latelenovela Chapter 589 Sword of the Earth
Chapter 589 Sword of the Earth
"I can't believe the legend is true?!"
After witnessing the existence of the Earth Sword Castle, N was extremely excited.
Ye Kai could even sense that his whole body was trembling slightly.
What happened to the Earth Sword?
"The Sword of the Earth seals the core legacy of the ancient Unova Kingdom, possessing unimaginable power!!"
“I have read about it in ancient documents.”
"Infallible and deadly, no matter how far away, it will be punished; its power reaches the heavens from the earth, its might shakes the universe..."
Seemingly noticing Rebecca and Liu Jing's confusion, N further explained.
"That castle is an ancient ultimate weapon!"
"It can deploy an invisible shield, unleash a massive aerial attack, and the building itself cannot be destroyed!"
"Its power comes from the combined efforts of several Calamity Spirits."
"Thus achieving a terrifying deterrent force that ensures the attack hits, kills instantly, ignores attack range, and covers the entire planet!!"
"I used to think this was just an exaggerated claim by the ancients, but I never imagined that the Sword of the Earth was a real thing!"
Ye Kai didn't take it seriously after hearing it.
What kind of big scene hasn't he seen?
What good is this Earth Sword, no matter how exaggerated it is?
Let's go check out the island.
Just as the three were rapidly approaching the island.
Meloeta's singing seemed to pause briefly.
Unexpectedly, the island suddenly disappeared a thousand miles underground and was covered by a thick white fog.
It seems that they want to set foot on this mysterious island called "Eindook".
Meloetta's singing is a must!!
The three pursued relentlessly.
However, it was discovered that Meloeta's singing would always stop at crucial moments because she needed to breathe.
"Maybe... I'll try this and see if it works."
Liu Jing tried alternating singing with Meloeta, and it worked.
Although her singing could not "pull" the entire island over like the divine power of Meroeta.
But whenever it was Liu Jing's turn to sing...
The island stopped its departure, effectively being held captive.
Even so.
Despite their combined efforts, the human and the elf could not close the distance between the island and the three of them to a point where they could reach the island.
[Unbelievable... Latios and Latias are already flying at supersonic speeds...]
Ye Kai had a sudden inspiration.
Let's try having the elves coordinate to perform "round singing" and see if it works.
……
"Phew... As expected of Rebecca, only you could come up with such an outrageous idea."
[You must always trust your first impression; any other thoughts that follow are often just attempts to correct that initial impression...]
N listened thoughtfully.
I realized that what she said made a lot of sense.
With the help of a group of elves performing a round song, the three of them...
They actually landed on this unknown island.
The key point is that this happened simultaneously with landing on the island.
They also passed through the invisible barrier covering the island.
In other words, even if the problem of distance from the island is solved.
If the barrier cannot be broken, then it is still impossible to reach the island...
This is so eerie! This island is practically alive!
Once ashore.
The three of them saw a large number of people dressed in ancient court attire, as well as a large number of slaves working.
"Who gave you permission to stop? Keep going!!"
"Snapped!!"
The whip lashed across the slave laborers again and again.
Ye Kai glanced at them and immediately saw the truth.
These slave laborers were ordinary people who had unintentionally come near the island at sea.
Some were tourists passing by the surrounding waters, while others were fishermen on the high seas...
As a result, they were forcibly captured by the island's natives and forced to work as slave laborers.
"Outsiders, you..."
"and many more!!"
Just as the soldiers in court attire tried to approach.
But then a leader appeared and stopped them.
Green hair, blonde hair, black hair... exactly as described in the prophecy, could it be...?
"I'll handle these three."
"Captain Green, isn't this against the rules?"
"Snapped!!"
The leader lashed out with his whip at the soldier who had voiced his doubts, causing the man to wince in pain.
"How many days have you been on the job, you little brat... Listen up."
"My rules are the rules!!"
Ye Kai heard the leader's thoughts clearly.
What do you mean?
A book of prophecy?
Looking at all the planes and countries he has visited.
Predicting the future is popular everywhere.
So much so that it has become a discipline and a business.
Did the people on this island foresee that they would come to the island a long time ago?
The leader was a middle-aged man with a square face.
He stepped forward and began negotiating with the three men.
The man first looked at the three of them, as if to say, "Who is in charge here?"
[Just tell me what you want to say.]
He was also taken aback.
Both N and Liu Jing looked like adults.
Surprisingly, the one who was really in charge was this blonde girl.
Besides, she also has a strange tail...
That's not right... The prophecy says...
The future king who will inherit the throne of the ancient Unova Kingdom is a being with half-elf blood.
Could it be... this girl?!
But the prophecy doesn't specify whether the king is male or female...
