Volume 1 Dream Treading Dust Chapter 31 The Aftermath of the Second Tribulation
Gwendlin's speed was almost at its limit, and even at such a galloping speed, she could still feel a shocking sense of fear looming behind her, as if she was grabbing them both by the back without paying attention.
In the distance, there was a white snowstorm, and the temperature around it dropped to freezing. On his side, Bai Lianzhou's body temperature dropped rapidly, and Gwendlin only felt that his palms were extremely uncomfortable with ice.
The wind shield on her body became weaker and weaker, and in the end, there was only a trace of air currents left, and she had to keep shouting Bai Lianzhou's name to keep him awake as much as possible-
But I couldn't hear a word of reply.
"Bai Lianzhou, you hold on! You can't die!" Gwendrin's voice was swallowed up by the sound of the storm around her for a moment, she quickly threw out the chain in her hand, only to hear the "ding", nailed to the high wall not far away, she finally saw a glimmer of survival, that is the city boundary of Saru Town.
Gwendrin shot a stream of spiritual power downwards with precision, and the two of them catapulted up the wall with this upward force. She could accurately sense the overwhelming spiritual power emanating from behind her, and not only could she easily shatter Monica's body, but she could even destroy a city!
She also knew very well that even the Great Spirit Envoy would have no chance of winning in the face of such a force.
"No ......"
The girl looked at Bai Lianzhou, who was unconscious, and fell into an almost desperate situation in her heart. Before they could stand firm on the top of the high wall, the waves of air surging out from behind them were like a torrent pouring down, pushing the two of them forward violently.
The human body could not withstand such force, and the girl's legs went limp, uncontrollably, and rolled off the high wall, slamming heavily on the ground on the other side.
Thunderous explosions rang out in the air, and dust, sand, and dirty snow swirled and fluttered in the storm, obscuring Gwendrin's vision.
She hugged Bai Lianzhou's body tightly and looked at the road in Saru Town in despair.
The "monsters" in the city still have the meaning of continuing to catch up. She could only mobilize all the spiritual power in her body and continue to run forward.
The dark clouds in the sky flew rapidly backwards, almost without stopping, until they passed four or five passes in the north, and they were a little relieved.
She held Bai Lianzhou's hand tightly. As soon as he took a breath, he looked back at the boy's situation. Fortunately, he didn't let this burden fall behind, but a seriously injured spiritual magician like him had long been weakened and exhausted by the high-speed spiritual power attack.
On weekdays, Gwendrin is surrounded by extremely good genius spiritualists, and it is the first time to bring a newcomer, it is inevitable that he is a little overwhelmed. As a great spirit envoy, Gwendrin is very similar to his own patriarch Yu Ying, his speed is amazing, and his reaction is extremely fast, according to the desperate escape just now, even a high-level spiritual magician may not be able to keep up closely, let alone such an unruly half-astrologer.
"Bai Lianzhou...... Wake up!" Gwendrin anxiously wiped the dirty snow off the boy's face and slapped it on the red-and-purple cheeks. The cold fingers could no longer feel the temperature of the other party, and she suddenly panicked-
"It's over...... I finally brought him out of Saru Town, if something happens, how can I explain it to the Patriarch of Rongmei!" Gwendrin complained to himself, and then muttered again: "How can there be such a stupid person in the world, tomorrow will be clumsy, and he will give me the wind shield......"
"I thank you...... scolded so loudly, I was really afraid that I would die halfway and not wake up......" Bai Lianzhou coughed violently twice and woke up faintly, "I'm your companion anyway, if I don't make some contributions, I'm afraid that you will dislike me for being stupid halfway and leave me alone." β
"If I want to leave you behind, do you still have the life to come here?" Gwendrin punched him in disgust, and said duplicitously: "You should thank the creator god, I didn't think about your life or death, if I can't withstand this speed of escape, you will die if you die, and I will be happy without you!"
"That's why you have a beautiful skin, a knife and a tofu heart, and you have taken me so far desperately, and you have a tone of wanting to murder me. Bai Lianzhou covered his chest and joked: "If you can't beat Monica, just say it, look at you who are afraid of being like this, it is really a loss of the majesty of the great spirit envoy." β
"You...... Which pot is not opened, which pot is mentioned. Gwendrin puffed up, but patiently explained, "You don't understand, it's not Monica that I'm afraid of, it's the thing that killed Monica......"
Bai Lianzhou nodded: "I know, thank you, let me live the rest of my life after the second catastrophe." β
Gwendrin shook his head, and hugged himself with some fear: "Monica is already a very good psychist, her spiritual power is considered the first echelon in the entire royal family, what is it in Saru Town that can crush her directly...... Bai Lianzhou, we are likely to ...... It's just a prey that escaped by chance......"
