Act II: The Eyes of Dying Chapter 79: Ikaria's Garden (Revised)
In the end, Resa and Icarus still chose to infiltrate, maybe with the strength of the two of them, they could force a breakthrough, but this would inevitably startle the snake, and the next rescue operation would face a lot of trouble.
These flies are not easy to deal with, and once they are pinned down by such a group of guys, it will be even more difficult to rescue Lycoris.
The two of them surveyed the huge worm-nest-shaped building, where to avoid the patrol of the insect swarm, and where to go so that their body would not be seen, these are all knowledge. As close as possible to the hive, whenever she saw a wriggling bug on the opposite side, Ressa's body would always have goosebumps. The chill in the spine will go straight to the spine, and the holes dotted with dense worms will definitely be a 'blessed land' for people with dense phobia.
From the front, it can be seen that the part of the nest that is actually encased in the sandworm is not large, but it looks relatively new in color, and it may be in the process of being transformed. Ressa and Icarus didn't pay much attention to this, they just wanted to get through here without being detected by the biters. After a few rounds of wandering, they really found a passage into the cave.
This is a relatively hidden passage, looking at the size of the hole, two people walking side by side will look very crowded, the two of them glanced at each other, Resa took the lead to walk in, the guide device in his hand has silently turned into the shape of a dragon's claw.
To be honest, the entrance of such a black hole will make anyone feel hairy in their hearts, but for Ressa, he is more concerned about whether this hole can find the Tsar's wormhole.
Finding two people in such a large city-state is actually no different from looking for a needle in a haystack.
I don't know how long I walked, but there was finally some light in front of Resa and Icarus, could this be an underground wormhole? Neither Resa nor Icarus were sure, at least literally, that the underground wormholes shouldn't have a light.
With the mentality of giving it a try, Resa and Icarus walked out of the intersection, and as Resa expected, it really didn't have anything to do with the wormhole.
Walking out of the passage, you will see a row of metal fences that still exude this faint luster, and if you go along the fence, you will come to a slightly dilapidated garden, after so many years, the blue enchantress in the garden is still tenaciously blooming, at the end of the sea of flowers, is a looming old lighthouse, the outer wall of the lighthouse has been covered with large patches of moss, telling people about the years it has experienced.
Judging by the traces, it is clear that no one has been here for a long, long time.
Ressa didn't go near the garden, for him, his primary goal was to find the Tsar's wormcave and then rescue Lycoris, which was his goal, and as for additional exploration, it wasn't what Ressa wanted.
As for whether Licoris would be here, Resa didn't think so, he had heard Icarus mention that the Tsar would bring tribute to the underground wormhole, which obviously did not match the underground or the wormhole.
Ressa turned around and planned to return to the inside of the passage to continue searching, but he was not interested in this small garden, but that did not mean that Icarus was not interested, and Ressa's figure gradually disappeared into the passage, but Icarus was standing at the door of the garden, and he could feel the excitement expressed by Ikalia in the pendant.
He was no stranger to this place, this was the garden where Ikaria lived when she was in Philheiz, and what he didn't expect was that the sea of flowers here was still in full bloom, exuding a mesmerizing pale blue color.
Icarus couldn't help but step into the courtyard, he fell into a wonderful state, the black fog attached to his body was dissipating rapidly, he had forgotten what he was going to do, and now he, just following his instinct, slowly approached the lighthouse, where Ikaria's bedroom was located.
On the other side, Ressa, who was as anxious as an ant on a hot pot, didn't notice that Icarus had been lost, and when he found out, he couldn't find the road he had just walked, Resa frowned, and tapped the personal terminal a few times, but there was no reaction at all.
"What is this guy doing with Icarus? Why did something go wrong at this juncture? Ressa reluctantly lowered his left hand, and the several passages in front of him seemed to him like the way he came from, but in this case, he really didn't dare to move around at will.
"What's going to be done now?" Originally, I wanted to gather the strength of the two, maybe I still have the strength to fight in the face of the Tsar, but now it's okay, I can't figure it out that it's the gourd baby who saves the grandfather: one by one.
After waiting for about ten minutes, there was still no news from the various passages behind him, Resa thought about it, and drew an arrow at the entrance of the passage he chose, as for whether Icarus could see it, it was unknown, this was already the best way Ressa could think of.
Speaking of Icarus, he had already entered the interior of the lighthouse at this time, and the first floor was facing the wooden door was a hall, and an ebony long table was quietly placed in the center of the hall, although it had been untouched for a long time, but the long table was still spotless.
Icarus didn't linger too much on the first floor, following the winding staircase, and soon he was on the second floor.
On the second floor was the study, and the familiar scent of smoke still lingered in this space, and Icarus's spirit shook slightly. The layout of the second floor is still very neat, as if someone is often cleaning, but now, how can there be a living person in Phil Haitz?
Icarus shook his head, throwing some ridiculous ideas out of his mind.
Maybe it's just some wonderful technique, Icarus thought.
Seeing that there wasn't much to explore on the second floor, Icarus walked towards the third floor, and he had a strange feeling that something was calling him.
On his chest, the pendant containing Ikaria's soul suddenly began to vibrate slightly, and Icarus was slightly stunned, and a translucent female figure had appeared beside him.
This was the first time that Ikaria's soul had appeared in front of him.
"Let's go!" The girl's soft voice sounded, like a warm spring breeze, blowing through Icarus's heart. She reached out her hands, took Icarus's arms, and walked towards the third floor.
Icarus was struck by lightning, in the past, Icaria's soul was basically not emotional, but this time............
The translucent maiden led him through the bedroom to the courtyard of the Purple Rose on the back of the ancient tower.
Time has passed, but it has not taken away a trace of this courtyard, and the sea of purple flowers has shrouded this place invisibly and shrouded in a veil of mystery.
"Ikaria ~~~~" Icarus looked at the elf-like girl and stopped talking, she is still in a soul state now, and if she continues to consume it like this, she wants to wait for her to really wake up but I don't know how much extra time it will take, yes, although I want to see her more, Icarus doesn't want her to consume too much soul energy.
Hearing Icarus's call, the girl looked back at him with a puzzled expression, the pure emotion in her eyes that she couldn't bear to continue.
"It's great to have you with you." Icarus took the girl's small hand, and the girl's translucent pretty face turned slightly red after noticing Icarus's actions.
"You've learned to talk nicely." The girl took Icarus's hand and looked at him seriously: "I know your worries, but there is a gift that I want to give to you with my own hands, let me be a little willful for once, okay?" ”
Feeling the glint of hope in the girl's eyes, Icarus didn't speak, just nodded heavily.
A smile appeared on the girl's face, and she took his hand, and the two of them walked towards the pavilion in the center of the courtyard, in which a crimson rose lay quietly on the stone table, emitting a faint crimson light.
