Tome of Blood

Chapter 639-138- Eugenia's Memory

Charlotte wondered if this was a coincidence.

But when the scenes in the "prophecy" began to appear in reality, her eyes couldn't help but freeze.

Fortunately, after reading the letter, she was already more or less mentally prepared.

So, although she was stunned for a moment, she remained calm.

"At least... this shows that it is indeed a picture of the future, and it also points out the direction for my next actions."

The summer solstice road.

Thinking of this, Charlotte looked at Eugenia again.

This witch of predestination calls herself the descendant of sin, obviously not just because the Ness clan once betrayed the True Ancestor.

In fact, considering that many vampires have inexplicably lost a large section of their memories from thousands of years ago, Charlotte doubts that the "saint" of the Ness clan in front of her knows further secrets.

Thinking of this, she suppressed the thoughts in her mind and said calmly:
"Oh? Descendant of sin? It sounds like you still remember a lot of things?"

Eugenia looked a little gloomy.

She nodded and said with some heaviness:
"Destiny is really... too cruel. If I could, I really hope that I could forget everything like the other vampires, but... I can't forget."

"Perhaps this is the price of betrayal. We were once tempted, we once lost ourselves, we... once mistakenly raised the sword to you..."

"I thought we were on the right track, but in the end I realized it was all a false illusion..."

"For thousands of years, I have been wandering between illusion and reality, seeing the scene of disaster again and again. I can't tell whether it is reincarnation, or a series of similar yet different worlds, or... the past and future that repeat themselves..."

"I can only feel the pain of my soul being torn apart between illusion and reality. Even His Majesty Cosi is helpless against this. As for me... I can only alleviate the pain of living a life worse than death by constantly sleeping and reincarnating..."

"Everyone calls me the Saint of Prediction, but only I know that I just used those memories that seemed real and illusory to glimpse a familiar scene."

"Until... your move just now, I finally felt the relief of my soul."

Having said this, Eugenia bowed respectfully to Charlotte again.

Seeing the other person looking full of energy and as if reborn, Charlotte's heart moved slightly.

Apparently, Eugenia has been suffering from the "curse" of the remaining pages of the holy text for thousands of years.

Ordinary vampires cannot grasp the remaining pages of the holy book, and if they do, they will fall into madness sooner or later. Although the remaining page in Eugenia's body is just a corner of the book and not enough to cause her self-destruction, it has always brought her soul-tearing pain.

But there are two sides to every coin.

The fragment of the holy book just now was different from the ones Charlotte had collected so far. It was a fragment of the holy book that should not exist in this time and space. The fragment itself had the characteristics of time and space disorder. Eugenia, as the host, suffered backlash and naturally gained some unique abilities.

That is the power of the space-time anchor.

In other words, Eugenia would inadvertently see the world restarting countless times.

She remembered everything that Lilith had experienced, and everything that Charlotte had experienced after traveling through time. Except for the fact that she could not tell the difference between Lilith and Charlotte due to the fusion of their personalities, she remembered all the other memories.

And this is the real reason why Eugenia was able to make "accurate predictions" many times in the past and was valued by the stargazer Cauchy.

But obviously, even the stargazer Cosi didn't figure out what happened to Eugenia, otherwise, Charlotte wouldn't have seen the fragment of the holy book until today.

The status of that fragment of the Holy Scripture that shouldn't exist in this time and space... might be higher than Charlotte imagined. Although it was only a corner, it seemed to condense the root of the entire Holy Scripture of Blood.

Obviously, it was probably no coincidence that this fragment of the holy book fell into this time and space.

Rather than a coincidence, Charlotte felt that it was more like a deliberate act by some being, perhaps Lilith, or perhaps herself in the previous reincarnation. And the purpose was probably not just to create a "Saint of Prediction" Eugenia, but probably to convey something to Charlotte, or to provide something.

Deep in her consciousness, the Holy Book of Blood flickered slightly, as if it agreed with Charlotte's judgment. Charlotte could clearly feel that after integrating this fragment of the Holy Book, the Holy Book of Blood seemed to have become more spiritual, and even had some signs of being an intelligent artifact. The power it possessed was more like the superposition of two Holy Books of Blood, becoming even more powerful.

Not only that, the power of the Blood Book of Divination has also been further enhanced. Now Charlotte can even use it to "peek into the future" like that letter.

Of course, she could not see much, and she had to have a medium. Charlotte could feel that as time went by, the power of observation seemed to be gradually suppressed by the will of the world. Obviously, this should also be a sign of the awakening of the will of creation.

But the changes to the Blood Code go far beyond this.

Charlotte vaguely felt that the characteristics of time and space were also bestowed on the Holy Book of Blood, and the Holy Book of Blood's ability to travel through time and space had also subtly changed. It could even allow Charlotte to stay in history for a longer time at the cost of consuming the Holy Book's original power.

'Are you hinting that the next time I travel through time, I should directly fill in the long historical gap of the Blood Dynasty era?'

Charlotte thought to herself.

However, she instinctively felt that this power seemed to be a waste of resources. After all... consuming the original power meant irreversible wear and tear and weakening of the artifact.

However, why did this fragment of the holy book come to Charlotte with the help of Eugenia's audience? Perhaps... we still need to get the answer from Eugenia.

With this thought in mind, Charlotte looked at the Saint of Prediction again:

"So...what force guided you here?"

This was a question that came without any warning or context, but Eugenia seemed to have known that Charlotte would ask this question.

She took a deep breath and shook her head gently:
"I have no idea."

