Chapter 489: Shadow Mystery Cloud (Third Watch)

Unspeakable, all-consuming fear.

Fiery, uncontrollable rage.

Claustrophobic oppression, stuffing the mouth, nose and throat.

Behind it all is an insatiable hunger - the coveting of warmth and life, to let more souls into the darkness.

The discordant tones were deafening—millions of tormented souls screaming, tossing and turning in shared pain.

This is the black fog.

Only the strongest souls can escape its bondage and re-descend to the Isle of Shadows.

The spirits of those who still have unfinished business will be imprisoned in the black mist for eternity, and will become the minions of the curse.

Ledros said.

In other words, Senna's soul just ran from one small prison to another, and was not torn apart and annihilated by the black mist. It's just that the curse in the black mist will assimilate Senna into a resentful spirit, maybe she is now wandering in a wisp of black mist around you, but there is a barrier that separates you from each other, and you can't touch it. ”

After listening to Ledros's description, Jeno came to this conclusion.

Lucian opened the hanging box at some point, immersed in fantasy, looking at the portrait of the woman in front of him, and his cold gaze became gentle.

He rarely opens the box, because indulging in grief makes him weak.

And grief is a flaw in the armor.

Lucian couldn't bear to be completely immersed in the grief of losing her, a feeling he didn't want to experience for a third time.

So he decisively closed the pendant.

He must be cut off from grief until the day when Senna is laid to rest.

"Now we have the same goal. I'm going to lift the curse and let Xena rest in peace. Lucian gripped his guns again, his eyes resolute again, and he would never let go of his guns as long as he still had a target.

"Wait." Jeno still has something to say, "Have you forgotten that Hammerstone didn't really die?" ”

"I haven't forgotten, I also went to take his life along the way." Lucian said.

"And where did he go?" Jeno looked around, but no one answered him.

Helpless, Jeno could only ask in another way.

"We've killed Hecarim a hundred times combined, but has anyone seen where he came back from?"

No one knows, and it's an unsolved mystery that even Letros doesn't know the answer to. But Jeno's statement made Ledros have some eyebrows.

"All I know is that every time I open my eyes after I come back to life, I show up in front of the door of the library fortress." Lejos seemed to have some bad memories in mind, but he was determined to face his past.

"Because I was killed there, in order to avenge Calista, I challenged Hekarim in front of the Vault Fortress, only to be stabbed to death by the soldiers of the Iron Order. So every time I regained consciousness, I was lying on top of the pool of blood that had flowed, and my broken sword was lying beside me. It's the same every time. Unalterable. ”

"I'm sorry."

Jeno apologizes to Ledroth, reminding him of bad memories. But Lestrus just smiled and motioned for him to continue speaking his thoughts.

"Based on Ledroth's experience, the resurrection point of Hammerstone should be in the dungeon, because it was here that the black mist was transformed into an undead."

"What does resurrection point mean?" Ledros asked, he probably understood what Jeno was saying, but the word was so confusing that he was not sure for a moment whether what he heard matched what he understood.

It means the place of resurrection, the place of resurrection. I'm sorry, but this is just a makeshift jargon I made up to make it easier for myself to understand. ”

"I don't know about you, Jinx understands anyway." Jinx suddenly came out and intervened, but no one paid attention to her when it came to business.

"But I didn't feel him in the dungeon, and Hammerstone is now in a place not too far away." Lucian said.

"It's in the city! He's in the city of Helia! Ledros added, but the discovery also made him frown: "But why does Hammerstone come back to life right now?" I remember every time I started a new cycle and woke up to Hammerstone, he would tell me that I had been missing for a while, months, or years, and then he would say that he couldn't remember it anymore. ”

Ledros wondered why it took so long for him to be reincarnated, while Hammerstone could be resurrected in another place shortly after being killed.

This was completely contrary to the law of reincarnation that he knew, and he couldn't understand it for a while.

"Have you ever thought that Hammerstone is even deceiving you with these things......"

Jeno was more willing to believe what he saw than what he had heard. Since the hammerstone was quickly resurrected and appeared elsewhere, it shows that the law of reincarnation that Lesstrus believed is all the nonsense of the hammerstone.

He was inducing Rydros into misconceptions, and thus falling into the mental vortex he had prepared for a long time, so that Rydros would live forever in his own torment.

"......" Ledros's eyes suddenly darkened, and a feeling of fear used his back to make his face look iron-blue.

Apparently he had thought of what Jeno had in mind, too.

If it weren't for Jeno accidentally breaking his cycle of death, perhaps he would have been tormented by the hammerstone in another way every reincarnation.

"Ahem, I think if you die now, you should be resurrected in the city." Jeno didn't give Ledros time to be sad and threw out further points.

"But I have no memory of waking up in front of the stacks." Ledros shook his head, feeling empty and unable to think of anything.

"I don't know, there's no evidence, and I can't deduce what could have happened. Suppose there are rules that erase the memory of your walk from the city to the library. But I'm sure there must be some secret hidden at the site of Hammerstone's resurrection, and perhaps that is the key to unlocking the curse. ”

"Also, the hammerstone approach also struck me as odd. Because he said that he already knew in advance that we were actually coming to settle accounts with him, and that he could have escaped before we arrived, and that there was no need to break the net with us. Even if he was bent on death, then he could have committed suicide. What does this mean? ”

"The undead can't kill themselves." Ledros interjected, but when he saw a pair of terrifying holy spears in Lucian's hand, he quickly changed his words: "Anyway, I can't break myself." ”

"Uh......" Jeno didn't expect this, so he changed his words: "This shows that he can't kill himself, and wants to kill himself with a knife, so as to go to that place that he can't reach, and go there to do something." And this place should be the missing part of the road in your memory. Ledroth, I ask you, have you never been to the city? ”

Ledros retorted loudly in dissatisfaction: "What are you kidding, I am the defender of the king, the chief swordsman given by the king, my task is to guard the gate of the fortress and prevent anyone from entering the city, of course I can't leave my post to enter the ...... without permission"

Speaking of the back, Ledros's face also became strange, and his voice became more and more effective...... He found that he really didn't seem to have any memories of the city!

Isn't it strange that he's been outside the gates of a wall for centuries without any memories of it?

Looking at Ledroth, who had already realized that something was wrong, Jeno turned sideways and looked in the direction of Hylia City.

There, there seemed to be a big cloud of mystery waiting for him to get rid of it.

In the past month, all kinds of data have fallen, and the results can't bear to look at it directly, crying and chirping!
