Chapter Twenty-Four: The Vanishing Beauty
It is said that in the Battle of the Extreme Cold, the Beauty was surrounded by the magical magic unleashed by Imola. At that time, I saw huge waves rolling up on the sea, accompanied by strong hurricanes, and the whole ship was suspended in the air. The hurricane protected the Beauty from being mercilessly engulfed by an avalanche.
"Hurry to the cabin, everyone!! Hurriedly!!! The old cannon hugged the mast beside him tightly, and shouted to everyone with all his strength. But in the midst of the strong wind, he suddenly found that although the wind was powerful and fierce, the beautiful was unusually stable in it, and the hull did not shake violently. He thought to himself that maybe he could escape the deck and hide in the cabin to escape this strange hurricane.
But to feel the power of the hurricane on deck, it was too great, and the shouts of the old guns seemed to be unable to penetrate the overwhelming wind. Some of the sailors stood on the deck and couldn't grasp anything around them, only to see them cry out loudly, and be swept up by the wind mercilessly, and disappear into the hurricane.
"Beautiful, beautiful, hurry up here." Big Brother Sihai desperately grabbed the beautiful hand and walked to the cabin, he turned around and continued to shout towards the deck: "Second brother, hurry up and follow!" "The two brothers are old sailors who have been at sea for many years, but in such a powerful wind, they can only stagger and barely cling to the side of the ship to walk towards the cabin.
But Meili didn't want to leave immediately, she was dragged forward by the big brother of the four seas, and looked strangely at the wind that was blowing.
"This wind...... Why does this wind look so much like our elven clan's Xuanfeng spells? Meili kept muttering in her heart, and there was a wave of doubt between her eyebrows.
At this time, Old Cannon and Delmar had also come to the cabin against the hurricane. "Let's count the number of people and see if there are any brothers who haven't come down yet." The old cannon stabilized the position, and commanded everyone to act quickly, so as not to leave the brothers behind.
"Report to the sir, the people are basically here, and some sailors are missing." Doom, who had been in the cabin early in the morning, hurriedly reported to the old cannon, "I think they must have been blown away by this strange wind." Speaking of the end of the world, he could only shake his head regretfully.
"Where's the secretary?" Lao Cannon is quite concerned about his brother who has been fighting with him for many years.
"I'm here. Hey. The secretary had been hiding in the cabin early in the morning, and he had half of his head peeking out from behind the barrel, with a hippie face.
"You have suffered a thousand cuts, our brothers are fighting bravely against the enemy outside, your old man is good, he hid here early." The second brother of the four seas seemed very unhappy with him.
"Hehe, didn't you notice that the wind was blowing, it's really an afterthought. I thought something was wrong early in the morning, so I asked for self-preservation. The secretary laughed and said, "No, you're fine." ”
"You !!" The second brother raised his fist and wanted to wave it at the secretary. The two brothers from all over the world are strong in blood, and they can't see the people who cower the most.
"Alright, alright!" The old cannon grabbed the second brother of the four seas, "This strange wind is raging outside, and I don't know where we will be blown away by it." Let's rest in the cabin for the time being, and wait for the wind to pass. ”
"Uncle Cannon." Beauty seems to have something to say.
"How?" The old cannon replied.
"I think this gust of wind looks like our elves."
"Huh?" There was an exclamation from the cabin.
"You elves?" Delmar asked. He was also surprised by Beauty's sudden answer, could it be that the Goldenbeard David had something to do with the elves?
Meili took over the conversation, although she looked a little uncertain between her eyebrows, but her tone was very firm, "Yes, I think this wind belongs to our elf clan." Have you forgotten the magic I used to move the Beauty? This wind is the same as the one I use, it is our clan's Xuanfeng spell, but its power is much greater than mine. I think there must be an archmage of our elven race helping us. ”
"Archmage? How could you elves end up in this barren and extremely cold place? Doom asked.
