Volume 1: The Lost El Dorado Chapter 25: Carl's Dream
In the rain of fire, Phoenix slowly landed beside Carl with a new attitude. Vilia looked at the unharmed Phoenix and wanted to ask how she was doing, but when she saw Phoenix's unemotional golden eyes, Vilia chose to be silent.
Like a god, Karl looked at Ifrit's soulless body, opened his arms, hugged Ifrit into his arms, and with a clear roar, flames with life and sacredness erupted from Phoenix's mouth towards Carl and Ivlit. In the midst of the raging fire, the wound on Carl's abdomen, which was bleeding golden blood, began to heal, and the Ifrit in Carl's arms disappeared.
When all this was done, Phoenix, as if using all of its energy, suddenly became smaller and fell from the sky. "Finney. Velia screamed and tried to run over to catch Phoenix, but Carl had already caught Phoenix first. Vilia took two slow steps, stopping about three or four steps away from Carl and looking at Carl.
Vilia couldn't react to Carl's changes. For Karl and Goliath, including himself, the stories and secrets behind them are not important, the three of them can become partners and go on adventures together, which is a recognition of each other. However, when some secrets are revealed, perhaps some conversation becomes necessary.
For the current Carl, Vilia doesn't know whether it's good or bad, and it's necessary to keep a certain distance. Veria didn't know if Carl would stay the way he was, or if it was a stress reaction. Vilia was watching Carl carefully, and she wanted to know if Carl's rationality still existed. Many demigods, after awakening to divinity, become fanatical believers, the most loyal saints of a deity, and the madmen who have abandoned their original ideas.
After Phoenix landed in Carl's palm, when she saw Carl smiling at Phoenix, Vilia knew that the Carl she was familiar with had not left her.
"Elf, why are you staring at me like that?" Karl turned, his unwavering golden eyes fixed on Willia. "Great demigod, please forgive me for my rudeness. Veria gracefully performed an elven etiquette, and said without humility or arrogance: "The first time I appreciate the majesty of God, I can't control my gaze. ”
On the Lord's plane, God is high and approachable, and mortals maintain respect and faith in God, but they also maintain a minimum of dignity. As a demigod, as long as he is not the heir of the god he believes in, many times, the position of the demigod is awkward, and the courtesy to the demigod is purely out of respect for the god.
The demigod Karl tilted his head, stared at Vilia for a while, smiled, and just wanted to say something, his body suddenly trembled, and then in Vilia's surprised look, the golden yellow in Karl's eyes faded, and then Carl fell to the ground from mid-air, unconscious.
Vilia looked at Carl, who fell asleep on the ground, without an image, shook her head helplessly, and then pulled Carl into the tunnel, and then sat next to Carl, staring blankly out of the tunnel, not knowing what she was thinking.
In the unknown hall, Colin, who had once again burst out with the power of ghosts and gods, looked at Amerigo with murderous intent. Regarding Colin's movements, Amerigo, the premier of the Explorers Guild, just looked at Colin with a smile. When a tremor came, Amerigo spoke, "Colin, I know how important the Stormhammer is to you. But I can't ignore the serious consequences of what you do. Since you can't accept that offer of mine, then let's take a compromise, what do you think?"
Although he didn't know what the old man Amerigo wanted to do, Colin knew that if he had to get the Stormhammer, he would have to pass him, and as the general director of the Explorers Guild, it was not a simple title, it also represented strength.
"Amerigo, if there is any other plan, put it forward quickly, delaying time will not change my mind. Colin's tone was not good, and the power of the ghosts and gods lingering on his left arm did not fade at all, but became more and more intense.
"Now that I've found out about the anomaly in the ruins of Kuskes, I can borrow the Golden Compass to help you find the Stormhammer. With the kindness of resolving the mutation of the ruins of Kuskez City, and the friendship with the Explorers Guild and the Dwarves, I will get the Dwarven King to agree to you using the Stormhammer to purify the power of the ghosts and gods in your body, what do you think?" Amerigo finished speaking, and quietly waited for Colin's reply.
The power of the ghost on Colin's left arm slowly dissipated, and looking at the gray-haired Amerigo, Colin didn't know how to answer him. What Amerigo did, although Colin couldn't accept, was enough to win his respect. For the second set of plans he proposed, although he still had some doubts in his heart, but he took the initiative to disperse the power of ghosts and gods, and he already showed that Colin was willing to consider this plan.
"How can you guarantee that the dwarves will be willing to lend me the Stormhammer, after all, the dwarves are second only to the orcs in their dislike of mercenaries?" In the history of the dwarves, especially in the dark history after the loss of the city of Kuskes, mercenary mercenaries have committed more crimes against the dwarves than the orcs. In addition, in recent years, the human kingdom has been encroaching on the territory of the dwarf country, and it is the mercenaries who play the vanguard here. Therefore, the dwarves hate human mercenaries very much.
