Silent Crown Chapter 282: Light and Shadow
There was a strange neighing sound.
It's just a momentary stasis, and the stiffened Dagoni has moved again.
After the "turtle shell" was smashed, the monsters felt fear from their instincts, and they boiled around in its corpse.
They stimulated the shriveled brain, trying to mobilize the last emotion remaining in the corpse.
"Arthur..."
Dagonite's body shook, and his face slowly lifted.
On the mutilated face covered with foul-smelling liquid, there are still scorching marks from the iron slurry.
"Give me back..." the remaining anger said.
The hatred buried in the corpse was awakened, roaring frantically, repeating the same name, bitterly resentful, trying to seek the glory and status gained for himself.
"Arthur!"
He screamed, the bricks under his feet suddenly cracked, his body bulged again convulsively, and his already exaggerated strength soared again.
The armor all over his body screamed loudly, and roared in response to his grief and anger.
The great sword that fell on the ground was broken by his foot, and the steel turned into fine iron sand under his ravages, deeply embedded in the cracks of the stone.
Finally, the single eye that was as red as lava looked at Ye Qingxuan, and then, the giant rushed furiously.
"——Arthur!!!"
Before people arrived, that exaggerated force set off a hurricane in the hall, and people couldn't open their eyes. But in the strong wind, the figure of the young man stood still, motionless, and the hem of the jet-black dress was flying in the strong wind like an eagle spreading its wings.
The melody of the rapid circumstance burst out from his hand like a sharp blade, and in an instant, it echoed in the hall of the gale. The young man stared at the crack in his armor and looked at the monster hiding in it.
In the boiling mucus, a pupil appeared, and they were also looking at him, but they couldn't find any panic in that face.
Only indifference.
If before that, Ye Qingxuan was still afraid of the former Knights of the Round Table. Then once these demons are exposed to the original form, there is nothing to be afraid of.
Facing the impact like a boulder crushing, the young man raised his cane high and suddenly fell to the ground——Beng! In a flash. The crisp sound of steel tremor turned into a magnificent sound of horn roar.
The horn carries the violent breath of the sun, as if to dispel the endless night and desolation.
——Announce the arrival of dawn!
In an instant, the darkness was illuminated by firelight.
One by one, sharp silver nails half a meter long and engraved with many notes and movements flew out of his rucksack, after sensing such a clear and demon breath. It swallowed the flames, shooting out like a siege ballista.
Boom! boom! boom! boom!
There was a roar of torn steel.
Sixteen silver nails pierced into the cracks in the iron armor in an instant. The huge impact caused Dagonit to fly upside down and hit the wall.
Silver nails pierced the sticky monsters, shriveled corpses, pierced the armor, and finally nailed deeply into the wall.
Immediately afterwards, endless purgatory fire spewed out from the silver nails, from the inside out, swept through Dagoni's body, turning it into coke. It also ignited the countless demon in form of imitation.
This is the chanting consumable given to Ye Qingxuan by the shaman. In just a few days, the alchemists refined tens of tons of sterling silver and tailor-made alchemy equipment for "Night of the Barren Mountain".
The firepower of the barren mountain night has not only been doubled!
In the flames, Dagonite struggled, but couldn't break free, and was swallowed by the flames from the inside out.
Countless viscous liquids spouted from the crevices of the armor, scrambling to escape, splashing like a fountain. But their bodies had already been ignited, and they were crazily convulsing on the ground. Until the end, no ashes were left.
Through the thick flames, Dagonite's body seemed to have returned to before dying again, letting out a scream. Frantically beating his own wall. The cracks spread.
Until the end, I didn't move anymore.
All the etheric fluctuations disappeared without a trace, leaving only a red-hot armor left in place.
Until now, Ye Qingxuan breathed a sigh of relief, and layers of cold sweat permeated his back, showing a grateful smile: "Although I am not a formal musician. I am still quite strong."
When he said that, he heard a sneer from someone unknown who seemed to be coming from the wind, which made his expression stiff, and comforted himself: "Normal people can’t compare with that group of monsters. That's fine."
He murmured something that was not understood by others, walked forward, and pulled out the silver nails from the red armor. As the silver nail was pulled out, the wall that had reached the edge of collapse burst into pieces, revealing a huge gap.
The broken wall and the armor trapped in it fell into the night sky outside the tower, fell downward, and fell apart in the air.
"Have you climbed this high?"
The high-altitude cold wind poured into the hall, Ye Qingxuan stood beside the crack, staring at the clouds outside, looking down...then his expression froze.
In the gap between the layers of clouds, Ye Qingxuan clearly saw the noisy and prosperous city. Under the moonlight, the lights in the city were bright.
The carriages run along the streets.
The majestic and solemn in the upper city, the singing and dancing in the middle city, and the chaos and noisy in the lower city. There are boats on the pier that have just arrived here, and the cargo ships that are about to set off sound their whistle and sound high The sound echoed in the night sky.
Such a lively and prosperous city is like a pearl that also blooms at night. Everyone can't help but feel the shock from the bottom of their hearts.
"This is Avalon?"
Ye Qingxuan turned his head back blankly, feeling the strong aura of disaster in the main hall, and when he looked at the prosperous city beyond the crack, his expression was full of horror that was too thick to dissolve.
