Chapter 155: The Gray Grail

It's nightfall. Overhead clouds obscured the few stars in the sky, and in front of several large tents on the shores of Lake Naron, only a campfire was still releasing the last faint light.

Prince Marcus, who had been tossing all afternoon, had already fallen asleep exhaustively in the wide tent, leaving only Qi Lang to suffer outside. Felix assigned him the role of a janitor, who had to stay at the door all night and be responsible for guarding the perimeter. This is a drudger, Qi Lang has to endure the intermittent snoring inside, and he has to spend a lot of effort to drive away those palm-sized Aedes multiplei mosquitoes, and he has little time to rest.

But Qi Lang really can't take a break now. Igru revealed his worries during the day, and that also caused Qi Lang to pay great attention to it, because the wolf clan has always been accompanied by danger, and they have an unimaginable ability to perceive the danger in the shadows, if Iglu starts to show uneasiness, how can Qi Lang let his guard down.

On the other hand, a new trouble arose - Qi Lang's necklace.

The wolf tooth necklace had been silent for a long time, and after the wolf tooth in the middle had completely turned red, it had always been steady, and there had never been any change. But since Qi Lang followed Marcus on his journey, he noticed that the wolf tooth on the far right had changed a little.

It's starting to turn gray.

Qi Lang had carefully wiped it, and it was definitely not caused by ordinary smudges, but a change in quality from the inside out. Just like when the wolf tooth first turned red, its changes were so subtle that Qi Lang could barely realize that it was changing color if he didn't look closely. But after the experience of the previous time, Qi Lang now every time he picked up the necklace, he would seriously recall the six puzzles and repeatedly compare the changes of the wolf's teeth. And when he noticed that the wolf tooth was starting to turn into this unsavory color, he immediately realized that this might not be a good sign!

In the dim light of the fire, Qi Lang once again held the pendant in front of him.

It was indeed turning gray, and its color was getting heavier day by day, and as the momentum continued, it would soon become as black and shiny as black stone. Qi Lang guessed that this mystery must have flashed in his mind, and although he did not pay attention to it at the time, the Holy Grail had been stimulated and began to drink the wine on his own.

But fine wines are often beautiful and attractive colours, and what does this dark hue mean right now?

"The ghost of the devil's frustration, the holy sword can cleanse the soul, the dragon's mysterious cave, the mind will splice the beautiful scenery, the flow can heal the pain, and the ten will hold the stars......" Qi Lang silently recited the ancient nursery rhyme in his mind, except for the third sentence he had cracked, the remaining five were still unresolved, and according to the order of the six wolf teeth, this gray wolf tooth was probably the corresponding first sentence.

Of course, although the string that holds these six wolf teeth together is unusually strong, it is possible that it has been broken, and perhaps their order has long been disrupted. However, although that possibility exists, it is still relatively small after all, and he can put the first puzzle on it first, and if he really can't find the answer, he will analyze it in another sentence.

The Devil's Shadow of Depression......

The meaning of the riddle itself is difficult to understand. According to Owu, Credon is a believer in the devil, and they are loyal followers of the devil, who have made a deal with the evil devil with their souls or precious things on their bodies......

It doesn't make sense!

Guessing along these lines, it is obvious that he has gone astray, because Credon does not frighten the devil, and what about the "phantom", what shadow can those evil devil believers make to worry their masters?

Qi Lang had secretly conjectured during this time that he had asked Iglu for help more than once, but the snow wolf was obviously a slacker who cherished brain cells, and he was never interested in the puzzle game. And Igru had seen the six pendants, and he recognized them at a glance as coming from the mouths of his kind, and the disgust of the sorrow had long since made him shy away.

The current situation is indeed quite a headache for Qi Lang, seeing the wine being poured into the Holy Grail little by little, but he, the master, has never been able to do it, and the eagerness can be imagined. Qi Lang knew the effect of those wolf fangs, because he had felt the power contained in them, just like the Holy Grail of courage, since it was filled, it would inject a warm current into Qi Lang's chest at the most dangerous moment, so that he was no longer cowardly, and helped him use courage to stimulate the strength in his body. Although Qi Lang couldn't tell how powerful that power was for the time being, in his previous adventures, he had defeated the strong with the weak on several occasions, turning the danger into a disaster, and in addition to some luck factors, it is estimated that the role of these Holy Grails cannot be underestimated.

