Chapter 621: We still don't know the name of the stone statue we saw that day

The night was as cool as water, and the clouds obscured the moon, covering the whole of Kulokas much darker than usual.

Suddenly, several figures sprang out of the inn and, in the moonlight, moved towards the west of Culokas, and it was not long before they reached the foot of the mountain.

To the west of Kurokas, the mountain used to hold the Great Demon Fight in the original work is more than a thousand feet high, and is connected to the royal capital by a suspension bridge on the mountainside, and the distance between the two places is almost one-fifth of the diameter of the royal capital.

The most conspicuous thing on the summit is the four huge rock statues on the top of the mountain.

With these four statues as the four corners, the royal family of Fiore built a huge square gladiatorial arena on the top of the mountain, which was almost one-third the size of the royal palace Maculias, and the audience seat alone was enough to accommodate tens of thousands of spectators.

"It's so big!!"

"It's so high!!"

Under the moonlight, Natsu and the others looked up at the tall and majestic mountain peaks, each in shock.

"What kind of place is this?"

"Legend has it that this is the gladiatorial shrine built by the Fiore royal family according to the ancient battlefield, and there are countless corpses buried under it that once died on the battlefield, and until now, there are still undead haunted here!"

"Ghost ...... Phantom?! Lucy's face turned white with fright when she heard this.

Elusa looked at Lucy inexplicably, "What are you afraid of?" Isn't it a ghost? You haven't seen it?? ”

"Please!! Where would a normal person ever see something like that?! ”

"But Magnolia has a lot of ghosts."

"It's just that...... There are also magicians in the guild who can control ghosts and talk to them. ”

Natsu and Harpy were equally undaunted and chatted eloquently on the topic.

"Huh?! Have it?! Lucy was directly shocked, "What kind of place did I live in before?!" ”

"I remember that Piguslo's puppets seemed to be of this type, right? And Kico, whose magic is the ...... that manipulates ghosts."

Gray also interjected, and showed familiarity with his fellow guild mates.

"Nani?! There's such a thing?! ”

"Didn't there be a place called the 'Ghost Cemetery' at the Demon Dao Conference held before? The ghost in there is Magnolia's ghost friendship! ”

Seeing a few people talking about the topic of 'ghosts', Kira couldn't help but continue to go deeper.

"Ahh Could it be the one who caused Kana and me to swap bodies?! ”

Kira nodded repeatedly: "Yes, yes, yes!" When I invited them at that time, they all rushed for their places, and secretly told you that a ghost uncle quietly told me the place where he buried his treasure in order to enter the event......"

"Treasure ?!!!"

Everyone exclaimed excitedly, and their eyes lit up in unison, shining brightly.

“…… When I finally dug it up, I found a bunch of love letters that he hadn't sent out in his early years. ”

"It's boring!!"

"It's boring!!"

"It's disgusting!!"

"Why did that ghost uncle die again?"

Kira looked down at Wendy, why do you understand so much, little girl?

"Wendy, aren't you afraid?"

Lucy looked at Wendy curiously, in her opinion, Wendy was the youngest here, and she was a girl, so she should be afraid of ghosts.

Wendy chuckled and shook her head, "Not at all!" The Dragonslayer Galaxy, which I learned, is magic that can communicate with the undead, so I've been trying to talk to ghosts for a long time. ”

"Huh?! No way?!! ”

"Is that one of the two dragon-slaying mysteries you got from Pelusica's seniors?"

"That's right!"

At the mention of Pelucica, Wendy's mood became excited, and her face was full of happiness, "Although she is only an associate of Grantigne, the time I studied there was like going back to when I lived with Grantigne. ”

Hey, hey...... The people here don't have mothers - cats do!

Real people are not as good as cat series!

Oh no! There was a guy who already had a mom.

Fortunately, several people were not as embarrassed as Kira thought, but showed a relieved smile to Wendy.

"By the way, do you know who those four statues are up there?"

After observing the mountain above her for a moment, Lucy asked suddenly.

There are four statues, which are a bald man in a vest, a woman with a long ponytail, an uncle in a cloak, and a general in a cloak and helmet.

