Alice walked through the narrow passage to the exit, the strong sunlight outside made her can't help but squint her eyes, reaching out to cover her forehead, the sunlight passed through the white arm, the skin was almost transparent, and the edges were refracted with the reddish of blood.

Two military black trench coats walked up to each other, gently swept the fallen leaves from their shoulders, and only asked, "Miss Alice?" ”

Alice watched the golden leaves fall, and was slightly stunned, suddenly realizing that autumn was quietly coming—it was this season, and a feeling twisted and turned in her heart, and everything was like a world away.

She looked up and stared at the sky, it was the first sunny day after the storm, the blue sky of Fenris, curved in an arc at the end of the vision, clean and bright, with only faint clouds.

She withdrew her gaze, her eyes spotless, and she only nodded very calmly.

The military man replied politely, "Then please cooperate with us and give us your magic furnace, weapons, starlight materials, and communication equipment." ”

Alice did not resist or explain, but only did what she said, watching her things be taken away one by one. She thought silently, maybe she was really a sinner, because if it weren't for herself, how could so many people have died, and as for Mr. Eddard, he wouldn't be ......

The military people raised their heads, and suddenly saw the girl's pale face, and they were stunned and shed tears.

They paused for a moment, looked at each other, and then comforted: "Miss Alice, please don't worry, this is just to assist in the investigation, if you are really coerced by Toragotos, we will prove your innocence." ”

The girl choked back her tears and only smiled slightly—what if she could prove her innocence, and what she had done wrong, could she redeem it?

In the shadow of the privet tree, Alyssa clasped her hands and watched her sister get into the carriage, and the knights of the military escorted the carriage slowly, and she couldn't help but subconsciously take a step forward. But Sophie grabbed her from behind and whispered, "Don't worry, the military will keep her safe." ”

And the princess of Silver Veslan looked at her: "It's you, Toragotos, maybe you will retaliate, and in the meantime, we will keep you safe." ”

"Why you, I have nothing to do with Silver Vislain."

"It's a commission from the military," Sophie sighed and replied, "but it's not all, it's also my promise to Eddard." ”

Alyssa jerked back and asked, "Sophie, Mr. Eddard, ...... him?" ”

Sophie only shook her head and looked silently at the horizon. "Wait for news from Stargate—" After a few moments, she spoke softly.

Alyssa bit her lip and fell silent.

Not far away, in the woods, a red-haired girl walked out of it with a halberd in her hand. She looked at Sophie, and the two looked at each other as if they had been separated for a long time, and Akane did not speak, but Sophie had read her meaning from the girl's apologetic gaze.

They suffered heavy losses.

Seven of them remained in the darkness forever, including her deputy, who was also seriously injured by the ink dyeing green bamboo, and two of the three priests were unable to participate in the subsequent activities for a month, and after this battle, the team was afraid that it would be split and reorganized.

But in any case, there was one man who fulfilled his promise, brought them out, and saved everyone here.

Except for himself—

She had learned everything from the footage they had taken. The flash above the altar, and the obelisk that slowly sank into the ground, took away the calm and fearless young face, but this scene may forever become a monument, recorded in the hearts of everyone who experienced it.

After that incident, the people of Cloudport toppled the minaret of Torragotos, which had broken once in the earthquake, but the remnants were bulldozed, and the kingdom's newly appointed consul had decided to erect a statue on its original site.

The statue must have had a beautiful silver mask, a long trench coat, a childish half of a face, and his—the clockwork elves, the fire djinn, who had now become a symbol of Kaorin-Ishurian's courage.

As for the fall of the Blood Oath, it was naturally expected.

With the intervention of the military and relevant government departments, the club managers were controlled at the first time, but there were still three main culprits who absconded in fear of crime.

What made the above even more infuriating was that in Aitalia, one-third of the top of the Blood Oath still mysteriously disappeared after the incident, and although the rest of the people were under control, most of them did not know the reason for the incident.

