in the hall

The final phase of reincarnation hell continues, and the number of people has been reduced again, from 23 to 18, and some people have partially crystallized their bodies, and at any time they may completely turn into amethyst statues and become food for the Adom crystal beast.

Aethermusloria walked back and forth between the people who were still alive, looking at this person from time to time, not at that person, not knowing what to compare.

Tianyue and Normanx watched from a short distance, and the two of them were also very curious about how many of these people would be able to meet the goddess alive and accept the goddess's final judgment.

Athomusloria walked back and forth a few times, but finally stayed at my place, looking ill-intentioned, and didn't know what bad idea she was thinking.

When Tianyue and Normanx saw her expression, they knew that she was playing some bad idea again, but neither of them thought about stopping her, after all, the way this person was now, it seemed that the probability of being able to pass was very low, and he couldn't offend the witch for him.

At this time, the limbs of my body have completely crystallized, and they have become amethyst hands and feet, which look very good, but I would rather be the same as they are now.

Seeing me in this state, Asomus Loria felt so happy that she hummed something as she walked back to the stone table and sat down again.

Tianyue and Normanx were very unhappy with her appearance, so they ignored her and let her continue alone, and the two of them went back and waited.

No one has woken up yet, and it is still going on, and basically everyone's body has begun to crystallize to a greater or lesser extent, and if it continues like this, sooner or later there will be people who are completely crystallized.

How many people will eventually be able to pass is still unknown.

The war between the Arassam Empire and the neighboring Republic of Noyam has been going on for two full years, with heavy casualties on both sides, many cities destroyed, and people living in misery, hoping for an early end to the war.

Since the end of the last meat grinder battle, the 36th Division I am in has basically been able to cancel the number. The troops have basically been killed and wounded, and the main command personnel have all been killed in battle, and the most basic conditions for maintaining a unit can no longer be maintained.

After discussion at the headquarters, it was decided that the remnants of the 36th Division, which had suffered heavy losses, and some of the new recruits would be formed into a mixed brigade, which would rest in the rear for a month, and then go to the next important enemy stronghold to support there.

A month later, we embarked on a new journey.

It was the largest military fortress in front of the capital defense line of the Republic of Noahm, and once we broke through this fortress, we would be able to reach the last destination in no time.

This time, a large force of 500,000 troops was put in, ready to conquer this place in twenty days, and then pointed directly at the enemy's most rearguard.

The other countries have always been neutral about the war that has taken place, but now, they can't continue to do so, and they are all baring their fangs and waiting for an opportunity.

The Imperial Supreme Command is actually very worried about those countries, and if it continues to be consumed like this, I don't know if it can cope with the sudden attack of those countries.

The next battle of the fortress began, the scene was very tragic, more brutal than the last meat grinder battle, the two sides continued to fight fiercely, and the casualty number rose sharply, with no sign of stopping.

The original battle plan was useless, the enemy's defenses were stronger than the intelligence said, and twenty days was simply not enough.

Groups of comrades-in-arms rushed to the fortress, but only a few were able to come back, and most of them had already died in front of the fortress.

Fast forward a month, and we still haven't been able to conquer the fortress, and we are still desperately attacking.

A week later, we received very bad news. The surrounding nations finally made a move, gathering their armies to launch a fierce and sudden attack on the Empire.

Over the next year and a half, our area of activity was reduced little by little, and we gradually began to lose the territory of the Empire.

Faced with this situation, the Supreme Command decided to abandon Nyam's war and retreat to the country on all fronts to resist the attacks of those countries. However, although we did not intend to continue the fight with Noahm, Noah was unwilling, believing that the time had come to counterattack, and to gather all the troops he could gather to pursue us.

Half a year later, one-fifth of the empire was occupied, and soldiers began to appear among us who could not stand the blow and collapsed and committed suicide.

In the ensuing quarters, the empire had to sign humiliating treaties with those countries, at great cost, to obtain an armistice.

In the last battle, I was hit by shrapnel from a shell in my waist and eventually left the battlefield paralyzed in the lower half of my body.

