Chapter 3: Scarlet Memory

"The members of the royal family are both noble leaders and great warriors. Bill changed his words: "However, many of the legends circulating on the continent are not all created by the royal family. ”

"We live on a continent where many nobles believe that the world is not endless, and when they have achieved fame, they often choose to give up their positions of power and plunge into adventures, wandering the world until they reach the 'sea at the end of the Danario'. Bill continued: "But when you open the map of the continent, you will find that the surrounding areas of various civilizations are still covered with smoke and clouds. ”

"It's not because the adventurers are different, but because there is something that stands in their way at the borders of the continent, in other words, there seems to be an invisible 'wall' around the continent, which cuts us off from all information from the outside world. Bill recounted eloquently, but William couldn't help but cough lightly.

Then his tone began to skeptical: "If the Lockedan royal family exhausts all the riches on the throne just to find the end of the world, then they are really an interesting and generous group of beings, and you should know how low the probability is." ”

Bill sighed, "He didn't stop by our side, he didn't talk to us about this, I just hope that the matter of the succession to the throne will not cause too much trouble to the Holy Wing Empire and the Silver Wing Kingdom." ”

"Have you retracted your rambling conjecture?" asked William with concern.

"Cut, I didn't expect you to admit it when I spoke. Bill turned his head and lifted the reins of his horse lightly, and William followed, and the two of them galloped through the snow, and in an instant they had left the village behind a hundred miles.

The winter snowflakes are like broken feathers on the wings of angels, falling in pieces under the influence of the wind, but the earth is not completely extinguished.

In the center of Zhuyu Village, the young man in the black crow feather cloak, with an extraordinary handsome face, and silver-haired and blue eyes, turned his head to look ahead, his indifferent expression revealing a subtle irony.

"Those two people just now may be from the Holy Wing Royal Knights, you should know by looking at the badge on your chest. He muttered to himself, looking in the direction where William and the others had been riding their horses just now, and there was a slight hint of sadness in his blue pupils.

"It seems that they don't know what happened some time ago, and they are not sensitive to my appearance, and the direction they are galloping in seems to be Xingyu City in the west, where things have long been wrong. He shook his head: "It's a shame that I should have told them about it... This goes on like this..."

He seemed a little annoyed, but suddenly for a moment he covered his ribs with his hands on his chest, panting, and then his face showed a slight look of pain.

"Damn, I'm injured and I'm running out of strength, what should I do now?" he could no longer support his body, and fell from his horse to the ground in embarrassment, red blood gradually staining the white snow.

"You have to find a place to bandage the wound and then rest for the night. He muttered to himself, "Hopefully, Ai Suyan, he has reached a safe place." ”

He came to a house and knocked softly on the door.

The door opened, revealing an old man with gray hair, but then his face was startled.

"Hey, young man, on such a snowy day, are you not afraid of freezing when you are alone outside? Come into the house quickly, I'll ask my wife to make you a bowl of porridge, oh my God, you're still bleeding, look under your cloak, it hurts, right? I'll go get the ointment and bandages. He welcomed the other man into the house and began to prepare for the rescue.

After some time, the old man's wife, a dying old woman, came to the young man and brought a bowl of hot porridge, and the young man looked at the old woman gratefully, then took the bowl of porridge, took a sip, and said, "Why do you have to be so enthusiastic about me?"

But the old woman suddenly laughed: "You may not know that any corner of the Silver Wing Land should be like this, when I was young, the great King Lockdan won the war, and once warned all the people, 'Good men must watch and help each other whenever and wherever they are', the king saved us, and after that, of course we will obey his advice." Also, your blue eyes resemble the king's, and this is the first time I've seen them with my own eyes. To be honest, I'm really a little envious. ”

She said indifferently, but she didn't notice the tears that suddenly appeared in the corners of the young man's eyes.

