2-032 Ruins and Rituals

"Stop. Pen ~ Fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info" Suna shouted, and the dancer on the tree stopped scattering flowers. Then she approached Ekard to take a closer look and shook her head. Smeria took the cushion out of her abdomen, and it looked like today's treatment had failed again. But she didn't give up, believing that this way would wake up Ecard sooner or later.

The other day, Smeria asked if there was a way to wake up Ecard. Suna tells her that if she says something that resonates with Ecard, she might wake up one day.

Ollie looked at the second sister with a black line on his face, and he could think of such a two-handed thing. But Smeria believed it, pestering Suna every day to ask her for help in thinking of words and things that would resonate with Ecard. Today, the second sister had a whim again, invited a few dancers, directed such a play, and by the way, asked someone who knew shorthand to record this paragraph.

The garrison has stepped up patrols in the city to guard against the recurrence of terrorists. And Elchea sent people to keep an eye on the harbor 24 hours a day, in case the sea tribe entered the city from the port, and of course this cost was calculated on the garrison. Both sides rejoiced.

But at this time, there was chaos in the Sea Clan Palace. The broken vessel and the unjust death of the maid undoubtedly proved his anger at this time.

The sea general Sairen was covered in aquatic plants and wrapped in a green mummy. The damage caused to her by the alchemy flames, even if she used the deep sea grass that had a magical healing effect on the sea clan, she still couldn't completely heal her injuries in one day.

"It has been ascertained that the person who came into contact with Yadema is on that island (the Sea people consider the land to be an island). All known aliens have been dealt with. The minister was incompetent, and failed to fulfill His Majesty's instructions twice in a row. I am willing to be punished by Your Majesty. Seren, in severe pain, knelt before the throne.

"Hmph, rubbish. I gave you two chances to do it. What's the use of leaving you, come here. The Sea Emperor threw the glass to the ground again (Note 1).

"In. The left and right guards responded.

"Banish her to the border, never to return. ”

The left and right guards pressed Seren down. Seeing Sailian go out of the palace gate, the Sea Emperor's cold eyes suddenly flashed with a trace of pity, but soon returned to the original state.

"Where is Emmadena. ”

"The minister is here. A female Sea Clan in the main hall stood up and knelt in front of the Sea Emperor's Throne.

"From now on, you will succeed Selen as the commander of the Third Sea Regiment. ”

"Yes. ”

"In addition, to spread my will, the First to the Seven Seas Regiment will set out in three days to follow me to capture Yademara. I want to go on a personal expedition. ”

"Your Majesty is wise. ”

The camera pans to the surface of the sea.

During the night, the Utopiology's speed dropped to 35 knots. But throughout the day, the speed of the flotilla remained above 42 knots throughout. In the original design, there was no design that could maintain more than 40 knots in the whole process. The reason for this is that there aren't enough wind mages to drive the mana. But for Chiernis, this is not a problem at all. Almost all of his sailors had some rudimentary wind magic. Although not very proficient, it can barely meet the requirements of magic drive. What's more, there were already several ship-accompanying wind mages stationed in the fleet. In addition, there are also several of the four princesses' personal guards who can be called on temporarily. In this way, it is already much faster than the original voyage, and it will not even take a month to return home.

After more than a week of sailing, the temperature is no longer so cold. It's just that the night sea breeze still stings a little on the bare skin.

At the bow of the ship, Chirnith is having a tryst with a young girl with a princess crown on her head. The girl wore a coat of Chirnith and stretched out her arms against the biting sea breeze. Chirness was behind her and hugged her by the waist.

The surrounding sea breeze stopped, but there was a heavy fog. The watchman on duty panicked and reported the situation to his superiors.

"It's foggy. Does it feel familiar?" the girl asked.

"You mean the one in the Anite Gorge?" Chirnith immediately thought of it. He raised his nose and sniffed, "There is no smell of salted fish, I hope it's not a bad thing." ”

"Crow's beak. The girl snorted proudly.

When the fog was clearing, somewhere on the deck of the ship, White Mist and several people were holding a mysterious ceremony. I saw that Bai Mist took out the stone and scales given by the dragon shadow from his body, and slowly put them into the body of another clansman. In the process, the clansman appeared to be in unusually painful pain. Then, the entire scale and stone began to dissolve throughout his body. The pain all over his body eventually caused him to faint.

Although the sacrifice fainted, it did not prevent the ritual from proceeding.

The six clansmen, including Bai Mist, each stood in the corner of the sacrifice, forming a hexagonal magic array. Aim your shield at the central offering and tap the bottom of your shield against the deck. Then, at the same speed, the six people made three clockwise and two more counterclockwise circles around the offering. As it swirled, the six of them chanted ancient incantations together. Finally, all six men drew their swords at the same time, and the tips of their knives touched in the center, above the sacrifice. A white rune appeared underneath the tip of the knife.

Under the light of the runes, the bodies of the sacrifices on the ground gradually turned into a white mist, which was completely absorbed by the white runes.

After absorbing it, the runes flickered brightly and darkly. When the six drew their knives, the runes exploded immediately. The crushed powder drifted into the fog.

All six of them sat on the ground. Although the ceremony was short, the consumption of these six people was very huge. The fog has not yet lifted, but the wind is blowing. And the sound of the wind they heard in the white fog had a different meaning.

"Thank you. I'm much better. Please don't sacrifice your people. I have nothing left to repay you. ”

"No, beloved Wind Lord. Even if you don't get anything in return, you are our most important relative. Without you, the anemo-plane would be completely out of control. With that alone, even if our entire clan disappears, we must keep you safe. ”

The wind didn't continue to blow, and the fog began to dissipate.

"What do I think I just heard?" said the girl.

"No, I didn't hear anything. Chirnith lied with his ears closed.

The surrounding fog cleared, and the two ships were still moving smoothly on the sea. The panicked lookout had already been scolded by his superiors, who let him disturb his good deeds at a critical moment.

"Take the change of guard now, hurry back and rest. Chiernis hastened to find a reason.

"Well, you get to rest early, too. The girl stood on tiptoe and kissed Chirness on the cheek.

Back in the command room, the mage leader was waiting for him at the door.

"My lord, there was a strange fluctuation of magic just now. During the time when the fog was blowing just now, the activity of the wind elemental suddenly became extremely high, but the opposing earth elemental did not feel any activity. ”
