Chapter 6: The Song of the Sea

"The siren's song almost didn't make me want to come back for dinner. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info "McKay touched his head with palpitations.

"Yes, as soon as you come out of this tree, you can hear that song again. Klaus stood up and looked down at the ruined city from above, "What was this place like?"

"It's also the first time I've ever known that elves have lived in our mess, and they've seen each other for a long time. And the Sea Clan, the Sea Tribe's habitat in the city?" Wood smiled and gave Lucy a piece of chicken.

Children eat more and grow their bodies.

"Why did the city leave its homeland, did you say it was forced or for some reason? "Clear-headed, Cessna asked the most important question.

Everyone fell silent, because they were really confused when they saw the tragic scene in front of them and this strange city.

"I won't mention it, but I don't know if you have noticed, I haven't seen a single book yet. Wood put down the lunch box with a serious expression, "If the legends on the other side of the mechanical world are true, they did find some books from here." Then this is our book city, so that's a very strange point. ”

As the words fell, some of the people looked down in thought, and some raised their heads to look at the fog in the distance. The adventurers fell silent again.

"I have two guesses," Wood began to ask himself, "one is that this city was forced to leave, such as by some force, or some god, to leave the continent and come to this city. The reason for this is the books mentioned in the second question.

The gods or the forces knew what the books were secret, and they took them all, leaving only some useless ones to be picked up by the people here.

If this is mostly true, then the black plague we see is due to those bastards.

This idea seems reasonable, but I have a second, crazier idea. ”

Wood was silent for a long time, looking like he was organizing the language.

"This is Angel City, if the whale wasn't lying to us. Based on the name, I can put together a seemingly crazy timeline.

First of all, I would like to introduce to some scumbags that the book city existed in our homes before the catastrophe, even tens of thousands of years ago, maybe longer, so long that no words appeared.

Do you remember the information we gathered in Phase 4, especially the mural? You must remember that the mural is about the Second Race War, or the Punishment of the Gods...... War on the gods?

Angel is mentioned in the mural, but based on the time, and the Chosen Daughter that Fay said, we can probably infer that this second war was the time of the great disaster in the family.

Here's where the fun part is, we see the name Angel as a person, including the one who should have been on my chest all the time. ”

Wood took out the Medal of Valor, where he kissed the demon, and slowly put it on.

"We all know a little bit about the second war, but what about the first time? There must have been a first time before there was a second one.

Sorry, I don't think so. Because of Charlotte, she saw Her Royal Highness Princess Angel smiling at her.

Listen carefully next, because it's important.

I think what Charlotte saw was not from the Second Race War, but from the first time, because the angel she saw was completely different from the angelic leader I saw in the mural!

And Princess Angel should be dead.

If you think about the three murals, one is an incomprehensible man fleeing death, the second is what we know as the Angelic Civil War, and the third is ......

It's a princess who was surrounded and stabbed to death!

If Charlotte's memory is correct, based on that hair and my intuition, we can reunite the two princesses first!"

Everyone was sluggish from thinking, and Wood took a sip of tea to give his companion time to react.

When he first started to connect the threads with some hypothesis, he almost wanted to slap himself in the face, because it was crazy.

But as he continued to speculate, especially after entering the city, he became more and more convinced of these crazy ideas.

"If this is true, then Angel existed in the continent of Klastina tens of millions of years ago, and at that time her pupils reflected the world that was collapsing.

Like our catastrophic world, the world is collapsing.

Hypothesis: Before our history came along, in that time when no one knew about it, they had already experienced everything we are going through now.

I don't know, but I have the feeling that Angel may have been an adventurer, just like us. ”

He lowered his head, looked at the medal on his chest, and was silent for a long time before speaking again.

The Angel was holding the Apocalypse Stone in her arms, and she slowly walked towards the angel. I think the era of adventurers was over by then, and the first race war was beginning to break out.

And the Apocalypse Stele, I think it's just Angel's hand. She had long foreseen that if she was defeated, then the tragedy would repeat itself someday in the future.

I can't really tell, but Angel may have reached the end of this adventurer's journey and broken free from the shackles.

What awaits us at the end of the adventurer, at the end of the so-called tenth stage?

Was this city founded before the defeat, or after the defeat? ”

Wood walked to the edge of the air, leaned forward to let his ears out of the tree of life, and the siren's song immediately permeated his mind.

"Hypothesis: At the beginning of the second catastrophe, for what reason Angel reappeared in this city.

Perhaps the city had begun to be ravaged by the Black Plague, or perhaps some force wanted to destroy everything she had created.

In order to prevent the spread of the plague and lead to the destruction of humanity, or perhaps to protect the secret, Angel chose to make a time jump and move the book city here.

And left a lot of back, such as the elf we just met, such as the song I hear in my ears now. ”

Wood retracted his head, turned and swept everyone's eyes.

Angel...... Is she on the side of humanity, on our side?" Lucy tilted her head, she was probably the most comfortable of all now.

