"The platform of the twelve stone pillars? That's where we got in. Claude said.

Luo Nai nodded and said, "That's right, I also traced the traces there to finally find you." ”

"But you just said that the portal shouldn't exist?" Claude continued.

"Yes," Lornay explained, "The portal really shouldn't exist. But we're not looking for portals, are we? What matters is that platform and those stone pillars. It is a legacy of the Second Age, created by the first wise men who followed the goddess Jana. These platforms spread across the land from north to south in the Eastern Continent. ”

"So, it sounds like a military one, and as far as I know, I've never seen anything like it in the main city. Sivir said.

With a smile on his face, Ronai continued, "You guessed right. The first teleportation masters have long since disappeared, and mages and prophets have created techniques that allow portals to be opened without the help of ruins. Therefore, after the Divine War, this ancient method was gradually phased out. But now, the most inconvenient is the most reliable. ”

"Then why don't you just open the portal?" Claude asked, scratching his hair.

"Sorry, kid. This form of magic was only in the hands of a few, and since the establishment of one main city after another, the range of life of various ethnic groups has shrunk. Most magicians are secretive, and they are reluctant to teach this technique. As you can see, I'm also in the category of people who can't open portals. Lornay explained patiently, which may have something to do with the fact that Lucian and O'Grey were still unconscious.

None of them could force their way forward with the huge beast spirit.

Sivir noticed that there were only those horrible bones around him except them, and he always felt uneasy before and after contacting Lonnay's words. "You're not just here for the four of us, are you?" asked Sivir.

Lornay was trying to wake up the remaining two, and when he heard this, he raised his head and smiled apologetically, saying, "In addition to Ice Blue, the three Ultimate Mentors and Irelia have all joined this 'rescue'. But I'm sorry, but I've only met you all along the way. How many more people are and where they are trapped, I can't be sure. ”

"I just heard you say it has something to do with the dark arts?" Claude said.

"Yes, but that's just speculation. Anyway, I need to wake them up and send you back to Queen's City. There should be a lot of these monsters, and it's a miracle that you've been able to hold on for so long. I don't know how long the other test takers will be able to hold up here. "Lornay doesn't hide anything about the people who are in the middle of it.

"Oh, after all, the Temple of Glory doesn't care about the lives of ordinary people. You are high up and worshipped by the whole world. Sivir looked disdainful, which in Claude's eyes was almost a provocation by Chiguoguo.

"Hey, Sivir, I believe they've done their best. Claude hurriedly interrupted.

Lornay replied in silence.

She was graceful throughout, saving people, answering questions, and even though Sivir spoke ill of her, she remained calm. On her face, any emotion is as still as water.

Sivir seemed to say something, but finally held back and did not speak.

Claude came back from the surrounding area to find some dry firewood, cleared the snow and threw it into the campfire. From the time of the attack to the moment of coma, the bonfire had long since been extinguished. Regenerating it was the only thing Claude could do for them right now.

Sivir's gaze lingered at her feet, the stiff corpses casting a heavy haze over her. The corpses were unarmed and their clothes were muddy, bloodstained, and tattered.

"You did it this time?" said Sivir.

Claude shook his head in silence, "Mentor Lornais, she saved us. ”

Sivir nodded, "They're just poor people. Controlled by the power of magic, the soul has long since left, but the body is not at peace. That night, I seemed to hear a wail. The wolves. I don't know why I heard it, but I did. ”

"What are you talking about?" Claude wondered.

Sivir turned to face the ignorant child, shook his head with a smile, and sighed softly, "It's nothing, with the body of death, the soul of filth." ”

Confused, Claude stood up like an electric shock and asked urgently, "Do you know this evil spell?"

"What spell?" said Sivir.

"With the body of death, purify the soul of defilement!" Ronay repeated in a low voice. Her face turned pale, unable to believe that the spell could come out of the mouth of a young Lonellan woman.

