Chapter 20: A Strange Legend
Tomorrow my sister gets married, and the update won't be there until late, sorry. When Jina led everyone to carefully step on the valley path into the Valley of the Fallen Stars, everyone was very vigilant and vigilant, because outside the valley they could see the thunder over the valley, and when they walked on the path, the sound of the whirlwind of flames and explosions in the valley was clearer, which also made them more careful.
Fortunately, when they were about to step into the Falling Star Valley after walking this path, there were no accidents, but everyone did not relax their spirits, they all knew that the real step-by-step crisis in the Falling Star Valley could not tolerate a trace of negligence.
When Ji Na took a deep breath and wanted to walk through the corner in front of her, Charles in the back suddenly grabbed her, "It's better for me to go ahead, my strength is easier to detect danger in advance, you stand by my side and show the way later." ”
Ji Na looked at her little hand held in the palm of Charles' hand, and her face suddenly turned red, and her hands with knives and murders were held so gently for the first time, which made Ji Na's heart tremble uncontrollably.
However, Ji Na also knew that this was not the time to taste this taste carefully, so she hurriedly lowered her head and pretended to ponder to calm down her inner fluctuations, before she pretended to be unconvinced and snorted, "Hmph! Then you go ahead. ”
After speaking, Gina didn't even look at Charles, turned her head and followed behind Charles with an unhappy face
Ji Na's acting skills made everyone not notice her abnormality, thinking that Ji Na was just because her strength was not as good as people's inner awkwardness, but Ji Na herself didn't see it, when she turned her head, a trace of evil smile appeared on the corner of Charles's mouth, obviously all her performances just now were taken into his eyes.
Without saying a word, Charles turned around and stepped over the last corner in front of him, and a misty valley suddenly appeared in front of everyone.
The fog in the valley came from nowhere, like layers of light veils covering the entire valley, making it impossible to see the situation inside, and when you look up, you can only vaguely see things within ten meters, and ten meters away are completely shrouded in fog.
Maybe they usually think that this kind of scenery is like a fairyland cave, but hearing the thunder and roar overhead, the explosion sound that comes into their ears from time to time, and the violently tumbling fog in front of them, Charles and they all know that this is definitely not a good place, and if it is not good, they will all lose it in it.
"Where are you going?"
Gina squinted at the mist-shrouded valley, the thick fog in front of her making it difficult for her to make out the direction, and after a long moment pointed in a direction and said to Charles, "Here, the target indicated in the mission map is in this direction, and Patri and they must be going here." ”
Charles took a closer look in the direction that Gina was pointing, but there seemed to be a mysterious force in the fog that filled the valley, so that Charles could not disperse and penetrate the fog in front of him by any means, and could only barely see the scene within twenty meters.
After careful confirmation, Charles took the lead and walked into the mist of the Falling Star Valley, when he walked into the mist, Gina and they could only see Charles's confused back in an instant, seeing such a change, they hurriedly followed Charles into the mist.
When people's senses are restricted, people will naturally lose their sense of security and become extremely sensitive, and at this time, because their sight is blocked by the fog within ten meters, Gina and the others are worried to follow behind Charles.
Walking into the mist, everyone found that even though the outside of the Valley of the Fallen Star was full of mutated creatures, the grass was lush and the trees were lush, but the valley was a mess, and the ground was covered with pits, rubble, and fallen or burning trees.
At first, they were a little puzzled, but when Charles suddenly shouted at them to be careful, and a thunderbolt slammed into the crowd not far away, the violent explosion and the debris flying towards them made it clear to them all at once how the big pit and rubble appeared.
In the next part of the road, Charles and his party only walked out of a short distance of a few dozen meters to avoid the frequent thunder and lightning in the sky, and encountered the magma and springs that suddenly gushed out from the ground, as well as the whirlwind like a knife scraping a sword.
At this time, Gina was extremely glad that Alicia had brought Charles to the station, otherwise without Charles's help, she might not even be able to walk such a little way if she brought someone in.
Because these natural forces such as thunder, lightning, and flames in the Falling Star Valley cannot be predicted in advance, they can only be discovered by their own perception, but the strange dense fog in the Falling Star Valley blocks people's sight, making it impossible for people to detect the coming of the crisis.
But Charles, who was walking in front, had a more and more serious face, because after careful perception, Charles found that the rules of order in this valley were completely chaotic, whether it was the thunder falling from the sky or the whirlwind lava that erupted in the valley, they were all the products of the distorted power of order.
Charles saw a strong whirlwind coming in their direction, making him shudder and feeling a crisis, the whole whirlwind suddenly dissipated, not to mention how such a violent whirlwind could dissipate in an instant, but the power after dissipation would not not cause a little fluctuation in the surrounding fog.
Obviously, because of the chaos of order and rules in the valley, these natural forces are out of balance, and they will erupt at any time and everywhere, making it impossible for people to dodge.
As Charles carefully sensed the state of the natural forces around his body, he suddenly heard a cracking sound under his feet, and he glanced down slightly differently and found that it was actually a human skull.
Ji Na, who had been following Charles closely and pointing in the direction, followed Charles's line of sight and also saw the skull on the ground, and when she saw the marks on the skull like a knife cut under the whirlwind, her heart tightened slightly, such a dangerous place, can the head of the regiment and his party really last for so many days.
"This skull has been around for a long time, it can't be left by your group leader, but seeing that this skull has been so lucky to be kept in this kind of place for so long, maybe your head has also found a place like this that won't break out too many disasters to hide." Noticing the nervousness on Jena's face, Charles spoke out to comfort her.
"Well, thank you Charles." Gina smiled gratefully at Charles, and then glanced at the skull on the ground with complicated eyes, "It seems that this is also a person who wanted to come here to seek a breakthrough, but unfortunately died here." ”
"Well, looking for a breakthrough?"
"Well, as one of the most dangerous places on the continent, there are still people who come here because it is rumored to be a place where gods have fallen, and in addition to these out-of-control natural forces, there will also be a strange scene here."
"It is rumored that there is still a remnant of the power of the gods here, and at some moments, there will be scenes of the gods who have fallen in the valley fighting in front of them, as well as some mysteries of power and rules." Speaking of these, Ji Na also showed a hint of longing on her face.
"Now there are several legendary powerhouses on the continent who have taken the last step here, such as Benier, the female marshal of the Redalia Empire in the middle of the continent, she has become a famous swordsman master in the continent from the golden peak when she entered to the time she walked out of the Falling Star Valley."
Hearing Gina say this, Charles suspected that the power in the mist he had just sensed was probably the residual power of the gods, even if it was only the power left by the gods, but it was not something that ordinary people could imagine, it had a powerful impact on the rules in this valley, making the natural forces in the valley out of balance.
However, Charles was wondering in his heart, who was this fallen god, who actually caused the order here to fall into chaos, knowing that many gods could not do it in front of him, let alone the residual power after death.
And Charles is even more curious about the other point, why the rumored star of destiny representing this god fell here with the death of this god, knowing that when a person dies, the star representing his fate will only turn into a meteor across the night sky, but he has never heard of falling on the continent.
