-124- "Lost Contact"
"Wait...... The true emblem of our Lord...... What is it? ”
Astrid froze in place, her expression becoming dazed.
Seeing his daughter's appearance, Balder sighed and said:
"Astrid, I know you're reluctant to give up your past beliefs, but ......"
"Nope! That's not true! I have just received the favor of my Lord! I saw Him! He sat on the throne and He smiled at me...... And gave me the power to defeat the power of the totem of the Linhai tribe! ”
The girl said excitedly.
Seeing the girl's anxious appearance, Balder frowned slightly.
He sighed, and was about to continue the persuasion, but suddenly his eyes were fixed, and he looked at the girl's right arm.
"Astrid, where's that old scar on your arm?"
"Old ...... Old scars? ”
Astrid was stunned.
She subconsciously raised her hand, and then found that the indelible scar left by the attack of the demonic beast when she was a child had disappeared.
The girl was stunned for a moment, and then immediately reacted, and said excitedly:
"That's right! That's it! Scar! ”
"Father! Did you see that? Even the scars of my past are gone! ”
"This is the power of our Lord! I didn't lie to you! I just really got power from the gods! I was mortally wounded in my previous battles with Gunar, and it was the power of our Lord that healed me! ”
"That power not only healed me, but even the scars of the past are gone!"
looked at his daughter's extremely excited appearance.
Balder was also a little surprised.
To be honest, he didn't know what had just happened to his daughter, and this kind of holy emblem and forgotten look like a little girl's vexatious trouble.
But he knew one thing.
That's the old scar on his daughter's arm, even if the best witch doctor in the north comes, I'm afraid there is no way to get rid of it.
Coupled with the fact that his own daughter also defeated the heir of the Linhai tribe unscathed, these things ...... None of them seem to be solved by common sense.
Calm down and think about it.
Before he rushed to the challenge field after hearing the news, he did feel the powerful power of the totem.
It's just that the power of the totem is too strong, and he doesn't connect with his daughter at all.
Thinking of this, Balder hurriedly clenched his daughter's arm and closed his eyes to cross into the source force.
The source power entered the girl's body, however, as she checked Astrid's physical condition according to the previous route, she felt an indescribable repulsive force.
Balder only felt as if he saw a patch of crimson in front of his eyes, and then ...... His power was banished from the girl's body.
This...... This is...... Totem Guardian?!
Balde's eyes widened.
He calmed down completely, looked at the girl, and asked with some surprise:
"Astrid ...... What color is the power of the totem of your 'awakening'? ”
Seeing that her father had finally begun to believe in herself, Astrid was very excited:
"Red! It's red! Red as blood! ”
"Red ......"
Balder's gaze froze instantly.
His mind flashed back to the crimson pillar of light he saw rising into the sky when he was looking for his daughter before.
Crimson totem pillars, crimson totem guards......
This...... Could it be that Astrid has really gained the power of totem?!
He had thought that the powerful force before was the totem priest of a large tribe who had gone crazy, but now it seemed that ...... Could it be his own daughter?
But...... If her daughter really gained the power of the totem, why can't she use the power now, and even forgot the so-called "Holy Emblem"?
"Astrid ...... Are you sure that the totemic power you have obtained before belongs to my lord? ”
After thinking for a moment, Balder asked with a serious expression.
The girl nodded like a chicken pecking rice:
"Sure! Pretty sure! That's my lord! His palace...... It's almost exactly like our temple in the canyon! ”
"Is it exactly the same palace......
Bald muttered to himself.
After some changes in his expression, his gaze gradually became firm:
"Astrid, let's go, let's go back to the tribe now."
"Back to ...... Tribe? Right now? ”
The girl was stunned.
The Northern Warrior nodded, and said in a deep voice:
"If you really awaken the power of the totem, if the power of the totem really belongs to my lord...... Perhaps returning to the temple will allow you to exert your power once again. ”
"And ......"
He paused, and once again flashed in his mind the crimson pillar of light that he had just seen rising into the sky from a distance, and said:
"If that crimson glow is really your awakened totemic power, then ...... There is no need for us to attend this meeting of the Grand Duke. ”
As the leader of the tribe, Balder knew more than Astrid.
Since three years ago, the power of the Northern Demonic Beasts has steadily increased, threatening the survival of many Northern tribes.
But in the same way, in the past three years, the totems worshiped by many northern tribes have also increased in power to varying degrees.
What's more, it is even rumored that some tribes worship gods that show signs of revival.
However, the "gods" enshrined by the Free Tribal Confederation never showed such signs.
But if what happened to his daughter was really given by the gods......
Well, maybe this time, it's their turn.
Thinking of this, Balder also gradually became excited.
If he didn't have no choice, he wouldn't be willing to accept the Grand Duke's "recruitment".
Listening to her father's words, Astrid also calmed down.
She thought back to what she had just experienced, and nodded:
"That's right! Back to the temple, let's go back to the temple! ”
"When I returned to the temple and saw the idol of my lord, I will be able to connect with my lord again through prayer!"
The father finally came to an agreement.
They did not hesitate, and hurriedly returned to the hotel where they lived, packed their luggage and returned.
……
Astrid couldn't figure out why she had lost the connection she had just made with the gods, and even the god's emblem was forgotten.
And thousands of miles away, there are also people who are surprised by such a result.
The Kingdom of Falling Stars picks up the "Queen" on the battleship.
Charlotte slowly opened her eyes, cutting off contact with the North.
"The connections that had just been established were suppressed......"
"No, it's not like suppression, it's more like some kind of interference, some kind of shielding, and even blocking the memories of 'believers'."
"It's kind of interesting, isn't that what it is...... The power of the Faceless Idol? ”
"No...... Something else seems to be disturbing me and preventing me from establishing contact with the Free Tribal Alliance......"
