Eternal night is also dark night, but the lights in Heiliu City are brightly lit.
Perhaps because the forces of the two camps were concentrated on the Battle of Floating Continent, the dark races facing Blackstream City had already shrunk their front lines. Not to mention large-scale troops, even small reconnaissance and hunting troops had become rare.
The rare few months of peace have made Blackstream City become more prosperous and the flow of people is booming.
A high-speed aeroboat broke through the void and fell directly to Black Current City. This aerostat was unusually fast, like a flying bird. In the blink of an eye, it had landed in the center of the aerostat landing site, so fast that the guards did not even react.
come over.
The officer in charge of the take-off and landing field rushed over. He was quite knowledgeable and knew that aerostats with this kind of performance were rare in the entire empire. Those who could own such aerostats were extraordinary nobles.
When he arrived, the door of the aerostat had already been opened, and Song Zining walked out calmly.
This officer was also from Song Zining's lineage. He hurriedly greeted him and said, "Seventh Young Master, are you back?"
Song Zining asked: "Is there anything unusual recently?"
"Everything is fine."
Song Zining nodded and walked towards Blackstream City. He walked calmly, but he left the landing field in a few steps and then disappeared in the direction of Blackstream City.
The officer couldn't catch up and stopped in shock. He didn't understand why the usually calm Qi Shao was so anxious.
In a quiet courtyard in a corner of the Dark Fire Headquarters, Nighteye sat in the courtyard, as quiet and peaceful as ever. But in her hand was no longer a book and a teacup, but a short knife as thin as a cicada's wings. This is the top vampire
The entire Monroe clan only has three swords called 'Scarlet'. As a former princess, Nighteye was able to take charge of one of them.
Since coming to Black Stream, Nighteye has never used Scarlet again. This is the first time in several months that it has seen the light of day.
Nighteye gently wiped the blade edge with a white cloth. Under the starlight and moonlight, a layer of rippling red appeared on the blade edge, like flowing blood.
At this time, there was a soft and rhythmic knocking at the courtyard door, and then Song Zining pushed the door open and entered. When he saw that he was wiping his scarlet night pupils, Song Zining was slightly startled.
Ye Tong did not raise his head, but concentrated on wiping the edge of the blade, and asked calmly: "Whose hands did Qianye get injured?"
This sentence immediately wiped out the long speech Song Zining had prepared. After a moment of silence, he said: "The Witch of Macefield."
Hearing this name, Ye Tong's hand trembled slightly, and then he asked nonchalantly: "The witch has awakened? But why Qianye?"
Song Zining smiled bitterly and had to briefly tell the story of that day's battle. After finishing the story, he thought about it and added: "As far as I know, Qianye was not included in the original plan. Who could such a thing happen to?"
I didn’t even think of it.”
Nighteye said nothing more, put down the white cloth, and wiped the blade lightly with her fingers. The blade passed over her skin silently, leaving a thin red line and taking away a drop of crystal blood.
At this moment, the silence in the courtyard was suffocating. Song Zining took a deep breath, but the feeling of suffocation did not ease at all. He finally couldn't help it and said: "Don't you... ask Qianye how he was injured?
?”
Ye Tong's answer was: "Since she is a witch, there is no need to ask anymore."
"I" Song Zining wanted to speak, but the rest of the words couldn't come out.
"I know that those of you who plan the plot will always make mistakes."
"That's true, but" Song Zining couldn't continue.
"But what?" Nighteye asked.
Song Zining took a deep breath and said: "I want to say that it's up to people to plan things, and it's up to God to make things happen. If we don't plan, there will be no merit or demerit. But how can we not do it just because we have no merit or demerit? But if we don't do it, we will have no merit or demerit.
If you make a plan, you may make a mistake.”
"So it's okay to be wrong. You will never be wrong."
Song Zining didn't know what to say. After a moment, he sighed heavily and said, "Why do you blame us?"
"You don't know anything about the witch, so you dare to let Zhao Jundu fight?" Ye Tong didn't finish her words, but her meaning was very obvious. If it weren't for this matchup arrangement, there would be no final battle between Qianye and the witch.
war.
Song Zining was immediately speechless.
He wanted to say that this was not his idea, but as one of Zhang Boqian's staff, he knew more or less about this battle. Perhaps it was because of his soft words, or perhaps because of his confidence in Zhao Jundu, Song Zining did not choose to stop it.
In fact, he didn't know the specific arrangements, let alone the agreements behind the scenes.
Nighteye put the 'Scarlet' into the scabbard and put it in her arms. Finally she looked up at Song Zining and said, "What you want to say can be said now."
Under her clear gaze, Song Zining felt that he had never experienced such a difficult moment in his life. Those words were rolling in his chest, but he couldn't say anything.
Ye Tong smiled with an indescribable meaning. She was extremely beautiful, but underneath the beauty there was ice burning. She said slowly: "Qianye's recovery may require an ancient blood pool. What have you prepared for me?"
"Some information and arrangements." Song Zining's voice was low.
"Information is enough. Support? Haha. When can I get the information?"
