Chapter 42: The Secret of the City
The two of them had slowly approached the city from the steep high city, and although it was the early hours of the morning, there was a curfew in most of Valoran, but there were certainly guards on patrol. Pen fun and pavilion www.biquge.info
Judging from the footsteps of the guards, they should have something urgent to deal with, Jax was just about to follow, when he suddenly heard the sound of the door opening, and quickly hid back in the concealment, poking out a little to observe the situation outside.
The enthusiastic citizens of the day began to come out of their homes, dressed in solemn robes, as if they were priestly garments, but the materials were relatively coarse, and they began to move in one direction, as if the guards had just arrived.
What are they going to do?
But their appearance is creepy, and they are almost dragging their feet forward, with their heads bowed, like a group of walking dead.
The two quietly followed the flow of people and passed over the bustling bazaar during the day, but in the night it was as dead as a theater after the end of the show. Crowds poured through the bustling streets during the day and into the dark alleys.
That's where the so-called forbidden place is.
The huge city now looks extraordinarily unfamiliar, like a cobweb, and the periphery seems peaceful, but in the deepest depths of the alleys, something terrible lurks.
Jax realized that there was a great magic hidden in the depths of the alley, like a beacon calling the citizens to go, like soulless people, who only relied on some instinct to go in that direction.
The two of them followed closely behind, and the eye ornaments that appeared everywhere on the building seemed to be open eyes, monitoring their every move, which made people feel very uncomfortable.
They moved quietly along the rooftop, and the road ahead became darker and darker, and there was a huge crescent moon that slowly disappeared somewhere, and in this darkness they could only see the eyes inscribed on the building staring at them, emitting a faint icy blue glow.
The two Jax continued to move forward, keeping their speed very slow, almost relying on their bodies down, constantly groping their way through the eaves, and if they accidentally fell into the crowd with one foot in the air, the consequences would be unimaginable.
The light source appeared in front of him, it was also an ice blue color, as if it came from a piece of polar ice, and the light was already faint until the two of them got closer, only to find that it was a boulder totem, and the giant eyes were carved on it, and the tribesmen knelt around it, muttering strange words.
What kind of language is it?
The voice was as cold as the extreme ice, and people couldn't help but shudder, as if it were some kind of ancient language, and they unconsciously made this mysterious sound, surrounding the huge totem, and before that totem stood a figure, accepting the worship of the crowd.
It was a monster standing on the ice, with a slender human body, and it seemed to be able to distinguish the appearance of a human on her body, but it was obvious that it was not a human, dark broken ice spread from under her, and a pair of ice magic crowns were worn on her head, covering the position of the eyes, as if hiding some secret.
"That's ...... That'......" Udil froze in place, the burly man even began to tremble, memories from a long time ago gripped him tightly again.
- Run! It's her coming! Ice Witch!
The old man's voice was accompanied by the roar of the fire phoenix, and it stopped between him and the terrifying frost monster, and the beast spirit walker roared and rushed towards the witch on the ice......
"Let's go!" Udir gritted his teeth and ran the way he came, Jax didn't know what was happening, but in the godless eyes of the tribesmen below, a pair of icy blue eyes suddenly lit up, exuding a terrifying cold. It has been discovered, and it is not advisable to stay here for a long time!
The two of them ran through the dark passage, and the tribesmen with bright blue eyes behind them dragged their bodies towards them, but they were extremely fast, and there were bursts of gloomy roars from their mouths, which did not sound like they were human. Jax's lamppost danced and knocked out a few guys who had caught up.
They could no longer be called human, and as soon as the "blazing" blessed lamppost touched them, blue scars bloomed from their bodies.
Udir's voice sounded with a rapid gasp: "That's the Ice Witch...... It's her...... Be...... The Oldest Frost Demon ......"
At the end of the alley, they saw the dim lights of the neighborhood, as if the lost captain had finally seen a lighthouse in the distance, and at the corner of the street stood a slender figure, with a cold white satin robe painted with beautiful dark stripes, like her wide scarf covering her eyes.
"Lady Snow Prayer Dance, go quickly, it's dangerous!" Udir shouted.
"Don't be afraid, Mr. Udir." Lisandro just smiled lightly, "Nothing." ”
"I see...... It's too late to explain! He grabbed Lisandro's cold wrist and tried to take her with him, when he heard a voice behind him.
"Lord Snow Prayer Dance, just now these two people trespassed into the temple, made a lot of noise, and even hurt people!"
How can it be?
Udir and Jax turned back in surprise, and what they were chasing was not a puppet-like tribesman, there was no strange blue light in their eyes, they had blood and people, and they chased out with ordinary sticks in their hands, like a group of angry villagers who had been disturbed to worship the gods.
"How could it be ......" Udil gritted his teeth and looked at the scene in front of him.
All this is completely different from just now, is it some kind of illusion? But that's too real.
"These two are distinguished guests from afar, and they only strayed into the Holy Land without knowing it, and I will apologize to the patron saint of Freljord for their actions later." Lisandro bowed shallowly to the tribesmen present and said.
"Since Lady Snow Prayer Dance said so, forget it." One of the tribesmen began to speak, and the others followed suit, and then returned to the deep alley.
"I'm sorry, maybe I didn't explain to you that the alley leads to the temple, and if it weren't for the followers of the Ice Descendants, you might have seen some strange visions there, and some people have gone crazy because of this, so they have been forbidden to outsiders to enter."
Such an explanation does make sense.
"We're just curious, because the Snow Prayer Dance seems to be hiding a lot of things."
"Oh?" Lisandro smiled, "There are thousands of puzzles in the world, I just thought that if you didn't know, maybe you would save a lot of trouble, but I didn't expect it to be so." In that case, I can take the two of you to Ice Dome Peak to find out. Freljord may be dangerous, but as a snow dancer, I can still protect the two distinguished guests. ”
"It's good if you take him alone." Udir glanced at Jax, and the two of them briefly met their gazes, "I'm not interested in that kind of place, it's better to go back to sleep so late." ”
"That's fine, I'll send someone to keep you safe. After that, I will personally take Mr. Jax to solve your doubts, what do you think? ”
Jax nodded.
In fact, the matter of going to Ice Dome Peak was not so urgent, but he seemed to have a faint premonition in his heart, the secret hidden by this Ice Dome Peak must be found out as soon as possible, and there is no room for delay!
