Chapter 214 The Tenth Apostle?
Even more boldly speculating, was it possible that the so-called "change of Emperor" had always been a lie from ancient times to the present, and every Emperor was actually the same person, that first generation Emperor?
The strongest proof was that no one had ever seen the Emperor take off the armor or remove mask he/she wears, never.
Even in front of these candidate princes, the Emperor was always the same and had never once risen from the "throne".
From then on, in the notebook, Danye, who already held a grudge against the Emperor because of Lana, immediately planned small moves in private.
He still had to run for Emperor and kill other competitors. This was to build momentum for himself.
But behind the scenes, he began to shelter and protect those human elites who should have been executed. .net
As for the method, it was actually in the Blood Moon Judgment that Reji experienced in the previous scene.
Originally, human elites were directly assassinated by the Court of Judgment.
But later, the Second Prince built a building like the Tower of Justice, made court projections, and made public trials.
Going to such great lengths was not for anything else, but to save this part of human elites.
Danye told the Emperor that if they kept assassinating, it would always arouse suspicion.
It would be better to find a legitimate reason, frame these people with fabricated crimes, and then execute them legally and reasonably.
But in fact, Danye had set up a sanctuary in Stillwater Prison.
He would secretly tamper with the insect eggs in the bodies of those human elites who were useful to him. In this way, although they also fell into Stillwater Prison after the trial, they would soon be taken away by Danye\'s "insider" in the prison and put these scholars in a safe place.
These human elites he saved were the forces that Danye accumulated to fight against the Emperor and also his last trump card.
However, in order not to be exposed and discovered by the Emperor, they could only live in the endless Stillwater Prison until the day of the final battle.
Unfortunately...
Reji shook his head and closed the notebook. The later the recording time of the notebook, the longer the interval. The last time was already half a year ago.
It could be seen that the pressure the Emperor gave Danye was getting greater and greater. Danye didn\'t dare to secretly go to Stillwater Prison anymore.
As for why Danye handed this jade core to him before his death, the meaning was also very clear.
If there was really someone in the world who could deal with the Emperor, then perhaps... he, this "descendant of the Hero", should be the most likely one.
This lighthouse was Danye\'s secret base in Stillwater Prison.
Reji walked up the stairs to the second floor, which was a teleportation room.
A large map was hanging on the opposite wall.
It was precisely the map of the entire Stillwater Prison drawn by the Second Prince.
Through the map, Reji saw that Stillwater Prison was like a spirally descending cone.
It was divided into four areas in total.
The exile area, the gloom area, the forbidden area, and... the gray unknown area that even the Second Prince seemed to have never reached and had no text labels or terrain drawings.
The higher the area, the safer it was.
Now the Second Prince\'s lighthouse base was located at the junction of the exile area and the gloom area.
And on the map, there was also a small area specially marked in the position of the gloom area.
Reji speculated that this should be the sanctuary that Danye created for those human elites who were exiled here.
It was also his next destination.
Danye let these scholars carefully study the Emperor and prepare for future revenge. Reji really wanted to meet these surviving human scholars. He believed that he could definitely obtain more information from them.
Through the teleportation array in the room, he could reach the entrances of the other three areas except for the deepest unknown area.
But Reji was not in a hurry to leave.
There was still one floor of the Second Prince\'s lighthouse base that hadn\'t been explored. For a mature player, it would be very impolite not to visit every corner of someone else\'s home.
The space on the third floor of the lighthouse was very small.
This place was like Danye\'s "alchemy synthesis" room.
The shelves in the room were filled with various containers full of liquid.
And in these containers, one could see various biological parts and organs being soaked.
Among them were various human organs, the five viscera and six bowels.
But this was only a very small part.
Reji also found furry ears that were obviously one size larger than humans, which were clearly from the beastman race.
In addition, the white and pointed ears and wings soaking in the container next to it should be from the elf race.
Various insect race limbs were not even mentioned.
What surprised Reji the most was that every few intervals, he could see huge deformed horns, with the word Tiefling labeled at the bottom of the container.
And organs that were obviously one size smaller than humans, with the word Dwarf labeled at the bottom of the container.
There were also some that could be seen at a glance to be from other races without looking at the words, such as the gills of the fishmen, the noses of the goblins, the palms of the giants, the scaly tails of the naga mermaids...
Reji even saw red dragon scales that were as hot as fire even when soaked in a jar.
So... the "synthesis raw materials" that the Second Prince mentioned in the notebook as given to him by the Emperor referred to these?
Sure enough, in addition to the elves, half-orcs, and star spirits I encountered, there were many other races that had also come to the human world.
And the reason why the human world generally knew nothing about this, could it be because these other races had all... died?
Or... Who said that Stillwater Prison could only hold humans?
Reji looked at these "synthesis materials" in the containers. Many of them didn\'t look like some ancient relics, but were very fresh.
After carefully exploring the lighthouse base up and down and making sure there were no hidden rooms, Reji had collected enough information and returned to the teleportation array here.
Stepping into the array, he still used that jade core to activate it. With a flash of light, Reji\'s figure disappeared from the lighthouse. The next moment, he arrived at the entrance of the gloom area on the map.
Here, the visibility immediately dropped to maybe only seven or eight meters. This was only the location of the entrance. The density of that strange gloom inside the real gloom area was much greater than the entrance.
Reji continued to advance. This time, he had only taken a few steps when he discovered a sneaky and elusive figure at the edge of the entrance.
Here, "sneaky" was not a metaphor.
"Squeak, not bad, not bad. It seems that the newcomer exiled this time has quite some strength. Squeak, to be able to reach the gloom area so quickly, squeak."
This figure also discovered Reji and immediately approached.
When it got closer, its appearance could be seen more clearly. It was a rat-man about three meters tall, slightly hunched over, with two huge sharp fangs exposed, covered in fur all over its body, wearing a tattered cloak...
The rat-man who came to Reji\'s side kept sniffing at Reji with its large brown-black nose full of sweat glands, seeming very satisfied with Reji\'s scent. Its narrow eyes kept looking Reji up and down, as if restraining some kind of desire to eat.
It swallowed, seeming to have successfully endured it, and continued to say to Reji in a sinister tone:
"Newcomer, no matter what crime you committed outside, once you\'re here, you have to follow the rules of Stillwater Prison."
"If you don\'t know, of course you don\'t know, that\'s why I\'m here, specially responsible for teaching you newcomers. Believe me, you humans are only at the bottom of the food chain here. Those other races imprisoned in Stillwater Prison, their evil and power, far exceed your imagination and will completely overturn your perception."
"So... squeak, listen well. To survive here, the first step you need to do is to offer your tribute to me, the greatest rat-man, also the most loyal envoy of His Bloodiness, and the Tenth Apostle of the Demon Race who has destroyed countless worlds, the Rat Demon Apostle Skaven! Squeak!"
