Chapter Twenty-Eight: Mysterious Voices
() The red flower of the other side, also known as Manzhu Shahua, is native to the vast continent
According to the legend of the vast continent, people have to come to the Yellow Spring of the Underworld after death, on the road of the Yellow Spring, the soul of the dead will see a large number of flowers blooming on the side of the road, it looks like a carpet of blood from a distance, and it is also the only scenery and color on the long Yellow Spring Road, forming a fiery red flower path, guiding the soul to the river of the underworld - the other side of the Lethe River, the soul of the dead will step on the guidance of this flower to lead to the hell of the underworld, so Manju Sawa is also the only living creature in the underworld
Manju Sawa is highly poisonous, and people who eat or inhale its pollen will be poisoned to death, and not only that, but when the flower of the other side reached Olopa, the necromancers discovered that this strange plant also has the ability to absorb souls, so some necromancers will widely plant this flower as a prop to drain souls
Fortunately, Cassius had read the materials and illustrated books about Manju Sawa in the National Library of the Snowy Federation, and knew how terrible this plant was, otherwise they would all die in this sea of red flowers
Julian, when they ran to the farthest distance that the sea of flowers could reach, they found that a red mist rose in the vast sea of flowers behind them, and the thick fog of aroma formed by pollen was unimaginable
Without the maintenance of the magic array, the Dark Absolute Realm had completely collapsed at this time, and the black clouds in the sky that had blocked the sunlight were fragmented, and the sunlight poured down from the cracks in the black clouds, forming one light curtain after another
A huge bone cart was pulled by twelve gargoyles, slowly rising from the sea of red flowers on the ground, and Griston, Raqi, Vladimir, Latik, and Shank climbed nearby, and at the edge of the bone car, the huge bone car flew through the light curtains directly into the sky
Owen, can you tell me what the hell is going on, looking at the shadow of the corpse car getting farther and farther away, although the black clouds have dispersed and the earth is bathed in sunlight again, but at this time, Sophia's heart is gloomy, and tears of bean size fall to the ground
Just four hours after Julian and his attack by the Faylehu, a detachment of the Templar Knights searching for the necromancer's whereabouts in the fief of Baron Molehoy in the southern part of the Fayele Empire was ambushed by a squadron of the Faylele Army, almost completely annihilated
At 5 a.m. the next day, on the outskirts of the city of Finger in the central west of the Empire, a small Knights Templar was attacked by the Fayeru army, and after four hours of fierce fighting, the Knights Templar finally repelled the attack
Two and a half hours later, a unit of the Templar Order in the province of Rawicko in the southwest was attacked by a rain of arrows while on its mission, suffering heavy casualties
At the same time, in the northwestern port of Port Villalton, a group of Fayle soldiers claiming to be royal guards broke into a local monastery and arrested two bishops who had been directly stationed there by the Central Church in full view of fraud charges
......
During these two days, there were a number of attacks on the Templars by the Fayele Army in the Fayele Empire, all of which had the following common characteristics:
First, the French Yale Army attacked under the pretext that the other party was pretending to be the Knights Templar
Second, the attacking Fayle army was in the name of Emperor Charlotte I
Third, according to the survivors, the soldiers of these Franco-Yale troops were generally not highly military, and they were very far from the troops around the emperor
Fourth, the attacks were carried out in the west and south, where Emperor Charlotte I was weak, and in the eastern and central parts of the empire, where the emperor held absolute power, there were almost no occurrences
The military situation flew into the Holy Pope Island like a piece of paper, and at the same time flew into the capital of the Fayele Empire, Beaune, and Emperor Charlotte I, who was playing chess with the prime minister, was shocked after receiving the information, and he didn't even care about the chess game, and immediately called a meeting of his ministers for urgent discussion
The ministers all knew that this emperor was addicted to chess, and there were not many things that could make him give up the unfinished chess game to do, but it must be an extremely important thing that was urgent, and when the ministers learned about the information from the west and the south, they were all pale with fright, and no one knew the severity of this matter
Night fell over the half-destroyed castle
How long will your freeze last Julian asked the fat mage
Cassius sighed: less than 72 hours
At that time, in the woods outside the castle, Cassius was in charge of guarding the unconscious Frey with seven Templar soldiers, but Latic's death wails made several of them disappear in an instant, but Sophia arrived in time to rejuvenate the hearts of Cassius and the other seven soldiers with light magic, otherwise they would have died long ago
In fact, there is another hero here, Davis Gwiva, who was captured by Julian and them, because Cassius used a requiem to put him to sleep, so he could not hear the death wail, and avoided a heart pause, after the requiem effect was interrupted by the caster's coma, Davis woke up, and he fought off Vladimir who tried to absorb their souls, otherwise they would have died because their souls were absorbed by the necromancer, if not from heart arrest
At this time, Davis was sitting in his own bedroom, looking out the window at the ruins of the throne of bones, in a daze, even though he had been Julian's captive, but because they had fought side by side, Davis was freed and regarded as a companion by others
