Chapter 240: The Meaning of Waiting
In the smoke and dust, Fang slowly walked forward. He was walking towards the center of the square, which had been shattered from the previous battle, leaving only a deep pit where the wanderer had fallen, and the dust raised from it obscured everyone's vision.
Fang passed by Attila and the young man, and the scholar looked at him a little frightened, slightly out of the way, his current appearance was a little scary, the clothes on his upper body were completely shattered, and his bare skin was covered with layers of black scales, glittering in the night.
A pair of hands that are completely reptilian shaped, with five slightly open fingers and five slender and sharp claws. Thick scales grew up his neck, covering the small half of his cheeks, and above that, a pair of pale golden eyes. The narrow pupils inside seem to roll up a golden spark.
"Eddard ......" Attila struggled to raise her head from the ground, looking at him with deep apprehension in her emerald green eyes.
Fang glanced at Miss Elf, and replied in a hoarse and low voice, "I'm fine...... Miss Attila ......"
He didn't dare to say more, and then passed by the two silently. Because he was afraid that if he said half a word more, he would not be able to suppress the desire to kill in his heart, and it was clear that he had stopped the wanderer, but the fire of anger in his heart was not suppressed.
On the contrary, it is even more vigorous
He gasped softly, and there was always a kind of depression that had not yet been calmed down and had not been completely vented. Fang unconsciously clenched his fists, his joints making a 'gurgling' sound, and the dark thoughts dominated him, making him walk step by step under the pit.
But a soft voice called out to him from behind:
"Mr. Ed."
Fang turned around.
The girl sat on her knees, her pale body almost transparent, her face still stained with tears, and looked up at him, her brows full of worry.
Fang showed Bai Sensen's fangs, smiled at her gently, and then the young man hurriedly turned his head, closed his eyes, and there was a beating under his eyelids, he clenched his fists tightly, and after a long time, he opened his eyes again, and a trace of black light flashed in his golden pupils.
He didn't dare to turn back and hurriedly continued to walk down.
Deep in the pit, wanderers are shaking their ropes and getting up from below.
A hint of surprise flashed in Fang's eyes. His two attacks alone would not have injured the opponent in such a way that he was in front of him, and the 'Count of Cillin-Sibica' seemed to be under a great burden, and he propped his hands on the ground, struggled several times, and then fell back again.
Fang looked at the other party unexpectedly, the dark thoughts in his heart made his heart full of mockery at the moment, although he didn't know why the other party became like this, he still wouldn't let go of this opportunity. He walked over step by step, his paw on the ground, and the sand and gravel rolled down with a soft sound.
Some stone bullets jumped in front of the wanderer and landed in his hand before he raised his head and looked at Fang. A hint of unwillingness flashed in the other party's eyes, and he replied coldly: "If it weren't for the trap left by the two guys Joshud and Karatu......
Fang had already expected that he would be able to achieve all the credit in one blow, and it was not entirely his own credit. He didn't know what Joshud and Karatu had set up here, but there was no doubt that it had made his crucial attack work at the last minute.
Although I don't know how those two dragon slaying heroes foresaw today's scene. But when he saw the other party like this, he couldn't help but feel a little happy.
People who call themselves hunters will one day become the prey of others.
The mastermind behind everything behind the scenes, but in the end fell under the planning of others.
Fang sneered: "It seems that you are not omniscient and omnipotent, and you fail again and again, is that what you call eternity?" Have you ever wondered why you fell into this situation, the reason is simple. Unrighteous deeds can only be gained for a while. ”
"Justice?"
Even in this situation, the wanderer scoffed.
"Look at yourself, you killed me, but you yourself have become the most hated person you used to be. The cycle of hatred will never end," the wanderer's pale and thin cheeks, as if a few deep shadows had fallen, and he smiled self-deprecatingly, "Is it worth it?" ”
"I'm not from this world."
