Chapter 29: Page 29

[While traveling through the dream world, I could clearly sense a huge shadow there.]

[It is too powerful, and its shadow alone is enough to suffocate us. Because of its existence, Night Crow and I were trapped in reality, and at the same time, the remaining infected people also rioted because of its arrival.]

[Thousands of people rushed out of the factory... they were completely crazy. We felt that the huge shadow had engulfed the entire town, and those crazy people ran into the streets, singing and dancing to the shadow, and constantly spreading this behavior to others.]

[In just one night, the number of infected people increased from 1500 to more than , almost ten times the original number.]

[I realized that I couldn't go on like this... Just one Eternal Night brought such a terrifying increase in the power of the evil phenomena. I couldn't help but wonder what would happen if it happened a second time? What about a third time?]

[I don't know what's in that shadow, but it's clearly interfering with reality by spreading the corruption.]

[What it is doing is what we should stop. I immediately proposed that these infected people should be executed as soon as possible. This will not only allow them to leave in a more dignified manner, but also be for the benefit of more townspeople.]

[Night Crow vetoed my plan.]

[Stupid guy... He actually wants to apply for more manpower to supervise them!? Is it time to be soft-hearted now?]

[Argument...endless arguments...]

[I am tired of this process. The next eternal night is coming soon...]

[I knocked Night Crow unconscious, and I will take responsibility for this myself.]

"..."

When he saw this, Hitzfeld was so shocked that he was speechless.

40 years ago…

Shadow Lion's instructor...

The conflict between Ethan and his wife... and the difficulty of the golem that he and his wife mentioned together!

All of this points to one thing - Lilith Dawson is Mrs. Glee!

Yes, Mrs. Gleb, the "Gleb" here should be the surname of your husband's family.

So the lady's husband's name is Ivan-Gulliver?

The incident that occurred in Chongqing 40 years ago was a huge disaster.

……

[They were very hospitable. They entertained me very warmly.]

At the same time, in the aisle on the other side of the bookshelves, Xia Yibing sat on the cabinet and carefully studied the characters.

[Fields, hills... I played like crazy there, so happy that I almost forgot who I was.]

[They were so nice to me that they gave in to me in almost everything.]

[The only exception is that I am not allowed to approach the 'backyard', saying that a group of terrifying evil gods are sealed inside...]

[Of course this is an exaggeration. Not to mention how there could be such a thing as a 'god'. Even if there really is one... I went there secretly to see it, and it was just an ordinary little church.]

[They were pretending to be mysterious and placing some ritual items, and there was a wooden box on the platform that couldn't be opened. I certainly didn't believe this, so I almost stubbornly asked them to tell me the truth.]

[In response to my request, they told me: This is all true... The box contains the eyes of an eternal and great being. She has seven eyes in total, and each eye stares at "one day", repeating the number "seven" over and over again.]

['It is the Eye of Suppression,' they said. 'It is the God of Light that you open your eyes to see every day - the Sun in the sky.']

[They told me that the Hitzfeld family is the people of the Mother Tree, and is the shadow left in the gap of time by the last ruler of the ancient dynasty. Now that that great being has left, they have the important task of protecting the world and suppressing evil.]

[…I was extremely surprised.]

[I instinctively realized that knowing this might not be a good thing for me.]

[As expected, when I asked to return to the world I knew, they rejected me outright.]

['Knowing secrets has a price, Kochani.']

[They said.]

['Hitzfeld replaced the Mother Tree and the Sun King to guard against evil spirits. As a unique tribe... the legendary keeper of secrets, it is impossible for them to allow a mortal who knows the truth to return to reality.']

[I cried and even knelt down to beg them, but it was no use.]

[Just when I thought I was really going to be imprisoned in this dreamlike space until I died, something strange happened and they all disappeared.]

[The sky becomes gloomy and dark, and a cold wind blows around, howling... as if countless wronged souls are howling in it.]

[Overnight, this paradise turned into ruins.]

[I had no idea what was happening. I just ran... ran with the wind. I ran from there back to the hills where I had been in the past.]

[I was so frightened...I fell ill after returning. I wrote down what I saw and heard for the purpose of warning, hoping that one day someone can find out the truth.]

"Definitely..."

Xia Yibing's teeth were chattering.

She stared at the name mentioned in the article - Kochani.

Then I quickly flipped to the end of the book and found it in the list of citations:

【Kochani-Sala.

That is Sarah VI. 】

Chapter 34: Chrysanthemum Fly

The current ruler of the Sara Kingdom is Sara VII, who has been on the throne for more than thirty-nine years.

He officially ascended the throne at a very young age, all thanks to the death of his father, Sarath VI, also known as Kochani Sarath, who fell seriously ill after returning from a disappearance.

The truth of that incident is top secret even within Shadow Lion. When Xia Yibing came into contact with this period of history in her early years, she had the urge to get to the bottom of it, but was severely reprimanded by her mentor, who told her "not to have curiosity beyond your ability."