"It's you, father, who have been protecting me... May you rest in peace in heaven. He then wrapped himself in bandages and lay quietly on the villager's bed, then closed his eyes and fell into a contemplative memory.

This is a bloody memory mixed with love and hatred...

Three days ago, he flew from the center of the Silver Wing King City of Tianyu City on the Pegasus "Wings of the Wind" and carried his younger brother Aisuyan, over the towering city walls, looking back at the flames in the sky, and then his gaze became decisive for a moment.

"In any case, you must leave safely and live. His father's admonition was still echoing in his ears as he parted, when Ai Suyan, who was on horseback behind him, suddenly asked a question that he would never forget.

"Brother, when will we come back when we leave this time?"

After listening to this, his eyes became moist for a moment, and then he paused for a moment, but in the end he did not disappoint the other party.

"I don't know, but I will. ”

Ai Suyan nodded: "At that time, let's go to the creek together." ”

He didn't answer, and the arm holding the reins suddenly became incredibly powerful, and Pegasus let out a high-pitched hiss, and then quickly skimmed the brutal landscape beneath him.

However, while passing through the outskirts of the royal city, they were spotted by a group of enemy soldiers armed with crossbows.

But this group of enemy soldiers was not like the other loyal warriors, their eyes were cold and evil, as if they had been "cursed magic", they numbered about five hundred, each of them quickly drew their crossbows and crossbows, and in an instant they all shot at the prince and his party in the sky.

Pegasus flapped his wings to avoid the rain of arrows, countless sharp arrows passed by, at this time the white and holy snowflakes, I don't know when, actually came to the world early, the snow fluttered in the air, he jumped off the horse's back, the sword in his hand instantly out of the sheath, silver armor and snow, like a divine soldier falling from the sky.

All the soldiers looked at the top of their heads in disbelief, but instead of landing straight, he used a magic called "Featherfall", and then slowly floated to the ground under its effect, after which he charged at the enemy soldiers.

Perhaps all the soldiers were amazed at his courage at the time, but the evil wishes made them merciless, and after a fierce battle, the "Wings of the Wind" flew into the distance, and he was seriously wounded, but he also single-handedly killed more than 500 enemy soldiers.

The soldiers were unwilling to retreat, and instead of killing them all, he found a stable around him, bought a horse with the few gold coins he had left, and then drove away.

Three days later, the unbelievable earth-shattering event has become distant.

At this moment, the serious injuries he had received many days ago were tormenting his body and mind with the slightest pain in his flesh and blood, but perhaps because of the fatigue he had been exerting for a long time, he quickly fell asleep at the head of the bed.

The next day arrived,

The snow outside is getting lighter, so you can tell by listening to the sound. He thought to himself.

As for now, my wounds have healed a lot, and it's time to go to the Holy Wing Empire to join my brother, but before that, let's say goodbye to my grandfather.

He walked out of the bedroom, into the hall of the house, and asked in a loud voice, "Old man, old lady, I have something to tell you!"

But no one answered, and there was only silence around, and there was no half of a figure in sight.

He asked again in a loud voice, but still received no answer.

"Where are you, old man, I was the young man of last night!" he cried anxiously, and then he began to search the house for signs of the two.

After a while, he found nothing, and the two residents disappeared as if out of thin air.

He galloped out of the house, still surrounded by snow, and his mind was now enveloped by an ominous premonition.

"Could it be—" He was anxious, his eyes scanning his surroundings back and forth, only to notice a thicker snow and haze than yesterday.

"Old man!" he shouted again, his echo distant and loud in the snow-clad world.

Suddenly, a high-pitched female voice came from behind him, and he looked back.

"Long time no see, Prince Essuyun. ”

The person who came was holding a green staff, dressed in a black robe, with a sly gaze, but said with a smile.

"I'm not the only one this time, and you'll have to pay a price if you want to save the people here. ”

Ai Suyun froze in place, her azure pupils like a clear sky, but she couldn't tell that the next second would be a haze or lightning and thunder.
