[Slow Wear] Assassin System

Yes, touch there, I'll show you a big baby

In the dark and narrow corridor, the only light source comes from the crystal in the hands of the guide.

The young king walked second, followed by two of his subordinates.

This section of the road is very dangerous, the stone and wood inlaid are suspended in the air, the pure wooden handrails have been rotten, and the load-bearing columns supporting the weight have also experienced vicissitudes of life. Only those flints that have lost their energy can be vaguely seen - in the distant past , this staircase is the way to heaven decorated with bright stones.

The stairs were not narrow at first, but due to the decay, the area where people can stay is very small at this time. The empty tower is hidden in the darkness, and the prayer room that looks like an ant nest not far away can be vaguely seen along the faint light source.

They are all human... no, it should be said, they are all walking corpses.

Maybe they were just ordinary people who knelt at the feet of the gods and prayed before the doomsday, but after the fall of the sun, there was no light to isolate the black plague, and everyone was infected and crowded in the prayer room waiting to die.

The rustling sounds of rats and insects were particularly obvious in the darkness, and Baldr looked back at the prayer room.

"Turn left." The guide's voice was calm and low. He walked silently, as if he was used to lurking in the dark

.

Balder followed his footsteps and steadily climbed up another floor. He looked at the back of the leader and couldn't help thinking.

How can there be such a person?How did mother know him?

The Queen Mother is indeed weak and naive, but her vigilance is not weak. Her trust will only be given to those who have been with her the longest... Yes, this is the standard that the Queen Mother judges good and bad people.

However, it is obviously impossible for mercenaries to stay permanently in the capital...

Then there is only the last one left, he is the mother's blood relative, and the blood of the Bolun family flows in his veins - Bolun is the queen mother's natal family, one of the best nobles in the empire.

Baldr stared at the back of the guide, and was a little surprised to find that his figure was similar to his own, and there shouldn't be too much age difference between them.

A young mercenary who is used to lurking in the dark.

Will there be such a child in a noble family?Or is he a child abandoned by the family?

"It's almost here." The guide stopped moving forward, and he raised the light source in his hand, "The passage of the holy pavilion is above, and the roadblock cannot be opened, so let's go directly to the last floor, I will go up first, and you will climb up with the rope. "

Baldr heard the gasp of surprise from his subordinates, he raised his head, and was also shocked by the Zenith.

At the top of the stairs is a combination of reliefs and murals, which should depict the scene of the Kingdom of God, and the door leading to the Holy Pavilion is hidden among the layers of clouds.

The black figure leaped up from the stairs nimbly, he was as fast as the wind, quickly borrowed strength between the roadblock steps, and grabbed the door frame of the Holy Pavilion with one hand.

This place is tens of meters high, and there are no safeguards around!

The mercenary fished himself into the door, and then the rope tied with the crystal light source hung down from above.

"Come on." His voice came from the darkness, a little hoarse, "Don't be afraid to fall, otherwise you won't be able to get up."

-----

The door to the basement of the church was pushed open again.

The gatekeeper glanced: "People from Saint Sea?"

The woman who walked out gave him an affirmative answer.

The gatekeeper was surprised: "Did you leave so soon? Are you alone?"

"I have something to do." Vera said and strode away.

Behind her was the market and her companions, soft and bright, and she had to go.

Vera returned the same way, and soon came to the door of the church, where walking corpses wandered, like countless souls drowned in the darkness.

The sound of hoofbeats sounded, and a tall horse approached with a snort.

"Bai Shuang...you are back." Vera stroked Aiqi, "I'm sorry, I have to work hard on you again this time."

She got on her horse and headed towards Saint Loren.

Fenrir will not only look for her, Fenrir has countless vicious dogs, as far as she knows, there are dozens of them, and these are the dark survivors who are willing to work for him, the real outlaws.

The forces that support their survival in this world are all paranoid and ferocious. Some hope that all the sun wheels will fall, some are eager to steal the sun wheels and kill all the people of light, and more people just enjoy killing and madness. When they were away, Fenrir was their confidant and leader.

No one is happy in this dark realm, and how many, even with reason, are as hateful as she is?How many people will take action this time?

Wei La didn't know, all she had to do now was to identify the authenticity and take revenge.

-----

Miao Xuan once came to St. Loren's Holy Pavilion. That time, no one followed him, so he simply flew all the way, climbed directly from the outer wall to this commanding height, and then saw an empty attic.

