MTL - Tome of Blood-Chapter 243 -93- Lilith and Harald

  Chapter 243-93-Lilith and Harald

  Halfdan's tribe is located on a hillside.

  The dotted thatched houses surround the hillside in a patchwork pattern, and the winding dirt paths spiral up.

  Looking at the entire hillside from a distance, you can see the curling smoke, cattle and sheep eating grass roots, chasing and playing hounds, and busy humans wearing thick animal robes and furs.

  However, what attracted Charlotte's attention the most was the tall tower standing on the hillside in the center of the tribe.

  Different from the simple tribal thatched huts, the tower made of gray and white boulders has an obvious elf style, with exquisite reliefs and patterns painted on it, which is incompatible with everything around it.

   On top of the tower, a light blue crystal slowly floated, exuding a dense brilliance.

  Under the warm sunlight, you can see a faint light shield like a large upside-down bowl, covering the entire tribe on the hillside with the tower as the center.

   Is this... the Mage Tower?

  Charlotte was startled.

  Although it is slightly different from the mage tower built by the elf craftsmen in the Castel Territory, she can be sure that this...is the mage tower!

   "That is the Tower of Asylum, built by the Master Apocalypse sent by the central tower, it has incredible power..."

  Following Charlotte's surprised gaze, Halfdan explained.

   Tower of Asylum?

  Is this what people in northern Xinjiang call it...

  Charlotte was thoughtful.

  Halfdan continued to introduce enthusiastically:

   "Every tribe in the Kingdom of High Towers has a tower of protection, and only with a tower of protection can we survive the famine and magic changes..."

   "The Tower of Asylum is also the place where the Apocalypse adults descended. It is also the place where our daily sacrifices and offerings are made. The priests and elders I want to take you to meet also live there."

   After finishing speaking, Halfdan looked at Charlotte and said with a smile:

   "Master Tianqi Ensi, let's go in quickly, as long as we enter the domain of the Tower of Asylum, we will be completely safe."

  After hearing Halfdan's words, Charlotte withdrew her gaze from looking at the "Tower of Asylum".

  She nodded slightly, and followed Halfdan to the tribal camp.

  The two continued to advance along the winding dirt road, and everything about the tribe became clearer.

  Charlotte can even clearly hear the chirping of livestock and poultry, and see the smiling faces of children chasing and playing.

   And the moment she passed the faintly visible protective mask emanating from the high tower, scarlet ancient words suddenly appeared in her vision:

  【"The Holy Code of Blood" has detected a divine ritual that is being released—]

  【Skill Name: Moonlight Cage】

  【Caster: Mage Tower No. 58】

  【Recipient: Charlotte de Castel】

  【Effect of the spell: It was originally a domain-like protection spell "Moonlight Protection" bestowed on believers by the moon **** Artemis. 】

  【According to the magical effect, Moonlight's cage can be divided into shelter state, surveillance state, and divine punishment state. The current state is surveillance state. Under surveillance, any existence that enters the realm of divine arts will be checked and recorded. 】

  【Interception probability judgment: 100%】

  【Do you want to intercept? 】

  …

   Identity checks and records?

  Charlotte's heart moved slightly, and she naturally chose to intercept.

  In the era of mythology, although the Moon God and the True Ancestor were both victors, they were also rivals.

  Charlotte has seen records about the war between the vampires and the elves in the classics.

  She hasn't figured out the details of the Kingdom of High Towers yet, and she doesn't know the attitude of the elves. In this case, she can't reveal her identity, so she naturally doesn't want to reveal her identity.

  Passing through the transparent protective mask, Halfdan completely relaxed.

  He turned and smiled at Charlotte:

   "Lord Tianqi Ensi, we are completely safe now! I will go home first, bring back the harvest from this trip, and then take you to the Tower of Sanctuary to meet our priests and elders!"

  Charlotte nodded slightly, and said with a smile:

"thanks."

   Following Halfdan, Charlotte entered the tribe.

  Halfdan's popularity seems to be very good. Along the way, the residents coming and going greeted him one after another, asking him about the harvest of this hunting, and Halfdan responded one by one with a smile.

   After greeting, almost everyone's eyes will fall on Charlotte.

  No way, she is too eye-catching.

  Even if she put on a shabby fur coat, her natural beauty could not be concealed.

  The supple blond hair and delicate skin are completely different from the weather-beaten tribal people, let alone the aristocratic temperament that was forced to develop through a year.

   "Halfdan, this lord is..."

  Looking at Charlotte, the residents subconsciously used honorifics, and it was difficult to hide their curiosity in their eyes.

   "This is Lord Tianqi Ensi I met on the road! He is also my guest!"

  Halfdan proudly raised his head and introduced it to everyone.

   "Heir of the Apocalypse!"

  The eyes of the tribal residents suddenly changed.

  Their eyes on Charlotte suddenly changed from curiosity to awe, and many people quickly withdrew their eyes and saluted respectfully.

  Charlotte can even hear the whispered conversations of some people in the distance:

   "It turned out to be the descendant of Apocalypse!"

   "No wonder... no wonder she is so good-looking! Just like Lord Apocalypse..."