Bai Lianzhou knew in his heart why Gwendrin was afraid, the situation in Saru Town was a thousand times more serious than he imagined. But he must not say anything dejected in front of the girl, so he only waved his hand disdainfully and said: "Who has such great ability to treat the Great Spirit as a prey, don't lie to me." β
"We can't be so naΓ―ve. Gwendlin angrily suppressed the fear that was about to come out of his chest, stared at him with trembling eyes, and said, "It's because I don't know what the other party is, so I'm extremely scared, do you understand?"
Bai Lianzhou gently stroked Gwendelin's back, and said with a big grin: "What you said does have some truth, but in my opinion, you are the strongest spirit envoy in the empire, Monica has the confidence to argue with you, and he is also a very powerful spirit magician, but now there is a monster that can kill people in the invisible without showing up, and only a person at the patriarch level can do it, but ......"
"But what?"
"Those who are several times stronger than you, there are only a handful in the whole continent, think about it carefully, do the two of you have a common enemy?" Bai Lianzhou didn't answer and asked, "There is a slight difference between the spirit masters, but no matter what, the spirit clan and the royal family both belong to the water element, and they are in the same vein, if this is just a water spirit master killing each other, the logic does not make sense." β
Gwendrin was silent for a moment, and understood what Bai Lianzhou meant by "logic doesn't make sense". In the eyes of him, an outsider, the Violet Empire is constantly fighting internally, and foreign wars are continuous, no matter which camp it is, it is already exhausted, and it is impossible to hide the killing moves.
"If it's not Violet's internal forces, it must be from another empire......" The girl muttered.
Bai Lianzhou held his chin and put on an expression of sudden realization: "Well, in that case, do you think there is anyone in the Gerry Empire who can kill Monica in an instant?"
"Not necessarily, it's hard to say. Gwendrin frowned, "Because the range is too large." Human beings are very small in the spiritual power world, unknown spiritual energy, spiritual magicians, or spirit beasts, as long as they create strong enough spiritual power fluctuations, they can easily take people's lives. β
"Is it possible that the turmoil in Saru Town was man-made, but it triggered some kind of more powerful force that caused this spiritual power fluctuation?"
"What do you mean......" Gwendrin covered his mouth and put it in Bai Lianzhou's ear and said, "Although the human body as a medium cannot form such a powerful spiritual force field, this kind of thing can't be said nonsense!"
Bai Lianzhou saw that the girl had already taken the bait, and immediately asked: "Why? Just you and me, you better explain what you say, otherwise I will be in trouble if I say the wrong thing in front of others in the future......
"Don't you know, in the Violet Empire, there is one thing that cannot be mentioned lightly......" Gwendrin hesitated for a long time, and whispered three words: "'Zhen Shi Du', it is a kind of spiritual ability, I can't say it a second time." β
Bai Lianzhou curiously pasted Gwendlin's side and asked, "Could it be that someone launched the 'Town World Decision' in Saru Town?"
"It's just my suspicions, no evidence...... So don't talk nonsense!" Gwendlin tugged at the corners of Bai Lianzhou's clothes, his lips turned white, "What Monica said about the spirit beast riot is true, but after what you speculated just now, what happened before and after is not to be thought about. The relationship between spirit animals and sorcerers is like that of hunters and hounds, and even if they are not tamed, they are usually very docile. If you don't get provoked, you won't provoke humans. β
The girl's right hand jumped out of countless golden incantations: "The power of spirit beasts is strong and weak, and the strongest ancient spirit beast is difficult to subdue with the strength of several patriarchs. But they will never wake up suddenly, or even invade the city for no reason, someone must have premeditated and took a long time to wake it up, which will cause the town of Saru to be in turmoil all the time. The Emissary is just a gimmick......"
Bai Lianzhou said in a deep voice: "So, somewhere in Saru Town, there is a super strong spirit beast that is slowly awakening?
Gwendrin held his forehead and sighed helplessly: "Hey, judging from past experience, once the ancient spirit beast awakens close to the city, it will inevitably raze countless small towns to the ground...... Now I can only make sure that you are safe, and this kind of thing cannot be solved by a small oracle of mine. β
Bai Lianzhou let out a long sigh from the bottom of his heart. Think of the know-it-all boss in Saru, the pretty girl in the tailor's shop opposite, the apple tree at the aunt's house next door, the market at the east end of the town...... All this will disappear in this war of power, and the fate of the people in the countryside will be turned into dust in this struggle of powerful people.
Was the journey from Tubrick Bay to Saru a coincidence, or was it deliberately arranged? He had no way of knowing, but he was now in a shackle and could not turn back......
There is a debtor and a debtor, it seems that you still have to go to the astrological patriarch Rongmei to find the answer.
Seeing his melancholy, Gwendrin said, "Although I don't know how far things will go, but don't worry, we Spirit Clan will bear the brunt and will definitely do our best." β
Bai Lianzhou shook his head and said with a smile: "It's okay, I trust you." Where are you going next?
"Well, take one step at a time, I also follow orders. Gwendrin stood up and looked to the far north, "Let's go to Mystic Lake, my patriarch Feather is waiting for me. Maybe once you get there, you'll be able to get some help. β
