Chapter 6 Wind and Emma
The Necromancer Bayer?
Neither Sophia nor Leot heard of the name, but a surprised expression appeared on Meggie's face, and the little fairy became thoughtful.
"As far as I know, a long time ago, an immortal named Bayer tried to become the god of all the dead spirits, but was killed by the dark god Shastine." Meiji asked in a low voice, "Is the Bayer you are talking about the immortal Bayer?"
All dead spirits are contrary to the law of life. Whether they are lichs or vampires, they only live between life and death. Although Luna and Shastine are always opposed and fighting with each other, the law of life they formulated together is the law that all other gods must abide by.
For tens of millions of years, although there have been many vampires or lichs in the world, who avoid the laws of life and live in dark corners that the gods can't notice, these undead ghosts are at most scattered into small groups, or shuttle alone in the sea of people, unable to unite.
They don't have common beliefs, and they are also different in seeking immortality. Therefore, although the violation of the law of life is an unforgivable blasphemy for both Luna and Shatin, because these undead creatures do not pose a threat to the gods themselves, the goddess and the dark god only order their respective believers to destroy the undead creatures they met.
But Bayer is different. He has enough power to provoke the gods and even almost becomes a new god. It is said that when his power reached its peak, most of the lichs and vampires in the world became his subordinates. You know, undead creatures with thinking ability, such as lichs and vampires, have the courage to face the anger of the gods in order to achieve eternal life. It is not easy for them to bow their heads to someone willingly. Especially lichs, those who can become lichs are basically magicians who have reached the extreme in magical attainments, and their own abilities should not be underestimated.
Bayer's power attracted the attention of the dark god Shastine. In order to kill Bayer, Shastine pretended to help Bayer become a god to join hands to deal with Luna, the goddess of light. After lured Bayer into the dark blood pool, she suddenly attacked and destroyed Bayer's body.
Black Annes, who raised Meggie, taught him a lot about gods, and the dead Bayer was also the person she specifically mentioned.
"Bayer didn't really die," the old warlock told Megid. "He is really immortal. Even Shastin can't completely destroy him, but just imprisoned him in a pool of blood and tortured him. Now, the dark god Shastine has left the world, and the goddess Luna is dead. But Bayer slowly regained his strength and gradually controlled the dark blood pool. He has formed his undead army in the Yag continent, and it won't be long before his hand will reach here. He wants to be the only god in the world and completely destroy the law of life formulated by Luna and Shastine, so that the law of life no longer exists.
"Destroy the law of life?" The little fairy muttered, "He doesn't want all the creatures in the world to become dead spirits, does he?"
"It also sounds interesting." Meiji shrugged her shoulders. Because Emma is a vampire, Meggie doesn't think it's terrible to be a necromancer. At most, she can't bask in the sun.
"It's funny." The little fairy shouted at Meiji, "Do you want to be a walking white bone? Or fly around like a lich with only a rotten head? Or become a headless knight, his head is gone, and he has to kill people everywhere in that deadly armor?
"The ghost wants to be those things," Meggie defended. "I'm just saying that it's actually quite interesting to be a vampire..."
"Is it okay to have some common sense?" The little fairy knocked on his head with a magic wand, "Vampires are actually different from other types of dead spirits. Whether they are lichs, skeletons or headless knights, they are not so much 'undead' as 'not alive', because they no longer need to maintain their physical functions. But vampires need to suck other people's blood to survive. If their bodies are cut in two, they will die..."
"So that's why it doesn't matter to be a vampire..."
"Listen to me," the little fairy said furiously. "Now, I ask you, if there are only lichs, vampires, skeleton zombies and these things left in the world... Whose blood do you let the vampires suck?"
Meggie was stunned.
"Vampires are indeed different from other undead creatures," the old warlock also said. "They have to transfer other people's lives to themselves by sucking blood to remain immortal, so in essence, they are still 'living'. So this time, Bayer actually intends to eliminate the vampires who have followed him. He only needs those 'immortal' things. For example, Lich, such as Headless Knight, and Carris, Ghost Doll..."
