Chapter 2001: Chapter 1822: Holy Grail
Song Yun’s eyes turned, and he thought to himself, "Ice Crystal Holy Grail, what kind of thing is that?"
"Xiao’er, you actually eavesdropped on their meeting, you’ve got some nerves."
Emily closed the door and pulled Nie Wushuang into the room.
Only now did Song Yun clearly see Emily’s face. A Western face, not as beautiful as Nie Wushuang’s, but she could still definitely be called a beauty.
Besides, Emily’s figure was quite explosive. Right now she was wearing pajamas, faintly revealing her curves, wrapped in a hazy, seductive charm.
However, before Song Yun could properly enjoy the view, Nie Wushuang and Emily had already walked over and sat down by the side.
Nie Wushuang said with a squinting smile, "Sister Emily, you mustn’t tell Grandpa Inneye about this, otherwise he’ll definitely punish me."
Emily said, "That’s for sure. Grandpa Inneye might be kind and gentle, but this meeting was a very important secret. If he knew you eavesdropped, he’d harden his heart and punish you."
As she spoke, Emily still couldn’t hide the curiosity in her heart and asked, "Hurry and tell me, what was their meeting about?"
Nie Wushuang lowered her voice and said mysteriously, "They’re planning to organize a group and head to Sha Country’s Komi Primitive Forest to search for the Ice Crystal Holy Grail."
Emily asked, "What is the Ice Crystal Holy Grail?"
Nie Wushuang said, "They didn’t explain clearly either, but from what I heard, it should be something very ancient. All of them took it extremely seriously."
"So how did their talks go?"
"There’s no result yet. There’s only one Ice Crystal Holy Grail, but it’s a three-way cooperation. Who the grail belongs to in the end is a problem. From the current situation, this negotiation is very likely to break up on bad terms."
"Then doesn’t that mean the Dark Holy See and the Medegu Family will end up fighting Wolf Castle for the Ice Crystal Holy Grail?"
"They probably will. Otherwise, who would the Ice Crystal Holy Grail go to? So everyone can only fight for themselves."
"What exactly does that thing do, why is everyone taking it so seriously?"
"For that question, you’d have to ask Grandpa Inneye. He’s the one who knows."
"Ask him? Isn’t that just asking for a scolding?"
"Heh heh, I got a book from Grandpa Inneye that records things about the Ice Crystal Holy Grail."
"You’re something, Xiao’er, still keeping me in suspense. Hurry and show me the book."
"Alright, but you can’t tell anyone. Tomorrow morning I still have to quietly put this book back in Grandpa Inneye’s study."
The two stopped talking. Nie Wushuang stood up and walked to the wardrobe, opened it, and began rummaging inside.
Hearing this, Song Yun was secretly overjoyed.
By sheer accident, he had stumbled upon such useful information.
So this meeting wasn’t about discussing the Medegu Family’s return to Europe, but about three forces cooperating to search for an item.
But from the looks of it, the cooperation would probably fall apart in the end.
"Sister Emily, look, this book records the Ice Crystal Holy Grail."
Nie Wushuang took out an ancient-looking, yellowed book from the wardrobe, opened it as she walked back over.
Song Yun couldn’t see the contents of the book, he could only hear the rustling sound of pages being turned.
Then, Emily’s surprised voice came from above his head: "The book says that the Ice Crystal Holy Grail can turn decay into marvels, alter bloodlines, grant power, and directly raise an ordinary person to Marquis."
In the Western power system, the basic ranks were Baron, Viscount, Earl, Marquis, Duke.
Marquis was roughly equivalent to SSS level.
And SSS level, no matter where, was extremely rare.
An item that could raise an ordinary person straight to SSS level definitely deserved to be called a divine artifact.
If it were used on special races like Werewolves or the Blood Clan, the effect it could achieve might be even stronger.
Emily continued, "In the entire Wolf Castle Alliance, there are only a few Marquises. If we could add one more, it would be immensely significant."
Nie Wushuang said, "If the Medegu Family gets it, they’ll have three Marquises. By then they’ll have the power to unify the Blood Clan. If they integrate all the Blood Clan’s power, judging from the Medegu Family’s style of doing things, they will definitely launch a war. When that happens, the whole of Europe will not be peaceful."
Emily said, "The Dark Holy See are a bunch of villains too. They kill people like flies, slaughter the innocent. Right now, with Wolf Castle standing toe-to-toe with them, and the Medegu Family in America watching them like a tiger, only then do they not dare to act recklessly. But if they gain another Marquis, and then suppress Wolf Castle in strength, they’ll have no scruples. That would definitely be a catastrophe for humankind."
Nie Wushuang said, "So, Wolf Castle getting the Ice Crystal Holy Grail is the most suitable outcome."
"I think so too," Emily agreed.
Nie Wushuang said, "Since that’s the case, I think I should do my part and do something for Grandpa Inneye."
Emily hurriedly said, "Xiao’er, you’re not thinking of going to the Komi Primitive Forest to search for the Ice Crystal Holy Grail, are you?"
"Heh heh."
Nie Wushuang let out a mysterious laugh.
Then Song Yun heard the sound of paper being unfolded, as if Nie Wushuang had taken out a sheet of paper.
Nie Wushuang said, "Sister Emily, look, this is the map I copied from Grandpa Inneye’s study. As long as we have this map, we can find the Ice Crystal Holy Grail."
"Xiao’er, don’t act recklessly. The Ice Crystal Holy Grail isn’t something you can get so easily. Think about it carefully: Wolf Castle, the Medegu Family, the Dark Holy See—aren’t they all powerful? Yet even they have to hold three-way negotiations, wanting to cooperate to search for the Ice Crystal Holy Grail. That shows this matter is very difficult, and very dangerous."
Emily was very rational, trying to persuade Nie Wushuang.
