Chapter 43: Runes
Duan Wuyan took the sleeping Noxilaner into his arms, and his tears merged with Noxilaner's tears. He didn't know what a thousand years of life was for an elf, but for him, a mortal, a thousand years was enough to forget a person and find true love.
Duan Wuyan only remembered what Qingyang Zhenren had said at that moment just now: "If it is not a world, it will eventually leave." β
Sooner or later, he and Nosiran will be separated.
Duan Wuyan smiled bitterly.
He hoped that his love with Nosiran would be to be separated but not to, not to be together but not to.
Duan Wuyan lowered his head slightly, and in front of the elves of the forest language, in front of the elven king Ednosir, he kissed Nosilan's cheek.
Ednosil frowned.
After a long time, Duan Wuyan handed Noxilaner into the hands of an elf beside him, and then walked towards the outside of the palace.
All the elves aimed their halberds at Duan Wuyan one after another.
Duan Wuyan smiled bitterly, the tip of his nose against the tip of the gun.
Ednosil sighed softly, waved his hand, and ordered the elves to let Duan Wuyan leave.
Duan Wuyan turned around slowly, clasped his fists at Ednosir and thanked him, "Thank you." Then he slowly left the elven palace in the forest forest.
At this time, the moonlight is full of green trees, and the sorrow is like a star.
Duan Wuyan suddenly recalled the poem he saw at the bottom of the sea that day, and he didn't remember anything else, he only knew that there were two sentences in it: "Suddenly shocked from the nine heavens, I knew that I was a guest from Kyushu." Kyushu is vast and full of customers, when will I see this Yunzen again?"
Walking on the path of the Linyu Forest, Duan Wuyan only felt that he was the Kyushu guest in the poem, and Noxilaner was the Yunxian, and he was just a mortal envy to her.
Duan Wuyan stood at the entrance of the Linyu Forest, his heart was very sour, he also wanted to compose poetry, but he couldn't even write a word.
Duan Wuyan wiped his tears.
Anyway, it's not long since we got acquainted, and it's easy to let go. Duan Wuyan comforted himself, he was not a person of the same world, and he and Noxilaner just happened to go all the way together.
"You are indeed different from him. A low voice suddenly came from behind Duan Wuyan: "He has no feelings, but you do." β
Duan Wuyan turned around slowly, only to see the Elf King Ednosil standing in front of him.
Duan Wuyan smiled bitterly and asked, "Is the person who ruined this place dressed in white, holding a long sword, and is on fire all over his body?"
Ednosil nodded, he was indeed very angry with Chen Changtian, but at this moment, his eyes were more disappointed: "Yes." β
Duan Wuyan reluctantly smiled: "He is indeed too stubborn......"
Ednosir asked softly, "I heard you say that your mission is to separate the two worlds?"
Duan Wuyan nodded. Since coming to the Western Regions, too many things have happened to him, and he is about to forget his mission, and he is here to investigate the reason for the integration of the two worlds.
Duan Wuyan asked Ed Nosier, "Is there something that happened here? The two worlds won't just come together for no reason. β
Ednosir sighed lightly and said, "We have quelled a catastrophe, but the real catastrophe has just begun......
Duan Wuyan frowned, and tried his best to put his mind on the common people and the world, and he could only put aside the matter of Noxilaner for the time being.
Ednosil continued, "Just before, a poisonous dragon was destroying Middle-earth with impunity. Its power is far beyond all else, and it is far beyond our imagination. In order to defeat it, we can only borrow the power of the runestone. β
"Runes?" Duan Wuyan had heard of this kind of thing for the first time.
Ednosil nodded and said, "It's something that symbolizes the elements and power, there are eight pieces in total. Although we finally used the power of rune stones to seal the poisonous dragon in the extreme northwest of the continent. However, it is precisely because of our unauthorized use of runes that the main continent has undergone great changes, so that a land that we have never seen before has appeared in the sea originally located in the east, which is what we call the 'Far East'. β
"The two worlds merge with each other, which is not what we want. Because danger and catastrophe always arise in uncertain places. Most of the forces of Middle-earth, like you, want to separate the two worlds. And at present, it seems that there is only one way to separate the two worlds, and that is to use the power of rune stones again to return the continent to its place. β
Duan Wuyan frowned and asked, "Then where is the rune stone now?"
