Chapter 32 The Ancient Gate
Longcrest Snow Mountain, below the Seven Heavens Statue.
When Ningzhe finally arrived here under the escort of the eagle, he discovered that Albedo had long since disappeared.
However, there are marks left by him on the ground, which extend all the way and point to the west.
After gently patting the eagle that had worked so hard all the way, Ningzhe gave it a dose of mental buff, and then let it go.
Seeing this majestic eagle soaring in the sky again, Ningzhe smiled with great satisfaction, and then followed Albedo's mark and walked over.
At the same time, in front of the weird gate.
Abedo half-bowed in front of the door, holding a ring-shaped accessory in his hand, looking serious and not knowing what he was thinking.
"Hey...is this the ancient gate you were talking about? It doesn't look like it was made in recent hundreds of years."
At this time, Ningzhe followed the marks along the way and came over. As soon as he entered, he saw this simple and grand door.
"...Yes, the material of this gate blocking the entrance of the cave is unknown, but the casting technology alone does not look like the casting methods of all countries in the world."
Hearing Ningzhe's voice, Abedo stood up and handed the ring accessory in his hand to Ningzhe.
"This is...?"
Although Ningzhe was a little confused, he still took it.
"Try to use your mental power to check this thing."
Abedo shook his head slightly and didn't explain anything more. He just said this.
"Spiritual power..."
Hearing this, Ningzhe did not hesitate and directly injected his spiritual power into this accessory.
However, at the moment of injection, a few lines of words appeared in his mind.
[When the Black Dragon and the Wind Dragon fight to the death to determine the winner]
[When the blood of decay paints the valley floor, which is as white as ashes, red]
【........................I did not die with the abandoned capital】
"This passage..."
These lines of words only appeared in his mind for a moment, but he remembered them so deeply in his heart.
"Did you also see these two lines?"
Seeing Ningzhe's reaction, Abedo nodded thoughtfully. Then he looked at the gate and slowly said: "Based on the content of these two lines, it is not difficult for us to guess that it actually tells the story of that year.
The battle between Tevalin, the Dragon of the East Wind, and Dulin, the Demonic Dragon."
Having said this, Abedo paused and looked a little strange.
"It's just that the puzzling thing is...the ancient country should have been destroyed long ago, and there is no chance to see this war, right?"
"Wait...you said, there are two lines?"
Ningzhe was stunned for a moment and seemed to have no reaction.
"Indeed, is the content you have here different from what I got?"
"That's right...I still have a third line of text here."
Ningzhe took a long breath, looked at the ring-shaped accessory in his hand, and said hesitantly: "...but the third line is not complete, I can only see that [I did not die with the waste city]
This sentence."
"I didn't die with the waste city...what does this mean?"
Hearing Ningzhe's words, Abedo subconsciously frowned and spoke with some confusion.
"According to my guess... [I] here may have a very deep relationship with the ancient country, either a person who survived, or something with vitality..."
Ningzhe played with the ring accessories in his hand, his eyes gradually deepening.
"If it was left by man, then I can only think of the [Foreign Fighter] Imon Loka in the story. But judging from the information I have collected, this possibility is not high, because time has passed.
For such a long time, he would not be able to survive until now as an ordinary person."
"And if it's something alive..."
Having said this, Ningzhe raised his head, his expression extremely serious.
"Albedo, that [white tree]... do you still have an impression?"
"The White Tree...is it the tree recorded in the ancient journal that completely changed [Shar Fendenir]?"
Abedo thought for a while and came up with his answer.
"Yes, I originally thought that this white tree was completely annihilated after being pierced by the spike that fell from the sky, but based on the information above, it seems that it is not that simple."
He affirmed Albedo's answer, but Ningzhe changed the topic again and said: "If it is the [White Tree] that survives, based on the previous content... then it will only be the blood of the demon dragon Dulin.
It wakes up, which is probably not a good thing..."
"Are you saying that it is possible that the reborn white tree will be polluted?"
Hearing Ningzhe's speculation, Albedo's brows furrowed even deeper.
If it is really what Ningzhe said, then the hidden danger in the snow-capped mountains is too great... That was enough to protect the entire country hundreds of years ago. If it was contaminated...
"This is just speculation."
Ningzhe shook his head, but his facial expression did not relax. Even in his opinion, this possibility was very high.
The blood of the demon dragon Dulin can corrode even the Dragon of the East Wind... So what about a seriously injured white tree?
Not to mention that after the First World War, the blood of the dragon almost dyed the entire land red, and the ominous and strange blood seeped into the land...
boom------
At this moment, the door that had been closed suddenly opened by itself, revealing the way to go deeper.
"..."
Seeing this sudden change, Ningzhe and Abedo looked at each other, then nodded and walked towards the door in unison.
If their guess is correct, then...they must go down this road.
...
At the same time, Mianlong Valley.
Dadalia returned to the Fools' Camp, and at this time, except for the civilian staff, almost everyone was fully armed and on standby in the camp.
The composition of this force is very complete, including Thunder Hammer soldiers, Wind Fist soldiers, Water Gun soldiers and other advance team members, as well as elite troops such as debt collectors.
"Well...prepared very well."
Seeing that his men had prepared all the supplies and ordnance early, Dadalia was very satisfied.
"According to the plan... Yabulons, you will lead most of the team to the east to explore. All actions must be kept confidential. If you encounter adventurers who get in the way on the way, kill them directly without leaving any clues."
"As for the remaining people, follow me to the south and explore the cave."
"do you understand?"
Dadalia changed his usual temperament and became stern, with a sense of oppression that perfectly suited his status as an executive.
"Understood! I will definitely complete the mission of Mr. [Master]!"
Debt collector Yabrons bowed respectfully and spoke with great seriousness.
According to the original plan, their team should be led by two debt collectors... It was a pity that another debt collector, Petrovich, received a temporary assignment from the executive officer and left the camp.
But it doesn't matter...the strength of those adventurers is far inferior to that of the elite fools.
"Very good. Then... let's go, all for the sake of the [Queen]."
