Chapter Seventy-Three: Returning Home
When Avnie awoke, the giant was standing beside her, seriously analyzing possible solutions.
The two talked to each other and learned about each other's experience just now, and they both sighed at the mystery and strangeness of time.
"So they've been struggling with the cracks of time?" said Evernie as she flipped through the book the giant handed her, "You just said it mentions the Book of Magic?"
The giant nodded: "Yes, instead of allowing them to die normally, the gap in time will continue to suffer incomprehensible pain, and maybe there is no time in the gap, if so, they are pain, and the pain is them." ”
"There's nothing in there?" asked Evnie, closing her notebook and looking up.
"Nope. ”
"It's impossible, it's the corpse of a god, there's no reason it will be destroyed, I saw the beast god wrapped in it and floated up. ”
"Perhaps......" the giant scratched his head, "maybe only the gods can truly control time, and anything can happen in such an unimaginable thing." ”
"Alas......" Aveney suddenly fell, "I don't know whether to be happy or sad now, this adventure was very exciting, but who would have thought that it could be so thrilling, I had discovered that time could also be studied, but there was nowhere to start, I had discovered magic, they used to be so enviable, but now they can only be trapped in a place where they can't even explain clearly." ”
"And that transparent figure, I can guarantee that he is also an outsider!"
"It's all outsiders. The giant interrupted, "Doomed outsiders, you go back to the past, you have achieved the past, and the past has made the future and present you, this is a closed loop, and the explanation is clear." ”
"Is it fatalistic?" Averne got up and patted Snowflake on the shoulder, "Sure enough, your brain is better suited for research, then...... Is there a way to get them back, or to stop suffering from this. ”
"Yes, completely ruined this ball of light, upset the balance, and everything was gone. ”
After the giant finished speaking, Aveney was silent for a long time, and finally picked up the notebook and said solemnly:
"Ruined it. ”
The giant then complied, and a drop of iron-gray liquid dripped from his fingertips, which landed on the roof and coalesced into a tetrahedron.
The two of them went back to the fifth floor through the hole in the roof and walked downstairs, but unfortunately, everything in this castle began**, and almost all the books on the fourth floor turned into powder.
Walking out of the gate and through the crowded buildings and squares, the two came to the bridgehead and looked back at the entire East Fort.
"Magic, I used to be obsessed with it, and even found the magic seal, but the magic seal is different from magic, it's a pity that those books are gone. ”
Evernie's eyes were a little red, and white mist came out of her mouth, and the memories of the gathering were so beautiful for the light that rushed into the air, and the magicians in the robes were so wise.
Those wise men who knew they might die, but still wanted to go back in time and correct the true meaning of magic......
Magic, the symbol that once ruled an era, may be the last magic academy, and it will eventually disappear into the long river of history.
"Time is such an interesting thing. Evnie suddenly laughed.
"This may be the last proof that magic exists. The giant reminded with his head down.
"No, the last magician alive in the world, let's go to him and destroy him when we get out of here. ”
The giant nodded, pulling Evernie onto the stone bridge with one hand and snapping his fingers with the other.
The figures of the two disappeared, and white light emanated from the depths of the castle complex, and countless fluctuations of goodwill and relief were mixed in, slowly dispersing between heaven and earth.
As the two of them stepped down the stone bridge again, Avenie looked down at the wooden sign that read 'Winter Castle' and frowned deeply.
"Sixteen hours, the vision on the bridge still hasn't changed, we walked on the bridge for ten minutes, and sixteen hours have passed outside. The giant spoke.
"Isn't the orb of light ruined?" said Evney, looking back, the huge blue orb of light was no longer visible above the castle complex.
“...... Maybe the ball of light is destroyed, but the cage that binds those souls is gone, but it doesn't mean that the source is the ball of light. ”
"Source...... Beast God!" Evnie took a breath abruptly, "The source is the Beast God!!"
The giant looked up at the sky: "It's a god......"
“...... Let's go, let's go to Hokuriku first and find the last magician. ”
Eventually, the two turned around and left, and in addition to their mixed feelings, they both remembered the 'rules' on the bridge.
I have already set foot on the man twice, the third time for ten days, the fourth time for seven years, and the fifth time...... 490,000 years.
............
Tria Standard Time, 3:30 a.m
Sost opened his eyes and looked at the ceiling illuminated by the moonlight, and couldn't help but sit down at his desk with his clothes draped and turn on the electric light.
There was a tremor on the bookshelf, and Yafanka floated out, stretched, and reluctantly made him a cup of coffee.
"Are you still thinking about last night's nightmare? You've been so busy lately that you're going to dream if you don't rest well, plus Ferrante...... It's also normal for you to dream of your former friends. Yafanka persuaded.
"No!" Sost shook his head, "Maybe the others are normal, but I see the future, you know, Yafanka, that's the future I've been thinking about, but I can't get a concrete answer. ”
"When I saw it in my dreams, I was sure that, yes, this was the future I imagined, a new world that I had never imagined...... It's only in my memory, but I can't describe the shock from my mouth. ”
Yafanka smiled and nodded, looking at Sost, who had suddenly become like a child, drawing random lines on the blank paper.
"Sost, you've changed. ”
"Huh?"
"In the past, you were like an adventurer, not to mention me, even you didn't know what you wanted, but you were always looking for excitement and a sense of achievement, but now you seem to have a goal. ”
"Hehehe...... Sost smiled and waved his hand, "how can it be as powerful as you say, I still don't know what I want, maybe it's still excitement and a sense of accomplishment?"
"But......" he pointed to his head, "the more you know, the more you want." ”
"So where do you start?"
"Let's start by changing the whole Tria with iron!" Ferrante said categorically, "By the way, Ferrante? ”
"Ferrante is home, I left the other day, when you were out of town, I forgot to tell you. ”
Sost was suddenly stunned, straightened up and looked at the moon outside the window, and muttered, "Go home...... This guy is not called ...... Forget it, it's hard to say whether it's good or bad. ”
............
It is the end of autumn, and winter seems to be coming early, although there is no wind and snow, but the weather is unusually dry and cold, which makes people very uncomfortable.
This is Sears' current environment, the sky is forever filled with clouds of soot and dust, and the air is visibly cloudy.
"Ahem, ahem, ahem......"
"Isn't it too dry, not to mention that you grew up by the sea, and even I am a little uncomfortable now. Ferrante patted Sophia on the back.
"Has this always been the case?" asked Sophia, looking up.
"It wasn't so serious before, although Sost's business has expanded here, whether it is the former Kaeya Empire or the current United States of Freedom, the Solan royal family seems to be suppressing Sost's company. ”
"They are afraid of following in the footsteps of the Kaiya Empire and being cut off by others, which is why they put forward the economic bill first, but they ignore the needs of the times. ”
"And what are you going to do this time?" Sophia looked into Ferrante's eyes.
"I'll take you to my father. ”
"It's that simple?"
"It's as simple as that. ”
Listening to Ferrante's reply, Sophia smiled and lowered her head, but the worry in her eyes still flickered.
Because at this moment, the true sea god Butterfly is still hiding in the depths of Sophia's soul and is regarded as an evil god by her.
