Chapter 18: Sinai Town
The footsteps of 'Step' and 'Step' are John's footsteps, and Nana can hear the different footsteps of each teammate, and she can now ask questions without looking back.
"It's not a good habit to make a woman wait. What's the catch?"
"Is it snowing?" John said in his first stop: "It's not so much the twin gods as the two stars that are the objects of their worship." ”
"Parasitism and mutual giving, this is the philosophy of this worship. ”
"What did the girl say?"
"Yes, she also told me that when the snow melts, you can see two stars linking the bridge."
Nana didn't really care much about that, but the girl was probably mostly right.
From the temple on the mountainside, they went straight to the top of the mountain, looking down, it was a vast plain, there was a relatively small human civilization in the middle, but to go over there was a river, fortunately here, otherwise they might have to rent a boat, a town that spends 9 months a year in the snow, they came just in time, the river has been frozen, there is no problem to walk directly.
John thought about a lot of questions: "Anyway, that girl ......"
"What? hooked?" Nana looked at John in a slightly provocative tone.
"No, she's lying, you know. ”
"I know she says it's a sacred place for their people, but the tavern owner told me that they only go up the mountain when the snow melts. "It's true that the tavernkeeper didn't have to lie to John about them, but this girl didn't have to.
"From the moment I looked at the bear with tracking magic, it had a feeling that suffocated me, I couldn't remember it, and I thought about it a lot. Now that I think about it, I really thought too much. ”
"Yes, the bear was given magic, it didn't choose to hibernate in such a cold and snowy place, and the hole wasn't warm enough to make it give up its nature. ”
"There was already an axe in her basket, and she wanted to cut off the chains. I don't know why, but it's not the purpose of our trip, so we don't have to care. ”
It is estimated that about an hour or so has passed at 12 o'clock at noon, Nana now feels that she is very hungry, it is indeed easy to consume energy in the snow, she took out the dry food from the luggage and began to eat, it is about a few hours away from the town, Nana does not want to starve herself, and she can start eating dinner when she arrives in the town.
"It's Sinai Town ahead, where our next formation will be. ”
"Yes. ”
Nana wants a bow, and as a hunter, she doesn't have a bow that has too much of a card, and she can make one herself. However, his own craftsmanship can't match the craftsmanship of the Okme Alliance, Fren's 'Star' and her 'Silver Moon' are from there, and I'll ask for it next time I apply for supplies, now I will collect this wish first, Nana thought silently in her heart, I don't know what kind of eyes I will receive if I send the broken knife back, my own exclusive alchemist must want to kill herself.
They were stepping across the ice, John was the first to step on it, the ice did support the weight of the human body, and he could pass with confidence, he beckoned to Nana to make sure it was okay, and Nana followed.
"You little guy behind you, you don't want to bring it back to Kritong, do you?"
"Of course, isn't it good to study it?"
"You know that your bioprobe doesn't work on it, so you should know where it came from, right?"
John never finishes his work, and Nana thinks it's just because she doesn't know the creature that causes her magic to fail, and he continues, "A hellish creature that straddles into the human realm by mistake may be common in hell. ”
"The gates of hell have been closed for a long time, and it can be said that hell is going to open again. ”
"This opening is like heaven, and I don't know if it's friend or foe. ”
The main city of Avein, the largest church in the country. Raphael had them capture a death row inmate, and held a summoning ceremony, through the Holy Light Stone, this stone has many uses, strengthening the Holy Light magic, identifying the purity of the Holy Light, and now, the death row prisoner struggled as hard as he could, as if in pain, white reticulations appeared around the corners of his eyes and gradually expanded, his hands and feet were tied, no matter how he moved, he just spun in circles, he didn't know what the situation was, maybe it was a death sentence, he had done enough damn things.
"Lord Raphael," the condemned man shouted, not knowing when the ropes on his hands and feet had been burned.
"Long time no see, Santania. Raphael looked at him and motioned for him to get up.
"Everyone is looking for you in Heaven, do you need me to inform them?"
Raphael waved his hand and said, "That's fine, now I want you to stop a few mortals, can you do it?"
Without hesitation, Santania replied, "Of course, my lord." ”
These angels are warriors created by heaven, and obedience is the simplest and easiest command. Raphael showed him the way, and it set out on its way west.
"Fren, maybe this warrior can't help you, but your teammates can't, Lisa, I've gradually cracked the secrets in your head, how tough the human soul is, your master can't save you. "The alchemy gas on Raphael's body has been completely cured, and the angels' powerful recovery ability and the use of holy light are the reasons for the strength of their race.
"Give me some more time, and the ships of Heaven will overtake Aviin, and the entire continent will be taken over by Heaven. ”
The snow in Sinai is thick, but the residents here are in the spirit of being a whole, and everyone works together to sweep the snow on both sides of the road to make it easier to pass.
Nana seems to see her hometown here, and it is also a perennial winter and snow, and she and her father hunt and learn together, and providing a certain amount of food for the village is also what their hunters need to do. But he didn't take care of the village since he disappeared, and he was bent on finding him.
"Nana...... Nana!" John called her.
"What?"
"Walked over! Come back" They have already passed by the hotel, and now they need to devote themselves to their work, they can't be distracted, first of all, they need to find this place and the previous one Byrne represents life, here represents the death formation, and the last one is grinding, which is both the process.
