Chapter 256: Disaster Foreshadowing
"You say, it's not tragic. ”
In the end, the strong man couldn't help but shudder, and his eyes were full of fear.
"Well, it's tragic. Vincent wondered if it was because he had too high expectations, or if he hadn't been able to see it in person, but he didn't think it was that miserable.
Of course, Vincent, with his imagination, still tried his best to make up the picture described by the strong man. That's why Vincent said something very tragic.
Later, Vincent chatted with the strong man named Monk about the Bitter Fortress without Evensy and Avella being involved.
A lot of it was the little things that Cyrus didn't say to him, or that Cyrus didn't bother to tell Vincent.
But it was precisely these small things that made Vincent learn a piece of information that deserved special attention to him.
That's the land of the north, which is gradually warming, especially in the last year, when temperatures have risen more than in the last two years.
Although some people say that this is a normal warming phenomenon, as in the past, Monk feels that things are definitely not that simple.
He believes that there must be a great change that will befall the entire northern land in the near future.
Speaking of this, Vincent couldn't help but glance at Monks, and wondered if this kid had a talent for prophecy.
Vincent knew very well in his heart that he had the information given by Mordremose when he was dying, so that he could deduce possible changes in the future through various small information.
So Vincent pretended to ask inadvertently, "Monks, have you listened to too many rumors and been implanted with psychological hints by others?" ”
"How is that possible!" Monks, rather frustrated, waved his arm and explained why:
"It's a gut feeling for me, like this besieged thing. Although I can't see it, my intuition tells me that they are the beginning of disaster. ”
As he spoke, Monks' whole body seemed to be exuding a solemn divine light.
When he said the last sentence, he pointed to the outside of the city with his right hand, like a divine declaration.
"Really?" said Vincent, who was very indifferent on the surface, but slightly shocked in his heart.
Then, he subconsciously looked in the direction of Monks' finger, but as soon as he glanced at it, the whole person was stunned.
The reason why Vincent is like this is because Monks, when he can't see clearly outside the city, actually pointed his right index finger straight at the giant shadow.
"Vincent, what's wrong with you?" asked Monks, who was the first to break away from the Divine Stick state, to the glazed Vincent.
"Ah, ah, I'm fine. Vincent smiled hard and prevaricated.
"Have you guessed what is besieging the city?" said Monks, in a half-joking, half-serious tone.
"Of course. Vincent's expression was extremely serious.
Monks' eyes widened involuntarily and he asked in surprise, "What is it?"
"A force that can besiege the city. Vincent said word for word.
"Uh~ Indeed. Monks was stunned for a moment, then replied with the muscles twitching at the corners of his mouth.
......
Soon, feeling that the conversation was almost over, Monks waved goodbye to Vincent.
Gazing at his departing back, Vincent silently noted his features. Vincent secretly decided that this person deserved his special attention.
When Monks' figure blended into the crowd, Vincent withdrew his gaze, pretending to chat with the two of them while looking out of the city from time to time to observe the movements of the monster troops.
Especially those giant shadows whose origin is unknown and whose effect is unknown.
Time passed slowly, and the sky gradually became brighter.
Three hours later, the sentry of the garrison, who had used a magic telescope to observe the situation outside the city, let out a panicked scream.
His commander saw him tremble, and the magic telescope in his hand was almost off the ground.
The commander snatched the magic telescope from the sentinel's hand and slapped the sentinel.
After waking the sentry up, he held up the telescope in both hands and looked out of the city, which was still very vague.
"What is this?"
The commander tried his best to resist the urge to scream, and kept asking questions in his mind.
His line of sight was filled with dense monsters of various races, and in this monster army, he could occasionally see a few intermediate ogres that were clearly different from ordinary monsters and were about five meters tall.
Their dark black bodies are painted with blue and white lines.
As they breathed heavily, a flash of blue light flashed from time to time. Then, a dense ice-blue mist suddenly appeared around them.
Then, the mist spread outward from their perimeter and into the other magical objects around them.
Of course, even if the number of monsters doubled, the chief would not be so surprised.
The real reason why he almost forced him to scream in horror after a long time on the battlefield was the huge pillars surrounded by monster troops and the walls of the Bitter Cold Fortress.
Although there was goose feather snow blown by the strong wind, everyone could not fully see the specific appearance of the giant pillar.
But the height of the pillar, which can be estimated by the naked eye alone, and its width of no less than twenty meters, are enough to surprise those who see it.
What's more, there are as many as four huge pillars like this.
Fear comes from the unknown.
"Report it, report the situation quickly. The commander muttered a little distractedly, and threw the telescope in his hand to the adjutant beside him.
Then he hurried down from the gate tower, even if he knocked down several soldiers in a row, he didn't care at all.
The soldiers looked at each other, their faces at a loss, and at this time, a question arose in their hearts at the same time.
"Isn't there a magic prop for short-distance communication on this city gate?"
......
The sky was brighter, and the goose feather snow gradually became smaller and weaker as time went on.
The soldiers and professionals on the city walls no longer need to use a magic telescope, they can see everything in front of them with their own eyes.
Four giant pillars, placed side by side and almost no apart, became the center of their conversation.
"Is it some kind of totem?"
"It seems that yes, if you look closely, it looks like there is some kind of monster entrenched on the stone pillar. ”
"Can you tell what monster it is?"
"There's illusion interference, it's too vague. ”
Vincent listened to the discussion of some of the more professional professionals, and gradually had his own guesses in his heart.
He was constrained by the distance and was unable to reveal his identity, so it was inconvenient for him to use his spiritual power to explore the true form of the giant pillar.
But there is one thing Vincent can fully confirm is that the identical monsters carved on the four giant pillars are 100% related to future catastrophes.
"I may be able to use these pillars to find out a little bit about what is behind the cataclysm. ”
Vincent touched his chin and looked at the pillar without blinking.
