Chapter 191 of Section C: Tower of Remembrance (The Awakened)

What were the shelves here, and although he looked at them and saw that he could go upstairs, he decided to look at the bookshelves first and finish the survey. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

So, he reached for it and picked up a book.

The books are written about history, or magical texts and alchemic knowledge...... Wait a minute.

There didn't seem to be anything that would help him sort things out or be interesting. Apart from......

Mmmm, what is this? He looked at a book on the table next to the bookshelf, and he was intrigued: the title of the book written on it was "The Book of Memory".

But when he eagerly opened it, there was nothing in it. And when I tried to take it away, the book stayed firmly on it as if it were glued.

Anyway, I didn't expect anything from it...... Thinking helplessly, the man turned around and walked directly up the stone staircase, wanting to go upstairs to have a look.

It seems that this tower is only distinguished by the bottom and the top of the tower.

Soon, he walked up the spiral staircase to the top of the tower. It's quiet, as if there's no one.

As soon as his hand touched the door, he felt a little uneasy.

...... What's going on? This mood......

Feeling more and more uncomfortable, he hesitated, but finally pushed the door open.

What unfolds in front of you is a tranquil rotunda.

Only in the very center of the rotunda stands a stone statue

From the outside, is this tower so big? The man wondered: Did I see it wrong or did I ...... it?

But doubts aside, he finally chose to walk into the room and look around.

There was nothing in the room - except for the delicate stone statue.

and the closed carved brown door opposite.

This statue is really rare...... It's as lifelike as a living person.

Curious, he approached the statue and looked at him: it was amazing how well the armor was carved.

The armor on this stone statue protects the body tightly, and it must be extremely strong in reality.

I really want to know the craftsman who can carve this kind of stone statue.

No longer paying attention to the statue, he approached the carved door and tried to open it. However, just as he touched the door, there was a strange noise from the stone statue.

...... turned his head in shock, and he slashed in fear, and the stone on the stone statue began to show cracks. And just a moment later, the stone on the surface turned into splinters and cracked, and from inside stood the heavily armored warrior.

The statue was not carved, but a petrified warrior.

Given that he stays in this position...... It looks like it's guarding something.

...... For example, the carved door.

Sensing that something was not right, he hurriedly tried to push open the door and escape: hide in first!

And the door in front of him seemed to be locked for some reason and could not be pushed open.

Immediately shocked, he hurriedly turned around, and subconsciously took a step back to get some distance.

However, at this time, the enemy had already pulled out the weapon at his waist and slowly walked towards the man.

And the door that I walked through when I came in was actually closed by a thick black fog.

He was completely enclosed in his room.

Of course, the men themselves don't know. He thought the black fog could pass through, so he planned to flee the way he came.

How...... Why did he attack me? The man hurriedly drew his broadsword at his waist and was nervous: Oops!

At the same time, he found himself unable to make a sound.

For some reason, he couldn't speak after the black fog sealed the entrance.

...... Although, you can still make some shouts.

It's like being in a nightmare...... Unable to successfully organize the language.

The expectation of communication with the other party was also disappointed.

The enemy doesn't want to talk nonsense at all, but maybe he can't make a sound.

...... In short, it was as if he just wanted to fight, and rushed straight towards the man.

In the next moment, he hurriedly jumped sideways, dodged the blow from the petrified guard's heavy axe, and quickly ran towards the exit.

Go out...... He was firmly blocked by the black mist, and a burst of chagrin immediately appeared in his heart: What the hell is this!

Do I have to stay here and face this enemy?

The petrified guards move rather slowly. It doesn't seem to have recovered from the petrification yet. However, it is already getting faster and faster. If this continues, maybe after a while, he will be able to move freely.

The enemy silently approached the man, and with each step, there was a heavy metal trampling sound.

And the man, too, gritted his teeth and decided to fight hard.

...... Come on!

With a broadsword in his hand, he decided to fight the enemy head-on.

There's not much else to choose from anyway.

And just as he rushed forward to decide the battle, the petrified guard suddenly took a step back and stood still, covered in stone.

What was going on? The man's instinctive feeling was not right, and he didn't come any closer: he was back to what he had been?

That's good, I should be able to get out...... It's easy to die no matter how you look at fighting that kind of guy.

However, when he looked back at the exit, he was extremely disappointed: there was still a black fog in front of the door.

What is going on?!As he approached the enemy with a question, a crack suddenly appeared in the petrified guard's body.

Before he could react, the petrified guard's stone armor burst open, scattering countless fragments that pierced the man's body. He stared in shock and fell to the ground without even reacting.

And his body, too, slowly dissipated into a void light as he lost consciousness and soaked in a pool of blood.

............

Aking suddenly, he found himself standing in the small room on the first floor of the tower with maps and steles inscribed on them.

And the pain in his body also made him tremble subconsciously, and then let out a miserable scream in fear.

However, the scream was not due to the pain just now.

It's because I'm obviously dead just now......

Why is it that he has been resurrected here now?

He looked at all this in shock, clutching his chest in surprise.

...... There was no blood there.

Even the sword that came out of his hand is now well inserted in his waist.

He subconsciously felt that he had just been in a dream. Otherwise, you're already crazy.

"Rebirth...... Then wake up from a new dream. ”

...... As long as you haven't lost your will.

No matter how powerful the enemy is, it will eventually be crossed, right?

...... The Awakened.

This is just your first challenge.

After that, there may be an endless stream of powerful enemies waiting for you, right?

......

Don't give up too soon and go as far as you can.

I need to look into your horizon...... to learn more
