"Doriphin is special." Kita sat on the bed wrapped in a blanket, her feet side by side, her tiny hands holding a cup of steaming water, between her knees and her chest. Surrounded by everyone, some did not dare to look up, but whispered: "People call it the shadow of the past, because there are many places where the shadow of the past lingers. ”

She had been awake for a while, and only vaguely remembered a vague memory of the time before she woke up, when Sylvid and Fang took turns taking care of her.

And when I thought that I was still nested in someone else's bed, I couldn't help but shrink my neck and blush.

Fortunately, others don't seem to be aware of this

The small room was filled with almost everyone at the moment, including Fang, Attila, Red, Luo Yu, Sky Blue, and Shesta except for Sylvide. So much so that Parker could only sit on the table and put his two little short legs outside.

Chris stood outside the door, watching the scene with some curiosity.

In fact, the young man had almost been stunned when he saw Sylvid earlier. I probably didn't expect that there were such good-looking people in this world, and until this time, the other party left for a long time, and he didn't come back to his senses.

"How?" The lionman stood beside him, turned his head to the young man and bared his teeth and showed a 'good-natured' smile: "Haven't you ever seen such a good-looking human chick?" ”

"Ah, I'm not, my lord," Chris was startled, and hurriedly waved his hand to explain, how could he dare to think of a noble girl.

Red patted him on the shoulder with his huge paw and shook his head, "No explanation, young man, she's not interested in you Well, at least for now, this human chick has only had a bad idea of some little fool." ”

"Little fool?" Chris subconsciously looked in the direction.

He looked back at the approving look in the lionman's pale silver eyes, and couldn't help but smack his tongue in his heart, thinking that Lord Ed is really amazing, not only in the continental league.

In reality, it's just as enviable

Of course, Fang didn't know anything about the dirty thoughts of these two people, and he was about to open his mouth to ask Ji Ta, "The shadow of the past? ”

Kita nodded lightly on the bed.

Everyone came because of her sudden awakening.

As for Chris, he was brought over by the way because he was answering Fang's question before. It's just that I didn't expect this little girl to say such a thing after hearing what he said.

He had heard that the other party was a naturalist. But Chris was skeptical, not to mention the naturalists, but the scholars he had met in Elpahim, big and small, were all bearded old pedants.

And at this time, Kita's gaze came: "Mr. Chris...... You should know something, right? ”

The young man was startled and hurriedly nodded. "Miss Kitta is right, Doriphine is a strange place, and the workers often say that it is haunted. My father had always warned me not to let anyone from the lumberyard come near the place, even though ours was quite close to it. ”

"Haunted?"

"It's probably not a good idea to say it's haunted," replied Chris, with some distress, "you should know that it's a town that has been abandoned for years, but it's always a place like it used to be, and occasionally a neighborhood suddenly appears in the middle of the ruins, as if it were a few decades ago, and people are still wearing the clothes of that era, living in the streets as if nothing had changed." ”

"Of course." The young man replied, "I've only heard about it, I've never been to that place myself, but we often have some adventurers in our lumberyards, and I've heard these rumors from them, my lords." ”

"Is it like a mirage?" Azure asked.

"It's not quite accurate to say it's a mirage, Sister Furi." Kita coughed twice and replied in a low voice, "Because in these shadows of the past, everything is real, and it is said that there are adventurers who have done business with the people inside, and the things they bought and the money they have received have not disappeared after leaving Dorifin. ”

"What?" Tianlan's eyes widened: "Could it be that those neighborhoods and people are real, they have lived in that ruins for decades, how is this possible?" ”

"Frey," Attila reminded helplessly, as she was a little overwhelmed by the little girl's brain. "Don't interrupt Kita all the time."

"Oh," Tianlan stuck out her tongue in embarrassment.

But this time it wasn't Kita who answered, it was Chris.

The young man shook his head and said, "That's not the case, Miss Sky Blue. There were absolutely no inhabitants in that ruin, as I can attestify, and in fact it only had that for a few days of the month, and the rest of the time it was just a dead city. ”

"How many days?"

