Chapter 673: Immortal Ceremony (5)(1/2)

"Continue to go south?"

"It's not my decision." Uriel sighed, rolling over and climbing onto the saddle. "I guess they've crossed the Morris. What do you know about the rituals of the Avatar, Sauron?"

"Almost all dead ends" the ring asserted, "This is even more true for the mysterious person who has not arrived at the high ring. I suspect she is lying." It refers to Nadiya.

"You shouldn't doubt the judgment of the parchment."

"The things themselves are strange. The Silver Song Knight's death is not confirmed. The elf saint you are looking for actually gave up the confession and walked with the master in your dream to the deserted snow field. Tell you the truth, boy, I have recorded the rituals of the great astrologer. They each made preparations when crossing the path of death, but in general, the venue requirements are not ranked first. Is it necessary to go that far?"

Uriel tried hard to recall: "Parsur said that she was guided by the goddess and went all the way south."

"If it was Heather, He should guide her back to the Forest of Celestiality. Saint Valorland needs her even more."

"You don't understand. It was her tribe who drove her away."

"Oh, why do you think this is? The surrender faction is not popular in the future. As a queen, she shouldn't have left. Don't your faithful president think so too?"

"Naidiya and her companions are not demons yet."

"If it were other associations, you can say that. But the curtain of dusk? They are famous and have records in a thousand years later."

"Maybe the record is wrong," he retorted, "we can all see that they are not the kind of madman who is desperate..."

"You really think so? Naidia wants to escape from Alanwo with her association. If she doesn't find the Bible in the end, think about what she would do."

Uriel found it difficult to answer. "No matter what, in the dream world, this is something that has never happened. Do you want me to punish innocent people with non-existent sins?"

"The master in the dream doesn't recognize us at all, don't you even want to find him." The ring mocked him.

This was a shock to the teaching disciple. Sorenti was just a tiny example. In fact, he undoubtedly violated the principle for Joey - not to mention anything else, when he was in Mortus, if the Knights of Silver Song insisted on executing the mentor, he would definitely not be able to help stop him, even if the other party did lead the free man to burn, kill and rob. It seemed that I was far more partial than I thought.

But what else can I do? The question is right before me, but Ulire soon realized that he could not figure it out for a while. "I am not Lucia, I can't do fairness and justice. But Nadiya is not an enemy. During the ancestors, the nameless people could survive openly. People all believe it." He didn't want to continue to worry, "There are only a few organizations. The Cangzhi Forest of Parsul is one of them. The natural elves of the ancestors are very repelling the origin. Do you know the reason?"

"There are records of the tower. During the Holly Agreement, the forest race once believed that the origin of the origin was treasonable."

"The crown prince of the Empire, McAdam, was rejected by the forest race, so he had to sign it with the "winner" Villonka."

"You know this history quite well"

Now Ulier can confirm that the Holly Agreement in his dream is close to the historical truth.

But one thing is not enough to be implemented. The mystery surrounds the whole world. Uriel passes through the garden, crosses the city walls, and goes deep into the vast snowfield. Walking behind Kamaria, the apprentice does not feel cold yet, but he dares not speed up easily. He feels that he is approaching the edge of Pinia Io, and no one knows what will happen.

And the worst case is nothing.

"You should go back the same way" ring warning, "There is a dead end ahead"

Uriel looked up at the snowfield, and the sky here was always covered with thick clouds. "Does the tower astrologer know where the southernmost part is?"

『No one has been there...but there are some records. We can indeed observe the whole world, which is not an exaggeration.『It proudly gives the answer.『The southernmost tip of Pinia Io is the sea of ​​ice, from which the moon rises.』

"Broken Moon?"

"Is there a second moon in the sky?"

"It's incredible." Uriel murmured yearningly, "The moon will actually fall into the sea."

"It's not just the sea. During the day, He will continue to go down, through the passages under the sea, and into the underground world. Our day is the night of underground races, but their nights are brighter than during the day... If you chose to become an astrologer, you have to understand these astronomical knowledge." The ring is very popularizing science.