"I just heard a voice in the dark, and got some kind of revelation between illusion and reality. I have been waiting for you, waiting for your return, and waiting for an audience today."

"I... I don't quite remember when I heard that voice. I only remember that voice telling me—"

"Take the sin and the key and wait, wait for its owner to come, wait until... the day when everything is returned to its original owner."

key?

Charlotte frowned slightly.

She knew that this should refer to the fragment of the holy book, but she didn't understand why it was called a "key".

Charlotte wanted to ask more questions, but it was obvious that this was all Eugenia knew. After all, she was a "mortal" and could not judge the origin of the revelation.

"It must be the existence that threw the holy book into this time and space. If it's not Lilith, then it must be me in another time and space."

Charlotte thought.

Since Eugenia couldn't answer this question, Charlotte focused her attention on the other person's "memories".

Thinking of this, Charlotte mobilized her divine power and placed the power of her soul on the other party.

A true god is much more skilled than a demigod in reading memories.

Of course, the prerequisite is that the other party cooperates.

After all, no matter what, Eugenia is now no longer suppressed by the fragments of the holy book, her strength is already legendary, and her soul strength is naturally no longer what it used to be.

Of course, the Saint of Prediction did not resist.

With the blessing of divine power, countless fragments of memory flooded into Charlotte's mind.

It was a double superposition of the images that Eugenia had seen between fantasy and reality for thousands of years, as well as Eugenia's own memories.

Charlotte saw Lilith's reincarnations, and also saw her own reincarnations in the past.

This is more fragmented than the reincarnation memory that Charlotte had seen with the help of Lilith's "residual soul", but also more comprehensive.

Of course, there are also memories of the vampire rebellion thousands of years ago.

However, perhaps because Eugenia’s status was not high at the time, the memory information was very limited.

Judging from the memories that were read, the True Ancestor of Blood, or Lilith, at that time was really devouring other vampires in large numbers, causing unprecedented panic among the vampires.

However, when Charlotte tried to take a closer look, these memories quickly dissipated like broken fireworks.

Charlotte frowned.

She stopped reading and looked at Eugenia's confused expression. She felt a little depressed and had some bad guesses.

"Eugenia, do you still remember what happened a thousand years ago?"

Charlotte asked.

Eugenia hesitated for a moment and shook her head gently:

"Your Majesty, I...seem to have forgotten it a long time ago."

really!

夏洛特心中一沉。

Eugenia's ability to remember everything comes from the fragment of the holy book in her body.

Without the remaining pages of the holy book, she lost her resistance like the other vampires, and somehow "forgot" the memory of history.

"You go down first."

夏洛特叹道.

Eugenia hesitated for a moment and respectfully withdrew.

Charlotte fell into deep thought:
"Eugenia did remember everything in the past, the 'lost history'."

"But without the suppression of the Holy Scripture Fragments, she forgot everything."

"But she once remembered those experiences. In a sense, even if there was a reason for the suppression of the Holy Scripture, doesn't it mean that 'history' has not completely become a blank? Because there were people who once remembered the past..."

"Or... the so-called history can actually be influenced by the will of the Creator?"

"So, filling in the blanks in history... is it really just filling in the blanks in history?"

The more Charlotte thought about it, the more she felt that the time and space of Miriam's world seemed deeper than she had imagined, and the omnipresent will of creation was probably far more powerful than she had imagined.

In a sense, she even felt like Sun Wukong, and the will of creation that enveloped the world was like the invisible Five Finger Mountain.

"My preparations are far from enough. Even though the Guardian Staff has confidence in me, I know... my preparations are far from enough."

"I have not yet fully understood the existence of the will of creation. My only chance of winning is to take advantage of the opponent's weakness and suppress it with the help of my status as an 'alien visitor' that will not be contaminated by the original laws!"

"This is a race. Although I am not fully prepared, I am indeed running out of time, because... with each passing day, I am getting stronger, and the will of creation is awakening further."

"It seems that I must find the elves who prayed for God's descent in front of the Sun Altar as mentioned in the 'prophecy' as soon as possible."

"I'm afraid Helios is not really dead. He is the agent of the God of Creation. Behind every step of his actions is the will of the Creator. If we want to prevent the further revival of the will of creation, we must first prevent his return!"

The summer solstice road.

If it were in the past, Charlotte would probably have a hard time finding the elves who prayed to the Sun Altar as described in the "prophecy".

But now it's different.

This time, the upgrade of the Holy Codex of Blood gave her the opportunity to "peek into the future"!

With this thought in mind, Charlotte took out the "prophetic" letter from her bosom.

Her consciousness was connected to the Holy Book of Blood. Using the letter as a medium, Charlotte manipulated the divine power and, with the help of divination, performed the mythical blood magic of the vampire race [Vision of the Future].

The Holy Book of Blood shone brightly, and the crimson power of blood transformed into a high-hanging blood moon. Boundless pressure continued to rise above Charlotte.

The scarlet divine power covered the letter, and a wonderful perception was bestowed on Charlotte's heart.

Her consciousness instantly rose and flew, as if she had traveled through time and space, and in the dark, Charlotte "saw" a blurry picture.

The tall and solemn sun altar, and the elves prostrating themselves in prayer with fanatical expressions.

And outside the altar, there are the weathered, collapsed ancient temples and the city ruins covered with dense vegetation.

Looking at the ancient buildings and the vegetation that was so different from that on the continent of Miriam, Charlotte suddenly understood.

The scene in the "prophecy" is the Western Continent.
