outside encounter(1/3)
Alice walked from the narrow passage to the exit. The strong sunlight outside made her squint her eyes. She reached out to cover her forehead. The sunlight passed through her white arms. The skin was almost transparent, and the edges reflected the reddish color of blood.
Two military men in black trench coats walked up to each other. While gently sweeping away the fallen leaves on their shoulders, they only asked: "Miss Alice?"
Alice watched the golden leaves fall, and then she was slightly startled. She suddenly realized that autumn was coming quietly at this time. A kind of emotion arose in her heart, and everything seemed like a world away.
She raised her head and stared at the sky. It was the first sunny day after the storm. The blue sky of Fenris curved into an arc at the end of her field of vision, clean and bright, with only light clouds floating in it.
She looked away, her eyes spotless, and she just nodded very calmly.
The military personnel replied politely: "Then please cooperate with us and hand over your magic furnace, weapons, star material and communication equipment to us."
Alice didn't resist or explain, she just followed her words and watched her things being taken away one by one. She silently thought that maybe she was really a sinner, because if it weren't for herself, how could there be someone else?
So many people lost their lives, and as for Mr. Ed, he would not suffer from this...
The military man raised his head and suddenly saw the girl's face as pale as paper, and he burst into tears.
They were stunned for a moment, looked at each other, and then said comforting words: "Miss Alice, please don't worry, this is just to assist in the investigation. If you are really coerced by Toragotos, we will prove your innocence."
The girl was in tears, so what if she could prove her innocence with just a smile? Can those wrong things be undone by this?
Under the shadow of the privet tree, Alyssa clasped her hands and watched helplessly as her sister got on the carriage. The military knights escorted the carriage slowly away. She couldn't help but subconsciously take a step forward. But Sophie was holding on behind.
He stopped her and said softly: "Don't worry, the military will ensure her safety."
The princess of Silver Vislan looked at her: "On the contrary, it's you. Toragotos might take revenge. During this period of time, we will protect your safety."
"Why you, I have nothing to do with Silver Vislan."
"It's a commission from the military," Sophie sighed and replied, "But that's not all. It can also be regarded as my promise to Ed."
Alyssa turned around suddenly and asked: "Sophie, Mr. Ed, he...?"
Sophie just shook her head and silently looked towards the horizon. "Let's wait for the news from the Star Gate." After a while, she said softly.
Alyssa bit her lips and fell silent.
In the woods not far away, a red-haired girl walked out with a halberd in her hand. She looked at Sophie, and the two looked at each other, as if they had been separated by a long time. Qian did not speak, but Sophie
I already understood what the girl meant from her apologetic eyes.
They suffered heavy losses.
Seven people remain under the darkness forever, including her deputy, Dianmo Ranqingzhu, who was also seriously injured. Two of the three priests will not be able to participate in subsequent activities within a month. After this battle, the team is afraid that
It's time to split up and reorganize.
But no matter what, one person fulfilled his promise, brought them out, and saved everyone here.
except himself
She already knew everything from the videos taken by those people at that time. The flash of light on the altar and the obelisk slowly sinking into the ground took away the calm and fearless young face, but this
This scene may forever become a monument, recorded in the hearts of everyone who experienced it.
After that incident, the people of Cloud Port knocked down the spire of Toragotos. Although it was broken once during the earthquake, people bulldozed the remaining parts. The newly appointed governor of the kingdom has decided to go there.
A statue was erected on the original site.
That statue must have a beautiful silver mask, a long windbreaker, a childish half face, and his clockwork goblins, those fire djinn, have now become Kaolin
—The symbol of Ithurian courage.
As for the demise of the Blood Oath, it was naturally expected by people.
With the intervention of relevant military and government departments, the club managers were immediately brought under control, but three principal criminals still absconded in fear of crime.
What makes the higher-ups even more outraged is that in Aitaria, one-third of Blood Oath's top executives mysteriously disappeared after the incident. Although the remaining people were under control, most of them were unaware of the incident.
The reason why.
The search and investigation work is still in full swing and has been officially merged with the mysterious disappearance case of the Rainlistener Club.
Although after review, it has been shown that the Blood Oath has little to do with Toragotos' plan, but the truth of the Night Lizard people's plan is revealed. It is also enough for them to drink a pot, and resurrecting an evil god is a serious violation anyway.
"Stargate Declaration".
This is probably the most dramatic scene in Fenris in the past half month. The dark clouds that originally covered the sky quietly dissipated from the heads of the large and small guilds on this island. And the sudden disappearance of Toragotos also happened here.
