Chapter 357: The King's Memory
Dawn placed her hand on the metal box, and the inky lines from the scroll began to attach to the metal box. Under the guidance of Bai Ze, the soul of Dawn passed through a layer of cold barrier and entered a dark world. It was a human face with a pale golden glow, and it looked like the Eric that Dawn had seen in the mural. According to Bai Ze, the elementalization of this body that has been completed, relying on the demonic sealing effect of the box and the replenishment of light elements from the outside world, will always exist.
Chenxi finally understood why Bai Ze repeatedly emphasized not to open the box, a divine soul with a body and a remnant soul without a body to rely on, the strength is very different.
Here, as Bai Ze described, although he could feel the abundant light element, he was tightly bound by the magic circle originating from the box, and Dawn couldn't even mobilize it. Just when he didn't know what to do, King Eric's eyes snapped open, and he stared straight into the morning light. A vortex of souls appeared in the box, and Dawn was swept into it, entering King Eric's mind.
The sun, the grass, the sea breeze, the dilapidated wooden house, Dawn is like an alien spectator, looking at little Eric who is being reprimanded by his mother. Only then did he realize that this was a memory that belonged to King Eric.
......
"Eric, how many times have I warned you, our tribe has just migrated to this land without snow and ice. All this is a gift from the great sage Lord Aaronwen, the surrounding environment is not familiar to us, you wander around like this every day, it will cause trouble for everyone......" An extremely strong woman crossed her waist, and she was unable to raise her head from the future king in front of her.
"Mom, I've just heard that there is a kingdom of giants in the north......" Aaron Wen argued.
"That's something the tribal adults should consider, the Great Sage has sent his goblin apprentice to the Giant Realm to negotiate the terms, and this land is now ours. "Women mention Aaron's name with deep adoration.
"But we have to help those elves transport weapons for giants for free every year, and Dad hasn't been home for months!" Eric grumbled dissatisfiedly.
"It's all worth it compared to the present life!" said the fat woman, very seriously, "all right, it's getting late, hurry up and send these winter coats to your father." The cold season is coming, and hopefully the winters here won't be as cold as in our hometown!"
Eric said goodbye to his mother, carrying a thick bundle of winter clothes on his back, and walked towards the royal city of Gangtua. After all, he is still a child, and he is still a little excited to be able to enter the city.
Dawn, as a bystander, couldn't understand why Eric was so impressed by such a bland memory, but he quickly got an answer.
Eric trotted down the newly built dirt road, and his father once praised him as a natural hunter with the most dexterity. The journey was not heavy for him, and he could see people coming and going from time to time along the way. I heard that there are no human tribes in this land, and they are the only human tribe.
"Have you heard that the giants of the north like to eat human flesh...... Convoy ...... Heavy casualties!" Several passers-by commented that drew Eric's attention.
"What were you talking about, uncles?" said Eric, nervously.
"Little brother, this is ......," one of the two travelers saw the thick fur winter coat Eric was carrying behind him.
"My father has been sent to join the convoy, and winter is coming, so I'm going to send some winter clothes!" replied Eric, observing their faces as he watched their faces, and his heart couldn't help but feel cold.
"Convoy ...... Little brother, I advise you to be mentally prepared as soon as possible!" said a middle-aged man with a vicissitudes of life, "When the convoy was transporting weapons a while ago, it happened to be in time for the Fermore wine banquet, a group of drunken giants...... Ate a lot of people in the convoy!"
"Alas, what a sin, it is said that there are no bones left, and they were directly chewed raw. In the past, when I was in the ice field, although the days were harder, there were no monsters around. Now that I'm neighbors with this kind of thing, I always feel that Lord Arunwyn is bringing us here, and it's a curse rather than a blessing!" the other couldn't help but complain.
"Shh......h If the guards hear you criticize the Great Sage, we will be miserable!" the elder hurriedly stopped.
Eric had no intention of listening to them anymore, so he threw his winter coat on the ground and ran towards the city of Gangtua as fast as he could. The convoy was located in the middle of the city, and he hoped that his worries would be unwarranted, and that his father would still greet him as before......
Dawn shook her head, since this memory was so important to Eric, it was clear that it didn't end well. He saw the difficult survival situation of the ancient human race from the side, in that era when monsters were raging, human beings really struggled to survive at the bottom of the food chain like two-legged sheep. The Fabergs are just a microcosm, and perhaps they are still not the most miserable......
The screen transitions, and when I see Eric again, the boy is already covered in mud at this time. The running did not make him out of breath, and the tears on his face mixed with dust made him extremely desolate at this time. The convoy's station was deserted, and many familiar faces from the past were never seen again. Everyone around the garrison was silent, and the patrolling soldiers looked at their people with scrutiny as if they were guarding against the enemy.
"No, I'm going to ask that bastard Aaronwen for clarification!" Young Eric didn't understand the horror of power at this time, he just wanted to ask for an explanation for his father.
......
The frame of the great sage slowly walked on the streets that used to be lively, and the tragedy of the transport team made everyone panic, and the whole city smelled of wind and rain.
"Ignorant fools, if you want to occupy the fertile land, how can you not pay the price!" Aaron Wen looked at the surrounding streets with disdain, thinking silently.
"Catch the Assassin...... Grab the kid ......" The frame suddenly became chaotic, and Aaron saw a thin young man in ragged clothes and dust, very dexterous in his own guard. The body was as flexible as a swimming fish, and his heart couldn't help but light up.
Eric was full of resentment, and when he encountered Aaronwen's frame, he rushed forward without thinking. He wanted to question the adult sitting in the car what to do with the murderous giants. Years of experience in hunting in the wild had given him great dexterity, and the heavily armored guards who had been heavily armored in order to show their majesty had apparently not expected anyone to storm the convoy in the city, and they were immediately turned upside down by this hairy boy. Eric was caught as he approached the frame, and several vines bound his limbs, hanging him upside down in the air. Aaron glanced at Elk meaningfully, then closed the curtains.
"Bring him to my palace intact!" he said coldly.
