Chapter 390: The End of the Fire Defense Girl
"What's going on?" Leo stepped forward with a puzzle in his heart, and took a closer look at the corpse of the fire guard girl in the ruins of the secret room.
It is not very appropriate to say that it is a corpse, because most of them have decomposed to the point that only the bones remain, and the few that are not completely decomposed, only three corpses are still slowly decomposing. The reason why they recognized that these corpses were all fire defense women was because all the corpses were wearing extremely obvious fire defense women's clothes, and their heads were wearing the masks of fire defense women, and the only thing missing was the scepter in the fire defense girl's hand.
"Isn't it the fire defense woman, the scepter is? Seeing this, Leo couldn't help but have a thought in his heart.
After Leo's eyes swept over all the corpses, he finally landed on the relatively best-preserved corpse of the fire defense woman, although it was almost similar to the dry corpse, but Leo could still identify the body of the fire defense girl from some subtle features as the fire defense girl he had communicated with not long ago, and the cause of death of this fire defense girl was completely different from other fire defense women.
Judging from the preservation of the bones, the other fire defense women all died of natural causes, only the corpse of this fire defense girl has different injuries, the most serious of which is that the heart was pierced from the back, which can be said to be fatal, and from the size and width of the scars, it should be a big sword, which made Leo can't help but think of the big sword in the hand of Seredor, and other wounds also have knight's sword, battle axes and burns and other traces.
Leo quickly constructed a picture based on the scars on the corpse in Leo's mind, in which the three of the White Cult, the three berserkers, the old man and the Seredor attacked the Fire Defense Girl at almost the same time, and the Fire Defense Girl was killed by them without even making a gesture to resist.
"Was it premeditated?" Leo thought to himself, confused.
It's just that this idea only flashed in his mind and was denied by him, and others don't say it, Seredor definitely can't be a part of the premeditation, although he and Seredore haven't been together for a long time, but he can clearly feel that Théredor is a person, in a certain aspect, Théredor and Jason are very similar, so he is willing to bring Théredor to the royal city together.
If it weren't for the power of the small garden that disturbed the time and space of the royal city, making him stagger the time and space at that time, maybe he would still explore the royal city with Thredor, and even help Thredor complete his purpose of going to the royal city.
However, the current situation shows that Seredor also acted at the time against the fire defense girl whom he respected so much, and delivered the most lethal blow, which is obviously extremely inconsistent with Seredor's character.
Either there was something abnormal in the fire defense girl, and the people in the prayer hall secretly made a plan to solve the abnormal fire defense girl together, or the fire defense girl was normal, and the others had an abnormality.
"Those idols?" Leo instantly thought in his mind at this moment that before he broke off contact with the Fire Defense Girl, Seredor and the others had all obtained something by praying to different gods, and then he thought about the position of everyone at that time, and found that it seemed to coincide with the position of the Fire Defense Girl's wound, for example, Seredor was standing behind the Fire Defense Girl at that time.
"That is to say, there was an abnormality over there, and the moment I cut off contact with the fire defense girl, they started at the same time. Leo frowned slightly and muttered, "Is it because there is something wrong with the idol?"
Although there is no evidence, but from all the clues now, it seems that there is something wrong with the idol, at the moment when Leo threw the heart of the tree into the bonfire and maintained the flame of the bonfire, some of the things hidden in the idol were stimulated, and while Seredore and the others prayed to the idol and obtained the revelation of the idol, they were also affected by what was hidden in the idol, and may even have been invaded, and finally they would invariably launch an attack on the fire defense girl, and cooperate with each other seamlessly.
Leo muttered to himself again, "Why am I okay? Is it because what is hidden in the idol has been stimulated in the past time and space?"
As he spoke, Leo squatted down and carefully checked the corpse of the fire defense girl, because the collapse of the secret room just now made the corpses a little misplaced, but judging from the position of the corpse, it was obvious that it was carefully selected, and the bodies of other fire defense women around were moved away, so that they could lie in a separate open space completely, which shows that someone specially put the body of the fire defense girl here to bury, and this person also knows the fire defense girl very well, otherwise it is impossible to find this secret room that specializes in storing the corpses of fire defense women in the past dynasties。
Soon Leo found a book from under the fire girl, the book was supposed to be on the stomach of the fire girl, and the fire girl was lying on the ground, her hands overlapped on the book, just because of the movement just now, the fire girl turned over, and the book was pressed under her.
This book is not a religious book related to the royal city, but a magic notebook, a magic note written in words that Leo can't read, but because of the special power of the End of Everything, Leo can barely read some of the words and patterns on the cover and some pages that do not involve mysterious powers, and barely make out that the book is written by a magician from the Dragon Academy.
Seeing this magic notebook, Leo immediately remembered the old man who had been sitting next to the campfire, because he remembered that the old man had always had a leather bag hanging around his waist, and the leather bag was bulging, and it should have been put in something, and from the appearance of the magic notebook in his hand was about the same size as the magic notebook in his hand now.
"Why? Why did he bury the Fire Guard, why did he put the most important magic note on the Fire Guard?"
It stands to reason that after Thérador and the others attacked the Fire Defense Girl under the influence of the unknown force in the idol, they should not have handled her body so carefully, unless after they killed the Fire Defense Girl, they regained their consciousness and escaped the control of the unknown force in the idol.
Moreover, judging from all indications, they did not rely on their own strength to get out of control, but more likely to have done it before the fire defense girl died, and what kind of mood the recovered people would be when they realized what they had done. You can imagine it.
