Chapter 168: Dark Night
The Anya people went back, acting quiet and docile, and there was no movement on the side of the demons. Lily sat under the banner and watched quietly as the bear picked the fat and thin. The wind swept by, and the affectionate whirled in front of him, like a hiccup, stirring up a bloody breath, and carrying it away gradually away.
A flock of vultures in the sky is like a tumbling cloud, which does not dare to fall, but is reluctant to leave. In the distance, more dark shadows were flying in this direction, and the sunlight gradually disappeared behind them. The shadows spread rapidly across the ground, seemingly engulfing everything.
Lily remained motionless, letting the vultures croak. She was used to meditating like this, and she thought of Bran inadvertently whenever she did. I think of him lying lazily in the rocking chair, and I think of him sitting lazily on the ground.
In Bran's eyes, the people around him are like these vultures, right? And what about me? What does he think of me?
......
The Anya people and the demons are all watching there, how can there be such an existence in the world?
Anxiety and fear grow in their hearts.
How could that insignificant corpse on the ground attract so many vultures? These messengers of death must have smelled something to be so attached to it.
As the sun set, the vultures did not return to their nests, and they carefully landed around the maiden in the twilight. The black pressure was like a boulder hanging overhead, making everyone breathless.
People look at the afterglow of the sunset, and their eyes are full of reluctance, as if it is the last hope in life.
When night fell, the imaginary army of the Northland did not appear, which made everyone breathe a sigh of relief. The hard day is finally over, and I can still sleep well tonight.
The moonlight is beautiful, and the girl under the moonlight is even more beautiful. She seemed tired of sitting, so she got up and walked towards the demon camp.
The soldiers on both sides noticed the anomaly at the same time, and the sirens sounded, sharp and piercing.
The alarm came too late, and the girl's figure flickered in the moonlight, and in the blink of an eye, she had already entered the demon camp, and there was an extra torch in her hand at some point.
She began to focus on igniting the first tent, then the next......
The fire gradually became unstoppable, gradually reflecting the entire sky.
On the walls of the Anya people, there is no place to stay. People crowded there, looking at the demon camp that had turned into a sea of fire.
The demons are finished! Some of the soldiers began to cheer, and then they grew louder and louder; the demons were finished! The faces of the knights sank like water, and a feeling of almost despair began to arise.
The night was too short, and the morning sun couldn't wait to jump out of the mountain. The banner of the Northland stood alone, the maiden was gone, the bear was gone, the vulture was gone.
It was like a dream, the ashes of the fire that kept falling from the sky, it was the embers of the dream.
......
Bran, who was sitting under the tree, also had a dream. In her dream, Lily walked out of the flames, endless flames twisting and dancing behind her, gradually forming a pair of huge wings.
She looked at him questioningly......
I fell asleep and had a strange dream. Bran sat there and thought for a long time, and finally gave up his speculation about the dream.
He didn't need sleep anymore, and he dreamed something he hadn't done in a long time. Now I fell asleep inexplicably and had an inexplicable dream.
It's fun, but it's a good feeling.
Footsteps sounded, and Zoya came to Bran and sat down, and then asked with some surprise, "Are you sweating?"
"Well, I had a dream, and there was a fire in my dream. β
"Lie to me again!"
"It's so late, why don't you sleep. β
"I can't sleep, I fought Erin twice today - I lost both. So I'm wondering, how did you improve in the first place?"
"Are you sure you want to know?"
"Hmm"
"Poke the honeycomb. β
Zoya ......
Looking at Zoya's skeptical expression, Bran emphasized again, "Really. Under the stimulus of pain and danger, you will find that you are far stronger than you imagined. β
......
After coaxing Zoya away, Bran patted the ancient tree and confessed, "Tomorrow I will go to Sandstone City, and this place will be handed over to you and Huahua." β
"No! I'm going to go this time, too. β
"I want you to go! The question is, can you go?"
The ancient trees were silent for a long time, and the forest road leading to Sandstone City was too narrow, and the branches of the trees on both sides were too luxuriant. It's not impossible to force your way through, but with the way the ancient tree is currently walking crookedly, it's a bit too difficult.
The old tree regretted that he hadn't listened to Bran in the first placeβto reduce his size.
Bran continued to tempt: "Just now, you also heard about Zoya. β
"Hmm. β
"I'll keep the goblins Lando and Lanjia by your side, and recruit a bunch of hornets then. β
"Hmm-" The ancient tree immediately came to his senses.
"Zoya will be in charge of your practice, how about it?"
"Good!"
"Be sure to keep her safe. β
"Well, I can't die. The ancient tree began to gear up.
Bran chose to believe in the ancient tree......
It's time to find out what's wrong with Sandstone City, and hopefully everything goes well.
