Chapter Ninety-Five: Back to the Canyon
The towering Sacred Sword Peak stands proudly, and the mysterious Sauron Canyon under the Holy Sword Peak is foggy all year round.
The gray mist surged, and the little mercenary of the year stepped into the valley again after nine years.
Nine years is nothing more than an weathered crack on a certain rock for the Holy Sword Peak that has stood for 10,000 years. Nine years of time for the Terran boy, but he has tasted almost all the hardships in the world.
The boy who had escaped by chance came back, and although it was still not enough to uncover all the plots, he also killed all the enemies who participated in the matter.
The canyon is overgrown with grass and strange rocks, broken armor, blades, and dry bones are scattered among the grass and rocks, and everything in the canyon seems to have changed compared to nine years ago.
Arthur walked to the location where Keynes, Adeline, Angus, and Ilaya died in the battle with his impression, not to mention the bones, and even the traces of the battle have long been erased by time and wind and rain.
Arthur had originally wanted to collect the elf's corpse and send him back to the elven mother tree wheel to return to the roots, but now everything is empty.
Arthur piled four stone piles at the place where the four died in battle, inserted three sticks of incense, took out the large jar of wine that had been prepared, and when the first bowl of wine was spilled, tears could not help but flow out.
Arthur was still trying to control his tears at first, but when he drank a sip of wine, he finally couldn't help crying. First he sobbed quietly, and then he cried unabashedly, sad and aggrieved like a child.
The boy doesn't flick when he has tears, just because he hasn't reached the sad place.
Joan, Huey, Arya and the others stood behind Arthur, they had never seen Arthur shed tears for so many years, let alone crying so sadly, at this moment they really understood how much pressure and burden Arthur had borne over the years?
Affected by the emotion, Aretha and Arya were also sobbing quietly, and Joan and ToruΕ's eyes were red one by one.
Gru, the goblin, also emerged from the cloak behind Arthur, hugged his legs and cried loudly.
As soon as Gru cried, Arthur pulled Arthur out of his sad mood, Arthur wiped the tears from his face, and looked curiously at the ice goblin who was crying extremely sadly, "What are you crying about?"
Arthur's question embarrassed Gru, and he slipped back into the cloak behind him.
After adjusting his mood, Arthur looked at the people behind him with some apologies, "Let you see the smile." β
Aretha stepped forward and rubbed Arthur's head caressingly, "It's good to cry, there are more important things waiting for you to do later." β
Arthur nodded solemnly, "Let's go into the canyon and go directly to the source to see, what is the reason for the formation of such a thing as crystal sand?"
Everyone packed up their things and prepared to go deep into the canyon, but Arthur took the initiative to walk in front of Meimi, "Meimi, it's too dangerous inside, you go back first, don't follow us inside." β
Meimi was stunned, but Arya ran over, "Why did you suddenly leave Meimi, isn't it more dangerous to let her go back by herself?"
Arthur didn't answer Arya, still looking directly at Memmy, "Arya's a good girl, I don't want her to be hurt, it's best for you and her to leave now." β
"What the hell do you mean, Arthur?" said Arya, with a rare hint of anger in her tone.
Tears welled up in Meimi's eyes, and she suddenly stepped forward to take Arya's hand, "I'm sorry, Arya, I was forced, forgive me, you must be careful!"
After saying that, Meimi turned around and ran, but only ran a few steps before suddenly turning around, "It's so good that you live like this now, I really envy you!" After saying that, he jumped straight into the turbulent Donne River next to him.
Arya froze in place, and it took a long time for her to wake up from her extreme shock and grief. She easily guessed the reason, but looked at Arthur with an angry gaze, "When did you find out?"
"After entering the mountains. β
"Then why didn't you tell me?"
"I'm afraid that you will be sad and can't accept it, so I want to leave her a way out and let her leave with dignity, but I didn't expect things to be like this. Arthur was also full of bitterness and helplessness.
Her former best friend had left in such a way, and Arya felt as if she had suddenly lost her soul, and she knew that she shouldn't blame Arthur, but who had caused all this?
"We've all lost the most important person in our lives, and someone has to pay for it!" Arthur stepped forward and grabbed Arya's shoulders and walked side by side into the canyon, into the gray mist......
......
In Sauron Canyon, a group of hunters in hunting clothes stopped outside the valley mouth.
"The light magic mark is broken here, and it looks like they're in the canyon. β
"How did they choose such a ghost place, whether it is a warrior or a magician, after entering the canyon, the combat power will be seriously affected. A woman with a sword on her back in the demon hunting group muttered in a low voice.
"Do you want to follow up?" said Pastor Bright asked the hunting man with a smirk.
"There's no need, you can mark the location of the Holy Maiden, there has been only one way to the foot of the Holy Sword Peak for thousands of years. β
"Are you scared too, don't you need to be more cautious in a place like this?" asked Pastor Bright, as if deliberately making things difficult.
"If we really follow up, due to the chaotic aura inside, I'm afraid we won't be able to release the magic position. Also, I'm worried that they're going to that secret. β
The inexplicable words of the hunter made everyone dare not talk about this matter anymore.
......
Under the Holy Sword Peak, strange rocks stand tall and the ground is uneven.
This was once an ancient battlefield, the huge pit was bombarded by fighting spirit, the long earth crack was once split by a sword, and the huge boulders were meteorites that fell from the sky.
A little light suddenly flashed under a boulder, and there was a little light in the distance, and it was in such an abandoned ancient battlefield that there was always a little bit of light flickering intermittently from time to time.
If there was a great magician who was skilled in the magic circle standing in the air, connecting these flickering points of light together, it would be faintly a huge magic array covering the entire battlefield. Moreover, this magic array was still in a half-running state, and when all the points of light flashed once, a faint wave of light swept across the battlefield.
When the light wave swept by, many small crystals fell into the magic circle, and then gradually disappeared, and this magic array could repair itself!
A small amount of crystalline sand fell into the Donne River, which flowed from the battlefield, and washed down with the rushing water.
In mid-air, Grand Magician Serenda was stunned by the sight in front of him, he had studied magic circles all his life, but he had never seen such a strange magic array.
Thawing from her shock, Serenda continued to fly towards the center of the battlefield, which should be the heart of this magic array based on the entire battlefield.
In the heart of the magic array, there is a huge mission waiting for him to complete......
