Chapter 1185: back road
"Teacher, what are you doing?" Under the dim light of the crescent moon, Lilina Dracula saw that her teacher, the great Count Dracula, was busy in the field. She couldn't help flying over and asked curiously.
Decades of time have not left obvious traces on her body. At first glance, she is no different from the orphaned girl who starved to death at home back then. However similar on the outside, the inside is completely different. As a legendary mage, she is now second only to Count Dracula's "Spirit of Domination", and her strength is the No. 1 figure in the entire Western Continent.
Flying is not difficult for her.
When she came closer, she could see what the teacher was doing - Locke Dracula was burying an extremely complex rune underground, and then deployed a magic circle around it to provide it with reliable protection.
Her magical attainments are extraordinary. After a little observation, you can see that this rune should have the effects of "transforming anger into death qi" and "maintaining death qi from leaking" - other effects are not clear, at least these two effects should be is available.
This made her wonder, what is the use of such runes?
In the face of her teacher, Lilina has always been straightforward - this is something that Count Dracula has always advocated.
"Life is short, and you don't have so much time for you to go back and forth. If you want to say, say it early; if you want to do, do it early. Don't wait until you are old, and you can't do what you want to say. I can't find anyone to talk to, and I will regret it again."
In a notice, he once said so.
"This rune... is hope." Faced with the student's question, Locke was silent for a long time before he sighed and said slowly, "At least, I hope it will become the hope of the future - no, I hope it will not become Hope. But if I really need it to be hope, I want it to be what I want."
Lilina was confused by what the teacher said, and looked at the teacher in confusion, her purple eyes full of confusion.
Locke sighed again and explained the cause and effect of the incident in detail.
"I'm not sure about the dragon of doom," he said. "So, I have to prepare for the future. If we fail, there will be a large piece of land separated from the Western World, drifting into the distance, as far as possible. .I'm not sure if this will save you from disaster, but...you have to try."
"After leaving the Western World, don't we have nothing to eat, drink, or even air?" Lilina was shocked, and immediately understood the teacher's design-the teacher wanted to turn everyone into undead, because only undead, to adapt to such a life.
Necrons do have a huge advantage when it comes to "survival."
However, in order to survive, it is necessary to become a undead, and even if it becomes a undead, drifting and fleeing in the dark world, it may not be able to survive... Thinking that the people led by Dracula may encounter such a future, Locke I felt uncomfortable, as if something grabbed my heart and lungs, and the pain was unbearable.
He spent decades building this barren and remote land into a peaceful and prosperous paradise. He has walked through every city and village here, inspected every farmland, and lectured in every classroom... He watched his ideals gradually become a reality here. Although it was hard work, he was full of a sense of accomplishment. Satisfy.
However, all of this may soon disappear without leaving a trace...
He couldn't help clenching his fists, his sharp nails cut through the skin that was strong enough to withstand the sword, and blood dripped down.
Lilina noticed the scene, but wisely said nothing.
In the entire Dracula Land, she was the one who accompanied the teacher the longest, and the one who understood the teacher the most.
To make such a decision, the teacher himself must be the most painful. But even if he was in pain, he didn't need anyone's comfort.
He is the Optimus Prime led by Dracula, he is always as unshakable as a rock, only others will always rely on him, and he will not rely on anyone.
"If that day does come... everyone, please." After a long time, Locke said in the calmest tone possible, "There must always be a strong person to lead the team."
"Can't anyone else?" Lilina asked with a frown.
Locke smiled: "I don't worry about your work."
Lilina pouted, her face full of displeasure, but she didn't protest any more.
"Go and rest first." Locke said, "I'm not in a hurry, take your time. It is estimated that there will be some time to prepare for me."
Lilina hesitated for a while, then turned to leave. In the vast wilderness, only Locke was standing there alone.
He stared into the distance, near the horizon, where he could see the lights of the town.
In the dark night, he stared at the lights for a long time, motionless, as if he had turned into a stone.
"I don't agree!" The former Queen Alanz cut her husband off before he could finish.
"...you know what I'm going to say?"
"It's nothing more than letting me run away with some people, what else could it be?" Katarina sneered, "Who am I? I am the founding monarch of the Kingdom of Ellants! Everyone else can run, but I can't!"
Liu Daoqing sighed: "Don't feel so good about yourself! You have abdicated for many years!"
"You also know that I abdicated for many years. If you really want to run, just let Ada lead the retreat." Katerina rolled her eyes and said, "And you think, I am a legendary powerhouse anyway, fighting. Sometimes, it can still be helpful.”
"I can't help a legendary powerhouse that I can kill with one finger." Liu Daoqing shook his head, "Our battle with the Dragon of Doom is too high-end, and most of the legendary powerhouses are even cannon fodder in that kind of battle. No. Do you still want to help? Don't let me distract you from protecting you, I'll be thankful..."
Katerina blushed with anger, and shouted angrily: "You...you look down on people too much!"
Liu Daoqing sighed, raised his hand, and the yellow light flickered. Katarina was shocked, but it was too late to resist, she was stunned by a spell, and then she was sealed in a large piece of yellow crystal.
Liu Daoqing sent out a voice transmission, and a moment later, His Majesty Ada, the contemporary king of Ai Lanz, hurried over.
"Mom will leave it to you for the time being." Liu Daoqing pointed at the yellow crystal, "Wait until our last battle is over. If we win, it will be good, if we lose... I will unseal her on the way to escape. Bar."
Ada had heard from her parents about the danger she was about to face, and after a few seconds of silence, she asked, "Where to flee?"
"I'm not sure yet, but... In short, make preparations to escape first." Liu Daoqing replied, "Be prepared in advance, there is nothing wrong."
Ada nodded and put away the sealed crystal with a magic tool. Just as she was about to leave, she couldn't help but ask, "Dad, we... can't really win?"
"It may not be impossible to win, but the hope is indeed not great." Liu Daoqing nodded with a wry smile, "In short, you should prepare first, I will talk to others, and I will definitely discuss a suitable escape route."
"...Can you really escape?"
"Always try." Liu Daoqing looked at the sky outside through the window uncertainly, "Always...try it!"