Nothing, nothing left.

So far, Miao Xuan does not know whether the sun disc is matter or energy. When the sun disc is flickering, it has substance, but once the sun disc sinks, it will disappear completely, as if it melted.

And now, Miao Xuan returned to this empty attic with the research team.

Baldr lit up the crystal that he carried with him, and he held up the bright light source to observe every corner of the holy pavilion. The mage took out the scroll professionally and started rubbing the murals. As for the knight - he should have guards. Responsibility, although he stared at Miao Xuan the whole time.

Miao Xuan looked at the mural along the line of sight of the monarch. The main character in the mural was a figure surrounded by circles and radiating lines.

This time, his body did not receive an orthodox education, and most of the history he learned came from books and myths, and he knew nothing about the secrets of the royal family, so that he could not interpret these large murals.

"See anything?" Miao Xuan asked, "They depict the God of Light?"

"That's true." Baldr explained without hesitation at all, "The half of this is describing how the God of Light lifts the sun wheel—there are ancient texts, and they still need to be interpreted."

He held the light source and walked past the ancient murals, gently brushing the dust from the raised words.

The light source turned to the other side, illuminating the other half of the mural.

Miao Xuan saw another image similar to a god, except that there was no radiating light circle around this light god, but a circle-shaped sun disc rising from the forehead of the human figure.

"Then what is this God of Light doing?" Miao Xuan asked, "Creating the sun wheel?"

"Yes." Baldr affirmed, and he groped for the text on the relief, "The text here is almost corroded and weathered... Only rubbings can be handed over to scholars for identification."

Miao Xuan tapped the system: Tong'er.

The system tacitly said: [I have written it all down! 】

After reading all the murals, Baldr walked to the high platform in the center of the Holy Pavilion—this is where the sun wheel was once placed.

"Maybe it's praising the light..." Baldr held up the light source and looked at the relief on the high platform. He reached out and brushed the ash in a circle, and slowly touched the center, "What is this?"

He brought the light source closer to the center of the high platform, and Miao Xuan was surprised to find that there seemed to be something shining there, glowing with familiar colors.

This change aroused the surprise of the mage and the knight at the same time, and the mage immediately recognized the glowing mineral: "Folija gemstone?"

Frigga gemstone, a special precious mineral, no one knows where it was born.

Miao Xuan's colored contact lenses were polished with this thing, but he didn't see this thing at all when he came last time.

Baldr was also very puzzled: "Frigalite? How could it grow here?"

He stretched out his hand to touch it, but blood suddenly seeped out of Baldur's palm, and the breath of blood diffused and dripped on the gemstone.

"Your Majesty!" The knight thought that the king's hand was cut by a sharp stone, and hurriedly said, "Do you want to collect it? Please let me do it."

"Don't come here!" Balder leaned over the high platform and ordered in a low voice, "It's sucking my blood at a very slow speed... It doesn't mean to hurt me."

Miao Xuan was also surprised by this change, but at this moment, the small ball of light in the purple smoke in his sea of ​​consciousness began to deform—it was pitifully flat at first, but now it slowly bulged and became rounder.

The system squatted outside the purple mist in amazement: [It's rising...]

Miao Xuan hurriedly took the thing out of the purple smoke, and the small light ball began to jump sideways at high frequency, showing a sense of faith.

What else stimulated this thing?

Miao Xuan looked at the magnificent Foliga gem in the center of the high platform, could it be it?

If you're not sure, give it a try... Miao Xuan stepped out of the shadows.

"Stop! Don't come over!" The knight raised his buckler and tried to stop him.

Miao Xuan lightly pressed on his shield, although the movement was light, but the aggressiveness could not be ignored: "I didn't see this gem last time when I came here, there is no need for you to stop me."

The knight knows that he is invincible, but why is he willing to back down?The mage also stopped rubbing and tried to come up to help.

"Stand back." Balder said suddenly, "Let him come over."

Miao Xuan strode up the steps while holding down the excited little ball of light in the spiritual sea.

The Frigga gemstone reflects an intoxicating turquoise in the dark environment, and the blood continuously overflows from Baldur's hand drop by drop, and seeps into the gemstone bit by bit—it doesn't even change its color, and it still looks so clear and beautiful .

