[029] Leah's Secret
"Oh, no need," Chen Ran smiled, with a bright face, "Thank you for your gift. I have always been a person who is easy to satisfy. I will treat you as giving me the labor fee tonight, so you don't have to be polite."
Feeling that time could no longer be delayed, Chen Ran waved his hand and purified a demon soul again, and shouted to his subordinates: "Smash this altar for me! Move faster!"
"Shameless human! You want to take you..." An angry roar came from the side of Nebula.
"I never believe that there will be any good results for cooperation with the devil. Dear Lord Demon, the moonlight is beautiful tonight. I wish you a good night's sleep..." Chen Ran bowed to the side of Xingyun with a gentlemanly, turned around, and the Holy Purification took away a piece of demon soul again.
Gravel splashed, and a large number of warriors began to struggle to destroy everything on the altar. The border of the portal was smashed, and the witch formation on the altar was also destroyed. The nebula became smaller at a visible speed until it disappeared.
The bloody moon hung high in the middle of the night sky, staring alone at everything that happened in the lower world.
The city shrouded in the aura of the Demon Realm lost the solemnity of the past, and the surrounding environment seemed to have become much clearer at once. The blood in Chen Ran's body finally calmed down.
He finally breathed a sigh of relief and wiped the sweat beads from his forehead.
"Okay, I can finally rest for a while. I'm so tired," Chen Ran kicked away a few gravels under his feet, and sat down to the ground with exhaustion, watching the warriors cheering excitedly for this great victory.
The elder, who had made his face covered in mud in the chaos magic, ran over excitedly, and shed tears all the way: "God envoy, we have succeeded, the devils have been repelled by us, and the demonic fire clan has also been punished as it deserves. We can finally return to this city of origin and restore our former civilization!"
"Well, my mission is completed," Chen Ran murmured, responding to it, and he focused on the dozen hand-thorn and secret books thrown under his feet. He didn't have time to read them carefully just now, but now he leisurely opened several books and read them.
What he picked up in his hand is a mage named "Famar", which records the ice-type magic release techniques he is good at, including advanced magic such as "Frost Star", "Ice Stardust Explosion", "Blizzard", and "Ice Crystal Storm". Obviously, this is the work of a great magician who is proficient in ice-type magic.
Open another book, and another secret book named "Glenn", which records powerful sword skills such as "Star Sword", "Reverse Demon Wuji Kill", and "Wu Shuang Reverse Wheel Slash".
In addition, there are assassin's secrets, archer's secrets, and knight's secrets. Anyway, there are more than ten books. Although I can't understand them, they all look amazing. Needless to say, they are all stored in the space ring.
"Huh!"
When Chen Ran came to his senses, he felt that something was missing. Suddenly he remembered that Leah had disappeared at some point.
In the past few days, in order to ensure Leah's safety, Chen Ran has always kept her by her side. She usually leaves the fights to her brothers. Although she has less busy communication these days, the feelings between each other when she meets her have become deeper.
Chen Ran felt that after everything was done, he would take Leah out of this haunted forest and find an opportunity to break through the vague relationship between them.
"Whoever saw where Leah went?" Chen Ran couldn't help but ask the people nearby, and someone should have seen Leah's whereabouts.
A tribal warrior immediately raised his hand and replied, "Sir, just as we were stabilizing the situation and smashing the altar, I saw Miss Leah walking towards the temple alone."
"Oh, I got it, I'll go and have a look," Chen Ran walked down the altar and walked towards the lonely and desolate temple.
...
It is hard to imagine that there will be such a magnificent temple in such a remote mountain forest.
It has a ceiling of more than 40 meters high, with some ancient patterns painted. Several rows of towering stone pillars support this temple exuding a mysterious atmosphere.
It was so quiet inside that it was rarely unattended. The corners here were covered with moss, and occasionally the "squeaking" sounds from mice were heard.
An empty footsteps sounded in the temple, and echoes spread throughout every corner of the room. Leah walked in the quiet temple with a torch, heading towards the depths.
There are many majestic statues standing in the temple, these are famous gods in this continent. The base of each statue is written with an ancient text. Leah looked over it one by one until it stopped under the statue of the ice goddess Sgarti.
If you look closely, you will find that the only words under this statue are scattered and unconventional. Each character is active and there is a gap of a character, which can move like a puzzle game.
Lea walked forward and began to reorder the text.
It took not too long for Leah to skillfully piece together the words into a sentence.
"The inner demons are in chaos, things are hard to predict, and ice and snow are coming. I use my power to give people who really need help to free themselves from the entanglement of the shadow of fate..."
After finishing the piece together, Leah looked at the last small gap, reached out her hand, and pulled off a necklace he had been hanging from her neck.
On the necklace, it is not a jewel or jade hanging, but a very inconspicuous piece of stone, with a very ordinary character on the front.
Lea pulled off the lanyard of the necklace and put the fragment into the gap, which was neither big nor small, just filled the small gap.
A light suddenly flashed in the statue of the ice goddess Sgarti's statue, and it became dimmed in an instant, as if nothing had happened. However, a sound of moving the stone door of the mechanism came from the wall not far away. After Lea found out, she ran towards the secret door without hesitation.
Inside the secret door was a straight corridor leading to the depths of the underworld, and there was even a clear sound of water dripping. Leah walked carefully towards the ground on a torch.
For more than ten minutes, she walked to the end of the corridor. There was a thick stone table with an exquisite small box on it. Lea ran forward excitedly and couldn't wait to open the box.
A blue light shone the dark stone chamber, and the transparent blue and white light shone Lea's face, making her look thrilling and beautiful. She excitedly held the pure and flawless ridge-shaped gem with both hands, and finally breathed a sigh of relief.
"Sgarty's Eye, I finally got you, I finally found you..."
Lea kept repeating the sentence, and two crystal tears fell from the corners of her eyes, which shone across her face and fell quietly to the ground.
She gently placed the gem in her heart and closed her eyes peacefully, as if she had found the home of her soul.
