Hearing Velets words, Soshyan nodded.
“I think so too.”
However, since the information here is not perfectly organized and categorized, there is only a vague time indication, so the three of them can only search one by one. .
The other three rooms are smaller than the main hall, but they are also full of information. Perhaps if the Alexey family continues, these places will continue to expand until some unexpected arrival - such as The family line is completely wiped out, or the planet suffers a devastating disaster.
Fortunately, it seems that neither of these situations will happen for the time being.
About half an hour later.
"Soshiyan, I found it."
It was still Veronica, because she was the most efficient in searching and reading, and at her call , Soshyan and Velez came to the room where she was.
"It turns out that it is hidden here, and your name is there. It should be engraved by your father."
Veronica uses psychic powers to control a book close to Soshyan's fist. A thick golden book, a book like this could not be lifted by a normal person, but there was an open secret compartment on the ground at her feet, which contained a complete set of lifting and unloading equipment.
Soshyan took the book and held it very heavy, enough to crush an adult, but it was no different from an ordinary book in his hand. Then he sat down on the stone platform beside him, Velez and Veronie Kaze came to his side and looked at the contents of the book curiously.
As Veronica said, this is a genealogy, using a tree diagram to record the name of each member of the Alexei family, but due to the large number of people, the tree diagram has to be page by page Separated, Soshyan must use his memory to look back.
He looked at the last page first. Sure enough, his name was engraved under his father. Then he looked up. At the end of the page was an ancestor named Dentel.
So he turned back, but there was no name of the ancestor on this page, which meant that this page represented a "broken" branch.
Soshiyan continued to scroll up and saw Danter appearing at the bottom. He had a brother and a sister. Obviously the broken line was the descendant of his brother, so he continued to trace up. .
".Then it is"
All the way to the first page, Soshyan's finger followed the line and finally stopped on a name.
“Dunan.”
Soshiyang recalled that Elena had said that Kailuo’s eldest son was called Dunan and his second son was called Yiri, which means that he The line comes from Kailuo's eldest son, and he just noticed that the only other branch in the family besides him is his cousin's line, which is actually from the Yiri line. The relationship between the two families is actually different. They were so far away, and Soshyan couldn't figure out why they became close relatives again. This was not shown in the genealogy.
“Strange.”
Soshyan told his problem. After Velez thought for a while, he whispered a few words in his ear. Soshyan's eyes froze after hearing this.
“.Is this so?”
“Well, I just noticed that maybe you are focusing on the name of your father’s line. In fact, your mother is also on the family tree, but that one You quickly skipped the page. This represents a situation. A man from your mother's line may have inherited the title and family name of someone from your father's line, causing a distant relative to become a close relative. But your mother's He and his father fell in love again and got married, which led to this strange result: cousins became cousins. "This kind of marriage may also have the idea of preserving the family lineage."
Veronica on the side also chimed in:
"After all, your family's bloodline is in jeopardy."
Soshiyang sighed softly. "I left too early. I almost never got to know these family secrets. These things have passed. The important thing is that now we have to find the records that Dunan's ancestors may have left. My father may also find But he probably didn’t find it.”
The three of them started looking again, but with a specific target, they were able to quickly lock the area based on time, but even so, faced with the overwhelming number of people. Because there was no signature on the cover, the records could only be found one by one
However, it was Veronica who discovered the clues first.
"Hey, hey, come here!"
Soshyan and Velez came to her again.
"What did you find?"
"Look."
Veronica pointed to a book that was stuffed at the bottom of the bookcase, right and innermost A dim booklet, Soshyan tried hard to bend down to see it clearly, but he was too tall, and the thing seemed to be shrouded in a layer of shadow, not even illuminated by light, making it easy to ignore.
"This is an effect that only shadow beast skin products can have. It can form a kind of shielding energy, but this beast has become extinct long ago."
As she spoke, Veronica raised her fingers. , a notebook with a dark cover about a finger thick flew out.
“The point is this.”
Veronica held the notebook that looked as smooth as new and pointed to the lower right corner of the cover. If she didn’t look very carefully, Soshiyang There was a tiny symbol, barely visible, but he didn't recognize it.
“What is this?”
"It is a kind of rune language, which is usually used by ancient priests to inscribe on utensils. Therefore, it is often very concise. One or two symbols can represent a paragraph."
Speaking, Veronica Give the notebook to Soshyan.
"This symbol symbolizes the eternal love dedicated to me."
"Huh?"
Sushyan suddenly had a strange premonition. He opened the page of the book, But it was a kind of Gothic writing that he was not familiar with. Fortunately, he could still understand it. After reading it for a while, Velez said:
"Old Terran, the predecessor of High Gothic."
"I should be able to understand the content after seeing it."
Soshiyan then read the first page carefully. The content is not complicated either. This notebook was a gift Dunan received when he turned 19 and became an official combatant. The gift was given by a person named Seishshet, who should be a woman.
After that, he flipped through it again. Most of the records in it were important battles he had experienced. As the son of Kailo, Dunan was also very brave and good at fighting, and inherited the family's hatred of the greenskins. The wanderers at that time were also influenced by the greenskins. Due to the threat of Pi, Dunan often took the lead, charging into the enemy formation and looking for opportunities to challenge the opponent's leader. This caused him to suffer near-fatal injuries many times. Fortunately, he managed to survive every time.
Soshyan noticed that every time Dunan wrote that he was seriously injured, he would mention Seshshet's name. Either the other person would blame him, or the other person would cry because of him.
Sure enough, at the age of 24, Dunan proposed to Seshshet. The two were indeed a couple, but what Veronica said before made Soshyan's uneasiness escalate until he saw this. Paragraph -
"My father was not surprised that I decided to marry Seishshet, although he sometimes joked that there was an age difference of more than 500 years between us, and even I Seshshet hugged me when I was a baby, but this does not affect my love for her. Maybe my life will be much shorter than hers, but I think I may not live to be old and frail. I think I am very lucky to live past 60 years old.”
Seeing the situation here, it is already obvious that this Seshshet is an Eldar.
