Chapter 904: The Stars (Part II)
Sesyana brought back Mon'an, much to everyone's surprise. Rosa felt that the expressions of the two men were a little strange, but she didn't ask much.
She was in a hurry to leave. The period of waiting made her feel a sense of eagerness that she didn't have...... It was as if some danger was following them like a shadow.
Don't look back, Scott said. Along the way, Rosa couldn't help but turn back more than once, the temple above the wilderness was as quiet as being forgotten, and it was hardly worth mentioning compared to the ruins of the ruined and still magnificent ruins of the Far North Light, but it reminded Rosa of the giant beasts of the sea in the stories her father told her, only an inconspicuous point appeared on the surface of the water, but there were hideous maws under the surface of the water, which could devour the sun and the moon once opened.
They set out in the middle of the moon and headed north until sunset on another day, with only two short rests. At the end of summer, the animals that should have been running all over the mountains disappeared, and they could not even hunt any prey, which gave rise to even greater uneasiness. There was no need for Rosa to urge them anymore, everyone tried their best and just wanted to stay away as soon as possible.
The trails are rugged, and even if you no longer have to sneak around, the day is exhausting. When night fell again, the pine forests of Kasdan were already in sight, and the moonlight sprinkled on the snow-capped mountain tops farther away, reflecting a glimmer of light in the sky, but they all stopped at one moment as if they were frozen.
Something caught up. There was no sound, no image, and the quiet air of the night suddenly turned into a monstrous wave of the sea, swept over with a raging and violent sweep, and there was nowhere to escape.
They could not see, nor could they know, that such a great wave did not come for them. Centered on the temple that towered over the wilderness, an invisible force erupted, sweeping across the basin and over the surrounding peaks. It had no intention of destroying, but the power was too great to easily crush everything that was in its essence, devouring them completely.
At that moment, in the Sidney Basin and the surrounding mountains, all the wandering souls, all the lives that had no time to escape, ceased to exist in an instant. The silvertooth dwarves uneasily stopped beating in the deep pits, and they could still feel the trembling of the world they knew before it toppled under the last protection of Anduhe, and Sergio awoke with tears streaming down his face on the distant seashore, a part of his soul cut off forever, his rhizome severed, and there was no more place to live but the fragile human body.
A sharp chirp gradually sounded in his ears, as if the terrible roar of countless ghosts cut through the soul one by one. The indescribable despair and fear was enough to crush before it was devoured.
“...... Run!"
Rosa squeezed a hoarse roar out of her throat, and took steps with all her might, dragging the man beside her who had fallen softly.
She didn't really know if it worked...... Can they run away? Where can they run? Maybe hell has been opened, maybe the whole world will be destroyed at this moment, all the struggles are in vain.
But the people of the Latus family will never sit still.
Dragging their stiff legs, they stumbled forward. The only one who still has the strength and guts to turn back is Cesyana.
The elf turned back as a ray of light shot straight into the sky from the wilderness. The light was so bright that lightning tore through the night sky, illuminating the whole world as if it were day, but not as fleeting as lightning.
It was a pillar of light. Even when obscured by the mountain peaks, Sesyana could guess where the light was coming from. He allowed the overly dazzling white light to burn under the elf's sensitive eyes, and refused to turn his head away, until the light suddenly disappeared, and the light and mist scattered in the sky were like shattered stars, and the four fields were empty, but there was a call that had not sounded for thousands of years, coming from another world.
Sesyana closed her eyes and lowered her head, looking like a praying statue in the Temple of the Sun above the North's Light. His vision was blurred, but the elves always looked up to the stars, not missing the little extra sparkle between the stars.
“...... What the hell is going on?"
Rosa brushed away her short sweat-soaked hair on her forehead, shocked.
The terrible screams had vanished when the light had lit up, and the dull night had regained its tranquility when the light had vanished. When she came to her senses, the earth did not crack, nor did the sky break...... It seems that everything just now has never happened.
Sesyana looked back at her, unsure of how to answer—it would be difficult for a human without faith to comprehend his complex emotions at the moment, even Rosa.
New gods were born in the Sea of Nothingness. His light has been lit, and his name is not yet known.
.
"Look. ”
Nigel Lowe stretched out his hand to the sky, and with a calm and even unhappy face, he successfully concealed the turmoil in his heart.
He knew that there would be this day, he knew that there would be this moment, but he still felt dizzy in shock to the extreme.
It's real—he thought.
Next to him, Ethan Croefler crossed his arms, as calm as ever. The Archon of Anktan, who everyone had stayed away, squinted and looked up at the sky, the light that had just burst into the night sky was not very striking when viewed from too far away from the towers of Blackcastle...... But he wasn't blind, he could see what the priest was pointing to — it wasn't something that could be easily reached.
"How do I know that's true. ”
The archon, who had never known how to please the priest in front of him, said lightly, "I am not as religious as my father, but I know a lot of the tricks that priests can play—how do I know that what I am seeing now is not what you want me to see?"
The priest, who was accustomed to unconsciously sneering, was also stunned for a moment before he understood this sentence - is this saying that he has cast an illusion on him?!
Nigel's face darkened, and he choked out for a moment.
The exclamations of the people were heard in the night wind, and gradually they became together, and more lights were lit up in the city of Llewellyn, and even the courtyard of the Black Castle began to run uneasily...... It was the person who had also seen the light in the distance just now who finally reacted.
The priest simply replaced the arm of the finger with the arm of the finger to the earth.
“...... All right. "That's probably true." ”
"And that's just the beginning. Nigel held back his anger and completed his mission, "The temple in the Sidney Basin is uninhabited, but not the next place...... Your Excellency, you have to go back to Balach. ”
