Chapter 419: The Eighth Divine Seat
The party lasted in the storm until about twelve o'clock, and everyone went upstairs to rest, and according to Shulex's arrangement, the first person to be on duty was Ice Hitomi, who had received advanced training in the Holy Blue Banner and was the most suitable for the first round of guards.
"Ah~ have you all gone to sleep, it's so boring......" stared at the fire for nearly ten minutes, Bing Tong couldn't bear the loneliness, the rain outside kept falling, and a few lightning bolts were slashed from time to time, lighting up the corridor of the black hole for a moment and then returning to calm again.
The long two hours soon came to an end, and after inspecting all the bedrooms, Ice Hitomi waited for Rose, who took her place. Rose has heavy dark circles under her eyes and looks like she will fall asleep at any moment.
"Rose, please. If Yuexing doesn't come down to replace you, you can go up and call her. Bing Tong yawned and went upstairs slowly, usually cleaning up late at home, and sleeping at this time is also a common thing.
"Oh......"
An hour and a half later, Yuexing rubbed her eyes and walked down the stairs, the fire in the fireplace had not been extinguished, and three and a half hours of sleep was enough for her to hold on to the remaining two hours here.
"Rose, go back and rest...... Huh?"
To Moonstar's surprise, Rose didn't stay in the living room, and she couldn't see her after looking around. Yuexing's heart tightened, and when he was about to go upstairs to discuss with Xiu Leix, his eyes suddenly caught a glimpse of the villa door opening at some point.
"Did you go outside?"
It was raining heavily, and Yuexing was lying on the door frame and looking out, it was blurry under the rain curtain, and no one answered after trying to call Rose's name twice, yes, how could anyone hear the rain so loud.
There are some miscellaneous items piled up on the right side of the living room, and there seems to be a very worn raincoat in it, and there should be nothing wrong in the house, and it is more important to get Rose back for now.
Yuexing put on a raincoat and ran outside with the door covered, the raindrops hurt very much on his body, and his feet were muddy, and he would slip if he was not careful. Realizing this, Yuexing slowed down, and after walking for about five minutes or so, she suddenly stopped, and if she left the villa too far, she didn't know what would happen to herself.
"Rose!"
"Where the hell has this guy gone......" I became more and more nervous, and even regretted why I agreed to Lilicia to come here, "I can only go back first." ”
Back at the door of the villa, the door showed signs of being opened, and there were more mud footprints on the floor of the living room, judging by the size, probably Rose who had come back from outside.
"Rose?" "Rose?" Despite having a bottom in her heart, Yuexing still walked unusually carefully along the footprints, which led to the corridor on the other side of the kitchen, why didn't Rose go upstairs to sleep after she came back, and didn't continue to wait in the living room, but went to that kind of black rumbling place?
"Hey, Rose, answer me. "Moonstar stood at the edge of the darkness, his fingers were missing, the lighting system was old and broken, and the only thing left in the house was the fire in the fireplace.
"If Hoshihan is here...... Ah, no matter!"
Using things from the kitchen to make a simple torch, Yuexing plunged into the dark corridor, since before she was most afraid of the dark, this time it is the same, I don't know what is hidden in the dark, the visual range of a torch is very small, almost only illuminating a little distance in front of the feet, so there is no difference between entering in the dark.
The corridor was long, but from the outside, the house was quite large, like a villa that only the aristocracy could afford, and such a villa was usually reserved for only one person.
The size of the flame is very unstable, as if a wind is blowing from the front, constantly increasing the field of view at will.
"Don't come over ......"
Yuexing suddenly stopped in place, the voice in front of her was Rose's, yes, it was indeed her voice!
"Rose, what's the matter, what are you doing in a place like this alone?" Moonstar ignored Rose's words and continued to take two steps forward with a torch.
"Don't come here!"
Never heard Rose in such a tone, not a warning or an anger, but one that bordered on a request.
Rose ...... No, it's okay......" Yuexing didn't dare to continue walking, to be honest, it was already torture to keep her in the dark, and now her spirit was on the verge of collapse, but she didn't want to give up Rose here, something must have happened!
"Go back and protect everyone's ......"
There was a sound of footsteps in front of me, it was the sound of direct contact between the flesh and the ground, Rose was not wearing shoes, so whose footprints were the shoes she saw at the door of the villa?!
"Rose?!" Moonstar's hands began to tremble, it was enough to make her feel scared in the dark, since Rose left, some bad things kept coming to her mind, no matter what, she didn't have the courage to continue walking, and now she had to go back to Shulex and Ice Pupil for help.
