Chapter 14: The Old Capital of Galle
Mena didn't know where such a person with no common sense came from.
The port is not a town sealed by the order of the tower, and the reputation and status of the Duke Sorcerer should be heard of by all citizens of the Empire, even the frontiers.
Not to mention being an outpost in the era of the Great Expedition... The port, where there are many legends handed down from ancestors.
You can even find the biography of the Grand Duke in some old houses.
However, Helo's ignorant appearance did not look like he was pretending, which really annoyed him.
Helo spread his hands and showed his innocence:
"Don't look at me like that, you know, I've always been a fish-man slave, I'm lucky to have grown up alive and well, you wouldn't expect that group of fish-people who hugged the deep sea to tell me about the great exploits of the Imperial Warlocks!?"
Mena wiped away the blood from the corners of her mouth, calmed her boiling soul energy, and once again activated the cleansing effect of the silver robe.
complained to Helo:
"Hell, don't forget which tower I came from, I had already asked an old fishman when you were taken to shore, and you children were bought through slave ships in the harbor."
"Hey, hey..."
Helo could only smile awkwardly at this, the source of his life experience, his memory was vague, and the only thing he remembered was that he stayed in the port for a long, long time.
As for why the information that Mena forced to ask was different from what his aunt told him...
Maybe it's because my aunt is the main person in charge, after all, she is so insidious, and she can't lie to her own people.
Why is it not stained with the mark of the deep sea, he is even more unclear, this picture is amazing?
It's better to keep this secret buried forever, even the Grand Duke has never solved the puzzle, and if it is known to others, it must not be used as an experimental subject... Disembowelment study.
"Let's take a rest first, the soul suppression that crosses such a large rank is too serious, Entu is still very scared, and the whereabouts of [Vortex Canal] are uncertain, and if you go now, you may encounter it in front.
The Grand Sorcerer of the War Tower, whose soul was buried in the endless deep sea during the Great Expedition, chose to cut his soul and liberate the complete body of the [Vortex].
But for some reason, the [Whirlpool] did not follow the established procedure of the Grand Duke, but wandered in the southern part of the empire, fortunately its underlying procedures did not allow it to approach the town without permission.
If you encounter it later, remember to conceal your presence, it is only hostile to high-density souls.
If you keep tossing just now, I'll be found by it, and we'll all die! ”
Helo opened his mouth, not understanding for a while:
"Procedure? Isn't it a soul beast? ”
Mena patted his head, he forgot that Helo, a child who knew nothing, did not know a lot of common sense.
"This is the greatness of that Grand Duke, in the era of the Great Expedition, he gathered all the resources of the [War Tower] and artificially created this supernatural soul beast.
It's not unusual that there are even some towers that involve the realm of soul machinery. ”
"Flesh and blood are weak, and the machine is ascending?"
That Grand Duke can take this path is really good, who dares to put his soul in this direction.
If his own awakened soul circuit is concerned, he can really think about it.
Look at that war beast, the agitated aura alone makes the low-level sorcerer unable to parry.
Helo has almost lost his phobia of giant objects for the past few days, and he has seen a total of three soul beasts.
One end is bigger than the other!
The smallest scorpions are both two stories tall.
It is estimated that the smallest soul beast will be seen in the future, and only the octopus cubs hatched from the eggs will be seen.
"Sleep, I'll have to go tomorrow."
Mena greeted and put his silver robe on his body and began to rest, while Herro looked at the wide path plowed out by the [whirlpool], sat for a while, and then turned his head and began to rest.
.......
The old capital of Galle, before dawn, sleeps in a dream of prosperity and peace.
With the exception of the Black Forest port, it is the southernmost city in the true sense of the word.
At the head of the towering gray and white city wall, a row of female statues are lined up, and the faces of each statue are hidden under the hood, revealing only a mysterious and treacherous smile and a delicate body.
"This is Galle, and the traces of history can really be seen."
Helo was draped in a silver robe and looked out at the magnificent city walls.
The robe was given to him by Mena when he was near the town.
Although Mena didn't say anything, he could still see the meaning in Mena's eyes...
Wear such rags and follow him, he can't afford to lose this person!
Many border cities are not guarded by high-ranking magicians, and Mena does not need to take out the tower credentials to prove his identity.
With a casual soul trick, the doorman put them in, and he didn't even have to pay the door fee.
As for what rank Mena is, whether he belongs to the Imperial Tower camp or the Chaos and Evil camp.
They can't control it, and they don't dare to manage it.
As soon as he entered the town, Mena led Hero to a prominent building.
A pure white baroque dome, a quiet and warm garden, and an apple tree in full bloom at the entrance.
She was greeted by a sorceress from the Scarlet Tower, and while Herlo was being treated, she caught a glimpse of Mena and her ambiguous eye contact.
Dare to love is still an old friend, Helo is a little helpless.
His wounds had almost healed after last night's rest, and the last of his scars had dissipated.
While Mena and the sorceress didn't know where to go, Helo also took the opportunity to borrow a room to clean herself.
"Sure enough, I'm still very handsome when it's clean, and it would be better if I ate a little fatter!"
Now Helo's appearance is very clean and neat, but the eyes are still very deep, and there is even a little dark and evil feeling when he stays in the shadows.
No, I have to become a sunny boy in the future, and now I think I'm a villain when I see it like this.
I found a plain man's robe, put on a silver robe, and walked out of the room and began to wander through the garden.
Not to mention, the texture of this robe is so good, it really makes him a little loved.
After being hungry all night and wandering around and not finding anything to eat, Helo picked an apple at the door and took a big bite, the sweet juice instantly moistened his throat and was exceptionally sweet.
After eating the fruit two or three times, Helo reached out and wiped his mouth casually with his sleeve, and he looked up to see Mena walking out, with a look of reluctance on his face.
"You're too fast."
After a night of experience, Herlo's strangeness to Mena disappeared a lot, maybe this is the friendship between men, even Mena doesn't care about the things between titles, his personality and temper are so quirky.
"Go, go, what do children know about the baron's affairs, I leave this tenderness for the future. It's gone, it's time to go back after being out for so long. ”
Even though Heloh clutched his stomach and told him he was hungry, he didn't waste any time eating.
Take Helo through the streets and alleys of Galle, turning around.
"Are you looking for something?"
Mena did not answer him.
The two find a dead end.
At the end of the alley lay two stone beasts on the ground, just like the stone lions that guarded the gate in ancient times, but they were much smaller, and Helo felt that he could kick them away with a single kick.
Mena pulled out a bag of coins and sprinkled them in front of the beast's mouth, and the coins shimmered blue on the ground.
Pointing to the little beast, he said to Helo:
"The territory of the empire is vast, and the towns are far apart, so the sorcerers will use the [door] to walk the empire, and the previous chess pieces are disposable, even if it is a one-way round-trip ticket, the distance that can be teleported is not far.
And this kind of mechanism hidden in the shadows of the town can pass anywhere in the empire, as long as you set an anchor point, according to the length of the distance, pay enough soul coins, you can teleport many times over long distances. ”
As the two small beasts devoured the soul coins on the ground, a huge target formed between the two that occupied the entire wall.
