Chapter 231

In the night, two figures riding two horses were shuttling through the birch forest.

All the way to the mountains in the distance.

The chaos in the direction of the old cemetery had gradually subsided, much sooner than Wille had imagined, and it seemed that the knights of the Church were eager to hunt them out, and they had been preparing for a long time.

The two of them gradually came from the side of the road to the uninhabited birch forest, and the surrounding scenery became more and more ancient and desolate.

The mountains that were not seen in the distance in the birch forest town gradually appeared in the eyes, majestically stretching, stretching across the left and right of the field of vision, the winter moon is approaching, although there is no snow yet, but the rustle of the leaves on the mountains can be heard even in the distance.

The morning sun rose in the distance, and the morning light shone on Elletel's body, and her sassy blonde hair fluttered in the wind with the jolts of the horses.

His cheeks were slightly red from the wind, his face was slightly dusty, a pair of brown eyes looked ahead, and under the delicate tip of his nose were gently closed pale red lips.

However, Wiel found that Elletelle's ears were not as delicate and slender as those of Boreth or Pease, as delicate as the antlers, but were slightly pointed, but not noticeable.

In other words, the shape of Elletair is closer to that of Veil.

"Vere? What are you looking at? Elettel felt the gaze behind her.

"The view." Ver looked ahead and replied softly.

The corners of Elettair's mouth curled slightly, and he leaned forward slightly, and with a shake of the reins in his hand, the horse that sat down ran faster.

Will he have ridden before, but he has only tried to ride twice on the horse farm, and he has never really ridden his own horse. But Wiel's body seemed to have adapted to the horse for a long time, and he was able to follow the horse's bumps with ease.

"Catch up with me!" Eltail shouted from the front.

Weir smiled, the rope in his hand shook, the horse instantly accelerated, and Weiel's body couldn't help but lean back, but fortunately, he mastered the balance in an instant and sat down again.

Eletel, who was in front of him, looked back at this step and laughed a little. "Chase me!"

"I'm going to catch up, let's see!" Veel leaned forward and followed Elletair as he rushed forward.

Two dusty figures galloped swiftly across the vast plain between the birch forest and the mountains.

"Try this!" With that, Elletair turned the reins and turned to the side. The horses' hooves kicked the ground violently, making two small pits in the ground, turning in a perfect arc and running in the direction of the mountains.

Ver smiled softly behind him, and followed the example of Elletair, and turned the reins in his hand, but the horses under him did not make a sharp turn, but made a large arc, and then slowly chased in the direction of Elletair.

"Looks like we're going to have to come on, man." Ver whispered to his mount, and the horse snorted and sped up, but remained only behind Elletair.

"Yes, Will, your horsemanship isn't bad either."

"Or Ellay, you're more powerful, like a gust of wind." Will said later.

"Haha." Eletair smiled happily, "We're almost there, follow me." The two continued to gallop forward. Then, the two figures disappeared into the mountains.

The horse's body was steaming hot, and the cold of the mountains turned into mist, making the whole horse seem to be shrouded in rain and mist.

"Just leave them here, we'll have to take the rest of the way ourselves." The road in the mountains became narrow, and the two came to a narrow mountain path. "That ruins are just ahead."

"Okay." Ver dismounted, handed the rope in his hand to Eltayr, and himself took a few steps forward to look into the trail.

They had already led their horses some distance, and this was the last place where there were trees and grass before the trail, and the road up was rough and winding, and the trail ahead was dark and full of stones, and it was not suitable for horses to go on.

The swordswoman Eletel walked from behind, "Go on, the remains are here." ”

"Who would settle their hermitage here...... It's too dark and hidden. ”

"The current situation of the mage is far more sad than you think...... Without further ado, Vere, let us move forward. With that, Elletair walked down the trail.

The two men entered the mountain path, leaving two horses there to graze on the grass.

There will also be some echoes in the mountain path, which makes the whole atmosphere seem even more eerie.

"The mountain road is the entrance? No, there should be an entrance. Wiel carefully surveyed the mountain walls on either side, looking for the secret door.

Like Veel, Eltayr was looking carefully. "I remember, I did the markers here...... Well, yes, here it is. ”

As he walked, Elletair suddenly called to Vere, "Vere, right here." ”

Wiel followed closely and came to the female swordsman's side, "Where?" …… This hole?! Ver saw that in the inside of the mountain wall there was a depression, and Eltael stood by, placing a slab of stone beside him.

"I made a mark on this slate...... This is it. With that, Eltayr took a long iron rod from his bag and quickly struck it into the ground, tying a rope to it and placing it down the black hole.

"It's dark." Wiel shrugged. "Ladies first?"

Eltatier looked at Ver, then flicked her long hair and coiled it up. "Okay."

Crisp and neat, without a hint of hesitation, Elettel rolled down, tugged at the rope, felt strong, and then crawled down the rope.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Weir made a lot of torches at the entrance of the cave and put them in the package on his back, and the wooden armor was transformed on his body, and he pressed the dagger on his waist, and the gunpowder in the space of the backpack.

Ready, Ver waited for a while, and heard a voice from the cave, vaguely as if it was deep, "Vere...... I arrived and it was safe down there. ”

Will raised an eyebrow, and rolled down, heading towards the cave.

Along the long rope, Wille loosened, fell, clenched, and sat back and forth, the glimmer of light in front of him seemed brighter in the dark cavern, but slowly turned into a bright circle.

There was a touch from beneath his feet, and Ver loosened the rope from the palm of his hand to the end, and Eletair stood in front of him in the light that fell from the hole in it.

"It's dark, can you see it?" Eltael said, her eyes shining like a cat.

A torch was raised from Wille's hand, "Do you need one?" ”

"No, holding the torch will only affect my movements, and ......," Eltael avoided, "the light of the fire is too bright in my state." I was in such a hurry that I forgot to bring some torches, but I didn't expect you to bring them. ”

Ver smiled and didn't speak, but held the torch and looked at the hole above, "It's hard to imagine that a mage would live in seclusion in this way, he is not in seclusion, he is burying himself. It's hard to be successful, he's still a quick master, such a high skylight, I'm afraid it's more breathable than access. ”

"Perhaps, it is possible that what I found is not the real 'gate'."

"Hmm...... Let's go inside, I think the doubts I have now should be answered inside. Will, with his torch, was the first to go out of the light and into complete darkness.

Eltayr gripped the hilt of his sword at his waist and glanced up again, then followed the light of Wiel's fire and explored ahead.
