47- Wake up and change
There was a jolt behind him, and Ver opened his eyes.
"I fell!"
He was hugging Ollie tightly, and the little guy's whole face was flushed.
"Uh~ I'm sorry." Quickly letting go of his hand, Ollie staggered two steps and fell to the ground, leaning at Will, sticking out his tongue and gasping for breath.
"Where are we?" Will looked around awkwardly.
Wille first heard the sound of running water, and looked to the side, and in the hole in the mountain wall, a stream of water flowed out, flowing in the shallow and narrow riverbed, and the water rippled, transparent as a mirror, and silky as silk.
Against the backdrop of the surrounding sparse trees, the pebbles in the river are sleek and solid, and the pale green makes it look like an emerald.
The breeze blows through the small flowers and plants nourished by the river, bringing the scent of earth and greenery. Refreshing, the shallow sunlight shines down from nowhere, so that the leaf veins are full of vitality and vitality in the morning mist.
The mountains on either side reminded Ver of a place, and although the gloomy darkness in his mind was gone, the black obelisk standing in the center of his vision convinced him that this was the small plain in front of the forest where he had obtained the scroll of the Spider Queen.
"A black obelisk?" After making sure that he was not missing an arm or leg, Wille woke Ollie and walked towards the sunlit obelisk in the middle of the plain.
In the sunlight, the obelisk in front of Wille's eyes was as smooth as glass and as black as ink.
Knocked with his hand, making a thumping sound.
Ollie looked familiar, stretched out his right paw, as if feeling a tingle, and shrank behind Will's feet, revealing only two large ears.
"Why is this thing standing here?" Weir couldn't help but shake his head, "What the hell is this thing for?" ”
After turning around, Wiel found nothing, there was not a single bulge or depression in the obelisk, it just stood there quietly. It makes Vere feel like he can't do it at all, so do you want to use it again?
"By the way, magic, how can I always forget! Next time, you must remember to do this and follow the local customs. However, I felt that the magic in my hands had grown again. ”
As he spoke, Ver placed his right hand on the obelisk and poured the magic in his right hand into the stele.
In the black obelisk, a few streamers flashed, and several phantoms appeared in front of him, from which a sound sounded.
…………
"What are you doing in a daze?! Don't hesitate! Haven't you always been resolute?! How about mother-in-law and mother this time! I'm your enemy! As before, come on! ”
"Star! I can't ......."
"Ville! Are you insulting me?! I! Starr. Beatback. Lauber, there is no need for the mercy of the enemy! ”
"Star, I need your help! Will?! Traitor to the Star Spirits! What are you doing to Sta?! ”
…………
At the same time as the apparition appeared, the brilliance of the handwriting slowly emerged on the dark surface of the obelisk, and then flowed into the runes in Weir's hand.
Burst! A push pushed Veel away, and the illusion vanished. The handwriting slowly spreads, and the obelisk slowly turns white, becomes transparent, and disappears from view. Weir sat on the ground, stunned as he stared at the obelisk in front of him and the words that came to mind.
'Proud autumn leaves fall
Forever treasured by the endless abyss
Gaze at the abandoned temple
but happily fell into a boundless slumber
A misty haze engulfed the sky
It's like a scarred memory and past
The song of the blue bird echoes in the breeze that lingers in the ears
Composed into a beautiful and poignant melody'
"The vision, Star? The statue woman said the same name...... Ville? Winnie probably knows there's a third person. Weir thought with a frown. Also What is this? It's inexplicable, I can't understand it at all...... What the hell is this thing trying to tell me? ”
As Vere pondered, Ollie came to Veil's feet and pointed to his stomach...... It was hungry, and when it looked down, Wiel's own stomach screamed.
The sun shone on the ground, shining on Weiel's body, and after a long time, Weier felt a trace of warmth, not as cold as before.
"The island seems to have changed, and I should probably go up to that hill to see it again." Rising from the ground and patting the dust off his body, Wille made his way and walked towards the hill.
The familiar gentle slopes and cliffs came into view, but Wille felt like a world away.
It's not just that Veel's mentality and purpose have changed, but everything in front of Veel's eyes has really changed. The beach beneath the cliffs is no longer littered with rocks, but a golden carpet of sand spreads along the coast, making it soft and delicate even when viewed from afar, with large and small shells dotted around the edges and refracting soft light.
A few long-beaked birds are feeding on the beach, and schools of fish are jumping and swimming in the shallow turquoise water, making the seabirds fly and chirp excitedly.
It's a vibrant landscape.
"This, is this really that, the place I've seen before?" Weir's eyes widened in surprise, everything in front of him was familiar and unfamiliar.
One thing Wille was sure of, though, that the island was no longer gloomy.
"What's that?"
Wille looked into the distance, and in the place where the sea and the sky met, a black dot appeared in his sight.
"If only there was a telescope......," Wille was stunned, "wasn't there fog on the sea?" He still vividly remembered that in the vision of the top of the mountain, when he flew in the sky, the surrounding sea was filled with fog.
But now on the sea, as far as the eye can see, you can clearly see the black spots that may be the shadow of another island.
