Volume 3 The Song of the Dragon and the Wind Chapter 66 Dark Entanglement (3)
"Look, the moon is gone......"
The masked man turned into a flock of crows as he whispered.
As for the masked man's matter, Glori didn't want to pay attention to it yet.
At this moment, Glori saw that the sky in Moonlight Town was obscured again. By the time the crow vanished, the sun had already risen. He couldn't watch the town burn in the fire, let alone the people wailing. Although he knew that the pain in his right abdomen was a constant reminder that too much consumption would cause the magic in his body to contain the curse to lose its effect, he didn't want to stop there.
"I have to help the people here. β
Hearing Glori say this, the masked woman reached out to Aina.
"You give her to me, and I'll take care of it for you. β
Sensing that the woman's voice had changed, Glori grabbed Aina's hand tightly, coughed, looked up at the woman and shook her head: "I can't believe you, you're not human." β
"What if it's not human, in this world, even if it's a human standing in front of you who has just helped you, can you trust him completely?"
The woman chuckled softly and crouched down, then held out her hands. Aina had no choice but to look at Glori.
Glori was silent. He couldn't see the woman's expression, so he could only make eye contact with the woman, and then let go of Aina's hand, loosening the aching body, and then tensing his nerves again. With a swing of his sword, he slashed out a northward path of windβa north-south laneway. Perhaps, this is the last time he will use his magic in Moonshine, he thought to himself.
"You should rein in your strength. I can easily handle this trouble," the woman reminded, "and, Mr. Carlos, you ought to be respectful. You haven't asked the name of the benefactor in front of you. β
She actually used the word "benefactor". However, she was not my compatriot at all, or rather not a human being. Glori said this to himself in his heart, but not sarcastically, but surprised.
"I'm sorry, may I ask who you are?"
With a swing of his sword in one hand, Glori knocked down the knight on the west wall, then turned and pushed the knight on the east wall into the gutter, and asked.
"You can call me Pod for the time being, but it's better to forget, it's all fate anyway. You...... What do you think of the Remnant Moon Clan?"
Without thinking, Pod directly said the Remnant Moon Clan.
Obviously, this is not the real name. In the Far East, this is the name of Seocho. It bears one pod per day in the first half of the month and one pod per day in the second half of the month. If there is one less day in the month, then the last leaf will only wither and not fall. What if in the fallen kingdom of Alex......?
This grass represents harmony with nature. However, this did not surprise Glori. The woman said that the Remnant Moon Clan was the thing that surprised Glori, and she didn't shy away from it? Glori couldn't help but take a breath. He knew exactly what Pod meant when she mentioned the Remnant Moon Clan, and she was telling herself that she was a Remnant Moon Clan. But she was the complete opposite of those murderers of the Remnant Moon Clan, without a single dark tone, and without the slightest hint of bloodthirstiness.
"The Remnant Moon Clan, do you mean an accomplice of the Order Clan, or the snake lizard Gud of the Misty Swamp?"
Glori was as easy as talking to a human who was no different from himself.
β...... As you said, even fragile humans are not exactly good or evil. Sometimes, I lament for the King of the Withering Moon that he mistrusted Kyle. However, the Waning Moon King also deserves it! he is an accomplice of the Order King!" Glori added.
"The King of the Wading Moon...... It wasn't supposed to be like that. β
Pod shook his head and sighed. She took two steps forward and embraced Aina in her arms, like a loving person, but with a little playfulness, and made a turn with her green skirt raised. Then, with her feet touching the wet, green shoots that suddenly emerged from the gravel floor, she disappeared with Aina into the "flash" magic, following in Glori's footsteps.
Even though Glori's magic was already weak, he still felt the fluctuations of the pod's magic when she cast her magicβa magic that was nothing but the vibrancy of a grassland, and this magic was so agile and pure in this woman.
Who the hell is she? Why is the magic she using so old?Sighing and wondering, Glori could hear her voice, but he couldn't see her and Aina's figures. He knew that they were near him, sometimes in front of him, sometimes behind him, like elves in the wilderness.
Elves?The Wanyue Clan are not mythical elves, they don't transform, and they are not little fairies who fulfill their wishes. Wait, I don't have the time to think about that. Glori ran a few steps forward until he reached the end of the Wind Path. He found that there was still a long way to go!
At least, the Terran brick and stone houses here were familiar to Glori, and he had the feeling that he was on his way home, but it was too miserable.