Sivir disagreed, "It's not a spell, it's just a ballad." ”

"Where did you hear that?" asked Lornais.

Sivir thought for a moment, and from the look on her face she didn't think this 'ballad' was anything extraordinary.

"It's engraved in my mind. Truth be told, I don't have much in my memory, and I don't know why I took part in this unfortunate trial. Do you think this is an evil spell? I'm sorry to tell you that this ballad is the only clear part of my remaining memory. ”

With the body of death, purify the soul of defilement.

The most sinister spell in the Soul Pact of the world-destroying goddess Dela. Thousands of years of baptism had finally silenced the spell that had almost destroyed the world, and the Blood Sacrifice Spell, which was not supposed to appear in the Third Age, happened to spit out lightly from the mouth of a young test taker at the time when the Jedi Illusion had been modified.

Lornay hunched over again, and she didn't ask anything. The woman had earned ten stars in the first two rounds, and that woman had slashed the Flame Demon with her earth-shattering power in the Valley of the Flame Demon...... At this point, Luo Nai seemed to have found the answer.

"Nothing, maybe I'm mistaken. ”

Lonay smiled back at Sivir, knowing that bringing them back to Queen City as soon as possible was the best way to solve the problem. The only confusion haunted me: why did the woman have such an unconcealed sympathy for the wreckage?

When Lucian and O'Grey finally wake up, Claude thought they would sweep the gloom away. Surprisingly, when they reawakened, this emotion did not appear for a long time.

Lucian hugged Claude excitedly, and spoke loudly of the fear of infinite proximity to death and the joy of "coming back from the dead". Claude coped with a smile, only the "confrontation" between Sivir and Lonay lingered in his mind. The battle of life and death once made Xavier his closest friend, but his strong strength and Lonai's demeanor all reminded him that that woman was extraordinary.

In retrospect, Sivir's identity is suspicious, and she is silent about her origins, but in the case of life and death, this woman has saved their lives again and again. And he worshipped the temple of great glory, and in the midst of his trials, he unexpectedly sent them to the point of life and death. If it weren't for Lonnay's own rescue, Claude might not have known if he was in a fantasy or reality.

"Let's go to the waypoint, we should go back. ”

Waiting for Lucian and O'Grey to add a bit, Lornay reminded.

So the group extinguished the bonfire and set out on the road. Lucian was still haunted by the wreckage, and couldn't help but quicken his pace as he passed them. Claude knew what he was afraid of, and even he didn't want to recall the pungent putrid smell himself. Claude glanced back at Orgrey, but sadly, the beast's face was full of holes.

Rumble......

There was a sudden roar in the white mist ahead, followed by the sound of stones crashing into the snow and tumbling again.

"What sound?" said Lucian.

Claude tried to see the front clearly, but the white mist only increased, and even had the potential to pounce on him!

"Snow, avalanche?"

Claude subconsciously took a few steps back in quick succession. The oncoming cold aura was obviously speeding up at an extremely fast pace, forming a violent storm in an instant. The gray-white snow waves violently broke through the white fog and pressed with an extremely turbulent force.

"Avalanche!" Claude yelled.

"All stand behind me!" said Lornais, hurrying to the crowd.

Immediately, the green-clothed elf mentor rushed to the front of the crowd, stretched out his right hand straight ahead, and opened his palm, and a hemispherical barrier emitting a faint light opened up. The moment the storm made contact with the barrier, the invisible force forced the snow wave to deviate from its tracks, and the body of the elf supporting the barrier trembled violently.

The storm was so violent that Lornay bent his knees slightly, and even stretched out his left hand to help barely resist it. Claude, who was standing behind him, clearly saw that the pair of arms had protruded green tendons!

The roar of the blizzard and the gray-white waves of snow obscured the world for a moment. In the midst of the huge sound, Lornais's hoarse cry was incomparably smaller.

Stop it!

Stop!
