The Throne Under the Starry Sky Chapter 23: The Well of Light (Part 1)
Jonah has never used magic weapons. In fact, he hasn’t touched any weapons except for the symbolic staff and Elliott’s heavy saber, but At this moment, the astrologer apprentice didn’t have time to think about it. He straightened his right arm, and the magic pistol that was spinning towards the front door was firmly held in his palm, sensing the temperature of his palm, and the activation crystal on the handle of the gun began to drive thirteen. The red crystal of the magic circle rotates, the energy of the magic spar in the magazine is squeezed out, and it rotates and boils along the mysterious mithril path, exuding a restless scorching aura,
"Hurry up and shoot and break the rope." Danny yelled loudly while struggling to maintain his balance five steps away.
Jonah raised the shadow of summer white cherry blossoms, raised his head in the sand and mist, aimed at the tangled sails on his head, pulled the trigger, and when the pure magical energy shot out from the barrel, he naturally squinted. I raised my eyes, but a sharp, straight band of light was still burned on the retina. This gun cut a tangled rope in half like a hot knife cutting butter. Half of the front mast immediately rolled and raised, and it was another The rope was pulled back and slammed on the rear mast from top to bottom like a chain hammer. The two horizontal masts were destroyed without any suspense in the crackling sound of a "click". The man closed his eyes in despair,
Jonah gritted his teeth, pressed his finger on the light trigger of the magic pistol, and fired four shots in a row. With no shooting experience, he used the beginner's luck to the extreme. Several large knots were accurately cut. At the moment when the main mast broke frequently, the broken front mast finally broke away from the rope and disappeared in the rolling yellow sand in the rear (from Jona’s perspective, it should be said to be above).
"Great...Hurry up, it's almost the end."
The astrologer apprentice just breathed a sigh of relief, Danny’s screams sounded again, Jonah firmly held the pistol in one hand, and the other hand grasped the rope that bound him, looking far ahead, the sand mist seemed more and more It's getting thicker and thicker, and the surroundings are as dark as the darkest dawn before sunrise, and the dull quicksand sounds continue to increase, as if 10,000 cowhide drums are sounded at the same time in an unknown place ahead.
Suddenly, a wall faintly appeared in his field of vision. In Jona’s eyes, who had just adapted to the angle of tilt, it was indeed a wall of yellow sand that lay across the sky, "Bactria’s wind "Just like a moth fighting a fire, it penetrates the sand and fog and hits the endless sand wall head-on. With the size of a three-masted sailboat, it can't even provoke a tiny wave when it smashes into the sand wall.
Hannah knelt behind the rudder and raised her right hand: "Danny, raise the mainsail in thirty seconds."
"Speaking lightly." Danny, who was biting a dagger, squeezed out four words from his teeth. He was crawling toward the mainmast with a protrusion on the deck. Every step he moved, his body seemed to be dangling. The flag is constantly swinging, and the white robe is hunting in the wind,
"Twenty-five seconds." Stewart's contemporary Patriarch has no habit of bargaining. She stood up straight against the wind and told her brother with a firm back in the red cloak that the order needs to be resolutely executed.
"How can I help." Jonah watched Danny slowly approaching with horror. Several times he almost got out of his hands and was caught in the gust of wind. The dagger that stabbed into the deck saved his master's life several times.
Danny leaped hard and grabbed a cable on the side of the mainmast. He immediately left the ground with his feet and hung in the air with only his hands. "There is a cable connected to a pulley at a position symmetrical to me. Hold firmly. Stay in it, when Hannah gives the order, I will cut off the rope that fastens the mainsail, and then we pull down hard at the same time until the mainsail rises, understand." He yelled at the cargo friend,
"Understood." Jonah inserted the magic pistol into his belt, twisted his body, and found the wrist-thick rope on his left hand to grasp it firmly.
"Fifteen seconds." Hannah waved her fist and gave a warning.
Danny's arms are hard, his body bends violently like a prawn, he swings twice on the rope, his feet are against the mast, and he stabilizes his figure. He wraps the rope around his arm twice with his left hand and takes it with his right hand. The dagger in the lower mouth is aligned with the mainsail tie at the foot,
"Five seconds." Hannah waved her arms again,
Jonah saw the endless earth-yellow wall infinitely magnify in front of him, but the sense of fear no longer increased. One stimulation after another made his heart numb, and there was nothing to make his heart beat anymore. Quicken it,,, at least the astrologer apprentice himself thinks so now,
"Raise the sail." The blonde captain yelled,
"The main sail rises." Danny replied, swinging a dagger to cut the rope. The main sail tied to the deck was immediately lifted by the wind and floated to the rear. With a dazed effort, the rope came out of his hand. It slid away, and the rough twine immediately cut the blood out of the palm,
The Stewart man pulled his rope with all his strength, "Tighten it." He shouted to the cargo friend on the opposite side. Due to the imbalance of the forces on both sides, the mainsail was slanted and raised. In the air, "Bactria's Wind" immediately tilted to the left, and the entire hull made a harsh creak. Hanna turned the rudder on the bow to try to correct the ship, but the three-masted sailboat was tilted like a dragonfly in a storm. Falling, falling towards the wall of extremely heavy yellow sand,
Jonah understands that he is standing at the critical point of fate again. He has no time to think about it. He can only use the last bit of force in his muscles and bone marrow to pull the rope. The pain in his palm turns into a blunt numb, thick rope. Like a monster of infinite power twisting in his hand, the astrologer apprentice looks at the slowly rising sail, feeling like he is fighting the entire sky,
The desperate effort of the seventeen-year-old boy gradually corrected the mainsail. As the white sails rose on the scarred mainmast, the strong wind that came on immediately changed the posture of the three-masted sailboat, and Jonah felt his feet Shen, the long-lost sense of gravity returned to his body, the wall in front of him slowly fell, and the broken bow of the sailing ship pointed to the skyline again, "welcome to the impact." As Hannah yelled out the reminder, the sand worm chirped with "Buck". The gust of Tria" rises into the sky and shoots out from the hustle and bustle of the dust at the end of the big sand waterfall,
Suddenly the world became extremely quiet, everything around seemed to slow down, Jonah saw the rope slowly floating in front of his eyes, Danny's head and feet hung funny in the sand, Hannah's crimson cloak Like a flower in full bloom in the air, revealing chocolate-colored long legs, arms and waist, each grain of sand appears crystal clear, it turns out that sunlight is projected on the deck from nowhere, reflecting the floating sand and dust in magnificent, It turns out that sand is the debris of quartz crystals. Jonah carefully studied the structure of a gravel in front of him, and a surprised sigh sounded in his head.
