Chapter 305: The Sad End
On a moonlit night, the sea of trees, lifeless turbidity floats in the sky above the mountains and forests, and the originally emerald green and verdant ocean seems to be polluted at the moment, showing traces of withering. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
"How could it be...... In this way," Sharo looked at the scene in front of her, and froze, only to feel as if a basin of cold water had been splashed from head to toe, freezing her old bones and gurgling, and she only felt exhausted, "It's just, and left for a while." ”
In front of the eyes of the two of them, where the sacred tree that originally stood at the top of the sky, a single shadow of the tree disappeared, as if it had been erased by some force in the corner of this heaven and earth, leaving only a huge hole, and there was a deep black underneath, bottomless, the sacred tree seemed to be uprooted, but who could uproot such a huge tree? The only way to hold the trunk of the sacred tree was the hand of the giant.
And around the sacred tree, countless dead branches and leaves, the scene of decay and decay spread around, until the distant horizon, are all dead trees with dead faces, withered leaves fall on the ground, buried in the soil, the closer to the sacred tree, the more cruel the scene, Seth stepped on a withered yellow fallen leaf, just a light toe just touched, not even a sound, the leaves directly turned into powder.
"This place is dying. Seth looked at the messy landscape.
"Originally, we relied on the Divine Tree to obtain the vitality beyond ordinary beings, but with the passage of time, everything in this mountain forest has been inseparable from the Divine Tree, especially the land under our feet, which can even be regarded as assimilated into one with the Divine Tree, and the Divine Tree is like the heart of this land," Sharo sighed heavily, pacing to the huge tree pit, at this moment this old man really looks like an ordinary old man, no, it seems to be more old and haggard than ordinary old people, the vitality that should have appeared in the young man, at this time, is no longer attached to this old man, "But the heart of this land is gone." ”
"Has everything that depends on this tree for its survival assimilated to the tree, and is that including the Divine Wolf?" asked Seth.
"Divine Wolf ......," Sharo repeated softly, "I always feel that someone has snatched something from their memories, is this the reason?" said Sharo, "For the creatures that can no longer survive without the Divine Tree, without the dependence of the Divine Tree, they will only go to death, but for the miraculous special species of the Divine Wolf, perhaps, there will be other unknown phenomena." ”
"Like ......," Seth looked up at the sky.
"Existence disappears from this world along with life. Sharo looked down at the crater, and she crouched down and picked up a handful of dirt, which was terrible, like a pile of dead ashes.
"It's a real headache. Seth remembered the scene where Suzu fell in front of him, and her last look and words, and he felt that his head was so messy, and the chaos made him impatient and helpless.
"Even if it is done to this extent, how can I spend the rest of my time comfortably with the old woman," Sharo sighed, watching the mud and sand slip through his fingers, "What a group of worrying people, poor children." ”
"What do you know?"
"God knows. Sharo replied perfunctorily, the last pinch of mud and sand grinding lightly on her fingertips, and she felt the residual magic that was stained in it, a wave that she was familiar with and could not be more familiar.

After breaking free from the vertigo and the blinding white light, Born held the arm containing the fragments of the apocalypse tightly in his arms, and his body fell to the ground, the surrounding illusion cold and damp, completely dominated by darkness, as if he was under the ground without light.
Bohn propped up his weakened body, holding on to the wall with one hand, and stuffing his other arm into his clothes, he leaned against the wall and walked slowly, the air had a completely different magical fluctuation than he usually felt, if in ordinary nature, all kinds of elements were included, as if he was in a colorful garden, then at this time, Bohn felt that although he was in the dark, he seemed to be standing in the smoke of the flames.
But fortunately, it's just the fluctuation of the magic power of the outside world, and the body can gradually adapt.
"This magic that makes people feel that the mouth is filled with sweet and bitter tastes, and if you don't pay attention, your nostrils are also full," Bohn covered his mouth and nose with his sleeves, and licked his lips lightly, and the sweet feeling of the tip of his tongue bouncing, as if it could ignite a flame, giving people the illusion of burning, "It's really a magic that makes people feel oppressive and uneasy, like a terrible monster hiding somewhere." ”
If Born were to describe what kind of impression he had of the so-called monster in his mind for a moment, the picture would probably be that in the raging flames, the blood flowed like fuel, and the flames danced on the blood, and the black shadow dancing his limbs stepped across the flames and stepped on the water surface of the blood pool, his eyes with the most dazzling blood light, as if condensed thousands of drops of blood let the fire reflect to the fullest.