Too many power vacuums were left in the region.
These large and small guilds and adventure groups that were praised for their heroic performance during this disaster actively launched expansion activities after that.
Listener to the Rain is one of them.
The Rainlisteners led by Grant were ultimately proven to have nothing to do with this conspiracy and did not participate in Toragotos' plan. And these people who were abandoned by the original guild actually fell apart in the Blood Oath in the end.
In the meantime, there was a glimmer of hope.
Although they were no longer the original Rain Listeners, Grant officially announced that the new Rain Listeners would be a free guild at the guild's re-establishment ceremony half a month later.
The Tempest Brigade was naturally preserved as a result.
It's just that they lost too much in this disaster. After leaving a letter of resignation, Gubai Zhino also officially left Listening to the Rain. He seemed to have found something lost in the young man, prompting him to officially leave.
Embark on a journey to find everything you have lost.
He has almost retired, and perhaps there is not much time left for him.
And the twin sisters naturally left the guild, not only of their own volition, but because of what Alice did, the Rain Listeners could hardly tolerate their existence. For her sister, Alice could only
Make this choice.
In the darkness, there was a rustling sound.
This underground world was once so noisy that it almost changed the fate of Fenris.
But at this moment, it has returned to peace again. In the conceivable future, because the Dragon Trial has become a thing of the past, this place will be buried again by dust and cobwebs year after year, and no one will set foot there again.
There may be some visitors to ancient times, but their footprints will not leave too many marks on this civilization's ruins. Then time will pass by, and one day, this place will completely turn into gravel and dust.
People can no longer see what they used to be.
The box was sitting on top of the ruins. The beautiful hat had been lost in the chaos of the time. The messy hair looked like withered grass. It had not been tidied up for an unknown number of days. Although he still wore a mask, there were black and white streaks on his chin, as if
A big painted face.
He held his communication crystal and listened to the rustling sound coming from inside: "You really don't plan to return to the Tempest Brigade. I asked Grant and he is still willing to accept you."
What came from the channel was Gu Bai Zhi Ye's voice. He seemed very calm, just like before.
"I plan to wait a little longer," Xiang Xiang smiled, with white teeth that stood out in the dark: "This place is much more exciting than your place. Besides, whether the captain lives or dies, there must be a result." He scratched his head:
"Parker and I are looking for him down here. There is no news from the Star Gate. I have a hunch, you know."
"This is in line with your temperament," Gu Baizhino smiled, listening to the newcomer he brought out with his own hands, calling someone else's captain, but when he thought of the big boy, he had no dissatisfaction in his heart. This was originally his
choice, just
He sighed: "I will not interfere with your choice, Box. You can take the path you want to take, but everyone must be responsible for their own choices."
Gubai Zhiye's words were very serious.
The box also became silent for a rare moment and nodded.
He silently turned off the communicator and looked forward. In the darkness there, he didn't know whether it was the way forward or the future. It was just everything that day, the fragmented island, the dark dragon with wings spread, the battle with the night lizards, and
The flash of light on the altar and the obelisk slowly sinking into the ground were all deeply engraved in his heart.
This is exactly the life he wants.
In the distance, Parker suddenly lifted up a pile of rocks and climbed up from below. In half a month, the image of this Papalar man successfully changed his career from a crossbow shooter and a kitchen wanderer to a coal worker.
Or a chubby coal worker.
He got up, his eyes widened with anger, jumped up and down towards the box and shouted: "Damn it, poor Papalar, you cunning guy, you are lazy again!"
"I didn't." Xiang shook the communication crystal in his hand: "Someone sent me a communication."
"who?"
"you do not know."
"Then you are just lazy!"
The suitcase pulled up his stand-up collar, ignored what the guy said next, and asked, "Did you find anything down there?"
Parker gave a rare sigh and shook his head: "There is nothing down there, it is bottomless, there is no way to go down, there is not even a monster, I hate this place, I will go crazy if I stay here any longer.
"
"It doesn't matter, you don't have to stay here anymore." Box replied.
"What?"
"There's news from Miss Attila. She asked us to go back to Cloud Port first."
"Have you found that guy?" the Papalar man immediately asked in surprise.
Xiang Xiang shook his head: "Tianlan didn't say anything. I don't know. Maybe it's something else. Besides, it's not an option for us to stay in this place all the time."
"It's not just a way," Parker said loudly: "It's not a way at all. Thank God, I can finally leave this hellish place."
Box stood up. Between the stand-up collar and the mask, a pair of eyes of different colors were looking at the little man: "Parker, don't you want to find him?"
