"I'm sorry, Lipel." Desilei's face was apologetic and reluctant, but more firm, "We, I'm afraid we have to part here." β
She had just cleared the Desert Spirit's barrier and forced the magical creature to agree to send them out, but she didn't want to say goodbye to the blonde girl at such a juncture.
"Remember the last name I used to mention to you?" At this moment, there seems to be an indescribable temperament on her body, she is no longer frivolous, she is no longer arrogant, and she no longer looks like a wandering ranger.
"I am the warrior of the Tenth Holy Realm, Venidnes, I was born there, I grew there, and now it is in trouble...... I have to go back. β
Was it that betrayal that gave her such growth, or did anyone else behave in a similar situation?
The memories were touched by her firmness in that moment, and I couldn't help but think of the change in my heart when I woke up from that coma and heard my brother step into Becas Island alone.
And earlier, I made up my mind not to follow the direction of the plot, but to change my brother's mood when his heart was shattered by the game.
That should ...... It was the beginning of my transformation, and it was the seed that had an increasing influence on my heart and will, until today.
Now, too, she ......
"How much help can you go back alone?" It was my voice, "Why don't we wait until we're done with this side and go there to help you?" β
It wasn't until this moment that I confessed, subconsciously, that I didn't want her to leave me - not just her, I didn't want anyone to leave.
What scares me the most right now......
Eh......!?
This touches ...... By...... Hugged?
There was a shadow in front of me, so DesirΓ©e was taller than me...... I realized this problem for the first time.
"We'll see you again, Lipal." She whispered softly in my ear, and the vibrations of the air made my ears tingle. "I hid a lot from you, not only from me, but also from what caused my injuries...... You and I are the same enemyβthe nightmare army you mentioned. β
"The starting point of their aggression is Lophinia, the Twelfth Sacred Realm, and in that order, whether or not Vinidnis is caught in the flames of war, it is the third...... That's why I have to go back, whether it's dead or not. β
"You've saved me, you've helped me so much, you've taught me so much, and I've been ...... when you need people I'm sorry - but ......"
It seems that it has been decided and cannot be changed.
Then ...... "Then I'll give you one last gift." I said, and reached out and hugged her as well.
The time to enter the Holy Realm was earlier than expected, and I almost had less than half a year of life, since I had already decided which step was the last, it was useless to keep these extra things, it was better to ......
"What is this, Lipel...... You, what are you doing? β
"Quietly experience this spirit." I made more efforts to prevent her from breaking free at this time, "A solidified equipment effect will help you." β
A long time ago, I had the feeling that many things in the elven world happened by accident, just like that stone statue couldn't answer my question anyway...... Their possibilities are stuck in the air, beyond the text in the effect description column.
And Desire's identity should be the "female warrior of the wilderness" in the card elves.
If this inference is followed, then her effect is the meaning of her existence in this world.
[Warrior of the Wilderness]: This card can only be activated when it is destroyed in battle and sent to the graveyard, and it will be a special summon from the deck to attack a land attribute and warrior monster with an attack power of 1500 or less.
No matter what the predetermined fate is, I will not let you become a stepping stone for others.
Fighting Spirit, which can increase the amount of the equipped individual with the number of opponents, is converted to a number of jΓΉ that each enemy rises by 300, and can resist a battle destruction for the equipped individual, which is equivalent to an extra life.
"Hopefully, we'll really see each other again." After saying this, I lowered my head, I didn't want her to notice my current state.
The throat was full of the smell of blood, and it really took too much soul power to solidify the magic of equipment.
White......
There seemed to be a call in the distance, looming.
is such a kind voice, just hearing it, the whole person seems to be immersed in the warm water, and people can't help but want to let go of a qiΔ and accept something completely......
White......
The voice got closer and closer, and a faint white shadow appeared in front of him, which seemed to be a ...... Exactly the same as me......
"Hey!" A loud roar exploded in his ears, and Li Bai was clever and opened his eyes in an instant.
She was caught by the old wooden ceiling, and she was lying on a small bed barely big enough to squeeze two people, covered with a thick quilt, and it seemed to be a bedroom with her alone.
Oh, and maybe add a non-human.
"I said I was going to take a nap, but I wanted to run up and call you." The lion wizard grumbled dissatisfiedly, "You don't have much soul to consume, so you have to die by yourself, I really don't understand what you think." Do you know that this is a very strict matter, you and her still have a secret connection before! If you're weak, she'll be strong! If your soul is too weak, it's not a question of how long you can live, I'm afraid that the moment you see her, you will lose even the desire to do it, and completely become her slave from the spiritual level!! β
"If I'm right, your fatigue during this time is resisting her attraction to you in your dreams, right?"
"......" Li Bai ignored him, her eyes fell on the hourglass on the windowsill, and saw that the sand inside was almost finished.
