The Throne Under the Starry Sky Chapter 74: Goodbye, reality (middle)
The Pitchfork Squad waited for dawn among the ruins of Ringolpent. Elliott lit a small bonfire and took care of the feverish little grasshopper. Danny Stewart collected a large bag of gold coins. Ye excitedly confided to his sister the extravagant life after returning to the endless sea of sand. Yekong sat in the corner of the room with the famous knife and tooth in his arms, without saying a word. Put on animal skins and cotton cloth to keep out the wind and cold, so that southerners look like a rag doll with stitches,
No more sound came out from within the barrier, Jonah didn't know what the thorn elves were doing, and he didn't dare to spy on the barrier. He had been studying the strange ball, but it was completely integrated on the surface. There are no gaps, no way to open, the flames are crackling, a few drops of ice water on the roof fall into the bonfire and turn into green smoke. They are stationed in the art showroom of the elven village, surrounded by countless exquisite and unusual sculptures and paintings. , But the partners have their own concerns, no one has the mood to appreciate art,
The steam table clock dinged by the campfire, it was time to change the guard, and then Jonah was responsible for guarding until dawn. He propped up his body with a stick, put some wood on the fire, and covered it heavily He put on his hood and walked out of the room and pushed open the arch. There was a thick layer of white snow in the assembly hall, and the hole in the center of the ceiling was still sporadic with snowflakes, but the snowstorm seemed to have subsided,
Along the vine stairs to the ground, the boy shivered in the pre-dawn cold. He stomped hard and raised his head to observe the sky. The snow and wind stopped. The sky of the northern continent appeared deep black and blue, and the stars were sparse. Behind the clouds of descent, astrologers want to find familiar constellations, so they can’t help but look up at the vast galaxy for a long time.
"Look over there." Hannah Stewart's voice sounded, and the woman in red walked up to him and stretched her finger to the north, "How beautiful."
In the place where the North Star shines, there are silk-like aurora wafting in the sky, evolving with an intoxicating color. "As mentioned in "Geographical Calculations of the Northern Continent", it is the combination of the magnetic force of the endless mountains in the north and the air. The result of this." The boy sighed, "Yes, it's so beautiful."
The two stood side by side in the snow, quietly admiring the aurora blooming,
For a long time, Jonah said: "Go down and sleep for a while, there is still some time before dawn."
Hannah stretched out her finger, and a snowflake fluttered down and landed gently on her fingertips. Her body temperature quickly melted the hexagonal ice crystal through the glove. "No sleep, just stay with you for a while."
The boy turned his head and looked at the woman's pretty profile face under the stars, "You always tense your nerves along the way. If you don't take a good rest, your body will be unable to hold it, Hannah."
"It's very close." The woman replied, "If they had been here three days ago, no matter how fast they were, they would not be able to travel sixty miles. Yesterday's blizzard should have trapped them on the road. , Should be able to catch up with them soon."
"Yes." Jona felt that Hannah was avoiding another woman's name, and he did not mention Long Ji's name very cooperatively, "Long Zunjun and his party were there when the communication came last time The location of the Emerald Tree is only thirty or forty miles away, but there is no response from the communicator now. I wonder if they have changed their location."
"You said what they were looking for." Hannah suddenly reached out and patted the light snowflakes on Jona's shoulder, "What can the thorn elves bring to them."
The young man noticed the subtle changes in the atmosphere, and replied absently: "Long Zunjun is the most special item in the dragon family’s bloodline abilities. According to his own, it may be able to absorb special abilities other than the dragon family. I don’t know what kind of power the thorn elf possesses. If he travels all over the mainland to collect various powers, it will become very dangerous."
"After meeting, I should fight."
"Fighting,...should be inevitable."
"With the current Pitchfork squad, can you beat a monster like Long Zunjun."
"...I don't know."
Jonah said with guilt: "I don’t know, Hannah, I just did it on an impulse, but I really have to face the Long Family Patriarch. I don’t have any confidence in my heart... Even Long I don’t know if Ji is with him or not. Speaking of which, I don’t know anything about Long Zunjun. If Long Ji is already..."
Hannah Stewart interrupted him: "Don't think about it, Long Ji is fine, she will be waiting for you dozens of miles away, we will find her and take her out of the hands of the old man. , Not only me, everyone will help you."
"...I'm sorry, Hannah."
"Why do I say I'm sorry? I was not forced to come here. Besides, the night sky of the North Continent is beautiful, isn't it?"
