Act 117: Eternity XVIII
Medisa couldn't stop laughing, and Brando could only shake her head helplessly. However, he was more worried about the situation of Akane and Shiduo, so he turned back to the little princess and said, "Don't worry about this side for now, go over and take a look first, Shiduo and Akane are still over there." ”
The little princess of Yinjīng Ling nodded and put away her smile.
The sudden encounter took everyone by surprise, and Brando was a little worried that there would be more similar Chaos creatures lurking beneath the criss-crossed ice, but he quickly dispelled that fear.
Akane sat down against the ice wall, her face was slightly red, because the lord was very close to her, so she didn't dare to take a breath, in fact, the bruise on her shoulder itself was not a big deal, but it was Brando's actions that made her heart pound.
Brando checked the wound on the red-haired girl's shoulder and breathed a sigh of relief: "It's okay, it's okay." ”
The mountain girl lowered her head and let out a soft breath, but the ease she felt was obviously not the same as Brando's.
"I'm sorry, Akane, I'm sorry, Mr. Earl......" Shiduo stood beside the two of them, holding her thick notebook with her hands crossed, and looked at the two of them apologetically with some apologies.
"So what's going on?" Veronica interrupted her and asked, standing with Mephistopheles on the side of the landslide - farther away, Haruzer, Firath, Charr, and the Cruz's eldest son had cleared the broken ice, and when the huge ice had been removed by Charr's spell, the silver-white corpse under the snow was gradually revealed.
Brando glanced at the monster. The thing had apparently not been stoned to death by the collapse of the ice, and the corpse's skin was far less shiny than it had been alive, but dull and gray. It was as if the surface of the metal was covered with a layer of frost.
His heart suddenly moved slightly.
This thing died because the magic in its body was depleted-
No, it's not quite accurate to say that it is dead, it is just a state of some kind of dormancy. Once the new magic is extracted, this thing may come back to life again.
Brando frowned, he glanced back at the pool of humanoid silver liquid not far away, he had never heard of a similar monster in the game, not even a similar one, this ability was so terrifying that it couldn't help but make people shudder.
Not far away at this moment, Firas whistled, and the lucky young man couldn't help but be a little surprised when he looked at the corpse: "Haruzer. Your Royal Highness, have you noticed that this thing looks like a disgraced person? ”
"The Lost Person?" Leonerit? Aurelius looked at him puzzled.
"Ah, I forgot, Your Highness, the eldest son, you should not have encountered these things when you entered the forest from the direction of Wallendenburg. All in all, it's some nightmare, but it's surprisingly similar to this monster. Firas was slightly stunned. Then he replied suddenly.
Laurena nodded in agreement: "It's a little." However, she glanced at her fiancé a little strangely, since she had experienced such a scene in her dream, she really didn't know how Firas could be so indifferent to the eldest son of the emperor who had been 'killed' by herself.
"It seems that the nameless people who wander in the frost-stained forest have nothing to do with these things." Brando replied, slightly surprised that the Buga texts in the Amber Sword only dealt with the reasons for the Lost One. But bewitching them into depravity has always been an unsolved puzzle.
For now, however, the answer seems to be imminent.
The corpse of the thing was melting, as if it were melting ice under the heat of summer, and the liquid of the silver sè flowed down one by one, and in the blink of an eye, it merged into a puddle of silver sè under its body, and this scene made Brando's previous guess completely confirmed.
He raised his head, as if he had finally finished thinking, and asked Shiduo, "Where did you meet this, Miss Shiduo?" ”
"I'm sorry......" Miss Scholar blushed a little and replied ashamedly, "I didn't meet it somewhere, and I don't know how to describe it...... Seriously, it was supposed to be dead. ”
"Dead?" Feras looked back at the corpse of the monster that was turning into a pool of mercury at his feet, and he pointed to the thing and asked, "You mean, this thing will come back to life?" ”
But Brando interrupted him and skipped the question: "How did it come back to life?" ”
"I'm a little curious...... I put a magic moonstone in it......" Shiduo replied with a red face, "I'm sorry, it's all my fault for acting without permission, and I was hurt by Akane." ”
She said as she glanced at Akane gratefully, if it weren't for the half-dragon girl's timely response, it is estimated that the monster's first counterattack would have killed her.
She's a scholar, not a warrior.
Brando understood the origin of this thing, no wonder a living dusk seed popped out of a pile of corpses tens of thousands of years ago, no wonder this thing was so weak, it turned out that it only absorbed the power of a magic moonstone.
