Chapter 409 (4) Phantom City (31) leads to Sequoia Palace 1
Shura had already explained the route to Witt and Ayatsuji when they were on their way earlier, so the road to Longzang Mountain was not difficult to find, and soon they were heading up the winding path at the base of the mountain into a lifeless green forest. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
There was a lilac mist floating in the forest, and Ayatsuji probably didn't like the smell very much, so she put on her mask and bowed her head. Witt didn't react much, but was uncomfortable with the silence in the forest, where he couldn't even hear a single bird or insect chirping.
"The name of this dragon mountain sounds strange, as if it will hide the meaning of a dragon...... Ayatsuji, you say, there can't really be any terrible monsters hidden here, right? Witt lowered his voice and asked the girl beside him.
The girl replied, "This is the guardian of the prophet Estelle, and with the prophetic energy, there should be no danger." ”
"But...... Didn't Shura say that something might have happened to this prophet Estelle? - Yes, if the Holy Light Stone she guards is stolen, there is a real possibility that something will happen to her. Witt's voice was a little overwhelmed.
As soon as the words fell, the two of them heard a rustling sound from the depths of the woods.
"Who is it?!" Ayatsuji suddenly collapsed, put his hand on the hilt of his sword, and quickly entered a state of preparation. Witt then put on his purple mask to activate the senses of his whole body.
But the rustling sound came from near and far, and it could be heard that someone in the bushes was running away.
Ayatsuji and Witt silently glanced at each other, took a step, launched a volley, and chased after it—
-
The mysterious figure hiding in the woods is not difficult to chase, between the two of them jumping and running, they saw the back of several crimson cloaks, it turned out that there was not only one person hiding in the woods, but a group.
If you run when you see someone, you must be weak-hearted, Witt didn't think much about it, and fired a sniper bullet at him with the thunder and lightning in his hand. He just wanted to stop them from escaping, grab one, and ask for clarification, so the bullet deliberately curved past and hit the tree in front of one of them. The explosion caused him to pause briefly, and he turned around, revealing his outfit in a golden half-face mask and a pair of golden eyes, but, as soon as he saw Witt coming towards him, he shook the staff in his hand, and fired three purple bullets towards Witt.
Before it was Witt's turn, Ayatsuji, who had jumped in front of him, swung out a purple tornado to help him dissolve everything, and in a flash of lightning, he jumped behind the man in the red cloak and the golden mask, holding the long knife around his neck.
-
"Say, who are you?" Ayatsuji lowered her voice and asked in a deep voice.
But the man was silent.
"I'll kill you if I don't say anything." Ayatsuji added.
The man still didn't speak.
Ayatsuji was about to press down the blade, but Witt hurriedly stopped him and said, "Wait, wait, if he is from Sequoia Palace, it will be bad, don't you see that he is also wearing a red cloak?" It's really possible that it's someone from Sequoia Palace. You told me to take off his mask and see—"
As he spoke, Witt took off the man's mask with one hand...... To his surprise, this man had black skin.
"What's going on? Does Keane have black skin on the human race? Witt struggled to remember the traveler he had seen at the crossroads, and had indeed never seen a single black-skinned human.
"It's true that Keane doesn't have a black-skinned race, but we did see a golden-eyed, dark-skinned person." Ayatsuji reminded faintly.
Witt took a few seconds to sort out his slightly confused thoughts, but he quickly reacted to who Ayatsuji was talking about. That is—the prophet, Araz.
-
"That's how Arrath looks!" Witt immediately screamed.
"That's right." Ayatsuji replied softly, then quietly swept around with her afterglow.
She had already sensed that in a few words, the fleeing red cloaks had returned, and it seemed that they were going to save their companions.
"But he can't be Arrath, otherwise how could he have been subdued by us so easily." Witt said again.
"That's right." Ayatsuji replied.
Witt had already heard the rustling around him, and the thunder and lightning that had never been put down had already tightened his grip.
"I'll put the knife down." Ayatsuji said to the golden-eyed dark skin in front of him, "If it's a misunderstanding, stop and make it clear." If not—"
As he spoke, Ayatsuji took away the long knife an inch, but at this moment, one of the golden-eyed and dark-skinned people turned around and rushed to the side, and the other person rushed out of the bushes behind Ayatsuji, and slashed the long axe towards the girl's back!
When it was too late, Ayatsuji's [Flash] skill burst out instantly, and a sword pierced his heart. At the same time, Witt's sniper burst out and blew the fugitive's head.
"If not, shoot or kill." Ayatsuji lightly finished his words and drew back his sword neatly.
The rustle of the bushes suddenly jumped, and in this way, more than twenty people with golden masks and red cloaks appeared.
