Monarch of Evernight: Eight Diaries

bsp;Most of Blood Siren's equipment is geared toward stealth, concealment and ambush. He carries two short guns, one is a powerful pistol that ultimately failed to fire, and the other can shoot silently, which is an extremely rare special effect.

Both are level four force guns, with special badges engraved on the handles. That is the symbol of the vampire craftsman, indicating who made this work. Only senior craftsmen are qualified to leave marks, and a senior craftsman will only leave marks on works that he is quite satisfied with. A special short gun like this with a craftsman's mark is no less powerful and precious than an ordinary level five force gun.

In addition, Qianye also found a long sword and a dagger on Sir Blood. The long sword is level three, and a melee weapon of this level is equivalent to a level four force gun, so that's it. The dagger is actually level four! This is extraordinary. Generally, level four melee weapons are only in the hands of warrior-level warriors. In the vampire clan, generally only the viscount can use it.

The inner armor under Sir Blood’s identity-disguising clothes was also a good product. It was sewn from the skin of some giant beast. It actually contained three force arrays. Qianye activated it and found that Two are for enhanced defense, and the other actually distorts vision for a certain duration to achieve a semi-invisible effect.

Qianye couldn't help but become more curious about the identity of this blood knight, and began to look through his backpack and the small tool bag in his pocket.

The backpack contains mostly various supplies needed in the wild, including a notebook and a dozen blood crystals. This kind of thing is an important supply for high-level vampires. It contains blood rich in the Force. Ordinary vampires cannot get blood crystals at all and can only rely on blood-sucking to replenish their physical strength and make up for the power of blood.

In the tool bag, Qianye found a crystal piece wrapped in soft animal skin. It was about the size of a palm, one finger thick, and had a light azure color, like a fragment of a certain utensil. There are some lines with unclear meanings engraved on it, as well as some words that look like spells.

Qianye didn't recognize any of the characters on the crystal fragment, but the shape looked like an ancient character called runes.

The runes are ancient writings passed down by the dark race, and their history is much older than the ancient writings of the human race. It is said that runes are a kind of text with mysterious power, and they can themselves become structural parts of many kinds of Force arrays. True runes, each word is seen as a complete array of the Force. According to the different forces represented by the runes, they can be divided into dark runes, dawn runes, neutral runes, etc.

Of course Qianye can't tell what type of runes the crystal fragments belong to, but as long as runes appear on the items in the hands of the dark race, they are likely to be ancient relics handed down from ancient times, and everything is priceless. . He had only seen one item with runes in the showroom of the Red Scorpion Legion headquarters. It was a cane carved from a single piece of black crystal, with a circle of runes engraved on the top.

Back then, this staff was held in the hands of a great demon wizard, who killed countless Imperial soldiers. Later, several commanders of the Red Scorpion Legion dispatched at the same time to ambush the great demon wizard. After paying a heavy price of almost total annihilation, they finally killed the high-ranking member of the Eternal Night Parliament and brought this A cane was sent to the showroom as a trophy.

Now, a crystal fragment with runes appears on a blood knight?

Qianye picked up the note and carefully inspected the surrounding environment again before opening it. The Black Mud Swamp was still calm with an unknown danger. In the area where he stayed, because the Horned Serpent and the Blood Siren died not long ago, the remaining auras still intimidated the native creatures of the swamp, and the surroundings were as quiet as a barren life.

Qianye began to read Sir Blood's notes. On the flexible and waterproof paper, there were squiggles left by a special dark green pigment. The brushstrokes contained the usual elegance and complexity of the vampire clan.

Fortunately, this is a diary. The text is very simple and straightforward. It mainly uses the modern common language of the dark race. There are no difficult words and sentences except some proper nouns of the blood race. Qianye can understand most of the vocabulary.

The notes record the adventures of this high-level vampire in recent years. He has traveled extensively and visited several continents. On one of the pages, Qianye read some interesting content.

"I, Darul Kulas, a dignified baron of the great and long-established Kulas family, actually received a call-up order?! Oh my God, I am still the one for lower bloodlines in the Evernight Continent. A place where inferior species live! But why am I so unlucky to come back at this time? If I had known this, I should have postponed my trip for another three months. The scenery of the Green Gold Continent is still very fascinating." /

Qianye looked at the date and found that this diary was written nine months ago. In other words, the dark race was already planning a large-scale war more than half a year ago? Or on the Evernight Continent?

However, in the past period of time, Qianye has not heard of a war of the same scale on the Evernight Continent, at least no war that could match the blood race recruitment order in the upper continent. Then there is only one possibility left. The war that is about to start is the war in which Baron Kulas is recruited. It will also be a total war level battle!

The recruitment order was issued at least nine months ago. If the time for plotting is included, the big figures of the dark race may have been planning a few years ago.

What is it that attracts the dark race and makes them pay such a high price to launch such a war on the barren Evernight Continent? The reasons for war are nothing more than resources, territory, population, and so on.

For territory?

This makes no sense. The Great Qin Empire currently has no territorial ambitions for Yongye Continent, otherwise it would not have given up on Yongye after capturing Qin Continent. Although the empire later formed an expeditionary force for unknown purposes and still retained a sphere of influence on the Evernight Continent, it actually had a rather laissez-faire attitude towards the expeditionary force in terms of armaments and strategy.

For population?

Most of the humans who survive and thrive on the Evernight Continent are the poorest people at the bottom. They are always struggling on the line of life and death, and most people will never awaken to the Force throughout their lives. For most pure-blooded people with mysophobia, if they were not extremely hungry, they would not be interested in sucking the blood of these poor people. The sludge and odor on those people would be enough to destroy their appetite.