Although the Magic Moonstone is a medium-quality magic crystal, the magic it provides is only at the level of a wizard who has just entered the golden tier in his heyday.
He was a little helpless, although he didn't know how Miss Scholar noticed that this thing would extract magic and regenerate itself, but it was too reckless, in the Black Forest, especially in this kind of place, any careless move would kill people.
"Miss Shiduo, now you should understand, this is the outer periphery of the Hibernator Temple, and the monster you encountered before is likely to be the Dusk Species that invaded this world with the Dusk Dragon tens of thousands of years ago, and it is a high-level chaos creature, and their power cannot be guessed by you and me, so please be careful." Brando sighed and reminded.
"I'm sorry, Lord Earl, I already know......"
Brando glanced at her, and was embarrassed to continue to scold, after all, the other party was still a child who participated in the expedition for the first time. You must know that when he first ventured back then, he made a lot more stupid than this.
"Brando. What exactly are these things? Veronica listened to the conversation between the young men before finally asking.
"I don't know," Brando shook his head, "I've never heard of anything like it. However, it should be certain that they are twilight species. These things are a bit weird, and they don't seem to actually die, but go into hibernation. They will extract mana from the outside world and slowly regenerate ......"
"Immortal?" Everyone present gasped.
The spirits of the undead of Madara seek eternity, but they say that the eternity they seek is nothing more than what is called a fleeting immortality. There is only one thing in this world that is eternal, and that is chaos.
The followers of the One Nation Society are fanatically superstitious about this, believing that believing in chaos and becoming one with the Dragon of Dusk is the only way to immortality.
The Four Temples had always dismissed this as nothing more than ridiculous nonsense, but now it seems to be a ready-made example.
The eternal twilight seed.
There was a momentary silence in the ice cave.
"It's against ......," Veronica was a little speechless.
"Don't be superstitious, it's just a guess." Brando stared at the monsters. I don't believe it, these twilight creatures who fought head-on with the frost giants tens of thousands of years ago are just sleeping after death, the frost giants are the most brave and warlike golden people, even they can't kill these monsters, it's hard for Brando to imagine that there are still people in this era who can completely destroy these monsters.
He shook his head, and at the same time asked in the world of the jīng gods, "Lord St. Osor." I know you're there, have you ever seen anything like that? ”
"I haven't seen it, but I always feel like I've heard something like that there." The voice of the jīng spirit imperial sister came immediately.
"Are you sure?"
"Are you sure it's not called 'like', are you stupid?"
Brando shrugged.
He had to reassure the others: "But we have at least one good news, it doesn't look like they're lurking under this glacier." Instead, they fell in the fierce battle of tens of thousands of years ago, and as long as we don't provoke them, it doesn't seem like a big problem. ”
"Tens of thousands of years, Mr. Brando, are you sure they won't slowly collect the magic that is free in the air and come back to life?" Lorenna questioned, a little puzzled.
"Do you feel magic in the air?" Brando asked rhetorically.
Everyone was slightly stunned, and then realized that the space in this ice cave seemed to be terrifyingly clean, and the magic that was everywhere in Vaynd's world was actually gone, Veronica and Mephistopheles changed their faces in an instant, only Brando was slightly indifferent—he had already learned this from Charles.
Wizards are far more sensitive to magic than warriors.
"What's going on?" Firas was the first to ask.
"Seal." Veronica glanced at Brando, her face a little solemn: "This is the seal of the Hibernator Temple, it turns out that these things are sealed under this temple, and after the magic is isolated, they will never be resurrected-"
"How is that possible!" Hearing this, Shiduo couldn't help but widen his eyes: "Legion Leader, this is the temple of Milos, can it be said that even the gods can't eradicate these monsters?" ”
When she said this, her face suddenly changed, and she subconsciously closed her mouth, feeling a little chilling.
Everyone else looks the same-
Brando glanced at Firas and Lorenna, and a solemn look appeared on both of their faces, and Veronica was the same, the female god of war of the Cruz people suddenly thought of a possibility:
"Brando."
"I'm ......"
"You say, will Enrik want to open a portal here and connect the lower layers of the Brimstone River to the Sea of Magic......"
"If that's the case......" Miss Scholar's face turned pale.
If that happens, when these monstrous monsters are fully unleashed, when they re-enter the world of Vaund, they will forever break free from the shackles imposed on them by the Hibernation Temple.
Brando couldn't help but swallow a mouthful of saliva when he thought of this scene.
All he could think of was one sentence:
The Returning Twilight Legion –
