When his gaze swept over the completely unfamiliar stone roof, over the dozen or so thick stone pillars, and the mottled carved patterns on them, he looked down in surprise and asked Kevin, "What is this place?" I was so stunned by the dream just now that I didn't even react...... Where are we? ”

"This is the underground of the Old Castle of the Roses." Kevin replied, looking up at the dome that had calmed down from the afterglow of the tremors, and guessed, "Something has passed outside." ”

The Old Rose Castle had been buried in the desert for a hundred years, and its strength had been greatly reduced, at least worse than Kevin had thought. Movement on the ground could easily be transmitted through the rough stone floor of the ruins to the dungeon.

The rumbling and thunderous movement just now seemed to be caused by a team of men and horses hurrying through the vicinity. But to cause a tremor in the ground in a wide area, the movement of this group of centaurs is not too small, and it seems to be very urgent.

"Oh yes, we've arrived at the Old Castle of the Roses." Osvid stared at the dome with wary eyes, waited for a moment, and saw that it was no longer moving, then he lowered the claws that were covering Kevin's face, moved the huge body of the wolf, and stepped aside.

Kevin was able to free himself from the weight of the wolf, and he sat up and exhaled twice, feeling relieved.

Osvid's gaze was still wandering in the dungeon, he swept the people all over the ground, his brows furrowed, and the expression on the wolf's face was puzzled and serious: "I remember that we met a part of the advance army in the secret passage, and they died, and their expressions and postures were very strange. Then we came out of the dry well, went to the mirage, caught up with the advance army, and rushed to the old castle of roses...... And then what? ”

He turned his head to look at Kevin, as if trying to remember, but he couldn't remember the missing fragment in his memory: "I realized that I was missing a memory, what did we encounter after we arrived at the Old Castle of Roses?" Do you still have an impression? I think I should have seen something, but I can't remember what it was anyway, but—"

Speaking of this, he was stunned. Because these words sounded all too familiar, they had heard the same thing not long ago when they had met the advance army led by Wood and Nick in front of the dunes.

"Wait—so what Wood saw in the secret passage is the same thing we saw by the ruins of the Old Rose Castle?" Osveld was speculating, but his tone was almost categorical, "Do you remember what Wood said?" They see something, but they can't remember it when they come to their mouths. ”

Kevin pinched his eyebrows, "um", and said, "It's about the same, it should be the same or something similar." ”

When he first heard Wood's description at the foot of the hill, Kevin thought that it should have something to do with Merlot, after all, no ordinary person can casually create this kind of memory-erasing effect, unless witchcraft and drugs go hand in hand. But he never thought that his godhead would come back one day, so he didn't think about the immortal bird godhead at all.

And the moment he arrived at the Old Castle of the Roses and saw the immortal birds, he already understood what Wood had seen in the secret passage.

But if Wood is the immortal bird they see, then the question arises-

What did Merlot arrange for them to see the Immortal Bird for? Why did some of them die and some of them live to chase the old castle of roses?

Moreover, since he had a way to get the immortal bird to go to the secret passage to hang around, why didn't he just force Kevin to get back his godhead in the secret passage, and had to go around in a big circle to the old castle of roses?

Kevin sat there with his legs bent, his elbows loosely clasped between his knees, slowly rubbing his eyebrows, and his eyes lowering his eyes and thinking: Why did Merlofe make so much effort to bring him back to the throne here? Does the Old Castle of Roses have any special meaning to him?

Osvid, who was on the side, looked like he was meditating when he replied vaguely, thinking that he was also trying to recall the missing part of his memory. He raised his furry paw and patted Kevin lightly, and said, "Don't rub it, don't think about it if you can't think about it, in fact, I have a guess." ”

Kevin was stunned and looked up at him: "...... What guess? ”

"Do you remember why we came to the Old Castle of the Rose?" Oswid said in a deep voice, "It's because the Priests' House said that you saw traces of Phae in the Old Castle of the Roses, do you remember the scene that Mowgli saw?" He said that he saw Fae standing by the broken wall of the tower of the Old Rose Citadel, carrying a longbow in his hand and a totem of an immortal bird on one side of his neck. ”

Kevin laughed dryly, "Well, you remember quite clearly, and then what?" ”

"Mowgli and they don't mention when this scene appeared, and we seem to subconsciously assume that it was a thing of the past, that it had already appeared in the old castle of roses. But what if it's not the past, but the future? What if what Mowgli saw was actually some kind of prophecy? He turned his head to stare at Kevin, his transparent eyes looking particularly thorough and clear: "You say, the memories we have all erased are about Fae?" When we arrive at the Old Castle of Roses, when we land in front of the tower, will we see Fae, the god of light? ”

Kevin looked at him numbly, speechless.

"If you really saw a miracle, it's completely understandable that your memory is missing." "After all, that's not something that ordinary people can just see. And then we had a mass coma......"

He raised his eyes and swept over the piles of people in the dungeon, and even guessed solemnly: "If my idea is correct, then, it is likely that we were moved into this place by Phae, after all, who can move so many people from the ground to the ground at once?" ”

Kevin: "......"

"What do you think?" Osvid finished analyzing, glanced at him, and asked in a deep voice.

"Reasonable, well-founded and logical, that's pretty much it." Kevin waved his hand, agreeing very perfunctorily, and at the same time muttered in his heart: Young people really dare to think that they can guess all of this, and they are convinced.

Kevin muttered as his eyes wandered around the corners of the dungeon, trying to find something he hadn't noticed before.

As soon as he looked at it, he felt a furry thing come to his back and arch him violently.

Kevin was already afraid of itching, and he got goosebumps from such an arch, and he turned around and said, "...... What are you doing? ”

As a result, Osveld lifted his noble and handsome wolf head, tilted slightly to the right, and made a very arrogant shape, and then a little slanted gaze leaked from the corner of his eye, and looked at Kevin very dissatisfied.

