Chapter 39: The Return
"yes, have you already decided?"
Who, is talking?
"It's different from what I expected, but it's fine."
Familiar sounds......
"They're probably coming back, take Heroda with you."
Hilda ...... My lord?!
"In addition, it's time for the Nordic warriors to wake up."
A whistling wave of air scraped against the petrified case, peeling it off its still warm skin.
Under the gray stone chips, a pair of eyes gradually opened.
"What, is there anything else?"
Wiy's attention was withdrawn from Českfried, and he said to Garon.
"This time, I was going to weaken the strength of the Hades Army and save another person......"
"The twin gods are not something you can fight against now, as for the one hundred and eight demon stars-",
With a clattering sound of Vie's palm, a spark ignited, and the unusually strong light quickly dispelled the thick black fog floating around the platform.
The position of the three of them was a large floating board composed of numerous concentric circles of rings, under which there was no supporting object to maintain the weight of the floating board, but there was no sign of the floating board shaking.
Garon didn't care, though, and was even more shocked by the sight on the ground as the black fog subsided.
Lowering his head, he vaguely saw the large underground space through the gaps in the floor tiles.
Nearly five times larger than a floating platform, covered with eight or nine layers of black plant vines, or more developed plant roots.
They are intertwined, moving, and some of them swell from time to time, as if they are transporting nutrients.
Where these roots gather and rise, there are huge black calluses. Looking through the film-like cocoons, Garon could probably guess what was growing inside.
"Demon Star, and ...... New Vestments. ”
"The twin gods left behind their robes and distributed a portion of their power to the warriors through these mythical monsters. As long as they completely absorb that part of the power, their strength can rise to another level. ”
Vie glanced at Garon and stopped the other man's movements,
"Don't hit their attention if you don't want to recall those two guys early."
Then Vie snapped his fingers,
"As for the person you're looking for, it should be him."
One of the rings gradually accelerated, bringing out a black cube from the deep darkness.
The surface of the two-person black cube seems to be contaminated with a strong gravitational pull, distorting the light.
"This is a special cage used by the Immortal King to hold prisoners, and although it is a temporary prop, it is not something that mortals can open.
If you don't have the key, I advise you to give up. ”
Keys?
Garon pondered for a moment and took a box from his bosom,
"What is that thing?" Vay frowned, and he could feel a hint of Hades in the box, as well as a hint of perfume.
Garon opened it, and saw a handful of small things lying quietly inside.
The monolithic black wings are very similar to Hades's divine cloak, but they have shrunk by an unknown number of times, and the tips of the wings are like needles, slender and sharp.
Garon flipped his hand, and the small black wing flew out and landed on the black cube case.
"Click-",
The almost substantial gravitational field on the surface of the black cube gradually disappeared, and the vague shell gradually became clear, and several cracks began to spread out from the position where the black wing was nailed.
After a high-pitched phoenix roar, red flames leaked out of the cracks, devouring the weakened outer wall little by little.
It wasn't until most of the Black Cube was burned that the figure sitting in the flames became clear.
"It's finally a bit of a catch."
Garon sighed and walked towards the Black Cube.
Where is this?
Czechfried couldn't help but feel anxious when he saw Garon dragging the man up from the flames, and then caught a glimpse of the young man in the black robe not far away.
He is...... Lord Wie,
No, no, he's Hades!
"Czech Fried, go."
Just as the Nordic warrior was about to attack, a dark shadow came to him and fell heavily on him.
The bronze skin of the man had a white coat on the upper body, and the lower half was dark blue, his breath was very weak, and there were many wounds on his limbs and chest, which was obviously in a state of serious injury.
But Garon didn't seem to have any special intention of taking care of him, and threw the phoenix to Czech Fried, and said lightly.
"That's my comrade-in-arms, please take him for a ride, we're leaving."
Garon walked to the other side and carried Heroda on his shoulder with one hand.
"But he—" TCzech Fried hesitated, tearing a torn strip of cloth from his body, tying the phoenix behind him, and glancing at Wie, apparently still not at ease.
"The details are being said on the road, now it's time for us to go."
The whole time, Vey didn't explain anything, he straightened his arm, and a fluorescent circular door appeared where his index finger was pointing.
Garon nodded at Viy, and walked over, followed by Czech Fried.
Although it is not clear what the agreement between the two is, at a time when the strong enemy has no will to fight and the monarch is unconscious, Czech Fried is not willing to make trouble.
Taking a deep look at the man in his cloak, Czechofried was the first to pass through the door.
On the contrary, Garon, although he was ahead of the curve, seemed to hesitate about something, and did not move on.
"What's wrong, is there anything else you forgot?"
Viy asked with a smile, his pale face had faded with blood,
Garon turned his face sideways and said,
"I've almost forgotten about the things in the dream world, and now all that remains in my mind are bits and pieces of fragments."
"Since it's a dream scene, it's not a good thing to forget it." Wei Yi said lightly, "Or do you still have any questions that I need to answer?" ”
Garon shook his head and said slowly,
"It's just a little irritating.
At that moment, a woman whispered in my ear every day about her teacher, an old man with profound knowledge, long-term vision, and precise judgment.
I don't really believe that this kind of person really exists in this world, but she has said it a lot so many times, and occasionally it makes me feel a little dissatisfied and curious, thinking that one day I will see it with my own eyes.
Is the legendary sage really that perfect? ”
"And how do you feel now?"
Vie laughed to himself, holding on to the Immortal's sword to maintain his position.
"It's just an old man who is dying."
Garon snorted and headed towards the Gate of Light,
"Especially for the disciples, it is really a headache to have such a teacher. But as she said, if there really are heroes in the world, it is probably ...... That's what it looks like. ”
[Even if the swords face each other one day, I can't find a reason to hate him.] 】
The light gate dissipated, and the hundreds of lights on the ring float gradually faded from the outside to the inside, leaving only a standing figure.
He stretched out his hand, slowly raised the long sword in his hand, reversed the blade of the sword and pressed the tip of the sword against his chest, and said in an imperceptible voice,
"My disciple, I'm going to leave it to you—Gemini."
