Chapter Eighty-Four: The North Sea

Somewhere in the city of Laiming, not far from the city center, Bai Xuanyi and the three of them were ready to go out of the city.

"Sister Xuanyi, we should be able to escape...... Lan Qinuo scanned her surroundings with great anxiety, the black swirls in the sky and the mottled ruins around her were too much for her to bear.

"It will, but it will take a while." Bai Xuanyi hugged Lan Qinuo's delicate body and stroked her long blue hair to comfort her.

"Xiao Yu, you should have noticed it too, right?" Bai Xuanyi looked at Lan Xiaoyu, Lan Xiaoyu's face turned pale and nodded.

Bai Xuanyi looked at the black vortex in the distance, and then looked in the direction of the east, where was the road leading to the city gate.

It wasn't since then, the entire city was surrounded by an extremely powerful and impermeable barrier, which was unprecedentedly strong, and Bai Xuanyi thought that it must have something to do with the black vortex in the center of the city.

"Xuan Yi, do you have any good ideas?" Lan Xiaoyu asked.

Bai Xuanyi pondered for a while and made an embarrassed expression, "There is no good way to do it yet. ”

Lan Qino listened to the words of the two silently, although her heart was full of fear at the moment, but she believed that nothing could stump the two sisters in front of her.

Bai Xuanyi frowned, she saw all the changes that happened in the whirlpool just now, but she didn't observe them too carefully because of the distance.

That blue light was only one step away from completely destroying the entire vortex, but it suddenly disappeared mysteriously, why is this?

"Sister Xuanyi......" Lan Qinuo tugged at the corner of Bai Xuanyi's clothes, as if to tell her something.

"What's wrong? Chino? Bai Xuanyi asked gently.

"Just now... The blue light in that maelstrom...... It gives me a sense of familiarity......"

"Ah...... Yes...... That's right. Bai Xuanyi was slightly stunned and touched Lan Qinuo's little head.

Chino said that the blue light was somewhat familiar, that is, the energy of the blue light was close to the power that she had burst out after being controlled before, and it might even be the same?

No, no...... It shouldn't be the same, Lan Qinuo's mutation has been lifted, and the power in her body has dissipated, so there is only one possibility for the blue light in the whirlpool......

A force of the same nature? This strange speculation flashed in Bai Xuanyi's heart.

So who or what can wield that power? And what is the purpose?

Bai Xuanyi shook her head, and Lan Xiaoyu next to her looked at her with some concern, although she really wanted to help Bai Xuanyi, but she was powerless.

Underneath the black vortex, Avisha and Karena contend with the constant attack of black tentacles.

"Your Highness, this is not the way to go." Karena struggled to sever an unusually thick tentacle, and the flames burned the entire tentacle to ashes.

"It will take some time for the Demon Slayer to recover, and we must hold on!" Avissa used a purification spell to eliminate three tentacles, quickly dodging the attacks of the other tentacles.

Karena gritted her teeth and focused on the dark creatures.

Avisha's purification spell temporarily made the tentacles dare not approach, and she breathed a sigh of relief, as if she had thought of something.

The white orb of light appeared in Avitha's hand, and she leaped forward, throwing it into the black vortex.

The huge vortex quickly swallowed the ball of light, but the black tentacles next to Karena were reduced to ashes.

"Sure enough!" Avitha's voice was filled with joy, "The power source of these tentacles is this vortex, and as long as the vortex is attacked by a purification spell, they will disappear!" ”

Soon, a large number of black tentacles surrounded the two again, but this time, a hint of confidence appeared on Avisha's pale face.

……

The North Sea of the Darkwing Empire, here can be said to be the forbidden land of the empire in the true sense.

There is not a single town, not even a small village, in the vast coastal plain, only the troops of the border are stationed here for a long time.

On the fog-shrouded shore stood a middle-aged man who looked like he had been in the vicissitudes of time, and next to him was a young man.

Both of them were dressed and looked very delicate, and the middle-aged man had a shimmering badge on his shoulder, which was the symbol of the general granted by the royal family.

"Top, how long have we been here?" The middle-aged man suddenly spoke, and the young man next to him was stunned, and then replied:

"It's been five years, honorable General Nellier Caginette."

The middle-aged man's lips moved slightly, as if he wanted to say something, but he didn't say it, just looked at the sea shrouded in thick fog.

As commander of the Caginette Legion, Nellier knows how difficult it is to defend the North Sea, and the danger here is not just a dense fog.

On the other side of the North Sea is the ruins of the Ultra Spirit Empire, which is the most feared place of the Darkwing Empire, even more so than the demons.

