Chapter 337: The Second Day of the Academy Festival and the Day of Crossbell's Fate (10)
I don't know if it was the arrangement of fate or a simple coincidence, as soon as Li En appeared on the stage and plucked the strings, the bell at the top of "City of Mirrors" began to shake, and the magnificent bell rang through Mishuram.
The moment the bell rang, the celestial globe at the entrance of "City of Mirrors" emitted countless tiny, wool-like points of light. The point of light quickly spread to the entire castle, revealing a faint blue light even on the nearby water surface. This is a unique phenomenon caused by the concentration of spiritual power reaching a critical value, where fantasy and beauty coexist, and splendor and magnificence are intertwined.
With the sound of the bells, accompanied by the beautiful scenery, burst into the top floor of the Dream Castle and pass through the water ripple-like mirror.
Lloyd and the others came to the real heart of "City of Mirrors", a vast space with dense pipelines. The target they're looking for, Kia, sits in the middle of the weird machine connected to the pipeline.
In front of Kia, Arian Heard stood side by side with Maria Bell.
As he had seen him when he first met, he was carrying a huge riding spear, wrapped in heavy silver armor, revealing only a pair of eyes.
In contrast, Mariabel, who is familiar to everyone, has changed her image. The professional outfit worn on weekdays was replaced by a purple-black "light armor". Different from the traditional light armor, Mariabel's "light armor" belongs to "what should be exposed, and almost all that should not be exposed." ā
No matter what armor focuses on the chest, heart and other vital parts of the defense, Mariabel's equipment is not yet defended, not only is it undefended, but half of the sphere is exposed, squeezing out a thrilling career line.
However, the traditional light armor is considered to be flexible, but the specially cut shoulder armor and skirt armor have been greatly strengthened. Extending outward, it could almost sit down the shoulder armor of an adult woman, almost dragging to the ground, and the inner and outer layers of skirt armor were not far behind the heavy armor of Arian Hurd.
In addition, Mariabel holds a 2.5-meter-long staff in her hand - it is said to be a staff, but it is actually closer to a double pentent. It's just that because there are too many ornaments on the weapon, it is too complicated, and it must be awkward when used in melee combat, so it is reluctantly classified as a staff.
If there is anything that has not changed, there is probably only the only hairstyle in the world - auger drill double ponytail.
Lloyd yells Kia's name, Ellie shouts Mariabell's nickname, and Arios and Guy stare at Fullmetal Saintess. (Maria Bell's nickname is Bell.) ļ¼
Mariabel was not surprised by the arrival of the crowd: "Hehe, you have finally arrived." ā
"Bell," Ellie asked in a loud voice, "why are you in such a place?" ā
"The answer is simple." Mariabel seemed to appreciate Himetomo's expression now, and smiled, "As a descendant of the Courrois family, who inherited the Great Treasure, I'm just doing my duty. ā
"Arcana of Greatness" Arios' face changed, "Is it similar to the "Ring of Radiance" that appeared in Libel?"
"Now that you know that, it's easy to explain." Next is Aunt Bei's storytelling time, and it is also the time for the big boss to pretend to show off, "In the distant past, the goddess gave the "Seven Treasures" to humans, and one of the treasures was inherited by my ancestors. However, it only lasted until 1,200 years ago. Due to an unfortunate accident, we lost the treasure given by the Goddess. As a result, the ancestors of the Kurois family were convinced to recover the treasure no matter what, and a very ambitious plan was launched, and in the end, we built a huge 'formula' beneath Crossbell. ā
"'Style'? Could it be that incomprehensibly huge system that makes use of the conductive network? "It's worthy of being a genius Lolitio, and you can guess it.
"That's right, the fusion of modern channeling technology with the alchemy of the Courrois family gave birth to the 'science of magic'. On the basis of magic science, we have finally succeeded in constructing that extremely amazing and huge 'formula'. ā
"The 'formula' built with the help of 'magic science', and alchemy, yes, so that's the case." The mystery that had been weighing on Lloyd's mind was finally solved, "The group of alchemists who built the Tower of Astral Insight and provided the technology for the Order are your Coroys family." ā
"Well, in that case, the 'cradle' that Kia was in when she was asleep is also the same thing," Ellie asked.
"That is, of course, what the Culrois family has given to the 'Order' to give them the object of their faith, so that they can serve happily." Speaking of this, Mariabel's face showed a look of confusion, "However, not long ago, that 'cradle' was moved, and its whereabouts are still unknown, perhaps the remnants of the 'Order' did it. Anyway, it's not an important thing, they like it, just take it, and take it as a little reward for them. ā
Kia, who sat in the center of the machine, was gloomy for a moment.
"Listen to your tone, the Dā“G Order was secretly induced by your Courois family?" Randy frowned.
"Well, it's just our puppet." Mariabel admitted, "But they don't notice it at all." ā
"I see, we already know the general background." Arios said in a deep voice, "The barriers that have repeatedly blocked us, Crossbell's real twist point"
"There is a huge undercurrent hidden behind Crossbell's history, and you are the ones who wantonly play and trample on people's hearts and commit many crimes!" Guy's voice was fierce.
"Ah, it's all us." Mariabel confessed, "Everything is for the thousand-year-old wish of the Courrois family, everything is for the reproduction of the great treasure!" ā
"To be honest, I couldn't figure it out for a moment when I suddenly heard so many amazing facts." Lloyd took a deep breath and exhaled slowly, "But there's one thing I have to say. I don't know if that 'Supreme Treasure' is great or not, but I will never allow you to involve Kia in your own delusions! ā
"Kia! Come back! I don't know how they instigated you, but Kia has always been Kia! I'm not going to let you sit in that kind of chair with a sad face! ā
"Lloyd" Qiya's eyes were red, and she subconsciously wanted to reach out, but as soon as she lifted it, she put it down.
"Kia. Officer Lloyd has already said that, what are you going to do? Mariabel smirked.
Kia lowered her head and said nothing.
Seeing that Qi Ya fell silent, the support department continued to persuade.
"Kia?" Lloyd continued to call her name.
"You, what's wrong with you?" Ellie is as gentle as usual.
"Aqi, what else is there to hesitate about. Just like usual, throw yourself into Lloyd's arms! This is the most reassuring thing to do! "Randy is still so reliable.
"Yes, you may have a lot on your mind, but I don't think it could be more important." Theo smiled the warmest smile of his life.
"Lloyd Ellie Landitio"
Kia's gaze lingered on the faces of the four of them, and each time she looked at one of them, her face wavered a little more.
Because this is her family, the person who can make her feel at ease the most.
- and the people she wants to protect at all costs.
Just as the heavens and humans were fighting in Qiya's mind, a joking voice suddenly sounded. (To be continued.) )