The hourglass was a timekeeping tool in the town where they now landed, and the sand leaked completely from one end to represent the last two ticks.
"I slept for more than an hour?" She asked.
"It's been almost four hours." The lion wizard replied with a wooden face, "Lilith came in and gave you a turn in the middle of the way, and the oil in the lamp was also refilled...... After the blonde runs away, only she and another blonde can take care of you. β
"Yes." Reaching out and pressing his forehead, Li Bai struggled to resist the faint feeling of dizziness.
After nearly four hours of sleep, her spirit not only did not improve, but she tended to be more tired, which is very abnormal.
It was indeed her mistake not to expect that such sequelae would occur after her soul was weak to a certain level, but if she was asked to choose again, she would probably still help Desilei solidify her fighting spirit. That's the partner she's recognized, and no accidents are allowed.
As for the current situation......
"Tell them that dinner doesn't have to wait for me." She lay back on the bed and covered herself tightly, leaving only her head exposed, "I still need two more hours to get a real rest." β
"Are you going to use hypnotism in magic again?" The lion wizard shook his head, "That's a palliative but not a cure, although the consumption is very small, but you will hardly have any supplements, what should you do if you encounter an accident in the future?" β
"This is a world dominated by card elves." Li Bai closed his eyes and didn't look worried, "Don't forget, I'm still a duelist." β
β¦β¦
Two hours passed, and Li Bai, who had regained his energy, gathered all the personnel in the lobby of the hotel they had rented, intending to discuss the next step.
At present, they have settled down in this place called the town of Sun, which is no different in structure from the ancient towns in the present world, except for some details and customs, except for the occasional strange-looking race moving around, and the myths and legends that have been passed down from the mouths of the old people from time to time.
"It's been eight I-hourglass hours since we left the desert, which is sixteen hours, and plus the time spent in the desert before, it's about eighteen hours." Misawa sat beside Tanya and said the information he had gathered, "But as you can see, the sky here is still dark, and there is no sign of sunrise. β
"According to what I heard...... Here, this world called Floris has been broken and occupied by a sudden invading force, and because of the curse of that power, it has become a dark world that never sees the light of day. β
"It's amazing...... "Jushiro and his two younger brothers said that it was so cool, "It's like a myth and legend!" β
Lilith and Li Bai frowned when they heard the news, and glanced at each other, their faces ugly.
Before leaving, DesirΓ©e said that the starting point of the Nellofa invasion was the twelfth element, and if this place had been captured, it would mean that the Venidenes that DesirΓ©e was going to had also fallen, which would undoubtedly bring her a lot of resistance; And this resistance also applies to their current situation, where Floris has lost the sunshine and the supreme leader who rules the land is already an enemy.
"However, without daylight, our search will be difficult." Jim Claudile Cook removed a long strip of cloth from the strap behind him, and pulled it off, revealing a worn-out roll of leather paper inside.
"This is a map I got from a cloth dealer with my pocket watch." He unfolded the map, laid it flat on the table, and pointed to a few of the places, "I've studied the map with O'Brien and Amon, and these are the places where we think it's possible to find John. β
"Doesn't it look like it's very far from this town, is it because of the desert?" Manjomu held his chin and pretended to be pensive, but in fact, his eyes were constantly peeking at Asuka on the side, "I remember that the place where the Duel Academy came was on the edge of the desert. β
"Isn't there no doubt about it, idiot." Kagurazaka propped his chin and looked at Manjamu with stupid eyes.
"This is not the time for infighting." Li Bai looked at him like him, forcing him to shut his mouth, and then she began to think about how to arrange her group.
"So be it...... There are a total of 5 suspicious locations on the map, and Jim has marked a good location, where there happen to be towns or villages nearby that can be used as rest; There are 14 of us, divided into several groups, and try to explore these 5 locations at the same time, which will be more efficient. β
"The personnel are assigned according to the partners you feel closest to at the moment - ten generations, you are in a group with Maruteng and Kenzan; Misawa and Miss Tanya and Mr. Kronos in a group; Kagura, you take Asuka with Manjome; I'm with Lilith. β
"As for the three." She turned her head to look at the three exchange students on the side, "I guess you don't want to be broken up either...... So it counts as the fifth group, no problem, right? β
"No problem." Jim exchanged glances with the other two, indicating that he would accept her offer.
This kind of exploration of another world doesn't have time to run in feelings, naturally how efficient and how to come, their small group has been together for a while, and the tacit understanding of acting together is definitely higher than breaking up other groups.
"It's okay here." "It's the same here." "I'll take care of them."
"Very good...... arranged matters, Li Bai's tense nerves were a little relaxed, and there was not much energy left to recover, so he actually wanted to yawn.