When the tragedy of the city of Lyming came, there were no surprises for Neliel, not even for the entire legion.

Although he had nothing to do with them, Nellier had a faint sense of uneasiness lately.

He couldn't delve into what kind of uneasiness it was, and this strange feeling was like an invisible black hand that grabbed his throat, and although he couldn't see it, it seemed that he could wipe him out at just one opportunity.

"General?" Top, who was beside him, suddenly spoke, "Have you been bothered by anything lately?" ”

Nellier looked at him, a bleak smile on her wrinkled face, and shook her head.

"It's nothing, I'm a general, as long as there are no problems with the soldiers under my jurisdiction and there are no problems in the places where I am stationed, this is my greatest peace of mind."

A look of reverence appeared on Top's face, "The general's dedication to the country is really admirable." ”

"Alright, I know you're going to make me amuse." Nellier and Topp talk like old friends for many years, without any barriers between superiors and subordinates.

After a long time, Nellier once again took a deep look at the sea shrouded in thick fog in front of him, and said lightly: "Let's go, we should go back." ”

The two turned to leave, leaving only the cold sea breeze blowing through the unnoticed corner, and the dense fog on the sea seemed to rise a faint glimmer.

"Top, bring me that map." Nellier, who had returned to the camp, had just sat down in a chair and said to the young man beside him who was sorting out the bookshelves.

"Okay." A hint of surprise flashed across Topp's face, the map Nellier was talking about was the map of the entire North Sea, he hadn't looked at this map for a long time, why was it today......

However, he didn't think much of it, and soon he quickly took out the map and sent it to General Nelil's table.

"Okay, you go down first." Nellier said, stroking the map's slightly mottled parchment.

As soon as Topp walked out of the tent, Neliel opened the map that seemed to have been dusty for years.

The content of this map is very simple, just a rough picture of the whole North Sea, and then a few important places are highlighted with magic.

Of course, this is only a map of the entire sea, and there is no indication of the ruins of the Soul Empire on the other side.

Nellier looked at it for a moment, then pointed his finger at one of the magically marked places, a landmark building in the northeastern corner of the North Sea, though it had been abandoned for many years.

A faint yellow glow appeared on the map markings, and soon, the phantom of the building appeared in front of Neliel.

It was a dark green lighthouse, and the magic on the tower indicated that the lights had long since been extinguished, but there were many rumors about the lighthouse, such as monsters underneath it.

Nellil looked at it for a moment, then removed his finger, and the shadow vanished.

There were only five magical places on the entire map, and when Nellil saw the one in the center of the North Sea, the pupils of his eyes shrank, and he slowly put his finger on it,

The yellow light lit up again, and soon the shadow of the building appeared in front of Neliel.

It was a solemn-looking palace built on an isolated island, and it had an unsettling-sounding name - the Tomb of the Silent Soul.

There is no accurate or convincing account of who built the palace and for whom, but the most reliable rumor seems to have been that it was built for the sister of the last Emperor of the Psychic Empire.

Nellier looked at it for a moment, then removed his fingers and closed his eyes at the same time.

An inexplicable sense of fear flashed through his mind like an electric current, and he opened his eyes suddenly, only to find that the phantom of the Tomb of the Silent Soul, which was supposed to disappear, had not disappeared.

Naril was a little surprised, and he put his finger on the magic marker again, trying to turn off the illusion, but to no avail.

The phantom began to glow with a faint green light, and began to look more and more like a physical object rather than a phantory, and cold sweat continued on Neliel's forehead.

At this moment, this strange phantom suddenly shot out a green light towards Nelil, which instantly hit Nelil's head, and there was no reaction, Neliel actually fainted directly.

In the huge tent, a green light appeared out of thin air, and behind the unconscious Neliel, it gradually turned into a human form, which was Huang Yao.

Huang Yao looked at the fallen Neliel, and then at the phantom that had changed in front of him, and there was a wave in his eyes.

She walked to the side of the phantom and stretched out her hand to touch the "Tomb of the Silent Soul" as if she were caressing, and the expression on her face showed a faint sadness.

"It's not a good feeling to be sealed for a thousand years...... Soon, you'll see the light of day again. ”

Huang Yao's finger touching it moved slightly, and the abnormal phantom disappeared in an instant.

She walked over to Nelliel, leaned down, and put a finger on his forehead.

An extremely inconspicuous dark green light flew into Nelil's forehead, and after that it was as if nothing had happened.

Emperor Yao helped Nellier into his chair and fiddled him out of the position of falling asleep on the table, and then looked around when he was done.

Soon, her figure was gradually entangled in green light, and she disappeared here in an instant.