"Do you need to ask?" The secretary leaned against the barrel, shook the cable in his hand, and replied with a grin: "They always like to appear in unexpected places, you see we suddenly found this beautiful on that broken island, and now it is strange that it has been blown by a gust of wind." You are concerned about where the wind will blow us. You look all around you are surrounded by this wheal, do you know what is going on outside? Maybe we're still where we are. ”
"In situ? No way, the Xuanfeng spell must have allowed us to leave the Extremely Cold Land. This is an ancient displacement spell of our elves. "Beautiful came out to answer questions.
"But the secretary is right about one thing, we must be ready to fight at any time. I always felt that the wind was coming prepared, and that there must be something wrong with the place where it was going to take us. "In the face of the unknown, there is always an inexplicable sense of fear. At this time, the old cannon looked worried, not knowing what would happen next. "Doomsday, the four seas, you check the artillery equipment, and then count the number of people, if the wind stops for a while, you can fight at any time."
"Yes, sir." So saying, Doomsday and the four seas went down to work.
"Sir, there's one thing I can't figure out." Delmar suddenly asked the old gun.
"You say."
"Like the secretary said just now, don't you think that the elves will show up every time we need them? Is there something strange about it? "Delmar was still thinking about the elves.
"Hey." The old cannon sighed, stretched out his hand and grabbed the beams in the cabin, looking a little depressed: "That's what I'm worried about." ”
"That's not right." Beauty seems to have thought of something.
"What's wrong?" Everyone suddenly felt that there was no clue about Meimei, and asked in unison.
Meili lowered her head and pondered for a moment, raised her hand and rubbed her head, and said slowly: "Could it be that it wants to take me back to the land of the dragon?" ”
"Huh? The Land of Dragons? There was an exclamation from the cabin.
Delmar stepped forward and grabbed her beautiful shoulders and asked eagerly, "What did you say?" The Land of Dragons? ”
Beauty struggled to break free of Delma: "What are you doing, yes, it's the land of dragons." ”
"Beauty, should you tell us why this wind is taking us to the land of dragons?" The old cannon also asked on the side.
"When I first saw this wind, I felt that it was unusual, like the Xuanfeng spell we usually use. However, the energy of this wind is by no means something that ordinary elves can release. I've been wondering just now......" Meili began to murmur as she thought.
"You hurry up and say it, you want to kill us in a hurry. It's a blessing or a curse, but you should give a letter. The secretary became impatient again, and jumped up from the barrel.
"I guess it's our high priest who casts the Dharma. She is the only one who can perceive my beauty. ”
"High priest?" There was another exclamation of amazement.
"Yes, High Priest. As I told you before, the spells of our elves are only taught to women, and men have no spells except our lords. And the woman with the strongest spell is our High Priest. ”
"Then your high priest saved you this time and summoned you back, so I guess we will be treated with great hospitality. Hahaha. The secretary suddenly became aware that everything had fallen into place, and fantasized that he could eat and drink a lot right away.
"Well...... "Meili seems to be a little speechless.
"Are you ......" Delmar seemed to see the difficulty in Meimei's heart, and hurriedly asked, but was interrupted by the end of the side counting weapons.
"Behold, the wind has dispersed!!"
Everyone hurriedly leaned in front of the window and looked out, and from a distance it seemed that they could see a piece of land, which was lush and covered with dense vegetation, and a large mountain towered into the sky, and the top of the mountain was covered with snow. But there seemed to be some fog rising around the land, and it didn't look so real through the window, and it was dimly impossible to see what was on it.
"Let's go up to the deck and have a look." Saying that, the old cannon led everyone to the deck quickly.
When I came to the deck, everything suddenly became clear, and I saw a continent stretching endlessly, and there was no end in sight. The entire continent was surrounded by a white mist like cotton wool, and the lingering white mist was like a barrier, and it was impossible to see through. What's behind this white mist? The Beauty stopped quietly in the distance, and everyone seemed to be stunned by the sight in front of them, frowning one by one, but not saying a word.
Suddenly, Delmar seemed to think of something: "This...... This white mist. ”
"What? Have you seen it? The secretary asked curiously.