   "Halfdan's luck is really good, he was able to get close to an Apocalypse's heir... Now his identity as a Wild Hunter must be preserved?"

   "Not only can he retain his identity as a wild hunter, but if he can get on the way to the tower, his two poor children may also benefit!"

  The residents talked a lot, looking at Halfdan with envy.

  Charlotte was a little guilty.

  Although she guessed that the so-called Apocalypse's descendants were probably referring to the half-elves, she herself had nothing to do with the elves who sheltered these northern Xinjiang people.

  The residents in the tribe don't know these twists and turns, they are just very curious about Charlotte's identity.

The title of "Apocalypse Grace" is even bigger than Charlotte imagined. With Halfdan's introduction, more and more tribal people came to see the excitement after hearing the news, and they were about to take the not-so-wide The roads are blocked.

  In the end, even Halfdan couldn't stand it anymore, and quickly waved to disperse:

   "Okay! Okay! Don't be crowded here! I'm going to take Lord Tianqi Ensi to meet the priests and elders in a while!"

   It took a lot of effort before Halfdan retreated the crowd of onlookers.

   "Sorry, Lord Tianqi Ensi, many people in the clan have never seen the face of God so close, and you were surprised."

  Halfdan apologized.

  Charlotte waved her hand:

   "It's nothing, I'm used to it."

   She is really used to it. When she was worshiping in the church of the Holy King's Court, the crowd of onlookers was even more outrageous than now.

   After receiving this answer, Halfdan respected him even more.

   Among the respect, even a little gratitude:

   "Lord Tianqi Ensi, you... are really the most approachable Tianqi Ensi I have ever met. Thank you very much for your understanding!"

   "Please come with me! I still have a jar of honey wine in my family, I must invite you to taste it!"

  Following Halfdan, Charlotte went round and round, and finally came to a simple courtyard halfway up the hillside.

  In the courtyard, a young-looking silver-haired woman was feeding poultry.

  After seeing her, Halfdan's eyes suddenly softened, and he shouted happily:

   "Tamia! I'm back!"

  Hearing his voice, the young woman trembled slightly.

  She turned her head slowly, and after seeing Halfdan, she also showed a joyful expression:

   "Huff! You're back!"

   After finishing speaking, she put down the work in her hands, happily ran towards Halfdan, and hugged him.

  The two embraced each other, and separated after a while. Facing Charlotte's curious eyes, Halfdan introduced:

   "Lord Tianqi Ensi, this is my wife, Tamia."

   At this time, the young woman noticed Charlotte beside her.

   There was a flash of surprise in her eyes, and then she asked suspiciously:

   "Huff, this is..."

   "This is the lord I met on the road, a distinguished descendant of Apocalypse, and also our guest."

   Halfdan laughed.

   "Heaven... Apocalypse Grace!"

   Tamia exclaimed.

  She couldn't help but looked at Charlotte's ears, and then hurriedly stammered and saluted:

   "Big, big... my lord..."

   "Haha, don't be so restrained, Mr. Tianqi Ensi is different from other people, and he is very easy to get along with. Tamia, go and get me the honey wine I treasure!"

   Halfdan laughed.

   "Good! Good!"

  Tamiya saluted Charlotte, then hurriedly turned and entered the room in a panic.

   "Master Tianqi Ensi, this is the first time that my wife has seen an existence like you at such a close distance, and it made you laugh."

   Halfdan said embarrassedly.

"it's okay no problem."

  Charlotte quickly waved her hand.

   "Come with me quickly, go into the house and have a rest."

   As he spoke, Halfdan greeted Charlotte to enter the house.

  Halfdan's home is as simple as its appearance, with various utensils placed, but it is well organized.

  Charlotte and Halfdan sat face to face by the fire, and after a while Tamia went and came back, bringing a jar of carefully packed clay pots.

   "Master Tianqi Ensi, please taste our honey wine."

  Halfdan took the jar and poured Charlotte a glass.

  Charlotte nodded slightly:

"thanks."

   Picking up the cup and taking a sip, the sweet and sour taste has a unique flavor.

"not bad."

   she commented.

   After being recognized, Halfdan immediately smiled.

   Then, his gaze swept back and forth in the room, and he couldn't help looking at his wife:

   "Where's Tamia, Lily and Hal?"

   "They? They hung out."

   Tamia said.

   At this moment, a chirping sound came from outside, and two small figures rushed in suddenly, shouting:

   "Mom! Mom! I heard that Dad is back! He also brought a beautiful big sister! Is it true!"

  Charlotte looked over and saw two children.

  A boy and a girl were both about six or seven years old. The boy had the same blond hair as Halfdan, and the girl had the same silver hair as Tamia. Their pale little faces were full of innocent excitement.

   Seeing the two little guys, Halfdan's eyes softened again:

   "Lily, Hal, come here!"

   Greeting the two children to his side, he introduced Charlotte:

   "Master Tianqi Ensi, these are my two children, Lilith and Harald."

   "Poof..."

  Hearing these two names, the honey wine in Charlotte's mouth suddenly spewed out.