"During the time I had my break, I worked hard for you to go out and gather information." She took two steps back, and bowed slightly to everyone with the elegant demeanor that the eldest lady of the group should have, "The hourglass in the hall records the dormant time, and a rotation is ten hours, and when the time comes, there will be servants to wake us up, so there is no need to worry about the problem of no sunrise." β
"So, please rest as soon as possible." She smiled slightly, "Have a good dream, too." β
β¦β¦
Flotis, Central Region South, Carol Castle, inside the palace.
A man shrouded in black robes hurriedly walked into the corridor, as if he had something important to report, but unexpectedly, the moment he was about to step into the inner hall, he changed color and changed drastically, and he jumped back with almost all the strength of his luck.
"Click!" A strange crash sounded in his ears, and the man looked at the giant beast in front of him that suddenly emerged from the void with a pale face, and his hands kept shaking, and he didn't know if it was because of fear or something else.
About half of the body of the giant beast was hidden in the void, and the joints revealed ripples like water waves, its appearance was quite disgusting, its appearance resembled that of a striped insect, its whole body to its forehead was almost a scarlet smooth carapace, only the chin and the front of the abdomen were light yellow cuticles, the upper limbs were short but thick and powerful, and it was staring at him with a pair of small and fierce eyes, and saliva was constantly dripping from the exposed sharp teeth.
The loud bang just now was the sound of its teeth snapping together.
"Yu Xiu!" The man was a little hairy at the giant beast's staring, and he had no choice but to let out a low roar, "Don't get your beast away quickly!" It's me! Don't you even know me!? β
"Hey, hey, hey......" With his roar, a sharp mockery came through the void, and a short, gray-skinned, shriveled man stepped on the back of the giant beast.
"Elander, dear friend, don't be angry......" The dwarf sat down cross-legged on the smooth carapace of the giant beast, reaching out and gently stroking it above its head, "You must know that training the beast is a very difficult task, because of the victory of the legion, I have four safe dimensional passages, and there are far more little ones waiting for training uniforms than before...... Moreover, it is understandable that you are about to enter the inner sanctum where Lord Blause is resting so suddenly, and this little baby can't help it for a while......"
"you, it's excusable!" Aland ripped off his hood, revealing short gray hair, and his middle-aged face was full of twists, "I was almost bitten in two by it just now!" That's two! Do you know two cuts! It's not that you can pick up the two pieces if JJ is broken! The middle part will be chewed and swallowed like a snack! β
"I'm cΗo!" Yu Xiu's eyelids jumped, "You dare to mention that thing again?" I'll make you really 'two' in no time! β
"You dare! Behind me is Lord Soul Hunter, if you dare to move me, I'll try it!? β
Just when the two of them were about to make a move, a sword aura as black as ink suddenly drilled out of the shadows of the inner hall, impartial, and just slashed through the tip of Bi Xiu's shoes, cutting off the front half of the head of the "wild beast" under his feet.
"Smack." The deactivated flesh splattered out dark red blood and fell to the ground, and Yu Xiu's frightened legs weakened, and he actually sat down directly, sitting on the headless corpse that was still standing.
"How dare you make a loud noise in front of the door of the inner sanctum." Nate stepped out of the shadows, her face gloomy as water, "You've grown a lot......"
"Master Blaus!"
"His Highness Blaus!"
Seeing the black-haired girl, Bixiu and Elander shouted out their honorific titles, and the former jumped to the ground, and knelt down like the latter, not daring to come out at all.
They had no intention of justifying their previous rudeness - they had done it before, but it ended up in the same way as the puddle of dead flesh on the side......
In the expeditionary force of the Mithraic Central Empire, no matter which legion, no matter which branch or squad, no one knows that what this witch hates most is sophistry, and the only consequence is death.
On the contrary, he directly admits that he may be able to get her appreciation.
"Elander." Nit lifted the hem of her priest's robe to wipe the sharp dagger in her hand, not caring that doing so would expose her thighs wrapped in black stockings under her robe.
"Yes!" Glancing slightly at the sexy legs, the gray-haired middle-aged man couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat, and he pressed his head even lower.
"Tell me, what's the matter with you looking for me in such a hurry."
"If you don't satisfy me, you know what will happen......"
"Your Highness, your subordinates are indeed looking for you in an urgent matter." Alander whispered, but still didn't raise his head, "Lord Soul Hunter was injured by a space-time storm while guarding that dimensional passage, but that's not the point......"
"Lord Soul Hunter, he found the group of people that His Majesty told him to look for!"
ββ¦β¦ Oh? There was a mixed exclamation of surprise overhead.
Nate Blause slowly lowered the hem of her robe and thrust her dagger back into its scabbard.
"The group of people you are looking for, in Flotis...... In my dark realm? β
