Chapter 11: The Call of Duty

"But now the people in the defense post are basically living in a leisurely way," Agnes pouted, "it's not at all what you said, the army of the Kenrisai family on the grassland has been encircling the orcs, and the defense post only needs to catch those thieves while patrolling." www.biquge.info In fact, the most beautiful place is the Shenyan Lake in the north of the Prancing Horse Grassland, which is as blue as the ocean, and the legend says that countless goblins will dance on the lake at night, and the shining light can be seen from the sunset town of the Night Harbor in the west, but when people really get close, they can't find any trace of them. ”

"What a wonderful scene, I know, and in the Whispering Forest, there are elves living here," Sam muttered as he finished the last piece of sausage, "in the town, the man who had a caravan the year before, the lame fellow, said that when he was younger, he got lost in the forest, and found a magician's retreat, good fellow, almost even a child can summon spirits of wind and fire, isn't it, Bibo?" ”

"Haha, you also believe this kind of drunken talk, and some people say that if you go out to sea in the Bay of Courage in Eagle City, if you are lucky, you can see a mermaid on the reef!" Billy reached out and patted Sam, "You can be a bard and spend your days wandering the country tavern, telling stories of accidents and delicious beer." ”

"I've heard a lot of rumors, but across the Silver Stream that flows west from the Blade of Lannos to the Lake of God's Eye, to the north, the Spearbone Wasteland, few people have mentioned it." "No one knows what the ice-covered Spearbone Wasteland is, there are no creatures there, but I've heard Taban say that if you go all the way north, there will be a path called the Frost and Snow Trail, which leads through the northern mountains to the frozen shores north of the main road. ”

"What's there?" Bibo's eyes widened, this is something that is not even recorded in a book.

"I don't know, maybe there's nothing, maybe there's another world, haha." "People are always curious about the unknown, looking forward to all kinds of adventures, but they are unaware of the dangers that lie ahead. ”

"You're right," Sam nodded, "you don't look like a noble girl at all, and I really don't know how to describe you." ”

"You'll know, Bibo, how much we're carrying on our shoulders," Agnes winked, "Now, let's get some rest!" Boys, don't be lazy! After saying that, he shrank back in the innermost part of the stone room, and after a while, he got up again and said, "By the way, Bibo, your father, I heard from my adoptive father that it is possible to live in seclusion in the Lake of God's Eye, but this seems to be unproven, after all, my adoptive father has not heard of him for many years, and we have found you and the holy relics here. But there's always hope, don't you? ”

"And what's his name?" Bibo shouted excitedly.

"I'm sorry, I don't know," Agnes rolled over and fell asleep again, "such a special person, my adoptive father never mentioned it, after all, people all over the world are looking for him. At least you're better than me, hehe, I've been with my adoptive father for as long as I can remember, and no one knows where my parents are, and there's no hope for me. Then he said no more.

Sam found a place to lie down, and everyone fell silent. Bibo extinguished the miner's lamp, and it was dark underground, and after a while, a few faint blue lights lit up on the top of the stone chamber, and the magic crystal of extremely low purity provided more light sources for the miners, and Bibo fell into deep contemplation.

He took out the Flame Stone and held it tightly in his hand, not knowing what to do, if he is really from the Lannos clan, then, fighting against the demons to restore the throne, this seems to be the thing that should be done, just like King Lanos I, guarding the entire continent, but he doesn't want to do this at all, he just wants to find every corner of the border continent, find his father, hope, hope, how addictive, is his mother still alive?

Also because of identity incognito? Maybe it's right on the shore of the Lake of God's Eye, herding horses and cattle with his father to escape the chaos of this world? Or cast nets and fish on the beach under the sunset in Sunset Town...... Why can't I be an ordinary person, like Sam, when I am twenty years old, maybe I will be able to give birth to a little Sam.

Thinking a lot, Bibo took out the stone badge that Egnes gave him, this noble girl, every time she saw her determined eyes, Bibo's heart would beat faster, it was she who opened a door for herself, the door of fate, at this moment, as if her life was closely linked to her.

After a long time, Sam took over with sleepy eyes, and Bibo fell into a deep sleep, and in the dream, he saw that on the Temple of Light in Athasia, the god of light was waving to him, and just as he was about to walk over, suddenly a huge python fell from the sky, wrapping himself in a breathless breath, any struggle was in vain, the black and white snake head was facing him, and a disgusting smell of blood erupted from his bloody mouth.

