Chapter 362: Goodbye, Friend
After the Winter Festival, the weather tends to be sunny throughout the empire, and although the cold does not abate, the heavy snow that people are looking forward to has never fallen into the hinterland of the empire.
Adventurers and merchants returning from the north still hear a little bit of news about the snowy days in the north. However, most of this kind of news is only mentioned in passing between other content exchanges.
Because in the minds of most people, the snow castle in the north of the border is an incomparably distant place, and even some people will never step into the seemingly remote mountains and wilderness for the rest of their lives.
More people will only focus on the life in front of them.
For example, they would not have noticed a flying warship that swept over them from a height of 10,000 meters above their heads.
Su Wen set the driving mode to automatic, and the destination was somewhere in the mountains and forests in the south of Ellie's hometown, where Su Wen and Mia first met Daniel and his party.
It is also where Amar's tombstone is located.
Di Li stuck to the porthole, her eyes widened, greedily taking in the scenery on the ground. She never imagined that one day, she would be able to take to the skies and be in a battleship that was the result of ancient wisdom and technology!
Even His Majesty the Emperor of the Maleno Empire has never enjoyed this kind of treatment, right?......
In contrast to Di Li, Dapan was sitting on the chair, his seat belt tightened, and there was a hint of nervousness on his face. Obviously, he knew very well about "flying at high speed above 10,000 meters", so he naturally felt scared.
"Dapan, come and see! Here's Longjiang!!Look at it! Maybe you'll see our academy!!"
"......" Dapan remained motionless, pretending not to hear.
This safe and comfortable way to travel is an unimaginable luxury for anyone, let alone flying.
With the exception of the legendary dragon knights, even some great magicians can only perform simple magic such as levitation or gliding over short distances.
Before dawn, Su Wen put Di Li and Da Pan on the battleship, and then rushed all the way south with Daniel's relics.
First, Su Wen wanted Daniel and Amal to "get together". Second, that is, Su Wen needs to observe the state of these two people on the battleship.
Di Li and Dapan are now pure human beings, or are they systematic creations dressed in human skin.
This point, Su Wen must confirm.
However, the journey has already passed halfway, and the situation of the two of them is not abnormal, and Su Wen has relaxed a little.
As soon as the freshness of flying in the sky passed, Di Li and Dapan's emotions couldn't help but fall again.
After all, they had just lost a close friend not so long ago.
"Mr. Su Wen...... Daniel he, why ......"
"There are two possibilities, first, that he was originally the same existence as Amal, but it was only revealed not long ago. Su Wen said slowly, but the two of them didn't believe in this assumption.
So Su Wen went on to say the second hypothesis: "The second possibility is that that night, Amal secretly turned Daniel into that existence, and we didn't notice this fact. Which one do you believe?"
"......" Di Li was silent.
Dapan thought about it seriously and said, "From that day on, I do feel that Daniel has changed a little...... However, I thought it was the reason for the loss of Ammar........."
"Mr. Su Wen, you may not know that when the three of us met Amal, it was due to a conflict, and the two of them had a fight at that time. But after leaving, Daniel kept telling me how the girl was......"
Later, after going through a lot of things, the relationship between the two of them gradually became familiar and developed on the good side, but both of them seemed to be a little reserved and did not pierce the layer of window paper. ”
Su Wen glanced back and forth on the faces of the two with a look of "aren't you the same?"
"Ahem, ahem. Di Li coughed twice, then frowned slightly, and asked the question that she had been thinking about for a long time: "Is it really the Ancient Demon Sect that made the two of them like that?"
"Not really. Su Wen gave a negative answer, and then told the truth, little by little, to the two of them.
Including his own identity and origin, memory, experience since awakening and the existence of the system, Su Wen told the two of them. Even the state of Amar and Daniel, Su Wen explained to the two of them in detail.
The expressions on the faces of the two of them who listened to everything were ten times more surprised than when they boarded this battleship!
"So, I'm also responsible for a big part of what happened to Amar and Daniel, so, I'm sorry. ”
For the two who lost their best friends, Su Wen lowered his head and sincerely apologized to the two.
"It's not Mr. Su Wen's fault!" Di Li bit her lip, rejected Su Wen's apology, and said her thoughts in Su Wen's somewhat puzzled gaze.
"It's obviously the fault of the bad guy behind the scenes! He was the one who wanted to kill Mr. Su Wen! He was the one who harmed Amar and Daniel! Why did Mr. Su Wen apologize......
"If they hadn't met me, the seeds in their bodies wouldn't have sprouted......
"If that bad guy doesn't do anything, won't we be fine!"
Su Wen was silent, and the two of them also needed to digest the huge amount of information they had just gotten, so they stopped talking.
In silence, the battleship reached its destination.
Su Wen took the two of them, jumped from the battleship, and landed in this familiar mountainous area.
In a short period of time, this woodland, which had been destroyed at the time, began to regain its vitality: vines and weeds had begun to grow, and the traces of their activity were covered by nature.
Di Li and Dapan dug another pit next to Amal's tombstone, and then put some of Daniel's personal belongings in it and covered it with soil.
In that state, death took away all traces of their existence, and all that was left was a fleeting brilliance reflected in the eyes of a few people.
The two stood in front of the tombstone, silent, for a long time.
"Finished?"
"It's over. ”
Su Wen nodded, drew a circle casually, wrapped the two of them in their clothes, and then pressed down with one hand, sinking the land into the ground.
"Sooner or later, adventurers will arrive here, so give them a quieter environment. ”
Dapan and Di Li turned their heads, glanced at the slowly sinking tombstone with some reluctance, and then followed Su Wen and said goodbye to this place.
Life goes on.