The search and investigation are still in full swing, and they are officially combined with the mysterious disappearance of the Rainhearers Club.

Although the review has shown that the Blood Oath has little to do with Torragotos's plan, it is only that the truth of the plan on the side of the night lizards has been revealed, and it is also enough for them to drink a pot and resurrect an evil god, which is also a serious violation of the "Stargate Declaration" in any case.

This is probably the most dramatic scene of Fenris in the past half a month, the dark clouds that originally covered the sky with one hand have quietly dissipated from the heads of the large and small guilds on this island. And the sudden disappearance of Torragotos has also left too much of a power vacuum in the region.

These large and small guilds, adventure parties, which were praised for their bravery in this disaster, have been actively expanding since then.

The rain listener is one of them.

In the end, the rain listeners led by Grant were proven to have nothing to do with the conspiracy and did not participate in Torragotos's plan, and these people who were abandoned by the original guild were really waiting for a glimmer of life in the final - in the disintegration of the blood oath.

Although they are no longer the original rain listeners, Grant officially announced that the new rain listeners will be a free guild at the ceremony of the guild rebuilding half a month later.

And the Storm Brigade, naturally, was preserved from this.

It's just that they have lost too much in this disaster, and after leaving a letter of resignation, Lonely White has officially left the Rainlistener, and he seems to have found something lost in that young man, prompting him to officially embark on a journey to find everything he had lost.

He's nearing retirement, and maybe he doesn't have much time left.

And the twin sisters, naturally, also left the guild, not only of their own volition, because of Alice's actions, the rain listeners could not tolerate their existence. For the sake of her sister, Alyssa can only make this choice.

In the darkness, there was a rustling sound.

This underground world, once noisy, almost changed the fate of the entire Fenris.

But now, it is back in peace, and the conceivable future, as the Dragon's Trial is a thing of the past, and year after year it will be buried again in dust and cobwebs, and no one will ever set foot again.

There may be some ancient visitors, but their footprints will not leave too many traces on the ruins of this civilization, and then time flies, and finally the moment will come, and the place will be completely reduced to sand and dust.

People can no longer see what it used to be.

The box sat on top of a ruin, the beautiful hat had been lost in the chaos of the time, the hair was like withered grass, the mess had not been sorted out for many days, although he still wore a mask, but the chin was black and white, like a big flower face.

He held his communication crystal and listened to the rustling voice coming from inside: "You really don't plan to go back to the Tempest Brigade, I asked Grant, and he is still willing to accept you." ”

In the channel, it was the voice of the lonely white field, and he seemed very calm, as before.

"I'm going to wait a little longer," the box smiled, a mouthful of white teeth, but it was striking in the darkness: "This side is much more exciting than yours, and besides, whether the captain lives or dies, there must be a result." He scratched his head, "Parker and I are looking for him down here, and there's no news from the stargate, I have a hunch, you know-"

"This is in line with your temperament," Gu Bai Zhiye smiled, listening to the newcomer he brought out in the past, calling someone else's captain, but when he thought of that big boy, he didn't have any dissatisfaction in his heart, this was originally his choice, but-

He sighed: "I will not interfere with your choices, box, you can go the way you want to go, but everyone must be responsible for their own choices." ”

Lonely White Field's words were very serious.

The box also fell silent for a rare moment, and nodded.

He silently closed the communicator and looked ahead, where in the darkness, he didn't know whether it was the road ahead or the future, but everything that day, the broken island, the dark dragon with its wings, the battle with the night lizards, and the flash of light on the altar, and finally the obelisk that slowly sank into the ground, were all deeply engraved in his heart.

This is exactly the life he wants.

In the distance, Parker suddenly lifted a pile of rubble and climbed up from below, and in half a month, the image of this Paparal man successfully transformed from a crossbow shooter, a kitchen wanderer, to a coal worker.

Still a chubby coal worker.