Of course she was not convinced, but there were too many things she was not convinced of. The subsequent study plan and the research on nightmares quickly squeezed her time, and she soon forgot that she had ever had such an idea.

Maybe the people in the tavern would be interested in the Wang family secrets. But she...

She cared more about how to kill nightmares efficiently.

"There are many legends about King Kochani's death from a serious illness. Some say he caught a cold in the wild and died, while others say he was bitten by a poisonous insect outside..."

She held her chin in thought.

"If this account was really written by him, then he did not have any physical illness at all, but was overly frightened during his escape from Hitzfell Manor. He most likely died of mental exhaustion."

One of the common senses in the circle of extraordinary people: entering any unrealistic realm requires burning one's spirit as a price.

Hitzfell Manor, according to King Kochani's description, this place seems like an unreal place similar to the dream world.

Perhaps upon entering there, King Kochani's spirit had already begun to burn.

As for the fact that the records said that the Hitzfell family was a clan of "secret keepers" left behind by the ancient dynasty, the mother tree, and the Sun King, Xia Yibing was skeptical.

The fact that King Kochani can enter that space shows that he has certain extraordinary talents.

But it won't be very good, in her opinion, it's just at the level of a rookie.

Such beginners, without anyone to guide them and to pass on their experience, cannot possibly identify those weird and terrifying lies on their own.

It wasn't that she was overly cautious, but she had seen too many cases of trickery in the few years she had been working.

Claiming to be an evil god.

Claiming to be descendants of an ancient dynasty.

He claims to be the inheritor of something and is responsible for protecting something. He says he will pass the inheritance to you if you let it out.

There are simply too many to count, and ordinary people can be deceived if they are not careful.

Maybe the people in the manor were lying. There was no mother tree, Sun King, or evil god at all. Everything was just an illusion created by some evil existence.

"walnut."

Xia Yibing raised her hand and called out.

"I am here, ma'am."

A dark shadow appeared beside her almost instantly, and the puppet Walnut bent slightly towards her.

"What are your orders?"

"I want to borrow this book." Xia Yibing held up the book "Secret History of the Family".

After finding the answer she wanted, she immediately realized that this was not something that should appear on the fifth floor.

Perhaps it was the influence of Ling Yan that made anyone who read that passage forget it.

It was by chance that I was able to find it.

Then she must borrow it now before her memory fades.

In this way, even if she forgot about it again because of Ling Yan's influence, as long as she saw the book she borrowed and read it again, she would remember everything again.

"A fifth-level secret scroll." Walnut glanced at the title. "Your level is exactly fifth... Are you sure you want to borrow it? This will consume all the remaining points in your name."

"determine."

"Then follow me to the front desk to complete the formalities..."

Xia Yibing ignored Hu Tao's nagging.

All she could think about now was Aisun Hitzfell, the one-eyed girl with whom she had traveled.

"The family of the Secret Keeper..."

She exhaled.

"I'm getting more and more curious about you."

……

On the other side, Hitzfeld vaguely heard voices talking on the other side of the bookshelf.

The sound of conversations, the sound of footsteps... She ignored all of them.

[I decided to take on everything myself.]

She stared at the manuscript, reading it word by word.

Fortunately, the manuscript used some common words, so she didn't have to guess.

[There weren’t enough gallows and guillotines in the town, and in order to prevent the executioners from being influenced by the ballads, I had them shoot them to death.]

[This is not an easy task... There are too many people and not enough space in the square. In addition, the place is too small and many people know each other. Some local soldiers and police refused to perform this task.]

[I don't understand why this is happening... Can't they see how dangerous the situation is?]

[I suspect there are members of the Eclipse Church among them, but I don't have enough time to find them.]

[Riot, rebellion... I had to kill several of the leaders myself.]

[…The ninth batch of executions has ended.]

[The executioners vomited all over the room, and some wimps even peed their pants.]

[I asked someone to get a hose to wash them down. Then Annofei came over and told me that they had blown up the ammunition depot, and they might not have enough bullets for the execution.]

[What a bunch of rubbish!!!]

The handwriting was so forceful that some of the strokes even tore the paper.

[This must be Ni Rikui's conspiracy! They want to awaken a real evil god and even destroy the entire world.

[I swear I won't let them succeed!!!]

[But... we really don't have enough bullets.]

[Only the extraordinary can be immune to the corruption of the ballad, but the total number of extraordinary troops I can mobilize now is less than 10.]

[I had to resort to a more brutal method to execute the infected, which was to... herd them to the edge of a cliff, push them down, and let them drown or fall to death.]

[…The rate of infection has been brought under control.]

[The people who are still alive curse me, crying that I am a murderer and a butcher…]

[They can scold me all they want, I know my faith will not waver.]

[Night Crow can't do anything to me. He has begun to agree to assist me. I firmly believe that we will achieve the final victory.]

"..."

Hitzfeld watched so hard that his breathing stopped.
