The little girl hid her body behind the idol of Dorne, and she couldn't seem to imagine that there would be outsiders here, and for a moment she was terrified, and her voice trembled: "Stranger, stranger is coming!" ”

The girl was about thirteen or fourteen years old, with simple and capable long gray shawl hair, a pair of sky-blue eyes full of fear, and a pair of gray-haired beast ears sticking out of the gray hair swaying back and forth, very cute.

The girl's countenance was also very delicate, showing no signs of malnutrition at all, with a delicate face with a slight hint of baby fat, and she was dressed in clothes made of animal skins and burlap, and tied with a gray scarf, as lovely as a porcelain doll.

As soon as she saw such a cute beast girl, Eleanor was sick professionally, and Miss Priest habitually showed a bright smile for business, took the initiative to step forward, and took out a candy from her arms with great skill: "Little friend, why are you here?" ”

"............" The beast-eared girl hurriedly stepped back, and she continued to shrink behind the statue.

"Hee-hee, it looks like our Eleanor is very good at deceiving children!" Charlotte said with a grin.

"After all, she is a priest, and Our Lady of Silver has a long tradition of accepting babies of all races." Aaron couldn't help but smile as he recalled the past between the two.

"Looks like Miss Eleanor's trick didn't work this time." Anomin patted the dust off her body.

Sure enough, no matter how much Eleanor showed her friendliness, the little girl always shook her head, and she tried to escape several times in her nervousness, but she couldn't find a chance, and she was about to cry aggrieved.

Eleanor used most of her routines with children, but she was really out of luck, so she had to show that she had no malice and slowly retreated: "Aaron, look at this ......"

But this retreat, Aaron's figure was revealed, and the little girl with beast ears lit up in her eyes the moment she saw Aaron, and excitedly trotted a few steps in a row and threw herself on Aaron's pants: "Mr. Guardian!" ”

"Huh?!" The girl's reaction stunned everyone.

Aaron half-squatted down and pressed the girl's shoulders with both hands: "You know me?" ”

"Of course I do!" The girl's hand groped around Aaron's lap: "You're the Guardian Big Brother!" I've seen you in the statues of the island's gods, and you look exactly like the stone statues! ”

"Don't pester me." Aaron put the girl down: "Where is this?" Who are you? Why is it here? What does this idol have to do with you? ”

The girl didn't answer any of Aaron's questions, and her eyes suddenly filled with tears.

"Help me! Mr. Guardian! ”

"Huh?"

Half an hour later, somewhere in the forest within the coastline of the island.

The dense forest is lush, the sun is completely hidden by the large trees that shade the sky, a trace of cooking smoke rises from the top of the treehouse, and the small room is carpeted, and the five people sit in it a little cramped.

The cauldron was placed on the fire in the center of the treehouse, and Aaron was putting the pickles, pork belly, and spices in his hand into the iron pot, and then taking out the tofu and placing it in the palm of his hand.

"I ate pickles and rolled tofu ~ Emperor Laozi, not as good as me ~"

The chopped tofu was thrown into the pot and boiled, and it was quickly cooked, and she scooped up a piece and put it in the bowl of the beast-eared girl, who looked at the slightly dyed tofu cube with suspicion, and when she thought that it was the food given by Mr. Guardian himself, she was full of courage and stuffed the tofu into her mouth, and then closed her eyes, ready to sacrifice.

Honk! The girl's pair of furry ears jerked up, and a little black tip on the tip of the gray fur pointed straight to the ceiling.

Delicious!

"It's delicious, thank you!" The girl was very polite.

Eleanor smiled heartily at the girl's liking, and Miss Priest was proud of Aaron's cooking, and proud of the beast-eared girl's willingness to accept their food.

And Charlotte always stared at the girl's pair of cute gray-haired beasts, and the eldest lady wanted to touch it, very much!

"Say, what is this place?" Aaron sat cross-legged, and the continuous drag racing made him look tired.

"This is Castle Joy, Mr. Guardian!" The girl gulped down pickles, rolled tofu and dry food, and answered Aaron's question as she ate: "My name is Baizi, and I am a resident of Castle Joy, Mr. Guardian, you are finally here, please, save Castle Joy, save this island, right?" ”

"Don't worry, you speak slowly." Aaron saw that the girl was about to start to get anxious again, so he quickly motioned for her to eat slowly and speak slowly.

From the girl, Aaron learns something about the "Castle of Joy".

