The Throne Under the Starry Sky Chapter 57: Light of Dawn (Part 1)
The light of the torch became faint, Hannah stood up and added animal fat to the three torches one by one. Jonah looked at the woman in the red cloak passing by, and found herself sleeping on the cold rocky terrace. There is a warm blanket on his body, with an arm on the blanket. The owner of the arm is of course Danny Stewart. The guy who is sleepy is spread his arms and feet, snoring and snoring, nothing at all. The vigilance that "responsible men" should have,
Guide Tantuha curled up beside the rock, closed his eyes, not knowing whether he was asleep or praying, Jonah propped up his body, rubbed his eyes, and whispered: "When is it now."
"You're awake." Hannah put the oil can into her rucksack, walked up to him and sat down, and held the big gun "Lime Henry's Prosthesis" in her arms: "It's about an hour before dawn. Sleep for a while."
"You stayed up all night." Looking at the tiredness on the face of Patriarch Stewart, Jonah suddenly felt a little ashamed. "Hurry up and rest. I'll take care of the guard and wake you up at dawn."
Hannah Stewart shook her head: "No, I'm not tired yet. In fact, I always feel tracked along the way. My brother is right. There are enemies watching us. I need to be vigilant."
The astrologer apprentice was shocked, and immediately drove away his sleepiness. He grabbed the staff Syrah Fauna in his right hand, and held the handle of the magic pistol in his left hand. His eyes scanned the quiet color: "Where, in Where."
Hannah chuckled and laughed: "Don't be too nervous, if my brother and I can't catch the tracer's shadow, it means that they are not nearby, at least, not on this rock flat."
"Who will follow you, enemy." Jonah raised his head and observed the ridge protruding above his head to see if there were any enemies lurking there. He was a little eager to try the new attack star formation he had never used in actual combat.
"I don't know. There are many enemies in Stewart's house, but I have never encountered them by sneaking in this way." Hannah also seemed clueless. She lowered her head and fiddled with the valve on the spear, checking the steam puppet. The magic spar in the mechanical center, pulled the bolt, and made an aiming action, "But I am not afraid. The Stewarts are never afraid of the enemy's challenge. In the dictionary of the King of Sand Pirates, there is only death in battle, no failure. "She turned her head and stared at Jonah with firm gray-green eyes, her long golden eyelashes shining in the firelight,
Jonah stared at the silhouette of the blonde woman under the light of the torch. He felt a little silly. "Cough cough..." He coughed to cover up his gaffe, and said without words: "Right, that... that Guide Tantuha, if she has any questions, she always finds her behavior a bit strange."
"Don’t think too much, the indigenous people will be somewhat different from us. Of course, I’ll take care of it." Hannah changed the subject: "Tell your story. You also have something on the three-masted sailboat. Days are over, I still don’t know you at all."
"I." The astrologer apprentice was taken aback, and pointed to the tip of his nose: "My story, I have nothing to tell..."
"Go ahead, everyone has a story." Hannah stretched, curled up, hugged the spear tightly, pressed her cheek to the steel barrel and looked at Jonah,
"...Well, when did you start, you know, I am an apprentice astrologer. Since I was a child, I have lived in the astrology tower in the red clay plain of St. Boren, following my teacher Koshava learned knowledge, and then the war began..." As he talked, Jonah himself fell into the memory, and the pictures of the past flashed one by one.
"I left the Astrology Tower, came to Cherry Cross, and met the most important friends of my life."
Sibbi, an archer with a green coat and bright, wheat-colored short hair, is a half-elf with superb swordsmanship and a person who taught him the survival rules of Cherry Tou. Cherry Tou is a strange place. The owner here is called Lao. Dad is a powerful figure who is able to protect the entire town from intrusion in the chaotic West Continent. There are hundreds of guest rooms in Yingtaodu. The tenants who pay to live in the guest rooms are protected by Dad and live in the same room. Guests, naturally become companions of the team,
In order to rush to pay the rent before the rent payment day, battles between the teams continue to occur. He lives in room a51, and his companions are friendly people. The brawny man who beats the enemy with his fist is called Toba, and he is leaving his hometown. , The mountain people who used to grow mushrooms for a living are tough and shy; they have an amazingly long and serrated knife, but their brains are not so good. They always stare at the distant red hair called Yekong in a daze. , Is the sword-wielding Garan who came from the Southern Continent of Buddhism; the black-haired woman comes from the far east, and her name is Long Ji; she and the blond knight Elliott riding a unicorn are companions, and together they are looking for someone Men travel the world,
"Then, then we gradually got acquainted."
