Release that Witch Chapter 457: Phantom sound
"Actually you don't have to accompany me." Echo walked beside Scarlet Water River, and the snow under his feet creaked.
"The city is not safe. This is not Border Town." Iron Axe walked behind her and kept a distance of two steps. "And His Highness has instructed that if you leave the castle and there are no other witchs around, I should Protect you. "
"I wouldn't tell him if I knew it already," she exclaimed, "in addition, you don't need to pay respect to me."
"In my heart, you will always be Clan Head and Drow Silvermoon of Brave Sand Clan."
When referring to the word Brave Sand, Echo was silent. Although Iron Axe could not see her expression, she could also feel the other party ’s mood was a little down. I can close my mouth and follow her quietly.
Compared with Scarlet Water River meandering in the wild, this tributary is almost in a straight line after entering the city. The river banks on both sides are paved with masonry, flat and neat. Every few dozen steps, there will be a stairway leading to the river surface, probably for people to fetch water.
Today's snow is not too big. Occasionally one or two pedestrians will be met on the road, whether male or female, they will be surprised to look at Echo. Obviously, the body and light brown skin of adult Silvermoon tall is a bit special. Coupled with that blue-gray long hair, it is particularly noticeable in the Greycastle inland, rarely seen pure blood Sandpeople.
"Let's go to the other side," Echo obviously didn't like being looked at so much.
"Yes."
An arch bridge was found, and the two carefully crossed the frozen bridge deck to the east of stronghold. There are few houses to be seen here, and the vast fields are covered with snow, all of which are flat at a glance. The cyan city wall in the distance appears in the snow curtain, forming a sharp contrast with the Western District.
"Iron Sand City never saw such a scene." Echo sighed, "Before leaving Extreme Southern Region, I thought the entire continent is like a sand, except sand, but water and oasis must use life Scrambled natural resource. But here, no one will bleed for Scarlet Water River, just squat down when you want to drink water. "
"But they will bleed for something else," Iron Axe whispered, "gold royal, gem, honor, status ... can't escape fighting anywhere."
"Really ... but Nightingale told me that she believes her Highness can stop the dispute," she raised head, looking towards the gray sky, "whether it is Sandpeople or the kingdom of the mainland, whether ordinary people or witch, can be equal Enjoy natural resource, a free and comfortable life. "
"This ... I don't know," Iron Axe hesitant for a moment, he really can't imagine that everyone has left the gap and lived together, even if it is His Royal Highness who has the power of gods, I am afraid it will be difficult He can undoubtedly conquer all enemies, but can he make them willing to accept his rule? No matter what method His Royal Highness uses, in the process of conquest, the seeds of hatred have been planted.
"Do you want to return to Iron Sand City?" Echo suddenly asked.
"No, Lord Silvermoon," Iron Axe came back, and replied without hesitation, "I have sworn to Three Gods, and will always be His Highness Roland Wimbledon, to open up territory for him. But rest assured, he Since you promised to take revenge for you, you will definitely do it in the future. When you return to Iron Sand City, no one will dare to disrespect you. "
"But I don't want to do Clan Head of Brave Sand Clan," she whispered, "I like to stay in the evergreen trees, like to be with Wendy, Nightingale, and my highness to teach my songs. I hope that one day I can go back and take a look, but I do n’t want to live in the desert and fight for water. "
Even so, you are still the only Brave Sand Clan successor in my mind. Iron Axe did not finally say what he said, but bowed his head, "No one can force you."
The two walked across a white field and walked to an open area. Echo stopped and said, "Practice here, it should not disturb anyone."
Iron Axe knows that the other party ’s ability is to make a variety of sounds, and she usually practices in the back garden of small town castle. This time, in order to avoid disturbing the important meetings of His Highness the Prince and noble, she came here to show her ability.
He nodded and stepped back, "I'll be on your guard."
"By the way, I made a song for my hometown," Echo turned around, "Do you want to listen?"
"Song?" Iron Axe froze slightly.
"Yeah, using the arrangement method taught by Her Royal Highness to mix the sounds of various instruments together to make the tunes more layered." Speaking of this, the expression of Echo was significantly easier, "I found it after trying it. It turned out that a song can be so good. Each tone of joining will give it a completely different feeling, and I do n’t know where His Highness knew these methods. When I was sold to Kingdom Capital, I never heard any noble. Talked about it. "
"His Highness Roland is different from the others." He is the darling of gods, Iron Axe thought.
"Yeah ... no one has ever treated witch as seriously as he did," Echo said. "But the name Your Highness gave to those remixes is too weird. It's almost like it's completely irrelevant. Things go together, such as what is electronic music, agricultural heavy metal, "she shook her head with a smile," I guess only he can come up with such a name. "
Iron Axe hasn't had time to talk back, the song is already ringing.
When the various music tunes flowed into his ears, he was suddenly stunned in place. This is an incredible tune, like the sand passing through the oasis, and like an orange fire jumping from underground.
At that moment, Iron Axe felt that he had returned to the desert land where the sun was shining. Is this ... an illusion? He lowered his head, only to find that the snow had disappeared. I do not know when he was in an oasis, looking out, the hot sand covered the entire field of vision. The woman in front of her eyes closed slightly, and the singing echoed between the blue sky. Her feet stood in a shallow water, and the ripples slowly swelled. The beauty was suffocating.
Walking between sand and dust
Following the Oasis
Footprints left in the sand sea
Your figure is reflected in Qingquan
One day, the oasis will become a new desert
A new oasis will grow in the desert
But the only constant
It's a legend about you
Someday
I will step on your footprints
Find your figure
Before dawn breaks
The silent moment
...
As the song fades away, Iron Axe returns to Longsong Stronghold with snowflakes falling again, everything is like a fantasy, as if nothing happened. He couldn't help but swallow his mouth and spread his palm, a transparent grit in his palm was shining. (To be continued.)
