Chapter 57: The Coffin (Part 1)

There was no word all night, and when the sky outside began to brighten, there was still not a single ray of light in the cell. There was a slight movement in the distance, and Lanaya couldn't sleep all night, but she didn't react much after hearing the voice, after all, for her, no matter who it was, it would definitely not be a good thing.

There were more than twenty people who came, and sixteen of them were dressed in solid leather armor, and several key parts were protected by armor, and they looked like they were fully armed. Behind them were several men dressed in mage's robes, their black cloaks with low brims so that they could not see their eyes. The leader said lightly: "It's time for you to hit the road today." ”

The young prisoner had already sat up at some point, and when he heard this, he was stunned for a moment, and then said to himself: "This day has finally come." ”

The emaciated prisoner trembled even more at the sight of so many people standing in front of the cell door, as if he was about to disperse.

The middle-aged prisoner stood up with a forced smile, "I really don't know what will happen to my daughter who is far away in a foreign country if she knows that I am dead." Ay...... There are all kinds of medicine in the pharmacy, but there is no regret medicine. I really want to live all over again now. ”

Lanaya didn't say a word, she was the most reticent of the four, and she didn't say a word of nonsense except for some questions the caretaker asked her.

The cells of the four men were opened one after another, and each of them was immediately held by two men in leather armor, who advanced almost half-bent. Then, two other men in leather armor followed with spears in their hands. In this way, they were guarded by four people, and followed the people in front out of this place where there was no light of day.

"I don't want to die yet...... I beg you to spare me!" cried the emaciated prisoner in a low voice.

But no one heeded his feeble pleas.

It's a path to death.

At this time, there were not a few pedestrians on the streets of Wind Feather City. Seeing such a formation, passers-by turned their heads one after another. The execution of prisoners here is semi-public, and they do not actively publicize the crime and punishment of a felon, nor do they deliberately prevent curious people from following and watching. However, onlookers and interference are two completely different concepts, and at the scene of the execution, there are multiple soldiers guarding the scene, and no idle people will be allowed to approach the scene even a step.

It was cloudy, and the wind was a little cool, blowing everyone's faces in a pale hue.

The criminals' heads were buried low, but Lanaya's long, loose gray-blue hair was particularly eye-catching, attracting most people's attention. On the way, there were a few people who had witnessed what had happened five days ago, and they had a little impression of Lanaya, and their expressions were different at this time, and most of them had a little regret, after all, she was still a child.

Ai Rou was hidden in the crowd, her eyes couldn't bear to cast this way, her lips pursed slightly, she didn't know what was thinking in her heart at this moment.

Rosen was on the other side, and he almost rushed when he saw Lanaya, but was stopped by Ted.

He wanted to call her, but he couldn't do it anyway. His mouth hung weakly, and he felt as if something had collapsed in his heart.

You look back at me.

Rosen thought so, and in a trance he seemed to really see Lanaya slowly turn around and smile at him. He wanted to smile back, but when he found that the smile was choked by a sour tear, his vision gradually blurred, and the clear picture blurred again, he was desperate to find that Lanaya had not looked back at all.

This tear did not fall after all, it was restrained by the closed eye sockets, and then the child looked up and squinted at the sky, and the tears were dried by the wind, as if they had never existed.

Lanaya's back vanished.

But Rosen knew that she must still be ahead of the heavily guarded guards. The left foot took an uncontrollable step in the direction she had disappeared, followed by the second step of the right foot, as if enchanted.

"Don't go!" Ted shouted softly, a hand grabbing Lawson's shoulder and pulling him back hard.

Rosen looked blankly at the men who had come with him. Zhuo Weini kept comforting Grinter, who was already crying, and could only shake her head lightly when she saw Rosen's gaze at her.

Where the hell are you, Arrow God, have you forgotten your oath in the tavern?

Lanaya laughed at herself in her heart, she no longer had the strength to really pull the corners of her mouth to laugh at herself, she had thought that she would be killed, but she didn't expect that someone else would end her life in this way.

It was not an honorable thing that she never looked up the whole time. Her feet were no longer strong, and if it weren't for the two of them holding her arms, she would have collapsed.

It's been a long road, but Ranaya doesn't know it. A dying person, why should he care about how long he can live?

They had already walked out of Wind Feather City and came to a forbidden place. Surrounded by towering green hills, this is a shady place at the foot of the valley. The gentle circular stone steps lead downwards and are rounded at the bottom. There are many broken stone pillars on the flat ground, and a few are intact, but the top has been eroded by years of wind and sand, and has long lost its lustre.