After performing a number of tasks, the ship of Cherry Du to the southern continent is about to set sail. Their team must complete a mission in exchange for the ticket. At that time, the Zavi Empire has defeated the last great power of the Western Continent, Baze Lahr, the new Queen retreats from the city, along with the escaped Queen St. Boren, along the narrow mountain trail to the direction of Cherry Crossing. The last task is to intercept the pursuit of the Zawi Empire until the two queens arrive safely. Cherry crossing, this doesn’t sound like a joke. The entire Western Continent is moaning under Zawi’s iron cavalry. There are six people, but they have to launch an ambush against the invincible Zawi cavalry. It is said that the highest combat power of the Zawi Empire , One of the only four storm knights on the mainland, the legion commander Isaacios is also in pursuit,
"Later, we completed the task later, but paid such a heavy price..."
In a disaster, Storm Rider Izakios appeared, Toba sacrificed himself, and when the enemy dispersed and found his body, Sibi collapsed, and she kept fighting with the terrible The corpse talked until exhausted. After sleeping in Toba’s cold arms and cremating the honorable warrior, the partners returned to Cherry Crossing. There was already a sea of flames. The last battle was not over yet. Papa and Isaac Every collision of Oss caused a violent explosion. The cavalry and tenants around them died innocently. No one dared to approach the axis of the storm.
Finally, at the moment of boarding the ship, the earth shook, and the barbarians roared across the mountains and rushed towards the cherry crossing. Countless sharp guns covered every inch of the burning land of the cherry crossing like raindrops. The spring hunting festival ended early. The cherry crossing of the ferry that was sent out by the Zawi cavalry in advance was destroyed by Zawi’s ambition and the anger of the barbarians.
"In this way, I came to the Southern Continent, and because of a mysterious client, I was transported to the damned city of Namoza, because of a mysterious client....This is my story."
Spit out the last word, Jonah wiped away the tears from the corners of his eyes, turned his head and looked at the sky. He didn't want Hannah to see her fragility. No one spoke. The torch burst out sparks and grease dripped on the ground. There was a sizzle, the wind blew the hem of the red cloak, and the contemporary Patriarch of Stewart let out a long breathing sound. Only then did Jonah realize that Hannah fell asleep sometime, and the small face leaning on the barrel of the gun looked peaceful and serene, which made people feel calm. It’s hard to imagine such a girl who has just grown up, always carrying the history and glory of a mysterious family,
A ray of light pierced Jonah’s eyes. He turned to look at the eastern skyline. The sun had not yet risen, but the sunlight reflected by the clouds had begun to illuminate the vast endless sea of sand, in the middle of the small stone flat. Sprinkle the first ray of glory of Matraktiri,
"Get up, the sun is out." The astrologer apprentice jumped up and shouted,
Hannah stood beside him almost immediately, as if she had never fallen asleep. Danny sat up slowly and yawned: "It's dawn, lie... It's still dark, the sky is full of stars. ……"
Guide Tantuha also opened his eyes and looked at their actions curiously.
"It's now. I'll miss the opportunity anymore." Jonah hurriedly ran to the east of the pool, squatting next to the knife inserted into the ground, remembering something, and hurriedly asked: "I have forgotten one thing, Hannah. , Do you have any colorless and transparent crystal stones or gems such as agate, preferably polyhedral cut."
"Gems, there are no gems." Danny, who had not yet woken up, had a strong reaction when he heard this word.
Hannah seemed a little overwhelmed: "When Dad was alive, there were a lot of them. In the past few years, all of them have been sold...I think, no..."
"What should I do, **** it." Jonah beat his head in annoyance. "Forget about the key steps. I knew it would work well to polish a lens with quartz stone. It's definitely too late now."
"Oh, yes." Hannah was taken aback, and slowly unbuttoned the clasp of her cloak, revealing her slender neck. "This was given to me shortly after my father died and the second uncle's dying. I I always take it as a souvenir from my father. Is it the crystal stone you mentioned."
"What, a souvenir from the second mate, why I don't know." Danny jumped up like a thorn in his ass, "Is it a gem, let me see."
People's eyes are on the palm of Hannah's palm. Her palm is supported by a thin red rope. The end of the rope is tied with a crystal-clear pear-shaped crystal. Although it is not as dazzling as a diamond, the white crystal is shining. Unique clear luster,
"Wait..." Danny stretched his finger at the gem and stammered a little: "Well, this is the white crystal on the "Blood Storm", why is it here with you."
"I can't talk about it, I'll talk about it later." Jonah ran over in a hurry, grabbed the crystal stone and rushed to the knife inserted into the ground, suddenly turned around and took out the "Summer White Cherry" and threw it in the air. To Danny Stewart: "Catch it."
"Don't throw it. If you break it, Hannah won't eat us both raw." Danny was shocked, and a dive held the magic pistol firmly in his arms, and squatted on the ground for a while.