"Can he really do it?" The little fairy asked suspiciously, "It is impossible to kill all the lives in the world."
"If it was a hundred years before the darkness, it can be said that this idea is absolutely impossible, or even extremely ridiculous." The old warlock replied, "But now that the world has lost the real gods, which means that no one can destroy Bayer. Another thing I want you to know is that there is a person who has also become Bayer's subordinate and the most powerful lich around Bayer. He is Bode Anris... your former contractor!"
The little fairy stopped in the air in shock: "No, that's impossible. For Bode Anders, only magic is what he wants. He doesn't want to be anyone's subordinate at all."
"But that's the truth." The old warlock whispered, "Now Bayer is so strong that even if the god Shastine still exists, he will feel scared!"
It was difficult for Sophia and others to digest the amazing news they heard from the old warlock Kendal. This continent is now chaotic enough. If the deceased Bayer and his Necromancers do not really appear, it will indeed be a terrible and disaster.
"If this news is true," General Leot whispered, "we need to defeat Panqi as soon as possible and then go south to unify the kingdom of Fer. Only in this way can we form effective resistance before Bayer appears in this land and avoid the situation of fighting separately when the army invades. Sler's Dreiden gave us a year, and I guess he also hopes that we can do this during this time..."
"Do we really want to join the civil strife at this time?" Sophia said uneasily, "As long as Krapoel is still there, I believe that even if Bayer appears at this time, Krapoll will resist with the royal army..."
"No," General Leot just glanced at Princess Sofia. "There is the latest news that Krapol has not only been exempted from his paladin title, but also imprisoned for murder."
"Murder?" Sophia looked at Leot in shock, "Who did he murder?"
"Carrioth," Leot replied, "Eureth was a newly elected cardinal by the church before the throne of the Prince of the Sky. He was cut off his head by a long sword in his church, and only Clapole was present at that time. The trial of Clapole will soon begin. It can be imagined that whether there is real evidence that he killed Ellus, the Prince of the Sky and the Marquis of Ting will not let him go. In addition, there have been some incredible things in the church recently. Some priests and priests have inexplicably become monsters, and fewer and fewer of the clergy in the church can use magic. People have begun to rumors that the corruption of the church has angered the Lord God. Some people say that it was because the Lord God was dissatisfied with the church's support for killing his brother and becoming king, and punished his believers. And because Clapole has a very high prestige in the army, many people believe that he has been framed. Some knights have left, and a considerable number of them have gone to Dilu County. I have written to ask the count to receive and reorganized them.
"How can this happen?" Worried appeared on Sophia's face, "Does the second brother really want to kill Krapol regardless of the overall situation at this time?"
Next to Meggie saw that Sophia was obviously worried about the guy named Crapol, so she couldn't help humming and was a little jealous. That guy proposed to Sophia. Although Sophia refused him, she also admitted to Meggie that she was not unfavorable to Krapol.
"For the second prince, the higher the reputation of Clapole, the more jealous and suspicious he becomes." General Leot said, "What's more, Crapole's style is incompatible with those ambitious high-ranking nobles. Even if the Prince of the Sky does not deal with Crabor, the Marquis of Lianting, Einhuly and others will sleep uneasily because they are worried that Crapole will one day avenge his teacher Danmeishi. The more people are in their hearts, the more worried and afraid they are, and the more ruthless they are. Therefore, Crapol's situation is really not optimistic.
Sofia was silent.
"Don't worry about that paladin," Meiji interrupted. "Isn't the most important thing for us now to deal with Panqi? Now, we have lost his shadow again, and we don't know where to find him.
For him, it's better to pull the topic away from that guy as soon as possible, so as not to feel sad in his heart.
"If you want to find Panqi again, I'm afraid you have to use the star compass," Leot said. "Panqi instantly transferred his army along the underground river, and the groundwater resources of Hughton County should not be rich. As long as you know his method, it is not difficult to find him. What is really difficult is how to trap them and prevent them from transferring them again.
