After the Great War, the soldiers cleaned up the battlefield. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 infoThe bodies of the gnomes were collected, placed in a specially prepared ice coffin, and transported to the upper graveyard to be handed over to the scholars of the ruins investigation team for autopsy. However, there were not many corpse specimens needed now, so after sending two complete gnome corpses, the others were thrown into the incinerator for disposal.

It was the eighth day that the Fire Lion had entered the eleventh floor, and it had been a difficult time for Eligo and the warriors for a little over a week, as they had been under heavy attack from the gnomes and other creatures of the ground after they had built the camp and supply lines. However, thanks to the detailed information provided by Allen, Eligo devised different countermeasures to address the weaknesses of these creatures. Therefore, although it was difficult to defend, he tried to keep the camp intact, which was a great improvement compared to the past, and even Eligo had a lot of confidence in clearing the entire labyrinth.

No sooner had several soldiers dropped the body of the last dwarf onto the cart than they heard footsteps in the darkness ahead, and they immediately drew their long knives alertly. One of them threw a torch into the darkness, and the light of the fire swirled into the darkness, illuminating a pair of red eyes. Only then did the soldiers realize that they were two humans, a young man and a teenager, but they were surprisingly similar in appearance, and both had silver-gray hair.

The soldier who threw the torch came to his senses and hurriedly shouted, "Count Allen, you are back!" ”

The older man nodded.

Twenty days later, Alan and Shiro returned to the human residency on the eleventh floor.

When he saw the two of them in the camp, Eligo laughed, it was such a familiar scene. As last time, the two returned to the camp gobbling up, and the food didn't look much better than the refugees. But who knows, and what about one of them being the Counts of the Empire?

After filling his stomach, Alan exhaled, sat lazily in his chair and said, "There is nothing happier than being hungry for three or five days and then having a full meal." ”

"The Count is so easy to satisfy." Eligo smiled, "With your current ability, even if you are hungry for a month, it will not be a big problem, right?" ”

"That said, it feels terrible to be hungry." Alan stretched, sat up straight and said, "General, do you want to know what the twelve-story cemetery has?" ”

Elice was stunned: "You have explored the entire eleven-story labyrinth?" ”

Alan shook his head: "This layer of maze is so deep and wide, how can it be so easy to explore." I'm just going all the way to the exit of this level. I'll draw down the route I've traveled for you to use in your development of the station. But I think even if it only takes up half of the labyrinth, you'll have to keep it busy. ”

"That's true, not only is there a lot of space in depth, but there are also a lot of remnant creatures." Erico smiled, "But I still want to know what's on the next floor, so I can prepare for the rest of the work." ”

Alan laughed, his smile a little mysterious. However, he didn't satisfy Erigo's appetite, and after smiling, he said, "The labyrinth below will definitely surprise you, in fact, there is no labyrinth there, but a flat, open space. It looks more like a grand underground hall, and of course this hall is not for lives like you and me......"

Elligo heard the meaning of his words and frowned, "You mean, there are giant creatures in the next layer of the labyrinth?" How many? ”

Alan held up a finger: "There is only one, and that is a giant beast, a real giant beast." But it's sleeping, and we haven't woken it up. We bypassed it and found the entrance to the thirteenth floor. If you're going to deal with this beast, I think you should fight it like a tough battle. ”

"There is such a thing...... "I am really curious more and more, who built such a labyrinth, and what is the purpose of placing these creatures in the layers of the labyrinth?" It's just too curious. ”

"When you reach the finish line, all your doubts will be solved." Alan said: "We should rest at the garrison for a day today, the old rule, ask the general to prepare supplies for us." We'll go deeper, and we'll probably be away for a little longer this time. ”

"Supplies are not a problem, but Count Allen, I have to warn you to be careful." With that, Eligo left to prepare what Eren needed.

The next day, the two of them left again. Two weeks later, they appeared in front of a bronze gate that connected the ground to the dome, and the door went deep into the ground, as if to become one with the ground. There is a figure on the left and right sides of the door, but the two figures are upside down. The figures have no distinguishing features, and it is impossible to tell whether they are male or female, only that they can be seen with their legs bent, like babies in the womb. As a result, the two figures are reversed in the form of 69, and Alan notices that each figure has an outstretched hand and holds something that looks like a halberd and a spear. It's like a weapon, it's like some kind of power struggle, but whatever it is. In the center of both of these things there is a depression, which is very flat and symmetrical, and it does not look like it is damaged, but it is reserved for something.

Alan pushed the door hard, not moving as expected. He used enough source power to try a few more times, and the results were all the same. This is very strange, from the eleventh floor to this level of the labyrinth, almost all the doors can be pushed open. As long as you can cut through the complex terrain and kill off the underground creatures who don't know how long they have survived in the graveyard, each layer of the maze is almost unimpeded.