Back in his hometown, which had been completely destroyed by the war, his family had either died or had fled, leaving no correspondence addresses behind.

After the war, I lived alone on the ruins, watching the people slowly rebuild the place, and never left it once until I died.

After I died, I fell into complete darkness again, and accepting those tragic experiences stimulated me. It was only a matter of time before the crystallized area gradually spread to the torso, and to the head.

I don't know how long it has been, but I woke up again and found myself in a cave, shining a flashlight in front of me.

There are also some points of light moving not far away, indicating that there are other people here.

Looking ahead, I thought that I was exploring a mysterious cave, and I had been in for three days, and I still hadn't seen the end, and I didn't know where the road would lead.

Realizing that he was lagging behind the rest of the line, he trotted after him so that he would not be left behind.

Catching up, the nine people in front of him were all fully armed, wearing the mercenaries' favorite combat clothing, and a few others were carrying some heavy equipment.

Seeing me follow, a middle-aged man asked me. "Mike, keep up, don't get lost. There are many forks in the road here, so be careful not to get trapped inside. ”

"Hmm!" I was grateful for his reminder and responded. "Don't worry, Soft. I'll be careful, there will be no surprises. After a pause, he asked tentatively. Soft, what the hell are we looking for here? It's been three days, and we haven't reached our destination yet, so we're all going to be rats, burrowing around in the caves. ”

"Huh!" Soft was amused by my analogy, and said with a straight face. "Don't be overly knowledgeable if you shouldn't know the truth, it's easy to get into trouble. Okay, let's hurry up. ”

"If you don't say it, you won't say it, and when you get to the place, you can know the way, but it's uncomfortable to be suffocated." I looked at the dark cave and said with emotion.

Next, we continue to move forward in this cave, looking for something.

There was no light at all, it was completely engulfed in darkness. A small stream flows through the cavern, and there are creatures that are not found outside, as well as some plants and animals that live here, and they are perfectly adapted to the dark environment. The sudden appearance of the light startled the animals, and they all fled from the darkness as quickly as possible.

It's been three days, and I've traveled an unknown amount of distance outside. So far, I haven't encountered any large creatures, and I don't think I'll ever encounter any dangerous situations, so I walked around the back of the tower and watched the strange ecology here.

Stop to rest, eat some food, and move on outside.

A man suddenly ran up to me and said quickly. "Mike, you help me with the equipment, my brother has an upset stomach, I want to go and make it easier, you tell Alex. Please, Mike. ”

"Okay, hurry up." Seeing his appearance, I replied cheerfully. "Kaunas, you know Alex's temper, don't make him angry."

"Great! I know that I thank you. Kaunas hurried away without finishing his sentence, and ran into a small cave.

I quickly ran to the front and reported to a young man in his twenties who was checking the map from time to time. "Alex, wait a minute. Kaunas had an upset stomach and wanted to stop for a while, so he asked me to tell you and let us wait for him for a while. ”

"What, it's this kid again." As soon as Alex heard what I said, he immediately became very unhappy. "Forget it this time, you tell him later, if it's like this next time, don't blame me for leaving him."

"Yes, Alex, I'll tell him." I didn't expect Alex to say this, and I'm a little worried about Kaunas, maybe I'm going to be left in this place.

Due to Kaunas, we will stay here for the time being, and when Kaunas returns, we will continue on our way.

Alex sat alone on a raised rock, carefully examining a parchment roll in his hand.

There are many things depicted on it, including the passage where we are now. There's also an X mark, which is supposed to be where the target is.

The current position is still a considerable distance from the target's location, and it is only a fifth of the way to cover it in three days, and there will be unknown dangers in the future, and I don't know what the road will be.

Alex carefully compared the specific parameters and came up with some information. For this expedition, which he had been preparing for more than twelve years, reaching his destination no matter what.

No one knows the specific situation now, so they can only slowly explore and move forward little by little, and as long as they successfully reach their destination, everything will be known at that time.

Alex withdrew the parchment roll and sighed to himself. "Sister, I will definitely find that legendary city, I will. I will definitely prove that my sister is right, they are all philistine, and my sister is the real historian. ”