But now, he can still only see darkness, darkness, or darkness in front of him, no one to show him the way, he thought it was a reunion with his former family, but he felt lonely and lonely at the moment, as if the scene of the warm home waiting for him to push the door in the impression was just an empty fantasy after all.
"Sole, where is everyone, I'm back, is anyone here?" Born called out to the dark end, hearing his own voice echo into the distance, "Where is this? Is anyone nearby?"
He shouted loudly, hoping that a familiar voice would answer him, no matter who it was.
"Where's the man," said someone at last, but in a voice that was extremely unfamiliar to Bohn, "Mr. Bohn Cockwaid, right?"
Vaughn tried to stare ahead, but in the darkness, he could only vaguely see the silhouette of a thin rickety, coupled with the other party's aging voice, it should be an old man.
"Who are you?" Born frowned, and in the unknown darkness, there was a person around him who he had never been in contact with, which made him nervous, "Where is this?"
"This is the human realm, and it is Mr. Sora's stronghold in the human realm, and I will be responsible for guiding you in terms of the understanding of this stronghold," the man said, with an old voice, with cunning and incomprehensible tones, "My name is Novaz, my helper, Mr. Kura asked me to wait for you here." ”
"Why is it you, a man I don't know," Bohn thought it was a little ridiculous, he wanted a family-like reunion, not an old man he had never met to have a mysterious reception with him, and he was not a guest, was the old man a butler sent by the master's house?" "Where are the others? Take me to them." ”
"The book of Revelation has brought. The old man did not do so, and first inquired about the whereabouts of the book of Revelation.
"Brought, but it's not for you, show me the way. Born spoke cautiously.
"It's not your turn to decide," the old man chuckled lowly, with an eerie laugh and some kind of indescribable mockery, "this may disappoint you, Mr. Sora is not here at the moment, and he has some things to deal with." The old man said.
"Then we'll see you later, take me to meet the others first," Born was a little impatient, in this completely unfamiliar and oppressive place, every moment he wanted to see those haunting faces at once, the strange attitude of the old man made him feel bad, "What are you still rubbing?" ”
"Your look down on people also makes me feel bad, before I don't know the identity of the other party, is this really good, but forget it, your anxious mood can be understood, it's just ......" said the old man, "I have already said it once, you will be disappointed." ”
"What the hell are you trying to say?"
"There is no one left who can wait for you, except for Mr. Sora, at least here. ”
Bohn suddenly felt that his brain was empty, and then it was as if he had been hit with a stone, his brain was buzzing, he felt that his body was a little weak, his limbs had lost his strength to support, and his body was about to collapse because he couldn't hold it anymore, he held on to the wall, gave himself a few seconds to calm down, and told himself that he was just thinking too much, and it was all caused by the tension imposed on him by the environment.
"I know that everyone is involved in the plan to invade the Silent Court, but before I came, I saw that the giant array mentioned in the plan was broken, and they should also have the space transfer circle set up, didn't any of them come back?"
"I don't know," said the old man without a hint of emotion, "it is also possible that you have died in the world over there, and I hope you had better prepare for the worst." ”
"You!" Born raised his head sharply, and shouted out a heaping of anger, the old man's words made him angry, the people he had always wanted to see, the people he wanted to see the most, between the lines of the old man's words, so easy and casual were defined as death, he couldn't bear it.
But the old man was not afraid at all, and Born saw the old man's body standing motionless, not like a human being, but like a cold sculpture.
"Who the hell are you?"
"Novaz, my name, as I already said, is your helper, and many of the research conducted in the human world is basically under my control, without me, your plan would not have gone on so quickly. ”
Novoz, Novoz ...... Born silently recited the name that displeased him, and in a trance felt as if he had heard it somewhere, in his memory a long time ago.
Born felt his confusion tangled in sackcloth, and he sat down on the ground, suddenly remembering what Daus had said to himself before parting.
I don't want to end up with that empty kid and have to go to the ideal place that everyone yearns for by himself......
What, this sentence is trying to say, everyone can't go to the end, so let me replace everyone and shorten the last person who accompanies him, but even so, aren't you better than me, Daus, Urfa, are much better than me......
Born thumped the wall in hatred.
"Why is this happening," he whispered, "it's like we're all leaving early, and we're not, we're almost there, aren't we?" ”
Born felt a little cold in his heart, the worst and most desperate result, waiting for his return, it was really an empty room, there was no family in it, there was no warm light, there was no warm scene expected, except for loneliness and loneliness.
"Let's go, the plan can't be stopped, isn't it, it's already in the end. The old man said to himself, leaving Born with a back.
