"Master, I detected that when it answered your last question, its psychological fluctuations were different from the previous questions. It is basically certain that it is lying!"
Walking on the country road, the magic mirror said to William.
"I know." William replied calmly.
The blue fox thought "he" had concealed it well, but "he" didn't know that William was a person who had already seen through "his" destiny.
In the original script, the blue fox will lead the gardener's young son Servicus to the country with golden birds, to the country with golden horses, and to the country with beautiful princesses.
"He" obviously knew about the existence of animals made of gold such as golden horses and golden birds, and then "he" still swore there that "there are no such creatures in this world."
Such an abnormal behavior, if the ancient man named Yuan Fang in William's previous life came over, he would definitely say, "There must be a conspiracy in it."
William can also guess "his" conspiracy.
The Blue Fox is a would-be prince who was cursed by a mysterious and powerful wizard and turned into an animal.
Although the divine bloodline in his body was stimulated during this process, he possessed extraordinary abilities and was no longer the ordinary prince he was before.
But use human thoughts to control the body of an animal.
William thought this was unacceptable to a prince.
If you compare yourself with others, if William is "him", then the first thing "William" wants to do after gaining freedom is to break the curse and restore his body.
Yes, looking at the fairy tale "The Golden Bird", it is not difficult to see that the purpose of the blue fox is to restore the human body.
As long as the gardener's youngest son Servicus kills "him" with a sword, the blue fox will be reborn.
There are just a few questions, and William still can’t understand them!
First of all, why must Servicus, the gardener’s youngest son, kill “him” with a sword?
Can’t anyone else?
Oh, no, actually if you read the fairy tale "The Golden Bird" carefully, there are two other people who can.
Those were the gardener's other two sons.
Because the blue fox took the initiative to remind the gardener's eldest son and second son, but these two were too arrogant and blind and did not listen to the blue fox's words.
This actually implies that as long as you are the son of a gardener, you only need to have the blood of the gardener.
So is there anything different about the gardener’s bloodline that is different from ordinary people?
have!
The gardener and his sons all have the bloodline of an unknown wind god, and it has been activated.
Does this imply that the curse on the blue fox requires someone with the blood of a god to break it?
But looking back, the same question remains, why do you need the blood of the gardener?
Because people with the blood of gods are not just the gardener's family.
Does it mean that the son of a gardener must be involved in order to break the curse, or does it only require someone with the blood of a god?
William is still not sure about this.
Secondly, if the gardener's sons were simply allowed to kill the blue fox, "he" would be able to regain his human body.
In fact, in fairy tales, there are many opportunities.
When the gardener's eldest son and second son met the blue fox for the first time, they both shot "him" with bows and arrows.
At that time, as long as the blue fox waits for the kill, wouldn't "he" be able to regain his human body?
But no, the blue fox took the initiative to escape.
William guessed that there were two possibilities. The first was that the blue fox was dissatisfied with the "vicious" eldest son of the gardener, Galba, and the second son of the gardener, Anthony, so he ran away.
But when William looked at the first encounter between the two sons of Blue Fox and Gardener from a human perspective, he didn't think their behavior was too excessive. After all, it was just that they had different stances, and it had nothing to do with good or evil.
So William thinks this possibility is not high.
The second possibility is that when they first met, the conditions were not up to standard. In other words, the blue fox could not die at that time, otherwise it might be that he was really dead.
William felt that this second possibility was the highest.
So when did the blue fox ask the gardener's son to kill "him"?
After "he" helped the gardener's youngest son find the golden bird, get the golden horse, and win the heart of a beautiful princess, oh, by the way, this princess is the sister of the blue fox.
In other words, it was actually after the gardener's youngest son got the golden horse, the golden bird, and the blue fox's sister that the blue fox took the initiative to ask the gardener's youngest son to kill him.
In other words, are the golden horse, golden bird, and princess the necessary conditions for the blue fox to break the curse?
With the available information, William could not be sure and could only guess.
But even if the blue fox wants to break the curse on himself, he really needs so many conditions, so why are these conditions required?
In addition to the princess, the princess is the biological sister of the blue fox. Many curses require the help of blood relatives.
However, in the fairy tale, it was the gardener's youngest son who the blue fox asked to attack, never "his" sister.
It seems that "his" sister's job in the fairy tale is to cry, and she seems to have no sense of existence.
But why?
William suddenly thought of another possibility.
In fact, all the conditions - golden horse, golden bird, including the princess, and the gardener's young son.
They have one obvious thing in common.
That is, they are all gods.
Needless to say, the gardener's youngest son, their entire family has the bloodline of an unknown wind god.
The princess who appears in this fairy tale, her brother was inspired by the bloodline of an unknown water god, which means that the princess also has the bloodline of this unknown water god, but it has not been inspired.
As for which water god it is? William is still not sure!
First of all, the age of gods has passed away for a long time.
Secondly, there were a lot of water gods and sea gods in the Age of Gods. Poseidon, the sea god, is only the most famous among them, but he is not the oldest water god, and maybe not the most powerful one.
Well, for example, many novel authors in William's previous life were also very good at water, and were called water gods. They could even achieve enlightenment and become emperors, known as water emperors. William has been working hard in this area.
Back to the topic.
In addition to the gardener's youngest son Servicus, there is also a princess with the bloodline of an unknown water god, and the other golden birds and golden horses.
Gold represents the sacred and supreme, and is also the conspicuous external manifestation of many descendants of gods.
The higher the purity of the gold, the more pure the bloodline of the god is.
Golden Bird and Golden Horse, although William doesn't know which god they inherit the bloodline of - because the Golden Bird has fought against each other, William knows that its bloodline is related to the fire god. The specific one is still unknown, but there is no doubt.