Small children only like to pay attention to superficial things.

Wood's smile was a little complicated, because he didn't know either.

But he genuinely hopes that Angel is a human or a friend of humanity, and that he will leave the truth they want here.

Otherwise, I am afraid that the era of adventurers for thousands of years is just a repetition of history.

"I hope the truth is the same as your first guess, because the second crazy idea is too brain-burning and fantastical. Jos sighed and smiled wryly to replenish his strength.

"Our world, our journey, the tree under our feet, is a fantasy. Wood laughed as he walked back to his companion with Lucy in his arms.

It was a long journey, but the eyes of his companions told him that they were ready.

......

"First of all, I would like to say good morning to you, and then I would like to ask you, if the dead bodies in this desert suddenly get up, will we fight or run?" asked Wood as he raised his hand and asked earnestly.

Klaus ran out and slapped Wood's funny hand, "You're the head of the regiment, we'll follow your reaction." ”

"Cheng, look at my eyes when the time comes. Wood took a deep breath and was the first to step out of the confines of the Tree of Life.

The desert was now blowing dust, and it was much more irritable than Wood had been when they first passed by. And the wind brought the sirens to sing, and they were in a trance for a moment.

Elizabeth kept waving the priest's staff, and she felt that if she made it home alive, she would have to protest to the damn gangsters.

Add a priest, please!

Maika summoned a large shadow rat to find his way, and after a moment he opened his eyes, then nodded to the group.

Wood breathed a sigh of relief, then bent his legs and rushed out like a missile.

Get out of the desert and into the city as soon as possible, and get to the Sea Clan habitat as quickly as possible, as they only have a minor priest.

It's terrible for a priest to be ineffective in battle.

The wind and dust were very heavy, but the adventurers still managed to get out of the desert by singing.

After entering the human settlement, everyone found a clean place, Sissi unfolded the home system, and everyone had a good night's rest.

Three days after leaving the Tree of Life, the people finally saw the great pond that had dried up. Actually, there is something wrong with the pond, because it is like a small sea.

No matter how they looked, they couldn't find the sirens, because after entering the place, the sirens stopped singing.

There are no big trees to look up to, and there are no spectacular buildings here, Wood thought for a moment and reached out to the pond.

Elizabeth watched nervously as the hand moved forward, she was ready for a holy light spell.

Bite.

The sound was crisp, and at the same time the void rippled, if the ripples of water generally spread from this hand.

When the ripples subsided, Wood slowly withdrew his hand, and as he rippled again, he took out his handkerchief and wiped his hand.

Then, the handkerchief got wet.

"The invisible sea?" asked Elizabeth.

Wood nodded, then shook his head again, confusingly.

"If it's seawater, it's only going to be wet, but look at my hands. He lit a flame with his other hand, illuminating the withdrawn hand.

"Ahh

"Girl, please turn back, Klaus prepares fire magic, Catherine if she is not afraid, prepare with her. ”

Wood's whole body burned with fiery red flames, and then the magic array controlled by the eldest lady unfolded in his chest, and smashed directly into the invisible sea.

Klaus and Catherine's magic came out at the same time, and for a moment the fire lit up the dark place, and the flames also illuminated the seemingly nothingness of the pit.

Elizabeth didn't look back, her expression slowly turned frightened, she quickly reached out to cover her mouth, and then kept shaking her head.

Countless dead sea tribes were hidden beneath the surface of the sea, and maggots crawled on them, extremely disgusting......

(I don't write too much, because it's disgusting.) )

The flames evaporated the transparent seawater and turned into a sea of fire.

The adventurer's pupils reflected the flames, and the anger in his heart grew stronger. Wood now desperately wants to find out who is behind the scenes, and then kill him.

There's no room for maneuver, just kill.

They had created killings, but when they saw this scene that was like a human tragedy, they knew that most of these sea tribes committed suicide because they couldn't stand the insects crawling over their bodies...... Inhuman torture.

As if sensing the mood of the adventurers, the flames burned more and more, and even the dark clouds in the sky burned red.

But the vitality of those insects was extremely strong, and most of them survived the flames, and gathered together, constantly devouring their companions to become stronger, and the last disgusting black worm roared in the sea of fire.

"Elizabeth lifted the psychic shelter and gave me all the offensive divine spells. Catherine, break through this darkness for me. Wood looked up coldly, pointing to the sky.

"Roger!" the two women replied in unison, and then began to prepare their spells.

Wood spread his wings and flew into the air, and the black gas detected the flying creature and began to pour towards him.

Wood didn't care about the invading dead air, anyway, Big Black has been boring lately, so it's okay to let it eat a full meal. Opening his scarlet eyes, he flapped his wings and continued to fly upward.

Black Qi didn't expect that Wood not only didn't run away, but rushed towards them. As the force of death, they are enraged!

They want to devour this human demon and drag it into the shackles of eternal life!