"Boom."
Chacha and the sailing ship landed on the rolling quicksand, splashing huge sand waves 20 yards high, "Bactria's blast" rides the wind and waves in the sand flow at the bottom of the big sand waterfall, throwing away the huge roar of the sand waterfall Behind his ears, Jonah patted his chest, which had been turned upside down, coughed up a mouthful of hot yellow sand, then raised his head, and saw the clear blue sky above the endless sand sea, and Danny sat on the floor. Going up and laughing, Hannah turned around behind the wheel, with a bleeding scar on her forehead, but her eyes were brighter than the noon sun,
"Come here, the steepest sand waterfall in fifteen years."
The male Stewart fell on the deck and waved his fists. Hannah Stewart walked slowly down the bow. Due to weak physical strength, she almost tripped over the messy cables. She walked to the ship's gunwale and looked down, and then shot He patted the railing and smiled cheerfully: "It's okay to chat, really a strong girl."
"This is over." Jonah was there in disbelief,
"I look back for myself." Danny was too lazy to get up, and pointed his finger behind.
The astrologer apprentice used his injured finger to slowly untie the knot. As soon as he turned around, he was shocked. The heart that he thought would not be beating violently again played fierce drums,
Is that the place where you just rushed down on the huge cliff with high towering yellow sand? Jonah stared at the miracle of the Creator with his mouth dumbfounded. 700 yards were just a fingertip on the sheepskin map in the geographic surveying and mapping. Another tiny distance at your fingertips, but standing under a cliff 700 yards high can you truly understand the majesty of creation. This 700 yard distance is not made of rocks, but a mad trajectory of ten million tons of yellow sand leaning down. The sailboat has drifted away from the big sand waterfall, but from the violent ground shaking, you can clearly feel the heavy impact of the falling sand flow every moment.
Holding his head high, until his neck made a difficult gurgling sound due to the angle of his neck, Jonah could barely see the horizontal line at the top of the sand waterfall. The top of the cliff covered in the sand was terribly far away, remembering that he was from there. As if swooping down from a place far away, dense goose bumps appeared on the back of the astrologer apprentice, his legs softened, and he sat down on the ground.
"This...it's a gambling with life..." Jonah murmured, raising his palms to look closely. Both palms are covered with wounds, but the blood is absorbed by the yellow sand, which looks like a thick oil paint mixed with red and yellow. ,
"You've got the point, cargo friend." Danny smiled feebly and said, "Gamble with life time and time again. Isn't this the most interesting thing in the endless sea of sand."
Hannah slowly approached the two men, staring at Jonah’s arms, Jonah suddenly woke up, pulled out the white summer cherry from his belt, turned the gun and returned it to each other, a little embarrassed: "I'm sorry , Fired five shots in a row, it should not be fired anymore today."
Hannah nodded, reached out to hold the handle of the gun, hesitated again, did not retrieve the magic pistol,
"Very strange." Danny commented on the side, "Given the level of importance my sister attaches to Dad’s belongings, it’s really inexplicable and weird to throw it at you. If you slip and don’t catch it, Want to find this gun in the quicksand again, it is a waste of life, hum."
Only then did Jonah react, and he seemed a little puzzled: "Yes, this gun..."
Hannah suddenly released her hand, pushed the handle of the gun away, and turned to the bow: "I will leave it to you, find out the secret of the white cherry blossoms in summer, and return it to me."
The two men stared at each other in amazement, and the male Stewart covered his mouth: "It's over, my sister is in love with you. The contemporary Patriarch of Stewart actually fell in love with a 17-year-old kid from unknown origin. , It’s still a shipment of the entrusted goods. I knew that. It’s better to marry Lao Bei two years earlier. I can at least get a quarter of the east side of the "Racing Star". Damn it."
"Chichi...bang."
In the familiar sound of steam eruption, "Climb Henry's Prosthesis" shot a bullet, punching a deep bullet hole in the deck with blue smoke, one centimeter above the bullet hole, is Danny covering the white The crotch in the robe,
My brother looked down at the big hole in his robe, and calmly touched the bridge of his nose: "Sometimes I think about it, it’s a good idea to marry Edward Schmidt and become the proprietress of Goddess Light...Farewell to this light sword shadow. Days..."