The system looked at the stone in astonishment: [This gemstone is so big and round... Wait, how did it cut the skin? 】

Miao Xuan took a closer look and found that there was no wound on Balder's palm at all, the blood directly seeped into his skin and overflowed, and was then absorbed by the gemstone, which was very strange.

"Can you move your finger away?" Miao Xuan had already walked across from Baldr, he looked down at this huge gem, which was as thick as an adult man's fist, and he wanted to touch it unexpectedly. impulse.

The little ball of light bounced more happily, as if urging him.

"I don't think it will do me any harm." Balder frowned, "The truth I want to pursue...maybe in it—"

Balder's voice stopped abruptly, and he raised his hand: "It doesn't absorb my blood anymore...it's hot."

The naked eye could not see the change of the gemstone, but Miao Xuan's intuition was peaceful, so he directly reached out to touch it, and then he also bled.

It's also the way the blood oozes from the skin, not only does it not hurt, it even feels warm.

Miao Xuan: "..."

Balder "..."

The atmosphere was extremely awkward for a while, and the two looked at each other in blank dismay. After a long time, Balder asked dryly, "Is it hot?"

Miao Xuan: "...Indeed."

The knights and mages who were watching were even more nervous. This strange stone can absorb human blood, and no one knows what it is.

"Please let me try it!" the mage worried, "If it needs blood, so can ours!"

This thing is indeed harmless to himself and Baldr, but no one knows whether it will hurt others. Miao Xuan always feels that the blood of the mage will not bring any good things.

"unnecessary."

"do not come."

Contrary to Miao Xuan's expectations, the young king standing opposite him also chose to refuse.

The two looked at each other awkwardly again until the gem stopped absorbing Miao Xuan's blood.

This beautiful gem seemed to be full of blood, it began to become hotter and hotter, and it burst out with a soft light. When the stone was too hot to touch, the light it emitted completely illuminated the room. Holy Pavilion.

Light is a symbol of safety for the aborigines. When the light appeared, both the mage and the knight heaved a sigh of relief, and even had a bit of joy on their faces.

However, at this moment, a sudden change occurred.

The altar where the sun wheel was placed vibrated violently, and then shattered centered on the gemstone. Miao Xuan shouted: "Stand back!"

Baldr was extremely agile, as if he had expected this, his movements were only a little slower than Miao Xuan's, but both of them hit an invisible barrier when they retreated.

The mage and knight pounced forward, but were also blocked by this barrier.

"His Majesty!!!"

The loud noise exploded and fell down the building together with the stones. Miao Xuan had no way to retreat, and the barrier behind him was still very smooth. He could only fall down the corridor under the altar with his fellow sufferers.

The excellent night vision ability allowed him to see that the corridor seemed to be covered with murals, but it was about to turn into cakes, so Miao Xuan chose to destroy the ancient monuments without hesitation—his blade cut into the stone wall fiercely, and at the same time One hand did not forget to catch Balder.

Papa Lan's knife was really not a common martial arts weapon, and it was not damaged under such a huge impact. After a harsh friction sound, the two steadied themselves on the stone wall.

"That's blocking magic." Balder said, "The power of the Frigg gem was already triggered when it was shining, and I didn't even notice it."

Miao Xuan didn't know much about the magic of the light department: "Block magic? What is that?"

"One of the magic circles used by the sun to protect itself." Balder said, "If someone approaches the sun with ulterior motives, the sun will use blocking magic to protect itself."

It turned out to be like this...Miao Xuan thought of St. Amber's sun disc, no wonder he never saw Fenrir there.

"But the sun has already fallen. Could it be that the blocking magic is the power of the Frigga gem?" Baldr's voice was full of doubts, "And we are within the protected area, why did the ground collapse instead?"

Miao Xuan looked up at the entrance of the corridor where the light was faintly shining from the high place, and then looked down at the bottomless ground: "Go down first, isn't it time to talk about this, is there a rope? Put your knife on the wall ——You are also a knight of light, you should be able to do it, right? Then tie the rope."

"Of course." The young king said after a moment of silence before saying, "I brought a rope, but my weapon can't pierce the inner wall of the stone masonry."

Miao Xuan was helpless: "...then you can use my dagger and insert it deeper. You should have the strength."

Balder looked up at the mercenary, his hand was firmly grasping his arm like cast iron, he clasped his hand behind his back, and asked, "Where is your dagger?"

The arm under the palm seemed to be stiff for a moment, and its owner's voice came muffled from above: "Put it in my lower back."