He got up, his eyes widened with rage, and he jumped up and down to the box and shouted, "Damn it, poor Paparal, you cunning fellow, you are lazy again!" ”

"I didn't," the box shook the communication crystal in his hand, "someone sent me a message." ”

"Who?"

"You don't know."

"Then you're lazy——!"

The box pulled the stand-up collar, ignored the guy's words, and asked, "Did you find anything down there?" ”

Parker sighed rarely, and shook his head: "There's nothing down there, there's no bottom, there's no way down, there's not even a monster, I hate this place, I'm going to be crazy if I stay any longer." ”

"It's okay, you don't have to stay in this place." The box replied.

"What?"

"There's news from Miss Atira, she's telling us to go back to Cloud Harbor first."

"Found that guy?" The Paparal man immediately asked in surprise.

The box shook his head: "Azure didn't say it, and I don't know - maybe it's something else, and it's not a way for us to stay in this place all the time." ”

"It's not just a way," Parker said aloud, "it's not a way at all, and thankfully, I can finally get out of this hellish place." ”

The box stood up, and between the stand-up collar and the mask, a pair of eyes of different colors were looking at the little man: "Parker, don't you want to find him?" ”

Parker was slightly stunned, and subconsciously shook his head: "That's not it, that guy is still good, but you know...... Some things are like this, have I told you about my adventures in the Giant Tree Hills, it is an equally long story, swords and fires, vicious dragons—I've seen a lot of things like that. ”

The box looked at him, not knowing who was more stupid between himself and the other party, he shook his head, and turned and walked back.

The Paparals shouted and shouted behind them, and the two of them walked through the darkness of the earth in the direction they had left. Maybe after them, many years from now, no one will set foot in this place again.

But people will not forget what happened here on that day of the year.

And beneath the deeper darkness there—

A pair of eyes were opening their gaze, and in the darkness, a pair of narrow prismatic pupils were revealed, which were embedded between the gray scales, and as soon as they came to their senses, they already looked unusually calm.

Tenaric felt something licking his face, and he reached out to block it, recognizing his close companion, its mount, Bloodfang, though it didn't know how the other had infiltrated the ground and found itself.

However, in the jungles of the Far South, there is always a mysterious connection between this lizard and its owner, and the war lizards have long taken it for granted.

"You saved me again, Bloodfang." Tenaric sizzled.

It got up from the ground, listening to the noisy sounds of Parker and the box coming from above, and it had already made out the two men, but it didn't intend to go up to recognize them. It only half-crouched on the ground and gently patted its companion's head.

Tenaric silently gazed into the dark and gloomy depths of the mist, where the altar and obelisk could still be seen beneath the abyss, and he said to himself, "Perhaps I have understood what the prophet E-Atta meant, go, Bloodfang, and let us go home." ”

"It's all over here, and I think I'm ready to go to the Dragonblood Trial."

Bloodtooth let out a low sound, as if in response to its words.

Tenaric nodded, "Yes, we'll be back, back to the human world - only then, everything will no longer be the same." ”

"Brother man, may the moon and the stars be with you, and on the shining sea, we will once again fight side by side."

It straightened up.

One last glance at the depths of the abyss.

……

Xingmen Port, inside the Emergency Command Center.

Ambassador Liao rubbed his forehead, he looked up and looked out the window at the halo left by the sun's rays on the edge of the blue planet - the ancient home planet of mankind, which has been repeated day after day for billions of years.

It was a new day in the Eastern Hemisphere.

From morning to dusk, a blue ocean is drawn out, dotted with islands, and an old and new yellow-green continent, where his gaze is fixed for a long time, and everyone will have a special affection for their homeland.

That's where people come from, and maybe it's where souls return in the future.

The Chosen One's Soul Retreats is the hall outside the glass window on the other side—next to the circular Star Gate, which Westerners like to call Valhalla, Valhalla, or the Golden Palace.

