Chapter 24: The Legend of the Arch

The Arch of the Seven Gods of the Free City-State is a paradise for the gods lost on earth for those who have enough gold in their money bags, and nothing can be bought here. Of course, it's not just happiness that can be bought with gold coins, but in such a melting pot of the sea, there are all kinds of people, so all kinds of rare and rare things can be found here.

In this way, gold should be the most important thing in this city.

Yes and no. At least once you have the gold, you have to have the life to enjoy it. As a free city-state, almost no one would be rejected by it, so the Arch of the Seven Gods could not help but become a hiding place for filth. But fortunately, those guys who are hiding here, no matter how vicious they are, will also restrain their temperament, after all, few people have been able to survive under the "divine punishment" for more than half a month.

"Is that the Arch of the Seven Gods? He's meowing, so magnificent! Yu Yi stood on the bow of the boat, pointed to the magnificent colossus in the distance and shouted excitedly. It was true that he had heard of the arches formed by the colossus before, but when he saw them in real life, he couldn't help but let out a sigh of emotion.

"Without this style, how can you attract those fat and oily rich people? There are more rich people caught, and the city will be more magnificent once it gets rich, and it will be richer after being magnificent, and it will be more magnificent after being rich......" As an old bird, Ou Li is not so energetic, he held his chin and complained.

"Stop, stop, can you say less bad things? You've never been beaten by hooligans, have you? Stretching out his hand, Yu Yi knocked on the back of the other party's head, "Come, tell my brother what those statues are?" ”

"How do I know who those unclothed people are, and who they love." After being taught a lesson, the thief replied angrily.

At this time, the shadow who had been standing aside quietly and letting the sea breeze blow spoke: "The arch of the seven gods, the arch is naturally a god statue, how can it be a human?" ”

"Listen, listen, that's what really informed." As soon as the female mage's voice fell, Yu Yi cheered. After all, she is now his hero, and besides, her hero seems to be losing her temper with him for some reason recently......

The silver-haired woman didn't bother with his praise, and then continued: "The seven gods are the arch of the seven gods, which are the sea, freedom, wealth, war, luck, equality, and courage. There are three arches, each of which consists of two idols standing in three different directions outside the port. ”

In such popular science, Ou Li was also dumbfounded. "Interesting, there is still such a saying."

"You also have the face to say, and you thought you were an old bird......" Yu Yi smacked his lips and glanced at the little brother beside him. However, it is understandable that Ou Li does not know this knowledge, after all, no matter how experienced a professional gamer is, he rarely explores such a thing, after all, the player still plays this game, and the guide is not a travel guide.

Seeing that someone was listening carefully to what he was saying, Shadow did not discourage them, and continued: "Three arches, the middle arch is composed of the spears and swords in each hand crossed by the statue of Hegarbas, the god of war, and Rebecca, the goddess of liberty. The city was originally taken from the rulers by a force of sea people, wanderers, and even pirates, and since then, they have been free. Therefore, the freedom of this city is inseparable from war.

The one on the left is composed of Ou Rui, the goddess of wealth, and Meredith, the goddess of luck. It's easy to understand this, people from all over the world, no matter where they come from, agree on a truth, the gold coins that fall will always roll to the lucky ones. Among the leaders of the original battle for freedom, there was an out-and-out gambler, but he was also a pivotal guy. In order to commemorate him, followers often opened casinos in the city. They are smart, decent, and can make a lot of money. ”

"What about the other one?" Jianying's voice suddenly stopped, and Yu Yi couldn't help asking.

Seeing that it was him who was asking, Ying pointed straight ahead, and his tone was a little unkind: "Open your eyes and see, you can't see those two guys hooking shoulders?" The two of them are Yale, the god of equality, and Doveryer, the god of courage. The biggest benefit of the harbor city is trade, as well as the major chambers of commerce and auction houses in the city. So, fairness, equality is indispensable, in short, they believe in that. And courage is the greatest contributor to the Seven Gods Arch to be like this. As for Dover Earle being put together with Yale, perhaps the architects thought that with courage they could pursue equality. ”

Behind the seemingly self-explanatory arch of the statue, there is such a story. Several people on the bow of the boat couldn't help but listen attentively, and Bai Siling, who was next to the silver-haired woman, looked at her with admiration on her face.

"So we're about to enter the harbor through the gates of equality and courage now?" Yu Yi asked.

Drowsand, who was sitting on the railing drinking ale, shook the empty flask and replied, "Yes, not too lucky. ”

"Does it have anything to do with luck?" Ou Li turned around.

"Aesop, I knew you didn't understand again." The one-armed man smiled smugly, "This is the custom of this sea city, because of the strong current that exists between the three arches, ships usually can't choose the arches they want to enter. The only way to enter is to see how the currents change. Three arches, the middle arch enters, and the cost of docking, maintenance, and replenishment of ships is the normal price. The arch on the left is free of charge for up to 100 gold coins. As for the arch we are going to enter now......"

Before Drow Sander could finish speaking, Ollie wailed, "Damn! Double the fee! The god of equality, not equal at all......"

"That's true, haha, I didn't know anything about the Seven Gods before today." When the strong man saw the appearance of the deed owner, he laughed heartlessly.

Yu Yi didn't care too much about the cost or anything, anyway, when he looked at Ou Li, he knew that he was full of fat and water, and it was good to scrape it. What he was more concerned about was that Shadow hadn't finished speaking: "Seven gods...... One less. And what about the god of the sea? ”

"She? Isn't she standing there? Once you're in the archway, you'll be able to see her proud. Needless to say, the people in Haicheng knew what god they feared the most. Shadow stroked his long silver hair and said, after speaking, he said something, his expression was cold, and he turned his head to the other side.

