Chapter 805 The Chaser of the Wild Hunt (please vote for me)
Looking at the Earl of Leipzig who suddenly became quiet, Adolf paused his staff slightly and closed the window again.
"...Using earth-attribute magic to use Winter Division's spells is still a bit too forced, isn't it?"
Adolf frowned slightly.
It took such a long time to freeze... If it were petrification, the Count of Leipzig would turn into stone in an instant.
The old man ordered: "Move it away and move it upstairs."
Following his command, many undead spirits appeared behind him. They responded with a smile, playing carefree in a place where the old man could not see.
But at this moment, the old man in black robe suddenly looked towards a corner.
There, Aleister, who was riding a ghost Pegasus and had visibly white skin, gradually emerged.
She is using Bayard's body at the moment - she wants to replace Lily and Selene to pay for their life force, and compared to Aleister himself, Bayard's body is an adult, and the blood in his body is much stronger.
Aleister suddenly exhaled a breath of white breath, looked at the ice sculpture surrounded by the undead, and asked curiously: "Who is that?"
"The Count of Leipzig should be quite famous. But don't worry about it."
Adolf replied casually, frowning as he looked at Aleister, who looked like Bayard.
He pushed up his glasses and stared at it for a while before he half-guessed and recognized: "Aleister?"
"it's me."
Aleister smiled and said: "Why can't you recognize me after changing your appearance?"
"...It's still a bit similar, but they are both flesh and blood capsules of the soul."
Adolf relaxed and said harshly: "At least they all have black hair and green eyes. And they are all children of the moon..."
"It sounds like you are face blind."
"Oh, how is it possible? I also have a professional level in the path of beauty. My sketches back then were highly regarded in the art world..."
Old Adolf looked quite proud when he mentioned this.
"Star Antimony still has an art world?" Aleister was a little surprised.
This wasn't a weird thing, but she really hadn't heard of many artists in Xing Antimony - the artists from the Iris Kingdom next door were indeed very famous.
"Actually, there are quite a few. It's just that the artists from Star Antimony are usually in the Ziggurat."
Adolf chuckled: "Either a mentor or a student...either a corpse or a ghost."
The two looked at each other quietly for a while before Aleister realized that Vice Principal Adolf seemed to want to tell a bad joke.
Adolf coughed lightly and looked at Lily and Selene: "These two... must be who you said..."
"——Hui Tiansi's rebirth container."
Aleister became serious: "Please show me the way."
"Don't worry," Adolf nodded, holding up his staff and leading Aleister on the horse towards the elevator, "Teacher, he was already preparing the ceremony. When you left, the teacher thought that you would be able to control the madness.
The King of Hunting brought it back. And when you came here just now, the ceremony had already been warmed up and started."
As he spoke, he glanced at the ghost Pegasus under Aleister, hesitant and curious: "Is this...the King of the Wild Hunt?"
"Yes, my name is Heleqin."
The ghost Pegasus under Aleister suddenly said: "But this is just a gesture I use to hide my power."
"...Helchin!"
Adolf's tone was higher: "I have heard your name, an elf hero!"
"Oh... um."
Heleqin seemed to have something to say, but in the end he swallowed it back, nodded his horse's head and responded silently: "But now, I am just... the master's attendant."
"……Owner?"
Adolf looked at Aleister in shock.
Let a sixth-level Wild Hunt king be recognized as the master?
The Kings of the Wild Hunt are the souls of heroes who have made a contract with Weizhe. There is no contract in this world that allows mortals to forcibly bind the Kings of the Wild Hunt!
In other words, this can only be a master-servant relationship that Heleqin reached voluntarily...
"It's really amazing. Miss Aleister is actually so powerful... and I have never seen what the King of the Wild Hunt looks like."
Adolf was half regretful and half looking forward to it: "I hope I will have the opportunity to meet him later."
And Aleister finally realized that the old man was in a good mood: "This is the first time I have seen an extraordinary person on the twilight path. His excitement and curiosity are so clearly shown... It's because Heleqin is a sixth-level undead.
Really? I heard that you are cultivating sixth-level undead."
"No, that's two different things. On my side it's because of the Wild Hunt - I'm very interested in the Wild Hunt."
Adolf's voice rose slightly again: "That was the night that changed my life. It can even be said that it was the starting point for me to embark on the path of the dead..."
As he spoke, the old man fell into memories of the past.
Extraordinaries on the twilight path always like to recall the past. For them, the past is much clearer than the present:
"We have relatively few priests in Star Antimony, so there are more undead in the wild. My father passed away early, and when I was a teenager, I managed the family factory and ran business outside.
"Once, in order to rush for an order... I chose to force the train to leave at dusk. At the normal speed, it should be enough for me to reach the edge of the next city when it gets completely dark. Who would have thought that we would end up in the wild?
Attacked by monsters... Although there were no casualties, the car was damaged.
"The groom and the guards warned me that if I stayed at night, I would be attacked by the undead, and asked me to abandon the car and escape with them. But for me, the printing slates in that car were already about to time out... They
I bought them with a loan from Goblin Bank. If they are lost or damaged, I will have to pay a large amount of liquidated damages. At that time...my brothers, sisters and I will not be able to afford school.
.
"In Star Antimony, going to school is almost the only way for civilians to change their destiny. I was hot-headed at the time... Although it seems impulsive and stupid now, I didn't even think about how my mother and younger brothers and sisters would live if they left me. But I
I still resolutely chose to live or die with this truck of goods.
"As a second-level 'painter' at the time, I had a brush and a rubbing plate in my hand, so I was confident that I could deal with the weaker undead. As a result..."
"…and ended up encountering the Sea of the Undead?"
Aleister guessed how things would turn out.