But the maze on this floor, the exit is blocked, and it seems that it cannot be destroyed by external forces, and the door can only be opened by following a certain method. Alan caressed the cold bronze façade of the gate with his hand, and could feel that something was calling him inside the door, but he lacked a key to open the door, so he could only look outside the door and sigh. He looked at the two recesses in the door, and vaguely felt that they were the key to opening the door.

"Maybe it's the keyhole......," Allen said, "but where is the key?" ”

Obviously, Bai can't answer this question. Alan shrugged his shoulders, sat down by the door and said, "Rest for a while, and then let's go back, anyway, we can't find the answer here, so it's better to leave it to Brother Elli for a headache." Let me put it bluntly, why don't we go and get in trouble with that big guy above? ”

The white eyes lit up: "It should look delicious." ”

Alan shook his head and said, "You know how to eat, that guy ......", suddenly Alan was silent, and his whole body jumped up and looked up at the endless darkness above the gate. After a moment, he sighed and said, "It's coming so fast, it looks like our vacation is over." ”

Bai blinked, not knowing what Eren meant by this.

"There is a guest coming, and you can feel the majestic qi at such a distance, this guest is not simple." Alan smiled bitterly.

At the same time that Alan felt a nameless power appear, in the outer space of the Heavenly Star, a pair of eyes saw this blue planet in full view, and the owner of the eyes sighed sincerely: "It's so beautiful, this planet glows with strong vitality, so obvious that it is difficult to do it even if you want to deliberately ignore it." ”

A gentle voice said, "It's hard to believe that this planet is also one of the experimental grounds of our ancestors. I have heard that there was a series of huge experiments going on in the time of the Golden Rose, but there is no mention of it in the later literature. Perhaps we can find the clues left by the Empress Rose on this planet. ”

The leader stepped back, and the soft light above his head fell, revealing a square and majestic face. This majestic face is well known to everyone in Idahua, because he is the King of Justice, Ofasc. Next to the Emperor was Duke Griffo, who was in charge of going to the Heavenly Star, but was obstructed by Chargrin, and the Duke's fleet was delayed for a lot of time in this desolate star field.

Unable to wait any longer, Ofascist came to this star field in person, and with the invisible connection with Lucy, he found the exact location of the Heavenly Star in the vast star field.

Ofascis sighed, "Lucy has unearthed the relics of the Rose Empress's time on this planet, and brought back information about the Golden Tree Project. However, I checked the classics and literature, and there was no considerable record. Although we have lost a great deal of literature during the Void Age of Skyfire, I believe that the Golden Tree Project should have been artificially concealed. As for the reason, it is estimated that only the ancestors of that era knew it. But we don't have time to bother with this now, the Children of Dusk are a hundred times more important than the Empress's secret plan. ”

"You're right, but Your Majesty, do you think again? It would be relatively gentle for me to enter the interior of the planet and come into contact with Her Highness Lucy......"

"No need, my friend." Ofascist shook his head: "If Eren is indeed the child of twilight, then there is a dead knot between me and Lucy." Sooner or later, this knot will have to be tied, and even if you miss today, you will not be able to avoid the day to come. In that case, it makes little difference whether I go today or not. ”

Griffo looked at the Emperor, and obviously saw that the wrinkles on the Emperor's forehead had deepened a few points, and he sighed in his heart. finally had a chance to resolve old grievances with Lucy, and now because of Allen, I am afraid that the father and daughter will have to tie an unsolvable knot.

"Duke, let the fleet organize a space defense line, and no starship will be allowed to leave." Ofascist said in a heavy tone, "Let me go and talk to Lucy myself, I hope the situation doesn't have to be too stiff." ”

He turned and strode along, his scarlet cloak as hot as blood, and Griffo seemed to see the flames of war.

It was a war between their father and daughter.

"Ahh

In the hotel of Castle of Dawn, Lucy suddenly sat up on the large bed in her bedroom. She was sweating profusely, her face was white, and her heart was beating wildly. She had a dream in which she saw Alan standing in the midst of the flames, and the circle of flames burned around him like a barrier. But it must have been a fragile barrier, because beyond the ring of fire, there were countless enemies.

She vaguely remembered that Eren was standing alone on the top of a certain mountain, and that he was surrounded by enemies, all over the mountain, from different races. But they all have a common desire on their faces, and that is to kill Allen.

Alan's expression was calm, as if he was aware of her presence. In the firelight he looked at Lucy, his eyes as gentle as ever, and smiled and opened his mouth, then pounced on the star-studded foe.

Even though she couldn't hear anything, Lucy understood what he meant.

I love you.

It's just three words, but in that environment, it's as heavy as a mountain, so that Lucy can't breathe, and it's even more heartbreaking.

When she wanted to do something for Alan, the dream woke up.

Lucy sat on the bed and watched the sun creep up on the floor, it was already morning. She held her head and changed her clothes, and was just about to leave the bedroom when she saw a note by the door, which looked like someone had slipped in through the crack in the door. Lucy crouched down to pick up the note, and when she spread it out, her face changed suddenly.

There was a line written on it: Here he comes.