"I thought this should be considered common sense." The apprentice himself came from the world and had never heard of such a saying.

"Mysterious knowledge cannot be spread out casually"

"Is this true?"

"Most of the mysterious creatures you come into contact with will ask such stupid questions," Sauron said contemptuously. "Mortals do not have fire and will not understand the mystery, but they are very good at misinterpretation, which leads to the confusion and coverage of real knowledge. Therefore, from the time of our ancestors, mysterious creatures have required that mystery must be kept pure."

It seems to make sense. "But what if someone goes to the end of the world and discovers where the moon is going...and then reveals the truth?"

"Only idle people like you do this"

Ulier did not refute: "What will happen?"

"Not really. No one will believe it." Sauron said indifferently, "People always believe what they can see. If you ask me, no one will come to this ghost place at all. Going forward, you can't even see man-made things."

Suddenly, a strong wind blew across the ridge. Ulier saw snow waves rushing down the crescent-shaped steep slope, whistling into the deep valley on the west side. It was like the scars of a mountain range, with rugged rocks and ruddy corners, but under the decoration of the frosty and snowy jungle, it had a dangerous beauty.

And just above the rift and ridge, at the corner of the crescent ramp and the silver-white jungle, a slender, bright pink flag danced in the wind, waving, and a circle of golden tassels stuck to each other at the edge. In the middle of the fabric, fine stitches embroidered crossed white torches. They looked at it in their own way and fell into silence.

"What is that? Did you see it? What is that!" The ring flickered like bad contact.

"I guess it's a flag." Ulier replied seriously, "but it appears in front. So it's probably a natural magical move."

If Sauron was really good, it would probably be blushing. "You don't have to laugh at me! Hell, that's really a trace of civilization. Can there be a village here? Is Suvilie's people? It doesn't make sense!"

Reality won't make sense to you. "We take a detour there." Ulier decided, "Every scene in the dream has meaning, maybe Parsul and his mentor are nearby."

"You have already had experience" ring said in disappointment, "You still ask me what to do."

"I can go faster with you," he comforted Sauron.

Everything was expected. Less than two hundred yards behind the flagpole, there was a sudden stone tower hidden among the cliffs. When Uriel approached under the flagpole, he saw a figure curled in the crack of the rock. He raised his guards to prevent the other party from shooting an arrow. "Someone..." As soon as he said, the apprentice realized that the voice could not be penetrated by the wind. "Can you light up a little more, Sauron?"

The ring has different opinions: "You can slip over quietly. This is your specialty."

"I'm not a scout," Uriel replied in surprise, "Why should you hide your tracks?"

"It's true. I forgot that it's your best bet. Even if you stand under the eaves on a sunny day, some people will be poured by the rain."

The apprentice was speechless. "Okay, I'll do it myself." He waved his hand and ignited the flame of the magic.

The warm light radiates and leaps among the ice. This is much clearer than the target of a sunny day.

But the other party had no response. Something was wrong. Uriel immediately extinguished the flames and turned around and hid behind the mountain wall.

"What?" The ring was a beat slower.

Very suddenly, the ground began to collapse. The frozen soil shattered silently, as if it was empty inside, without any filling, and only a layer of skin stood. The snow mixed with mud and sand fell, falling into the bottomless rift.

Snow foam splashed, and Uriel sneezes. "Mysterious Land." He mumbled while rubbing his nose.

『It's that's it.『Look, the village is below』

He climbed down the cliff, and the frozen rocks formed steps, scattered on the side walls. This was a dangerous road, steep and smooth, but enough for mysterious creatures to pass through. But are the people in the village all mysterious creatures and no mortals? He crawled and thought.

Halfway through, his doubts were resolved. A long rope was loosened by the wind and floated in the air. The pulley that originally restricted it was only a pit. If people in the valley were traveling by rope, then this was probably the reason why the stone tower outpost was unattended.

The villages on the snow field have unique shapes and are not strange in their location. Rows of hemispherical buildings are compactly adjacent to each other. They are white, smooth, regular, and integrated, with neither doors nor windows nor openings, shining with the frost and snow shell.