"It's scattered. Ednosil replied with a solemn expression, "Each tribe once held a rune stone. The elves are responsible for protecting the life runes, the humans control the wind runes, the dwarves regard the thunder runes as holy relics, the gnomes continue to inherit the moonlight runes, the ocean runes have been stored by the Naga in the underwater temple, the dragons also have a dragon rune stone known as 'DRORSA', and the last rune stone, the Yang Yan rune stone, is kept by the Esoteric Sect. β
"Esoteric Sect?" Although Duan Wuyan didn't know anything about each of the tribes that Ednosil had just mentioned, the word "Esoteric Sect" was the most strange to Duan Wuyan.
Ednosir replied, "This is what the elves call them. Esoteric religions are located in the southwestern part of Middle-earth, and they worship their own gods, regardless of race. It's a unique organization, or rather genre. People in Esoteric Buddhism will have a power that is different from the ordinary elements, a mysterious and unique power. It is worth mentioning that the humans in Esoteric Buddhism are somewhat similar in appearance to those of your Far East. β
Duan Wuyan nodded, keeping these in his heart. However, he was most concerned about the location of the rune stone now.
The perceptive Ednosil spoke out the answer before Duan Wuyan could ask: "Now, the eight runes have been lost. If your goals are the same as ours, then please do your best to find the runes and return them to the clan that owns them. β
Duan Wuyan sighed softly.
Knowing that this was a very important task, Ednosil immediately handed Duan Wuyan an emerald green ring and said, "This is a life ring, it can heal your injuries. But the energy in it is limited, so you should use it sparingly. β
Duan Wuyan carefully accepted the ring, and just as he put it on, Duan Wuyan noticed the wrench on his handβthe wrench that had been transformed from Chen Changtian's father's magic weapon.
Duan Wuyan's mind was very chaotic at the moment, he had just separated from Noxilan, and now he had to find both Chen Changtian and Rune Stone, and more importantly, now the fire of separation in Chen Changtian's body seemed to be difficult to suppress, and he had to come up with a way as soon as possible.
Duan Wuyan frowned, and asked Ednosil suspiciously, "Why do you believe me?"
Ed Nosir smiled slightly: "Because of your love for the elves, your love for Nosiland." β
Duan Wuyan suddenly felt a pain in his heart, he didn't know what kind of mood Noxilaner would be in when he woke up.
"I have a hunch that we will have a lot of entanglements with the Far East. If one day the elves go to war with you, the only thing I won't be embarrassed about is you. β
Duan Wuyan couldn't help but be a little surprised: "Why?"
Ednosir said slowly, "Elves' intuition is often more accurate than prophecy. I saw destruction, I saw extinction, I saw the wailing of countless lives in the humans of that Far East. And in you, I see hope and light. The war may not have started yet, or it may have already begun to brew. I hope you can stop your friends and change the world. Of course, I also hope that you will live with the love of Nosiran. β
"Is it still possible for me to be with her?" Duan Wuyan said with a wry smile: "The world will eventually separate, even if I can get along with her for a while, then in the end, all the good things will end." β
Ednosir said, "You are doing the right thing, for your outcome is destined to be sad. β
Duan Wuyan laughed at himself and said, "This is the first time I know what love is...... Oh no...... Maybe it's not ...... love either."
Ednosil smiled slightly and said in a sad tone, "You don't have to deny it. β
Duan Wuyan was slightly stunned.
Ednosir walked away slowly, leaving his back to Duan Wuyan.
The Elven King's voice was elegant and sad.
Duan Wuyan heard the last words Ednosil say before leaving, "True love is like this." β