Sofia and Megy also began to have headaches. As long as he has the "Dragon's Right Pupil" and "Water Pattern Prohibition", Panqi can transport the army around at any time. This guerrilla tactic that can't be defeated and escape will make it difficult for others to destroy his main force.
"Please let me help you." The old warlock whispered, "What the cicada uses is a large-scale water element to transmit magic, so what they are waiting for must be a place with an underground river. As long as the direction of the underground river is found and the effective magic blocking boundary is covered between its upstream and downstream, even if there is a 'water pattern prohibition', the cold cicada will not be able to transfer so many people away.
"But if you do this," Megji asked puzzledly, "Aren't you just being against your own daughter?"
"She has the path she wants to take, and I'm not going to interfere with her." The old warlock said, "And I just want to do what I can. When she was a pirate on Pingxia Island, Panqi ordered her sister to attack the fishermen at the dock with a shadow dragon, and here, Panqi also saved the innocent civilians looted by the Orcs. I don't think such a person can become the savior on land and water. He is the kind of person who does not hesitate to cause greater disaster in order to satisfy his ambitions. He may be able to bring a fatal blow to this decadent country, but it is not enough to get the prestige and power he wants.
"So, you chose to help Sophia?" Megid asked, "Do you think Sophia is more capable of leading the future invasion of this country* Immortal Bayer?"
"I don't know," the old man replied faintly, "I'm just a warlock who doesn't know anything about military and politics. I'm just helping the people I want to help, that's all.
"Help people who want to help?" Meji looked at Princess Sophia thoughtfully, "Well, maybe this is Sophia's advantage. If those knights are loyal to Sofia only voluntarily, if the civilians in the kingdom naturally believe that Sophia is willing to help them, and if those soldiers are willing to obey Sofia's orders just out of respect, she will inevitably become the savior of the kingdom, won't they?
"Maybe," His Royal Highness Sophia just replied calmly, "Let's wait until I can really do that. As for now, as you just said, let's discuss Panchi and the cicada first."
"And Tinuvir..."
"Well, and Tinwell!"
......
When Meggie walked out of the conference room, it was already afternoon.
He wanted to find Emma who had come back, but he didn't know where Emma was hiding. In desperation, he had to go to Liselle's residence.
At this time, Borui, who rushed to the mouth of Mengluoxia last night, also came back with the Wind Knights. The night of hard work and in vain made their spirits a little tired. When they passed by Meiji, Borui nodded to him and went to the combat conference room to report.
Although there was no big loss, these knights were still fooled by Parnqi. No wonder Borui's expression looked a little aggrieved and depressed.
Before she reached Liselle's residence, a beautiful elf woman poked her head out of the corner and waved to him.
"The wind!" Meiji ran over and took the hand of the water elf.
"Follow me." The wind took him around a few times and entered an empty earthen house. The things in the earthen house are very simple, with only a wooden bed and a few tables and chairs.
"Where have you been?" Meiji asked, "We just heard about Bayer and his Legion of Necromancer..."
"I know." Yu Feng smiled and said, "I know what you are talking about, but I didn't participate. The so-called fate can't be changed by one or two details. It doesn't matter whether I listen to it or not.
"Oh, that's it." Meiji shrugged her shoulders. He has long been uninterested in the on-time prophecy and strangeness, coupled with the often contradictory fatalism. Anyway, those fates and prophetic roads are deliberately incomprehensible.
"Are you deliberately waiting for me there?" Meiji hugged her and slowly pushed her down on the wood**.
"Well, I have something important to talk to you about." Yu Feng whispered, "You also heard the old man's words. For Bayer, his goal is to become the god of the dead... and also the only god in the world. Meiji, I have already said that you will play a very important role in that unknown history, but by your side... Oh, ah, how can I talk about this?
"You talk about yours, and I do mine." Meiji smiled, "See if what you want to say is so important that I forget to do what I want to do, or what I'm doing can make you forget what you want to say... Hey hey..."