Such poor people are not even as good as the humans raised by the dark race themselves. What’s the use of grabbing more?

Just because Qianye can’t think of the reason doesn’t mean that the dark race is stupid. In fact, many old guys in the Eternal Night Council have lived for thousands of years and have had too many experiences in their long lives. Experience and great strength make them almost incapable of making mistakes, and sometimes they do stupid things just because they are bored.

Qianye retracted his thoughts and continued to read through his notes. Although he realized from the trophies that this vampire's identity was not simple, he never thought that he would be a baron from the upper continent who was qualified to be recruited.

Soon Qianye saw some other interesting records.

"I have to say, I am a little interested in the recruitment order. According to Mueller, this war is actually related to the treasure left by the Black King? This guy has never been reliable, but I have to admit, This time I believe it. As for why, I can only say that it is the intuition given by the ancestor. Muller has been wrong so many times, so he should be right once, right?

Black King? Qianye didn't know which big figure the Black King was in the history of the dark race, but it was very likely that the person with such a name was a dark king. And even the weakest Dark Lord's legacy will interest the Imperial Marshal.

From here on, Qianye slowed down his browsing speed and saw a lot of shocking content.

"Black King? Which Black King is it? Those scary and hateful old guys in the Parliament always want to cover up all history, but this cannot be difficult for me. I, Darul. Kuras, although only a baron, I am also a great scholar and adventurer.

In the past thousand years of history, there has been only one king who met the requirements, and that was one of the second-generation ancestors of the Blood Clan, the terrifying black-winged king Anduya!

He suddenly disappeared shortly after the Dawn War and his whereabouts are still unknown. There is still no answer as to why he disappeared. I personally think that a more reliable theory is that he went to explore the world beyond the twenty-seven continents. After all, the ancestor of the blood race has a natural advantage in this aspect... It seems to be off topic? ”

A second-generation ancestor of the vampire clan who suddenly disappeared? Qianye silently wrote down the name Anduya, preparing to collect information about this black-winged king if he had the opportunity in the future. But for now, of course, the first priority is to survive the war.

The following contents of the diary are all Darul’s activities after arriving in the Evernight Continent. The requirements for the recruitment order of the dark race are very loose. It can be seen from this that there is no clear target for resource plunder in this war. Barons like Darul, who have a middle-to-high status in the clan, are good at lurking and assassination, and basically have complete freedom of action. . As long as the war officially starts, you can enter the designated war zone to participate in the war.

This part of the record is quite lengthy. Darul is a completely restless guy. He spent nearly half a year exploring many places on the Evernight Continent, but he did not engage in a few serious battles. According to the records, most of the time he would kill someone after his identity was revealed.

Only one time, he escaped without a drop of blood during an exploration that lasted for more than ten days. After finally escaping, he attacked a human village in a state of extreme hunger and thirst.

As for the result of the attack, he just left an understatement: "Even the blood of young girls and young children tastes so rough. This continent is indeed only suitable for low-class people of low-class blood. To survive. In addition, food should be washed before eating, especially during the night. ”

The corners of Qianye's eyes twitched slightly, and then he continued to look down. This is the true relationship between dark races and humans. Darul, who is keen on adventure and exploration, is already considered gentle, although his gentleness comes from his contempt for the arrogance of the entire human race.

These adventure contents of the Evernight Continent mention some mysterious places that even Darul cannot enter for the time being, such as the Dusk Forest, the Ice Cracks, the Luminous Mountains, etc. The unheard term also piqued Qianye's interest. He had known that the continent where he had lived for the longest time was extremely vast, but he never knew how vast it was. Maybe he would be able to visit everywhere when he became stronger in the future.

Suddenly, the following record attracted Qianye’s attention.

"Today I found a page of a very ancient document, and the content inside is really shocking! Who would have known that Anduya had secretly lived in the Evernight Continent for decades? Such a great black-winged king, to No one knows about the news about Yongye! Perhaps, this is the truth that the old guys in the council are trying to hide! Some of them are contemporaries of Anduya, and they have no idea about Anduya at all! I’ve been to Yongye and stayed there for so long, I wouldn’t believe it even to death!”

"Ha! Today is a good day! I finally found evidence that Anduya has been active! Maybe I can find something there."

"A whole week of hard work has paid off! I can't believe what I found! A fragment with runes printed on it! Although at least two-thirds are missing, the unique style can still be judged. This is the key , the key to unlocking the treasure of Black Wing King Anduya! Maybe I should keep it. It is appropriate that the treasure of the ancestor of the blood clan be inherited by the blood clan."

"Another two months have passed, and I finally have a new harvest. Opposite this disgusting swamp, in an indescribably small human town, I finally found my target. A quick The dead old guy, his ancestor once served Anduya, of course, during the time when the Black Wing King stayed in Yongye, I got all the information about his ancestor. , let his descendants take the key fragments to the Forgotten Mountains of the Fenghuo Continent, where there will be a gift from Anduya as a reward for his thirty years of dedicated service."

"The problem now is this **** recruitment order. I have to wait until after this war to go to the Fenghuo Continent!"

On the last page, only one sentence is left.

"A young human actually saw through my disguise? It's interesting. Maybe I should turn him into a descendant."

This ends the diary.

ps: Thanks to the new leader Dark Syndra. (As for the other leader’s trumpet that Anan was so miserably hacked into, I really can’t bear to name him anymore.)