Born silently watched the vague figure sway, not saying a word.
――――――――――
Moonlit Night, some nameless place.
The ground around him was covered in silvery white due to the heavy snowfall, and the air was cold and dry, and a man stood in the middle of the icy snow.
The bodies of several people lay on the ground in turn, swinging out in front of him.
"Can you see it in that world, it's snowing again in this place, and it's as cold as it was at that time," the man said softly, full of tenderness and worry, and with a sad cry, "The world has not changed, and from then to now, it will still rain this kind of snowflakes that make people despair." ”
He crouched down and reached out to touch the face of the first man, whose face was already cold and stiff, and then he stroked everyone's cheeks in turn, and on the face of the last man, his hand refused to leave, and his eyes overflowed with tears.
Annemes, Wipp White, Daurius, Dashos, and Urfa. It was as if they were asleep, quiet, and they would never wake up again.
Their bodies were already icy, so cold that the man's palms were cold, cold to the bones, his heart was about to freeze, and his heart ached.
"Why, why do you have to die," the man suddenly knelt down in the snow and lay on the ground sadly, "I don't understand it anymore, obviously we agreed to go to that ideal world together, but if you don't follow you, then what's the point of me going alone, even if it's really endlessly beautiful there, and being alone is the difference between being in such a hellish place." ”
Like a child venting his emotions, he slammed the ground hard, splashing snowflakes half a meter high every time, cracking the skin of the beaten hands and making the ground red with blood.
"Let's go... Go on... The extremely weak voice suddenly sounded, and the man jerked his head up, as if he had seen a miracle, and he stumbled over, and in excitement he didn't wait to get up, and rushed to the side of the owner of the sound while lying on his stomach on the snow.
"Daus, Daus, are you still alive, it's great that you're still alive. The man picked up Daus's body and opened his mouth excitedly, panting heavily, his eyes red.
"Already... There's no going back... If you... If you finally give up... So everyone's sacrifice... There is no point...", Daus's voice was small, he was already dying, "to put our apocalypse fragments... Take... The plan worked..."
"Of course I know this kind of thing, how can I let you give so much in vain, even if you still have nothing in the end, I will not give up at the last moment, you are enough to be the reason for me to go to the end," the man whimpered, trying to show himself to be determined, "Dauris, you hold on a little longer, I will find a way to save you." ”
"I'm really... In the end... Can't stand their own leader... He's a crybaby, too..."Daus smiled bitterly, but his face was stiff and he couldn't see any obvious expression, "By the way, VIP, VIP, they're still alive." ”
The man was stunned for a moment, he forcibly stopped himself from looking back at the sleeping Wiepwhite and Annemes beside him, and nodded at Daus.
"Really... Great..."Daus said with a smile, "please help me tell you... I might be no-showing... There's no way to live to meet them anymore... Let them take my share... Try to live...."
"Well, I'll tell you about it, so don't talk, I'll take you to someone first, and I'll find a way to get you. Unable to sit still, he immediately had to carry Daus's body.
"Don't waste your efforts... Let me... Let me rest for a while..."Daus's voice was so small that he could barely hear it, and Sora could only put his ear to his mouth, "and finally again... See the old man... I don't hate him very much... And also... Your brother... He always seemed to want to... Let's have a good chat with you... Remember to listen to him...."
Sora frowned, his face was ugly, he was patiently grief, nodding vigorously, in order to let Daus see, he didn't know if Daus could still see the situation in front of him now.
"Heh... I'm sorry... Empty ......" Daus stopped talking.
The man silently maintained the posture of holding Daus's body, letting the cold wind blow, and the snowflakes melted into water to wet his trouser legs, cold his own skin.
Heaven and earth are lonely and cold.
Finally, as if to confirm that Daus really could never wake up again, he put Daus's body back on the ground, and his gaze swept over the peaceful cheeks of several people in turn.
"You guys, you should live in a slightly more peaceful world now, I will put your body in a place that no one knows, that is only a place that belongs to our memories, so sleep with confidence, you have worked hard enough, it's time to rest, let me finish the final work," the man lowered his head and said, "Goodbye, my family, we are in that world, goodbye, in that ideal world." ”
He suddenly raised his head and roared loudly at the sky, as if he wanted to roar out all his grief and anger, turning it into thunder that could pierce the sky, anger and unwillingness seemed to turn into flames and set the world on fire, and grief and reluctance seemed to turn into a flood to drown the world.
The man suddenly began to cry again, crying so sadly, sad than the snow on the ground, sad, as if even the world was dark.