But these people don't believe in ghosts and gods, but only ask about their hearts.

Ambassador Liao looked at it for a while, then turned his head back, took a moment to rest, and then looked at the information in his hand before asking, "Is it true?" ”

The men nodded.

"Yes, Mr. Ambassador, we can't contact each other for the time being—and apart from the loss of communication ID, we didn't actually find Mr. Char among all the Starlight device ID IDs in the underground at that time."

"Then why didn't you tell me at the time?"

Several people looked at each other.

"We reported it at the time, Mr. Ambassador, but because it was not the highest priority, because of the emergency situation at the time, it was delayed by the Intelligence Analysis Division."

Ambassador Liao took the materials in his hand and walked back and forth two steps.

Then he turned around and asked, "Silver Vislan, Blood Oath, Rainhearer, is there any news from the Jeffrey Redcoats?" ”

"The silver Vislan also met the other party in the trial, and the relationship with the other party is limited to one transaction, and the princess of the silver Vislan also claims to not know much about the other party."

"The Rainman doesn't know much more than we do, they are a cooperative relationship, and they only know that the other party is a powerful alchemist and a combat craftsman. The Blood Oath knew even less, they had little to no contact with Mr. Char, and judging from the results of the interrogation, it seemed that the other party was not lying. ”

"As for the Jeffrey Redcoats......"

A few people looked a little embarrassed.

Ambassador Liao sighed, naturally knowing what was going on, the Jeffreyt Redcoats were not the same as the Blood Oath, they were not the direct handlers of the Night Lizard Project, they just borrowed the relationship of the Blood Oath.

Although everyone knows what is going on, but from the rules of the Super Athletic League, such a prevarication is also reasonable, of course, punishment is essential, at least a year ban from participating in various competitions and competitions, for the rising Jeffrey Redcoats is a big blow.

The resignation and punishment of some of these officials have nothing to do with their military, and the Super Athletic League has been using commercial practices as an excuse to strictly prevent the military from meddling in more areas, and they can only choose a more curvilinear way to negotiate some things.

And the punishment of the Jeffrey Redcoat team is like this, not to mention the BBK in the back, in the final analysis, the redcoat team is just a branch of BBK in the first world, which may affect their progress in ranking among the top ten guilds, but in general, it will not shake its status too much.

The guilds related to Silver Vislan and Elite and the Crown of the Silver Forest may have some countermeasures, but on the other hand, the forces behind the descendants of Flor are also not easy to mess with, Ambassador Liao understands in his heart that the division within the domestic Super Athletic League is like this, and Xingmen Port can put forward some guidance, but the specific situation also depends on the game of all parties behind it.

Before the results are out, it is naturally unlikely that the Jeffrey Redcoats will cooperate with their investigation, not to mention that there must be guild interests behind this.

He could only retreat: "What about the twin sisters?" ”

"Miss Alyssa said a little more, only that Mr. Char didn't seem to be a native of Fenris, but it wasn't clear where she came from, but we suspect she wasn't telling the truth."

"As for Miss Alice, she doesn't know much more than the other rain listeners."

Ambassador Liao was silent for a moment, and then asked, "Are all his team members Silver Vislan?" ”

"Not exactly."

"That Andasok lizard, it seems, is aboriginous. Another Paparal, who is not a player from our Chinese division, cannot get the number ID of the other party for the time being, and is applying to the EU side for coordination. ”

"There is also a teenager who seems to be a reserve member of the Rainhearer Brigade, but the other party does not have a numbered ID, we have investigated, and entered Xingmen Port through private means through the guild, and we haven't had time to file it with us yet."

"Mr. Ambassador, you know that there are a lot of such things, and we have repeatedly banned them, and the high-level Rainlistener who was originally in charge of this matter has disappeared, and now the Super Athletic League can't come up with a way to punish it."

Ambassador Liao could only put the materials in his hand on the table.

"Where's the news from Stargate?"

