Chapter 263: A New Discovery

After coming out of the noodle shop, Roland receives news from Sharon that he has made a new discovery in one of Archimedes' private houses, and asks him and Gray to hurry over to meet them.

On the way to Archimedes' private house, Gray seemed to be in good spirits along the way. And Roland didn't know why, he always felt that something was strange, but he couldn't tell what was wrong.

But because Roland's feeling only appeared after meeting Augustine, Roland felt that his strange feeling should have something to do with Augustine, right?

Thinking of this, for some reason Roland suddenly had a strange idea, and his mood suddenly became heavy, and he couldn't help but speed up his pace.

Gray saw Roland's pace quickening, and felt a little strange, so he chased after him: "Roland, what are you doing?" Why are you going this way? Noticeably faster on the trail? ”

Roland ignored him, but continued to speed up his pace. Gray kept chasing Roland like this. After about three or four minutes of walking, Gray finally felt a little impatient. Gray suddenly jumped in front of Roland and stopped him, and said, "What the hell do you want to do?" ”

Seeing that there was no one around, Roland asked straight to the point: "Do you know Augustine?" ”

Gray was slightly stunned when he heard this, and then smiled: "You said that Augustine just now? Acquaintance? Don't you know him too? ”

"I mean before," Roland said, glancing at Gray, knowing he wanted to dodge the question, continued to ask, "Did you know him before I met you?" ”

Gray's eyes showed a look of surprise, and he suddenly smiled after a while: "You, you know?" His expression was slightly embarrassed.

After receiving an affirmative answer, for some reason, Roland felt a nameless fire suddenly begin to swell in his heart. After that, he stopped talking to Gray and walked on his own.

But when Roland calmed down, he began to feel that his current self was very ridiculous and irrational.

In fact, he had already vaguely realized that Gray was not an ordinary human anymore, was he?

Roland had never been sure what Gray's true strength was. When it comes to simple things, Gray's ability is mediocre, but when it comes to tricky problems, Gray never misses!

All problems can be solved very easily when it comes to Gray, and it seems that Gray's ability will always match what he encounters! In addition, Roland has seen Gray's strange transformation ability more than once, and he has never seen Gray use a magic circle, which makes Roland always have doubts about Gray's background.

However, it wasn't until he met Dingenier and Roland began to learn about other races that he began to really doubt whether Gray was really a human. But what really made Roland sure that Gray was not an ordinary human was after Roland began to wonder if Gray and Augustin knew each other.

Roland was surprised by the fact that when Gray and Augustin first met, Gray dissuaded Augustin with his words. But now that I think about it, it must be because they were already familiar with each other at that time, right?

Roland didn't think that there would be any ordinary human who could be so relaxed when he first met the Demon Lord. And the way of communication between Gray and Augustin when they were in the noodle shop just now made Roland even more sure that the two of them had known each other for a long time. So Augustin's previous unkindness should be Gray, right?

If all this is true, then Gray's actual age should not be as young as he appears to be. It seems that Gray is also a ruthless character that should not be underestimated!

Thinking of this, a sense of powerlessness began to invade Roland's heart again. It's not because Gray is hiding something from him, but Roland suddenly feels that he is not suitable to stay with such a group of people. The others are all the best in this continent, with extraordinary abilities and secrets that Roland does not know. Roland felt so small and humble compared to them.

So, Roland and Gray were silent all the way to Archimedes' private house. Here, in addition to the two dragon knights, there is also the king's army, cleaning up the scene.

Sharon called Roland and Gray directly and took them to the basement of the private house.

In the basement, some unknown creatures are imprisoned.

The first time Roland saw the creatures, he felt familiar, as if he had seen something like them somewhere.

Sharon said, "I've carefully identified these creatures before, and they should have been magical creatures in the Forest of Merlin. However, their form seems to be a little different from ordinary magical creatures, as if they have mutated. I believe that this mutation is most likely due to the influence of soul crystals. If we can find out where these creatures come from, we might be able to find some clues related to soul crystals. ”

Gray thought for a moment, and suddenly said, "I seem to have seen such a creature in a place in Merlin's Forest with Roland before. Then he looked at Roland and said, "Do you remember the time when that giant beast broke the seal and escaped, and when we fell into the cave and found the exit, it seemed that we had seen such a creature in that dark forest?" ”

Through Gray's words, Roland also remembered: "It seems that there is such a thing. When we saw those creatures, we felt that there was something wrong with their physical and mental outlook. ”

"Behemoth...... Is it referring to the one of the seven sealing behemoths? It seems that there is a connection between the two......" Sharon's brow furrowed, and then she looked up at Roland and Gray, "Okay, you two should remember the way there, right?" We're going to go now and see what the hell is going on in that place you're talking about. ”

------------------------------

Surrounded by dense woods and babbling streams, it was obviously a good day, but Roland's head was a little dizzy.

Well, although he didn't want to admit it, Roland still had to admit it: he did seem to have lost his way.

Gray glared at Roland with a gloomy face, and kept chanting in his mouth: "It's all you, see how you lead the way?" When I came, I swore that I would find the way, so I said I couldn't be careless, look at you, and finally get lost......"

"Shut up! You didn't come out of here with me in the first place. Don't you also disknow the way like me? Are you embarrassed to say me? Roland said to Gray with some annoyance, only to feel that his brain was very annoyed and messy at this time.

Sharon frowned slightly, and seemed to be a little impatient, but she still suppressed her emotions and just asked in a low voice, "Do you recognize the way?" ”

Dingenier didn't speak, but he looked straight at Roland's side, as if waiting for an answer.

And Roland only wanted to avoid Dingenier's gaze as much as possible at the moment, and didn't want to have eye contact with him again.

Yes, there has been no reconciliation between Roland and Dingenier since the last showdown.

Roland didn't know if he was gambling with Dingenier, but he just didn't want to give in to his brother, who was much better than him in every way.

As for Dingenier's withdrawal from the Holy Court that he had said last time, Roland had already thought about it seriously. Roland felt that this indifferent organization seemed to be very different from what he had thought before, and there was nothing that could support his will to let Roland continue.

Roland felt that after finishing this mission, it was better to quit the Holy Court. In this way, Roland and Dingenier do not have to see each other again, but they can not see each other.

"Oh, Lord Sharon, this ...... Mainly because we got there last time after we fell into a pit in the outer forest, and now we have to go backwards to find it...... You see the trees here all look the same, I don't recognize them, huh? Gray explained with sincerity on his face, and it seemed really sincere.

"Well, let's just go the same way." Sharon said.
