Chapter 56: The Real Vision
Magellan walked up to the countess and looked at the cups with her. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
"First of all, exclude this plain wooden cup......"
"The question now is, where is the real Holy Grail. The countess interrupted Magellan unceremoniously, and a smile appeared on his face, indeed, the pile of cups was full of fakes, and it was clear at a glance.
Like a lion, the giant beast on one side folded its wings and lay on the ground, resting its head on its front paws, looking lazy.
Magellan turned to look at the door of the hall and smiled: "Why are we all running into these problems that shouldn't have arisen?"
The countess shook her hand: "Follow me." ”
Magellan followed her for a few steps, and suddenly understood: "The light here is made of the Holy Grail?"
"Almost all of the sacred objects of Scientology have this ...... Function. ”
They eventually stopped in front of a shrine dug out of a stone wall, which contained the Holy Grail.
It was a completely different cup from Magellan's dream, like a wooden cup with a layer of gold on the outside and a huge ruby set with it.
"That's ......"
Magellan smiled, and he suddenly realized that he had found the Holy Grail, but they didn't know what to do next.
"And now, go out with the Holy Grail?"
He knew that Morning Star must be waiting for them outside.
"If the Holy Grail were on us, Luna wouldn't use magic. ”
"What about the knight?"
"As long as you dare to block his sword with the Holy Grail, then he will definitely not dare to cut you with his sword. ”
Magellan nodded and picked up the chalice.
Then the light in the hall was gone, and in the darkness, the golden soot left behind by the behemoth as it dissipated was the last thing Magellan saw.
He was just about to take the lamp out of his bosom when the countess did something in the darkness when a ball of light appeared above them, illuminating the area.
Then, unsurprisingly, Luna appeared in the darkness in the distance.
Magellan suddenly thought to himself, what if Morning Star didn't know that the Holy Grail was in his hand and raised his hand to explode.
However, Her Majesty the Empress of the Holy Loren Empire was much wiser than he thought.
"Hand over the Holy Grail. ”
Although she is fluent in Bretanian, she has a Francie accent and an inexplicable tenderness.
But Magellan knew that there was no tenderness in Morningstar's heart, only the coldness of a soldier.
He held up the chalice in his hand for the morning star in the darkness to see, and Magellan wanted to say something.
At that moment, a figure burst out of the darkness beside him, and slashed at his arm, holding the Holy Grail.
Magellan turned his face to look at the man, his armor densely embedded with iron sand, it was the knight who had fallen with Magellan.
In the midst of the lightning, Magellan only had time to retract his hand, but he could not dodge the sword.
A sharp pain came from his arm, and Magellan scolded the knight in his heart for being shameless, he should have gone outside to join Luna, took advantage of the darkness to touch here and then stood still, just waiting for Magellan to send him to the door, it was really not knightly at all.
The sword was a failure, at least it failed to cut off Magellan's right hand and let the Holy Grail fall into his hands, as the knight had hoped.
But Magellan was not feeling well, and he glanced at it, and the sword had drawn a long wound in his forearm, and the muscles were turned outward, and it was bloody. Roughly estimated, this arm is useless, and it's hard to say whether it can hold the Holy Grail steadily. The good news is that there is no damage to the arteries, at least for the time being.
But Magellan felt that they were already in danger, and the knight wanted to rob the Holy Grail, and he couldn't stop it at all, and when the Holy Grail was snatched away, they would have to eat the Big Bang of the Morning Star.
The knight really didn't care about the Holy Grail, he took a step forward with one sword, and the next sword came directly to Magellan's head.
Magellan didn't have time to react at all, only to see the blade of the sword in front of his eyes.
At that moment, his eyes widened, and there was only one thought in his heart: "I want to see how I died." ”
However, it was then that he suddenly went into a trance.
In a trance, Magellan's eyes were dazzled, and he saw that everything around him had changed.
His first instinct was to put his hand in his arms and light the oil lamp, but Magellan's unmistakable memory told him that the "sun" had been lit long ago and had never been extinguished.
The sound of chisels striking on stones was audible, and Magellan looked around and found himself in a quarry, surrounded by stonemasons holding chisels on huge marble blocks, and the air was choking with stone dust.
"Hello, stranger. ”
The voice of a middle-aged man pulled Magellan out of his shock, and he turned to see a stonemason at work beside him.
"It's rare for anyone other than a stonemason to come here, and you're probably lost. ”
He said to himself, with a determined face.
"Yes......" Magellan looked at the stonemason's clothes, thinking that he might be outside the ancient city of Theros Athens, or somewhere in the late part of the ancient Loren Empire.
It's so bizarre that it's almost like.
"Where is this?"
A narrow smile appeared on the stonemason's face: "This is the southern quarry. Mount of Olives south of the Holy City, the province of Judea, or rather, the Great Loren Empire, you are still on the ground, and Augustus the Great is not dead, haha!"
At the end, the stonemason laughed exaggeratedly.
Strangely, Magellan did not find this stonemason's character to joke about it.
"I came from a place more than a thousand years later, far east of the Holy City, in the desert, when there was no Loren Empire. ”
"You're a clever fellow, my friend," the stonemason laughed, "it's hot, let's go and drink some water in our shack." ”
The stonemason spoke a language that Magellan did not know, but strangely enough, he understood exactly what it meant.
The less mature stonemason, who seemed to be the boss of the quarry, shouted "Call it a day" and all the stonemasons lowered their chisels.
"The Governor's garden didn't use much marble and we had time to rest. The stonemason led Magellan through the huge marble blocks placed on the ground and walked down the hill, "as long as the elders don't come to make trouble." ”
"Elder?"
"Well, the elder of our clan," the stonemason nimbly flipped over a boulder, "my name is Science, how about you?"
"Magellan......"
"You don't look good?"
"It's a bit of a hassle. ”
"Do you want my help?"
"Now it seems to be ......"
"Don't be embarrassed, we are the Masons Guild of the Holy City, helping people without asking for anything in return. ”
"Thank you......"
Magellan had a very complicated mind, he never thought that such a thing would happen.