Yu Yi didn't know if he was nervous, he always felt that when he talked about the goddess of the sea, his eyes seemed to be colder than usual. Maybe it's a delusion, he himself is relieved. Indeed, after the battle with the Abyss Demon King a few days ago, he had always had countless ideas about the background and past of his new hero.

After all, no matter what the story of the shadow is, it must have a lot to do with him. Moreover, he can be very sure that the origin of Shadow Jue is definitely not simple, first of all, she knows the identity of his [Disorderly Person], or ability, and secondly, level, top heroes, Ou Li said that SS-level heroes are almost all those legends, epics, or geniuses.

Either way, in the eyes of the player, these guys are the ones who can control the main orbit of the game world. As the owner of the SS-level hero, Yu Yi only felt a little fluttering.

Although after concluding the contract, Shadow was temporarily downgraded to level 1 and started from scratch. However, SS-level heroes, the speed of growth is undoubted, and it won't be long before this battle mage will be that battle mage again.

However, as he suddenly gained such a powerful power, coupled with the fact that he himself had awakened the BUG-like ability of [Disorderly Person], Yu Yi felt a little empty in his heart while he was happy. It felt like forgetting to do something very important...... So, he remembered that the shadow had mentioned that his mission. Perhaps, that is the main quest of the player's fate.

Anyway, he was curious to know what it was now. As soon as he turned his head, he wanted to ask Ying again, but remembering the result of the last inquiry, he hesitated, and it was just a moment before someone spoke before him.

"Beauty, look, look, how did the god of equality break one of his toes? This city is not poor, is it, no one is going to repair it? Such a title sounds like the mouth of a frivolous prodigal, but in fact, the person who is questioning is the Lori Priest Lilith.

"That? From the moment the idol was erected, it was already like that. Shadow shook her head and replied. Obviously, she was not too disgusted by a little girl calling herself like this, and if she were a man with a flirtatious look, she would have answered with a fireball.

"Huh? Why? Lilith looked at the idol over there, frowned, and asked again.

"It's simple, even those who build the statue don't want to lie to themselves." Ollie jumped out at this time and interjected.

The little priest who was holding his arm and pinching his chin still didn't understand: "What are you lying to yourself? ”

"Everyone should know that there is no such thing as perfect equality in this world." This time, Ying rarely answered the little girl's question in a very gentle voice.

"Oh!" Lilith clapped her hands and said with a long sigh, "No, I feel uncomfortable when I look at it, I want to treat him!" With that, the priest began to summon healing orbs of light, throwing them out one by one. As a result, one by one, the balls of light fell into the sea.

Ou Li was also laughed at with interest for a while before he stepped in to stop it: "Crazy girl, stop, don't waste your magic!" Zolsand, come here, carry this little girl away, you dare to waste the magic core! ”

The trio on the side was already in a mess, and on the other hand, the three people on Yu Yi's side were also the owner and the deed, and their performance was diametrically opposed to quiet. Bai Siling is because she can't speak, and she doesn't like to speak, but Yu Yi has something in her heart.

Unconsciously, the picture of the conversation with Ying the night before came to mind again:

"I'm sorry for making a contract with me in that situation. Following a deed owner like me, is it a little wronged by you? ”

The female mage was very frank: "Yes, only when you conclude a contract with a contract owner who is much weaker than you, you will be confiscated by the power of the contract. ”

“……”

For a long time, the night breeze stopped blowing, and only the sound of the waves remained.

"However, it is also good that the temporary confiscation of power does not mean that it is completely starting from scratch. As long as you fight a little bit, I will recover quickly. "She always speaks like that...... Be realistic.

"Sorry, that's really causing you trouble......"

"No need to say such stupid things anymore, since the contract between us can be successfully concluded, it means that I have accepted you." After finishing speaking, the female mage seemed to finally feel that her tone was a little inappropriate, and added: "It's not about saving my life, I didn't expect you to be able to resurrect me." I just made the decision according to my heart's will......"

Before he could speak, he heard the female mage say again: "At that time, I even thought that it would be good if your contract could have come earlier...... Anyway, I won't leave you again this time, even if I become your deed, it doesn't matter. ”

"Thank you...... Thank you so much. Speaking of this, he wanted to ask that question even more: "Ei, can you tell me about our past now?" What's the matter? What is my mission? ”

"That's what you're asking about? There's nothing else to say, right? The female mage moved her gaze slightly and looked at the sea view on the side, "Okay, I'm already sleepy, you should rest early." ”

Fools can feel the displeasure revealed in the other party's words. "If you don't say it, don't say it, I know, you still want me to think about it myself. Then I won't ask, and you won't be upset. Okay, right? ”

"I said, I'm sleepy." The answer remained firm, and the cabin slammed shut.

It seems that since then, Shadow has not given him a good look.

Looking back, Yu Yi inadvertently glanced at Bai Siling, and then looked at the movie, he suddenly understood something. He patted Shadow lightly on the shoulder.

"Lord Deed, what do you command?"

"That, Shadow ...... That, are you upset because of the kiss date? I really don't know about the other parties, so I'm here to save you...... Sorry, but you're really angry, you can ...... Not?! ”

"Wow!"

Almost at the same time, the three people on the other side also screamed, but the reasons for the exclamations were different. Drow Sander and Ollie were in the middle of the sea, and the pods of dolphins that had just been healed by the magic orb suddenly jumped up and carried their ships out of the current towards the leftmost arch. And Lilith's exclamation was because she finally saw the picture she had been waiting for......

"I'm not angry anymore." Shadow gently wiped her red lips with the back of her hand and said, "Flatten." ”