When he woke up, he was already soaking wet, and Agnes looked at him and smiled, "Why, like a child, talking in his dreams and yelling, I'm not afraid to summon the ghost!" I don't have any crystals to save you this time! ”

"Well, it's almost time to call Mom," Sam had already unscrewed the only miner's lamp left, "En, there's still a little and a half of oil, it should last four or five hours, enough for us to get to the surface!"

Bibo scratched his head embarrassedly, "Ahem, it's just a nightmare." ”

"From now on, remember every dream you have clearly!" Agnes suddenly became serious, "You must remember clearly, remember every detail clearly, and nothing should be missed." ”

"What do you mean?" Bibo rubbed his face with his hands, they had no water and no food, I hope as Sam said, they can get back to the surface in four or five hours, if they really get lost in these mines, they are really worried about what will happen, it is estimated that before starving to death, they will be torn to pieces by corroded spiders or ghosts, or all kinds of strange creatures, "Sam, are you sure we have been going up?" I've heard old miners say that being underground for a long time produces all kinds of hallucinations. ”

"Bibo, did you listen to me?" Agnes said angrily.

"Oh, oh, yes, yes, yes, dreams, I remember." Bibo said, "I don't usually dream, so the dream just now has a particularly deep impression on the kidneys, I dreamed that I was in the Temple of Light in ATexasia, and the god of light was calling me, but I was suddenly entangled in a huge python, and I clearly remember the smell of the python's mouth, it was disgusting......"

"Remember every detail, you have to keep remembering." Agnes nodded, "That way, you'll have insight into the future." ”

"Hahaha, Miss Agnes didn't expect this, is the magician just a bluffing gimmick, is it really a witch?" Sam haha remembered, "Then you say, I dreamed of my dad last night, and he actually took a stick and drove me outside, saying that I should get out of here and never go home." What does that mean? ”

"We can't explain the dream, we may all have felt this way, what is happening in front of us seems to be familiar, or a long time after the incident, suddenly remembering this scene seems to have appeared in a dream before," Agnes's eyes flashed, "believe the dream, especially you, Bibo, yesterday your blood has been fused with the Flame Stone, and you have already connected with the guardian god, so, according to my adoptive father, you will see the future from the dream, of course, these clues are not so obvious." ”

"Eun, I see!" Bibo thought about it, he felt that the dream just now was indeed extraordinary, although it was short and direct, but the feeling was unusually real, it was really like his own biological experience.

"Alright, let's hurry up!" Sam held up the miner's lamp, "I hope my dad can really dare me to go out, I'm really worried now, Bibo, I can't go with you to save the world without saying goodbye to him, haha!" ”

"Fat Mouse, when we get to Eagle City, I will definitely introduce a noble girl, if your father knows, he will definitely be happy to close his mouth."

"Just be as pretty as you are, hahaha!" Sam laughed, and the mine was filled with cheerful echoes. A few startled mice squeaked past.

"Wait," Bibo stopped suddenly, "look, what's up ahead?" ”

"I see," Sam leaned forward, carrying the lamp, "hey, a mouse, no, squirrel, it's strange that it's in the middle of the road in the mine, not moving, as if it had been staring at us!" ”

"Hey, is that you? Squeak! Agnes shouted, "Squeak? ”

Bibo remembered, this is the little squirrel of Taiban, why is it here? "Squeak, squeak!" The little grey squirrel made a hurried sound, then turned around, pausing to look back at them as he ran.

"It seems to be in a hurry, is it showing us the way?" Sam looked stunned, "I've really encountered the most unlikely thing in my life these days, Bibo, what other secrets do you have?" ”

"Keep up, I think something might be happening," Agnes frowned, "If Tayban had asked him to pick us up, it wouldn't have been so hasty!" Soon, something might be wrong on the ground. ”

As he walked, Bibo explained to Sam about Tayban, a wandering mage, and explained how focused he was, Sam felt that this non-offensive spell was not very practical, "You say, when I see him, I beg him to teach me fireball techniques, how about it?" I'll just learn this one! ”

"It's not that easy to attack magic," Agnes laughed, "You're thinking too simply, all magic requires mental power, spells, and media materials to work together. ”

"Then my concentration can be used only to concentrate, and I don't use any media materials or spells?" Bibo asked curiously, apart from his father, this is probably the thing he is most interested in now.