This island is called "Happy Castle" in the mouth of the girl, there are some inhabitants on the island, not many, about more than 100 people, the vegetation on the island is dense, the products are abundant, and the islanders live on the island very peacefully.

As for when there were inhabitants on the island, Bai Zi said that she didn't know, she only knew that the island was extremely rich in products, and the land was cooked five or six times a year, and the fish could not be fished out, and the livestock grew very fast.

The inhabitants settled here and lived a life of freedom from the world.

All of them were infected with bestiality, but thanks to the protection of some divine power, the bestiality of the islanders was controlled to a weak condition of excessive body hair and the growth of animal ears.

What is that divine force?

Statue of Roger Dorn.

"You've lived here for so many years, haven't you wanted to go out and ask for help?" Eleanor took Shiroko's little hand in distress, and Miss Pastor took her into her arms: "How boring it is to stay on the island, isolated from the world! ”

"None of us can leave the Castle of Joy." Bai Zi shook his head in embarrassment: "As long as we leave the protection range of the gods, we will immediately become werewolves who have lost our minds!" ”

Aaron understood that the Joy Castle was not actually joyful.

"Then why do you call me Mr. Guardian? Please, save Castle Joy, what's going on? ”

Aaron then asked.

"The gods are guarding the castle of joy," the old men said...... "The girl told Aaron what had happened.

In the underground center of the Castle of Joy is a forbidden place, which is the seal of the gods (nine times out of ten, Rogdorn), there are many stone statues that he once carved with his own hands, and one of them looks almost exactly like Aaron, and every year during the sacrifice, Shirako will see several stone statues.

The situation at Fort Joy is bad.

Over the years, the power of the gods has gradually declined, and the power of the seal has gradually loosened, and from time to time demons will appear to attack the castle, and the islanders will neither be able to leave the island nor strengthen the seal.

The ending of the Joy Castle looks like it's already preordained.

The only hope circulating among the islanders was the "Bodean Promise", in which the navigator had promised to take a mighty fleet, laden with cargo and strong men, to settle the problem of the Castle of Joy once and for all.

Hundreds of years have passed, but Bodean has not reappeared.

From looking out with anticipation, to sending people to watch, to disappointment, the "Bodean Promise" has become a slang term for those who don't keep their word.

Other than that, Shirako didn't know anything more, she just kept begging Aaron to save Castle Joy.

"Understood, Baizi, can you take us to Castle of Joy tomorrow?" Aaron touched the girl's head and whispered.

"Hmm!"

After eating and drinking, the five of them rested in the treehouse that night, which, according to Shirako, was the "secret stronghold" she found.

Unlike the rest of the islanders, the naïve girl always believed that Captain Bodan was not lying, and that he would definitely come back! Certain!

Now, isn't that all she has to say? She didn't wait for Captain Bodan, but she waited for Mr. Guardian!

This night, the girl slept very soundly.

"Aaron? It's late, don't you rest? Eleanor cleaned up and found Aaron still sitting outside the house.

The eldest lady had already fallen asleep with Bai Zi in her arms, and her hands were still pinching Bai Zi's beast ears, which according to Bai Zi were werewolf bestiality ears.

The night wind blew through the large forest on the island, blowing Aaron's hair and clothes whirring, and he frowned: "I feel it." ”

"What do you feel?" Eleanor walked over to Aaron and sat down, and Miss Priest took the initiative to lean on his shoulder: "I see that you have been very happy today, haven't we found the island you have been looking for?" Didn't we find the person you've been looking for? Tomorrow, this kid will take us to Castle Joy, and we have finally reached this point, so you should be happy. ”

"I feel it." Aaron looked at the horizon with no end in sight, and in the darkness there was constantly the sound of waves crashing against the reef by the sea: "I told you before that I am the personal choice of the four powerful divine powers, right?" ”

"Well, I know that they have given you a hint of divinity, and they have almost killed you, but they have also made you happen." Eleanor nodded.