"No, no..." The Water Elf couldn't help whispering a few times under the touch and picking of Meggie. The faded skirt slipped to the ground, revealing her delicate watery skin. Meiji kissed gently in her ** zone, even the inside of her thighs.
Although Yufeng wanted to try to maintain her thoughts, he finally failed to beat the pleasure from her body, and soon Megji hugged her together and tried to cater to his movements.
By the time both of them calmed down, it was already dark.
"There is no way to talk about things with you." The water elf complained at the same time.
"Isn't it okay to talk about it now?" Meiji kissed her fiercely on the lips, then turned down and hugged the water elf from the side.
"Okay, but don't be angry."
"I won't be angry with you." Meiji sipted her earlobe.
"No matter what I say, you can't be angry." The wind repeated in a low voice, "Don't be angry now, and don't be angry in the future. Anyway, you are not allowed to be angry with me."
"Hmm..." Although Meji reluctantly responded, her heart thumped. He has guessed what the wind is trying to say to him.
"Meggie... Don't meet that female vampire again, okay?"
It's really this! Meiji sighed secretly in his heart.
For the wind, Emma has always been the thorn in her heart that can't be resolved. In any era, the elves who have always believed in the goddess of light regard the dead as evil. What's more, before Bayer was imprisoned in the secluded blood pool by the dark god Shastin, most of the vampires in the world used to be Bayer's subordinates. Yufeng neither understands Emma nor can use prophecy to see the possible role Emma may play in the future historical trend, so it is inevitable that he will feel uneasy and afraid of this vampire who has been in contact with Sophia and Meggie.
"Ema will not stand on Bayer's side," Meiji explained to her. "I believe in Emma, she will never betray me and Sophia. Besides, Xiaoxue said that Bayer's approach is to destroy even vampires together. No matter which vampire is, it is impossible to help him..."
"You underestimate Bayer too much," said Wei Feng. "Bayer is a necromancer. He has the ability to manipulate any negative energy, and vampires are also dead. The more powerful vampires, the more negative energy there will be in his body. Whether Emma herself likes it or not, the dark side of the negative energy will eventually devour her heart and let her automatically obey Bayer's orders. Otherwise, why do you think those vampires scattered all over the world would become Bayer's subordinates?
Meggie was there. If the situation is really the same as what the wind said, then it is really dangerous to keep Emma with Sophia. Although he believes that Emma will not harm Sophia no matter who harms her, if Bayer really has the ability to manipulate vampire thoughts, it will be dangerous for Emma to continue to stay here, whether for Sophia or Emma herself.
But can he really drive away Emma?
"Trust me, okay?" The wind turned around and hugged him tightly, and the soft skin clung to his chilling heart, making Meg's heart more struggling and uneasy.
"There are already a lot of women around you, just like her, right?" The wind still said, "Even if it is for the safety of the princess, you should..."
"Enough!" Meiji couldn't help stopping her loudly.
The wind fell silent and didn't dare to look at him.
Meggie smiled bitterly. Although what Yufeng said made him start to feel disgusted, he promised not to be angry from the beginning. Moreover, although he is unwilling to give up Emma, how can he bear to blame the wind? In any case, the worry about the wind is by no means unreasonable, let alone for herself.
Maybe he should pretend to agree to the wind and calm down first?
"The wind," he hesitated for a moment, and then kissed the forehead of the water elf. "I'm sorry, I won't let Emma leave. I believe in your judgment that Emma may really become a danger to us because of Bayer's manipulation, but I also believe that Emma will never be so easily controlled by him. She has suffered a lot. No matter what happens in the future, I will stand by her side and face it with her.
"But..."
"I don't ask you to believe in Emma," Mejito raised her chin and let the elf look directly into his eyes. "But can you believe me?"
"Well..." The water elf sighed helplessly. On the one hand, she was a little disappointed by such a result, and on the other hand, she felt that she had already guessed that it would become like this.
She opened her mouth and wanted to speak again. Just then, a tall shadow appeared in the corner of her eyes, and she was immediately shocked.
Meggie also noticed her strangeness and looked back in astonishment, but saw Emma.