"Yes, a few days, because it must have something to do with the third thing in Doriphine."

"The third thing?" Fang couldn't help asking.

"Brother Ed," Kita tugged at his sleeve, looking a little struggling. "All the visions in Doriphon City are actually generated around three special objects in this ruin, which are what people call Dorifin's three things."

The girl had just recovered from her injuries, so she was struggling. As soon as he finished saying this, he gasped slightly, and his face was as white as a piece of paper.

Fang hurriedly helped her. Attila hurriedly spoke: "Kita, don't force yourself so much, Dorifin, we can go at any time, your top priority now is to heal your injuries." ”

But Kita shook her head, a blush appearing on her white face. "I'm fine, Miss Attila. Brother Ed, could you please give me a little help like that, I still have something to say. ”

Attila looked at her, then at Fang. Seeing the latter nodding, she reminded: "Do what you can." ”

The little girl smiled very warmly.

"Dorifin's third object, or Dorifin's three, is the mark of martyrdom of the Vine Leaf and the Lady's Inn, the blade of vanity of victory in Grey Oak Square...... and, the scepter of arrogance of the ignorant at the town hall. ”

"Blade of False Victory?" Fang was stunned for a moment and asked, "I seem to have heard of this name." ”

"This is a very famous weapon, the best two-handed sword type magic guide below level seventeen, and the quality is as high as C++ level. Brother Ed must have seen the name in the community's market, where it was actually made in the ruined town of Dorifin. ”

She smiled a little mysteriously, and this smile with small dimples fell into Fang's eyes, which really resembled Sylvide's smile. It's like a small aristocratic girl, but with a little more pride.

And you will never see such a smug look on Sylvid's face

"You must be surprised, why would a C++ class magic guide be produced in an abandoned town?"

"That's normal," Parker replied with a big grin, "Fight the monsters, there must be some boss in this town!" ”

Before he finished speaking, he ate Tianlan and shuddered. The little French girl said angrily, "Miss Atira said, don't interrupt Kita's words casually. Also, are you getting dizzy from playing games? Where did Attaria get what equipment drops? ”

The poor Paparal screamed, clutching a large bag on his forehead and daring to speak in anger.

Fang glared at the two of them before continuing to ask, "This magic guide is also available in the 'market' here?" ”

"No, sir," Chris chimed in. "Dorifin's three objects are different from other things here, and their place is always fixed. The imprint of fidelity is on the bedside table in a room on the third floor of the Lady Fujiba Hotel, and the sword of vanity of victory is inserted under the broken statue pedestal in Grey Oak SquareAs for the Scepter of Arrogance of the Ignorant, it is a weapon in the hands of a ghost in the town hall, and only by killing that ghost will it fall......"

As he spoke, he looked at Tianlan cautiously, as if he was afraid that after he finished the last sentence, he would also be hit in the head for a moment.

Fortunately, Tianlan is not such an unreasonable person, but she rolled her eyes angrily. "Falling from the hand of a humanoid creature, that's not called a drop, that's called exploding equipment"

She commented professionally, in the jargon of a game.

Kita gave Sky Blue a somewhat amused look before continuing, "In fact, every time these three items are taken away by the adventurers, all of Dorifin's illusions will disappear into nothingness and turn into a dead city again. It wasn't until three months later, on the night of the full moon, when the moonlight broke through the clouds and shone on the land again, that the vision resurfaced."

"What about Dorifin's three things?" Fang realized something and asked.

Kita nodded.

"Yes, Dorifin's three things will reappear again. In fact, over the years, almost all of the sword of false victory has been produced from this ruined town in this way. ”

Sky blue is like listening to a book from the sky. "Once every three months, the equipment will reappear repeatedly? But how is this possible? Aren't all magic guides all artifacts, did someone deliberately prank them in that place? ”

"It shouldn't be a prank." Fang shook his head: "Who can play a prank like a day for decades? Moreover, the hoax does not explain the other strange phenomena surrounding these three objects. ”

"That's right." Sky blue suddenly.

