Qile looked at Ilt suspiciously, he seemed to have grown a pair of wings in the sun, and there were two transparent figures beside him, smiling at him, and the two hands were folded on the back of his hand, taking him back into flight.

"Blue Butterfly Radur"

――Is it because you haven't given up on me, and even if you die, you're still willing to be my friend?

"Wonder? Wonder! ”

The two figures gradually became transparent, but Ilte's face gradually became clear.

"Ilte?"

"It's me, are you alright?"

"I'm fine"

"Then why are you giving up on yourself, if you are a little worse, you will be crippled."

Ilt didn't look back, but there was a hint of reproach in his voice. Qile felt the temperature in the palm of his hand, the joy of being saved, and even blew away the gloom that had been deposited in his heart for a hundred years. Maybe the salvation I've been waiting for is like this, the salvation of friends from each other, rather than blindly protecting and losing. What I want is such a group of friends, who will not die easily, let alone fall into the abyss of misfortune because of themselves, and who are strong enough to save each other's souls.

"Ilte, are you here to save me?"

"Fool, did you hit your head? What stupid words, I'm not here to save you, or are I here to travel? ”

Ilt couldn't help but grapple with Qiraku's hand tighter, he didn't know what had happened to Qile in the past, but when the barrier rift closed, he was the first to rush over and stick his arm in the final crack. Even though his left hand was still painful now, he gritted his teeth, but the warm hand held in the palm of his right hand gave him the greatest comfort. The bonds were already there, and no matter what the past was, all Ilt wanted to grasp was the present, after all, time was so stingy for him.

The two broke through the barrier and rushed into the crack. The lightning bolt behind him retreated into the darkness, and beneath his feet was a huge stone island suspended in the darkness. Alan, Tia, and Dusty were now surrounding Qile.

"Welcome home."

Alan stretched out his hand and hugged Qile into his arms, and without extra words, the temperature of that body could already prove everything,

"How did you do that?"

Qile squatted down and looked at the darkness that had just been broken through under the floating island, which had regained its calm at this moment, and settled like the night sky. It's just that in the forest, it is a black exit floating in the sky, but at the moment it is at their feet, and when they look up, they are a sea as blue as the sea, upside down above their heads.

Thankfully, at the last moment of the barrier's closure, Ilt kept an opening with his hand. We found that there are no two layers of enchantment protection here, and all the floating rocks around this side will lose their gravitational attraction due to the black hole being opened underneath and all of them will be absorbed into it, so we will only be attacked below. ”

Alan casually held a small stone floating in the air and said,

"Although these stones don't have any mass here, once the barrier is breached, they will fall several times faster and several times heavier than themselves. So Ilt and I agreed on the idea at that time. Use these stones to connect them with lightning spells to explode the exits. Since we don't need to spend mana to fly here, we can do it exactly. ”

"Yes, the lightning technique used by Dusty to forge weapons is unbelievably powerful. It's a shame you didn't see the scene, it's violent, but it's beautiful, it's like traveling through the galaxy. ”

Ilt, who had experienced it firsthand, looked at Dasty with appreciation, and Dasty responded with a look on his already powerful face. Tia's white staff was deep in the ground, and her hands were still slowly unleashing her magic.

"We're running out of time, Alan."

Tia looked up and said.

"Tia's location is the center of this floating island, and in order to cast the spell just now, we must make sure that the huge pumice stone under our feet does not fall apart. She used the magic of the White Staff to lock the entire floating island together, and once the White Staff left there, the huge rocks under our feet shattered. ”

Alan explained.

"I see, our danger is not over yet, and it seems that we can only get out of here and continue to go up, rushing out of this ocean-like sky."

Qile looked at the endless sea above his head, and then at the ground that had begun to crack around the white staff, and knew that time was really running out.

"I just hope there's no barrier on here, otherwise we really won't be able to get out of here."

Dusty was also tired enough, and now if she took Eren up again, it was estimated that both of them would fall.

"I know we're all exhausted, but we have to pick ourselves up, the exit is there, and don't forget what we're here for."

Alan looked at the blue waters,

"We haven't found the Genesis Poem, we haven't found the dark shadow, we haven't untied the curse, we haven't found true justice."

"Alan, do you have any ideas?"

"Take advantage of this floating island."

Alan walked over to Tia and continued,

"It's not buoyant for us here, but it seems that as long as it's this rock, it can float easily. It's not very far from the top, and if this floating island were to break apart, it would be the best place for us to stay. ”

"What if you can't reach it?"

Dusty looked at the sea above his head and felt that this method was too mysterious.

"It won't be out of reach, it must be reached."

Ilt spoke,

"It's a matter of collaboration between us. The moment these rocks explode, they must be the closest they get to the exit above. After losing the thrust from the explosion, the rocks move downwards and gradually return to the side of the black hole. So we only have one chance, and we have to keep climbing as fast as possible. ”

"So how do you work together?"

"Work in pairs to shorten the distance between teams. The longer the line, the more disadvantageous it is to those below. ”

Qile also seems to approve of Allen's proposal. Seeing that the three boys seemed to be in agreement, Dusty didn't want to say anything more, sighed, and nodded weakly.

"Tia must be the first to leave, because she is closest to the center of the explosion and will leave the fastest. Then there are Dusty and Kirk, and you follow Thea, and I and Ilt are behind. ”

Eren decisively rearranged the order, and everyone had no doubt, because they believed in Allen's ability.

"Alright, everyone get ready, we're going to get started."

Tia clenched the white staff tightly, and at a distance of two meters from her, Dusty and Chiller were half-crouching, their hands on the ground, and then the outer circle was Alan and Ilte, who also lowered their figures. (To be continued.) )