"If I can't convince the Dwarven King to lend you the power to destroy the ghosts, then when the time comes, I'll help you get it. Amerigo's words shocked Colin, "Amerigo, if you do this, the Explorers Guild won't let you go." "For the sake of those innocent civilians, there are things that must be done. ”
"In that case, where do we go next?" Colin was not interested in the lives of the civilians. This world is a world of the jungle, and the life and death of the weak are just talking points for the strong.
"Judging from the tremor just now, the divine consciousness projection of the Abyss Lord entrenched in the belly of Mount Andvillema has been defeated, now we just need to go there and close that spatial passage. Amerigo couldn't help but smile when he saw that Colin had agreed to his request.
"Wacole, Chris, or the two of you go with me, and the others, led by Brooke, continue to the Golden Melting Terrace. After Colin had split the Greywater Mercenaries in two ways, he led Ser Wacole with Chris and Amerigo towards the Underville Horse Lodge.
The darkness of the city of Kuskes and the thick gray fog made it possible to see only a few meters in front of him. Colin the Bloody Hand led Sir Wacole and Kerry to a distance of about five meters from Amerigo, slowly moving forward. "Amerigo, how did you know that there would be a spatial passage in the belly of Mount Anderville? If you already knew, you could have told the dwarves directly, so why bother?" Colin asked, looking at the somewhat vague figure in front of him. "As a mage who is proficient in spatial magic, I can still sense such violent spatial fluctuations. As for why he didn't tell the Dwarven King directly about what happened here, it was because by the time I knew about the changes here, the child of an old friend of mine had already taken over the task of covering the ruins of Kuskes, so he ......"
"Old friend's child, could it be that the golden compass that Amerigo spoke of is in the child's hand? Will they get the Stormhammer first to the Golden Melting Terrace, when the Stormhammer is already in the hands of the dwarves, and I can't do anything to fight the entire dwarven race. Amerigo's words made Colin a little alert, and he felt that what he wanted could become a reality.
But Amerigo seemed to know what Colin was thinking, and he suddenly stopped and said to Colin: "Don't worry, Colin, that kid is still far away from the belly of Anderville Mt. Andervil now, and that's where I deliberately put him so far. As for what you think, rest assured, I will not set up an enemy for the Explorers Guild that is about to be destroyed. "That's good, I'm sure the Explorers Guild won't be able to withstand the wrath of the ghosts. Colin snorted.
Then, there was an eerie silence in the dark tunnel. Amerigo led with Varys and Andre, while Colin followed silently with Sir Wacole and Chris.
In the holy sky, several suspended mountains are hidden behind white clouds. Carl floated blankly in mid-air, looking at everything familiar and unfamiliar around him. "Carl, my child. Just when Carl was trying to find a place to fall, a kind voice full of emotion came, Carl looked for the sound, and saw a white-haired old man looking at him with a smile, and behind the old man stood a woman who was a little unclear.
"Carl, my child, return to the arms of the Father!" I don't know why, when Carl saw the elder for the first time, the tears were uncontrollably left, although he couldn't find any memory about the elder in his memory, but Carl kept repeating in his heart, that was my father, that was my home.
"My brother, have you forgotten about us?" asked the woman standing behind the elder who couldn't see her face clearly, just as Karl stood still. "Brother, are you my sister?" Carl felt the entangled curve of fate from the woman's body, but he didn't know why, compared to the closeness to the elder, Carl had a sense of alienation from the woman who called himself his sister, and even a trace of disgust in the depths of his heart.
"Come back, my child. God needs you by His side. "The elder walked towards Karl, and Karl walked towards the elder. Just as the two were about to hug each other face to face, the suspended mountains hidden behind the white clouds all exploded, and at the same time, in the distant sky, several terrifying coercion was rushing towards Carl's side at a terrifying speed.
"What's going on?" Karl looked at in surprise at what was happening in the distance. "My child, you must find those tablets of fate, which is the only thing God expects of you. "Father. Just as Carl came to his senses and tried to grab his father, his father's figure had already left him, and his sister, who was standing behind him, turned into a huge compass and enveloped Carl.
The abyss, out of nowhere. On the desolate land, an ancient castle abruptly exists on the top of a high mountain, and beneath it, countless abyssal demons are roaring to climb the mountain, to enter the castle, to tear the abominable woman to pieces. And above the castle, several Abyss Lords are gathering together in a rare way to besiege this strange castle.