Hearing this, the wanderer did not answer for a long time. He was silent, as if savoring the meaning of defeat, as if chewing on the subtleties of the answer.
It wasn't until a long time later that the wanderer looked back at Fang on his face, and the light blue eyes of Count Sirin-Sbicca turned gray at this moment, as if they were covered with a layer of haze. His thin lips turned up slightly, and he squeezed out an expression that he couldn't tell whether to cry or laugh:
"In that case, I'll tell you a secret......"
Fang looked at this person in surprise.
But the wanderer didn't intend to ask for his opinion, and whispered:
"You'll never be able to escape this nightmare."
"The other world is not your safe haven, eternity, do you know its weight?"
Fang was furious.
He grabbed the other party's collar and didn't ask why, the monstrous anger in his heart finally couldn't be suppressed, and the wanderer's gray pupils were looking at him with a hint of calmness: "It's not you who defeated me, next time, you won't have such good luck." ”
And this sentence completely angered Fang, making him smash his raised fist high into a fist.
The dragon's power pierced the wanderer's body almost unhindered, passing through his chest and turning his heart into powder. But under the punch, a large hole was opened in the wanderer's chest, but not a trace of blood flowed out of his body, and Fang Ruo only pierced through a ball of purple flames.
Purple flames overflowed.
But this only made Fang even more angry.
At the same time that his right hand punched through the wanderer's body, his left hand swung out again, piercing half of the wanderer's body, causing the left half of his body to disappear almost completely, turning into wisps of purple flames and falling to the ground. But the wanderer didn't seem to feel pain, just lowered his head and quietly watched this happen
Fang punched again, and the remaining power was transmitted to the square, almost with a bang, causing the place where the two of them were to collapse by a layer. He threw another punch, punch after punch, and the last punch slammed into the ground, and in the roar after roar, the square was filled with smoke and dust, and the layers were sinking down.
Finally, Fang punched through the floor, causing the two to fall into a tunnel below, and the sand and gravel rolled down all around, and the yellow sand rushed in like a rushing waterfall. But Fang suddenly didn't realize it, only his eyes shone with a dark and dull light, and he smashed punch after punch on the wanderer.
The latter had long since ceased to be in shape, and even the last flame had completely dissipated under his fist, turning into dots of purple light that flew in all directions.
The scattered flames quickly regrouped and seemed to revert to the form of wanderers.
But Fang was still angry, and smashed punch after punch where he originally was.
It was as if every punch he threw was filled with untold rage, from himself, from Dorifin, from every victim of that disaster, Misu, Heath, Diktor, Attilla's brother, Lady Quesu's son, Eve, and even the mother of the young girl Eve beneath the castle of Aemu.
Fang threw punch after punch, each time the wanderer's flames gathered, and each time he scattered them, finally a low curse sound came from the flames.
Finally, it turns into a little spark and seeps into the ground.
But Fang still waved his fist as if he was enchanted.
Until a huge claw, reaching out from behind him, grabbed his hand. Fang Yi tried hard, but he didn't break his hand out. Only then did he look back gloomily, only to find that it was the bone dragon that was holding his hand, which was the huge undead creature who had been watching from the sidelines.
Fang's mind was in a mess, and he didn't want to think about it, so he swung his backhand with a punch.
But the dragon king's curse had already overdrawn his strength, and he swung his fist over, but the bone dragon raised his claws to block it and gently blocked it. He stepped back, his heart full of anger, as if a voice was constantly agitating him to destroy all the enemies that stood in his way.
But just before he sank completely into darkness, it was like a shining light rising in front of him.
He saw a bright green glow flash out of the darkness.
And the light suddenly spread out in all directions, and turned into a vast ocean, shining in front of him.
It was at that moment that he finally heard Tata's voice: "Wake up, Mr. Knight. ”
The calm voice, so familiar and stable, made him suddenly come back to his senses, and the darkness in his eyes was gone. Fang shuddered at this time, and raised his head a little dazedly, as if he didn't know what was going on, and in his eyes, he just saw a stumbling white figure running towards him.