Turning around in the dark is a more difficult thing, I don't know what I will see after turning around, it may still be dark, it may be something else, no matter what I see, the moon star can no longer bear it, the events of this night are enough for a person to experience real fear.
Yuexing tried to calm his nerves, closed his eyes, turned around and began to run forward, the corridor was a straight road, and he could open his eyes as long as he felt the fire in the living room.
"Whew-"
"Come out......" Yuexing wiped the sweat from his forehead, and then quickly ran to the second floor with the handrail of the stairs.
"Knock knock!"
In the dream, Shulex reluctantly opened her eyes, sat up from the bed and glanced at the window, the rain was still falling, and the noise was upsetting, and then she realized the knock at the door, stretched and walked to the door.
"Ah~ Why did it come to me so quickly, it's not dawn yet, is the time miscalculated...... It's coming~" Xiulex lazily unscrewed the doorknob, and Yuexing looked at herself with a wet and rapid pant, "Thank you for your hard work, ...... next"
"Oh no!" Moon Star finally spat out what he was about to say, and his brain, which was in fear and exhaustion, almost lost the ability to speak, but fortunately he caught his breath at the last moment.
Xiu Leix frowned, the hazy sleepiness dissipated instantly, Yuexing's appearance was not like a guard in front of the fireplace downstairs, the whole person's mental state was very poor, I don't know what I had experienced.
"What's the matter, say it slowly. Shulex walked up to Moon Star, caressed her back with her hand, and asked slowly.
"I don't know, Rose, she ......"
"Rose, what's wrong with her?" said Shulex, who was nervous about the moonstar.
"What's going on?" Just as Moonstar was about to tell Shulex everything just now, the door on the opposite side suddenly opened, and Lilicia rubbed her sleepy eyes and looked at Moonstar who was soaking wet.
Shulex and Lilicia hurriedly ran to the living room with Moonstar, and as Moonstar said, there were footprints in front of the door, which led to the kitchen hallway.
"Did anyone break in, but with Rose's skills, they shouldn't lose easily, right?" Lilicia looked outside the gate, the footprints didn't look like they had come in running, they looked very calm, and they looked like they were acting with a purpose, "Then let's go find her, maybe she's been dealt with by her." ”
"Not true. Thurex grabbed Lilicia and looked nervously at the footprints on the ground.
"What's wrong?"
Shelex crouched down and reached out her fingers to touch the appearance of the mud footprints.
"Ice?"
"Huh, ice, no matter how cold it is, it can't freeze?" asked Lilicia rhetorically.
Xiu Rex sighed and said, "I didn't mean that, think about it, what other way to quickly create ice besides natural icing?"
"That can only be done with magic, but it can't be used in the City of Kings. ”
"What if anyone could use it?"
Shulex's words immediately caused Lilicia to fall into deep thought, if Rose was in any trouble, then that person was most likely a magician, and if he could use magic within this anti-magic weapon, I don't know how far the magic would go.
"Lilicia, what the hell is going on in that hallway? You've been in with Shulex, so you should be familiar with each other, right?"
"It's big inside, and there's a dungeon of no small size at the end, it's safe inside, and there's no way to get in. But why is that man running into a dead end?" Lilicia glanced at the fire in the fireplace, which was already about to be extinguished.
"I'm afraid it's to lure Rose over, since it's a dead end, he's not the only one who can't get out. Xiu Lex stood up and said, "We don't have magic now, we must be careful when we go in, retreat as soon as possible after finding Rose, and try to fight in an open place even with physical skills." ”
"The other party is a magician, are you sure you can do this?" Lilicia hesitated.
Shulex said resentfully, "I don't want to go to war with the magician if I can, it's so unfair, why is there a guy who can use magic in the King's City......"
......
In the dark dungeon, a few faint rays of moonlight shone down from the window, the light was very dim, Rose carefully watched the surroundings, without any breath, but from the battle just now, the other party was a child about the same size as herself, although she could use the same power as magic, but she always felt that the power was very strange.
"Hee-hee-hee...... I didn't think you really had the guts to come. ”
A girl's voice echoed through the dark dungeon, and Rose's gaze quickly shifted directions, but she couldn't detect her opponent's position from anywhere.
"Who are you......"
"What a cold tone, knowing that the gap in strength is so huge, but still following it, do you want to die here alone?"
It was raining outside, but the moonlight could extend here, and under the brightest moonlight, I don't know when a girl with loose hair stood up.
"What am I?~ I'll tell you well, remember my name, Arnold 61 Chelsrier, it's the eighth god's seat. ”