Obviously, he was not very happy by Kevin's perfunctory answer just now, after all, His Majesty the Emperor had boldly made such a series of very reliable associations and guesses.

Kevin only felt a large line clearly printed on his furry face - should you praise me? Is this a minimum of politeness? Do you really take imperial power into account?!

Kevin: "......"

Ever since some people pierced the window paper, there has been a posture of "no face". In the past, His Majesty the Emperor wanted to save face, and tried his best to make himself appear calm, steady, profound and introverted, but now he doesn't know what is wrong, and he is running towards some strange route.

If you have to define it, it is probably that you can't completely pull down your face, and you want to show your talent, so you are stuck between the arrogant wolf and the peacock who opens the screen.

Kevin stared at his face silently for a while, raised his hand and slapped him on the head, rubbed his hair twice, and praised in an eerie tone of "Are you two hundred and five": "How can you be so smart, your intelligence is about to catch up with a ten-year-old human child, promise me, while playing!" ”

Osvid: "......"

He snorted through his nose, staring at Kevin's every move with a heavy gaze. Kevin didn't know what he saw at this time, he was standing up and walking towards the corner of the wall on the side, from Osvid's point of view, he could see a white neck under his dark hair, because of the relationship between twisting his head, pulling out an obvious outline of muscles and bones, thin and good-looking.

Oswald squinted for a moment, only to feel that the roots of his teeth were itchy, and he wanted to pounce on the muscular part and grind it twice with the tip of his teeth. He licked the tip of his teeth and pressed the impulse, and suddenly remembered something, and said, "That's right—"

"Huh?" Kevin half-crouched down in the corner, groping for something, and answered without looking back.

Osveld's teeth itched even more when he heard his lazy voice. He coughed before he straightened out, "The priest said that there is a pattern of an immortal bird on the side of Fae's neck, so it shouldn't be difficult to find such an obvious mark." "After all, according to the language of the priest, the appearance of Fae can be related to the life and death of the Golden Lion Kingdom.

Kevin shook his fingers when he heard this, turned his head and said angrily: "Do you see that this is mentioned in the "Divine Calendar"? ”

"Not really...... You mean the pattern doesn't follow him all the time? Osveld said.

Kevin: "It's just that no one else can see it." ”

Osvid thought for a moment and said, "That's right...... The immortal bird is the representative totem of Phae, could it have something to do with his soul or something? It's like that kind of imprint kind of thing, which is not usually revealed under normal circumstances, but only at certain times? For example, when you return to the world, the soul returns? ”

I have to say...... Young people are really divergent. Kevin half-squatted in the corner, and said secretly in his heart: I guessed eight or nine again.

That totem Kevin couldn't be clearer, that represents the ontological godhead, how can it be exposed on the neck every day for people to see? Under normal circumstances, as long as the state itself is stable, it will not be revealed.

In case one day the temple of light suddenly has a quirk, sleepwalking, losing a soul or something, it may be revealed.

However, the probability of this kind of thing happening is so low that it is like Merlot running to Kevin and taking the initiative to give him the hundred or so godheads in his possession.

In short, the emperor still doesn't expect to rely on this to find people, it's faster to dream.

He muttered in his heart, and the movements in his hands did not stop.

As he swept his gaze over the corner, he saw a crack behind one of the soldiers leaning against the wall. So I came over and fumbled around, and sure enough, I felt something in the crack.

The crack was only a finger wide, and by the time it came out, it had almost shattered into Kevin's hand. He shook the black scrap into his palm, fiddled with it, and sniffed closer.

"What are you sniffing about?" Osveld walked over with a frown.

Kevin stared at the crumbs for a moment and said, "I know what this place is." ”

Although the handful of scraps in his hand is no longer the same, Kevin can still smell it through the little breath that remains, which is the smell of Long Vine Yueji.

Legend has it that the Old Castle of Roses is famous for its apricot-colored roses, which climb every corner of the castle, making it a beautiful and dreamy country. Now that I think about it, it's probably not a rose, but an apricot-colored long vine that is very similar to a rose.

The apricot vine was much more familiar to Kevin than the apricot rose, because it was the flower that Tenis used to create Merlot.

"Where?" Osvid asked.

Kevin twisted the pieces and said lightly, "Suta Plain." ”

He finally knew why Merlot had to put his godhead back here.

As far as Kevin knows about Melo, both as a child and later when his temper began to become eccentric, there is a habit of not knowing whether to count the strengths or weaknesses - he is particularly fond of self-remembrance.

Later, Kevin thought that it was probably because he desperately wanted to peel himself off from Kevin's shadow, so he liked to emphasize himself. Everything he creates, he must have a unique mark on a corner. He identified every day that was closely related to him as a certain anniversary, and marked every place that was special to him as a holy place.

In the past, Tenice only thought that he was like a puppy paddling around, and this kind of behavior did not feel that there was anything wrong with the big and small gods who thought they were elders, except for being stubborn and funny, that is, being paranoid and cute.

In a way, these prodigal gods also have big hearts.

With Merlot's personality, the Suta Plains is the place where he was born, how could he not consider it a special place? And it's not simply special, it's the most sacred place.

He likes to remind everyone to remember things related to him, so that Kevin can regain his godhood in the former Suta Plains, which will inevitably give Merlot the illusion of "I give you life", and can always remind Kevin that he returned to the godhood in the place where the post-god was born, which is the charity of the post-god.

This is too much in line with Merlot's temperament.

Just as he was twisting the powder out of his mind, the giant beast wolf on the side suddenly let out a low snort from the bottom of his throat, and then leaned down with a vigilant expression, pressed against the ground, as if listening to something.