"This place sounds like a 'copy.'" The Paparals listened to this conversation and couldn't help but mention it.

"Copy?"

"That was an early game term. It is used to describe the multiple mirror images of a region, such as parallel time and space, where things and objects in time and space will reappear repeatedly in a period of time. Fang explained.

"Hey, how could Brother Ed know such unfamiliar knowledge?" Azure asked curiously.

Fang touched his nose embarrassedly, in fact, he just knew more about this aspect when he was messing around in the virtual community before. In some retro games, there are still such settings.

Kita nodded and replied, "Parker is right, in fact, there is such a statement, and some people even speculate that Aitaria is actually a game left by a high-latitude civilization. It is said that there is not only one such place in the world, and Dorimin is just one of the more famous places. ”

"I seem to remember when you say that, I seem to have heard of this place before, but I didn't expect it to be in Elpahim." Fang couldn't help but replied: "I didn't expect that the statement that Aitalia is a game left by the high-dimensional civilization actually spread from here, if I'm not mistaken, there is also such a place in the second world, Covenant Mountain." ”

The others were still immersed in the conversation between the two, and at this time, only Luo Yu opened his mouth and asked, "Are we a little off-topic, Miss Atira is still here, aren't we here for the Dragon Cultists?" What do these things have to do with the dragon worshippers? ”

But before Kita could answer, Fang helped her speak.

"Maybe there's a connection"

Fang Hui remembered what Chris had told him before. He looked back at the latter, and in fact the young man was also casting a gaze at him, Fang nodded at him, "Come on, Chris." ”

Chris immediately replied, "Yes, sir." He looked at the others again. Ladies and gentlemen, what Miss Kita said earlier is indeed what happened before Dorifin, but it may be a little different from what you imagined. ”

"For example?"

"In the past, it was true that the frequency of visions in Doriphon was about once every three months, but now it is far from that. I remember it was about two months ago, not long after the Midsummer Celebration, a group of adventurers arrived at my father's lumberyard, and from them I heard that a small group had taken three things from Dorifin. Of course, this is not surprising, because this happens here three or four times a year, and every time the three things reappear, there is always a lucky person born. But strangely, it didn't take long after that rumors came that another adventurer had taken the new three things from Dorifin. ”

"After that, how long was that?" Luo Yu frowned and couldn't help but ask.

"If I'm not mistaken, half a month later," Chris replied. "But considering the lag in the news, I personally estimate that it should be more than a week away. In fact, since then, Dorifin's visions have appeared almost once a week, and then for two or three days, adventurers have come from all over the world to get a piece of the carnival. ”

"Why haven't I heard about it?" Parker couldn't help but ask, "We were also in Al Pakhin at the time, how did we miss such a good thing?" ”

"Shut up, Parker," Azure said angrily, glancing at Attila carefully, "At that time...... At that time, Sister Attila ...... No, we're busy with something else, so how can we be in the mood to care about anything else? ”

She was careful not to mention the key words, for fear of evoking Attila's sad memories.

But the elven girl was so perceptive that she had already understood the little girl's thoughts, and only glanced at her with some tenderness.

"Can you not interrupt," Luo Yu rarely took the initiative to mention, and then asked, "What about after that?" ”

"After that, a group of mysterious fellows came who blocked the main access to Doriffin, driving out all the adventurers. Since then, it is said that there have been several large-scale clashes as a result, and I don't know the final outcome very well, but I really haven't seen many adventurers in the area since then."

"A bunch of mysterious guys?"

"What kind of person is it?" Attila also set her eyes on the young man at once.

"I don't know, but it doesn't seem like yours......" Chris replied hesitantly.

"Not our people?" Tian Lan was stunned for a moment before he reacted, it was not their person, which meant that he was not the one who was elected.

That's interesting

Everyone's eyes were on Attila and Fang.

"Are they still in Doriffin, those people?"

Attila asked.