After these words, the two fell silent. I don’t know how long it was before Hannah suddenly moved, and her boots gurgled over the snow. “I’m going to rest. Please pay attention to safety. Besides, To open the ball, you might as well try the star formation you used earlier. The new attack star formation seems to be different from your previous spells. I can’t tell, but maybe that's the key." Waves, Stewart The contemporary patriarch carried the big gun "Admiral" and walked along the vine stairs into Ringo Pant under the ice,
Jonah let out a long sigh. He always seemed very nervous when he was alone with Hannah. Just now he had been thinking about it, and he was finally relieved. Hannah's words reminded him, "Zero change." The thorn elves opened the barrier, maybe it could really affect the ball. The boy took out the small ball from his arms and placed it carefully on the raised ice cube, facing the star formation on the top of the staff Syrah Make some slight adjustments, then take five steps back and start preparing to attack the star array,
With the experience of the last test firing, this time he strictly controlled the output power and only maintained the minimum annihilation energy. In order to ensure that the power of the two attributes of the stars can be sufficiently tuned, he used stars The dust sprinkled a spiral path on the snow. Standing on the outside of Gilberto's spiral, the center of the spiral was the purple sphere. The clear air like ice springs of the northern continent made the interstellar lines clearer, Jona. I plucked the red and blue strings to gather the energy of ice and fire in my hands. "Go..." The ice field was lit up with a strange iridescence, and the red and blue rays entangled and collided with each other, uninterrupted. The Gilberto spiral was injected into the dense explosion of, and proceeded along the spiral line to the inside. Jonah felt that each collision made the frequency spectrum of the two energy closer and closer, as if two uneven pulleys were interlocking with each other. The friction becomes more and more smooth,
"Zzizizizi..." The ray finally reached the center of the spiral, accurately hit the purple sphere, and transformed into a chaotic wave of time and space. The spectacle appeared again, and 10,000 worlds flashed in the mirror. Na could not help holding his breath. Suddenly, there was a pain in his chest, and a strange burning sensation suddenly appeared. He groped his underwear pocket in a panic, and he touched a few hot papyrus papers.
"Damn it, it's an untitled book." The young man anxiously took out three and a half pages of the untitled book, and found that the yellowed paper began to burn, and the flames that had grown out of nowhere swallowed the handwriting of the betrayer Segles. The flames cannot be extinguished by tapping with hands or covering with snow. The text is disappearing quickly. It is a prophecy that has never been read in the treaty. The paper curls up, and the scribbled characters written with ink and pen turn into ashes and fall, "... …What’s going on?” The young man’s hand was sore that he could only let the pages burn, trying his best to keep the unburnt prophecy in his head, but the messy words were reflected in his eyes and couldn’t be formed in his head. Any meaningful sentence, the flame is extinguished in an instant, and there is only a pile of black ashes in the snow,
The astrologer fell on his knees, stroking the paper ashes tremblingly. The ashes shattered at the touch of a touch, and it was impossible to recover the words. A corner of the scorched paper was exposed in the flying ashes, guiding him, encouraging him, The untitled prophecies that drove him to wander so far have disappeared, and only the few remaining lines of text can barely distinguish,
"Segles the Betrayer..." Calling the name of the mysterious prophet, the bewildered astrologer slowly held up the broken piece of chapter. At this time, there was a sharp crack in the vortex in the center of the spiral, and Jonah suddenly turned his head. I saw the purple orb turned on,
Thirty-three miles away from Ringolpante, a middle-aged man suddenly opened his eyes, stood up and stared at the southern sky, "Is there anything wrong with Patriarch." A tall man with unusually broad shoulders His entourage immediately knelt down on one knee and asked, "Grandpa Shah Jiang is on the alert. If there is an abnormality, he should send a signal. Do you feel anything? Do you want to go out for inspection?"
"Forget it." The man with gray hair and sharp wrinkles as a knife said solemnly, "What you don't understand, even if Ah Ying doesn't understand, if I guess right, the thorn elves' "Frost Treasure" has been It’s turned on,, besides us, sure enough, there are still people doing this."
Slowly condensed a dark figure from his shadow. The figure of the shadow is exactly the same as that of the middle-aged man. Even the voice is very similar: "We can't open it, how did they open it, could it be Jill? Bernayon really has a descendant, Patriarch, I think I should go back and take a look."
The man named Long Zunjun said indifferently: "Why, even if someone inherits the space-time star array, they are just like chickens and dogs. With my'big bite' power, there is no need to open it. Frost Treasure can also achieve the goal, let them catch up slowly, we are not far from the destination, no one can stop, eat electricity, open the barrier, I say hello to them."
"Yes." The broad-shouldered follower did not move, but the scattered snowflakes that were blocked outside floated down. A blizzard fell on her face, and the coolness awakened the sleeping woman. She opened her dark eyes. At first glance, I saw the deep blue night sky,
"It's so beautiful." Long Ji said,
