Chapter 2: The Valley of Grudge
Helios Calendar, Dawn on July 4, 4737, at the entrance of the town at dusk.
"Captain, here they are. Nana said.
Before Nana's voice fell, she saw a group of soldiers in the distance coming out of the mist, and slowly more and more soldiers came out of the mist, followed by the knights. The soldiers walked at the outskirts of the procession, followed by the knights, and in the middle was a carriage. After a short time, the team reached Leah, and then the soldiers in front of them lined up on both sides, and the carriage in the middle slowly drove in front of Leah, and a middle-aged man with a full beard and full armor walked out of the carriage.
"My name is Marga, and I am the envoy sent by His Royal Highness Cass Helios, the Third Prince, to the City of the Last Toe. The middle-aged man said.
"Twilight Town Garrison Knights Seventh Squad, Leah, Lina, Jalina, Rais, Elsa, and Nana have seen the envoy!"
"It's a pleasure to meet you, Gus, Rokas. After Marga finished speaking, two tall knights with swords and armor walked forward, and Marga continued: "Captain Leah, this is the captain of the two teams of escort knights, Gus and Rocas, and you will arrange their work for the rest of the trip." After speaking, he looked at the fog around him and muttered, "I hope the next road is free of these ghost fogs." ”
"Envoy Marga, I'm sorry to disappoint you, the fog is a feature of the Sealed Demon Mountains, except for the Sealed Demon City, there will be fog everywhere: it will emerge at sunset, dissipate at sunrise, and if the weather is bad, it will dissipate later. Guth and Rocas have arranged your men and guardians, we need to keep going, and we must enter the Valley of Grudges at sunrise. ”
......
At sunrise, the entrance to the Valley of Grudges.
The Valley of Grievances, the place where the spirits gather, where countless spirits gather, when the night falls and the fog is shrouded, the whole valley will be filled with spirits and ghosts, but now it is different, the whole valley is like a very low plain, the whole plain is only a few trees, the whole valley is divided in half by a large river, and there are some small pools scattered around.
"This is the Valley of Grudge, and it doesn't seem to be any different from the outside. Gus said, looking at the valley.
"Nothing different?" ...... Lina laughed. Then Lina pointed to the river in the middle and said, "Do you know that river?" Lina paused, and then continued, "That is the river of wraiths, and countless wraiths hide at the bottom of the river;
Gus looked at Lina suspiciously, obviously not knowing. At this time, Jielina walked away and patted Gus on the shoulder and said: "Because trees can hide resentful spirits, the garrison knights of the past generations will clean up in large numbers and use magic to make it impossible to grow trees here, and the trees left behind indicate that there are powerful resentful spirits living here, and those waterholes are also; Let's go, follow Leah. By this time Leah and the others had gone down to the valley, and the procession stopped, and Leah stood in front of the group and said to everyone: "Listen, everyone, from here is the Valley of Grudges, everyone should follow this road, do not go near the west side of the mountain, at least 10 meters away from the mountain wall, do not go near trees and waterholes, no matter what you hear or see, you must not leave this road." Leah paused, and then said: "Aisha and Nana lead the way, Gus and Rocas restrain the soldiers and team members to follow closely, and Lina and Jelina are responsible for breaking the back. Let's go!"
The procession walked slowly, and the holes in the mountain wall on the west side were punctuated with the sounds of wraiths, some of which were intoxicating songs, some of which were maddening seductions, and some of which were terrifying and intimidating. The knight is okay, the soldier is not good, from time to time there are soldiers who are crazy to walk towards the mountain wall, fortunately there are knights on the side to rescue the soldiers, but there are still accidents, several soldiers are swept into the cave of the mountain wall, and there is a frightening chewing sound. The team continued to move forward until it was almost sunset, when they finally arrived at the rest stop of the Valley of Grudges, the Cave of Light. The Holy Light Cave is full of golden divine recklessness. The cave is very large and can accommodate hundreds of people, and many small holes have been opened in the cave, which are like rooms for people to rest.
When the team all entered the Cave of Light, Leah walked up to everyone and said to everyone: "From now until sunrise tomorrow, everyone will rest in this cave, and you can't leave the cave. ”
"Yes, Captain. Aisha, Nana, Lina, and Jielina answered.
"Is it safe here?" Gus asked, shocked. "Five soldiers have already died, and more than 10 soldiers have been injured to varying degrees, and even the knights have several minor injuries, and if it's not safe here, we're afraid we'll ......" said this, except for Leah's team, almost everyone looked at Leah.
"Don't worry, this Holy Light Cave is full of Holy Light Array, and the Array Eye is a holy weapon, which makes the Holy Light Circle able to exert the Holy Grade Defense Ability, and this is an absolutely safe place in the Valley of Demons. Leah said.
"Then I'll be relieved!" Gus said. The others all sighed, relieved, and went to their own favorite places to rest.