"Yes, like what I saw in the col. Lingering, intertwined like cotton wool. Delmar remembered what she had seen in the col when she went to visit the tall mage, and it was almost exactly what she saw. He paused for a moment and continued, "Listen to the maid beside the high-rise mage, this white mist will make people hallucinate, everyone must be careful. ”
At this time, Beauty seemed extremely calm, and no one here knew the white mist better than her. "Don't worry, everyone, this white mist is a protective wall for our elves to protect themselves, in order to block the enemies who trespass without permission. I think if the high priest had put this wind, she must have her intentions, and she wouldn't have embarrassed us. Meimei's last few words seemed a little hesitant, did she still have any concerns in her heart?
But everyone was still immersed in the scene in front of them, and they didn't seem to notice it. Delmar continued, "Beautiful, what are we going to do now?" ”
"Let me do it." As she spoke, she gestured with her hands in front of her chest, closed her eyes, recited a spell, and suddenly stretched out her right hand and pointed at the land. I saw a light emanating from between my fingers, shooting straight towards the white mist.
Everyone looked in the direction of the light, but there seemed to be no movement. The secretary couldn't bear it anymore: "Hey, I said beautiful." Your spells don't work. Why didn't there be any movement at all? ”
As he was talking, suddenly there was a sound in the distance, like the sound of waves crashing. I saw that the white mist in the distance was slowly separated from the middle by an invisible force. The sea also rose with huge waves, and the water was split into two huge walls along with the white mist, revealing a wide road.
"Ah!!h Everyone was really stunned by this sudden sight, and let out incredible exclamations.
I saw that the road stretched all the way to the depths of the continent, and I don't know what was scattered on the road, emitting a little starlight.
"Let's go. Let me show you my home. With that, she took the lead and walked off the boat.
Beauty leads the way ahead, striding forward, sometimes jumping, as if the feeling of coming home makes her very relaxed. But everyone followed the beauty, but they seemed cautious, and they were worried that something strange would pop up around them. They covered each other as they walked forward, but Beauty began to look impatient in front of her: "You should hurry up, and I will take you to our high priest in a moment." After saying the three words of high priest, there seemed to be a trace of worry between Meimei's eyebrows, and there seemed to be something in her heart that worried her too.
Under the urging of beauty, everyone also accelerated the pace of progress. They passed through the white mist and sea walls divided by mysterious forces, and entered a dense forest that stretched up the vast mountains in front of them, seemingly as far as the eye could see.
"We've crossed over here and we're there." Mei said, pointing to the mountain in front of her.
"Huh? You can't be serious, right? It's going to be dead. The secretary began to complain.
The old cannon interrupted him: "Hey, don't complain, if you come, you will be safe." After a while, everyone immediately responded. ”
"It's okay, we'll be able to get through it from the mountainside." Beauty continued.
So saying, the group continued on their way to the mountainside, and sure enough, there was a path that seemed to lead to the back of the mountain. Everyone walked along the mountainside road under the beautiful guidance, and after a while they came to the back side of the mountain.
Everyone stood on the mountainside and looked down, and was shocked by the sight in front of them. Below was an island city, a huge city standing in the middle of a lake. There are four wide stone embankments around the lake to communicate with the land outside the lake, and the stone embankments leave a horizontal canal at certain intervals, and a suspension bridge is erected on the canal, which can be collected and released at any time. The stone embankment road facing them was particularly wide, and it ran through the center of the city, which divided the city into two parts. In the center of the city, stands a huge temple. The city is also dotted with large and small houses and temples. All in all, it looks like a great city from the future.
Seeing everyone's surprised looks, Meili looked a little proud: "How is it?" We're powerful elves. That huge temple in the middle is our Pyramid of the Moon. The huge road that runs through our city is ......"
"What's it? You should hurry up! The secretary was an anxious man, though he was also surprised by what he saw.
"It's death~death~great~way~!!"
"Huh? What the? Avenue of Death??? ”