After making what he thought was the most plausible guess based on the clues he could find so far, Leo turned his attention to the magic book in his hand and quickly flipped through a few pages to see if he could decipher the magic book through the special powers of the End of Everything.
But after turning the two pages and seeing a magic array diagram, he was suddenly stunned, as if he had found something, and his face showed a rather serious expression, and then he saw him take out the crystallized magic book that had been stored in the space from the storage space, and put the cover of the crystallized magic book and the magic array map together and compared it.
I saw that there was also a very fine layer of magic array on the surface of the crystallized magic book, because of the crystallization on the surface, if you didn't look carefully, you couldn't see it clearly, but the interesting thing was that this magic array was almost exactly the same as the magic array on the magic note in Leo's hand, and what was even more incredible was that the handwriting of those special words on the magic array was exactly the same, according to Leo's handwriting analysis, it can basically be judged that it was written by the same person.
"Could it be that he is the crystallized old man in the big library?" Leo, who had made a discovery, couldn't help but have a bold idea.
Although this idea may feel absurd, it is not impossible, because the time and space of this place where everything ends are completely chaotic, the present may be both the future and the past, and everything that happens here cannot be explained by common sense.
This magic note was a windfall for Leo, and it was also very important to him, as he might be able to decipher it and figure out how to use the Crystallized Old Man's magic book.
Thinking of this, Leo unceremoniously received the magic notebook as a burial object into the storage space along with the crystallized magic book, and then carefully checked it to see if there were any omissions.
After noticing that nothing was missing, Leo got up and moved some stones from the rubble next to him, and stacked them neatly on and around the corpse of the Fire Lady to make a simple grave before he got up and left, continuing towards the hidden path that led to the upper old town.
Along the way, Leo was thinking about the final whereabouts of Seredor and the others, and at the same time kept trying the effect of the pus in his hand, and the final result was very good, as long as Leo didn't take the initiative to provoke, those living corpses and monsters with signs of human pus possession would not take the initiative to attack Leo.
It didn't take long for Leo to return to the temple area, and this time he didn't think much of it, and after having prepared any psionic skills, sorcery, and divine seals that could deal with emergencies, he stepped into the main street of the temple area, and entered the patrol area of the monsters that the clergy had turned into.
Just like other places, after Leo entered the monster's patrol area, those monsters were also aware of it, but the human pus on Leo's body was camouflaged very well, and those monsters did not attack Leo, but just followed their own established routes, patrolling back and forth.
Leo quickly moved around the temple area, not wasting time searching the surrounding temples, although he was likely to have a lot of good things in the temples around, but he was not in the mood now, leaving here as soon as possible was his only thought, he wanted to know if the world where Joey and the others were located was on the same planet as the world of Velon.
However, at least for now, Leo is sure that this place where it all ends, or Intracity, is far away from Joey's world, far beyond the confines of a small galaxy, because he doesn't feel the imprint of life on Joey's body in the slightest.
The location of the hidden path is very eye-catching, in the largest temple in the temple area, there is only one idol stored here, that is, the god king Gwen, who is called the incarnation of the sun, but just like the other gods in the temple, the idol of the god king Gwen has also been destroyed, only the lower body sitting on the throne is still relatively intact, and the upper body has been completely smashed to pieces.
However, it is not difficult to see from the remaining fragments that Gwen's idol is so large that the top of his head can touch the ceiling more than thirty meters high just by sitting.
However, it is a little strange that Gwen does not seem to be human, because the lower half of the body left on the throne is not a human leg, but a flame.
According to the information in that book, the production of the statues of the gods in the royal city was very strict, and only the high-ranking clergy were qualified to make the statues, and the appearance of the statues had extremely strict requirements, and they must be made in full accordance with the appearance of the gods, and no personal play was tolerated, so except that the size of the statues could be slightly modified, the appearance of each statue was the shape of the corresponding gods.
The other gods have such strict regulations, so the idol of the king of the gods naturally cannot tolerate the slightest sloppiness, so the flame of the lower body of the god statue also represents that the god king Gwen does have a lower body formed by flames.
And this made Leo even more puzzling, because according to this calculation, how could this god-king with a flaming lower body have children similar to human bodies?
This is completely inconsistent with some of the near-theorems recorded in Leo's memory of the reproduction of life in the universe.
Leo couldn't help but wonder: "Could it be that the children of the God King are not the God King, so when the eldest son makes a mistake, he will punish him so severely, and even deprive the eldest son of everything." ”
It's just that just after Leo made a malicious speculation, several very abrupt noises around him alarmed Leo, and made him involuntarily put his realization and attention to the place where the sound came from.
I saw two figures walking out from behind the statue of God King Gwen, and I hardly needed to think about it, from the clothes of the two figures, it could be seen that the two of them were the two knights who guarded the nuns of the White Sect.
It's just that their condition is not very good now, the armor on their bodies is very badly damaged, both have a lot of scars on their bodies, one of them has even broken an arm, and the worst thing is that they are all completely living corpses, which means that they are no different from those living corpses outside, just slightly stronger.
Seeing that the two knights had turned into living corpses, Leo couldn't help but wonder what was going on with them, and he didn't take any precautions, because it was not difficult to see from the experiment just now that the living corpses would not attack him in the disguise of human pus, so he now also thought that the two living knights would not attack him.
It's just that he soon realized that he had misjudged.
I saw that when the two living corpse knights moved Leo at a distance of less than ten meters, the two living corpse knights suddenly started and rushed in front of Leo at a very fast speed, and the knight swords in their hands cooperated with each other, blocking all the positions that Leo could move, and rushed towards the vital points on his body, as if Leo was their most hated target.
