Chapter 497: The Altar of Nolde
The huge, deadwood-like calamity drifted away in front of the eyes of several people, and the body that had turned into powder started from scratch, shattering and decomposing until it became the purest form of magical energy. Ran Wen is small? Say??.? r?anena`com
However, this exaggerated phenomenon in front of her will no longer cause Christine's inner turmoil, because she still wants to live for two more years. So for the sake of herself and her husband, the female guide took the initiative to explain Arnold to prevent him from convulsing due to the sudden acceptance of too much information.
"Let's go...... Xiaoyu's village is impossible to find, and now only a blank space on the map remains. Xia Zhe waited until the calamity was completely gone, then returned to Arvin's side, and said to Christine, "We'll go now, but I may need you to show me the way." ”
"Where?" Facing Xia Zhe, who suddenly changed his momentum, the husband and wife asked subconsciously.
"From here all the way north, to the end of the continent...... Altar of Nolde. Xia Zhe said a very unfamiliar name, which was the name that was told to him by the calamity condensed from the negative emotional body.
The orchid will be taken there to wait for some kind of festival to begin.
"You're not talking about the Forbidden Land of Norde in the North, do you? It was a forbidden place after the rise of mankind, and almost all the fools who wanted to find the treasures left over from the previous era disappeared into that land. When Christine heard the name, all the information about that place instantly came to her mind.
They were once hired to go to the Altar of Nolde, as legend has it that there was a large amount of gold, crystals, and rare treasures that the Blood Heir had prepared to summon demons from the war between humans and the Blood Successor a hundred years ago.
It's just that the husband and wife couple happened to have other tasks to complete at that time, so they didn't catch up with the luxurious expedition team organized by the imperial giant merchants.
However, that was also the last time the husband and wife saw the giant businessman, because the other party's proud powerful expedition team (one person above the limit, four S-class, eleven A-class, fifty-seven B-class, as for C-level and below, it was directly passed) After half a year, the news of the destruction of the whole army came out, and it was another group of explorers who went to try their luck with the news.
The torn corpse of the expedition team, when it was found again, had almost dried up, and although there were certain signs of battle around, it didn't look like a life-and-death struggle at all, and it could only be regarded as a small fight at most.
However, it was such a battle, but the expedition team with the lowest B-level strength couldn't even piece together a whole corpse.
Therefore, when Christine and Arnold heard that Xia Zhe was going to that kind of place, their first reaction was that the other party was going to die.
"You don't want to go, it seems that that place is indeed very dangerous, and even the calamity just now has a feeling that I dare not go there." Xia Zhe thought back to the news that Calamity revealed to him, and found that he may have underestimated the danger of that place, and didn't see the robot husband and wife, all of them had a joking expression.
"It's a forbidden place where no one comes back alive." Christine wanted to emphasize the danger there.
It's just that Xia Zhe doesn't seem to have any intention of changing his mind.
"Since you don't want to go, let's go by ourselves, and we won't get lost by looking at the map...... Alvin, help me prepare an airship, Ada, to buy some necessities, it looks like it's a long trip again. ”
As soon as Xia Zhe's words fell, the female knight came to him with her golden hair, "Lord Xia Zhe, can you go down and buy necessities?" ”
Facing Alvin's constantly shining gaze, Xia Zhe slapped the other party's dumb hair, and said viciously, "Are you still here?" Remember the last time I was in the Duchy of Venice, I asked you to buy supplies? ”
Alwin was reminded by Xia Zhe like this, and in the blink of an eye, he spread his brilliant wings and flew away towards the sky.
After her, Black Rose also nodded at Xia Zhe, and then disappeared into the darkness of the deep forest.
When the husband and wife didn't figure out what the situation was now, only Xia Zhe and the three of them were left on the scene.
For a while, an awkward atmosphere permeated, after all, when they first entered the Desperate Mountain Range, the couple still doubted the authenticity of Xia Zhe's identity.
Just as Arnold wanted to ask Xia Zhe why he had to go to that kind of place, Xia Zhe spoke first, "I have a reason why I have to go there, I know your good intentions, but people from all over the world can not go, but I can't go without it...... Because my friend is there. ”
"Friends?"
"Well, a friend who deserves to help each other. And I have promised the calamity just now, to rescue Youlan, and let the murderer who caused all this pay his share of responsibility. ”
Xia Zhe's words once again complicated the question of the husband and wife, and now they are eager to know, what did Xia Zhe do? Why can he communicate with that kind of human predator without hindrance, why does he seem to know the predecessor of the calamity, why can he let the calamity choose to end himself...... There are too many questions to ask, but for a while, the husband and wife don't know where to start.
"You go back first, I'm waiting for my companions here, and you must have suffered a lot of losses." Xia Zhe looked at the lost backpack of the husband and wife, Xia Zhe wanted to compensate the pair of dedicated guides, "There is a gold medal here, you hold it, this is given to me by Caimmorton." ”
Maybe it's because Caimmorton's name is too few people to call, so the husband and wife didn't react for a while, but when Xia Zhe changed the way he described it, the couple realized what Xia Zhe gave them, "Use it to exchange money or necessary help from any lord in the empire, as for how much it can be exchanged, what kind of help I haven't asked yet, but I think as an emperor, how can I say that this thing can also be exchanged for 1000 gold coins." ”
"Dragon Emperor? His Majesty Kaimmorton?! ”
"Yes, yes, it's him, so don't worry, I'll pay you as a guide, and compensate for the attack you just received." Xia Zhe indifferently threw the palm-sized gold medal to Arnold.
As for why Xia Zhe is so generous, it is because of this kind of gold medal, he still has seven or eight, all of which were handed over to him by the sharp-chin official when he was in Longmian City, saying that if it was not sent to him, Kaimmorton would kill him.
However, Arnold had other ideas, because money was not as important to them as the next thing, and it could even be said that if they could fulfill their wishes, even if they could pour Xia Zhe a lot of money.
Therefore, Arnold returned the gold medal to Xia Zhe, and at the same time, he used the most solemn imperial ceremony to Xia Zhe.
"President Xia Zhe, if you are really fighting for the goal of living with your head held high under the same blue sky, as rumored to be, then we husband and wife have a request that I hope you can consider."
