【Inside the Glacier Guard Fortress】

"Where are you going so late? Yukino-sama has instructed her to take you wherever you are interested when she returns. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 info" said the guard at the door respectfully, his eyes hidden in the shadow of his jaw.

"Ahh There's no way, then ......" Udil raised his hand as if to scratch his head, and suddenly a palm fell on the back of the opponent's neck, knocking the man unconscious, "I'm sorry." ”

Although it was early in the morning, and although Freljord was located in the far north of Valoran, and the glacier guard fortress was in the north of this far north, the sunrise was late, but it was enough to get a good night's sleep.

But he tossed and turned, and Jax led Lisandro away, and the scenes he saw in the forbidden places of the city, although they were all confirmed to be illusions, were replayed in his mind over and over again.

The corridor is also dim, the delicate polar ice wall lamp looks crystal clear during the day, but the actual lighting effect is particularly limited, only a light blue dim light, opening a misty bright field between the corridors, shrouding the entire corridor in a mysterious and strange atmosphere.

Only the sound of his footsteps echoed through the empty hallway, like ripples of water on the surface of a lake.

He walked cautiously, hiding a small stone in his palm, reserved for luring the guards away at a critical time. It would be easy to deal with one or two guards, but he didn't want to overdo it, since this was Lisandro's mansion, and it wouldn't be polite to make a mess while no one was at home.

Strangely enough, he barely saw the guards, not even outside Lisandro's room, which was unusual.

He sneaked into Lisandro's room, thinking that the beast spirit would forgive him for his mistakes. His palm controlled the flame lighting of the fire phoenix, it was a woman's room, but there was no feminine feature in it, the decoration did not seem to be much different from the tribal totem, almost like a prayer temple, Udir walked to the huge bookshelf, which was full of ancient scrolls, these scrolls were made of ice, and they were cold in their hands, and they did not melt because of body temperature, obviously extremely ice material.

He unfolded the scroll and looked at it, but none of the words he recognized—it seemed to be some ancient script. In fact, Udil's literacy was limited, and it wasn't until he joined the War College after the Ionian War that he learned a few common scripts, and the knowledge of the Beast Spirit Walker has always been passed down by word of mouth, and it is true that it cannot be recorded in words.

He retied the scroll and was about to put it back, but it was placed on the edge of the bookshelf and accidentally fell to the floor.

His ears almost pricked up because of the sound of the scroll falling on the floor.

He crouched down and picked up the scroll, his fingers tapping lightly on the ground, a hollow sound. The top floor of the Glacier Guard Fortress is Lisandro's room, and there are no rooms on the lower floors, so as to show that the Snow Prayer Dance has an unattainable status, but I didn't think there was any mystery hidden in it.

Udir smashed his fist on it, but there was no feedback, the floor was also made of Polar Ice, which was almost impossible to destroy, even if Polar Ice collided with Polar Ice, as Sejuani's Chained Chains of the North Wind had already demonstrated.

There must be some mechanism hidden around here, but maybe Snow Prayer Dance has a way to open the polar ice, and this is entirely possible, in which case he won't be able to know what is down there.

He searched around, such as touching some books that didn't look the same, looking for mechanisms or hidden grids on the walls, but he didn't seem to find anything, the huge eye patterns on the walls were so numerous and the same, if one of them was used to trigger the mechanism, I am afraid that even the designer himself could not find it.

Udir noticed a statue of a phoenix, although the ice phoenix Anivia was the guardian of the land of Freljord, she had no followers, and the Frost Guardian did not believe in phoenixes, but placed such a statue in the room where Snow Danced was placed.

Udir brought the illuminated flame closer, and the sculpture looked so vivid that Udir could even tell from the strange stone carving that it was a fiery phoenix, its feathers covered with flame patterns.

His hand caressed the statue, his palm could almost feel the touch of a feather from the stone, and the flames that sprang up from its body had sharp edges and corners, and it ached faintly at the tips of his fingers, as if it were a living thing, but it was a pure statue, and he carefully touched every corner of the statue, like a blind man relying on the touch of his hand to grasp the whole picture of the object.

But there is one place that seems to be a little loose, that is, the eyes of this fire phoenix, which seem to be the parts that some handicrafts design can rotate, so the structure of activity is used, such an idea makes him feel a little cold, if the eyes of the sculpture can move, it seems to be monitoring the people around him at all times.

Could it be that the Frost Guardian tribe believes in eyes?

But he couldn't find the switch that could move the eyes, maybe that's where the mechanism is?

May the Spirit of the Fire Phoenix forgive! He pressed his index finger and middle finger against those eyes, and with a little force, he really pushed the carved eyes into them little by little, and there was a stomach twitching sound in the hole of the stone carving, as if he was really digging his fingers into the eyes of the giant bird and gouging out its eyes!