"Then this is the place for you, little one, if I guess about the same, there will be a land of bones buried here, left behind by the ancient battlefields, with the broken wings of angels and the bones of hellish creatures. Nana touched the cage on her back, and the little guy was still very grumpy and almost bit Nana.
"The question is how to find it?" John asked a very important question, how long will it be delayed this time, but the formation is simple, it only takes two hours to complete.
"I believe there is more than one cave here, and we have experienced on the way, and there are fewer caves to find?"
No matter how much people hide and hide, death is death, and no more points are given for a second. But when they walked into the hotel, someone was telling a story that sounded like a heroic tale of the past, and by the time Nana reacted, John had already rushed over, an avid history buff, a mystic researcher, who didn't want to miss a clue.
Nana had no choice but to walk to the counter by herself: "Boss, one room, two people." "It's not the first time two people have lived together, but I'm used to all kinds of bad habits on the other side, and I don't care much about the other person's opinion at all.
Nana took the key and patted John on the shoulder, informing him where the room was, and coming back as soon as possible, they needed to make plans for this place as soon as possible, but before that they needed to take a bath, and the boss said that there was a bathhouse.
When Nana returned to the room, John had already come in, presumably by picking the lock, and it was no surprise that he felt that the lack of a lock had bothered him.
"You actually only booked a room, I just pried to the next door, fortunately I didn't find me on the other side, scared me to death. ”
"Didn't I tell you my room number?"
"I thought you said your room number just so I could get the key......"
"Is there any need for you to pick the lock?" Nana was a little angry at this time, and her tone was a little slow.
"Didn't you come back then? Forget it, it's okay for us to stay in one room. It's time to save money. ”
John sat down on the bed, took his luggage off his back, leaned his rapier against the head of the bed, and took out some unnecessary things, some books and diaries. It was all a sample of his myths and stories, and he opened a new notebook again, and began to record today's temple and the story just now, and also deliberately drew a few special symbols, which Nana knew, were the symbols of the twin gods, the symbols engraved on the pillars of the cave.
"You're not going to wash yourself, you've been on the road all day," Nana sat down next to John, looking at him.
"I'll go, I'll go when I'm done. "John had nothing but myths and stories in mind.
"Really" Nana walked over to her luggage, took out the cage, and observed the creature inside, she hadn't named it yet, she thought she hadn't hunted in a long time, and she needed an animal companion, but she wasn't ready yet.
The work here has not been completed, and my father has not yet been found, so how can I leave it all down and return to my hometown alone. She wasn't ready.
John looked at Nana, who was teasing the pet just after bathing, why did she have to tie her head with a ball after washing, he knew that Nana's hair was dry, but he did care.
"Sure enough, it's the most beautiful thing to spread out. John didn't know what he was sighing.
"Huh?" Nana looked back at John, who was looking at the ceiling.
"Nothing, I went to take a shower. John put away his notebook and put it next to the bedside table, tomorrow he will look for the ancient battlefield, it is best to rest early, he is already very tired today.
'Click,' John closed the door and fixed the lock. 'Huh~Huh' The sound of wings waving in the air, Santania has just flown over the town of Baine, a strong breath of life, what activities are humans holding here?
Byrne didn't know Raphael's plan, he only knew how to obey orders, and his orders were only to kill the two humans and the rest of the interferers.
Continue to fly like West......
"Whew~ It's so cool" John sighed again, there are really countless emotions today, probably other days will not be like today.
He had just finished taking a shower and wanted to go directly to his room to sleep, but when he passed by the living room, he heard a familiar voice, it was Swana.
"Hi, Miss Swana. John walked over to say hello, this girl may have something he wants to know, the lifeline of her and the bear, she may be a victim or a beneficiary of the sacrifice.
Swana turned to look at John, but turned away again.
John looked down and saw that he was still naked, and his clothes were still on his hands.
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm here to thank you, you answered a lot of my questions. John said as he put on his clothes.
"I haven't asked for your name yet, I only know Miss Nana's. Swana turned to look at John again.
"Just call me John. ”
"Okay, Mr. John, don't thank me too much, I just saw that you had been there for a long time, and went up to point you out. Swana smiled, looking like she was just a little girl who hadn't walked long in the journey of her life, and she was simply trustworthy.
"No, your help is of great significance, I don't know how long I'll be imprisoned there?
"This is my home, and the owner here is my father. She smiled and answered John's question as kindly as she could.
"Yes, then I'm going to take care of you today, thank you again. John reached out to shake her hand.
Swana took John's hand, shook it and said, "No, I am, please take care of me in the next few days, where is Miss Nana now, can I say hello to her?"
"She's probably asleep. ”
"Then please say hello to me. ”
"No problem. A few simple questions, still can't ask more, she might be suspicious, take your time, John was about to walk back to the room, Swana stopped him.
"Mr. John, how about we have breakfast together tomorrow? ”
"Well, okay, see you tomorrow. ”
When she returned to her room, Nana was already asleep on her bed, and John himself had to sleep on the bed.
John lay on the bed and thought that light magic was different from the Holy Light, that the Holy Light was pure, and that the light, according to the psychological analysis, was the last thing you wanted to see. Nana knew the users of light magic, but she didn't know how it worked.
Today he was scared, and if he was mentioned by Nana then a little more would have drawn him out. The one he didn't want to face.
I gradually thought about it...... and fell asleep unconsciously. Perhaps this death will lead him out, and John wants to kill the other self completely, using that death formation.