The sudden change made this arrogant and arrogant boy lose a qiē in one day, due to the long delay of time and the obstruction of the sea of poisonous flowers, even if Sophia's light magic was strong, it couldn't save the 228 people in the castle who were killed by the deadly scream, including his parents and brothers, yes, maybe someone will say in the future that Davis's father led the wolf into the house, colluded with the necromancer, and led to the murder, they were self-inflicted, Nothing to the next, or some people will say that the cruelty of the Gveis family to the people under their rule, the destruction of the whole family is completely deserved, unworthy of sympathy, these things everyone knows, but no one will bring it up again, now Davis is just a young man with nothing, he has not eaten or drunk for a whole day, just staring blankly at the half-ruined castle - that is where he grew up, his home
Julian tries to comfort or reassure him, but is stopped by Cassius and Ray, and only anyone who has experienced the grief of losing a loved one will empathize with him about what he thinks or needs
Looking at Davis's poor background, Julian sighed softly, indeed, when he first met this man, Julian despised him, and only thought that he was a coward with no courage at all, but when facing the terrible throne of bones, Davis's unexpectedly brave appearance made Julian look at him differently
Perhaps only after the tragedy and setbacks of rebirth will people be truly reborn and reborn
Couldn't it be frozen over and over again, Julian proposed a new one to Cassius
No, Cassius shook his head, unless you wanted her to freeze to death
It was hateful to try to buy more time, and Julian hung his head in pain as he propped himself up against the wall
The two of them discussed the healing spell that Fremelek, who was still unconscious, had long since passed and the toxicity had begun to kick in, and in order to save her life, Cassius had sealed her in the ice, completely freezing Frey's body and freezing the poison on her legs, although it had bought a little more time, but it was not a long-term solution
Why have so many people died, and now the antidote is still not found, and hearing Julian's heartache, Cassius and Ray, who have no choice, can only sigh deeply
Owen, what would you do if it were you, are you really our enemy: Boyos, Julian looked at the knight's saber engraved with the word OWER, and he couldn't help but think of what had happened to that childhood friend in the days of your disappearance
There was also a person thinking about the same thing at the same time
Owen: Why are you actually Buyos, what happened to you all these years to put you on this evil path, Sophia was lying on the bed, her eyes were closed, and Joika outside, thinking she was asleep, but how could she really sleep, and the pillow was completely wet with tears
Once upon a time, the boy who protected her with his body and exchanged his life for her life became the eternal home of the girl's heart, and eleven years of dreams haunted Sophia countless times fantasized about the different situations of meeting Owen, and finally the two finally met, but it was such a reunion situation - this is a fact that the girl never thought about and did not want to accept
In the short day since Owen left in the bone car, she had wept countless times, and every time Joyka appeared at her side, he tried to provide a safe haven for the girl with his broad arms—but each time Sophia avoided him, and what happened in the woods on the northern outskirts of Antelope would never be repeated
Sophia stroked the half of the handkerchief on her right hand, she knew exactly what her feelings were, and she knew that she could no longer borrow the arms of a man other than that person to cry or rely on that person, yes, although he had gone on the path of evil, but the other half of the handkerchief was still firmly tied to his wrist, which showed that he had not forgotten the promise he had made to me, and in his heart I knew that it was enough--the innocent girl comforted herself in her heart, and perhaps this was the only way for her to find peace of mind
Sophia, don't sleep, a voice suddenly appeared in Sophia's ear
Sophia suddenly woke up in the darkness, she couldn't see anyone talking to her, and she suddenly became nervous
You have to stop him, you have to stop him, and that voice comes up again
Who do you want me to stop, but Sophia still can't see who is talking to her
Stop Buyos, that voice came from all directions, hurry up and stop Buyos, he has obtained the five Star Keys, he can unlock the seal of the other half of his power at any time, and it will be a disaster for Olopa, so you and your accomplices must stop him
I don't believe your words, Sophia has learned that this voice is directly in her head, not through guò eardrums, someone is talking directly to her mind, you are also a necromancer, right, you want to attract us to throw yourself into the net, I will not fall for you
No, I'm the one who helped you, that voice seemed to be a little anxious, Buyos was now in a deserted town two hundred kilometers north of here, hurry up, and in two days he would be able to break the seal
How can I trust you vigilant Sophia touched her two short swords from the bedside
I've helped you before, and you're in that tavern, haven't you forgotten?
In the tavern, Sophia recalls that when she and Joyka teamed up against the banshees in the tavern in Cangling, there was indeed a voice warning them that there was another necromancer on the scene, so that she could avoid Vladimir's sneak attack
Yes, you have to act quickly, and don't you have a companion poisoned, as long as you come to that town, you can find the antidote, come quickly, hurry up, hurry up...... The sound faded and eventually faded away
Wait, don't go, who are you, how can I find you, don't go, Sophia called out anxiously to the mysterious voice that was leaving, she still had a lot to ask
Don't you go, Sophia suddenly sat up from the bed, she noticed that the sun was shining outside the window, she walked to the window, pushed open the glass window, and the fresh air came in the morning
It turned out to be a dream, but this dream was so real.
