Chapter Seventy-Four: The Power That Melts Everything
With such a commotion outside, the guards of Mondstadt naturally poured out.
After a while, they were lined up neatly outside the city.
The head of the Qin troupe, who turned back, felt a very headache at this time, and she had already guessed who did this shocking scene.
But she didn't expect that kid to play so big, and looking at the jaw dropping expression on the faces of the rows of Favonius knights in front of her, Jean's head hurt even more.
If the inhabitants of Mondstadt were to know that the responsibility of guarding the city was in the hands of this group of sluggish looking fellows, they would not know what kind of public opinion would arise.
"Alright, close your mouths! Look what you guys look like. Jean's tone was stern.
The knights immediately stood upright.
But the hot wind behind him still made people feel dizzy, and the incomparable heat and light made people think it was noon.
Qin wanted to induce the wind element to remove the heat for everyone, but even the fresh wind that blew out was mixed with a rolling heat wave.
In the end, Jean still gave up, what the hell, how could there be such an unreasonable, just let you investigate, how did you burn the forest?
Jean turned around slowly.
The forest was lit up with white flames that everyone had never seen in their lives.
Tonight's night sky is lit up like day.
Everything around the forest was scorched by the zirconium-white flames, but the strange thing was that the trees and branches that should have been carbonized and turned to ashes when the flames swept past them melted like wax into liquid.
You can even see the brown liquid from the tree trunks mixed with the emerald green liquid of the leaves flowing into the wine lake.
At this point, Jean's mind was full of questions, and many strange things had happened to Mondstadt since the black dragon came.
First, the blacksmith's sword embryo and the lunch on the side were strangely fused together.
And Amber said before, in the Star Picking Cliff, he found a wild boar with wings, a squirrel with antlers, and a fox.
There is also the monster riot that appeared in the Dadaupa Valley before.
The truth is that the beasts are hilichurls that have been pieced together like dolls.
Until now, there has been a white flame that unconditionally melts objects into liquids.
Although Jean is not sure that this white flame is related to Huron's child, it should be eight or nine and ten.
But this strange power.
Only the black dragon should be able to give it to him.
。
Look back into the forest.
Albedo, who was hit by the heat, clung to the trunk of the tree he was leaning on, and at the same time blocked the woman's waist with his feet to prevent her from being blown away by the heat.
Although the heat around him was constantly scorching his eyeballs, he still stubbornly kept his eyes open.
Just because he had never seen the scenery in front of him in his life, I was afraid that even he and the creator of Durin, the mysterious alchemist [Gold], would have to waste a lot of effort to complete such a spectacle, and now he saw this scene in the hands of a 14-year-old boy that was enough to make him jaw-dropping.
As the head of the piano saw before.
Monstrous white flames, flowing earth.
Melting hilichurls, rocks, trees, and everything as far as the eye can see turned into liquid, flowing over the surface of the mire.
After looking at it for a long time, the white flames burning above the canopy seemed to have turned into liquid.
All this is beyond his realization.
He couldn't take his eyes off it.
It is precisely because of what he has seen with his own eyes that as an alchemist, he naturally knows that this kind of melting and merging the power of everything is a temptation that he can't refuse, no, all alchemists, but there is always a voice in his heart reminding him.
Don't get too involved with these two masters and apprentices.
"Hugh, Huron, you're alright." There was a tremor in his tone that he didn't even notice.
The power that this young man has in his hands is probably ......
"Ah, Mr. Albedo, I... Feel... It was very uncomfortable, there was a strange gaze looking at me. ”
Huron froze in place, his tone trembling, he didn't know why, he just felt like crying now, all kinds of chaotic sounds came into his mind and hit his spirit.
Albedo had a vague sense of something unusual.
Place the lady at his feet under the tree he just leaned on.
Dragging his heavy body, he limped to Huron's side.
He stroked the boy's back with his hand.
He could clearly feel that the boy was trembling, as if he was afraid of something.
"Huron, where is that line of sight you are talking about?"
The boy raised his hand and pointed to the large pool of melted hilichurl wreckage in the distance.
"They're calling my name, they know me, the hilichurl language, I can understand, they're looking at me in a strange, I can't tell what it feels like, like the love of the elders for the juniors?"
Huron crouched down, arms folded, completely devoid of the wild posture just now, and now completely frightened child.
How can it be? Albedo's heart swelled up with this sentence, which was ridiculous.
"Are you sure, Huron?" Albedo's tone slowed down unconsciously, Huron's state was not good now, and as time passed, the strange atmosphere around him became more and more intense.
“。” Huron did not answer his question.
The scorching air was as bright as day, but a cold and damp feeling came from the bottom of my heart.
I'm afraid the truth of everything will have to be found in the liquid of the hilichurls.
Albedo limped close to the pool of black liquid formed by the melting of the hilichurls, which were no different from the liquid that had flowed from the death of the oversized hilichurl king before.
But the white flame burning from the canopy above the head refracted on the liquid, but it took on a completely different appearance.
"That's, mouth?" Albedo noticed a small patch of white reflection opening and closing, like a mouth, and it seemed to be saying something.
I lowered my body and put my ears as close as I could, but I didn't hear anything.
Still.
Since there is a mouth, there must be eyes and a nose.
As long as you find these, you should be able to get some information.
So, Albedo mustered up fourteen points of courage and walked into this puddle of probably, possibly, in the black mud of life.
After some searching, as expected, he found it.
Mouth, mouth, mouth.
When he came back to his senses, he found himself standing in the middle of the quagmire waiting for me, and all around him was covered in dense white.
"Mouth."
It was only now, when all the mouths opened together, that Albedo finally knew what Huron's voice was.
It's "Mom".
Huron, who was in the distance, stood up sharply and shouted to Albedo.