This castle has appeared here since Ragnarok, and no one knows why he appeared, what his purpose was, and why the Abyss Demon would attack at any cost. The one hundred and thirteenth layer of the Abyss Lord Sanatos has been stuck in this layer of the abyss for nearly a thousand years. He was tired of such useless work, but he could only reluctantly accept Di Gomorgan's orders when the demon prince Digomorgan's real name was known.
Just as Sanotos threw another hellfire at the castle, the castle suddenly erupted in chaotic light. At that moment, all living beings within a thousand miles around the mountain were wiped out, and several Abyss Lords above the sky reacted quickly, and they had already fled from this abyss the moment that chaotic light appeared.
When the chaos disappeared and the entire plane was in a quiet state, a ripple rippled in the gray air, and the Lord of the Abyss, the Demon Prince Dick Morgan, appeared in the sky above the ancient castle. "Nannes, my patience is limited. I'm not the guy who only knows what to do behind the intrigue of Adi Moodis. If you are still unwilling to surrender to me, then this level of destruction must be beautiful. ”
"Oh no, that's too cheap for this blue pool. I'm going to grab him and torture her, I'm going to make her one of those miscellaneous playthings, I'm going to make the goddess of fate high up a part of the River Styx. The originally polite Dick Morgan suddenly roared like a madman.
"Go back, Dick Morgan. Since then, there has been no goddess of fate in the world!" When these words were spoken, in the most magnificent hall on the Heavenly Mountain, the artifact of destiny that had been enshrined on the high platform, Lavrol, was instantly blackened, and the evil aura began to infect the temple.
"The wheel of fate is turning!" "The Lord of the Dawn appeared in the temple, and when he saw that Lavrol began to want to break through the barrier of restraint and find its owner, Lordashan sighed deeply, and with a wave of his hand, the barrier that had imprisoned Lavrol was lifted, and Lavrol disappeared into the temple.
After Lavrol disappeared into the Heavenly Mountain, the melodious bells rang through the Heavenly Mountain, and all the oracles and travelers began to look at the highest part of the Heavenly Mountain, the unquenchable holy light, the dragon began to wake up from its slumber and fly towards the holy light, and the gods also appeared one after another, gathered around the Loda Mountain.
Not to mention the changes in the Abyss and Heavenly Mountain. Vilia, who had been with Carl all along, noticed that Carl, who had been asleep, suddenly burst into tears, and Carl's expression became painful. "Carl, what's wrong with you?" Vilia tried to shake Carl awake, but Carl didn't respond. Although it has not been a long time since Carl exposed his demigod body, the situation is worrying. Normally, the first time the hidden divinity erupts, the person does fall into a coma. However, such coma is usually short-lived, and you will wake up after a few minutes. After all, divinity is poison for mortals who do not have the blood of gods, but for those descendants of gods, it is indeed a great tonic.
And Carl not only didn't wake up, but also showed a painful expression and left tears, which couldn't help but make Velia, who was not too worried, a little worried about whether Carl would have a problem.
"Where is this?" Just when Vilia was worried about Carl, Karl woke up leisurely and thumped his head a little painfully, and Carl saw Vilia sitting in front of him with red eyes. "Vilia, what's wrong with you?" asked Carl, for some reason. "It's nothing! The air here is a little dry, so my eyes are a little red. Velia said after a sneaky glance.
Just as Vilia wanted to ask Carl why he was crying, Carl suddenly said, "Vilia, I found my father. "What, Lord Barnack?" Vilia looked at Carl with some confusion.
"No, it's my biological father. Velia. Carl looked a little sad, "And my sister." A person I can't see clearly. "Did you see it in a dream? I saw you crying, did something terrible happen?" asked Velia, taking Carl's hand and whispering.
Looking at Velia's concerned gaze, Karl's eyes dimmed, and after a pause, Karl recounted all the scenes he had seen in his dreams to Vilia. "Levitating Mountain?" asked Vilia. "Well, there are about five of them, and if there are others, I didn't notice. ”
"In the Endless Plane, where there is a suspended mountain, there is only a place where the gods live - Heavenly Mountain!" Veria said softly, "According to what Karl said, your father seems to be an enemy of the gods!" "I don't know if the terrifying forces that appeared at the end were the gods of Heavenly Mountain, but my father's disappearance must have something to do with Heavenly Mountain. When this is over, I want to go to Paradise Mountain to see if I can get some news of my father. "Carl, I hope you can calm down. Although your father is indeed related to Heavenly Mountain, you also know that it is the realm of the gods, and your every move is under the watchful eye of God, so I think you can wait until you know more about it before going to Heavenly Mountain. Veria whispered.
Just as Carl pondered what Vilia had said, there was a sudden noise outside the tunnel. After Carl and Vilia looked at each other, the two began to move slowly out of the tunnel, carefully observing the outside environment.