Which he?

The handwriting was recognizable as that of Chaglin's handwriting, and Lucy immediately pushed the door open and walked quickly to Chaglin's room. She rudely pushed the door open, but there was no figure in the bedroom. Charglin was gone, and with her words, Lucy had already guessed who he was referring to.

Ofasc, her father, the just king of Idahua!

Lucy's heart was beating wildly, and a voice screamed in her head: He's coming, he's going to take Alan.

"No, I won't let anyone take him, not even my father!" Lucy yelled, suppressing the voice in her head. Her voice was so pronounced in the early morning that a moment later, Lola and Regers arrived almost at the same time.

Seeing the pale Lucy, Lola snorted softly, hurriedly hugged her and exclaimed, "God, you're so cold." ”

Lucy's whole body was cold, but she couldn't care about herself now: "Lola, go wake everyone up." ”

"Why? What happened? ”

"Someone is coming, it's my father. He's here to take Eren away, and I can't let him do that, to wake everyone up and let those who want to help stay. If you don't want to, leave immediately......"

Before she could finish speaking, a voice sounded in Lucy's head: "No need, kid. I've arrived, let them continue to sleep, I just want to talk to you. ”

At the same time as this voice sounded, an invisible force suddenly fell, and Lola and Regess's expressions froze, and they both passed out at the same time. Lucy reached out and covered her mouth lightly, she could feel the hotel suddenly becoming quiet. No matter who it was, no matter what he was doing, he couldn't help but fall asleep at this moment under the pressure of the power of Ofasc.

A moment later, Lucy heard a knock on the door.

What should have come is coming, and Lucy calmed down now. She shook her arm, and the silver bracelet slipped off her wrist, transforming into a silver spider when it landed on the ground. Lucy said to the silver spider, "Put them on the bed." ”

The silver spider grew dramatically, eventually growing to the size of a puppy before stopping. The rest was easy, as it spat out a silver cobweb at the unconscious Lola and Regess, enveloping them and pulling them onto the bed. The webs were so flexible that they wouldn't scratch them even if they were dragged along the ground. However, when needed, each piece of silk in this web can become very sharp, and as soon as the web is closed, the prey in the web will be cut into pieces.

Watching the two of them put the silver spider on the big bed, Lucy walked out of the door, closed the door lightly, and then went to the hall. As soon as she entered the hall, she saw two figures. One of them was Griffo, the gentle duke nodding to her. The other was naturally Ofasc, and he was standing there, with an extraordinarily domineering posture that would be difficult to ignore even if it wanted to be ignored. It was as if he was the center of the entire universe, and wherever he went, he would become the focus of attention.

Lucy stopped when she saw him: "Father." ”

Ofascist turned around, and when he just turned around, his expression was as cold and hard as a piece of iron. But when he completely faced Lucy, he softened, and looking at his favorite daughter, the Emperor sighed: "I really don't want to come to you in this form, but Lucy, since Charglin has already come to see you, you should also know about Alan, right?" ”

"Teacher Shaglin did tell me a lot of things, including the Children of Dusk. But the teacher also said that even if Alan is a child of dusk, if he does not awaken for a day, there is no threat to this universe. This is the reason why the teacher hides the truth from you. ”

"Where's Charglin?" Ofasc said, "She must have left." Believe me, child, our marquis must be hiding something else, otherwise why wouldn't he see me? ”

"It's not that she's afraid of your punishment, it's just that the teacher thinks your intervention will make things worse." Lucy said, "The teacher foresaw cosmic twilight, but she also saw that there was more to twilight than end and despair. She wants you to give Alan some time and give the universe some hope. ”

Ofascist shook his head and said, "First of all, you have to understand, child. I can't take Shaglin's words lightly, I am the Emperor of Idahua, and I am responsible for the safety of my people. Secondly, I didn't intend to be bad for Allen, at least, I didn't want to hurt him. It's just that he has to come with me, at least, he has to stay where I can see. I promise that I will do nothing to him as long as he awakens at the end of the day. Instead, I will give him what he asks...... All! ”

Lucy laughed, "So you don't know Alan, father. He won't go with you, he's lost a lot, and he'd rather die if he loses his freedom! I hope you can trust me that I will stay with him and watch over him. I'm not going to turn him into a child of dusk, if he really awakens and wants to end everything. Then I'll be the first to finish, and I'm sure Alan won't do that. I believe he ......"

"I'm sorry, kid." Ofascist shook his head and said, "I can't bet my hopes on you or Chaglin, I can understand your feelings about protecting Alan, but I also ask you to understand my difficulties." If I were a simple father, I would trust you as much as you trust Alan. But I'm not just a father, I'm a king, and I need to be responsible for more lives. ”

Lucy nodded and laughed, "yes, I forgot that you are the king of justice. You only have one balance in mind, and you need to weigh it on whatever you want, don't you? Your Majesty Ofasc! ”

Ofasc sighed and said softly, "Tell me, child, where is Alan?" ”
