Chapter 392: The Lost City II
"Amri, why did you come here, I've been looking for you for a long time. β
Standing at the city gate, the middle-aged man who ran from a distance took Adier's hand, and then he breathed a sigh of relief, and turned to look at the soldiers on the side: "Get out of the way!"
At this moment, the anxious and panicked expression on his face faded, and was replaced by a full majesty, which made Adil look a little sideways.
"It turned out to be the child of Senge's sacrifice. The vine-armored soldiers guarding the city looked grim and bowed their heads to Adil, as if to apologize.
"Alright, Amri, let's go inside. β
Holding Adier's hand, Senge put a smile on his face, and then led Adil forward.
Patches of buildings are constantly passing in front of him, and the layout and shape of most of them are somewhat familiar to Adiel.
"It's exactly the same as the ruins before. β
Carefully observing the roads and buildings around him, the thought flashed silently through Adiel's heart.
I don't know why, when I arrived here, a sense of familiarity from the heart was constantly emerging, and it was clear that there were unfamiliar scenery all around, but he had a strange sense of familiarity, as if he had lived here.
Feeling this, Adiel's face was a little ugly: "Even I can't detect that something is wrong, this illusion..."
On the way to walk, he was also checking the scenery around him in his own way.
But whether it was his powerful spiritual power or the chip that existed in the depths of his soul, he didn't find the slightest abnormality at this time, as if all this was true.
"We're in place. Beside him, Senge's distinctively hoarse voice rang out.
Holding Adil by the hand, he walked to an old manor, looked at the manor overgrown with weeds in front of him and smiled happily: "Finally home..."
He raised his head and looked at the old manor in front of him, which seemed to have been taken care of for a long time, and his face looked a little unfavorable, as if he remembered something from the past.
Standing beside him, looking at the dilapidated and primitive manor in front of him, Adil was stunned.
It seems that something critical has been encountered, and at this moment, an unusual sense of familiarity comes to mind, accompanied by fragments of memory.
It was as if he had been reborn again, and a large number of memories inexplicably surfaced in his heart.
Following these memories, he subconsciously walked to the door of the manor and looked at a black wooden board in front of the gate of the manor.
On the black wooden board, there were traces carved on it, and in the center of it, there were also some handwriting, written in a strange but familiar script of Adiel.
"Happy birthday to you, Amri Yara. β
Looking at the handwriting carved on the wooden board, an inexplicable sense of familiarity came from his heart, which made him subconsciously read this line.
"Yara..." Looking at the surname after the first name, Adil looked sideways: "It's exactly the same as the surname of my body." β
"Amurri, stop playing. A rough palm was placed on top of Adiel's head.
On the side, looking at Adiel, Senge kept a smile on his face: "It's time for us to go in." β
"Good. Turning around slightly, he took a deep look at Senge, and Adil remained silent on the surface, just nodding silently.
With a soft sound, the wooden door quickly opened, and the two of them slowly walked inside.
It was noon, and in the sky, the golden sun was shining all around, spreading wisps of pale golden sunlight down on the black earth.
And around, next to an old house that looks quite large, weeds stubbornly survive, covering the surrounding mud.
These scenery should be very unfamiliar to Adiel, but at this time, it seemed to him that there was an unusually familiar feeling.
Even, at this moment, Adil had a feeling in his heart.
He seems to have grown up here, everything around him, there are no secrets to him, even if he walks with his eyes closed, he can know where he is, and he will not have the slightest fear and anxiety.
This feeling should have been very good, but at this time, Adil only felt a cold feeling in his heart.
"Did it affect my memories and feelings?"
The thought crossed him, and he was drawn to something outside.
WangΒ·Β·Β·
A low hissing sound came from outside.
Under the gaze of Adiel, outside the open wooden door of the manor, a black earth dog with fluffy hair and bones ran in from outside, standing directly on the threshold and barking loudly, as if calling for something.
"Wild dogs?"
Listening to the barking of the dog outside the door, Adil muttered to himself in his heart, and then his body subconsciously got up and walked towards the thin black earth dog.
"Du..."
Gently walked to the threshold, looked at the black earth dog standing in front of him, and followed the feeling in his heart, Adil slowly said a name.