Udil's body trembled, his stomach twitched tightly, as if he would vomit at any moment, but fortunately the torture was soon over, and when he reached the bottom, the disgusting sound disappeared, replaced by the sound of mechanical transmission, and the floor between the bookshelves opened, and only a narrow dark compartment was opened from below, and at the bottom of the dark compartment was a bright ice mirror, from which Udil saw himself.

Even if you want to hide a person inside, this small space is completely insufficient.

Udir thought, though the discovery seemed meaningless, but he tried to see if he could hide in the confined space, and as he cautiously poked one foot down, he suddenly found that his foot had disappeared—straight through the mirror, as if the ice mirror were nothing.

He poked his foot further in, but he didn't touch the bottom, he took a deep breath, as if he was about to do before jumping into the breathless pool, and then jumped into the ice mirror.

In front of him was a narrow square room, the walls, the feet and the top of the head were made of ice mirrors, each of which exuded a cold air, each reflecting the appearance of Udir himself.

Beneath his feet was a real presence, his fingers tapping on the mirror as if touching a cold liquid, spreading out a circular ripple. The scene emerged little by little with the ripples, as if there was some magic in this mirror, which was stirred up by an unintentional move he had just made.

He saw in the mirror that the godless tribesmen were worshipping him, and from this angle, there was a feeling of overlooking all beings.

It wasn't an illusion, it was real, and if it weren't for Lisandro's appearance, I'm afraid they would continue to be hunted down.

He subconsciously stepped back, his figure leaning against the reflection in the mirror behind him, and he suddenly fell backwards, and the darkness engulfed him, as if it was another dim corridor.

Did you go back?

There was a wall in front of him, and he had come from here, but now there was no entrance.

Is it a trap? There was a damp smell in the air. The keen sense of smell bestowed upon him by the beast spirit told him that this was definitely not somewhere in the previous Glacier Guard Fortress, and that the aura seemed to be underground. Udir judged, flames bursting out of his palms, illuminating his surroundings.

At the end of the corridor was a spiral staircase, swallowed up by a dark staircase, and he didn't know what was waiting for him below. Udir slowly walked down the spiral staircase against the wall, the damp vapor different from the dryness of the surface, but it made him feel uneasy.

The staircase finally came to an end, and Udil hid sideways at the top of the staircase, his body clinging to it, and every step of the staircase was wary of whether there was a guard below, but his worries proved to be unnecessary, the place seemed to be inaccessible, in front of him was a narrow corridor, and the firelight magnified his shadow several times over, projecting it on the wall.

He had been walking in the darkness for a long time, and if someone in front of him had noticed his presence, he would have nowhere to hide. At the end of the hallway was an ancient door, unlocked and unprotected by a magic circle, and he easily opened it, seeping in a faint blue glow from behind it.

It appeared to be a library, with a faint blue magical light enveloping the room, rows of bookshelves on his right, and ancient tables and chairs for two people on his left.

Just looking at the books and pages Udir started to have a headache.

A vision appeared in the air, and Udir felt that he had seen something, but the thing flickered by, and he got closer, still not seeing what had just caught his eye, but when he approached with the Phoenix Flame in his palm, the scene shook in the rising heat wave, and resurfaced.

Two vague phantom figures sat on either side of the table, and Udir couldn't see the specific appearance of the two people, only that they were two women, one holding a book, and the other was waiting for something on the other side with some nervousness.

"Did you find it? Did you find it, Avarosa? The waiting man asked anxiously.

"Not yet, but there will definitely be a way, it will heal as before, trust me." She said, holding her hand with her other hand.

The illusion flickered, and the dust of the illusion flew to the other side of the bookshelf, and Udir chased after him, the phoenix fire causing them to manifest in front of him.

This time it was a high-pitched voice, and the woman tore the book to shreds. "No way! No more! You already knew that, didn't you? You've been lying to me, Avarossa! You think I'm funny, don't you? And now you're going to drive the watchers back into the abyss? ”

"They're not gods, they're demons, they've robbed us of our freedom, have you forgotten their promises, Lisandro? They won't cure your eyes at all! Their power is not a miracle at all, only destruction! It's like turning forests into permafrost today! ”

"Hah...... I'm not going to give up this power! Avarosa, how can I give up the power I have gained at all costs? You have nothing to lose, so you feel dispensable! If I lose the power of the watcher, I really have nothing! What if it can't be cured? Is it a god or a demon? I've lost the light forever for their power, and do you want me to give up the watcher's bounty? ”

"You're out of your mind, Lisandro."

"I see a rising power."

The dust of the illusion shattered, and between the dissipation of the illusion, Udir felt a powerful resonance of power, and he followed the connection of the power through a crumbling crack in the wall. Here he saw a broken statue of a phoenix, blood faintly visible from among the broken stones.

It's the idol of the Spirit of the Fire Phoenix!

"Beast Spirit Walker, you've finally found this place......