That's Eve
The girl fell to her knees not far from him, crying and pleading, "Mr. Ed, stop, he's already gone......"
She couldn't help but stretch out her hand, wanting to touch Fang's hand, but unfortunately, the girl's hand only passed through Fang's hand like smoke. When Fang saw this scene, he seemed to remember something, and suddenly calmed down.
It was a fleeting memory in the dark underground......
He looked at the girl in front of him with vacant eyes. Looking not far away, two strangers appeared in his field of vision, no, it should be said that a stranger. Because another lich wrapped in tattered robes, he had seen once in the underground of Worm Castle.
Two men with staffs in their hands walked towards him, one left and one right. Especially the middle-aged man with black hair was looking at him with a little curiosity in his eyes.
And who are these two people? Why did the lich that had been seen under Wormburg appear in this place?
Fang shook his head a bit, and then gradually regained some consciousness. Then he saw more people, Parker, Elisa, and Miss Atira, and at the sight of these familiar people, he finally regained some of his senses in his heart. It's just that his mind is still groggy, and he can't help but move his gaze to the side and look at the girl on the side:
"Miss Eve?"
Fang seemed to finally remember where he was and what he was fighting for.
He couldn't help but ask, a little confused.
Eve stretched out her hand, but hesitated to shrink back when she remembered the previous scene. She looked up, nodded to Fang with teary eyes, and then barely managed to squeeze out a smile.
Fang asked again, "Did we win?" ”
His voice was hoarse, startling him. Fang looked around left and right, but did not see the shadow of the wanderer.
The previous scene was like a phantom to him, just like a dream.
"Sort of win," Eve replied with tears in her eyes, "he's gone." ”
"Just left......
Another wave of dizziness struck, Fang reached out to support his forehead, and couldn't help muttering a little pity.
But he suddenly remembered something, looked at Eve in front of him and said, "By the way, Miss Eve...... I've figured out what happened a hundred years ago. ”
Fang seemed to remember everything he had seen under the town hall before, and the clues gradually became clear in his mind, and he eagerly organized his words and said, "I think, I also know why Lord Joshude didn't destroy the dragon's golden pupil and leave the dragon's heart here......"
"He's not imprisoning you."
"Because he hasn't broken his promise to you."
“…… Have you forgotten? What you are waiting for here is not him, you have already waited for his return, what you are waiting for here is the complete solution of the dragon witch **"
"That's your agreement with him, isn't it?"
Fang felt as if his throat was about to burst, and he almost tried his best to say these words: "You have waited for so long, but you have never given up, and even you have forgotten your original purpose?" ”
The girl nodded with tears in her eyes, "Yes, I already remember, Mr. Ed. I promised Joshua to use all the time I had left to make up for the wrongs I had done in this long darkness. ”
At some point, the voices on the battlefield gradually subsided.
The Descendants of Flor seem to have triumphed, and a few men in two-color robes have appeared on the edge of the crater. They stood in that direction and asked in a loud voice, "Which warband are the people below, if you don't answer, I'll think you're air pirates?" ”
But the other party's voice did not fall.
The black-haired middle-aged man on the side turned his head and only glanced in that direction faintly. He raised his staff slightly, and the men immediately froze in place like puppets.
The middle-aged man was probably worried that these people would attract more attention if they were there. He thought for a moment, and as he stretched out his hand, a flash of light flashed, and the men disappeared immediately. Seeing this scene, Fang's eyes couldn't help but condense, but all teleportation spells were at least high-level magic above the seven rings.
And the person who can be used to put it mildly is at least a kind of name for the superior, that is, the person who returns to the second world.
He had thought that the Lich was the one who had sold the Wanderer before, but now it seemed that this was not the case.
But this thought only flashed through his mind, so that he could turn his head to look at the girl.