"There is no news yet, Mr. Ambassador," the other party replied, "During the busy period of the Star Gate, it usually takes half a month to a month to sort out the identity, and although we have sent additional personnel, we have not yet found the person who came out of the Star Gate at that time. ”

They added: "But as long as those people remain in the counseling area, I believe that soon we will have a result." ”

"Then first investigate the ships that have recently left the Rainbow Bay area," replied Ambassador Liao, "since Mr. Char is not a native of Fenris, he must have left the Rainbow Bay area on the eve of the storm to coordinate with the Kaorin-Ishurian Artisan Craftsmen Association to investigate the identity of every ship that left the port at that time." ”

Everyone nodded, and then turned to leave.

Ambassador Liao only looked at the back of them leaving, but he was thinking about more things in his heart, the military had already issued a death order to find the boy named Char, but in the half a month between the two worlds, since the other party sank into the ground with the altar, there has been no news.

He did not appear in Aitaria or Stargate Harbor again, and even the military organized people to search underground, but to no avail.

At this point, Charter City is holding back a large number of manpower, and the reconstruction of Cloud Harbor also needs manpower, and the kingdom of Kaurin-Ishurian has cooperated more closely with the state after this incident.

For this reason, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs has also issued instructions to participate in the reconstruction of Fenris.

Coupled with the trouble a month ago, the manpower of Xingmen Port also seemed to be stretched thin for a while.

What an eventful season, Ambassador Liao couldn't help but sigh lightly.

……

It was as if he had woken up from a long dream, and Fang Yu remembered that he had seen so many things in that long dream, from the battle of the elven ruins, to the life-and-death struggle of Dorifin, to the underground of Fenris, the ancient obelisk and the conspiracy behind everything.

The memory became clear in this moment, first Torragotos's hideous face, and Sarutaka's grim smile, which seemed to merge into one in the fog and pounced on him.

Fang Yu felt that he couldn't move, and it seemed that he could only watch all this happen.

Then he was shocked to see a golden light rise from the darkness.

And at the center of that golden light was a sparkling and burning pupil.

It seemed to scream sharply at him:

"Wait, human, one day, you will fall into my hands!"

It was Nicol Bolas's voice.

And the golden light seemed to turn into a bonfire in an instant, and between the rising sparks, the plover seemed to return to the night of the traveler's rest, and saw Mazak's resolute face behind it.

He reached out and handed him the ring that flowed like lava.

"Take it with you and find someone."

It was the Ring of Golden Flame.

Fang Yu was startled, and then he fell from his dream, as if he had opened his eyes from a cloud of mist—and then he saw the sunshine flowing in, and the beautiful, green window lattice, which seemed to be a quiet afternoon.

The first thing he saw was the system interface that lit up by himself.

There's still a line of prompt above:

'The Seeing and Hearing quest is completed, and 78,320 points of cognitive experience are gained. ’

However, there was no upper menu or name of the mission, only a hint that he had participated in the experience, and Fang Yu was almost in a trance before realizing why—he was not the main participant in the mission.

He recalled everything that had happened before, and in a vague way, he vaguely felt that the main participants in the mission might be two people.

One is Alice.

One is Tenarek.

Then he gradually came back to his senses, only to see that behind the system menu, there was a face that was somewhat suffocatingly beautiful.

It was silver hair, shining against the afternoon sun; A pair of long, pointed ears, silver fur, trembled slightly, and the girl was looking at him, and between the silver eyes like a long poem—

Fang Yu once again saw the kind of elegance and peace that he was extremely familiar with, but the latter only smiled slightly, and asked in his familiar tone:

"Awake?"

Fang Plover opened its mouth wide.

At that moment, he thought he was still in a dream.

"It was Xiaobai who saved you." Mia fiddled with her pointed ears and replied softly, "And, of course, your beautiful Miss Ship Officer—"

"But, you...... How did it end up here? ”

……
