Chapter 475: Sunset City, the Mysterious Comeder
Deep in the wooded Dino Forest, ancient trees one after another give this place a dangerous and mysterious atmosphere. And as the sun sets, the depths of the forest are pierced with the roars of various magical beasts from time to time, making even the strongest among humans feel terrified to spend the night here.
And what is surprising is that in one place deep in the forest, there is not such a dense forest, but a clearing full of green grass surrounded by trees. There are several small hills around, and caves that are not too big.
But this scene of green grass and shade is only like a dream, as the afterglow of the sunset shines, one after another of the green grass actually begins to slowly change, with the light of the sunset inch by inch disappearing.
Then came the ruins, the burning earth, and even a huge crater, as if it had experienced a very large explosion.
The ruins seem to be full of magic, slowly shining in the light of the setting sun. And this is the mysterious ancient city that Long Fan just entered this world realm and came to when he participated in the mercenary mission-Sunset City.
Since Long Fan and the others came, with the opening of the altar and the firing of the magic cannon, the entire ancient city has collapsed into ruins. The mystery of the past no longer exists, but it is more full of quaint flavor.
But in the center of this ruin, it is amazing that the original broken altar is still intact, and even the light on it is constantly bubbling up, telling those who see it that this altar can still be activated.
Suddenly, a few small birds, which could not tell what kind of monster it was, flew down and landed on a stone that looked like a human. And the little bird may be puzzled. The human-like stone was actually wearing armor and sitting on the gravel next to the altar with a sword in his hand. But he didn't move, as if telling them that it was just a stone.
Suddenly, the birds all raised their heads. The owner's sensitive sense of hearing seemed to hear some strange sound, and then they all felt the earth tremble slightly, so that the weak ones hurriedly flew into the sky, never daring to fall again.
And then, the dilapidated altar, which was glowing with light, suddenly shone loudly, and a row of strange ancient characters appeared in the light. And then as the light grows brighter and brighter. Four figures also appeared here.
And the figure like a stone was also shocked, and then slowly raised his head and stood up, holding the long sword in his hand and walking towards the figure.
"Trespassers on the altar, tell me what you are here for." The voice of the stone-like figure was as dry as a machine. But you can still hear what is being said. If Long Fan is there. Will definitely recognize him. It was the captain of the guard who was originally guarding the ruins.
"Huh?" A crisp and pleasant voice snorted strangely, and I saw the four figures turn their heads to look at the captain of the guard in unison.
"I didn't expect that there were still imprisoned souls from ancient times here. I don't know that I have been guarding this altar for hundreds of years. Next to the person who had just spoken, the girl who was wearing a black cloak like the man and completely concealed her appearance spoke softly.
"Yes, but I don't need to. Nakovis, let this poor soul sleep forever. The cloaked man's voice sounded as crisp as a yellow oriole again, but without a hint of emotion.
"Yes, Your Highness!" Behind him, an old man dressed in black bent respectfully, and then stopped after only two steps forward. Then I listened to a few quick incantations from his mouth, and then a wooden stick in his hand suddenly pointed at the altar guard, and a fire dragon appeared and pounced on him with a howl, and it turned out to be magic.
The altar guard's mechanical eyes flashed, he raised the long sword in his hand, and said: "If the intruder is found, he will be sentenced to death, and he will ...... immediately" and before he could finish his words, the fire dragon pounced on his body, and his body fell apart like a stone in an instant.
One of the last altar guards in Sunset City disappeared.
Then I saw the woman called His Highness turn around and sit on the boulder beside her, and the woman next to her turned over her hood, her long dark green hair hung down naturally like a waterfall, and her fair face was still wearing a pair of small glasses, but her expression was unusually serious.
The girl said to Nakwis and another black-robed man: "Now go and collect the news of this continent and deal with the controller of this continent, understand?" ”
The two nodded at the girl, then bent down at His Highness, who had already sat down, and slowly turned and disappeared into the forest.
"Whew... These two old things are gone, and they are suffocated when they come out with them. The green-haired girl's serious expression collapsed instantly, and then she jumped up and ran to the side of Her Highness, and said with a smile: "Your Royal Highness Princess, we can't just stay like this during this time, let's go out for a walk and take a look at this continent, right?" ”
"Xiao Ai." Her Royal Highness the princess snorted her helplessly, and then pulled the black cloak on her head, allowing the long purple hair that could make people intoxicated naturally fall to her waist, and her beautiful face seemed to make the heavens and the earth lose their color.
"We have a mission in our bodies, can't we just know the way to play, know the way?" The princess no longer had the same emotionless voice as before, but was full of tenderness.
Xiao Ai spit out her pink tongue, which was extremely cute.
"But you can't stay here forever! Although the trees here are quite pleasing to the eye... But how boring! Xiao Ai muttered dissatisfiedly.
"They'll be soon." The princess turned her head to look at the sky, looking at this continent that was completely different from the one she lived in, and which would also be the continent of their country in the future.
"Hopefully." Xiao Ai also sat down helplessly, no matter what, she still had to listen to Her Royal Highness the princess, although the princess has always taken care of her as a maid, but if she is disobedient, it is rude.
The princess didn't speak any more, just sat quietly, waiting for news from the two men who had gone out......
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"He means he still wants to hold the imperial power?" In the courtyard of the Huaxia City of the Mo Lan family, Long Fan, Mo Lan Nu, and Wei Mo Lan were still sitting in that room.
"Well, at the meeting today, the emperor also proposed that the great prince inherit the throne and unify mankind." Long Fan nodded and said truthfully. (To be continued......)
PS: Friends, remember Sunset City? Remember the captain of the altar guard? Remember the man Nakvis, and his fire magic?
Friends who still remember should be able to guess that as the first part comes to an end, the foreshadowing of the second part also begins~
