Chapter Seventy-Six: The Apostle's Relic

A huge barrier to the sky, with its azure brilliance reaching into the sky, like a waterfall flowing down from the sky, but in fact, the opposite is true, these lutes rise from the ground. The darkness of the night seems to be blocked by this blue light, creating a unique scene. A light comparable to the stars in the sky guides the lost human beings. Standing under such a huge barrier, Hain couldn't help but feel that this was a task that only natural ingenuity could do.

Standing in front of such a waterfall is like standing in a fairyland, and the lute that is slightly emitted into the air makes people feel refreshed. Looking up at the end of the barrier, the end as far as the eye can see is still the same barrier, and I can't see its end at all, and I don't know how high the light of hope has reached tens of thousands of miles. Strangely, Hain's party had been walking through the woods, and at a distance of a kilometer from the Light of Hope, not even a single grass could be seen.

Hain reached out to touch the Light of Hope, "It's the first time I've seen the Light of Hope so closely, I didn't expect it to be such a spectacular barrier. ”

"I advise you not to touch it, though the light of hope is a fortification against the apostles. But if humans touch it rashly, cruel things will happen. Geist mysteriously warned Hain.

"Geist, you're just talking nonsense here, what's going to happen, you know?" Hain knew that it wouldn't be a good thing to touch lightly, but he still wanted to tease Geist.

"The light of hope will instantly suck the lute out of your body, and it only takes a few seconds. If you don't believe me, you can touch it, I warned you anyway. ”

"Forget it, I'll trust you for the time being. How far is it from our destination. Didn't you say that there was only a kilometer away?" Hain knew that Geist's words were not alarmist, he withdrew his hand, after all, he didn't want to be absorbed by the light of hope to absorb his own Lute, if Lute was absorbed, then the human death would be ugly, and it was estimated that he would become a dry corpse.

"It's not far off, but we need to walk through the light of hope. This is not a place to stay for long. Geist pointed to the brilliance on his body, which was several people whose bodies were wrapped in halos of different colors. The beautiful fluorescence is extremely beautiful, and the three people are like luminescent creatures in the deep sea. It's more like three light bulbs that light up the sky in the dark.

Beneath every beauty in nature lies a murderous motive, "Is this the Lute in us slowly draining, is this the power of the Light of Hope?"

"That's right, although the Lute emitted by the light of hope just now makes people feel very comfortable, but now the Lute in our bodies is slowly sucked away by the light of hope. If you look at the surroundings, you know that it used to be a dense forest. ”

It was indeed strange for Hain to look around, could it be that the light of hope had absorbed all the natural world around him. "Well, it's a veritable barren place. ”

"That's right, that's it, even the beasts don't dare to come near here. Ten years ago, however, it was a jungle teeming with life. Geist came to answer Hayne's questions.

"Then let's go! We're not a biological conservation organization, so we're in no mood to bother with these issues. And I don't want to be a dead body because of the light of hope. Hayne said.

Gesther nodded, and took out a source energy stone from his pocket, the value of the Ammir source energy stone is not very high, it can be said to be priceless. Some people even treat these humble stones as family heirlooms. But there are many functions of these stones, which they don't know. Geist approached the Light of Hope with a small piece of Source Energy Stone that emitted a faint halo. Loert immediately followed Geist.

"What are you doing? Such a small stone, you are still a lifesaver. As Hain spoke, he saw that the Light of Hope had opened a corridor for Geist.

"Why do you talk so much nonsense, and you still say that I am a talker, I think you are a talker. Don't underestimate this stone, even if you work hard all your life, you may not be able to save enough for this price. Hurry up and keep up! The passage will close in a moment. Geist turned back and beckoned to Hayne. Hayne quickly followed.

Hain didn't expect that walking inside the light of hope had a fantastical sense of time, he felt like he was walking on a long undersea passage, through the curved dome above his head, he could see some looming points of light, those were probably the stars in the sky! Some silk-like flocculent objects fluttered in the light of hope, those were the wonders of Lute with different attributes, more like the aurora than silk. This fantastic scenery is unique in the world.