But after a little thought, Wille rejoiced again, "If that's the case, I can go to sea!" Sea...... Hmm, how am I going down? Why can't you make a parachute in a famine?! Is it because it's just a 2D game and doesn't have the word height? ”
As for tying a rope down the cliff...... Hehe. Will didn't want to die yet, and after committing suicide, he didn't want to die.
"Wait, why should I go to sea?" Wiel pondered his plans for a long time to go to sea, but suddenly, he thought of this crucial question.
"The island has changed now, but it's for the better, but what's my business? So, what happened to Winnie and the Sacred Tree? Wiel looked into the woodland, a faint white light, and looked back at the top of the high mountain, "And, if Winnie is right, if I go back and talk to Winnie and let her open the portal, I should be able to ...... Homecoming! ”
Thinking of this, Weier jumped up happily, "Yes! Why didn't I react! Now I'm finally out of that hellish place! I can finally go back to the valley, I can finally go home! Haha, I'm going back! I'm going back! ”
As he spoke, he picked up Ollie and spun around, carrying his backpack and walking down the mountain, walking briskly and briskly.
Ollie didn't know why, and followed closely.
Wei Er felt that the depression and hardship of the past few days were like floating clouds in the sky now, fluttering lightly, as if there was nothing, the wind blowing, fleeting.
In a short time, he stepped into the dense forest, and the sunlight cast dappled shadows through the leaves. The small flowers in the forest and the colorful canopies in the light beams make the whole forest appear as a fairy tale.
As for the way back to the valley?
The pebble path at the foot of Wiel, though vague, is still recognizable. Ollie's Hound attribute hasn't worked yet, and he's snoring in Veel's backpack. The path of light emanating from the back of the hand is so clearly visible.
Of course, the most important thing is that when I turned a distance and went around to the other side of the mountain, I saw through the gap in the forest mist in front of me, a huge, white tree trunk and leaves, the texture of the stone and the light that emanated, which lit up the whole forest.
If that doesn't bring Wiel back to the Vale, then he's not a road idiot, he's an idiot.
"In that case, the sacred tree will be restored." Will was also amazed at first, but then he thought about it, this was a good thing, so his steps became more brisk.
The light of the sacred tree spread out in circles, gradually disappearing into the air, and the holy breath filled the left and right of Veel.
I don't know how many detours I made at that time, maybe the light group sensed the danger in the forest and deliberately avoided the spiders in the dense forest, so I walked for so long.
And now, under the protection of the sacred tree, it took only half a day for Veil to go straight to the valley.
When Wiel reached the edge of the valley and looked up at the sacred tree that covered his head, it was nearly night, and the sky burned red like a flame.
"My dear, isn't this sacred tree of stone?! How did it get so big? From a distance, he didn't feel it, but when he got closer, he was still deeply struck by the great miracle. The light of the sacred tree should be very dazzling, but Veel looked at it without the slightest discomfort.
"Okay, it's time to find a way down." Wiel rubbed his chin, stiff from surprise, and walked down the gentle slope. Most of the buildings in the valley are still in ruins, but because of the expansion of the sacred tree and the illumination of the light, the valley seems to be thriving.
To the surprise and surprise of Weier, who was holding a real green mushroom picked in the forest, the originally "hidden" cave appeared directly in front of him, and the appearance of the cave was different, and the entrance of the cave was surrounded by delicate stone frames.
What was originally just a downward ramp of the dirt slope has been transformed into a stone staircase. The stone walls of the cave are tightly clean, and the hedron lamps hanging on the walls emit a soft glow as Veel approaches.
Looking back in a new way, Wer turned out into the valley, behind the original statue.
Wille saw that around the statue, streams of white light flowed towards the statue, and Wille couldn't help but think of the scene when he saw the statue slowly drifting away like ashes after eating mushrooms for the first time. Now, the white light flows to the statue, although slowly, but the small cracks and broken parts are slowly recovering.
Walking to the waterhole under the statue, Weir found that the originally transparent spring water had been dyed with a faint gold.
The roots of the sacred tree behind him occupy the entire original square, but they are not destructive, but perfectly blended. The thick trunk still has a stony touch.
"How many people can hug this!"
It's a pity that I don't have my phone and camera with me, otherwise, when I get home, I must tell them about the miracles of this place.
"Alright, wake up Ollie, we're here, it's time to wake up our Winnie guide." Putting the little fox on the ground, the big tail moved, blocked the light with his two ears, and continued to sleep, "You've slept all the way, Ollie, why are you so sleepy all of a sudden?" ”
Regardless of Ollie, who was curled up under the tree, Ver touched his hand to the sacred tree and used magic to awaken Winnie as Winnie had said.
The diamond-shaped pattern on the back of the hand emits a faint light, echoing the sacred tree. Wiel took his hand away, opened his eyes, and looked between the waterhole and the sacred tree.
A cloud of light fluttered down from the branches of the sacred tree like the fallen leaves of the sacred tree, spun out a little star, and sprinkled it on the ground.
A figure appeared before Will's eyes.
