened.

You have to know that Dino's martial arts are unparalleled in the world, his mind is extremely strong, and he is not affected by hypnosis. Even the other people who were killed before did not dare to use force against him openly.

But even the most powerful people have weaknesses. Could Dino's weakness be his family?

After thinking for a moment, Ye Yiyi came to a conclusion in his mind.

"These are all tactics that Other Life and Death used specifically to attack Dino.

"So, that's why he sent Adam away from the capital and let him wander around the borders of the kingdom for years?

"That's not right! After all, Fulton is his grandson. Why did Dino send Adam away but ignore Fulton?"

Thinking of this, and recalling his first meeting with Fulton, Ye Yiyi suddenly reacted and hurriedly asked Si Luo.

"When I first met you today, was Fulton just returning to the capital from out of town?"

"Yes." Si Luo answered without hesitation: "Master Fulton and I just came back from Scandello, which is the hometown of Ars."

What the hell, Ars is from the ancient bordering Lichheim, where is his hometown?

and……

Ye Yiyi looked down at Eddie's upper body reaching forward as if to grab something, then stood up clutching the pocket watch in his hand and turned to look in the direction where the scent trail extended.

"Ordinary Truth Annihilators are no match for Edie, the former Captain of the Golden Cup Knights and the holder of the Magic Catalyst.