The Arrow God had been on the roof of the road at the beginning, and he followed without stopping, when he completely ignored the tight guards on the periphery, soared into the air, and landed on the highest stone pillar. From his vantage point, he can see a panoramic view of the circular flat ground below. Some of the stone pillars have broken halfway up the waist, and the landscape in the whole terrain looks very irregular, not at all man-made, but a bit like the remains of the Middle Ages.

In a more conspicuous place, there are several stone pillars side by side, and at the foot of the stone pillars stand something shaped like a coffin. This kind of thing is called a spirit coffin, and the spirit coffin punishment is the most common way to execute criminals in the pan-continent. The convict is locked in it, put on several layers of heavy chains, and fasten it to a stone pillar, and then the black-robed magician in charge of the execution will cast a psionic spell to strip the soul and body of the convict inside the coffin.

This is the most humane punishment, and if the crime were more serious, it would definitely not allow the criminal to die so comfortably.

The first time Lanaya looked up, she saw the bottomless coffin.

She could smell a rotten breath emanating from the coffin, but she didn't even have the strength to frown.

Lanaya inadvertently felt the young prisoner's gaze, and he said softly, "Don't be afraid...... It won't hurt. In his heart, even if this little girl is guilty, it is enough to deserve pity.

The skinny prisoner's legs trembled uncontrollably, and there was a look of horror in his eyes. The middle-aged prisoner sighed and took one last look at the overcast sky.

Then, the man behind him pushed the four criminals inside.

A black fear suddenly collapsed and descended in front of him, cutting off the last ray of light that he could see in his life.

It was as if he had been pushed into the abyss.

The arrow god frowned, wanting to destroy this layer of spirit coffin and then hold Lanaya into the air, it would not be difficult for him, but it would definitely hurt Lanaya, and it could even be said that it would ...... The chances of Lanaya surviving his blow are almost zero. Since he didn't want the other criminals to see that he was clearly here to save people, he could only wait until they were all put in the coffin. But if you don't, there's no other way.

The four black-robed mages had already stood, their black cloaks fluttering in the wind like silent funeral songs. They were waiting for orders.

The man standing behind the four black-robed mages said in a voice that was not loud but could resound throughout the venue, "Execution—"

As if they had been trained, the four black-robed magicians clasped their hands together at the same time, put them under their chins, buried their heads in their heads, and said in unison:

"May your sinful souls be purified. ”

Lanaya had closed her eyes, and even if she did, she could only see darkness, and it would never be possible to get out of here again!

A warm psionic energy enveloped the whole body, and a little red light fell on the retina through the eyelids. Lanaya only felt that the strength of her whole body was slowly fading, and the connection between her consciousness and the outside world was weakening, and she felt like she was about to fall into a dream.

It seems that she really has to thank these people for dying in such a comfortable way.

But a force was tugging at her soul, making her struggle at the boundary between reality and dreams.

The back of her right hand was inexplicably hot.

"You can't die...... a voice suddenly rang out in Lanaya's mental space. At this moment, the symbol of the Eye of the Templar on the back of her right hand was fully revealed, as hot as a hot soldering iron print pressed down.

The arrow god made a move and finally made a move. A dark purple beam of light pierced through the sky, slicing through the sky.

What is the concept of dark purple? There are five realms of spiritual ability, which are the first glimpse, the small success, the mind, the incarnation, and the extreme. Its colors correspond to light pink, light purple, purple, fuchsia, and dark purple. The spiritual energy of the Extreme Creation Realm can definitely split mountains and lands, and it is currently the strongest existence in the world.

However, just before the beam of light was about to touch the coffin, a semicircular light purple barrier shone brightly, blocking the beam of light!

The Arrow God was shocked, but he didn't expect that there was a reason why there was no no-fly enchantment in this kind of place, the spirit coffin ...... You can even block your own attack?!

As soon as Lanaya's eyes flashed with purple light, she realized that her body was floating in a void space. It wasn't pitch black, but there was a slight fluctuating light purple current. The feeling of not having the ground under your feet is very unsettling.

She's dead. This was Lanaya's first judgment.

Silence, all time and space cease to exist, and everything is void.

Lanaya looked down at her hands, and with a thought, the beautiful psionic light burned like flames, and the air around her was brightened.

Lanaya quietly stared at the fateful flame in her hand, and couldn't help but sigh.

Is death meant to stay in this place all the time?