Hearing Lucy's question, everyone shook their heads.

"I don't know."

"I haven't heard of it."

"Probably some famous person, right?"

"Could it be a former king or something?"

"But they don't seem to have crowns!"

"What are the identities of these four statues...... I've heard a little bit about that! ”

"Huh?! Has Kira heard of it? ”

Everyone was stunned, and then smiled: "What a person who is in charge of the guild's intelligence!" ”

"Oh roar roar roar...... I also learned about it from the books on the street bookstalls after I first came to Kulokas! ”

"It is said that they were four followers of the first king of the Kingdom of Fiore, and that he made countless contributions to the establishment of the state by that king, so that the king, after establishing the Kingdom of Fiore, carved stone statues of the four of them, as a way to recognise their great achievements."

"In addition, the statue was deliberately built on the peak on the west side of the royal capital, which has the meaning of 'hoping that their remnants will protect the Fiore Kingdom forever'."

Several people looked like they were eating melons, and they were surprised again by Kira's erudition: "Huh, huh?? So there is still such a story? ”

"It's the first time I've heard of anything like this!"

"Me too!"

"Me too!"

"Uh-huh...... Semi-literate people who usually don't read books or newspapers can know these things. ”

"What do you say?! Who doesn't read? ”

Hearing Kira's words, Natsu and Harpy were the first to take it anymore and pounce on them, they felt that Kira was mocking them.

Then he was punched twice by Kira and fell to the ground.

Gray didn't jump up and get beaten, but stood still and laughed at Natsu's impulse: "Idiot Natsu, aren't you angry and admitting that you are illiterate in disguise?" ”

Natsu and Harry woke up from a dream: "Ah!! Oh yes!! ”

"What two idiots!"

Lucy complained, although it was the question she asked just now, she is not the kind of person who usually doesn't read books or newspapers.

"That's it!" Elusa clasped her arms to her chest and closed her eyes and nodded, but there was an indescribable stiffness in her body.

Lucy complained again: "You don't know either, do you......"

Harpy raised his claws and flew up and said, "No, we also read books and newspapers!" ”

Xia Lulu drooped a pair of eyes, and unceremoniously dismantled the stage and said, "The ones you see are all related to fish!" And it's basically all looking at pictures! ”

was exposed to the truth, and Harpy's face was a little unbearable, but he still said tenaciously: "That...... That's a yes! ”

"Ah, it's getting quieter."

"A follower of the original King Fiore? What kind of people are they? ”

Wendy asked curiously, looking up at the stone statue above her head.

"If you ask this, I'm not sleepy!"

Kira's eyes lit up, and she immediately began to talk eloquently: "When you mention them, you have to mention the first king of the Fiore Kingdom, and the life of that king is also legendary!" ”

It is said that he was originally a lord of a certain place, but because he could not stand the tyranny of the king, he raised an army and led a group of people to fight against the tyrant. His ideals of righteousness and peace attracted many people and forces who were also oppressed, and four of them were the most powerful, and the leaders of these four forces followed him in his battles in the north and south, and were the most loyal supporters of the first king. ”

Elusa pointed to the top of her head, "Are those four followers?" ”

"That's right! These four people are: the general who led a hundred battles; Famous treasure hunter; the president of a magical chamber of commerce; There are also loyal warriors. ”

"With their help, the first kings slowly conquered the surrounding territories, eventually establishing the current kingdom."

When several people heard this, they felt that it was wrong, and immediately folded their fingers and counted carefully: "Generals, treasure hunters, chamber of commerce presidents, warrior ......"

At the end of the day, one of the most important professions was missing!

"Isn't there even a magician?!"

Elusa and the others were shocked.

It stands to reason that magic is the strongest cultivation system in this world, and Fiore is a magic kingdom, so there should be no shortage of magicians when it is established!

"No!"

Kira shook her head and explained, "At that time, the magic world was not as regulated as it is now, there was neither a magic guild nor a council, so the powerful people were basically magicians and magicians!" ”

"That primordial king is a magician whose strength is far above that of the four followers!"