These six pendants are obviously a treasure mountain, which hides a huge wealth that people all over the world envy, but if Qi Lang can't solve those six puzzles, it is equivalent to letting that treasure mountain be barren in the cold and summer, how can that feeling of destroying the heavens not make him feel regretful?

Sometimes, Qi Lang even wanted to raise the weapon in his hand and smash the wolf teeth one by one to see if there was a small note hidden inside, or a relevant instruction manual, like this, he was almost driven crazy.

Just as Qi Lang was discouraged and stuffed the pendant back into his collar, he suddenly noticed that the snoring in the tent had weakened, and although it had not completely stopped, the source of the sound had begun to moveβ€”in the direction of the door!

There is a case!

Qi Lang turned sideways all of a sudden, and at the same time pressed his hand on the hilt of the Moon Cicada Sword.

The curtain was quietly lifted, and Prince Marcus poked out his chubby head, and while maintaining the rhythm of snoring, he whispered, "Sergeant Qi Lang, you didn't sleep, did you?"

It turned out that he was playing tricks himself! Qi Lang really wanted to knock him on the head with the hilt of his sword, but he still replied respectfully: "I didn't sleep, Your Highness, I am faithfully guarding outside your door." ”

"You're so dutiful, I didn't misread you. Marcus laughed. He slowly straightened up, and while looking around, he whispered mysteriously, "Do you have a way to get me out?" Go to the lake, and don't alarm anyone. ”

Qi Lang pressed his temples with some annoyance: "Don't tell me you want to find those beautiful big birds at this time." They're not there, Your Highness the Prince, they've flown away, and they won't fly back until winter returns. ”

The prince "shh And I didn't want to look for them, I just wanted to walk around the lake...... The jade bracelet that old Henry gave me seems to have fallen to the lake, and I have to look for it. ”

"That's a big deal, I should call the whole team up and get them to help. When Qi Lang replied like this, he clearly expressed his skepticism.

"No!" the prince eagerly rejected Qi Lang's suggestion, and at the same time rolled his eyes, "...... I still want to pee on the lake, I don't want so many people watching. ”

"So you left this honor to me?" Qi Lang continued to ask quietly.

"Of course, you can't get too close to me......" The prince straightened up as if he had suddenly come to his senses, "This is an order, Sergeant Qi Lang, do you want to disobey Prince Marcus's will?"

Qi Lang had already guessed that these two people were going out to make ghosts again, and the snow wolf brother who had almost caused Igru to suffer a lot the previous time, and he didn't know what tricks he was going to play this time, should it be the turn of those fiery birds to be unlucky? Qi Lang really regretted it, he should have knocked Marcus unconscious just now, he missed that opportunity, and now he has no way to refuse the prince's request head-on.

During the daytime patrol, the guards almost sealed off the entire shore of Lake Nalong, there should be no outsiders entering here for the time being, Marcus's safety should still be guaranteed, and Qi Lang could not find any excuse to refuse the prince's request. So, he still showed a submissive attitude, obediently led Prince Marcus around a few secret sentinels, and came to the shore of Lake Naron with a deep and shallow foot.

Obviously, Marcus didn't drop any valuables, as he didn't even bring a torch, and he didn't keep his eyes on the mud for a second - but he did pee into it, making the water more alkaline.

But it was all a pretense, and his only task here was to take out those little golden marbles, and with every few steps, he threw up his thick arm and threw one far away. And when he completed this extremely vicious task, Qi Lang was no longer shy about it, as if the yellow-skinned soldier behind him was a henchman who knew Felix even closer.

"Solved. Marcus finally completed his task, clapped his hands excitedly, and beckoned to Qi Lang, "Let's retreat quickly, don't be discovered." ”

"Okay, Your Highness, beware of slippery roads. Qi Lang smiled faintly and respectfully accompanied Marcus as he walked back - in fact, at this moment, he had already realized that in the darkness a few hundred meters away, there were several powerful mysterious visitors hiding!