, the blood of the gods in them is activated and explicit.
I don't know why, but William always feels that there is some unknown inner connection between these conditions, but it is hard to explain in detail.
William has always attached great importance to this feeling, because it is often a reminder of fate, a small gift from fate after he embarks on the path of the fate wizard.
But what is the connection between them?
William fell into deep thought.
…………………………………………………………………………………………………………
On the other side, in the grove outside the royal city of Omus Empire.
After confirming that William had left, the blue fox jumped directly into the water in front of him with a bang.
"He" was not frightened by William.
The moment "his" body touched the water, blue light covered "him" and instantly turned "him" into blue foam, blending into the water silently, just like water and milk blending together, indistinguishable from each other.
.
The water gurgled by and the wind blew gently.
The wind flowed through the pebbles on the river bed, and blew through the green leaves in the forest, and finally came to a cave covered by bushes deep in the forest.
There is a deep pool deep in the cave.
The water in the pool is clear and is a living spring connected to the river outside.
On the dark mirror-like surface of the pool, blue foam quickly gathered and piled up, and soon turned into the shape of a fox.
In an instant, the bubbles dissipated, revealing the body of the blue fox inside.
The blue fox stepped across the pool and came to the warm and cool cave floor.
At this time, the fear in "his" eyes was released without concealment.
"How terrible, this mysterious wizard!"
"Did he also come here for the Golden Horse?"
"Why is he looking for the golden horse? These bloody and cruel wizards will not do good things!"
The blue fox walked around the cave uneasily, muttering incessantly.
"No, if he really finds the golden horse, then my goal will never be achieved!"
"What a shame. That idiot didn't listen to me. Now he's fine. He's trapped in the Dionysian ritual and can't get out."
"No, I have to speed up."
"Damn it! But I can't approach the royal capital casually, otherwise it will be even more troublesome if someone from the Holy Light's Court notices me."
"Can I still just keep waiting?"
A feeling of uneasiness and being spied on emerged in the blue fox's heart.
The blue fox looked around and found nothing unusual.
"He" had to attribute all this to his own nervousness.
And somewhere on a small road in the countryside.
The magic mirror was suspended in front of William, and the scene shown on the mirror was exactly the scene of the blue fox walking around in his lair, mumbling to himself.
The magic mirror automatically dubbed "him" so that William could also know what "he" said.
"Sure enough, does it have an ulterior motive?"
"Anyway, I am determined to win the Golden Horse. Then I will accompany you to perform this scene."
…………………………………………………………………………………………………………
The gardener's eldest son Galba spends his days drunkenly in the "Carnival Hotel of the Unreturnable", and the money he brings with him flows away like water.
Also passing away is time.
It took about three or four days.
The gardener "accidentally" heard something from a certain unimpressive guard in the palace, saying that there was a young man with blond hair and golden eyes who was drinking heavily and causing trouble in a hotel outside the city. He was almost exhausted whether he had money to pay the bill or not.
He was taken away by the local affairs officer and imprisoned.
When the gardener heard the news, he was worried and angry. Angry that his eldest son was so unfulfilled, and worried that his eldest son's life was in danger, he had no choice but to send his second son Anthony to the tavern that the guard mentioned.
The gardener's second son Anthony came to the "Hotel of the Unreturnable" with contempt!
Sure enough, he saw his eldest brother Galba, but to his surprise, he did not find that his eldest brother was in a mess, but instead he was enjoying himself in the tavern.
With visible dissatisfaction, Anthony deliberately made a harsh sound with his shoes, but everyone in the tavern ignored him.
Then Anthony's dissatisfaction became more intense. He came to Galba and said, "Galba, my father asked you to go out to find the golden bird, but you are here to enjoy it. You have disappointed my father and me."
"Ah, look who's here, it's my dear brother, gentlemen and ladies, let me introduce to you solemnly, the man standing next to me is my brave and strong good brother, Mr. Anthony..."
Garbala spoke in a long tone and announced to everyone present in a high-pitched voice.
"Welcome! Galba's brother."
"Anthony, this banquet is missing a warrior like you. Come on, have a drink."
Different sounds broke into Anthony's ears, making him feel a little dazed and a little drifting for a while.
He opened his mouth, but couldn't utter a complete sentence.
At this time, a glass of yellow-orange wheat wine was pushed into Anthony's hand.
Anthony looked up and saw that it was his brother Galba, who was red-faced and smelling of alcohol, who pushed it to him.
"No, I don't drink. I want to take you back, Galba. Father is worried about you..." With only a little reason, Anthony refused the drink.
"Okay, after finishing this drink, I will go back with you." Galba said without blinking.
"Okay..." Anthony had no choice but to bring the wine glass to his mouth, glanced at the people around him who were caught up in the carnival, and began to drink heavily.
A unique feeling rushed straight into Anthony's brain, making him feel excited - or else, I'll have another drink and take Galba back. Okay, just have another drink.
Anthony took the initiative to drink a second glass of wheat wine, and some distance outside the "Inn of No Return", the blue fox looked anxiously at the situation in the tavern.
"Why did it come so fast?" Because of William's previous incident, the somewhat suspicious Blue Fox did not notice Anthony's arrival in time, and only found out after he entered the "Unreturnable Hotel"
.
But it was too late.
As a god whose bloodline has been activated, Blue Fox can feel that the entire tavern is really surrounded by an invisible and intangible force. Anyone who enters the tavern will be affected and fall into a carnival. Even if they are...
When "he" himself enters, he will be affected by this mysterious power and fall into a carnival.
The blue fox also sensed that a certain mysterious substance released during the carnival was absorbed into an unknown space.
Behind the space, there is a terrifying existence that makes the blue fox afraid to explore further.