"The call of the four gods echoed in the wind." Aaron patted his chest: "The power within me is also calling, and I can feel that their power is in the depths of the island of pleasure." ”

"And what are you going to do?" Eleanor looked up, a hint of surprise on Miss Priest's delicate and bright face, and her ocean-blue eyes stared at Aaron, "Do you want to save the Castle of Joy?" Mr. Guardian? ”

"I don't know." Aaron quietly cast his gaze into the treehouse: "You know, dear, what she says isn't necessarily true, or rather, not entirely true. ”

"Whether it's true or not, we should all go to Fort Joy to have a look!" Eleanor did not deny Aaron's words, and Miss Pastor said very firmly: "There are so many people who are infected with bestiality, should we abandon them?" Our Lord didn't teach us that, at least we had to make sure that they were good beasts and willing to leave! At least we're going to give them a chance! ”

"You're right, dear." Aaron got up slowly: "But I'm not worried about this, I, you, Charlotte Annomin are all master-level strength, are we afraid of a group of bestialized villagers?" ”

"What I'm really worried about is the moment I meet Roger Dorn." Aaron squeezed Eleanor's little hand.

Rog Dorn, Lord God, Demon Appears, Seal Weakens, Save Castle of Joy, Bodrian's Promise.

Based on the above series of information, using Tzeent's power to analyze, many answers are already coming out.

This is the key to unlocking the power of Nurgle, and at the same time, the key to the Emperor's mission.

Aaron had a very strong premonition.

The time to make a decision is coming!

"I'll go with you then!" Eleanor shook Aaron's big hand with her backhand: "Let's face it together!" ”

"Say what? Eleanor, do you know what we're up against? A strange-tempered, opinionated, boring and nonsense master, a little loving, unyielding man, a demigod known for his ability to fight with his brothers and his castle fetish, I guess he wanted to kill me the moment he saw me. The corners of Aaron's mouth twitched.

"Then I'm going to go with you!" Eleanor pinched Aaron's palm hard, and Miss Reverend's tone was very tough: "Remember what you once said to me? ”

"Huh?"

"Aaron! You've said, 'Eleanor, I don't know what to do without you.'" Miss Recher imitated Aaron's tone and said, "What? My Viscount? At the beginning, I talked sweetly at the first opportunity, what is it now...... If you get everything, kick me away? ”

Miss Pastor waved her little fist and said domineeringly, "Don't underestimate me! Don't you like to call him the Terra Stone Man? How dare I bully you, watch me smash his stone head with Suren's tears! ”

"Hahahaha Aaron finally couldn't hold back anymore and laughed out loud.

"Okay, let's go together! Let's see if he blows up the head chosen by me, the Four Chaos Gods, or if we hammer his stone head! ”

The two hands clasped tightly together, feeling the temperature between each other.

Yes, she's Eleanor!

Eleanor, who has been with him since he woke up!

In the dark forest sea, only the sound of the wind remains.

…………

The next day, Bai Zi took Aaron and the others to the Castle of Joy as promised.

The beautiful island of joy is like a brightly colored picture scroll under the leadership of Shirako, slowly unfolding in front of Aaron and others.

Under the clattering waterfall cliff, the beast-eared girl and Aaron slowly advanced from the very narrow path, the road carved out of the cliff was only one person wide, the left was a cliff, the right was a cliff, the waves, the water flowing down from above formed a transparent curtain, thrilling and exciting, but also beautiful.

The steps in the cave are wet, and stalactite pillars drip water that flows around the cave walls.

Out of the cave, the island is densely covered with vegetation and soaked in the lake composed of seawater, and all you can see are the big trees of more than 1,000 years, and the thick roots of the trees are deeply rooted in the sea lake, under the lush sky, the morning light is scattered here, and the birds are singing here.

Further in, the landscape turns from verdant to deep blue, with trees blocking all sunlight, the turquoise blue of the saltwater lake abruptly ending in front of a small waterfall and replaced by a clear spring and freshwater river, a simple stone-made arched bridge covered with moss, pebbles under the stream bear witness to the island's history, and the air is filled with fluorescence.

Everything was so beautiful that it was like a dream, and Aaron, who had just survived a shipwreck, almost thought he had come to a fairy tale.

"Fireflies! I've never seen so many fireflies! Charlotte excitedly catches a firefly, but for some reason, the firefly dissipates automatically when it touches the eldest lady's fingertips.

Energy creatures?

"We're here!"

Shirako excitedly pointed into the distance.

Stepping out of the forest, a small settlement appeared in front of the crowd.

Great turquoise lakes, forest settlements, wooden buildings built on the shores and surfaces of the lake, flowing water, stone walls, windmills, lakes, waterfalls, and ...... The ten-meter-tall statue of the god Dorne.

The beautiful Castle of Joy, the spectacular city on the lake, is like a fairyland, like a dream.

Stone man of Terra, I have come, both by order of the Emperor and by the call of the four gods.

What will you do to me?