The man then glanced at Rebecca's bulging chest and examined her face closely.
"You rude bastard, if you look at her with those dog eyes again, I'll gouge your eyes out!!"
N breathed out.
"I didn't mean anything by it, I just wanted to confirm whether the prophecy was true..."
After all, there are many versions of the prophecy book.
Most of the versions that have been passed down say that the foreign king was a handsome young man.
The possibility of a man dressing up as a woman cannot be ruled out.
The Pokémon world is full of handsome men and beautiful women.
Some boys who haven't fully matured are often incredibly handsome, androgynous, even more beautiful than women.
There are also quite a few cases of men dressing up as women.
After all, there aren't many men on the island, and once they reach a certain age, they have to join the army.
Disguising oneself as a woman can be considered a way to evade detection...
"Let's get down to business. Where did you come from? How did you get to the island? What is your purpose? Tell us the truth!"
[hehe……]
Ye Kai also lost patience.
There's really not much to say about these isolated, closed-off islands and their uncivilized, feudalistic old-fashioned ways.
[Asking so many questions at once is really troublesome, so I'll just keep quiet.]
Rebecca's eyes glowed red as a fragment of her personality forcibly entered the man's mind.
Then a flood of information rushed into Ye Kai's mind.
It turned out to be the case.
This place has been the site of the ancient Unified Kingdom, where the twins fought for the throne, leading to the kingdom's downfall.
The descendants of the kingdom were relentlessly pursued by vengeful forces, and in the end, they had no choice but to flee overseas.
They haven't changed much in the last thousand years...
Among them, members of the royal family hold the core secret of the island, namely, control of the "Sword of the Earth".
The rest were either their retainers or servants.
They might be the royal guards stationed inside or outside the palace, or palace servants...
All these people, inside and out, number no more than 8000.
Over the long years, the kingdom continued to practice intermarriage within its borders in order to achieve so-called "noble bloodlines."
As a result, each generation is worse than the last!
It has led to many genetic diseases.
This genetic disease even affected the elves who were the warriors of the kingdom.
Only then did they dare to open the barrier and try to absorb some outsiders.
Since that was done, the situation on the island has improved considerably.
And that's how it's lasted until today.
As for why they didn't open the barrier and go outside...
Ultimately, it's because the island's high-ranking officials don't want to relinquish their power!
After all, the opening and closing of the protective barrier is in the hands of the core members of the royal family...
Once you understand these things, things will be much easier.
[Take us to see the king here.]
"Yes!!"
The captain of the guard responded expressionlessly.
He has now been stripped of his personal will and become Ye Kai's puppet.
Along the way, countless civilians, palace servants, and soldiers of the guard saw Ye Kai and his companions.
Compared to the islanders, the outsiders' clothing and attire were considered strange and unusual.
How could it not be attractive?
"Halt!! Who are you people?!"
"What's wrong with you? How could you bring an outsider so close to the palace? This is extremely disrespectful and will be severely punished!!"
Although Green held a high position as the captain of the guard in the outer city.
But even once inside the royal palace, he was nothing more than a minor official.
Unexpectedly, he drew his sword and suddenly stabbed the person who had just questioned him.
A sword pierced through his body, bringing a chilling sensation.
"Ah!! How dare you... Your family, none of them will live!!"
Before he died, the man uttered threatening words.
"Behind me stands the chosen monarch of the United Kingdom; those who stand in my way shall die!!"
The captain of the guard lined up his ace general, the commander, and four cavalrymen with swords.
They protected Ye Kai and the other two, and continued forward.
"Superpowers are really useful."
Liu Jing exclaimed in admiration.
They can turn someone who was just an enemy into a puppet who will fight for them.
Who wouldn't want such an incredible ability?
[What, you want to learn? I can teach you when I have some free time...]
"Rebecca, I want to learn too!"
N hates killing.
But in his heart, life was not entirely equal.
Rebecca was at least much more important to him.
This ability doesn't necessarily have to be used for killing; it can also help avoid a lot of trouble in daily life.
[Sure, I can teach you sometime.]
As the group continued their advance, the carnage within the palace intensified.
As a result, Green was wounded, and two of the pikemen were killed on the spot!
"How dare you! You've gone too far! A mere guard captain from the outer city dares to bring unknown intruders into the Sword Palace! Kill them all!!"
The middle-aged man was clearly someone in a position of power.
He was dressed in a magnificent high priest's robe, much like Quixote.
At his command, hundreds of royal guards formed battle formations.
Three layers inside, three layers outside.
They surrounded Ye Kai and his group, closing in relentlessly.
[Let's hurry, N, let those two out.]
"Isn't doing this a bit too much?"