"Ahh

"Look at your strange expression, it's the first time we've walked through here. To say how far it is, theoretically the Light of Hope has a thickness of 300 to 500 meters, but we are not walking in a straight line, there should probably be some distance. Geist said with a smile.

Hain: Soon the light of hope will close again, and from a distance they will look like a big bubble, floating in the ocean of the light of hope. Hayne looked around like a curious child, and by this moment he had forgotten his mission.

"It's beautiful......! It's beautiful! Do you have any idea of living here?" asked Hain.

"Don't look at the Light of Hope, I've heard it's dangerous. At the beginning of the establishment of the Light of Hope, many people also had this kind of thinking about you. If the city were built in the light of hope, then no apostles would have been able to invade. But soon they abandoned the idea. Geist told Hayne the old story.

Hain's appetite was aroused at once, and he asked anxiously, "Yes! If you build a city in the light of hope, you can't imagine what a wonderful thing it is." It is possible to defend against the invasion of the apostles, and it is possible to live in such a beautiful place. ”

"Alas...... If you live in such an environment every day, you don't feel that this is a beautiful scenery. And the most important issue is the side effects of the Light of Hope on humanity. ”

"What are the side effects??" asked Hayne, and Lort looked at Geist curiously.

Geist stopped suddenly, "Although humans can move in the Light of Hope through the Source Energy Stone, it is said that even if they come into contact with the Light of Hope for such a long time, it will cause humans to hallucinate, which is still very serious. Even mercenary patrols only patrol at a distance of two kilometers outside of the Light of Hope, probably for this reason. Besides, the Source Energy Stone is so precious that not everyone can afford it. This plan is completely the imagination of a utopian and unrealistic!"

Hayne thought about it, and Geist's words did make a lot of sense. "Since the Source Energy Stone is so precious, how did you get this. Don't tell me I picked it up. Hain said, pointing to the stone in Geist's hand.

"Well, I won't tell you the secret. Geist said mysteriously.

Hain thought for a moment, "Leon asked them to carry out this mission, which means that Leon knows Geist's method of passing through the Light of Hope again. Therefore, it is highly likely that this stone was given to him by Leon. But other possibilities exist. ”

After walking for more than ten minutes, they finally walked out of the light of hope. They stood on a hillside, overlooking the forest below. Deep in the forest, a fire could be faintly seen in the towering forest. Hain looked closely, it looked like a circular arena building, could it be the remains of the apostles? The visual distance is only 500 meters away.

"Where is it?" asked Hain.

"I guess so!" Geist took out his map and looked at it carefully. Lorte cautiously observed the ruins, "Be careful. Lorte fell to the ground at once. Immediately afterwards, Geist and Hain also lay on the ground, and the atmosphere did not dare to catch more.

It was a long time before Hain asked, "What's the matter, Lort!"

Lorte pointed to the ruins, and the situation was not clear in the faint firelight, and after Lorte's guidance, Hain also saw clearly. The apostles of all sizes in the arena were walking aimlessly. They seemed to be looking for something. But it doesn't look like it's been a battle.

"What a situation, so many apostles. It's just that so far away that it is not possible to determine their rank. It seems that there is no fighting. Geist, can you determine the location of Elise and Ramona?" Hain asked.

"Doesn't that mean the situation is urgent? Why can't you see those two people, and there's no sign of a fight, is it a trap?" said Geist to himself. He turned to look at Hayne, "What do you think?"

"It's not impossible to have a trap, but why did the apostle do it? just to lure a few mercenaries to come to the rescue?

If you had understood what the apostles were thinking, we would not have to be here on our mission, for the king would have received you long ago. Geist poured a basin of cold water on Hayne's head.

"Well, then the possibility of a trap cannot be ruled out. Our first task is to find Elise and Ramona, and then preferably after dawn, it's too dark for us. Hain looked at the sky, "It shouldn't be long before dawn." ”

Geist smiled, "I have a way to determine the location of Elise and Ramona. As he spoke, he held up his arm, a bracelet of the same style as Izawa.

"Oh my God, Geist, when are you going to sell your jewelry, it's pretty good. Can you give me one for free? Hain said and touched Geist's bracelet, a little in love.