Frowning, Glori paused and looked east and west. So, that's why the sound of arrows galloping from here came to the street. But what about the owner of the arrows? From the shouts of the believers, I knew that she was a woman. Where is she going? It's not a safe place.
Thinking of this, Glori looked around. Then he walked along the gravel road to the east side of the street. After that, he stopped in front of a ruined flower shop.
Blue butterfly, purple butterfly...... There are also wisteria, roses, ...... On the road to light and freedom, is it indispensable to miss and love?
That's right, a beautiful world can't lack thoughts and love. Then Glori took his eyes off the ledge, stooping down to pull out the tail arrow under the ledge.
What about the tail of the arrow? How could it not be? Glori lifted the broken door panel from his feet and stood on the west side of the doorway. After some searching, he still didn't find it, as if he had disappeared out of thin air. Could it be that the bloody arrow was shot at the believer lying here, so the tail of the arrow was left on the believer's body?
So, Glori took his sword in his left hand and touched the cross-section of the arrow with his right index finger - just as Glory thought, the broken arrow had a smooth face and spiky edges, and it was still severed!
Anyway, it's a vine arrow? yes, that's what the two believers are shouting. Glori examined the arrow closely, only to wipe his sweat and keep it close to his nose. How can it be mixed with a smell of lilies? This fresh and elegant fragrance is really memorable.
However, time did not allow Glorido to stay, so he simply glanced again at the flowers on the windowsill. There are no lilies here at all, and that's the smell of this arrow, which may have something to do with its owner. The taste reminds me of a person who likes to cook lily soup.
As a result, the corners of Glorry's mouth could not help but rise. However, after a while, his smile disappeared. Because after rubbing his eyes, he saw the people lying on the corners of the street and the houses in flames. In this way, the good memories of the past are overshadowed by the bleak scene in front of them. He couldn't help but grit his teeth, turning the smile that raised the corners of his mouth into a look of resentment.
"Wait! I'm tired, what did I just say? I need to help the people here!"
"yes, you have to help the people here!"
Pod sighed, and waved her right hand in disappointment, causing a glimmer of magical light like a moon to flicker. Then, she and Aina emerge from the shadow magic.
"Look, what do you look like now, a guy who is not only soft-hearted but drags a tired body...... What more do you want? Just now, with the sword in both hands, you knocked down two knights in quick succession! Isn't that enough? You knock them down, but you don't want their lives. They're bad guys, I want to complain!"
Listening to the pods, this made Glori know that she was a kind woman with a righteous heart. In fact, there was no malice in her eyes. So, just like that, she really won't hurt me and Aina, but how can she be at ease?
As for the power of nature, the waning moon with magic is generally there, and as for the power of the moon god, this magic power was given by the moon god to the waning moon clan, but that was in the era of chaos that was even older than the age of the gods! Soon after entering the age of the gods, the moon god no longer guarded the waning moon clan, and it was impossible to continue to give the power of the moon god to the waning moon clan.
Thinking back to the magic that Pod possessed, the power of the moon god in her body was as pure and even as old as the power of nature, which caught Glori's attention. Glori tried to make his mind clear. Could it be that this woman is not an ordinary remnant of the Moon Clan?
Speaking of the Wanyue Clan, they were originally born under the luster of the moon god, and they were still on the Wanyue Island. If it's a fish, it's a fish-headed man, if it's a cursed or plagued place, it's a scary-looking thing, and if it's a vegetative tree, then it's lucky, it's the same appearance as the Terrans.
And what about pods? She should be...... But how is this possible? The Moon God has abandoned the Wanyue Clan for a long time, how could there be a voice that sounds so young that the Wanyue Clan was born? She is roughly the same as Elris. Iris is less than a year younger than Zoe, exactly twenty years old, two months and a few days, so the pod is only about twenty?
Don't think about it so much, there's a little Glori knows. If you want to obtain the power of the gods, you must either inherit it, steal it, or be directly given by the gods. He was about to continue thinking when he was interrupted by the voice from the abyss.
"Look, what are you like now? You still want to help the people here? Now, not only do you have no physical strength, but you also lack magical energy. Do you want to lie here after all your exhaustion, or are you going to let the beautiful woman in front of you drag you out of this unsafe place?"
Suddenly, Glori's weight leaned forward. As he was about to fall, he forcibly stuck his sword into the ground. With a hint of magic, he spoke.
"Wait, that looming strange magic has reappeared! β