But Ulier believes that they do not belong to humans.

"I'm not even as big as an ice brick." The apprentice said softly, "No wonder they treat the hills as whistle towers. Is this a village of giants?"

"Snowmen can't live in groups"

There are not only snowmen on the tundra. Naidiya warned her apprentice how dangerous the mysterious creation of the witch is, and she even needs the help of the witches in the association to pass through. Naturally, Uriel did not bother the other party. He had a way to hide himself in his dream and did not have to worry about the snowmen's attack. Moreover, after finding Joey, he had an anchor point, and the dream would give him more convenience.

"I heard that the Frost Giant tribe also lives in the snow field. This is more like their residence."

"I'm glad you didn't hear it from me."

Uriel ignored it and went straight to the center of the road. At least the space could make me more conspicuous. "Is anyone there?"

He didn't expect a quick response. For the giant, the normal volume of human beings is no louder than that of mosquitoes. But as soon as he finished speaking, he responded. With a click, an arrow penetrated into the snow and was nailed not far away.

"No one." The instructor replied coldly, "You'd better turn around."

The apprentice suddenly remembered the situation when they first met. "I'm not the Silver Song Knight." Uriel turned to look for the source of sound, "So don't always drive me away."

"You shouldn't be here."

"I met Nadiya. I had also been exposed to divine relics in Mortus before. There are not only coincidences here."

The instructor didn't bother him and hit the point: "Do you ask her where we are?"

"I want to know what you are here for!" Confusion has been in Uriel's mind for a long time. "Besides, where is this place? Where is Parsul? Are you with you?"

There was a silence. "Go back, Ulier." Parsul's voice passed through the soft snow pile. Although he did not show up, Ulier could hear her tired. "Some things are too difficult to explain, involving the mysterious class and Heather... You are a missionary, a child, and there is no need to waste time on mysterious knowledge that you will never use in this life."

"We can tell long stories or talk while walking, without delaying the trip." The apprentice insisted.

This time there was a brief silence. For a moment, he thought he could communicate with her honestly, just like when he was in the snow forest on the border of Alanwo.

But Parsul refused. "No, no. Heather wouldn't allow me to reveal too much... Joey? Let him leave as soon as possible, after nightfall, it's not safe here."

"Wait there." The instructor said so to Uriel.

Parsul raised his voice: "I've had enough! You always sing the opposite tune with me, is it interesting?"

"Work your brain, woman! There are no ziplines, cliffs are as slippery as mirrors. Or can you let him grow spider legs?"

Their quarrels weakened. Uriel turned his head to observe the ice wall, and suddenly realized that its wind-eroded stairs were actually very large, and at the bottom of the valley, there was no hope of climbing. Fortunately, I could leave my dreams, otherwise I would have to be trapped here. After all, the residents here probably wouldn't be able to use this thing.

At this time, at the top of the building closest to him, a piece of ice brick was pushed out of the wall, sliding down in a curve, and finally fell on the stone with a bang. Through the gap, fire and faint smoke could be seen.

They were in that room. The apprentices tried to get close, without waiting for a second arrow to warn. After all, they were fully capable of attacking as I climbed down the cliff…we actually had room for conversation.

As soon as Uriel walked closer, the front of the igloo scattered, revealing the internal space and the only opening. Snowflakes covered him. The apprentice wiped his face and shook his hat. When he and his mentor got in, the ice flew behind him to fill the gap.

"As far as I know, the Frost Giant's houses are all disposable," Sauron wrote in a hidden corner.

Uriel moved his fingers slightly and hid his finger ring in the fur of the gloves. If they were taught to see it, there would be nothing to talk about next.

The room was warm and a bonfire was burning in the center, surrounded by thick fur. The elf saint of Celestial Forest held a skinned thunderbird in his hand, and the fat turned golden under the flames. She casually rotated her wrist. The instructor turned around and sat opposite her, pressing a long dagger under the boots. Uriel noticed that there was no sign of bows and arrows in the room.
To be continued...