Eve choked up and said, "Thank you, Mr. Eddard."
"Joshua has forgiven me a long time ago, and I have forgiven him, but in this long time, I have forgotten who I am. After all, the remaining souls have stayed in this dark underground for too long, and I should have gone to find Joshud a long time ago. ”
At some point, the first rays of dawn had appeared above the horizon.
The light-colored sunlight passed over the edge of the pit and sprinkled little by little to the bottom of the pit. It passed through the girl's body, making the girl's ghost appear more transparent in the sunlight, almost evaporating.
When Fang saw this scene, he was slightly stunned.
He couldn't help but blurt out and asked, "Miss Eve...... You......? ”
Eve nodded with tears in her eyes, as if she was sincerely relieved to see Fang Wei transform into a dragon as she imagined. Although Fang's appearance at the moment still looked a little hideous and terrifying, she didn't feel so at all.
There was only peace in the girl's heart: "You did it, Mr. Eddard, the answer I have been waiting for for a hundred years was handed over to me by you." ”
“…… I finally remembered the whereabouts of the holy sword Galapeia, it turned out that Joshud really had descendants, and I had met them thirty years ago. ”
"That girl looks like Joshide, she must be called Misu, right?"
"She told me that she would go to the north with her brother to find the true prophecy of the Crown of Light, the coming of the Crown of Light, and the history of the Oathkeepers, and thus the end."
"They also told me that I was the prophesied Endender, and that the ancient legend had never been missed, and that I would be the last of the dark dragons. The age of the Dark Dragon will end with the name Evelyn Nicol Bolas. ”
"After that," the girl smiled slightly, tears glistening in her eyes, "that's your story." ”
Fang looked at each other.
Although he knew that this was the best ending for this girl, because she was about to go forever to find her lover. The person she had missed all her life, a hundred years of time, she finally waited for this moment of peace.
But he couldn't help but ask a little unbearably and even a little selfishly, "But Miss Eve...... Wanderer, he's not dead...... He'll always come back, is your agreement with Lord Joschud really over? ”
The girl smiled and nodded.
"Yes."
"Because what I'm waiting for is a better answer."
"I see the end of that ancient time, the reappearance of the Crown of Light."
"I've waited for you, Mr. Eddard."
Half of her body was almost gone.
But Eve still reached out and walked through the sunlight as if she could actually touch Fang's face, pausing lightly in that spot and pressing her fingertips to his cheek.
"You are me, and Joshud, the one we all have been waiting for, Mr. Ed," her voice was soft, like a dark underground, and the gentle song was like a ray of dawn that could pierce through the darkness of people's hearts, "Close your eyes, Mr. Ed." ”
"I'll give you one last gift."
Fang looked at each other fixedly.
He could see the pleading look in the girl's eyes.
Although I couldn't bear it, I nodded and closed my eyes.
At that moment, he seemed to hear a soft sigh. The long exclamation, as if crossing a long time, from the prosperity of Idus a century ago, came to this desolate ruin, and asked him:
"Mr. Ed, are you a friend of Eve......
Hearing this, Fang couldn't hold back any longer, and only blinked his eyelids slightly, but felt as if he had entered sand in his eyes. The next moment, he suddenly opened his eyes, but he only heard a soft 'ding' sound, and a silver, somewhat shoddy ring, only rolled to the ground.
But in front of him, only the light of the morning light had completely passed the bottom of the pit......
The sky was slightly white, and the bright sun was shining on a desolate land a hundred years later.
Quiet and secluded.
And in front of you, where is the shadow of a girl?
Fang only saw that Miss Elf was quietly walking in front of him, squatting down and picking up the ring.
Then she straightened up, took the ring in her hand, and looked at him quietly with emerald green eyes.
Seeing this scene, Fang couldn't hold back any longer. He only felt a sour nose, choked up, and said, "Miss Attila ......"
"Miss Eve, she ......"
"Have you already left......?"
……