Many people in the city don't know that the undead in the wild often go out in groups at night. There are not many undead in the fields near the city. In fact, this is because the candlelight of the church can drive away the undead. Even the bishop does not
The existence of the Blank Church itself will also sanctify the land, thereby expelling the undead to a certain extent.
——On the other hand, since the undead are unwilling to approach cities with churches before they form a certain size, where are they?
Naturally, they were all driven to the wilderness where they could not see the light of the city.
"...I originally thought that the number of undead souls that would attack me would only be three or four at most. But the number turned out to be more than ten times more than I imagined... Just the chill when they appeared made me tremble.
My fingers can’t draw steadily.”
Adolf sighed: "I really thought I was going to die here. Before I died, I suddenly realized that if I died here... how would my mother and my brothers and sisters live? They all
He is not an extraordinary person, nor has he inherited my father’s connections...
"——At that time, I saw the Wild Hunt. Led by the King of the Wild Hunt, they came through the clouds, killed the undead, and saved me.
"I was so cold that I shivered and even had hallucinations. Because of fear or cold, I didn't open the door of the carriage... so I never saw the King of the Wild Hunt. Since then, I haven't had time either
I went to pursue the Wild Hunt again. It was only then that I realized that the undead are not scary."
"King of the Wild Hunt of Star Antimony..."
Aleister recalled: "I remember that he should have carried the plague aura. He seemed to be a knight who died from the alchemist's poisoning during the Earth-Splitting War... he should be a nobleman of the Herasl Empire."
"...Was it the aura of plague? I said why I got seriously ill when I returned home. I thought it was because of the undead..."
"You haven't looked for it since?"
"Busy. And hard to find."
Adolf sighed: "The King of the Wild Hunt decides who to save and who to kill depends on his mood and luck. Even if I reach the fifth level, I have no confidence that I can survive the killing intent of the King of the Wild Hunt.
. Now I am almost... I originally planned to go find the King of the Wild Hunt who saved me back then after I handed over everything. It doesn't matter even if I die in his hands.
"That's probably my last chance to see the King of the Wild Hunt."
"No wonder you are so interested in the King of the Wild Hunt."
Aleister smiled and said: "Then you can see me soon."
While they were talking and laughing, the elevator had already risen to the top floor.
But there was still no one here. The lich was still preparing for the ceremony and did not come to greet anyone.
"Oh, by the way. There's one more thing..."
Adolf suddenly remembered: "The Count of Leipzig seems to be here to find you. He said that you are Hong Xiang's lover... Is this true?"
Like every person who adapts to the twilight path, he remembers things long in the past clearly, but easily forgets things in the near future.
"ha?"
Aleister was stunned for a moment, and then a surge of violated anger suddenly surged in his heart: "I have never seen them, father and son!"
Who are you? Are you worthy?
She felt her aggression rise immediately - Aleister felt at the same time the disgusting feeling of being a woman being targeted by sexual predators, and the disgusting feeling of being a man being stared at by lewd gay men. And the most terrifying thing was
Yes, Red Prime Minister Peng Bonaqi is most likely both.
"I think so too, so I'm rejecting it for you."
Adolf casually regarded "freezing the Earl of Leipzig" as "helping you push it off", but he also cautiously added: "But the earl mentioned... Red Chancellor Peng Bonazzi may wait later
I want to come to the Ziggurat. Unlike the Count of Leipzig, that one is a real big shot. He is not much weaker than the principal."
"... Under this heavy snow?"
Although Aleister would frown at the snowstorm caused by the Winter Division, she knew that the snowstorm would weaken the Children of the Moon far more than ordinary people.
For ordinary people, this is just a heavy snow that can isolate the sound. But for the Moon Child, this is an extremely unfavorable place - its essence is not much different from the Winter Demon.
"Do you want me to stop it for you?"
Adolf said thoughtfully.
"...No need. I will talk to him personally when he comes."
Aleister narrowed his eyes and said in a deep voice.
Adolf is definitely not the opponent of Red Prime Minister Peng Bonazi - the first generation of red and black prime ministers are all at least reaching the sixth level to fight the descending Tiansi. It's just that one crucial level is missing.
They will be suppressed by Tiansi.
But even so, the Fallen Sky Division has never come to trouble the two of them. This level of power, if Adolf is allowed to stop it, may cause something unexpected to happen to the old gentleman... Even in such a snowy day, Peng
Bonazzi's power is still unfathomable.
And when the time comes, Aleister's King of the Wild Hunt will be used as a container to carry Gray Tiansi's consciousness. In other words, Aleister will not be able to switch to the beast of sin that he is fighting...
When the operation is over... they will have a sixth-level Wild Hunt King out of thin air.
Rather than having a head-on conflict, it would be better to let Aleister talk to buy time. If Aleister guessed correctly, the "acquaintance" Pomponazzi mentioned should refer to the Shadow Demon Bayard——
He recognized the wrong person.
It just so happens that he is an old man from before the empire was disintegrated.
Aleister happened to have a question about Bayard.
Aiwass had asked the guardian spirit Diomedes during the promotion ceremony.
He said that before the empire was disintegrated, the first Moriarty made a deal with the Bayard family of the empire.
The specific content of that deal is unknown...but the curse of the Moriarty family was signed by the Bayard family.
Shadow Demon himself does not know about this, but Red Prime Minister Peng Ponachi may know more details.
At this moment, the lich Grunewald finally appeared.
"The ceremony is ready."
His hollow voice echoed: "Please come with me."
"Ah, teacher..."
When Adolf saw the first generation of black figures emerging from the void, he walked over and told him everything about how he had frozen the Count of Leipzig and what Pomponazzi might be coming soon.
"It doesn't matter."
Grunewald said calmly: "Let him come. Don't be afraid, child.
