Chapter 70: The Chanter of Jeda
It was nearly noon, and the Third Flame City was quiet, and the residents all went back to their homes to eat lunch while avoiding the scorching midday sun, and only a few tourists were still taking every minute to explore the city, so there were no pedestrians in the alleys at this time. The floating island did not cruise around during this time, and when you looked up, you could see the clear blue sky, dazzling lights shining directly on the buildings and ground in the city center, and the ground paved with stone slabs was a little hot, and the city seemed to have fallen into a deep sleep, only the faint sound of insects still echoed around. Of course, in addition to the sound of insects, there is also melodious music, and the sound of the flarenqin is not loud, and the sound of the insects drifts in all directions, like an afternoon daydream.
Along the way to the sound, the music heard in the ears is getting closer and closer, and the melody of the music has become more and more gentle, and the performer has not yet been seen, but the girls can already paint an image in their minds, under the bright sun, the player hides in the shadows cast by the wall, leaning against the green wall of the alley with an indifferent face, and the slender fingers leisurely plucking the strings of the flaren as thin as a hair, making people feel a lazy feeling rising from the heart when they see it.
Pannis curled the corners of his mouth to reveal a smile, and said softly: "You can catch it at this distance, and sure enough, it's him, the strongest legend in the Elven Forest, a priest who is only one step away from a demigod, a chant who has set foot in the gods, a bard, a painter, a mage, a forest ranger, and a person who can have a master level in every field, and he is the only one who has been in every field over the years." I'm right, Moore. ”
"Ding Ding Dong", the melody of the flarenqin changes. From the original melodious and soothing to cheerful, it seems that the owner of the piano is using music to express a warm welcome to the arrival of the six people. Pannisy sneered, shook his head, and said, "This guy always likes this, mysterious and secretive, and looks like a standard clergyman. ”
"Hey. A mace was already hanging over Pannis's head and said, "When the city of innocence was separated, I didn't expect that I would meet you again so soon, let alone that when we met again, you would have all been promoted to the legendary rank, which is really an amazing promotion speed." Moreover, a few months ago, I went to the land of the sea, and heard about your deeds from High Priest Doris, and I have to say that in the face of the temptation of the evil gods, you can hold on to the defense of your hearts and finally let his plot to return to the world finally come to an end, and this firm belief really admirs me. ”
"Back to the world" mentioned everything that happened in the land of the sea half a year ago, Catherine didn't care to respond to Moore's praise, and asked in surprise: "Isn't Timos already falling, how can he return to the world?"
"Miss Catherine, don't you know" Moore asked more surprised than Catherine, "If you don't know the conspiracy behind this matter, then why would you refuse the temptation of the artifact?"
"I don't know what the conspiracy is. Catherine said blankly, "But I know that it is not right to do this, and that my convictions do not allow me to do so, so I must refuse its temptation." ”
"I see, sure enough, it's the insistence that Nelly-sama's followers should have. Moore saluted Catherine again solemnly and said solemnly: "I'm really sorry, I underestimated your will and faith, and I hope you can accept my apology." ”
"It's nothing. Catherine asked, "But I'm curious what the conspiracy you just spoke of was." ”
In fact, Timos is a jealous and cautious god, and everything he does will reserve a way out for himself, and with his character, he will never fall by himself, but leave behind an artifact that will eventually achieve the path of others to godhood. Moore explained, "High Priest Doris told me that after studying the artifact's fragments, she found that the Nightmare Spirit Horn was actually a retreat left by Timos, and if someone accepted the artifact and used it, Timos would gradually recover from the user, and finally come into the world in a complete divine body, becoming the only god who could enter the mortal world." ”
"I see, thank you for telling me such an important thing. Catherine felt a little fear in her heart, she had been shaken more than once at the moment of holding the Nightmare Spirit, but in the end she had destroyed the artifact, and the Knight Maiden finally knew that if she had not resisted the temptation at that time, perhaps it would no longer be herself who existed in her body now.
"Alright, don't talk about this kind of thing. In fact, Pannis had already guessed Timos's conspiracy afterwards, but he was worried that Catherine would not say it directly, so he said dissatisfiedly: "Aren't you supposed to be in the Elven Court now, why did you come here, it seems that you are still waiting for us deliberately." ”
"I wasn't here, but I was nearby. Moore replied, "As for my purpose, what is the image of the elf in your eyes?"