As the words fell, the dog in front of him barked again, lowered his head slightly, and touched Adiel's hand, as if expressing his emotions.
"Hurt again. β
Gently touching the dog's head, Adil keenly saw a few scars on it, as well as a trace of blood that had not yet dried up.
"Come with me. Rising from where he was, following the reaction in his heart, Adil walked to his room, found some bones and flesh from it, and put them directly outside.
It seemed to have become a habit, and after seeing the bones piled up outside the door, the black dog stopped barking, but squatted quietly, drinking clean water and nibbling on the bones and minced meat.
Quietly stroking the hair on the black dog's body, feeling this subconscious action, Adil frowned while also thinking about the current situation.
"The legendary lost city cannot be found by ordinary people, only the former owner of the city, or the dying can enter it. β
Thinking of this, Adil lowered his head and thought: "This legend should be true, but when Leon and I came in, we didn't feel any obstacles, and we entered this place smoothly. β
"There is no obstacle, which means that Lyon and I are both people who meet the entry criteria... That is, the former owner of the city..."
Sitting silently in place, thinking about the information about the Lost City in his mind, the chill in Adiel's eyes grew thicker.
His body was still very healthy, not only was he only twelve years old now, but he also had no pain on his body, and no matter how he looked at it, he did not meet the standards of a dying person.
Then the only one that meets the requirements is undoubtedly the other.
"The curse of the past will spread along the bloodline..." Inexplicably, Adil suddenly remembered this sentence in his heart.
When he first read this sentence, he was still a little confused, but now, after entering the real place, he probably knew what was going on.
"Amuri Yara, Sim Yara, and Gerson and Kolar look alike. β
Thinking about the clues he knew, Adil pondered: "The former owner of this city, literally, should be the former inhabitants of this city. β
"Only the city's former owners will be allowed to enter, and this condition, perhaps, refers to the bloodline. β
He slowly raised his head: "Only the descendants of the residents of this city can follow the traction of the bloodline and enter the city. β
"And Leon and I should meet this condition. β
This is only a rough inference, but at the moment, it seems that it is not unlikely.
It's easy to test this inference, just go to another entrant.
It can be said that it is a coincidence that the conditions are met once, but if it is done twice in a row, then the accuracy of the inference is undoubtedly improved a lot.
"Lyon's surname, Calradis..."
Thoughts flashed through his mind, and he touched the black dog's injured forehead, then stood up and walked towards the house.
In the old house, Senge was busy inside, rummaging through the cabinets from time to time, and tidying up some dusty chores.
"Calradis, a surname that is rare locally, should have lived in Creek Lane, north of the city. β
Inside the house, listening to Adiel's question, Senge was a little surprised: "What are you asking for?"
I don't know if it's an illusion, at the moment when Adil asked, the expression on his face seemed to change slightly, and his eyes became much more indifferent.
The change is very subtle and disappears completely in the next moment, making it difficult to detect under normal circumstances.
Seeing these changes silently, Adil frowned secretly, but smiled calmly on the surface: "I undoubtedly heard this surname before, so I came to ask, I didn't expect it to really be..."
"No! you're lying!" a strong, hoarse voice suffocated Adiel's words.
At this moment, Senge's face changed greatly, the originally gentle expression on his face instantly brought a strong resentment and hatred, and a originally black eye emitted a strange light, staring firmly at Adil in front of him, as if looking at his own life and death enemy.
A huge pressure came from front of him, with a faint sense of danger.
Feeling this, Adil frowned secretly, his eyes looked at Senge in front of him, and the vigilance in his heart suddenly reached its peak.
The next moment, as if he realized his gaffe, the strange expression on Senge's face disappeared in an instant, the resentment and hatred on his original face disappeared in an instant, only a gentle face remained, and a pair of black eyes did not look as weird as before.
"Be careful on the road. β
As if he knew what Adil was going to do, Senge said this lightly, then turned around and went to tidy up the things in the house.
Behind him, looking at Senge's busy back, Adil watched quietly for a long time before turning to leave.
"The feeling just now is a little similar to the curse I encountered before, but it's a little different..."
Walking quietly on the road, thinking about the reaction of that moment just now, Adil frowned: "It was normal before, why did it suddenly break out at this time?"