I'm clearly in the core of Avalon's Shadow, but why can I overlook the scenery of Avalon through here?
If the sight you see outside the crack is not an illusion... then where is you?
In the shadows?
Still...

Under the same night, in the clock shop, with the ticking sound, Hermes, who had eaten supper, lay on the sofa, relaxed his belt, and his belly bulged on a large scale.
In front of him, a quaint large mirror was placed.
He lazily propped his double chin, squinting at the sight in the mirror-in the mirror, the desolate city and the shadow of the demon faintly flashed past, until the end. Frozen at the angle of overlooking.
In the dark city, the demons surged, and the white tower rose into the sky, exuding a weird aura.
"The Shadow of Avalon?"
Bai Xi passing by stood in front of him. Knocked on the mirror curiously, "Can you see another world from here?"
"Sorry, no."
Hermes shrugged, "However, the shadow of Avalon is never in another world. At best... it's just the difference between ‘here’ and ‘over there."
"What do you mean?"
"If I want to say it. At this moment, we are in the shadow of Avalon. Would you believe it? Well, you won't.
But this is the case. "
Hermes showed a marked malicious smile, "Everyone knows that with the failure of King Arthur, the sword in the stone fell apart, and the out-of-control'scepter? Heaven is coming' pulled Avalon's fragments. Entered the depths of the etheric sea, buried everything that year, and formed the current "Shadow of Avalon".
But the shadow will always follow behind the light. How far is Avalon’s shadow from Avalon? "
Hermes raised his hand, and the light passed through his arm, leaving a shadow of his palm on the wall. The shadow changed with his palm's posture, but Bai Xi shuddered.
"—The answer is, it's close at hand."
Hermes looked at his shadow, and pressed his palm against the shadow, as if he had merged with the shadow.
"It's ridiculous, right?
Throughout Avalon, hundreds of thousands of people live, die, breathe, eat, sleep, mate... but no one has ever noticed it. I was only one step away from the abyss. "
Hermes looked at her with a cheerful expression: "You and the monster live in the same city and pass by each other. You live in the same house and get along day and night.
They don't even know each other.
For example, at this moment, there is a spider mother on top of your head..."
Bai Xi's expression suddenly became gloomy, and the dictionary he was holding in his hand smashed at Hermes: "You are a serious cleanliness fetish who will tolerate a monster in your home? Are you fooling a three-year-old child?"
"Haha, worthy of being my student!"
Hermes stretched out his hand. Fat fingers caught the dictionary and laughed.
"Now that I said it, make it clear."
Bai Xi said coldly: "Don't just sell it."
"I'm just about to talk, don't worry."
Hermes shook his head and sighed, imagining his fingers in the air, and said in his mouth:
"The three kings in ancient times called the place where they were located in the material world, and called the kingdom where the great source was located as the "etheric world", separated by nine layers of the etheric sea.
But there is no long distance between the physical world and the etheric world... Rather, they overlap each other a long time ago. The nine-layer etheric sea connects the two with each other.
The saints use their own scepter to formulate the theory of music, and use that invisible realm as a tower to penetrate the two realms and achieve all kinds of incredible miracles. I hope that one day, I can enter the great source......
King Arthur, of course, is no exception.
Actually, the entire city of Avalon is a ‘taki’ made by his scepter named ‘Heaven’s Coming’, and everything is to maximize the power.
With this, King Arthur has almost ascended to the throne of a demigod.
And when he died, the kingdom of heaven that had descended on the earth collapsed, and fell into the depths of the etheric sea with him, sleeping with darkness.
In the first few years, whenever the fog enveloped Avalon, the demons lurking in the shadows had the opportunity to cross that door again and appear here.
Later, as the shadows of Avalon sank deeper and deeper in the etheric sea, they became farther and farther from ‘here’, and in the end, only the ‘blood path’ was left. For hundreds of years, in order to hide some shameful secrets, only the Royal Society quietly opened the way with its own blood.
Unfortunately, recently, under the pull of some caring people...this country of demons that has sunk into the darkness has gradually awakened again. "
He paused, and his expression twitched: "After all~IndoMTL.com~This is thanks to the shit-chucking stick.
The Ye family is almost dying in the East, and when it comes to the West, it still refuses to die. For thousands of years, there is no normal generation of Patriarchs! Including your cheap cousin..."
Bai Xi was silent, staring at the world in the mirror, and gradually faded away from her immature cheeks, and she could not see anything. But Hermes raised his eyebrows: "Worrying about him?
Forget it, you might as well worry that your dad who is far away in the Yunlou finally made up his mind to take you back and continue his life for his Yunlou great cause.
——His life is harder than you. "
Hermes snorted coldly, "Ye Lanzhou really tried so hard back then. He didn't know how many good things he had hidden in him. It's a pity that he had done everything he could, and he didn't expect that his son turned out to be a hard-hearted one.
It looks colder and more realistic than anyone, but it is more naive than anyone else. "
Speaking, he applied with schadenfreude, and exclaimed, "I really look forward to it. When Ye Qingxuan discovers the truth that he has been'deliberately neglected' because of his innocence, how wonderful should his expression be?" (unfinished) To be continued.)