Song Zining took out a piece of paper with several locations and names listed on it, and said: "In the Twilight Continent, these people will provide you with help. The contact information is already listed here."
Then, Song Zining took out another map, drew a winding route on it, and marked key points. This was his planned retreat route and the location where reinforcements would be deployed.
It can be seen from the layout of this retreat route that Song Zining made great determination and activated many lurking agents to block the attack at all levels, trying to get Nighteye out of pursuit at all costs.
Looking at Ye Tong, Song Zining's eyes were very complicated and he said: "I think you can understand what I mean. I can't accompany you there."
"Understood." Nighteye interrupted him and asked, "Where is the time?"
"Within two days, just arrive at the landing point on the Twilight Continent. Someone there will give you the necessary information. The aerostat is ready, and it's the one I came on."
"In other words, I need to leave now."
"Yes." The word was like a stone, and it finally came out of Song Zining's mouth.
Ye Tong returned to the room and came out with a backpack after a while. It seemed that she had been prepared and had packed everything. Only then did Song Zining notice that Ye Tong was not wearing her usual loose skirt, but
He changed into combat attire.
At this time, there was no need to say anything more. Song Zining silently accompanied Ye Tong out, boarded the car with her silently, and then silently sent her to the aerospace boat.
The aerostat quickly lifted up, pointed straight into the void, and disappeared into the depths of the night in the blink of an eye.
Song Zining stood silently on the take-off and landing ground, motionless for a long time. This was perhaps the most difficult decision in his life.
In the next few days, Song Zining kept traveling between the continents, spending almost all of his time on the airship. Everywhere he went, he would meet some people, mobilize some resources, and make some arrangements. As his footprints continued to expand
, the ripples stirred up gradually gathered together and gradually turned into waves. When the waves reached the Yongye camp, they had already turned into waves.
In the world of Evernight, some families suddenly find that the surrounding environment is no longer peaceful. Or a certain weakness is suddenly discovered by a hostile family, perhaps a certain secret operation is exposed, or some old conspiracies are inexplicably leaked. In short, these things
It's not hard enough, but it's troublesome enough.
If you connect these isolated things together, you can see that they are faintly connected in a line, pointing directly to the depths of the Twilight Continent.
Naturally, Song Zining's crazy activities could not be hidden from anyone who was interested. Almost as soon as he left, his whereabouts and arrangements would be reported and sent to the desks of several powerful people who were secretly paying attention to the matter.
These things are really complicated and seem to be chaotic and have nothing to do with each other. However, these people have been in high positions for a long time and have experienced countless conspiracies and conspiracies. It is obvious at a glance that there are many cover-ups. There must be some things in them that are completely different.
It's meant to mislead.
But I know that it is not easy to sort out the mess of clues.
Seven days later, Song Zining returned to Blackstream City. This time he did not do anything. He just sat alone in front of the window and looked at the huge shadows on the night sky. By this time, everything that should be done had been done, and the rest was left.
All we have to do is wait for the results.
But he also knew that no matter how careful the arrangements were, no matter how perfect the coordination arrangements were, they could not change the fact that he could hardly exert any strength on the most critical link. The depths of the Twilight Continent were like a deep
The bottomless black pool has never been set foot in by human beings.
It is the holy land of the Blood Clan, the habitat of the Queen of the Night/Lilith, and the source of the Thirteen Clans. It is said that in the deepest part of the Twilight Continent, there are hidden secrets about the ancient blood river and the first drop of blood. Even Zhang Boqian
Relying on the ability to cross the void, he traveled deep into the Twilight Continent alone, and never set foot in the Queen of Night's territory.
Not to mention the current Song Zining, even if Lin Xitang planned it himself, he would not be able to attack the deepest dark area.
In that area that the empire knew nothing about, there were countless ancient vampires sleeping. Even with the transformation power of Three Thousand Floating Leaves Jue, Song Zining still knew that once he stepped into that area, he would never be able to get out again.
The mission of this trip was not to die, but to awaken Qianye. So Song Zining could only place all his hopes on Ye Tong. When she set foot on the Twilight Continent, all Song Zining could do at this moment was pray.
This feeling of powerlessness is uncomfortable. Now Song Zining suddenly envies Wei Potian. The eldest prince of Wei is angry when he should be angry and laughs when he should laugh, but he rarely thinks about why he is angry or laughs. He is just heartless.
Living on earth. Being able to think less makes it so easy.
At this time, the door opened and Nan Hua walked in. There was a bottle of wine and two wine glasses on the tray in his hand.
Song Zining frowned slightly, but still said gently: "It's so late, why don't you rest?"
Unexpectedly, Nanhua said: "I know you are in a bad mood, so I want to have a drink with you."
Song Zining was quite surprised. But at this time, wine is the best way to drown sorrows.
So he picked up the wine glass.
PS: Sure enough, the fog is as thick as the Empire, and the haze is as mellow as Beijing. On the last night of departure, I was still defeated by the Beijing-flavored haze, and my eyes were irritated and inflamed again.
Then the flight was delayed again (note the word), and finally the two-day extra plan was scrapped.