Maybe no one else heard, but Wood could hear ah, sobbing in the dark.

Elves use the power of nature to forge bodies that will never dissipate, and souls can survive for thousands of years by putting their souls into them.

And the elves have a long lifespan.

And what about the sirens, how have they survived to this day, and are still singing for them?

When he saw those dead bodies, his heart was cold, and then he thought of an idea that he had always denied.

His eyes were full of darkness, and the black gas turned into countless hideous faces that wanted to devour him, but he was still determined to move on.

His body was drenched in blood, it didn't matter, he just wanted to find that sad voice now.

It didn't matter if his body was starting to turn black, he had now broken out of the black clouds.

There is a deep blue sea under the blue sky, and the water is constantly lapping against the reef, which is somewhat pleasant.

And in the middle of this sea, there is a creature that destroys all beauty. She was covered in pus, and several bugs crawled on her, biting her from time to time.

Trembling, she picked up a piece of carrion and placed it on the wound. Carrion became her body.

The originally beautiful face was puffy like a big balloon at this time, and looking at the bare top of her head, no one could imagine that she had beautiful hair.

"Hello. She trembled and made a sound, as if she was afraid to be seen.

"If it's your first time seeing the Sirens, then I'm sorry to let you see me so disgusting. ”

"No, it's us who should be sorry. Wood clenched his fist several times and released it several times, and finally slowly flew towards the sea of sky with a sad expression. "I'm really sorry we're late. ”

The siren looked at where the sound came from, she wanted to see Wood's face, but she lost her eyes on the first day. "No sorry, thank you for coming, thank you very much. ”

Wood landed on a reef in the center of the ocean and stood next to his stenching body.

"You're here?" said the emotionally complicated siren retracted his head and lowered his head. "Actually, you don't have to come, I didn't plan to let you see me in the first place, but you're too smart. ”

"Is it still possible? I want to save you. Wood sat on the reef and let the water lap against him.

"Thanks, but it's not possible. By the time my companions cut off their bodies and put them on the reef and raised the ocean, I was dead. The siren's voice was still pleasant, but too sad.

Wood reached out to touch the body, but she dodged it.

"Don't do that. ”

"Sorry, I just ......"

"I know that when I was younger, there was always a flood of compassion, and I did a lot of stupid things because of compassion. There was some genuine joy in his voice.

"Something isn't right. Wood shook his head. "My feelings for you are not just sympathy, I think it is more respect. This is a heartfelt respect for a watchman who has been sticking to it for thousands of years. Thank you that she has gone through so much and is still waiting for us. ”

The siren still had his head down, but he was probably laughing, and Wood could feel it.

"So as a watchman, can I make a request to you?

"Naturally, it's no problem, a few are fine. ”

"Not a few. The siren shook his head, "I just want to sing a song of the sea to my guests, maybe a little rusty, but I hope you enjoy it." ”

Wood didn't reply, just watched silently as the sirens opened their mouths and sang in their ears.

The song is like the sea, sometimes quiet and makes people want to take a nap, sometimes the storm makes people overwhelmed, and he sees the sea he doesn't know with the song.

At the same time, the ugly body disappeared from his eyes, and the seductive siren sat on the reef, singing merrily.

The long sea-blue hair in the sun is very eye-catching. Wood reached out, but unfortunately grabbed it.

The song should come to an end, with the sirens playfully flapping their wings while flapping the fish's tail and slowly flying towards the sun.

Her body was bathed in sunlight and finally completely covered in light.

She kept laughing.

The song of the sea was over, and Wood hung his head in grief and covered his head with his hands.

Goodbye, brave watchman.

"It's time to go back, the death is spreading very badly, and if you don't get treated by the priest, I'm afraid it will be dangerous. The eldest lady made a difficult sound, and she also knew that it was not good behavior to disturb at this time.

"Hmm. ”

Wood turned around and picked up the pearl in the sun, and flew out of the ocean.

An explosion was being heard below, and he hadn't noticed it until now, obsessed with the song of the ocean. Catherine solves the black gas, and he's falling.

Almost at the same moment, the ocean fell to the ground with him.

"It's beautiful. Lucy couldn't help but exclaim as she looked at the very different landscape.

"It's beautiful, and it's going to be even more beautiful. Wood smiled and propped himself up, and with that, he threw the pearl in his hand.

Instead of entering the sea, the pearl rushed straight to the waterfall, which had dried up. Then there was a flash of light, and the sea water that came out of nowhere gushed out again.

The sea water falls from the sky to form a waterfall, making the ocean spectacular and magical. The adventurers clapped their hands again, expressing their heartfelt shock and respect, and Lucy kept jumping with Sissi in her arms.

Children are even more excited than adults when they see these sights.

The sea splashed on Wood's face, carrying the characteristic smell of the sea. His eyes looked at everything in front of him gently, and vaguely, he seemed to hear the song of the sea again, and saw the beautiful siren again.

If there is still a chance to meet, can you tell me your name?
