Chapter 207: Ruins
The dark clouds in the void slowly dissipated, and the afterglow of the setting sun pierced through the clouds, covering the land with gold again.
The thunder continued for a whole afternoon, and the terrifying lightning also destroyed the top of the north peak for half a day.
The former tallest mountain in the Kingdom of Hikari has been split by a tenth of its size, and at its current height, it is no longer the title of the highest peak.
At this moment, the top of the north peak has changed its appearance, and those towering castles are gone, leaving only a devastated mess.
Prince Shikari stood among the broken bricks, his eyes blank. And between these stone debris, there are only a few broken bricks, and you can see the remnants of the centuries-old castle.
A thunderstorm, a catastrophe.
Originally, on the happy day of his son's wife, the ancient castle that his family had guarded for hundreds of years dissipated and annihilated.
What does this castle mean?
Of course, it means the glory of his Shikari family, and the belonging of a family.
But now, it's gone.
Luckily for the misfortune, that damn guy warned in advance, and let his people and a group of attendants go down the mountain early, and no one died in this thunderstorm.
But what about your own home?
Naturally, it was ruined.
Completely ruined.
Prince Shikari had no idea how many treasures he had in his castle, or how many treasures he had collected, but he knew one thing very well, that the wealth in his castle was enough for all the people of the kingdom to eat and drink for years.
But now, it's all gone.
Shikari stood quietly in the ruins, his empty eyes as if reflecting his dull heart at the moment.
Until now, he couldn't believe it was all true.
Just when Prince Shikari was in a daze, several figures also quietly jumped to the top of the mountain. Four of the Grand Dukes were on the list, including Jester and Fiona.
Everyone at the top of the mountain had settled down, and although no one had lost their lives, many people were slightly injured by the aftershocks of the first wave of lightning strikes.
Among them, the people who were closest to Li Yanbei were seriously injured, but fortunately, they were not worried about their lives.
After settling their subordinates and relatives and friends at the bottom of the mountain, several people climbed to the top of the mountain again.
Vlad Kimir and Assammet were worried about Li Yanbei, so they went up the mountain again to take a look, and the two archdukes, Gilles Delles and Casio, were not good at leaving at this time, so they also came up to take a look at the situation.
The four Grand Dukes saw the mess in their eyes, and their hearts gradually sank. And Prince Hikari's dull gaze also made the four of them shut their mouths in amusement.
This was even more tragic than a great war, because the Imperial War of a hundred years ago did not affect the royal city.
Prince Shikari was confident that as long as he was alive, no one would attack this place.
This depends on its own strength, as well as means and strategy.
Prince Shikari was not lacking in either of these things, so he never imagined that he would see such a scene.
Time passed minute by minute, and the people who had been hiding under the mountain also re-climbed the mountain.
Everyone wanted to know what had become of the top of the mountain after such a thunderstorm.
The crowd grew, but it was silent.
Everyone was stunned by what was happening, without exception.
Seeing Prince Hikari's dejected appearance, Jester and Fiona didn't dare to talk more.
They carefully dispersed their spiritual power, carefully searching for Li Yanbei's breath in the ruins.
However, just after this thunder tribulation, the spiritual power on the top of the North Peak was disordered, and the remaining electricity and thunder power brought great interference to the spiritual power. If you want to find Li Yanbei at this time, it is even more difficult.
After searching for a moment, Jester and Fiona still found nothing. The worry in the hearts of the two of them gradually began to thicken.
"Jester. ”
Fionadette's eyebrows condensed slightly, and she whispered to Jester,
"Can you feel the breath of His Highness Roy?"
Jester's face was solemn, and he was no longer as relaxed as before. He shook his head slowly, and whispered,
"The power of thunder here is very strong, and the mental power and perception are deeply disturbed. Only when you get closer can you find it. With my current mental strength, I must at least be within a distance of ten steps to perceive the aura of the deacon. ”
Hearing this, Fiona's brow furrowed even tighter. Originally, the top of this north peak could accommodate more than a dozen ancient castles, and the courtyard was also very vast, but now the entire mountain peak has been slashed by the Nine Heavens Thunder Tribulation so much, but the area is also much larger.
With Jester's tenth-order spiritual power, it would take ten steps to go, so he could only search within three steps. It would take a long time to search for such a large place.
Li Yanbei did not go down the mountain with the crowd just now, and the power of this thunder tribulation is obvious to all. Having survived so many heavy thunderstorms, his current situation should be extremely dangerous.
Seeing Fiona's eager expression, Jester comforted in a slow voice,
"Fiona, don't worry too much. Since the deacon chose to stay here, he must have been prepared. He has always been cautious and careful, and there should be no problem. ”
Jester's reassurance had no effect, as it wasn't the first time Fiona had been subjected to the thunderstorm. What she can be sure of is that thunder will fall on Li Yanbei's head these days, and no matter where he runs, he will not avoid it, exactly the same as the situation last time in Brand.
He chose to stay at the top of the mountain, just so that the thunder would not hurt the innocent these days. And when she thought of the scene when this guy restrained himself and let Jester take him down the mountain just now, when the thunder was about to fall, her heart couldn't help but tremble fiercely.
Fiona knew that Li Yanbei was doing this for her own good. If this guy didn't restrain himself, he would never have gone down the mountain so easily.
The people in the dark curtain are different from her, these guys have a blind worship of Li Yanbei. His words are like a holy decree, and the people in the dark will only carry them out without any consideration. This naturally includes Jester, as well as Nero and Collinder.
But she didn't want to say anything about Jester right now. She didn't want to voice her worries and let Jester share them. She feared that telling the truth would shake Jester's mind, and it might affect his perception.
Fiona silently released her spiritual power and began to search inch by inch, but after working hard for a long time, she only discovered a small range.
On the other side, Jester had a much larger range of exploration than her, but the process was still slow. Gradually, Fiona became anxious.
"That's not going to work!"
Fiona bit her lip hard.
"If it continues like this, then ······"
Just as she had only been halfway to speak, a groan suddenly sounded in the ruins not far away.
"Forehead ······"
Fiona and Jester were slightly startled, and then their eyes looked in the direction from which the voice came.
Gravel and clods of earth slowly churned, and a few weak coughs became clearer. Just as everyone was stunned, a figure staggered to its feet.
"I... I'm going to ······."
"You... Your uncle······"
I saw that Li Yanbei's face was covered with dust and hair, and his body was covered with scars.
His current embarrassed appearance may have never appeared in this life or even in his previous life.
"Three... Thirty-Nine Heavenly Tribulation ······"
Li Yanbei staggered to his feet, and a mouthful of blood spurted out like this.
"Also... It's really exciting······"
